Chapter 223
Chapter 223
Xuanyuan Xingyao simply ignored the rare childishness of General Ouyang and Mao Yunkai, and turned to discuss with Nangong Tao what to do next.
"Father-in-law, what do you think, should we wait or take the initiative to attack?"
Ouyang Yi and Mao Yunkai, who were originally fighting, stopped what they were doing after hearing Xuanyuan Xingyao's words. They casually pulled a stool and sat down waiting for Nangong Tao's answer.
"Wait, it's too difficult to attack the city, so why not wait a while? Besides, I don't think Fate will let us wait too long."
Nangong Tao said meaningfully.
"General Nangong is referring to today..."
Although Mao Yunkai did not finish his words, none of the people present were fools and they all understood what he meant.
Nangong Tao nodded and answered silently.
Today, whether it was Xuanyuan Xingyao who easily broke the formation, or Nangong Jing who directly controlled many magical beasts and doubled their magic power, Fate would be unable to sit still.
Whether it is a test or he thinks that the monk army can take them down directly, Fate will definitely take the next step, and it will happen in a short time.
"But with the strength of our troops, can we resist those monks?"
Ouyang Yi, who had almost experienced a team wipeout, said somewhat unconfidently.
Although Fate is at a disadvantage in terms of military strength, when facing monks, you cannot win just by having more people.
When they faced that special team for the first time, Shui Ling and Ou Ya were almost wiped out if Mao Yunkai and Ouyang Yi had not retreated in time.
They were not too far away from Quyan City, and they might not be able to hold on until Nangong Tao led his troops to support them.
The second time, although with the help of Nangong Tao, the opponent's main general was tied down, it was still a very difficult battle and the losses were heavy.
"Why can't we resist? Before, without the help of these Imperial Capital students and monsters, we were able to resist. Now with their help, how can we not resist???"
Nangong Tao also knew that Ouyang Yi had lost some confidence because he had been losing before.
He was not angry about Ouyang Yi's discouraging words. He just looked at Ouyang Yi seriously and answered in a resounding voice.
Nangong Tao's words gave Ouyang Yi an instant boost of confidence. Yes, they had managed to hold on to it with such difficulty before, and now with so many people helping, it was impossible for them to fail.
Here, Nangong Tao and others were discussing how to defend if Fate attacked again.
On the other side, Qiao Lingqi was talking to several other generals about everything that happened on the battlefield today.
"You said Xuanyuan Xingyao and his men easily broke through the soldiers' defenses? How is that possible? If Xuanyuan Xingyao had that ability, we wouldn't have fought for so long at the Shuiling border."
Qu Yang, who had fought with Xuanyuan Xingyao and others at the Shuiling border before, did not believe what Qiao Linqi said at all. He thought it was impossible.
Although the other generals did not speak, their expressions revealed doubt, and it was obvious that they did not really believe what Qiao Linqi said.
"I'm not the only one on the battlefield today. You can ask anyone and find out. How could I joke about such a thing?"
Qiao Linqi's words made everyone's faces solemn, and the disdain on Qu Yang's face gradually disappeared.
Yeah, there's no need for Qiao Linqi to joke about this. Could it be true? But how is it possible???
"This isn't the worst part. The worst part is the magical beasts they summoned. Their magic power is much stronger than that of ordinary magical beasts."
"What do you mean by that???"
As soon as Qiao Linqi finished speaking, Mao Wuwei, the commander of the monk army who had remained silent, also looked over, and Qu Yang even cried out in surprise.
"Yesterday, a group of cultivators came to support us from Longying. We suspected they were students from the Imperial Capital Academy. So at first, I didn't take them seriously, thinking they were just a group of students. But who knows..."
When Qiao Linqi thought about what happened on the battlefield just now, his face still looked a little bad.
"We all know what you're talking about. Why don't you keep talking? Stopping here is making me anxious."
Qu Yang was really anxious when he saw Qiao Linqi stopped talking mid-sentence.
"Who knew that the magical beasts they summoned would have much stronger magic power than ordinary magical beasts? There are even some magical beasts that could never break through the fourth level in their lifetime, but their magic power has reached the fifth or even sixth level."
“This is impossible!!!”
Everyone said in a deep voice.
It is not impossible for a low-level monster to break through the limit and reach the intermediate level, but the probability is very small, it can be said that it is basically impossible.
These several magical beasts have broken through their boundaries. This is simply impossible, unless...
"You mean, they also have a way to double a person's combat power?"
Mao Wuwei, who had been drinking tea quietly, finally put down his teacup, looked at Qiao Linqi and said in a deep voice.
Qiao Linqi nodded seriously, then quickly shook his head.
Qiao Linqi nodded and shook his head, making it difficult to understand what he meant.
Fortunately, Qiao Linqi knew that everyone was anxious, so he didn't try to be mysterious and answered quickly.
