Chapter 93 Chapter 93 The Weapon Master's Strategy

Acebeth is dead, he doesn't know himself Why lose.

Invisibility is not invincible, it has many solutions, Dagon uses only one of them. A weapon master must learn to face all kinds of unfavorable situations. Life is precious, and you can't die when you encounter a disadvantage, right? Vision is the most important source of information in combat, that's right, but losing the intelligence provided by vision can be made up for in other ways.

Dagon chooses to use terrain to limit the enemy's options. If the enemy has only one choice, then there is no need to answer the question of where the enemy came from, just "when". At first, Dagon went around the top of the slope without turning back, just mobilizing the enemy. In fact, he was the most vulnerable at this time. If Acebeth has ranged weapons like crossbows, slingshots, or throwing knives, Dagon will be at an extreme disadvantage.

The kind of zigzag maneuvering at a fixed rhythm is actually not much different from always moving in a straight line. The key to maneuvering is to prevent the opponent from grasping the rhythm. Dagon carefully selected the movement speed and frequency of movements, making it difficult for Acebeth to start in the continuous change. Aisbeth couldn't wait in advance, and could only follow from behind or from the side; he also didn't dare to run, that would have too much influence and would increase the possibility of exposure.

Dagon doesn't wear armor, nor does Acebeth. If two people slashed horizontally at the same time, relying on the greater threat range of the headhunting axe, it must be Esbeth who died. Therefore, Aisbeth can only choose to seize an opportunity to strike a fatal blow, and any stalemate and fight will automatically fall into the disadvantage. Dagon knew exactly what the best option for Esbeth was, and he would have done the same in Esbeth's place. So, Dagon first led him down a section of the road, and then suddenly slid down the hill.

He slipped on purpose and sold the weak spot on purpose. This weak spot seems to be saying, "What a chance! Come and stab me to death!"

How can dwarves slip so easily, even more how Dagon? He can keep his balance by covering his lower body with dirt, and he is the least likely to fall and slip. But everyone knows that tension can lead to mistakes, and this reason provides a good step for thoughts such as "being confused for a while and letting go of vigilance for a while". Icebeth had to catch up, even if he was just trying to keep a menacing distance.

During the descent, Dagon gathered Earth Element mana to move the soil under his feet, and secretly arranged several pits. This is the same as trapping a horse, but in addition to making people lose balance, it also has the effect of confirming the enemy's position.

Dagon waited for Acebeth to come, concentrated attention completely listening to the sound of a foot falling into a dimple, and then applied a sudden thrust. Although the front end of the headhunting axe is too heavy and the long handle is too hard, it cannot exert the most huge might of this move like a real big gun. However, any pointed long-handled weapon can apply the tricks of the sudden thrust, the only difference is that the amount of training to practice this move is more or less.

Using the terrain and changing the terrain to gain a momentary advantage, Dagon seized this momentary advantage, and Esbeth's stealth lost its tactical significance. His body was penetrated by three sharp weapons, especially the head-hunting axe. After Dagon activated the "hard" rune, he directly forked him to the ground, unable to fall down even if he wanted to. His heart had stopped beating completely, and there was no pressure in the blood vessels, so the blood from the wound would only tick and rip like rain from the sky.

A thunderstorm exploded overhead, a thunderstorm was coming. Dagon moved his fingers and wrists, finally getting rid of the spell effect of Acebeth. At this time, he still had a question, and that was whether this Esbeth was a man or a woman. Makeup should not have such a good effect, but if it is a deformed spell or Illusion Technique, then it should be lifted after Aisbeth's death?

Dagon decided to check it out, but before he could walk past, the sky started to drop thunder. The top of the hillside is the most vulnerable to lightning strikes, but there is still a headhunting axe on the edge of the hillside! Three metal weapons were inserted into a corpse, and the long-handled metal weapon was still grounded, so the priority target appeared.

Dagon only felt that the white light flashed, and he was blasted out and fell to the ground with a slap on his back. He felt paralyzed all over his body, his fingers and toes completely lost his intuition, and his ears were rumbling, and he didn't know whether the rumbling came from the thunder in the sky or the Hong bell in his head.

Acebeth's body was first electrolyzed with water, carbonized to a charred state, and then a gas explosion occurred and burned. Short broadswords and daggers fell from the corpse, and the hunting axe was still slanted on the ground under the action of the "hard" word rune, supporting the burning corpse. The rain from the sky could not douse the fire on the corpse for the time being. It was already vulnerable to lightning strikes and explosions, and the burning destroyed its final integrity. First the chopped shoulder, then the limbs and head, Acebeth quickly shattered into pieces, no matter what the TA was, it's hard to tell now.

The thunder flashed left and right, falling everywhere, and the rain was getting heavier and heavier. Dagon would have almost choked to death in the rain assaults the senses if he hadn't concentrated all his strength to turn sideways.

It took twenty minutes for Dagon to slowly get up and sit in the pouring rain, wiping his nose and ears, which had been bleeding before. He wasn't the target of the lightning strike - and thankfully he wasn't - but the aftermath of the lightning strike was enough for him. What's even more pitiful is the star helmet. The little bear lizard is still in a coma, and it is only attached to Dagon's beard by intuition, which is not washed away by the rain.

