Chapter 227: Fighting in the Air
The battle between the two sides immediately entered the most intense and fierce state.
Because there is no buffering space or room for anything.
In general, in traditional wars, even if it is a decisive heavy cavalry charge, the forces directly connected by the enemy sides cannot be the sum of all forces, at most they are only a part of it. If it is a melee, the complete investment of the reserve team is equivalent to a desperate bet, and if it loses the formation and depth, it will be close to failure.
But with the emergence of the revolutionary ability of "flying", everything changed.
The Lord of Light just glanced down from the air and locked in the positions of almost all the Imperial Army.
Due to Midi's advance arrangement, these positions were extremely scattered. Even inside a hundred-man team, it was a formation like a scattered sand. If it was attacked with lasers, the efficiency would be extremely poor. Although I noticed Midi's little thoughts, the arrogance of the City Lord of Light was naturally too lazy to clean up the ants in his eyes.
However, if he doesn't do this, some expellers can do it.
In just a few minutes, more than 200 expellers fell from the sky like a meteor shower, and then spread out in all directions. They did not land on the ground, but launched suppressive attacks directly from the air. Even melee-type expellers drew out standard steel longbows and shot them like raindrops.
The Imperial Army was immediately suppressed and could not raise its head at all.
Fortunately, Midi had already expected this situation and prepared several ways to counterattack.
It is naturally impossible for the vanguard boat to be handed over to the Imperial Army for use. If you take a step back, even if you hand it over to them, there will be no pilot available. You can only be knocked down like a target, or even fall on your own.
What Midi taught these imperial troops was the method of dealing with monsters in the air that was passed down among adventurers in the sea of the sky in the previous life - pulling.
Setting the traction machine on the ground rock, then firing a barb with a special nail gun, pulling the expeller out of the air, and then rushing up. It is a very simple combat method, but it is very effective.
After all, the expeller is not the Lord of Light. Although he can fly, his attack range is not far. Whether it is a longbow, heavy crossbow or magic, it needs to be approached before it can be used. In terms of range, the expeller is not even as good as a pioneer boat. At least, bombs can be dropped from a height of hundreds of meters, and the range of the Green cannon is at least one hundred meters, which is extremely safe.
Of course, this "pull" method has many disadvantages.
Just shooting a barb can be cut off by the expelled person in a blink of an eye. Many must be hung at the same time to pull down the target.
In addition, Midi can't control how to fight after pulling it down. Obviously, even an expeller who fell to the ground was still a powerful person who was awakened and could not be dealt with by one, and it was not so easy.
But no matter what, at least, the Imperial Army had the means of confrontation, which in a short period of time was enough for both sides to stalemate, thus freeing up time and space for Midi.
In the final analysis, where the balance of victory tilts depends only on the battle between Midi and the Lord of Light
These two weights are so large that any other factor can only add icing on the cake rather than a decisive sound.
At this moment, the battle situation on Midi's side was very unsatisfactory.
He is being suppressed by the Lord of Light.
After the first random laser light was blocked by Midi, the Lord of Light finally realized that the human, whom he once regarded as an ant, had awakened before he knew it, and his strength had increased by no means a little or two.
This made Seghart, who had always been extremely arrogant, feel extremely angry.
As the perfect creation of the Tyrannosaurus King Bakar, he actually let this ant escape? Not only that, the guy actually woke up directly under his nose?
This was a provocation that Segerhart could not bear, a shame that he could not wash away, so he felt angry, extreme anger, which was more directed at himself than to Midie.
The only solution is naturally to erase Midi directly from this world, and even the slag cannot be left.
The firepower density of the Lord of Light suddenly increased to an extremely terrifying level.
A huge ball of light condensed between his hands, and then his hands suddenly closed. In the next moment, hundreds of blue fire snakes spitting out of the ball of light rushed out, shooting at Midi like a raft of arrows.
The attacks like rain in the sky are dazzling and even more creepy.
The bright blue flame slashed through the air and quickly weaved a huge net in the air. Not only that, the net was not still, but alive. It would capture and lock Midie's position, and then adjust the size and density of the mesh at any time, obviously to trap the prey in it and then strangle it with one blow.
If Midi had not understood the secret skills, he might have been forced into a desperate situation like this.
