For the people of the Fire Nation, exploring unknown territories is not a strange thing.
Humans took a fancy to a piece of land, arrived there, occupied it, and then developed it. This was all natural. To them, the monsters wandering on the land were just beasts that hindered their expansion of the land. They only needed to be driven away, eliminated, and eradicated.
After all, in their eyes, humans are invincible! And those beasts, even the magical beasts, no matter how powerful they are, are just beasts! !
The fact seems to be true. Facing the army of the Fire Nation, those ugly monsters seemed to be scared out of their wits and turned to flee desperately. Only a few monsters dared to rush up and fight with these soldiers. After direct contact with these monsters, the soldiers of the Fire Nation found that these monsters did have very hard shells and were extremely ferocious and fearless of death. However, with the cooperation of the magician, they quickly wiped out this small group of monsters and then moved forward with high momentum.
"Prepare to set up camp! Send out scouts to find the monsters' nests. We must completely destroy them!"
After winning a victory, the soldiers from the Fire Nation seemed to be more confident. Soon, the commander in charge of dispatching issued an order, and the coalition forces chose a relatively safe high ground to set up camp. With the help of the spellcaster, it was not difficult to build a simple camp. After casting the spell of turning fossils into mud several times, a simple camp surrounded by a three-meter-high wall was quickly formed, and the soldiers began to patrol and guard. Obviously, they were ready to expand with this base as the center.
"Hmm...it seems this small-scale conflict is indeed useful."
Fang Zheng nodded silently while observing the army of the Fire Nation. He did not immediately let the Zerg kill these soldiers of the Fire Nation. The reason was simple. This was the first time Fang Zheng had used the Zerg to fight against the people of the Main World since he came to the Main World. He needed to compare the difference in combat power between the Zerg and the Main World. By fighting with these soldiers of the Fire Nation, Fang Zheng could just collect the information he needed.
And the facts have proved that Founder's choice was correct.
Most of the soldiers of the Fire Nation were at the level of regular troops. They wanted to deal with Fang Zheng's Zerglings, but they couldn't even cut open their shells. Only a small number of elite professionals who had elite strength and could release sword energy could break the defense of the Zerglings and cause damage to them.
In addition, the wizard's third-level spells such as Ice Storm and Fireball will also have a certain impact on the insect swarm. On the other hand, the effects of their fear and charm on the insect swarm are basically zero.
Considering that Fang Zheng's swarms all had three defenses and three attacks, it can be concluded that only elite-level professionals and spellcasters can cause damage to the swarms, and ordinary soldiers obviously do not have this ability. Because of the swarm network, mental spells are difficult to control the swarms, and illusions have little effect on them.
It seems that the Zerg should have no problem dealing with the Fire Nation's army. Of course, if they encounter a particularly powerful legendary professional, they will probably suffer heavy losses. However, the Fire Nation's patron saint was burned by Hecate, leaving no black ash...
However, now that you are here, don't even think about leaving!
Looking at the Fire Nation soldiers on the screen, Fang Zheng's lips curled up slightly, revealing a cold smile.
As a Paladin, and one personally appointed by the Temple, Fang Zheng certainly would not do anything that violated principles. Everything he did strictly complied with the process specifications - the swarm dispelled the chaos and reorganized the land of order, and according to the rules, they had the right to be the masters of this land.
Moreover, when the swarm first came into contact with the soldiers of the Fire Nation, they strictly followed Fang Zheng's instructions, warned and expelled the other side, and did not harm or kill them.
Under such circumstances, the Fire Nation still chose to invade the Zerg's territory and brutally killed innocent Zerg creatures. In the face of this situation, isn't it natural for our Zerg to fight back?
Self-defense is not against the law!
What? You said that killing people is not against the law? Excuse me, we Paladins protect order, not humans. Humans should be placed behind order. Moreover, there are many humanoid creatures like dwarves and elves in this world. We should treat every species equally and not have racial discrimination. Okay, I admit that the Zerg looks a little scary, but most of the Zerg are kind! You can't discriminate against Zerg just because they look ugly!
