above the sky

Chapter 648 Can Terra's prophet also predict the apocalypse?

Said to lead the team, but in fact only Qingchao accompanied him, Scott stayed behind to command, and Adbert, who was aliased as Guying, went to the alchemy workshop with Ian's warrant.

In a sense, Adbert can be regarded as a left-behind defender. Although he cannot use the power of the dead king, if the enemy really invades Laian City, with him, he will definitely be able to block or even secretly destroy those enemies.

——You thought you raided the laboratory?

Wrong!You raided a small warp labyrinth guarded by a dead king!

The speed of the sublimator is very fast.

Not long after, Ian and Qing Chao arrived around Guyan Peak.

It was autumn, and the sky around Guyan Peak was full of dark clouds.

And on the high ground around the mouth of Guyan Peak, you can overlook a large camp of mountain people from a distance.

After all, Ian has been to this area and is quite familiar with the terrain.

At the same time, for future development and to confirm the movement of the rebellious mountain people, he would send several teams of spies here to observe the situation every day.

But even so, with the terrain of the Baisen Mountains, a week's inspection cannot find all the hidden passages-the troops of the rebel mountain people walked out of a hidden mountain gorge, which was originally a river, but in It dried up after a big storm six years ago and is now lush.

Because there are sublimators in this world, it is very easy to detect, but anti-reconnaissance has also evolved. The young man is now manipulating the water mist to blur the figures of the two people, so that he can climb to the top of the mountain without being discovered.

They began to observe the situation.

The mountain people's camp is built on a platform on the mountainside of Guyan Peak. The gray rocks seem to have metal components and are extremely strong.

This place is difficult to destroy, and it is condescending, so you can observe the surrounding situation. Most importantly, it will not be like the flat land below the mountain gorge, which is easily blown up by people with explosives to block the lake or bury it in the valley.

This is actually the strategy Ian originally wanted to use—in fact, he sent people to clean up the flat land on purpose. If the leader of the mountain people is really so stupid, let alone 1000 people, even 1 Thousands of people have to be buried.

But obviously the mountain people are not that stupid to see the danger in that place.

The mountain camp is roughly divided into three parts, each of which is relatively independent, and it can be seen that they belong to different chiefs.

What made Ian vigilant was that each camp was built very solidly, with prowling beasts guarding the gates and patrolling hunters on the periphery.

Very formal - this is a trainee unit trained by flameland instructors!

That is, Ian has the Ring of Silence and the Phantom of Water Mist, and the other second energy levels are close, and they will definitely be discovered.

And in the center of the camp, there are three armored machines.It is already a small team.

Even with Feiyan's assistance, this amount is obviously too much. Ian is sure that the main force of the rebellious mountain people has already arrived here.

"Warcraft, armor, and elite hunter troops."

Qing Chao also saw all this, and the blue-haired swordsman frowned: "Boss, this is not ordinary—according to your old friend of the Dragon Sect, three of the five chiefs of the Midra Autonomous Region have come to Here it is."

"Ah."

Ian observed carefully, he counted in detail, and then nodded slightly: "350 four people, 31 trained beasts, three armors, five monsters, and the most core three second-level sublimators."

"Fortunately, there aren't that many." He breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought it was the enemy's entire army coming over, as long as it wasn't a big army pressing down, we could still fight."

"But it's still troublesome."

"That's not much?" Qing Chao opened his eyes wide, and he looked at Ian: "Boss, this time the enemy also has armor, so it's not that easy to deal with it?"

"Among other things, those five monsters are enough for me..." He muttered to himself, apparently already thinking about how to distribute the enemies and who was responsible for destroying which enemies.

With Qingchao's self-knowledge and professional compatibility, he felt that it might be the best choice to deal with the five monsters by himself.

"I won't let you fight five monsters. In fact, it's just a volley. I'll show you the power of the new weapon when I return to Laian City."

Ian shook his head, Qing Chao had never seen the power of a charging rifle and his own armor, that's why he had this wrong association.

He explained: "The main reason is that there are too many enemies, and our firepower projection cannot destroy the enemy's forwards in the first place-as long as the enemy does not collapse, they will definitely be able to rush into our position."

"So the most troublesome thing is that these soldiers are trained... They don't collapse so easily, even with fear potion."

