Chapter 187 Battle
Through Shadow Servant, David knows the number of 'Hunter Mantis' better than anyone here, and his high spirit allows him to make analysis and judgments quickly.
Three hundred and twenty-four 'Hunter Mantis', this number is very accurate, but also makes David very worried.
You must know that any 'Hunter Mantis' is not easy to deal with. Although the armored warriors here are very strong, it is not a problem to deal with one or two or even three or four 'Hunter Mantis' at the same time, but it is impossible to do a one-to-one match.
However, David didn't see Helena's nervousness. Although Helena couldn't directly see the number of 'Hunter Mantis' like him, but with the result of the scanning device, I believe that Helena's judgment is not much different from the real number. gap.
"The big shield armorers pay attention to the left and right directions of defense. The front is blocked by four warhammer armorers. Bell, you are responsible for assisting!" Helena ordered in a deep voice, she turned her head to look at David and said: "Little brother, you have to change back. The spear is gone, I need your attack power!"
"No problem!" David nodded.
Compared with the sniper rifle that can only attack once in a few seconds, the use of melee weapons is the best choice to deal with this kind of 'Hunter Mantis' with weak defenses but a large number.
David put the 'Godolfin's Wrath' back on his back, took out the second-grade spear divided into several sections and assembled it.
"Little brother, it's up to you to withstand the middle position!" Helena said to David, pointing to the frontal position when he saw that David had changed his spear.
The speed of the 'Hunter Mantis' is very fast, but the defense is relatively low among the first-level Zerg. This is the enemy that a skilled spear master like David is best at dealing with.
The cooperation between David and the secret service team is very small, especially this kind of complete defense, which mainly depends not on battle formations, but on mutual familiarity.
David stood at the front of the center, so he didn't need to think about the cooperation with the other soldiers, as long as the other soldiers took the initiative to cooperate with David.
"Second sister, what about me?" Furness asked aloud when he saw that Helena had completed all the tasks of the armored soldiers, only he and Bray had no tasks.
"Just stay here for me honestly, and don't make trouble for us!" Helena said to Furness with a stare.
She didn't want to bring Furness on this mission, but it happened that Bray was walking with David. She thought that it would be better for all her colleagues to act together, and she could just use this mission to stimulate Furness.
Let him practice with all his strength.
When there was no danger before, Furness followed the action casually, but now the situation is very dangerous. With Furness's strength, if he is not careful, his life will be in danger.
Furness looked at David, who had reached the center in front of the temporary fortress, and at Bray who was standing behind David. He couldn't help but feel helpless, but his eyes became stronger.
The frontmost 'Hunter Mantis' rushed to the barrier. David thought that this white silk-mesh barrier would not have any effect, but to his surprise, the 'Hunter Mantis' that first touched the barrier was Like a bug entering a cobweb, it got stuck all at once.
The more the stuck 'Hunter Mantis' struggled, the more it was entangled in the white wire mesh.
To be honest, the strength of the white wire mesh could not block the scythe-chain saw limbs of the 'Hunter Mantis', but the viscosity of the white wire mesh made it impossible for the 'Hunter Mantis' to easily remove the wire mesh on his body.
The more than 20 'Hunter Mantis' rushing to the front were caught in the barrier like this, and it would be difficult to escape in a short time.
But the 'Hunter Mantis' is not without wisdom. The latter 'Hunter Mantis' knows the function of the barrier and will not repeat the same mistakes again. They jump over the barrier.
Holding a second-grade spear, David looked at the 'Hunter Mantis' that was getting closer and closer.
His spirit became more and more focused, and he entered a state of mental explosion again.
Three hundred and twenty-four 'Hunter Mantis', more than 20 of them were trapped in the barrier. The rest of the 'Hunter Mantis' were divided into three parts. The largest part was about 200 head-on attacking the temporary fortress, and the other two Some fifty or so of each attacked the left and right sides of the temporary fortress.
Helena was standing beside David, and there were four other Warhammer armorers, plus Bray who couldn't make a shot, there were seven armored soldiers in total.
There are more people on the left and right, eight armored soldiers each, and there are armored soldiers holding a second-grade large shield in front, and it is not a problem to deal with fifty 'hunter mantis' head-on.
