Chapter 250 The Dilemma of the Scourge Army and Their Surprise Attack Plan!

Blood City.

Core Hall.

Xie Ming is watching the battlefield through the lord's vision.

The army of the Corpse Witch has arrived at the battle site.

No underestimate the enemy, no reservation, this time will be full of human threats!

In order to ensure that everything is foolproof, Xie Ming pulled a large amount of venture capital resources from the organization behind the scenes, thus creating a precious third-level special undead barracks building "Skeleton Giant Altar".

Unexpectedly!

A human leader is so difficult!

Although the human lord made himself pay a huge price.

Destroyed the undead bone army that had been carefully built for seven or eight years.

However, it doesn't matter. Xie Ming believes that as long as he can defeat this lord and obtain the mysterious relic in his hand, not only will all the losses be compensated, but his future limit will be greatly improved.

Xie Ming is unwilling to be a small follower in the organization.

He wants to become a legendary lord who is not inferior to the founder of the organization!

Today's situation may be a bit dangerous, but the road to becoming a legendary lord is bound to be bumpy. It's just a little bit of insignificant wind and frost. Let this lowly and humble human be the first stepping stone!

Xie Ming calmed down.

He began to examine the deployment.

At this moment, the generals of the Corpse Demon Tribe, led by "Ghost Skull" and "Flame Skeleton", are currently leading more than 80% of the territory's troops to appear in the Xianshan area, and are competing with the main force of the human invasion.

This part of the force includes:

300 acolytes and secret guards, 1,500 skeleton giants, 4,000 trickery corpses, and 2,000 evil-eating armored corpses.

In terms of the total number, this force has less than 10,000, but its combat power can crush the human army.

The acolytes and secret guards are all lord guards specially trained by Xie Ming. The weakest one has the level of a third-level first-class elite, and a few even reach the threshold of commander-level strength.

Not only are they powerful.

They are also proficient in various means.

It is a comprehensive reflection of the territory's heritage!

Skeleton giants are a special third-level army specially prepared for this battle. They will become the main force and play a decisive role in this war!

There are also 600 armored corpses and cursed corpses in the two corpse troops that have reached the third level.

As the saying goes.

Soldiers are not worth the number but the quality!

Just these more than 2,000 third-level elites.

In addition to the eight major generals led by "Ghost Skull" and "Flame Skeleton".

It is enough to give the human army a good drink.

The corpse witch leader Ghost Skull is a powerful evil corpse demon sorcerer. Among many hero units, his strength is almost second only to the great elder of the corpse witch leader, Bone Occlusion.

As for Flame Skeleton, he is the strongest corpse demon warrior in the corpse witch leader. Whether it is personal strength or luck skills, he is stronger than the previous Gray Decay.

Xie Ming assigned different tasks to the two confidants.

Ghost Skull led 300 acolytes and secret guards, plus all the cursed corpse troops, and they are working together to summon a large "Black Corruption Mist".

This is a unique method of corruption used by the Undead.

It can only be launched in the actual controlled area.

The black rot mist moves very slowly, but all buildings and living things will be corroded wherever it is covered.

This has little effect on the Undead or units polluted by the Abyss, but it is very dangerous to other regular living races, which can greatly reduce their combat effectiveness or even threaten their lives.

The task of the Ghost Skull is very simple.

Just summon the black rot to cover Tianshan Township.

In this way, not only will the buildings be slowly eroded, but all human units will also be continuously corroded. The final result is either to abandon the position and break through, or to suffocate to death in the poison.

If you choose to break through.

The Flame Corpse will lead the Skeleton Giant and the Doomed Armored Corpse troops to block and encircle. The rot mist will not reduce the combat effectiveness of the Undead, but will increase the recovery speed of the Undead, thereby increasing their combat effectiveness.

One thousand five hundred Skeleton Giants are the key to victory.

This kind of Skeleton Giant is not a regular clan soldier. It cannot be cultivated or upgraded, but it is also different from the soldiers summoned by most barracks buildings.

After all, the threshold for summoning Skeleton Giants is quite high.

