Knights of the Wasteland Fortress

Chapter 138 Thunder Shield
With the joining of the trainees from the second echelon, the siege of the ghoul tide came to an end soon.

On the battlefield during World War I, there was a Lanchester equation, which means that when the killing efficiency of bullets is less than the charging speed of soldiers, as long as there are enough soldiers, even a brainless Long Live charge can forcibly tear Open the enemy's defenses.

Leng Dao and the others faced the same situation.

The strength of the ghouls is nothing to them, but when the number breaks through to a certain level, the speed of killing the ghouls may not be as fast as the ghouls gathering towards them, so the more they defend against the siege of the ghouls, The easier it is to be swallowed by the endless tide of corpses.

However, this situation changed after Jiatu and the others joined.

The killing efficiency of the exoskeleton may not be precise enough, but the booster plus the titanium alloy armor that is difficult for ordinary ghouls to break through is enough for them to act as heavy cavalry and break up the dense formation of ghouls.

In this way, on the battlefield where the number of enemies is sparse, the wolf warriors who are good at attack and guerrilla can launch a counterattack and clear the ghoul group in a more comfortable way.

The liberated tree wolf defense force, together with Jiatu's nearly 10 superhuman exoskeletons, took about [-] minutes to kill thousands of ghoul-like beasts.

And such a long battle time, even with the assistance of the exoskeleton, still exhausted Jiatu and the others——

After all, no matter how strong the exoskeleton is, the teenage children who use it are still trainees. Compared with other older explorers, there is still a gap in physical endurance and basic quality.

However, the warriors of the Timberwolves were similar to Jiatu and the others—

Still alive, tree wolf warriors over the age of 30 are almost as rare as giant pandas.

However, it is precisely because everyone is young that it is convenient to open up some things.

"Why are you here? Isn't the refuge not going to help us?"

During the cleaning phase of the battlefield, Leng Dao walked towards Jiatu.

The cold eyes were behind him, and it could be seen that they were all tired, but their spirits were still refreshed.

Although his mouth was full of complaints, Leng Dao immediately gave Jiatu a hug——

He hugged Jiatu's exoskeleton, took a step back, and looked a little emotional:
"Thank you, without you, we would have been dragged to death."

"The gathering of ghouls has slowed down. It should be that the ghouls wandering nearby have gathered."

Jiatu was a little humble, and then added:

"We plan to use 29 exoskeletons in exchange for the right to use your forest. Those of us are considered as a shareholding fee."

"The shareholding fee for a group of minors..."

Leng Dao obviously knew what he meant, and couldn't help grinning:
"The high-level executives of your refuge still have a good calculation."

"It's just life. As explorers, we cannot escape the fighting on these battlefields."

Jiatu put away the long knife in his hand and put it back into the knife slot on his back.

Jiatu's exoskeletons are all fully equipped.

In addition to a long knife for close combat, there is also a fighting dagger for defense. The number of electromagnetic bullets carried is 20 rounds, plus the total weight of the rifle is 48 kg, and there are four liters of magic oil. 50 rounds of [-]mm guided grenades.

The total weight of the battle exceeds 40 kilograms, but it is still only lightly loaded under the standards of the explorer's great expedition.

Because the real heavy-duty exoskeleton can use things like anti-aircraft machine guns or medium-caliber anti-tank guns.

It is really overkill to deal with enemies of the level of ghouls.

Just when Jiatu was thinking like this, he heard Zhiti's report from the squadron channel——

"Everyone be careful! There are unknown people approaching above the forest!"

After being equipped with an exoskeleton, Zhiti's etiquette is not enough to support more than 300 kilograms of armor to fly freely in the sky.

But exoskeletons also have exoskeleton solutions——

That's the rotorcraft.

Because it has a more complex data link support than the externally-equipped Horror Brain, in theory, as long as Jiatu and the others need it, each of them can control more than five unmanned wingmen to accompany them around.

Whether it is reconnaissance, suppression, electronic interference or even suicide blasting, it is a good helper for exoskeletons.

However, Jiatu and the others were not used to attack artificial intelligence, so they did not take out those one-off attack drones, but only carried reconnaissance rotor drones.

Compared with Zhiti's etiquette, the rotor drone can fly higher, and Zhiti has also been specially assigned to the drone control post because of his experience in reconnaissance and flying.

