Chapter 122: War with the Royal Family
Everyone cherishes life, and everyone thinks that there are tall people to hold up the sky if it falls.
The last charge into the Dark Beast Territory was ten days ago, and that siege was utterly awful.
Many legions were not putting in enough effort and would run away faster than anyone else when danger occurred, causing Daxia to suffer more damage than expected. They were forced to retreat and the siege failed.
The failure of that siege was also one of the main reasons why the European and African coalition forces were "defeated".
The Daxia Legion was damaged, and the troops sent out urgently returned to defend, at least to protect the integrity of the Daxia front.
The Dark Beast Lord seized the opportunity and suddenly sent out his troops, which led to the current outcome.
Now that Dong Chujian mentioned this matter again, everyone fell silent.
Wang Gang, the commander-in-chief of the Great Xia Xuanwu Army, had a bad temper. He slammed the table when talking about this matter: "We owe you this, don't we? Call me when you have something to say, and criticize me when you have nothing to say! Is it only us who are punished for losing the war? Do you think you can get away with it? I really hate it..."
"Old Wang." Commander Dong stopped Commander Wang from blurting out his words and continued, "Osham's witch army, the Great Bear's summoner army, and Tula's. I know you've trained a group of pilots. The trading volume of materials for the fifth-tier pilot sequence has been very high recently. You're building a mecha army, right? And what about the Hedge Country? Isn't it time for your magicians to take action?"
Every time Commander Dong spoke, the expressions of the members of the named countries would change slightly.
These legions were indeed professionals that they had secretly trained, but in the eyes of all of them, a single legion composed of such professionals was meaningless on a battlefield of such intensity.
The purpose of forming these single legions is to eliminate the "wandering royal family" in the fifth-level world and obtain more and better materials.
But now that it has been pointed out, if his legion is not suitable for such a battlefield, then when will it be suitable?
Does it have to be defeated to be appropriate?
Now is the time when humanity should unite and use all its strength.
Speaking of this, Commander Omura of the Mulberry Kingdom suddenly said, "If the number is insufficient, I'm reminded of a new talent that has recently emerged from your country. I believe everyone here has heard of that necromancer, right?"
Hearing the other party suddenly mention Wei Huan, all the commanders and generals of Daxia frowned.
Commander Chai even had an undisguised murderous intent in his eyes towards Commander Omura of Sangshu Country.
"Isn't it a bit too hasty for you to mention a newcomer from our country who just became a challenger this year?" Commander Chai said, emphasizing the word "newcomer" and looking deeply at Commander Omura. "Since when will the fate of Blue Planet be entrusted to a young man who is only 20 years old? Or is it that you, Omura, are still weaned from our country, relying on a certain country in the past, and now want to beg for food from our young people?"
Commander Chai said bluntly that because of the loss of supplies in the Qinglong Army’s warehouse, he and the Sangshu Kingdom had become complete enemies.
If it weren't for his bottom line pulling him back, he would have wanted to feed a mushroom to the island so that they could revisit their old place. If they weren't hurt, they wouldn't know where they were wrong.
Commander Omura said with a forced smile: "Since you mentioned the lack of people, the first person I can think of is a young hero. He can defeat thousands of troops by himself. He is very powerful.
A few days ago, I returned to Blue Star to handle important matters. I accidentally glanced at the standings and found that the top 100 players who had been stable for three or four years had changed.
With more than 600,000 points, I don’t know where else there are so many dark beasts to kill except on the battlefield.
This strength is truly awe-inspiring. Killing 60,000? Or 600,000 Dark Beasts? If it were my fellow Blue Star people, I would be furious and mad.
Of course, if it were us, I would be happy. That’s why such a talented person would be mentioned at the meeting.”
"Who? Killed 600,000 Dark Beasts?"
"Impossible. I've heard of this necromancer. Although he's quite powerful, he's still a newcomer. He only became a challenger this year. How could he possibly kill 600,000 dark beasts?"
"600,000 points, not 600,000 Dark Beasts."
"But even in a random challenge, killing 60,000 dark beasts has never happened before."
"So, Commander Omura wants to remind us that the young man from Daxia angered the Dark Beast, which is why he launched that attack?"
