Chapter 10: A Patrol
"In short, that group of Underworld Patrols is the thing that guards the most terrible creatures in the underworld, preventing them from escaping, and once they escape to the human world, it will cause disaster, so once something breaks through the defense line from below to the main plane, it is the responsibility of the Underworld Patrol to capture them or annihilate them on the spot. β
"Is the Underworld Patrol very strong?
"That wormhole should be supported by several patrols, after all, that guy is just an eighth-order magic swordsman. β
"Eighth Order, after all, Master, listen to your tone, as if Eighth Order is just a small boss on the first layer of the Demon King's lair in an RPG. β
"Hmph, the strength gap between me and them is no longer something that can be bridged by numbers!" Scarlet Moon had a look of "admire me" on her face.
"Master, are you so weak?"
A cloud of green tendons erupted on Scarlet Yue's head: "Don't underestimate the teacher...... It's ...... to be a teacher."
The ball of light broke free from Wang Ming's embrace and rose into the air, a flame burned on the sphere, becoming more and more vigorous, and finally turned into a huge fireball with a diameter of 100 meters suspended in the sky.
Scarlet Moon's hysterical roar came from the sphere: "But it's beyond the ninth-order existence!"
With a roar, the ball of light rose into the sky, and the originally heavy cloud spread out a huge hole in all directions under the impact of the fireball, and the hole grew larger and larger under the action of a white cloud shockwave.
Sunlight came down from the sky and mingled with the fireballs, as if there were two suns in the sky.
Wang Ming looked at the fireball above stupidly, for fear that Scarlet Moon would take the wrong line in his brain and lower the fireball and turn into a roast pig.
"Do you see it now?" another ball of light floated out of nowhere. It can only be said that there is no hell.
"Master is so powerful. Is that a forbidden spell?"
"It's not. It's just a fireball spell that has been upgraded to a spell. β
The so-called spell upgrade, that is, the spell that can be released by only consuming a hundred points of magic is simply accumulated, consuming tens of thousands of points of magic, and forcibly increasing the level of the spell, as a reward for consuming additional mana, the strength of the spell will be increased to a certain extent. It's not a practical technique, and not many people practice it unless the caster's magic is too much to use.
However, Scarlet Moon is this kind of magic power that doesn't want money even if it is "set the most demon-consuming skill shortcut key on the body as a numeric keypad, and you can press pi three or four times without worrying about magic".
Wang Ming has always been far away from this kind of perversion.
"My own magic power seems to be just two acceleration techniques......" Wang Ming thought as he touched the soft hem of the mage robe. "If you have something urgent to do as a teacher, you have to leave for a while, and I will introduce you to a unit for internship in the past two days. Scarlet Moon said to Wang Ming before leaving.
"No internship, I'll just study here. Wang Ming hurriedly waved his hand, what a joke. I'm a dead otaku.
"Well, forget it. Originally, I had discussed with the Moon God Temple, so that you and Tsukizakura would ...... together" Scarlet Moon turned around, trying not to laugh.
"I'm going to go!" Wang Ming said with his teeth and claws.
"Didn't someone just say that it's okay to stay and learn from Xi?" Scarlet Yue's voice trembled a little because of the laughter.
"That's not what I said, I'm a good young man in the new era, I want to use actual combat to train myself, and men and women are matched, I don't get tired of work, and I team up with lesbians, which is conducive to eliminating extreme masculinism and ...... at the same time"
"Okay, okay, it has nothing to do with the relationship between men and women. β
"What?"
"The Temple of the Moon only recruits women. β
"So this time, for the sake of Master's face, will they give me the privilege of expanding my recruitment? Thank you, Master!"
"There's no such thing, even if it's my face, it's just an ordinary place. β
"Ordinary places, isn't it ......?"
"That's right, Miss Mia, go and try if the skirt fits~"
When he walked into the room with his skirt in his hand, Wang Ming felt betrayed, and the horns, wings, and tail of Scarlet Moon made him look very much like a demon, a demon counting money.
"It's beautiful, it's just that the chest is a little flatter - but it doesn't matter, Mia is still in the growth period, and she will soon have a ...... the size of a watermelon."
