Chapter 198 Breaking the game
If the monk's talisman is a unique chemical reaction phenomenon in this world, then the wizard's attack is the same.
Taoist monks use talisman paper and talisman drawing materials as carriers to trigger chemical reactions, while wizards store various elements on their bodies.
What they are better at is to directly release these things and have an impact on the world and environment. They use the mainstream of the seven elements of wind, rain, thunder, electricity, fog, frost, and snow, as well as some auxiliary means to confuse the opponent's consciousness and create fear. Various skills are used very directly and quickly.
Although they have great limitations compared to the various attack methods of Taoist monks, their skills are more efficient, they are easier to practice, and they can also specialize in one.
For example, Wu Kui, the witch power he practices is to focus on enhancing his own vitality. When the soul is strong to a certain extent, he can graft life and share the same body with his natal Gu Centipede.
Although this made his attack power worse and his realm decline, he had puppet technique to supplement his attack power and a strong body to strengthen his defense, making his combat power almost invincible among monks of the same realm.
The wizards in the south are mainly practicing Gu power, while the wizards in the north are mainly practicing witch power. One uses external objects such as Gu insects as carriers, and the other uses themselves as carriers, each with their own strengths and weaknesses.
For example, although the wizard in the south has strong attack power and is weird and changeable, as long as you kill his natal insect, he will be almost the same as a mortal.
Although the wizards in the north have a simple attack and do not have the natural advantage of the worm, in the battle, if you don’t chop him into pieces, you can’t die anymore, so don’t easily think that you have won.
Even after his death, you need to burn his bones to ashes, otherwise it will easily cause plagues and strange diseases.
This is some useful information Huo Hai got after months of interrogation of Su Hela.
Of course, this information is not applicable to the Heavenly Wizard.
They are born with special abilities. They do not need to practice and have abilities that may not be accessible to monks. In addition to being able to change the environment of the heavens like great wizards, they can also cause physical reactions to hurt people, such as brain wave attacks.
As for their auxiliary means, they are similar to hypnosis, mind reading, etc., which can achieve their goals by influencing the human nervous system.
This not only requires profound knowledge, but also some talent. According to Huo Hai's inference, their brains should be different from normal people, with slightly deformed facial features and even deformed body shapes, which are the true appearance of Tianwu.
Because, this is how some strange geniuses in later generations are.
Sure enough, after Huo Hai called them ugly monsters, he was subjected to even more fierce attacks, which made him confirm this.
The severe pain made Huo Hai shake on the bed like a chaff. When Zhang Ning, who was trying to awaken him, forced his eyelids to open his eyelids, only the whites of his eyes were seen.
"What should I do? If he continues like this, he will die."
Many generals had been gathered by Zhang Ning in Huo Hai's camp, and at this time, the noise outside the camp was heard again.
"Reported that some people approached the military camp."
"Be prepared for the battle! Remind the soldiers that these people are no longer normal people. Before they die completely, don't be ruthless and relax your guard."
Zhang Ning issued military orders without hesitation according to the strategy agreed in advance. The generals took orders to tie the armor and led their troops out of the camp, but Zhao Yun stayed in the barracks and looked at Huo Hai worriedly.
"Since my brother can withstand the first spell and killing technique of the Heavenly Wizard, it proves that the Heavenly Wizard will find it difficult for the Heavenly Wizard to kill him in a moment.
However, in extreme pain for a long time, people's spirit may collapse. We must react without forcing the Huns Heavenly Witch to appear. At least we must slow down their attacks and let the elder brother breathe a sigh of relief." Zhao Yun made an opinion to Zhang Ning.
"According to Mr. Tian's plan, Chu Yan should have led the Qifeng Rider to wander around Lishicheng, attracting the people in the area who were mobilized by Tianwu to follow them and consume the physical strength of these people.
Unfortunately, our number of soldiers in the middle is too large to use their guerrilla warfare method to directly exhaust those who are hypnotized by dreams. Zilong, if you don’t go outside to prepare for the war at this time, can you break the deadlock?”
"If our army can withdraw from the attack range of Tianwu, the soldiers will no longer need to attack ordinary people controlled by dreams.
In the words of my elder brother, such killing is not conducive to the physical and mental growth of the soldiers. After all, many of them are still us Han people. If they can, they should try not to kill them." Zhao Yun said.
Zhang Ning shook his head and said, "Retreat is useless. Tianwu will continue to follow up. The more he goes to Bingzhou, the more Han people they mobilize, and we will be more embarrassed.
Moreover, this war is mainly to kill the Xiongnu Tianwu. Otherwise, even if we occupy the land here in the future, it will be useless. Once the army evacuates, these Tianwu will launch a curse and kill them, which can easily kill the civil servants and generals left in the local area, and then control the local people through dream art."
"Even if the Heavenly Witch is difficult to deal with, there will definitely be a way to restrain them. Otherwise, the Huns would not have hid in the Hexi land and had already entered the Central Plains. However, we have not found a way to restrain them yet.
So, I suggest retreating first and then marching after the first snowfall in Hexi, so that we can find their traces.” Zhao Yun insisted on his opinion.
