No matter what a general's goal was on the battlefield, he couldn't just have one kind of preparation. However, he couldn't just have one kind of preparation and leave no room for maneuver.
The gray dwarf was very concerned about his identity as a general, and a stable and meticulous view of the battlefield was his most basic tactical thinking.
Therefore, how could he only have one kind of preparation and not have any other backup plans left on the battlefield?
Well, the main energy source would only need 30 seconds to be destroyed by the Metalstone people. Even if this kid in front of him had some way to delay it, it didn't matter.
Because the other team of soldiers was very close to the secondary energy source. In the children's general chess, although the player could only use one unit at a time, if the main energy source was blocked, then the team with long-range attack capabilities would start to attack the secondary energy source at all costs.
In addition, the gray dwarf would also order the other units to attack freely. This was the authority of the player. Because they didn't need to specifically command them, it didn't count as using the command authority. Of course, they could let the units move freely.
Although these units without a commander would act stupid and have no tactics, they had an instinct, and that was to kill the enemy they encountered. This was to reduce Lancaster's units from the side.
With three pronged attacks, how was Lancaster going to break through?
The gray dwarf's mind kept calculating. No matter how it calculated, there was no possibility of it losing!
The gray dwarves moved, and so did Lancaster.
His actions seemed so incomprehensible. Beside him were extremely weak, low-level soldiers who were as weak as chicken ribs.
The exploding eggs they produced were like a joke in the eyes of the gray dwarf. The damage was limited, and the preparation time was long … In fact, weren't these units useless on the battlefield?
At this time, the low-level soldiers had already prepared their exploding eggs. They had already prepared these before the Gray Dwarves stopped the battle.
The gray dwarf didn't pay attention to this because they were definitely not the ones who could complete the rescue.
However, Lancaster released the precious command authority to these low-level units, and they were enveloped by the command halo.
Although the gray dwarf didn't quite understand, he stared at these low-level units. How was this human kid going to turn the tables?
But what these low-level soldiers did next almost made the gray dwarf laugh out loud.
They threw the exploding eggs in their hands not at the enemy, nor did they attack any energy source. In fact, they couldn't attack anything!
The exploding eggs they threw were aimed at a place that had no strategic purpose at all. At least that was how the gray dwarves saw it.
When these eggs gathered together, they still had a certain amount of power. The loud explosion set off waves of air, and then what?
The gray dwarf was already grinning, barely managing to make an ugly smile! Yes, and then what to do?
But soon, its smile froze on its face because the airwaves stirred up by these explosions affected the human boy who was the chess player. This human boy was actually sent flying by the airwaves!
It couldn't be helped. Even though commanding the battlefield was a serious matter, an even more obvious smile appeared on the gray dwarf's face!
Is there anything funnier than this? Was this the way this human brat said he wanted to turn the situation around and win? Could it be that he was so flustered that he even made a mistake in his command, causing the low-level soldier to throw the exploding egg in the wrong direction?
Hahaha, it's so funny.
But perhaps they shouldn't ridicule this human brat like that, because in the previous games, he had also been very calm. When the water comes, we use the earth to block, and when soldiers come, we use the general to block. Even though he was passive, his deployment was still orderly, and he didn't make any strategic mistakes!
So, his current behavior was suicide? A way to not want to admit defeat even if he died?
The gray dwarf could only think that way, even though this matter was so, so funny.
However, in less than two seconds, the gray dwarf could no longer laugh because it found that Lancaster, who was lifted by the airwaves, was flying in its direction.
This … The gray dwarf's eyes immediately changed. As a general who was proud of his wisdom, he suddenly thought of a possibility.
When this possibility appeared in his mind, the gray dwarf subconsciously glanced at the battlefield. In fact, he was very clear about the situation on this battlefield. Taking another look would only deepen the despair.
There was no other way! No solution!
When these two words appeared in the gray dwarf's mind, Lancaster had already landed in front of the gray dwarf.
He couldn't care less about erasing the damage caused by the explosion. Instead, he pulled out the somewhat strangely shaped weapon at his waist …
The gray dwarf shouted and immediately stood up from the command chair to run.
However, its body proportion was so strange, with short arms and legs, it was destined to not be able to run much.