β......β
"So, what color of the headband does Mia prefer? Although her hair is not very long, as a well-bred aristocratic lady, it is necessary etiquette to have long hair. β
β......β
"Sister Night will train your manners, if you are a little unqualified, Sister Night will love you well~"
Seeing Youye leave satisfied, Scarlet Moon leaned her head to Wang Ming's ear and said in a voice that she thought Youye couldn't hear: "I'm sorry, in the morning Youye suddenly said that she wanted a sister......"
Wang Ming also lowered his voice: "Why don't you wear it!"
Crimson Moon: "Because I'm already a pet of the Night......"
ββββββββββββ
Wang Ming, no, it should be Miss Mia, who was sitting upright on the broad back of the red dragon, and a magic barrier separated the icy wind outside, so that she would not be blown down.
The projection of the scarlet moon sat next to Wang Ming, with large bags and small bags piled up behind him.
"It's not easy to mix up in the Moon God Temple, and you fight with the Naga all day long, so you must be careful when you get there, and the Moon Sakura will take care of you. β
"What? Is it a tragic battlefield at the level of urban management law enforcement?"
"That's right, it is said that when the war is in full swing, the sea water for dozens of miles nearby is red......"
"This, this, this is too dangerous!"
"Do you want to go back? Sister Night will play with you to death......"
"No, I'm going to protect Tsukizakura, oh, my goddess, waiting for me~"
"How did you like her, why don't I feel it when I look at it?"
"Do you need a reason to like someone?"
"No, but ...... Mia, in any case, Lily is not right. β
"Damn it!" Wang Ming blasted Crimson's clone off his back with a punch.
Crimson Moon lowered its altitude and descended above the sea of clouds to take a deep breath. Said "sit tight". So he put away the flapping wings. A huge dragon body falls through the clouds. Wang Ming, who was in a weightless state, floated inside the shield, spinning awkwardly, and the white clouds outside swept by, constantly condensing into ice crystals on the surface of the shield, slowly melting into water droplets, and then sliding down.
Fortunately, there is this shield, otherwise Wang Ming would definitely be cosplaying the Yeti Brothers in the icy stratospheric storm.
Scarlet Moon pulled the pitch back and waited until Wang Ming fell back on the red dragon's back. The huge red dragon had already appeared on the blue sea, and far behind it was the golden coastline.
Scarlet Moon deliberately lowered his flight altitude and kept it close to the water, and because his body was so big, Wang Ming was still in the equivalent of the top of a three-story building. Of course, this also prevents the sea from wetting the luxurious dress of "Miss Mia"......
A group of dolphins jumped out of the sea, twisted a few poses in the air, drew a parabola, and smashed into the turquoise sea, splashing a large cloud of water. No matter who it is. It's a pleasure to see such a lively creature, whether it's the scarlet moon that sees dolphins as a little after-dinner snack. Wang Ming, who still grows on the seaside, but has never seen other wild marine animals except sardines because of heavy pollution.
So the depression of being forced to disguise also disappeared.
Towards dusk, the figure of the Crimson Moon turned into a little and dissolved into the burning sunset of the western skyline.
ββββββββββββ
"Let me introduce, this is the chief priest of the Moon Temple, Garolina, this is the chief moon priest, Tsukizakura, this is ......"
The names of the remaining people, because it is too difficult to remember, so Wang Ming didn't remember any of them, although they are all beauties, but the only ones who remember the names are Garolina, who is responsible for paying salaries, and Yueying, who is the main strategy.
As for Yue Ying, she was now looking at Wang Ming with a strange look, making Wang Ming eager to find a hole to get into.
"Then, my disciple will be handed over to you, bye-bye~" Scarlet Moon waved her hand, and a huge teleportation circle flashed under her feet, teleporting him to another world with the magic circle.
The main priest stepped down from the throne and came to Wang Ming: "Miss Mia, the Scarlet Moon Lord should have already told you what you need to do, right? In the days to come, the Moon God Temple will be your home, so please don't be too restrained." I'll let Tsukizakura take care of your daily life, and now, I still have some things to deal with, so you and Tsukizakura go clean up the room first. β
Although he spoke a lingua franca, the main priest popped out a few elven words from time to time, which made Wang Ming dizzy for a long time, and after roughly understanding the words of the main priest, Yue Ying led Wang Ming to a remote small room in the side hall.
