Chapter 253 The Final Showdown! The Lord Takes Action!

The Scourge Army hurried to clean up the battlefield.

[You picked up the spoils, Abyss Essence +41500, Abyss Magic Crystal +350, Skeleton Giant Sword (Dead Bones) +1, Skeleton Giant Bone Hammer (Dead Bones) +1, Skeleton Giant Armor (Dead Bones) +1! ]

Front-winding pissing three thousand feet: "Fuck! This essence output and magic crystal drop are too rich!"

Wind-like warrior: "The output of magic crystals from the monsters in the Stars Camp is notoriously high! The Skeleton Giant is a third-level elite! This drop is normal!"

"It's okay if the magic crystal drop is high."

"Each giant can produce 41500 essence!"

"This time, most of the Skeleton Giants were destroyed by our Scourge Army. Even if we count 1,000, the essence of these giants alone is as high as more than 40 million."

"It's so cool!"

"This time it's a payday!"

"..."

The players were very excited.

Not to mention the strategic value of this battle and the influence of the Abyss, the spoils alone are a huge profit!

Xianyu Tuci reminded: "Don't celebrate yet, hurry up, a lot of energy has been lost, every second of delay is a loss!"

Indeed.

In theory.

A thousand skeleton giants can explode more than 40 million energy.

But considering the loss, the actual amount obtained will be less than this number.

Even so.

This harvest is still very large.

The players quickly picked up all the loot, because everyone signed the contract, each loot will be sealed before distribution, and the relevant information will be displayed on the public screen of the loot page.

When the loot data is refreshed.

Every player has a strong sense of satisfaction.

Among them, the drops of hero units such as Ghost Skull and Flame Skeleton are particularly eye-catching.

[You picked up the loot, energy +1.9 million, magic crystal +18,000, undead ritual staff (corpse demon) +1 evil spirit summoning ring (corpse demon) +1, corpse king summoning ring (corpse demon) +1! 】

【You picked up the loot, Essence +1.95 million, Magic Crystal +18,000, Burning Flame Skeleton Greatsword (Corpse) +1, Flame Skeleton Armor Four-piece Set +1! 】

【……】

All the players exclaimed that it was awesome!

The drops of Ghost Skull and Flame Skeleton are all blue.

The drops of the other hero units are green.

Although the hard power of Ghost Skull and Flame Skeleton is somewhat different from that of the Overlord Unit, the equipment on them is obviously of blue quality, which is why such a rich drop can be formed.

The Ghost Skull dropped a staff and two accessories.

[Staff of the Undead Ritual +6], third-level equipment, blue medium quality, spell attack +355, necromancy spell attack power +102, spirit +100, will +100, additional skills: Undead Ritual, durability 70/70.

This staff not only has a very good attribute increase, but has also been enhanced to level 6, which can save a lot of enhancement costs.

The skill "Ritual of the Dead" attached to the Ritual Staff of the Dead can increase the power of dead summoning skills and reduce the cooldown time.

The other two pieces of equipment dropped by the Ghost Skull are a "Summoning Ring of Evil Spirits" and a "Summoning Ring of Corpse Kings".

These two pieces of equipment are of third-grade inferior quality. Although the ring attributes are not very special, they are respectively attached with "Summoning of Evil Spirits with Trickery" and "Summoning of Corpse Kings with Doom".

You can see it from the names of the skills.

Both skills are summoning skills. The former can summon an evil spirit that is good at spell attacks, and the latter can summon a powerful corpse king. The strength is related to the attributes of the summoner himself.

The highest strength can reach the top commander!

If used with the Ritual Staff of the Dead, theoretically speaking, the highest can summon an entry-level overlord. Of course, this has extremely high requirements on the attributes of the equipment holder.

"Too awesome!"

"This is definitely a top-grade equipment!"

"I don't know which big guy will take it in the end!"

"If you can hold these three pieces of equipment at the same time, can't you go the route of summoning dead spirits?"

"..."

The Ghost Skull exploded three pieces of extremely valuable equipment.

And the Flame Skeleton even exploded five top-quality equipment in one go.

[Burning Flame Skeleton Greatsword +7], third-level equipment, blue medium-quality, attack +402, strength +100, agility +100, fire attack +100, critical damage +65%, attached skill: Curse of Eternal Flame, durability 70/70.

This is a weapon with excellent attributes and enhanced to level 7.

The attached skill "Curse of Eternal Flame" can cause extremely stubborn burning curses to the target, thereby causing continuous and large amounts of damage.

