Mastering Thunder from Hogwarts

Chapter 790: Air Combat (seeking a monthly ticket)

"How is that possible?" Hermione's face froze, "Our cheapest air unit is the Graling, which costs 200 merit points and has 4 units. How can they afford it?"

"There's a broomstick on the other side!" Wood seemed to have found the target, pointing to a few black spots above the woods in the distance, "Look, those guys are patrolling along the route from Stronghold 1 to Stronghold 3, obviously searching.

Our reconnaissance force."

"What? Are their broomsticks very cheap? How come they can be redeemed so quickly?" Hermione seemed to think of something, and was suddenly startled. "Then if they redeem a large number of broomsticks, wouldn't we be trapped?

on the ground?"

"No!" Wood shook his head, "There are very cheap flying units on the opposite side, but we also have very cheap anti-aircraft weapons. Have you forgotten those scatter cannons that can be exchanged for only 50 merit points?"

"I used to wonder why there is such cheap air defense equipment. It turns out that the attacking side's flying props are also very cheap."

Wood cursed in his heart, why didn't he realize this earlier, and now they are passive.

"Killing an enemy can get 2 points of merit. If the prices of those flying broomsticks and scatter cannons are the same, counting our previous deaths and the output of No. 1 Stronghold, they can exchange out a set of

Flying broomstick." Hermione also reacted at this time.

As it was their first time to enter the battlefield dungeon, their biggest obstacle was actually not knowing what kind of combat preparations the other party could exchange for from the quartermaster.

Anyway, their merit exchange list contains some defensive props and hired beasts, such as sandbags for constructing trenches, as well as various artillery, traps, and the like.

Before, Wood had guessed that the opponent's exchange items were offensive-oriented materials, but he did not expect that there would be cheap aerial vehicles like broomsticks.

"Then what should we do now?" Hermione suddenly thought, "The reconnaissance team has been killed. They will definitely send people to fight for position 3. Should we take the opportunity to launch a counterattack towards position 1?"

"Counterattack?" Wood frowned tangledly, "But what if the other party hasn't sent anyone to take action? Wouldn't this just fall into their trap? And now the mountain road has been beaten into a ghostly shape, and there is no obstruction at all.

No, the difficulty of our offense is not lower than theirs."

The battlefield in the Hastings Battle dungeon is basically a jungle environment, and it is difficult to see enemies in the distance with the naked eye.

For example, in the field of view of Wood's telescope, you can't see what is happening in the valley at all. You can only see a few people riding broomsticks hovering in the sky.

Therefore, when fighting in this area, the biggest impact on them is actually the field of vision, and the passage leading to the No. 1 position has been beaten bare at this time.

Now when Percy and the others attack from position one, they have to lie down on the ground and crawl to approach, otherwise they won't even be able to get close to the outermost position. And if they want to counterattack downwards, they won't even have a chance to crawl forward.

.

"Then we can't just watch, right?" Hermione knew that the risk of counterattack now was very high, but such a dry defense was too passive.

"How about sending one or two teams to support position 3 from another direction?" Hermione suddenly thought, "The other side won't be able to react for a while. If we use some defensive equipment from the front, we should be able to withstand it!"

"This is indeed a way, but the biggest trouble now is that the intelligence is restricted." Wood was a little confused, "If we don't regain the intelligence advantage, we will still be in a passive state."

While he was talking, Wood heard the news that the second investigation team had also been killed.

"No, we can't let those guys do whatever they want in the sky." Wood looked at Hermione and made a decision immediately, "We have saved a lot of merit now. I will exchange it for a set of Graling now. You, Ron, and Draco,

Zhang Qiu also rushed out, trying to kill a few of them and take back the investigation rights."

"No problem!" Hermione immediately accepted the order and turned around to find the other three companions.

Soon, four gray horses with ribs and wings appeared in the stronghold.

Galling is one of the four Pegasus horses along with the Talisman Horse, Yeqi, and Yinselong. The characteristic of Galling is that it sprints very fast. It may not be as flexible and obedient as the Talisman Horse, but it is better than Yinselong.

Much more docile.

