Lu Tianming stood on the city wall, looking at the sky with a blank expression. Suddenly, Lu Tianming's unchanging face had a hint of solemnity, and he murmured to himself, "Come..."
The sound was not loud, but none of the people here were ordinary people. They frowned and looked forward at the same time. After a few dozen seconds, the whole earth seemed to have had an earthquake. At first, there was only a slight vibration, but later it turned into a violent earthquake, so violent that some magicians could only hold on to the wall to stand firm, looking at the end of their sight with a dead face.
At the end of the line of sight, there was a layer of black shadow, which was just like a black belt at the beginning. As the ground vibrates stronger and stronger, everyone's eyes were gradually surrounded by countless monsters. At first glance, they were densely packed with no end. The strong visual impact made most students tremble and fall to the ground before the war started, and endless despair appeared in their eyes.
"Damn it, are you already desperate before the war begins? The morale is so bad. I guess if you don't even resist after a fight, you will be killed by these beasts without even resisting." Vilian said angrily.
"If there is no way to improve morale, I'm afraid even we will be in danger. We can't last tomorrow alone." Peterson expressed the thoughts of everyone present. For a moment, the atmosphere became a little solemn. No one was not afraid of death. Even Lu Tianming, although he was not afraid of death, he didn't want to die simply.
"You have any solutions, please tell me. Now is the critical time. At the speed of the advance of the monsters, I'm afraid that the troops will be at the city in ten minutes." Peterson rubbed his eyebrows and said in dismay.
Everyone was silent and didn't say anything. If there was a way, they would have said it long ago. Why wait until Peterson asked? Only Lu Tianming still looked leisurely.
Seeing Lu Tianming's leisurely appearance, Vilian couldn't help but ask, "I don't know what kind of way can you solve the current dilemma?"
Lu Tianming said without hesitation, "In ancient times, there was a tradition of starting a war. Before the war, the generals fought first. If they could win, it would be helpful to the improvement of morale."
"In ancient times... I didn't expect there was such an interesting tradition. Why didn't I hear of it?" Vilian was a little unbelievable. Their family was also considered a prominent family in the entire Noard continent. It was impossible for them to not even know this little history.
"Who knows, I just heard of it," Lu Tianming said indifferently.
"No, as a witness of history, I don't know that such a thing is true, how could you know?" Zosimus also said with disbelief. Nonsense. If Zosimus would know, Lu Tianming would find it strange. This is the history of Lu Tianming's world.
"It's just a hearsay, you might as well try it." Lu Tianming said calmly, even to Vilian and Zosimus.
"Actually, Your Excellency Lu Tianming also makes sense. If the main general can win the battle, he will plant the seeds of hope for the students in the castle. He is not afraid of the enemy being weak. As long as we can prove that the monsters are not invincible, it can enhance our morale. This main general is indeed a good way to fight." Peterson stopped Vilian who was about to rush forward, and analyzed, looking at Lu Tianming with a deep surprise.
If a young man has unique insights into certain things, it can be said that he is born, then learning such a political method of war requires accumulating over time. In other words, even in the ***, Lu Tianming took the time to study books about war, otherwise he would not have come up with such a profound solution.
"Even if you go to fight, don't mention whether the main general's battle can be successful. How do we determine whether the opponent's monster will repent and besiege the people who went to fight. If so, it will be difficult for those who go to come back." Andra looked at Lu Tianming's calm expression, thinking that it was Lu Tianming's genius airs. She couldn't help but feel angry and pointed out the biggest flaw of Lu Tianming's method. "Besides, if it fails, it will be worse for our morale."
In fact, everyone was also very annoyed by Lu Tianming's unrelated situation, but the other party's strength is not worse than theirs. They can only endure it. Until now, how could they let it go if they finally have the opportunity to attack Lu Tianming openly?
Lu Tianming was not angry about everyone's intentional hostility. His rock-solid will made Lu Tianming's patience reach an extremely terrifying state, but he said calmly, "Since everyone dares to go, then I'll fight this forward."
