Considering the situation of the entire team, Lawrence nodded and allowed Nora's reconnaissance activities, and then watched her disappear into a patch of khaki sand. Then, the entire team lay quietly on the sand dunes.
After waiting, fortunately, it only took an hour, and Nora successfully completed the reconnaissance mission and flew back.
"How's the situation?" Looking at the dusty little doll that was flying in and out of the sandstorm, Lawrence quickly took out wet towels and a bottle of water and handed them to her, feeling a little distressed at the same time.
asked. "Also, you didn't encounter any danger when you flew over for reconnaissance just now, right?"
"There is no accident." Nora replied as she took off the khaki cloak and wiped the dust on her hands, head and face with the wet towel, "I just checked, the other party is in those places
Buried are some magic props used for reconnaissance. These magic props can detect the existence of nearby life and the movement of some large objects. If we had just rushed over boldly, we would probably have been discovered by the other party."
"In addition, I found that the other party also laid mines in some places." Nora said, taking out a piece of paper from her arms. On the paper was a sketch of the area, with many red dots on it.
"These mines are distributed relatively regularly, mainly at the entrance of this crater."
"The terrain of the entire crater is very special. There is only one entrance to it." Nora said as she grabbed the sand and stones on the ground and piled up a small sand table based on the results of her own investigation. "This entrance has nothing to do with us.
The current position formed an angle of 90°, and I saw a canyon that zigzagged toward the interior of the crater."
"There are about ten people stationed at the mouth of this canyon, which is only about ten meters in diameter. Their clothes and weapons are very messy, but they are also very sophisticated. They should be gunmen who make a living in this area. Six of them are stationed in the canyon.
There is a turning point of seven or eight meters, and the other four people are distributed on the mountain walls on both sides. The distance between these sentry posts is relatively far. If you want to attack by force, it is difficult to guarantee that you will kill them in an instant without letting them send a signal."
"But the good news is that except for the entrance, there are only extremely scattered alarm devices and some preset explosives on the mountain walls elsewhere." After Nora said this, she stretched out her right hand and touched the sand table in an imposing manner.
Drawing a circle. "Although the mountains around the crater are more difficult to climb, I think it is not an insurmountable chasm for most of us. At least from my personal point of view, we will launch an attack soon.
It’s best to climb up from the mountain wall.”
"Aren't there people stationed at those commanding heights on the top of the mountain?" When Nora said this, a young Holy Knight of the Earth Mother suddenly interjected and asked. In this era, the Holy Knights of various churches often have only small-scale adventure experience.
He also received formal military training. So this paladin was quite curious why no one was stationed at the commanding heights of this mountainous area.
"No." The little puppet shook his head and said, "This is what I want to say next. Although this location is a crater, it is actually not the same as a crater or a volcano. There are very few flat areas inside this crater.
, they are all mountains. It is not so much a crater, but a rounded mountain group composed of a lot of small mountains.”
"For this reason, it doesn't make much sense for the opponent to be stationed on the commanding heights. Because no matter which commanding point it is, there will be a lot of blind spots, and if you want to completely eliminate the blind spots, it will require a lot of manpower. I don't think the opponent may be able to waste so many people on it.
On top of this."
"And when I browsed the outer mountains and flew close to the ground in a spiral for reconnaissance, I could feel that there was a special power permeating the space around the central area of the crater. It felt like it belonged to some kind of god. So in order not to alarm the other party,
I simply gave up the investigation and withdrew."
After finishing his statement about the content of his investigation, the little doll floated obediently next to Lawrence and drank water. The team members gathered together to discuss. Based on Nora's statement, they were basically sure that they
The goal for this time is right in front of us, and the next step is about how to act.
After a brief discussion, everyone quickly decided to follow Nora's suggestion just now and climb up from the side of the crater entrance, which is the side facing them, and then discovered the magical person by approaching Nora from the side.
area. As for the next action, we can only make a decision after on-site observation.
After making the decision, Lawrence and the others retreated to join the main force. After briefly introducing the specific situation outside, the entire team quickly split into two parts, with the smaller part responsible for staying in place.
While guarding the camels, they also guarded the retreat, while Lawrence and the others were responsible for launching a surprise attack with the main force of the team.
With the help of the priests of the Church of the Mother Earth, Lawrence and the others easily bypassed the magical reconnaissance facilities located on the flat Gobi Desert. I don't know whether it was because of the other party's inexperience or other problems, but the detection range of these reconnaissance facilities was not
They were not overlapping each other as they had feared before. With the guidance of the Mother Earth Priest, they easily watched the safe areas in the middle of the detection range quickly approach the mountain.
Because of the cover of the sandstorm, Lawrence and the others successfully approached the crater and started climbing. Although there were some extraordinary people in the team who looked at least 50 years old, their extraordinary strength allowed them to run on the mountain.
No worse than a young man like Lawrence.
After spending a little time climbing over the valley, they began to advance along a series of mountains towards the center of the crater. Because they were worried about the existence of fortification points inside the mountains, Lawrence and the others chose to advance little by little along the small mountains inside the crater, and
Use the rocks on these mountains for cover.
Their journey along the way could be said to be very smooth. If there were any surprises, the only surprise was that they found fresh camel excrement and footprints on the ground in several sheltered places under the mountains. This further confirmed that this place should be
What they are looking for.
"This is it." When everyone was traveling to the center of a mountain range that was not much different from the surrounding small mountains, Nora, who was flying at the front, suddenly raised a hand to signal everyone to stop. "It's just a dozen meters in front of us.
The place is the space enveloped by divine power."
After hearing Nora's words, the entire team stopped. Then Lawrence and the priests in the team moved forward to the edge of the area to check. After a brief inspection, they found that the space in front of them was filled with
Some kind of power belonging to the gods that is a little strange to everyone.
However, because he is a non-professional, Lawrence can only feel that this power has a special vitality and some kind of power related to water. But the professional priests in the team quickly determined this group of divine power.
What does it represent?
"There's something wrong with the power of this god." After some inspection, a priest of the Goddess of Wealth, holding a golden, gem-studded magic instrument similar to a celestial globe, came over and said, "This is not that.
The power of the Zerg prince Obox. Obo should be the power of some kind of water-related deity.”
"Then what should we do next?" Hearing that there seemed to be something wrong with the target, Lawrence immediately became nervous and asked the eldest priest in the team.
"Of course we acted according to the plan." The priest said without hesitation. "Anyway, it is too suspicious to do this kind of thing in such an inaccessible place. If we encounter it, we will definitely not let it go."
