The Seven Seas Traveler is disappearing in the clouds.
Amidst the low roar of the magic cabin, Tianlan stared with wide eyes at the three crystals suspended above the wind element detector.
She hurriedly picked up the communication crystal, but almost dropped it on the ground. She finally held it down, and then shouted into the established communication channel in a panic:
"Brother Ed, call Brother Ed..."
"...Brother Ed, a large number of magic reactions were found in the clouds twenty miles in front of the Seven Seas Traveler, and elemental separation was detected. I suspect that they dropped the flying wing craft. I, I don't know the direction of the drop, but at least
Detected three times, please be careful, repeat, please be careful..."
Fang Plover waved the torch lightly.
He extinguished the torch, the light faded in the darkness, and only the panicked voice of the poet lady echoed in the surrounding space.
"We have guests coming," Fang Yu looked at the others with a bright light in his eyes. This was a bit beyond his expectation, but it was still within the pre-conceived plan.
He put his hand on the information crystal, and as he spoke, he drew out a ray of light from it - the blue light turned into a silver construct on his glove, and he gently held it -
There is only a little red light in the crystalline video crystal.
He raised his hand and gently threw it forward. The construct turned into a ray of silver light, passed through the darkness, and disappeared in the direction of the stairs.
The others also took off their weapons one by one without saying a word.
…
Kong turned around and looked at the burning fireball - it had passed through the city wall at an angle and crashed into the castle, knocking a big hole in the side of the building there. The wreckage of the flying wingship lay in the rubble.
Amidst the smoke, flames rose again from the thick smoke, illuminating half of the courtyard.
The old hunter let him go and he breathed a sigh of relief, but he still didn't recover. He just sat up and leaned on the battlements, looking in the direction of the courtyard, not quite understanding what was happening.
At this time, a hunter stood up from behind the battlements, held his hands on the battlements and looked out, but there was a scream in the darkness, and a sharp arrow penetrated through the layers of forest canopy, and hit the former in the chest from between the battlements.
From above, the man flew up and landed on the ground like a bundle of straw.
"Everyone bow their heads and spread out—" Saya's stern and decisive voice came from one side.
The female swordsman pulled out her long sword with her backhand, and knocked away the firewood in the bonfire with one strike. Sparks flew everywhere, and the city top returned to darkness.
Only the flames of the burning airship, which was half inserted into the building, came from afar.
The hunters all bent down and looked behind them. Sora was also looking in that direction. The man who was talking and laughing before was now lying on the ground with a stiff expression, looking numbly in one direction. And his body
Above, little white lights are rising in the darkness.
Although Kong had experienced the battle in the refugee camp, he had never suffered such a sudden attack. He was killed in one blow, and the attacker's body was not even exposed. This was definitely a master. The young man's heart was pounding.
He stood up, and the hand holding the bow couldn't help but sweat a little.
Just a hand stretched out from the darkness and pressed his shoulder. The old hunter looked in this direction with a calm look. "Don't be so nervous, young man." The other party said.
After saying this, the older hunter looked aside.
"It's a flying wing craft," Saya said with a frown: "The opponent should have left the vehicle a few hundred meters away, using a hang glider backpack, and the landing point was in the forest outside. They have discovered us
, but we still don’t know how many people there are on the other side. They are here with bad intentions. We must not sit back and wait for death. If they suppress us, they will definitely launch the next wave of offensive. Xiaokong, you go contact Captain Ed. As for the others -
—”
She looked at the hunters: "Let's split up and draw firepower on one side, while trying to get back the initiative on the other."
"I agree." The old hunter made a quick decision and nodded: "Let's attract firepower, and you find a way to find those people."
But Saya shook her head: "I don't have long-range capabilities. I will attract the firepower, and you will take the next step." After saying that, she did not give the other party a chance to refute, and just looked at the boy aside: "Xiao Kong,
Give me your shield."
Kong swallowed a mouthful of saliva, nodded quickly, took the kite shield from his back, and threw it over. Saya took the shield with one hand, met the opponent's eyes, gave him a firm look, and then stood up and hugged him closely.
On the battlements.
She secretly counted one, two, three, and then rushed forward in one stride.
Several feather arrows flew over, flew past the female swordsman's back, and fell into the courtyard.
The old hunter looked at this scene, raised the bow in his hand, and shouted in a low voice: "The redeemed, shoot freely."
