Chapter 123 Legion Confrontation Outside the City
The ghost crow croaked, holding the Hellfire Bomb in its mouth, circling upward with a momentum like a hurricane. Finally, it transformed into a huge black cloud, crushing down.
Leading the group was a beautiful ghost crow with its hair clearly visible. The green flames in its eyes were blazing and lively. It led countless ghost crows to circle in the sky for several rounds, and finally hovered in mid-air.
In the shadow of dark clouds, the zombie Violent Bear followed closely behind and walked out of the portal.
As they walked, their rotten hair oozed foul-smelling liquid, and even though their eyeballs had dried up and fallen off in their eye sockets, it did not affect their direction of movement.
They made a "roar-roar-roar" sound, and the broken vocal cords overlapped together, sounding as sharp as a leak of air.
At the front of the violent bears, there was a huge violent bear with a shoulder height of four meters, without any blessings.
When it stands up, it can reach a height of more than ten meters.
You can imagine how terrifying its size would be if it were blessed!
This is exactly the elite violent bear. Unlike the anus-digging brother, this violent bear does not need more elites from the tribe to improve its own grade.
From the day it was recruited, it seemed to be feeding on Wei Huan's fire of death, growing every day. More than a month passed unknowingly. When Wei Huan saw it again one day, it actually had a hero panel.
The elite panel is 1~2 times that of the same race.
The hero panel is 3 to 5 times that of the same type.
The zombie violent bear has attributes three times more than its peers, and now his endurance has reached 1,800 points.
This attribute makes him the most resistant one in Wei Huan's team, except for himself and Xu Qingqiang.
It naturally takes on the role of a powerful "tank" in siege warfare, is not afraid of death, and can be reborn countless times. Such a "meat tank" is simply the enemy's nightmare.
It walked at the front of the team, shaking its head and looking majestic.
“Roar, roar, roar!”
Following Wei Huan's instructions, he rushed to the front of the battle formation without hesitation and rushed towards the territory.
This is just the edge of the territory.
The fourth-level territory will take the city wall as the center, and demarcate an area within a radius of 30 kilometers into its own area, exploiting all the resources in the area.
There happened to be a forest farm right in front of the undead army's charge.
The gathering units in the forest farm obviously had not received any notice to return to defend, and the lord had not built any watchtowers or walls for them. When the battle came, they could only hide in the logging huts trembling, without any ability to resist.
They are like a pile of garbage, thrown here.
The horde of undead that rushed through the forest was huge in size. The zombie bear was the size of four humans and comparable to a mini van.
The rumbling sound echoed on the earth, and the trees along the way were broken by the impact. Even the tree trunks as thick as a human body could not withstand the impact of the huge body of the violent bear, and they were destroyed and turned into ruins along the way.
Despair appeared in the trembling lumberjack's eyes. Fortunately, the undead army was not interested in those gathering units.
They rushed forward with a shaking momentum, and with such huge bodies, they circumvented the logging huts with incredible agility, just like river water avoiding huge rocks in the river, gathering at the back and rushing towards the distance again.
Is it because we are about to go to war and we can’t take care of these civilian units?
Obviously not.
Before the lumberjacks could breathe a sigh of relief, a new wave of black appeared again.
They were a group of Shuromas with strong bodies, three heads and six arms, and human heads and the bodies of horses.
Even in the world of dark beasts, the Shuromas are a fighting race born for battle. Every inch of their bodies, even the tips of their nails, exist to kill their targets.
They are crazy, bloodthirsty, cruel and bloodthirsty. All their nutrition seems to be poured into their muscles, without enough time to grow their brains. Therefore, they are the best weapons for high-level dark beasts. Wherever their arms point, the black iron torrent will swallow them up.
The Shuroma pounced directly at the logging hut, its four legs hanging on the roof like the claws of a beast, while its six upper arms scratched frantically. With its terrifying attack speed and damage, the three Shuroma destroyed the logging hut in just half a minute.
In the collapsed logging cabin, the lumberjacks fled frantically.
Xiu Luoma was like an emotionless life harvester, chasing and slaying one by one with his claws, and in less than two minutes, all the people at this resource point were killed.