When the generals of Daxia heard this, they were so angry that they stood up.
Commander Xuanwu Wang was about to jump onto the table, angrily shouting, "Don't be sarcastic with me, what are you talking about! In this day and age, killing the Dark Beast is still a big deal? The reason is so far-fetched, are you guys just thinking of shirking responsibility?"
Then he glared at Commander Omura: "You ruined our genius, believe it or not, I will kill you right here!"
Commander Omura naturally deliberately provoked the Daxia generals. Seeing that someone had taken the bait, he immediately looked aggrieved and went to find "Daddy Osam" as if he wanted to complain.
"Hahaha!" Commander Dong laughed at this moment. His laughter was abrupt, and his eyes were filled with relief. "Good, good boy, good kill! We've avenged the millions of our compatriots who were killed! Sixty thousand, sixty thousand! This is going to wipe out this generation of Dark Beasts!"
After he finished speaking, he looked at everyone with a deep gaze: "Have your young people ever been stopped during the third-level highway assessment? How many died? We in Daxia have lost more than 100,000 young people in recent years. It's heartbreaking."
Then Commander Dong's face turned cold: "Wei Huan, our Great Xia's genius, my benefactor, if anyone plots against him again, even if he hides underground, anyone who dares to touch him will be my enemy!"
After these words were spoken, Admiral Meyer, who was about to speak, looked away again.
Commander Omura's face froze and he looked embarrassed.
Commander Chai also said, "Commander Dong said what I was thinking. Don't always envy the excellence of other countries. Are you a dog? Always thinking about what's in other people's bowls. Why not think about why the meal your master gave you doesn't taste good? Reflect on whether you haven't licked it enough."
This insult was very direct, and the generals from other countries smiled meaningfully when they heard it.
Commander Omura was insulted, but "Big Daddy" not only did not help him, but also gave him a look to tell him to shut up. He felt wronged, but he dared not disobey.
Finally, Commander Dong took over the topic and said, "Young people have their own battlefields, and we cannot fall behind. We should excel in our respective fields and not lose to the young people."
As soon as the stairs came down, everyone nodded.
It is indeed petty and short-sighted to vent your anger on a young man who killed 60,000 dark beasts.
They stand in this position, shouldering the rise and fall of the human race. Even if the madness of the dark beasts may be a little affected by that young man, as seniors, shouldn't they withstand all the pressure at this time?
Commander Dong is right.
Since when would killing a dark beast be condemned? Wouldn't that mean their very existence would be ridiculed?
Everyone changed the subject and continued talking about business.
And perhaps it was Wei Huan’s achievements on another battlefield that stimulated these generals, but the subsequent discussions finally went smoothly.
They are selfish, but not all for power. They just want to retain more strength and protect the people behind them when necessary, so they appear to be petty.
But now is the time to stand together through thick and thin. If we only focus on preserving ourselves, no one will survive if the ship capsizes!
The mention of Wei Huan was originally intended to get all the legions to unite and put pressure on Daxia, but Commander Omura never expected that everyone would unite instead.
For a moment, he was worried and cursed General Nagasaki who reported the news in his heart. He wanted to tear him apart when he got back!
But Commander Omura did not know that Chief of Staff Nagasaki, who stayed outside to preside over the work, was also having a hard time.
Commander Mu of the Qinglong Army had traced the case back to him. If he had not ordered the killing of the key figure Situ Zhengtao in time, he would have been almost implicated this time.
But the embarrassing thing now is that the equipment sent back has been targeted by several special agents of Daxia, and cannot be traded. But Osam is anxious for it, which makes him so anxious that he has been burning the candle at both ends and has not slept well for several days.
"The transaction is suspended. We must not let Daxia obtain any concrete evidence. Order everyone to halt their actions and remain on standby."
After General Nagasaki hung up the phone, he saw Ishi Hengchuanjing's phone number in the phone column and became furious for a moment.
This idiot! He can't even do the smallest thing! He got himself into trouble!
The Blue Star, the ancient battlefield, and the random battlefield are subtly entangled together because of the difficult-to-untangle thread.
Among these, the most important thing is Wei Huan's existence, which broke the balance between the various forces on Blue Star, and even between the humans on Blue Star and the dark beast plane.