"They must have obtained some secret technique, but it can only increase the combat effectiveness of monsters and is probably useless against humans. If it were truly useful against humans, they wouldn't have failed to use it on the battlefield."
Even if it can only increase the magic power of Warcraft, it is shocking enough.
"But where did they get this secret method from? We also spent a lot of manpower and material resources, and spent hundreds of years to research it???"
Qu Yang didn't understand where Long Ying got the secret technique from.
Qiao Linqi was silent for a long time, and suddenly thought of something. He said with a little shock and some disbelief.
"Qu Yang, do you remember that when we were still at the border of Shuiling, Nangong Jing once left Shuiling?"
Qu Yang didn't understand why Qiao Linqi brought up this matter for no reason, but he still responded to what he said.
"I remember that he seemed to have gone to Wuwang City. Since he wasn't going back to Longying for help, we didn't send anyone to follow him. What's wrong? Is there a problem?"
"Have you forgotten why this Forgetful City is famous..."
Qiao Linqi's face was a little gloomy. He was still careless. He should have gotten rid of the man when Nangong Jing left, or he should have continued to keep an eye on him.
It wouldn't have ended up in such an embarrassing situation now.
"Wuwang Tower!!! Are you saying that Nangong Jing got the secret method to double the magic power of Warcraft from Wuwang Tower?"
"Perhaps there is a way to break our formation. If it weren't for Xuanyuan Xingyao, how could he have suddenly thought of a way to break through?"
The more Qiao Linqi thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case, and he felt mixed emotions.
"But aren't there only martial arts and treasures in this Forgotten Tower? How can there be a way to double the magic power of Warcraft? If there is, then why have we spent so much manpower and resources over the years? Can't we just go to the Forgotten Tower and break into it? "
A general exclaimed in disbelief.
Mao Wuwei frowned and fell into deep thought. If Qiao Linqi's guess was true, then what Fate had done over the years was really like a joke, a huge joke.
The atmosphere in the room had reached its lowest point. No one spoke, and everyone's faces were gloomy. If someone entered the room at this time, they would be scared to death.
"Okay, there's no point in talking about this now. Let's first think about what to do next."
In the end, it was Mao Wuwei who broke the dead silence.
"General Mao, what do you think?"
Although Qiao Linqi is the head coach, Mao Wuwei has the highest cultivation level among those present, so Qiao Linqi respects Mao Wuwei very much and generally does not refute the opinions raised by Mao Wuwei.
"I will lead the team to test it first to see how far this monster's magic power can grow, and also to see how much this secret method can increase the monster's cultivation."
Mao Wuwei said in a deep voice.
"That's fine."
Qiao Linqi, Qu Yang and several other generals whispered to each other for a few minutes, then nodded in agreement with Mao Wuwei's proposal.
Mao Wuwei was just testing the waters, not giving Long Ying any time to rest. The next day, he appeared outside Quyan City with his nearly 10,000 troops.
Although the number of soldiers and horses brought by Mao Wuwei was not large, when Nangong Tao and his companions received the news, their expressions were even more solemn than when Qiao Linqi came to attack the city yesterday.
There was no other way. In Mao Wuwei's team, the lowest-level magician had the level of a junior magician and a warrior, so they had no choice but to be cautious.
"Ordinary soldiers would simply be beaten to a pulp if they faced them. We will lead all the warriors out to meet the enemy, while the magicians and summoners will continue to fight from the city walls."
After pondering for a while, Nangong Tao said to Xuanyuan Xingyao, Mao Yunkai and the other two.
"OK."
Although there are not many soldiers with cultivation among the three armies, there are nearly a hundred of them including the students of the Imperial Capital Academy.
There is definitely a huge difference in numbers compared to Mao Wuwei's side, but the lowest level of cultivation here is War Sect and Intermediate Magician, and there are even quite a few War Kings and high-level magicians.
Finally, with the help of the monsters, there is still a chance of winning.
In fact, after Ouyang Yi and Mao Yunkai discovered that there was such a strange army on the Fate side, they sent a request for help to the country.
I hope Eurasia College and Shuiling College can also send some students to help, but unfortunately they are still on the way.
When the city gate opened, Mao Wuwei's deputy general laughed out loud when he saw Nangong Tao coming out with such a small number of troops.
"Marshal Nangong, are you ready to give up resistance? Or do you think that with just this few men, you can withstand our army?"
Nangong Tao didn't take the other party's sarcasm to heart at all, and just stared at Mao Wuwei with an expressionless face.
Mao Wuwei also looked back at Nangong Tao. The momentum of the two gradually increased, and they slowly collided with each other, and finally turned into a wire collision.
Mao Wuwei and Nangong Tao have similar cultivation levels, so neither of them can do anything to the other.
Finally, the two of them gave the order to attack almost at the same time. The originally quiet battlefield was officially engaged in battle with the orders of the two.