The weapon in Lancaster's hand, which looked like a stick, a sword, and a short gun, suddenly extended, and the gray dwarf was swept to the ground by Lancaster's stick.
Then, the front of the weapon split open, and the tip of the weapon immediately popped out. Lancaster's movement was elegant, and the gray dwarf's entire body was lifted up.
"I actually know how to use many kinds of weapons, and I'm quite good at them." As Lancaster spoke, his movements didn't stop. He had already leaped up and approached the gray dwarf floating in the void.
The weapon became shorter and folded again, forming a T-shaped stick. Lancaster gripped the stick tightly, and the stick stuck to Lancaster's arm, while Lancaster's arm slammed into the gray dwarf's head.
With a bang, the gray dwarf's head obviously caved in.
"Because I'm from a noble family, and a top noble family at that. I don't care about the glory that the family itself places on me, because the glory is the family's, not mine. But I care about how to maintain the family's glory. " Lancaster let go, held one end of the T-shaped stick, and swung it gently. The stick straightened, but it folded again, and a long blade popped out from one end of the stick, turning into a weapon that looked like a Tang knife.
The tip of the knife was pressed against the gray dwarf's neck.
"So, I learned everything, including the use of all kinds of weapons. And I had to learn well! Then, I had such a strange weapon. No one else has seen it, because there's no need to show too much. " As he spoke, Lancaster moved the tip of the knife, and a deep wound appeared on the gray dwarf's neck.
Red blood gushed out, but the gray dwarf wasn't dead yet. It tried to breathe, but the blood that rushed back immediately clogged its throat, and all it could do was cough.
"You're the first person to see my weapon because I haven't had a good fight yet. It's a pity … If I really fight, I'll be bullying someone who has no fighting power at all. " Lancaster's hand rested on the back of the knife, and with a bang, he broke off the Tang knife's blade. Another blade popped out from the stick, and then extended, wrapping around the Tang knife's blade. The slender Tang knife became a thick, thick knife.
"Time's almost up, I'll kill you cleanly."
"I can tell you one thing, from the beginning, from your reaction to the backlash, I've already decided on my strategy! My target has been you from beginning to end. "As he spoke, Lancaster's thick knife fell heavily.
The gray dwarf's head flew up, and at that moment, all the enemies that attacked him immediately stopped moving and disappeared into the void.
Universe Child Level Shogi — Lancaster won.
After completing all this, Lancaster let out a heavy sigh of relief. His face did not reveal any expression of joy. Instead, his expression was calm.
He put away his strange weapon and hung it on his waist again, but he muttered, "If it was him, would he have won faster?"
The "him" that Lancaster mentioned was undoubtedly Tang Ling!
At the beginning of the duel, Lancaster had observed his opponent's troops and felt a little hopeless.
Lancaster could have done a better job when it came to dispatching people back and forth, but so what? The probability of him losing was too high.
At this moment, Lancaster didn't know why. Of all places, she thought of Tang Ling! In his eyes, Tang Ling was not a legend, but even so, the proud Lancaster had to admit that Tang Ling was smarter than him, at least for now.
Just like what Lancaster said himself, he was a person who was not stingy with his studies. He went through all the information about Tang Ling and summarized all of Tang Ling's victories. Aside from the surface, he realized that Tang Ling was a person who paid attention to the details and would even use them to his advantage.
When he thought of this, Lancaster finally saw the light of victory.
Since the Nirvana Giant Pagoda was meant to sharpen a person, it wouldn't use a hopeless situation to sharpen a person. Wouldn't that be the same as killing a person? What was the point?
The key to victory must be hidden in the details. Lancaster started to observe and realized that the gray dwarf was pitifully weak. As for what his key to victory was, the smart Lancaster understood it right away.
Therefore, he chose to go back and forth in the duel in an orderly manner to conceal his strategic goal.
On top of that, the sacrifice of his troops would cause a backlash, and the backlash was a force that acted on his body, so there would definitely be a backlash.
Lancaster's troops were many but weak. Each time he suffered a backlash, he would pretend to be unsteady on his feet. He would step back, roll over, or … In short, he would approach his opponent in the most natural way possible.
Of course, when he reached a certain level, his opponent would be alarmed.
