Chapter 103: Please give me a dozen of such confidants

"Oh no! The demon soldiers are attacking!"

Just when Zhang Yang and the old man were studying the defense mechanism of the fortress, the man who was in charge of keeping watch at the highest point of the fortress suddenly shouted, and then rang the warning gong. A woman with quick hands also lit a signal smoke at a place that had been placed long ago.

Zhang Yang and the old man looked at each other in bewilderment. What was going on? It had only been an hour since the demon soldiers were defeated.

"This is not right. Since the establishment of Black Rock Fortress, every time the Mirage Clan's demon soldiers were repelled, they would not attack again until half a day later at the earliest. Especially since they suffered heavy casualties this time, it doesn't make sense for them to attack in such a short time. Boy, are you hiding something from me?"

The old man is indeed experienced and hits the nail on the head with one sentence.

And he was not wrong. Zhang Yang knew what was going on at the first moment.

There must be a reason why the Mirage Clan's demon soldiers ignored the huge casualties in the previous battle and launched a second attack in such a short time. After all, the demon soldiers are flesh and blood and need morale. They will not be indifferent to their dead companions. How can they attack just like that? That is too against common sense.

So, there can only be one reason.

Zhang Yang's identity as Qianlong has been exposed, or the other party is just suspicious, but this is enough. Now that the game has not even started, he has killed a Qianlong opponent. The rewards are unimaginable and will drive anyone to do this, including Zhang Yang himself.

However, facing the old man at this moment, there was no way he could say something stupid like "he was a hidden dragon". He just showed a rather innocent and confused expression.

Before the old man could start to attack again, one of his sons-in-law suddenly shouted in panic, "Father-in-law, it's bad! Those demon soldiers seem to be carrying a huge amount of firewood. They are setting the mountain on fire!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the morale in the Bald Ridge Fortress collapsed to the freezing point. Everyone panicked and some even thought about escaping from Bald Ridge immediately. Only Zhang Yang and the old man remained calm.

"Okay, I have a plan. Uncle, you can comfort them. Escape down the mountain at this time is undoubtedly suicide."

Zhang Yang could only say this, and then continued to use his mana to open up the interior of the fortress, until all ten units of mana were used up, and a cellar-like cave appeared on the Bald Ridge.

It is two meters high and covers an area of ​​about one hundred square meters. It has only one entrance and exit and four shooting holes. It is quite stable. As long as you retreat inside, the enemy cannot attack at all except by fire.

After sending all the women and children in, the old man began to gather the children of the Qiao family to formulate a battle strategy. Zhang Yang stood expressionlessly on the edge of the cliff, watching the mighty demon soldiers coming towards him.

There were not many troops, only about 5,000, which further confirmed his previous judgment.

Because the game hasn't started yet, although there are already 982 potential dragons fighting for the world in place, since they are potential dragons, they will naturally not be noticed by others, and it is even more impossible for them to be the ones who hold heavy military power at the moment.

Therefore, the fact that the other party was able to muster 5,000 soldiers and horses was actually quite outstanding among all the hidden dragons.

These 5,000 demon soldiers moved very fast, and only a thousand of them were carrying dry firewood. Their target was the Bald Ridge Fortress. However, Zhang Yang did not find any commander or Qianlong among them, and there was no hint in the village construction order.

But it doesn’t matter. Five thousand demon soldiers is such a big piece of fat meat.

At this time, the old man had already arranged a strategy. Including himself, 23 heavy crossbows were placed on the edge of the cliff, ready to shoot. If the enemy wanted to set a fire, they must have piled firewood under the cliff first. This was the best time to shoot. Although it was still impossible to stop the enemy's goal, killing one would break even, and killing two would be a profit.

"Everyone retreat, don't waste crossbow arrows. And you, uncle, everyone go into the inner castle. No one is allowed to come out without my order."

Zhang Yang suddenly spoke.

"Hey, kid, who do you think you are?"

This time, one of the old man's sons-in-law was finally dissatisfied. It was fine if you were to give them orders, but you thought you could command a famous general? Zhang Yang wanted to turn around and cast a spell to knock this guy out, but he didn't turn around in the end. This was not the right time to establish his authority, and this guy was also his brother-in-law, so he gave him a chance.

"Shut up and back off."

The cunning old man waited for three seconds, and seeing that Zhang Yang didn't say anything, he waved his hand and the whole family squeezed into the inner castle.

Soon, the demon soldiers came into range, and they immediately separated out a thousand large shield soldiers from their ranks and formed a shield formation to cover the approaching demon soldiers carrying firewood. But what was strange was that they did not throw the firewood under the cliff, but threw it more than a hundred meters away from the cliff, where it quickly piled up into a small hill.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Yang was extremely shocked, because he suddenly realized that a confidant of his appeared opposite him! A genius who was also unable to master the fireball spell, so he was forced to find another way to use the soul force field to simulate the mana structure, cross the first closed circuit circle, and directly enter the second closed circuit circle, so that he could release a more powerful fireball spell.

