Chapter 237: The canyon is permanent, but the soldiers are ever-changing! (Part )
Zhuge Liang put the back of his hand to his mouth and coughed softly, then asked, "Why? Do you have any objection to me taking a break from my busy schedule and wanting to practice meditation for a while?"
"Taking a break from your busy schedule? I guess you don't even believe that, right?" Wang Yao stared at Zhuge Liang seriously, trying to find out something from his indifferent expression, but the man at the desk hid himself perfectly.
At least, Wang Yao couldn't see it, so he was even more confused.
Logically speaking, Zhuge Liang was definitely the most powerful person in Shu Kingdom in terms of strategy and military force. After all, he was not given the title of military advisor for nothing. If he did not have some skills, he might not have been able to sit in the position of commander-in-chief in Shu Kingdom, where there were many hidden dragons and crouching tigers.
But such a man has never shown up on the front line of the canyon since the last battle against Wu. Even the crucial mid-lane position was given to Luna. Including this war, there is no place for him in the three routes.
It felt like Zhuge Liang had been avoiding war intentionally or unintentionally.
Wang Yao certainly would not plot against Zhuge Liang like Zhang Fei did. After spending some time together, he believed that this devoted man was a principled man who would never collude with the enemy country in secret, let alone do anything to harm the Shu Kingdom.
So Wang Yao couldn't help but think of Zhuge Liang's sick and dying appearance two months ago. Later, it seemed that after a period of recuperation, Zhuge Liang's complexion had recovered, but
"I'm just guessing, do you have any health problems?" Wang Yao asked word by word.
Zhuge Liang looked at Wang Yao calmly, his turquoise eyes flashing with an unfathomable luster. After a moment, he denied it, "No, you think too much. I have something to deal with during this period, so I am too busy to come to the canyon in person."
"Then what are you busy with?" Wang Yao was even more puzzled. In the past two months, Zhuge Liang had often disappeared, apart from instructing him in physical training. Even Wang Yao didn't know where this man had gone or what he had done.
"It's about you." Zhuge Liang said slowly while Wang Yao was slightly stunned: "In fact, although you have been promoted to a hero now, you are not yet a complete one. Do you remember what I told you at the beginning? A tank-like strong body, an assassin's hiding ability, and a wizard's destructive power! You are still lacking the most important skill module as a hero. Of course, you don't have to worry about these, because I have already found the relevant skill modules for you. However, I still need time to analyze the module data. At least I have to break through the technical limitations first, so that the skill modules can perfectly match your fire and body."
"Is that so?" Wang Yao was skeptical. He always felt that Zhuge Liang had not told him something important.
But Wang Yao knew that if Zhuge Liang had something to hide, it would be a waste of time to ask him again. So he had to put the matter aside for the time being, and at the same time couldn't help asking: "So what kind of skills did you find for me? According to what you said, it should be a mage type, right?"
Zhuge Liang kept it a secret: "You will know this later. In my opinion, the skills are pretty good, but the most important thing is that these skills can save your life at a critical moment."
"Haha, really? That's really exciting." Wang Yao's mouth twitched. He couldn't stand Zhuge Liang's habit of always being mysterious, so he had to bring the topic back on track: "But I still don't quite understand your arrangement."
"for example?"
"For example, why did you leave the top lane to me alone? I feel like you're kidding me. Normally, shouldn't Zhang Fei and Huang Zhong be in a group, and Liu Chan be transferred to guard the top lane?"
"Of course I know that this arrangement is the most reasonable, but." Zhuge Liang said patiently: "Thanks to someone, Zhang Fei's grief and anger have made him unsuitable to assist Huang Zhong in the bottom lane in the short term. You know, Zhou Yu, who was born in Jixia Academy like me, is also a guy who is very good at attacking people's minds. With his ability, just two simple sentences are enough to make Zhang Fei, who has an already hot temper, lose his mind. Then you can imagine that when fighting with the Wu State, Zhang Fei, who has exploded in mentality, will inevitably impulsively abandon the fragile shooter and run to tangle with the enemy, which will then give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of, and finally cause the bottom lane to collapse. These things, even before the battle, I can foresee 70% of them."
"That does make some sense." Wang Yao nodded in agreement.
Indeed, whether in the game or in the other world, mentality is often the most important thing. Zhang Fei's mentality has exploded because of the loss of his beloved son. This can be seen in the high-level meeting two days ago. He has become so crazy that he will confront everyone he sees! How can such a person be asked to be an assistant?
