Volume 5 The Trial of the Twins Chapter 61 To Save or Not to Save?

Although the magicians of Hohenheim were the ones who launched the attack, the successive defeats on the battlefield and the loss of supplies made them lose the ability to take the initiative, and they have generally changed from a strategic offensive to a strategic defender. The attackers and defenders quietly changed their identities, and as the leader of Hoinheim, Karma Luofei was very troubled. That is, after two days of hard work, his hair turned more than half white, giving people the feeling that he was ten years old all of a sudden.

A good commander always likes to attack, and modern military scientists have even put forward the idea that "offense is the best defense". However, Karma Luofei, who is familiar with the military, knows very well that compared to offense, defense has a greater advantage!

The advantage of the offensive lies in the initiative, the initiative to choose the timing of the battle, the initiative to choose the combat position. No matter how well defended, weaknesses are always there. Look for weak points or relatively weak points in your defenses, and then strike hard to destroy the entire defense with a single blow.

The advantage of defense lies in advance preparation, preset battlefields, and various fortifications. The initiative to attack is important, but if you encounter a strong castle or a quarantine area full of traps, you still have to avoid it, otherwise you will still hit your head and bleed. The advantages of fixed fortifications often make up for the lack of combat power, especially when faced with large numbers but weak individual "miscellaneous soldiers".

The mages of Hoinheim had completely shrunk their battle lines at this point, concentrating all their forces on the final camp.

The final camp is located in a hidden valley surrounded by mountains on three sides, and serves as a gathering point for nearby leylines. The magicians relied on the leyline gathering points to arrange large compound magic arrays. The completed magic circle is extremely powerful, not only can provide a steady stream of magic power for the magicians in the magic array, but also can strengthen some magic in a targeted manner, and restrict some magic - simulating the effect of the magic circle in the field, this is the magic research results that Hoinfheim magicians are most proud of, and it is also one of the main reasons why they are known as "light chasers".

Karma Luofei's biggest hope now is to rely on the large compound magic array in the last camp to have a battle with the Haim Samuel family in the valley offensive and defensive battle.

The large compound magic array and various defensive measures in the valley were built in a hurry, and there were problems of one kind or another, but if the Heim Samuel family still used the lineup and tactical arrangement of the previous several encounters, for example, they would not be able to eat and walk around.

But special attention should be paid to the high-level combat power of the Haim Samuel family. The number of their high-level combat power is already twice that of Hoinheim, mainly because the group of outsiders invited defected, and it was originally possible to maintain the number of high-level combat power at one to one...

Out of the tent, Karma Luofei immediately tensed his face, trying to make himself look as serious as possible, and showing a kind of momentum that was in his chest.

Calm – this is one of the most important traits of being a leader. Even if you panic like a dog in your heart, you have to show a very calm face. When the leader himself panicked when he encountered something, how did the following followers deal with themselves?

Karma Robefi is a scholar-type magician. As a staff officer, he can perform 100 percent of his abilities. However, it would be nice if he could be used as a commander to bring out 50 percent of his talents. Karma Robfe himself is well aware of this, and in his own words, it is "scheming and indecisive". Good at making ideas, but not good at making decisions.

In the previous seven encounters, the main reason for the defeat was of course that the high-level combat forces invited had defected one after another, but there were some reasons for Karma Luofei's unawareness and foresight.

To be precise, the magicians of Hohenheim were scholars. They are more adept at the study of magical theories and magical creations than at actual combat. Karma Luofei is already "iron-blooded" among them.

- Short and tall in the middle, that's what it is.

"Great Mentor."

A female magician in a white robe hurried in.

"What's wrong?"

"The young lady's injuries worsened again. There was a large-scale countercurrent in the magic circuit in her body, and the signs of loss of control were very obvious. ”

Karma Luofei's eyes were a little heavy.

Although the one in the mouth of the sorceress was not a member of Hohenheim, the relationship between the two sides was still antagonistic even before. But what she did is worth learning from every Hohenheim member, and she is a well-deserved example.

"Did you use Potions Six and Seven?"

"It's all already used."

"How's it going?"

"It's working out great. The healing effect of Elixir No. 6 is very obvious, and the strengthening and neutralizing effect of Elixir No. 7 is also very good. But the alien magic of her physical strength was still eating away at her life force and couldn't be removed. The sorceress's words paused, "Mentor Shastoro suggested the use of Elixir No. 2. Elixir II contains the sap of the World Tree, which contains a large amount of life force. Combined with the magic to guide consciousness, it should be possible to alleviate the countercurrent of the magic circuit......"

