Chapter 768: Temporary Retreat

After this battle, Xia Qi confirmed one thing, that is, this civilization of Hussein Hassan does not seem to have such buildings as fortresses and cities.

And this obviously had a great impact on Xia Qi, who was the attacker.

Because then they would not be able to capture a fortress on the continent and base it as a forward base.

Xia Qi, who withdrew directly to the sea, first breathed a sigh of relief, and then his face became solemn, and he immediately signaled the medical soldiers on the ship to diagnose the soldiers.

On the force transport ship, the orc soldiers were affected by the side effects after being released from the frenzied state, and they instantly became languishing and looked very weak.

In a short period of time, the combat effectiveness is about to drop significantly.

However, Xia Qi didn't care much about this, and Hussein Hassan couldn't chase him to the sea anyway.

What he was more concerned about now was what had happened in the previous battle and why his orc legion had suddenly fallen into such a significant disadvantage.

The report of the medical soldiers was delivered to Xia Qi the day after they returned to the rear island base.

The report concludes that paralyzing toxins.

Xia Qi, who learned of this result, suddenly wrinkled his two eyebrows together.

How is this possible, at that time, the area that could be seen has been destroyed, and the orc soldiers still have 80% immunity provided by "survival of the fittest", it is impossible for such a wide range of situations to occur.

But soon, Xia Qi reacted.

Since it wasn't the little white flower, there were other poisonous plants in that area at that time!

"Whew-"

With a long breath, Xia Qi regained his mentality.

"Are the casualties counted?"

"It's still being counted."

"Speed up, and send it to me as soon as it's done."

The result of this battle, if judging from the results, Xia Qi was obviously overshadowed by Hussein Hassan, and the cost of casualties is not small.

However, from another point of view, Xia Qi also obtained more information through this battle, as well as some of the opponent's hole cards.

At the same time, after using the opponent's paralyzing toxin once, when the orc soldiers heal, they can obtain the effect of exemption from military service through the "survival of the fittest" project.

In other words, when he attacks again the next time, this move will basically be useless to him!

Hussein Hassan failed to deal a fatal blow directly to him after using this trick, so the opponent could not have a second chance.

This is also one of the main reasons why Xia Qi can correct his mentality so quickly.

And in a war of this level, momentary gains and losses are nothing at all, and only the one who has the last laugh is the winner!

Next, Xia Qi also planned to let his army rest for a period of time, Hussein Hassan's civilization was too special, and he needed more time to prepare for the battle afterward.

At the same time, the orc soldiers who have experienced a long period of madness also need a period of rest before they can recover.

And during this time, the casualty report of the orc legion was also quickly sent to Xia Qi's eyes.

After all, the immunity of the orc soldiers themselves is very strong, so the troops of the elephant people, the lion people, the rhinoceros people, and the minotaur people are relatively affected by the paralysis toxin.

Basically, when they withdrew to the coastal area, the impact of those paralyzing toxins on them was gradually revealed.

Therefore, most of the recruits at that time were some orcs with relatively weak physical fitness, among which kobolds and werewolves were the most.

It is also because of this that the casualties of the orc forces are mainly concentrated on the kobolds and werewolves.

In this battle, the kobold clan sent 12,000 troops, while the werewolf clan sent 8,050 troops.

According to the statistics reported after the battle, at the end of that battle, 1,372 kobold soldiers were killed and 2,119 were seriously wounded.

Werewolf soldiers were killed 676 and 1,241 seriously wounded.

The casualty figures of other ethnic groups are basically in the triple or even double digits.

As for the number of lightly injured soldiers, minor injuries are basically meaningless to orc soldiers.

Therefore, most of the orc legions do not waste time counting lightly injured soldiers, and only count the number of soldiers killed and seriously injured after each battle. At the same time, the orc units also have the recovery ability granted by the "super-speed regeneration" project, so under normal circumstances, even seriously injured soldiers, unless they are directly disabled, or as long as they are given time, they can recover as before.

It is also because of this that Xia Qi can still accept the loss of troops this time.

However, during this time, the loss in other aspects is a bit large.

Among them, medical resources and equipment, napalm bombs dropped in large quantities by goblin bombing units, and artillery shells consumed by giant elephant artillery units were the most.

Xia Qi, who probably has a lot in his heart, doesn't even want to read this report, because he is worried about reading too much.

He directly signaled to the officers under his command to turn around and find an opportunity to send it to the Ministry of Military Affairs, and after the verification, he sent it to the Ministry of Finance.

And during this period, in the depths of the continent covered with trees and vegetation, Hussein Hassan, who also received the front-line battle report, also felt a little solemn in his heart.

"The combat power of those giant beasts is so strong that I sent a full hundred and twenty Treant generals, not only did I fail to take them down, but I also folded thirteen?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Also, you said that the other party has a horse that can use lightning attacks?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Tell me more!"

In the face of Hussein Hassan's questioning, the subordinate naturally did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly told everything he knew.

After listening, Hussein Hassan probably knew what to expect.

"This should be the legendary Warcraft, is it a special class created by Eric Moonton's guy? What a hassle! ”

This bad news also made Hussein Hassan ponder.

In this battle, he can be said to have opened a large number of hole cards, and the next battle seems to be difficult to play.

Subsequently, Hussein Hassan opened his system panel and sent messages to Dybala Infit and Yanjiang Daxiang, who were also players from the foreign camp.

Hussein Hassan: The Europa Coalition is on a ferocious offensive, and I'm afraid I'll need your support.

Dybala Infit: But the forest battlefield you set up is full of poisonous gas from those plants, how can we go to your aid?

This is a very tricky problem, and an army like this that likes to use the poisonous environment to fight can't act with other armies at all, unless their poison gas also has a recognition function that can only cause damage to the enemy, but this is obviously impossible.

