Tron was called by his adjutant. There were two candles in the room, but the sunlight shone in through the gaps in the curtains. The gaps kept shaking under the morning breeze, and a solemn smell came with the wind, as if a storm was gathering outside.
"It's already morning, how is the situation outside?" Tron shook off the quilt and began to wear armor with the help of his adjutant.
"Nothing special happened, except that the weather didn't feel good." Tron's adjutant was a veteran who had participated in dozens of battles and was experienced. The number of scars on him was twice that of Tron's age. "I wouldn't be surprised if the battle would happen today."
Tron solemnly wore an exquisite magic necklace, and a dove egg-sized earth element gem hung on the Misilan chain. This is a protective necklace made for him by Feiqi. It has a protective ability comparable to a heavy armor and weighs only as much as a dagger. At present, the number of this necklace is not large, and only the main officers of the Knights of the Hell can wear it.
"You think you're going to fight today, why?"
"I have never seen a battle that will take place in the wind and sunny weather." The veteran said, "When I woke up in the morning, the weather turned sharply and suddenly turned strong. The sudden strong wind blows the emperor's flag off the flagpole. Can this be a good sign?"
Tron frowned, and his movements of wearing clothes increased significantly. "Why didn't you call me at that time?"
"Your Majesty specifically told you to sleep until this time, and I can only obey." The adjutant said: "He said that you will go to him after you wake up, and your Majesty will wait for you in the Third Watch Tower."
The city had long implemented a rationing system, taking care of soldiers on the defense line, followed by porters, construction workers and other logistics personnel who helped the defense line. Tron was the commander of the Knights of Hell. His breakfast was a loaf of bread, a glass of milk, a piece of butter, two eggs and three sausages. He had no time to sit down and eat slowly, grab some by himself, and let the adjutant catch some, and the breakfast was solved on the road. So when Tron saw Feich, he was still holding a small section of bread in his hand and his mouth was filled with eggs.
The third watchtower is located on the east side of the palace, standing alone on the city wall, protruding a distance outward. If you jump from the top of the tower, there will be hundreds of meters of "freedom of faith" time, and then the hard ground will be turned into a two-dimensional object. Feiqi placed two high chairs and a high table beside the chest wall of the top of the tower, and he could see the situation outside when he sat. If he wanted to get on the platform, he could only resist the cold wind.
"I have boiled tea here, let it cool for you, so you can drink it directly." Feiqi pointed to the water cup on the table. "Feat the meal first before you can have the energy to work."
Tron nodded, helped deliver breakfast with warm tea, and then wiped his mouth. Seeing that he finished eating, Fitch said to the soldiers around him, "You all go down to avoid the wind for a while, and wait until I ask you to come up again."
So, only Fitch and Tron were left on the top of the tower.
A illusion array used to deceive surrounded the two of them. Anyone who wants to peek, whether with his eyes or spells, will only get the wrong information. Feiqi took a sip of hot water, cleared his throat, and said, "Even if he doesn't use prophetic spells, I can feel that the battle is today."
"Is it because of this weather?" Tron said.
"Oh, this weather was caused by me, but it was just an indirect result." Feiqi said: "The blood-colored meteor is a large-scale application of space spells. Unfortunately, I am very sensitive to it. The guys in the second world want to smash the meteor down. How can they succeed? I used the palace's reverse teleportation array to block the nearby space, and the meteors can only land outside the city. This bad weather is an unnatural phenomenon caused by the space-blocking array."
"Will this consume your mana?"
"It's nothing for me. The magic circle is powered by elemental gems and spiritual coins. I can still burn it for the time being." Feiqi scratched his neck and said to Tron: "From now on, the Knights of Hell will enter a complete combat state, and I will hand over the defense line to you. Before victory, I will not give you any orders, except for the following one..."
Feichi looked serious, glanced at the north of the city and said, "I can't support you. You and the Knights of Hell must defend the defense line in the north and block the enemy's offensive as much as possible."
