Chapter 778 Soldiers
Waiting is a happy thing in a few cases, such as waiting for the notification letter to arrive when you know you have good college entrance examination results, or sitting on the sofa on your birthday, waiting for your girlfriend to show you a gift from the dark.
Lu Yao heard these when he was in college.
It is the happiness that others are waiting for.
Lu Yao had neither a good college entrance examination admission letter nor a girlfriend or gifts.
So he hated waiting.
Especially when the one waiting is an artificial idiot.
This reminded Lu Yao of his unpleasant experience of trying to grab tickets on 12306 during the Chinese New Year.
It's getting dark.
Lu Yao went out for a walk, ate two skewers of grilled sausages, and drove a toy car near the community when no one was around. Then he listened to a live guitarist singing "Zebra, Zebra" on the street, and finally got a haircut, returning from a ponytail to a refreshing short hair.
He returned home feeling relieved.
Sitting in front of the computer, Lu Yao looked at the screen. It was still early.
It's only been three hours.
So Lu Yao decided to find a good way to kill time.
He moved the mouse and clicked "Know Yourself and Your Enemy" on the right side of the clay tablet.
[Are you sure you want to turn on "Know Yourself and Know Your Enemy"? ]
He nodded yes.
[Warm Tips: You will not be able to use miracles after "Know Yourself and Know Your Enemy" is turned on...]
[Please make sure you enter by yourself, or choose a proxy. ]
Lu Yao chose Huang Jia.
…
When he opened his eyes, Lu Yao was standing on the familiar grass again.
But now the range of vision and movement is much larger. There is a wilderness under my feet, and some undulating hills next to me. The visibility in the air is not very high, as if there is smog.
He raised his head and saw Shi Boqing still hovering above his head.
Lu Yao had experience this time, so he tried the props immediately, and the stone dice in the air started to spin immediately.
Displayed as 3 points.
I'm lucky.
Can use items or abilities 3 times.
Lu Yao first released the core combat force Xing Tian into amber. Then he discovered that the soldier card could be used here at will without occupying the quota.
He summoned out the three high-level soldier spirits obtained from An.
A captain, two sergeants, and three biochemical warriors dressed in black immediately guarded Lu Yao.
He then took out the [Immortal Slaying Sword] and equipped the captain with it.
This mythical item has a damage of 2500+ and cannot be equipped on Xing Tian who is dual wielding weapons, but it can be used on soldier spirits.
Captain Bingling waved the flying sword, inserted it into his back, and put it in the black sword case condensed from his body.
The [Form Switching] that comes with the Soldier Spirit is indeed a magical combat skill that can work seamlessly with various combat tools and partners.
This time Lu Yao waited for a long time, but no enemy appeared.
Could it be that the mode has changed? Lu Yao suddenly recalled that last time when he [Know Yourself and Your Enemy] rated himself as a Brigadier General, the difficulty was also calibrated to this level.
It seems to be different from before.
Lu Yao began to let Xing Tian lead the way, while the three soldiers in the back continued to serve as his personal bodyguards.
The group moved a short distance and immediately saw that there were soldier spirits patrolling among the hills not far ahead. They all had red names and were obviously enemies.
Except for the hill, the rest of the area was shrouded in darkness, and there were no other living creatures or buildings.
The enemy is on the hill.
The hills were the territory of the enemy's soldiers and spirits, and along the way there were two-person-high, trident-shaped buildings. They were made entirely of silver metal, with a layer of blue light arcs lingering on the surface, like some kind of strange-shaped electric tower.
【Psychic Guardian】
Lu Yao had a headache.
The damage of this defensive device is similar to that of the Immortal-Slaying Sword, but it can lock onto fixed-point attacks through light spots. When combined with a large number of flexible spirit weapons, the effect is 1+1 greater than 2.
It seems that this time we have to break through the defense line and penetrate this hill stronghold.
