Chapter 58 Magic Crystal
Some people say: War is a logistics battle. To put it more bluntly, war is a money battle.
Some people also say: War is about intelligence. Knowing yourself and your enemy is the most important thing.
No matter which one is right, let us ignore these views for the time being.
Because since entering the swamp, Roger knew very well that he had no advantage in both logistics and intelligence.
As creatures, Roger, Mum and the alchemy druid elders all need to eat, drink, defecate, urinate and sleep. Although elemental creatures do not need these, Roger, as the commander, is obviously not as strong as the undead creatures in terms of endurance.
No matter how well Roger prepared the logistics, in this regard, no force dared to say that he could compare with the undead forces in logistics. The undead did not need logistics at all!
What's more, this swamp is still the other party's territory. The other party, who has the advantage of geographical advantages, is obviously more convenient for logistics than Roger and his party who came from afar.
Roger, who broke into the territory of the undead, was actually completely at a disadvantage in terms of intelligence.
Although he sent out all the thunder element and the storm element, the flame element, the ice element and the rock element were also constantly exploring, the undead forces, which had the advantage of geographical advantage, crushed Roger in terms of intelligence since the beginning.
Unlike the Elemental Legion, which almost gained nothing, the Elemental Legion's biggest gain was that the flame element exploded several skeletons responsible for reconnaissance when it threw fireballs everywhere.
And Roger had been opening the [Eye of True Knowledge] along the way, he had already discovered more than a dozen "sentries" arranged by the undead.
If the skeleton soldiers who had not hung in the swamp could be considered sentinels.
Roger said that he was really eye-opening along this path.
For example, the ones that were sunk into the swamp and buried were only a skeleton soldier hanging from the tree. The burning soul fire in the skeleton was obviously not fake.
The ghost who also hid in the swamp pretended to be a water ghost, the bats that had been hiding in the hollow dead tree trunk, fell in the mud pond, and the zombies pretended to be floating corpses...
Wherever you pass along the way, there are almost everywhere sentries of the undead forces!
Roger really felt that he had learned several things from the undead. Next time he went back, he would try hiding the earth element underground and hiding the water element in the water to be responsible for reconnaissance.
Since the undead forces knew Roger's Elemental Legion from the very beginning, Roger simply moved forward with great fanfare.
Not to mention the thunder element and storm element flying all over the sky, the flame element that threw fireballs everywhere was the main force! With the help of the fog, the ghostly soldiers who tried to approach Roger were directly beaten down by all the flame elements that threw fireballs everywhere. The movie emperor zombie pretending to be a floating corpse staring at this side with big eyes was also blown away by Roger's unceremonious orders.
Walking vigorously through the depths of the swamp, the rock elements flattened all the pits that seemed to be formed naturally. The ice elements were frozen out of a way. In addition, the flying air elements and the flame elements that threw fireballs, Roger walked forward for two days as if he was afraid that the undead would not know that he was coming.
Then he suddenly stopped.
Then the reason why Mum felt uncomfortable (in fact, if there wasn't, Roger was ready to stop), and Roger asked the Elemental Legion to forcefully clean up a place that was absolutely "clean".
All the dead trees, swamps, mud ponds, and all the undead creatures hidden nearby were cleaned up by Roger.
After ensuring that the army was stationed, Roger began to prepare dinner at all without the "eyes" of the undead in this large area.
The air elements are quietly waiting for the guests to come.
The enemy troops who had been acting heavily under their noses suddenly became quiet and hid in the fog that he could not "see". Roger did not believe that the undead could wait steadily.
The ghost doesn't know if Roger will do any small moves.
If it were Roger, Roger would not be so calm and quietly waiting for the enemy to appear again.
However, when the crow appeared, Roger, who had been eating curry, kept bowing his head and almost whispered.
Is there any more obvious hint than this when a lively crow suddenly appeared in a dead swamp?
Roger almost sighed to the sky: He also prepared many small means to detect the "quiet" enemy scouts, but the other party ran over so carelessly.
Roger, who was worried that this might be a trap, was not really relieved until the Air Element quietly followed the crow back to the place suspected to be the enemy's nest.
Although the enemy was too stupid to make Roger feel inexplicably disappointed, it would be worthy of Roger's misfortune to discover an enemy's stronghold and to regain his intelligence disadvantages.
After putting aside his consideration of this, Roger noticed that the curry rice on his hand was almost cold, and then he started to have dinner in big mouthfuls.
Due to the overflowing power of the undead, there were not even a living thing in this place, let alone little insects. So everyone, including Roger, had a rare sleep.
After all, although there are shifts to rest, how can I rest well on the moving rock elements? In fact, even Roger is very tired, but he just holds it over.
In the middle of the night, Tuna quietly stood up.
Mum, who was in the same tent, slept very heavily and did not notice any movement of Tuna.
