Sunset.

In the sky, Yuna looked at the corpse of the captain of the steppe people, and slowly lowered the magic guide gun: "This should be their strongest person." ”

"Well, the battle is over."

Nolan responded, "Well done, Yuna, it's time to go back." ”

Yuna nodded slightly, and she glanced back, just as she saw the reinforcements from Linfeng rushing over.

The reinforcements were not led by anyone, but a chestnut-haired girl in a white cloak.

"Evelyn? I didn't expect the reinforcements to arrive turned out to be her. Nolan was a little surprised.

He knew that Evelyn was on the battlefield, but he didn't expect to meet her so early, and it was really fate.

"Please stay!"

Evelyn rode her horse over, looked at the captain of the steppe who had lost his breath, and then looked at the white raven standing in the sky, and hesitated,

"I'm Evelyn Baihart, the leader of the Knights of the Peak, unit number 621, may I ask which unit you belong to? The credit for this battle shall be given to you. ”

When the distress signal was issued, her unit happened to be the closest to here, so she immediately rushed over.

However, the speed of the troops' march was still a beat slower after all, if it wasn't for the white crow in front of him to strike first, the defenders of Baiyun Village might not be able to wait for support and be wiped out.

Judging from her behavior, there is no doubt that the White Raven is her friend, but the problem is that she never knew that there was such a number one person in the army of Linfeng City.

"Nolan." Faced with Evelyn's inquiry, Yuna hesitated, "What now?" ”

She didn't dare to speak easily, Evelyn didn't recognize her only because she was wearing a white raven mask, but if she heard her voice, she would definitely be exposed.

"Leave her alone, just go back."

Nolan curled the corners of his mouth, "Heroes are cool, they never speak easily, and our true identity is for her to guess slowly." ”

Bai Raven has just debuted, his record has not yet been played, and there is room for upgrading equipment, which is the time when he needs to develop silently.

Now revealing your identity will lose your mystery, and you will not be strong enough, but you will not be taken seriously enough.

It's better to wait until you become famous in the future, and then show off your details to Evelyn.

At that time, he would be happy to get a closer look at the eldest lady's surprised and stunned expression.

Evelyn looked up at the white raven in the air from the ground, and the two of them staggered their eyes for a moment, and then the white raven raised its flight altitude, turned around and flew away.

"Evelyn-sama!"

Captain Randy Zerma arrived belatedly and looked at the back of the vanishing sky, "Which strong man in our army is she?" Thanks to her timely support, we were able to make it to the arrival of the adults. ”

Evelyn frowned and shook her head, unable to speak for a moment.

Linfeng City has entered a state of war, and it stands to reason that those who can go out of the city and engage the enemy troops are all the troops in Linfeng City.

But this white raven is different, she doesn't have any conspicuous army logo on her.

She came quietly, supported them in the battle, and then silently retreated, completely unaware of her true purpose.

She also has a strange appearance, distinguishing herself from all the transcendents, carrying a peculiar backpack, holding a peculiar alchemy weapon, and wearing a peculiar white raven mask......

Who would wear a mask for a serious person?

But it was such a strange ally, somehow, looking at her back, Evelyn felt a faint sense of familiarity......

Probably my own delusion.

……

Yuna landed back where she had taken off, and Aisha helped pack up her equipment and the group headed for the city.

In the carriage, Nolan took off his black raven mask and let out a sigh of relief.

"That's how you communicate with that girl?" Luo Zhen glared at the mask, "What is the principle?" ”

"Ah, I thought it would work, so I made a random sample and came out, but I didn't expect it to work."

Nolan snorted and changed the subject, "This sortie provides a lot of valuable actual combat information, and provides a direction for the subsequent modification of Valkyrie's equipment, I will change the drawings after I go back, and you will do it as soon as possible." ”

"You kid, you're going to call people!" Luo Zhen blew his beard, skimmed his head and ignored him.

Nolan has too many secrets, and he doesn't bother to ask them one by one until now.

Anyway, they are now close partners, he just needs to do what he has to do, and leave the rest to the young people!

Back in the workshop, Nolan snuggled in the lab and pondered his new invention.

He's spent more time in the lab than anywhere else these days, but instead of feeling tired, he's enjoying it.

See your own ideas and inventions come to life one by one, and play a role on the battlefield to achieve outstanding results...... Nothing gave him a greater sense of accomplishment.

In addition, using the soul link to immerse himself in Yuna's battle process is also his fun.

If he were to use Valkyrie equipment on his own, he would definitely not be able to control it as well as Yuna due to his physical fitness and combat awareness.

