Chapter 226: The Relic of Eternal Darkness! Ghost Jia Xu VS Skeleton Gan Ning!
Although the performance of the Scourge Army is remarkable, it is obviously difficult to rewrite the final outcome. After all, this is a round of battles with a huge disparity in strength.
However, since the Scourge Army has invested more troops than when fighting against the Filthy Golem.
Therefore, the energy that can be converted for the territory must be more.
I estimated.
It can generate about 18-20 million energy.
This income is already very large but not all income.
Players can destroy no less than 2,000 Skeleton Clan troops in this round of operations.
The energy and magic crystal drops of these star units are very high, and because the battles in various battlefields are very fierce, most of the spoils are not picked up in time, resulting in a large amount of energy loss.
As usual.
Hang Yu will collect this part.
It is estimated to be 8-10 million.
This is also not a small number.
And this is not all but the beginning. The tug-of-war will have a repeated process, which is enough to create huge value and greatly increase the energy resource reserves of the territory.
It seems that Hang Yu even has to thank the corpse witch lord on the opposite side. If he had not launched this round of attack, how could he have cut so many leeks?
The faster the casualties of the natural disaster army, the better!
Now the territory is pouring in tens of thousands of new soldiers. In addition, Hang Yu also plans to expand the Blue Dragon Guard, create the Black Tiger Guard, and the Iron Eagle Guard, which will consume a huge amount of energy and resources.
In addition to training subordinates and troops, the ongoing new round of territory construction has a large number of magic crystal gaps that need to be filled.
For Hang Yu, this sudden outbreak of the lord war is like someone sending a pillow when he is sleepy.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a timely help.
Of course, although Hang Yu can gain huge benefits in the war, he will not treat the opposite lord as an idiot because of this.
The natural disaster army is so weird and abnormal. After one or two contacts, you will definitely find that the enemy lord will definitely take corresponding measures. Now is definitely not the time to be careless. You need to adjust your tactics and strategies according to changes in the situation at any time.
So Hang Yu continued to pay attention to the battle situation.
There was a new change in the battle in Li Village.
After Xiao Lingdang set up the Four-Character Demon-Slaying Formation to kill the Skeleton General Zhang Hu, all the soldiers of the Undead Clan fell into chaos.
The Calamity Army seized the opportunity to quickly reverse the decline and launched a fierce counterattack, causing considerable casualties to the Undead Clan in the process.
However.
At this moment.
The blessing point in Li Village lit up.
One after another, figures were brought to the scene by the blessing point.
The demons and monsters immediately shouted: "The enemy reinforcements are coming!"
Each of these reinforcements is a top-notch force, almost all of them are third-level strength Undead elites, in addition to which there is a guy with a particularly terrifying aura among them.
This is a skeleton general wearing golden armor and holding a golden bow.
It is the skeleton Huang Zu who had seen it in Shansang City.
"Not good!"
"Huang Zu is here too!"
"Retreat first! A brave man will not suffer a loss in front of him!"
"..."
When the fearless Scourge Army found out that Huang Zu was coming to help them, they immediately thought of retreating without any hesitation.
Zhang Hu is level 22.
He is just a third- or fourth-rate commander.
Huang Zu is level 25 and still a first-rate commander.
Even the threat of three Zhang Hus combined is not as great as that of one Huang Zu.
And this Scourge Army has lost two-thirds of its members. How can it fight under such circumstances?
Huang Zu has already pulled open the golden bow in his hand, and a golden arrow strikes like a meteor, piercing through three players one after another, and hits Xiao Lingdang, whose mana is exhausted.
-
3654 (fatal critical hit!)
"Captain Xiao Lingdang is dead too!"
"Oh my god! Everyone, quickly break out! This bastard's archery is too cruel!"
Huang Zu aimed at the only remaining third-level boss in the natural disaster army, Chi Mei Wangliang, and only used one arrow. Not only did he shoot through the guards around him, but he also killed Chi Mei Wangliang with one arrow.
The elite combat power of the Shenyu Palace Corps was completely depleted.
Although there were still three or two hundred players struggling to survive, they were surrounded by the Dead Bone Army. Several attempts to break out ended in failure. It can be said that they were in a completely desperate situation.
"Hey, I can't run away!"
"Why run? A real man should fight to the last moment!"
"Brothers and sisters, I'll go first!"
"This time I've fought well, and I'll try harder in the next round! ”
“…”
Under the ruthless encirclement of the Boneless Clan, and Huang Zu’s constant shooting and sniping, the player can be said to be completely defeated and powerless to resist. In less than five minutes, the entire army was completely wiped out.
Killing this natural disaster army.
Huang Zu was not happy at all.
Because these guys actually took away an important general under his command.
A monk secret guard in charge of delivering the order said: "The lord has an order! Please return to defend Huangmei Township immediately!"
