With a single clench of his hand, the surrounding crimson aura instantly shattered, and the evil orc on the ninth floor collapsed.
"Barbarians, you are courting death!"
The man's eyes flashed with green light, and his body emanated a dense black light that spread out like ripples. The standing orc could no longer withstand it and crashed heavily to the ground.
“You, who are you?” Sako’s pupils dilated, a terrifying image flashed through his mind, his back went cold, and cold sweat poured down his back. “Darkness, the Dark Elf race.”
"Since you know who I am, why don't you kneel down?" The man's face was full of disdain, and the corners of his mouth were turned up.
Suddenly, a blood-red battle axe fell from above, accompanied by a chilling voice: "We are both races that are not welcomed by outsiders, so is it really necessary to be so aggressive within our own ranks?"
Kilgathan approached slowly from a distance.
Boom!
A gash hundreds of meters wide and tens of meters deep was ripped into the ground.
The man's pupils contracted, and he nodded. "Some strength, but not much!"
Kilga sneered, "Isn't it a bit beneath the dignity of the three elven leaders to compare their strength with that of ordinary soldiers?"
"You?" The man was slightly angry, glanced around, then changed his expression. "How can we cooperate without testing your strength?"
Sako was overjoyed and transmitted his voice, "Chieftain, the Dark Elf race's abilities can amplify witchcraft and also enhance the strength of ordinary warriors. As long as they keep sending people over, dealing with the Dragon Kingdom people will be a piece of cake."
“They are a double-edged sword. If used well, they can benefit us; if used poorly, they can hurt us.” Kilga transmitted his voice through a secret technique. “Observe them first, then make a decision.”
"Listen to the clan leader," Sako transmitted his voice.
Kilga smiled slightly, clasped his hands in a fist and bowed, "May I ask how you are addressed?"
“Ferdinand Yale!”
"Kilgardan has met the three giants."
A hint of surprise flashed in Yale's eyes. "Nice to meet you!"
Sakho rushed between the two with a smile on his face, "This isn't the place to talk, please come inside!"
Yale nodded and followed behind.
Soon, they arrived at a giant cave.
"Please sit down!"
"You suffered a defeat?" Yar frowned slightly as he looked at the extremely shabby headquarters.
"Yes! Here's what happened..."
After learning the details, Yale was extremely shocked. "Are you sure there's no exaggeration?"
"Every word is true!"
"It seems I need to readjust my plans." Yell suddenly stood up, forming hand seals, and a palm-sized black hole appeared in front of him. He immediately pushed the recording box into it.
"We'll get news within three days at the latest."
“Alright!” Kilga gestured for him to leave. “You must be tired from your journey, go and rest first. I’ll treat you to a welcome dinner tonight.”
Without any hesitation, Yale nodded and left with his men.
After confirming that he couldn't hear him, Sako whispered, "Chief, how many troops do you think they will send?"
"It's hard to say." Kilgadan pondered for a moment. "At most 200,000, at least 50,000."
"The mighty Elven Empire only sent this few people?" Sako was utterly astonished.
"Hmph!" Kilga pointed to the sky. "You still think they're the powerful elven empire they used to be? These past years of war have drastically reduced their resources and population. Otherwise, why would they speak to you and me so politely?"
"Well, fifty thousand it is, it's better than nothing."
"Even if only 50,000 come, it is a hundred times better for the people of China."
"If that's true, what are we afraid of?" Sako laughed excitedly.
Kil'jaeden's expression was solemn. "There's a saying that goes, 'One should not have the heart to harm others, but one must have the heart to guard against others.' The Dark Elves are notorious throughout the universe. Now we have a common enemy, so we can cooperate."
Once the Dragon Kingdom is conquered, do you think they might turn against their own side?
Sakho broke out in a cold sweat. "The chieftain is right. I'll have my trusted men keep a close eye on them. If they don't have any ill intentions, all is well. If they do, we'll wipe them out."
"Don't escalate the conflict unless absolutely necessary," Kilgore said with a knowing smile. "We're still counting on their people to fill the gaps!"
"Haha, brilliant!" Sakho gave a thumbs up...
Shennongjia, the headquarters of the Dragon Kingdom.
"Have you found out what that black gas was?" Li Tianyi asked anxiously, pacing back and forth with his phone in hand.
Jia Qingxue's voice came through: "After extensive analysis, it has been confirmed that it is dark matter."
"How threatening is it?"
“Great!” Jia Qingxue paused for a moment, “Brother Tian, you don’t need to worry. With our current technology, we can handle it more than enough.”
Li Tianyi felt much relieved. "Ask Qing'er when the Interstellar Forging Furnace Infinite Forging Factory will be completed."
"I'm currently at a bottleneck. Scientific research can sometimes be completed in an instant, and sometimes it takes an extremely long time." Jia Qingxue pounded her chest and coughed violently.
"Qingxue, Qingxue, are you alright?" Li Tianyi asked anxiously.
"You bad guy!" Mo Xiao said angrily, grabbing the phone. "I'm warning you, if you dare disturb my master's rest again, I'm quitting."
Li Tianyi was embarrassed and said with a wry smile, "I only thought about getting them to develop more powerful weapons, but I never thought that their bodies were already overdrawn. If this continues, let alone developing more powerful weapons, it will be difficult to even maintain the status quo."
