The sudden beastly roar was like an order. The originally violent and chaotic monsters in the base suddenly quieted down, as if it was a military order. Even their movements slowed down. ▲ 〃
This scene was very strange. Not only was the monster's behavior unexpected, but Yang Rui was also very puzzled as to how the monsters could transmit information in the Four Symbols Maze.
With the characteristics of the Four Symbols Maze, it was impossible to transmit information in the maze. The five senses, including vision and hearing, would be blinded. Only in this way could the Four Symbols Maze be effective. Even the strength of a special-class general would not be spared.
However, the roar at this time had broken this shackle, which was surprising.
"Lord Prefecture Overseer, this beast has either broken through the level of a famous historical general or has special attributes or skills. Otherwise, it would not be able to break through the restraints of the Four Symbols Maze so easily …"
While Yang Rui was puzzled, Guo Jia had already made a judgment.
At the same time, Yang Rui, Guo Jia, Zhang Ning, Gao Shun, and Xu You's gazes were also searching the monsters in the Colosseum, trying to find the beast.
In the previous stage, because the defense was relatively stable, Yang Rui did not send Zhang Ning, Gao Shun, Guo Jia, and Xu You into the battle. Instead, he hid them, ready to deal with all kinds of unexpected situations.
However, after the roar just now, the monsters in the base plane had become orderly. Coupled with the large number of monsters, it was difficult to distinguish which one it was.
And although the other party did not make any more sounds, the monsters in the base plane seemed to be under a unified command. The originally noisy monsters had begun to move together. They concentrated on the eight corridors leading to the second floor, slowly adjusting and attacking.
These monsters were in the process of adjusting their attack direction and posture. Their movements still looked a little jerky, contradictory, and uncoordinated. It was obvious that their five senses were not free from the restrictions of the Four Symbols Maze.
However, after some jerky movements, the monsters were able to achieve unity and successfully moved to the eight corridors. The originally chaotic situation in the Colosseum's base plane immediately changed, and the speed of the monsters entering the base plane also slowed down.
In the end, the central part of the base was empty. After all the monsters entered the 16 arches on the base of the Colosseum, they all gathered at the eight corridors in unison, forming a huge flower-shaped pattern.
The pressure on the defense of the eight corridors increased significantly. Compared to before, when the monsters were subconsciously squeezed to the entrance of the corridor, this time, the situation of the monsters was basically reversed. At least, their attacks were slowly becoming more effective.
"Bang bang!"
"Whoosh!"
"Buzz!"
"Poof! Puff … "
"Ying ying …"
“.....”
At this moment, regardless of whether it was the large scale Nation Destroyer, the long-range Archers, or the Javelins, all of them were still dealing strong damage. However, after the monsters were attacked, they were no longer as violent and mournful as before. Even if they received a fatal attack, they would only moan softly like a frightened puppy.
Ever since the previous roar, the monster horde's attack pattern had completely changed. Even the monsters were still restricted by the Four Symbols Maze. The pressure of the Beast Tide's attacks suddenly increased.
Fortunately, Yang Rui's defense system maintained its efficiency. In addition, the number of corridors leading to the upper level was limited. There were only eight corridors, so Yang Rui's troops were still able to suppress the Beast Tide's attack. As the monsters in the corridors were more concentrated, Yang Rui's defense team's killing efficiency increased by a lot.
Even so, Yang Rui's troops who were participating in the defense had used almost 80% of their strength. This was especially true for the eight corridors. Originally, most of the high-level Generals could take turns to rest, but now, more than half of them had no choice but to take action again to deal with the increasing number of monsters.
"Lord Prefecture Overseer, the Beast Tide's abnormal behavior can only mean that there are Chief-Tier monsters among the monsters who can see through the Four Symbols Maze. Moreover, they are able to transmit orders through special channels. However, from the behavior of the monsters, they are still unable to see through the Four Symbols Maze.
Guo Jia still has a set of formation flags called the Eight Gates Formation. Compared to the Four Symbols Maze, it is more complicated. If we set it up now, it should be effective against the monsters in front of us … "
Regarding the current situation, Guo Jia once again made a judgment and mentioned another formation — the Eight Gates Formation. Hearing this, Yang Rui's interest was immediately piqued.
The Eight Gates Formation had appeared many times in the Three Kingdoms. In comparison, the Nine Palaces Eight Trigrams Formation that Zhuge Wuhou had modified from the Eight Gates Formation was much more famous. It was usually called the Eight Trigrams Formation and was definitely the top formation in the Three Kingdoms.