"Yes!" Huang Zu quickly reorganized the troops in Li Township, and then returned to Huangmei Township through the blessing point. Unlike the other four newly occupied blessing points, Huangmei Township is the forward base of the territory.
The commander-in-chief of this round of operations, General Hui Xiu, and the commander of the Corpse Corps, Huang Zu, are both stationed here. Not only that, Huangmei Township has been built with new defense facilities.
Although the other four strongholds have been attacked since the beginning, from beginning to end, Hui Xiu and Huang Zu did not dare to leave Huangmei Township easily.
The reason is very simple.
On the human camp side.
Wen Pin and Zhou Cang have not appeared yet.
Hui Xiu and Huang Zu are worried that the attack of the four small strongholds is just a feint. Once they bring elite troops to reinforce, Wen Pin and Zhou Cang will attack Huangmei Township again.
Because of such concerns and fears, and the fact that the offensive power of the human side is not strong, the existing forces of the four strongholds can completely block it, so the two generals choose to remain unchanged in the face of changes.
No one expected it.
Zhang Hu, the general of the Corpse Corps, was killed in Li Village.
After this battle, the Corpse ... After observing the battlefield, a corpse wizard holding a long staff also discovered the strangeness of this confrontation, "After these humans died, they didn't refine any spoils!"
Every star lord has been blessed by the supreme will of the stars.
Therefore, the star lord and all the clans, people and servants in the territory have the ability given by the will of the stars. This ability is to extract essence and refine everything, or to put it more bluntly, it is to kill monsters and drop treasures.
The war between the two lords caused great losses, and the spoils can make up for the losses to a certain extent.
Now a round of war has been fought.
The Bone Army lost more than 2,000, and the Scourge Army lost about 4,000. Although it seems that the latter suffered more serious blood loss, after the latter was wiped out, not a single spoil was left at the scene.
Xie Ming may not be interested in the essence, magic crystals, and equipment dropped by these humans. The main reason is that the performance of this human army is too strange, which makes him feel uncomfortable.
Is this army really destroyed?
In fact, a similar situation had already occurred in Shansang City. The defenders of Shansang City seemed to be clearly divided into two parts. One part would drop loot when they died, while the other part was stingy.
During the Shansang City Battle, Xie Ming's attention was mainly attracted by Wen Pin, Zhou Cang and the powerful Canglong Guards, so he didn't pay enough attention to the soldiers of the Scourge Army.
Several generals of the human camp did not participate in this battle, and he found that there were many familiar faces among these Scourge Army who were suspected to have been eliminated in Shansang City.
Could it be the same army?
Xie Ming said in a deep voice: "This human lord should have mastered some special ability or relics, so that he can isolate other star forces from hunting and refining units in the territory."
The great elder of Mingxue City, Xie Gu, was very surprised: "There is actually a star lord who can master this ability? I have never heard of it in all these years in the land of stars."
Xie Ming said: "Although it is extremely rare, there are billions of star lords, and any possibility cannot be ruled out."
He has highly suspected that Hang Yu has mastered some powerful relics, or built some extremely powerful and rare super buildings, so he can prevent the territory units from producing spoils for the opponent in the Lord War.
The great elder of Mingxue City: "It is really disgusting that such an ability appears in the Lord War. If the people and troops of one territory cannot be refined, the other territory cannot make up for the loss by fighting to support the war. It only needs to drag the war into a protracted war to gradually wear down the opponent with this advantage."
Hearing this.
The other corpse monsters did not care.
A corpse demon general said disdainfully: "You think too much. If the opponent is another middle-upper race, this ability may indeed be troublesome, but the opponent is just a human. A lower-level race has a fragile foundation. How can it withstand the consumption of a protracted war?"
"That being said, don't underestimate it!"
Xie Ming said indifferently: "I now suspect that this human territory has the ability to recycle some of the dead family members. This may be the reason why the people can't drop the spoils of war when they die. Even more extreme, the opponent can directly resurrect the dead soldiers in batches."
As soon as these words came out.
All the corpse demon leaders were shocked.
The elder Shi Gu said: "If this is true, it can explain why a mere human territory can stand firm in this abyssal plane."
Other corpse demons discussed.
"Although it will be a little tricky, it is no big deal. After all, many star lords have mastered the ability to revive territory units, and the source of this ability can be special props, rare buildings, and rare relics..."
"Yes, but despite the many means of resurrection, they generally have a high price!"
"If the opponent is a powerful race and has this special method of group resurrection, we are still a little bit afraid, but if it is just humans, the threat it can cause is not great."
"..."
Xie Ming's meditation is actually similar to his subordinates.
