Actually, Lizzy's idea of breaking the formation had already been thought of by the Fishmen. They had been using the cube formation for many years, so how could they not know about its weakness? The four sides were the pillars of the formation, so how could they not pay attention to it?
In the past, there were people who wanted to use this method to break the cube formation. However, it didn't take long before the Fishmen found a way to deal with it. This method was actually very simple. It was to gather a group of elite soldiers in the four sides of the formation. This way, the four sides wouldn't be easily broken. Then they invented a defensive formation called the Regiment Formation.
This circle formation was actually the formation that Adam was currently using. With the commander in the formation as the center, it formed a constantly spinning sphere. This sphere spun forward and backward, just like a crisscrossing grinder. Anyone who entered this formation would be ground to pieces.
In addition to these two methods, this method of breaking the formation also had a shortcoming. It had high requirements for the commanding of the four squads. Their actions must be fast, and they must be unified. The requirements for the formation were also very strict. This was because once the four squads were sent out, flaws would appear in the four sides of the formation. This would easily cause the formation to become chaotic. Because of this, people gradually stopped using this method of breaking the formation. At the same time, the Fishmen still used the cube formation as their main method of fighting.
Although the Regiment Formation was a very good defensive formation, it was also very good for defending against enemies coming from all sides. However, when it came to frontal assaults, its defensive capabilities were inferior to the Vortex Formation. Moreover, it was also very disadvantageous for counterattacking. Because of this, the Regiment Formation wasn't the best choice for defense. It can be said that this method of breaking the formation had been eliminated by the Fishmen.
Naturally, Lizzy and the others didn't know about this. However, they didn't need to worry about the formation being disrupted. After all, they were commanding undead.
However, with Adam's Regiment Formation, Zhao Hai's attack was in vain. Although this Regiment Formation wasn't very good in offense, it was still very good in defense. This was especially true for dealing with small attacks. The four undead that Zhao Hai sent out were quickly crushed.
Zhao Hai wasn't anxious. He just ordered the undead to retreat and form a new cube formation before slowly retreating.
At this time, Adam didn't dare to pursue. He was almost scared to death just now. Adam didn't think that Zhao Hai would actually use this method to break the formation. One must know that this method hadn't been used by the Fishmen for many years. If it weren't for the fact that Adam's subordinates were elites, then they would have been in great danger this time.
Adam couldn't understand what the other party was trying to do. The other party was obviously using undead. Even if these undead were to die, the other party could still make more. However, the other party was commanding the undead as if they were an army. Moreover, as soon as they suffered some losses, they would immediately retreat. This wasn't the style of a Dark Mage.
Adam and the other Sea Dragons have been in contact with the Dragons for a long time. Because of this, they had a certain understanding of Dark Mages. They were very clear that when a Dark Mage attacks, they would command a lot of undead. However, they wouldn't be in a battle formation. Instead, they would just let the undead rush forward like a swarm of bees. This way, the Dark Mage would be able to save a lot of mana and spiritual force.
When a Dark Mage commands the undead, they would also need a lot of mana. However, they would also need a lot of spiritual force. If the undead were to attack in a battle formation, then the consumption of mana and spiritual force would be even greater. Because of this, most Dark Mages wouldn't let the undead attack in a battle formation.
However, Zhao Hai didn't do this today. Instead, he had the undead in a battle formation. This made Adam puzzled, and at the same time, he was also afraid of Zhao Hai.
At this point, Adam was almost certain that the person who came was Zhao Hai. This was because if the other party was a team of Dark Mages, then it would be impossible for them to have such exquisite control over the undead. Not only could they change their battle formation, but they could also make arrangements for their defense. This wasn't something that a team of Dark Mages could do.
One person could command the undead according to their own ideas. However, if there were a lot of people, then it wouldn't be possible. After all, it was impossible to find dozens of Dark Mages with the same strength. Dark Mages had different strengths, so when they commanded, there would be slight mistakes. And these slight mistakes could be fatal to a battle formation. Because of this, only one person could control the undead to form such an exquisite battle formation.
