Magic Tower Starry Sky
Chapter 1557: imperfect success
"You're not going to continue the fight? "Half asked.
"If you really have the status of a sword master, I will not underestimate you who is empty-handed. But not now, go back and change to a better weapon, at least don't take a bad one. If you want to die, you can continue to hinder us from saving lives, and I will not hold back when the time comes. In short, if you dare to provoke with your bare hands, you must have the awareness of being bare-handed. "
The human side was the most excited when they heard that the savage Amida, a barbarian who didn't know where he came from, planned to release him.
But no one laid blame. The strong are qualified to be self-willed, and others can't tell a single mistake. Taking a hundred steps back, even if you feel dissatisfied, you can't punish the other party. So why bother to offend your own strong man. Midi has no tradition of backing down from provocateurs.
He didn't say thank you for a while, and didn't say anything on the scene, but left directly, and walked cleanly. Before leaving, he took another look at Killing Amida.
He was quite sure that the other party was not a barbarian. What exactly it is is hard to say. But what is certain is that he instinctively repels the other party, similar to the kind of repulsion when encountering a natural enemy.
But it is not fear, and the two sides are not necessarily enemies. But what is the origin of this disgusting glance, I can't say at all. This is also the reason why he would simply leave, because this opponent feels too weird to him.
After leaving halfway, Killing Amida looked at the puzzled and angry people around him, and asked, "Are you still saving people? "
Only then did everyone wake up like a dream, and urgently rescued their comrades including Aijiou. And someone released a pyrotechnic signal into the air, allowing the airship that left the ground but still had space to land again.
It's just that everyone seemed quite silent, unable to understand the barbarian's behavior of letting the strong orc leave. But what should be done is still to be done, and everyone still remembers the mission of this trip.
The comrades who died must bring back the relics, and those who are still alive must save them and leave. If the person to be rescued dies, it depends on whether he has relatives to deal with the funeral. Otherwise, no one will accept the relics.
As for the corpses, a big pit was dug and buried together. Midi didn't pay much attention to the tradition of the body of the dead, because even if there are several layers of copper coffins, the monster with a nose spirit would still dig out something to eat because of hunger.
Those who are eligible are buried in guarded family cemeteries, or in cemeteries guarded by certain churches. If there are no conditions, then the handling of the funeral can be said to be quite casual; or it will be burned and cremated directly.
After all, if you are too serious and keep the corpse too complete, it will easily become the material of necromancers. In some ways this is even worse.
The most troublesome ones are those who can only be injured but not killed. Rescue, may not be able to save back. If you don't save it, it seems too inhumane. You must know that when they came out this time, everyone knew it well, and they also shouldered the task of political propaganda.
Don't feel that saving people is too troublesome, so kill them all, and shirk responsibility by saying that there is no one to save. This kind of thing was often done by lost people in the past.
Especially in the eyes of nobles, are ordinary people considered human beings? The nobles themselves are aware of the lack of human resources, and they are still afraid of executing some ordinary people. Or is it wasting precious medical resources on inferior people?
To this day, although the new school of doctors who synthesize undead and life has emerged, it has not really become popular. It is even more unlikely that the views of noble gentlemen will change so quickly.
But right now, he can't work like this, and he still counts on this mission to boost his morale. If there is a large-scale scandal, it is really better not to save than to save.
The last resort is to save for minor injuries, and delay for serious injuries. Anyway, there is still space in the airship, so let everyone come up. If you fail to go back alive, that is also fate. I didn't look at the sergeants who came to save people, they were dead and disabled. It's not that they didn't save them, but that there was no way to save them on the spot.
And after the strong orcs left halfway, the half-orc army on the periphery also retreated with a fight as if they had received the news. If it was a normal battle, the human side should catch up and beat the enemy thoroughly.
But now it's an abnormal state. Besides, if the enemy is assembled and retreats in an orderly manner, this is simply the best bait for the airship.
But the enemy fled in all directions like a tree fell and a monkey scattered. No matter which direction you chase, you must have mosquito repellent
child's consciousness. The old general of the Haider Empire simply issued an assembly signal, and stopped chasing the fully loaded airship.
When everyone in the prisoner camp boarded the boat, almost all the sergeants in charge of rescue and security on the ground returned to the airship, and only Amida, who had nothing to do from beginning to end, remained on board.
Before Haider's last airship left the ground, someone greeted the barbarian to board, but he shook his head and refused. The sergeant standing in front of the hatch said in surprise, "Your Excellency, you don't know that this is a demon-occupied area, right?" "
"So what, can anyone hurt me?" Hacking Amida grinned heartlessly. The sergeant who asked him was speechless on the spot.