Not only does it need to build a very valuable and expensive "Skeleton Giant Altar", but it also needs to consume the units of the Undead Clan as sacrifices, which will result in very high resource consumption in the process.

But once it is built.

It will become a terrifying combat force.

It is enough to suppress or even offset the threat of the human race's undead disaster!

Xie Ming has absolute confidence in his troops and subordinates. It is only a matter of time before this human army enters the Corpse Witch Territory and is wiped out.

The only variable is the human lord behind the scenes.

However, although they have never fought, the other party is just a human lord. No matter how powerful he is, how strong can he be? Perhaps his strength is not as good as his subordinate Jia Xu.

No matter what.

Xie Ming personally sits in the main city to coordinate everything, the Erosion Bone guards the burial ground to stabilize the rear, and the Ghost Skull and the Flame Skeleton lead the army to fight on the front line.

There is no flaw in such a deployment.

And there is an absolute home advantage.

Xie Ming felt that everything was safe.

…

Outside the Tianshan Township camp.

Black rotten fog kept creeping in from all directions.

Although the speed was slow, it was not far away and would arrive in a few hours.

If the rotten fog completely covered the camp, the human troops deployed here would definitely fall into a very dangerous situation, and finally they could only abandon the defensive position and take the initiative to attack.

This is too passive!

The Corpse Witch Leader must have dug a big pit.

Just waiting for the human army to come out and jump in.

In this situation, players would never allow NPCs to take action.

When faced with the requests of the five corps leaders, Jia Xu agreed to the player's request even though he knew that the Scourge Legion could not break through, and let the player try the Corpse Witch Leader's methods.

A quarter of an hour later.

The Scourge Army left the camp.

Little Bell: "What on earth are these undead doing?"

Chenxi: "I don't know, but I can be sure that there must be a large army of undead in these poisonous fogs!"

Midnight Pig Killer: "Yes, although they are hiding their heads and showing their tails, I, the Pig Master, have already sensed their presence."

Kuangdao Lao Wang: "It is estimated that there will be a lot of them. We will definitely not be able to defeat them. We can only kill as many as possible while testing the enemy's situation."

Xianyu Tuci said: "If everyone dies, just revive in Shansang City to replenish the BUFF, and then assemble at the Huangmei Township camp. We will then cooperate with the troops in the Tianshan Township stronghold."

"Don't be afraid of death, just join the Scourge Army!"

"Time is precious!"

"Everyone follow me!"

"Just rush!"

"..."

Four thousand people dispersed.

With forty small troops.

Try to kill into the corrupt fog from different directions.

This battle does not seek to repel the enemy, as long as the spying and finding out the enemy's situation are completed, it will be a victory.

Before the Scourge Army could break into the rotten fog, a powerful wave of bone spears and arrows flew out.

"Be careful!"

"Be careful to avoid!"

"..."

Many of the weaker Scourge Army were caught off guard and died on the spot after being pierced by bone spears.

Jubei Wangyue, Hei Tong Ruige and other Scourge Army generals quickly called on everyone to fight back. They all drew their bows to shoot into the rotten fog, or threw various range attack spells.

"Charge!"

Several third-level Scourge Army warriors, such as Xianyu Tu Ci and Hua Mulan, activated various self-defense skills, and then drove the Black Dragon Spirit Horse with a commando team to kill into the rotten fog.

Without waiting for them to get close.

A huge, hideous and terrifying humanoid skeleton monster suddenly rushed out of the thick black fog.

"This is..."

Each humanoid skeleton monster is twelve or thirteen meters tall.

Even if humans are riding horses in front of them, they are like insects and rats.

These skeletons are humanoid, with two horns on their heads and four arms. Their bones are thick and tight, and the bone joints are similar to the structure of shutters, as if they are wearing exoskeleton armor.

[Undead Skeleton Giant], 25th level elite unit... Introduction: A rare special soldier of the Undead, made by melting the bones of the dead sacrificed on the altar. As long as the soul fire is not completely destroyed, they will not be completely killed.

"Level 3!"

"It's a level 3 soldier!"

"I've never seen this type of soldier before!"

"Fuck, there are so many of them, it's too exaggerated!"

"..."

All the players were shocked.

