Otherworldly Skeleton

When Lu Yan hurried back to the south of the Baimu Forest, he saw the black ocean of skeletons stretching to the horizon. It was really a bit like Guzama Mountain back in the day, but Lu Yan knew that it was only because of the open terrain. In fact, the current scale was not as large as One hundredth of that day's bone hazama mountain.

An ape-shaped riding bone riding on the back of a huge elephant-shaped strong bone came to Lu Yan. The superimposition of the two huge skeletons made the top of the riding bone 8 meters above the ground. Compared with Lu Yan, who was less than 18 meters Yan stood in front of him like a tiny ant.

"Has Fenrir's troops ever come?" the ape-shaped knight asked arrogantly.

"There was a tortoise-shell strong bone ruled by Fenrir. After being killed by Lord Karen Val, his subordinates dispersed, and no skeletons from other forces were found." Lu Yan's words were half true, half false, he He didn't say anything about Deva, he could feel that Karen Val was deliberately hiding his strength.

The ape-shaped riding bone looked around the white wood forest from a height of 8 meters, confirmed that Lu Yan's report was correct, and then bowed his head and said: "Your mission is completed, but don't go back to the city yet, Mr. Bernardi has decided to personally He came here to supervise the construction of the city, whether to assign you a new task will have to wait for him to decide."

After finishing speaking, the ape-shaped bone rider turned around and left. There were four other bone riders who came with him. They were planning how to build a temporary stronghold to protect the soul gap and Baimu forest first.

The right to clean up the bone ants was also taken away, and the bone riders also shamelessly learned the ice pit cleaning method invented by Lu Yan. A hundred strong bones led their thousands of bone ants in the Baimu forest. Cleanup activities were carried out, wantonly absorbing the rotting souls of bone ants.

In addition, the corpses of the bone ants were collected, and Kerwin no longer had the right to collect formic acid. The army that arrived later would bring a large number of vendors and craftsmen, and these corpses would be disposed of by selling or directly refining them.

The only thing to be gratified about is that the knights recognized Kerwin's first private collection rights. After recovering from his injuries, Kerwin led his subordinates to leave the Baimu Forest, which may soon be a major battlefield. He will wait for the war to subside After that, he began to sell his collection rights, which would bring him at least three years of affluent life.

Lu Yan handed over all the formic acid to Ke Erwen, and entrusted him to sell his own bone card and send it to Ah Jiu in Heishui City. Ke Erwen naturally promised that he would never break his promise.Lu Yan smiled slightly, he couldn't leave at all, formic acid would probably be destroyed in the war if he stayed here, there was no other way if he didn't trust Ke Erwen, he had seen Ke Erwen's character before, although some merchants were cowardly , but it can still be regarded as trustworthy.

Besides, Lu Yan didn't pay too much attention to the bone card. It was a windfall, and the loss was nothing more than a smile. What he really had to face carefully was the huge battle that was about to take place near Baimulin.

The first conflict happened very quickly. In the southwest of the newborn soul gap, the two cavaliers of Fenrir and the cavalry of Zexis had the first encounter. Because the protagonist did not arrive, everyone It was just a symbolic collision, and after leaving 10,000+ broken skeletons, they returned to the temporary camp.

Lu Yan was not assigned to the battlefield. His good mission record made him eligible to stay behind. Lu Yan seized the time to find some newborn humanoid ashes from the vicinity of the soul gap, and then ordered these humanoid ashes to be placed on the corpse of the bone ant. Squat on the side, learn from Kerwin's "experience", and absorb the rotting souls left in the corpses of these bone ants.

In addition, he used the tens of thousands of calorie activity funds that Ke Erwen left him in exchange for high-purity soul-inducing water, and imitated the technique of Yugusi to process these human-shaped ashes, and finally promoted them to red bones in three days. bone.

Coupled with the fact that the red bones who reported the letter had come back one after another, Lu Yan finally gathered 100 red bones subordinates. He found a secluded corner and led these red bones to practice formation and coordination skills assiduously, striving to be the best in the world. A little usable soldier before the battlefield.

Anderina is the only alien under Lu Yan. Many movements are difficult for her, such as squatting down and attacking from under the shield. The bones of the bull-headed skull are relatively stiff. This movement made Anderina eat After a lot of trouble, the little girl could only contact her again and again, trying to match the rhythm of other humanoid red bones.

Lu Yan noticed Anderina's difficulties, so he often strengthened her guidance alone. The two often discussed spear skills all night long. Lu Yan was surprised to find that Anderina did not have bone skills... Although It is already at the level of red bones, but Andelina's entire skeleton is well-proportioned, without any protrusions or abnormalities. According to the records on the Baike Encyclopedia, this phenomenon is called "absence of bone skills".

What's missing is what's missing. Anyway, you don't need bone skills to use weapons. Lu Yan comforted the little girl like this, and Andelina just smiled shyly, and then practiced desperately under the moonlight holding the crescent gun.

In fact, if it is only used in the battle formation, there are not many requirements for the posture of the spear technique. The conical formation needs to be able to throw and stab, while the square formation is purely charging and stabbing. The plum cutting formation has an extra hook action to help the entire formation For sports, the Pisces array is for provocation, and what is needed is explosive power. The circular rotation array is a high-frequency fixed-point thrust, and there is also a requirement for instantaneous explosive power.

Andelina quickly mastered the essentials of the movements and gradually integrated into the team.

This comfortable training life lasted for two days, and Bernardi arrived.