They stood up, opened their bows, and a few arrows flew out of the darkness. Two or three of them flew out, but the others still released their bowstrings, and the intertwined rain of arrows passed through the air.
Sora took a nervous breath and watched Saya leap forward on top of the city, rolled to avoid the arrows, and let the arrows fall behind her. He looked at it for a moment, and then left in a panic.
He took out the communication crystal from his arms and then lit it up.
Several people fell down in the forest——
Lie Yan did not expect that the opponent's counterattack would come faster than expected. He thought that these redeemed people would be easy to deal with.
"Tell those newcomers not to rush so far forward, I don't have time to take care of them," he cursed in the communication channel, then raised his bow and aimed in the direction of the city.
Those hunters had disappeared in that direction. The female swordswoman's noises had attracted their attention before, but they would not make such a stupid mistake again. Suddenly, he heard a sound of wind coming from the darkness, and the hunting flames
He turned sideways very smartly, and the arrow hit the trunk of the cedar tree with a 'dong' sound. The arrow's feathers were still trembling with force.
The arrow came from another direction. Lie Yan was startled and looked at the tower in that direction - someone had moved to another direction. These people's reactions were so alert, which greatly exceeded his understanding of the original situation.
Residents’ perceptions.
Is there anyone among those people who is very familiar with their fighting methods? Who is it?
The shadow of the female swordsman instinctively appeared in his mind.
But just when he was distracted, a dim silver light flashed out of the darkness behind him.
Saya pressed the wound on her shoulder, blood was flowing profusely, and she was listening to the voice coming from the communication crystal: "Miss Saya, next I will provide you with the location of the other party——"
"Ed," she said, "the other party is a descendant of Flor. I am familiar with their fighting methods."
"Okay," Fang Plover replied, "You cooperate with me and we will find them."
Saya turned around and looked at her hand, only to see a bright red color between her fingers. She let go of her hand, gritted her teeth and nodded.
…
"Flying Wing Ship No. 2 begins delivery."
"Flying Wing Ship No. 2 separated."
The young man was lowering his head, fastening each buckle on his gloves somewhat absentmindedly, putting on his goggles, adjusting his collar, and then raised his head, listening to the faint sound of orders coming from above.
Liuying looked at the other party, a little envious of the other party's big nerve. She lowered her head and pulled out the dagger, checked it, and put it back into the sheath tied to her thigh. She checked each piece of her equipment one by one.
Then he breathed out lightly.
People passed by them from time to time, some they knew and some they didn't know. People they knew greeted them, "Six Shadows, has Kaka taken advantage of you recently?" "Go to hell." Six Shadows
I gave the guy a roll of his eyes.
The other party laughed and walked away. Those people met on the gun deck, and then walked forward amidst the sound of orders, passing by the officer who was standing there in charge of inspection. The latter looked at them, nodded, and waved.
He waved his hand to indicate that these people could pass.
Six Shadows watched those people quickly disappear up the stairs.
They are the next batch.
A bright light flashed through the cannon window, coming from the direction of the Fury. Six Shadows couldn't help but look in that direction, staring at the golden track across the night sky - that was where the Skyfire Guild was casting
Sending the second flying wing boat - She stared at the shadow of the sail lit by fire above the clouds, feeling a little incomprehensible for a moment.
Just to deal with a small team, so many guilds are needed to go to war in such a big way? Even if it is to ensure that nothing goes wrong, this is a bit too bizarre.
"Don't you think it's strange?" She turned around and asked Kaka.
Kaka raised his head: "What's weird?"
Liuying rolled his eyes angrily: "Don't ask questions knowingly -" She always felt that the guy in front of her was sometimes ridiculously smart, but sometimes he deliberately pretended to be confused, just like now.
Kaka yawned, with tears hanging from the corners of his eyes: "Why are you thinking so much? This is work. As long as you are not allowed to work overtime, if they ask you to work overtime, come and ask me why."
"Aren't you curious at all?"
"Of course I'm curious, but I'm more curious if I can return the JK suit you lent me last time at a later date?"
Liuying's eyes widened: "When did I lend you that thing!?"
Kaka suddenly woke up: "Isn't it true? You put it on the bed?"
A piece of red cloud flew up to the girl's cheek. She clenched her fists tightly and looked at this guy: "When did you enter my room?"