The reason why Adam dared to say this was because the undead weren't people, and Dark Mages weren't professional soldiers. The most terrifying thing about them on the battlefield were the undead. Regarding battle formations, there weren't many Dark Mages who knew how to use them. All of their energy was used in magic. Learning battle formations? That was impossible.
Most importantly, it was impossible for an undead army to have middle or lower ranked officers. The quality of the middle or lower ranked officers would affect the fighting strength of the army. Some good middle or lower ranked officers would be able to detect subtle changes in the battlefield and make appropriate adjustments. They would also be able to command their own army and follow the orders of the general. This was something that only people who could think could do.
However, the undead couldn't. The undead didn't think, they only knew how to fight. Because of this, if a Dark Mage were to cooperate with them, then they wouldn't be able to form a battle formation. It would be better to let them rush forward like a swarm of bees.
Because he was sure that the one in command was Zhao Hai, Adam was even more afraid. Zhao Hai being able to command the undead to this degree was something that Adam didn't expect. At this time, Adam felt that he wasn't fighting a Dark Mage, nor an undead. Instead, he was fighting an elite army under the command of an astute general.
Although Adam was able to defend against the other party's attack, his losses weren't small. Especially when the other party broke the formation, it almost took Adam's life. Because of this, after Zhao Hai retreated, Adam immediately made adjustments. The battle formation changed back to the magic square formation. However, the four sides of the formation were guarded by elite tribes. At the same time, the entire formation could be changed at any time.
Although Adam was very careful, he was still worried. Not because of anything else, but because of his physical strength!
His army was made up of Fishmen, and Fishmen were Humans. It was impossible for them to keep fighting like the undead, their bodies wouldn't be able to keep up.
At this time, Adam was worried about the physical strength of his army. After two battles, some of the weaker races in his army were already running out of strength. If they kept fighting like this, then it would be very dangerous.
Adam didn't understand what Zhao Hai wanted to do today. Why did he come? Does he want to use more than a million undead to repel him? How is that possible? Was Zhao Hai that arrogant?
Zhao Hai was currently inside the Blade Scale Whale's Space. Lizzy's expression was ugly as she said, "Big Brother Hai, it seems like the other party already knows about this method of breaking the formation. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to react this quickly."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Right, these people reacted very quickly. It seems like the Fishmen have also used this method to break formations before. However, I'm not sure why they didn't use it this time."
Lizzy sighed and said, "It seems like I failed this time. I didn't expect to use a formation that had been used before. What a failure."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "That's not necessarily the case. Although this formation seems to have been used by others, it doesn't mean that you can't use it. Moreover, the other party rarely uses this formation. This shows that this formation must have its flaws. Lizzy, if you can correct these flaws, then wouldn't this formation be unique to you?" Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "You're right.
Lizzy thought for a moment before she nodded and said, "This formation does indeed have a lot of shortcomings. I'll try to improve it. What's next? Megan, you do it. "
At this time, Cai 'er's voice was suddenly heard, "Young Master, I found something interesting. Do you want to take a look?"
Zhao Hai stared, then he nodded and said, "Alright, let's take a look." As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Cai 'er change the image on the monitor, and the image of the Dragon Palace appeared on the screen.
Zhao Hai, Laura, and the others were shocked by this scene. They didn't think that there would be such a place, such a big coral reef. It was amazing that these people were able to move it.
However, it didn't take long for them to discover that the monitor was slowly zooming in. It was clear that Cai 'er didn't want them to see the Dragon Palace, but the things inside it.
Zhao Hai and the others were still quite far from the Dragon Palace. They couldn't see the Dragon Palace with their eyes. Even if they were to use the monitor, they could only see the Dragon Palace from afar.
As Cai 'er zoomed in, several people appeared on the screen. When Zhao Hai saw these people, he couldn't help but stare. He hadn't seen Sea Dragons before, but he had heard about them from Luo Luo.
The reason why the Sea Dragons wore blue clothes was because their clothes were actually transformed from their scales. Because of this, unless it was a special case, the Sea Dragons' clothes would be the same color as their scales after they turned into Dragons.
Because of this, when Zhao Hai saw Alex wearing blue clothes, he was certain that this person was a Sea Dragon. Moreover, his status shouldn't be low. This was because the Sea Dragons around him seemed to be taking him as their core.