"What do you think about how to keep this Baimu forest?" Bernardi held a bone riding meeting at the temporary camp south of Soul Gap. Since Lu Yan's upper-level strong bones and riding bones were not there, and because he was the discoverer of Baimu forest , so he was authorized to attend as a battle bone.

In order to facilitate discussions among the riders, Bernardi forbids the use of soul words that can only be communicated between superiors and subordinates, and orders everyone to use ordinary language functions, so that Lu Yan can also have a chance to really hear what the riders are saying.

"My lord, I suggest ambush the three rare soldiers near the soul gap. If Fenrir dares to send troops over, we can sneak attack them!"

"The army is so huge, and it's snowy. The ambush is too easy to expose. We should send more spies. When Fenrir's troops arrive, we will defeat them head-on!"

"It's not that easy to defeat him head-on. Fenrir has more generals than Lord Zexis, and his territory is short of white wood. Maybe he will send heavy troops. We should retreat and form a camp, using the soul gap as a natural danger. Defense."

... The discussion was very motivating, and Lu Yan found that these riders were quite intelligent, and the plans they came up with were quite satisfactory and somewhat feasible.

Bernardi didn't ride a mount. He wore a large area of ​​dark gold armor and paced in front of the skeletons. His aura was considered very mighty. Lu Yan saw a layer of light blue light covering Bernardi's body. He knew that the bone halo was working, but he didn't know what the effect of Bernardi's halo was.

After discussing for a long time, the final plan was not to take the initiative to attack and Yuuki to retreat, but most of the bone riders preferred the latter, and Yuuki retreated.

"Little thing, your name is... oh, Lu Yan." Bernardi suddenly saw Lu Yan in the corner, and asked with interest: "What do you think, what should we do?"

The environment is harsh and we are in a dangerous place of the Fourth World War. Of course, the best way is to hide the main force, and then send troops to collect the firewood. Since the main force is hidden, the enemy will not dare to attack. They should be able to collect enough firewood and transport it back to Heishui City. If the enemy Take the risk of attacking, the loggers in the Baimu forest can turn workers into soldiers, cooperate with the hidden main force to attack the enemy back and forth, and if necessary, they can also light the Baimu forest to destroy the enemy's army. This is the most ruthless method.

But Lu Yan would not say that, Bernardi has brought a large number of human slaves here, his thoughts are self-evident, and besides, wouldn’t the burning of the Baimu Forest disregard the hundreds of millions of fellow skeletons in Heishui City? Being scolded, Lu Yan could only find a way to help Bernardi perfect the fortification strategy, so as not to be defeated and killed by the eyeing enemies.

"My lord, then I will dare to say a few words." Lu Yan stood up and said to Bernardi respectfully: "Snow in September is a rare natural disaster on the Skull Continent. I am afraid that all major forces are not prepared enough. Even Fen Rui Er sent them on horseback, and the materials piled up are extremely limited, so we can't fight for a long time, of course we have to use defense instead of attack to exhaust their resources and wear down their vigor."

Bernardi nodded again and again. He didn't want to fight. After he was promoted to general, he preferred defensive and counterattack tactics. He would build a bunch of fortifications wherever he went, and use defense instead of offense.

The other riders also nodded one after another, and their gazes towards Lu Yan changed slightly.

Lu Yan paused for a moment and continued: "In severe cold weather, the bones of the skeletons will become more fragile, and they will easily break if there is a slight collision. If there is a large-scale fierce battle, it will be a great loss to both parties. If we can build the city in time, the enemy will know that they will have to pay a huge price to win, and they will probably retreat, so it is possible to retreat without fighting."

"Well said, it's good to retreat the enemy without fighting." Bernardi asked happily: "Then tell me, where and how will this city be built?"

"My lord, I have checked the terrain many times these days. There is a soul gap in the west, a lake in the north and a south, and a highland in the east. I think it may not be enough to build it on the scale of a fourth-level city. The size of a super city is built, and the end of the city wall is the soul gap in the west, the lakes in the north and south, and the highland in the east, so that the entire city is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and even if the enemy comes, they will be deterred." Lu Yan. This plan has long been measured, so it is not cool to say.

"A third-level city?" Bernardi lowered his head and paced back and forth. The width of a third-level city is generally no less than 10 kilometers. This is not a small challenge for him, but it is indeed as Lu Yan said. This scale can ensure that there are dangers on all sides, and most of the Baimu forest will be wrapped in it.

Some of the riders were amazed, some sneered, but Lu Yan was unmoved. Anyway, he just proposed the most suitable plan for defending the city. As for whether it can be done, it is Bernardi's business.

"But we don't have enough soldiers, and I'm afraid the defense of the third-tier city can't handle it." Bernardi thought for a long time, and raised a problem.

How to defend more with less, Lu Yan has already considered this issue, Lu Yan smiled slightly: "My lord, the city is mainly for deterrence. After the city is built, it is very difficult for anyone to be stupid enough to attack the city in winter, so my lord It only needs to make [-] large cloaks, and wrap [-] war bones so that the enemy can't see whether they have bone souls, which is equivalent to disguising them as strong bones, so that the city's defense force will naturally 'double'. Dare to easily attack the city."

"Wearing a cloak on the battle bones is an insult to the dignity of the strong bones!" Immediately, several cavaliers objected. They had just been promoted from the strong bones, and their memories of that level were still fresh.

Lu Yan didn't bother to pay attention, just waiting for Bernardi to make a decision.

"This will be decided, and the city will start to be built. The scale is..." After thinking for a long time, Bernardi raised his sharp triangular skull, and looked around Lu Yan and all the knights majestically: "A third-level city!"
