23. People who are contrary to the times (17)

As a unit that has been fighting on the front lines all year round, Iscarho's training content is also not lacking in dealing with illusions, but use this as an interview...... Clearly beyond their comprehension.

After all, Iskar is a little bit of a combat unit, essentially a reinforced Cleaner force, as their Creed Oath says: a short knife and poison in his right hand, a straw rope and thirty silver coins in his left hand, wielding a short knife at night and poisoning a dead man at dinner. When the time came, they would throw thirty silver coins before the gods and hang themselves with straw ropes.

These are a group of assassins and saboteurs who have fought many powerful enemies, they are still a group of Assasin affiliated with the Church, and they rarely smell the smell of the battlefield—the stench of gunsmoke, decay, and burning corpses, which condenses all madness. All the training courses of the Defence Force and the Guards are based on the premise of how to kill effectively on the battlefield, and as an army that makes extensive use of illusions, it is normal to think that the enemy will also use illusions to bully the enemy. It is even more reasonable to make the ability to see through illusions and cultivate the observation ability of officers and soldiers one of the priorities of education.

As the dictator's direct personal guard, whether it is the escort task on the table or the various shady work under the table, it has quite high requirements for the members' observation ability and the ability to recognize and react to illusions. For example, when assassinating dignitaries, Assassins often used illusions to conceal their figures, while creating illusions to distract the guards around them. For example, terrorists or enemy spies use illusions to cause riots and create social unrest.

Those who don't even have basic discernment can't expect to be able to cope with the above situations.

As for the examples of the use of illusions on the battlefield, there are many more. From the optical camouflage of an aviation battleship to the infiltration of a small unit, MDS or mages will also use it a lot when getting rid of enemy fire and pursuit. Like in the battle just now, Caspar saw through Heinkel's desperate blow, and in order to avoid this blow, he created the illusion of staying where he was while attacking, and at the same time used optical camouflage to cover the tactic of retreating from the main body - in the special operations textbook of the Defense Force, it is a relatively basic tactic of deceiving the enemy.

Simple, yet effective.

"See, you failed for two reasons, the first was to force yourself to do things you weren't used to, and the second was that you were too weak. ”

If Heinkel had been more experienced, or had experienced more frontal battles, Caspar's little trick might have screwed up, and he would have had no chance of taunting the priests as he did now. If Heinkel had arrived a minute earlier, even if it was more than ten seconds, then under the attack of the two priesthood robes users, Caspar would not be able to retreat with his whole body, and it would be debatable whether he would be bombarded to the scum on the spot in the face of the plural opponents who showed the miracle of plurality at the same time. If Father Andersen hadn't made the decision to stop the blocking force on his own at first, and had left Heinkel to fight together, Caspar wouldn't even show up, but would have just turned around and evacuated, if ......

However, reality is not allowed to be assumed, and there is no room for words such as "if" and "maybe". Caspar set a clever trap, an extremely high-stakes gamble. And then he won, and that's the reality, and there's no room for any obscurity.

As Caspar explains, the battle was a mistake from the start, and the Purges and Iscarho were ultimately troops specialized in assassination and destruction, and it was not their specialty to maneuver and win battles on unfamiliar battlefields with powerful and cunning opponents. Make a plan and arrange for them to eliminate the enemy of unknown strength in the underground waterways, and capture the princess intact, and there is no specific training beforehand - the guy who came up with this plan really doesn't know what is in his head, he thinks that the people who carry out the plan are the people, and as soon as he takes off his coat, he reveals the tights with the letter S painted on his chest, flying to the sky, infinitely powerful, and his eyes are dead? Even if human history is a history of challenging the limit, it is not surprising that there is a person who challenges the lower limit of IQ, but he doesn't even have complete information, and he dares to do it without evaluating the feasibility of the plan, which is really ......

As for the second reason for the defeat mentioned by Caspar, it is actually very far-fetched from an objective level. More precisely, Caspar is talking about conclusions mixed with lies, that is, so-called "true lies" used to mislead others into thinking.

Alexander Andersen;

Heinkel Worf;

They are not weak, and even using Alforheim's criterion, they do not fit the definition of "weak". On the contrary, these Judge Priests, who can dismantle tanks, warships, and even fortresses with their bare hands, are real monsters in the eyes of the elves, and they need to be suppressed by divisional and regimental forces, and they need MA and air warships to provide fire support throughout the process.

These two are undoubtedly strong men.

It's just that just as the most powerful frog is just an appetizer in front of the giant snake, all creatures in nature have opposing existences called "natural enemies", and the relationship of mutual reinforce exists between all living beings and all things.

Even the miracle-working saints are no exception.

In front of a demonic beast whose name has become taboo, completely denies all miracles and miracles, and can devour the heavens and the earth with its open mouth, and is named "End", it is just something that eats in its mouth.

The attributes are just the same - the truth is as simple as that, but there is no need to tell it to the dying person. For them, it is a great luxury to hear lies mixed with the truth.

Finally, their heads were taken off and hung on the Arc de Triomphe as a memento of the operation, so that everyone could see what would happen to those fools who dared to disobey the Lord, and let the rats know how many pounds and taels they had and who their opponents were.

Raising his right hand, the blade-like claws reflected bursts of cold light, and there was no doubt that the next blow would cut off two heads.

"Hey, hey. ”

As if sighing, as if begging for mercy.

"Can you give it a break, that kind of damn and undead, lingering look, I've seen enough today. ”

Looking at Father Hans Christian Andersen, who was swaying from a pool of blood, Caspar frowned, and his unhappy heart was revealed.

"What a stubborn bunch,...... Enough is enough. You cannot win, there is nowhere to run, there is nowhere to hide. A defeated dog should look like a defeated dog, and it is very easy to be fatal with one blow than to be crushed, plundered, ravaged, and tortured. The moment you don't even feel the pain, it's all over. Rather than die on an ugly day, it is in the end of people like you to die when you die. Give up, give up, human!"