Therefore, Lancaster's final trump card was the low-level troops that could explode eggs.
Everything was so seamless as if everything had been arranged beforehand. When one found the right path, one would realize that the Nirvana Giant Pagoda's arrangements for one already contained the answer.
Of course, it was Lancaster's own wisdom, but he still felt like Tang Ling was secretly guiding him.
Nevertheless, it did not matter. Through learning, he could turn Tang Ling's knowledge into his own. Was that not a good thing?
The corners of Lancaster's lips curled into a smile as he disappeared into the void.
Hell difficulty level 7 of the Nirvana Giant Pagoda was cleared by Lancaster.
**
The flames in the Silver Wing noble's hand were like a string of beautiful musical notes as he played them one after another.
Once a melody was played, it would always surround the person within a certain range. The same went for the flames in front of him. No matter how hard he tried to dodge them, they would always surround him.
These flames were different from the so-called tracking flames that the Silver Wings created. They seemed to have a certain spirituality and could be dodged, but so what? They were able to track Tang Ling even without being controlled by anyone.
They were real musical notes. Before the melody ended, they would always be there. One could not block them unless one left the space or blocked one's ears.
However, could one leave the space? It was obviously not possible!
Under the illumination of the icy blue moonlight that was as hot as the sun, this strange place was enveloped in the music of death of flames.
It was obvious that the melody could not be avoided by blocking one's ears. The only way to block the melody of death was to collide it with the flames and make it disappear.
Was it difficult for Tang Ling, who had started to understand fire? On the surface, it was not difficult at all because he had already chosen the same method in the first stage, which was to clash with Akaka's Fire Arrow.
But in reality? It was difficult!
Tang Ling's previous battles with the Silver Wings were all in the cave. There was a strange silver liquid in the cave that nurtured fire and the mysterious fire energy filled the entire cave. Tang Ling was propelled by the rich fire energy to reach the seventh and a half level of the Nirvana Giant Pagoda in Hell difficulty.
However, there was no cave and no silver liquid.
Everything was as Tang Ling expected. When he ran into the high officer, the cave was getting closer to the surface and when he ran into the noble, he was already on the surface.
What kind of place was this? It was hard to describe.
Everything had a gloomy presence. There was withered yellow grass with leaves that looked like fishing nets. There were also pale yellow trees with rocky trunks and red flowers growing on the branches.
Other than that, there were also floating rocks in the sky. They were of different sizes and looked like shadows.
None of them contained any fire energy. Under the icy blue moonlight, they formed a picture that Tang Ling was completely unfamiliar with.
Given Tang Ling's intelligence, he knew that regardless of the environment or even the world, everything would not be rootless, just like how a place without fire energy could not produce fire.
Therefore, the source of fire in this place should come from the scorching moon in the sky, if it could even be called a moon.
However, what was the point of all this? When Tang Ling first came into contact with fire, his own fire energy was very weak.
Although it grew stronger through the repeated battles, there was a limit to how strong it was. It could only support five fireballs.
Yes, it was five times stronger, but it was still just five fireballs. Tang Ling needed the replenishment from the outside world, but the replenishment from the outside world was … Tang Ling had no idea how to resonate with the fire energy from the moon!
After realizing it, Tang Ling could only dodge and keep dodging because theoretically speaking, he only had a maximum of nine chances to attack! Including his own five chances and the fact that he could activate the hand seals to absorb the fire energy from the outside world …
Indeed, even activating the hand seals became difficult. The endless death music that was everywhere limited the time that Tang Ling could squeeze out.
So, where was Tang Ling's enemy?
It was actually on top of a giant rock floating in the sky. It looked elegant and it was wearing a suit similar to the planet with long white sleeves like a blooming flower.
Compared to the Silver Wings, it was definitely handsome. Yes, it was handsome with perfect proportions, which made it even more pleasing to the eye.
The most special thing about it was its wings. They were no longer the wings of an insect but a pair of wings similar to a bird's, but they were not as elegant as the angel's wings in human legends.
The feathers on the wings were black and there were silver runes on them. They were also more complicated than the silver runes on the wings of the Silver Wings that Tang Ling had encountered before.
From the beginning until the end, it did not even look at Tang Ling. The moment Tang Ling stepped into the forest, it sat on the giant rock stool and gracefully played the instrument that looked like a piano.
