Chapter 423 The First Phase (III)
At this moment, except for a few clusters of mutants that were deliberately avoided or left behind, almost all the monsters in the entire southern territory were led to the tributaries of the Jinhui River. On the North Shore, there is no doubt that Cordoba and Xia Lian have created a miracle. They rely on their strong strength and extremely harsh positioning to allow themselves to travel across the hatred range of most monsters. Of course, In this process, factors such as Luna's specially prepared [Powerful Concentrated Glowing Powder], observers hidden in various high-risk areas, and Mo Tan's action route that he had repeatedly checked many times also played a crucial role, but The most critical point is whether the two decoys can successfully complete the guidance task. To be precise, whether they can complete the guidance task within the specified time.
This is a task that is far more difficult than confronting an army of mutants head-on. Because Xia Lian and Cordoba were unable to leave the precarious vicinity of the Twin Cities during this period, there was no chance to rehearse or Familiar with the terrain, there is only a map with almost no errors to rely on. This is the one sent by the large army after thoroughly collecting the main locations of each mutant cluster, even though the routes and references above are extremely clear. It’s clear, but this kind of point has not been stepped on in advance. The first attack carries the key task that is the cornerstone of the entire plan. The pressure of the slightest mistake and the whole game may be lost is self-evident. Cui Xiaoyu I haven't been able to eat since noon today (real time), and I spent most of the day lying in front of the computer memorizing the map.
To be honest, this means that both of them have a pretty good sense of direction. If Mo Tan himself were to perform the job of luring the enemy, well, in that case, Misha County might actually be safe. However, nearby places like the Principality of Skarlan, the Free City, the Fire Claw Territory, and the southern part of the Sanctuary are very likely to suffer random disasters~
Back to business...
Not to mention the problem of being familiar with the terrain, Xia Lian and Cordoba also have to try their best not to leave behind any mutant cluster with a size of more than three digits. This is also an extremely difficult task, especially when every second counts. Without being able to stop, even with the 'aura of ridicule' brought by the glow powder, it would not be much easier. If the speed is too fast, it is easy for the farthest mutant to escape from the traction. If the speed is too slow, it will not only be easy to catch up, but also It will delay the completion of the first phase and make those who stick to the bridge bear huge risks. Therefore, the two not only have to control the mutants' hatred of themselves, but sometimes they also need to make appropriate adjustments before they can put this aside. An unprecedented large-scale kite flying.
Thanks to the rules of mutant action that everyone has summarized before, the roadmap that Mo Tan repeatedly overturned and reworked also included many overlapping interspersed moves specifically designed to consolidate hatred. Otherwise, Cordoba and No matter how talented Xia Lian was, it was impossible for her to make large and frequent changes while controlling her speed, ensuring her route, and maintaining her glow.
All in all, as far as the results are concerned, they did a good job in the above two points. Not only did they not let a large number of mutants escape control, they also rushed back to Changqiao within the stipulated thirty minutes.
But there were not no accidents in the process. Although Cordoba relied on the unique advantages of rune creation to create a position that firmly fixed the glowing powder, Xia Lian's magic happened. Problem, if she hadn't taken extreme measures to deal with it, not only would there have been a terrible situation where nearly a thousand mutants were not successfully induced to the designated location, but there would probably be very few living people left on the long bridge in front of Abby City. ...
But Xia Lian finally rushed back within the stipulated time. Not only did she regain a large number of mutants who had escaped from control due to the previous mistake, she even competed with them while perfectly achieving the planned plan. Cordoba rushed back to Long Bridge half a minute earlier!
"Retreat to the city."
Her Royal Highness the Saint descended from the sky and landed steadily in front of the forty survivors. Xia Lian shook her left hand, and a bright cross of holy light appeared like a gate. behind her With the whip, he directly cut off the fearless offensive of those monsters, turning the hundreds of mutants at the front into a ball of golden torches filled with flames. In an instant, they were completely destroyed, leaving not even a trace behind. filthy.
"May the goddess bless Your Highness the Saint."
The survivors did not hesitate. They had completed their mission and knew very well that even if they continued to stay here, they would only give to the Saint. His Highness was just holding him back, and although life could be fought for, not many people would choose to waste and squander it, so everyone bowed to Xia Lian in an untidy manner, and then left as quickly as possible.
