Chapter 861: It's not the knight who charges, it's the tank
Just as Alicia guessed, the demon's commander-in-chief Dolbay thought that compared with the Ming Empire army in front of him, the shili of the Western Continent that suddenly appeared from behind was a greater threat, so he decisively stopped the siege and concentrated his energy on the rear - it is not a happy thing to be blown up, not to mention that the beautiful blonde girl who frightened all the batwings appeared in the troops of the Western Continent, you must know that bypassing the main battlefield and blasting chrysanthemums is this girl's greatest preference.
And there are not a few bosses who have been killed by the little queen like this.
In order to avoid falling into the same fate as the sad predecessors, Dolbe did not hesitate to launch countermeasures the day after the adventurers arrived, and testing with cannon fodder such as low-level monsters was only the first step. After that, the demon commander will also use all the resources at hand to carry out a preemptive attack or a defense that is waiting for reinforcements according to the combat strength of the troops in the Western Continent, so as to completely solve the big problem that is blocked in his chest like a big stone.
After all, the deterrent effect that Alicia and her friends have inflicted on the demons is simply too great.
However, the group of people that Dolbe was always thinking about was not in the adventurer's temporary camp now, but near the demon camp not far from Baoqing City. This was something that the Demon Commander, who had focused all his attention on the rear, never expected.
"Even though Icarus had warned in advance, it was a bit speechless to get through the demon's territory so easily. Alicia, who had been choosing a rugged mountain road along the way, looked through the woods at the many idle-looking hunters gathered on the flat ground in the distance, and sighed, "Until now, we have not been found. The demon is really weak against the Ming Empire's vigilance and supervision of Xiangshang. ”
Siggs, who was exploring the way ahead, also happened to return at this time, and after hearing the blonde girl's exclamation, he continued: "That's not wrong at all. The front was already unimpeded, and there was not even a handyman passing by to play soy sauce. We can walk over with a swagger. I really don't know what the demons are thinking, the security here is so lax that it doesn't look like they are confronting the enemy at all, aren't they afraid that the Ming Empire will take the opportunity to launch a counterattack?"
"It's really strange to say that...... "Alicia patted her cheek vigorously and said, "Well, now is not the time to think about these things, let's first bypass that group of hunters and climb into the city of the Ming Empire." ”
By this time, Leonard in the makeshift camp already felt like he was going crazy. As the leader of a large mercenary guild in the old era. Naturally, he had commanded a large army to fight head-on with a dense array of strange-shaped beasts, monsters, subhumans, and even monsters, and he was a man who had seen a big scene, but compared to the scene he saw today, the heroic deeds he was proud of were nothing more than a random fight and a foolish face between two bear children.
Thousands of murderous and low-level monsters swept across the land like a tidal wave. As far as the eye can see, even the farthest horizon is covered. No matter how fierce the magic is, it can't stop the momentum of the other party's progress, and the companions in front have just turned into a mosaic with gorgeous magical light and shadow, and the ones behind them immediately bet on the gap, which makes the magicians who take turns casting spells to see their scalps tingle.
Adventurers and mercenaries are not regular armies. When Dolbay found out about this, he immediately put into battle all the troops he had used to test him. It's all cannon fodder, though. But it still caused Leonard and the others considerable pressure—mainly mentally—so that the formation of a group of people who did not have a tacit understanding with each other faltered under the onslaught.
In all fairness, these low-level monsters will never be able to defeat the adventurers one-on-one, and even a small team battle of a few dozen people is no match for them, but this is not a team battle, but a war. Although Elysia is under the sign of commission, she is actually recruiting mercenaries to participate in the war, and she is by no means organizing any activities of 10,000 copies, so adventurers, who have never experienced the cruelty of the battlefield, inevitably have chaos under mental tension after being hit by a terrible number of monsters.
Leonard, though he was so anxious that he almost scratched his scalp, could not stop the chaos from spreading. Adventurers are not soldiers. Without the courage and consciousness to fight to the death with the enemy, the orders of the mercenary leader will naturally not be thoroughly implemented. Xiangshang has begun to appear one after another, and the guys who turned around and ran away when they saw that the situation was not good. The formation slowly collapsed.
"My body is the sword, and I should slay all the evil in the world, and my body is the shield, and I should guard all the good in the world! The cruel and evil enemies will eventually be crushed to powder by us, and the friends who are desperate and frightened will finally regain their courage from us. In the name of the Western Continent Unification Alliance, knights, charge forward!" Suddenly, a sonorous, powerful and unwavering man reinforced by amplification magic suddenly sounded at the rear of the team, "Honor is my life——!"
The raucous and piercing howls of monsters were drowned out by the rumbling roar of machinery, and the earth trembled violently. The hunters who were dancing their teeth and claws seemed to have a premonition of danger, and they stopped their movements, screaming and looking around in disbelief and irritability, even ignoring the adventurers in front of them.
