Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 640 642. Bad thing?

 “Push forward! Keep pushing forward!”

Lan En shouted, and the knights following him became high-spirited.

The cavalry regiment of more than 60 people suffered an appalling battle loss ratio in this battle, and this ratio is still rising, with no sign of stopping!

 Because no one has been left behind so far, and they have penetrated ten Nilfgaardian positions in a row!

“The two [honeycombs] on the left are ready to be released!”

Lincoln assumed command after Lane broke the line.

Lan En is originally a master of alchemy. During this period of time, although it was too late to upgrade the combat effectiveness of his followers, they were more engaged in organizational discussions and striving for progress in tactics and coordination.

But things like witcher bombs and sword oil, which are readily available and have no threshold, he still made a large number of them from local materials.

 The cost of these things is certainly not cheap in a peaceful and orderly area. Because even the jungles and wilderness are forest lands owned by nobles, and you have to pay taxes if you want to go in to collect or hunt.

 But in today's Cintra, regardless of whether it is Lan En or "Ember", they can get whatever they need.

So you can now see that a wedge-shaped formation of more than sixty knights dug directly into the Nilfgaardian line along the crack.

 Then two sparkling bombs were thrown into a group of people who were still resisting. There were two explosions of "bang bang", and the resistance disappeared.

[Honeycomb] is an alchemical bomb that can cause fragmentation damage. Although it does limited damage to enemy A, on a rapidly changing battlefield, stunning the enemy for a short while is enough to achieve one's strategic goals.

 The cavalry, who had lost their strong resistance, ran over directly from the front line!

 Another position was directly penetrated!

The remaining Nilfgaardian soldiers who have lost their commanders and warlocks are now like headless flies, and they have been crushed by the "embers" again, and even their basic structures have been lost.

 Soldiers who have lost their organizational structure are equivalent to losing their threat on the battlefield, even if there is a strong man among this group of soldiers who suddenly emerges at this time. It would take him a long time to reorganize the team, and there was no way for the warlock to communicate with the higher-ups.

 The purpose of Lan En and the "Embers" has never been to annihilate how many ordinary soldiers, but to eliminate the enemy's structure and organization.

　　After penetrating the Nilfgaardian position, Lan panted slightly and stopped on a hill.

Behind him, the "Embers" panted louder, the horses' nostrils opened wide, and puffs of hot white smoke came out.

“The enemy’s resistance has become stronger. It’s only now that we are reacting? This is a bit too slow.”

Lan En drank a bottle of [Swallow] as a supplement, and the Embers also took out the nutritional supplements that he specially prepared for ordinary people during this period, and shared them with the war horses.

While eating, Lincoln gasped and asked: "The position just now did last longer than the previous one. What does this mean, sir?"

“It means they finally noticed that someone was cleaning up their network nodes. Although the response speed was a bit slow.”

Lan En didn't know that telepathy could transmit the pain and fear of death. It took Fringilla a full forty minutes to recover from the near-death experience and be able to cast spells, of which four minutes were spent just to regain consciousness.

“So,” Lincoln continued hesitantly, “should this be considered a bad thing?”

 “Bad thing?” Lan En turned to look at him with a smile and said no more.

And in Nilfgaard's command post, the staff officers were walking back and forth like ants on a hot pot. The clerk passed stacks of paper information back and forth.

Fringilla, who was standing in the center of the camp, was also temporarily given new rules of conduct at this time. She must break the link from time to time to avoid being overwhelmed by telepathic transmissions from other warlocks when they die.

Since discovering that the fear and pain of death can only be felt when connected and will not remain in the network, Menno Kuhorn immediately formulated this rule.

The establishment of the Warlock communication network took less than a day. With continuous use, a set of usage guidelines are also being continuously improved.

"Stop him! Move the 4th and 3rd Cavalry Corps into position! We must build a line of defense and surround them inside!"

"How did he lock his position? Hasn't it been determined before that the function of magic items can offset his supernatural search ability?"

"Immediately! Everyone check their magic equipment! We must determine which person's equipment has failed!"

In order to ensure that there are no problems in this large-scale battle, although Lan En, who can be restrained, is no longer valued, everyone in this command post still carries a variety of magic equipment.

 Lane of Cintra, [Hunter Lord].

This name originally only caused a stir among Nilfgaard's top commanders. Until it was confirmed that the warlock could delay and restrain him, almost everyone didn't care much about it.

 But now, ten positions have been broken through in forty minutes!

 The commanders and supporting warlocks on each position were killed. What is this? !

 “Suck~”

A gasping sound came from Fringilla's mouth in the middle of the tent.

The beautiful, noble and boldly dressed sorceress makes an imaginative sound. This should be an ambiguous scene.

 But now, every man in the camp only feels cold in his heart.

Fringilla opened her frightened eyes and looked up to see the marshal already waiting in front of her.

The supreme commander of the army group in front of her stared at her intently.

"Your expression means that the eleventh position has been breached. The eleventh warlock and commander have been killed. So you'd better tell me that you saw how they died! It was those warlocks who didn't react. Did it lead to being killed, or is that **** [Hunter Lord] not afraid of you at all?!"

 He looked like he wanted to kill someone.

Hence, Fringilla Vigo wisely answered him in a calm and concise tone.

"I saw it and disconnected it before death. He used the magic-blocking golden bomb. [Hunter Lord] was very fast. The warlock was killed before he could react. He had clearly avoided magic before. attack."

Those people were killed because their combat skills were not good enough. The enemy was still afraid of magic attacks and even prepared magic-blocking golden bombs.

 Answered the question in one sentence, and also reaffirmed the great role of the warlocks.

 It should be said that Fringilla Vigo is worthy of being a distant relative of the emperor.

 She can always show it when political wisdom is needed.

From this, Menno Kuhorn decided to continue to believe in the conclusion that "warlocks can target, or at least delay, Lan En".