At this time, letting Liu Chan, who has strong control skills, assist Huang Zhong may be the best arrangement. After all, the old man is the ADC who needs to be protected. At the critical moment, let him use his ultimate skill to cover the fire. Whether it is defending high ground or attacking towers, he is the most powerful output point. We cannot let Huang Zhong be killed instantly by the enemy in the bottom lane because of carelessness.
After figuring out the key points, Wang Yao immediately began to admire Zhuge Liang. It is definitely not as simple as it sounds to plan and win a battle from afar. It requires rich experience, far-sightedness, and a thorough understanding of the enemy's personality and other information! However, Wang Yao was dismissive of Zhuge Liang's irony: "At the beginning, Zhang Shao repeatedly challenged my bottom line and even wanted to kill me several times. I really couldn't stand it anymore."
Zhuge Liang waved his hand and interrupted, "I am not interested in the grudges between you two, but if this matter is leaked out, it will inevitably bring disaster, so don't talk about it anymore in the future."
"It seems like you were the one who brought this up first?" Wang Yao rolled his eyes. "Even so, the problem is still not solved. Top lane is the pressure line. Do you really want me to guard it alone?"
"Is there a problem? You are no longer the soldier you were before. Although you don't have any skills yet, you should have no problem defending the line."
"What if my identity is exposed?"
"No." Zhuge Liang shook his head and said, "In fact, each of our heroes has a list of heroes officially released by Jixia, which records all the heroes who have been promoted so far. In other words, you are not on that list. So as long as you don't admit it, under the influence of inertial thinking, others will just think that you are just a very special soldier as before."
After a pause, Zhuge Liang suddenly said meaningfully: "What's more, don't you have a Cang Tian Xiang Long by your side? Can't you two heroes even defend one of the top lanes?"
Σ(っ°Д°;)っ.
"You!!" Wang Yao was really scared.
Zhuge Liang even knew that Zhao Yun was a hero?! Damn, is this guy a worm? How much did he know about him?!
Seeing Wang Yao's inexplicable look of shock, Zhuge Liang seemed to have seen through his thoughts and smiled faintly: "It's a little more than you imagined."
Wang Yao, so creepy!
Zhuge Liang said, "I have spies everywhere in the army. Although Zhao Yun is hiding very well, as I said before, I also have a list of heroes in my hand. As long as we compare the characteristics based on the information provided by the spies, it is not difficult to identify him. During the first war against Wei, you and he killed the unparalleled demon of Wei on the road. Do you think I don't know?"
Looking at Zhuge Liang's calm turquoise eyes, Wang Yao's heart could not calm down for a long time: "Then you are not surprised at all?"
"There are still many incredible things and unsolved mysteries on this continent. A dormant hero won't cause much reaction. Moreover..." When Zhuge Liang said this, a hint of sadness inexplicably appeared between his brows: "I have a deep connection with the previous generation of Cang Tian Xiang Long, so I should say that I am both moved and not surprised that his successor will appear in my legion."
At this point, Zhuge Liang seemed tired, and said to Wang Yao who was hesitant to speak: "Okay, there are many things that I can't tell you too much now. If you have no objection to the route planning, you can go down first. I need to take a rest."
"Oh, right."
But before Wang Yao left, Zhuge Liang seemed to suddenly remember something and kept reminding him behind him.
"According to the latest list of heroes I received, Wu State also had a candidate who inherited the flame of a deceased hero some time ago. You have to be careful."
Afterwards, on the third day after the high-level meeting, after three days of mobilization of the army, the Canyon War started as scheduled!
Just like the previous situation, when the three lines of the legion gathered at the teleportation monument outside Jingzhou, the heroes of Shu Kingdom worked together to activate the teleportation matrix. The same steps and procedures, the difference is that Wang Yao no longer has to lead the troops as before, and no longer has to give impassioned pre-war slogans to a group of young and enthusiastic soldiers.
Follow the line of troops into the teleportation matrix and everything proceeds as usual.
However, when passing through the teleportation matrix, a small detail caught Wang Yao's attention.
In the familiar cold feeling, Wang Yao looked up at the endless universe in the matrix, and was suddenly surprised to find that the outline of the mysterious palace in the void was actually the same style as the palace he had visited in his dream when he was promoted in Wolonggang some time ago.