Especially the potion of fear is good for a small group of people. With a large number of people and a large area, Ian can't make so many potions.

"So."

At this moment, Qing Chao was also thinking about how to attack the enemy, he frowned: "Boss, is it possible to set up a few cannons to knock down the platform where they are?"

"Rock structures are not so easy to collapse."

Ian shook his head: "Let's see if we shoot high and destroy the enemy, or the other party condescends and shoots all our artillery a few kilometers away."

That Qing Chao didn't move either - he was just a swordsman, and his greatest resourcefulness was to use the terrain to destroy the enemy.

Ian was different.

He raised his head and looked at the dark clouds in the sky.

The leaden gray sky was extremely gloomy, and the sky was covered with darkness.

A faint rumble from within the black cloud gave him inspiration.

"The location is not good...but the weather is fine."

The young man muttered to himself: "Fortunately, the Nanling side is cloudy and rainy - there is still room for manipulation."

Ian suddenly smiled: "Not bad. The time is mine!"

——It seems that he, the prophet, has a serious apocalypse forecast!
Qingchao didn't understand what Ian was saying, but he could understand that Ian had already figured out a solution—the other party was like this, whether it was in the South China Sea Labyrinth or at other times, he could always come up with a solution to the crisis .

The two investigated for a while, and through the tribal coat of arms, race differences and behavior habits, they determined that the people who came here were the 'Iron Dust Department', 'Snake Rock Department' and 'Zhenzhou Department'.They are all well-known among the mountain people, and it is said that they all hold part of the inheritance of the mountain people's heyday.

And their supplies were sent from a trail down the mountain... a hidden route, but they couldn't hide it from Ian, who had a silver chip and a vision of vision.

After confirming that they had investigated all the information, the two returned to Laian City.

Even at the speed of a sublimator, it was already late at night when they came back, but Scott and Adalbert were waiting for their return—even Amber, the bald craftsman, was there, and his face was full of surprises. excited.

"how?"

The others are just fine, Amber actually waited for him here in the middle of the night without sleeping, Ian felt that he didn't...

Yes, it has such a great charm.But clearly, now is not the time to play glamour.

"grown ups!"

Amber came over excitedly, and he pointed in the direction of Adalbert: "This...Mr. Guying, where is the expert?!"

"It only took him one afternoon to solve the problem of the high-energy crop cultivation base that has plagued our alchemy workshop for two years!"

"what?"

Ian really didn't expect such a good thing - he turned his head and looked at Yadbert, the dead king who pretended to be a white man with his white hair and white skin, scratched his cheek shyly: " I just encountered a similar problem, so I tried to answer it..."

"Mr. Amber is also smart!" He emphasized: "Among all the people I have met, Mr. Amber is also very studious and quick to understand!"

"I'm not surprised." Ian glanced at Amber. This person who has no political literacy and technical thinking can still be the head of the workshop, which is enough to prove that he is skilled.

The technical problem of high-energy crop culture medium has obviously troubled Amber for a long time. Adbert solved it when he first arrived. He was not jealous, only ecstatic, and grateful for what he had learned—this kind of mentality is not something ordinary people can have. .

Ian turned his head and looked at Adalbert: "I'm rather strange, Guying, you don't study this aspect, do you?"

"A little bit, a little bit."

Alberto said humbly.He does understand a little, because his main job is biological alchemy and psionic alchemy, but the projects he is responsible for are related to too many things, so at present, in a rural place like Laian, he can be an all-around genius to use.

Amber reported to Ian the latest progress of the magnetic storm armor: Now the magnetic storm armor can be put into actual combat, and the mutual assistance function between the magnetic storm armor and the magnetic storm coil has also been initially completed with the help of Lan Dian.

After reporting this, the bald mechanic happily continued to work in the workshop.

Ian also knew why the other party was bald.

For the Terrans, who theoretically don't lose their hair due to male hormones, there must be a reason for their natural baldness.

After Amber left, Ian's team held a small meeting.

"Only three groups came. The armies of the other two tribes should be on Elder Manya's side. Of course, there are more than five rebellious mountain people, and the ones who came to our side can be regarded as the main force."

Ian spread out the map, pointed to the direction of Lai'an Territory and Qigang Mountain, and said, "The rebel mountain people must not gather all their troops to attack us. This armored troop advance is probably the first wave of their strongest momentum. As long as the only wave of offensive is blocked and their vitality is wiped out, the rebel mountain people will not have the strength to attack us again before next spring."

