Chapter 100 Modern Warfare! Practical test!
In a lush bush full of thorns.
Under the light mist, a strange eyeball popped out. Its diameter was about two centimeters, about the same size as a small apple. It was a semi-real ultra-miniature construct. This eyeball was flying in mid-air ten meters above the ground, as if it had noticed something. When a three-eyed crow flew across the sky, it quickly hid in the dense black canopy.
About a hundred meters away from this magic eye, there is another equally hidden magic eye, but it does not fly around, but is hidden in the trunk of a twisted tree. It monitors everything nearby from all directions and 360 degrees without blind spots.
“Isn’t this a miniature reconnaissance drone?”
Xiao En's figure is on the outskirts of the black forest. Within a radius of about 1,600 meters with him as the center, there are thirteen semi-real magic eyes scattered around. All of them are 360-degree vision with no blind spots, scanning The field of view is about forty or fifty meters, and after dispersed operations, all surrounding intelligence can be detected. These magic eyes are quite concealed, possessing the hiding and detection capabilities of a tenth-level rogue. They fly silently, have perfect maneuverability, and are even more powerful than the most advanced drones in terms of performance.
“Can a modern warfare combat plan that integrates reconnaissance and attack be realized?”
Xiao En pondered for a while and found that he could only conduct reconnaissance at present and did not have the ability to integrate reconnaissance and attack. He said secretly: "But with these reconnaissance eyes, I can implement beyond-visual-range combat plans in the future."
Now, he has clearly touched the entire periphery of the black forest.
These reconnaissance eyes can last for ten hours, and do not require any charging during this period. Xiao En can resonate with these eyes through spiritual energy, and the process is like watching a surveillance video. If he takes back these magic eyes, everything seen by the detective magic eyes can be directly transmitted to his brain and reproduced by mysterious knowledge. In about six seconds, he can quickly review the images recorded by the magic eyes for an hour.
In other words, Xiao En only needs one minute to read all the intelligence information detected by the reconnaissance magic eye in ten hours.
This has the basic elements of modern information operations.
"Fight a modern war to test your abilities?"
"See how much my strength has improved?"
Xiao En deduced it in his mind With a quick decision, he quickly collected his rare items one by one, and at the same time transformed the collected berries into magic berries.
The outer area of the black forest.
This time, Xiao En entered this strange and deep forest without using the invisibility spell, because all of his thirteen reconnaissance eyes had been retracted, one for every 100 meters. intervals are distributed around the entire forest.
Xiao En is now using God's perspective, and there is no need for invisibility to cover his tracks.
"The reconnaissance magic eye still has six hours of duration, which is completely enough."
Xiao En began to further explore the entire black forest area. His current field of vision is about a thousand About six hundred meters, which is even more exaggerated than driving a perspective plug-in. After advancing for several kilometers in the black forest, he quickly discovered some traces of enemies.
"The straight-line distance is about one kilometer. There are five enemies, all of them are deformed Crow people."
Three hidden reconnaissance eyes flew up.
Under all-round surveillance, every move of these enemies cannot escape Xiao En's eyes. They should be the hunting team of the Crow people. There are no signs of farming in the nearby wild mutant creatures. What they do every day The supplies they need are basically gathering and hunting, which makes their group size not very large. But also because of nomadic hunting, their combat capabilities are very strong, equivalent to an ordinary night watchman. The strength of an arakkoa warrior is probably equal to William of the Dorne City Night Watch Team.
There is also a spellcaster among these monsters, possibly a warlock. The overall strength is about six and a half William, which is roughly equivalent to a Daisy.
"The other magic eyes dispersed for reconnaissance!"
Xiao En's figure quietly touched over. Since it was a simulated modern war, information and intelligence were definitely the first element. He needed to make sure that there were no other enemies nearby to support and interfere with his next actions.
Beside a burning campfire.
Five strange-looking arakkoa are eating. They are a vassal race of the owl. Their heads are weird crow heads, and their mouths have fine teeth. Their bodies are covered with feathers. Weak fire, Xiao En just happened to get the mage's signature fireball technique from the night witch's dimensional bag the day before yesterday, so he can practice with it.
The arakkoa’s recipes are quite complicated. They are omnivorous creatures. In a large pot, mushrooms, worms, dried meat and other ingredients are cooked. On the fire rack next to it, a section of marinated meat is also grilled. The tail looked like a lizard man's tail.
