Chapter 162 The source of the legend (4)
George said: "Are you sure?"
Dark said: "Now the opportunity is once a lifetime, how can you know if you don't try it. By the way, I found that those blue slimes do not discharge each other and keep a distance; but when they get close to the red, they discharge violently, and there is no distance limit. Do you know what's going on?"
"Thunder Slime is divided into red and blue colors, and is likely to carry positive and negative charges of attributes, repel the same attributes, and attract different attributes. Do you want to make a fuss about this?"
"I have a plan, but I need to quit first."
"Tell me, look."
"Thunder Slime survives by absorbing lightning magic energy. It can use the flash-attacking rod and lightning protection net to arrange the lightning-attacking magic array to "carry them in captivity". Yes, captivity. Seeing that, the red slime on my body has become as big as a millstone, enough to split and make things worse, but it still lay on my back and did not let go. It seems that it has treated me as a long-term meal ticket. It does not let go of the magic energy of the Faraday worm. A fixed thunder-attacking magic array that can constantly attract lightning must have its appetite."
“Beautiful idea!”
After being recognized by George, Dark was greatly encouraged and continued: "We can build magic circles on a movable platform, and control the intensity of their discharge by adjusting the distance between red and blue slimes. Of course, these precious magic energy will not be used to attack each other, but will be absorbed by materials designed between them, which are more powerfully absorbing lightning, such as the 'superconductor' you just mentioned. Usually, they are charged with naturally generated lightning, and if they cannot accommodate them, they are stored with capacitance slimes; if they are in emergency situations, they will be discharged violently. George, George?"
George smiled and said, "It's nothing, shook God. Dark, from today on, your thinking has reached the level of an ordinary alchemist."
"Is that true, there is only a way of thinking?"
"Ha, greed is not enough. How many days have you been exposed to alchemy? But, thinking is the most important, OK, Captain, give the order."
Dak said in the team chat: "Isabella, I am very safe now. You quickly return to the psychic tower to assist Enya and Sherna in defense; Enya, you are working hard to produce flash rods and lightning protection nets, five in groups, with a distance of about 100 meters between groups; Sherna, you stick with it for a while, and when George and I go back, you can go back to the Monkey Camp!"
The three girls replied at the same time: "I understand!"
Dark told George in a private chat: "I just took a look at some interesting things in the core area of the swamp."
"What?"
"A twisted metal tower, like a tree with a crooked upper half, divided into nine branches. Each branch has a metal totem pole with some symbols on it. The symbols are very similar to the words I saw in the ruins of Gutnotiran."
"The words? Very good. Pass them to Enya. She is an expert."
"There has never been a Hydera here. I doubt that this tower is the so-called Hydera? Because of the barriers between hot steam and lightning, ordinary people cannot get close to it, so the legend of Hydera appears because of rumors?"
"It's hard to say, we need to analyze it."
"Do we still have time? Although Thunder Slime has obtained it, if the Giant Monkey Camp cannot hold on, we can only escape back to Tnotiran and prepare to fight a total war with Kuruma."
"Don't worry, just received the news that Yupanki and Ramos had safely retreated to the hillside. These two guys were quite capable of fighting and even overthrew the No. 2 figure of the mercenary gang."
Dake shook his head: "They fought for nearly three days, and the giant monkey was killed and injured. It was already the limit. How long can they last?"
"I said that there are still two cards that have not been played. The two reinforcements have arrived."
"oh?"
When Dark and George were quickly rushing back to the psychic tower, the bloody battle at the Giant Monkey Camp was about to come to an end.
Yupanki and Ramos were already scarred and exhausted.
As the sharpest, most ferocious and most flexible tactical part of the defensive power, they brought the combination of warriors and alchemists to the extreme, and there were at least 200 mercenaries who died under their assaults and traps. Naturally, they also suffered the most blows.
Yupanki's refined broad-edged sword broke his mouth, and Ramos also drained all the alchemy potions. The last time the solidifier bonded the two's waists and legs to the rocks, they didn't even have the strength to stand.