As if worried that the sound of wearing armor would attract the attention of others, Tuna did not put on the heavy armor again, but instead went out of the tent in her thin pajamas.
The surrounding rock elements responsible for the alert did not express any expression of Tuna's movements. After all, Tuna is now their immediate boss. Of course, even if not, Tuna, as a hero of earth element, can completely ignore these fifth-level rock elements.
However, other elements responsible for peripheral patrols and air alerts did not respond to Tuna who left the camp, which made Tuna a little confused.
Obviously, Roger did not seem to be guarding against Tuna, which made Tuna very puzzled.
After all, in the eyes of Elemental Life, the human race has always been known for its cunning, not to mention that the elemental hero Wendy of Wind is quite inconsistent with Roger.
Shaking his head, Tuna left the camp without thinking much.
At the same time Tuna left, Roger also closed the system map and scratched his head in confusion, feeling quite puzzled by Tuna's actions.
In fact, among the four elemental heroes, Roger is most relieved to be Tuna. After all, in the mouth of Mum who has frequent contact with Tuna, Tuna is obviously the kind of "honest" elemental hero.
Just like those hard-working earth elements.
The night passed quickly. In the middle of the night, the undead forces did not seem to know that they had been exposed, and did not have the idea of sneak attacks at night. They just sent some ghost troops to try to approach the camp.
However, the flame elements and ice elements had cleared the fog in advance in the scope of the temporary camp, and created a reserved area without fog outward. At the edge of this range, the ice elements and flame elements surrounded the entire camp, trying their best to keep the small camp without much toxic fog.
In this case, all the ghost creatures who tried to pretend to be "lost" and "mistaken into the camp were shot down directly by the perceived thunder element.
The argument that there is a ghost in Roger's hometown is actually plasma. Is this argument correct? However, the ghost-like soldiers who left the fog were indeed knocked down by the Thunder Element's martyr flame element and the ice element in one step.
After nearly ten ghostly soldiers were eliminated, the undead forces no longer tried to send ghostly soldiers to invade the camp.
And near the early morning, Tuna, who was out, also came back.
Under the prompt from the system, Roger quickly put on his clothes in advance and waited at the outside of the camp. He was quite surprised to see that Tuna, who was ragged, was carrying a piece of crystal on her shoulders and came back slowly.
That was a special magic crystal.
To be honest, Roger was quite moved at this moment.
Just because he wanted crystals, Tuna ran alone to bring the entire magic crystal she found to him. How could he not touch him?
But soon Roger's face became awkward, and his eyes were dodging and he didn't dare to put them on Tuna's body.
The reason is very simple. Tuna may have encountered an attack from the undead forces when she went out, and it is obvious that it is impossible for the magic crystal to be surrounded by those who are attracted by the magic power of the crystal, such as the protection of monsters or lost alchemy troops.
Tuna must have gone through a series of fierce battles, and her pajamas were so torn to the point where she could not have the effect of covering her body.
To be honest, if Tuna, with her white face and her tattered pajamas, had some blood stains, she would have thought Tuna as a dead soul at first glance.
Unlike Wendy, who is charged, Gonis with high temperature and Konia with a body close to zero, Tuna, who is closer to the temperature of the human body and does not have those special effects that "include" can wear ordinary clothes.
At this moment, Tuna's pajamas should have been given to her by Mum. The originally quite exquisite silk pajamas are now completely turned into a piece of rag.
However, Tuna, who was exposed everywhere, obviously didn't understand how tempting she looked now, just tilted her head and looked at Roger, whose ears were red.
Although he has become a humanoid and has learned about the daily behavioral norms of humanoid creatures through contact with Mum, it is obvious that Tuna has not yet fully adapted to her new identity.
At a glance, she knew that she didn't feel that there was anything wrong with her almost not wearing clothes. After all, when did Elemental Life wear clothes?
His eyes swept over Tuna's face, and Roger, who saw the conspicuous gem and remembered the hero of Tuna's earth element, could only helplessly take over the magic crystal in Tuna's hand.
When he thought that Tuna was actually an earth element and her body was as hard as steel, Roger suddenly lost all his extra thoughts. He did not have the stupid idea of using his body to try to challenge the strength of steel. He was not sad!
As a result, Roger, who was not in a stable manner, made the magic crystal fall to the ground. The magic crystal is much heavier than Roger imagined. It is completely unavailable for ordinary people to move. It is really hard to violate Tuna's actions and carried this thing back all the way.
Without overestimating one's own ability, Roger took out the Hero Certificate. Seeing the Magic Certificate turned into countless light spots and being absorbed by the Hero Certificate, Roger was in a very happy mood as he glanced at the "Curse +1" prompted on the system panel.
Seeing Roger's smile, Tuna smiled softly.
After getting the magic crystal, Roger took Tuna to his tent, and Tuna followed Roger into his room without any doubt. Mobile phone users should visit http://m.piaotian.net