Suddenly, dozens of huge beams of light shot from behind, straight into the middle of the ocean of low-level monsters. Time seemed to freeze in an instant, and everyone looked towards the place where the beam hit, but nothing happened, as if it had just been a malicious joke.
But in the next second, the gray-blue ocean composed of low-level monsters erupted suddenly. Like a fountain that has been chiseled open, countless monsters have been thrown into the sky under the action of some great force, and hidden under the gray-blue monsters is a large number of bright and dazzling fires, accompanied by thunder that resounded through the sky, in the most crude and simple way to show the world their terrible liliang.
The sky could not help but let out a mournful roar at the sound of its bombardment, the earth trembled in horror under its crush, and even the sun was eclipsed by the light of its cannon fire, as if even the highest mountain in Shijie could not stop its advance, and many steel behemoths from the adventurer's temporary camp did not hesitate to fire fierce artillery fire at great speed and crushed into the sea of low-level monsters, until the other party was startled.
Overwhelming!
All the efforts of the Hunt and Crawl were in vain in the face of these steel behemoths. Their fangs and claws couldn't even penetrate the shields of the other party, not to mention the armor that looked so thick that it hurt their teeth? Countless monsters tried to stop them with their bodies as they had stopped the human cavalry in the past, but they were all crushed to pieces by these steel behemoths. Even the opponent's speed can't slow down even a little.
If it had been before, General Renhausen would not have led his subordinates to play charge in this situation, after all, everyone still had a way back, and they couldn't fight to the death with a large number of cannon fodder here. But now it is different, Lenhausen is not a cavalry in the traditional sense, but the latest king of land warfare in the league. The old knight, who had already gained a deep understanding of the performance of the King Tiger tank in the previous battle with the Iron Crab, naturally understood how terrifying the destructive power of this weapon was, and it was easy to crush and cut the team of these low-level monsters. There is no need to worry about being besieged by the enemy's miscellaneous soldiers and running out of strength to die on the battlefield.
Because, the other side can't break through the defense of the tank at all!
50 King Tiger tanks lined up in a cone and rushed into the enemy line at full speed, and in a burst of people on their backs, ghosts and wolves, they tore everything in front of them like bamboos, this scene looked so exciting, morale boosted. The adventurers raised their spirits one after another, used their best combat skills, put down the frightened low-level monsters in front of them, and pushed the battle line back again. Even those who slipped away quietly returned to the front line again without realizing it, and followed the large army to launch a sharp counterattack amid the shouts.
Leonard also breathed a long sigh of relief when he saw this. As long as adventurers survive today, they will recognize the cruelty of the battlefield as much as they do. So as to be fully mentally prepared to give full play to their true strength. It will never happen again. And that irresponsible little queen will almost officially start taking action on this......
Alicia, who was worried about the mercenary leader, didn't know what was going on in the camp, and she had already led her friends around the demon's loose cordon and successfully arrived at the closed gate of Baoqing City.
"Okay, now how are you going to get in?" Mercury Lamp, who was held in Icarus' arms, pouted and turned to look at Alicia and asked, "Do you want to knock?"
"Well, while that's a pretty good idea, don't you see that there are a lot of uncles in the city looking at us with the big bright eyes of thieves, and what are you going to do when you knock on the door in front of your master?" said Alicia, taking a few steps forward, looking up and waving her arms, shouting, "Hey. We want to go into the city, can we open the gates?"
The defenders, who looked nervous as if they were facing a great enemy, decisively fell to the ground on the spot.
"Without even telling who he was, he asked the other party to open the city gate. Do you dare to be a little more reliable!?" The Chairman decisively broke free from the arms of the Queen of the Sky, pulled out a feather fan, and desperately beckoned to the blonde girl's head, "Or is it that after being shrewd for so long, your IQ has become the largest single digit because you are always paying attention to someone's usual small movements?"
Alicia hurriedly grabbed the little doll before her hairstyle went out of shape, and pressed her hand holding the feather fan and said: "Where is my behavior unreliable, as a cute girl, do you still need a reason to take the initiative to ask the uncle to open the door and let her in? Don't you know how many people dream of this? So for the cute girl, it is a natural thing to take the initiative to knock on the door and let the uncle let her in without telling the other party the reason, and there is no need to make any explanation!"
"Sister, sister, at least introduce yourself, right?" Before the mercury lamp that was blazing behind her back, Imrith hurriedly leaned over and reminded her, "This is basic etiquette. ”
"That's right. The blonde girl naturally didn't want to provoke the chairman to go berserk, so she naturally borrowed the slope and said on the donkey, "If that's the case, then the super invincible beautiful girl in the universe who is beautiful, kind, powerful, and loved by everyone and sees flowers blooming......"
Mercury lamp (coldly): "If you dare to say your name here, you are dead." ”
Alicia (sneering in a cold sweat): "Ah, although I would love to do this, our popularity is only limited to the Western Continent, and no one in the Eastern Continent knows me, so even if I want to, I can't get it." ”
Imrith (curious): "If my sister doesn't plan to come forward." So who should go?"
