Chapter 84: The Battle for the "Ghost".
Juan asked with some dissatisfaction: "What's the matter with those soldiers, they all said that they want to live in harmony and do not allow racial discrimination, why are the dwarves and elves still so separated?" ”
General Sorin replied, "When I was in the army, the instructors often told us that keeping a moderate amount of racial discrimination in the army was good for unity.
"However, the dwarves and elves in our army are not so separated because they discriminate against each other.
"It's really that the lightning arrows are so scary that as soon as the elf in rubber clothes opens the bow, the dwarves who are close will be numb.
"I had to order them to keep their distance just to be safe."
"What's the matter with the wooden shield, I haven't seen a dwarven infantry carry this thing before, it looks like a turtle, is it to increase defense?"
Muradin Copperbeard said excitedly: "Of course, it has the effect of increasing defense, but more importantly, it can increase morale.
"The dwarven warriors all said that after carrying this wooden shield, they felt much more powerful."
Ya Ling, who came along, whispered in Juan's ear: "It's all because of old movies." ”
"Old movies?"
"Yes, boss, you don't have to explain, you can only show the dwarves old movies that have been censored.
"We found an old cartoon called Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, which was said to have been watched by human children in the past, and after censorship, there really wasn't any show of love in it.
"After showing it to the dwarves, it was very popular, and they now watch it every day, and they don't want to sleep without watching three or four episodes.
"Many dwarves have become turtle fans, thinking that if they carry a shell, they can be invincible in the world."
"Ahem, well, since it can increase morale, then let them go."
At this moment, an elf in charge of reconnaissance ran back on a clouded leopard and warned loudly:
"Enemy attack! The orcs are coming! Enemy Attack~! ”
In the mountains and forests behind the elf, a large number of birds and finches flew up and circled under the low dark clouds.
Immediately the alarm sounded on the position, and the dwarves began to retreat, and the warriors all entered the battle positions.
Juan and his party, led by General Sorin, entered a hidden post on the hillside.
Standing in a trench covered by a thick log roof, Juan adjusted his gaze with his brain chip, nervously watching the wall at the very front of the Kesselring Pass.
The green orcs rushed out of the mountain forest in a hula, about 500 of them.
They roared "whoa, whoa" as fast as mad bison as they crossed the front of the deflated position.
But barbed wire hindered them.
The orcs used wooden sticks to break through the barbed wire, and they later discovered that blunt blows seemed to be ineffective against the extremely resilient fortifications.
So some orcs tore the barbed wire with their hands, and some orcs bit with their sharp teeth.
At this time, the dwarven warriors on the city walls opened fire.
"Bang ......"
Accompanied by the white mist of steam, fist-sized blocks of lead dragged the afterimage towards the orcs.
Several orcs who had been shot in the head fell and never got back up.
And the orcs who were hit in the body were mostly still able to move.
However, judging by the blood spitting out of their mouths and their apparently sluggish movements, they should have been injured no less.
"Rakura"
As an arrow struck the stake holding the barbed wire fence, lightning struck it on its heels.
The electric sparks exploded like white fireworks, and at the same time, all orcs who came into contact with the barbed wire began to twitch.
The orc, who was close to lightning, froze and lost his life in an instant.
The orcs who were far away from the lightning still had some mobility, but the flexible barbed wire became as sticky as spider silk at this time, sticking to their hands and mouths, making it impossible for them to get rid of.
A few orcs on the side reached out to help their companions, but as if they were cursed, their hands stuck to the twitching orcs, and they twitched together.
Eventually, they all collapsed limply, lifeless.
To Juan, it was an electric shock, but to the surviving orcs, it was as mysterious as witchcraft.
The living orcs did not dare to touch their companions, who died without the slightest scar, and they cried out "ahh
"Victory!"
Juan saw that the elves and dwarven warriors on the first wall were cheering.
Then his eyes were blinded by a flash of white light.
When Juan regained sight with tears in his eyes, he could no longer find the first wall.
With the elves and dwarven warriors above, the walls disappeared without a trace.
There is only a twisted heat wave.
Energy Attack!
"Ghosts"!
Juan looked up, but low clouds blocked his vision, and he couldn't find the anti-gravity drone "Ghost".
But it's definitely there!
And Jack, who manipulated the "ghost", must also be in that woods!
One after another, the orcs came out of the woods, and Jack's attack gave them the courage to fight.
But hindered by the heat wave, they couldn't get over for a while.
The anti-gravity unmanned aerial vehicle "Phantom", the standard equipment of the human army, must be solved, which is too disruptive to the balance of the battlefield.
Fortunately, Juan already had a countermeasure, and he used his brain chip to call up a password.
This is the alternate identification password left by Soma, the former director of the development station, and it used to be the password that represented the highest authority in the development station building.
But now all the equipment in the building has been updated.
Juan, the head of the planet recognized by the Human Alliance, has replaced Soma's identification code with his identification code.
However, for the "ghost" that was taken away by Jack and has not yet been updated, Juan's identification code is useless, and only Soma's identification code is valid.
As long as Juan sends this identification code to "Ghost", he can use Soma's permission to snatch it from Jack.
Juan began sending Soma's backup password.
This code contains letters, numbers, and special symbols, and it is very long and can take years to crack, but it also means that it takes more than ten seconds to send it out.
Compared with the three-dimensional code that is bound to the individual and can be recognized instantly, this kind of password is very inconvenient to use.
But Soma's three-dimensional code followed Soma away, and Juan only had this spare identification code.
Just as the sending was about to be completed, Juan received a message that the subject was out of range and that the password had failed.
Obviously, Jack got a hint the moment the code was sent, so he immediately commanded the "ghost" to leave, and flew out of the effective range before the code was transmitted.
If this is a plain, the "ghost" will never have time to fly out of the effective range, but the terrain of the mountains seriously affects the signal transmission.
Thus, this silent "ghost" battle that can dominate the outcome of the entire battle is over.
However, Juan did not fail, at least he succeeded in driving out the "ghost".
Perhaps Jack will also take the risk of sneak attack, taking advantage of Juan's inattention, so that the "ghost" will fly over and bomb quietly.
But if Juan is on the top of a mountain with a better signal, the "ghost" can't go back.
Juan believes that Jack, who doesn't like gambling, will not dare to let the "ghost" appear on the battlefield again.
Without this balance-destroying weapon, the battle is back to low-tech confrontation.
