The explorers of the Kingdom of Maul were the first to discover this low-temperature material area. According to convention, they have the right to name this place and occupy it. Even if the kingdom wants to expropriate this land, they need to be given certain compensation.
So this geothermal energy power plant was named, the Furnace of Eternal Fire, which means the core of energy that will never go out. Although this thing is not fire, in underground civilization, these low-temperature substances have the same meaning as fire.
The name is also quite average in their civilization.
However, it is a pity that whoever discovers it first will get it. This is just a common rule and is generally only valid in uninhabited areas.
When this place is of sufficient value, this conventional rule is meaningless. After the explorers told the king of their kingdom about this important discovery, they soon received a large number of rewards, but they were also clearly informed.
, it is definitely impossible to entrust this place to them.
The adventurers had no objections to this. After discovering the Eternal Fire Furnace, they realized that it was impossible for them to own it. It was already a great honor for them to have the right to name it.
After they reported the situation, they led the troops of the Kingdom of Mor without stopping, preparing to occupy the place. There is no doubt that this kind of place must be a battleground for military strategists. The kingdom has sent a large number of troops. The preparations have been made.
Preparation for conflict.
Just at this time, the patrol force of the neighboring Ironwood Kingdom also discovered the special situation here.
Ever since, the first conflict started like this. The outcome of the war between the regular army and the ordinary patrol troops was unquestionable. But the scouts in charge of the patrol had no other skills, but their mobility was first-class.
, easily escaping pursuit.
Although only a few people ran back in the end, the news that there was a large amount of low-temperature substances here could no longer be concealed. The Ironwood Kingdom also immediately sent out its own army, preparing to compete for this precious energy land.
It can be seen through observation that the giant squid, which is a soldier's mount, has a different appearance from other similar animals. They are more robust and seem to have something like a carapace on their body. After testing, it seems that the thing does not grow naturally.
It's the armor worn. Just like the armor worn by soldiers.
At the ends of the tentacles of these large octopuses, there are sharp barbs. These should be weapons similar to knives and guns installed on them the day after tomorrow.
It can be seen that although they already have long-range weapons, the war is still dominated by cold weapons. Perhaps for them, this should be called hot weapons. After all, the weapons in their hands are hotter than ordinary bullets after they are released.
Much higher.
The two sides started fighting on the first day of contact. A group of giant octopuses entangled themselves and strangled each other with the blades on their tentacles. This scene looked a bit shady.
It has to be said that their huge size gives them powerful melee combat capabilities. Even for biochemical machines, it is definitely not easy to get rid of such thick tentacles. It is likely to be directly crushed, causing magma to leak. This
It's absolutely fatal to the driver.
The huge size of these octopuses means that if they join forces, they may even pose a threat to aircraft carriers and battleship-level warships. Observing this battle made them more determined not to engage in a boarding battle with these monsters.
The bodies of these big guys are extremely tough. It seems that they are inherently more advantageous than carbon-based organisms in terms of physical strength. The strength of their skin alone is comparable to special biochemical armor, and only low temperature can directly destroy the physiological system in their bodies.
Go directly past their defenses and kill them.
The collection of intelligence is undoubtedly extremely important for war. The two kingdoms fighting each other under the eyes of the infected are the best opportunity to collect intelligence.
In Silva's factory, the bases and warships being produced have also been temporarily modified based on the observed data.
After two days of brief conflict, the armies of the two kingdoms temporarily calmed down. The Morr Kingdom temporarily occupied a larger territory, and the Ironwood Kingdom had a stronger desire to attack because it occupied a smaller area, but after creating
After suffering heavy losses, they had to take into account the morale of the army, suspended the attack, and established a strategic line to confront the opponent.
Neither side went close to the geothermal energy power plant. On the one hand, the temperature there was too low for them. If they approached there without any protection, it would be the same as human beings entering the Antarctic polar night naked.
Stopping for five minutes can be considered as a sign of strong vitality.
On the other hand, we must consider that the other side's army may suddenly attack at any time. Such sensitive behavior that arouses people's nerves may break the short-term peace that was finally maintained, and then it will be another fight with heavy casualties.
.
The commander of the Kingdom of Mor tapped the damage of this battle and nodded with relative satisfaction: "The other party's losses were greater than ours. They arrived late after all. Moreover, this place is closer to our military camp.
The enemy's supply line is longer than ours, and if it continues to be delayed, they will definitely fail.
What I need to worry about most now is their counterattack. I don't want to suffer heavy losses because I didn't watch out for the enemy's attack on the eve of success.
Apply to Your Majesty, we will continue to increase our troops. As long as ten thousand more people come here, this place will be safe."
"Please rest assured! Your Majesty has issued a conscription order to the country before I set off, and the supporting troops will arrive soon. I hope you will not disappoint His Majesty's expectations." The emperor's internal guard, who was riding a jet-black octopus, replied with a low infrasound wave.
"This is the best. The commander on the opposite side is no match for me. Even if I give him the same strength, he can't defeat me. Sooner or later, I will lock her in my prisoner camp." The leader of the Kingdom of More
The commander-in-chief seemed very confident. After all, he seemed to have gained a considerable advantage. The only thing worth worrying about now was that the guys in the Ironwood Kingdom were so desperate that they jumped over the wall...
At the same time, the commander of the Ironwood Kingdom was also reporting the situation to the emperor's attendant: "Our supply line is too long, and it was too late to discover this high-energy location. If the stalemate continues, we will definitely lose.
Even the piece that I hold on to now will be lost.
I am asking your Majesty to allow me to use ultra-high temperature explosive bombs to directly destroy high-energy targets. Even if we cannot obtain them, we must destroy them in one fell swoop while still occupying some favorable terrain. Otherwise, if the Kingdom of Mor is allowed to completely occupy this
At the energy point, our national power will be quickly surpassed by them."
The commander had no idea that he was actually seeking death...
