Chapter Ninety-Three: Extreme Defeat
After a hasty exchange of information, Tinas left the medical camp almost as if she had run away, and ran back to the command center in despair.
Before she could decide how to spit on the one who liked the new and hated the old - in addition to being obsessed with cultivation in this life, Tinas was fighting and killing, and those who could do it would never move her mouth, searching her intestines and scraping her stomach all the way, but she couldn't find a suitable word to describe such a hateful person.
Before he had time to think about it, in the dim night, the deputy who came up with a somewhat flustered face came up, and as soon as he saw Tinasi, he came up like a life-saving straw.
"Report to the battalion leader, the Thunder Demon They just sent a message that they found that the demon dwarf reinforcements are stationed in the Demon Eye Fortress, the specific military strength is unknown, but it contains troll dwarves, or those whose strength is close to the troll dwarves, and there are ...... Hundreds!"
"Hundreds, troll dwarves?" cried Tinath.
Troll dwarves belong to the absolute elite class of demon dwarves, comparable to the Terran archmage.
According to the intelligence of the Western Regions that have been fighting with the demon dwarves for so many years, even the lowest-level twenty-four bearded troll dwarves are the only existence in the clan, and they are by no means radish and cabbage, when did they become so worthless, and they can dispatch hundreds of people at once.
Originally, the demon dwarves had an army of 100,000, and these troops were enough to sweep through the surrounding noble lords, and now reinforcements had arrived, but the most terrifying thing was the troll dwarves, which were hundreds of troll dwarves.
Could it be that the demon dwarves want to completely exterminate the Southern Regions?
Troll dwarves are good at sneak attacks, magic crystal javelins can be thrown hundreds of meters away, powerful enough to penetrate most of the fifth-level shields, within its range of five hundred meters, the great mage can not guarantee his absolute safety, only under the close protection of the sixth-order magician, the great mage can deal with the troll dwarf with peace of mind.
Magicians are good at attacking, and magicians are good at defending, and the combination of the two is seamless, but the southern regions, which are rich in magicians, have never recruited magicians, nor have they ever been ready to fight with demon dwarves, and in the entire southern regions, I am afraid that not a single sixth-order magician can be found.
At the time of the fall of the MONOCULUS Fortress, the Imperial Military Department intended to send it
If you let the sixth-level great mage face the troll dwarf alone, who dies or who lives, sometimes it depends on luck, and the most feared thing is that in a demon dwarf army, there are troll dwarves secretly hidden, and when the great mage arrives to cast spells, they suddenly attack and sneak attack, which is their usual three indiscriminate methods.
"Do they see clearly?"
Tinas knew that whether it was the Thunder Demon, the God of Destruction, or the Lich King, they were all the best reconnaissance experts in the Southern Regions Mobile Battalion, and there was no reason to be mistaken, but she still asked without giving up.
"It has been repeatedly confirmed. ”
"Let them retreat ten miles, ensure safety, and continue to monitor the ......" Tinas gritted her teeth and hesitated for a while before she said angrily: "Send a purple alert signal, and let the head of the Imperial Palace, the head of the Eureka department, and the heads of all the combat groups immediately converge at the joint command center in the main city." ”
"Yes, Camp Leader. In addition, the military department has just gathered the information that the three major noble support teams have arrived in the main city, and the remaining 22 noble leaders will form a coalition army and arrive before noon tomorrow, and in addition, the 200,000 troops of the third army are still 200 miles away from the main city of Bamandy and are expected to arrive at dawn. ”
"Well, it's just in time......" Tinas breathed a sigh of relief.
It didn't make much difference whether the Third Army Corps was early or late, but the reinforcements of the three nobles came too timely.
Because the empire has strict restrictions on the noble private guard, the total number of people must not exceed two hundred, therefore, in the noble private army, there will be no other than magicians, such as the three major families, there are no magicians below level five in the private guard, and even the big magicians have attracted a lot.
This time, the three major families have all suffered heavy losses in the Talisman Forest, and this time they will definitely not make up for it.
Dealing with the troll dwarves, the 200,000 army will not help the situation, but the noble reinforcements will definitely be a long drought and nectar and timely rain.
After a pause, Tinas called out to the deputy head who was about to leave, gritted her teeth and said, "Turn on the amethyst communication, I want to talk to the chief directly." ”
The head of the general is the supreme leader of the entire royal strategic mobile battalion, who has never shown up, and no one knows his identity, but as long as the leaders of each domain battalion believe that an incident has occurred that threatens the foundation of the empire, no matter when and where, they can report directly to it through the exclusive Amethyst communication.
After the fall of the Demon Eye Fortress, the Imperial Palace expressed close attention, but the Southern Regions Military Department thought that it could handle it, after all, more than half of the Empire's level 10 magicians were in the Southern Regions, and they asked for help before the battle started, which inevitably made the already declining Southern Regions even more gossip.
