The wizard era begins with the alchemist wizard

Chapter 700: Blessing from the Abyss, Cannibalization Strategy

"An enhanced version of the Hades' rules?"

Richard said to himself after knowing the blessing of his divine oath.

The ability of not abandoning anyone is very simple, that is, within the scope of a world, he will lead the souls of all dead believers into the kingdom of God.

After possessing this ability, Richard does not even need to open the kingdom of God. As long as he is in this world, the souls of dead believers will be automatically led into his kingdom of God through the statues of the gods' dimension.

"It saves me a lot of trouble."

These soldiers are different from the Heroic Einherjar, who can automatically return to the Kingdom of God when they die. If they don't have the ability to not abandon anyone, these soldiers will have to be guided by the priests or Richard will open the Kingdom of God before they can enter the Kingdom of God.

The oath was over, and the logistics wizard began to lead the goblins and werewolves to the training ground.

Next, they will train with the Hybrid Legion to adapt to the Hybrid Legion's combat mode.

Once they finish their training, the war, which has been dormant for nearly two years, will start again.

……

Back at headquarters, Richard went back into research mode.

There was no other way. He had to figure out what was going on with him. Moreover, the power of the abyss itself was a very good energy. In-depth research on it would definitely be of great help in future battles.

Through logistics, Richard obtained a batch of research equipment from the rear.

This batch of research equipment is all top-notch stuff, like the Tyrol Energy Mass Spectrometer of the Shaping School, which can measure the structure of energy and modify it to a certain extent; there is also the Multi-Dimensional Soul Sequence Expressor of the Soul School, which can see through the soul state of a creature from the soul structure, and can show hidden injuries and tiny erosions on the soul; the High-Concentration Negative Energy Generator of the Undead School, which can generate negative energy of different concentrations; the Mysterious Detector of the Curse School...

These things are advanced alchemical equipment that can only be used by great wizards of various schools. Many of them incorporate pioneer technology. The cost of any one of them is a fortune that a three-ring wizard cannot earn in his entire life.

In order to exchange for these things, Richard almost gave up half of the micro world's military merits.

After installing these machines, Richard began to study the power of the abyss and his own body.

Time flies, and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

In the past six months, Richard has been busy in front of various machines day and night. Through the data from these instruments, Richard has a deeper understanding of his own body.

He also knew the secrets hidden by the power of the abyss.

"Blessing from the Abyss?"

Looking at the magic book in front of him which contained half a year's data, Richard rubbed his brows and felt a little numb.

People can lie, but data never lies.

The data showed that there was a deeply hidden rune array in his body. After research, it was found that all of these rune arrays were abyss runes.

The array of these runes will produce a linkage reaction with the abyss-eroded part of his soul, thereby providing him with a constant supply of abyss power.

And after confirmation by Ulysses, this is a typical feature of the blessing of the abyss.

"Is the Abyss a dog? I'm not even an Abyss demon, how can I be blessed by the Abyss? Shouldn't I be rejected by the Abyss, or even have its power taken back?"

Richard felt a little headache, the blessing of the abyss was definitely a good thing. But it also meant one thing, that is, he was being targeted by the abyss.

If the dimensional force protecting his soul weakens, the abyss will corrode his soul without hesitation, transforming him into an abyss demon.

"Alas, wizards must not lose this war. Otherwise, without the protection of the wizard dimension, I will inevitably become an abyss demon."

Although becoming an abyss demon was not a bad thing from the perspective of the failure of wizard civilization, after all, he had the blessing of the abyss, and after becoming a demon, he would definitely become the core layer of the abyss.

But becoming a demon of the abyss means the distortion of the mind and the reshaping of the soul.

Was he the same person back then as he is now?
Putting this bad conclusion aside, Richard decided to think about the good side of the Blessing of the Abyss.

The appearance of the Abyss Blessing greatly increases Richard's combat power. By using the power of the Abyss, his various qualities will be further enhanced. And on this basis, he can also use the Abyss Spell to explore the evolution tree of the Abyss.

After countless tens of thousands of years of development in the abyss, the abyss evolution tree has become an extremely magnificent sequence, with almost countless abyss demons of various shapes and forms.

Compared with the Abyss Evolution Tree, the flesh and blood knowledge accumulated by the Physical Corona is just a drop in the ocean.

Compared with the accumulation of a civilization, Corona, a truth wizard who was promoted less than a thousand years ago, is still as immature as a child.

"There are pros and cons, so let's just make do with it for now."

Richard sighed, turned off all the equipment in the laboratory, and then came to the headquarters.