"Good weapon!"

King Arthur has been worried about not having a powerful enough weapon recently.

"This weapon is ready to be purchased by my Ragnarok Corps. I hope that my friends will give King Arthur a face when the time comes!"

The Ragnarok Corps is one of the five major corps after all. The weapons that the leader King Arthur personally favored are definitely not something that ordinary players can compete with. Other big guys will not offend a large corps for a piece of equipment unless necessary.

Since King Arthur asked for it himself.

This equipment will most likely belong to him in the end.

In addition to the giant sword, the Flame Skeleton also dropped four blue low-grade equipment. Although the quality and attributes are slightly inferior, it is very rare that these four pieces of equipment are a set.

They are composed of "Flame Skeleton Breastplate", "Flame Skeleton Leggings", "Flame Skeleton Sleeve Armor", and "Flame Skeleton Combat Boots".

If you can collect all four pieces of equipment at the same time.

You can trigger the set effect.

[Flame Skeleton Armor Set Effect], HP +500, ATK +100, with additional skill: Fire Rage.

[Fire Rage], after activating the skill, consumes 1% of HP per second, restores 5% of mana per second and increases ATK by 1%, removes all negative states, and does not exceed the cooldown time of blue quality martial arts skills -70%, with a maximum duration of 100 seconds.

"Awesome!"

"It's a blue quality set!"

"This is a very strong BUFF skill!"

"I guess the big guys who pursue extreme output and burst will be interested in this set of equipment!"

"Yeah, I don't know which big guy will get it in the end!"

"..."

The spoils dropped by the two corpse demon hero units are extremely valuable. The quality of the drops dropped by the other few is a little inferior, but there are also many highlights that can be said to have their own merits.

Not long after.

The Scourge Army finished collecting the spoils.

This battle successfully annihilated the main force of the Corpse Witch Lord.

Among them, there are 300 acolytes, 1500 skeleton giants, 2000 doomed armored corpses, and 4000 tricked cursed corpses.

Most of the skeleton giants were annihilated by the Scourge Army, and a small part of the armored corpse troops and cursed corpses were also annihilated by the Scourge Army.

The acolytes are a pity.

Although this unit has only 300 people, as a super soldier created by the corpse witch leader with concentrated resources, they are not only first-class third-level elites, but also more than 20 of them have reached the commander level.

However, because super soldiers are particularly dangerous, most of them are killed by Jia Xu and the Canglong Guards first, and less than one-fifth of them die in the hands of players.

All players sighed.

Although a considerable number of low-level ones were eliminated by NPC troops.

However, the performance and exploits of the Scourge Army are also very eye-catching.

The Scourge Army obtained about 1.05 million magic crystals from the spoils, and more than 60 million essences.

The scale of income.

Unprecedented.

The Scourge sent several teams to take the magic crystal back to prevent it from exploding in the next battle.

The Abyss Essence was directly divided.

Ye Limeng, Hei Tong Ruige and eight others did not directly participate in the battle.

Their sabotage operations behind enemy lines played an important role in this battle.

This amount of essence was enough to make up for the loss caused by several deaths, and it also allowed a large number of level 10 players to break through to the second level, and many level 20 players to break through to the third level.

…………

Luoshui Main City.

In the core hall.

Xiao Ba suggested: "10 pieces of luck spirit beads and 20 pieces of qualification spirit beads appeared in this war. According to your instructions, I have recovered them as soon as possible."

"Well done!"

Hang Yu asked: "Report the brief situation of the spirit income in this round of battle."

Xiao Ba: "The number of casualties of the natural disaster army in this round of battle is 14,531, plus the scattered spirit recovered from the battlefield, the total income is about 155 million."

Xiao Ba continued: "In addition, the total number of magic crystals generated is 1.15 million, the total number of second-level equipment is 20,532, and the total number of third-level equipment is 4,943!"

Hang Yu was very satisfied: "The corpse witch territory has not been taken down yet, and this wave of resource income is really rich, but the magic crystals are still in the hands of the players. I hope they will hand them over as soon as possible."

Xiao Ba suggested: "The players have formed two teams dedicated to escorting magic crystals. If the master can let them be killed halfway, then according to the rules, the magic crystals will all fall and return directly to the territory."

Hang Yu was speechless when he heard this.

Xiao Ba is really a living devil.

He actually instigated Hang Yu to assassinate the team of players who were protecting the magic crystals.

In this way, millions of magic crystals can be collected from the players at the fastest speed without paying any price.