Amidst the storm, various undercurrents are surging.
But at this time, Wei Huan didn't know.
He has been in the random world for more than a month.
After being reborn and becoming a challenger, Wei Huan traveled through the worlds of Level 1, 2, and 3 highways. This was the first time that he stayed in one world for so long.
His target was the guy who sounded particularly "fragrant" in Xu Qingqiang's words, and he was a very powerful guy among the dark beasts.
In addition, there is the ever-approaching mission target. No one would be tempted by the diamond treasure chest that is within reach.
In order to kill more dark beasts, Wei Huan even chose to take a detour, and finally killed more than 60,000 dark beasts, leaving only a small half of the goal to be achieved.
But no matter how long this road is, it always has an end.
On that day, as they were hurrying along as usual, Xu Qingqiang suddenly jumped out and said, "I feel like it's getting closer. It's not far ahead."
At that moment, Wei Huan actually felt a sense of loss.
Even Xu Qingqiang was saying, "How about we take a detour? What if we kill that guy and the world closes? Just to be on the safe side, let's get the diamond treasure chest first."
Wei Huan, who also longed for the diamond treasure chest, shook his head.
"Don't put the cart before the horse. Our purpose in staying here is to kill the Dark Beasts and to use this to influence the situation on the Ancient Battlefield.
A lord this powerful must have a high bloodline, at least that's what I hope."
Xu Qingqiang wanted to say, it might not be such an important dark beast, maybe it was just a thought-provoking beast?
They all hoped that it was a dark beast king, but at this time, Xu Qingqiang suddenly didn't trust his nose.
I always feel that the guy is not that great, but I brought everyone so far. What if he is not as good as I imagined?
Mu Zhong seemed to see through Xu Qingqiang's heart and said, "No, even if we kill the strongest dark beast, this world will still exist, but the ancient battlefield is about to close, so we must do something.
You're here now, right?"
Xu Qingqiang nodded: "Yes, since we are here, let's kill him first!"
This time, Xu Qingqiang raised his hand and pointed in a precise direction: "That's it. We will be there in less than a day. Its fragrance is already very weak. It will not be our opponent.
Let's finish this quickly, I still need to get the diamond treasure chest!"
"good!!"
…
All intelligent life has the emotion of fear.
The smarter the life, the more accurately it can judge crises and make choices and avoid them earlier.
"Shi" is a royal dark beast.
All royal dark beasts are very smart.
Their intelligence surpasses that of all other dark beasts, and they can control the life and death of all low-level dark beasts with a single thought.
It was born to be a king, and it should be fearless. Even if the world of challenge comes, for it, it is just a matter of gaining the throne.
It is still high and mighty, and the lord challenge is just an interesting little game in its noble life.
However, the premise of the "game" is that its life is not threatened.
The third-level lord assessment world has become dangerous because of the appearance of that group of humans.
A month ago, the system channel had gone crazy, filled with cries for help and descriptions of that group of humans... The terrifying humans who controlled the corpses of the dark beasts were demons from the filthy land. They awakened sleeping souls and flooded cities with dead bones. All the dead Shuroman blood beasts opened their eyes, and even the Demon Eye Lord and the dog-headed man were at his disposal.
It seems that this group of humans is like the king of the dark beasts and has the ability to dominate the dark beast tribe.
Faced with the low-level dark beast's call for help, "Shi" did not care at first. It had been managing its territory for some time, and it would not be long before it could leave this world and go to a higher-level world.
As the youngest descendant of the royal family, it was born to enjoy life in extreme luxury. It lacked nothing. If it weren't for the damn assessment that even the royal family couldn't cheat, it would have caught up with its fathers and gone to the battlefield to kill.
Now it has to follow the rules of the challenge world and enter the assessment world with its fourth-level territory. According to the system's requirements, it has to collect supplies, recruit heroes, and build buildings with various functions day by day.
Of course, most of the tasks in the third-level world have been completed when it enters, such as the free task of building a third-level barracks.
It was not until it got stuck at the stage of building a "miracle" that it slowed down a little.
"Miracle Buildings" are something that only the royal family can build, and it is their responsibility to complete.
It is even the main reason why it appears in this assessment.
