Chapter 101: Hitting the Pain Points
"Is it finally here?"
Zhou Xu was not panicked at all when he heard the call.
He just looked up at the sky and then sneered.
"The abacus beads are about to hit me in the face."
He had obviously guessed what the other party was planning.
After receiving the news, Wang Luchong's tribe set out before dawn, but the other side had at least rested for most of the night.
On the other hand, they marched all night without closing their eyes.
After daybreak, Wang Luchong reached a verbal agreement with him to join forces, and then withdrew his troops.
But it is obviously impossible for them to relax immediately, and they still need to remain vigilant.
There is no need to say more about what happens next.
Basically, from dusk yesterday till now, the total rest time they have had is probably only three to five hours.
Please note that these rest times are very fragmented. They may have to wake up after resting for a while, so the quality of rest is not good.
It was obvious that Wang Luchong had grasped this point.
He didn't call right away in the afternoon, but it wasn't out of kindness, he was just giving them time to rest.
Zhou Xu made a blind guess that the other party did this for two reasons, and these two purposes were based on the premise that they had rested or not rested respectively.
If they had rested, then they would be exhausted after a whole night and would definitely be sleeping soundly at this moment. If he called them, they would be caught off guard.
On the contrary, if they did not rest and worked until the evening, they would have accumulated more fatigue both physically and mentally, and their condition would definitely be bad, so they would have a greater advantage.
It has to be said that even though they knew that the opponent was plotting against them, it was difficult for them to gain an advantage in this wave, because this was an unavoidable reality.
At the command, the big shield soldiers moved out again and formed a shield wall outside the camp.
"Dude, we all came from China. Is it necessary to do this?"
In response to this, Wang Luchong, who was already leading a large group of people from his tribe and setting up a battle array outside the camp, showed a grim smile on his face.
"Zhou Xu, I'll tell you straight, have all your men lay down their weapons and surrender, and hand over all your resources and the mantra that created the skeleton! Serve me honestly from now on. As we are all Chinese, I, Wang Lu Chong, will never treat you unfairly!"
Hearing this, a hint of understanding suddenly flashed across Zhou Xu's face.
[As expected, he is attracted by my truth and resources. The temptation of my truth is probably greater than my resources.]
For them who also come from Blue Star, truth is undoubtedly an extraordinary power and something that countless ordinary people dream of.
Relying on the combination of mantras, Zhou Xu, who commands a special type of army called the Skeleton Soldiers, has already demonstrated his extraordinary power. Wang Luchong obviously does not want such a neighbor.
At this moment, with the other party saying this, it was clear that there was nothing more to talk about between the two sides.
In response to this, Zhou Xu simply stopped talking, set up a shield formation, and waited for the other party to launch an attack.
Faced with this situation, Wang Luchong frowned.
"What? Are you planning to be a coward and hide behind that shield wall forever?!"
In the current situation, although he was the attacker, looking at the shield wall, Wang Luchong obviously did not want to take the initiative to launch an offensive, so he made provocative remarks, trying to provoke Zhou Xu to abandon the shield wall and take the initiative to attack.
Faced with this clumsy provocation, Zhou Xu simply sneered.
"Wang Luchong, don't just stand there and complain when you can't break my shield wall."
"you!!"
Zhou Xu's words were bland, but they hit Wang Luchong's sore spot directly, and at the same time they were also indirectly shaking his morale.
Hearing this, the members of the opposing tribe subconsciously turned their gaze to him, as if they wanted to get an answer from their leader's face.
Feeling these gazes, Wang Luchong's face turned ugly.
He had to admit that when the slingshots were blocked by the shield wall, he was really helpless against the shield wall.
If there is really no other way, he can only let the melee troops fight hard, but this will undoubtedly put him into a deeper passive position.
Just as Wang Luchong was struggling with this, Zhou Xu's voice rang out again.
"Take your time to think about it. I'm not in a hurry. It's getting dark soon. After dark, it will be good for me."
As he said this, Zhou Xu raised his eyebrows at Li Ce who was standing there stunned.
Their leader's tactics are definitely aimed at changing the other side's mentality.
Just what he loved doing most in battle.
Now it seems that their leader’s ability to manipulate people’s mentality is probably even better than his!
At this moment, Wang Luchong's face was so gloomy that water seemed to be dripping out of it.
[Fuck! This bitch!!!]
While cursing Zhou Xu in his heart, the pressure on Wang Luchong also doubled.
As mentioned before, units like skeletons will make people instinctively think of words like "darkness", "evil", and "night".
Under the inertia of modern people's thinking, Zhou Xu misled Wang Luchong appropriately in his words, making him subconsciously think that the skeleton soldiers would have some kind of buff after nightfall.
Now, isn't he anxious?
Wang Luchong had no choice but to bite the bullet and give the order to attack.
After receiving the order, the warriors of the opposite tribe rushed towards them waving weapons such as stone axes and bone spears.
Zhou Xu will not be polite to them about this.
"Slings ready!"
"put!!!"
At the command, a swarm of stone bullets flew out from behind the shield wall.
In terms of scale, they cannot compare with the opposite side, but the opposite side does not have the door panel shield to help them block the stone bullets.
Wang Luchong, who lived in the mountains and forests, had never had any enemy that required him to use a large shield to defend himself before he met Zhou Xu.
At the same time, the clumsy large shield itself is not suitable for fighting in complex and difficult mountain forests.
But now he has paid the price.
Even if the formation was evacuated in advance, it would be difficult to completely hide in the limited space on the mountain.
Amid the continuous screams, people were constantly hit by the flying stones, with their heads broken and bleeding, and fell to the ground.
However, facing this situation, Wang Luchong had no choice but to fight back with all his might, and pray in his heart that after a close combat, he would be able to reverse the situation with his advantage in military strength.
The distance between the two sides was not far. Under the premise of the large force charging forward at the risk of their lives, they withstood two rounds of stone bullet attacks and soon rushed to the shield formation.
The next second, the shield wall opened slightly, and bone spears pierced out from behind the big shield and attacked the enemies rushing up.
At the same time, Zhou Xu activated the power of truth...
[Controlled by Skeleton Soldiers! ]
Instantly, skeleton soldiers holding weapons appeared from behind the shield wall! (End of this chapter)