Closing the door, Yue Ying grabbed Wang Ming's shirt and pressed it against the wall, because she had been treated like this by the eldest sister of the night for the past few days, Wang Ming reflexively closed her eyes and waited for death to come.
"Miss Mia, you'd better explain to me what the hell is going on. If I can't get a reasonable explanation, then I can't guarantee that you will be complete when the lord takes you back. Tsukizakura had a wicked smile on her face.
"Sister Tsukizakura...... I...... I don't understand what you're talking about......" Wang Ming plans to carry it to the end.
Tsukizakura grabbed something between his legs, "Miss Mia, is this something that a lady would have?"
Wang Ming (sneered): "Hmph, it seems that it won't work if you don't say it!"
Wang Ming (chirping): "So, so, that, I was sent here by the teacher." Wang Ming put down the teacup, and after drinking the third cup, he finally told a rough idea of what happened after the two separated, and more than half of them directly and indirectly expressed Wang Ming's admiration for Yueying, but these admiration were blocked by Yueying, and they were not passed on to Yueying's heart at all.
Tsukizakura: "Speaking of which, what about Feather?"
Wang Ming: "Oh, the people of Scarlet Moon Mountain have something to leave in the past two days, so Yuhuang went back to his own tree house to live, don't worry, Yuhuang still has the ability to protect himself." β
Yueying (worried): "The Dusk Mountain Range has not been very peaceful in the past two days, even the chief priest said that there may be changes in the Dusk Mountain Range in the past two days." β
Wang Ming: "But even if I'm worried about Yuhuang, I can't bring her here, I'm here to participate in the war, not for vacation, Yuhuang must be more dangerous here." β
Tsukizakura (thoughtful): "It's hard to say, if you stay in my sight, you're absolutely safe, but if you leave everyone's protection, just one Naga serf can kill you." β
Wang Ming wiped his cold sweat, and he really got on the thief ship!
Wang Ming (cold sweat): "Is the war here so dangerous?"
Tsukizakura (laughs) "However, the battle for the past two days has not been very intense. You should be able toβI meanβlive until the day your undisciplined teacher comes to pick you up. β
Wang Ming (worried): "What do you mean by 'should'......"
Yueying said, "The Dark Moon Festival is about to begin. It was the day of the day. Many of the island's defenses will be inoperable due to the Dark Moon, and the Nagas will launch a full-scale landing offensive due to the Dark Moon's call. You'd better pray that your teacher will be back before that day. β
"How many days are left of the Dark Moon Festival...... you said?"
"There are about ten days left, enjoy your short life. β
"I don't want to die ......"
"Don't worry, it's just nine deaths, and it's not necessarily death. β
"Isn't nine deaths enough?"
"Hmph, if you've ever experienced the Dark Moon Festival, you'll know what it means to be dead. β
β......β
ββββββββββββ
The Temple of the Moon is essential. is an island power, and the island on which these temples are located takes on a standard crescent shape. When the moon is low, the sea will descend and return the engulfed shallows back to the surface, at which point the void in the moon will be filled up and become a full moon.
In other words, the island itself is round, but much lower than sea level, but half of the edge is protruding. So usually it has been kept on the surface of the sea, while the rest of it. Only the portion that sinks under the surface of the water.
"When the moon is short, the sea level will also fall, and the Naga can't leave the water for a long time, so if they want to attack at this time, they will have to charge from the temporary beachhead two kilometers opposite the Moon Temple, during this time, we can use long-range weapons to wipe out those Nagas at the doorstep, as long as it delays a little, the Naga who have lost too much water will have to retreat. β
"What should I do when the moon is full?" Wang Ming asked curiously.
"Moonlight is a very nasty thing for Naga, under the moonlight the strength of the Naga will be greatly reduced, although they can land from a very close place when the moon is full, but there is no way to exert their full strength. β
"I have another question, why don't the Naga attack during the day?"
"During the day, during the day, it will be discovered by the patrols of the major sea countries, and then exterminated. β
β...... Is the sea country so powerful?"