As for why it is 'as much as possible', it is naturally because these people have already reached their limit. It was only after seeing Xia Lian coming back that they remembered that they should have been unable to hold on, and then they really persisted. Can't stand it anymore...
A big orc man who just a few seconds ago had yelled "Bless Your Highness the Saint" with great enthusiasm, turned around and just took two steps before falling directly to the ground without making any sound.
There is no doubt that he is dead, so completely that even Xia Lian cannot be saved now.
Because judging from the injuries on this guy's body, he should have died long ago...
Being able to stand at the front and swing a knife just a second before Xia Lian rushed back, it was It's hard to understand.
Perhaps even the best clergy and pharmacists cannot explain why an ordinary mercenary whose strength has just reached the threshold of the intermediate level can continue to work after losing one-third of his heart. The high-intensity battle lasted for nearly three minutes...
Xia Lian looked at the orc mercenary who fell on the ground and the remains of more people who had sacrificed their lives on the bridge before him. She recited something silently, then turned around and faced those who had finally seen the light of day. The mutant whose cross was worn to pieces shook his neck, cracked his long white knuckles twice, and whispered: "May the goddess bless you too."
She jumped lightly As he stood up, two faint shadows of light wings appeared behind him, holding them firmly in mid-air. The ankle-length golden hair was swaying slightly, although it was not as impressive as Ji Xiaoge's. People feel a dazzling beauty, but it exudes a sacred and transcendent aura, as if the gods are personally present...
It is a kind of holiness that even if the holy light is not shined under the long skirt, no one else dares to look up to peek. temperament.
Xia Lian, who had only temporarily recovered a little bit of strength, was enough to silence the countless mutants who were unafraid of death at her feet. It was a kind of trembling from the soul, which even overwhelmed the only remaining parts of these monsters. desires and instincts.
Saint Xia Lian, who has hundreds of years of work experience, is firmly in the top three among the gods' favored ones in the entire City of Light. This is also the beginning of the Sanctuary. I didn't even think of supporting any combatants. Later I learned why Xia Lian didn't dare to send anyone over after she was 'severely injured'.
Just like you are playing computer at home and suddenly receive a call, saying that one of your own Gundams was severely damaged by unknown enemy forces at location XX. I hope you can quickly bring a kitchen knife to support and find out the situation. Will you go?
Don’t talk about leaders and adults, even if this is said by my biological father, I have to weigh it carefully...
Although most people in the joint force have the strength of His Highness Xia Lian The basic judgment is that he is a big thief and is so powerful that he can defeat the seemingly bluffing Cordoba, but this kind of understanding is obviously somewhat wrong.
You must know that although Xia Lian is indeed a bit strong, she is not taking the paladin route, but the spell casting route that specializes in divine magic. In other words, Xia Lian can take Cole The power that Dowa beats down is the power of a magician professional (literally), so how powerful will the magic of a magician with such power...well, or in other words, divine magic be?
“Although it is only less than 30% of the level in its heyday...”
Xia Lian sighed and threw her heavy cross casually, hitting it directly among a large number of mutants. She slowly opened her hands in mid-air: "But it can still do something."
The next second, with the star-gold cross as the center, an invisible ripple spread slowly but firmly, caressing the bodies of hundreds of surrounding mutants like a breeze. Although it did not cause any harm, But it left a small mark on these desecrated lives.
Then...
"God said, the living go forward, and the dead rest in peace."
Dense golden thunder like a rain curtain suddenly fell, with Xia Lian's cross as the symbol The center instantly turned the previously marked mutants into ashes,
[The holy words of the gods carry out punishment on behalf of the gods]
......
Hodir Mountain Road, commanding the big account
"Cordoba and Xia Lian returned to Long Bridge, Except for a total of more than 400 mutants left in Z5 and Z11, the other targets have been concentrated on the north bank of the Jinhui River tributary and are attacking the long bridge."
Yu Ying received the twins immediately! The report from the other side of the city said in a deep voice behind Mo Tan: "The first stage of the Requiem has been completed, and the omissions are within control."
