Chapter 973: Twin Towers
Although she was strong in front of her subordinates, Alicia was actually getting more and more uneasy. Hannah's words confirmed Mindal's prophecy in another way, and the demon must have prepared some kind of means to reverse it in one shot, otherwise she would not have been so arrogant and arrogant as to ask the blonde girl and others to wash their necks. Despite this, the coalition is ready to attack, and Alicia cannot and will not give up on the attack on the Land of Despair because of the terrible prophecy of the prophet Koshota, because this is the best chance for the coalition to win the war against the demons. Once these bats are relieved, they will immediately make countless cannon fodder and giant monsters that will crush many people by rolling on the ground, thus delaying the end of the war, and even the possibility of accidents.
Opportunity always comes with danger, so Alicia, who decided to seize it, did not back down.
Three days have passed since the encounter between Ziying and Hannah, and during these three days, the coalition forces have methodically deployed their forces to occupy the important places that the demons have voluntarily surrendered, and slowly but surely pushed forward, constantly squeezing the demons' battle lines. Strangely, Bat Wings maintained a great degree of restraint, and there were not many fierce clashes between the two sides, except for a few hot-headed people who took the initiative to jump out to fight.
The coalition advances, the demons retreat, the coalition continues to advance, the demons continue to retreat. Yesterday, there was even a thing like four King Tiger tanks driving thousands of low-level monsters to the ground at a very high speed, desperately running away and abandoning a large area of land, and this combat team that ate the heart of a bear and a leopard also set a record for the fastest advance of the coalition forces since the landing of the coalition forces without firing a single shot. By the way, everyone's jaws dropped.
Of course, they were quickly called back, but Batwing didn't seem to have any intention of retaking ground after the other had left. A strange no-man's land was tossed out like this.
Even the most ordinary soldiers noticed the abnormality inside, and the coalition forces immediately became more cautious in their actions, for fear of being calculated by the demons. However, it didn't matter what happened to the Golden Shadow, this no-man's land was just right for the reconnaissance activities of her team.
On the morning of the fourth day, Xiao Dark returned to the camp of the coalition forces with the results of the reconnaissance. In the Aurora's battle room, Alicia and her friends listen to the girl's report.
"Despite a lot of troubles along the way, we finally got the job done. "Little Shadow and Shadow just came back and rushed directly to the little queen. Both of them looked tired, "I lost a few good hands in the close contact with Hannah, and I hope to replenish them in time." β
"That's fine. In short, little dark sister, you have worked hard. Alicia motioned for the two of them to sit down at the round table, and then pinched the hair in her ear and asked seriously, "What kind of information did you get from this reconnaissance?"
Xiao Dian took a big sip of the tea that Ba Asami brought to him, sorted out his thoughts and said, "I found a very strange thing. After freeing ourselves from Hannah's entanglement, we managed to enter an area heavily defended by the demon army. And then...... There were two towers of sacrifice. β
"Wait. You mean, two?" said Rao is Alicia with a puzzled expression, "It doesn't make sense. That thing is not a barracks, and the number of troops built will be faster, phew, this sentence doesn't count. As a strategic weapon that requires great exertion to maintain its effectiveness, I don't think the current demon has the ability to activate two sacrificial towers at the same time. Little Dark Sister, have you tried to get closer and take a closer look at those two towers?"
"Don't be funny, you can throw a stone into the bushes in that place, and a curious and angry man with a red swollen bag on his head crawls. The unified guard composed of bat's wings was closely guarded in the vicinity of the tower. Xiao Di shook his head faintly and said a little helplessly, "Of course I want to go over and see what is going on." But it was impossible to get closer, and Hannah gathered a lot of troops to try to surround us, so in the end she had to retreat. However, the tops of the two towers were all lit up with dazzling magical light, and they should have been activated. β
William raised his hand beside him: "I'm sorry, I don't quite understand. It's possible that the demon built the two Towers of Sacrifice because he wanted to prepare an extra insurance, after all, everyone knows that eggs can't be put in one basket, but since the Golden Shadow can 'see' the two towers, it means that they are not far from each other, which is obviously unreasonable. What the hell are these bat wings going to do?"
"Let's have a plot with the Two Towers?" Alicia replied with a serious face as she raised her index finger decisively.
