Chapter 708: Trap
[Thanks to Brother Xiang, the monthly passes of the three big brothers Long and Yiyaqq, who can only eat vegetarians!]
A fire-based ability knight sergeant spewed out a long pale blue flame from his fingertips, which was the finger of the sixth-order ability flame, a rare high-temperature flame among low-level abilities. It can concentrate the fire element in a square inch, thereby raising the temperature of the flame. The Flame Finger can pierce through metal instantaneously and is known for its high temperature and penetrating power. However, the attack range can be embarrassingly small, and most fire-based abilities are reluctant to produce this ability, after all, on the battlefield, there are other large-scale bombardment abilities that can be used.
The Finger of Fire can only be used when it is close to an opponent, and it is dangerous to have an elemental powerhouse play hand-to-hand combat like asking him to dance on a tightrope with a cliff underneath.
But the non-commissioned officer was apparently trained in close combat.
After a short but fierce battle between Zero and Leo for the second time, the Legion Commander made a quick decision and retreated into the Chinese army. And this non-commissioned officer-level capable person immediately entangled, sweeping towards Zero with a rare finger of flame.
Zero snorted, his body shook from side to side, and suddenly two afterimages were separated. The non-commissioned officer was also a decisive man, and immediately pointed towards one of the afterimages. However, with a burst of flame fingers, the afterimage suddenly dissipated, and he mistakenly hit the passenger car. At this moment, Zero passed by him, and slipped diagonally with his palm. The palm edge carried several afterimages, and the moment it hit the non-commissioned officer's neck, all the afterimages overlapped, and Liliang gathered in a painful explosion into the non-commissioned officer's body.
The non-commissioned officer strangely didn't fly in the middle of the palm, his whole body was stuck to the edge of Zero's palm, his body shook, and the finger of flame disappeared as the divine light in his eyes gradually dimmed. Zuihou, the lifeless husk slowly fell to the ground.
Zero didn't even look at him before he went to the Knights' mid-line. Where, there is Leo!
When Leo shook off Zero, he had already taken the opportunity to intercept and kill the capable people on the Zero side. His Black Flame is characterized by its high temperature and viscosity, making it a tricky ability. It is also a ninth-order, and in terms of energy intensity, it is already superior to the other eighth-order. Intercepted by Leo were Cinderella and Franklin, who were very lethal on the battlefield. Of course, in such a large-scale battlefield, Berrien, the thunder master, is undoubtedly the number one in lethality. All kinds of powerful lightning abilities were released from Berrien's hands, whether it was a soldier of the Knights or a mecha, under the bombardment of his wide range of abilities, they danced with death almost every second.
But Berrien was in the center of the position, and after being protected by layers of cover, Leo could not rush in alone, so he had to attack the other two.
Leo's Black Flame was defenseless, and even Franklin's Iron Shield could not effectively defend against his attacks. And Black Flame is Cinderella's nemesis, her water ability is already discounted on land, plus Leo is above her, although Franklin is covering, Cinderella is also fighting very hard.
Luckily, Zero arrived quickly.
A sharp whistling suddenly sounded on the battlefield, and a cone-shaped blast of energy swept across the battlefield. The soldiers in the path of the shock wave crashed into the air, and even the mechs were knocked back a few steps. During the shockwave, Zero crashes into Leo, knocking him out of the way. Then, Zero rushed into Leo's black flames. After a few moments, Zero flew back away, and Leo didn't stop there, turning around and flying away.
His figure was quickly obscured by a dense crowd of soldiers and clumsy moving paladin mechs.
On this day, the fighting continued until the evening. As night fell, the Knights temporarily withdrew their forces, and the Zero side retreated behind the cover of the position. The battle was so fierce that even a high-ranking soldier like Zero felt a little overwhelmed, and the ordinary soldiers fell into a deep sleep almost as soon as they entered the bunker. But Zero could only give them two hours to rest, and when the time passed, everyone had to go back to their jobs.
After the battle, the battlefield was counted, and this time the knights attacked from three directions, forming an unusually strong impact on the position of Zero, which was arranged on the mountainside. The most dangerous of these were positions B and C, half of which were destroyed, and the fighting spread across the small half of the positions, thanks to the griffin knights. These second-generation mechs that suddenly appeared flexibly bombarded the guided missiles into the position, and the first wave of attacks alone reduced the number of Seagod Regiments by nearly a thousand.