Level 3 elites are super high-end combat power for players at this stage.

If there are only dozens or even hundreds of them, they may be able to fight.

Once the number exceeds 500.

It will be very difficult for the Scourge Army to deal with it alone.

Once the number exceeds 1,000.

It is impossible for the Scourge Army to defeat it with its current strength.

At this moment, at least thousands of Skeleton Giants appeared on the battlefield, and the visual impact alone was enough to shock people.

The skeleton monster held a huge bone hammer and a huge bone knife on each side.

Boom!

Bone hammers fell to the ground one after another.

The Scourge Army quickly took evasive action.

However, many people were still blown away by the energy shock wave.

"Go to hell!"

Jubei Wangyue rode the black dragon spirit horse to avoid the attacks of several giants.

During this process, he pulled the magic night bow in his hand and fired five arrows.

-

143! -164! -153! -146! -123!

Five powerful magic arrows.

All hit the target.

The skeleton giant's abdominal bones were broken one after another, and it also suffered about 800 damage, but the blood bar only dropped by one tenth.

Jubei Wangyue is not an ordinary player.

As one of the five major corps leaders, he is very powerful.

The magic night bow has been strengthened to the third-level blue quality.

Even his attack only caused about one-tenth of the damage, which was enough to show how tough the Skeleton Giant was!

Other Scourge troops also discovered this during the counterattack.

"Damn it!"

"This monster is so tough!"

"I can't even cut it!"

Although the Skeleton Giants have only two means of combat, namely, beating and chopping, their lethality is quite amazing. In addition, their thick skin and flesh are enough to give the Scourge Army a headache.

"This is not an ordinary 24 or 25 level elite monster!"

"Even among elite monsters, it can reach the first or second rate level!"

"Damn it!"

"The Corpse Witch Leader actually has such a powerful super soldier!"

"Fortunately, we didn't take it out in Huangmei Township, otherwise we would have suffered a lot at that time!"

"..."

More than a thousand Skeleton Giants easily suppressed with absolute advantage.

The four thousand Scourge Army was completely unable to shake the giant line.

Another troop came out of the creeping rotten fog.

This is a serious Corpse Demon troop.

There are about two thousand Armored Corpses, and the front row is a number of Corpse Demon hero units, including a Corpse Demon General covered with flame magic patterns.

This Corpse Demon is none other than.

It is the commander of this troop.

The first Corpse Demon Warrior of the Nether Blood City: Flame Skeleton.

When he saw the Scourge Army running around and struggling to resist being chased by the giants, he couldn't help but sneer.

"Humph, they are weak and humble humans after all. With this little power, they want to compete with the high-level troops created by the Lord? These humans are not as difficult to deal with as imagined."

That's right.

But the Scourge Army can't really be powerless to resist.

After all, among the dozens of third-level players, all of them have strength that is not inferior to first-class elites, and the outstanding ones have even reached the threshold of the commander level.

"Go to hell!"

Chopping down a street and adding Fierce Tiger Crazy Flame to the double swords, chopping a skeleton giant from head to toe.

He chopped more than a dozen times in a row, each knife caused an explosion, and each knife caused a critical hit. The burst of output made the giant's health bottom out.

When the giant fell.

A burst of hot energy broke out.

He was caught off guard and suffered huge damage while hacking down the street. Several players around him who were helping to cover him were not so lucky and were directly killed in one wave.

Green Luck Skill: Explosive Flame Aura!

This is the luck skill of the corpse demon leader Yan Hai!

The effect of this luck skill is very simple. When the unit with this luck skill is killed, it will produce an explosive flame shock to the surrounding hostile targets.

The damage of the explosive flame shock is positively correlated with the rank of the unit and the intensity of the damage received in the short period before being killed.

The Skeleton Giant is too tanky!

It complements the Explosive Flame Aura. When it is blessed, it is like a powerful bomb that can easily take away the surrounding humans besieging it.

"Fuck!"

"How can we fight this?"

"I can't stand it at all!"

"..."

The Scourge Army was defeated by the Skeleton Giant.

The Corpse Demon Flame Skeleton and other Corpse Demon hero units and troops had not yet made a move, and the Scourge Army felt like they were being crushed just by facing this giant!

