Chapter 2319 The embankment breaks
The death of Kasena was not unexpected. In fact, whether it was the audience who was paying attention to the game, or Lucie and Mika on the wall, they were very disappointed with this result. No one showed too much surprise. Only Christina outside the city was stunned for a moment after hearing the system message. In the confusion, she was attacked several times by the surrounding dead soldiers under the Nightless King.
Unfortunately, considering that Christina was still being beaten even if she was not stunned, these few seconds of distraction hardly caused any additional damage to her.
So, why were neither the commentators, the audience, nor the members of the [Sailor Moon] team surprised by Kasena’s death?
The reason is very simple, that is, before she turned into white light and disappeared, she had been fighting with the strongest person in the [Haunted Church], the 'Great Onmyoji Gu Xiaole' for a full quarter of an hour.
Of course, the so-called 'fighting' is actually just a relatively nice way of saying it. In fact, Gu Xiaole, who led the three elite teams of the Iron Cavalry, the Tiger Tooth Army and the Black Crow Guard, basically crushed Kasena throughout the whole process. After all, after all, Not only were they incomparable in terms of individual strength, but even the elite men under her command who were carefully selected by Lucie to carry out the battle of recapture were in a state of control throughout the entire process and could not be defeated no matter how hard they fought.
In the final analysis, although the defenders with no numerical advantage are sitting in a powerful city, it is absolutely impossible for even a powerful city to not leave elites to put out the fire under the opponent's frenzied offensive, even if Christina is there to share the burden outside the city. The firepower of the Nightless King's army, even if Lucie and Mika are stronger than ordinary soldiers, is still far from enough. Therefore, although Kasena was arranged to take away some of the best soldiers, most of the elites were still left behind. In the city.
Mo Tan, on the other hand, bravely handed over all three of his elite troops to Gu Xiaole, and also put the reserve troops stationed in the rear as insurance into the frontal battlefield, so that except for the king's tent, In addition to some basic temporary defenses, there were only a small number of guards of moderate strength to protect him and Yu Chen. If the latter was added to them, they would not be able to The restrictions on taking action in this game...
Let's put it this way, if Lucie gritted her teeth and stamped her feet, she directly activated a high-level arcane spell [Strong Invisibility] to temporarily block the dual existence of her own aura and form. , sneaking in here quietly, not to mention anything else, it is not difficult at all to kill Hei Fan, who was revised to be the absolute core of the 'Nightless King' in the eyes of the NPC.
Without the backbone, most of the dead soldiers who are not ironclad will also waver, which will trigger a chain reaction and make the goal of "capture the Black Onyx City in a short time" out of reach. The advantage was given to the [Sailor Moon] team, which had both time and head advantages.
However... if the situation really develops as above, then [Haunted Church] has a very high probability of winning the game in the shortest time, because before Mo Tan made up his mind to 'test himself', he had already made a simple plan to be beaten. Preparation for burglary.
In view of the fact that this 'preparation' is completely within the scope of her ability and even her expertise, if Lucie really decides to carry out the 'decapitation plan' after assessing the situation, then the defense system of [Black Onyx City] will definitely It was dragged until it collapsed and collapsed, and finally broke within two hours.
Just as Lucie judged through [Guard Like a Mountain] that the opponent only had a little over two hours to break through Black Onyx City, Mo Tan deduced a time node through the mission text of [Invasion Like Fire], then That is, if you can break the city within two hours, then even if you are eliminated, [Haunted Church] will most likely win the final victory.
Interestingly, after receiving the news that the 'quarry' and 'Samler River' were occupied by the enemy at the same time, Lucie actually vaguely realized that at this moment, the south of the city was It is difficult to ascertain the reality of the Night King's rear. It is very likely that the rear of the Nightless King will be extremely empty. If he seizes the time and uses thunderous means, he may be able to kill Hei Fan without even a single measure.
Then there was nothing more. In fact, when Lucie's thinking reached the words 'unprepared', she had simply stopped her thoughts and continued to discuss the current situation. She has a formulaic response and dispatch with her own characteristics, so it is not an exaggeration to say that her discipline indirectly pulled the [Sailor Moon] team back from a dead end.
So, under what circumstances will Kasena and her elite forces be completely annihilated even though they have already prepared a retreat?
