Chapter 1312 Countermeasures
As the devil king, the Lord of the Sky's ability is indeed amazing. The space channel opened by magic can be used for rapid maneuvers and can also be used as a shield or weapon. However, if you analyze it carefully, you will find that it is not without flaws. .
"The first thing that can be confirmed is that this high-level devil can only open one channel at a time, and the entrance side is within its reach." Edith said, "The limit distance on the other side is difficult to determine, but It can reach at least two kilometers.”
"Sounds like an enhanced version of the trajectory ability."
After getting along with Roland for a long time, Agatha also learned a lot of weird words from him, such as "enhanced version", "specially enhanced version", "enhanced enhanced version" and so on...
"That's true based on the distance alone," Northland Pearl nodded, "but the number of channels created by the trajectory depends on the amount of magic power, and the Lord of the Sky must open a new channel after closing the previous channel. The situation at that time was difficult for it It is impossible to hide something even if the situation is extremely urgent. This is very important, and it determines our basic response plan - if the other party can use multiple channels at the same time, the situation will be a hundred times more complicated."
After the two of them had finished digesting it, she continued, "Another key point is that although the entrance and exit of the passage can be freely scaled, Hykezord must stand near the door to maintain its existence. According to Miss Silver's observation , when the explosion occurred on Grand Duke Island, it took a few seconds to close the gate before flying to the south of the island."
"This means...the wider the door opens, the slower it closes?" Iron Ax said thoughtfully.
"It's very possible." Edith spread her hands and said, "And the last point is its fatal injury - Hykezord is not a demon slayer. He can neither control the actions of the witch, nor can he control the person wearing the God's Punishment. It poses a sufficient threat to the stone people. Although its body is not weaker than the transcendent, fighting at close range will also make it trapped in the forbidden demon field. I think it will never be willing to exchange its own life for just two or three people. kind."
She paused at this point, "To sum up, the main ability of the Lord of the Sky is to develop a two-way channel with it as the center and a radius of several kilometers, and only one channel is allowed to exist at a time. No matter it is the head or the tail, as long as the door If both sides are affected by the sacred stone, the passage will disintegrate."
"So if it happens again, our response plan is..."
"If it is located on the outer edge of the position, and the exit side of the door is not facing the position, just let Miss Sylvie direct the artillery fire to cover it." Edith said methodically, "If the exit side of the door is within the position, then Or it can directly use the small door to quickly rush into the First Army's position, then the soldiers don't have to do anything and just leave it to the professionals."
"Do nothing?" Tie Ax was stunned for a moment, then suddenly said, "...I see."
"That's right," Edith smiled. "In fact, the most effective way for the Lord of the Sky to attack is to use our firearms to kill ourselves. Once the soldiers can stop their hands, the threat to the battlefield will be limited—— As I said before, this ability is almost irreplaceable for strategic deployment, but using it for offense is not a good choice."
Facing the First Army line that ignores it, it is impossible for the Devil King to rush into the trench and fight the soldiers at close quarters. That way, when the professionals - the heavily armored God's Punishment Witch arrives on the scene, it will have no choice but to die.
"What if the opponent uses the gap between shelling to counterattack?" Agatha asked after pondering for a moment, "For example, it first opens a channel to the outside, making us mistakenly think that it is transporting troops, but then opens a new door after the shelling, and will Aim the exit side of the position so that we may be hit by artillery fire from our side."
Thinking of this is enough to prove that the Ice Witch has put a lot of effort into Gray Castle's new weapons.
"This is indeed a theoretically feasible method, but I don't think the Lord of the Sky will do that." Edith explained, "The door for single passage can be completed in the blink of an eye, but if you want to expand it to The giant door that is completely protected by himself takes time. The time difference between the two is extremely limited, and if it fails, the result will be to be blown to pieces by the cannonballs falling behind it. For the monarch, this move is too risky. "
"In short, I can understand that the threat posed by the Lord of the Sky to the frontline positions is not as great as previously expected, right?" Iron Ax said while touching his chin.
"This is the current conclusion of the staff." Edith answered in the affirmative, "Of course, this is only when Hykezord leads the battle alone. If there are other princes cooperating, then how dangerous it is It will increase several times in an instant.”
——For example, leading Ersluk directly into the center of the position.
Iron Ax and Agatha couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the latter had died on the fertile plain.
"But it is not ruled out that new demon slayers will appear, so if possible, it is best to find a chance to solve this trouble." There was a hint of murderous intent in Beidi Pearl's tone, "Only by completely disappearing can we truly be considered to be no threat. .”
Hearing this, Agatha couldn't help feeling a little emotional. Not only did a "mortal" have no fear of the devil, he was actually planning how to kill a devil king. In the past, it sounded absolutely delusional. Nowadays, no one would find it strange, as if it is a matter of course.
Humanity has indeed changed a lot in the past four hundred years.
Be it people or things.
Maybe the Federation's silence isn't all bad.
At least they did not extend the fear of powerful enemies from that era to this era.
Now that I think about it, during the Federation period, there might have been many ordinary people who had potential like Edith Kant, but the pessimism and fear that spread among the ethnic groups restricted their thoughts and wills, and the conditions deliberately created by the upper levels The estrangement made that era as a whole look bleak.
But this time, before humans could taste true despair, Roland Wimbledon stopped it from spreading.
As her mind surged, she recalled the scene when she woke up from her long sleep in the ice coffin and met Roland for the first time.
Everything started from that sentence...
"Heckzord will probably not step on the same trap twice. Do you have any good ideas?" Iron Ax asked.
"As long as the First Army's actions are flexible enough, they can still find opportunities to kill the opponent without setting a trap - for example, equip the Skyfire with a large-caliber weapon that can launch the divine stone."
"That's true." The commander-in-chief muttered, "But that requires a lot of divine stone warheads. Could it be that you have already figured out a way to process the divine stone?"
"How can it be."
"ah?"
Edith shrugged, "I'm just the chief of staff, not a god. It's okay to give advice. As for how to implement it, I will naturally leave it to His Majesty Roland. Don't worry, I have written all these things in the battle report, for the sake of the front line. To win, he should do his best."
The other two people couldn't help but twitch their lips.
It seems that His Majesty's white hair... will grow a few more.
