Chapter 276: Cards

Lecius did not leave Renault's wooden house, and sat in the room leisurely, quietly listening to the street fighting outside.

None of the others, except for Hopkin's adoptive parents, left the cabin, and it was clear that everyone had a lot of faith in Lucius.

On the contrary, the mechanical army that invaded the town gradually gained the upper hand in the street battles, and their combat effectiveness was limited by the complex alleys, and they were completely pressed and beaten by the townspeople who were familiar with the terrain.

The mechanical demon general stood outside the town, staring at the battle that had been slow to open up the town, and the mech had begun to spew hot steam from annoyance, and it was clear that the general had reached the point of rage.

He really didn't expect that such a small town would be so difficult to conquer, especially the reinforced houses in the town, which almost became a natural barrier to block the advance of the mechanical army, and even more relied on the humans hiding in the town against the mechanical army.

This battle, which was originally easy to win in the opinion of the willpower of the mechanical castle, was now dragged into a stalemate by the labyrinthine town.

What annoyed the general the most was that when he tried to lift off to look down on the town from above, smoke suddenly erupted from the chimneys of every house in the town, instantly enveloping the entire town and obscuring the view from above.

At this time, the general finally understood that the town in front of him was obviously a place that was deliberately used to resist the attack of the mechanical army, and it could be said that all kinds of facilities inside and outside the town were also prepared to deal with the war with the mechanical castle, and every building and facility was very targeted.

As a last resort, the general of the mechanical army can only pass on what he has seen and heard, as well as some of his own ideas, to the will of the mechanical castle through special equipment.

Sitting in the wooden house, Lucius vaguely felt the transmission of a special energy fluctuation when the general was in contact with the will of the mechanical castle.

Ruciuston got up from his chair and, despite the stunned stares of the others, stood up and pushed the door open and ran out of the house. Looking up at the sky, but seeing nothing, he was very puzzled, and he stood in front of the door in a daze, trying to figure out what that energy fluctuation was just now.

Everyone in the room gathered in front of the door, looking at Lucius standing outside the door suspiciously.

Lucius searched for a long time, but he was never able to find that strange energy fluctuation again, and when he saw everyone gathered in front of the door, he couldn't help but look at Beluti and Augustine and asked, "Don't you feel it?"

Belletti and Augustine looked at each other when they heard this, and then Augustine spoke, "Do you feel it too?

"Speaking of which. It's not my delusion, it does seem to be a weird energy fluctuation. ”

The other people who didn't notice it were all full of doubts, and Du Liniang directly asked Lucius: "What are you talking about? What weird energy fluctuations? You can't be hysterical, right? Tell me, what's going on?"

As an elite of the Magic Temple, Norco closed his eyes and felt it carefully for a moment, and without waiting for Lucius to answer Du Liniang's words, he preemptively said: "I feel that it is a very unique energy, different from magical energy. It shouldn't be the energy fluctuation of Douqi, it's really peculiar, but what does that mean?"

As soon as Nocco finished speaking, a warrior in charge of fighting the mechanical street in the town came running. Panting and said to Lucius, "Lu, Lu, Lucius, Your Excellency." You, you, how. Still, it's still here? Well, the mechanical castle has brought in more machines, you guys get out of the way. ”

Hearing the townman's eager words, Ruciuston thought of something, looked at the crowd and said, "Okay, it looks like the other side has played the first card." ”

When Du Liniang heard this, she immediately said eagerly: "Is that right, we can also make a move?" The other party has already played the cards first, and we should also move. ”

But Lucius shook his head: "No, it's not yet the time for you to move, you are trump cards, how can you play them casually? ”

Lucius's answer made everyone stunned, but it was the warrior who came to report the news, seeing that everyone was indifferent, and persuaded again: "Your Excellency Lucius, you better get out of here quickly, there may be more mechanical armies attacking the town." ”

Hearing this, Lucius turned his head to look at the warrior and asked with a smile, "Hehe, do you think you can still hold the town, why do you have to let us hide?"

The warrior stood there stunned, looking at Lucius for a long time before he continued: "According to the captain's words, if the new mechanical army really attacks, I am afraid we will not be able to withstand it, so the captain asked me to tell you to hurry up and gather in the square, and in the end, if we really can't stand it, we can only leave through the secret passage of the square." ”

Lucius stretched out his hand and patted the warrior's shoulder, looked at the small town warrior in front of him, who was younger than himself, and reassured: "Don't worry, we don't have to retreat, reinforcements will appear." ”

The young warrior listened to Lucius's words, felt Lucius's hot gaze, and immediately felt that the fear in his heart was dispelled, and nodded very firmly: "Well, please rest assured, Your Excellency, we will never back down. ”

Looking at the young soldier's distant back, Du Liniang stretched out her hand and gave Lucius a burst and said: "Stinky boy, you can do it, such a few simple words will remobilize the morale of the young soldier, but can you not always use reinforcements as a guise? ”

For Du Liniang's chestnut explosion, Lu Xiusi had already accepted his fate, so he didn't even hide, and after taking a beat, he bared his teeth and grinned: "Auntie, can't you start lightly?"

