Chapter 1490 One Man Forms an Army

Although the "remote sensing technique" has no limit to the detection distance, it is a pity that the duration is too short, and the spiritual energy will be exhausted after ten minutes.

Joan returned his consciousness to the body, and while there was still some time, he took out the "Dragon Scale Amulet" from the storage bag and adjusted the preset "Refuge".

Joan originally set the teleportation point to Moriarty's laboratory at Midgard University. Now that he is in the south, he can't escape back to his mentor's laboratory in case of danger, so he changed the teleportation point to Delin Town your own home.

Tomorrow's ambush operation, Qiao An will shoulder the mission of an army alone, and being surrounded by the enemy is an inevitable situation. If he can't hold on, this "Dragon Scale Amulet" is his last life-saving magic weapon.

There were footsteps outside the door, followed by Wes's whisper.

"Dr. Vader, is it convenient for us to chat?"

"Come in, Weiss, I'm also looking for you to discuss tomorrow's battle plan."

Joan put away the "Dragon Scale Amulet", and took out a map scroll from Colonel Vasa's headquarters, and spread it on the carpet.

Weiss walked into the tent with moisture and sat cross-legged opposite Joan.

Joan noticed the melancholy in this old friend's eyes, and sighed secretly.

Of course he knew why Weiss was in a bad mood.

Weiss originally expected that the famous Asa general Magni Powhatan and his 500 brave cavalrymen would come to assist him in ambushing the goblin army. However, the Asahunters who were full of expectations did not come and came to cooperate with him. Only one young mage retreated from the enemy.

Wes certainly knows that Joan's spellcasting ability cannot be measured by age, which he realized when he and Joan first met two years ago.

The problem is that no matter how strong Joan is, he is only a single person, just a level 7 mage. The strength of a single person is no match for an army. Even with his help, Weiss does not think that he has a chance to defeat Leto through an ambush army.

In fact, deep in his heart, Weiss no longer had any hope of winning tomorrow, and was even more worried that the ambush would fail. Instead, he would be besieged by the goblin army, causing unnecessary sacrifices for the loyal knights around him.

Joan saw that Weiss had doubts about his ability, and he was not the kind of person who was good at boasting, so he simply spread out the map, pointed out the location circled in advance, and told Weiss straight to the point: "Launch an attack here, It's in our best interest."

Weiss looked at the map preoccupied, and then raised his head in doubt: "Joan, is the valley you chose too rugged and narrow, and the duck-billed dragoons cannot fully deploy their formation in such a narrow place, and it is difficult to launch Effective charge."

"On the surface, the terrain seems a bit narrow, but if the stream rises, the duck-billed dragoons can swim on the wide river. As for the goblins, most of them are not good at water, or they are washed into the depths of the downstream swamp by the flooding river. Either you can't escape the spears of the cold-blooded cavalry." Joan said unhurriedly.

Weiss repeatedly shook his head and smiled wryly.

"The analysis you made is based on a premise that the water level of the Delin River will rise sharply tomorrow. When the torrent from the upper reaches hits it, the water level in the swamp will also rise accordingly, and the valley will be submerged. The march constitutes an obstacle, and at the same time facilitates the ambush of our army."

"However, unless it rains continuously for three days and three nights, it is impossible for the situation you expect to happen."

"Indeed, March is the rainy season in Alfheim, but you also know that the spring rain is different from the summer rainstorm. The drizzle keeps falling, but it can't make the river rise sharply in a short period of time, and it can't form a river. Powerful Hongfeng."

Joan had expected that he would have such a question, and instead of answering directly, he asked a question.

"Wes, are you a level 10 druid? How many times can you use 'control water' at most?"

"Oh, Dr. Vader, I understand your plan!" Weiss' eyes lit up first, and then he thought to himself, "I have four 4th-level spell slots, and I will use them all to prepare for 'controlling water bodies' tomorrow." , there are also three 5th-level spell slots, which can be used with the super magic skill of 'Spell Expansion' to prepare an enhanced version of 'Manipulating Water Body'... Well, Joan, this is not enough to trigger a flood of valleys Great flood!"

"What if you add this?" Joan touched the storage bag and pulled out the "Water Control Wand". "With 10 charges, you can activate 'Control Water Body' 10 times."

Weiss took over the "water control wand", his face softened, and he said cautiously: "With this wand, I have 60% certainty to create a big flood that submerges the valley."

"Sixty percent sure..." Joan thought for a while, then asked Weiss, "What if there is another wand of the same kind?"

"Then I'm 100% sure!" The young lizardman patriarch asked in disbelief, "Do you really have a second 'water control wand'?"

It is understandable for a mage to carry two fireballs or lightning wands with him, but how can a normal person carry two identical "water control wands" on his body? Are you an irrigation specialist? !

Joan shook his head and smiled: "I only have such a 'water control wand', but I have a special technique that can temporarily refill the wand with energy."

"Really?" Weiss took a deep look at him, thinking that he didn't seem to be joking, and made a solemn decision: "Since you are so confident, then do as you say."

Joan nodded: "The next thing we're going to discuss is the follow-up arrangement after the goblin army is destroyed by the flood."

"If there is no accident, at least half of the goblins will be trapped in the flood. We only need to hold these guys who drifted into the mud." Weiss said with a smile.

"I'll leave it to you and your knights to chase down the goblins that were dispersed by the flood. As for the goblins that retreated to the back slopes to avoid the flood, I'll deal with them." Joan said softly.

"Joan, there's no need to do this, right?" Weiss frowned, "If you chase the enemy alone, even if you exhaust all the spell slots, you won't be able to kill many enemies. Instead, you will put yourself in the risk of being surrounded. It's not worth it !"

Joan unscrewed the pen and drew a circle on the map on the slope on the left side of the valley.

"I have cast a spell to investigate just now. The cliffs on both sides of the valley are very steep. It is difficult for the goblins to climb up the bare cliffs to avoid the flood. The only way to retreat and take refuge is on this gentle slope with bushes. After the flood , I immediately fly here to wait for the enemy, and use the terrain to destroy as many enemies as possible.”

"You just said that even if I exhaust all the spell slots, I can't kill many enemies?" Joan shook his head calmly, "That's not necessarily true."