And while Jiatu and the others were cleaning up the ghouls, she had been keeping a close eye on the rotor drone in the sky.

Thanks to her vigilance, Jiatu and the others spotted the attacking imperial wizard about 10 minutes earlier.

"It's the opponent Captain Sun Simiao encountered before."

He Lengdao and their greetings have not yet ended, and they have to face the enemy from the empire together.

Fortunately, we both have experience in cooperation before, although the strength of both parties has become stronger——

But people are still those people.

So the trainees and the wolf warriors quickly formed a temporary command group——

The trainees are mainly the three team leaders Jiatu, Hualun and Yinxian, while Lengdao, according to the tradition of the tree wolf tribe, only has the warrior leader (himself) and the priest leader (the gray wolf clan leader) Two people.

"Bavante..."

Hearing Zhiti's report, Leng Dao nodded slightly.

Compared with trainees, the tree wolf tribe has dealt with the wizard nobles of the empire many times.

The strength of each other is already quite numerous——

"Outside of the magic net of the empire, they can't restore the engraving, but according to the heritage of the family, each of them can release at least a dozen engraving spells. They don't have the technology of the original magic liquid, and they can directly use the magic like you. For energy, as far as I know, there is only the door opener."

Leng Dao briefly introduced the situation of the two parties, then looked at Jiatu and asked:

"Are you sure you can deal with him?"

"Is it a crown-level imperial wizard..."

Jiatu hesitated.

The "Grand Rank" looks the same as the "Juvenile Master Rank", both of which belong to the level above the "Silver Rank".

But according to Sun Simiao, there is a world of difference.

Under the right conditions, a crown-level wizard can easily kill more than ten Juggernaut-level fighters.

Similarly, in the same situation, a crown-level wizard knight can also easily do it.

Because the Juggernaut level is the "peak of mortals", the highest level that can be reached by the limit of human beings.

The special feature of "Grand Rank" is that it means "beginning to surpass ordinary people".

In Jiatu's understanding, the so-called crown-level wizards are like trainees equipped with exoskeletons, although they are still mortals—

However, the equipment gap between the two sides has been widened to the point where it cannot be compared.

And the inheritance magic seal of the wizard nobles is such a bug that can be called an exoskeleton.

Instant, no need to sing, if the wizard's own mental strength can support it, it can be fired more than ten times in a row——

In terms of explosive power, even Sun Simiao, the leader of the third team after Wu Yao, did not dare to touch the tiger's whiskers lightly.

Jiatu recalled all the knowledge about crown-level wizards in his mind, and nodded:

"He is obviously coming towards us. He can't hide, so he can only fight."

.

For the comparison between the exoskeleton and the inherited witch seal, Jiatu is quite confident.

Because it is not that the previous exploration team did not have conflicts with Sir Bavant.

And ordinary explorers equipped with exoskeletons are enough to play a role in the battle with the imperial wizards. The strength gap between the two sides is less than one to ten.

No matter how you think about it, it should be their advantage.

But it turns out that Jiatu and the others thought too simply of the wizards of the empire——

As lifelong knights of the Imperial Society, Bavant and Sir Cavendish are no weaker than Baron Nordwald in terms of strength.

Even because they have been studying the forefront of the theory of demons and spirit circuits in the society, in terms of actual combat effectiveness, they may even surpass the true love mage Lauu of the same level——

After all, there is a specialization in the art industry, and it is also very applicable in the field of witchcraft.

"Come out, I have found you."

When it was about two or three hundred meters away from the Timberwolves' troops, the humanoid lightning that had been moving at high speed in the forest suddenly stopped.

Compared with Jiatu who saw Bavante before, he became stronger, his whole body was filled with lightning, even his eyes and eyebrows were filled with blue lightning——

Like a Magneto.

Facing Bavante like this, Jiatu immediately realized that the opponent might be the most difficult enemy of the exoskeleton force.

But perhaps because of his eagerness for revenge, he went out alone, without any other enemies of the empire behind him.

After confirming this through Zhiti, he gave the order without hesitation——

"Fire!"

Neither side is a knight, and there is no need to exchange names before the battle.

In addition, ambushes are part of the battle—

Almost as soon as he gave the order, the armor-piercing projectiles fired from the five 35mm anti-material sniper rifles were fired instantly, hitting the protective shield on the Lightning Wizard——

One of the bullets was shot by Tajima, the precision shooter of the first group.

