wandering fairy

There is an "empty" area in the sky not far from King Mansicott's camp, but there is turbulent airflow disturbance and a smell of perfume, as if some large transparent object is circling and flying.

Those were two venomous wyverns with an "invisibility barrier" and the masters on their backs - Sujata and Spencer.The two of them were riding triumphantly on the back of the flying dragon, using secret vision to determine each other's position.At the same time, he observed the people on the ground who were the size of small bugs.

"I have already set the effects of the eagle eye and clairvoyant effects after telescopic expansion to King Mansicott's side." Sujata said against the wind in the clouds: "Look at what pre-war mobilization he will do again." .”

Hawkeye and clairvoyance do not make your vision and hearing farther, but set a spell energy field to a distant location, and people observe things through this energy field.It is as if you are standing in that place and observing the surroundings.

Now Sujata felt that he was "standing by the king's side" and watched him deliver his pre-war speech with enthusiasm:

Do you remember those glory?You once fought off murderous dwarves in the snow and ice!

Do you remember those prides?You once resisted the cannibal wolf man by eating wild vegetables and leather armor!

Do you remember those glory?You used your own feet and straw sandals to hunt down the dishonest dog-headed lizardmen!

Now, the arrogant Escobar Kingdom wants to monopolize the rich crystal mine, which originally belonged to our Mansicott Kingdom!They are ignorant fools who want to steal from us and the vast wealth of our kingdom.Can we say yes?

"No!" Sujata heard the soldiers "around" shout: "Defeat the fools of Escobar! Capture our wealth! Share our spoils!"

They kept yelling, raised big and small weapons, magic wands, and staffs with high confidence, shouted with flushed faces, and walked to the plain area of ​​the battle in neat steps.

"Ah~~~" Sujata yawned lazily, and shouted to Spencer: "Why do these guys say the same thing? Every time they talk about glory, pride, glory Chattering and not playing? And then pulling out those useless dog-headed lizardmen and jackals to boost their morale? I guess the King Escobar on the opposite side said the same thing. It’s all boring!"

Spencer laughed and said, "If they don't say that, what can they say? Could it be that they said to the soldiers: Hey, you fight hard, and I will pay for your disability and resettlement expenses. Humph, don't mention it, the income from the crystal mine is still It’s not enough for the king and the nobles to distribute. Who cares about these ordinary hard-working soldiers? I think no matter which side wins this time, the king and the nobles will have to quarrel over how to distribute the income of the crystal mine.”

"They don't have this chance." Sujata said with a smile: "The winners this time are our teacher and the red dragon. Hey~~ It's still a little late for the teacher to do this kind of thing, otherwise the two of us would have already Then I got rich. Counting the money every day until my hands cramp, why are you riding around on a deadly flying dragon?"

Several people from Dong Hezi were still crowded outside the city with a large group of caravans.

"Why didn't they let us in?" Dong Hezi asked, "It would be bad if the previous battle affected us."

The boss lay on the grass carpet, staring blankly at the sky and responded: "The ones inside are all big caravans. They always get priority protection. Small caravans like us can only beg outside. Gods bless you." After speaking, he turned over in a dull mood and went to take a nap.All he wanted to do was to escape this troubled reality.

Dong Hezi looked around at the crowded caravans, and found that they were indeed small and medium caravans.Their eyes are either anxious or helpless, or numb or angry.But without exception, all mercenaries are preparing for the battle.

The same is true for Mackenzie here.He was ordering his men to put on wearable armor, sharpen their weapons, and stretch their muscles and bones to prepare for battle.Even the mage was cleaning up his spell equipment, and took out some strange-smelling things from his pockets to prepare some arcane spells.

Dong Hezi leaned over and asked MacKenzie, "Will the armies of those two countries fight with each other and rob us?"

McKenzie was more polite to the "priest": "Of course, this kind of thing happens often. You have encountered many of them before. Please prepare a few more healing spells this time, because the casualties caused by fighting with the regular army It will be bigger. Oh, by the way, you should give priority to treating our wounded during the battle. Other teams have their priests and paladins, we must save our own lives first."

