Chapter 226 The strange fog, the mystery of the stone pillar(1/2)
"The Demon Spirit Clan, the illusion creature, attack method is to confuse the opponent through illusion, thereby harming the opponent."
"The advanced demon spirit race can even control opponents through illusion. We once encountered a team of players controlled by the demon spirit race. Because they were unprepared, they suffered heavy casualties."
"After that we found skills and props that could restrain the magic of the Demon Spirit Clan. City Lord Zhao Tong ordered that players who leave the city must form a team, and one out of ten must have props and skills to restrain the Demon Spirit Clan."
"There are seven props to restrain the Demon Spirit Clan, five props can only be obtained through unboxing, and two props can be made by players using skills. At present, we have found a total of 279 players who can make props."
In the conference room, players from Wucheng were introducing the situation to Yang Mian and others.
Before, because players could not trade and resources could not be centrally utilized, even though Wucheng found more than 200 players who could make props, the number of props was not increased, so naturally it was impossible to send troops to the Demon Spirit Clan on a large scale.
But now with the large number of soul gems provided by the Mechanical Clan, Wu City finally has enough props to support a battle.
【Name: Qingxin Jade Pendant
Grade: Platinum
introduce:
Disposable props, when worn, when affected by illusion, the jade pendant will automatically alert. After crushing the jade pendant, it can form a field of fifty meters in radius. People in the field are not affected by illusion skills, and last for ten minutes]
Yang Mian played with the jade pendant in his hand. This was a prop specifically to restrain the Demon Spirit Clan. A platinum-level jade pendant can at least allow thousands of people to be affected by illusions for at least ten minutes. As long as the number of props is enough, it can completely support a war.
"The current number of the Demon Spirit Clan is about five million, and the individual combat power is not strong. As long as we can break their illusions, we only need one million people to destroy them." said a deputy city lord of Wu City.
Yang Mian nodded and looked at Jiang Meixue: "Can the General Staff come up with a detailed combat plan within a few days?"
Jiang Meixue: "Two days."
Yang Mian: "Okay, two days later, we will hold a pre-war meeting in Wucheng!"
......
On March 11, elite troops from six cities gathered in Wucheng.
Just as the General Staff had already planned a combat plan and millions of human army began to assemble, the players who had been responsible for long-range reconnaissance of the Demon Spirit Clan suddenly reported something strange.
"Two hours ago, this area of the Demon Spirit Clan suddenly fogged."
A player held a crystal ball the size of a basketball in his hand and pointed to the picture above and said.
"We tried various ways, but we couldn't detect the internal situation through this fog."
Yang Mian frowned and looked at the crystal ball, "This mist is still spreading outward?"
"Yes, the fog spreads very quickly. At this speed, it can spread outside the Xicheng Gate in one day at most."
Jiang Meixue suddenly said in a deep voice: "If this fog cannot be disposed of, it will be a big trouble."
"That's right!"
Another player from the staff said, "We have an absolute advantage in front of the attack when we have a illusion-breaking prop, but if we are in such a fog with extremely low visibility, our formation will easily be cut and then be beaten by the opponent with more and less, so our advantage will be gone."
Yang Mian nodded, and he also thought of this question, "Then stop sending troops first, and send a small number of elite forces to the area where the fog started to check the situation and find a way to disperse the fog."
Jiang Meixue: "Agree."
“Agree.”
“…”
So this plan was quickly passed and the city began to organize manpower.
An hour later, a total of twenty-three players, including Yang Mian, were preparing to set off on the west city wall.
"I still think you shouldn't come."
Yang Mian looked at Jiang Meixue beside him, feeling helpless.
That’s right, Jiang Meixue asked to participate in this operation.
"I said that I am already in the platinum level and have the ability to protect myself. My skills are very suitable for large-scale dispersion and even control of fog, so I need to participate in this operation." Jiang Meixue introduced calmly.
"In the end, I always feel that the fog this time is not easy, maybe it can be solved by force."
Yang Mian curled her lips. Didn’t this mean that she felt that this action might have to be solved by using her brain? She was worried that she would be the gang of rough people who only knew how to use force, so she followed her action.
"Then you will be by my side in a while, don't act alone." Yang Mian reminded Jiang Meixue.
Although Jiang Meixue is also a platinum-level expert, in Yang Mian's mind, the other party has always been the image of a military advisor, and is a type that uses his brain but does not. Therefore, he subconsciously feels that Jiang Meixue is a non-combatant and naturally needs to protect her.