There was peace in the headquarters, and the Galaxy Mayflies were still fighting in silence. However, according to the report of the reconnaissance wizard, the number of Galaxy Mayflies had not increased over the years, but had even shown a decreasing trend in some local areas.

The old wizards of the General Staff believed that the Galaxy Mayflies had defined this world as a marginal world of soldiers, that is, a world that provided soldiers for the main battlefield. The Galaxy Mayflies were a race with a very fast growth cycle. According to the research of the physical corona, the regular Galaxy Mayflies could reach adulthood in about three years. After adulthood, the Galaxy Mayflies would generally become a first-level creature within two years.

If they do not become first-level creatures at this stage, these galactic mayflies will become auxiliary mayflies, responsible for various logistical tasks in the rear.

So generally speaking, the Galaxy Mayfly's offensive cycle is five years.

At this moment, about four years have passed since the last five-year offensive, which means that Galaxy Mayfly will soon launch a new round of offensive.

"How is the training of the Legion going?"

As soon as he entered the command center, Richard went straight to the point.

Abel walked quickly to Richard and said respectfully, "Your soldiers are excellent. They have completed their training in the past six months."

"What about the plan of attack?"

Abel turned sideways and said, "Please come over here. We have developed an attack plan based on your idea."

When they arrived at the map, many wizards from the General Staff came over.

On the map on the wall, the area occupied by wizards is only one-fourth of the entire world, and the rest of the area is occupied by Galaxy Mayflies.

From the appearance, the wizard-occupied area looks like a small cake that is about to be devoured.

"Sir, according to our current military strength, a full-scale counterattack is unrealistic. So we plan to conduct a small-scale war on some fronts first, and invade the occupied areas of the Galaxy Mayfly little by little by occupying the nodes of the earth veins.

I call it the cannibalization strategy.”

"Occupy the earth vein nodes?" Richard raised his eyebrows. "Isn't this a bit too radical? The earth vein nodes are the lifeblood of the Galaxy Mayfly. Occupying the earth vein nodes will inevitably lead to a counterattack from the Galaxy Mayfly."

Abel smiled and said, "Sir, the Galaxy Ephemera is now preparing for a major offensive in a year. As long as we don't attack those large earth vein nodes, they will never take large-scale action.

Moreover, the purpose of this strategy is not just to occupy the earth vein nodes, the earth vein nodes are just a bonus. Our real goal is to eliminate the living forces of the Galaxy Mayflies and enhance the combat capabilities of the mixed army.

If the Galaxy Mayfly counterattacks, we can just retreat. Anyway, our defense line is like a solid block of iron, I can't wait for the Galaxy Mayfly to come and gnaw at it."

Richard nodded slightly. This strategy sounded very feasible.

"Okay, what's the specific plan?"

When Abel heard Richard mention the specific plan, his expression changed slightly.

"Sir, we have developed a plan according to your ideas. But to be honest, the General Staff is not very optimistic about the task-oriented tactics you proposed."

Inspired by the Northern Theater of Operations, Richard believed that his strategy of abandoning micro-management was correct after the battle. He promoted this strategy to the General Staff and gave it a name - mission-oriented tactics.

This tactical mode abandons the specific orders of the headquarters and only gives subordinate units a strategic goal, such as capturing a certain node or destroying a certain army. As for how the subordinate units should do it, it is up to the subordinate units to decide for themselves.

Compared with traditional command-based command, this tactical model is more flexible and has very low requirements for the staff and communications.

This tactical mode can also give full play to the capabilities of lower-level units.

The greatest feature of wizards is their diversity. This tactical mode allows legion leaders to formulate special tactics for their own legion based on their own abilities.

Moreover, it does not need to be as rigid as imperative command, which requires the headquarters to give orders frequently and is extremely dependent on the command ability of the headquarters.

"You have all seen the performance of the Northern Theater. The corps on the front line are fully capable of operating independently."

Abel nodded helplessly when he heard this. Indeed, the situation in the northern theater of operations proved that the commander of the frontline corps did have outstanding talents.

"But you have to understand that not all legions are as elite as those in the Northern Theater. If you encounter an incompetent legion commander, this tactic..."

Before Abel could finish his words, he was interrupted rudely by Richard.

“Failure is inevitable, even if it is an order from the headquarters, there may be mistakes.

Their daring actions can be forgiven even if they fail, as long as they are within the framework of command intent.”

Hearing Richard say this, Abel opened his mouth but said nothing in the end.

The biggest problem with this tactic is how to deal with failure and whether the subordinate units should bear the price for their bold actions.

But now, Richard has given a definite signal.

Even failed operations can be forgiven as long as they fall within the command’s framework of intent.

Abel could feel that a revolution was about to begin.