With the death of the last lumberjack, the Dark Beast Lord also lost sight of this place.
This is exactly Wei Huan's purpose.
He could choose not to kill these lumberjacks who had no fighting ability, but he could not give the Dark Beast Lord vision.
Moreover, once the Dark Beast Lord is given vision, it can transform the "lumberjacks" into "construction workers" and build barracks and other buildings in the rear, making them vulnerable to attacks from both sides.
He won't leave this trouble for himself.
After eliminating this vision, the undead army pressed forward again.
As we went forward, all the resources along the way were exhausted, and the land became barren, with only sparse weeds struggling to survive under our feet.
And vaguely, you can see the city that seems to be built in the sky.
That's a mountain.
It is a rare hill on the hilly area map that can be called a mountain.
This dark beast lord made good use of the terrain, placing the lord core on the top of the mountain and building this territory that was easy to defend and difficult to attack.
At this moment, the city gate facing their direction opened, and a large number of combat troops were walking out of the city gate and forming battle formations.
There is the "Tank Rhino Phalanx" known as the most cost-effective, the "Ganna Snake Phalanx" known as the killing soldiers, and even a "Heavy Cavalry Phalanx" that rides on tall black horses with humans riding on top.
The three major phalanxes revealed the difference of this Dark Beast Lord.
"These are all types of troops used in foreign wars, and they are very expensive," said cousin Mu.
Mu nodded: "But if the lord in the city is the Dark Beast King, then it makes sense. The royal lord can obtain all the resources of the Dark Beasts with a single order, which is enough to recruit any high-value troops.
And I really like to take the initiative.”
Yes, that’s right, these three types of troops are all used for charging and killing in external battles.
Unlike other dark beasts, the royal family often chooses to send troops out of the city to fight and kill the opponent outside the city.
This is completely different from the fighting style of other lords who try to use watchtowers to attack and city walls to defend.
This has been confirmed during the seven-year war between humans and dark beasts.
And it is written into the textbooks of Challenger University.
So when these troops appeared, it not only proved once again that this territory was indeed the "valuable" territory they had been looking for.
But at the same time, it must be a "hard bone" that cannot be chewed without paying a price.
Mu Zhong looked at Wei Huan and raised his hand to touch the emerald green earrings.
Wei Huan nodded: "I want all the blessings."
Facing the Dark Beast King Clan, even if he was 100% sure, he still wanted a 200% chance of winning.
Challenging the world is not a game, defeat means death.
He wants to be the one who survives, he wants to win, so when facing a strong enemy, he must give it his all from the beginning!
“Roar, roar, roar!!”
“Ho ho ho!!”
“Quack, quack, quack!!”
The roars of the undead army, intertwined with the equally loud roars from the opposite side, almost shook the clouds in the sky apart.
A massive positional battle, the first time in history that it has appeared in the challenge world of random territories.
After all, in the past, no profession had ever had so many summons.
Wei Huan, who already had a very strong summoning ability, not only accumulated a terrifying amount of summons after staying in this world for a month, but also unlocked some of the power that had been sealed in the past.
Just now, the force he brought out was three to five times the number of the opposing army.
More than four thousand zombies, violent bears and Shuroma, combined together to become the black killing sword on the battlefield.
As the billowing smoke colliding, black clouds from the sky also pressed down, and the incomprehensible screams of the undead continued to echo in the heads of these rhinos and heavy cavalry.
Xiu Rome's claws were about to cut off the head of a heavy cavalryman.
But in the next second!
The dazed eyes that were "forcibly controlled" suddenly bulged out with thick bloodshot, and the boiling murderous intent surged out like a tangible black mist.
His entire temperament suddenly changed and became violent.
The body that was "hardly controlled" easily broke free from the control of the Ghost Crow, and the spear chopped down in the air, colliding with Shuroma's claws.
"clang!"
Amidst the clash of swords and spears, the fierce fighting officially began.
Liu Chengzhi, who saw this scene from afar, was shocked and muttered to himself: "Hey, Sister Crow and the others' hard control didn't work?"
