Chapter 533: Hittites (2-in-1)
"We ...... Isn't that too high-profile?"
Li Shuyi was a little red-faced.
Bai Xiaowen said with a smile: "I integrated the previous memories of this Dior chariot commander, and found that this person's prestige in the corporal was not high. It takes a lot of effort to regain his prestige in just a few days, and it is not worth it. ”
"Why? In Kane, didn't you just spend a lot of effort to form a group of your own team?" Li Shuyi blinked, "I think the identity of the C-level ticket should be used, even if it is worth it to let the soldiers be cannon fodder." ”
Listening to Li Shuyi's thick black thoughts, Bai Xiaowen nodded appreciatively: "To have this kind of consciousness is to be an excellent awakened person...... Well, in fact, my identity as a charioteer commander is average, and there are only 10 people who can command you and me, which is a combat unit in ancient Egypt...... Including eight infantrymen, a rider and an archer. ”
"I took a look at it with insight just now, and the creep that was reported is level 7, but in terms of attributes, it is not even as good as an ordinary template creature...... What do you think that means?"
Li Shuyi thought for a moment: "The world is not difficult?"
"That's right. Of course, this kind of large-scale battle with hundreds of thousands of people participating in it is not much less difficult...... However, it is inevitable that the strength of grassroots individuals will weaken,"
Bai Xiaowen said, "The transmission degree of the ancient Egyptian plane is far inferior to that of ancient Huaxia, and the difficulty of the world is certainly not as good. If the strength of the grassroots individuals reaches the standard of ordinary templates, and if it is pushed up, the lower-level officers are elites, and the upper-level officers are at the leader level, then wouldn't the commander of the army and the Pharaoh of Ramses reach the level of rare leaders or even lords? What is the difference between this and the Three Kingdoms Plane World of Ancient China? ”
After a pause, Bai Xiaowen concluded, "Therefore, the strength of the small soldier can deduce the difficulty of this world. The strength of the low-level creeps is lower than that of the ordinary template, the chariot commander like me is the strength of the ordinary template, the upper-level officer is the elite level, and the legion general is the leader level...... This makes more sense. ”
Li Shuyi said suddenly: "Do you think that these small soldiers who are lower than ordinary templates have no need to establish prestige and win over." ”
Bai Xiaowen nodded: "The butcher can solve a group of weak chickens that can be solved by rotting, there is no need to waste energy, and the number is too small." In this ancient Egyptian plane, as long as we don't die and fall into the encirclement of the large army, we don't have to worry about safety...... Hmm, skip the task. ”
Spiritual Rule Tips:
"[Main Quest: Choice] is opened. ”
[Objective: Join a faction and gain reputation above Reverence.] 】”
[Difficulty: Unknown.] 】”
[Mission duration: 10 days.] 】”
[Reward: None.] 】”
The main quest is the task that the awakened must complete every time they enter the spirit plane, and if they can't complete it, it means that all the benefits of this expedition will be wiped out. Therefore, whether the task reward is "none" or "yes", this task must be done.
In fact, when rushing for prestige, the merits and favorability of spiritual figures obtained are already considered benefits.
Li Shuyi also received this task, and she wondered: "Haven't we already joined the ancient Egyptian camp? ”
Bai Xiaowen shook his head and said: "The fact that the C-level ticket draws the faction identity does not mean that we must be loyal to the ancient Egyptian camp. This is the degree of freedom given by the rules of the spiritual realm, and if we have to fall out with Ramses because of some important interests, defect from ancient Egypt to join the Hittite camp, and rush the prestige of the Hittite camp to reverence, we can also take the spoils of war. ”
"However, as defectors, we are foreign to the Hittites, and it must be more difficult to build from scratch to reverence and prestige, so we will not make this choice until we have to. ”
After the two accepted the main quest, they both chose to upgrade the level.
Bai Xiaowen has been promoted to level 6, with +2 for strength, agility and physique, and +5 for spirit. His total mental stat reached 63 points.
As a summoning profession, every time the spirit reaches a multiple of ten, it is a relatively large improvement. Bai Xiaowen's mental power bonus to the summoned creatures has changed from the original +5 to +6 all attributes.
In addition, the summoned creature has also been upgraded to level 6 with Bai Xiaowen, and its own basic attributes have also increased.
