Chapter 320, Progress in War
War always brings progress.
Whether it is for rat people or humans, in this situation where there is no way to retreat, if you cannot adapt in time, it means death is coming.
The response strategy of the Chaos Cannon was figured out by the group of rat priests who suffered heavy casualties.
There is no need to look for a solution from the earth. The impact of the chaos cannon on the underground structures is too great.
Turn your attention elsewhere.
A messy stone pillar was built, with strange and twisted lines extending on the stone pillar.
Like the prelude to a bloody and twisted strange ritual, these stone pillars.
It's just not the case.
This is the magic pattern, drawn to imitate the complex patterns on the magic instruments of the Youyan tribe.
The rat priests didn't learn much, it was scattered, the function couldn't be clarified, and it was full of loopholes. Yes, this was a strange pattern full of loopholes, an ugly imitation made to imitate the inscriptions of the Youyan people.
But even these imitations were able to successfully resist those elemental chaos cannons that roared down.
A large number of gray sky-like elements gathered on the messy stone pillars.
The only function these ugly imitations can play is to gather various elements in a disorderly manner.
The effect of the patterns engraved on each stone pillar is the same. It gathers elements, gathers the elements in this world, and then piles them all on the top of the stone pillar.
The mottled elemental light became a barrier.
The elemental chaos cannon thrown by the human side is finally no longer so deadly. It will be consumed in advance when it passes through this mottled element, bursting out a raging small elemental tide in the sky.
This is the response method given by the priests of the Big Claw.
A special system that is very difficult to evaluate.
It is difficult to evaluate because it is too simple, but it is special because it is indeed effective.
There are many smart people among the rat people. Even if the rat people as a whole cannot match the Dark Eye humans, they do not have any significant intellectual specialization.
But there are too many ratmen. Even if only one out of 10,000 ratmen can finally have a flash of inspiration, in that innumerable group of ratmen, such flashes can be enough to transform into violent flashes of lightning after being connected together.
This system has no name yet.
Half of it comes from the bold imitation of the ghost-eyed people, and the other half comes from the appropriate use of the structure left by the long claws.
The part that gathers magic power is a bold imitation of the Dark-Eyed Human Race, while the part that inputs energy is a reasonable use of the structure left by the long claws.
Pieces of faint blue bones are inlaid at the bottom of these messy stone pillars. The continuously extracted soul power is the key to stimulating those simple magic inscriptions.
This is an extremely wasteful move. It is too wasteful to use the soul power in this way.
These blue bones are not the ore that contains power on the surface. They are special ores. In essence, these blue bones are plundering the souls of intelligent creatures. They are miserable people who are wailing and unable to escape. .
This is an extremely egregious move.
It is so bad that it may be regarded as the absolute mortal enemy by most gods and gods of good camp.
And the matter of imprisoning the soul is not a subjective move of the rat people.
It was a tragedy spawned by accident.
That's how it was.
Until the rat people gradually tasted the benefits these wailing souls brought to them.
These guys are not good people to begin with.
Dig out the rotten flesh, take out the souls of the pathetic guys, grind them up, and turn them into a force that supports our greatness, maintains our endless offerings to the great gods, and the endless flow of offerings. The gift of falling.
This is what they will do.
Just when the rat warriors in the Eastern Expeditionary Force used a very crude method to deal with the human cannon.
The human jihadi army is also looking for ways to avoid the lightning cannon.
In fact, it is not that difficult to deal with the diffuse blue lightning.
The Skaven's Lightning Cannon is a bit too technical.
It is extremely destructive to intelligent creatures, but its destructive power to the environment and defense measures can only be said to be acceptable.
Compared with the terrifying power of the elemental chaos cannon that can shake the earth.
The lightning cannon could only leave a small dent, and its power barely exceeded those cumbersome and complex terrifying trebuchets that were the painstaking efforts of the Great Claw priests.
What the Jihadists have to deal with more is the diffuse blue lightning.
To be honest, even though this holy war army has gathered a large number of mages from various magic schools and fields, there is still no accurate result as to what the blue lightning that the rat people tinkered with is.
This is something beyond the scope of understanding, and it seems to have an additional damaging effect on mages like them.
If the ordinary Nether-Eyed human beings are hit by this blue lightning and lose their movements for an instant, then if a mage is affected by these blue lightning, the situation will be much more terrifying.
Dark blue lightning lines are climbing up on the head in an orderly manner. The strong mental power brings a certain resistance to the dark blue lightning. Before death, he can make a ferocious expression in pain, or make a miserable cry. Call.
Such a terrifying scene makes the mages avoid these blue lightnings like snakes and scorpions.
But simply, what they want to do is not to completely understand what these dangerous lightnings are, but to find ways to avoid their harm.
Observe, summarize, and think.
This is a famous saying left by a great wizard, and it is also the code of conduct for wizards.
They found a way to deal with it.
The diffused dark blue lightning is not strong enough to penetrate rocks, soil, and wood, which is the basis for avoidance.
A large number of heavy fortresses were built. This was the first thing the Crusades did after filling up the tunnels dug out by the rats.
Although it was not completely convenient to do so, the isolated fortresses could effectively resist the dark blue lightning cannons that the rats kept bombarding, but it also isolated the Crusades into many small parts, which brought some hidden dangers.
Especially when the rats quickly organized another attack.
In the terrifying artillery bombardment of the rat priests who did not care about hurting friendly forces, the fortresses were isolated and quickly fell in the rat attack.
If Caesar had not led the royal knights to the battlefield again without fear, the losses caused by this attack would probably be very tragic.
With bright flags fluttering beside him and tall knights behind him, he came like an angel. Even the terrifying blue lightning was powerless against him.
Yes, the lightning cannon of the ratmen had no effect on Caesar. Although the essence of soul power was extremely high, the divine power was not much inferior. Moreover, he had gathered too many holy objects bestowed by demigods.
What else could be more inspiring than such an existence?
Soon, the ratmen retreated in embarrassment.