These Glalings were covered with a thick layer of armor. After checking their attributes, everyone discovered that each of them actually had a shield value of 500 points. Only when this layer of shield was broken down would they be counted as dead and teleported away.

.

"Good guy, this is much better than an ordinary flying broomstick!" Ron climbed onto a Glaling excitedly. After giving it a try, he found that these Pegasus were very obedient and had obviously received professional training.

"Don't delay, hurry up and regain the air superiority, and don't forget to report it in time if you find any ground information!" Wood saw another wave of enemies rushing towards the front line, said hello, and immediately rushed over to support.

"Don't worry, watch me beat the shit out of them!" Ron shouted confidently, and then he jumped out of the cliff with a pinch in the horse's belly.

Next to her, Hermione, Draco and Zhang Qiu followed closely behind, jumping into the air together and flying towards the location where Harry last appeared just now.

At first, the four of them thought they would have to search to find each other, but surprisingly, not long after they took off, they bumped into Harry and the other four.

"Don't even think about passing through here. I advise you to arrest them as soon as possible!" Ginny shouted as she rushed out of the woods below. She had obviously been lying in wait here for a long time.

"You want to fight us with a broken wooden stick under your butt? You're looking for death!" Draco was worried that he couldn't find them, but he didn't expect that the other party actually appeared on his own, and naturally faced him head-on with a headbutt.

Go up.

As a result, an aerial battle broke out as soon as the two groups of people met. Members of both sides charged at their opponents in unison, waving their wands and casting their best spells at them.

"Expelliarmus!"

"All petrified!"

"Spiral Impact!"

"The cold blade is unsheathed!"

"Lightning strike!"

The colorful magic bullets were like sharp arrows from a bow, making a loud crackling noise and galloping towards their respective opponents.

When faced with an attack coming in front of you, those who are good at flying will roll to dodge, and those who are confident in their fighting skills will raise their wands to parry.

For a moment, not only were all kinds of magic spells flying in the sky, but people were also wandering around. Soon, eight people were fighting in a melee up and down, left and right, looking like a group of miniature fighter jets chasing and shooting each other in the air.

Among them, Harry relied on his superb flying skills to draw a beautiful arc in the air, nimbly went around behind Ron, and fired a lightning spell at his good brother's butt.

But what surprised him was that although his spell hit Ron firmly, it did not shoot down or even hurt the opponent.

The reason was that when Harry's spell was about to hit the opponent, the Pegasus under Ron actually lit up a shield, completely blocking his spell.

"Oops!" Harry secretly yelled, and then shouted to the other teammates, "Their Pegasus has its own shield, don't fight them head-on!"

"It's too late to find out now!" Hermione sneered, then withstood a spell and hit Neville's broom with a blazing backhand of flames.

Before Neville, whose tail caught fire, could control his shaking broom, he was turned into a white light by several damage-repairing spells.

When the other three attackers saw this, they immediately realized that something was wrong. The opponent's flying vehicle was obviously better than their own, and they were the only ones who would suffer if they continued to fight like this.

So the three of them immediately pressed their broomsticks and descended into the woods below, trying to use the terrain to deal with Hermione and others.

Up to this point, they still had no idea of ​​retreat. Anyway, the mission had been completed, and now they could delay it as long as they could.

"Want to run? Chase!"

Ron and the others also experienced the power of Pegasus at this time. Sure enough, expensive things are expensive for a reason.

Immediately afterwards, the four of them chased Harry and others, starting a pursuit battle in the woods. From a distance, they could see the bursts of smoke and magic auras rising from here.

Fortunately, Harry, Ginny and Cedric were all year-round users of broomsticks and were very skilled in flying. They were able to survive with the help of trees, but they could only run around and couldn't fight back.

But just when the pursuit battle was in full swing, a turning point appeared!

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

A series of five wizards suddenly appeared in front of Harry and others on broomsticks, led by Neville, who had just been resurrected.

"I've brought people to help you! Fight back!" Neville shouted excitedly to Harry and the others, seemingly unhappy about being shot by the previous volley.

"Why did you bring people here?" Harry was surprised when he saw this, but he knew that after they eliminated the first reconnaissance team, Percy sent three teams to secretly attack Stronghold 3.