Alysia (decisively): "Of course it's the dumb angel next to her, uh no, I mean Icarus!" She just needs to undo her cloak to reveal the pink wings behind her, and she won't have to say anything. ”
It's definitely quite easy and convenient to do it. Because everyone in the world knows that angels and demons are mortal enemies, not to mention that yesterday Icarus also cleared the scene with a map cannon near Baoqing City, which is even more impressive. Therefore, when the Queen of the Sky untied her cloak and revealed her wings, the soldiers in the city who were originally embarrassed by the nonsensical and undisciplined daily performance of a certain blonde girl immediately became excited and excited, and the chaotic shouts suddenly rang out.
Not long after, Lin Feiyun appeared on the head of the city.
Wei Chimu, who was standing behind Alicia, didn't speak, because since the moment he covered his face and disguised himself as the mysterious staff officer beside the little queen, he knew very well in his heart that he had completely bid farewell to the Ming Empire. There was no going back - although Alicia didn't take these very seriously, and the blonde girl would probably not stop her if she said frankly that she wanted to return to China, but the young general had no such intentions.
Elicia's legendary deeds, her unruly and casual personality, and her temperament, which is often thrown all over the floor...... This doesn't count. In addition, the foresight, bearing, and personal charm shown in successfully uniting the countries of the Western Continent to form an alliance against the demons, and conquering the Western Continent by force to complete the hegemony without sparing internal friction, are enough to show that the girl is a king in the true sense. After getting to know Alicia in depth, Yu Chimu was quickly impressed by her.
However, it is only impressed. Wei Chimu, who has a strong local complex and thoughts, always insists on his position that he is a member of the Ming Empire in the Eastern Continent. I have never considered serving under Alicia. Not to mention allegiance.
Until Alicia issued a commission to all adventurers in the Western Continent in the name of the Alliance, to expedition to the Eastern Continent.
The battle situation of the coalition forces is due to the blonde girl's open-mouthedness, and Wei Chi Mu knows it in detail, although it can be described as "optimistic", but it is definitely not an advantage. The demons have succeeded in using the vast lands of Tyranmere to trap the main forces of the coalition on it, leaving the alliance without the ability to deal with other battlefields - perhaps the demons also have the problem of insufficient troops, but they are certainly better than humans, at least the soldiers of the batwings can be "made" - and at this time, these brutal enemies have set their sights on the hometown of Wei Chimu.
The demon's strategic intentions are quite clear, and even a three-year-old can see it. The Western Continent Alliance is in control of the teleportation array. It can put its combat power on the Eastern Continent at any time. In other words, Alicia could have waited until the demons had tried their best to defeat the Ming Empire to the point where they were about to fall, and then jumped out to pick up the bargain, but she didn't. Instead, when the main army could not be mobilized, they quickly found a way to integrate the adventurers of the civilian sector and became a combat force to come to support.
Although the little queen claimed that she was just a whimsical and thought of a way to take this opportunity to make money, for Yu Chimu, the girl was undoubtedly the benefactor of the Eastern Continent. Therefore, before the expedition began, the young general took the initiative to find Alicia and officially joined her as a mysterious staff officer.
also severed all entanglements between himself and the Ming Empire.
Looking up at the mentor who beckoned the soldiers to open the door at the head of the city, Wei Chimu couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart. However, he seemed to be calm, standing faintly behind Alicia without saying a word, perfectly playing the legendary background role.
Alicia didn't notice this, or maybe she just noticed it and didn't care, and the beautiful little queen waited for the city gate to slowly open and took the lead on the lower drawbridge, and had a second meeting with Lin Feiyun above the moat.
Because he wasn't sure what the identity of the little blonde beauty in front of him was, Lin Feiyun simply pretended to be stupid and treated her as an ordinary person, and first saluted Icarus who was standing on the side: "Your Royal Highness Icarus, it's an honor to be able to meet you again." You have come from afar to be fortunate, please go to the city. ”
"Uncle, please wait a minute. Alicia suddenly raised her hand in Lin Feiyun's twitching eyes and said, "You see that we have walked so many roads in the morning, and we have received cordial and warm greetings from the demon patrol team on the way, and we have already been so tired that our legs and feet are so weak that we are screaming with hunger. In that case, can you arrange an afternoon meal for us?"
Although they had only met each other yesterday, Lin Feiyun had already been impressed by this blonde girl's funny, black-bellied and wholesome abilities, so she carefully tried to follow the reasonable direction and said, "Well, it seems to be true, so let's go to a tavern in the city to sacrifice our five internal organs temple before we talk about business." I'm sorry, but I know that you're from the Western Continent, but no one here knows how to cook the cuisine of the Western Continent.
"Okay, okay. Alicia bared her little tiger teeth and squinted her head vigorously and said, "For example, the Manchu and Han banquets and the Manchu and Han banquets and so on." ”
Lin Feiyun, who was about to make a "please" gesture sideways, turned green on the spot. (To be continued......)
