Chapter 494: Take Action
After that, some time passed. Staying on this lizardman continent, one’s sense of seasonal changes would become dull.
According to the time, it is already late autumn, but the weather here is still very hot, and the temperature is estimated to be above 30 degrees.
In this temperature where the slightest movement in daily life will make you sweat, how do you let them feel the coming of autumn and winter?
Counting the days in his mind, Zhou Xu was thinking about whether to stay or go.
With the war on the front line coming to a temporary end, Li Ce is more than capable of handling the daily affairs here, and there is actually not much point in him continuing to stay on the front line.
In comparison, he is needed more in the rear.
But the annoying thing is that he is an important part of the front-line combat power. Once he leaves, the impact on the front-line combat power will be very obvious.
Previously, they analyzed that the Lizardmen had gone on the defensive and would not attack easily in the short term. However, that was just their own analysis and speculation. They were always prepared for the worst.
As his thoughts raced, Zhou Xu felt his own condition and came up with an idea in his mind.
"Pengfei, how many days are left until the end of the month?"
Facing the question, Wang Pengfei quickly replied after counting on his fingers...
"Reporting to the king, six days."
"Take my order and go to the frontline camp to find Li Ce. Tell him to prepare and get the soldiers in good shape. We will launch a test at the end of the month to get a feel for the situation on the other side."
"yes!"
After the war ended, Zhou Xu immediately asked Li Ce to set up another front-line camp.
The main purpose of setting up this front-line camp is undoubtedly to monitor the Lizardmen hiding in the rainforest.
By the way, test the reaction of the Lizardmen to see if they will attack their front-line camp.
For now, the other side has not taken any action and has been hiding in the rainforest.
This is actually the right thing to do.
In this case, they would be seeking death if they came out.
With Zhou Xu's order, Wang Pengfei did not dare to delay and quickly rode on horseback to find Li Ce to pass on the message.
Zhou Xu himself returned to the garrison camp. As soon as he arrived outside the camp, his attention was attracted by the four huge skeletons piled outside.
After a while, the bodies of the four armored dragons were finally dealt with.
Unsurprisingly, there is no "heart blood" in the hearts of armored dragons; they are not extraordinary creatures.
Because the carapace, skin and muscle tissue have all been removed, the body size has obviously shrunk a lot compared to when it was alive.
But even so, the skeletons of the four armored dinosaurs placed there can still bring a great shock to people.
In order to support its heavy body, the bones of the Ankylosaurus are incredibly strong.
Especially the four legs, although short, they are extremely strong.
"That's enough, everyone back off."
When he arrived in front of the four skeletons, Zhou Xu signaled the staff around him to step back, and then he quickly activated the mantra.
[Controlled by Skeleton Beast Soldiers! ]
Instantly, the power of the mantra spread out. Under the influence of the power of the mantra, the small pieces of meat residue and fascia remaining on the skeleton quickly dissipated. The ordinary armored dragon skeleton was transformed into a "skeleton beast soldier" on the spot!
Will-o'-the-wisp fires were ignited from the empty eye sockets of the armored dragon's skulls. Accompanied by a burst of intensive bone crisping sounds, the four armored dragon skeletons stood up one after another.
The shock that moment brought to the onlookers was beyond words.
After completing the transformation, Zhou Xu immediately released his control over three of them. After all, the energy required to control a skeleton beast soldier of this size was far greater than that of an ordinary skeleton beast soldier.
At the end of the month six days later, he would begin exploring the rainforest area where the Lizardmen lived. There was no need to waste too much mantra power at this time.
However, there are also necessary things, such as simply confirming the performance of this Shield Ankylosaur Skeleton.
Controlling the last remaining armored dragon skeleton, Zhou Xu ordered it to move.
It couldn't run fast when it was alive, and after death it lost its muscle tissue and soft tissue in its joints, so its movements became even stiffer and slower.
"well."
This situation made Zhou Xu sigh directly, and then he lifted the mantra.
Compared to living creatures, skeleton soldiers are slower. Just think about it, if the four armored dragon skeletons lack mobility efficiency, if they are put into battle, Zhou Xu will probably have to consume a lot of mantra power on movement, and the consumption of such a giant unit is quite large...
For now, this shortcoming is fatal. At least in the next action, Zhou Xu has no intention of using these four armored dragon skeletons. They are far less cost-effective than the big bone and the second bone.
Zhou Xu had expected this result, but the four armored dragon bodies were there, so he had to give it a try anyway. He couldn't just jump to conclusions based on his imagination.
Of course, these four armored dragon skeletons are not completely useless.
In terms of offense, it is indeed not cost-effective, but it can be used for defense.
As long as the enemy actively rushes forward, the slower speed of the Shielded Dragon Skeleton will not have that much impact.
Or you can wait until the power of mantra becomes stronger and you can squander it at will, then you can take it out and use it again, so you can keep it for now.
At the same time, Li Ce, who received the order, did not show much surprise.
Although the pressure was put on the ratmen, they had been resting for a while, and they needed to take some actions from time to time to bring some pressure to the lizardmen.
Don't forget that the ratmen suffered a great defeat before and probably suffered heavy damage. If they are defeated by the lizardmen again, it is highly likely that they will not be able to take action again in a short period of time.
In this way, wouldn't the pressure be back on them? Neither Zhou Xu nor Li Ce wanted to see this situation.
Six days passed in the blink of an eye. Without any intention of hiding anything, Zhou Xu directly launched the mantra outside the front-line camp.
[Controlled by Skeleton Soldiers! ]
As the power of the truth spread, Zhou Xu directly raised a skeleton army consisting of 300 skeleton soldiers! This was the result of his choice after considering the continuous combat capability, otherwise he could have raised more.
Under this premise, these three hundred skeleton soldiers are all made up of the skeletons of lizardmen, two hundred of which are green lizards and one hundred are blue lizards.
Compared with blue lizards, green lizard skeletons are much more flexible and should be able to bring more advantages into play in the complex rainforest environment, so Zhou Xu greatly increased their proportion.
The order was given, and the Lizardman Skeleton Soldiers advanced in the front, while their human mountain soldiers followed behind. The entire scale was huge.
It's called a test, but if you can just beat the opponent directly, then there's no point in testing! (End of this chapter)