Of course.

Hang Yu did not adopt Xiao Ba's suggestion.

First of all, although Hang Yu is a rule maker, he will abide by the rules he made most of the time.

Otherwise, if he really wanted to steal the players' loot, he could do it without anyone noticing by using the relic Jubao Lingzhu. There is no need for such despicable means, which would hurt the players' gaming experience too much.

Secondly, the current contribution point liquidity of the territory is seriously insufficient. There are too many game function props, or services and commodities that require contribution points, and the contribution points in the hands of players are about to be squeezed dry.

Hang Yu believes.

Given the current poverty of the players.

This batch of magic crystals will soon be exchanged for contribution points by the players.

Hang Yu can just take this opportunity and three rounds of tasks to issue a large amount of contribution points to inject fresh water into the territory's almost exhausted liquidity to meet the players' daily economic activities and cultivation consumption.

As for the income from the essence part?

Hang Yu was not going to save it either.

He had already set a lower limit and upper limit for the territory's energy reserves at this stage, with the lower limit being 80 million energy and the upper limit being 150 million energy.

As long as the territory's energy reserves at this stage remain in this range, it will be enough to maintain daily tasks and turnover.

It would not work if it were too low.

It would not be necessary if it were too high.

The current territory's energy reserves are sufficient, and the Corpse Witch Territory Operation has not yet ended, so there will definitely be a lot of income in the future.

These extra energy will be used in the development of the territory as soon as possible, such as self-cultivation, increased investment in the Blue Dragon Guard, and the development and training of other territory personnel, or issuing more tasks for the Scourge Army.

At this time.

Xiao Ba reminded: "Master, the territory troops are about to arrive at Shaxian City, and a new round of battle is about to begin." Hang Yu nodded slightly: "The efficiency is quite high!" He saw through the lord's vision. The natural disaster army is heading north with the main force. The Xianshan area is several times larger than the Woniu Mountain area, and the environment and terrain are also very complex. It takes at least several days to walk from south to north. It is different from Woniu Mountain, which has only one city. There are four cities in the Xianshan area, which are distributed in the southeast, northwest, and they are: Xiling City, Shaxian City, Zhu City, and E City. Xiling City is located in the north, closest to the corpse demon main city. Shaxian City is located in the south, closest to the human leader Woniu Mountain. The human leader's army set out from Tianshan Township and arrived in Shaxian in less than 200 miles. Because the legions are generally equipped with spirit horses, they can arrive in more than an hour with full force march. Hang Yu can see it. The human legion is on the march. They have passed through several township-level blessing points. There was no obstruction in the process.

This shows that the main force of the Corpse Witch Territory has been basically exhausted in Tianshan Township, at least the troops in the Xianshan area are completely empty, and are not enough to pose a threat to the human army.

Hang Yu speculated.

After Xie Ming summoned the Skeleton Giant Altar and built a powerful Skeleton Giant Army, the resources of this Corpse Witch Territory were basically exhausted, and it was difficult to summon another army in such a short time.

Even if there are still resources.

Even if a few thousand more troops can be summoned.

The combat effectiveness of these new recruits who have not been trained and built will not be high.

And it is impossible to directly transfer troops from the Corpse Witch Territory’s main city to the Xianshan area.

Now is the best time to capture Shaxian.

Once the Corpse Witch Territory loses this city, it will be impossible to drive humans out of the Xianshan area, which will make them completely fail at the strategic level and fall into a very passive situation from then on.

"The time has come!"

"It's time to end this war!"

Hang Yu left a hundred Canglong Guards in the core hall just in case, and at the same time put the main city on full alert.

Although the current situation of the Corpse Witch Lord makes it almost impossible to deploy forces to the Luoshui area, even if the probability is small, it must be prevented.

After making preparations.

He activated the teleport and left the main city.

…………

At the same time.

The human army arrived at Shaxian City.

The first round of exploratory attacks has begun.

Xianyu Tuci and other players have not participated in the battle for the time being but are watching.

"Is this Shaxian?"

"It looks desolate!"

"These damn undead are really useless!"

"..."

The city governed by the Undead Lord.

It always looks desolate, dilapidated and lifeless.

Shaxian is shrouded in low temperatures and severe cold that ordinary people cannot bear, so that the city walls and nearby wilderness are frozen.

There are usually residents in and outside this city, but these "residents" are not living people, but servants of the Bone Clan.

They are different from the Bone Clan warriors sleeping in the Buried Bone City.