You know, Lucie had taken many precautionary measures when she was sent out to the city. Even if she encounters the worst situation, with Cassena's strength, she should be able to persevere smoothly. It is almost impossible to retreat into the city and the entire army led by him will be annihilated outside.
The matter starts from more than ten minutes ago. In view of the fact that the distance between the west quarry and Black Onyx City is not far, and in addition, this team is basically composed of high-level experts, even the weakest He also possesses the peak level of the intermediate level, and his traveling speed is simply unbelievable. Not long after leaving the city, They arrived at the outskirts of the quarry, and then...
I saw three troops that were armed to the teeth, and even the equipment was much more fashionable than ordinary enemy troops, and directly above this troop In mid-air, there was a pretty girl wearing a black and white hunting coat sitting cross-legged, with a smile as bright as a flower.
【Dehairing! 】
This was Kasena's first reaction at the moment the two sides encountered each other.
“Withdraw!”
This was Kasena’s first words after reacting.
According to Lucie's instructions, after realizing that there was no hope of recapturing the quarry, despite her temper being stronger than her fiery red hair, Kasena still chose without hesitation In order to lead people to retreat, what prompted her to go all out was not only the desire for victory, but also because of the 'Black Brahma'.
Or to be more precise, it's because of the 'promise between Hei Fan and Lucie'.
[Haunted Church] won, and the three sisters here agreed that he was currently qualified to stay with Yu Chen. Although this agreement sounded a bit nondescript, and although Kasena still felt that this kind of thing was too childish and inappropriate, Since everyone, including Yu Chen, has acquiesced, she must go all out to give the 'Black Fan' who at least a considerable part of her body is fighting for Chen Chen the utmost respect.
So at least in this game, you can’t be motivated!
Although people usually give people the illusion of being powerful, Kasena is famous for being reliable in big matters. It is precisely because of this that she has become a favorite of several girls. The eldest brother and backbone, instead of being treated as a tool by Lucie.
But the problem is that although Kasena withdrew happily, Gu Xiaole would not let her go as happily. On the contrary, the great Onmyoji who also became serious in this final not only simply and neatly let her go. He said "I'm all a shark", and I also He took the lead in a gust of wind and 'floated' towards the opponent. Even though he didn't start very quickly, he actually touched the tail of this elite force of [Black Onyx City] in just a few seconds, and he didn't hesitate. He waved the five-bone bat fan that was as black as ink in his hand.
That's right, it's not the Shikigami's specialized form [White Zetsu·Shura Hell], but the one that was converted into a spell-specialized form - [Black Hina·Zhishi Luejie].
And everyone who is paying attention to this final has truly seen the Onmyoji Gu Xiaole going all out for the first time!
[Yin Yang Technique - Ghost Exorcism·San Riyue]
But the girl’s eyes were slightly focused, and the moment her clogs stepped on the ground, she turned into a ghost figure, although it was not a large one in front of her. , but at any rate, there were more than a thousand troops passing by sideways and behind, and then they put the black fans together as if they were sheathing their swords, and made an exceptionally clear 'snap'.
Then, with this crisp sound, a dark virtual image of the sun and moon seeped out from the ground like sweat and blood, and the nearly a hundred soldiers included in it seemed to be invisible. As if a sharp blade had cut through the back of the neck, the body and head were separated in an instant. [Yin Yang Technique——Blood Prison·Tian Congyun]
Immediately afterwards, Gu Xiaole actually jumped up on the spot, holding up the delicate and small black fan that had been closed, and swung it down with his red lips lightly pursed.
Buzz! ! !
Immediately afterwards, amid a piercing whistling sound, dozens of soldiers who voluntarily stayed behind were swept by an invisible and sharp force from their eyebrows, and then turned into two pools of filthy water. Blood and water fell from mid-air, and the dead people who were standing were not in a straight line at all. The last thing they saw was a long sword, a long sword that was blood red and filled with sinister evil energy.
[Yin Yang Technique - Binding Curse·Thousand Needles Mountain]
Then, Gu Xiaole leaned over and touched the shocking blood at her feet with a black fan, and saw her slender wrist flicking Shaking, hundreds of bloody threads were shaken out, and these threads locked the target the moment they were 'thrown' away. They each found the soldiers closest to them and flew away. Except for a few quick-reacting ones, they waved their weapons to block them. After the blood line fell, the rest of the people were injected into their bodies by the blood line, their eyes were dull and they were unable to move.
