Chapter 616 Chapter 614: Crowning the King
Papal States,
Inside the magnificent and dazzling temple, there is a huge magic mirror suspended in the air, showing the battlefield situation.
The fourth-generation combat aircraft flew across the sky, and the triple magic defense force field was shaped into a streamlined shape. Even the most vulnerable edges were as sharp as a knife.
When approaching the enemy, the heavy machine gun opened fire, and the bullets were like long whips. The fighter suddenly spun at high speed, and countless air currents scattered, cutting through the swarm of drones.
Even if it caused continuous explosions, it would be like exploding fireworks and would not affect the trajectory of the aircraft, let alone cause any damage.
The unmanned aerial vehicle on the Silvertop is well known to be powerful, not only flexible and fast, but also relatively cheap.
In addition to the core control drones and magic drones, there are also unique self-destruct drones that are inexpensive and can explode to injure the enemy.
In the previous battles, I don’t know how much damage was caused to the Prayer Corps. The weaker ones were just living targets and were targeted for elimination.
Even though the major empires later provided a batch of fighter jets, they were far less flexible than drones and could not even achieve a one-for-one replacement.
But this time, facing the fourth-generation aircraft led by Xianhua, they exposed their weaknesses.
The size is there, and the explosion damage alone is not enough to break through the fighter's triple defense field.
The hypersonic speed of a fighter jet merely cuts through the chaotic airflow, causing it to be damaged or exploded.
That high-speed rotation move was also developed by the pilots, and they named it the "Death Roll".
Well, the bottom line is that they don’t even want to use tactical missiles because they think it’s a waste.
Just supersonic flight, equipped with two heavy machine guns, can solve the problem.
Of course, drones are not without means to hurt the enemy. The core magic drone combination can also cause considerable damage by casting powerful arcane spells.
The problem is that the extremely high flying speed is not fake, it disappears in the blink of an eye.
Unless it is ray-type magic, it is difficult to even lock on to it.
After gaining an advantage on the sky battlefield, the ground battlefield will naturally follow suit.
The magic tank, like a steel monster, rumbled forward, and the bullets fired by the two heavy machine guns were already large-caliber armor-piercing bullets.
Even the Iron Golem can't withstand it, let alone the Construct Knight.
If they didn't choose to dodge, they would have been hit by the bullet and suffered wounds the size of a bowl, covered in blood and flesh.
But how difficult is it to avoid it? !
Even if it is controlled intentionally, there are still 600 rounds per minute, pouring down like a rain of bullets, with no way to hide or avoid it.
As for the tank's main gun, it is even more impressive. Every time it fires, it only targets high-value golems.
The fifth-generation tank's built-in aiming system allows the driver to better lock on, has built-in infrared detection magic, and can also lock on weaknesses and control arcanists who have been driven out of the arcane tower.
With one shot, even the Iron Golem's defense was shattered to pieces. Even if it didn't disintegrate, it would be difficult for it to move.
The little flexibility that the Arcanist gained by being present on the battlefield was no match for the speed of the cannonballs.
After all, these iron golems were not designed for flexibility and speed from the beginning, but were mainly focused on defense and propulsion, which is completely different from the development path of mechas.
It can be said that except for the rare diamond golems, all others are sitting ducks.
But even the Diamond Golem may not have enough power. When three or four Land War Kings approached and their engines were turned up to maximum, the excellent design of the track grip became apparent.
Even the exquisite diamond golem had unstable legs and was directly knocked to the ground.
Not to mention that, the King of Land Warfare in Flower Territory has a complete command system, which is surging forward like a river tide.
The wave after wave of attacks was enough to crush all enemies on the way.
The assault team following behind was wearing a full set of dark black combat exoskeleton armor, which provided both defense and strength.
In order to cope with the defensive power of the Golem Legion, this group of guards also updated their weapons accordingly.
For example, the machine gunner's six-barreled Gatling guns were all replaced with armor-piercing bullets, and the ordinary assaulters were all holding grenade launchers.
There are also precision shooters who carry sniper cannons. They can not only shoot far and fast, but also have covering damage.
Even though they were armed to the teeth, they were still doing the mopping-up work, following behind the tank clusters, firing a few sneak shots, or advancing to make the final move.
This scene really stunned countless people.
