Chapter 966 Peak Action
Two weeks after the implementation of the counterattack plan named "Operation Pinnacle", Roland received a report from the frontline reconnaissance lightning - the battalions of the First Army successfully completed the first step of the plan and joined forces in the "Sen Er" hidden in the forest. No. +176" break point.
The naming of this vertex applies the railway mileage marking method. The first half is the planned regional station, and the second half is the corrected distance. In other words, the turning point is located one kilometer and 760 meters ahead of Forest Track Station No. 2. The advantage of this marking is that Roland can accurately see the army's trajectory from the big map.
It is also the end of the current track extension. From here, the First Army will move to the second step of the battle - leaving the hidden forest and heading northeast of the wilderness on foot without the cover of leaves.
Whether you can destroy the devil's outpost all depends on whether you can take this step well.
As long as the fortress guns and machine gun positions are set up, the rhythm of war can return to the most familiar mode of the First Army.
"I understand," Roland heavily marked the turning point, "Where are the devils? Do they react?"
Listening to the rustling reply from the talisman, "Sylvie said not yet, they are still concentrating on building their outpost, and several black stone pillars have been erected. In addition, a "red line" appeared behind the outpost, and the staff Judging from this, the number of those long-legged guys is probably limited. "
This is good news. Agatha once said that the only thing that limits the devil's destruction of mankind is the red mist. If they have a way to break through this limit in the third war of divine will, it will be a disaster for everyone. Bad news. Apart from anything else, just because of the Terror Beast's mobility beyond its time, coupled with the astonishing combat effectiveness of the high-level devils, the long borders of the four kingdoms are basically no different from undefended sieves.
Roland now knows that the stone pillars in the outpost and the legendary Black Stone Tower are not the same thing, although they have many things in common. The former can store red mist and slowly release it, forming a special mist environment for the devil to absorb. In such an environment, the devil's functions and self-healing abilities will be improved. To simply understand, it is a home battle.
The stone pillar has an amplification effect and can treat one part of Red Mist as two parts of the envoy, but it will eventually consume the reserves. The Blackstone Tower can generate red mist on its own, and its coverage is much wider. It is basically the core of the devil city.
In addition, stone pillars cannot be used immediately after being transported. Information from ancient witches shows that there is a difference between dead and alive. They usually need to be planted and cultivated for about a month before they can secrete mist clouds. Before that, it could only be used as an enlarged version of the red mist can.
Sylvie's observations gave him more confidence. No one wants his opponent to run home to recuperate for two days after being injured, and then charge back vigorously, with a bunch of reinforcements behind him. According to the current construction speed, the First Army should be able to launch an attack before the stone pillar revives.
"In that case, please continue your investigation and notify me of any new information. Remember to put safety first at all times."
"Lightning understands."
Then the light of the listening sigil went out.
Roland picked up a ruler and compared it on the map - if nothing goes wrong, the First Army will enter the devil's reconnaissance circle six days later, when Ji Qiu arrives.
For people accustomed to fighting on land, this will be a difficult challenge.
"What, you are worried?" Nightingale put away the talisman and said, "The previous test of the new weapon--0---0---little--said---this is a gorgeous dividing line--let go of that witch 00 novel netizens please note: please pay attention to resting your eyes when reading for a long time. 00 novel recommended reading: Ogre's Food Box-0--0---Xiao--Said---This is a gorgeous dividing line--- Aren’t the test results pretty good?”
"But it is a test after all. No one knows what will happen in the war before experiencing it." Roland spread his hands and said, "What's more, when Sylvie focuses all her attention on the sky, the First Army can only rely on itself to deploy defenses. ”
"A balloon fluttering in the wind five kilometers away can hit every shot. This is incredible. Andrea will definitely live up to this weapon." Nightingale smiled, "As for Sylvie, she doesn't care. Alert, where are Lightning and Maisie? Didn't the First Army always come here like this before?"
Roland couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "When did you become so good at comforting people?"
"To be honest," Nightingale whistled, "Of course, my eloquence is also very good - there was no noble who came to me back then who was not convinced."
Uh...that's just a naked threat.
"Ahem, you're right," Roland curled his lips, "I'm going to take a nap later. I'll be in the office. If there's no urgent news, don't wake me up."
Nightingale seemed to realize something, "Here? Don't you need to inform the Taquila Witch?"
"No," Roland nodded, "Don't even let them get close to the castle."
"I understand," she agreed immediately, "Don't worry, I'm watching and no one will walk into the light beam."
…
Roland rarely takes a nap unless he is particularly tired or for some special reasons.
Such as this time.
A month has passed in the dream world since the last time she talked to Garcia, and it happened to be the day she returned from the headquarters to report on her work. According to the agreement, she would bring back a book that was written half a century ago and mentioned the word War of Divine Will. For some reason, Roland always felt that it was better not to let the Taquila survivors know about this news for the time being.
After thinking about it, he probably could take it calmly no matter what he discovered in the book, but those witches who regarded divine will as fate could not do that. Now that the war is approaching, it would be better to have fewer surprises.
Falling asleep at this moment was more like a switch in his mind. As long as he thought of this thought, he would fall asleep in just a few minutes, eliminating the pain of tossing and turning.
After Jieluo went to school, Roland couldn't wait to pick up the phone.
"Hello? Did you get that book?"
"If I say no, will you be very disappointed and even want to throw the phone?" Garcia's familiar sarcastic voice soon came from the receiver, "Please, you reminded me three days ago. It’s not that I’m forgetful, and it’s not like someone who doesn’t keep his word.”
Roland breathed a sigh of relief, "Don't fall. I have to support my family with my money, so I can't afford to fall."
"To support your family? The basic salary of a martial artist is not enough for you? Hey... you are not going on any wrong path, are you?"
Where did he go? He secretly murmured. What he wanted to raise was clearly a group of big eaters who had lived for hundreds of years. "I must state that we are familiar with each other -"
"Then you want to sue me for defamation? It's a new century now, please don't use such clichés, okay?" Garcia interrupted.
Roland almost couldn't hold in his breath. It was the most deadly thing to be complained about by the ancients...
He simply went straight to the point, "Okay, where is the book?"
"Of course it's at my house, come and get it," the other party replied.