"Team 5——" a voice came from over there.
Kaka seemed to have heard the cry for help, and quickly grabbed the other person's hand: "Hurry, it's our turn."
"...Release me immediately!"
The deck of the Red Queen shook slightly.
After walking up the stairs and pushing open the cabin door, the noisy sounds on the deck were carried by the cold wind and rushed towards my face. Kaka shivered from the cold, and then let go of his partner's hand, "It's really lively,"
He sighed: "I know some people just like to see everyone performing their duties, as if this way the salary is valuable, but in fact I don't know how many of them are fishing in troubled waters."
"It's just you." Liuying gritted his teeth and replied.
The girl originally had the intention to ask the previous question, but was distracted and quickly attracted her attention to the scene in front of her.
The four flying wing boats parked around the deck of the Red Queen are warming up. They have previously delivered two flying wing boats and sent more than 20 people aboard. The entire fleet has already delivered seven flying wing boats as planned.
The landing points of the wing boats are distributed throughout the Altori region.
The pipes conveying magic power there emitted a faint fluorescent light, and the staff walked through them in a hurry. Some people were urgently repairing the magic engine. They wore different colors from others, and they were the alchemists on the ship.
Many people were lining up on the deck, and she could almost recognize the names of those teams. Although the people inside were from various branches, and she didn't know most of them, many of those teams with a long history came from the ten-year dynasty.
The era has been preserved to this day.
There were as many as a dozen or as few as three or five of the selectmen wearing Jeffree's red jerseys, and everyone was fully armed and ready to go.
Although the guy in front of her was a bit hateful, she had to admit that he was right - it was indeed a bit lively. Since the Changxia War, the descendants of Flor had not carried out such a large-scale operation for a long time.
Only last time their opponent was the Rainbow Alliance.
But this time it's just a small free adventure group, and the gap is really confusing.
"Actually, it's because of Hailin Crown."
Kaka suddenly spoke.
Liuying was slightly startled and turned back to look at the other party. This was a rare serious answer she heard.
"There are rumors from the outside that the Hailin Crown is in the hands of the Sea Witch Miya, but the relationship between Miya and that young man is extraordinary," Kaka's eyes reflected the fire that lit up the clouds, "and there are rumors about Dolifen.
Among them, information about Cang Zhihui was also mentioned——"
"And you really think the other party is easy to deal with?"
"There is a price to pay for underestimating your opponent."
Six Shadows looked at each other in surprise, and their hearts moved slightly. They couldn't help but subconsciously think of what happened in Fenris. That was their last mission before they were banned. Few people in the outside world knew that she, the guy in front of her, and the multi-talented
Riffin's heroes fought against each other.
But the Six Shadows didn't understand that their partner had actually had such an experience before, but it was not in Fenris, but at the end of the Long Summer War, which was later called the Battle of the Elf Ruins.
among.
Kaka lowered his head and looked at the clockwork fairy in his hand. The Dragon Alchemist had actually fought against him.
Liuying suddenly noticed that the guy in front of him raised his head and looked in one direction with some distraction. She couldn't help but look in that direction, but there was nothing special there. "What are you looking at?" she couldn't help but ask.
road.
"nothing."
The young man looked away in that direction and shook his head: "Let's go to the air crew. It seems that the mission assigned to us by the regiment leader should be to find the sailboat. The Marine Corps is already full of people."
"What did you say?"
Six Shadows was slightly startled, unable to keep up with the speed of the opponent's thoughts.
In the direction where Kaka was looking, a young man was also looking away from them. He watched the two disappear in the direction of the stern, and then turned around. "Baiju, boarding the boat." Not far away.
, his companions were waving to him.
Bai Ju looked at those people silently, nodded and walked over. "What are you looking at?" Someone bumped him with an elbow and asked: "Which branch is the beauty, or is it the young lady from other guilds?"
Bai Ju took a moment to look at the other person and smiled lightly: "It's nothing, I just saw a 'genius'."
"Genius?" The man looked in that direction with an astonished expression: "You mean him? That guy relies on his talent and doesn't take the tasks assigned by the guild seriously. I heard that after the Battle of Fenris,
The higher-ups already have an opinion on him. He is just a coward who flees without fighting."
"I heard that he was not allowed to join the Marine Corps this time. I'm afraid there is a reason..."