And now through the way of sharing the five senses through the soul link, he has also passed a wave of addiction to fighting in the sky in disguise.

How so...... It's like the feeling that I was addicted to a certain competitive game in my previous life, but I got old-fashioned, so I had to watch the live broadcast and substitute myself into a technical anchor?

However, the immersion of sharing the five senses is not the same as watching a live broadcast.

It's all too real to share the full five senses, such as the arrow that the captain of the steppe people attacked Yuna in the battle just now.

For Yuna, she had already been on guard against that arrow, and with her fifth-order knight's reflexes, although it looked thrilling, she was a little sure of dodging that arrow.

For Nolan, being able to communicate with his soul doesn't mean he knows all of Yuna's mental activities and has the same reaction speed as her.

In his eyes, the high-speed movement in the air had already made him a little dizzy, but he finally stopped to rest for a while, and the sudden arrow suddenly frightened him straight to the thigh.

Stunned by the way the genius driver fights.jpg

So after this sortie, he also learned a lesson from it, and in the future, he will share the five senses to open, but only a little bit.

You don't have to be completely immersed in it, but you can turn down the amount of information to the point where you can understand the situation on the battlefield normally.

After all, he is positioned as a commander and equipment manufacturer, and he does not need to perceive such rich combat details, which will affect his observation and decision-making.

And putting aside the dazzling battle pictures, this time he also summarized a lot of useful battle information from Yuna's first perspective:

First of all, the most obvious point is that the firepower of the first machine is still too weak.

The "Wind Blade" engraved by the magic guide is single, and it is okay to harvest and abuse vegetables, but it is more than enough to deal with high-level transcendents.

Like this against the captain of the steppe people, she failed to subdue him in the first place.

In the end, it was the mobility of the jetpack that forced him to a dead end, which killed him.

Such a performance can only be said to be unsatisfactory.

And in order to strengthen the firepower of the magic guide gun, he also came up with a good way to improve it:

The new version of the Wizard Gun will be equipped with multiple attack spells, each corresponding to a different attack type, and the lethality will also be different.

The controller can switch the mechanism on the magic guide gun according to the specific battle situation, and this switch can switch the attack method of the magic guide gun, so as to kill the enemy more efficiently.

At the same time, more alchemy weapons are also being manufactured......

In addition to the firepower of the first machine, its defense is also a point that needs to be improved.

When he immersed himself in Yuna's battle, the shaman's spell attacks on the ground and the archers' arrows all shot at Yuna, which really made him sweat.

Then he remembered that in the original design drawings, the first machine did not carry any defensive equipment and installed any defensive circles.

The first machine can annihilate the enemy in the air without damage, thanks to the excellent mobility of the Valkyrie backpack and Yuna's superb piloting skills.

While this is Valkyrie's unique advantage, thicker armor means higher payloads and less maneuverability, which is a sacrifice for flying equipment.

But just in case, the necessary life-saving measures are also required, and installing a defensive circle does not take much space.

Well, the strengthening of defenses also has to be put on the agenda.

Nolan swiped down in his notebook what he was going to be busy with for the past two days, and after making a plan, he sank his mind into the book of omniscience.

In fact, this battle also gave him an unexpected surprise, that is, he discovered that he could remotely observe the extraordinary power in the battlefield by connecting Yuna's perspective, adding knowledge points to the Book of Omniscience.

For example, the steppe shaman released the spell "Piercing Ice Spear", and the steppe knight used the combat skill "Shatter Slash" in battle, etc., all of which were recorded in the book of omniscience and turned into knowledge points.

This means that in the future, you don't need to go to the battlefield in person, you only need to use Yuna's eyes to successfully observe the transcendent power, so as to increase the knowledge points of the Book of Omniscience.

And this knowledge can allow him to obtain new spells from the book, so that Valkyrie's equipment has more powerful abilities.

Although it was still not enough to exchange for that mysterious soul spell, he believed that as long as he participated in a few more battles and observed a few times of extraordinary power, he would soon be able to accumulate enough knowledge points.

At that time, the Valkyrie equipment, which can control flight with mental power, will evolve again.

Learn from the experience in the actual battle, and get stronger and stronger, this is Valkyrie, this is his proudest masterpiece!

……

At the same time, the City Lord's Mansion.

In the middle of the night, the long battle meeting was now over, and the generals of the various armies had left, and soon only Evelyn and Ryan, who were sitting in the chair, were left in the conference room.

Originally, the chair was supposed to be occupied by Ivan, the lord of the city.