Next to the bonfire are their harvests, including weird blue fruits, captured large insects, hunted deer with deformed antlers, etc., as well as the corpse of half a lizard man.
There are more species in the forest terrain, and their lives are better than those of the lizardmen. Occasionally, they can catch meat from lizardman hunters who have crossed the border in the wild.
Little by little, Xiao En touched the distance of more than two hundred meters.
He first blessed himself with flight skills, and then added invisibility skills, so that he became a completely invisible flying creature. Because it is not a rogue path, he may be detected by the enemy if he gets too close. The arakkoa's hearing is still very keen.
This time it was mainly to test the latest spells he had mastered. After completely converting the wizard level into the arcanist level the day before yesterday, Xiao En learned a lot of new spells in one go.
For this, he would like to thank ‘the gift of nature’!
Because monsters from the spirit world have been giving him warmth these past few nights, Xiao En has the idea of fighting monsters and practicing both, but he has mastered many new spells.
The jungle resources in Weird Kingdom are really abundant!
——Shadow Black Tentacle (4th level spell).
Xiao En calculated the casting distance and hid behind a dense and curved oak tree. With the aura of the spell, a strong black tentacle suddenly emerged from the feet of the arakkoa people. This spell comes from the many-legged aberrations in the spiritual world. Xiao En caught a big fish on his first day out at night.
A powder keg blew it half to death.
Black tentacles emerged from the casting area. Strong black tentacles emerged from the soil, puddles, shrubs, and even the cauldron where the arakkoa were cooking soup, and they wrapped tightly around the place. All creatures in the area are trapped, trapping them with great force while constricting them to cause crushing damage.
The black tentacles summoned by Xiao En can superimpose his own spellcasting level. They have extraordinary power close to that of a warrior. Once the grapple is successfully entangled, they will not let go.
These arakkoa were completely caught off guard, and they didn’t even know where the enemy was!
——Fireball (3rd level spell).
Xiao En calmly rolled out a huge fireball, and with a violent explosion, a small pit about three meters in diameter was blown out on the ground. They were directly blown into pieces of limbs and arms all over the ground, and the other arakkoa were basically seriously injured and on the verge of death.
"It is indeed the mage's signature ability, Fireball. Its power is top-notch among low-level spells."
The casting distance of Fireball is very far.
With Xiao En's current casting level, he can probably cast fireball more than two hundred meters away. In the future, each professional level can increase the casting distance. If combined with super magic ability, the range can be doubled. above.
You must know that the effective range of many modern firearms is not that far.
The diameter of the fireball explosion is about fifteen meters, its power is close to that of the howitzer in the previous life, and it also adds a layer of damage from incendiary bombs.
Overall, the fireball technique is quite easy to use. After all, it is the mage's signature skill. As soon as Xiao En fired the fireball technique, there were only four and a half roast crows left on the battlefield.
If you have hair, you will weaken the fire. The ancients do not deceive me.
“The shadow black tentacles need to be replaced.”
“In fact, you can kill one or two first without using the shadow black tentacles, but without the black tentacle control of the starting hand, the warlock path Spellcasters are difficult to deal with."
Xiao En summed up his experience while fighting, and directly drew his gun and shot at the remaining heads.
Today's combat goal is for him to challenge the entire outskirts of the arakkoa settlement by himself.
The grapple and restraint of the black tentacles can interrupt the casting of spells. The caster's strength attribute is already low. If he is strangled by the black tentacles, he will not be able to use any spells. And without the restraints of the black tentacles, the enemy may react, and instead of being caught off guard, they can reflect and dodge in advance when the fireball is flying. Even if it can explode, it will only cause half damage, and it may not be possible to harvest them all.
Overall, the tactics are not wrong, but the magic power needs to be further conserved. "Entanglement can also achieve similar effects, but the casting range of that strange object is a bit short. After all, it is a druid's spell, not my native spell."
Xiao En asked the reconnaissance eyes to guard the surroundings, and he quickly landed to collect the loot.
He also learned many new spells from the Night Witch's extraordinary relics. Because of the first-level magic missiles of the force field system, he is no longer as dependent on firearms as before.
Magic missiles can automatically track enemies, but their flying speed is not as fast as bullets.
In terms of damage, ordinary firearms are similar to magic missiles. In the game's description, the damage is single digits. Fortunately, ordinary monsters do not have much health. The effect of magic missiles on the enemy is not much different from that of bullets. They are all kinetic damage from the force field system. The advantage is that they can track the enemy on their own, but the disadvantage is that they are not as smooth as the bullet storm.