Dong Hezi nodded. He had done a lot of things like this when he was a general before.For these unprotected business travelers, the result is the same whether they encounter victorious soldiers or defeated soldiers.He suddenly remembered something, and asked again: "Then why don't everyone unite to resist the attackers? If you disperse the battle like this, you will be defeated individually."

"It's difficult." McKenzie said with emotion: "Everyone understands this, but if we really want to fight together, then someone must take the lead and be cannon fodder. Is that mercenary willing to go? And who will be responsible for the compensation after death? The original bosses of the mercenaries will not take this responsibility. These small and medium-sized bosses are all budget-conscious masters, and it takes a long time for others to grab him for a copper coin, not to mention that it is a matter of life and death, and the cost is staggering? You see, life, money, etc. How can the most important matters be coordinated and satisfied in a short while. It takes ten days and a half months for major countries to coordinate with each other, let alone these small caravans that are used to being loose?"

He pointed around again and said: "Look, the teams here are so mixed. The small teams are afraid of being sold out after joining the group, while the big teams are not convinced by each other. Everyone wants to be the leader. The opponent would have finished earlier. If they could unite, the green goblins would have dominated the world long ago. Even if a miracle happened, everyone agreed to unite. These mercenaries have inconsistent weapons, different training states, and different mentalities. How can it be dispatched and fought like a real army? As long as there is a lot of pressure, it will still collapse."

He smiled again and said: "So, knowing that it is a dead end, but everyone has to go on. It depends on who can survive to the end. We have experienced this kind of thing a lot, no matter what others say. In this way, it is the smartest to keep your own life. But then again, maybe those armies will not come to rob us. Who can say for sure about this kind of thing? It depends on whether the gods will protect us or not."

Dong Hezi nodded, didn't this kind of thing happen in the Warring States Period?Everyone knows that the Qin State can be destroyed by combining a force, but they have their own ghosts and fall apart, and the last one is destroyed by the Qin State.Collective IQ really has no lower limit!

They chatted for a few more words, and suddenly heard an excited voice from a distance: "It's fighting! They're fighting!"

Dong Hezi immediately wanted to see how the war in this world was going on, so he chanted a spell to use a third-level spell "gasification form".In an instant, his body became like a dark blue dense cloud, which slowly flew towards the distant battle point without dispersing.

Behind him, several mages from the caravan hesitated for a moment, and followed him by using the flying technique.Go far to join in the fun.

Spencer rode on the back of the flying dragon and shouted excitedly: "It's a confrontation! It's a confrontation! The vanguard has already collided together. Strange, why didn't they use the magic equipment they bought before the confrontation? I haven't seen it until now." The mage troops from both sides are on the stage."

"That's because human life is not as valuable as those magic instruments." Sujata said patiently: "Haven't you heard of it? People in these poor valleys say: To have a child is to add more bran to the bread. Even if you stack twenty carts of that thing, you can’t buy a scroll of powerful and long-distance blasting fireballs. Naturally, we first use human life to consume the opponent’s vitality, and then use mage troops to bombard the enemy intensively from the air. But this time it will be a big scene Look, the mage troops on both sides have brought a lot of magic equipment. I don’t know what the meeting will look like. Maybe another batch of mages will die.” Speaking of this, the tone was even emotional and intolerable.Probably because I am also a mage, I can't help but feel a little bit sad.

"Whatever." Spencer was still excitedly staring at the battle situation below: "Look, look. It's quite organized. The dispatching of each team is quick, and the cooperation between each other is also good. Alas I used to think that these small countries fought in gangs.”

Sujata laughed and said, "How is that possible? These poor countries often fight against those vulgar dwarves. They have few mages and mage equipment, so they will naturally develop stronger melee capabilities. They are all soldiers. Otherwise, they would have been captured by the dwarves and used as slaves and experimental subjects of divine arts."

Spencer sneered and said, "What's the use of melee combat? A group of mage flying troops, use the range-enhancing spell to deal with them casually! If you encounter the birdmen from the Three Towers Society, you will be bombarded without even seeing them." Scum."

At this time, Dong Hezi, who had turned into a blue cloud, was carefully observing his body.

