Chapter 1117: Stalemate and Breakthrough
The last ghost, because he had devoured the same kind of true spirit seed, or it can be said to be divine, compared with the previous ghosts, there was a big change. As a result, the methods that Ye Zan and others used on those ghosts became less effective on this ghost, and the battle situation fell into a stalemate for a while.
The brothers and sisters of the Lin family and Qi Qianjun, who had been watching the battle outside, saw that the plan did not seem to be going well, so they asked Ye Zan if they needed to wait for others to fight. However, the three of them are only in the realm of the primordial spirit after all, even if they have the power of the Tao realm like the plug-in, it is impossible to compete with the opponents of the heavenly level.
On Ye Zan's side, after listening to Lin Mumu's question, he didn't have much worry on his face. Instead, he said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's just a little more difficult than before, but it's still a little bit more difficult. It is far from the time when we are helpless. Moreover, if there is really nothing to do there, you will have no effect going up, and you should think about finding a way to escape here first."
In Ye Zan's words, he didn't mean to belittle them. After all, the Lin family siblings and Qi Qianjun were really their own people. It is precisely because he is one of his own that he can speak so bluntly, so there is no need to worry about their misunderstanding. At the same time, it was precisely because he was one of his own that he told them the worst possibility so that they could be prepared.
"If you say that...then my sister and I will go get ready?" Lin Mumu heard what Ye Zan meant, and asked again in a low voice.
Ye Zan nodded and said with a prepared plan, "Well, I'm not afraid of 10,000, just in case. Although the situation is not that bad, it's always good to plan ahead."
Lin Mumu didn't say anything more, and turned to look for her elder sister Lin Miaomiao. The two siblings secretly prepared for a possible retreat. Of course, the preparations made by the siblings must not be too obvious, so as not to affect everyone on the battlefield. If he could have won, but his morale was shaken because of this, it would be self-defeating instead.
After explaining to Lin Mumu, Ye Zan's attention remained on the battlefield, commanding the native heroes to cooperate with the enemy while maximizing the power of the eye of insight. As long as there was even a chance, he didn't want to choose to run away. He had already walked ninety miles, and only the last few steps were left. How could he just give up like this.
Under Ye Zan's command, the native heroes on the battlefield have all switched from offense to defense at this time. This defense, of course, is not a purely passive defense, but to continue to surround the ghost with a defensive posture. That ghost, feeling the influence of the trap on itself, refused to stay in the trap area honestly, always thinking of breaking through and getting out of here. What the native heroes have to do is to constantly block the ghost's breakthrough and keep the ghost in the trap.
Of course, this switch from offense to defense completely gave up the attack on ghosts, which meant that it would no longer consume ghosts. There is a saying "If you defend for a long time, you will lose". After all, defense is only a temporary solution and cannot last for a long time. The power of the ghost,
It is almost endless, but the power of the indigenous heroes is limited, and it is the indigenous heroes who can't afford it in the end.
For Ye Zan's strategy of switching from offense to defense, the indigenous heroes actually couldn't understand in their hearts. They knew very well the power gap between themselves and Ghost, so they naturally knew that defense would not last long. Fortunately, with the tacit understanding cultivated through previous cooperation, and the trust that Ye Zan gained in exchange for his frankness, even though they didn't understand Ye Zan's intentions, they still followed the instructions.
As a result, the situation on the battlefield changed. All the indigenous heroes participating in the battle no longer "brainless output", but built layers of barriers around the ghosts. The energies shining with various colors of light surrounded the ghost from all directions, as if a colorful giant egg had condensed in this area. Of course, due to the continuous breakthrough of the ghost, the shell of this dome is also constantly broken, and then it is made up by the indigenous heroes, and then broken and made up again, and the cycle continues.