Lu Yao was careful to keep a distance from the area and was still observing, but the other party had already launched the first attack.
A dozen soldier spirits rushed over from the nearby commanding heights. When they ran at high speed, their center of gravity was extremely low, like some kind of strange species.
Lu Yao ordered Xing Tian and the Three Soldiers to pull back.
Only after confirming that they were out of the enemy's rear support range did Lu Yao give the order to start fighting.
Xing Tian held an axe and a shield and chopped down the group of soldiers in just a few minutes.
Lu Yao sent another soldier spirit to lure the monster away.
The tactics he adopted were very simple, mainly pulling the enemy's forces to gradually pull them in and complete the partial destruction. This onion peeling tactic was designed to destroy the enemy's living forces as much as possible.
However, this tactic soon encountered resistance.
Xing Tian killed 112 soldier spirits, but not a single soldier card was revealed. Those soldier cards were left on the hill, and the soldier spirits would condense at the same place after they died in battle.
That's their core lifeline.
Without conquering strategic locations, this trial cannot be completed.
Lu Yao then realized that it was no wonder that there was no limit on the use of military cards.
Under normal circumstances, without the hundreds of soldier spirits obtained from the last trial, there is no way to fight against the huge number of soldier spirits here - they will continue to resurrect and their numbers are extremely large!
This time it's a real battlefield confrontation.
Then charge! At Lu Yao's command, Xing Tian charged into the army's position alone. He was immediately surrounded by the army and spirits, and a fierce battle broke out with the enemy.
Under Lu Yao's command and control, Xing Tian chopped up a [Psychic Guard] while being besieged by all the soldiers and spirits, and the intensity of the battlefield suddenly escalated.
Huge black crosses appeared in the air above the battlefield.
They kept flashing, blasting out a series of brilliant explosions and smoke-filled clouds on Xing Tian's body.
Lu Yao in the distance had a solemn expression on his face.
He counted.
Fourteen [Psychic Bombs] have already been fired at Xing Tian.
According to the lowest intensity bombing, each bomb causes 20 million damage regardless of defense, and the total cumulative casualties are at least 280 million.
If Xing Tian did not have the ability to fight to the death [Xing Yao Wu Qiansui], he would have been beaten back into the holy coffin and resurrected by now.
Lu Yao frowned.
The strength of the Commodore class is much higher than before.
Xing Tian just carried on with his red health points of 0, and madly killed the enemy soldiers in the sea of corpses and blood. Wherever he went, there were scattered soldier signs.
After being killed on the battlefield, these soldier spirits did not resurrect.
However, Xing Tian encountered a new obstacle.
The two units attacking it this time are different from before.
In addition to a layer of white exoskeleton on their body surface, their smooth faces are printed with a white "schoolmaster" and have an ability that lieutenants do not have.
…
[Reorganization of Soldiers and Spirits]
Recombine and connect the soldier spirits to form a [Soldier] to fight together. The effect of the ability is related to the level of the ability.
…
Lu Yao saw it.
These two school-level soldier spirits, one colonel and the other major, have thousands of light streams emanating from their bodies. These light streams connect the soldier spirits in the rear one by one.
The numerous black warriors merged with each other, and finally condensed and attached to the two officers, quickly turning into two huge monsters.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The monster that the major had reassembled was a strange black square. Its body was as smooth as obsidian and had a glassy texture. Its four legs were sturdy and short, and when it took a step, the ground shook slightly.
There is an oval hole on each of the five sides of its body, and the edges are some kind of white bones, which looks quite strange.
This soldier could spew out a feather-shaped black fire through the holes in his body, burning Xingtian's body so that it festered and peeled off, revealing the white bones with red blood inside. A thin layer of golden spells could be seen on the bones.
Lu Yao obtained the monster panel.