However, as the predecessor and basis of the Eight Trigrams Formation, the Eight Gates Formation was definitely a formation that had reached the peak of perfection. The fact that Guo Jia could master it was enough to show how powerful it was. Just from this point alone, Guo Jia's value had been fully displayed.
"At this time, our formation is not in chaos and we still have the strength to defend. How about we observe for a while before making a decision?"
After a moment of excitement, Yang Rui didn't get Guo Jia to set up the Eight Gate Golden Lock Formation flag immediately. After all, this was only the beginning of the beast horde. The situation that they would encounter next might be even more dangerous. It wouldn't be too late to use the Eight Gate Golden Lock Formation as a trump card at a critical moment.
"Lord Prefecture Overseer, I think Guo Jia's Four Symbols Maze is not something that ordinary monsters can break. Even if a Leader level monster appears in the Beast Tide, it will not be easy to remove the influence of the Four Symbols Maze.
Therefore, Xu You also thought that the Leader level monster must have special senses and a way to transmit information. It is nothing more than sound, smell, illusion, and so on. Why don't we try to disturb the monster's senses for the time being?
The illusion is targeted by the Four Symbols Maze, so the possibility is not high. However, it is very likely to fall on the sound and smell. Lord Prefecture Overseer, have you smelled the musk coming from the base? Xu You thought that the smell appeared a little sudden, and it is very likely to be the channel for the Leader level monster to transmit information.
If we can't interfere with the monster's sound, we can try to think of a way from the smell … "
At this time, Xu You also said.
Maybe because it was a special time, this time his opinion was more consistent with Guo Jia's, and he also noticed some subtle changes, so he immediately reminded the people present.
After Xu You's analysis, Yang Rui also wrinkled his nose and sniffed. Sure enough, as Xu You said, the air began to be filled with a musket-like smell. Yang Rui suddenly realized.
"Distribute these A pint of incense and wine around the second floor of the Colosseum. If you see a signal flag, throw a jar down and follow my instructions …"
Thinking about it, Yang Rui took out a large amount of wine stored in the Sky City and ordered the Yellow Turban Soldiers to carry it around the second floor of the Colosseum.
If he had to choose a smell that could interfere with other smells, Yang Rui's best choice would be wine. The wine's volatilization and diffusion were excellent, and it could cover up the musk smell in the air. If it was really as Xu You said, that the Leader level monster transmitted information through smell, then the wine's smell should be very good to block this way.
"Throw!"
After the Yellow Turban Soldiers carried the wine around the second floor of the Colosseum, Yang Rui ordered to throw through the signal flag.
"Pa la … Pa la …"
“.....”
As the bottles of A pint of incense and wine were thrown down from the air, in the base where the monster group deliberately kept quiet, the sound of the bottles breaking suddenly came one after another. The wine spilled all over the ground, and the fragrance of the wine suddenly overflowed the entire Colosseum.
"Hmm …"
“.....”
Immediately after, the movements of the monsters in the entire colosseum paused. Many of the monsters once again barked in confusion. Their originally orderly moving bodies suddenly didn't know how to move. Immediately, the monsters in the colosseum began to crowd and trample on each other in several places …
Xu You was right, the Leader level monster really transmitted information through smell!
"Hmm …"
"Hmm …"
“.....”
As the fragrance of the wine spread further, the monsters in the base were once again in chaos. Due to the frequent accidental collisions and trampling, many monsters had begun to lose control of their emotions, and the sound of hissing began to rise again one after another.
"Awoo …"
At this time, a very long beastly roar sounded again, and the gradually chaotic situation of the monsters in the base was suddenly controlled, and this beastly roar should be made by the Leader level monster that had made the previous roar!
"Over there!"
As soon as the beastly roar of the monster leader was made, it was immediately captured by Yang Rui, Zhang Ning, Gao Shun, Guo Jia, and Xu You at the same time, and determined the position of the beast. It was not far from the arch in the middle of the east side of the Colosseum!
The moment the wine jars were tossed down, Yang Rui and the others had tacitly focused their attention on the monster horde. It could be said that the few of them were already prepared for the monster leader's voice, which was why they were able to accurately pinpoint its position.
"All the large tanks on the west side, chariots on the east side, and archers attack the east gate!"
"Bang! Bang … "
"Hum! Hum … "
"Whoosh whoosh …"
"Awoo! Awoo! Awoo … "
“.....”
With Yang Rui's order, nearly 20 large tanks, dozens of chariots, and a large number of archers concentrated the attack point near the east gate. A series of "cannonballs", javelins, and arrows fell, which immediately caused the monster leader to roar, so that the monsters in the base were suddenly in a mess!