The sound that the instrument produced was strange. It sounded like a human's groan and the tune that it played was not pleasant. At least, it was not something that the people from Tang Ling's world could appreciate. It sounded like a long cry that came one after another.
However, none of that was the main point. The main point was that when the melody started, flowers of fire appeared around Tang Ling one after another and started to swirl endlessly around him.
Bang! Tang Ling crashed into the strange tree trunk. Using the micro-sensing technique consumed a lot of his energy, and the micro-sensing technique was also passive against the spiritual fire because it was endless. Therefore, after dodging the first time, he would have to dodge again.
What else could Tang Ling do? Two minutes later, he would also be in an awkward position.
He had already wasted one chance to attack, and the result of his experiment was that the fire would cancel each other out. It was like covering one's ears.
Unfortunately, the opponent's flames were at his fingertips along with the music. Didn't he only have eight more chances to attack? How could he fight it?
With that in mind, Tang Ling used the reaction force of the strange tree to jump away from the place.
Right after he left, a series of flames landed on the strange tree, leaving black scorch marks on it. The flames then whistled and chased after Tang Ling again.
Release the war seed? Kill it?
Tang Ling's breath started to get unstable. The thought popped up in his mind, but he quickly rejected it.
It was meaningless! Besides, going back to the Hell difficulty level would cost a lot. The number of Dream Coins was not fixed and would be deducted according to the ratio.
More importantly, if he chose the easy way, how could he train himself?
Two minutes later, Tang Ling had familiarized himself with the terrain and had a general understanding of the enemy's attack pattern.
However, the environment did not help him at all. The Nirvana Tower was ruthless as it took away all the factors that benefited him.
The answers contained within were things that he could use, such as the mysterious moon. At least, he could not use it in the current level.
So, what could he use to help him?
Tang Ling was thinking as he dodged the attacks.
It was at that moment that the Silver Winged noble who had been playing in the sky finally looked at Tang Ling. "Huh?" he exclaimed in surprise.
"Reptile, so you're still so strong and alive?" Its voice was very cold. It seemed like calling Tang Ling a worm was not an insult, but it really thought that Tang Ling was a worm.
"Why can't I be alive?" Tang Ling looked at the Silver Wing noble, but in fact, he was staring at the strange instrument in the noble's hand.
What was the answer? It was the first time Tang Ling saw the Silver Wing using a so-called weapon. Could the answer be in the weapon?
Tang Ling's Precise Instinct was able to see through the energy waves, but he did not notice anything special about the energy waves that enveloped the Silver Wing noble's weapon. All that surrounded the weapon was the noble's flame energy waves.
Is there a problem? Tang Ling dodged the flame attacks again. It was difficult for him to come up with a conclusion.
However, at this moment, the Silver Wing aristocrat seemed to have lost his patience. He said, "I've wasted two minutes on a reptile. The game should be over."
As he spoke, his hands landed heavily on the keyboard of the weapon. The sobbing tune intensified as though it was a continuous, sorrowful sobbing that made one agitated turned into wails one after another.
Tang Ling was agitated as he listened to the song, but the others who were as agitated as him were the unquenchable flames that surrounded him.
When the flames got close to Tang Ling, they exploded! It made dodging even more difficult.
Other than that, every time a flame exploded, two new flames would appear and chase after Tang Ling.
"Do you have to make me feel despair?" Tang Ling was a little depressed. Was the Hell Mode of the Nirvana Tower this hard? Extinguishing something that you were just familiar with was like extinguishing the hope that rose in your heart. Then, you would be caught unprepared and have to face an even harder challenge that you were completely unfamiliar with.
What was the turning point? What was the correct answer to the puzzle? There must be a turning point, but what was it?
Tang Ling would never give up. He stared at the Silver Wing noble who was playing the instrument that belonged to it. Since he dared not simply deny whether the instrument was the key or not, he decided to observe it carefully again.
More and more flames surrounded Tang Ling. Even with microsensing, he could not dodge the wall of flames that almost formed a wall. Moreover, the flames could even explode!
Tang Ling was inevitably injured and it was a terrifying burn wound, but at that very moment, he finally found a very subtle difference in his weapon!