As soon as Lu Tianming said this, everyone present showed surprise expressions. They did not expect that Lu Tianming would take the initiative to take on such a dangerous battle with the main general.
"It's not that we don't believe you, but if there is any danger, the impact on morale will be fatal, and you will be in danger of your life." As a prominent family, Vilian has also seen many historical battles, so he naturally knows that morale is important for a battle, and Lu Tianming's strength is also the peak combat power of their side. If there is any loss, I'm afraid the pressure they face will increase again.
"Do you think their morale can be worse?" Lu Tianming pointed at the students running around under the city wall with his head in his arms and sneered.
"This..." Vilian didn't say anything, and she also knew that Lu Tianming was right.
"To be honest, how sure are you?" Peterson thought for a long time before asking.
"Of course, you dare to go up. Even if you can't beat it, you will be fine." Lu Tianming's cold tone revealed a strong sense of confidence.
"Since that's the case, then go." Peterson looked at Lu Tianming for a long time before saying slowly, "Remember, if you can't beat it, you must come back alive. If you lack anyone at this time, the impact will be fatal."
Lu Tianming looked at Peterson with some amusement. If ordinary people saw Peterson care about him so much, they would probably be moved to cry, but Lu Tianming wouldn't understand what Peterson meant?
The implication is that if you lack yourself, you will probably have a lower chance of winning this war again. Although everyone is hostile to Lu Tianming, in order to ensure that they can survive, Lu Tianming cannot die yet...
"I will be careful. By the way, I don't want to reveal my identity yet. Can I use my fake name?" Lu Tianming pointed to his human skin mask and said. If the identity is exposed, the enthusiasm of those students will be like a huge trouble for Lu Tianming.
"Of course there is no problem. Is your pseudonym?" Although Peterson didn't know why Lu Tianming did this, he agreed without thinking about this little request.
"Jess" Lu Tianming said calmly, waved his right hand and wiped the sky with a long sword. His body jumped into the air, landing on the blade accurately and leaving the city wall.
Seeing Lu Tianming's move, everyone unconsciously showed an envious expression. For ordinary magicians, only Fengxiang Technique can fly, but Lu Tianming's flying magic is not like Fengxiang Technique. It can have unique flying magic. In their opinion, the power behind Lu Tianming is unfathomable.
"Use image crystal to record the situation here. Whether it succeeds or not, we can only see him." Peterson said helplessly. Although Lu Tianming's battle will not bear the fate of the entire castle, it is also the key to deciding the surname. If it is defeated, the consequences will be self-evident.
Fidley nodded, waved his hand and took out a crystal, casting his magic power on Lu Tianming. At the same time, Lu Tianming's image appeared at the high altitude in the castle.
"This...is this?" The student who was running around with his head in his arms looked at the sudden appearance and said in astonishment.
"Ah, this is Senior Jace," Kuyt shouted excitedly when he saw the figure on the image.
Peterson stood above the castle and swept across all the students with condescending eyes.
"Everyone...you may think that the monsters are powerful, terrifying, and cruel. The irresistible force makes you despair. Even the courage to pick up weapons has been wiped out?" Peterson really has a kingly aura, and inspires everyone's breath in just a few words.
Most of the students didn't say anything, just lowered their heads and looked at their trembling bodies, which was considered as accustomed to what Peterson said.
"Today, we will show you that in front of us humans, monsters, etc. are not worth mentioning. Even if we send someone, we can easily beat the generals of the monsters into a scattered water." Peterson shouted heroically, with an expression that he did not take the monsters seriously.
"He is the student of our academy... Jace, he will tell us how fragile the monsters are, like white paper in front of us humans." Peterson stood on the city wall and pointed at Lu Tianming on the air image, and said confidently, as if everything was taken for granted.
In the image, Lu Tianming's thin body fell outside the castle, looking at the dense group of monsters in front of him expressionlessly. There was no trace of fear in his eyes, but only indifference, indifference to everything in the world.
