Chapter 680: Fighting Bugs
In fact, Alicia was silent about Hannah's activities in the Padheurdes Wasteland, and let the students come here to test as originally planned, and by the way, it was also helpless to use their combat power, because of the loss of contact with the Golden Shadow, the situation inside the wasteland is naturally unknown; most of the elite of the ground forces of the Tanzanian Empire have been incorporated into the command of Dubis to participate in the voyage battle, and the ordinary army is not very good at dealing with Hannah and his men, and it is possible that it will attract the attention of the bugs because of the large number of people; the Crista is still under repair, while the other two air warships need to patrol the Alliance's long coastline in case of a possible attack by the Dark Empire.
Therefore, the little queen of the dignified Birea Empire, who holds the highest power in the Western Continent, is now in an embarrassing dilemma of having no troops to adjust. It is not surprising that she would hit her ideas on her classmates who have gone through various trials outside of specifications and whose average strength is above level 3.
Sophia guessed the situation, but she didn't say it. Because Princess Pink knows that the purpose of Hannah and the others' actions is always to use limited energy to find fault with the alliance infinitely, and the lively big city is the best target of the other party, but they deliberately ran to the wilderness full of insects, and they will not make a special trip to study the ecology of insects, right?
The other party must be secretly planning something, and Xiao Dark can't be contacted, Elysia will remain silent and come to the trial with everyone, in order to lead people to make some trouble for Hannah at the right time.
"Well, it doesn't matter, it's not the first time anyway. Chrissy shrugged her shoulders with a bored face. "But before we can go any further, we'll have to kill the big bugs that are wandering around to be at ease. I don't want to be disturbed by the crawling crowd that interrupts my meal or bedtime. Alicia, don't mess with your cute girl just yet; Let the others practice their hands first. β
"Okay. β
Chrissy clapped her hands and gathered everyone in front of her, and after pulling the reins of her mount to stop moving, she said loudly, "Listen to the old lady, rookies." The scout team found a swarm of bugs not far ahead, and although they showed no signs of attacking, I decided to strike first to avoid being stabbed by the other party. Rejoice, boy, your long-awaited opportunity to show your heroic side in front of your sister has finally arrived! Now, follow me. Get ready for battle!"
There was no cheer, not even a response, and the students, who felt a little nervous, silently followed Chrissy. Now the people of the Western Continent already know that those bugs are terrible creatures in another plane. As for the vicious creatures in other planes, everyone basically has no good feelings.
The demons are one of the representatives.
By the time the silent army reached the small mound that Grana and Moonsong had found, the swarm had not yet left. They wandered aimlessly across the open ground in the distance, but they didn't dare to go too far from each other. Occasionally, he will raise his body and make a loud chirp. It looks like a swarm of lost ants.
"Historical records record that the hive should be deeper in the wasteland, and it is impossible to encounter insects in such a marginal area. After flipping off Bai Ya's back, Alicia walked over to Chriss, who was standing on the small mound and watched, and reminded, "Mentor, they must have been affected by something to become like this. Would you like to find out about this first?"
Chrissy bit into the chocolate bar and muttered for a long time, then shook her head and said, "No, let's kill them first." These big bugs are not very aggressive because they have lost contact with the brood, and if left unchecked, it is always a hidden danger. Besides, even if you want to investigate what caused them to blow up their nests. You can't swagger up to the other party and ask questions while smiling and pretending to be cute, right?"
"That's right, it's not a fairy tale where even the trees on the side of the road can speak and show the protagonist the way. No matter how much you talk to the bugs, they won't answer you. Alicia said as she suddenly sparkled from her eyes, clasped her hands firmly on her chest, and said excitedly, "So it's the best choice to cut them out and take out the heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys inside, and examine them one by one!"
"Is there something wrong with you?" said the embarrassed Chrissy as she looked at the smug protΓ©gΓ© beside her, who had fallen into some strange state, and muttered in a cold sweat.
Fortunately, this situation did not last long, and William quickly came over from behind and interrupted the daily trend of the two: "Teacher Chrissy, the formation has been arranged, and it will be ...... at any time By the way, Alicia, why do you look so scary, hey!?"
When the blonde girl heard this, she immediately changed her expression to a smiling face, put her hands behind her waist behind her chest, tilted her head sideways, and made many colorful small bubbles around her, and said softly in her sweet and greasy voice: "Mi woo, Brother William, you must have read it wrong." Ellie has always been so cute, huh?"
"Well, I read it wrong. β
After you can't sell cuteness to the bugs, turn the target to the boy who is 100% successful?Chris glanced at the two of them and coughed and interrupted, "Don't make a fuss, you two go back to the team, and when I give the signal, let the little bunnies and those curious crawlers have a good time." β
Although there were horses, most of the students did not have formal knightly equipment, and many of them only knew how to ride horses, which did not mean that they were proficient in horsemanship, so Chrissy abandoned the tempting idea of having everyone charge on flat ground, and instead adopted a traditional defensive formation.