"Let's put it this way, if the confrontation between the Moon Temple and Naga is a tribal war between the two Stone Ages, then the major sea countries are already cosmic civilization-level existences. β
β......β
"The smallest sea nation has hundreds of millions of people and millions of troops, while the two largest sea nations are Atlantis and Bermuda...... I don't want to say anything more. β
β......β
"The population of the Moon Temple is only more than 7,000, and all the people are soldiers, and although the Naga has hundreds of thousands, and the fecundity is amazing, but after all, it is limited by the Sea Country, and it cannot expand outward, so it can only live in a trench near the Moon Temple............ That's right, I'm inducing you to wait until your power develops to destroy the Naga. β
β......β
"This time the Dark Moon Festival, it is conservatively estimated that there are about 120,000 Naga troops, if you count some miscellaneous mercenaries, it is estimated that there will be more, you have to be mentally prepared...... Don't run!
"I just want to save a file......"
Seven thousand against more than 100,000, and those seven thousand still included a mixed force of militia and boy scouts, just thinking about it like this, Wang Ming felt a faint pain in his head.
However, the tactics of the Moon Elves are still quite good, and compared to the stubborn other elves, the innovation of the Moon Elves is already second to none.
"What? You're an elf?"
"What's so weird? Didn't that guy mention my ears when I appeared?"
"Who's going to notice that...... I want to say, if you are an elf, there must be some ancient artifacts that have been handed down, lend me a few to save your life......"
"If there was such a thing, would we still be so miserable?"
"That's right, but how the hell did you survive?"
"Well, let's start with the relationship between man and the universe......"
The ββββββββββββ Moon army's army is mainly archers, which means that they are good at destroying all enemies before they get close.
According to Tsukizakura, well-trained Moon Elf archers can reload and shoot ten times in a minute, and each arrow is guaranteed to hit a moving target up to 200 meters away...... vital parts.
Resisting the onslaught of the main forces of the opposing side were the two Ancient Trees of the Moon War planted in the middle of the shoal, which had huge activated palms and threw the crescent-shaped fruits they bore at them, and the impact was enough to shatter the skulls of adult elephants.
However, the two-thousand-meter-long defense line could not be stopped by only two trees, so the Moon Elves also domesticated a group of war beasts, such as the eleven writhing Arras War Bears.
The elf MM is helping the Arras War Bears brush their bodies, one is responsible for shaving off excess hair, and the other is sharpening the war bear's claws with a file. War Bear was a little reluctant at first, and after being brutally washed by the MM with a huge brush, they all obediently cooperated.
On the other side, there is a two-headed Chimera that is grinding its teeth, and the huge fangs have grooves flowing with corrosive liquid, whether it is melee or counter-shooting, it is a terrifying storage at the boss level.
As for the remaining classic elven clans such as the Moonblade Leopard, Silverwing Pegasus, and Deadwood Guard, they are endless, after all, the delicate body of the elves is not suitable for close combat, and hand-to-hand combat is still handed over to the war beasts that are not easy to hack to death, and the price is obviously more suitable.
Of course, there are also melee troops, and the firefighting team composed of five hundred elite swordsmen will replenish every gap in the defense line in time, once many of these swordsmen with ranks are all consumed, then the battle situation is estimated to be no longer good, and then it will be the final battle.
The other living force is the 3,000 archer troops, the elves are naturally good at using bows and arrows, they are enough to compete with the most elite long-range troops in the human world, so, in the past landing battles, more than eighty percent of the Naga army was shot dead when charging on the shallows, and they never touched the archers until they died.
War Beasts, War Trees, and Swordsmen form an embankment to resist the onslaught of the Nagas, with archers providing strong fire support from behind, and archers firing with precision can even hit enemies who are fighting him in close quarters even when allies are already engaged.
As for their equipment, their blades and arrows have been poisoned, and the Moon Elves' special compound longbows can shoot up to 500 meters away.
So, it's a very strong army. Wang Ming summed it up.
Before dinner, there is a routine inspection. In order to familiarize himself with the terrain and facilitate the remnants of the army when the army was defeated a few days later, Wang Ming took the initiative to participate in this inspection. (To be continued......)
