Chapter 173 Encircle and kill the dragon python
Fight, fight!
The Thunder Beast Battalion once again entered a combat state. Leon mobilized 70% of the force of the camp and threw himself into this siege battle against the swamp black dragon python.
The morale of the soldiers in the camp is high. After continuous training and repeated wars, the spirit of bravery and belligerence has penetrated into their bone marrow and completed the pre-war preparations in the shortest time.
Today's thunder beast camp can be said to be armed to the teeth. Except for archers and heavy soldiers, all soldiers are equipped with fine iron armor. Sal's rich iron resources and excellent craftsmen, the best weapons made are to equip the camp at the first time to improve the strength of the territorial army to The level of the elite army of the kingdom.
Aklan, Rock Hammer, Rose, Concordia, Iron, Subaru, Elder Ug... The Sal collar can be said to be full of elites, leaving only the elders of Montan to sit in the city of Sal.
Master Bloom and three temple knights accompany. Although the temple knights are only responsible for protecting the safety of Master Bloom and do not directly participate in the battle, their strength can also play a role at critical moments.
The morning after Leon returned to Sal City, eight hundred thunder beast warriors boarded the water demon's shuttle boat and marched majestically towards the Everglades.
Due to the large number of people, the speed of the fleet was much slower than the time, and it took three days and two nights to reach the Green Heart Island of Tengt Lake.
The Naga people got the news of the thunder beast camp in advance. They designated a temporary camp near the Green Heart Island Temple in advance, and mobilized thousands of swamp water demons to provide response services to help the camp successfully complete the camp.
The beautiful Holy Lake Green Island, the strange and mysterious Naga, opened the eyes of the soldiers of the Thunder Beast Camp.
Strict discipline, tough temperament, excellent equipment... Looking at these murderous orc warriors, Naga's mother Capeshan's confidence in Leon has greatly increased.
"What are you going to do?"
"Tomorrow morning, we will first arrange a large array trap, and then lure the black dragon python into it and then besieged!" Leon replied without hesitation.
With the help of Master Bloom, the way to deal with the swamp black dragon python has become very simple, but whether it can succeed depends on the specific situation. Leon has also prepared for the worst.
No matter what, he will take down this powerful Warcraft this time.
"Good!" Capeshan nodded with satisfaction: "Tomorrow I will personally take people to participate in the battle. As long as you can break the black water armor of the black dragon python, our spell can cause damage to it."
Naga is a natural caster with a high water system talent casting ability, but the black dragon python has the talent of exemption from water system spells. Its black water armor can completely ignore the attack of the water ice system, unless the power of the caster is far superior to it.
And Capeshan, the strongest of the Naga tribe, is also inferior to the black dragon python. Naturally, it is impossible to break this layer of armor to pose a threat to the black dragon python.
The next morning, after a night's rest, the thunder beast camp set out to meet new challenges.
It's just different from when they came to Green Heart Island. Their actions were much more low-key and careful. The shuttle ships were not in groups, but slowly sneaked into the nest of the black dragon python in batches.
This is to guard against the black dragon python's running dog tentacle squid monster. In case you accidentally hit the grass and startle the snake, the consequences are really unpredictable.
Leon set the ambush site near the landing site that had previously entered the mangrove forest. The terrain here is relatively flat and open, and there are few mud ponds and muds that make people move unchanged, which is conducive to the battle camp to attack.
Bloom immediately began to set up the magic trap.
The white-robed priest of the Tormond Temple has unique achievements in mana architecture and halo array. Leon once witnessed him arrange the array in his study, and the slow halo array finally helped Leon resist a dangerous assassination.
But the small magic array in the study and the large magic array in the wild are completely different things, especially to deal with a powerful warcraft. There are dozens of kinds of materials brought by Bloom.
"... magic array projection!"
The obscure spell echoed low on the swamp. The white-robed priest raised the staff in his hand high, and a dazzling silver light bloomed on the head of the staff, turning into countless bright spots and sprinkling them on the earth one after another.
These bright spots seem to have spiritual surnames. They are centered on Bloom and gather according to a certain rule within a range of nearly 100 feet around them, and finally form a huge and complex magic array pattern on the ground.
The three guard knights moved. They pulled out their knight' swords, poured pure soul power into the body of the sword to stimulate the sword light, and then began to shape the array according to the silver line on the ground.