Xiao En has not yet mastered the metamagic ability of 'instant spell casting', and spells of higher levels are also in short supply. Missile Storm will probably have to wait a little longer.
“But as a modern Earthling, it’s reasonable for me to like using firearms, right?”
"I like both Bullet Storm and Missile Storm."
"This is reasonable, right?"
Xiao En found that he was indeed suitable to be a spell caster because he had the innate ability to 'Lack of firepower phobia' is still something that cannot be cured.
——Alert mode.
Xiao En doesn’t know if other people’s reconnaissance eyes are as flexible and easy to use as his own, but he has psychic power and can directly communicate with his mind to issue new immediate commands to the reconnaissance eyes.
The thirteen reconnaissance eyes dispersed automatically like micro drones.
Swarm operation requires a very strong mind, and Xiao En is not able to do it yet.
Xiao En collected the loot and found a staff, which was left by the arakkoa warlock.
“Fortunately, I killed it. This guy has a lot of strange things on his body!”
In team battles, priority is given to dealing with spellcasters with high bursts.
This is similar to playing games in my previous life.
Alert!
Xiao En suddenly stood up on alert, immediately recalled the nearby reconnaissance eyes, and at the same time evacuated in another direction.
A ruthless character is here!
He can't beat him yet, and he doesn't even know the enemy's strength.
——The cabin in the forest [large structure] [cursed creation] [activated building].
A dull sound of footsteps came.
Out of Xiao En's sight, within the sight of the reconnaissance eye, a weird cabin in the forest slowly walked over. It discovered the corpses of these arakkoa, and then placed them on their corpses. It was disguised as an ordinary wooden house, with thorns and vines extending out from the support pillars of the feet, directly taking root and piercing into the flesh of the corpse.
It is digesting the corpse of the arakkoa, absorbing nutrients from the flesh and blood.
“Can I beat this thing?”
Xiao En was about three hundred meters away, and three reconnaissance eyes were monitoring the enemy at the same time by sea, land and air.
He thought for a while and decided to forget it, mainly because he didn’t know what the enemy’s strength was.
He died mysteriously last time.
Maybe this thing is more difficult to deal with than the leader of the lizard people, because Xiao En has not been exposed to the knowledge of this kind of cursed creation.
“Don’t fight a battle that you are completely unsure of!”
Xiao En retracted the surrounding reconnaissance eyes and flew around himself again. The combination of surveillance and attack now requires him to fight outside the enemy's visual range, and the operation difficulty is still relatively high.
However, this also has an advantage, that is, when Xiao En launches a preemptive offensive, the enemy is basically caught off guard.
“Integration of reconnaissance and strike, followed by small-scale tactical cutting.”
“I haven’t obtained the spell of any door yet.”
“It’s just that If I rely on dimensional jumping, I can only make short-distance raids on the battlefield. If I want to fully simulate the surgical knife action in modern warfare, I must further improve the teleportation ability.”
With one person's ability, he can perform tactical cuts on a group of enemies, and execute combat plans such as disruption (illusion), rear interruption, and beheading in small-scale battles.
Xiao En has a spell that cannot be circumvented, and that is the portal.
His current flying skills are a bit exhausted. He currently encounters few enemies. When he faces more enemies, his flying skills will seem to be stretched thin.
“Today is just a tactical test.”
“Currently, the techniques of modern warfare can be applied to the battle in the grotesque kingdom, it just requires a spellcaster to realize it.”
"I currently lack the summoning ability of the conjuration system."
"If there is a summoning spell, I can even use the thirty-six strategies in my previous life. It is undoubtedly very suitable for summons to fill holes. "
Xiao En's tactical ideas are not dealing with these arakkoa people, but all with the lizardman tribe as the imaginary enemy.
"There is also a golem army."
"This requires a lot of money. My current financial resources are estimated to only be able to make one or two clay golems."
Tactical testing continues.
Xiao En is going to test the feasibility of disrupting and beheading in actual combat. He doesn't have many illusion skills, but it should be no problem to use it to confuse small groups of enemies.
Now he wants to apply all the knowledge of the earth to the weird kingdom.
Even, if the actual combat test is feasible, the things in the science fiction movies that the earth has seen in previous lives can also be used in reality.