Put the bear lizard to your ear and listen to its breathing and heartbeat. "It's okay, quite powerful. There should be no problem." Dagon put the bear lizard in his pocket, wiped his face with his hands, and looked at the rain. The rain at this time is heavier than before, but the thunder and lightning are not so frequent, which is relatively safe. So he used both hands and feet, grabbed the dirt and grass, quickly climbed up the hill, grabbed two sacks, and rolled down again at the fastest speed.

Staying at the top of the slope is waiting for the thunder to strike, so Dagon won't make that mistake.

Under the heavy rain, Acebeth had turned off the fire, and there was almost no flesh left, leaving only a skeleton that was difficult to distinguish between genders. The velvet clothes were all burnt away, the obsidian dagger was broken into glass, but a slender snakeskin belt was intact, and it didn't look like an ordinary thing.

"This is the spills of war I deserve." Dagon picked up the belt and compared the length. It's a pity that Aisbeth's waist is relatively thin, so she can wear a belt, but Jiangu clansman is still relatively "round". The snakeskin belt didn't make a full circle, and it didn't make sense to tie it around hands and feet, so Dagon stuffed it into a burlap bag, waiting to find a buyer.

Putting the broadsword and dagger back together, Dagon disarmed the headaxe's rune and pulled it from the ground. The weapon was still warm, caused by lightning strikes, and the heavy rain failed to cool it down completely. In order to avoid becoming the next burnt corpse, Dagon didn't dare to stay at all, and went straight into an abandoned big house at the racecourse, so he dared to organize his things.

Take off your wet clothes, wring out the towel, and give it a good wipe. There is still a lot of baled grass in the house, which used to be fodder for horses, and has long been unfit to eat, but it can be used to make a fire. Flint and iron pieces can be used to make fire star after a little drying, which is a reliable tool. In the firelight, Dagon began to feel warm.

Starhelm woke up, licked his eyes with his tongue, and climbed out of his pocket to dry himself by the fire. Dagon took out the jerky from his backpack and cut it into small pieces with a knife. This was the supper for the two of them. It is still raining outside, he will definitely fight in the rain tonight, and some preparations must be made. The weight of the armor will increase, so try to reduce the burden on your body as much as possible to counteract its impact on mobility.

The summer rain may be cool, but never cold. Dagon only needs to wear the thinnest shirt, separate the armor and the skin, and avoid friction and bleeding. The armored shirt made of spliced armor and multiple layers of leather can provide decent protection. The knee pads and elbow pads are like small round shields, and a few iron rods are used instead of arcs to connect the knee elbows and ankle wrists. Arms, but at least some protection against slashing and smashing injuries.

Be sure to bring your weapon, this time you can hang the iron ball for the slingshot on the right side of the belt. The weapon hook specially prepared for the first hunting axe is on the left side, which can be hooked to the polearm when using the slingshot, thus freeing both hands. Two small throwing axes for throwing were hung close to the thighs, the armour belt outside the armored shirt was tied to a dagger with a slanted handle on the chest, and four throwing knives were placed behind the shoulders.

The neck guard and helmet are matching, the key is the matching and not expensive. The neck guard can prevent the throat from being cut to a certain extent. It also stands up and can withstand the helmet and prevent it from falling sharply. This acts as a support when the hammer hits the helmet, transferring part of the impact to the shoulders rather than the skull and cervical spine. It doesn't eliminate the lethal threat from a blunt object hit the head, but it gives a good chance of life.

Wear a rain hat on the outside of the helmet, fastened with a rope, which is good for vision. Because you need to wear armed gloves on your hands, there are metal armor pieces to prevent cutting, and with leather, it is not easy to wipe the rain near the eye sockets, so a hat with a brim is very important. Finally, and almost the most important, are the shoes of Mud Devil Leather. The ground outside is only getting wet and slippery, and these shoes can provide a huge tactical advantage.

Without a shield, a pot lid can help. The heavy rain outside will seriously affect the power of the crossbow. Even heavy crossbows with steel strings may lose their alignment due to slippage. Moreover, the heavy crossbow with steel strings is the weapon of Jiangu clansman. Human crossbows are mainly made of animal tendons. Rain will make it loose and lose its power.

Hold the pot lid in your hand to block it, and add the armored shirt, and you can almost avoid the fatal injury of the bow and crossbow. As long as you get into a melee, you can drop the lid of the pot as soon as you let go, and maybe even use it to smash people. There was constant thunder outside, and Dagon certainly wasn't standing in the open, with buildings beside and behind him predictably. Relying on the building can not only reduce the possibility of lightning strikes, but also block the bow and crossbow, reducing the direction of the enemy. He wanted to go back alone and try to rescue the people from the golden dog Chamber of Commerce, so he was naturally at a disadvantage in numbers, and these details had to be taken into account.

Finish what you need to eat and drink, and throw the weight that you need to excrete in this waste house, Dagon packs lightly. He hid the two sacks in a corner and went out the door with a canvas as a raincoat. The less water you have on your body, the better before you see an enemy.

White Horse Town, here comes the Dagon.
