Chapter 13: The Gift of Cellers
The counter-offensive plan of the Demon Fortress is actually very simple, which is to use the Demon Slayer Legion in front to hold back the Demon Legion, and then let the Council Guard Legion from the waterway successfully land along the rainforest coast.
When the council guards contact the survivors of Kurast and the investigation team sent by the council before, they can use the advantage of being familiar with the terrain to constantly test the reaction of the demon legion to find the weak point behind the demon legion, and then at the decisive moment, the swarm and the council guards will break through the defense line of Kurast City from two sides, and completely drive the demons out of the harbor.
Although Zagalla, the Mother of the Hive, scoffed at this counteroffensive plan - it believed that a swarm that had just undergone a major evolution could easily break through the Demon Legion's defenses head-on.
However, because Randall had told him that there were not only a large number of demon clones stationed in Curast City, but also a large number of legendary evil deeds, and Mephisto already knew about Randall's "betrayal", it was possible that it would make targeted adjustments to Curlast's arrangement.
So in order to reduce losses and prevent some accidents, Xue Hua finally decided to follow the pace of the council's plan first.
After all, the current swarm is still lacking in terms of high-end combat power compared to the side of the Evil Pact, and if you rashly launch a frontal attack, you may incur an unexpected blow.
And......
Xue Hua raised his head from the railing and glanced at the shirtless and strong figure standing at the bow of the ship.
The commander-in-chief of the Parliamentary Guard was not a good guy to deal with, and he probably wouldn't like anyone to act rashly without a plan.
Xue Hua didn't want to cause any trouble on his side before the battle began, although he wasn't afraid, but trouble was trouble after all, and it would be better if he could avoid it.
Since someone wants to be a pioneer, why not let them be a pioneer?
"'Totem Divine Power' Ocasso, this guy is very difficult to get along with, right?"
Farah walked up to him, glanced at Xue Hua with a teasing look, and then craned her neck to look at the barbarian commander with war tattoos on his back.
When they got on the boat, this guy had been staring at Xue Hua with contemptuous eyes.
Apparently he was unhappy with the council's efforts to pin its hopes on a level 21 necromancer.
"It doesn't matter, I'm not under his command, and when the time comes to land, I'll start acting alone, and it's a question of whether we can meet in the future, so I don't bother to care what he thinks of me."
Xue Hua pursed his lips expressionlessly.
"After all, I must get the Hand of Tagio, and this is another condition I put forward to the emissary of the council......"
He shook his head slightly, and instead of continuing to make small talk with Farah, he turned and walked straight back to the cabin made of ice.
"Hey! This kid ......"
Farren paused for a moment, then shook his head with a helpless smile, and turned around to walk towards the other cabin.
Xue Hua walked back to the cabin, leaned on the head of the bed and opened the mind of the main nest, ready to review the swarm troops in the Leviathan.
This time, due to the transoceanic operation, the network of tunnel worms of the insect swarm has not yet been deployed to the other side of the Nobil Sea, and the speed of projecting troops by Zagaara's commander skills alone is too slow, so most of the troops can only be carried by Xue Hua in the Leviathan.
Fortunately, the space in Leviathan's body is indeed large enough, and it is more than enough to hold 100,000 swarms, and as long as he has these 100,000 swarms as the vanguard troops, Zagala can use his skills to continuously send reinforcements from the swarm to the front line of the battlefield.
And what the council didn't know was that the swarm had already had its own hidden stronghold in the vast rainforest long before they carried out their plan.
The new generation of mimic chicks hatched by the monitoring king insects has infiltrated the peripheral projection troops of the demon army, and a small number of shadow insects have also entered the rainforest area with the help of the king insects.
As long as Xue Hua gave an order, the Demon Legion would immediately lose a large number of mid- and low-level commanders.
Unbeknownst to everyone, the swarm had already preemptively laid the first chess piece in this war, and by the time Xue Hua arrived in the rainforest, this move would provide him with a fairly complete battlefield intelligence network.
Looking at the information sent from the demon legion strongholds in the main nest's mind, a slight smile appeared on the corner of Xue Hua's mouth, he was just about to check if there was any interesting information in these pieces of information one by one, but a signal suddenly came out of something that had not moved for a long time in the inventory.
Xue Hua frowned, exited the main nest mind, and took out a golden watch-like device from the inventory, the sea-blue crystal embedded in this thing was shining one after another.
Seeing this scene, the corners of Xue Hua's mouth twitched, and the expression on his face became relaxed.
This thing is the contact device that the star spirit phase technician Kellers gave him before, and since Kellers is a star spirit and cannot access the mind of the main nest, he can only use this thing to communicate with him.
However, it had been a long time since they had first made contact, and during that time Kylorus had retracted into the mechanical laboratory of the Star Spirit Colony, not knowing what he was up to.
Out of the mentality of employing people without suspicion and suspicion, Xue Hua has not bothered him, and now it seems that his trust at the beginning is still worth it.
Xue Hua touched the crystal, and Kelles' long-lost face appeared from the holographic screen above the crystal.
"Hello, Kyreus~ After staying at home for so long, he is finally willing to show up?"
"Otaku? Forehead... Forget it, Xue, I'm sorry to cut off contact with you without saying hello before, and thank you for trusting me and taking care of my partner......"
"Needless to say, I think I have a good eye for people.
So let's talk about it, you must have something to say to me when you come out this time? ”
Xue Hua interrupted Xing Ling's politeness and asked directly.
"Well, yes, the main reason I've been in the mechanical lab for so long is to make some preparations for our alliance... You know, you've done a lot as an ally, and now it's my turn to show my worth. ”
Kelles' image nodded.
"Say, I'll listen."
"I've summarized and improved some of the information about our technological creations stored in the colony ship I piloted, and they should be able to be used by the alien hordes you lead... In addition, I've designed a dedicated high-strength shield device for you, inspired by some of the Purifier's peripheral data.......
This shield system is somewhat similar to the armor of the high-ranking Templars in our race, and it automatically activates a layer of Immortal particle energy shield when you are attacked, which has the strength to block the Immortals' two Phase Fragmentation Cannons head-on, and can absorb free energy to recharge itself, although you can also use your own psionic energy to quickly recharge it.
I've given it to your motherworm, don't worry, it's not big, it's like a wider belt. ”
Keles explained.
"Very good, thank you for the gift, I am satisfied... I have some information to tell you here, though, but you have to be mentally prepared......"
"Huh? What is it about? ”
A sense of foreboding appeared in Kelles' heart, and he saw Xue Hua's expression suddenly become serious.
"About the astral spirits who colonized this universe with you......"