Listening to everyone's discussion, Bai Ju shook his head. These were just hearsay opinions. He and that person actually came out of the same youth training camp. Their results were the same, but he went there for a while.
The other party has only been away for a while.
He just couldn't stand the other party's lazy look. In fact, just like Liu Ying, there were only a few people who could get used to it. But he always felt that the other party's attitude was a sign of contempt for them.
With all the hard work he put in, how could someone like that achieve the same results as him?
He opened the hatch, stepped into the airship, walked through the narrow aisle, came to his seat and sat down. The person he was talking to sat directly opposite him, and both of them lowered their shelves.
, fixing yourself in the seat.
The leader of the brigade was the last to enter the flying wing boat, closed the hatch, then looked at everyone present, and then said: "Everyone checks their own safety measures. The location of the target has been determined. Our actions will make a difference."
We will deploy around the fort to support the group that has arrived and the Skyfire Guild's Flame Extinguisher Brigade."
"Actually, I'm wiping their butts," someone whispered, "I heard they asked for backup."
"We have to ask for support to deal with a bunch of savages. The people of the Second Association are really embarrassed." Everyone laughed softly: "But they have always been like this. Even the people of the Skyfire Guild are so unbearable. It is really unexpected."
Everyone nodded.
Bai Ju turned his head absentmindedly and looked outside the porthole of the card. The bright light passed through the sea of clouds and fell to the vast earth below like a flare.
He checked his gloves again, took the clockwork goblin off his coat one by one, looked at the magic power stored in the core crystal inside, and put them back one by one. The leader came over and took a look.
The movements of his hands stopped:
"This time it's up to you, Bai Ju. The opponent is not easy. But I believe you can't give in too much. You are one of the most talented newcomers who have come out of the youth training camp in the past few years. The Guild is very grateful to you."
I have high expectations, I guess you can still handle the people outside."
The white horse raised his head and nodded. Their target has always been the Spear of the Silver Forest, and even those people in the Silver Wislan, and even several talented newcomers from the Oak Knights of Tapolis.
Never caught their eyes.
The Dragon Alchemist may have some skills, but the world of combat craftsmen has never been determined solely by calculation power. When they came out of the bbk youth training camp, their starting line was already higher than most in the world.
People, let alone now after more than a year of experience in the first branch?
"I already have a way to deal with him." He replied in a low voice.
The group leader nodded with satisfaction, then passed him and sat down aside.
The communication crystals on everyone's chests lit up, and a low countdown sound came from inside:
"Flying Wing Ship No. 3 begins delivery."
"three,"
"two,"
"one."
"Flying Wing Ship No. 3 separated."
As he passed by, he felt a slight shock, his whole body felt weightless, and the airship he was sitting on seemed to be detached from something.
The scenery outside the porthole was changing rapidly, the Red Queen was getting farther and farther away, and soon there was only the sound of the whistling wind all around.
The airship entered the clouds and shook violently.
This ancient one-time delivery device was originally used to deliver dragon knights, but it was later modified by the selectors and can also be used to deliver personnel.
But this is not its job after all. The accident rate of flying wing boats is quite high. The crew needs to leave the cabin at the final stage and use the hang glider to land. Whether it is too early or too late, it will cause casualties.
Therefore, airships are often only used to deliver elite recruits with certain experience, members of various brigades, or marine members with wind element affinity who have been specially trained for this purpose.
For Bai Ju Guo Gai, they were obviously the former. He stared at the golden light flickering on the horizontal wings outside the porthole. That was the shield interacting with the wind element in the air. If not, with the speed of this thing, it would have been
It fell apart in the air.
The airship turned into a meteor falling into the night sky.
In the forest, Fang Plover was looking up at the long golden trail.
He shook the communication crystal in his hand and said in a low voice: "Mr. Gray Whistle, you hide with the others. The people who come may be the brigade of the descendants of Flor. In the next battle, you will intervene."
I can’t help it.”
"Captain Ed?"
"Listen to my order and we will meet outside the forest later." He interrupted the other party.
Fang Yu pressed out the crystal and looked at the corpse at his feet. The corpse was glowing with white light. There was a feather arrow stuck behind it, with the symbols that the Papalar people liked engraved on it. "This is the third party."
"One," Parker said, "Actually, I was still confident of keeping the other one, but that guy was too smart."