"The army will only arrive here for half a month when it is marching back and forth. It will consume a lot of food and supplies. Moreover, once heavy snow falls, our marching speed will slow down and the maneuver power will decrease. This is not a good thing for us who are trapped within the attack range of the Tianwu." Zhang Ning said with a puzzled look on his face.
"Why, let's ask the military advisor to help analyze?" Zhao Yun suggested to Zhang Ning again.
"No need to ask, I'm here." Tian Feng, who was exhausted, walked in from outside the tent and said.
"The military advisor is back, is there any progress in Lishicheng?" Zhang Ning said happily when he saw Tian Feng.
"From the signal sent by the fireworks, everything went smoothly, but the Hun Tianwu did not show up, so the method Zilong just said was good." Tian Feng replied.
"But, the army began to retreat before they saw the Huns. This is because of the unfavorable morale of the army." Zhang Ning said worriedly.
Tian Feng smiled and shook his head, "I'm not talking about the suggestion of retreat, but the suggestion of using the snow to search for the hiding place of Tianwu. You must know that with monks here, it's not difficult to snow. Let's just ask Master Ge to draw more talismans."
"Use a layer of snow to cover a radius of 300 miles? This is too expensive!" Even Zhao Yun, who came up with this solution, couldn't help but frown.
"The weather here is already very cold, and it is not difficult to use talismans to snow. Moreover, compared with 300,000 gods, the investment in some talisman materials is worth it." Tian Feng explained to the two.
"If the heavy snow can be so thick that ordinary people are struggling, it is of course the best. However, this may freeze many people to death." Zhao Yun said with some confusion.
"Bingzhou is bitter and cold, especially near the grassland. People here have long been used to wind and snow, and it is unlikely that they will be frozen to death. The only thing we are worried about is that they will starve to death. Therefore, after centralized management, we still need to help them with some food. The 50,000 army eats food for three months and gives more than 300,000 people, and they can finish it in less than a month." Tian Feng pointed out the key point.
"How can we be sure that after heavy snow traps this area, we can find the Xiongnu Tianwu?" Zhang Ning raised his doubts.
"The Heavenly Witches should not fly. If they want to continue to consume with us, they must have food to replenish their body consumption. As long as they come out to find food, they will leave traces on the snow. We only need to send sleds to search for traces on the snow. As long as there are traces of movement outside the military standard sleds in the snow, we will basically know their range of activities, gradually surrounding them and narrowing them, and then we can find them." Tian Feng thought for a moment.
"But what if they are mingling among the crowd? Moreover, they have dreams that can control other people to create traces of activity to disguise." Zhang Ning raised his own question again.
"What we want is this effect, because the place where we gather people is in the city, mainly Lishi City. Only the people who take shelter in the city can get food distribution." Tian Feng explained again.
"So, this strategy was the last move of a warning plan before. Chu Yan ran around Lishi City, just to let the heavenly witch gather people and give them the illusion that they could fish in troubled waters there. In fact, Lishi City had already laid a net of heaven and earth?" Zhang Ning looked at Tian Feng and said.
"But we have one last problem to solve. How to tell who is the Tianwu among the large number of people?" Zhao Yun asked.
Upon hearing this, Tian Feng was silent.
But I didn't expect that at this time, Huo Hai was wading on the bed and was moving.
"Heart trouble, please help me rub my scalp." Huo Hai stroked his forehead with his hand and said to Zhang Ning.
At this time, he had been attacked by the brain waves of the two heavenly witches dozens of times. He felt that he was about to be unable to bear it, so he forced himself to break free from the dream and woke up.
At this time, I didn't feel anything strange in my body, just the scalp was numb, as if the blood vessels and nerves inside were beating.
However, although there were a lot of discomfort, there were some surprises, that is, Huo Hai felt that his brain's sensing domain was wider. When he closed his eyes, he could only feel a space in front of his forehead, which was the nerve that sensed the main space.
But now, he can sense a lot of places, and the space behind his brain can also be roughly sensed.
This kind of induction is magical. It radiates two or three hundred meters around it like a small radar. The more you close your eyes, the more carefully the sensing it is.
When he opened his eyes, he had some strange reactions. For example, when he saw Zhang Ning, he obviously felt that his body energy was very strong, and when he saw Zhao Yun, he had an instinctive feeling of avoiding danger, which means that he was stronger and could threaten his life.
Moreover, he felt a faint transparent arc-shaped thing shaking in front of his eyes. This should be the effect of brain waves being emitted. It is precisely how this brain wave that emits externally should attack people, but Huo Hai does not know.
After a little experiment, these transparent arcs could actually move with his willpower, reaching a distance of three feet in front of him as far as possible.
"The Tianwu will have obvious external characteristics. Even if it intervenes in the crowd, we can roughly distinguish it." Huo Hai said after adapting to the power of this inaccurate brain wave after a while.
"Have you seen them in your dream?" Tian Feng asked happily.
In this case, the whole thing will be much simpler.
"No, but people like them have abnormal brains, so they either have physical deformities, brain and facial deformities, and their facial features are absolutely incorrect."
