"Huh~ Did you reach the third ring all at once? I didn't expect it to be so fast~"
After blowing a whistle, Liu Yifei's figure emerged from the gradually dissipating teleportation white light.
Before saying goodbye to the little assassin, Liu Yifei told the little assassin his thoughts. Judging from the two branch choices given in the mission, it seemed that there were considerable benefits in choosing either side. If Liu Yifei was really allowed to choose by himself, I'm afraid that he
I also hesitate and find it difficult to make a decision.
However, the biggest advantage of being a bystander is that you can get out of the circle of interests and analyze the situation from a purer perspective.
When the little assassin described the mission situation to Liu Yifei, he had a vague idea in his mind. It was not yet real at first, but later he heard the little assassin complain and said: "Oh, it seems that both ways are good.
Why do I have to choose? How great would it be if all the benefits were mine?"
As the saying goes, the speaker has no intention but the listener has the intention. The little assassin just said something like a complaint, but it made Liu Yifei's thoughts extremely clear!
Yes, why can't we choose both paths at the same time?
In the mission, there is no requirement that players cannot take another path after choosing one path!
Therefore, Liu Yifei's suggestion is to let the little assassin give it a try!
He himself led a large army towards Hefeng City, and finally stationed in Hefeng City and garrisoned in place.
On the other side, the little assassin simultaneously controls the gargoyle troops to advance towards the ice and snow fortress at the highest speed! The method is also simple!
Just keep one gargoyle protruding from the main formation to serve as a scout!
Although the player himself is not at the scene, it is difficult to check the situation at that time, but once a battle breaks out on the road, the player can also estimate the opponent's strength by the speed at which the unit loses HP.
If the strength is not strong, the scouts will retreat and the main formation will press forward to break through the enemy's defense line!
If the opponent is stronger, the scouts will be used as cannon fodder to lure the enemy away from the route, and the main formation will take the opportunity to rush through!
And if the gargoyles are sacrificed in the first moment of the battle, it means that the enemy's firepower is too strong and it is not suitable to attack by force. The remaining gargoyles can only be allowed to move forward in a large detour.
There are ten gargoyles in the hands of the little assassin. As long as his luck is not very bad, it should not be a big problem to join the main force of the Ice and Snow Fortress. After all, the level where the little assassin was originally located is the front line of the war, and the enemy has not yet penetrated into their territory.
Behind the scenes, if the little assassin operates properly and has a little luck, it is not impossible to reach the Ice and Snow Fortress without any damage.
As for the benefits of doing so...
Liu Yifei didn't say too much. According to his estimation, at least some reinforcements can always be obtained, right?
Even if they fail to win, the loss will not be serious for the little assassins who will fight defensive battles later. After all, in a city defense battle, melee troops and long-range firepower are the best combination.
It wasn't until he watched the eager little assassin choose to enter the mission space that Liu Yifei chuckled and began to analyze the situation on his side.
Compared with the complicated choices in the little assassin, Liu Yifei's part is relatively simple.
Mission plot design: Due to Commander Liu Yun's outstanding performance and strong control of the battlefield, our side has gained a clear advantage in this area, and its strength has completely overwhelmed the attacking troops in the dungeon!
But the terrible thing is that as the enemy forces on the opposite side slowly focus their attention on this front, more and more enemies begin to gather here!
According to intelligence, a total of four enemy strongholds in the other two directions have noticed their defeat on this battlefield.
In order to provide checks and balances, these four strongholds will continue to attack the territory controlled by Liu Yifei in the next time! Liu Yifei's task is to withstand the test and ensure the safety of the occupied fortress, at least, in half an hour.
Make sure that one stronghold is still in your own hands!
Of course, in order to support Liu Yifei, the Tower Clan will also mobilize troops to assist in the battle. But the worst thing is that due to the tight military strength of the Tower Clan, there may only be two strongholds that can send troops to Liu Yifei's territory, and due to the incident
If something unexpected happens, our support troops will arrive later than the enemy...
To put it bluntly, it is a four-on-three situation, and the enemy is faster. In a short period of time, it may be Liu Yifei one-on-four~
The situation seems tense and difficult to resolve, but in fact it is not invulnerable.
As soon as he entered the mission space, Liu Yifei saw that the mission map at this moment was much larger than the previous two rings!
