Shameless Warlock

Chapter 261 Am I about to make a great contribution?

According to Xu Nan's request, not many members participated in this temporary combat meeting.

Apart from Xu Nan himself, the only high-level members who can really participate in the decision-making stage are the chief general Scully, the representatives from the Icelands, the great elder Kamduo, and Xiaoliang, Tang Haibao and other confidants from the earth.

On the desk is the assessment of this potential battle issued by the city hall.

This assessment was made by the most professional gray tower consuls. They completed this report after relatively objective analysis and comparison based on the information provided by Scully and Xiaoliang.

Xu Nan has already seen it, and the rest of the people who are qualified to watch it will naturally not be left behind.

From a professional point of view, this report is impeccable, basically taking into account all aspects of the warring parties, as well as the possibility of implementing various strategic goals.

There is also a long appendix at the end of the report, which is the detailed opinions on the war put forward by the gray tower consuls.

It has to be said that these gray tower consuls have accumulated too much experience and knowledge over the long years.

Not only did they show amazing execution in terms of internal affairs, even at the war level, many of the suggestions they put forward made Scully quite admirable.

It is precisely because there is such a reliable, loyal and capable administrative team working at home that Xu Nan dares to go out and wander around like this...

However, this report also has many shortcomings.

Right now, for example, Scully is talking about this:

"The city hall is very considerate, but I don't think the enemy is invincible!"

"Even, we only need some simple guidance to solve this disaster that may erupt at any time."

"All we need is a hearty victory."

"..."

He talked eloquently for a long time before stopping.

The rest of the people did not speak, they were all waiting for Xu Nan to make a statement.

Xu Nan remained calm.

In fact, before this battle meeting started, he had his own ideas.

But right now, Scully's thinking should partly overlap with his own.

Although the rest of the people looked a little nervous and excited, they didn't have the slightest tendency to abandon the city and flee at any time as Liu Huo said.

Sure enough, Liuhuo was scaring himself again.

Xu Nan couldn't help complaining a few words in his heart, and turned his attention to the meeting.

Seeing that everyone was waiting for him to express his opinion, he simply coughed lightly:

"What do you think, Xiaoliang?"

"This information is mainly derived from the work of your scouting team."

"What do you think we should do now?"

Xiaoliang was stunned for a moment, maybe he didn't expect Xu Nan to ask his opinion directly.

After all, in everyone's conception, if the unknown city and so on are Xu Nan's private property, even professionals from the earth are equivalent to hugging Xu Nan's thigh.

In the past, Xu Nan made all the decisions of the Unknown City alone, and the execution was in charge of the Gray Tower administrator he formed out of thin air.

For many power-hungry people, it has to be said to be a huge blow.

But this strange model also avoids many disadvantages and ensures the rapid development of the unknown city in the early stage.

After all, a lot of unnecessary internal friction is reduced.

Xiaoliang himself doesn't have much ambition for the so-called power.

But before coming here, he also sorted out his thoughts on the road. Facing Xu Nan's question, he answered truthfully:

"I have the same attitude as General Scully."

"Although our understanding of the enemy is not deep enough, many residents have some panic about the underground creatures, but if we think about it seriously, we still have a lot of room for mediation."

"Going a step further, this potential war crisis might not be an opportunity for the rise of our Unknown City."

"..."

Unknowingly, he raised his voice.

Both Scully and Kamdor showed a slightly startled look.

What Xiaoliang said earlier was actually nonsense, or it was similar to what they thought.

But the last sentence is a bit tricky.

This young man from Earth obviously thought much ahead of them.

In other words, the advanced vision and pattern brought by the earth of the 21st century are subtly working.

Even if they had never fought a war, keyboard players like Xiao Liang and Xu Nan had unknowingly absorbed war information thousands of times more than the natives of the general world.

This information may seem haphazard, but it actually plays a big role.

Xu Nan nodded approvingly.

In fact, from Scully's initial work report, he understood the strategic thinking of the devil general.

He is a resolute main fighter!

This is not surprising.

The army of the unknown city has just been established, and it needs the baptism of war!

Xu Nan helped him solve his hidden illness again. It's no wonder that such a general has no intention of making contributions.

Speaking of the entire Unknown City, facing the threat of the United Legion, he is probably the happiest person.

The strategy he proposes is also very simple and crude.

That is a real fight with the vanguard of the United Legion!

You know, the United Legion seems to be strong and strong, but they just retreated from the Icesaw Valley, their morale is low, and they need to be appeased. The large army will definitely not be able to reach the unknown city in a short time.

The Vanguard Legion with well-preserved strength may have good combat effectiveness, but it is also a very important criterion for the United Legion.

Scully was acutely aware of the cause of the war

It doesn't seem like the Combined Legions are hungry for war.

It's because they want to avoid something!

In the depths of the dark abyss, it seems that someone is driving away the black dragons and demons as if they were dying.

This point, Xu Nan knew better, it was the Soulstealer army that was defeated in Stephen Sand!

Therefore, the purpose of the United Legion is to migrate and save lives!

They wanted to cross the Icesaw Valley and temporarily escape the influence of the Soulstealer Legion.

After all, not every force is called Stephen Sang, and they all have supreme-level powerhouses sitting in their command.

But now, after defeating Icesaw Valley, they headed towards the surface again.

It seems that the unknown city is the only way to go, but here comes the point

The links between the underground world and the surface are intricate, and there cannot be only one path to the surface.

The reason why they chose to come in the direction of the unknown city was probably because they felt that it was safer here.

Based on the information Xu Nan has, they all know that on the other side of the ghost mother forest, there is a passage between the underground world and the surface world!

The United Legion didn't go there, probably because they thought it was dangerous.