The level of these undead skeletons is generally no more than level 5, and their combat power can be basically ignored in the Corpse Witch Territory, so they are not responsible for fighting and are pure cheap labor.

Because their personality and self-awareness are erased, they work hard and are willing to work hard, so they can engage in work such as cultivating undead materials and collecting ore, thus creating value for the territory day after day.

Mulan: "The population in Xianshan area was quite large! They were all killed by the damn corpse demons!"

Green Fox: "It's a pity, even if we take over the Corpse Witch Territory, I'm afraid there won't be so many people for reconstruction."

"The corpse demons are damned!"

As a plot party who likes to study the background and dig out the game story, Chimei Wangliang is heartbroken when facing the loss of 100,000 people in the Corpse Witch Territory!

Other players are also very annoyed.

So many NPCs are gone.

How much game content will be lost!

The current total population of the territory is only more than 400,000, and once the Corpse Witch Territory is conquered, the territory can accommodate at least 5 million to 10 million people. The population gap is really too big.

In this world.

Population is a precious resource.

It is also a reflection of the territory's heritage.

Of course, if the players' grief is only due to the loss of interests and game content, then the people who were born and raised in this world feel the pain deeply.

Wen Pin and his soldiers are mostly furious at this moment, or mourning for their compatriots who have suffered misfortune on this land.

Tragedy is not an isolated case!

A world shrouded in the abyss dream!

I am afraid that there are still tens of billions of people in dire straits.

Wen Pin, Zhou Cang, Zhang Zhongjing and others firmly believe that the lord they follow and assist is the only savior!

"Captain Ye and Captain Rui are here!"

The Scourge Army was in a commotion. It turned out that eight players, including Ye Limeng, Black Eyed Ruige, Xiao Lingdang, and Jubei Wangyue, caught up with the main force with some elite players with fast horses.

"Finally caught up!"

"Finally I didn't miss this important battle!"

Brother Black Eyed Rui breathed a sigh of relief, "Luckily I got a precious horse like the Black Dragon Spirit Horse, otherwise I might not be able to catch up with the main force."

Ye Limeng smiled brightly: "Hahaha, Shaxian City is just around the corner, and there are still four and a half days left in the seven-day deadline. This efficiency is much higher than expected!"

"Yeah!"

"I didn't expect to reach Shaxian City so quickly!"

"The forums and major media are all shocked. Our Scourge Army's performance this time has been the talk of the town!"

"Although I don't know if I can complete all three missions within seven days, at least the second stage won't be a problem!"

"According to reconnaissance!"

"Shaxian City is short of troops!"

"Although the Corpse Witch Lord has gathered troops from all over the Xianshan area in time, the total number of Corpse Demons is only about 1,000 and can't stop our full-force attack!"

"..."

The players of the Scourge Army are full of confidence.

Even a fool can see the current situation.

The Corpse Witch Lord has few soldiers, especially in the Xianshan area. With the current strength of the human army, it is easy to capture Shaxian!

Black Eyed Rui Ge said: "Don't be careless! Xie Ming, the lord of the Corpse Witch Territory, should not be underestimated! He will never watch this city being captured by us!" Midnight Pig Killer: "He is almost left alone, can he still do something cruel?" Ye Limeng: "We fought with him in the Buried Bone City, this guy is far more terrifying than everyone imagined!" Little Bell also nodded: "Even if the Corpse Witch Territory has no troops available, the combat power of this lord alone can almost defeat thousands of troops!" "What?" "So exaggerated!" "Then isn't there still a variable in this battle?" "..." Ye Limeng, Black Eyed Rui Ge and others fought with Xie Ming himself in the Buried Bone Ground in advance. Although no one knows the details of the fight, it is not difficult to see from their solemn expressions at the moment. Xie Ming is the lord. It is the last trump card of the Corpse Witch Territory. Its combat power and means are far more terrifying than imagined. So much so that the eight masters of the Calamity Army who have personally experienced it. At this moment, they were still so timid even though they had an overwhelming advantage.

Jia Xu suddenly opened his eyes: "General Wen, General Zhou, the time has come, our chance to take action is coming!"

Is it finally coming?

Wen Pin and Zhou Cang were shocked.

At this time, the tentative attack was over.

Jia Xu did not give the order to attack the city with all his strength.

He smiled and shouted to the city: "Sir Xie Ming, since I have come in person, why don't you show up and see me?"

As soon as the voice fell.

A terrifying pressure.

Erupted from Shaxian City.