The sword light easily breaks through the soft ground and leaves traces up to half a foot deep. The power contained in the sword light evaporates the water in the soil, making the marks solid and secure.
The temple knights are obviously very familiar with such work. The three knights etched from different directions and were close to the edge of completion in less than half of the sand.
Master Bloom took out the prepared materials from his own space ring, silver magic metal powder, bright red Warcraft blood, gray Warcraft bone powder... All kinds of precious materials began to fill the huge array as if they were free of charge.
When Bloom was busy arranging phalanx traps, Leon was not idle.
Eight hundred thunder beast warriors disguised and lurked around the magic trap, including the main personnel such as Aklan and Rock Hammer.
War camouflage is a special skill. Among the four clans in the glorious continent, the legions and soldiers of the Bemeng orcs are famous for their good at head-on and bloody battles. They inherit the spirit of Bemeng for thousands of years and advocate bravery, and rarely use alternative tactics such as ambush and harassment against the enemy.
Leon's training for the Thunder Beast Camp is not the case. Because the Thunder Beast Camp is very small, his requirements for the Thunder Beast Warriors not only to dare to fight hard, but also to let them learn guerrilla tactics such as latent night attacks and disturbances, based on building a strong soldier who can fight special battles.
The shiny metal armor was smeared with mud and grass leaves, and the carefully maintained Tomahawk epee was soaked in mud. Each soldier's face was coated with sludge made of vegetable juice. They lay down in the grass mud to hide their bodies.
Leon patrolled around to ensure that no soldier showed a flaw. The opponent was too powerful, and any negligence could cause fatal consequences, which made the ambush fail.
Even Aklan was ordered by him to take off his white robe and lurk with ordinary warriors.
On the other hand, Bloom's magic array trap is basically completed, and the final task is to place the magic core on the node of the magic array.
The previous spell material is used to transmit mana to connect the entire magic array, and the source of mana is the magic core on the node, so the higher-order magic array needs the more advanced magic core.
But when he placed the magic core of all the nodes, he stopped and hesitated at the core of the most important eye in the center.
Leon was stunned and hurried over and asked, "Master Bloom, what's the problem?"
"It's not a big problem..." Bloom frowned and said, "My double bundle of magic halo array is very demanding, especially the magic core required by the core of the magic array must reach level four or above."
"I have a four-level magic core on hand, but the quality is not very good, so I'm considering whether to add a few auxiliary magic cores to it. The problem is that this may be a problem."
The core of the array is the soul brain of the whole array. If the other parts of the array are partially damaged, it can still work, but if the core is damaged, the array will inevitably fail.
Therefore, the quality requirements of the core magic core or magic crystal must be high. For example, the double magic tower defense array and the holy land transmission array currently under construction in Sal City need to use extremely rare amethyst crystal.
"Can I use purple crystal?" Leon asked.
"Amethyst..." Bloom looked at Leon in surprise: "Of course, that's the best. The question is, do you have it?"
The next moment, the white-robed priest closed his mouth.
Because a purple crystal suddenly appeared in Leon's hand, emitting a charming and bright light.
Bloom was completely stunned. Looking at the amethyst crystal as if he had seen a ghost, his eyes were full of disbelief.
After a long time, he shook his head, as if it was difficult to accept the facts in front of him: "Where did you get it?"
"The black dragon python stole it and almost died because of it." Leon smiled and explained lightly. He
"Since you have got the purple crystal, why do you have to take the risk to kill the black dragon python?"
"There are many reasons..." Leon sighed: "This is my promise to others, and the killing of this black dragon python also has many benefits for Salling. Whether I can succeed or not, I have to give it a try."
"What a waste!" Bloom looked sad: "My magic array is self-destructive. Although it can greatly improve its power with amethyst crystal, it can no longer be used after it is destroyed!"
"The stronger the power, the better. As long as the black dragon python can be destroyed with the least loss, a piece of purple crystal is nothing, and the lives of the soldiers are the most precious!" Leon did not hesitate to hand over the purple crystal to Bloom's hand: "Master Bloom, it's all up to you!"
Holding the amethyst crystal in his hand, Bloom's look at Leon was very complicated, and eventually it turned into understanding.
"Baron Leon, you are the most special warrior lord I have ever seen. I believe that Sal will become more and more powerful in your hands!"
Bloom didn't say anything more. He buried the million-dollar amethyst deep into the core of his eyes.
The huge magic array suddenly shines!