But after the suicide march, Ivan's popularity plummeted in the city, and he himself was devastated, not being seen in front of outsiders for a week.

Therefore, his sister Evelyn temporarily assumed the power of the lord of the city during the war and participated in the battle meeting.

All the generals in the army naturally had no objection to this result, and in their opinion, Evelyn was not only a powerful high-ranking mage, but also a good leader who took the lead and went to the battlefield in person.

It's much easier to communicate with her than a nerd who only stays in the city and directs the country.

Compared with Ivan, who was coldly eyed, Evelyn can be said to be full of expectations, but at this time, she did not look proud, but frowned at the battle report, and sighed a little haggardly.

With more expectations comes greater responsibility, and she must live up to the expectations of everyone to win this war and re-establish the prestige of the City Lord's Mansion and the Baihat family.

However, it is easy to declare war, but it is not easy to win, and it can be found from the battle reports in the first week of the war that the overall strength of the army at the peak is inferior to that of the steppe people.

Among them, the grassland is fierce and brave and good at fighting.

The Linfeng army has been in a comfortable and peaceful environment for a long time, and it is also one thing that it cannot adapt to the rhythm of war for a while.

At the same time, the steppe forces will also use their best guerrilla tactics to harass military positions outside the city.

The Linfeng army was scattered in the vast and sparsely populated Lebs grassland, and was often led by the cavalry of the steppe people, exhausted on the way to support, and finally caught the flaw and took it in one fell swoop.

This is also the reason why in the early days of the war, the Linfeng army was always defeated.

"I think it's our strategic approach that's wrong."

Ryan looked at the map of Peak City mounted on the wall, and said slowly, "The plain of La Buse is too big, and it is not realistic for our army to recover all the land for a while.

"We should temporarily abandon some areas of low military value, call back our troops, unite together, prioritize the protection of important trade routes, strategic strongholds, and prepare for a protracted war.

"Winter has come, and the steppe people can't afford to put it off. As long as we hold out for another month, they will retire. ”

Ryan is the head of the Knights of Linfeng and the dean of the Knight Academy, and was recruited by the empire to fight abroad in his early years, has rich combat experience, and also has high prestige in the army.

Although he sat in the second seat, he was actually the backbone of stabilizing the army's heart, and in a sense he played a greater role than the city lord's mansion during the war.

At this moment when the old city lord Aemon abdicated, he was the only one who had the strength and qualifications to convince everyone and unite all the troops in Linfeng City.

"Why don't you give up 'some' places first......?"

Evelyn frowned and looked at the map, if it was according to Ryan's plan, Peake City had actually lost control of most of the Lebuse Plains to the west, and only the eastern side of the communication route with the rest of the empire still had troops deployed.

It is equivalent to the territory outside the city being cut in half directly from the middle, or even more.

And the so-called winter retreat is not that they will roll back to the frontier when winter comes, but that these steppe people will settle down on the grassland in the west and wait until the next spring to attack.

This is tantamount to drinking water to quench thirst, and does not fundamentally address the threat of aggression.

"Is this the only way left......" Evelyn bit her lip, her heart tangled.

However, although she was very unwilling, she also understood that Ryan was just the most practical decision made based on the comparison of the combat power of the two sides.

Relying on the combat effectiveness of the existing Linfeng City army alone, it is impossible to hold such a large area of the Lebuse Plain.

However, even if it was just to hold the territory to the east, it would be much better than doing nothing under Ivan.

At least the army of Linfeng has done everything in its power to defend its homeland.

It's just that she also has some thoughts in her heart, hoping that the Linfeng army can really expel the steppe people and avenge all the victims of the war.

Thinking of this, her mind suddenly came up with the figure of the white raven soaring in the sky that she had seen on the battlefield in the afternoon.

The biggest shortcoming of the Linfeng army is the ability to gather intelligence and support on the grassland, and the white raven can make up for these two shortcomings very well.

The Knights of the Peak are a transcendent scout team composed of wind mages, but unfortunately none of them are high-level wind mages.

Limited by their strength, their flight speed is slow, and they cannot be distracted to release other spells during the flight, and their main role is still reconnaissance and early warning.

But the White Raven is different, according to Randy, the captain of the garrison, the White Raven can not only accelerate its flight, quickly support, but also release the wind blade in the process of changing direction flexibly, and its magic power is almost endless, which can be called a one-man army!

If Randy's words are true, the strategic significance of the White Raven is enormous.

With her assistance, the unfavorable situation of the Linfeng Army can be effectively improved.

"White Raven......" Evelyn muttered the name in a low voice, lost in thought.

"Who the hell are you?"
