268.Two-line combat and return scroll - additional update for the brothers "Huo Zheng is very good" [18/20] (page 2/2)
he went on to explain：
“Ms. Leonia is right. Based on our current military strength compared with the Jackals, we cannot win under any normal war rhythm. Therefore, the best way to calm down this decisive battle is to find another way..
And my master had a secret plan a long time ago.
I don’t know if you have noticed that there is one thing that we can take advantage of in the current Transia, and that is the unstable mapping relationship between the real world and the astral world..
I am not a professional psionicist, so I am not responsible for explaining the specific principles. I just want to clarify to you that we will trigger a small to medium-sized astral tear in a specific area in three days.！
It will be deployed at the core of the current Jackal camp according to precise calculations. Even with the worst killing power, it can kill thousands of elite Jackals at once..
More importantly, such a large-scale astral tear will create a zone of psychic chaos in the Gnoll camp, which will effectively isolate the Gnoll warlord Ken Porter from the army under his command..
This is our next course of action.
A two-front battle！
While holding back and resisting the enemy in Scarlet Castle, Lord Murphy personally led his warriors to perform a difficult beheading operation..
Once we successfully execute it, the gnoll army will disintegrate from its core.
Given the chaotic racial nature of the Jackals, it is impossible for them to re-elect a warlord to take charge of the overall situation in a short period of time. As external pressure continues to increase, the big Jackal gang that is still united will collapse in a very short period of time..
I asked Professor Malcolm, and he told me that this is a tactic often used by the civilized coalition during several black disasters..
It has been historically proven to be quite effective.”
“The Knights of the Blood Alliance did often use this beheading tactic when fighting against the gnoll tribes in the Dark Mountains. It is indeed very effective, but I doubt whether you can complete this difficult beheading..”
Ms. Lenia said hesitantly：
“They sent out 20,000 vanguards, but there are still an equal number of elites in the camp. Even if your astral tear can be launched smoothly, the time left for you to act is quite limited..
The most important thing is that the Blood Eagle Clan and the warriors of Transia have just suffered terrible losses. Do you have enough elites to complete this plan?？
How about I come?？”
“We have it! And how could you bother a distinguished lady with such a thing and put her life at risk?？”
Murphy turned around, waved his hand and said：
“I have already sent an invitation to the mountain tribe where my warriors belong, and in two days there will be another elite group that is not afraid of death to participate in this battle..
Countess Femis and I, as well as Baron Kudel, will personally lead them into the battle..
Another advantage we have is that the three of us have experienced the entire process of Cadman City being engulfed by the Astral Plane. We are familiar with fighting in the shadow of the Astral Plane and know how to protect ourselves from the washout of dirty psychic energy..
I don't think gnolls can learn on their own without a teacher..
Except for my warriors, this battle does not require the participation of other forces. This is not to look down on you, but because while I am taking risks, you also have to shoulder quite dangerous responsibilities..
Astral Rip
Even small and medium-sized astral tears cannot be completed easily. The amount of spiritual energy required to destroy the mapping relationship between the material world and the astral world is astronomical..
Of all the means we currently have, there is only one thing that can do this in a short time.”
As others watched, Murphy patted the core ritual stone suspended above the ground beside him and said：
“This is it! The fact that three psychic cores can hold up the barrier covering the city means that they can also be used as a temporary source of psychic energy..
Before the operation begins, we need to temporarily overload the three psychic cores at the same time to provide a psychic storm that can break the astral barrier..
Tris will be responsible for promoting this ritual, so you don’t have to worry about this..
But this also means that while the three psychic cores are recovering and re-supporting the shield, the entire Scarlet Fort will be undefendable..
I know that in that case, asking you to fight with 2,000 soldiers against 20,000 gnolls will undoubtedly lead you to death, but the situation in Transia is like this.
Now is the time when we cannot survive without fighting..
Everyone, we are once again standing at the crossroads of destiny..”
“Have you ever had a fight that was easily resolved?？”
Baroness Miriam complained：
“I have followed you all the way, and I can basically confirm that you have settled and built a house at the crossroads of destiny. Murphy, your bad luck has infected everyone..”
These words made the lord roll his eyes, but he had nothing to say. President Natalie behind Miriam smiled and asked：
“So, how long do we need to hold out under the vanguard attack of the Jackals?？”
Murphy looked at Tris, the psychic master made an estimate, and she said：
“The minimum is one hour, the maximum is three hours. This level of psychic transformation cores will not be damaged so easily, but it will also take more time to restart them..”
“How long will your beheading operation take?？”
Count Andrei, who was still recovering, looked a little pale, and he asked：
“Need help from the Thorn Clan, which specializes in assassinations?？”
“No, you stay here to defend the city, we need you more here.”
Murphy shook his head and said：
“I will end the battle as quickly as possible, but even faster it may take several hours, and my warriors and I can't teleport back quickly..”
“There is a way, use this！”
Tris took out something from the psychic bag and handed it to Murphy. The lord was surprised when he took it in his hand and activated the item identification, and a label popped up.：
Name: Tracey’s prototype “Return Scroll””
Quality: Alchemy consumables
Effect: Bind the return coordinates to the return scroll. Using the scroll within its allowed range can release a temporary portal that allows 1-3 people to pass through and return the user to the bound coordinates..
hint！
The psychic spell of this item is based on Mrs. Trish's research on the theory of psychic teleportation. It has not yet been finalized. In addition, due to the unique instability of psychic teleportation when passing through the astral realm, there is a small chance of using this item ( About 1%) allows the user to enter the [Star World Lost] state.
hint！
The item's return coordinates can be bound to the tester's most recently visited save point.

Item description：
【Do you know why there has never been a mature teleportation system in this world? Use this scroll once and you will know the reason. If you are lucky enough to be sent to the astral world, then don’t rush back to the material world and see more of the rare scenery of the astral world..
Oh, by the way, another name for this thing is 'Star Boundary One-Day Tour' one-way ticket.】
“emmmm, I think this thing seems a bit risky.”
Murphy blinked and said to Tris：
“How about we find another way?？”
“I didn’t let you use it！”
Tris rolled her eyes and said：
“Let them use it, and then submit some usage experience and reports to me. I am still waiting to improve my teleportation technique. As long as they use this thing enough times and give me a detailed enough experience, then what you said before I am also confident that I can make that 'Hearthstone'.
As for risks
Don't care about the risks！
Exploring the mysteries of psychic energy is always accompanied by risks. It’s rare to have a group of warriors under your command who are not afraid of death. Look, what a good test subject..”