No matter whether it was the friendly army's Prayer Corps or the enemy's Arcane Tower, they all seemed to be on a different level than what they had faced before.
This advancement was forced to stop until an arcane tower blocked the way.
However, it didn't stop for long.
The Arcane Tower was well prepared. When the tank approached, it launched large-scale, powerful damage magic one after another.
Various thunder and flames, frost spikes, and storm rays were thrown out like they were free, giving the impression of covering the area with firepower.
Even if you are a tank, you can only open the magic shield to the fullest and bear the damage.
A group of soldiers hid under the shield and expanded the defensive force field on the exoskeleton.
Despite multiple defenses, some tanks had their shields shattered, but the number was still in the single digits.
The Guards' counterattack was even more fierce.
A large number of tanks were in a semi-encircled position, each adjusting its angle to carry out a full-coverage attack.
Every salvo fired by the main guns can cause the earth to tremble and cause thunderous explosions.
The Arcane Tower's defensive force field is absolutely powerful. It even made targeted adjustments in the face of artillery fire, using the soft power of the water curtain to reduce kinetic damage.
But as the roar of the main guns became more frequent and the power of the explosions became stronger and stronger, it was almost reaching the limit of the Arcane Tower's tolerance.
Even so, there were fighter jets in the sky coming to cause trouble, and the annihilation and explosion power of tactical missiles were no less than that of tanks.
More importantly, their attack angles and ranges are more numerous and wider, requiring the Arcane Tower to allocate more power for defense.
Half an hour later, the Arcane Tower had become dilapidated and completely abandoned.
A group of arcanists walked out of the door dejectedly, holding their heads and looking depressed.
The legion of petitioners stood guard, holding swords and holding their heads high, as if they had won the victory themselves.
The Flower Territory Guards took a brief rest and then continued to move forward and advance.
Inside the temple, an elderly holy warrior with an old face and a thick body seemed to be stunned.
After a long time, when the battle resumed on the magic mirror, He suddenly asked, "Is this thousand-man army the best in the Flower Territory?"
"this?"
In front of him, the current Pope Saint Clement hesitated for a moment before saying, "My Lord, it should be considered, but it may not be all.
At least from what I've seen, there seem to be stronger types of troops than this one.
This question can be answered by John, as he has a better understanding of the Holy Dragon Demiplane."
As they spoke, the two looked at Saint John!
The Cardinal of the Church of the Sun God, a legendary powerful man, was as nervous as a child at this moment.
He tried hard to suppress his inner anxiety, organized his words, and then said: "In terms of the quality of the soldiers and their equipment, this thousand-man legion is already a member of the Flower Territory's active service and the Abyss Expeditionary Corps. Luo Yi definitely did not use weaklings to fool us.
However, the research and development of magic equipment in Flower Territory has its own characteristics.
They call themselves the conception generation, the research and development generation, the reserve generation, and the production generation.
The fifth-generation tanks and fourth-generation fighter jets that have appeared now are indeed equipped by the Guards, but from my understanding, the sixth-generation tanks and fifth-generation fighter jets should already be in the laboratory."
“Besides that, they also have long-range missiles and combat mechas that have been completed, but they haven’t been delivered yet.
Therefore, the true Flower Territory Guards are only stronger than they appear."
The old paladin asked again, "What about the number? A legion like this shouldn't be too many, right?"
“The frontline combat corps, I’m talking about combat soldiers similar to those in the video, should be around 50,000 people.
However, the Flower Territory has a huge logistics corps, including engineering troops, transport brigades, fighter takeoff and landing ground crews, magic energy machinery maintenance troops, combat command headquarters, combat readiness magic energy factories, etc...."
"If we count them all, there are probably as many as 500,000 people. Although their strength is relatively weak, they can all be deployed to the battlefield as long as Luo Yi gives the order."
The old paladin nodded slowly, and said with some admiration: "As expected of someone who can even break through the Abyss, and indeed a great hero who dares to face the King of the Abyss.
Compared to him, the gods are outdated."
"My Lord, you cannot say that!"
"There is nothing to be said. The Arcane Council of Netheril can use an ultimate arcane to force us into a desperate situation.
This mortal army led by Flowers is stronger than my God War Army. What's wrong with that?
