Since the start of the camp war, Li Ming has been observing the actions of the demon NPCs, trying to understand whether the system's instructions to the NPCs are static or have other characteristics.
He slowly discovered that these high-level NPCs in the spirit world, such as General Qingfeng and the two gods, as well as leader-level NPCs like the Demon Lord, were just like players on the battlefield, with the ability to set different tactics for various situations.
Ability.
In other words, the system gives these high-level NPCs the ability to adapt to changes in situation, and they can adopt some targeted tactics according to the corresponding situation.
For example, in the current situation, General Qingfeng led the knight army to cause some trouble to the Demon Lord's subordinates. Now the Demon Lord immediately retaliates and retreats all the Warcraft soldiers. Other combat legions of the Demon Lord's main army have already entered the battlefield.
cutting edge.
What appeared in front of Li Ming and the players was a large, dark army of demon knights, as well as various other shield warriors and warrior professions. Players' eyes widened when they saw various NPC figures.
At this time, the large sea of people lined up in the distant grassland still had a square formation of two demon shield warriors at the front, forming two shield wall defense lines on the left and right of the demon army.
There was a gap of about tens of meters in the middle of the shield wall, inside which was a neat formation of demon knights.
These demon knights are all tall, and each one rides an equally tall rhino warrior. All the rhinoceros warriors are protected by silver-white steel armor. The sharp horns on their heads, each
They are nearly two meters long and look like sharp spears.
All the demon knights wore shining black armor and held a rough giant ax in their hands. At a glance, it was obvious that they were fighting professions known for their strength.
On both sides of the knight's phalanx and behind the shield wall, there are even more densely packed warrior professions. Their appearance is very strange. Half of their bodies are humanoid, but the back half of their bodies is in the shape of a horse.
, four horse hooves stood on the ground, and each centaur warrior held a spear in both hands, which looked very strange.
"What formation is this? Are those centaurs and warriors also knights?" Avril asked in surprise as she watched the enemy appear.
"I don't know, but no matter what, we are going to run into trouble next." Fu Ziyan frowned and said.
Li Ming was also very puzzled by the large number of new enemy legions. Just like Avril asked, he also wanted to know whether the demon warriors were warriors or knights.
If they are also knight legions, then the number of knight legions that appear from the demon clan is a bit worrying...
The battlefield outside the city is currently very open. In such terrain, the power of the Knight Legion can be unleashed. As long as they speed up and run in groups from afar, no legion can stop them when they rush over.
The momentum of the knight's charge.
Especially when the number of knight legions increases, it becomes more difficult to prevent them.
If the enemy really has so many knights, Li Ming will have to consider whether to abandon the battlefield outside the city and retreat into Waning Moon City to rely on the city walls for defense.
The demon king's reaction was too fast. He immediately changed his tactics after suffering a small loss, leaving Li Ming speechless.
Now that the saint was not with him, he landed on the ground and found General Qing Feng in front of the crowd who was observing the enemy's situation.
"Sir General, the Demon King suddenly changed his tactics. The demon army sent this time looks a bit strange, especially those warriors. Do you know anything about it?" Li Ming asked quickly.
"That's a good question, commander-in-chief. The general has never heard of these centaur warriors before. It seems that this is the first time these strange guys have appeared in the battle between the two empires. The general is also curious about their identities." Qing.
General Feng shook his head and said.
"I understand, this is the ancient demon clan..." Li Ming frowned and looked at the sky. If he wanted to know the information about the ancient demon clan, he had only two ways, either to go to Shenjing City to ask Elder Huang Er, or to get it from the saint.
Get some news.
But now, the distance to Shenjing City is far away, and the time required for a round trip is too long. The battlefield is changing rapidly, and danger is very likely to occur.
And the saint is fighting in the air again, but there has been no news...
As Li Ming looked into the sky, he still saw bursts of golden lightning looming in the thick black clouds, but he still didn't know what the battle situation was like above.
It has been a long time since the Holy Maiden flew into the air. According to the reminders of the players, when Li Ming led the Beauty Butterfly team to carry out the rescue, the Holy Maiden once fell back to the top of the tower from the air, but only for a moment.
Then he used the tower to leap up again, and then disappeared.
In other words, the Saint will return to heaven every ten minutes or so. If you want to know the Saint's current situation, you can only wait for her next appearance...
But just a few seconds after Li Ming looked into the sky, a burst of golden lightning suddenly burst out in the black clouds, and then a ball of golden light flew out of the clouds like lightning, slanting towards the top of a wooden tower above the crowd.
fall……
Before Li Ming could make any reaction, the golden light flashed and the golden ball of light fell quickly. As soon as it landed on the top of the tower, it rushed straight into the sky like a spring without stopping at all.
Seeing the golden ball of light flying into the air again, Li Ming felt a little disappointed. He was about to take this opportunity to ask the saint, but he didn't have time to speak out.
But seeing the Saint return and attack again with his own eyes, he also felt a lot more at ease. At least it could prove that the Saint was still very safe.
"Lord Commander, if all those warriors are knights, then the demon army now has at least about 100,000 knights. This is very disadvantageous to us. Our shield wall and the protection of the gods cannot withstand such a large number of knights.
The knights are attacking, so the general requests that the commander-in-chief must quickly retreat all the legions outside the city to prevent the enemy from attacking with all his strength." General Qing Feng's voice sounded beside him.
"The general is right. If they are all knights, our current situation will be very dangerous... But the Saint is still fighting against the Dark Crow. If we withdraw into the city, what will she do?" Li Ming said.
The current Saintess relies on several wooden towers to maintain her flying status. If all the legions outside the city withdraw and all the enemies rush up, it will be equivalent to handing over the Saintly Lady to the enemy's territory. This is a price that Li Ming absolutely cannot bear!
You must know that the three major demon gods and the Demon Lord are watching eagerly from the opposite camp. Facing such a huge threat as the Saint, they will definitely launch an all-out siege, and even the Demon Lord may take action himself!
"This is troublesome. Your Majesty, the Commander-in-Chief, hurry up and recall the Saint. We will make other plans." General Qing Feng said helplessly.
"Don't worry, General. If the enemy has such a huge knight army, they will definitely have an absolute advantage in the battle outside the city. If it were me, they would attack immediately without any hesitation, so we will wait a little longer.
, If they don’t attack, it means these centaur warriors are not a knight corps." Li Ming thought.
"Your Majesty, Commander-in-Chief, let's just wait a moment and see what the enemy is doing." General Qing Feng could only nod his head and said.