Ye Zan's insightful eyes can see through the obstacles of those energy barriers and clearly see the ghosts surrounded by them. In the eyes of insight, the energy circulation on the ghost's body, as well as the constant flickering of the power of the law, are all clearly presented. Although, from the eyes of insight, the structure of the ghost body is still the same structure, and the cycle is still the same cycle, but the changes are much more complicated than those ghosts before.
"Lagris retreats, Ignatz fills in!" Ye Zan was observing the ghost, but he did not delay commanding the native heroes. When he saw someone's power consumption was too high, he still commanded the reserve team to go up in time. replace before.
The golden holy sword Lagris looked a little embarrassed at this time. Although there were no serious wounds on his body, his whole body seemed to be fished out of the water. Sweat continued to ooze from his body, and his golden curly hair was sticking to his head in strands, and the body was constantly filled with water vapor, just like coming out of a hot spring pool in the cold winter.
Lagres didn't go to rest, but came straight to Ye Zan after leaving the battlefield, and asked out of breath, "Ye, why did you suddenly change your strategy? If we continue to defend like this, I'm afraid we will only wear ourselves down in the end." ?”
While on the battlefield, although the native heroes had doubts in their hearts, and although they had a communicator that could talk to Ye Zan, no one directly raised any objections to the command. On the one hand, they have a certain amount of trust in Ye Zan, emotionally they don't think Ye Zan will cheat them. On the other hand, they also know that in battle, questioning the commander is the most stupid behavior.
Therefore, it was only now that Lagris came to Ye Zan after he got off the battlefield, and asked Ye Zan why.
"Before, when you just fought against each other, you should have experienced that the original method is no longer useful. If we continue to attack ghosts blindly as before, I am afraid that ghosts will only escape from the trap. You should also know that the effect of this trap on ghosts cannot be ignored." Ye Zan continued to direct the battle while distracting himself from answering Lagris' questions.
LaGris nodded, recalling the feelings of the previous fight, and said: "Indeed, this ghost is very different from the original ones. Our original methods are indeed difficult to work. However, if we turn to defense in this way, even if we can keep the ghost in the trap In the middle, we can't hold on for too long!"
"I know this problem, so I've been trying to find a solution. I just hope that you can buy me more time." Ye Zan said frankly, without giving any false hope.
"This... I hope you can think of a solution to it in time!" Lagris also looked very helpless when he heard Ye Zan's answer. He couldn't blame Ye Zan for anything. After all, Ye Zan had done a lot of good things so far with his soul-level strength. Of course, he really hoped that Ye Zan could come up with a better way, although the hope seemed slim, but he couldn't think of a way.
The battle on the battlefield continued, and time passed little by little. Lagris, who was replaced before, also joined the battle again waving the golden holy sword. Moreover, as the battle progressed, the indigenous heroes no longer had any reserve teams, and everyone joined the battle. Only Alan Dillon, the spear of the earth, still maintains the ground outside the battlefield, protecting the jammers underground, but it is not as easy as everyone on the battlefield.
Although the battle was very difficult, there were no casualties on the side of the indigenous heroes. Ye Zan's command has always been based on the important premise of avoiding casualties. After all, as long as a person is alive, he can still play a role after recovering for a while, but even if he is dead, he can't play any role at all. The reason why there is no reserve team is because after fully turning to defense, there is almost no need to consider the restraint of attributes, so everyone is sent to the battlefield.
Of course, without the reserve team, it also means that the situation has reached the most critical moment, and it is impossible for Ye Zan to delay any longer.
Fortunately, after observing and analyzing this period of time, Ye Zan is not completely fruitless here, and the way to deal with it has gradually formed in his heart. After some calculations and simulations, Ye Zan suddenly gave instructions to all the indigenous heroes to expand the encirclement to the limit in an instant.
Although the native heroes didn't understand Ye Zan's intentions, they still strictly followed the instructions out of trust, and everyone retreated instantly while maintaining the pressure on the ghost. As they retreated, the center where the ghost was located was immediately given up a wider space, leaving the ghost there alone.