Yes, in past wars, the presence of ghost crows made combat much easier.
Even a fourth-tier hero unit would lose consciousness for a moment when faced with the Ghost Crow's Soul Scream, which would lead to a tilt in the battle situation.
Liu Chengzhi has become accustomed to seeing [Ghost Crow Control] + [Xiuluma Massacre], such a templated combat method, and even thought that this is how to fight the Dark Beast Lord.
But obviously, this fight is different.
If Liu Chengzhi could calm down and think, he would remember that there is more than one thought-provoking beast in this territory now.
When summoned by the King of Dark Beasts, even the royal family's Thought Beasts have to serve him faithfully.
Suppressed by their bloodline, they gathered together and became invisible weapons that ordinary people could not understand.
The thought-sending beast that can transmit information and cast curses is basically a mental attack in the hands of the Dark Beast King.
When these thought-monsters gather together, they can attack their opponents mentally, and of course they can also stimulate their own units and break free from the mental control of the ghost crows.
Liu Chengzhi didn’t understand because he was a poor student.
Wei Huan, Mu Zhong and others had already learned a lot of war knowledge about the Dark Beast King at Challenger University.
After all, humans know much more about the King of Dark Beasts than the Thought Beasts that always disappear on the battlefield.
One of them is that the Dark Beast King has mental attacks and can also remove mental attacks.
However, this knowledge will be overturned in two years.
It was then that everyone realized that the one who possessed this attack was not the Dark Beast King, but the eight-star Thought Beast.
It is true that the Silent Beasts only obey the orders of the Dark Beast King, and their means of attack are also the Dark Beast King's means of attack.
Wei Huan was not surprised that the Ghost Crow's hard control was lifted.
He even knew from the beginning that this trick would not work. The reason he used it was just to block the soul attack that the Dark Beast King used on them.
Every attack and defense is a calculation.
Wei Huan couldn't let himself fall into a disadvantage, so he had to keep planning ahead.
The ghost crows continued to fly over the heads of the combat troops, making wild and shrill "quack quack" sounds.
The parasitic beasts could only follow behind and release the control one by one. This was an open conspiracy. The parasitic beasts must follow his war rhythm, otherwise it would be difficult to remove the mental attacks on them.
The war in the open space ahead was also very fierce.
Tank rhinos are certainly not animals from the Blue Planet. They come from a certain beast civilization. They are very strong and each one has more than 1,200 points of endurance.
This value is equivalent to the endurance value of the "city wall" of a third-level territory.
But here, there are more than 200 tank rhinos charging into the battlefield.
Shuroma's claws cannot kill them easily, but the horn on their noses and their huge strength can lift up the zombie bears and throw them away, causing considerable damage.
If we only talk about tank troops, the zombie bears on Wei Huan's side are indeed not strong enough.
Of course, if we don't count the fact that they can be resurrected at any time and return to the battlefield, the Undead Army is at a great disadvantage in 1V1 most of the time.
Three or four zombie bears died, and finally the violent tank rhino whimpered and fell in a pool of blood. It would disappear without a drop of blood left as soon as the war was over.
But the dead zombie bear came out of the portal and returned to the battlefield.
Also coming out were some Skeleton Violent Bears and Skeleton Hidden Cats.
These units are dispensable to Wei Huan now, but they are still combat units. In such a melee, if he finds an opportunity, he can make a move.
A hidden cat lurks in the corner, looking for an opportunity.
Until a heavy cavalry unit came galloping and stopped not far in front of it. It watched as the heavy cavalry unit waved the iron spear in its hand and pierced Xu Roma's heart with one shot.
If this stabs a living person, the heart will be broken and the person will die.
But there is no heart to repair Rome.
As a type of zombie, its internal organs have long since rotted away, and the only way to kill it is to cut off its three heads.
So, the spear that passed through his chest was tightly grasped by Shuroma's arm the next second, and at the same time several other arms grabbed him.
At this moment, the heavy cavalryman felt a chill on the back of his neck, and the next second, sharp nails penetrated into the gaps in the armor, cutting through the head, shoulders, and the most vulnerable neck.