This is the first time he has used this spell after practicing Lei Gongzhuan.There was no special feeling when I used it before, but this time it is different.When the nature of his body became like a cloud, his real power faintly and automatically interacted with the power of heaven and earth!Following this, the effect of the Thunder God Seal was increased by several percent, while the consumption was reduced by several percent.As long as it is running for a while, a large number of electric sparks will burst into the entire blue cloud, and the power of thunder and lightning will faintly sound in the cloud, like a ferocious tiger hiding in the forest and ready to kill its prey at any time.Dong Hezi secretly estimated that in this state, only [-]% of the original real power is needed to form a complete electric whip or a chain of lightning with supernatural power.

What's even better is that this natural mutual induction even arouses the change of the primordial spirit, prompting the whole body's true power to slowly circulate!It is like a natural teacher personally teaching how to mobilize the power of thunder and lightning between heaven and earth through the soul of the students.This is something unimaginable on earth!

On the earth, even with the guidance of a master, it is even more difficult to cultivate the real thunder method.It's not because the teacher keeps secrets and doesn't teach it, but when performing exercises, there are some things that cannot be described and taught in words.If you don't understand these places, you will stagnate at least, or misinterpret the meaning of the fairy scriptures, go astray or even go crazy!

For this reason, countless ancestors have tried all kinds of methods, or using herbs to assist the practice, or drawing lessons from the inner alchemy method to guide the practice, or making people strictly protect the Dharma at various points in the practice to ensure that they will not lose, or using the power of ghosts and gods to guide them, even Some people learn from the Buddhist method of breaking the five aggregates to practice thunder.All of these cannot completely prevent errors.That's like now, the universe will teach you the thunder method by itself!

As the saying goes, qi is not refined, but inborn.It's just that ordinary people are blinded by the changes of the seven emotions and six desires, five aggregates and five elements, and cannot grasp the Qi.Therefore, pearls are hidden in dry clams, and precious jades are buried in hard stones.Naturally, it is impossible to change supernatural powers and achieve immortality.Therefore, the ancestors set up various methods to break the cover of the seven emotions and six desires, the five aggregates and the five elements, so that the functions of qi will naturally appear.

The same is true for Lei Fa as a type of qi refining.Whether it is Fubi, Dan Dao, Cunshen or other methods, it is necessary to break the confusion of the five aggregates and five elements, so that the body and mind can sense the thunderous power generated by the intersection of yin and yang between heaven and earth.The problem is that practitioners have to sink their body and mind very deeply in order to feel that sense.And it may not be right!One is not easy to fall into the phantom phantom!

But now, as long as the mind is calm and energetic, there will be obvious induction, and there are actual effects to verify. Practicing Lei Fa again will not only get twice the result with half the effort?It's a triple jump.

Dong Hezi was very happy in his heart, and with a little force, the changing blue cloud suddenly split a purple-red thunderbolt, smashing a rock as big as a horse on the ground with a "bang".

He laughed heartily, and slowly sensed the power of thunder.Slowly fly to the battlefield where the sound of killing is deafening.

A large open plain appeared in front of my eyes. Looking down from the sky, those human beings looked like ants gathering to fight each other, gathering in a few dark groups to kill each other.But if you look closely, you will find that there is a big gap between fighting with the earth's cold weapons.

First of all, there is no large-scale battle formation.Neither the Macedonian-style large-scale assault phalanx nor the Spanish-style phalanx combining various arms.All the soldiers are twenty or thirty gathered into a combat group to fight, and this combat group becomes round, square, or long according to needs.

Take a closer look at each combat group has a complete configuration of arms, including crossbowmen in the distance, spearmen or halberds in the middle, and sword and shield soldiers in the near.Some teams continued to exude a magical atmosphere, as if the arcane pioneers like Mackenzie were casting spells to assist their teammates.What's more interesting is that although the number of these groups is small, the cooperation between each group is very good, and the separation and closing are very fast, as if they can communicate with each other.

If you think about it carefully, you will understand, isn't there low-level spells such as "Wind News, Short Message" and so on?You can also store more than a dozen in the magic wand at a time, and of course they can be flexibly connected and coordinated with each other, which overcomes the shortcoming that small combat groups cannot cooperate with each other in combat.