…
[Soldier LV199] Four-sided leader HP: 200 million/200 million
Mana: 5 million/5 million
Damage: 6778 Defense: 6221 Speed: 99 [Undead]
【Spirit of Soldiers】
Symbiote
Threat Assessment
[Form Switching LV10]
[Psychic Bombing LV5 (10000/10000)]
【Fire Quest】
It spews out extremely destructive fire that can burn and break the enemy's rule complex.
…
Lu Yao's face turned black when he saw this.
[Fire Scale] is an ability at the rule complex level. No wonder Xing Tian was burned beyond human form.
[Soldier] is a giant war beast formed by the fusion of soldiers and spirits.
Lu Yao had had some concerns about this before. The soldiers and spirits worked together very well, using each other as weapons and connecting tools without any hindrance... but now, after further reorganization, they have become his enemies.
Still two!
The soldier constructed by the colonel turned into a five-story-high pot-bellied jar.
Its surface is black and smooth, and there are black and white swirl patterns on the body of the can. If you look at it for a long time, you will easily have an illusion that there are eyes in those swirls, staring at all directions.
Black rods grew out of the top of the jar, with a black bud-like mass at the end. The surface of the bud had strands of white swirls, emitting gradually expanding black and white halos, as if it could bloom completely at any time.
This soldier, who seemed to be still in the growth stage, made Lu Yao feel more pressured.
…
[Soldier LV199] Covered with branches HP: 100 million/100 million
Mana: 9.92 million/9.92 million
Damage: 15449 Defense: 4996 Speed: 100 [Undead]
【Spirit of Soldiers】
Symbiote
Threat Assessment
[Form Switching LV10]
[Psychic Bombing LV3 (6000/6000)]
[Ring of Obstruction]
By constructing and stretching the branches, the radiation range of the aura is granted [Disarm] and [Spatial Blockade]. The effect is related to the level of this ability.
…
This ability is even more important.
Lu Yao focused his attention on the entry and received a detailed description.
The [Space Blockade] that comes with the [Ring of Barrier] can prevent people from even opening the item bar within its radiation range, and making it impossible to escape by using space abilities like [Golden Light on the Ground].
If Xing Tian is completely covered by its [Blind Branches], he will become a living target who can neither resist nor escape.
Lu Yao became more nervous than ever before.
Xing Tian, who used to only be able to crush opponents, this time encountered an enemy that was even more powerful than him.
The headless winged man can cause a small amount of damage to [Bi Man Zhi], but cannot break the defense of the meat shield [Si Fang Shou] at all.
When the Bimanzhi formation is fully deployed, it is difficult for Xing Tian to deal with it. Once covered by the [Obstruction Ring], it will be difficult to turn over.
If it is Xing Tian in his complete form, he can also kill them.
But right now, Xing Tian is still under spatial suppression and blockade in [Know Yourself and Know Your Enemy], and can only exert half of his combat power.
…
When the situation was extremely unfavorable, Lu Yao made the decision to give it a try.
He used the last of his quota to take out an item.
【Money-making Whip】.
Lu Yao handed it to the captain soldier spirit with the strongest combat capability next to him, and controlled it to bypass the front battlefield and cut in from the side.
Faced with the soldier spirits, [Sifangshou] and [Bimanzhi] didn't care - their core goal was to deal with the biggest threat, the feathered man.
This is due to the spiritual characteristics of soldiers.
[Threat Assessment] will prioritize clearing nearby individuals or groups with the highest power levels.
Lu Yao controlled the soldier spirit, and while the branches of [Bai Man Zhi] were whipping him, he violently swung the [Money-Making Whip] in his hand.
A flash of golden light!
[Covering the branches] Suddenly the whole body stiffened and the branches solidified.
Cracks appeared on its huge body, and then it collapsed like a bombed building, turning into ashes, leaving behind a pile of military plaques.
Lu Yao felt relieved.
It’s really useful!
As expected of Zhao Gongming's unique skill of sneaking up on people! He quickly continued to operate and deal with the other soldier.