“Puff!”
Xiu Rome's attack tore the heavy cavalry's armor, but the hidden cat who was waiting for the opportunity took the "first blood".
The heavy cavalry, whose leaders were separated, slipped off their horses and fell heavily to the ground, motionless.
The frightened warhorse ran away with a "thump thump" sound.
When he looked back again, the skeleton cat had disappeared. Shuroma, with a big hole in his heart, roared again and ran to the next battlefield with full of fighting spirit.
But if we talk about the most boring combat unit in this positional battle, it must be the "Jana Snake People" crawling underground.
They look very ugly. The cobra has a flat head and two front claws, with only a long tail behind it. It likes to walk on the ground, but can also stand up by relying on its tail.
This is a very vicious type of soldier with extremely high attack power and toxicity. It doesn't cost much to recruit, so there are always a lot of them when they appear.
The attack power of a Janna snakeman alone is almost as great as that of a dark beast noble like the two-headed hidden demon.
So far, any human being who is caught by it will lose half his life.
At the same time, the most annoying thing about them is that they will burrow into the ground and launch a sneak attack.
These Gana snakemen had high attack power but low defense. Many of them died directly on the battlefield, but some of them had been lurking in the mud since some time ago and were slowly moving towards the direction of Wei Huan and others.
They thought they were well hidden, but before they could get far, something suddenly grabbed their bodies.
Then, a huge pain came from the place where I was hugged tightly.
They rolled out from the ground uncontrollably, making a hissing sound.
One, two, three... More and more Jana snakemen emerged from the mud, reaching a hundred.
The ones that hugged them and bit them were actually facehuggers.
If the Dark Beast Lord could see the rear of the battlefield, he would see that huge deep pits had appeared under the bellies of those female Earth Beasts that did not participate in the battle.
If the Dark Beast Lord had been more vigilant, he would have discovered that the facehuggers, which used to be more numerous and annoying than flies, were not seen today, so the battlefield seemed particularly clean.
This was because these face huggers had already, under Wei Huan's orders, either spread out or lurked deep underground, protecting all of them.
Don't underestimate the king-level dark beast lord.
As the highest leaders of the Dark Beast Tribe, they have many means at their disposal.
However, in this back-and-forth battle, Wei Huan was indeed ahead of the Dark Beast Lord.
All the tactics exposed so far have been blocked and buried by Wei Huan.
When the last sneak attack failed, the Jana snakeman rolling on the ground was quickly eliminated by the long-range attacks of the facehugger, Ding Qi, the twins and others.
The positional battle outside the territory's city walls was completely over.
The last tank rhino was torn to pieces with a wail, and the brutal war came to an end.
The victorious undead army marched towards the territory again with undiminished momentum and numbers.
Pressing forward step by step, it was extremely aggressive.
At this moment, a sense of crisis that makes people's hair stand on end arises.
Without waiting to confirm what it was, Wei Huan gave the order first.
At his command, more than 500 female ground beasts around him began to develop green mesh patterns on their backs, which then quickly formed a net on their body surface.
Just as I finished, I saw terrifying white smoke shooting up from the territory ahead.
A quick glance revealed that there were at least a hundred of them.
What's this?
Anyone on Blue Star will be familiar with it.
This is the trajectory of the missile after it takes off!!
One missile after another from human civilization was launched into the sky, and then flew towards the area where Wei Huan and the undead army were located like sky battle axes.
Before the sound reached my ears, I could hear more of the bullet approaching.
The first one fell from the sky and exploded in the middle of the undead army that was attacking the city wall.
The missile's damage is high, but not excessively high given the current evolution of the bloodline.
A missile exploded in the middle of the undead, taking away one-tenth of their health.
This damage is still astonishing. You should know that these undead have not only been upgraded to the third level, but also received Mu Zhong's endurance blessing.
"Boom! Boom!"
Missiles swept the ground, and there was a cloud of smoke.
More missiles flew towards the location where Wei Huan and others were and fell straight down.
If this exploded in the middle of a crowd, given the current level of evolution, most people would not be able to withstand a few hits and would be dead.