After all, the former would have terrible consequences if the storm formation was broken up, while the latter was much safer. Originally, the students had a huge advantage on their side, and they couldn't afford to take any special risks.
When everyone walked from behind the mound to the sight of the insects, they immediately let out a sharp hissing that the glass would be broken to slag on the spot, and then stepped forward with a rapid pace, as if they wanted to give this group of young boys and girls a deep hug - quite a warm welcome, if the other party is a beautiful and cute girl, whoever will be in a mood will become high in an instant.
It's a pity that what greeted everyone was a group of strange creatures like insects with colorful teeth, teeth and claws, looking strange and menacing, which was really a bad scenery. But they also succeeded in raising everyone's emotions in an instant. At the same time, the secretion of adrenaline is increased.
"Prepare for battle!" Chriss, who was at the front of the line, completely ignored William's request to let her go to the back row, raised the staff in her hand and shouted, "Remote attention, give me a fight to the death!"
Dense and colorful spells hit the insects in the face. Immediately let them roll on their backs. Chrissy suddenly erected a thick and hard stone wall on the way forward of the insects, and the earth-shattering impact sound made everyone embarrassed at the same time, and she couldn't help but feel a trace of egg pain (Mi pain).
But immediately two insects tumbled from behind the stone wall and continued to charge.
These insects are worthy of being Xiaoqiang's close relatives, and in the face of the indiscriminate bombardment of many level 3 spells and a small number of level 4 spells, they are only missing arms and legs, and none of them have received a bento. And even if they lack arms and legs, they still bounce and rush forward until they are hit.
These bugs are flexible. Most spells are missed, not many hit them, and occasionally they will try to resist with their forelimbs or worm claws when they attack at a vital point (such as the door of the brain). Therefore, the effect of everyone's attack is not very ideal.
The only ones who had made a difference were Chrissy and Moon Song - what, you said Alicia? The girl was yawning and throwing around with ordinary level 3 spells, and she didn't have the slightest intention of serious fighting.
Well, if she's going to fight seriously. The crowd barely could even touch the ashes of the worms. How do you say exercise?
After another insect was nailed into the head by Yue Ge several arrows in a row and slammed into the ground, the distance between the two sides was less than twenty meters left. Seeing this, William resolutely stepped forward and pulled out the two delicate one-handed swords at his waist: "Warriors, prepare! Raise your weapons and smash all those insects to pieces!"
However, it was not the boys' earth-shattering roars that answered the young emperor, but the rumbling footsteps - the demons on both wings of the team, led by Vaqisi's three-headed dog, rushed straight towards the swarm, and had the momentum of a bloody battle with them.
Icarus also wanted to go along, but she was immediately spotted and stopped by Alicia.
If the Queen of the Sky strikes, I'm afraid these bugs will be wiped out in seconds.
The three-headed dog in the lead raised his right front paw like a fly, and the red carapace that led the way, waving the worm claw, jumped into the air and tried to land on itself to cause trouble, and when it moved its paws away, there was only a large pile of red, yellow, white, I don't know what it wasβYa responded decisively and perfectly to William's call.
Seeing this, William was speechless for a while. The Tanzanian Empire can't come up with a large summon of creatures, so the warriors are always at the forefront. Of course. This is one of the reasons why their warriors are the strongest on the continent.
Other forces also follow this pattern of long-range strikes followed by warriors or knights starting to charge after long-range strikes, and it can be said that this is a habitual practice of human beings.
Until today.
Gather creatures that have made a pact with the mage and start a charge to disrupt the enemy's formation, and then the brave warrior will follow behind to reap the harvest. Occasionally, those who resist have to face the numerical superiority of the warriors, what a method of undisciplined discipline that goes against the chivalry of a fair duel - Vakis couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat as she looked at Alicia who raised her hand to her lips and smiled charmingly.
And some of the demons are also ranged spells, and they rush up to the same level as an extension of fire support. So when William, who was full of pain, rushed to the center of the battlefield with the boys with the same expressions, the already weak insect swarm had already collapsed, and it looked even more chaotic than before.
However, Ilya didn't care too much, and he tried to get close to a bug with two broken legs, and finally succeeded in killing the opponent.
William, who had just finished handling a bug nearby, looked at the black-haired boy and didn't come forward to talk. He, Elijah, and Grana are among the few students who can kill bugs on their own, and the others are not even the hunky Norman (who are tanks and don't have much output). Therefore, the three of them did not choose to team up with others, but chose a relatively dangerous heads-up.