Mo Tan casually picked up two Go-like black chess pieces and placed them in areas Z5 and Z11 on the map. He took a deep breath and sat back on the chair in front of the long table with a bitter look on his face: "It's too exciting. "Exciting?"
Yu Ying raised her eyebrows and blinked: "I thought everything was in your plan."
As the first phase of the plan came to an end, the girl who acted as a temporary information processor finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although it was just an ordinary message delivery, she was delivering dozens of pieces of information of different natures and categories at the same time, and In this process, they also need to be sorted and sorted before dictating them, plus providing feedback for Motan. This level of workload is definitely the biggest test Yuying has ever experienced.
With gold coins, allowances and conscience in mind, she finally managed to survive.
"Send a message to Cordoba and ask the observers in Ebi City to tell Xia Lian that from now on, they must stay on the long bridge for at least seven to nine hours."
Mo Tan Lying back in the chair with his eyes closed, he rubbed his forehead and said lightly: "Before the third stage of the requiem ends, they must not fall down or retreat."
" Got it~"
Yu Ying stretched out, and after two seconds, she suddenly spread her hands and said, "Mr. Cordoba wrote back and said, 'Seven to nine hours, you might as well let me die?' ! '."
"Dead?"
Mo Tan gave a bitter smile, shook his head and said: "Stop dreaming, he can't even afford to die now."
Then Yuying conveyed the original words, and then Cordoba became silent.
Mo Tan closed his eyes and rested for about half a minute, then he opened his eyes and looked again at the southern map on the table, which was infinitely close to the ghost-drawing talisman. At this moment, most of the areas were already covered with only Empty footnotes are left, with only two black skulls representing mutants stuck tightly to the north of the tributary marked 'Twin Long Bridges'. Opposite them are two knight-white skulls that exude a rich red light. chess.
In the first stage of the Requiem, the most mobile and powerful rune creations and Her Majesty the Saint will join forces to attack most of the areas from the surroundings of Fair City to the tributaries of the Jinhui River. mutants all gathered together and led them to the back In front of the long bridge full of life in Shawa and Ebi City, use the strong individual combat power and terrain to block the monsters. After forming a cluster, they will subconsciously act collectively and cannot resist the temptation of the living. The undead creatures are concentrated together as much as possible.
It can be said to be a one-man show between Xia Lian and Cordoba.
The upcoming second phase of the Requiem Project is a one-man show for Mo Tan and Yu Chen.
The main body is actually not much different from the first stage, it still attracts monsters!
Just changed the bait.
“When did she leave?”
Mo Tan leaned on the armrest with his cheek in his hand, seizing the rare few minutes of rest and trying to clear his mind while preparing for the next step. Prepared for action, while recovering as much physical energy as possible, even the tone when talking to Yuying was a little loose: "I didn't even pay attention..."
Yuying blinked: "Huh? Oh, ah... Wang Yu, she just left a while ago. You were too focused just now, so it's normal that you didn't pay attention. Why, is there anything else you need to explain to her?" < br>
“I have explained everything that needs to be explained countless times.”
Mo Tan shrugged his shoulders, changed into a more comfortable posture, and took out a bottle of Shenbao...cough , took two sips of potion to replenish physical energy, shook his head and said: "I just think there is no need for her to go there so early. It will take a while to stabilize the hatred over there."
Yu Ying blew a loud whistle. , said with a bad smile: "To put it bluntly, are you reluctant to let her go? Or are you worried because she is about to go on an adventure, and you feel uneasy without even seeing her?"
"That's what I said."< br>
Mo Tan laughed dryly, pointed at the tip of his nose and asked, "Do you think I look like that kind of vulgar person?"
Yu Ying did not hesitate: "Yes, you are just like an ordinary person."
“Yes, yes, just say so, and I will I just can’t bear it, I’m just worried, I just don’t feel at ease, what?”
“Oh, not really, but I want to remind you... emmmm~”
“emmmm ?”
"Wangyu hasn't left yet, I've been standing behind you~"
"What?!"
Mo Tan was shocked and turned around suddenly, but he didn't notice half of it. silhouette.
"Just teasing you."
"Huh, don't play like that in the future, it's not good for your heart..."
