Chapter 187: Fueling Tactics

The eerie environment suppresses the senses, and the foul-smelling air is unpleasant.

Even Curt could sense that the gas that permeated the surroundings was full of poison. They smelled slightly different from the fragments of the chimeric corpse that Lizzie had disassembled at the time, but Curt could still discern the peculiar smell of the life-damaging material.

This trick is the same as the previous strategy against the security officers, which consumed the opponent's body and then used the poisonous gas to attack them. It was a bad strategy, but it was definitely an effective strategy - Curt was a little glad that the House guards had left, otherwise they might not have been able to unleash the power to release the dissolving spell from the group of chimera soldiers who had already consumed a lot of mana before the attack.

How many enemies are there in this underground passage? Just trying to deal with the enemies that keep coming in from a distance is already boring for Curt. I don't know if the other party has already appeared in Curt's deposit, so the tactic of using the sea of people to refuel does not seem to have worked.

Adding oil is the most unwise way to fight, just like adding oil to an oil lamp, adding a little oil again and again, and eventually it will always be worn out when the flame is few. If it was just to test Curt's combat effectiveness, it would be enough to rely on the enemies who had been buried in his hands before.

Under normal circumstances, commanders do not actively resort to refueling tactics. Often, because of a lack of understanding of the enemy's situation or a misinterpretation of the strategic situation in the early stage, the commander was unable to achieve his strategic and tactical goals due to insufficient investment in the first battle, or he suffered heavy losses and was difficult to withdraw from the battlefield due to the enemy's fierce counterattack.

In order to rush to achieve the goal. Some commanders will put their troops into battle before their reserves are fully assembled and effectively integrated. But such choices are often disastrous, and rushed reinforcements almost always suffer the same tragic results as the first wave of attackers.

So on the road that Curt was passing by. Not only were there living corpses that had been cut into pieces, but dozens of fragments of lifeless chimeras were scattered. They were all encountered by Curt who rushed forward in the process of reinforcements, so he cleared them as obstacles.

"It's really a boring force, could it be that the 'True Eye' is planning to attack the academy with these half-finished products? Not to mention that guy François, even if you organize a random team of magicians, you can use the spell array to blast this group of non-learning guys to pieces. ”

Curt kicked away the chimeric soldier whose neck had been severed by the dagger, and then continued to charge for the next enemy. These "soldiers" who lack the ability to think really do not feel intimidated. However, their abilities may not be able to catch up with the demoralization of humans who will be demoralized by the death of their companions.

Fueling tactics may not always be used to test attacks, and sometimes they are forced to be used due to terrain, climate, and equipment. Curt remembers in several famous battles. There have been records of terrain constraints that forced commanders to throw their troops into battle one by one.

However, the situation of this underground passage is slightly different, and it is clear that the one who is restricted should be on the side of the academy. The intricate passage paths had long been in the hands of the "True Eye", and their army could obviously use this underground passage to carry out an unexpected surprise attack on the academy.

In fact, they may have put this advantage into practice - the "anomalous lifeforms" that have appeared around the academy for some reason may have been the force they sent out using the network of underground tunnels. That's it. There's no need for them to spend so much energy on Curt.

"Could it be that you want to overwhelm me with crowd tactics?" Curt smiled coldly. At the same time, he stabbed the iron pipe into a chimera that pounced on him with his backhand, "It's just that a team of less than 100 people wants to use it as a 'sea of people', should I praise their creativity?"

Although Curt despises refueling tactics, they can also be useful in attacking a fixed fort. Especially when having these troops who are not afraid of death, such tactics can often be carried out at the same time as huge losses.

Although the defense forces of the academy can rely on the fortifications prepared by sight, they can invest troops in various areas to block and harass the enemy who is attacking them, so as to achieve the purpose of delaying the enemy's attack, depleting the enemy's vital forces, and destroying the enemy's will to attack. This style of fighting was evident in several siege stations and street battles in the last great war - but now their enemies are creatures who are not afraid of death.

Humans get tired after all. Not just humans, but all living creatures, even magically powered mechanical dolls. There are times when the body is exhausted. But unlike these "soldiers" who have been used and lost, they are worn out before they have time to get tired, and the mindless nature allows them not to fear their companions being torn apart by spells before their eyes, and they see only orders from the Dominator.