And after experiencing so many things, Yang Mian is becoming more and more fortunate that he has someone like Jiang Meixue to assist him.
Whether it is managing things in the main city, dealing with matters of the human army, and strategizing on the battlefield, Jiang Meixue has shown great abilities. At least Yang Mian has not met a player who can surpass her in terms of IQ.
Yang Mian naturally needs to protect such a cherished talent. It would be a pity if he was left in the battle.
"Let's go."
After everyone was ready, Yang Mian greeted him and flew out of the city wall first.
All the players participating in the operation this time have the ability to fly and take off one after another.
After the group flew for about an hour, fog appeared in front of them.
The height of this white fog is nearly thirty meters and spreads forward at a slow speed.
Yang Mian did not immediately lead people into the fog, but tried first at the edge of the fog.
The first thing is to check whether the fog is toxic or corrosive. More than half of the players accompanying them have different reconnaissance skills, and it was quickly confirmed that the fog is not toxic or corrosive.
Jiang Meixue used the air wall to drive the fog around and cleared a clearing area.
"How is it?" Yang Mian asked.
Jiang Meixue shook her head: "It's very difficult. This kind of fog seems to have a strange resistance to the air. I need to consume a lot of soul energy to push the fog."
Her tone was a little regretful, because with her super control over the air wall skills and current strength, if the fog is normal, she could use an ultra-thin air wall to drive away fog on a large scale, and one person could clear the way forward for more than 100,000 people in the fog!
Except for Jiang Meixue, several other players have the ability to control the wind and want to blow away the fog in front of them. As a result, they encountered the same problem as Jiang Meixue. They used strong wind power but only blew away a small part of the fog. Once the wind power weakened, the fog quickly spread again.
"No, the resistance is too great and cannot be maintained for a long time!"
Several players spoke one after another.
"I'll try."
After Yang Mian finished speaking, he began to control the soul energy in his body to release it, and the energy furnace in his heart continuously provided him with soul energy.
Soon, a soul could enter the fog in the form of a sphere and push it away.
Yang Mian also felt a certain resistance, but with the strength of his platinum-level soul energy, this resistance is nothing, so he turned to the rest and said, "It's okay, it can be maintained for a long time. Let's go in."
"You can do this with your soul?"
Li Zerui asked, he had a strong sense of external soul energy, so he saw Yang Mian's technique.
Yang Mian nodded: "That's right, it's soul power."
"Can it last for a long time?" Li Zerui looked surprised.
All the people present can release their soul energy, but they cannot maintain it for a long time because the number of soul energy in their bodies is too small.
Yang Mian smiled: "Yes."
When the rest of the people heard this, they looked at Yang Mian with monster-like eyes, secretly guessing how much soul energy there was in the other party's body?
"Let's go."
Yang Mian and everyone flew to a height of about fifty meters first, and then flew towards the area where the fog first appeared.
The whole process went smoothly. They did not encounter the Demon Spirit Clan, and the Qingxin Jade Pendant they carried with them did not warn them.
When the group came to the sky above the scene, Yang Mian controlled his soul and wrapped all 23 people, and then fell downwards.
The soul can discharge the fog, but the visibility of everyone is also very low, and only this area can be wrapped by Yang Mian's soul.
Soon, everyone landed on the ground.
"Let's clean up this area first. Everyone chooses a direction and dispels the fog." Yang Mian ordered.
So everyone took action, Yang Mian was responsible for one semicircle alone, while the others joined forces to take charge of another semicircle, and began to drive away the fog around them with all their might.
As the surrounding fog was dispersed, the surrounding scenes were also reflected in everyone's eyes.
I saw white stone pillars, cylindrical, more than ten meters high and about three meters in diameter, standing in place, forming a stone forest.
"What's this?"
Players with reconnaissance skills actively use their skills to explore, but they have not received any information.
"Is it possible that this is some kind of formation? The Demon Spirit Clan uses this to create fog?" Yang Mian guessed.
Jiang Meixue: "If this is true, the Demon Spirit Clan will not have let us come here so easily."
"Let's try destroying a stone pillar first." Li Zerui suggested.
After the words came, Yang Mian slashed out of thin air with a knife. The light golden soul could break through the air and slash on the stone pillar not far away.
boom--
A crack was cut out from the stone pillar and then fell to the ground.
"It's not strong, it's easy to destroy." Yang Mian commented.