Hohenheim is an academic group of magicians, and it is naturally divided into eight magical factions of the academy. Mentor Sarstoro's full name is Sarstoro von Hohenheim and is the half-brother of Kalmarofe. He is good at the spells of the protection system, is the chief of protection, and has an extremely outstanding talent in the field of healing.

Karma Luofei was silent.

The sap of the World Tree is extremely rare, and if measured in monetary terms, it sells for about thirty to a hundred times the volume of Mithril. The "No. 2 Elixir" made from the sap of the World Tree is of immeasurable value.

“…… What is the advice of the Chief of Prophecy? ”

"Mentor Romanita thinks that Potion No. 2 has little effect on that young lady's injuries."

The Mentor of the Chief Romanita of Prophecy, whose full name is Naka Hilt de Romanita, is a Grand Mage who specializes in prophecy magic. Karma Lofe knew her well, and the two were not only partners who fought side by side, but also lovers.

“……”

Karma Luofei's brow furrowed.

Elixir No. 2 is very precious and limited, and the master alchemist who made it has passed away, making it impossible to refine it again. If the young lady's injury can be stabilized, Karma Luofei will not hesitate to use it. But if it doesn't work well or very poorly......

“…… However, Mentor Romanita still recommends using it, and it is also recommended to use it in conjunction with Elixir No. 3. ”

Elixir No. 3 is no less rare than Elixir No. 2. The process of refining not only requires a huge amount of magic power, but also requires the use of a variety of rare magic materials. At present, there are only three bottles in Hoinheim.

“…… Does the Chief Prophecy have a reason? ”

"No reason...... "The sorceress was silent for a moment," ...... However, Romanita Tutor highly recommends using it. And repeatedly emphasized that it was an opportunity to turn defeat into victory. ”

Karma Luofei's brow furrowed even tighter.

The young lady was amazingly qualified, not only did she have an extremely in-depth study and insight into magic, but she was also extremely modest and eager to learn, and in just half a day, she had completed the magic course that a magic apprentice could only complete in a year. And she is also versatile, like a bright pearl, like a child of destiny.

- Will she be an opportunity to turn defeat into victory?

Karma Lofe wished he could, but reason told him most of them weren't.

The world of magicians is very complicated, and they also pay attention to the "law, wealth, couple, and land" of cultivating immortals.

Spells, spells, magicians compete for spells, and the number of spells mastered is the truest embodiment of the status of magicians; Money, property, magician is an extremely "money-burning" profession, and you can't become a magician without money; Couples, partners, and magicians cannot live alone, they need to have like-minded partners and a broad network of interpersonal relationships; The study of land, ground, and magic is not something that can be started by just finding a place, and requires a lot of professional facilities and equipment.

With so many of the above things, this magician will gain respect and have enough social status.

But the world of magicians can also be very simple, that is, strength. As long as there is sufficient strength, "law, wealth, couples, and land" are just passing clouds. Only the power that is truly in your hands is everything!

The injured young lady was outstanding, but her strength was a little less impressive than her qualifications and talents. No, it should be said that it is very not enough to see! Barely able to exert his fighting spirit, but the appearance of the first level of black iron. It can be seen that most of the places where she lived before were "low magic areas", or simply "dead magic areas", and her strength grew extremely slowly. What's more, she was seriously injured at the moment, and it was obviously more than bad luck at the moment.

The young lady also had a guard. This guard's strength is very good, and his appearance is also very high, and he is a beautiful girl. But unfortunately she is actually a berserker, a berserker who does not distinguish between friend and foe after the fight. If there was no direct command from that young lady, no one would dare to let her play easily.

Karma Luofei was silent for a long time, and the sorceress who asked him for instructions even almost had the illusion that the Great Mentor was not in a daze. Eventually, he nodded, and instructed the sorceress to do what the Chief Prophecy had suggested.

Prophecy spells have long been regarded as deceptive because of their extremely low accuracy and ambiguous predictions. In case of indecision, using the prophecy spell to measure, this behavior is actually similar to throwing dice, which belongs to the kind of doctor who is in a hurry.

However, Karma Lofe has faith in Romanita. Because in the past years, time has proven more than once that the one of his lovers is always right, no matter how unbelievable the prophecy is, causing six of the eight chiefs to doubt the content of the prophecy and refuse to cooperate.

This time...... This time it's about the survival of the whole of Hoinheim! If the "miracle that has been born" is not achieved, then the existence of Hoinfheim may be a thing of the past forever!

- Naka, my love. I pray from the bottom of my heart. Hopefully, it's still you who is right this time......