In addition, not far away, a bad teacher who is obviously a mage can still get close to Haibian in the face of big insects, and a beautiful blonde girl who is holding a shiny two-handed sword and shouting on the battlefield and selling cuteness everywhere, they are out-of-specification existences. Just ignore it.
After more than twenty minutes, the battle was over.
A few unlucky bastards were sent to Michelle's healing team, while Alicia pulled Cecilia to the battlefield where the air was full of fishy smells, pointing to the stumps and broken arms of various hunting stumps on the ground and saying to the girl: "Excuse me, let's see what kind of impact they have, why don't you run so far away to deliberately come out to find a lottery?"
"Wow, it's disgusting......" Cecilia couldn't help but cover her mouth and frowned. "Anyway, what do you want me to do, I'm not good at studying bugs. β
"But they're good at medicine, aren't they? Even if these bugs evolve enormously, they're still bugs. will simply be affected by certain medications. The smell was really unpleasant, and Alicia couldn't help but cover her nose, "You just need to find out what kind of effect this drug has on the bugs." β
"You're chasing ducks to the shelves, hey!" Cecilia grumbled dissatisfied, "I'll help you find out the medicine that might be there." Don't even think about the latter request. β
The little queen patted the other party's arm and nodded, "Enough." As long as you can find out what kind of drug it is. There must be a way to replicate it. Next, let's find a random nest of bugs and experiment with it. β
Sure enough, Cecilia immediately burned after hearing this topic, and rolled up her sleeves without caring about the lady's image and said resolutely: "Of course! Lend Icarus to me, and give you the result in thirty minutes." β
[This product is really out of specification, there is wood!]
With the help of a few boys, Cecilia used various tools sponsored by Alicia and Icarus's own detector to do many things such as "beep-" and "beep-" and [beep-] on the scattered insect corpses in the yellow earth. While giving humans a better understanding of Sagron's sufficiency, it also caused most of the girls plus a few of the boys to vomit violently.
Fabiano, who was with his lover nearby, turned pale, but he still endured it and did not leave.
Finally, Cecilia, who was busy with everything, shook off the slimy unknown liquid on her hand and wiped it clean, and then came to Alysia and the others who were waiting for news not far away, and grinned slightly in everyone's expectant eyes: "Hmm." Although there were a lot of substances contained in the bug's body mixed in the middle, in the end, Icarus was asked to help find it. Elysia. You're right, these bugs are indeed affected by some kind of drug. And it's incredible that the effects of this drug can be described as amazing. I found only about one gram of the drug in a fairly intact bug, and it was this gram of the drug that made the bug look like this. The man who invented this drug was an absolute genius!"
[The guy who can make Cecilia praise so much...... Monil, the chief alchemist of the Cursed Sect that Shadow once mentioned, and the person who figured up the scroll that summoned Sister Xiaoyu, could he have done it? Maybe the research and development of the Dark Empire's Warcraft army and the replication of Dubai Ya are also inseparable from him, and he is really a headache. γ
Alicia tugged at her hair and groaned for a while, raised her head and asked seriously, "Cecilia, can you make a copy of this drug?"
"Who do you think you're talking to?" Cecilia, who had found a good opponent, clearly saw a raging flame behind her, and she slammed her right fist into her left palm, and replied confidently with a confident face, "Take out all the jars and jars that belong to me in your bracelet, and let's start work now, and make sure to copy them before entering the depths of the wasteland...... No, make a more effective potion!"
"Ah, somehow it ignited. Fabiano, who was nearby, reluctantly reluctantly raised his hand and said, "She always does this every time she mentions a novel potion. Alicia, you deliberately provoked her, right?"
The blonde girl was about to speak, but the genius alchemy girl over there suddenly hugged the young man in front of everyone, stood on tiptoe and offered a kiss: "I'm sorry, Xiaofa." I know it's going to make you lonely and bored, and it's made a bad impression on you, but I can't help it, I can't control my inner impulse. So please wait for me a while, okay?"
The beloved girl said this, and Fabiano, who was viciously stared at by the people who were almost blinded, naturally couldn't force anything anymore - not to mention that he didn't stop Cecilia from thinking - he gently touched the head of his childhood friend and smiled: "No matter how long it takes, I will wait for you, you can develop it as much as you want! If this potion is a very crucial thing in a plan of the Dark Empire, this is a great achievement." (squints at the little queen) "You say yes, Alicia?"
[Your sister, I actually asked for a reward for my sister, you're going to die in the rhythm, hey!, but I really won't let her do it for nothing......]
After sighing deeply, Alicia decisively threw away the festival as usual: "So, how about the reward of fifty lollipops? Wait, wait, I have the master, you can't just push it...... Miwoo ββ!!" (To be continued......
