Chapter 1305 Gathering Fighting Technique (Ⅰ)
"Aunt Gusselin, I have a question."
Medea also found a loophole in Guslin's plan.
"The hags' assembly has six members, who can release six spells at the same time, while our assembly has only four members, who can counter four spells at most at the same time. What are you going to do with the remaining two spells?"
"Honestly, I have no other way to do this. I can only take targeted defensive measures in advance. For example, we all know that there is a 'Lightning Beam' in the assembly spell. 'Lightning Beam', you can ignore it and give priority to countering those spells that cannot be overcome." Guslin answered frankly.
Medea nodded thoughtfully, and didn't continue to worry about this issue.
As Guslin said, there is no foolproof strategy on the battlefield, and many times you can only adapt to the situation.
On the bright side, if the hags squander their magic power unrestrainedly and bombard with all their strength every round, it won't be long before they run out of public spell slots and become six lambs waiting to be slaughtered.
"Auntie Guslin, the key point of the tactics you proposed is undoubtedly the spell countering, but there is a prerequisite for successfully countering the enemy's spells. You must first identify the spell that the opponent is about to release, and then you can use the same spell. counterattack."
"For us, the favorable condition is that we already know what gathering-specific spells hags have, which greatly reduces the difficulty of identification, but there is also a disadvantageous factor."
Joan pointed to the dense forest shrouded in darkness.
"In such a place with luxuriant foliage and dim light, our vision is severely limited. If someone casts a spell from a hundred feet away, he will not be able to see the other party's spell clearly, which greatly increases the difficulty of identification, not to mention that witches can Attacking from thousands of feet away, we may have been hit on the head by the 'frozen magic ball' flying over from the depths of the dense forest before we have time to detect the enemy casting spells."
"The concerns raised by the little mage are very reasonable. We must find a way to expand the field of observation and see every move of the hags clearly, so that we can counterspell in time." Guasilin said in a deep voice.
Gudora's eyes lit up, and she said excitedly: "Auntie! When we kidnapped the green hag, we took back a 'hag's eye' by the way. Since the hag assembly can use this gem to observe things in the distance, our witch assembly Of course you can!"
"We simply imitated the practice of the hags, casting a spell to summon a bird such as a crow or an owl, and adding the 'invisibility', so that the bird carried the 'hag's eye' and flew over the hag assembly to monitor, and at the same time , we can also see the actions of the hags through the 'hag eyes'!"
"Gudora, your idea is very interesting, but it's a pity that I don't want to do it." The old witch shook her head lightly, with a secretive expression: "The 'hag's eye' must be reserved for critical moments, and must not be out of my grasp!"
Gudora saw that her aunt had other plans, and it was inconvenient to ask questions in front of outsiders, so she had to give up the idea of using the "hag's eye".
"By the way, isn't Joan able to establish a sensory link with us? How about using this to monitor the hag assembly!"
Medea has a new idea.
"I can cast a spell to fly over the heads of the hags, observe them invisibly, and then communicate what I see to Joan through the sensory link, and Joan then tells the companions in the assembly through the spiritual connection."
"Medea, that's a good idea, but it's not appropriate for you to go scouting." Joan looked at the Gorgon and warned in a low voice: "The hags' congregation spells include 'see through invisibility', your target is too big, it's easy to be spotted ,Too dangerous."
"Then who do you think is suitable for investigation?" Medea asked a little unconvinced.
Qiao An didn't make a sound, just chanted the mantra, and the little finger of his left hand was quietly broken, separated from the palm, and transformed into a tiny blood mosquito under the influence of magic power.
Joan raised her hand to touch the blood mosquito, arousing a "mythical power", establishing a "mythical link" with this tiny spy, and then issued a spiritual command, ordering her to search for the traces of the hags.
The blood mosquito fluttered its wings and flew high, activated the "invisibility technique", disappeared from everyone's sight, and sneaked into the dense forest without a sound.
Joan turned back to Guslin and Medea and said: "I sent the blood mosquito to monitor the hag gathering. It is very small and does not make the slightest sound when flying. It is difficult to detect in the dark forest. Take a step back and say, Even if the blood mosquito is discovered by the hag and casts a spell to kill it, it will not be a serious problem to me."
"Very good! Little mage, the task of monitoring the hag is entrusted to you!"
Guslin patted Joan's shoulder hard, and then said to Medea, Gray Bird and Bell: "You three, don't run around, follow us and serve as the bodyguard of the rally, in case the bully frogs rush Come near, you should take action to solve it as soon as possible, and we must not let the group of green-skinned bastards interfere with our focus on casting spells."
"Auntie, you are really good at calling people!"
Medea complained a little, but did not refuse the old witch's arrangement.
After everything was ready, Guslin opened the "Any Door" and took Joan, Gudora, and Ruby directly to the battle zone deep in the dense forest.
Medea also opened the "Any Door", took Gray Bird and Bell, and teleported after Guslin and the others, shouldering the duty of the rally bodyguard.
...
In the depths of the damp and dark mangrove forest, there were screams and roars one after another, and the flashes of magic light from time to time aroused strong shock waves.
The strong wind was blowing towards him, and the salty smell filled his nose, and Joan couldn't tell if it was the smell of sea water or blood.
Guslin's call came from the ear, reminding the rally companions to move closer to her and prepare for the battle.
Qiao An didn't forget his mission, and quickly switched the observation time to Blood Mosquito Detective, flapping his wings across the forest, searching for traces of the hags.
Considering that the green hags are all proficient in "invisibility", Qiao An activated the "see through invisibility" of the prosthetic eye.
After thinking about it, he activated "Darkvision", "Mist Sight" and "Tremor Perception" one by one, and projected all these sensory-enhancing spells on Blood Mosquito Agent through "Myth Link".
The results showed that his prudence was necessary. On the west side of the dense forest, at a distance of nearly 900 feet from his party's assembly line, Blood Mosquito Agent caught a group of suspicious figures and quickly opened the "Invisibility Barrier" and "Silence Barrier". Arrived silently for investigation.
Approaching at a distance of a hundred feet, through the sharp compound eyes of the blood mosquito spy, Joan saw six rickety figures gathered in the forest, seeming to be arguing. Judging from their non-stop gesticulations, the quarrel was still fierce.