But now, hundreds of troll dwarves have gathered in one place, which is unprecedented, and in Tinath's opinion, whether or not they can hold it in the future, the situation has been out of the control of the Southern Regions.
When a new round of chickens, flying dogs and jumping in the Southern Regions was set off and gradually spread to the Imperial Palace, in the Snake Valley a hundred kilometers away, Lin Lei lived a life of intoxication with demons.
The fourth-level magic arcane array, if it is really the same as the fourth-level magic, it is all painful, Lin Lei spent a full day and a night to keep the thousands of arcane lines firmly in his heart, as for the actual drill, it has not yet begun.
Touching the empty belly, Lin Lei stood up, took the wooden stick beside him, and it was time to hunt again.
After catching a few black snakes, those ghostly guys seemed to know that Lin Lei had bad intentions towards them, and now those snakes, as long as they felt Lin Lei's breath from a distance, they didn't wait to get closer, and they ran away without a trace.
I saw a black snake thicker than the mouth of the bowl from a distance, enough to eat for two days, but unfortunately it was dozens of meters apart, and at this distance, Lin Lei's javelin could not be thrown accurately. It was easy to sneak within twenty meters, and just about to throw the javelin, the snake was on alert and ran away without looking back.
Lin Lei was stunned for a moment, took out the golden knife, walked around, broke the branches in front of him from time to time, and soon found his favorite target, cut down a section, and found vines...... Half a day later, a shoddy-made, but staggeringly tense longbow had been formed.
The Lin family originally had an equipment business, and Lin Lei had been exposed to it since he was a child, and he was extremely studious, making a simple bow and arrow was just an idle matter.
Sharpened a few wooden arrows with a branch, Lin Lei tried to shoot it, not bad, although he still couldn't shoot accurately, but compared to the javelin, the accuracy was much better, shoot a few more times, there will always be a time when the blind cat meets a dead mouse, anyway, black snakes are everywhere, scare away one and find another one.
After a small half a day, the fragrant snake meat went down to the stomach.
After eating and drinking, Lin Lei picked up the shoddy bow and arrow, but the bowstring was extremely thick, and fell into deep thought.
Judging from the situation of shooting the black snake just now, his accuracy is not bad. Thanks to the enhancement of the Void Bone's physique, as well as the assistance of superb mental power to aim, if he exercises for a few more days, Lin Lei will be sure to shoot the demon dwarf within 100 meters.
The skin of the demon dwarf has superb magic defense ability, the first and second level of magic, the damage caused to the demon dwarf is not high, the magic above the third level, and it consumes too much magic power, if the bow and arrow can be attached to the "blessing of the fire god", directly into the body of the demon dwarf and then explode, Lin Lei believes that even if it is a demon dwarf with more than six whiskers, it is enough to kill in seconds.
Generally, the range of the bow and arrow is 100 meters, and the strong bow can still have a certain lethality within 200 meters, and if it is a special strong bow, it can shoot three or four hundred meters by means of hanging shooting.
That kind of bow is not something that ordinary people can pull, but Lin Lei's strength is much larger than that of ordinary people, and with the growth of the bones of nothingness, if you have a hellish exercise, your strength can be even better......
Thinking of this, Lin Lei had an idea in his heart, put down his bow and arrows, and sank into the mystical practice with all his heart.
Five days passed in the blink of an eye, and at dawn, with the mysteries flying in his hands, after a flash of magic light, the world in front of Lin Lei was slowly dyed with a light red color.
Or because the spiritual power is too strong, it is just the first time to show it, and the red world in Lin Lei's eyes is no longer a simple flat picture scroll, but on the basis of retaining the original vision, each item is dyed with a thick or light red.
Nodding with satisfaction, while the magic effect was still there, Lin Lei quickly climbed to the top of the tree and looked around. Unfortunately, I didn't find any strong fire elemental anywhere.
It seems that there should be no suitable location in this valley.
In an environment like the Rune Forest, it should be impossible to find a volcano or something, but it is said that the Rune Forest is full of magic crystal mines, and if you can find a small amount of fire element magic crystal mines, it can also be used for cultivation.
The magic power was about to run out, so Lin Lei had to jump off the tree, wait for a little magic power to slowly recover later, and then look elsewhere, as for when he could meet it, it would depend on his face.
When he jumped down, Lin Lei's gaze naturally turned downward, and in the afterglow of his vision, a sudden red light flashed, and Lin Lei was about to take a closer look, but his magic power had been completely exhausted, and his vision had returned to its normal appearance.
Lin Lei was a little annoyed that he was hanging in the distance, and he didn't look around first, fortunately, Lin Lei already knew the direction, it should be across the other side of the pool, or just on the opposite side of the pool, or a little farther away, the red light flashed away, and it was difficult to judge for a while.