I am God, but no one says that God never makes mistakes, never becomes timid, or never falls behind.
These words, which were almost treasonous, came out so naturally from Him.
However, the Pope and St. John next to them did not feel the slightest sense of shattered faith, but instead became even more devout.
Compared with other gods of Helka, this one is indeed very charismatic, brave and fearless, and can give everything for this world.
He is worthy of worship and faith in every way.
At this moment, the god looked down and said, "Get ready, I need to go out for a while."
"My Lord, are you ready to go?"
"Of course it's the 138th floor of the Abyss. Since you've failed to persuade them, it's time for me to step in.
What's more, if I go there, I can still help him."
…
It took ten days, a full ten days, for Loy and the red dragon Virgil to recover from their half-dead state.
The broken bones were repositioned, the organs were gradually repaired under the continuous nourishment of the gentle holy power, the wounds healed and scabs formed, and the fighting spirit and magic power gradually recovered.
At their current stage, the power in their bodies is too great, and it is no longer possible for them to be full of energy again by taking various rare magic potions like before.
Luo Yi even felt that if he died, even if the Pope was drained of his energy by the "Great Resurrection Technique", it would be difficult for him to recover to his peak state.
But even though his injuries had not yet healed, Luo Yi was still working tirelessly to make various arrangements, assign various tasks, and prepare the legion for the final expedition.
To be honest, in the ninth expedition, the most powerful king of the abyss, Lord Grazzt, appeared. He really couldn't imagine which one would be the last to appear?
At this moment, Luo Yi also realized that his desire to become the King of the Abyss as a mortal was resisted by the will of the Abyss.
He is too high-profile and doesn't even want to be contaminated by the power of the abyss. It's a miracle that the will of the abyss would be willing to do so!
If the matter of Helka plane was not too pressing, it would have been impossible to delay it any longer.
Otherwise, Luo Yi really wanted to wait for ten or a hundred years until his strength accumulated to a certain level before going for the final battle.
The situation was such that he could only fight to the death.
Life is not always perfect. Since both sides are unwilling to give up, we have to fight hard!
The demon lord to be faced in this final battle is a renegade devil, a powerful hell chain demon.
In a sense, demons and devils belong to two irreconcilable races, sworn enemies who will fight to the death upon meeting.
However, under the devil's evil order, there will definitely be rebels against the high-pressure policy.
There are always some devils who are unwilling to obey the orders from above and die. After they choose to escape, they naturally cannot return to hell.
And the abyss is the best place to hide filth and dirt.
The past of this Hell Chain Demon cannot be traced back, but seeing that he was able to become a demon lord on the 138th floor of the abyss and make a name for himself among a group of demons, his strength is also impressive.
The demons under his command were even trained by him to have a sense of order. At least in large-scale wars, they knew how to advance and retreat in unison and obey orders.
This is not easy for most demon armies.
Of course, the reason why he was placed at the end was not because Luo Yi thought he was strong, but purely because he was the farthest away.
But when long-range missiles capable of opening large portals appear, distance is no longer a problem.
The same tactics, first the combat aircraft will lead the way and clear an area,
Then, a long-range missile landed, and a portal suddenly opened in the shock wave and dust.
Then there is the roar of the King of Land Warfare, followed by the galloping of heavy armored troop carriers, legendary warriors soaring in the sky to guard the four directions, and fourth-level natural disasters focusing on guarding a certain direction.
There was also a legion of mages who quickly passed by and built a large magic circle in the open space next to them.
In this final battle, no matter how cautious we are, it would not be excessive. Therefore, a large number of troops were dispatched on this expedition.
But in this case, the portal opened by the missile cannot be maintained for that long, and a new portal point needs to be opened.
The strange thing is that the process was so smooth, so smooth that not a single demon appeared.
This weirdness even spread to the entire battlefield. It was not until the Flower Leader's army advanced forward and reached the Chain Demon's castle that they discovered traces of demons.
However, these demons all chose to kneel on the ground in various postures, burying their heads and raising their buttocks high, as if prostrating themselves on the ground!
The guards were stunned by this scene and found it unbelievable.
But in fact, this scene continued in front of the Devil's Castle.
The demon lord, the Hell Chain Demon, dragged the chains that bound him and walked on his knees, step by step, to the bottom of the demon throne and in front of Loyi.