"Miracle Buildings" can only be obtained through tasks during the assessment period and require massive resources to build.
"Hajime" was busy with this matter most of the time he was in the challenging world.
As long as the "miracle building" is built, it can complete the challenge and leave at any time.
So, when faced with the first high-level dark beast, a two-headed hidden demon asking for help, "Shi" didn't care.
They are just a few humans. Even if they are quite powerful, they can probably barely kill the two-headed hidden demon, right?
It's so far away that it's impossible to get over there, and if you come over you will be killed by it.
It was not until a thought-monster fell that "Shi" finally took these humans seriously.
The characteristic of "Thought Beast" is that it can transform what it hears and sees into information in its body and transmit it to other Thought Beasts.
When there are Thought Beasts nearby, the Dark Beasts will be forcibly infused with memories, just like awakening their bloodline inheritance, and will directly appear in their inherited memories.
After ten thousand years of evolution, the dark beasts have solidified their forms and classes, and it has been a long time since they have awakened their inherited memories.
However, in the seven years since the advent of the Challenge World, it seems that new inherited memories appear every day. This frequent "information update" has overwhelmed many low-level dark beasts, and they have finally become pure wild beasts with no intelligence.
But it must be admitted that the existence of the Thought Beast prevents the Dark Beast from being at a disadvantage due to the lack of the so-called "Internet" and "computers" of humans.
They are always synchronized with the latest news.
At least in the same world.
The first thought-monster that fell sent out everything it saw and heard in its last moment before death. Then "Shi" obtained more detailed memories from this group of humans, as if they were engraved in their bones and blood.
...They were a group of humans stepping on the bones of underground beasts.
The man standing in the front was wearing a black robe and a crown of thorns on his head. Looking from a distance, one could feel his evil.
The undead all over the mountains were under his command. He was a demon awakened from the grave, commanding the skeletons of the dark beasts to devour the city walls.
Amidst the vast white waves, one could see a human without legs, their emerald earrings gleaming brightly. There were also ferocious, beast-like monsters making snarling noises. There were also human women wielding bows and arrows, and two identical human men wielding magic staffs...
The terrifying attack cruelly fell on each dark beast, tearing it apart and killing it, and then resurrecting it to join the ranks of attacking its own kind.
"Necromancer" is the new name given by the dark beasts to the black-robed human.
He also has another name, called "Dark Beast Nemesis".
How ridiculous! Dark Beast Nemesis? Does that mean you can slaughter the entire Dark Beast clan without restraint?
I challenge the world to give such a hostile name to a human being.
"Shi" felt like tearing him to pieces just by hearing his title.
Why?! What qualifications did he have?! A mere human had killed so many of their own kind.
Each of its dark beasts is a royal treasure, so it is natural for it to care about and protect its property.
So, "Shi" gave an order.
An order to kill these humans.
On the road they are on, all high-level dark beasts must resist with all their might, and low-level dark beasts must respond to the call to serve the king.
Kill them!
Use their blood to mock the ridiculous title of "Dark Beast Nemesis"!
At first, after "Shi" gave the order, he didn't take it too seriously.
It has its own mission. As the royal family of the dark beasts, it must build its own miracle. If it can complete a rare miracle, it will gain a larger territory in the dark beast plane, more people, and enjoy a better life.
Even if you are born a king, you must work hard for your "kingly life"~
But soon, "Shi" had to pay more attention, even to the point where he was now focusing most of his attention on this group of humans.
They were coming straight towards him, with no way to avoid or retreat.
Along the way, they overthrew dozens of territories of high-level dark beasts, including some powerful territories run by the Sisi Beasts.
The information about this group of humans was constantly being updated, and in its mind, it was constantly outlining increasingly clearer and more hideous lines.
It cannot help but compare the gap in combat effectiveness between the two sides, and think about the preparations and sacrifices it needs to make during the battle.
It was also impossible to restrain itself from calling for the king's support and summoning more dark beasts to protect it.
It is the true royal family of dark beasts. When its voice rang out, countless dark beast lords, even those at the edge of the world, rushed over.
A large number of dark beasts brought a lot of resources, and soon it completed a "miracle building".
Its mission of challenging the world has been completed, and it can leave this world at any time.