"The rhythm is messed up."

"Retreat first!"

Seeing this, Ye Limeng quickly issued a retreat order on the public screen.

When the Scourge Army retreated to the vicinity of the camp, there were only about 2,000 people left, and the Skeleton Giants only lost a few dozen.

Such a result is not completely unacceptable. After all, the human Scourge cannot be eliminated. As long as it can cause consumption to the enemy, even a very small consumption is worth it!

But at this moment.

Chenxi discovered something and shouted: "Strange, these Skeleton Giants, why don't they explode loot?"

"Huh?"

"Really!"

"What's going on!"

Black Eyed Rui Ge's face changed: "Oh no, we may not have really killed them!"

As if to confirm what Rui Ge said.

The surface of the remains that were defeated and turned into a pile of bones suddenly lit up with a green light.

When a ball of fire appeared at the head, all the bones immediately floated up and re-formed into a skeleton giant.

It took less than two minutes.

The defeated skeleton giant was resurrected.

This scene shocked the Scourge Army deeply, and for the first time they felt real horror and fear.

"No way!"

"Are they the same as us!"

"They are also immortal!"

"Fuck, not only are they immortal, but they can also be resurrected on the spot. Isn't that too abnormal? How can we fight!"

"..."

The Scourge Army lost nearly half of its members.

The skeleton giants that were finally eliminated.

One by one, they were resurrected on the spot.

So far, the surface loss is 0!

It has always been the Scourge Army that consumes the enemy with the undead characteristics!

Now they are being taught a lesson by the skeleton giants!

Is the ability that the Scourge Army is most proud of not the only one?

Is there any other army with undead characteristics in this abyss world? !

The impact is too great!

It can be said to be subversive!

Even though they can be resurrected, the Skeleton Giant can be resurrected on the spot, and the Skeleton Giant is much stronger than the Scourge Army!

There is no chance of winning!

"Don't panic, don't panic!"

Seeing the morale of the troops plummet, Ye Limeng shouted: "Our immortality is given by the Lord. I don't think there is anyone in this world who can match us!"

"If this Skeleton Giant is really immortal, why did the Corpse Witch Leader wait until now to bring it out?"

"The facts are obvious!"

"Even if you think with your butt, you can think of the reason."

"They are not really immortal, but we have not mastered the mechanism and found the right way to eliminate them!"

"They are not able to be resurrected infinitely. Each resurrection must consume a huge cost. Otherwise, it is hard to explain why the Corpse Witch Leader did not use them to attack Woniu Mountain, but used ordinary Bone Tribe troops."

These words really worked.

The players just thought it made sense.

"Damn it!"

"I didn't expect the Corpse Witch Leader to be so difficult to fight!"

"But now is not the time to give up!"

"We must not retreat at this time, otherwise we will be laughed at by others!"

"Keep fighting!"

"For the honor of the Scourge!"

"Find a way to kill them!"

"..."

The terrifying skeleton giants continued to attack!

But at this moment, they had entered the attack range of the Tianshan Township camp, and countless attack spells from the Black Tiger Guards, Iron Eagle Guards and Arrow Towers were like a rainstorm.

At the same time.

[You have gained the blessing of the luck skill "Guardian Aura"! ]

[You have gained the blessing of the luck skill "Vajra Line"! ]

[You have gained the blessing of the luck skill "Loyalty Aura"! ]

[You have gained the blessing of the luck skill "Toughness Aura"! ]

The luck skill of the human general enveloped the Scourge Army, which greatly increased the attack and defense resistance of the Scourge Army and greatly improved its combat effectiveness.

The Scourge Army once again clashed with the Skeleton Giant.

Although the legion suffered serious casualties, the remaining ones were all elite masters. With the support of the two human generals and the assistance of long-range attacks, they were able to temporarily resist the advance of the Skeleton Giant.

However.

The players tried various methods.

But they could not completely kill the Skeleton Giant.

The Scourge Army fell one after another, and the situation was getting worse!

The players felt that this battle was particularly frustrating. They were not afraid of being wiped out, but such a complete annihilation was too meaningless and too useless!