"Don't be too proud," Alyssa glanced at this guy: "These people are not the elite of the descendants of Flor. Their brigade members should still be behind. These people seem to be their core guild members, equivalent to
We are the elite group of rain listeners."
Fang Yu nodded and agreed with this statement.
However, Miss Nightingale said that the members of the other party's brigade had not arrived yet, which was probably not true. He gently moved the outer ring of the goggles with his hand, and at least in his field of vision, he saw something unusual.
…
Lie Yan was panting and hid in a room. He looked around. It seemed that this was once a study room. There were many bookshelves in the dark space, which were piled with books. Not far away was a
The desk, the desk seemed to have been rummaged through, the drawers were pulled out but not put back.
He wiped his sweat and stared at the portrait hanging on the wall not far away. The communication crystal on his chest flashed with dark red light, "Lie Yan, is Lie Yan here? This is the second communication channel, you guys
How's it going over there?"
What came from the other side of the crystal was the voice of someone from the Skyfire Guild.
He actually didn't want to show his cowardice in front of other guilds, but the guild asked them to cooperate with each other's actions. In fact, they came in to conduct fire reconnaissance - the reality was almost as expected. The redeemed were not difficult to deal with. After a fight,
, they invaded the castle.
They lost a few men during the battle for the city wall, but the opponent lost more. Moreover, they lost all newcomers who participated in the operation for the first time, while the opponent was obviously a veteran. But once they entered the courtyard, the subsequent battles became more difficult.
It became a bit hard to describe.
The female elf who suddenly appeared killed two of their team members in one encounter. In fact, the opponent's attack could not be said to be very powerful, but she appeared very elusive and her timing was perfect.
His best friend reacted immediately and turned around to prepare for a counterattack. But somehow, a bunch of vines wrapped around his hand, and then the green feather arrow passed through his throat and brought up
A splash of blood made him fall straight down.
Only then did he realize that the other party turned out to be a ranger with a druid level. It was not surprising that there were believers of Amaya in this place, but wasn't the profession of sacred tree guardian another way of saying unicorn girl?
?
How could that saint of a goddess appear in such a place and become their enemy?
Then the enemy followed them as if they had a pair of eyes behind them. The cunning Papalar appeared from time to time and took away a life with a crossbow. They knew that this was the work of the outstanding combat craftsman of the other party, but the team
The battle craftsmen among them were of no help at all, and had also lost their lives in a previous battle.
He got separated from several other people, and he thought that those two people were probably in trouble. He opened the communication list and looked at it, and sure enough he saw that their names were grayed out.
Lie Yan let out a heavy breath. He had actually expected this situation. They were originally used to accomplish all of this. He silently opened the light screen, entered the information he had recorded, and then clicked send.
Every piece of information on that was obtained at the cost of their lives.
After doing all this, Lie Yan picked up the crystal, calmed his breathing and replied: "I'm fine."
There was silence for a moment, with some admiration: "Well done, man, just stay there. Your mission has been completed, and now it's up to us. Every member of the Flame Destroyer Brigade would like to express our sincere gratitude to you."
pay tribute."
Lie Yan was slightly startled, and couldn't help but think that the name of the Skyfire Guild's brigade really matched his own.
He was about to say something joking, but at this moment, he suddenly raised his head stiffly and stared at a flickering silver light in the darkness there.
And under the silver light, in the dark crystal, the red light is becoming extremely bright.
Lie Yan opened his mouth in disbelief.
…
The white horse passed by and retracted its wings of wind, falling heavily into the snow. It rolled around before getting up and patting the snowflakes on its body.
The leader's voice came from the communication channel: "Everyone, please pay attention. News has just come from the Skyfire Guild. The first team has lost contact with us. The opponent's combat effectiveness is stronger than imagined. Each team first
Stay close to each other and pay attention to maintaining contact. The scout team can conduct reconnaissance in the direction of Snowstone Castle first."
A map was transmitted, forming a screen of light that opened in front of Bai Ju. The leader continued: "This is the information shared by the Skyfire Guild. This is the area they have explored. They asked us to form a formation facing the castle in the south.
Encircle, don't let anyone of the other side go."
Some people in the brigade channel complained. They were on par with the Flame Destroyer Brigade in terms of points ranking, or even slightly better. There was really no reason to obey the other party's command.
