Tauren Overlord

"My first step is to evacuate the humans in the commune here."

"They lack clothing and food reserves to cope with the cold climate in the north, and they are also quite short of weapons to deal with strange beasts..."

"So they can't go to the Northern Continent right now. They need some time to prepare before they can set off."

Yuli nodded her head.

"Okay, we also want to see if these humans are suitable for our immigration plan."

This is a normal process. After all, accepting immigrants is a matter of mutual consent. If Lu Heng wants to take people with him, the New City Republic must be willing to accept them.

In terms of time, the defense gap that Yuli mentioned appeared in the winter of last year, and it has been at least half a year now.

Since no suitable immigrants have been found in half a year, it means that the New City Republic is at least not without standards and will not send anyone it meets.

Next, Lu Heng turned his head to look at Helena and continued:

"The people of the commune have a strong will to resist the empire. So far, they have caused great casualties to the foreign leaders of the empire."

"As long as they are given the necessary food and weapons, they can delay the Empire's attack in the area around the Stone Forest Monastery."

Helena also nodded seriously. She knew very well that Lu Heng's move was not just to aid the commune.

Once the commune was destroyed, her Sky Dance Monastery would be the next target.

Although there are as many as 20,000 ratmen at the foot of the mountain, probably more than Governor Edric's troops.

But the combat effectiveness of normal ratmen... I can only say that those who understand will understand.

In the time of crisis, Lu Heng brought her thousands of fighting men, which was obviously a timely help.

Moreover, the uprising of the Fifth Commune was actually very hasty, and there were no decent fortifications there at all.

Relatively speaking, the location of Kongwu Monastery was chosen for defensive purposes from the very beginning, and it is obviously a more suitable battlefield.

Rather than letting the commune perish under the siege of the empire, it was obvious that they would be able to hold out longer if they retreated to this mountainous area.

As the two bosses nodded in agreement, the bird woman, cat woman and minotaur present also reached some kind of unspoken three-headed alliance.

The next problem Lu Heng had to deal with was how to rescue the humans of the commune from the encirclement of the empire.

Theoretically speaking, as long as his landing point vision can float to a place, he can establish the landing point for teleportation there.

Even if we send some humans directly from the Fifth Commune to the Stone Forest Monastery, it won't be a problem.

The problem is that he can only transmit part of it, otherwise he will reach the limit of his own psychic energy load.

Generally speaking, a low-level spellcaster will never reach the limit of his psychic energy load because his psychic energy will be exhausted before that.

With the help of psychic crystals and psychic batteries, Lu Heng's psychic energy can be replenished much easier than that of ordinary spellcasters.

However, the spellcaster himself also has a limit to his psychic energy load. Even if he has infinite psychic energy, he cannot cast spells infinitely.

For example, if there is a fire magician and her spiritual energy is infinitely supplied, can she summon 80 billion fireballs a day?

Then cause the glaciers to melt, global warming to occur, and even the world's oceans to evaporate, turning this place into a barbecue paradise?

No, she won't be able to hold it in first.

This is like a person who eats one meal a day, which is equivalent to insufficient spiritual energy. Of course, he has no strength to do anything. It is difficult for him to run around the playground.

If he eats three normal meals a day, it is equivalent to having sufficient spiritual energy, and he can do much more than when he is hungry. Maybe running three laps will be no problem.

But this does not mean that he can eat 300 meals a day and run 300 laps around the playground.

The principle is simple. The energy he obtains is definitely enough, but his digestive system cannot keep up.

A surge in a single value is difficult to be matched by other systems.

The same goes for psychic energy load. With his current psychic energy load limit, he can only teleport about 300 humans a day.

Pushing the limits of his psychic energy load too far would also place a great strain on his body, causing him to lack combat capability.

A spellcaster who is overloaded with psionic energy may take up to 12 hours to recover to a state where he can fight again.

This is undoubtedly a very suicidal behavior in the ever-changing battlefield.

What's more, the opposing army of leaders has not yet exerted its full strength.

At least the deputy provincial commander Gail Tule, who was in charge of the siege, and his father Edric, the governor behind him, had not taken action personally.

Lu Heng observed the colors of their psychic energy.

Gailtule is a rank three, the best among the leaders; Edric is simply a rank four, which is the ceiling of the Beast Slaying Province.

The reason why they were so careful not to use their spiritual energy was more or less because they felt that the old farmer was not worthy of them using their true strength.

The deeper reason is that they simply want to keep their trump cards in reserve to deal with their real opponents.

In this situation, Lu Heng must not lose his combat capability and must not use all his psychic energy on rescuing people.

In fact, even if he tried his best to rescue the person, it would take him 10 days.

However, looking at the state of the commune, can it really hold out for 10 days under the heavy encirclement of the empire?

Obviously not, so Lu Heng looked at Helena and told her the original purpose of his trip:

"Can you lend me 50 first-level harpy witches?"

"I don't need them to fight. I just need them to provide a certain amount of psychic energy to stabilize my portal."

If the psychic energy burden of teleporting 1000 people were to be borne by Lu Heng alone, it would be far beyond his ability to bear.

So Lu Heng planned to rely on the power of other spellcasters.

Bringing together the spiritual energy of multiple spellcasters is not a difficult problem to overcome.

This has even been widely used, for example, the anti-magic barrier of the Sky Dance Monastery is such a thing.

If it relies solely on a spellcaster to activate and maintain it, even a third-level harpy witch like Helena would not be able to withstand it.

