Chapter 370: World Overview

Canyon battlefield.

Under the sky, the wind was cold and snowflakes were flying; looking from a high place, the snow-capped mountains in the wild area were long and continuous, while the three outer roads were covered with thick snow. The coming of winter turned the once lush canyon into a silver-white color that looked like a fairyland.

However, in reality, whether in the era of cold weapons or in modern warfare, fighting in the snow has always been the most difficult, because the bad weather often places a great burden on the troops.

Just like the third wave of soldiers who are now designated to be sent to the top lane.

Although this fully armed federal force of 1,000 men had wrapped themselves in thick cotton clothes under their armor before setting out, the long-distance march in this harsh environment still greatly consumed a certain amount of their energy and physical strength.

Not only that, they finally arrived at the frontline battlefield on the top lane, and they had to immediately engage in battle without even having time to rest, because just as they arrived at the first defense tower on the top lane, an equal number of enemy troops appeared on the opposite side -

The shining weapons flashed a deadly cold light in the sun, and the uniform black iron armor also showed that they were one of the main forces of the Qin State!

This Canyon War, in which the Glory Federation invaded the Great Qin Empire, had already begun for more than three days. Therefore, when the two armies met, there was no need for any prelude. Amidst waves of hysterical roars and shouts, the soldiers holding shields and blades directly launched a terrifying charge, while the magic soldiers wearing cloaks began to wave their staffs -

The sharp sound of breaking through the air resounded through the sky. In an instant, flames filled the sky and smoke covered the ground. The powerful fireballs exploded on the ground, ruthlessly devouring the lives of soldiers on both sides. As soon as the two groups of people with different colors of clothing and armor touched each other, they immediately fell to the ground and began to decline sharply at a terrifying speed!
The clanging of swords and knives was accompanied by sparks and bubbles. A large number of melee soldiers fell to the ground one by one in the fierce clash. Countless hidden arrows were shot back and forth in the staggered collision. People with crazy looks began to roll and wrestle together, fighting for their lives. Roars, screams, blood, and death suddenly filled the entire front battlefield.

"You evil foreign invaders! Die!"

"We fight for our honor! Where is the evil?!"

The two centurions of the opposing sides swung their swords at each other with all their might amidst angry roars. Finally, after giving each other a fatal blow, the two men, who were already seriously injured, fell powerlessly one after another on the snow-covered ground stained red with blood!

Even as an outsider, you can't tell them apart by justice or evil, because they all have their own beliefs; one side fights for the glory of creating peace, the other side fights to protect their homeland. So where is justice? Where is right or wrong? It's just a matter of winners and losers!
After that, less than half an hour had passed, when the last surviving soldier fell down holding a bloody and fatal wound, the result of this desperate battle involving 2000 people was announced; everyone died.

As mortal beings, there will never be a winner among the soldiers, and if their existence is not properly guided, their final outcome will be a meaningless death in the canyon like they are doing now.

The battlefield soon returned to peace.

The corpses and blood on the ground were set off by the silvery white snow, which was so shocking, but it was soon covered by the wind and snow. Then, when a new battlefield was formed, two new troops appeared in the rear.
The endless killing is about to begin again.

But this time, there was an extra short creature in the Qin army.

It is only 1 meter tall and at first glance looks as small as a six or seven-year-old child; but if you look closely, it is not difficult to find that this is not a human being.

Its entire body is made up of finely chiseled wooden humanoid limbs. Even its facial expression is just a smooth wooden board with a carved smiley face. When it follows the Qin soldiers forward, because the joints of its limbs are not as flexible as humans, it hops as it walks. Although it doesn't look cute, it looks very funny.

However, if someone knew its origin, they probably wouldn't even be able to laugh.

Because it was a weapon with destructive mechanism created by Master Luban, one of the chess masters of Jixia Academy, based on the premise that it was contrary to the peace concept advocated by the great sage Mozi.

Mechanical creation-Luban No. 7.

At the same time, on top of an ice peak in the wild area.

Wang Yao, who had been sitting in meditation with his head bowed for three days, finally raised his head slowly when Luban No. 7 appeared on the road. Above the hideous mask of pain, a pair of scarlet blood eyes suddenly emitted a creepy red light.

The time has come!
For the past three days, Wang Yao has been sitting quietly on the top of the mountain and has never shown up on any of the three lanes, because now he no longer needs to personally lead the soldiers to kill the enemy or attack the enemy's defense tower like before.

Different positions determine different thinking.

One day, when you stand at a high enough position, what you understand will become increasingly different, just like Wang Yao now. He will no longer be obsessed with the victory or defeat between small soldiers. As the commander who leads this war, his vision must be focused on the entire battlefield.