"The mission of the Knights of Hell is to fulfill the will of the emperor." Tron replied: "This is a glorious task, and the defense line will inevitably stand under our protection, even if the monster of Terrasque is coming."
"Well, among these lines of defense, you are the one I trust the most." Feich signaled Tron to come with him to the edge of the tower and overlook the city of Tawugang. "Come on, I'll tell you what will happen next. You need to know how this battle is fought and be able to make your own judgment. Of course, the most important thing is to strengthen the confidence of the Knights of Hell."
Feiqi pointed to the defense line in the north, where there were fortifications of the Knights of the Hell and the completed magic circle. "There will be the first to usher in the attack from the enemy. Their target is the magic circle, so we must first break through your defense line. The number and strength of the enemies will not be weak, and the Knights of the Hell will usher in a tough battle. I will not ask about the specific tactics and commands, and I have no time to help you fight - because the Terasque monster will come from the south or the west."
Tron was happy and asked quickly, "Your Majesty, have you obtained the information for investigation?"
His Majesty the Emperor shook his head. "There is no intelligence, but I can get it from both directions."
"There are dead-hard parts of the souls of the guys in the Second World. They also use a special method to connect them with each other, which makes them very loyal and enthusiastic. It is too difficult to penetrate into their internal core to obtain intelligence. The empire is full of holes and any information can be leaked," Fitch said. "I can't know what they are going to do, but I can guide them on how to do it."
"Only you know the whole plan except me. I tell you it's because of the importance of the Hell Knights on the battlefield. The magic circle in the north will allow the commander of the Second World to put all the troops except the Terrasquie beasts into it, and have to fight your Hell Knights head-on. Only Terrasquie's primary target will be me."
"They are afraid of you," Tron said.
"They are not afraid, but they are inaccurate - they will be afraid in the future." Feiqi smiled and said, "The guys in the Second World have failed to kill me more than once. The Terrasquie monster is almost the last resort for them to deal with me in the Yongli Continent. In order to improve the winning rate, they will try to create a one-on-one situation for me and Terrasquie. It is best to let the giant attack suddenly, and the most unfavorable situation is that I concentrate on dealing with Terrasquie with the help of the magic circle."
"They can't figure out my strength, so they can only act as a magic circle that is really effective. Every Blood Meteor Night will send many monsters, and there are some left in the past. This part of the monsters and the second world's supporters would be better off destroying the magic circle so that the Terrasquie monster has no natural enemies." Feiqi pointed to the north: "These people will deal with you, and at the same time, the Terrasquie monster will attack from another direction, leaving me alone."
"It is unlikely that it will come from the sea. In the water, Hydes can narrow the gap in combat power with the giant beast. With Shani and I working together, Terrasque will still repeat the last failure. It is very likely that it came from land and completely avoided Hydes, and in the west and south directions, the south is further away from the magic circle."
"I am the only one who can fight with Terrasquie, so I can only go south. I will lead Terrasquie to the west and take it to the magic circle north of the city. The enemy will definitely step up the attack. It is the most dangerous at that time. Don't be stingy with ammunition. That magic circle is very difficult to destroy, so it is also possible to let them occupy it. Remember to eliminate the living forces and don't care about the land one foot at a time."
Tron clenched his fists and looked at His Majesty the Emperor with a worried look: "Feich, you are facing Terrasque alone..."
"This is what I have to do, it is the emperor's duty, just as you, as the commander of the Hell Knights, have to face the enemy's tide. You may die, and I may die, don't worry about this." Feichi waved his hand and said, "I have prepared a gift for the Terasque monster and bought it for a pot."
"But without a magic circle, can you resist the giant beast?"
"Absolutely." Feiqi said with a smile: "Haha, no matter how bad I am, I'm better than Hydes!"
"That's for sure. You'll catch Hydes... please come back." Tron smiled reluctantly and said, "But I don't quite understand one thing: is it still the core of the combat plan to lead Terrasque to the magic circle?"