The snipers in the rear position fought back, but the snipers with less than twenty people were too delicate in front of hundreds of mechs. This is also a problem that causes zero headaches, that is, the number of special troops is far from meeting the needs of war. Ordinary soldiers can go to the battlefield after simply training for two or three months, but snipers need to be trained for a long time.
In the final analysis, the foundation of zero is too shallow.
Fortunately, he pulled all the anti-aircraft machine guns in the Canon Fortress into the position of the Eternal Mountain Heng, and the anti-aircraft machine guns placed on the commanding heights formed an effective suppression of the griffin knights. In this way, while the snipers and anti-aircraft machine guns suppressed the cluster of second-generation mechs, the soldiers of the two positions counterattacked under the leadership of those who were capable of it. If it weren't for the fact that Zero had arranged enough capable people in these two positions, these two positions would not have been able to hold out at all.
In today's battle, the Knights left behind more than 6,000 corpses, most of them on the battlefield that attacked Position A head-on, and in this, the three of them are credited to Berrien, Franklin, and Cinderella. In addition, there were more than 30 non-commissioned officers killed in the battle, and there were hundreds of two types of mechs damaged.
On the Zero side, there were more than 2,000 soldiers lost, the Trident was also reduced, and the others were wounded. Even Zero himself was injured, and who didn't have a small injury.
In today's battle, Cinderella's water demon group was the most active, and the number of casualties was the least. This is thanks to Leah's perception ability, under the premise of constantly monitoring the whole field with mental scanning, and connecting through the psychic chain, so that Cinderella knows the situation on the battlefield well, so that the soldiers under her command can always make the most accurate attacks. And when there is danger, it can be avoided in time.
It's just a battle, and Leah is more tired than anyone else, and now she's sleeping deep in the bunker. However, after this battle, when Leah wakes up, she will gain a lot of evolution points. Even though she hasn't killed anyone, using her abilities for a long time will also cause the energy to evolve points. Especially in places like the battlefield, stimulated by the flames of war, often those who are capable will burst out to their full potential.
Of course, this is only for those with low-level abilities.
At a high level like Zero, there are ten non-commissioned officers and hundreds of soldiers who die in his hands in one day, but he only gets less than twenty evolution points.
Berrien was relatively more, after all, he killed the most people, but only about fifty evolution points.
Next up are Cinderella and Frank Duoduo, both of which have accumulated thirty evolution points, and the rest are similar to zero.
At night, the battlefield was silent. Both the Knights and the Poseidon silently sent soldiers to pull away the bodies of their comrades who had died in battle, and in the process, the two sides did not attack each other as if they had a tacit understanding. After cleaning up the battlefield, both sides chose to cremate the corpses immediately, so as not to put too many corpses together to create a plague.
By the third day, the war had sounded again.
Leo still led the army to attack from the middle, but today, the old regiment leader did not rush to the front like yesterday. He appeared at the rear of the army and was responsible for directing and suppressing Berrien's attacks at the same time. Every time Berrion unleashed an ability, Leo would wave his hand and release a black flame, which and Berrion's energy formed a hedge and annihilation, so that Berrion's ability could not form an attack and fell into the Knights.
Obviously, yesterday's ability to make the Knights suffer a lot, and it is only today that Leo suppressed it. And he was left behind, leaving Zero, the one who was staring at him, unable to do anything. It's just that Berrion has been suppressed, but there are still killing gods like Cinderella and Franklin under Zero's command, and when they appear on the battlefield, the Knights still haven't been able to taste the sweetness.
However, today, the strategy of Position A has also changed, and the Poseidon Regiment has chosen the strategy of tightening the joint defense, distributing the capable ones on the defensive line. The ability is the node, and the ordinary soldier is the link between the nodes, using a passive defense strategy to resist wave after wave of attacks of the knights.
Compared with the mediocre performance of position A today, Kaede of position B adopted the bold approach of taking the initiative. But Jafidi was unwilling to fight him, and under the orders of the handsome captain, the knights defended on the spot. Under the command of Yafidi, his army was like a sponge, no matter how much Kaede attacked, it could not break through his defense.
After several shocks, Kaede fought hard to no avail, and instead lost the lives of two hundred soldiers. Zuihou he retreated into the position, Yafidi sneered, and immediately gave the order for the whole army to assault. So, under the escort of the griffin knights, the army rushed into the position in one fell swoop. It was only when it reached the belly of the position that it encountered a strong counterattack. Seeing that the position was chiseled through, and even the situation of the A position could be seen from here, how could Yafidi easily retreat.