Comparing the battle of Shansang City, it is not difficult to find that there are obviously several different troops in the human territory, and only a part of them cannot be refined by the power of the stars, which means that the ability of the opponent's lord cannot cover all the people.
The current intelligence is still too little.
It is necessary to observe it again.
The evil corpse demons are treacherous and cunning by nature, and Xie Ming, as a corpse demon lord, is even more so. This is why he chose the Corpse Legion as the main force of this war.
The Corpse Legion's troops do not occupy the local population, and can be directly converted from the indigenous population, so they are very high-quality consumables, and there is nothing to regret even if they are used up.
Not to mention that there are still a lot of "mature" inventory troops under the burial ground.
As long as this human territory is successfully captured.
Why worry about the lack of troops?
When Xie Ming thought of this, he withdrew his attention from Woniu Mountain. Although the battle on Woniu Mountain was very lively, it was not the key to this confrontation. The current territory captured alone was not enough to hurt the opponent's lord.
What can really hit this lord.
That depends on Wancheng's actions!
Xie Ming saw through the lord's vision that Gan Ning, the top master of his Corps of Dead Bones, had taken advantage of the fierce battle on Woniu Mountain and silently entered Wancheng through Baihu Mountain.
Who can be a lord these days without a trump card and hidden means?
Although this human lord showed unexpected strength and means, it is still within the controllable range so far.
Xie Ming did not think that the small soldiers and crabs of the Natural Disaster Army could pose a threat to his territory. As for Wen Pin, Zhou Cang, Zhang Zhongjing and other top indigenous strongmen, they were very strong, but not enough to pose a threat to him.
The human lord sent troops to fight for the lost territory on Woniu Mountain.
It means that attention has been attracted.
Xie Ming believed that the human lord on the opposite side would never think that the tug-of-war of several strongholds on Woniu Mountain was not important at all, and the real devastating crisis was about to break out in his rear base camp.
...
Wancheng area.
More than ten miles away from the new Wancheng.
A fierce shadow energy erupted on a low hill near a small village, and twenty figures with the aura of the dead all over their bodies emerged from this invisible energy.
This small force.
There are a total of twenty members.
There are ten dead bones and ten corpse demons.
In addition to Skeleton Gan Ning and Skeleton Su Fei, the other eight dead bones also have the strength of third-level first-class elites. Their task is to escort the secret guards to sneak in and arrive here and carry out the next plan.
Su Fei came to the acolyte secret guards and asked: "How is this place, sirs?"
These acolytes secret guards are the lord's direct relatives. Although they are the most powerful group among the relatives, if it comes to a one-on-one duel, Su Fei is obviously not afraid of any of them in front of him.
But they are the lord's relatives after all.
They are the confidants among the confidants.
Su Fei dared not neglect these corpse demons in the face of them. Even if they seem to have no self and personality, he must avoid displeasing the lord behind the scenes because of disrespect.
"This is a good location!"
"Let's start the first formation here!"
The ten acolytes and secret guards immediately dispersed and took out various ritual items. A formation exuding the breath of death began to take shape under the joint efforts of the secret guards.
This formation is not complicated.
Its principle is to consume a powerful sacrifice to summon a storm formed by death energy.
The ten acolytes and secret guards are only responsible for building and activating the formation. As for the power of the storm summoned by the formation, it mainly depends on the core sacrifice in the formation.
For this plan.
Xie Ming took out a treasure he had collected for a long time.
It is a thing called "Eternal Darkness Relic".
This item is a third-level blue upper-grade material, but its value far exceeds this level of material, because it is not an ordinary blue quality material, but a rare treasure containing divine source.
Use this as a sacrifice to activate the formation.
Each summoned death storm can cover a diameter of at least hundreds of miles.
At this moment, the location chosen by the acolyte secret guards is only more than ten miles away from Xinwan City. In other words, it won't be long before the death storm will sweep the city, and more than 95% of ordinary civilians will surely die.
The Eternal Dark Relic is a material containing divine source.
Even if the source content is not high and can only reach blue quality, it is enough to be used many times.
When the death storm successfully destroys Xinwan, the acolyte secret guards will leave the scene as soon as possible under the cover of the skeleton Gan Ning's shadow march and go to the next city to do the same.
In this way.
Hundreds of thousands of people.
Will be directly destroyed.
Even if the human lord reacts, it will be too late to stop it.
The loss of these hundreds of thousands of people is enough to have a huge impact on him, and these indigenous residents who died from the erosion of death energy will be recovered by the Corpse Witch Territory in the future. Xie Ming will build a new and larger burial city in the Xinwan area!
Ten or twenty years later!
Hundreds of thousands of dead bones will be created!
With this huge army, the Corpse Witch Lord can sweep away any enemy!
Skeleton Gan Ning stood on a low hill.
Xinwan City was in front of his vision.