In fact, since Xingling Ruier turned into Xu Nan's figure, the ghost mother forest should be safe.

Unfortunately, the United Legion did not know.

Even if Xu Nan told them this information, they would not believe it.

Therefore, what they need to do is to make the United Legion realize that the Unknown City is more difficult to mess with than the Ghost Mother Forest!

It's more dangerous here!

This is Scully's strategic approach.

With a hearty victory, the vanguard of the United Legion was defeated, forcing the black dragon and the demons to divert to the Ghost Mother Forest.

In all fairness, this kind of thinking is very correct and intuitive.

As long as the victorious battle is fought beautifully and the deterrence given is strong enough, then the goal of changing the marching route of the United Legion is very hopeful.

But the problem is that Xu Nan doesn't just want to achieve this goal.

What he wants, more!

In comparison, Xiao Liang's words were more to Xu Nan's liking.

Because compared to Xiao Liang's considerations, Scully's combat policy is limited to the war itself.

And Xiaoliang, as a scout, actually considered the rise of the unknown city...

This made Xu Nan very pleased.

Xiaoliang's thoughts coincided with his.

Even, his consideration is even deeper!

That is, this war can not only be resolved with this small-scale battle, but also through some other means to use the influence of this war to expand the influence of the unknown city!

A city, if it keeps developing in the same place, can of course progress slowly with its own resources.

But Xu Nan didn't have that much time.

The war is coming. If you can't prepare before the real big battle, you might as well take a gamble and use these small-scale battles to strengthen yourself.

No matter what force wants to develop and grow, there is a certain blood-sucking integration effect.

But in the dangerous underground world, the effect of this kind of blood-sucking and integration is even more obvious.

For example, Lich Sanger's Icesaw Valley.

Since this fortress became famous, almost all the forces and cities around it fell into a stage of rapid decline. Either withdraw or be annexed, there is no third end at all.

But Icesaw Valley itself has attracted a large number of underground races because of its strong strength and relatively fair order.

Although these underground creatures are the source of instability, they are also a great demographic dividend.

Xu Nan didn't want to compete with Bingsaw Valley for the precious population resources yet.

But he felt that it was almost time to announce the existence of the Unknown City to the entire underground world.

Even the current Unknown City is not strong enough.

The city owner himself is only level 14.

But it doesn't matter.

He knew exactly what he was leaning on.

Since it is backed by Stephen Sang and Paradise Lost, it is necessary to make full use of these advantages in order to expand rapidly and improve the comprehensive strength of Unknown City as soon as possible.

Otherwise, it is a waste of resources.

...

At the battle meeting, Xu Nan was very "democratic".

Not only did Scully and Xiaoliang express their opinions, but they also asked Kamdo, the elder of the ice field, for his thoughts, and Tang Haibao's suggestions.

The former is very modest, which means that the people of Icefield have always followed the Lord of the city; the latter is relatively resentful, after all, Xu Nan lost his military power to Scully, but this guy is also very self-aware, knowing that he is not the one who manages the army material.

Tang Haibao's main object of complaint was the cheating magic net designed by Xu Nan.

He is now an experienced magic net user, but unfortunately the only spells he can use are fireballs with different cups.

This huge gap made him feel deeply pained.

If it wasn't for Xu Nan, maybe this guy would turn into a Shiba Inu to bite people.

After appeasing Tang Haibao just right.

Xu Nan cleared his throat and looked at the crowd:

"Actually, heroes see the same thing."

"I have similar ideas to yours, but here I am..."

"There's a bolder plan!"

After that, he began to describe his policy and purpose with great interest.

At first, everyone was a little confused.

Immediately afterwards, they were a little stunned.

"Huh? No objection?"

"Then do as I tell you!"

"Pay attention to confidentiality, try not to disturb the residents of the city!"

Taking advantage of the dazed look on everyone's faces and still digesting, Xu Nan happily made a decision.

After Xu Nan left, everyone suddenly realized the meaning of the "combat meeting"

It probably means "listen to the meeting of the city lord to deploy the plan before the battle".

...

anyway.

Under Xu Nan's order, the first war deployment in the unknown city ushered in intensive preparations.

After all, this city belongs to him alone. With the help of Liuhuo and the gray tower consuls, even Scully, who has the command of the army, cannot defy Xu Nan's will.

Xu Nan's super charisma is one of the reasons for all this.

Another reason, of course, is the secretive background behind him.

While his subordinates were preparing their own combat deployment, Xu Nan took a chance and used the Lost Paradise system to teleport to the red dragon's lair on the secondary plane.

He didn't come here to ask for help. In fact, the addition of a red dragon may have a good impact on this small-scale battle that is about to break out.

However, in the context of the confrontation between the Unknown City and the United Legion, and in contrast to the several black dragons of the Black Dragon Legion, the role that Nicholas can play is naturally very limited.

Xu Nan mainly came to find Qin Lele.

Although he had mastered the method of building the altar of the God of Gambling, Xu Nan did not directly build the altar in the unknown city for the sake of safety, but chose to continue to use Nicholas' lair as a base for communication between the two parties.

It's just that Xu Nan is a little puzzled.

When he came this time, he didn't meet Nicholas.

I don't know if the red dragon went out to look for food, or encountered something.

Xu Nan used the relevant information of the family to sense it, and found that Nicholas was not far from the lair, so he was relieved.

Only when she went for a daily forage.

Soon, he activated the altar in the underground lair, and accurately contacted Qin Lele according to the method agreed by the two parties.

"I have something to tell you..."

The two said similar words almost in unison.

Immediately Xu Nan was slightly taken aback, and said with a smile:

"You go ahead."

Qin Lele looked excited, and said mysteriously:

"I just came back from Ferrando's Day Temple!"