After a pause, he said very seriously, "Mo Sanmei, immediately stop your research work. Also, notify the entire research base to take a seven-day leave. Anyone who disobeys this order will be banned from touching the research equipment for three years."
“This won’t do!” Jia Qingxue objected.
"There's no room for negotiation on this matter." Li Tianyi said sternly, issuing the order to all departments, "The research base will be closed for seven days, immediately!"
With the hidden danger eliminated, Li Tianyi felt much better. He lit a cigarette and looked into the depths of Shennongjia.
As time went by, he had already smoked several cigarettes.
Just as I was about to light another cigarette, Chunyu Sisi came up to me, snatched the cigarette pack away, and said, "Smoking too much is bad for you."
“I’m frustrated.” Li Tianyi pointed at the sand table, his eyes full of helplessness. “The technological level of the Dragon Kingdom is inferior to that of the invaders, which is why I am eager to improve to the level of the invaders’ technology, and if possible, surpass them.”
“I understand.” Chunyu Sisi took Li Tianyi’s arm. “From the moment the first alien creature came to Dragon Kingdom, I learned one thing: this is a protracted war that could last for who knows how many years. If we want to defend Dragon Kingdom, we can’t be too hasty.”
Li Tianyi was shocked. "You've got it all figured out. I was too radical."
“Your initial intention was good, but you were a bit too hasty.” Chunyu Sisi leaned her head against him and said softly, “Brother Tian, thank you for everything you have done for the Dragon Kingdom. They may not understand, but the sisters see it all. If it weren’t for your hard work and always being at the forefront, there would be no Dragon Kingdom as we know it today.”
Li Tian's eyes reddened, his nose tingled, and he hugged her tightly, giving her a deep kiss. "Thank you!"
It's only been a little over a year since the apocalypse, and he has carried so much on his shoulders. He was afraid that some people wouldn't understand his good intentions, so how could he not be moved when he heard these words?
After a long while, the two finally separated.
Li Tianyi's mindset changed, his thinking was completely opened, and he began to plan a long road of development.
Upon hearing the news, Number Three praised it repeatedly and immediately relayed the message to Number One.
The order came down quickly from above: "Go ahead and do it boldly!"
Li Tianyi completely let go of his mental burdens and devoted himself wholeheartedly to development. The Dragon Kingdom is transforming into a sharp sword that has been unsheathed. In time, it will surely be invincible wherever its sword points.
Half a day later.
The sky trembled again, and black mist filled the air, obscuring the sun.
Numerous teleportation arrays appeared without warning deep within Shennongjia, and hordes of dark elves were teleported there.
In just five minutes, tens of thousands of people gathered.
Yar looked at his people with satisfaction, "Warriors of the Elven Empire, there are inexhaustible resources and supplies ahead. As long as you defeat the weak Dragon Kingdom people, they will be yours."
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
An atmosphere of chilling dread soared into the sky.
Several generals turned around abruptly, their eyes flashing with greed and malice. "Prepare!"
The Elven Empire soldiers turned in unison towards the Dragon Kingdom army, drew their elven longbows, and pulled them fully drawn.
A jet-black arrow was gradually solidifying.
"put!"
The energy arrow shot into the sky in a parabolic arc, heading towards the Dragon Kingdom's army camp.
"Unidentified flying objects detected, large number, requesting air defense coverage." - Frontline scout.
As soon as the anti-aircraft artillerymen received the order, a deluge of arrows began to fall.
Whoosh! Boom!
ah......
The front lines were instantly turned into a hornet's nest, and no more than a hundred people survived.
Meanwhile, a second wave of attacks followed.
Just when the survivors were in despair, a giant spatial wormhole appeared in the sky, and all the energy arrows entered the spatial channel.
Boom!
The first wormhole exploded, causing spatial turbulence.
It indirectly destroyed the third wave of energy arrows.
Li Tianyi stared at the exploding wormholes in the space, his heart bleeding. With a cold face, he ordered, "Mo Sanmei, no matter the cost, you must hold out until the protective shield is complete."
"receive!"
At this moment, Mo Xiao was not like a child at all; she was even more impatient than an adult, rapidly typing out commands.
A spatial passage, not yet fully constructed, appeared before the densest barrage of energy arrows.
It exploded after swallowing just a few thousand arrows.
This spatial turbulence is different from the past; it radiates in multiple directions, and any object that comes into contact with it is instantly torn to shreds.
Mo Xiao stared intently at the screen, her expression grave, clenching her small fists. "It has to succeed, it has to succeed."
The test results fluctuated, almost reaching their peak several times, but fortunately they all eventually returned to normal.
"Thank God!" Mo Xiao stood up, exhaled a long breath, and wiped the cold sweat from her forehead. "Fortunately, it didn't reach its peak, otherwise the spatial wormholes in the entire Shennongjia area would have cracked open, and the violent spatial turbulence would have covered the entire area. Absolutely no one would have survived."
at the same time.
The Dark Elves also sensed something amiss and dared not use their energy arrows.
Yell glanced mockingly at the direction of the Dragon Kingdom's army, his eyes narrowing slightly. "This is just the appetizer. We'll take our time! Wahahaha..."