Fortunately, he immediately used the secret technique "Flying Sword Dance" obtained by awakening. The dragon sword in his body roared, and the human and sword were united, turning into golden red sword lights and flying into the sky and the earth, interspersing out from the gaps of the blue net again and again. From time to time, he would come up and go, directly cutting off several mesh wires made of blue fire.
Amid the sky blue flames, a rainbow light shuttled back and forth. Although it seemed to be self-protection, its advantages and disadvantages were clear at a glance.
Simply put, Midi has no awakening-level long-range attack methods at all.
For the ghost swordsman who originally focused on melee combat, this is a natural constraint.
Although the Asura series among the ghost swordsmen has long-range attack methods such as "Explosion Flame Wave Sword" and "Ice Blade Wave Sword", those are not instantaneous, but require a certain amount of time to gather demons. At the same time, they must lock the target through perception of the aura. As a large-scale killing on the battlefield, it is the first choice, and it can even perform miraculous effects in naval battles, but in the single battle between the strong, this is no longer on the table.
A fire-exploding bead shot over, even if it was driven by the extraordinary awakening force, the speed was still too slow, and it was impossible to hit an opponent of the level of the Lord of Light.
The awakening secret technique "Flying Sword Dance" seems to have no flaws, and the combination of human and sword is extremely powerful, but in the final analysis, it is essentially a standard melee skill.
The man and sword were united, flying in the sky and hiding in the earth, and the final hit was the sharp sword in Midi and his hand.
If you directly confront the laser of the City Lord of Light with golden red light, it would be equivalent to Midi himself directly going to Seghart's muzzle. Although the laser can be suppressed, Midi's consumption is even greater. Even the magic power of the white crystal will eventually dry up.
At that time, if you can't even fly, it's like a living target on the ground.
So, what Midi can do now is to avoid it at a certain distance.
He could not get close to the Lord of Light, who was fully fired in his rage, but he could not stay away from this airspace, and he could not attack the expellers. Otherwise, once the Lord of Light was freed up his hand, the speed of killing the Imperial Army would definitely be much faster than Midi's halving of the expellers.
Soldiers are against soldiers, generals are against generals, kings are against kings.
On this white-hot battlefield, there are not many tactics, it is the most direct collision before several levels of power. If one link is missing, it will immediately collapse.
If there is any comfort in this situation where absolute firepower is suppressed, it is that this undesirable situation, at least it is within the range of Midie's prediction.
But soon, the balance of victory began to tilt further with an irresistible momentum.
The Imperial Army, which used barbs to attack the air, was no match for the expeller after all, and was gradually showing signs of collapse.
At the same time, the magic power of the City Lord of Light seemed endless, but it was further strengthened at this time.
In addition to one azure blue fire snake after another, he also drew out a gap to attack with direct lasers, and occasionally threw out one or two powerful locking light balls, causing huge shock waves in the air to try to slow down Midie's speed.
The golden red light was constantly passing through, and Midi was constantly dodging. The sharp laser light fell from the sky, swept across the entire suspended city, and engraved huge zigzag patterns on the ground. The rain of fire fell from the sky turned the ground into a hell of lava tumbling, and the scorching heat flow spread everywhere, swallowing all the objects that could be touched. The emerald green forest soon became stained in the fiery red ocean and then slowly began to sink.
Is it too late?
Midie calculated with a little anxiety in her heart.
If you delay like this, when the Imperial Army completely collapses, the expellers who have freed up their hands will undoubtedly turn around and deal with them immediately.
Although it is unlikely that the Lord of Light's arrogance will be able to fight one more, if the expellers are allowed to surround Midie and force Midie to fight head-on, the result will still be unimaginable.
But, even if you take out the last trump card now, how much chance of winning can you have in such a situation of hiding and hiding?
Wait a little longer
In Midi's dark eyes, the ripples gradually calmed down and returned to peace.
If he was a commander who would immediately show his trump card when he encountered a problem, even as a reborn person, he would have died on the ever-changing battlefield. How could he not be able to reach this point today?
Since the plan has been made, we have to continue waiting until the last moment
One minute, then another minute, then another minute.
Every minute is as long as a century, every second, the warriors die, and every moment, the barely maintained front is trembling.
If the golden red light of Midie's incarnation was still flying stubbornly in the sky, if Reinhardt was still commanding on the front line, even the war-torn imperial soldiers would have been thrown away at this time.
But in the end, they finally persevered.
Just as everyone was about to run out of oil, a strong light shot into the air, then another, followed by the third and fourth...
Chapter completed!