[Yin Yang Technique - Fasting·No name or no name]
The girl knelt on one knee on the ground that was dripping with blood, placed the [Black Child·Divination] on the tip of her thumb, and clasped her hands together. Closing his eyes, the soldiers affected by the binding curse also knelt down on one knee at the same time due to some invisible force. Their bodies trembled and then their eyes rolled up and they lost their vitality.
[Yin Yang Technique - Seizing Souls and Sacrificing My Way]
The black fan that was originally placed on Gu Xiaole's fingertips slowly floated up. At the same time, there seemed to be a large number of phantoms coming from those The soldiers who had lost their vitality rose up and instantly merged into the bones of the five-bone bat fan, turning it into a large paper fan that was nearly twenty meters long and had a translucent texture!
It’s the kind of prop that often appears inexplicably in the hands of anime characters and hits other people’s heads with all kinds of random comments, creating a powerful yet humorous atmosphere!
[Yin Yang Technique——Xiao Le·Amazing★]
But Gu Xiaole’s original Yin Yang Technique when he was a child has reaped extremely terrifying results, directly sweeping more than 300 soldiers out of their bodies. Directly from the living to a lonely ghost.
If it were in reality, Gu Xiaole would naturally use various security methods to return these 'living souls' to their bodies. However, at this moment, because the positions are different and the opponent is already prepared to fight to death. Gu Xiaole, a loyal and confident soldier, did not show any mercy. After beating them until their souls were separated, he stood up and pushed out his hands to give those hundreds of souls a happy relief.
[Yin Yang Technique - Soul Taming·Hundred Ghosts and Yi Yi]
With Gu Xiaole's low chant, the bodies that had been in suspended animation suddenly had no chance of recovery due to the dissipation of their souls. At the same time, those elite soldiers under the Nightless King who were one step slower than the Great Onmyoji also came forward and used the cavalry as sharp knives to bite the tail of the troops in front of them.
It has to be said that the extremely strange fighting method of the Great Onmyoji was so high-pressure that it seriously delayed the retreat efficiency of Kasena and others. In addition, the cavalry were all heavy cavalry with terrifying propulsion and impact. Originally, The defenders, who had plenty of opportunities to shake off the enemy, were eventually entangled.
In this case, although Kasena wanted to leave her "subordinates" to protect her and retreat, she could not even give the opponent a head so easily, but she still gritted her teeth and said "cold-blooded" , rushing towards the direction from which he came.
During this process, it seemed that because the previous strong pursuit was too exhausting, Gu Xiaole, who retreated to his own troops, did not take action again, but sat side by side on the back of a horse in the middle of the team. He closed his eyes and rested his mind, and although the three elite troops under his command were powerful, they were also It was impossible to kill all the soldiers around Kasena in an instant, especially after the latter noticed that Gu Xiaole seemed to need to recover, and gradually moved to the back to fight with the pursuers who, although elite, were still not as good as him, both sides The battle damage could not be further increased in this situation of chasing and escaping.
So, as time went by, Kasena became more and more certain that she should be able to return to the city safely this time. Although nearly half of the troops sent by Lucie to support her this time had been destroyed, but She could already vaguely see [Black Onyx City]. She knew very well that in a few minutes, she would be able to cross the river and return under the cover of the defenders in the city. In this case, if the enemy behind persisted in pursuing them, it would probably be difficult. Take advantage.
In the final analysis, although these people are indeed elite, their number is limited after all. Without the support of a large number of cannon fodder (Lucie language), it is definitely not a wise move to forcefully cross the river under the nose of a large number of defenders. .
They seemed to be aware of this, and I don't know if it was because of Gu Xiaole's order. In short, the enemy soldiers who were chasing after them suddenly began to slow down, and actually allowed Kasena and others to drift away.
Then, at the moment when Kasena and Lucie on the city wall just breathed a sigh of relief——
With a tremor that was faintly visible at first, and then became more and more violent, a stream of silver A terrible wave came crashing down.
Almost at the same time, the four members of the [Sailor Moon] team heard a system prompt at the same time!
[Special goal: The Leaking Cauldron is completed, all attributes of all our NPCs will increase by 10%, and morale will increase slightly]
......
The Samler River has burst its banks.