The two armies staged a fierce offensive and defensive battle in the position, and Kaede swept away the previous posture of rough and wild attack, and the defensive work was delicate and long, so that the battle gradually evolved into a stalemate.
At the height of the heat, Yafidi went into battle in person. He began to storm the enemy's defensive nodes, knocking out some important points of fire that allowed the Knights to advance.
After swooping down on a bunker again, Jafidi killed several of his soldiers with a single move. At this moment a soldier ran through the cover, and when he saw Yafidi, he raised his gun and shot him. Jafidi smiled coldly, raised his hand and finished off the soldier. Unexpectedly, the soldier's right eye suddenly lit up with a dazzling golden glow, and his energy and power were rising steadily, and in the blink of an eye, there were ripples of Dao energy in front of him.
And it's high-level!
Jafidi screamed in his heart, and he suddenly realized that this might be a trap.
Unfortunately, it will be too late.
The soldier only leaned forward, and the next moment he appeared in front of Yafidi, incredibly fast. He raised the machine gun and smashed it down on Yafidi with the butt. The legion commander's newly raised right hand could only go to the butt of the gun, and the butt smashed into Yafidi's hand, and the entire machine gun exploded at once, and Yafidi also flew out with a huge force.
At this time, the shockwave arrived belatedly, hitting Yafidi's chest, leaving him with additional injuries.
Jafidi knocked down the bunker fortifications directly, and when he stood up again, one of his right hands was already twisted and deformed. He stared at the soldier in front of him and whispered, "Leader of the Seagod Regiment, why are you here?"
Zero smiled and said, "Then where should I be?
Yesterday evening, after learning about the battles that took place in two positions, B and C, Zero decided to solve the crisis in one of the positions first. He picked the B position, and that was because the leader of the team, Jafidi, was only an eighth order. An eighth-order regiment commander is relatively easy to capture and kill. So Zero disguised himself as a soldier today and infiltrated Kaede's army, and Kaede had deliberately rushed out before, with the purpose of bringing in Yafidi in order to create such an opportunity for Zero now.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zero lunged at Yafidi again, punching the handsome face of the Legion Commander.
Yafidi's left hand quickly clicked, and there was a cone-shaped ripple of energy on his fingertips.
Zero had the heart to test the Legion's Captain's abilities, and his fist suddenly accelerated, faster than Yafidi had expected, and a line was printed on his fingertips.
The fingers of his fists touched, and Zero felt a penetrating energy pass through his fist, and then the fist that had activated the steel skin popped out a bloody hole. In an instant, Zero's hand seemed to be pierced by a sniper bullet, and the phalanges, blood vessels, and muscles were injured at the same time. At the same time, his right eye erupted with a golden light, and Yafidi's ability was suddenly revealed in his eyes.
Yafidi is an eighth-order powerhouse, the fighting domain. It has the ability of steel and iron bones, speed, flesh regeneration, and spiral wearing. Like Mr. X, it is also an ability that is not common in the Middle-earth Continent, and Zero is already certain that the so-called ability map of the Middle-earth Continent does not represent the entire shijie.
The spiral puncture should be the finger that pierced the zero just now, and in the analysis of the zero gene scan, it is not a fixed skill. The principle of spiral piercing is to use the moment of extreme energy rotation to generate a huge piercing force to inflict attacks on the opponent, and it is not limited to fingertips. As long as Yafidi wanted to, he could activate the ability to spiral puncture in his limbs or even any part of his body.
It's just that the spiral puncture with the fingers is the most convenient.
There is no doubt that the spiral puncture has a strong ability to break defenses. It is difficult to resist the attack of this ability with both physical and energetic defenses, and if used well, the high level is a matter of a finger. After all, no matter who is pierced through the head or heart by a finger, they basically can't survive.
In a sense, Yafidi, who possesses this ability, is even more dangerous than Leo.
Zero didn't dare to be careless, bright red bands of energy floated out from his shoulder sockets and elbows, and he took out all his strength to attack Yafidi. The two of them set off a violent energy storm in the bunker fortifications, and every time Zero's iron fist burst out, it would carry several afterimages, and when it landed on Yafidi, the afterimages that seemed to be different in speed and slow would miraculously converge, thus forming a strike force of several punches in one.
Yafidi, on the other hand, frequently used the ability of spiral puncture, and the cone-shaped energy ripples of the Dao Dao were overflowing, and they would open gaps with the size of bowls when they hit the cover and the ground. If one looks into these gaps, they will find that the cover has been pierced and the ground has been opened with small passages.