Take the butcher as an example, when you reach level 6, with the addition of psychic tutors and mental power, you have reached the attributes of strength 26, agility 16, constitution 36 and spirit 13, not to mention anything else, just the increase in health from the upper limit of 600 points to the upper limit of 720 points (slaughterhouse passive) is already quite amazing.
Of course, the total health of the butcher is now 660 points, and the theoretical upper limit of the slaughterhouse of 60 points still needs to be stacked by killing the enemy.
The whole army pulled out the camp and began to line up in a burst of commands.
According to the standards of the regular army of later generations, the Ptah Divine Legion at this time was obviously very unprofessional, and the speed of the infantry was scattered, and the chariot commander and the driver and deputy commander of each team shouted hoarsely and scolded these improvised untouchables, and asked them to line up behind the chariot and set up a formation.
The brass chariot was only wrapped in a layer of brass armor, and the material was still wood. It's not a lot of space, just two people standing side by side.
In front of this small chariot, there was a horse that was also clad in armor and had blindfolds over its eyes - this was to prevent the horses from being frightened in the chaos of the battlefield and affecting their formation.
On the march or in battle, one driver is required to control the direction of the chariot, and he is considered the vice-captain of a chariot team. Also standing on the chariot was the captain, the archer, who was also the heart of the entire convoy, the one who gave orders.
The captain of the archer must not only have excellent mobile archery skills, but also know how to distinguish the language of the flag, accept orders and convey them to the pilots and infantrymen.
The driver of Bai Xiaowen's team is named Meru, and he is a standard ordinary template, which is stronger than the infantry. Bai Xiaowen scanned with insight, and after getting the charge hint of 10 psionic points, he didn't bother to pay.
When Bai Xiaowen ordered the other seven infantry under him to line up, Deputy Captain Mai Lu stood on the chariot early, holding the reins with both hands.
"Dior, have you finally gotten up from a woman's belly?"
Meru grinned, revealing a mouth full of yellow teeth, and said with a smile.
The other infantrymen lined up slowly, letting out bursts of laughter.
Bai Xiaowen frowned.
"Meru, you get down for Lao Tzu and command these mud-legged people to line up!" Bai Xiaowen shouted.
Meru looked a little surprised, as if he was curious about how Bai Xiaowen could give this order: "Are you a stupid pig, you Orion from the mountains? Lord Same's order, the legion should advance in a phalanx formation, I am the driver, and I want to control the horses to line up! You are the one who should command this group of mud-legged men to follow the chariot!"
"From now on, you're not a driver!" Bai Xiaowen patted Li Shuyi on the shoulder, "Charlotte is the driver, give you three seconds, and get out of here for me immediately." ”
"Are you crazy Dior?" Mai Lu looked a little incredible, he and Bai Xiaowen, as the captain and deputy captain of the chariot, although they were not in harmony and scolded each other, but when it came to their own work, neither of them could replace each other, so they could only pinch their noses and endure it-
For example, Dior, who was born in Orion, has superb marksmanship, while Meru, who was born in a horseman, is quite experienced in controlling chariots.
But don't think that these two have any comradeship...... The Ptah Legion is a recent expansion, and many archers and riders are temporarily conscripted, with only occasional training and no real battles.
"3!" Bai Xiaowen began to count down with a cold face.
"You don't have this power!" Mai Lu tried to remind Bai Xiaowen, and pointed to a colored feather on the hood on his head, "Although you are the chief and I am the deputy, I am the same rank as you......"
“2......”
"1!" After Bai Xiaowen shouted out this number, Li Shuyi had already jumped up, and before the angry Mai Lu could react, she punched him in the nose.
Boom!
Meru has a gold star in his eyes, and the strength value of Li Shuyi at level 6 is already as high as 32 points, and her agility is 43 points!
Bai Xiaowen looked disdainful: "Even a weak person like you is also worthy of being my deputy?"
The war horse seemed to sense the movement of the chariot behind it, and kicked the dirt with some uneasiness.
"Dio, you madman, how can you control the chariot without me?" Mai Lu, who got up from the ground in embarrassment, suppressed his anger and said, "What if your woman has two hits, she is just a layman when it comes to driving war horses!"
"Hmph. Bai Xiaowen easily jumped into the carriage, his spiritual power radiated slightly, and he established contact with the war horse driving.
As a summoning profession with high spiritual power, Bai Xiaowen appeased this horse, which was not even an ordinary template, which was naturally an extremely simple matter. After establishing a spiritual connection, Bai Xiaowen immediately issued an order, and the war horse took a step, dragging the chariot towards the direction of the first team in the military formation.