He could even see some buildings in this century-old city, and near Xinwan was a relatively flat field, with large tracts of farmland interlaced, many farmers working in it, and curling smoke from nearby villages.
"Xingba, what are you looking at." Su Fei came from behind.
Gan Ning said, "Look at the scenery, such scenery, how many years have we not seen it?"
Su Fei was slightly stunned and said, "It's too long ago, why think about these, the most urgent thing is to complete the Lord's task as soon as possible!"
In fact, after the arrival of the Abyss Will, the whole Jiangxia was messed up by the resurrected evil Sun Jian, and since then, there may be no chance to see such a peaceful and peaceful scene.
However.
Su Fei was unmoved.
And they will destroy the peace and tranquility in front of them at this moment.
Su Fei did not feel any guilt about this, and he did not even think there was anything wrong. In fact, he liked the environment of the Buried Bone City from the bottom of his heart. Instead, he felt uncomfortable with the vibrant scene in front of him.
After being transformed into a spirit.
The human nature had long been lost.
Whether it was Huang Zu or Su Fei, they had gradually become thorough spirits, and their thinking and likes and dislikes would change imperceptibly. Naturally, it was impossible for them to empathize with ordinary humans or even any living creatures.
Su Fei's numbness.
made Gan Ning feel that this close friend was so strange.
The two had known each other long before they joined Huang Zu.
Gan Ning was a wanderer in the wild, but he made a name for himself as a Jinfan thief with his extraordinary courage and martial arts, while Su Fei was a well-known general in Jiangxia. Although the two had huge differences in their backgrounds, they were inseparable.
Although Gan Ning was very loyal to his friends, he was rebellious by nature, and could be described as bloodthirsty, cruel, and ruthless.
On the contrary, Su Fei was always open-minded, kind, and chivalrous.
Gan Ning thought, if it were Su Fei back then, he would rather die than see hundreds of thousands of people perish in front of him, right?
But think about it.
It's not bad for him to become like this.
Anyway, he can't change anything, at least he won't fall into confusion and pain.
Sometimes Gan Ning envied Huang Zu and Su Fei, but he seemed to be unable to get rid of the shadow of his past, and he was not as open and honest as them.
Suddenly.
The temperature dropped sharply.
The formation has taken shape.
This is a huge circular formation, with ten acolytes and secret guards standing in each corner. Various complex runes are being constructed in the formation, and in the center of this formation is a treasure box engraved with sealing runes.
At this moment, the runes on the treasure box are fading.
The Eternal Dark Relic is about to be unsealed.
The formation is about to start.
"It's coming!"
Su Fei and other strong men of the Bone Clan faced the increasingly powerful death energy in the formation. The soul fire in their empty eyes was jumping wildly. They were obviously looking forward to the release of this power, just like looking forward to a grand and gorgeous fireworks display.
Gan Ning clenched his two swords. He could clearly feel that his soul was aching again.
But at this moment.
Something unexpected happened.
"The Lord has handed Xinwan over to me for care. There must not be any trouble during this period." A feminine and lazy voice came from the air, "And you are doing this kind of thing under my nose. It's too much of a disregard for me!"
"Who!"
Gan Ning and Su Fei's eyes changed.
The fact that the other party could approach so easily without being discovered is enough to show that this person is definitely not an ordinary person!
The air in front of the strong men of the Bone Clan suddenly twisted.
A figure exuding a gloomy aura appeared out of nowhere.
When Gan Ning, Su Fei and others saw this figure, they were stunned for two seconds, because this figure was not a living person, and the whole body exuded the breath of death, which seemed to be the same as the undead.
"I am the ancestor of Ji Yin, Jia Xu, the acting city lord of Xinwan!"
Jia Xu revealed his identity. He had already received a reminder from Hang Yu, so he was very concerned about the strange phenomena in the Xinwan area. He himself was extremely proficient in the means of the undead field and was very sensitive to the breath of death. Naturally, he could react at the first time.
Su Fei and other undead bones all looked solemn.
Gan Ning looked up and down at Jia Xu: "You are very strong, but I am afraid you can't stop us!"
Indeed.
Gan Ning is a hegemon.
If it was Jia Xu's heyday.
His strength was enough to deal with the skeleton Gan Ning who had just touched the threshold of the hegemon.
But at this moment, Jia Xu's body has not recovered yet, and he can only exert part of his strength, that is, the level of a top-notch commander. From this point of view, there is still a big gap compared with Gan Ning.
"Haha? Really? I think it's not a good habit to draw conclusions too early before the competition!"
Jia Xu seemed calm and unhurried: "Speaking of which, I want to thank you!"
Su Fei: "Thank us? Thank you for what?"
Jia Xu said calmly: "I have just joined the lord's army, and I am in urgent need of merit, and you gave me this opportunity!"