But as long as the general direction is determined within this valley, although there is no magic induction, Lin Lei has a shameless stupid method.
With Lin Lei's current level of spiritual power, when cultivating, the sensing range of the spiritual world is about five meters, as long as he changes places all the way in the right direction to cultivate, he can always sense that place.
Unexpectedly, Lin Lei explored hundreds of meters in the direction he identified, but he couldn't find the place where the fire element was abnormally strong in his mind, not even a slightly abnormal place.
"No, something must have gone wrong......"
Lin Lei sat down and pondered for a while, his eyes lit up, ran to the edge of the pool, and jumped down with a plop.
The pool is not deep, the pool water under the sun is clear, the bottom can be seen, only two or three meters into the bottom, I saw a little reflection from the bottom of the pool, Lin Lei was happy in his heart, accelerated the dive, and dug it in a shining place with a golden knife, a ball slightly smaller than a fist, red like a fire translucent crystals exposed.
Lin Lei didn't have time to take a closer look, and after picking it up, he swam out of the water.
"Damn, this is, this is...... Special Niang's Fire Demon Crystal?" Lin Lei's eyes widened, looking at the magic crystal in his hand, and the boss swallowed the boss's saliva in his throat.
This is not "Special Niang's Fire Magic Crystal", the correct way to put it is a high-purity Fire Magic Crystal, and it is a "super-large high-purity Fire Magic Crystal", according to its volume, I am afraid that only the large Demon Source Machinery in the Western Regions can use it.
It's not that not many people want this magic crystal, but not many people can afford it.
The value of the magic crystal is determined by two criteria, one is the concentration and the other is the volume, and when determining the value of a magic crystal, the impact of volume on the value is much greater than the concentration.
The concentration of the magic crystal affects the time that the magic source equipment can run, and the volume of the magic crystal determines what kind of equipment it can match.
This is a bit abstract, for example, if the magic source equipment uses a high concentration of magic crystals, the number of times to replace the magic crystals is a little less, and the number of replacement times is a little higher, which is more troublesome.
The importance of high-concentration magic crystals lies in the battle, if the magic crystal energy is suddenly cut off, the opponent may seize the opportunity and kill it with one blow, and the use of high-concentration magic crystals can undoubtedly greatly reduce this danger.
The size of the magic crystal matched by the equipment is fixed, the magic crystal can be cut and polished when it is large, but it cannot be used at all if it is small.
In any magic crystal market, large-volume magic crystals, regardless of the concentration, are sought-after goods, how many you want, when the odd goods are habitable, they can even be auctioned at a price much higher than normal.
Lin Lei has not paid attention to the equipment market, and he doesn't know the specific value of this magic crystal, but it is definitely valuable, but it is certain.
However, no matter how valuable it is a mountain of gold and silver, it doesn't mean much to the current Lin Lei, what is worth Lin Lei's saliva is the attribute of the magic crystal, the fire attribute.
Magic crystal means an extremely high concentration of magic elements, but the nature of these magic elements is very stable, otherwise, thousands of years later, even if they are buried deep underground, they will have long been dissipated invisible.
Unless it is analyzed by special means, this condensed magic crystal will not dissipate for tens of thousands of years.
Only after the transformation of a large magic array, or the consumption of mental power to analyze, can the magic crystal become an active element for cultivation. The principle of the composition of the cultivation room is to transform the magic crystal into an active element through the analysis of a large magic array.
In the case of not converting the magic array, the magician himself uses mental power to analyze, and he can also convert the magic crystal into active elements, but the consumption of spiritual power is quite amazing, only above the level of the great magician, when the spiritual power is relatively abundant, it will be used for temporary emergency will do so.
Lin Lei did not transform the magic array, but he had the ability to recover the spirit of a pervert, which was beyond the reach of even a great magician, even if he completely analyzed this magic crystal into an active element, it was not too much of a burden.
For Lin Lei, spiritual power is a big rice bucket, as long as there is no shortage of food, spiritual power is equivalent to being inexhaustible.
"Hehe, haha, hahahahaha......"
Staring at the beautiful red and gorgeous magic crystal in his hand, Lin Lei ate and laughed, the louder he laughed, and the more he laughed, the more unscrupulous he became.
Using this kind of super-grade magic crystal with a high concentration and volume to supplement the magic power is a very, extreme, and extremely shameful act of a loser - you must know that the magic crystals used in the cultivation room are all leftovers from the magic source equipment, and the price is calculated by catties, compared with the piece in front of you, it is the difference between gold and ****.
But, who cares about it? The bottom of the pool is dotted with stars all over the pool, there are countless of them, and there are really more than ****.
It is said that the magic talisman forest is full of magic crystals, and Lin Lei has never been moved, but now, he believes it, and the special mother believes it completely.