Du Liniang shook her arm, sighed in her fist and said, "Stinky boy, are you still talking to me about conditions?"

Lucius hurriedly stretched out his hand to protect his head: "Don't, I don't want to come again, we still have something to say, don't do it at every turn, okay?"

"Okay, let's talk about it, tell me, where are the so-called reinforcements you are talking about? Now that the reinforcements from the Mechanical Castle have arrived, you can't see any reinforcements, and you don't let us send them, but you can tell me, what are your plans? Are you really sure that the town can withstand the army of the Mechanical Castle?"

Seeing that Du Liniang was still entangled in this problem, Lu Xiusi shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Auntie, why do you always have to worry about this problem?"

Du Liniang said confidently: "Of course, the old lady doesn't want to be infamous with you, and in the end, others say that we are cold-blooded animals who can't be saved when they die." ”

"So what can you do when you go out now? Kill the general of the mechanical army with a single sword? And then? The mechanical castle saw how powerful you are, and ordered a retreat, and we kept the town, but then the mechanical castle will be more defensive against us, how do you think we can break through that castle?"

Lucius's words made Du Liniang speechless, she didn't think so long-term, Du Liniang just wanted to solve the war in the town as much as possible and keep the town that she had lived in for so many days.

Now hearing Lucius say this, she suddenly felt that things were not as simple as she thought, because of the existence of the mechanical castle, they could not expose their strength prematurely.

Seeing Du Liniang deep in thought, Lucius continued: "In addition, you were hypnotized by that willpower before, maybe the mechanical castle has mastered your strength and knows your existence, but now their attack is blocked by the people of the town, don't you think it's strange?"

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and Du Liniang suddenly realized that she already knew about the existence of the mechanical castle, and since the will of the mechanical castle could hypnotize her, it showed that the mechanical castle knew her strength well.

Thinking of this, Du Liniang couldn't help but shudder, vaguely feeling that there might be some conspiracy in the mechanical castle that had not been fully exposed, and was obviously still waiting for an opportunity.

Seeing that everyone was no longer talking, and Du Liniang no longer continued to ask herself, Lucius sighed and spread his hands and said, "Okay, now that you know the reason, let's go back first, don't worry, the reinforcements will be there, and you will also have a chance to attack, just be patient and wait." ”

In the wilderness outside the town, the cyborg and the automachon used their bodies to form a huge metal altar, and with the flickering of lightning, a large number of mechanical demons continued to emerge from the altar.

It is not difficult to see that when the town has been difficult to attack for a long time, the mechanical castle has finally sent an increase in personnel again, in the hope that the town can be breached as much as possible, so as not to have too many dreams at night.

And that metal altar is very weird, using a special electric light, it can make all kinds of machinery in the mechanical castle directly cross the constraints of space, and descend directly from the mechanical castle to the outside of the town, and it seems that the number is extremely large, more than the previous attacking mechanical army.

When a large number of machines stepped out of the metal altar, the army of machines had already surrounded the entire town, and the outside of the town was like a sealed iron bucket, and almost no one could break through the outer encirclement.

And the light of the metal altar was still flickering, and the last figure to come out of the altar was none other than Vabelen, who had half flesh and blood.

The appearance of Vabelan immediately made the mechanical demon general feel frightened, and hurriedly led people forward to pay respects, but Vabriel waved his hand very indifferently and said: "No need, let's talk about the situation of the town first, didn't you say before that you could take the town on the same day?"

The mechanical demon general lowered his head and did not dare to answer, but the robot next to him explained in fear: "Lord Vabran, you can't blame us for this, we have really tried our best, but the town is like a labyrinth, and most of our warriors are trapped in it, not only did they fail to play aggressive, but they were broken by those humans one by one. ”

Hearing the robot's explanation, Vabelan directly pierced through the opponent's body, grabbed the kinetic energy block in his body, and directly pulled out of the robot's body.

Then he threw the kinetic energy block on the ground, smashed the kinetic energy with one foot, ignored the driving energy monster robot, turned his head to look at the mechanical demon general and said: "What a bunch of waste, immediately gather people and prepare to attack, before the sun sets, this town must be taken."