However, the anti-materiel sniper bullet, which is powerful enough to shoot through a 10mm thick concrete wall or a 5mm thick armored vehicle, bypassed Bavante a second before hitting him.

"Is it really Loren's magnetic force offset..."

Jiatu once heard Warren and the others talk about the scene of fighting Bavante——

Just like at that time, when the bullet made of metal hit Bavante, it bent along the electromagnetic shield outside his body——

This is not even magic, but a phenomenon that can be explained by science.

And the "magic" is not Bavante's electromagnetic shield, but him——

Seeing Jiatu and the others launch an attack, Bavante lifted up his sleeves without hesitation, revealing the witch mark——

There are more than a dozen engravings densely packed like lightning!

As a learned wizard, Bavante's family background is not that rich.

So he is not like Baron Nordwald, who even has three kinds of engravings available for the wizard knights under his command.

As a commoner wizard who grew up from a merchant family, he can use, and only use, lightning!

The imperial wizard nicknamed Electric Dragon used up three witchcraft engravings in one breath, and powerful magic energy gushed out from his elven circuit in one breath.

Then it converged into an incomparably dazzling plasma light ball in his hands——

"George... This is the artificial circuit that father prepared for you... Since you are no longer in this world, allow me to use it to destroy the enemies who killed you!"

Bavante's expression was abnormally frenzied, and the plasma ball created by destroying the entire artificial circuit turned into a huge net, sweeping across the entire forest in an instant.

The materialized plasma turned into an arc knife and swept across the forest.

In the next second, large tracts of forest fell to the ground under the impact of the plasma knife!

Countless canopy pavilions in the forest fell, and without Jiatu's order, the trainees in charge of melee combat had already rushed up——

Even their exoskeleton, like Jiatu's exoskeleton, issued a false alarm sound under the strong electromagnetic shock!
"Zhiti... take me to the sky!"

Seeing the trainees' attack work—mainly to get Bavante's attention.

Jiato beckoned to the girl.

As planned, the two sides hugged each other through the exoskeleton.

"I didn't expect my first intimate contact to be in such a situation..."

Jiatu couldn't see Zhiti's appearance, so he could only feel the tension and pretended ease in the girl's tone through the black camera hole of the exoskeleton——

"Are you sure your plan will be successful?"

Zhiti's knowledge of science is not very good, so for Jiatu's plan, they will only feel reckless.

But Cato was sure——

"After all, it has been approved by Sun Simiao and Hua Lun... just trust us."

"……it is good."

Zhiti was silent for a while, but still carried Jiatu and flew up.

The total weight of the two exoskeletons has exceeded [-] kilograms, which is equivalent to a tall racehorse.

But Zhiti maximized her gift ability——

At the same time, the skirt armor injectors of the two exoskeletons will also exert their maximum output——

With the help of a pair of white wings and four blue propellers, Jiatu and the others slowly lifted into the sky.

Jiatu saw through the data link of other people in the team that Bavante's attention was always on the other trainees who besieged him, and he didn't notice the real death from the sky at all!
"Reaper...falls from the sky..."

When flying to a distance of more than 300 meters above Bavante, Zhiti, who had already used up a whole liter of Mohuang stock solution, let go of her hands and let Jiatu fall downward.

And Jiatu used the jet propulsion port of the exoskeleton to adjust his landing posture——

From his vantage point, Bavante's actions can be clearly seen.

All metal weapons have no effect on Bavante's electromagnetic shield, and the insulator will also be scorched by high-voltage lightning.

So Bavante was not afraid of the trainee's bullets, and the trainee couldn't rush up to fight him.

Fortunately, people like Wei Wei and An Jie still have their own etiquette.

Warren used the explosion to cover them, and then fired fire and breath at Bavante—

These pure energy attacks are finally no longer subject to the influence of high-voltage currents, and can pose a threat to Bavante.

But in Bavante's view, the counterattack of these bugs is not to be feared at all——

Because his electromagnetic shield has a superconducting loop caused by witchcraft, it only needs a small amount of energy, and it can last for more than a whole day!
As long as he avoids those dangerous fireballs, the result of continuous consumption will definitely end in his victory!
　I feel that the writing of spell warfare is not very good, but I have no time to study this topic recently, and I will see how others deal with it later