He looked up with a mixture of fear and curiosity, only a single glance before immediately lowering his head and speaking in a muffled voice, "Chain Demon Chris, I greet the Conqueror King, the greatest mortal hero, His Majesty Loyi.
On behalf of my Lord, I offer you my greatest respects."
"Who is your master?"
"Great Lord of the End of All Things, Recorder of Fates, Steward of the Crystal Tower, the Forgotten, the Merciless, the Ancient Death God Jergal, let the humble Chain Demon greet you.
He is outside the plane, in the Chaos Astral Realm, waiting to see you!"
At this moment, even someone as mentally strong as Luo Yi couldn't help but twitch his face, and then he tried to raise his head and look up at the sky.
He was mentally prepared, but after hearing who was coming, he still couldn't hold it back.
In the multiverse, there are many prime material planes, as well as many upper and lower planes.
But there is only one underworld.
There are many gods of death, and basically there is one in every main material plane, but when it comes to the ancient god of death, there is only one, Jergal.
He is the oldest god of death in the multiverse, bar none. He has been fulfilling the duties of death when intelligent creatures knew nothing about it.
However, when He Himself became tired of it, He gave His divine position to His successor.
After the demise of these gods, they continued to serve the rising gods of death, Cyric and Kronvor.
To be precise, he is only loyal to the position of 'Lord of the Dead'. If there is a god of death in power who cannot perform his duties properly, he will even subvert it in private.
In fact, among so many gods of death, he admires the current god of death, Kelemvor, more, and does not approve of the deceased Melkor and the mortal who became a god, Cyric.
This is because He is dedicated to maintaining the order of death, is the undertaker who upholds fate, and foresees the end of all things.
He is also dedicated to keeping an orderly record of the multiverse's slow decline into death, hence the name "Recorder of Fates".
He used to be a powerful god, even at the top of the multiverse, but now he is just a weak god.
But if you really regard Him as a weak divine power, the steward of the underworld, then you are a fool.
The rules for the promotion of gods in the multiverse have always been that the more believers the better, the more important the priesthood the better, and the wider the distribution of faith the better.
This is the source of their power.
However, when one truly reaches the pinnacle, faith becomes a burden, so the gods strive to get rid of the influence of faith.
There have been many gods and demons who have embarked on this path, but only a handful of them are still around today.
For example, Io, the God of Gods.
For example, the most powerful demon in the Abyss, Obyris, the mother of the Dark Lord Graz'zt, and the Demon Mother Cangye.
Even Asmodeus, the lord of hell who is famous in the multiverse, is still a little short of it.
And Jergal is firmly in this group.
From this point alone, you can imagine how powerful this person is.
At this moment, Luo Yi really felt like he was riding a tiger and was in a dilemma, and his anxiety was about to overflow.
But he was only nervous for three seconds before he patted the red dragon beneath him and said, "We must face what we have to face eventually."
Roaring Roaring Flower...
As if sensing Loy's fighting spirit, the red dragon Virgil flapped his wings and carried Loy up. The powerful dragon wings flapped, and the strong wind brought about was enough to split the space.
At this moment, Roy and Virgil were like lone warriors facing the storm - even if there are thousands of people against us, we will go forward!
And outside the void, in the chaos, death and darkness have long been filled.
That was not the death and darkness in Luo Yi's memory. There was no resentment and unwillingness mixed in, nor was there any lingering echo of blood and fear.
There was only pure death, like the tranquility after a summer rainstorm, and the darkness and safety in the womb.
That is not the state that death and darkness can present, it has a different kind of attraction.
At this moment, Luo Yi also saw Ye Ge's clone.
It was a withered, fragile mummy, its skin gray, tightly wrapped around the remaining skeleton.
Most of his body is covered with a completely opaque cloak that seems to absorb all energy and rules.
His white gloves covered his slender, claw-like hands and forearms.
In his hands, he always clutches a thick scroll covered in intricate, incomprehensible handwriting, and a quill dipped in fresh ink.
At this moment, a king's crown burning with the blazing fire of the abyss appeared before Him.
He looked at Luo Yi, lowered his head slightly, with a hint of approval in his calm eyes. He spoke in the most straightforward tone.
"I am here to crown you king!"
