Chapter 847 - 411: Anchor Point
The Earth Dragon lowered its forehead, gently pulled up the sleeve of Li Ang’s Divine Power Robe, revealing the wound on the arm that had been cut off by the Decomposition Light Wave.
Due to the efficiency of the light wave and the effect of the Healing Water Wave, new skin had already grown over the wound, but the strange sensation of losing a limb still made the young girls quietly exclaim.
Even though they disliked the strange woman who suddenly appeared, they all held their breath in anticipation of her directly healing Li Ang.
Li Ang himself was somewhat surprised that the Earth Dragon possessed this ability.
It wasn’t about doubting the Divine Spirit’s power, but he hadn’t expected to find such a healer so quickly.
Healers capable of limb regeneration are masters with profound cultivation on the Path of Resurgence, which can also be seen as a form of extremely powerful assistant.
The strategy classification of the Sky Cavalry battle mainly includes all-out attack, defensive attrition, and super strong individual formation.
The first type involves a reasonable combination of strengthening, regeneration, armor piercing, area attack, and single-target attack, advancing steadily and surely. As long as the personnel selection is reasonable and there’s mutual cooperation, it’s the easiest combat technique to achieve, with the challenge being in the pre-battle combination.
When Li Ang was at Rams’s Soul Apex, it was basically up to him to handle the team combination, because it required switching equipment among some people, and even if achievements were made, he wasn’t praised.
The second type of defensive strategy mainly involves accumulating defense and recovery talents, enduring the enemy’s fierce attack, and then taking the opportunity to launch an attack, requiring only a few singular attackers, with the rest being vanguards and healers.
In such a team, common attackers are archers, emplacement casters, and low-cost casters, either attacking from formation backlines with transcending distance or causing continuous and effective damage with a certain type of attack.
This is also a common structure, and often, people prefer this approach because in reality, unlike games, it minimizes casualties.
But reliable defenders and healers are hard to find, especially the latter.
Sometimes healers have a similar experience to witches, especially in the early stage when healing potions can replace magic, leading many to study or specialize in them, but if not purely, they find it hard to master, hence few advanced healers exist.
In gaming terms, it’s like "if you think a healer is easy and enjoyable, why don’t you play it? If you don’t play, why complain about the lack of healers?"
But compared to witches, when facing life-and-death crises, healers are irreplaceable.
In the defensive combat technique, if there is a super healer, the effect is enormous, allowing the team to save on healing positions, accumulate more defense and attack positions, making the formation more solid and harder to block during advancement.
Of course, the benefits of a strong healer apply in other situations as well.
Therefore, many times in the Sky Cavalry, when speaking of "assistants," they mean healers, while witches are considered alternative support and seen by many as mere slackers.
As for the third combat technique, it is rarely discussed. If a high-level healer is hard to find, those who can provide powerful boosts to teammates are even rarer.
The so-called super individual formation involves finding as many enhancers as possible, letting them bestow enhancement effects onto a single attacker, allowing him to deliver attacks beyond limits. Sometimes this accumulation can even break world limits.
However, this strategy basically only appears in legends, and even in the Celestial Group, only a few teams have achieved similar effects under rare circumstances.
Even though Li Ang developed a skill like "Spiritual Activation," he rarely had the chance to collaborate with a second person who could offer similar enhancements, not to mention a third or fourth.
Moreover, having gathered the boosters, there also needs to be an attacker capable of bearing the full power.
In gaming terms, it’s akin to measuring "growth" and "carrying rate." Simply put, giving all boosts to a useless entity is of no real value.
Previously, however, Li Ang had managed to execute such a strategy.
The young girls were not fully formed yet, but could already begin to apply enhancement effects on him, allowing the Island Toss to far exceed the power he could originally muster.
The Star Flower Travel Corps possesses this most luxurious of combat techniques, but finding a healer is still completely out of reach.
The Earth Dragon claimed it could heal, so Li Ang didn’t make any move, letting her perform.
With a face of non-human tier beauty, she observed his stump from an extremely close distance, her slight breathing making him feel uneasy.
Her slender hand brushed over, and high-purity Earth Element gathered into a golden ring, with the living Elemental Spirits calling forth the deeply connected High-tier Magic — Power of Nature.
Li Ang could also utilize the Power of Nature through Orichalcum, but the Earth Dragon attracted it naturally, demonstrating absolute control over this power, mastering its use to an extent unmatched by mortals.
In the faint green hue of magic power, a gentle stream of water flowed, circling Li Ang’s arm, followed by countless small flowers blooming, and then other natural phenomena.
Though small in size, they were abundant in variety and combination. Soon, the stump seemed adorned with a flower crown, though on closer inspection, it resembled a garden crafted by vegetation on a giant’s body.
He felt his arm begin to tingle, and the original numbness and slight phantom pain from losing the limb found a real response. Even though no bone or flesh had yet regenerated, it felt as if his arm had already returned.