In the first round, the battlefield space that Liu Yifei could explore was only a kilometer around the initial level.
By the time we reach the second ring, the distance between the initial checkpoints, fortresses, and enemy strongholds has exceeded ten kilometers.
This time, the total number of maps in the previous second ring only occupies one-third of the new map, all of which are located in the lower left corner.
Except for this third of the space, which has been fully explored by Liu Yifei, the opposite side is the enemy's occupied area!
In this dark occupied area, there are four huge red dots that stand out~
No need to guess, Liu Yifei knew that these were the locations of the four major strongholds that his enemies would soon attack.
But what makes him quite happy is that he can actually see the time when the enemy is ready to attack him in the battlefield information!
Being able to grasp the time will make you more calm and flexible in mobilizing troops~
Judging from the battlefield information, the enemy located on the left side of the center of the map will attack us first, and the time will be four minutes and forty seconds later, followed by the enemy located on the right, and our first reinforcement will be with the enemy's
The third attack arrived at about the same time, and finally came the enemy's fourth attack. Liu Yifei's second reinforcements would not arrive until more than three minutes after this attack.
The fastest attack was almost five minutes later, and the farthest attack was still more than ten minutes away. However, the system asked Liu Yifei to resist the enemy's attack for at least half an hour. This shows that the enemy's attack is not only
There is only one wave.
From this point of view, the fighting intensity here is indeed very high~
It's just that this arrangement not only doesn't bother Liu Yifei, but makes him even more excited!
For Liu Yifei, who now has a large number of goblins under his command, military merit means combat effectiveness!
Although Liu Yifei completed the previous two missions very well, in addition to getting a small amount of military merit by destroying enemy units in the mission, after completing a side mission that continuously awarded military merit, the mission itself did not count military merit, totaling 4200
The extra military merit (3000 points is accumulated from 500 points every ten minutes in the last hour) only allowed Liu Yifei to upgrade 42 great fairies.
Although it is very difficult to expand so much combat power in an instant, Liu Yifei feels extremely melancholy when he considers that he still has more than a hundred goblins that have not been upgraded and do not have real battlefield lethality!
You know, if he could upgrade all the little goblins into big goblins at this time, the difficulty of this high-intensity defensive battle would be reduced by at least two levels!
A salvo fired by more than 150 big goblins is very fatal! Even if a sixth-level creature comes, it will not dare to resist head-on!
However, if he wants to obtain this combat power, Liu Yifei still has a gap of more than 10,000 military merits. If he doesn't expect to fight a serious battle, where can he get so many military merits (it takes 100 military merits for a little goblin to be promoted to a big goblin, and he still has 100 military merits at the moment)
In the early stages of the campaign, the actual cumulative value of military merit is only 10 of the normal value, so this gap is quite huge)?
After carefully examining the battlefield information, Liu Yifei found that there were quite a few branches that he could do in this mission!
In addition to normal fixed-point patrols, destroying monsters within the territory, visiting special buildings, and rescuing accidentally trapped people, what is particularly noteworthy is a large branch called "Opening the Mountain Road".
According to the mission information description, although Liu Yifei has only requested support from two of his own strongholds that are relatively close to him, in fact, there is a third friendly stronghold not far from Liu Yifei's territory on the edge of the battlefield.
The reason why the other party did not agree to send troops for reinforcements at the first time was because the originally smooth route between the two places was now occupied by a group of powerful unknown monsters!
According to the descriptions of the refugees who came back, they seemed to be a group of powerful foreign bandits! Not only were they numerous, but they were also led by a very powerful hero!
A large army of wild monsters, possibly led by a wandering hero or a boss?
This is indeed a ruthless character who is not easy to mess with!
What's even more troublesome is that even if the bandits are driven away, the communication between the two places cannot be established quickly~
In the previous attack by the bandits, they also triggered an avalanche on the mountain! At this moment, the road between the two places has been completely blocked. If he wants to get more reinforcements from the third road, Liu Yifei must send enough troops to clear the mountain road there.
Clean it up.
"Holy crap! Is this okay? This task is simply tailor-made for me!"
Just after reading the task description, Liu Yifei was so excited that his eyes turned red!