The other infantrymen were in a daze.
"What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and follow!Do you want to eat whips?" Bai Xiaowen snorted.
Seven infantrymen obediently lined up and followed the chariot forward. In this era, the blind obedience consciousness of lower-class civilians is still very strong.
But Meru didn't buy it, how could he accept it obediently from being demoted from a pilot to an infantryman?
"Dio, you have overstepped your authority to remove me, and I will accuse you of Lord Samet!"
"Whatever you want!"
Watching Mai Lu leave with a snort, Li Shuyi asked in a low voice, "What are your plans?" She didn't think that Bai Xiaowen was doing this casually, and there must be a deep purpose.
"Actually, I didn't have any plans. It's just that if you want to rush your prestige to reverence in the shortest possible time, and save time to investigate the organization of the Silent Tongue, you can't follow the rules, you have to change,"
Bai Xiaowen squinted his eyes, as if thinking, "It depends on what kind of person the legion leader Samat is...... If he is a wise commander, after we show a certain strength, we should not stand out for the sake of Meru. If he's an idiot, there's no future for him to mess around...... Of course, I was also skeptical that Meru would be able to bring the Legion Commander over. ”
The infantry of the first team, under Bai Xiaowen's advice, followed the chariot to the target point, and then lined up behind the chariot. On Bai Xiaowen's right-hand side, there is the second team and the third team...... And on the left, there is no one, it is a lush forest.
The Ptah God Legion, the whole team took a full quarter of an hour, and the level of this new army can be seen.
Standing on the chariot, Bai Xiaowen opened his spiritual large-scale sense. After reaching level 6 and reaching 63 points of spiritual power, his sensing range has exceeded a radius of 1,200 meters, and when the concentration extends in one direction, it seems that he still has enough energy to spare.
The chariot phalanx on the right hand side, there was no need to induce, Bai Xiaowen bet his spiritual power on the left side, trying his limit.
Suddenly, Bai Xiaowen vaguely sensed that there seemed to be someone in the dense forest on the left, near the hills about a thousand meters away.
"One...... Two ......" Bai Xiaowen counted silently, there were four people in total, and a few horses. Due to the distance, it is impossible to sense the specific situation, but this small group of people is extremely quiet, and every movement seems deliberate and careful.
"It's ...... Hittitite scouts?"
This thought crossed Bai Xiaowen's mind. He whispered to Li Shuyi: "You wait here for a while, and I'll come when I go...... If someone asks, you say I found a suspicious person in the jungle. ”
Li Shuyi nodded. Bai Xiaowen jumped out of the car lightly, summoned his angry claws under the surprised gaze of the infantry, rode up, and rushed into the dense forest like a gust of wind.
When the infantry looked at Li Shuyi again, their eyes were obviously different.
Captain of Dior's chariot...... This kind of ability to summon a giant wolf doesn't seem to be an ordinary hunter.
......
The angry claws ran fast, and the wind whistled in Bai Xiaowen's ears.
As the distance narrowed, Bai Xiaowen's mental sense became clearer and clearer. The four men and four horses should not have noticed Bai Xiaowen's approach, they carefully walked to the high place of the hills, and seemed to be observing the movements of the Ptah God Legion with the help of some kind of reconnaissance items.
It wasn't until Bai Xiaowen approached within three hundred meters and ran out of the dense forest that the group discovered Bai Xiaowen.
"Damn, we've been found...... Wait, there's only one man coming!and a wolf!"
"Kill him!"
The four Hittite cavalrymen drew their sabers that flickered in cold light - Bai Xiaowen frowned slightly, the Hittites were more advanced than he imagined, and they actually used iron weapons, and it seemed that the workmanship was quite good. This was a bit strange in West Asia and North Africa in the thirteenth century BCE, where he had just observed that most of the armies of ancient Egypt were still using bronze weapons.
However, this small surprise was not enough to save the four Hittite horsemen, all four of whom were just level 7 ordinary templates.
One of the Hittite cavalrymen rushed towards Bai Xiaowen, and as soon as he raised his claw, he crashed back at a faster speed, breaking his tendons and spurting blood from his mouth.
The other three were startled, and before they realized they had hit the iron plate, a group of skeleton swords and shieldmen had descended from the sky, blocking their path.