"The magic circle in the north of the city cannot deal with Terasqui, and the one slowly being built in the south of the city is not good either. I will block between Terasqui and Tawugang. I won't tell you what to do, just focus on doing your own thing."
"But... Feiqi, you invested so much, the treasury was empty, and the magic array built was just a decoration? Is it a lie before that it emitted such strong space energy fluctuations, is it also a lie?"
"Yes!" Feiqi said: "I must make the enemy believe that the magic circle is useful, so it must be valuable, complicated, must occupy a large amount of manpower, and must be able to release powerful mana fluctuations. I spent a lot of money, but the treasury was not available. Today, after you return to the position, go to the east, the ninth trench bunker to three-quarters of the tenth trench bunker, there is a secret door leading to the warehouse. I have prepared two hundred base ammunition and replacement parts for you."
"Puff!" Tron almost spit out the breakfast. "Two hundred bases? Are you going to kill the gun?"
"Then let's fight and kill them - the premise is to kill all the enemies first." Feiqi said: "Good steel must be spent on the blade. Your Hell Knights are the blade. Show it well. Win this battle, the situation will get much better, and I have the spare energy to reverse the situation. This battle can be a tragic victory, and you can die together, but you can't fail."
"The Knights of Hell have gone to hell. We are no longer afraid of death. Our only enemy is failure." Tron said: "The members of the group will know that His Majesty the Emperor fights side by side with them and faces life and death victory and defeat. Their morale will be very high. The defense line in the north of the city will not be lost."
At this time, Feiqi waved his hand and signaled that it was time for Tron to go to the position. After the commander of the Hell Knights left, Feiqi stayed alone on the tower and continued to look at his city. He had already smelled the scent of war, but before everything actually happened, the waiting period was very difficult.
The magic circle on the north side of the city is a cover. It has many functions, but none of them are targeted at the Terrasque monster. Feiqi has other plans. He had imagined a long time ago that the giant beast trap magic circle is designed, tested and built in hell, and assembled on earth. This is the fastest and best way to complete the magic circle. But in actual applications, the magic circle is dead and the giant beast is alive. How can the magic circle that cannot be moved capture the giant beast that is rushing around?
But why must the magic circle be dead?
Feiqi discovered a misunderstanding of thinking. All magic circles are attached to other matters, such as stone pillars, reliefs and vast land, which is conducive to its proximity to earth elements and is used to increase stability and strengthen itself. But magic circles are just "items" after all, so why not use teleportation to relocate it directly?
On the one hand, only large magic circles are worth relocating, but teleporting large objects is too difficult and few people can do it. On the other hand, space teleportation will change the environment around the magic circle. Magic circles do not have souls like humans that can adapt to the environment, which will lead to problems with the effectiveness of the magic circle. The larger and more complex magic circles are, the more serious the problem. The construction process is the process of its compatibility with the surrounding environment, which is similar to the process of birth. The magic circle is not a living thing, so it only has this opportunity to adapt to the environment.
Feiqi solved this problem. First of all, he had no technical obstacles in teleporting large-scale objects. Secondly, his magic array is a space magic array. The magic array is moved around, and as long as it does not destroy its basic structure, it can still be activated. His space magic array would have changed the surrounding environmental characteristics, so when Feiqi built this magic array, he used the activated environmental characteristics as its basic state, so there was no need for adjustment.
As long as it is activated, it will adapt more and more and more smoothly until it can fully exert its own effects. In order to achieve this effect, Feiqi built two magic circles in Hell. One is for experiments, all of which are temporary materials, which are always open to create suitable spatial and environmental characteristics. The second is for practical use, using materials with longer time. The reason why permanent materials are not used is due to the load of the wallet.
Moreover, defeating Terrasque is the only purpose of this magic circle, and it can retire with peace of mind.
Fitch stood quietly on the tower, waiting and meditating. On that afternoon, hundreds of meteors suddenly fell from the sky and flew to the north of the city on a large scale. At the same time, the earth began to rumble, and earthquakes continued to come from the south.
Chapter completed!