The armored soldiers here are the most elite armored soldiers of the rock star, especially with many second-grade weapons, which make the armored soldiers more powerful.
Don't underestimate the armored soldier holding a second-grade large shield. In any armored group, as long as there is such a large shield armored soldier, its defense will be greatly improved.
It also allows the other soldiers in the group to concentrate on attacking, thereby increasing the attack power of the group.
The last time Helena took the special team in the wild of Na'an City, if there was a soldier holding a second-grade large shield at that time, it would be much easier to deal with the 'Tear Flying Insect'.
Therefore, when fighting against the Zerg, each group will be equipped with at least one large shield armorer.
Helena was very relieved on the left and right sides, and she was most worried about the two hundred 'Hunter Mantises' in front of her.
The trump card in her heart is actually Bray. Don't look at Bray's inability to shoot, but as long as he does his best, his combat power will be very terrifying. Although it is not as powerful as the extraordinary, it is far superior to the peak armor.
Of course, the price of Bray's shot is physical damage. Although he has the "Holy Water of Ageless", Helena still doesn't want Bray to shoot easily.
Now it depends on her cooperation with David, whether she can solve so many 'Hunter Mantis' with a faster speed.
The frontal 'Hunter Mantis' approached. Although their speed was not as fast as the flying zerg 'tearing worm' that David encountered before, but among the zerg running on land, it was the fastest that David encountered. of.
Coupled with the gravity of the Rock No. 6 resource star, the speed of the 'Hunter Mantis' has reached 200%.
But in David's eyes, the running 'Hunter Mantis' moves slowly, and he can clearly see every tiny movement of each 'Hunter Mantis'.
Unfortunately, his mental outburst only strengthened his ability to observe, analyze, and judge, but not his own speed.
This made his speed unable to keep up with his observation, analysis, judgment, and made him unable to exert these enhancements brought about by his mental outburst.
However, master-level spear mastery can also make up for some speed effects through skills.
Due to the role of the temporary fortress, every 'Hunter Mantis' who wanted to attack the armored soldiers on the temporary fortress needed to use a bounce to jump to the top of the temporary fortress fifteen meters high.
In this way, the 'Hunter Mantis' lost a lot of attacking skills, and during the jumping process, the body of the 'Hunter Mantis' was suspended in the air, without any leverage, and most of its responsiveness to attacks would be lost.
Just when the first batch of twenty-five 'Hunter Mantis' jumped up, the second-grade spear in David's hand moved first.
The 2.5-meter spear was several times longer than the warhammers in the hands of the soldiers beside him, so David's attack was also the first to launch.
David hooked the edge of the temporary fort with his back feet, stepped down with his front feet, and his body was completely level with the top of the temporary fort, which allowed him to get closer to the jumping ‘Hunter Mantis’.
The 'Hunter Mantis', which has no evasion ability in the air, is a fixed target in David's eyes.
All he needs to do is stab the second-grade spear into the heart of the Hunter Mantis and kill them.
David has a master spear mastery, and this attack is too easy for him.
The second-grade spear pierced, retracted, pierced, and retracted like lightning. In the process, his body also stood upright on the temporary fortress with the force of his front and rear legs.
It's just that the twenty-five 'Hunter Mantis' that jumped up at this time have already been killed by ten.
Helena shouted loudly, and the second-grade warhammer in her hand smashed into a 'Hunter Mantis', smashing the 'Hunter Mantis' who could not dodge in mid-air, and with the feedback of this blow, the warhammer continued to attack the side. The 'Hunter Mantis'.
The four warhammer armorers beside her, waving their warhammers in their hands, blocked the direction in which the 'Hunter Mantis' jumped up.
Their goal is clear, to prevent the 'Hunter Mantis' from falling on the temporary fortress.
Helena was already attacking the third 'Hunter Mantis'. The first two 'Hunter Mantis' were smashed by her and were hit by a second-grade warhammer. Where the two 'Hunter Mantis' were hit, the outer shell and the inside were All were shattered, and the undead also lost their combat effectiveness.
Without waiting for them to repel this group of 'Hunter Mantis', the second batch of 'Hunter Mantis' jumped up, and the number reached fifty. The rest of the 'Hunter Mantis' did not jump, but used their jumping limbs to climb up. climb.
