Chapter 298: If You Use It, I Will Use It Too (Part 1)
Primatis said solemnly, "To be frank, the morale of our troops is not high. Except for the elite troops we brought from Azeroth, the other troops are more or less worried. The threat from the sky makes these local soldiers very worried. This is the case when the previously surrendered Imperial Army is reorganized separately."
Richard nodded, "It's human nature. I find it strange that the troops brought from Azeroth are not worried."
"Because they believe that their gods will lead them to the ultimate victory."
Richard showed his white teeth, "I like to hear that."
Thor said, "Ligredo and I each brought a troop. The warriors of these two troop are believers in us. Their morale is not affected by the sky at all. If they are dispersed to various troop units, it should be able to play a role."
"Well." Richard looked at Primathis, "Is it too urgent now?"
Primathis nodded and said, "It's definitely not too late. If the morale can be improved, it won't delay for much time."
"Well, since Rigadi's and Thor's troops have been assigned to other troops, Thor and Rigadi will participate in the battle as individuals. The goddess's group amplification ability is also very important to us. It must play its due role."
The goddesses all nodded, and Richard asked Primathis: "What are our chances of winning our next goal?"
"Unknown. Uttogard has never fallen since its establishment, so we don't have any reference."
"What do you think?"
Primathis said confidently: "Ten!"
Richard laughed: "Yes, only victory awaits us!"
But although he said this, he was still mentally alert. After all, Yggdril's heart was in Srud's hands, which was always disadvantageous.
"Richard?"
"Hmm?" Richard looked up at Diluka who made the sound.
"We can't think about our strategy for too long. While we're thinking, Slud should also be looking for a way to restart Uttorgard..."
Odin interrupted Diluka and said, "Don't worry about this for now. Uttorgard has not shown any signs of recovery. If it shows any signs, I will inform you immediately."
Richard glanced at Odin. There was no abnormal behavior of Odin in the regular reports from Valeera, so Odin's words could still be trusted.
"But we have to hurry up. Something may happen at any time that may change the situation. We have to defeat Thrud as soon as possible."
Richard glanced at Primathis. "That's true, but it's difficult to break through their defense. Onyxia's recent reconnaissance shows that the guards in Uttorgard are very strict, far more than the theater. It's not easy to successfully land there. The spies we sent to the capital haven't sent out any valuable information so far. The only thing we can use for preliminary selection is the information provided by the guys who betrayed Thrud. A location, that location is indeed the weakest point in the whole of Uttogard, but it is not a suitable landing point. The area is full of bone forests, and the wooden structure at the bottom of the airship is prone to problems. Wait one more day. If we can't find a new and correct location, then we will attack here!"
Uttogard was not built on a plain. The imperial capital was built on the mountain, and the palace was on the top of the mountain. It's not that they didn't think about air raiding the palace, but the defense there made Richard have no chance at all. If they attacked directly, they would only be surrounded by the imperial capital's air and land forces who responded quickly, and they would destroy themselves. Therefore, they could only choose to log in from the outside, then break through the flat bottom at the foot of the mountain, and attack up along the mountain road. However, the biggest difficulty in attacking the imperial capital is that there is no vegetation in the imperial capital, and the march is completely exposed to the enemy's eyes. The only cover is the bones scattered everywhere. The bone forest is the characteristic attraction here. Each bone forest is a mass burial place for beasts. One bone after another is crossed together to form a woodland. Richard even suspected that Uthogard was built on the corpse of a giant beast. The protruding bone spurs on the mountain are just like the Blade Mountain, the hometown of Rexxar, which is so inconsistent.
"That's the only way. Now we can see how powerful Slud is. No matter what kind of violent activities they carry out, their people follow him." Odin said, leaning back in his chair.
Diluka said, "But most of them were afraid."
Primadis shook his head, "It's a skill to be able to make so many people afraid at the same time. But then again, Slud's ability is so strong, and we were amazing to be able to repel him. Although we didn't create a scene like a capital city suddenly appearing in the sky."
"No, no, no!" Richard waved his hands quickly, "We are not powerful people, we are idiots. Our brothers sent to Uttogard did not send back any valuable news, but they did send back a piece of intelligence about what the residents of the capital think of us. Most of the residents there think we are crazy. It is simply idiotic to go against the devil who can implement such a devastating plan."
Kalm laughed, "But we are really powerful. If it weren't for this incident, we would have resolved the battle on this continent long ago. If Uttogard hadn't suddenly appeared in the sky and scared me, we would have succeeded long ago."
"It's human nature, this is a normal reaction." Diluka added on the side.
"Hmm?" Richard's mind lit up when he heard Diluka's words. The words just now gave him an idea. Richard immediately looked at Calm and said, "Calm, please repeat what you just said."
Calm was stunned by Richard's question and said quickly, "That... that we are really amazing!"
"The last sentence!" Richard said with some displeasure.
"Ah!" Calm hurriedly tried to recall it. It took him a long time to remember, "You... you mean the one that scared me? Uthogard suddenly appeared in the sky. Anyone would be scared if it was him!"
"From the sky?"
Richard closed his eyes and thought carefully. It's not about the applicability of this plan, but the feasibility of this plan.
The other girls looked at Richard anxiously when they saw his sudden silence, fearing that something might have gone wrong. But Richard ignored them and kept thinking.
"Yes! That's it!" Richard suddenly slapped the table and startled everyone.