At this moment, the scene of missiles pressing down was still very terrifying.
But, it doesn't seem that I'm particularly scared.
Liu Chengzhi looked at the missile, then quickly scanned the surroundings and saw a female ground beast with green light coming out of its back shell.
The green net, ready to go, bounced into the sky with a "swish".
The green net was like a big mouth, swallowing the missile in one gulp while also blocking the power of the explosion.
The sound of "boom boom" kept ringing above his head. Liu Chengzhi covered his ears and shrunk his shoulders to endure it for a few seconds, and found that he was really unharmed.
He is worthy of being the boss, except that he is a little noisy.
"Boom! Boom!"
Wait a minute! Didn't the ones above us already explode? Why are there still some?
Liu Chengzhi looked up and found that the explosion came from farther away.
In the end, the ghost crow still carried the Nether Fire and took on the most important task in every siege.
"Bomber Mission".
And the timing was precisely calculated, as if he had been waiting for this moment.
With the launch of the enemy's missiles, the protective shield was briefly opened and the sky above the city lost its protection.
At Wei Huan's command, the ghost crow, ready to go, held the Nether Fire in its beak and flew over the territory in an instant. In the few seconds it had, it dropped a bunch of green and fragile flames that looked like they would be extinguished by the wind.
The green flame passed through the territory without encountering any hindrance and landed inside the territory.
“Boom!”
A series of explosions ignited the flames of war, and at the same time, several kill notifications of Dark Beast Lords popped up in front of everyone's eyes.
"This territory is so fertile." Xu Qingqiang was drooling.
A scarlet tongue licked the corner of his mouth, and sharp teeth had already jutted out from his gaping maw. Jagged demonic patterns twisted across his face, and his unusually long limbs bent to the ground, his posture demonic, yet his eyes were surprisingly lucid.
He said to Wei Huan beside him, "If we throw two fire bombs in there, we can kill more than ten Dark Beast Lords. Aren't all the farmers in this territory Dark Beast Lords?"
Wei Huan thought it was very possible. This was a good opportunity to complete the task.
Unfortunately, after the last missile was launched, the protective shield regained its function and covered the sky over the territory again.
A lot of nether fire that didn't have time to fall was blocked by the protective shield. The bombarded protective shield flashed with light and consumed a lot of energy.
But at the same time, arcs of electric current slashed at the ghost crow's body.
The ghost crows, which were completely immune to physical attacks, were unable to avoid the attacks of electric current and died in large numbers amidst the sound of "crackling".
In a top-level fourth-level territory, except for the lord's hall, I'm afraid all the buildings are level five, right?
The natural protective shield also became level five, from a simple defense to a strong offensive power.
The ghost crows that flew over the territory were all destroyed in the blink of an eye, but at the same time, the opposing lord did not seem to dare to launch missiles recklessly anymore.
This round of battle can be considered a draw.
Without follow-up fire support, the undead army continued to charge towards the territory.
On the city wall, three human archmage hero units walked out. They waved their staffs and launched large-scale magic attacks.
Hundreds of dog-headed men opened their mouths on the city wall and spit out huge round stones that rolled down.
And the moment when the Lord of the Demon Eyes flew up, there were thousands of eyeballs flying densely on the city wall, which made Wei Huan's scalp tingle.
As expected of a king-level dark beast, there were too many dark beast lords who responded to the call.
There were also hundreds of two-headed hidden demons that flew into the air and pounced on the undead army. They shuttled through the skeletons and zombies like a harvesting sickle, sending them back to the tomb one by one.
For a moment, Wei Huan was even a little unable to summon him.
It is conceivable how many intermediate or low-level dark beast lords there are in this city?
A tough nut to crack.
But the fragrance is so strong that people can't stop eating it.
If we can flatten this city, the Dark Beasts will surely go crazy with grief, right?
It would be even better if you could complete a task and get a treasure chest at the same time.
This territory is so attractive, he will fight to the bitter end and not let go of any points! !
“Hehehe!!”
Xu Qingqiang's strange, greedy laugh came from beside him.
Then he turned into a black shadow and rushed out.