Asami is not light or heavy, and the knife hits the head.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to. But now it's so similar that people have to feel it. The blonde girl touched the top of her head and said with a smile, "Well, there are no rivers and lakes around here, so you can't play any flooding of the Seventh Army, so the Twin Towers plot is obviously impossible." Then we might as well think about it from another angle, it is not cost-effective for the demon to activate the two sacrificial towers at the same time, which is obviously more cost-effective than the gain, but even so, the two towers are still activated. Why is that? I don't think the devil has a lot of money to spend. β
Imrith rubbed her little head hard, and after a while, she suddenly thought to her: "Maybe that super final battle weapon has been debugged, and the demon is preparing to cooperate with it to launch a large-scale counterattack? β
"My little sweetheart, that's actually unlikely. Alicia tapped her index finger on the table and muttered faintly, "Because since the demons' weapons of final battle have been able to defeat the coalition forces, what are they going to do with the continued waste of resources to strengthen cannon fodder?" β
Jikrem, who was sitting farther away, immediately raised his hand and said in confusion: "I'm sorry, Your Majesty. I'll admit that there is some truth in your analysis, but a single tower can defeat an entire coalition army...... This is also too fantastical. Is the demon's head caught in the door? I don't think an immovable tower can be a weapon that can turn the tide of battle. β
Alicia suddenly glanced at the other party angrily: "What kind of so-called final battle weapon is in your impression, it is really some kind of long cable tooth with a long cable on its body, good appetite, and love to eat all kinds of strange raw meat, even when Bei Ye sees it, he can only run away in tears in the sunset, and he often plays with the huge humanoid monster that runs wild? Demons are good at creating small monsters, but they are far from being as powerful as apostles; Although the cost is huge, once you start it, you immediately have a definite advantage. The Tower of Sacrifice was immovable, and the demons defeated the coalition with reinforced cannon fodder, and the Law of Equality's magic circle was also unable to move, leaving Hetshtier behind. Now these bat wings are probably coming up with some new rules, and we may not know if they are waiting in the tower ahead. β
There was a sudden silence in the room.
[It seems that this is what happened, the demon built the Tower of Sacrifice and the tower that I don't know what it does, so that I can concentrate on guarding it.] The bat wing should have finished debugging it. That's why the opposing army kept retreating without resistance, in order to lure the coalition forces into the tower's area of effect. The tactics adopted by the enemy are inevitably too simple, so Hannah dares to claim that she will achieve "absolute perfect victory"?]
"Order the whole army to stop advancing. Elicia, who had cleared her mind, spoke decisively and solemnly. "Build defenses on the spot, while both flanks send a small number of highly mobile troops to capture nearby key points to expand our strategic space. Let the troops put on a posture that they are ready to wait until the teleportation array is completed before continuing to advance, and do not attack no matter how provocative the other side is. β
Franciston, who was drowsy and dozing nearby, struck a spirit. Without bothering to wipe the saliva from the corners of his mouth, he said loudly in a daze: "Teleportation array." Can we go back!? It's so nice that I'm going to have a lot of swimsuit beauty by the beach......"
"Look at the hairy beauty, let the old lady go to watch the ball, hey!" Alicia picked up the teacup in her hand and smashed it on the head of the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces and said angrily, "How many people have lost their jobs because they stayed up late to watch the World Cup, is it possible that you plan to do the other way around, and lose your job because you want to see beautiful women!?"
Francis, who was covering his head, didn't care about this at all, and he raised his head and said with a righteous and awe-inspiring attitude: "It doesn't matter, I'm also here to complete the order you issued." β
"When did I order you to go to the beach and admire the beautiful women?"
"You certainly didn't give such an order. But a few days ago you told me to find a good girl to get married and start a family, right? It's hard to find such a girl in the army, so of course I'm going to take the opportunity to go back. What's that. Your Majesty, what are you going to do when you jump on the table, what are you going to do when you come to me, and what are you going to do when you walk in front of me? Lifting your legs will give us a peek at the fat times...... Whoa!!"
After leaving a small black footprint on the face of the commander-in-chief of the coalition forces and successfully causing the other party to fall to the ground and foam at the mouth, the beautiful little queen wiped her hair and stuck her waist and said, "Everyone ignore him, this guy forgot to take medicine today." In short, let the troops stop first, and then start defending in place. Now that the coalition forces have the initiative on the battlefield, it is up to us to attack, defend or retreat. Since one of those two towers is a killer weapon that the enemy is already preparing to complete, then there is no need to rush over. Let's get the teleportation array right first, and see who is more urgent, us or the demons. β
The Land of Despair is the demons' foothold among Drowlivan, and at the same time their lifeblood. The previous two expeditions were because the supply lines were too long, so the demons were not too worried, but this time the alliance has mastered the ultra-long-distance teleportation technology, which can send a steady stream of troops, materials, and equipment to the front line at any time, and the threat level is not at all level.
Waiting for the Coalition Teleportation Array to complete is no different from a chronic suicide.
Usually according to Elicia's temperament, it is absolutely "since you don't come, then I'll fight gorgeously", but in view of Mindal's prophecy and the report of the Golden Shadow, the little queen decided to adopt a more secure tactic, and changed to "Since you have set a trap inside and refuse to come out, then I will light a cigarette outside to prevent fire and force you to come out".