With a loud shout.

Zhou Cang fell from the sky.

The burning black gold giant blade cut a Skeleton Giant in half from head to toe.

He directly ignored the explosive impact of the giant, and then turned around and rushed to the other giant, and the huge knife light directly cut it in half!

The third one!

The fourth one!

Almost one or two swords.

Players have to work hard to defeat a skeleton giant, and when facing Zhou Cang, they are as fragile as toys.

"General Zhou has taken action!"

"Awesome!"

"This damage is too explosive!"

"General Zhou's current strength is definitely at the overlord level!"

"..."

As the first famous general to follow Hang Yu.

Naturally, he received special care from the lord.

Zhou Cang's "Advanced Commander Template" has been upgraded to "Overlord Template" with the qualification spirit beads, plus the enhancement of the abyss physique, and now his strength is really very powerful.

At the same time.

The ten black tiger lieutenants took action one by one.

This suppressed the advance of the skeleton giant.

However, this does not mean that the situation has improved, because whether it is the players of the Scourge Army or NPCs such as Zhou Cang, they found that they could not kill the skeleton giant.

These skeleton giants did not explode after falling, and then they would be resurrected directly on the battlefield in a few minutes.

Even if Zhou Cang went down personally.

There is still a lot of pressure on the defense line.

The number of soldiers in the Scourge Army is still decreasing.

You know. So far, the Corpse Demon Lord has several heroic units and thousands of troops that have not been deployed!

If they also die.

The Tianshan Township stronghold will face a more severe test.

However.

At this moment.

The Corpse Witch Lord General Yan Hai suddenly ordered the troops to withdraw.

The Skeleton Giant abandoned the nearby camp and retreated to the Corruption Mist with other Undead troops.

"What's going on?"

"Why did the Undead retreat!"

"They obviously have the upper hand!"

The enemy's sudden retreat puzzled the Scourge Army.

He raised his glass to the moon and looked at the squirming Corruption Mist and said: "I think this attack is just a test, and the Corpse Witch Lord is not sure to swallow us in one breath!"

"Yes!"

"The territory has barriers and walls!"

"There is another general who is good at defense like General Wenpin!"

"Even if the Corpse Witch Lord is well prepared this time, it will be difficult for them to break through the defense line, so they are waiting for a better opportunity to attack."

"At this speed."

"The black fog will cover the territory within one or two hours."

"That should be the time for the Corpse Witch Lord to launch a full-scale attack!"

"What?"

"What should we do?"

"The enemy this time is too difficult, and our people are exhausted. This time I feel that there is a big trouble!"

"Go back first!"

"Consult the military advisor!"

"..."

There are only a few hundred people left in the Scourge Army.

It is not enough to launch a round of tests.

This time, they encountered such a difficult tough guy as the Skeleton Giant, and there was no player's resurrection point nearby. The Scourge Army's round-robin battle has failed. This battle is indeed unprecedentedly difficult!

According to the current situation, let alone conquering the Corpse Witch Lord within seven days, it is a problem whether they can hold this Corpse Witch Lord stronghold!

The top leaders of the major Scourge Armies are anxious.

In this situation, a head-on confrontation will definitely not work. Even if you can win, the territory troops will suffer heavy casualties!

The players hurried to Jia Xu.

"Military Advisor!"

"Something bad is happening!"

"We are being abused so badly!"

Xiao Lingdang: "You must have seen that the skeleton giants outside are impossible to kill. We killed one or two hundred of them, but they all resurrected in a few minutes!"

Ye Limeng: "What is going on? I wonder if you, the military advisor, have seen anything."

Jia Xu said calmly: "These skeleton giants are just special soul fires. As long as the soul fire is not extinguished, there is no way to kill them completely."

The boss is the boss.

It seems that he has long seen through the mystery.

Hei Tong Rui Ge hurriedly asked: "What means should we use to eliminate the soul fire of the skeleton giants?"

Jia Xu said: "In a head-on battle, even if I do it myself, it is not easy to completely eliminate them."

Hearing this.

The hearts of the people in the disaster army sank again.

How powerful are Jia Xu's means and abilities?

