1040 Thinking about the future

Almost. The wall tactics are going to change their nature drastically, depending on whether or not they have the magic spear-like means of attack.

"That's what a magic gun is."I've seen it used by the Barca army. "

"That's right, Ian. Maybe that magic gun isn't much for Ian, but I think it's a really good weapon.It was much more than a magic bow in that it could easily attack from a distance.Whether or not they have that kind of weapon, the wall tactics will change their appearance. "

We built walls all over the flat of Ixelles.

Each faction continued to move their troops to control the places that would be advantageous to them, and the flat landscape changed dramatically.

As a result, I've seen this tactic before.

It's a completely different battlefield, with or without superior ranged weapons.

A magic gun that can use magic power to fire a hardened brick shell called a magic bullet.

This magic spear is still being improved in the Sky Kingdom, and it can hit even farther accurately, and it seems to be even more powerful.

But even if it wasn't that much, it could be a conventional magic spear.

If a weapon called the Magic Spear is known in the east and becomes available in both factions, it will be a way of battle that the Commander must remember.

It's only natural to shoot a ranged weapon that can take the life of an opponent with a single hit.

Protecting yourself with a wall becomes a must.

I wonder what will happen if I do that.

I suspect that having a weapon with a high lethal capacity will prolong the battle on the battlefield.

Each of them holds a magic gun and uses the magic power stored in the magic stone to shoot the magic bullets at each other.

Besides, he was hiding behind a wall.

Everyone spends their lives, and I don't want to lose.

Surely, it would be a patience match to wait for each other to jump out.

If that happens, there may be more changes on the battlefield.

With a Magic Gun, a soldier's combat range will be extended.

There's no need to leave a lot of people behind a single wall, and I'm sure they'll stretch the wall out to the side.

Each faction stretches their walls to the side and gazes at each other with a magic spear behind them.

Rather than building a wall to contain a vantage point like this, I think it would draw the line between factional spheres on the battlefield.

"In short, both factions have the ability to attack from a distance, and if they have the skill to build walls, the battle situation will become protracted and stagnant."I don't know. "I don't think that's going to happen..."If you have an overwhelmingly powerful man, you can fight with a magic gun or something like that. "

"There it is, Ian. That's just a general theory, or a premise that you don't think about people who are very strong.If everyone is at least critically injured by a magic gun attack, the wall tactics will only lead to a stiffening of the surface.But that won't happen. Because people are not necessarily the same strength.If you do that, you might be able to win with someone stronger. "

"... I see. I understand what Alphonse is trying to say."In short, it could be a development with a stronger one, right?Instead of building walls and meeting each other for a long time, it's much faster to fight each other's armies to win or lose. ”

It's a duel. Could that be the case?

What will happen if the forces reign over each other and cannot be settled by force?

Perhaps individual dueling will determine the country's whereabouts?

No, it might not be like that, but it might decide how to fight it.

Only forces from both factions that do nothing but attack with magic spears can jump out and break through the opponent's walls.

"But do you have to think about that?"The magic gun might be made in the sky kingdom, but it wasn't made by Alphonse. "

"That's right. That's because Brother Arth can make Spirit Stones with magic power, so it's only mass-produced."But instead of a magic gun, a strong ranged attack could be born and spread in the east, Ian. "

Huh? Really?

"Ah. Or maybe Ian knows that Oliva is trying to use Flame Thunder Arrow magic right now."If it became a spell, it would probably spread to another country.I don't know how far ahead we will be, but I'm sure that the magic that can attack from a distance will come out in the East. "

It was the premise of a magic gun, but it wasn't the only one that could attack from a distance.

In the Kingdom of Fontana, there is an attacking magic that exists in reality.

And it cannot be said that it will not be produced in this east.

Someday someone will create an attacking magic.

Moreover, there is a good chance that it will be a world where everyone can use attack magic from person to person.

Of course, it's not like that right now.

I didn't think the Peria Army would ever connect the walls to the side and meet each other.

However, after actually trying barrier magic on the battlefield, I felt that such a future was possible.

After all, I don't think that victory or defeat is likely to be determined by a smart, staff-type person alone.

I felt that only a strongman who could bounce through the battlefield like a storm by bouncing off a common ranged attack was needed to win.

You've studied better than I expected.

I think it's worth taking the time to build walls all over the flat.

But that's enough.

It's time to move.

Having tested the bulwark tactics, I finally decided to launch a full-scale battle where the troops would clash.