"Are you going to keep us waiting?" said Jikrem, who instantly understood what the blonde girl meant, nodded in realization. "It's really too dangerous to rush over like this, and it might be a good idea to pause the offensive a little. And needless to say, the strategic significance of the teleportation array is not to be mentioned, and the demons will not watch us complete it. As long as the other party dares to leave the range of the twin towers. Then the rest is simple. β
"Well, that's the reason. "The more the enemy wants us to do something, the more we will not do it." After the troops are settled, we will conduct a detailed reconnaissance of the twin towers, and if necessary, I will personally go into battle, and I will definitely find out what it does!"
ββββββββββββββββββI'm a dividing lineββββββββββββββββββ
Mohler was unhappy with the order to halt the troops' advance, but the dwarves who had come to take revenge and reclaim their homeland eventually showed themselves to be fierce and resolute warriors. He resolutely and conscientiously obeyed the orders issued by Elicia, and did not cause trouble or lose his temper, which also made the others breathe a little relieved.
That being said. There were still some dwarves who liked to wander around the neighborhood under the pretext of going out huntingβmost of them were low-ranking monsters who were spying on the Coalition forcesβand the officers acquiesced in this kind of venting, since it was better to go out and hunt and crawl with knives than to fight in the camp.
Today is the fifth day since landing, and the teleportation array near the beach has been mostly completed, but the demons on the opposite side still have no movement. There is no sign at all that they are going to attack and stop the construction of the coalition forces. Moller left the battlefield with Randall and Nest, two of his best friends and best warriors in his tribe, and left the battlefield for a pleasant hunt. By the way, it will be interesting to see if the demons will pop out of their nests today so that they can have a good time.
However, the batwings are still hiding at home and refusing to come out. Demons could often be seen on the low hills in the distance, but they were only scouting from afar, and Moller couldn't even reach each other, for there was a group of curious crawlers between them.
These are the three dwarves that are going to hunt.
Until now, the scholars of the alliance still can't figure out whether or how low-level monsters and transformed monsters can think. Sometimes they are so stupid that a simple tactic of blocking an intersection can kill a large number of people, and sometimes they are astonishingly clever enough to set up ambushes and sneak attacks and stab chrysanthemums in the future. However, none of these things mattered to the dwarves, whether they were ice goblins with IQ comparable to those of Circle Nine or treacherous and cunning vixens who had cultivated for thousands of years, and there was no difference under their warhammers and axes.
Several velociraptor transformation beasts suddenly jumped out of a bush on the side of the road. The leader is an ordinary gray-blue low-level monster. From the point of view of being ambushed, they should be among those "smart" curiosity crawlers, but things are not absolute. Every cell in the body burned in an instant, and Mo Ler and the others, who were preparing for a fierce battle, had just taken out their weapons and put them in a posture, and in the next second, they decisively changed to an embarrassed expression.
The momentum of a high-flying velociraptor rushing forward suddenly disappeared in midair, and it looked as if the screen had been paused. Then the unfortunate creature let out a strange scream from his mouth, and in an unbelievable way, he quickly fell backwards, re-entered the bushes, and disappeared.
The two sides, who were preparing for the 300th round of the battle, fell into an eerie silence. I don't know if it's an illusion, but Moeller seems to have seen cold sweat and black lines on the door of the low-level monster's head.
Randall shook the battle axe in his hand, carefully approached Moeller and asked softly, "Patriarch, what happened just now?"
"Sa, this seemingly fierce monster must have been eaten by something even more ferocious. Moeller pursed his lips and said disapprehantly, "Anyway, get your weapons ready, cut them first!"
The other two dwarves let out a roar in unison, and followed Moller with his heavy weapons in stride towards the Hunter Creepers who had not yet recovered their senses. There are not many of these monsters, and Moeller is a level 5 warrior, and he was beaten on his back and broke his head and broke the blood flow after just one face, and collapsed in an instant.
It seems that the creatures outside ignore their own fighting there, which angers the boss deep in the bushes, and a huge black shadow rumbles on the ground and appears in front of everyone. This thing has a very strange appearance, and even the low-level monsters give people a relatively normal feeling compared to it.
However, the hot-blooded Nest didn't care about the appearance of the boss, and he was about to charge, he suddenly stopped with a stunned face, looked down at his weapon and exclaimed in disbelief: "This, what's going on, why are all the enchantment effects on my axe gone!?"
"Mine too. Randall, who was next to him, also said loudly.
"It's noisy, can't you fight without the enchantment effect!?" Mo Ler shouted angrily and angrily beat down the boss who took the initiative to appear as a dead person, and then stepped on the other party's head, "We are dwarves, and we can fight without magic!" (To be continued......)
