Chapter 1943 Alliance
"I agree with Dolly." Holden quickly reached a consensus with the parrot.
"I also second." Audrey smiled and joined the birdman united front.
"Instead of being harassed by the harpies all the time, it's better to unite with the Lilliputians here to solve this trouble." Joan's attitude was also very clear.
Hyrule himself also tends to cooperate with the dwarves. Since everyone agrees, he readily accepted Queen Minnie's invitation and stayed on the island to fight side by side.
Queen Minnie was very pleased, and immediately informed the tribe of the good news, which drew cheers.
Joan could feel that the attitude of the dwarves towards their side had obviously become more friendly.
Queen Minnie told her allies frankly that her people had little help in the fight against the Harpy.
After all, the size gap between the two sides is too large, and the Harpy has the huge advantage of flying. Unless it actively lands on the ground, the dwarves cannot attack them at all.
On the contrary, the harpy can sing "Ecstasy" in the air up to 300 feet above the ground, luring the dwarves who are not strong enough to take the initiative to go to the open area, and then swoop down to pick it up and tear it into pieces. eat.
In order to resist the Harpies' harassment, the dwarves have made great sacrifices and developed some coping strategies over the years.
For example, use cork plugs to block the ears to isolate the singing of the Harpy, and then pretend to be controlled by "Ecstasy". When the Banshee flies down, take advantage of her negligence and launch a surprise attack with "Colorful Jet", or use The "water-making technique" wet the feathers, and when she couldn't fly, the dwarves in ambush rushed up and beat up the harpies.
Not to mention that this kind of tactics is too risky, the dwarves who acted as bait escaped death, and the bigger disadvantage is that they can only deal with small groups of harpies. If there are hundreds of enemies, the dwarves can only get into the tree hole Hidden in the depths, praying not to be picked out and eaten by natural enemies.
The entire Lilliput Kingdom has a population of about 2,000, and there are less than 20 spellcasters like Queen Minnie. She is the only one who inherited the witch profession and the "Ice Storm Wand" from her mother. She cooperates with the flying magic pet albatross to fight Seven or eight harpies are not at a disadvantage, and the rest are low-level warlocks. Single-handedly fighting a harpy is the limit of ability.
Minnie had witnessed Joan and others fighting the Harpy with her own eyes, and was deeply impressed by their tyrannical strength, especially Joan's unique tactics of driving the "Iron Maiden" to hit the Harpy, which shocked her deeply and prompted She made up her mind to invite these young humans to join forces against the Harpy.
It was precisely because of the deepest impression on Joan when watching the battle yesterday, Queen Minnie showed special respect for the young mage, and offered to invite him to formulate a battle plan.
In fact, Qiao An has already started to think about this issue.
If Queen Minnie did not exaggerate, there are at least three or four hundred harpies that have been tracked from the waters where the Saddle Islands are located. A fierce battle awaits everyone, and they must be fully prepared.
After thinking for a while, Joan finally broke the silence.
"We can use a device similar to a beetle bottle to build a few more 'refuge huts' on the ground as a fortress for the dwarves. Don't worry about anything else, just wait for the harpies to land near the huts and then rush out to fight. , After killing the enemy, retreat to the house and wait for the next opportunity."
"Hylar, Audrey, and Holden continued yesterday's tactics, using the wind wall as cover, and shooting the Harpies with guns on the ground."
"Dolly also wants to help this time, I will lend you the 'Iron Maiden', and then help you cast the 'Speed Spell' that has been strengthened by advanced spell delays, for the next two and a half hours, you only need to stop Shuttle through the air with the crystal steel tower, hitting all the harpies you see in front of your eyes."
"When you're tired from flying, land and replace Ms. Minnie's albatross with the 'Iron Maiden', and continue to lift off to execute the ramming tactics."
"Good! Good!" Dolly cheered excitedly.
Albatross nodded again and again, expressing that he would be happy to serve Master Mage.
"Joan, you lent the 'Iron Maiden' to these two birds, what do you use for yourself?" Hailaer asked in surprise.
"I have other things to do, but before that, I have to seek the assistance of Ms. Minnie." Joan looked down at the Queen of the Lilliputians, "Excuse me, what witchcraft have you mastered? "
"Dear Mr. Mage, I only know three elementary witchcraft, 'hypnosis', 'charm', and the useless 'gathering'." Minnie replied ashamedly.
"'Assembly' is useless?" Joan shook his head gently, "No, this is precisely the most useful witchcraft at present! We can use it to establish a 'Hag Assembly', not only can improve the spellcasting level of all assembly participants, You can also get a large number of 1st to 6th level 'gathering spell slots' for nothing, which can be used to deal with the harpies."
"Mr. Mage, your idea is very good, but I have to remind you that witches can join an existing assembly, but only hags can create an assembly. I don't know any hag friends!"
Minnie smiled wryly and spread her hands.
"It's okay, I happen to have a living sea hag here."
Joan took out the "demon collection bottle" from the storage bag and shook it at Minnie.
"Oh~~ I understand!" Holden slapped his thigh and shouted excitedly: "Joan! No wonder you put that ugly old witch in the bottle when you were in 'Banana Island'. I want to keep her and use her to start the hag gathering!"
"Wait first!" Minnie couldn't help interjecting, "Mr. Mage, even if you can force the sea hag to start the assembly, there must be at least three members in the assembly. Besides me and the sea hag, you have to find another hag or witch. "
"You don't have to worry about that." Joan scratched her head embarrassingly, "I can temporarily transform into a witch form to attend the hag gathering."
Now, not only Minnie was dubious, but even Hailaer and the Zion siblings who had the closest relationship with Joan had many small question marks in their minds.
"Joan, can you really become a witch? Why haven't I heard you say that before..." Audrey was full of doubts.
"That's what you said! It seems that during the time when we were not by your side, you made a lot of tricks again!" Hailar said angrily.
"That's a long story..."
Facing his companion's questioning, Joan had no choice but to explain. I briefly recounted my experience of being accidentally involved in the struggle between the boggard clan and the seven green hag sisters when I accompanied Medea Gauguin to the Baden Wetlands to look for the unicorn rabbit last summer.
It was through in-depth research on the blood samples of the green hag and the bog toad witch that he invented a set of techniques for pretending to be a witch and sneaking into the "hag assembly", which was just in handy at the moment.