But looking at the "Dark Beast King Building" in front of it with its sharp fangs bared and roaring ferociously, a strong desire to fight suddenly arose in its heart.
【War Miracle】
The territory where the miracle is located can increase war courage and obtain a 30% improvement in all attributes.
The force where the miracle is located can increase the courage in war and obtain a 3% improvement in all attributes.
Oh my God!
It actually became a war miracle!
This is the third war miracle of the Dark Beast Clan so far!
The first two war miracles were built by the Dark Beast King in the fourth-level world, and the second was built by the brave and unrivaled Grand Prince in the fourth-level world.
The two kings who supported the entire Dark Beast Plane built a war miracle that was only built in the fourth-level world, but they built it in the third-level world.
Does this... mean that I have a greater talent for war?
Can I become a member of the Dark Beast royal family as powerful as the Dark Beast King and the Great Prince?
The sudden expansion of ambition drove away the few thoughts of retreat in Shi's heart, making him become infinitely brave.
From this day on, it has been preparing for a great war.
It has made up its mind to use these humans as sacrifices and smear their blood on its way to becoming king.
Just think about it, when the news of it killing the "Dark Beast Nemesis" and possessing the "War Miracle" spread, how much attention would it get?
While Wei Huan was calculating how to use this dark beast king to influence the ancient battlefield, the dark beast king named "Shi" was also calculating how to use Wei Huan's title to gain greater fame.
Therefore, the two sides of this "two-way race" finally met at noon that day...
This territory is actually not that big.
As a third-level assessment world, and given that both sides of the war have just opened the "door to the fifth-level world", this battlefield can only accommodate fourth-level territories at most.
The only difference is that some fourth-level territories can barely be promoted, while some fourth-level territories have reached their limit and have a large number of fifth-level buildings. They are only one step away from the entire territory reaching the fifth level.
This can be confirmed by the architectural forms inside and outside the territory.
This isn't a large territory, but it has abundant supplies. It has been upgraded to the limit of this stage, and even the buildings at the supply collection points have been upgraded to level five.
The Lord of the Demon Eye had already risen into the air and landed above the territory, and Wei Huan's vision also reached there.
Yes, the territory is not big.
All the territories of high-ranking lords I've seen along the way are the same size as this one.
But it is different everywhere.
In the royal city obscured by the fog of war, one can occasionally see from the spire of a certain building that it is already a level five building.
Especially the towering stone statue located in the upper left corner of the city. Even though only a small part of it was exposed, Wei Huan could still confirm at a glance that this was a "miracle building."
"Miracle Building" is not a feature unique to the Dark Beast King Family.
But in fact, only the Dark Beast King has the ability to create it.
This is a special building that cannot be obtained by collecting supplies from one's own territory alone.
It is destined that the birth of every "miracle building" is achieved by exploiting the resources of the surrounding dark beast lords.
The massive amount of supplies is not just talk.
"Miracle Building" is also really very useful.
The territory cannot be moved, and facing the flexible chariots of humans, it can only passively take the beating.
Miracles rose from the ground one after another, some increasing defense, some increasing attack, some increasing wisdom, and some increasing the speed of territory technology research and development, the speed of troop deployment, production efficiency, and so on. Finally, the Dark Beast Territory was turned into an offensive and defensible "turtle shell". Even if it stood right in front of us, it would be difficult to break through even with all the power of mankind.
Wei Huan's gaze remained on the miraculous building for a long time.
On the one hand, he felt relieved, because the territory that owned the miracle building must belong to the royal family, which was in line with his goal.
But on the other hand, he would think, after all, this is a territory with miracles, the territory where the royal family lives, can he really break into it?
In a short period of time, Wei Huan recalled a lot of memories about the Dark Beast King Family in his mind, and then gradually calmed down.
No problem. Both sides have reservations. Xu Qingqiang's talent can only give a rough assessment, but compared to the information he concealed, he knows the killer moves of the Dark Beast King Family.
Noon is a good time.
The sun is shining brightly and the vision is clear. The overly glaring light will have an impact on the dark beast clan. God is on their side.
Now is a good time to start a war.
Six portals were lined up on both sides behind Wei Huan, and the undead army poured out like water.
