Elite Mages’ Academy Chapter 241: The beginning of the battle (2)
"These orcs are really fierce!" Xiao Lin shook his head and sighed, and then closed his eyes, letting his eyes that were always looking into the distance through the farsighted scroll slightly relaxed.
Han Manman was a little uncomfortable with his pessimism, and slightly sneered: "You are scared at this level?"
Fame also understood Xiao Lin’s concerns. Originally, the external defense was basically carried out under him and Xiao Lin’s support. He was also worried and said, “Because of the rush of time, we actually didn’t arrange too much. Traps, unfortunately, more than 80% of the traps were exhausted just now."
Han Manman stunned and retorted: "But we also killed nearly 400 wolf cavalry, and the materials for these traps were only taken from their own warehouses, and we didn't have any loss at all! "
Xiao Lin smiled bitterly, he couldn’t directly mock the woman’s strategic vision, and explained: “But don’t forget our strategic purpose is to hold on to this fortress as much as possible and not let the enemy regain them. Supply depot, this is equivalent to inserting a nail in their logistics line to contain the main force attacking our Dawn City. This is the mission background. According to my vision, I actually hoped to use those traps and cooperate with long-range attacks to suppress , It will hold the orcs for at least a week."
"Those wolf cavalry, they are deliberately using their bodies to open the way to help follow-up infantry to clear the trap! The army that is not afraid of death is the most difficult to deal with!" Fame seemed to sigh with emotion.
After the orc army used the sacrifice of the wolf cavalry to clear their traps basically, but the fortress still had zero losses. It seemed that the orcs had suffered huge losses, but Xiao Lin and a few others were not happy about it. The orcs are trading their lives for time, and they have lost four hundred people. But what Xiao Lin lost here was a whole week!
After that, the orc infantry began to slowly press up, and more than three thousand orc infantry formations were fully deployed without any tactics. In this way, he attacked directly from the front.
Xiao Lin looked back suddenly as if he was aware of it. The location of the fortress was not very good. In the front is the plain, and in the back is adjacent to the endless sea. The silver-white fleet seems to be a little closer to the coast, but it still just stays there quietly, as if it is really just a soy sauce traveler.
But Xiao Lin suddenly woke up. He suddenly understood that whether this fleet really came from the elves, their purpose might not be to join this war. But to cut off their back!
If Xiao Lin and the others have the plan to retreat, it will definitely not work to break through the encirclement frontally. The most likely way is to go by sea. The orcs want to kill them all!
There is more confusion in Xiao Lin's heart. There are too many things that don't make sense. According to his understanding, the Elf race should be a lazy race that is indisputable in the world, and the relationship between the Elf race and the Orc race is not bad. , But it is definitely not a friend, and it is even more impossible to fight together, not to mention that Dawn Academy has never offended the elves in the sky in this historical period.
"The orcs are coming up!" The fame seemed to see his distraction. A reminder sentence in a low voice.
Xiao Lin shook his head, putting a lot of confusion behind him, and secretly admonishing himself that he should focus on how to defend. Gu Xiaoyue's affairs made him not allow any accidents in this exam. Even if the orcs and the elves really secretly sign any contract, it is something that has passed in history after all. This is just a mock exam.
"My spell tower will help defend, and the fort will be handed over to you!" Xiao Linhe fame asked, and hurriedly left the fort, his actions made the other squad leaders a little dumbfounded.
The defensive tower was built on the hillside outside the fortress. It was also considered that the fortress itself was not very large, not to mention that the fortress itself was not very strong. If you really have to face the siege at the beginning, it is difficult to guarantee how long you can hold on.
These defensive towers require manual operation. In other words, they must assign some people to the tower. This task makes many people complain. Everyone could tell that once these orcs attacked, the guarding tower would definitely die first, although from a strategic point of view, this was the best way to delay the orcs.
The acting monitors are in a dilemma. In order to establish majesty in their respective classes, they all hope that their orders can be strictly enforced, but if it is such a high-mortality task, they find it difficult to speak, even I think it is likely to incur resentment from others.
Although the academy has given them the authority and title of monitor, it is not a day or two to develop the upper class. Obviously, these people who are used to being petty citizens on the earth face this kind of choice. , Many people are in an awkward situation.
Xiao Lin can be regarded as giving everyone a head. He took the initiative to walk out of the fortress and boarded the defensive tower with hundreds of pairs of surprised or surprised eyes on the city head~IndoMTL.com~ The defensive tower is divided into arrow towers and There were two types of magic towers, and the one he climbed was naturally the magic tower. After all, Xiao Lin had no confidence in his archery.
Many acting monitors are quite upset, especially when they see other students’ unabashed admiration in their eyes, they become even more disgusted with Xiao Lin. It’s not that they haven’t thought about going into battle in person, but first of all, they always have The concern is that if they die early and affect the evaluation, it may be directly related to the selection of the final grade leader. No matter how friendly they usually behave, it is impossible to be completely undesirable after all.
There are more important reasons. Many people are not suitable for boarding defensive towers. For example, in pure melee combat, going to the defensive tower is just a waste.
But Xiao Lin didn't have their worries, or after listening to Gu Xiaoyue's plea on the beach, he had put aside all the messy worries.
The grade leader counts as a fart, whether it is the exchange point, the credits, or even the official squad leader's seat, in Xiao Lin's mind at this moment, all of these are not as important as Gu Xiaoyue's life.
That's why Xiao Lin could walk out of the fortress gate without hesitation. Although some people, such as Wang Dalin, said that Xiao Lin had done it deliberately for everyone, and satirized him for being too hypocritical.
But at least most of the students secretly gave a thumbs up to Xiao Lin, while the people in Class 7 recognized this squad leader even more, and responded unceremoniously to Wang Dalin's irony: "Instead of talking coldly here, Why don't you go out and show you the hypocrisy?"
This unexpected effect is not within Xiao Lin’s consideration. After climbing on the defensive tower, Xiao Lin checked the device of the tower and said it was a defensive tower. Of course, it wasn’t just for people to climb up and just pull it. It's as simple as shooting an arrow with a bow, or swinging a staff to release a spell. (To be continued.)