At present, it seems that although the academy was caught off guard by the surprise attack of the other party, they are not in a difficult situation. Abbot Cruise François has returned to the Tower of Silver from the Abbey of Wiguias, and is now directing his sorcerers to fight back.

Maybe volleying the other side in the underground passage will help François and them share some of the pressure, Curt thought as he lowered his center of gravity and ran as fast as he could in the underground passage. The iron rod stained with the flesh and blood of the enemy in his hand was delivered with unerring precision into the vital point of each enemy that appeared in front of him.

The rusty iron rod had not broken under the support of magic, but this seemingly tattered piece of metal had the sharpness in Curt's hands that could easily break the enemy in front of him. After the cold light flashed, all that was left was cold shards.

This huge underground labyrinth will change its structure at the will of the accuser, which will not be a problem, because the direction in which the enemy appears is where the opponent is. Squad after group of enemies rushed out of the tunnel, kicking him apart and showing him the way forward.

The purpose of the crowd tactic is to rely on quantity over quality, but the situation seems to be urgent to that point. As long as the number of opponents does not reach the level that even all the mages in the academy cannot compete with when they run out of mana, then when the regular army arrives to reinforce them, this kind of commotion will definitely be resolved.

The key point is whether the other side can overwhelm Cruise François with his own "numbers". This high-ranking mage may be the most powerful individual in the Dominion, and Curt doesn't know what the True Eye has in his hands, so he chooses to challenge him.

Perhaps in their "Great Plan", the "Wind of the Twelve" was an obstacle that had to be overcome, but Curt still felt that such an action seemed too risky. Not knowing what went wrong, Curt felt as if they had been forced to make such an offensive.

The number of enemies is not endless, and the number of enemies that appear in front of the Curts is becoming less and less along the path that the other side has come from. Eventually, Curt found himself in a building that looked like a research institute, swept away by the stench and gore, and the strange smell of herbs in the air.

The neat walls are clinging to light metal parapets, and the spotless tables are stocked with a variety of practical equipment. Curt looked left and right, and now there were alchemy reagents of various colors on the shelves in the corner of the nearby wall, and the smell of wonderful herbs he smelled really wafted from it.

This is simply the embodiment of the ordinary person's perception of the "real yàn room", and everything that may appear in it is placed in front of Curt's eyes. It's just that now there are no real people in white coats here, and many things have been violently destroyed.

And it's a spell that simply emphasizes destructive power...... It was a mark of the magic that Curt was quite familiar with, and the guy who left this mess behind him could not be more familiar.

"You're a little slower, I thought you'd be a little faster. A short figure appeared at the entrance of the passage on the other side, and at the same time, Lizzie's sneering sneered reached Curt's ears, "But it doesn't matter, I've solved the problem for you." ”

Lizzie approached Curt slowly, fiddling with a few magic orbs that shimmered with blue and white lightning. The dazzling magical light made Curt look sideways - if they were to be touched, even if he was equipped with standard magical defense armor, most of his body would be blown away.

"It's all used to the magic of this specification, and if you say it doesn't work, I don't believe it. Curt sighed, it was unlikely that Lizzie would have used a spell of this level if it weren't for some special reason, "So? What parts did you leave them?"

The most likely, of course, is anger...... It wasn't anger, but even more cold killing intent: "I'm really sorry, although you said that you wanted to leave a living mouth to ask, but I still nodded slightly." Well, that's all you can see, as for the rest...... Trust me, you won't want to see it. ”

Jingle bell... A large pile of charred metal shards had been sprinkled from her hands, mixed with crushed lapis lazuli shards. Curt couldn't tell what parts of these things were originally, and the only thing he could tell was the power of the spells that made them like this.

"I'm sorry to have hit the dead on the spur of the moment. Emotionless words came out of Lizzie's mouth, and she didn't feel the apology in her words, and her smile lacked the smile she deserved, "But if you can, I really don't want you to see me like this." ”

The red-and-black girl smiled grimly, her body covered in fine scars, and the edges of her mouth, nose, and eyes still had undried blood. There was a faint blue light in those dark eyes at this time, as if two faint phosphorus fires had been ignited.

"What's the matter, it's not the first time I've seen it anyway. ”

But it's been a long time since I've seen it—Lizzie's real anger. (To be continued!)
