Volume 2 [Dark Tide] Chapter 519 Solution

The two major forces of the undead and the orcs had frictions with Efta one after another. The war was like a dark cloud coming from the sky, making people nearby feel the danger contained in it. But those who are far away, there are always bystanders with the mentality of watching the show, believing that such a war will never burn on themselves.

Charles II was happy to hear about Efta's experience, while Rody stared at the "new task" before him, worrying about the solution to the current crisis.

【Judgment of the Throne of Bones】

"Finally, your victories have completely annoyed the owner of the Throne of Bones. Now, he will use all resources to eradicate all threats and crush all obstacles in front of him!

Stop him, defeat him! "

Judging from the task description, this should be the last step of the entire task. From Rody's previous experience in doing a series of missions, the final step of the mission is very difficult, and the duration and intensity will be longer than the previous few steps-but no matter how many or difficult, it means that the mission prompts are given. with a chance of success. Judging by the handwriting of the "orange yellow" mission in front of him, this mission is not "difficult" for the current "Cabinet Prime Minister" Roddy.

It's just that Rody is very clear that the difficulty of the task is only a one-sided description. Now that the orcs and the royal family of the Karen Kingdom are attacking at the same time, if they fight on multiple fronts, the difficulty of the mission will naturally increase significantly.

But there is no room for compromise in this mission right now, Roddy must grit his teeth and go on.

"This reward...is really a style unique to big missions."

Scanning the mission reward description below, Rody couldn't help sighing.

In addition to the reward experience value of 2.17 million, the "Basic Talent Points", "Advanced Professional Talent Points", "Rune Enhancement", and "Skill Enhancement" all display "Rewards are determined according to the degree of task completion".

And this mission also rewards epic equipment,

And the quantity is astonishing, one each of long sword, short sword, long bow, belt, necklace, and ring. The attributes and levels are also written "rewards are determined according to the degree of task completion".

The reward of the last step of the task is comparable to the sum of all previous step-by-step tasks, which is the main reason why countless people wanted to take up the "series of tasks". But they also ignore a cruel reality: most people can't even complete the task at all.

Rody sighed, but turned to another task called "Resisting the Invasion of Foreign Enemies" - different from "Judgment of the Throne of Bones", this task was classified as a "Territory Task". It's strange, because he also took a series of territorial missions before, but none of them involved "war". Most of them are trivial tasks like "open the library and run it for 15 days, reward the city with xx points of reputation". But this mission made Rody have to look sideways:

"Reward for successfully defending Elson City: Unlock the construction permission of primary floating buildings."

It's like putting a plate of freshly made braised pork in front of a person who has been hungry for three days. After seeing these task rewards, Luo Di only had one thought: I have to do this task even if I do my best!

Although Elson City has many floating towers, they are all products of the high elves more than 700 years ago. Without blueprints and guidance technology, they want to rely on the group of half-baked human mages in Elson City to build them. Floating towers are simply impossible—and once possessing such a technology, it will mean that Roddy has taken a big step towards air supremacy!

In an era when land warfare occupies the absolute mainstream, air supremacy means absolute initiative.

Roddy clenched his fists secretly... No matter what, these two tasks must be completed as much as possible, because he knows very well that if Elson City can survive this crisis, no one will be able to stop its take-off in the future!

"Since so many enemies are coming to trouble you right now, Rody—are you sure you can hold on?"

Merlinsera's voice dragged Rody back from his fantasy to reality, and it also cooled down his newly ignited determination a lot.

In the study, Nata brought over the sorted orc and undead information, and waited for Rody to ask for details. Melinsella was sitting relaxed and eating fruit on the wooden platform, and Camilla stood beside Roddy, waiting for him to give all orders about preparing for war.

Akasha knew that she couldn't help, so she just continued to practice spells like Nefei, so the room was quite quiet when Rody was thinking.

Merlinsera curiously held up a simple map hand-drawn by Rody: "Three forces declared war on you at the same time, what are you going to do? Send troops to beat him back?"

"If possible, I will definitely do so, but the baggage can't support the active battle. It's okay to fight once or twice. If you don't fight the third time, you will wear yourself down."

Roddy shook his head, he had already done such a calculation problem. After all, Efta's resources are not enough, and it is even more stretched after being stuck in the grain trade by the royal family.

"Actually, Efta's current combat preparations are quite complete. If we only need to rely on the fortress and the city to defend it, the orcs may have no way at all-they don't have enough siege equipment."

Camilla tried to analyze the situation. She was exposed to a large amount of information every day, so she spoke clearly.

"It's just that the orcs are definitely fine. That's what I originally planned. But if the undead get in the way, the result may not be certain."

Roddy couldn't help recalling his previous experience, and sighed after a moment of trance: "The undead is like a beast that can mutate infinitely and reproduce rapidly. It's fine if you lock it up, but once it's released, I'm afraid it won't even be able to control itself." Live in the direction of development..."