But having 50 first-tier spellcasters share the load would allow the anti-magic barrier to operate smoothly without rendering them unable to fight.

Lu Heng has conducted relevant experiments in the children's shelter in Qunshan Territory, the re-employment center for fallen maids in Aicao Town, and the Suspension Bridge Monastery.

The author says:

Author's words: Thanks to reader 1695470797 for the two monthly tickets ww

142. Power is like AIDS

These experiments have proved that Lu Heng's portal, like the anti-magic barrier, can be charged by multiple spellcasters together to achieve collective teleportation.

The charging medium is the magic-absorbing ribbon. If psychic energy is considered a kind of electricity, then the magic-absorbing ribbon is the "wire" that carries psychic energy.

It was originally a product of the Kongwu Monastery, but Lu Heng achieved mass production of this magic item.

Under normal circumstances, Helena might have considered Lu Heng's proposal.

But now she knew very well that if she couldn't protect the humans in the commune, it would be difficult to protect the rat people down the mountain;

If she couldn't protect the ratmen at the foot of the mountain, it would be difficult to protect the harpy witches on the mountain, including herself.

"Okay, I'll gather them right away."

Helena readily agreed to Lu Heng's request.

Lu Heng also took out a bundle of 200 psychic batteries from the portal and explained:

"These gems contain spiritual energy. Let each of them take two. They can make up for the spiritual energy consumed by the harpy witches when assisting in the group teleportation."

"You can arrange the other 100 as you see fit. You can also keep them for yourself. If the battle gets intense enough that you need to summon the White Dragon, it can also charge you."

Lu Heng's words made Yuli beside him prick up her cat ears. She didn't know when Lunayuan State had this kind of thing, and it seemed that it could be mass-produced.

However, the white cat's little brain turned and he immediately figured out his thoughts:

If our New City Republic also gives more benefits to the Minotaur Overlord, can we also exchange it for this kind of mass-produced magic item?

So she also wagged her furry tail and said in a soft and cute tone:

"Once we have confirmed that there are people suitable for immigration here, the navy of our New City Republic will also come over!"

"They usually bring goods that can be traded, so we should make a good deal with them then!"

Lu Heng was also delighted at the invitation from Little Meow Girl.

Good! That's what I've been waiting for.

All of his industrial products will be put into large-scale production, but what he lacks is sales channels.

Now sales are rolling towards you, is there such a good thing?

Lu Heng also immediately expressed that he welcomed the trade demands from friends in the north.

However, the most important thing right now is to rescue the people in the commune first.

He then used the psychic potato cubes to pass the message to Scarlett in the commune, asking her to gather some of the seriously injured first.

Even if Lu Heng gave them 100 healing stones, he could only save some lives.

1% of the power would allow their wounds to heal slowly, but those who had already been beaten by the empire's leaders to the point of losing limbs would not be able to grow them back.

These people who lack fighting ability are the first group of people who need to be transported out of the commune.

……

While fighting was raging on the Commune battlefield, the Empire discovered that its cavalry could become inexplicably paralyzed and then lose balance and fall off their horses.

Then, they will become targets for the commune people to shoot at.

So they called in more infantry to protect their precious spellcasters, especially the lords among them, who were the most precious among all the spellcasters.

After all, the orders came from the lord, so of course they hoped that their subordinates would die in front of them.

But even so, they still feel very sad.

Countless soldiers who could still be used for farming were killed again and again by the hard lumps that suddenly appeared.

Lu Heng's booby traps forced them to slow down, leaving time for the commune people to reload their long-range weapons.

In order to break the impasse, they had long thought of using war weapons such as field catapults to deal with the commune.

They did just that at the beginning of the battle.

But their victory was interrupted by Lu Heng and the harpy witches of the Sky Dance Monastery.

After several sneak attacks, all their catapults were destroyed.

After the remaining infantry charged several times in succession, the lords had to painfully realize that this was basically sending their men to their deaths.

But they had no choice but to attack, because the deputy commander was urging them to capture the last stronghold of the Fifth Commune today.

As for Deputy Commander Gail Tule, he certainly would not rush to the front.

He is the son of the governor and is born to be able to command people.

If he were to risk his life on the front line of the battlefield, wouldn't his position as the governor's son be in vain?

So he chose to drink red wine elegantly while leading his troops to attack with all their might.

As for the reason why the commune could not be conquered for a long time, Gertulle intended to blame it on the fact that the soldiers of the Beast Suppression Province were too poor and completely useless.

To some extent, his accusation is not entirely unreasonable.

Some nobles do hope to expand in the Eastern Continent, so they will provide high-quality equipment and a large number of troops to the noble children who are sent out.

But more nobles may have hoped that their family rivals would die on the battlefield.

Therefore, many of the nobles who led this expeditionary force were themselves losers in internal family competition.

This means that the weapons and equipment, personnel configuration and other aspects of the Eastern Expedition personnel were very average.

Because the best things must remain with the original family in the Western Continent.

There were even some people who were sent to the Eastern Expedition who were people their families wanted dead.

If you branches don't die, how can the main family strengthen the trunk and weaken the branches?

Giving you such crappy equipment is just to help you die early, right?

However, nobles are nobles after all. Even if they are not favored by their masters, they have various ways to avoid death, such as letting the soldiers go first.

The most pitiful ones are the leaders' soldiers who walk in the front row and use their bodies to clear mines for the imperial nobles. They have no power to decide whether to move forward or not.
