Release that Witch - Chapter 1164

[Chapter 1138 Intercept Strategy]

Graycastle, Neverwinter.

Roland received Iron Ax, the commander-in-chief of the First Army, and Edith Kant, the chief of the general staff, who came to return.

“How is it? How does it feel to ride the Seagull for the first time?” He looked at the two subordinates with interest.

“Return, return to Your Majesty, although it flies very fast, for me… it may be too exciting.” A rare look of heart palpitation appeared on Iron Axe’s face, “I didn’t feel it when I watched it from the sidelines before. , but when I sat in it myself, I realized that it was really shaking, especially when I went up and down, I always felt that the bottom of the buttocks was empty, and I didn’t have any bottom in my heart.” He stood up and saluted, gritted his teeth and said loudly , “Of course, I will try my best to overcome this, please rest assured Your Majesty!”

It turns out… Does this Mojin warrior who has experienced many battles have a slight fear of heights?

Roland couldn’t help raising his eyebrows, “How do you plan to overcome it?”

“When the war is over, I will watch the phantom as long as I have time until I get used to it!”

It’s really Shamin’s style.

He twitched his mouth and turned to Edith, “What about you?”

Pearl of the Northland licked her lips, and after a while, she uttered a word, “It’s great.”

And then… gone?

Roland waited for a long time without waiting for the next step. He looked at the other party suspiciously, but found that her cheeks were slightly red, and her eyes were shining with an indescribable color.

Well, he sighed, his subordinates are somewhat different from ordinary people in some respects.

He originally thought that he would see the shocked or emotional expressions of the two, and then praise him for creating such an extraordinary thing, but now it seems that he is thinking too much.

“Since you are back, let’s go to the meeting room now.” Roland stood up, “It’s time to make the final preparations for this war.”

…

After nearly six months of construction and advancement, the first railway line on the Fertile Plain is less than 60 kilometers away from the ruins of Taquila.

When the construction of Tower No. 10 site is completed, the First Army will be able to launch a direct attack on the enemies entrenched here.

The manpower and materials invested in the Torch Project far exceed any military operation in the past four years. More than 80% of the steel smelted in the kiln area has been turned into rails. Obelisk possible.

Once the Fertile Plain is covered by red mist, it means that the devil can cross the Impassable Mountains and invade the interior at any time. Not only will the battle line be greatly lengthened, but the First Army will also face enemies that are no longer limited by distance. For humans who are at a disadvantage in numbers , which is by no means an ideal start.

On the contrary, if Taquila can be captured first, the devil can only choose the sacred stone veins of the other two holy cities to grow obelisks, and Falling Star City and Anlieta are closer to the northern end of the plain. Law directly threatens the Four Kingdoms.

In this way, not to mention the victory of the divine will, at least another four hundred years can be bought for mankind.

As for Graycastle, which has entered the industrial age, how far it can develop in four hundred years, and how many times it can grow in four hundred years for humans who are not trapped by food, the answer is self-evident.

Therefore, the Guangwo Plain is not only a strategic buffer zone, but also a spare land for future development.

Mortals will eventually defeat the devil.

But it does not mean that their generation can see that day coming.

This is also the deeper reason why Roland did not tell everyone.

Unfortunately, reality doesn’t always go as planned.

According to the original idea, as long as the demons entrenched in Taquila are eliminated, and then the ruins are converted into a fortress, it will be considered a success. If this is the goal, the current First Army is only one step away from complete victory.

However, the appearance of the demon slayer forced the plan to change—the power of the curse made all healing methods ineffective, so that even a small wound could cause death.

Lightning is okay, its self-healing ability is basically equal to the speed of infection, but Ye Zi is not so lucky.

According to Ember’s secret observations and reports, the condition of the leaves is deteriorating.

Even though she didn’t say anything, her complexion and spirit couldn’t hide from Ashes who was next to her.

Deterioration means that the rate of decay of the wound exceeds the healing limit, just like a little bit of spreading lesion, which seems to be harmless at first, but eventually wears down the whole body in the later stage.

Regardless of whether this process is one year or ten years, as the most important part of population expansion, this is an unacceptable loss.

A settlement must be made with the Demon Slayer in Taquila.

In the meeting room, witches and army representatives gathered together, and there was also a message from the third border city on the wall. There was only one thing everyone discussed, and that was how to ensure that the high-level devil with the power of curse was killed in the decisive battle.

“The first thing to explain is that according to the deduction of the staff department, when it is confirmed that the battle situation is irreversible, the probability of the demon slayer retreating is as high as 90%.” Edith was still the first to speak, “There is not much conclusive evidence for this conclusion , It is more about behavioral expectations, judging from the fact that the opponent still maintains a considerable distance from the position so far, it should be the diametrically opposed example of Cabra Darby.”

Elsa, who dealt with the devil the most, said,

“So we must take the initiative to intercept it on its retreat route.” Edith nodded, “Fortunately, we have a clear picture of the enemy’s whereabouts, and we have experienced similar things before.” She looked at Andrea Quinn, “If the demon slayer is unaware of this, ultra-long-range sniping is undoubtedly the safest and most secure choice.”

The latter stroked his hair gracefully.

“I have doubts.” Tilly said.

“Please speak, Your Highness.” Beidi Pearl stroked her chest.

“First, it is still unknown whether a single bullet can kill a demon slayer. What if it just wounds the opponent? We don’t have another chance. Second, if the opponent has already discovered this long-distance What should we do if there is an attacking weapon and we intentionally evade it when retreating? Judging from previous battles, this possibility not only exists, but it is not small-after all, the enemy’s understanding of firearms has almost exceeded our expectations. ”

“We have also considered these two issues,” Edith replied, “For the first point, the staff came to the conclusion that the warhead should be made of God’s Stone of Retaliation.”

“God stone bullet?”

“Yes, even if there is no fatal blow, the enemy will lose the ability to fly. Of course, I know that the smaller the sacred stone, the lower the hardness. A sacred stone cut to the level of an ordinary bullet can be smashed directly with a hammer. pressure, but the caliber of the weapon Miss Andrea uses is different, maybe you can try it.” She paused, “I also confirmed this point with Ms. Agatha, directly using the blood of magic The strength of the divine stone that comes out will be much higher – she came back this time with two bottles of fresh blood collected from the devil, and she should be conducting relevant experiments now.”

Elsa laughed,

Pearl of the North smiled back indifferently, “As for the second point…we need a reserve chaser to fill this loophole.”

“Currently only Lightning is faster than Demon Slayer,” Wendy said worriedly, “but she… can’t stop the enemy.”

“No,” she shook her head, “There is another thing that flies faster than the Demon Slayer—”

“Something?” Tilly seemed to realize something.

“That’s right, that’s the Seagull during the dive.” Edith said word by word.