Bray, who was standing on the side and didn't make a move, gently loosened his palm and squeezed it tightly again. The second-grade warhammer was in his hand. In this case, he was ready to start.
In David's Soul Fortress, he threw a drawn 'Sleeping Pattern' out, targeting a 'Hunter Mantis' climbing below.
The 'Hunter Mantis' was only five meters away from David. Not to mention that the 'Sleeping Pattern' was extremely concealed and undetected, even if it was discovered, the 'Hunter Mantis' had no time to avoid it.
At the same time, the second-grade spear in his hand was no longer mastered with a spear. Instead, he regarded the second-grade spear as a long sword, using a long sword to master, and 80% of the proficient longsword master, to deal with these in the air The 'Hunter Mantis', which has no evasion ability, is no weaker than the master spear, which can only pierce straight.
Master Spear Mastery is more suitable for one-on-one combat, and David's Spear Mastery specializes in stabbing, which can only target one at a time.
At this moment, David changed the way of fighting. The second-grade spear danced in the air, drawing elegant arcs.
If it is a stronger enemy, or on the flat ground, the effect of David's fighting method will not be very good, mainly because the spear is too long, and it is not enough to exert the power of the long sword.
However, the special geographical environment here made David's fighting method have a great effect.
When the dozens of 'Hunter Mantis' jumped in front of him, they encountered blue spears. The 'Hunter Mantis' that was swept away by the spear head was the 'Hunter Mantis' whose body was cut open and was hit by the spear. Although the mantis' was not injured, it couldn't jump to the original target and fell back to the ground one by one.
In just a few seconds, the 'Hunter Mantis' that jumped into the air head-on was blocked by David alone.
Among them, there were as many as eighteen 'Hunter Mantis' killed by David, which was determined by the number of souls he absorbed through the Shadow Servant.
Bray's grip on the second-grade warhammer was loosened again, and David's response made him not need to shoot immediately.
"David, good swordsmanship!" Helena said with a big laugh.
From her eyes, she could naturally see that what David used just now was not the spear master, but the long sword master.
After countless years of growth, the soldiers of the Interstellar Federation have derived these weapons today, and there will never be any useless weapons.
Although few people use the long sword to master, among the peak armored soldiers who are hopeless to advance, there are still many peak armored soldiers who have mastered the long sword. The reason is that the long sword is more suitable for lightness and speed.
This will have a huge advantage in dealing with an enemy without a speed advantage.
As for the 'Hunter Mantis' just now, because it jumped in mid-air, it completely lost its speed advantage, unable to dodge, unable to adapt, which made the mastery of the long sword into the most effective fighting method.
Of course, this fighting method is only suitable for David, and there are almost no armorers who can specialize in the mastery of several weapons.
A soldier's energy is limited, he needs time to practice physical skills, and he needs time to earn training resources. However, even if he has a talent for any weapon, he needs years of uninterrupted practice.
No matter how good the talent is, if you spend your energy on mastering multiple weapons, compared with the same talent, if you focus your energy on mastering one weapon, the gap between the two will be huge. Mastery will make his mastery of weapons more eloquent than refined.
Among all the armored warriors Helena has seen, only David can master a variety of weapons, and even reach the master level in spear mastery.
David did not respond to Helena, and his spirit at this time was attracted by the 'Sleeping Pattern' he just cast.
In the soul of the 'Hunter Mantis', the 'Sleeping Pattern' absorbed the power of the soul of the 'Hunter Mantis', and the 'Sleeping Pattern' also turned into countless tiny 'bewitching patterns' at the same time.
It seems that the 'Hunter Mantis' has no resistance to the ability of 'Spiritual Sleep', which comes from bewitching brain worms. Since the 'Sleeping Pattern' entered the soul of the 'Hunter Mantis', it has not received the slightest resistance.
And the speed at which the 'Sleeping Pattern' was transformed into countless tiny 'bewitching patterns' was faster than the effect that David had cast on the armored soldiers before.
In just one breath, the 'hunter mantis' was controlled by the 'bewitching pattern'.
There was a strange connection between this 'Hunter Mantis' and David because of the 'bewitching pattern'.
At this time, the ‘Hunter Mantis’ climbing upwards was about to reach the top of the temporary fortress.