Of course, this does not mean that the soldiers are of no help in the war. At least there are examples of winning by relying on the soldiers to steal the home base. However, these are not the results that Wang Yao wants.

Yes, what's the point of just one victory? Wang Yao didn't want to win.

What he really wanted was to use this war to put the heroes of Qin's lineup into a "sleeping" death-like mechanism, that is, to kill all the Qin heroes fundamentally, so as to buy more time for the Federation to capture Jixia Academy later! Therefore, for three days, Wang Yaocai had not made any moves, but just calmly let his soldiers fight against Qin's soldiers to consume them.

After all, this war does not give Wang Yao much time, because the longer the fight lasts, the more risks and changes will follow. Therefore, Wang Yao's ideal situation is to defeat his opponents within 20 days, or even 15 days. If speaking from a gaming perspective, he basically has to decide the outcome within 15 minutes!

If Wang Yao wants to end this war in the shortest possible time, he must first know the distribution of the enemy's heroes, because only by knowing this basic information can he make corresponding offensive strategies; this is the so-called overall situation awareness.

Now, the fighter plane has finally arrived.

After three days of dormant waiting, the heroes of the Qin State finally appeared in the canyon one by one. The current distribution of enemy heroes is as follows.

On the road; Mechanical Creation·Luban No.7.

Middle lane: Eternal Moon·Miyue, Rebellious Bard·Gao Jianli.

Bottom lane: Bian Que, the strange doctor of good and evil, and Ake, the blade of faith.

The above enemy heroes are not the entire strength of the Qin State. As the emperor of Qin, Ying Zheng has not appeared so far, and as the most capable guardian general around Ying Zheng, the ultimate weapon, Bai Qi is still nowhere to be found.

"Is there someone commanding these heroes to fight?" Faced with this situation, Wang Yao just murmured thoughtfully.

An interesting phenomenon that has occurred over the past three days is that the Qin State seems to be waiting for an opportunity.

Obviously, the Qin State also wanted to first figure out who the enemy who suddenly invaded them was and how many heroes there were, and then formulate relevant defense strategies; because except for the bottom lane of the canyon, the other heroes of the Qin State actually only began to show up on the third day, which shows that the Qin State should also be secretly observing its own movements.

However, this invisible contest of endurance ended with Wang Yao having a slight advantage, because the Qin State could not hold back and sent out heroes one after another. Of course, this does not mean that Wang Yao would take it lightly.

Is there someone directing this from behind? Let’s experiment.

After hesitating for a moment, Wang Yao pressed his finger on the edge of his eardrum and actively started the remote communication.

"Musashi."

A hundred miles away from the top lane defense tower, the Sword Master, who was leaning against a tree with his eyes closed, slowly opened his sharp eyes and asked, "What do you want, leader?"

Over the past three days, at Wang Yao's instruction, the four Fuso people had been hiding in the dark corners of sight before the heroes of Qin showed up first.

At this moment, although Miyamoto Musashi's voice was very quiet, Wang Yao could still sense an extremely strong murderous aura from his words, so he immediately said: "The enemy hero that appears outside the first defense tower in the top lane is called Luban No. 7. Please bring Shenmeng Yidao to deal with it. Remember, do your best."

As expected, after Wang Yao's order was received, there was silence for three seconds on the other end of the communication, and then Miyamoto Musashi's long and cold laugh from the bottom of his heart was heard again: "Haha, I'm happy to serve."

It is estimated that the three days of waiting must have made even the sword saint Miyamoto Musashi a little frustrated. After all, for these foreigners who advocate the use of force, their combat creed is to fight if they are not convinced, instead of lying dormant for three whole days before they can go out as they do now.

Afterwards, at the same time Wang Yao hung up the communication, he also headed straight for the hill 100 meters ahead and activated his second skill [Time and Space Travel]. This skill, which was once unique to Zhuge Liang, became even more proficient in his hands.

Amidst the flashing blue light, Wang Yao began to leap up and down between several hills with a strange teleportation technique, and his figure soon disappeared in the vast wilderness.

Why did they target the top lane first? It’s simple, because of the famous saying in the canyon: “We can lose in teamfights, but Luban must die.”

Don't get me wrong, this is definitely not a joke. As the only shooter of Qin Xuanyong, Xiaoludan may seem like a fragile mechanical creation, but it actually possesses absolutely powerful output capabilities, especially its passive skill [Fire Suppression], which allows it to activate the terrifying penetrating strafing mode without limit. This is often enough to cause quite terrifying destructive damage to its own side at critical moments in team battles.

Therefore, no matter when, it is always a good idea to prioritize killing the ADC.

Furthermore, in this alien world where heroes have no summoner skills, although Luban No. 7 has strong output capabilities, it also has two fatal flaws: poor resistance to attacks and no displacement ability.

In this case, who else should we catch if not it?