Due to the expansion of the encirclement, the barriers that the indigenous heroes could build naturally became much weaker. But at this time, facing the obviously thin barrier, the ghost did not continue to break through, but stood in the center as if a little at a loss.
Of course, the existence of ghosts who act on instinct is actually not easy to be overwhelmed, after all, they don't need to think too much like people. The real reason why it stopped in place was that Ye Zan also adjusted the underground jammer while the native heroes retreated.
Ye Zan adjusted the fluctuation frequency of the jammer, turning the interference effect on the ghost energy body into a stable and cohesive effect. In other words, what Ghost feels now is no longer the oppressive and uncomfortable feeling caused by the interference of the body, but an extremely comfortable feeling on the contrary.
"Woo!" The ghost standing in the encirclement raised its head and let out a long howl, completely having no intention of breaking out.
"What... what's going on?" Seeing the situation, the Sun King asked Ye Zan through the communicator very puzzled. After all, people like them cannot feel the energy waves emitted by that kind of jammer, and it is naturally difficult for them to understand the changes of ghosts.
"Don't worry, I just adjusted the trap and turned the weakening of the ghost into an enhancement, so the ghost is enjoying it now." Ye Zan also directly transmitted the response to the Sun King to all the indigenous heroes through the communicator .
Hearing Ye Zan's response, not only the Sun King was stunned, but the other indigenous heroes were also very puzzled. Fortunately, through the previous incidents, they had more trust in Ye Zan, so they didn't suspect Ye Zan had ulterior motives. But even so, they couldn't understand Ye Zan's approach. The ghost is already strong enough, so how can they help it strengthen?
"Ye, what's going on, that ghost is already very difficult to deal with, why do you still do this?" Sun King asked very puzzled, with a hint of complaint in his tone. That's right, he believed that Ye Zan would not harm them, but he couldn't figure out what Ye Zan was going to do, so he instinctively thought of the bad.
"Don't worry, there is a reason for me to do this, and I will never make fun of your lives. Now, you just need to stay around and use this time to adjust your status as soon as possible." Ye Zan didn't explain too much, after all, he explained It's not something that can be done in a few words, and those indigenous heroes still need to hurry up to recover.
After listening to Ye Zan's words, although the indigenous heroes didn't get the answers they wanted, they still followed Ye Zan's instructions to rest and adjust. Seen from a distance, the aboriginal heroes formed a circle, like a circle of light bulbs suddenly cut off, and all the energy lights on their bodies were extinguished at once. The entire battlefield, the entire trap area, suddenly fell into a strange silence from the constant roar before.
Looking at the center of the trap area, the ghost seems to be enjoying it very much at this time, with its legs together and arms spread, hanging in the midair like a flying fairy. Under the reaction of the trap jammer, the cohesion of the ghost itself has been greatly improved, and it continuously absorbs the energy of those broken ghosts from the surroundings, so that the black mist in all directions keeps pouring in like a tide.
As a large amount of ghost energy surged in and was absorbed and condensed into the body, ghost's body was seen expanding circle after circle. After all, its energy body density is limited, it is impossible to compress energy infinitely, it can only increase the energy body accordingly, just like a balloon that is continuously inflated.
Seeing this situation, the indigenous heroes seemed to have guessed Ye Zan's plan. Looking at the ghost that had swelled several times, the Sun King asked Ye Zan through the communicator: "Ye, is your plan to break it?"
That's right, anyone who sees this scene will probably think of the result, that is, the ghost greedily absorbs power continuously, and finally blows itself up with a "boom". Although, in the eyes of the indigenous heroes, this idea seems a bit absurd, but considering that the ghost itself has no wisdom, it seems that it is really possible.
"Explode it? Almost!" Hearing Sun King's guess, Ye Zan couldn't help being a little funny, but he continued: "Strictly speaking, it is not to explode it, and it is impossible to explode it. However, I The plan has something to do with this, after all, it is aimed at the stability of its energy body."