If even he has a hard time destroying these giants from the front, then these giants are really invincible!

Jia Xu: "But you don't have to worry too much. Summoning these giants requires a lot of cost, and the same is true for resurrection. This is why the Corpse Witch Leader did not continue to attack."

Raise the cup and look at the moon: "Since it is impossible to destroy them from the front, are there other ways to crack it?"

Jia Xu looked at him and nodded with relief.

"What? There is a way!"

"Please give me some advice, Military Advisor Jia!"

Jia Xu still said in a leisurely tone: "In fact, from the moment the Corpse Witch Leader's army appeared here, I think we are close to winning this war."

This made everyone confused.

The situation on the front line is so critical that it can almost be described as a matter of life and death, as precarious as an egg...

Unless the Lord leads the Canglong Guard to come in person, there is no way to reverse it.

Jia Xu: "The reason why this skeleton giant is difficult to kill and can be resurrected is because half of their soul fire is sealed in the altar of the Bone Burial City."

"We don't need to fight them head-on on the front battlefield. We only need to form a team to sneak into the Bone Burial City and destroy this altar. This can greatly weaken this army and make it easy to kill!"

While speaking.

Jia Xu waved his hand lightly.

The shadow skeleton puppet appeared behind him.

Jia Xu: "I have already found the hidden location of the Bone Burial City in advance, and I have also figured out the situation inside the Bone Burial City. Now I need to organize a team to sneak into it and implement the plan!"

"But this matter is somewhat difficult. Although Xie Ming did not personally guard the Bone Burial City, he sent his most capable subordinate. If you want to destroy the altar, you must first get past him."

"If you can't complete the task in a very short time, once Xie Ming personally teleports down, it is likely to cause the task to fail."

Hidden task!

This is a hidden task!

Ye Limeng, Black Eyed Ruige, Little Bell, Drinking Moon, King Arthur and others were all excited!

Jia Xu's Shadow Skeleton.

Inherited all the abilities of Skeleton Gan Ning!

Its Shadow March can lead a small team to go deep into the enemy's rear without anyone noticing!

Since Jia Xu revealed the plan to the players.

He must be preparing to select players from the players.

This is a hidden mission with extremely high gold content, and it is the key to the success of the entire battle!

If you can participate in this action!

If you can successfully complete the task!

Then you can not only make great contributions in this war!

You can also gain great reputation among the vast number of players!

No one can resist such temptation!

Black Eyed Ruige still said: "Master Military Advisor, since this operation is so important, why don't you take action yourself to be safe?"

"I can't leave."

Jia Xu said: "I have set up a formation to delay the erosion of the territory by the rotten fog, but this formation must be activated by me personally."

"In addition, only if I appear in person can I attract the attention of Xie Ming and lay the foundation for the success of the next series of actions."

Jia Xu can't leave.

Wen Pin certainly can't leave either.

The Shadow Skeleton must be dispatched.

Jia Xu then arranged for Zhou Cang to participate in the operation.

In this way, the lineup with the combat power of two overlords is enough to complete this operation.

But.

There are still eight empty seats in the car.

Eight people can be pulled together to participate in the operation.

If we consider it from the perspective of strength, the most suitable candidates must be the eight initial dragon guards, but they did not follow this expedition.

As for the comparison of the combat power of ordinary dragon guards, the ten black tiger lieutenants, and the commander-level combat power of the Scourge Army.

The Scourge Army has no advantage in strength.

But in the end, Jia Xu decided to choose eight Scourge Army.

Because the top Scourge Army, although not as good as the Blue Dragon Guards or the Black Tiger Captain, is not so bad that it cannot be used.

The most important thing is.

The Scourge Army can be used as consumables at any time.

This can provide cover for Zhou Cang and the Skeletons to retreat.

In addition, the Scourge Army's drop ability can also be used in this operation, which can earn more resources for the territory.

(PS: Ask for recommendation votes on Monday! Also ask for monthly votes! The monthly votes dropped out of 500! Today's update is a bit late, mainly because I have been too busy recently, which has also had a negative impact on my writing status and rhythm control ability. I will try to get back to normal as soon as possible!)