"grown ups."

Scott is very serious. He is frowning at this moment, looking at the map and the intelligence report: "According to the information you have explored, the mountain people have more than 1000 troops this time, three armored units, and more than 110 troops. Elite mountain hunters... and we, counting the White People's Guard, the mercenaries I brought, and the mercenaries from Nauman City, there are a total of more than [-] people."

"And there is only one armor."

"The number of enemies is more than ten times that of ours. The military strength and equipment are not at the same level. Even if we succeed in defending Lai'an City... I guess it will be a bitter victory." He summed it up like a defeatist strategist, almost Say 'Our army must be defeated! 'This is the key word.

"Indeed. Our military strength is a huge disadvantage."

Ian didn't refute, because what Scott said was true—but at this moment, he looked out the window, where he could see the magnetic storm coil in the north of the city.

The boy smiled and said: "But the equipment is not necessarily the case. Especially the armor. With the assistance of the city defense facilities, my Cyclops is not a problem to single out three ordinary fifth-generation armors."

"Not to mention, "Our more than 100 people are all professional mercenaries and guard members. After being armed, their combat effectiveness must be far superior to those of ordinary mountain people.Even trained mountain hunters cannot beat us in terms of simple weapons and equipment. "

"so."

Ian said so, and he raised his hand: "What we want to think about is how to solve the disadvantages in manpower - forming a small team to cut off their supplies is the first point, weakening the endurance of the mountain people."

"And more importantly, we must learn to rely on 'sky' to fight."

"sky?"

Everyone was stunned, even Qing Chao, who had heard Ian say this word before, felt a little puzzled: "Boss, what the hell are you talking about... What do you mean?"

"Weather. And luck."

Ian simply explained: "In fact, the weather can actually be manipulated... I don't know, have you heard of 'artificial rainfall'?"

"I've heard it..."

Adelbert was considered the most well-informed among the countrymen present. When Scott and Qing Chao were stunned for a while, he nodded thoughtfully: "But, he can manipulate the celestial phenomena and arouse the spirits of nature." Can change the field, manipulate nature to attack—isn’t this the power of etheric weapons and third-level powerhouses?”

"Moreover, you must be a strong man of a specific inheritance to do it!"

"Yes. But it's definitely not just that."

Ian shook his head slightly. He believed that Terra definitely had the technology to carry out artificial rainfall, but I am afraid that the technology of artificially changing the celestial phenomenon of these pre-epoch civilizations would be weaponized, or sublimated and inherited. In short, it has nothing to do with ordinary people. .

Just as the imperial capital itself is a huge weather regulator, but no one has ever thought of replicating a small imperial capital with only weather adjustment functions in other places to serve the public.

So much so that, for people like Yadbert, artificial rainfall has already been equated with third-level powerhouses and weather weapons.

This is indeed the direction that Ian may develop, but technology definitely has more than one direction.

"Creating rain is actually very simple."

Ian explained to everyone present: "Depending on the weather conditions, it can be achieved by putting in different catalysts. For example, dry ice and silver iodide are used in cold weather, and salt powder or calcium chloride is used in hot weather... In short, during the recent period It's going to rain, and we must guarantee that on the day when the rebel mountain people attack Lai'an City, it will definitely rain around Lai'an City."

"Not just rain, but heavy rain!"

Hearing this, even Qing Chao, who had the lowest level of knowledge, understood it. He suddenly patted his thigh: "I see! Boss, you want to be like Viscount Grant, and create a source of water that is beneficial to you." The place to play, and then blow up those mountain people sublimators?"

"But won't it be a bit difficult? Rainy days do have a boost for water system sublimators, but it's not that big..."

Ian raised his hand, signaling Qing Chao to stop talking.He made up his mind to let the other party read more books.

"Yeah, water can conduct electricity... that's why!"

It’s not long since Qingchao came to Leian, and he had never seen magnetic storm coils and magnetic storm armor, but Scott fully understood it. He opened his eyes and said excitedly: “So, as long as it rains at the right time, more than 1000 An enemy is not a big deal at all!"

"Yes. And it doesn't have to be just rain...if the conditions are perfect."

Ian smiled and looked around at the excited crowd: "We can still send down thunder!"