The purpose of the Paladin is justice, kindness, and fraternity... Alas, you racist, stand still and let me give you a buff!
Although Fang Zheng could completely solve these problems with just one wave of F2A, he did not intend to do so. After all, Fang Zheng's target was the entire Fire Nation, not a few small lords in the Fire Nation's territory. If you, the Fire Nation, dare to make things difficult for my Tiandao Palace, how could I let you go so easily?
Of course, as a Paladin, Fang Zheng couldn't take the initiative to attack the Fire Nation, but... you took the bait yourself, so you can't blame me. I didn't do any fishing enforcement. I was just a Paladin serving the Goddess of Order. I couldn't bear to see this land covered by chaos, so I sent the swarm to guard order, protect this planet and the creatures on it... Don't thank me, it's my duty to serve the people, and this is what I should do.
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng also made a decision. This time he would give the Fire Nation's army a "warning"... If they still refused to change their ways, then what awaited them would be the raging waves of the Zerg army.
As for the messenger who issued the "warning"...
Fang Zheng only thought about it for a moment and quickly made a decision.
The other party is a guest from afar, so let’s give them some unforgettable memories!
The soldiers of the Fire Nation did not know that someone had already decided their fate. As night fell, this undeveloped land was shrouded in darkness. On the stone wall temporarily built by magic, several soldiers were patrolling on duty.
"Tell me, what exactly were those monsters that attacked us during the day?"
A guard asked casually while patrolling on the city wall with a torch in hand. Upon hearing his companion's question, another guard shook his head.
"How should I know? It's probably some kind of magical beast. But it looks really scary, just like a devil from hell..."
As he spoke, the guard couldn't help but tremble. He still remembered that the terrifying "monster" looked very scary, with that scary color and weird appearance. He felt that he was afraid that he would not be able to sleep well in the next few days...
"I wonder if those monsters will come out at night..."
"Stop talking, I don't want to encounter that thing!!"
Hearing what his colleague said, the guard glared at him in dissatisfaction.
"Okay, hurry up and change shifts. The commander this time is a bit of a fuss-maker, and you don't want to be scolded by him for being late for the changeover!"
"That's true."
The other guard nodded as well, and the two of them walked to the sentry post at the end of the city wall.
"Hey, guys, let's switch shifts... Where are the people?"
Looking at the empty sentry post in front of them, the two guards were stunned. There should have been two people here before, why are there no people now? Could it be that because of the strong wind at night, they ran off to spend the day?
"Damn it, I knew those idiots from the Iron Shield Family were unreliable!"
Seeing that the person who was supposed to be on guard here was not there, one of the guards couldn't help but spit. Although the three families were acting together this time, they didn't have a good impression of each other. Especially the Iron Shield Family and the Sharp Sword Family, they were so close that they fought each other. The soldiers who were on guard here before were from the Iron Shield Family, so the two guards didn't think much about it, but instinctively thought that the bastards might have stood them up and ran out to play...
"Don't worry about them. When the time comes, I'll sue those bastards. Humph, they're lazy just after arriving in the undeveloped land. I really hope to see those bastards hung outside and frozen to death!"
As he spoke, the guard raised his torch and looked outside, but all he could see was pitch black.
"Really? This damn place is so annoying, and there are all these weird things... Hey, what on earth are those things on the ground?"
“…”
But this time, his companion did not answer him, so the guard withdrew his gaze and looked to his side.
"I said...eh?"
When he turned his head again, he was surprised to find that the other guard who was supposed to be by his side had disappeared!
Where are the people?
The guard widened his eyes and looked around. It was only then that he realized that not only his sentry post, but even another sentry post not far away was empty! At this moment, he suddenly felt a cold touch in his throat!
“Puff!”
The sharp tail blade pierced through the guard's throat, then wrapped around his neck, and then pulled suddenly. The next moment, the guard disappeared into the darkness along with his unuttered scream.
There was dead silence on the city wall, without a single sound.
After a while, dark shadows climbed up the city wall quietly and silently.