At this time, Liu Yifei's troops can be said to be in a very strange state~
Let's say he is short of troops. Liu Yifei has more than a hundred little goblins in his hands that are completely useless.
If you send these little goblins on the battlefield, they will simply bring military glory and kills to the opponent.
But just letting them huddle in the rear in boredom is another huge waste of combat power! It can be called the most useless of all!
And if you say that Liu Yifei has no shortage of troops...
Anyone who dares to say that will be in a hurry!
It’s lacking! Why isn’t it lacking?
Now for every two more soldiers, you can actually get one soldier after passing the level! As long as it is level 2 or above, it is a fully cherished combat power!
And the current task of "opening up roads" is undoubtedly to Liu Yifei's taste!
It can not only solve the embarrassment of a large number of little goblins having nothing to do, but also get more reinforcements for him in the future. It is simply a blessing from heaven!
Originally, Liu Yifei wanted to rush over and destroy an enemy stronghold before the enemy's troops were completely assembled. Now he couldn't sit still at all. After ordering all the flying units in the fortress and a large group of goblins, he was on fire.
Go to where the "robbers" are gathering!
For this part of the mission, in addition to the large number of soldiers Liu Yifei brought in, the system also initially assigned thirty great goblins, twenty-five gargoyles, twenty iron men, fifteen gunmen and ten lamp monsters.
To Liu Yifei.
In this way, Liu Yifei had a powerful flying force composed of forty-five gargoyles and ten lantern monsters!
Coupled with the snow and dust rolling on the ground, the goblin army was killing them forward, and it felt like a thousand troops!
If other players from the Tower Clan found out that one person suddenly gathered so many elite mercenaries, they would definitely feel incredible! If they were told that this player was not even a player from the Tower Clan, perhaps their expressions would be even worse.
Wonderful~
Initially, Liu Yifei felt a little proud when he thought of this, but when he looked down from the sky and observed the group of "foreign bandits", Liu Yifei truly understood what "unexpectedness" meant!
The moment he saw the enemy's appearance, Liu Yifei's jaw almost broke to the ground, and his eyes were as big as a fist!
because......
What he saw was a large group of savages!!!
The Lord of Darkness appears! How did these bloodthirsty barbarians end up in such a barren place?
On the way here, Liu Yifei thought of thousands of enemies he might encounter. They might be rebel deserters from the Tower Clan, they might be spies lurking in the dungeon, they might be irrelevant neutral creatures, or they might be aliens.
He can accept it even if human soldiers sneak in and plot evil.
But, barbarians?
This is really quite humorous...
As we all know, on the world map, the barbarian sphere of influence is at the intersection between the central and southern human forces and the northern elven forces.
In this vast plateau area, barbarians live scattered in the form of their unique clans and tribes. In addition to a nominal national power, the most important ones are several large tribes.
But barbarians are also the camp that chooses to become "mercenaries" and wander around the world the most among all camps.
Therefore, they are also active in the human race, the elven clan, and even in the demon clan's territory, you can often see some strong and tall barbarians gathering in taverns and in front of the mission information board.
But Liu Yifei didn't expect that in this all-out conflict between the tower clan and the dungeon camp, the barbarians could also be seen!
Could it be that... these guys were hired by the dungeons to kill as outposts?
There may be no time to think about it. The situation is urgent. Every second of delay will bring the siege army one step closer to their fortress. Every minute of delay, the planned reinforcements may be reduced by one batch~
So as soon as he locked the opponent's position, Liu Yifei took the lead and launched a combat dive!
Sharp sounds of breaking through the air were heard one after another, and the sharp wings of the gargoyles drew sharp roars one after another in the air. Before they even got close to the enemy, the momentum of the charge had already reached its extreme!
Not only that, at the moment when the two sides were about to collide, a dozen dazzling blue lights suddenly lit up from behind the battlefield!
And at this moment, Liu Yifei suddenly felt a strength added to his body, and around him, a protective shield formed by a hurricane began to rotate rapidly!
Hey, as expected, none of these blue-skinned lamp monsters, as powerful fifth-level creatures, are vegetarians!
Liu Yifei secretly praised in his heart, shook his hands and shot the first chain lightning forward!
In an instant, the silver snake pierced through the air, sparkling with lightning...