"Let's go, don't worry about me. This is the best hunting ground, as long as you don't come to disturb it. "
Sergeant Haider was speechless. In the end, he could only salute, and said: "Then I wish your Excellency a triumphant return." "Then the hatch was closed, and the airship lifted off the ground.
It wasn't until the airship completely disappeared from sight that Amida, who was standing on the ground, turned his head and left. But instead of walking away, he disappeared suddenly, as if he had never appeared before.
Of course, no one saw this scene. In fact, there had never been such a person in this world.
But in other battlefields, it was not as unlucky as the team that Ezio was in. The overwhelming combat power and speed of the airship is an unsolvable existence for the demon and half-orc army for a while.
In fact, no matter where the airship army is or who the opponent is, it has such an advantage. The reason why there is no way to become the mainstream of lost land warfare is because the airship troops are high-tech arms, and the cost and maintenance are beyond the burden of ordinary countries.
Those non-mainstream commercial airships among the people are honestly no different from taking explosives to the sky, or they will fall down at any time. I don't have the courage, I really dare not sit on such a coffin-like thing.
In short, the number of airships is the biggest reason why it is difficult to form an army. The entire Midi, only a rich and powerful Haider Empire can afford such expensive arms. In fact, the operation mode of the airship corps of the Haider Empire has not been disclosed to the public, nor is it fully maintained by the empire as most people imagine. It is a secret, and it is difficult for outsiders to know.
In short, using such a favored army to fight half-orcs is like hitting primitive people with airplanes and cannons.
But another important factor is that the only people who surrounded or captured humans were orcs. Basically, demons have no need for food, so of course they won't do such thankless things. The devil's sacrifices are all done on the spot, and they don't pick an auspicious day on purpose.
Therefore, the rescue operations in various places can be said to be quite smooth. The biggest damage is the worrying situation mentioned before. This area that is isolated from the outside world has formed some unique rules.
In order to solve these leaders who regarded themselves as the king of the mountain, the soldiers who carried out the rescue operation fought with each other. And these people were just thieves who took advantage of the fire, and of course they were not the opponents of the airship troops. They were defeated one after another, and even killed on the spot.
It can be said that there is only one outlier like the half-orc. Or only see one for the time being.
However, even though it has been calculated based on intelligence before, the number of survivors in some human gathering places still exceeds expectations, or the airships did not average the number of people they accommodated, so some airships were overloaded.
Although there is no so-called safe load in Midi, there is no such thing as overloading. But these fully loaded airships are more sluggish in operation, which is quite deadly on terrain with variable directions and strong winds.
The result of this is that all airships will return around the Fengdi Mountains instead of venturing through this accursed mountain range.
There is also another saying, which is to land somewhere and adjust the number of people carried by each boat. However, this opinion was quickly overturned.
Now everyone is eager to leave as soon as possible, there is no reason to extend the stay. Besides, this is an area occupied by demons and orcs, so how can it be regarded as safe, it is possible to let a large group of airships land and adjust the number of passengers.
And the good thing about the adjustment is that you can enter the dangerous waterway of Fengdi Mountains. This is tantamount to betting everyone's life again?
one
In the beginning, everyone would choose to cross the Fengdi Mountain Range, because they wanted to race against time and avoid being discovered by the enemy. But now that there is no urgency for time, there is no need to take this risk on purpose.
In addition, there are non-combatants on all airships, and it is expected that they will not hold back in an emergency, so why not avoid the possibility of harm from the beginning.
Therefore, the commander in charge of this mission, an old general from the Haider Empire, decisively issued instructions to detour.
All the airships immediately formed a formation and rose to a height that was difficult for ordinary creatures to reach. This height ensures that everyone can safely return to the rear, except for a few unlucky people.
Just like Ezio's serious injury, the doctor on the Twin Griffin, who was born in an elementary school, tried everything he could but failed to heal him. They can only drag their lives until they return to the base camp in the rear. If there is any misfortune in the process, you will only get a regret.
Ezio's situation is not an exception, it is also the norm on the battlefield. Unless you are quite well-off and have a rich family, it is possible to invite a life priest or bishop to perform magic and save lives. But most people really can only see fate.
The old general had no intention of forcibly passing through the Fengdi Mountains for these people. They all have resident doctors on their airships to treat serious injuries on their behalf. If they still can't survive this, they can only blame bad luck. But also a chance to live.
Through the cursed Fengdi Mountains, despite the chances of getting through. But as long as there is a mistake, the entire airship will be finished together.
Comparing the two, it is self-evident which choice a normal person will make. To put it simply, the value of the former is not big enough to gamble with the latter, whether it is for Ezio, or any rescue team or the injured human beings to be rescued.