Yanjiang Daxiang on the other side, although he didn't speak, it almost meant the same thing.

For this, Hussein Hassan naturally also has something to consider.

Hussein Hassan: There are no poisonous flowers and paralyzing mushrooms in the outlying areas, and in the midst of the battle between my army and the other side, I need you to go around the outlying areas and attack from the flanks.

To be honest, at the beginning, Hussein Hassan really didn't think about getting other players in the foreign camp to support him.

Unlike the plant life under his command, those poison gases can cause great damage to human soldiers, and they do not distinguish between friend and foe, so calling on other players' armies can be a hindrance for him.

What's more, he is very confident in his defensive prowess, and it would not be an exaggeration to say that he is the strongest player in the entire Silver Rank.

But this time, he had to admit that the United Europa Army on the opposite side was not so easy to deal with.

Especially in this battle, those orc soldiers who attacked in, in the case of vigorous exercise, if ordinary soldiers inhaled a large amount of poisonous gas, it would not take long for the poison to explode.

And the physical fitness of those orc soldiers is simply ridiculously strong, and it is really a bit incredible for Hussein Hassan to take so long to let the paralyzing mushroom spray paralyzing toxin on the premise that he has already started to let the paralyzing mushroom spray paralyzing toxin.

At the same time, it also made him realize that he needed reinforcements.

In this regard, Dybala Infit and Yanjiang Daxiang, who happened to be on this continent at the moment, didn't say anything more. On the premise that they will not be inexplicably injured by a wide range of friendly forces, if Hussein Hassan needs support, they will definitely do their best to support.

Not because of anything else, just because everyone is now a grasshopper on a rope, if it is finished, everyone is finished together, and no one can escape!

In this way, after settling the matter, Dybala Infit and Yanjiang Daxiang quickly went to find foreign players who were also on this continent, ready to gather troops and launch support.

As for those exotic players hiding on several other continents around them, the current army of fishmen is blocking the sea area, and they can't get over at all, so don't count on it.

......

The orc army has been weakened by the fact that it has been in a frenzy for a long time, and it takes a lot of time to recover.

However, this didn't have any effect on Xia Qi, he had planned to prepare for a while longer.

Of course, during the preparation, he didn't intend to let the other side stop.

The goblin bombing troops would fly over the continent every once in a while, and then drop a wave of napalm bombs.

After a few rounds of fighting, he has realized that if he wants to solve this opponent, he can't do it without a little blood.

The money that should be smashed has to be smashed, anyway, he has these resources, anyway, even if the old minister of the Ministry of Finance wants to hang himself, he doesn't have to stop him.

And the reason why Xia Qi did this was not to let Hussein Hassan recuperate in peace was one of the reasons, and there was a more important reason that he wanted to see if he could burn some of the other party's deployments in this way.

Let's try it soon, everyone. 】

Of course, Xia Qi also knows that this possibility is actually very small.

After all, he has already seen those special tree people who have the ability to extinguish fires, and in this forest area, the number of fire-fighting trees is very large, and there are simply how many loopholes for him to exploit.

If he could, Xia Qi would like Alice to directly smash a meteorite from the sky, presumably the fifth-order fire-based high-level spell can also teach the other side to be a person.

However, the meteorite fell from the sky, and after a long recovery after a long time of recovery, Alice's mana has now recovered as before.

But according to what Alice said, the consumption of mental power caused by the original over-the-top spell is still recovering, and if she crosses the fifth-order spell again under such circumstances, it is likely to cause damage to her mental power.

The recovery speed of mana is slow enough, but it takes even longer to recover on the spiritual level.

After all, it was because Alice was still a mid-level mage, and when she was promoted to a high-level mage, this situation would be improved.

After getting this answer, Xia Qi also took the opportunity to ask Alice what kind of impact the mental damage would cause.

Alice then tells him that the most immediate effect is that she may not have a chance to be promoted to a high mage.

Hearing this, Xia Qi completely dispelled what he thought, but he had always expected Alice to be promoted to a high-level mage and become a strategic unit in the true sense!

However, he remembered something else, and then he had Eric Menton called over.

"Eric, I remember that you have a high-level mage over there, right?"

"Yes, there is one."

Xia Qi was actually a little surprised by the fact that Eric Moonton only had one high-level mage, after all, this guy had developed for so many years, and no matter what he said, he had to have two or three high-level mages.

But as it turned out, he was overthinking.

Eric Moonton himself is very helpless about this matter.

The fundamental reason is that although the Dark Elves have a stronger physique, their magic talent is far inferior to that of other Elves, and in the Dark Elf army, the Mage is actually more of a support class responsible for weakening the enemy, rather than the main output unit.

I have to say that Xia Qi was also quite surprised to learn about this news from Eric Moonton.

However, now he is too lazy to dwell on this issue.

"That high-level mage of yours should be able to cast high-level spells now, right?"

"Yes, but I'm not sure that spell will work on those plants."

Faced with such an answer, Xia Qi suddenly became interested, and immediately asked, "Oh? Let's hear it. ”

"The fifth-order high-ranking spell of our dark elves is called the Blighted Death, and the effect is that there is a certain chance that the creatures within the range of the spell will 'die'."

"What's the dead method?"

"To put it simply, it means that all internal organs fail."

Xia Qi understood, no wonder Eric Murton would say that he didn't make sure that the spell would be effective against those plants, not to mention anything else, just say that the tree man warlord who was broken by the scaly dragon beast Hadron was fine, and the fracture was full of wood slag, not to mention internal organs, not even a drop of blood.

Now, even Xia Qi couldn't help but wonder if this spell could work against those wooden scum.

However, there is no point in continuing to dwell on this issue at this time.