Behind them were the remaining giant monkey warriors, only a dozen left, each of which was covered with scars from swords and axes, and some were still bleeding out.
Further to the highest point of the hillside is the dim totem pole conversion array. There are more than fifty giant monkeys in the array, all of whom are old, weak, sick and disabled. Some of them are young, and their big black eyes are full of fear.
Under the hillside, five or six hundred mercenaries set up their formations and were ready to face the battle; behind them, thousands of warriors in red armor were slowly rushing towards the hillside.
These red-armored warriors were the Sipitotek Legion Expeditionary Force, one of the four major legions of Atlas, and were the vanguard of the Kuruman expedition.
A mercenary walked slowly with his hands raised, indicating that he was not hostile. Under the gaze of both sides, he quickly built a simple amplification magic array on the hillside, and then raised his hands and retreated.
Yu Panji sneered: "I want to persuade me to surrender?"
Ramos was not as good as Yupanki, so he was too lazy to say anything, and his mouth twitched and made a sarcastic expression.
The other party walked out three people, a deputy mercenary commander, an Atlas legion commander and an interpreter. The translator Yupanki and Ramos knew each other, and they were the messengers who came a few days ago.
The commander of the Atlas Legion spoke first: "Yupanki, and this unknown mage, don't resist meaninglessly anymore. You are humans, not monkeys, why should you save your lives for a group of monkeys?"
Yupanki sneered: "You are humans, not maggots, why do you want to show your eyes to the traitor and scum who are as disgusting as flies?"
"Surrender, or die!"
Ramos said in the team chat: "Yupanki, procrastinate, procrastinate... and hope... Dak and the others... are coming soon, and they are coming soon."
Yupanki held back his anger and gritted his teeth and said, "I am an Atlas soldier. His Majesty the Emperor has been controlled by Kuruma. I am loyal to His Highness, so it is natural! Why do you betray me!"
The commander of the legion laughed. The deputy commander of the mercenary on the side laughed and said, "This is the first time I have seen such a pedantic guy. Your prince has become a monkey and will soon lose his life. We are human beings, people who want to be rich and prosperous. I say this, can you understand? The monkey must die. By the way, let me tell you one more thing, His Majesty Kuruma has agreed that all the mercenaries who participated in the extermination of the giant monkey can be converted into the regular army of Atlas, maintain their freedom, and receive an extra military salary, what can your monkey prince give us?"
Yu Panki's eyes dimmed, and he was silent for a moment. He raised his head angrily, stared at the commander of the legion and said, "I can't die like a dog! I want to choose a glorious duel!"
Glorious duel is a tradition of the Atlas army. When one side on the battlefield loses but does not want to be a prisoner, you can choose Glorious duel. If you lose, you can defeat three soldiers on the winning side in a row, you can choose to end your life decently by committing suicide.
"Of course," the commander of the Legion agreed happily, "The Warriors should have a decent death. Time is tight, so there is no need to worry about it. It's just the three of us, but the translator will be the last one, after all, it's a civil service."
Yu Panji smiled and said, "You are quite humane."
Ramos said in the team chat: "Yupanki, is it okay?"
"If you die, you must use bones to get their knife stuck! No problem!"
The translator quit: "Your Excellency the Legion Commander and the Deputy Commander, you two are too low-key. You have also been on the battlefield and killed more than a dozen enemies."
"Oh?" The two of them suddenly became interested, "I really can't tell where have you fought?"
"The people of Dorand are the people of whom I have the honor of following Lord Clemson to fight the Alabo people. In the next battle in the city of Jelualem, the situation is critical. From documents to chefs, they are also in charge of the battle. They are also in charge of the communication array operators, killing the twelve enemies, not many of which makes the two laugh."
The two of them all changed their faces: "Who are you?"
"I'm named Cook, the former communication array operator of the First Regiment of the Knights of Doland. Now, with my former partner, I accept the commission from Master George, and traveled all the way from Doland to protect the prince who turned into a monkey. I will hire a free mercenary next time, so I must remember to have eyes. Two, be enlightened!"