The segmented attack used on the frontal battlefield is actually to use the number of people to confuse the defender, making the opponent think that they are dividing their personnel into three equal parts to continuously attack the position.

So after seeing Neville coming with a team of people, Harry immediately realized that after excluding them and the three teams heading to Position 3, wouldn't there be only 30 people left in the front? Isn't Percy afraid that something will happen?

?

"Don't worry!" Neville said with a calm smile as he called his companions to stop Hermione and others, "We have captured the No. 3 position! Many of them returned to the No. 1 position after being killed.

.”

"Besides..." Neville suddenly rode his broom and came to Harry's side and whispered, "Percy is also making big moves right now. After we deal with Hermione and the others, we have to rush over to support him."

"Understood!" Harry nodded with relief after hearing this, and greeted Cedric and Ginny, then turned his broomstick and launched a countercharge towards the enemy.

When Hermione and others saw reinforcements coming from the opposite side, their first reaction was not to be afraid. Instead, they continued to rush towards the opponent. After all, they had already experienced the power of Glaling, so they subconsciously did not use these flying broomsticks.

Keep it in mind.

But soon they realized what the numerical advantage was. The eight broomsticks were like eight annoying sparrows, surrounding the four of them, shooting out a magic spell from time to time, knocking them out.

"No! We can't fight a positional battle with them." Hermione saw the armor value of her Pegasus dropping rapidly, and knew that the stalemate could not continue.

Although these gallings are powerful, they are also very expensive!

If you exchange your own Pegasus for the opposite broomstick, you will really be at a disadvantage to your grandma's family.

"Let's lead them back to the base! Let Wood help!" Hermione greeted, then took the lead and turned back on Pegasus.

Upon hearing Hermione's words, the other three people immediately reacted and followed Hermione's actions immediately.

Obviously the attacker's air units have an advantage over them, but the defender is not without solutions.

With such a retreat, Glaling's speed advantage was revealed, and he immediately threw the eight broomsticks behind his head.

In fact, this is also the reason why Harry and others did not choose to retreat just now, because with the basic flying broomsticks under their bodies, they could not avoid Glaling's pursuit.

When Harry and others saw this, they immediately chased after them. After discovering that the direction in which they fled was Position 2, they were even more delighted. After all, they had originally planned to go there for support.

After chasing each other like this, this large group of people soon came to the sky above Position 2, and it was then that everyone discovered that the situation here was also chaotic.

At this time, at the forefront of the battlefield, a large black mist appeared at some point that could not be dispersed by the blowing spell. This black mist spread from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, and it was unknown what was in the smoke.

This was obviously specially prepared by Percy for a new round of offensive, and it is not known how many Aluminum Talismans he exchanged for this.

Faced with the situation in front of them, the defenders in Position 2 could not see the environment at all. They could only blindly fire a few magic spells at first, but it was obvious that the effect was very little.

Wood quickly stopped everyone's waste of magic power, and instead took the initiative to give up the outermost trench and shrink the front to the inner ring.

Immediately afterwards, the defenders quickly learned the enemy's purpose. Just as everyone was on alert, two giant monsters wearing armor suddenly appeared in front of them!

"Ouch!

"

Two giant monsters, one holding a spiked sledgehammer and the other holding a rusty anchor, howled and rushed out of the smoke, followed by a large number of murderous attacking wizards.

Percy's general attack has begun!

"kill!"

Percy, who had been in charge of the command, also appeared at the forefront of the position. As soon as he rushed out, he shouted loudly, and at the same time, he clicked his wand and shot out several fast and urgent spells, killing two people on the spot.

The wizard emerges from the trench.

The two giant monsters were even more ferocious. Relying on the thickness of their armor, they smashed into the sandbag wall in front of them. They swung their weapons several times and smashed a large hole in the fortifications.

The wizards who followed the attack directly used the two giant monsters as their own bunkers, lined up in two tight columns, and rushed out of the smoke one after another.

Obviously, they used this method to avoid getting lost in the vast smoke. Looking at their fierce looks, it seemed that they had already held back enough of their evil spirits and were ready to take this opportunity to vent it out!