It instantly swept all the humans present.

The players of the Scourge Army immediately received relevant prompts.

[You are affected by the "Power of the Corpse King", all attributes -10%, skill cooling time +10%, duration 60 seconds! ]

[You are affected by the "Power of the Corpse King", all attributes -10%, skill cooling time +10%, duration 60 seconds! 】

"Fuck!"

"Such a strong sense of oppression!"

"It can actually affect the attributes of all of us!"

"..."

Raising a glass to the moon: "It's the Corpse Witch Lord. He really came to Shaxian City in person. This battle is definitely not as easy as everyone imagined!"

Everyone saw a sudden space twist above Shaxian City, and a corpse demon wearing a crown and holding a long staff appeared in front of everyone.

[Corpse Demon Lord: Xie Ming], a level 30 overlord unit...

Although this is not the first time that players have seen Xie Ming, there is no doubt that this is the real Xie Ming!

At this moment, Xie Ming did not hide his breath and power. For the first time, the Scourge Legion deeply felt how terrifying the strength of a Star Lord could be!

Back then.

The battle in Huangmei Township.

With only a mirror image.

Xie Ming could suppress Jia Xu.

Now that the real body has come in person, it is conceivable how powerful he is.

"Is this the true strength of the Star Lord?"

Jia Xu narrowed his eyes slightly when facing the Corpse Witch Lord in front of him, "Awesome, I have only felt such oppression from Dian Wei."

Wen Pin was slightly surprised when he heard this.

Is the Corpse Witch Lord's strength similar to Dian Wei?

Even if Dian Wei is weakened by the Six-party Luck Array, he can suppress all the top masters in Wancheng area, including Jia Xu, or fight against the combat power of the legion level by himself!

Although Shaxian's troops are empty.

But the defense facilities are very complete.

There are as many as six third-level barrier towers alone.

There are countless third-level spell towers, third-level arrow towers and other buildings, equipment, and formations unique to the Undead Clan.

If Xie Ming personally guards the city, relying on his powerful strength and the city's extremely solid defense, he may be able to temporarily block the attack of the human army.

During this process, the Corpse Witches will continue to enter the Xianshan area, arriving at Shaxian from Xiling City or various teleportation points. Even if they can capture the city, it will cost humans a huge price.

As expected.

This battle.

It is not as easy as imagined.

Xie Ming opened his five eyes, and the terrifying aura and oppression made the air within a radius of tens of thousands of meters seem to be completely frozen.

The Star Lord was extremely angry. He could not accept being forced to such a point by a group of humans. This was not only the biggest crisis he had ever encountered in his life, but also the biggest humiliation he had ever faced.

This shame must be washed away personally!

Although the human army was at the gates of the city, and although the human army was in high spirits, the Corpse Witches had not yet reached the point of complete defeat.

It's not over yet!

I haven't lost yet!

I can ask the organization for help!

Even at the cost of selling out the sovereignty of the territory.

The new recruits of the clan of the evil corpse demon can reach the second-order combat power of level 11. As long as there are enough magic crystals and resources, they can immediately rebuild a large army to fill the front line.

Even if the strength is weaker.

It is more than enough for defense.

Although the territory has no energy reserves.

But special troops can be quickly summoned through barracks buildings and facilities.

Although these special troops cannot be cultivated, they can quickly form a powerful combat force like the skeleton giant troops!

As long as you survive this disaster.

There is still a chance to turn the tables!

All you have to do now is to hold on for half a day!

At this moment, Xie Ming is almost at the end of his rope.

But he is like a gambler who is about to lose everything. He is not willing to fail like this and still fantasizes about turning the tables.

It is still very dangerous to fight in a corner.

If Xie Ming resists stubbornly, even if the human army can break the city, it will pay a huge casualties and cost in the process.

However.

Just when the sword is drawn.

The war is about to break out.

A portal suddenly appeared on the battlefield.

A figure wearing dark gold armor and holding a double-edged spear, riding a majestic black dragon horse, slowly walked out of it. His aura was very restrained and low-key, making it difficult to tell the strength of the two.

Xie Ming's expression changed drastically: "You are..."

"I am here to end this war!" The man's eyes swept across the crowd and fell on the corpse witch lord, "Xie Ming, you should know very well that in this situation, whether I take action or not, you have already lost!"

The moment he appeared.

The morale of the human camp suddenly soared!

The players of the Scourge Army were even more surprised and shouted: "Lord!"

(PS: Ask for monthly tickets!)
