Chapter 111 Operation Plan
Chapter 111 Operation Plan
Hu Meng breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Wu Ou and went up to ask him questions.
After all, seeing that Wu Ou didn't fly back, but instead came down the mountain in this way, I felt a sense of 'anxiety'!
Could it be that the situation on the mountain is so bad that even Wu Ou doesn't dare to fly back so openly?
"I know what's going on up the mountain now. By the way, are Commander Liang and his men there?" Wu Ou put away his skis and looked at Hu Meng.
Su Xue jumped down. "Of course they are. They are preparing to set up a camp halfway up the mountain as a preliminary line of defense."
I really don't understand why they would do that. If a whole herd of beasts from the mountain were to charge down, how strong would the camp have to be to hold them off?
After listening to her words, Wu Ou understood Commander Liang's meaning after only a moment's thought.
"They probably have their own judgment! But now is not the time to talk about that; we need to discuss and come up with a solution to the situation on the mountain as soon as possible."
Upon arriving at the camp, Lin Keli and Xiong Lei, as representatives of the Baicanshan base, were already waiting there.
"What's the situation on the mountain? Did you see any ruins?" Qiao Yuwei asked.
"I saw it, and I also encountered the guardian energy beast there. It was at the high level of level one. Just like how a beast king can lead a herd of beasts, it also influenced those beast kings, gathering them in the mountaintop area to form a defense."
The only saving grace was that they reached the summit first, thus drawing the enemy's attention.
"Really? This is great news! While they're getting beaten up, let's take them down in one fell swoop..." Before Xiong Lei could finish speaking, Lin Keli covered his mouth.
"Um, Dr. Wu, please continue." He gave an apologetic smile.
Wu Ou nodded. "Once we start attacking the mountaintop area, if we can't quickly eliminate all those beast kings, we will indeed be overwhelmed by the beast horde ordered by the guardian eagle-lion."
Furthermore, although it possesses formidable strength, its range of activity is limited, likely confined to the area of the Heavenly Crystal Pool.
As Wu Ou spoke, he drew a simple map.
"That's it, so we only have one chance to launch a surprise attack." He then drew out the defensive area of the dozen or so beast kings on this side.
"There are two tiger beast kings. Although I killed one, I cannot rule out the possibility that the first-level beast king will devour its flesh and blood to achieve rapid advancement."
What remained were a cow, a deer, two bears, two wild boars, two snakes, and two roe deer.
"A silly roe deer?!"
The previous names were all fine, but when the last name was announced, everyone looked surprised.
After all, this kind of thing is very famous in the North—famously stupid!
One type is capable of running away from danger, then returning to see what happened, and then being killed.
Or perhaps, he ran too fast and crashed into a tree and died.
In short, while other animals in the north may have become endangered due to past overhunting, a large part of this species really did die out of sheer stupidity.
So, when people hear this name, they picture a little deer hopping and skipping on the snow like a happy deer, then bumping into a tree.
Or, after being hit, it might look at its attacker with a blank, innocent expression.
By all accounts, it doesn't seem like a creature with particularly strong offensive capabilities, so how could it become the Beast King!
Wu Ou also expressed his doubts, saying that now is not the time for the energy concentration to increase further in the future, and the main way to become the Beast King is through fighting.
This is why carnivores are more likely to produce a "king of beasts" compared to herbivores.
"It's probably related to the energy tides that occurred after the ruins appeared!" That was all he could say, since it seemed to be the most reasonable possibility at the moment.
This reason made everyone nod in agreement.
Just lucky!
"So, your suggestion is to use their territories as a breakthrough point?" Leng Yue immediately grasped the key point.
Wu Ou nodded, giving her an approving look.
"That's right. Even if they become the Beast Kings, their actual combat strength is still the weakest among these twelve Source Beasts."
"Around them, there are mostly source energy beasts like foxes and rabbits, which can be suppressed even by cluster firepower." Wu Ou said, looking at Lin Keli.
Lin Keli quickly replied, "We have no problem. The team and equipment will be ready tonight!"
"That's incredibly efficient. Did they reach some kind of agreement with the capital?"
Wu Ou sighed inwardly, but since he had agreed, that was fine.
"Moreover, if we cut in from here, the other side is the defensive zone of the Serpent King, which will not pose a threat to our assault team for the time being."
This way, they would have the power to break into the Heavenly Crystal Pool and confront the Eagle Lion directly!
As he spoke, he drew a line with water on the table, the end of which landed on the spot representing the ruins of the Tianjing Pool!
"Level 1 advanced, our side..." Lin Keli showed a hint of worry.
He knew Wu Ou's strength, but he wasn't even at the top level!
Do we really have to rely on Qiao Yuwei, the scientist, to fight this battle?
"Give me some practical equipment, and I can do it." Qiao Yuwei showed no sign of backing down.
"Wu Ou, what is the actual strength of the Eagle Lion you mentioned?" Leng Yue asked.
When it comes to practical combat ability, if Wu Ou says she's number one, she'd dare to say she's number two.
Qiao Yuwei?
A high level does not necessarily mean high combat power.
Being able to wield a greatsword doesn't mean you can use it well.
Moreover, she hadn't had a proper battle since her breakthrough, and she wanted to test some of her combat philosophies and also assess the effectiveness of some weapons in actual combat.
"Besides the Beast King's aura, it can fly, possesses sonic impact capabilities, and can control the air to form airflow, air blades, and even liquefy the air to form a shield."
"Of course, physical strength is also essential, but I wouldn't gain any advantage in a direct confrontation right now." Wu Ou shook his head as he said this, not trying to hide his lack of strength.
"Well, how about we wait until the cannons are brought up before we figure out a way to attack?" Lin Keli suggested through gritted teeth.
Their confidence at the Baicanshan base stems from the fact that heavy artillery production has already resumed.
We can even guarantee that we can hit the Tianjing Pool at the top of the mountain from the mountainside!
However, the fear of damaging the heritage and causing avalanches or landslides could actually create an even greater crisis.
Furthermore, artillery now relies on the impact force and high temperature of explosions to cause damage, rather than the kinetic energy strikes of the past.
Source beasts generally have a strong ability to defend against fire.
As for the explosive impact, I used it when facing the Beast King, and it was able to knock him back and overturn him.
However, unless the impact is caused by a close-range detonation, it is quite difficult to inflict serious injury on it.
Now, the Griffin not only flies in the sky, but also possesses the strength of a high-level Tier 1 fighter, making it even more difficult to launch an effective attack!
However, speaking out is also to show their attitude.
This is their home turf, after all. How can they rely on outsiders like Wu Ou to play the main role?
"If we provide covering fire, we can give it a try..."