This is just like the war on earth. In the era of less developed communication, the more people prefer to concentrate their operations, the bigger the army will be.The more developed the communication, the more mobile and divided operations are preferred.In the 21st century, teams are even encouraged to fight in groups.There are even small combat units that can be combined and split at will, and these combat units can be recombined into a large combat cluster when needed.

There is no other reason. The advantage of small group tactics is that it is easy to find the weak link of the enemy's formation, but it is not easy to call teammates to carry out concentrated strikes and key breakthroughs.Even their own interconnection and coordinated operations are difficult, and it is easy to get lost in the ever-changing battlefield and be defeated by large-scale enemies one by one.

But when the communication capability is sufficient, small combat groups can overcome this weakness and form very flexible tactics.Eat those enemies that seem to be huge, but actually have the ability to change.

Each small fighting group is like a tenacious ant, mixing with the enemy and fighting each other.The bright red corpses were scattered all over the place.

Spencer shouted in surprise: "Look! The mage troops from both sides are flying out! The show is about to begin. Hahaha, I really want to know what expressions they have when they meet, hahahaha"

Sujata looked down and took a closer look, and sure enough, he saw more than 20 mages gathered in a group and flew out from the rear of King Mansicott's formation, and flew towards the stagnant battle area in front of them.

"It looks like they used the scrolls of mass flight and scrolls of mass acceleration that we sold to them." Sujata said, "Hey, they don't seem to be official mages, but some apprentices who only know first- and second-order arcane arts."

"Oh? Then they are too courageous?" Spencer said in amazement: "Go directly to the battlefield with the scroll bought from us? Hmph, it will be a good show if someone dispels the magic. When the time comes to fall on the battlefield, it will be useless to cry for father and mother!"

"Hey~~ How can such a poor country cultivate real mages? The expensive tuition fees may not even be affordable by these kings. Even if an official mage is occasionally produced, how can he stay in such a poor place? Didn’t you sharpen your head and go to the big city? No matter how bad it is, you have to sneak into an adventure team and go out for luck.” Sujata turned back and said: “And it shouldn’t be dispelled by someone. They bought so many long-range bursts Fireballs, ice storms, and chain lightning should be used to kill the opponent's ground troops from a long distance. Even if the arcane soldiers on the ground have tools to dispel magic, they can't reach the range."

"Hahahaha." Spencer suddenly laughed and said, "That's really the case. You see, the mages of Mansicott are bombing the opponent's follow-up troops."

Sujata stretched his neck to have a look, and saw the mages of the Mansicott Kingdom floating a little behind the melee between the two armies, they took out the purchased magic wands and scrolls and began to cast spells a little slowly.Bursts of colorful magical auras flickered non-stop from there, and bursting fireballs and chain lightnings poured out continuously like a torrential rain, drawing a long arc and falling straight to the enemy's position in the distance.Waves of ice storms also suddenly rose from the enemy's position, making a violent whistling sound.

At this time, another advantage of small combat groups is reflected: because they are widely spread out, they can quickly avoid those explosive fireballs and ice storms with amazing momentum.All these powerful spells bombarded the uninhabited open space, shaking up the shocking dust two or three stories high.If it was a large-scale battle formation, they would have been blasted to death in pieces like felled wheat.

The effect of chain lightning is much better, it can wipe out several people in a fighting group with one shot.So those elementary mages quickly switched to the serial lightning scroll.After Siri clattered and sang, lightning bolts formed a gorgeous waterfall of electric storms, leaping and falling into the enemy's troops.

The dazzling electric lights are like a chaotic tide bursting a bank, criss-crossing and hurting people in all directions.The screams and groans sounded like waves one after another.

Spencer in the sky shouted: "This is gorgeous enough. I haven't seen this kind of scene for a long time. It would be even more spectacular if I sold them the firewall back then. Look! The mage troops of the Kingdom of Escobar also flew We're on the front line. Hey, there are also some low-level mages. Oh, it's going to be confrontational again, it's really boring."

Sugata took a closer look, and sure enough, he saw that the two mage troops were flying near the front line and saw each other.