In front of the sea of ​​skeletons and zombies all over the mountains and plains, and in the face of the bone prison techniques of the necromancer, it is only a matter of time before any city falls-Elson City may be able to stop it, but who owns Elson City in the entire Karen Kingdom? defense level?

"The cobalt gold mine cannot be lost, so this group of bones must not be allowed to cross the border." Rody drew a line on the map at the location of the Gondola Mountains, talking to himself while clarifying his strategic thinking, "No Let Houdini know the crisis I am facing, and resolve it as soon as possible, otherwise these things cannot be hidden..."

He gathered clues and inferences one by one, stared at the map of Efta, and slowly deduced the possible situation-this is the biggest advantage brought by the reborn in terms of information asymmetry.

"The battle of the undead is like a snowball. Once they start to win, they will become more and more fierce until no one can stop them... On the contrary, the orcs will often start to fall into chaos after their three tricks. At this time, the trouble will be small. Some…"

Rody's eyes slowly moved away from the outer defense line of Efta, and he couldn't help looking at the Tasman Empire.

"So—the solution is always in front of us..."

The countless thoughts in his mind suddenly condensed into a light, which made him suddenly heave a sigh of relief, and then he raised his head and asked, "Nata, has it been raining in Tasman?"

Everyone in the room was stunned, and Melinsera almost choked on the fruit in her mouth: "Cough...Roddy, have your thoughts been jumping like this all the time?"

But when she finished speaking, she remembered the scene when she faced the incarnation of Bolantulu. If it weren't for the seemingly inexplicable instructions that Rody gave her, she might have become a sacrifice for the demigod to restore her power...

Realizing this, she turned her head to look at Nata, who was still puzzled, and the latter replied sternly: "Yes, it has been raining since I crossed the Gondola Mountains, and the rain hardly stops."

"now it's right…"

Rody narrowed his eyes, and the corners of his mouth, which had always been stern, finally raised a slight arc.

…………

"Great chief! My warriors can't wait, why can't we attack those cowardly humans now?"

"Great chief, as long as we lead the wolf cavalry troops out now, aren't those villages still in our hands? Let's take them down first, and the food burden will also be relieved!"

The noise was endless, but Sauron, who was riding a wolf, had a cold face and seemed unmoved.

The orcs' luggage was simple, and there were not many carriages to carry their luggage. As a combat unit, the wargs couldn't be used to pull all the goods, so the large orc troop was not moving fast. Compared with the Efta villagers who were fleeing in an emergency, the speed was a full one-third slower.

At the same time, because the orcs are generally uneducated, it is difficult for the current team to emphasize any "order". It may be difficult for the world-famous human beings to understand the pain of "running all over the place mentally", and Sauron has to face such troubles now.

Except for the guards he trained so hard to be able to barely "prohibit orders", those tribes who had just attached themselves for a long time were completely disorganized. Even if Sauron and several warlords emphasized it countless times, the results they got were the same—— —He felt that not only these guys were mentally retarded, but even Du Yan and their subordinates were mentally retarded!

Say "go forward," "go left," and these guys get it right. However, when Sauron gave the order to "advance 150 kilometers, set up camp and rest before evening, and maintain a lateral distance of 10 kilometers from the main force", the tribe fought internally because several orcs leading the team could not understand the order. , causing the entire team to be delayed by eight kilometers before being discovered...

Sauron, who was born in the orc tribe, thought that he knew his own kind well, but when he ruled this large tribe, he discovered that it was not accidental that this tribe was driven to the Nehemiah prairie. Because more than one-third of the orcs can't even tell the difference between their left and right hands, it is not easy to report numbers within ten.

This made him even a "unified formation" a luxury for a while.

Therefore, he has never dared to give orders lightly, and even sits in the army center every day to ensure the execution of orders. The seemingly menacing large army is really walking on thin ice in Sauron's eyes. Once a troop is out of control, it is likely to cause a chain reaction. This is the risk of ruling a large tribe. The pressure of the past few days made Sauron feel a little haggard, but looking at the Karen Kingdom that is getting closer, he thinks that all of this is worth it.

But this good mood lasted until the wolf cavalry who explored the way came back.

The news of the heavy losses on the front line caused a thousand waves, and the warlords couldn't sit still.

"Warchief...we can't wait any longer!"

"These humans must be ready!"

After the four warlords heard the news, they rushed over to apply pressure. Under the pressure of your words, Sauron couldn't continue to press hard, so he nodded and said: "Mugol, your troops are at the forefront. Now you can speed up and start attacking from the villages in the north of the border!"

"Yes! Great Chief!"

The warlord named Mugor laughed and jumped onto the warg, and quickly disappeared into the noisy and crowded troops with his skillful riding skills.

But in the quarrel of the remaining three warlords, Sauron narrowed his eyes—he remembered the mortal enemy he would face eventually, and he didn't know what kind of identity the other party would face him after more than a year ?