And there is no doubt that the opponent's soul strength is also A-supernatural, otherwise he would not be able to come to the supernatural trial and would not be able to get an admission ticket.

With a grin, Zhang Yang retreated. Since he was a close friend, of course he knew both himself and his enemy.

He knew very well how powerful this rustic fireball spell was, but he also knew the drawbacks of this fireball spell. "Brother, thank you for taking this dangerous path for me. Otherwise, if I do this again in the future, I might be the one who dies."

Summoning the golden scale, Zhang Yang consumed another 200,000 energy points without saying a word, purified 10 units of mana, then lay behind the rock and observed carefully.

At this time, the firewood had been stacked, and dozens of demon archers fired rockets. In a blink of an eye, flames rose and thick smoke billowed.

Through the thick smoke, Zhang Yang saw hundreds of tall demon soldiers holding large shields forming an impenetrable array and approaching the fire.

One hundred meters,

Eighty meters, sixty meters, this is the distance. People who don’t know the inside story can’t see any clues, but Zhang Yang has played this game countless times, so he can accurately grasp every step of the opponent.

"Release the soul force field."

"compression."

"Build a second closed circle and activate the curved force field. I guess this guy is using magic power to support it. How insidious! If we suck such a large pile of fire, almost several thousand cubic meters of fire, into the curved force field, compress it, and then throw it up, it would be equivalent to ten heavy artillery shells. This mountaintop can be flattened by more than ten meters."

While Zhang Yang was judging, he was also quickly using his magic power to nurture and create an armor-piercing cone. He didn't need to fight against the terrifying fireball, nor did he need to find the true location of his confidant. It was enough to just know when the other party would start to construct the fourth closed circle.

Soon, a fire dragon appeared on the huge Flame Mountain, followed by a second and a third, as if an invisible mouth was swallowing it.

That giant bonfire can generate hundreds of cubic meters of flames per second, and the swallowing speed of the curved force field can reach 50 cubic meters per second, which is even more proficient than Zhang Yang.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

This is incredible. This is truly a close friend.

In just one minute, the pile of firewood was almost completely burned up by the swallowing, and at the same time, a terrible fireball was formed in the air more than 150 meters away.

"Okay, I was wrong. This power is at least as powerful as a small nuclear bomb."

Zhang Yang didn't dare to wait any longer, because the opponent's soul force field was obviously stronger than his, perhaps it was A-level. In this case, he might not have time to react before the opponent had built a stronger and faster fourth closed circle.

"Right now!"

Zhang Yang suddenly burst out his soul force field, and the armor-piercing cone that was nurtured by three units of mana was like an illusion, piercing the fireball in an instant.

Hmm, no movement, a meat bun hitting a dog and never coming back? Zhang Yang broke out in a cold sweat, he knew he had met his match this time, that confidant had so much mana in his hands, he maintained the curved force field like an iron wall, a piercing cone with the power of a top-level magic weapon penetrated it but didn't even make a splash.

At the critical moment, Zhang Yang also gave it his all, covering the fireball with his entire soul force field. As a result, the opponent's soul force field had such a firm control over the fireball that no one could get in or take it away.

He could even feel the other party's mocking and complacent mood from the confrontation of soul force fields.

He was completely powerless and could only watch as the other party completed the construction of the fourth closed circle at a faster speed, and a huge fireball flew up.

"You've been fooled!"

Zhang Yang roared, and the soul force field instantly penetrated the big fireball, because at this moment the opponent had already retracted the soul force field. After all, the fireball had already started the engine and set the landing point coordinates, which was equivalent to the bullet being fired and the dust settling.

But Zhang Yang was waiting for this opportunity, because he knew that within the fourth closed circle of the fireball spell, there was a magic structure that could be tampered with.

Thinking back to the beginning, he accidentally detonated a fireball released by an orc mage in mid-air prematurely. This was a discovery that belonged to Zhang Yang himself, just like a biologist accidentally discovering penicillin in a laboratory. It was accidental and coincidental, and not a result that could be obtained through a large number of experiments and deductions.

The Orc Tribe spent nearly a month researching it. Even though they copied the Spear of Confinement with an 80% similarity, they still couldn't figure out why the fireball could explode prematurely in mid-air, and its power was at least tripled.

It will not know, and will never know, including this confidant in front of it who is obviously more powerful than Zhang Yang.

The fireball carrying huge power soared into the sky, rising hundreds of meters in an instant. Not to mention that this confidant's fourth closed circle was so clever that he even used a parabola.

But at this moment, Zhang Yang's soul force field finally succeeded in finding the magic structure, just like pressing a switch.

0.001 seconds.

He retracted his soul force field, and then there was a terrifying sonic boom that shook the earth and roared like a tsunami.

The huge shock wave directly sent Zhang Yang flying from a distance of 150 meters. If a big hand had not caught him at the right time, he would have fallen off the cliff and died before he could accomplish his mission.

Then, he knew nothing.