But since the group leader had no objection, the others could only mutter a few words in private.
Bai Ju Guo Ji didn't care too much about these false claims. He just looked at the map. The people of the Skyfire Guild worked very meticulously. The other party obviously also had one or more outstanding combat craftsmen. They marked on the map most of the enemies they had discovered, or
The areas where battles took place, and even where the first team members fell, are marked one by one.
In this way, the opponent's movement trajectory from the beginning of the battle to the present has a rough outline. However, this outline is not clear enough, especially in the direction of Snowstone Castle. There are still large blank areas. Baiju pointed at those places with his hand.
, suddenly there was an inspiration in my heart:
The opponent was breaking out to the west. After killing the first detachment, they should have left the castle.
He immediately reported his thoughts, then took out a few clockwork goblins, pulled down his goggles, and with a slight lift of his right hand, these little things flew lightly from the snow and rose into the night sky. Altogether
There are twenty-two clockwork goblins, but this is not his limit.
"Captain," he said while distracted from the control: "I will try to figure out the opponent's movement trajectory and provide you with support."
"give it to you."
The information coming over there was concise and to the point.
Bai Ju suddenly understood that these simple words contained trust. However, he did not think there was anything wrong with this. His performance in this team has always been worthy of everyone's trust.
The guild allocates resources to people like them, and they must be worthy of the value of training. This is what he despises the most about the guy who left the youth training camp with him. Every resource of the guild is a lot of people.
The results of hard work cannot be easily desecrated by anyone.
He gently guided his hand, and dozens of constructs flew through the cedar forest and flew in the predetermined direction. Under the narrow field of view mode, his reaction was extremely sensitive, and his concentrated attention allowed him to easily distinguish
Regardless of obstacles appearing from any direction, the dozens of clockwork goblins seemed to be given life, flying among the heavy tree canopies.
Baiju knew that his opponent also had such an ability, and even the control methods were superior to his own. Compared with the numbers, he was far behind. But this did not mean that he would definitely fail in this battle - because the definition of failure was
, depends on the purpose he wants to achieve.
For most people, competing for the first and second place will always seem so coveted, but from a fleeting perspective, combat craftsmen are just a part of the battlefield. What they want to accomplish is not defeating their opponents.
Fighting craftsmen, but to achieve their own set tactical goals in this battle.
The process is not important, what is important is the result.
Therefore, when the first clockwork goblin dimmed from his sight, he immediately understood that he had caught his opponent's tail.
He released the second batch of clockwork goblins, only four of them, but at the same time, he made the clockwork goblins on the other side stop, marked the location where he was attacked on the map, and watched closely what happened in that direction.
everything.
For a moment, he suddenly moved his right hand slightly, and a clockwork fairy suddenly left its original hovering position and flew deep into the forest.
On the other side of the battlefield, Fang Plover was slightly startled.
interesting--
This idea flashed through his mind involuntarily. He saw the dark red beam disappearing from his field of vision, but it did not penetrate the opponent's clockwork fairy, but left a shadow on the cedar trunk there.
Golden burn mark.
This was one of the rare times when his attack failed.
This reminded him of the fight he had with the blind follower's combat craftsman outside the smuggler's port in Istania a long time ago. The current combat craftsman was at least as good as the opponent.
Moreover, its operation method gave him a feeling of familiarity. He silently felt this familiarity, and the memories in his heart emerged one by one, gradually overlapping. Time seemed to go back to before everything that happened to Dolifen, in the elf ruins.
that night.
At that time, he also fought against a battle craftsman from the Jefflite Red Team. The two methods of operation were almost the same, with only some minor differences. He almost immediately understood what he had encountered.
opponent.
"People from Jefflett's Red Team," Fang Pliance couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. It wasn't that enemies didn't get together. He didn't expect that he would meet an old rival at such a time. He slightly said,
The Scoundrels got some back.
The other party's actions made him realize a problem - how did the clockwork goblin with its back to him detect the attack from behind? He immediately became sensitive to this - the surveillance network.
He used his clockwork goblins to build a 'supervisor network' in the forest, and included each clockwork goblin in a chain visual network to ensure that they could see each other's blind spots.
The opponent's actions were obviously not to discover their 'traces', but to detect the 'trajectory' of his clockwork goblin's attack.
