After a long period of dominance on the strategic map, Blood Moon Black Cloud gradually became bored and slowly began to switch to the world map, becoming a guild player loyal to the world map.
And just playing in any guild is obviously not enough...
Isn't that Liu Yun already a lord?
After all, that guy was once defeated by his subordinates. Even he could play the role of lord with such glory, why can’t I?
With such thoughts in mind, Blood Moon Black Cloud also began his bumpy journey as a lord~
And as people declared war on Liu Yifei one after another on the forum, Xueyue Heiyun, a guy who thinks very highly of himself, simply formed the "Desolate Bone Society" and prepared to continue to use Liuyun's "golden brand" as his stepping stone.
I want to repeat its glory on the strategic map and let this guy fall into pieces again~
And how did he know...even before the real owner showed up, the opponent's firepower was already strong enough to wipe out the entire NPC army on their side!
There are so many unexpected things in Blood Moon and Black Cloud~
For example... although the Dark City in front of us has first-class defensive firepower, it is not a first-class mobile unit under the Plague Alliance.
For example...the vampire army wreaking havoc in the southern territory cannot be stopped by the Desolate Bone Society that Blood Moon Black Cloud is proud of~
For example... none of the extremely powerful spirit-level hero team that has been criticized in the Plague League appears here... In fact, there are still a few in the city, but they have all been dispatched by Xuelan to garrison next to the enchanted catapult.
These three catapults are absolutely precious. There is no room for error, so Xue Lan would rather waste his combat power to ensure that these three catapults are not lost~
Another example... Liu Yifei, Gregory, and Serasto, the three heroes who can be said to be monster-level combat power in the entire alliance, are not present. But now Liu Yifei can mobilize millions of free soldiers
Players, not even a hair appeared here...
Blood Moon Black Cloud indeed once "defeated" Liu Yifei on the world map.
However, it is the result of a combination of many factors.
For example, Liu Yifei was trapped in the battle space and could not enter and exit freely. For example, he was reluctant to give up the huge reward that was right in front of him. For example, Liu Yifei once thought that the opponent could not find his lair...
However, people are always blind~
It is always easy to lose yourself in the achievements you have already made.
They only see the glorious and beautiful side of themselves, but rarely learn lessons from success and reflect on themselves.
If Blood Moon Heiyun was really powerful, how could he be defeated by Liu Yifei in the first place?
If he was really strong enough, why didn't he dare to challenge Liu Yifei in a fair and just duel in the battle space?
If he was really strong enough, why did he have to fight with more and less, and he didn't even dare to go to Liu Yifei's lair alone?
Does Blood Moon Heiyun really not know these issues?
No, he knows~
He knew all this clearly in his heart.
However, after he suddenly defeated Liu Yifei, the honor of becoming "the most perverted lord of the ghost clan" and the praise and admiration of countless people made him lose himself~
Ever since.
"I defeated the enemy with tricks" was simplified to "I defeated the enemy", and Blood Moon Black Cloud even more self-hypnotically believed that I could defeat the same enemy again and again...
He ignored all the changes in the gameplay and background depth of the world map and strategic map~
What he should not ignore is the amazing power Liu Yifei has gained on the world map!
Although "The Uncrowned King" is just a title used privately by players, it also vividly describes Liu Yifei's status in the Kingdom of Solna!
Among the player class, he is the well-deserved number one!
He is also the person who deserves to be closest to the "King" in the entire kingdom!
Sitting on countless armies and vast territory, with powerful subordinates and countless powerful equipment, his personal strength has also reached a considerable level...
From all aspects, Liu Yifei at this time is invincible compared to ordinary players...
Perhaps Liu Yifei can indeed be defeated.
But it’s definitely not something that can be done now, and it’s certainly not something that a small Desolate Bone Society can do~
For example, what happened at Xeris Fortress.
It would take at least tens of millions of players to catch Liu Yifei by surprise and even be unable to resist~
And if you want to assemble such an army of players, without considerable situation convenience and the support of the NPC camp, it will be extremely difficult to rely on the call of a certain person or a group of people~
The same goes for anyone, and he, Blood Moon and Black Cloud, is no exception...
Blood Moon Black Cloud thinks too little~
His blindness and arrogance caused him to lose the possibility of winning even before the war started.
Faced with Palona's questioning and the pair of soul-fire eyes so close at hand, he stammered and couldn't say even a single word. He just kept hemming and hawing...
..
"Useless trash!"
Parona really wants to stab this idiot-like waste to death~
It's just that he is the last connection with the Desolate Bone Society at the moment. If Parona lost all his strength here, but the adventurers like the Desolate Bone Society were somehow able to escape...
Naparo was afraid of death~
Right now, he has to use all the power of even one ant!
"Now, send all your men up!
I will organize a team to open the opponent's city gate!
You have to rush in at all costs!
If you mess up this time...
Blood moon and black clouds, you can trust me~
Even if you adventurers are immortal beings blessed by the goddess of the world, I will make you pay a heavy price..."
At that moment, the soul fire in Parona's pupils almost shrank to a little needle light. But he was more bloodthirsty and crazy than ever before staring at the black cloud of the blood moon in front of him.
Bai. Shivered and nodded.
"Understood, go and command your troops! This is your last chance!"
Parona kicked the blood-moon black cloud away with a fierce kick, but secretly spat and began to look for a suitable fighter opportunity in the situation...
To say that we expect to defeat the Dark City in one battle this time... Palona feels that it is impossible~
However, he doesn’t have many trump cards anymore~
From this point of view, are we forced to use that trick... Involuntarily, "memories" of the past began to flash in Palona's soul...
It was an overwhelming group of enemies, and it was a territorial duel that was a hundred times more brutal than what we saw before!
However, in the duel with the enemy, Parona, once known as the "Sword of the Kingdom", was defeated...defeated by the enemy's shameful conspiracy~
Defeated, he was almost killed!
If King Garthwood hadn't missed his old love and saved a little bit of his soul fire in the end, I'm afraid Parona would have become a pile of desolate bones on the roadside that no one would want to take a second look~
However, even so, most of Parona's strength has been lost.
The once legendary black warrior general has become a waste at the spiritual level today... At least in the eyes of NPCs, such strength is really no different from waste~
With the existence of spiritual steps, you can catch a lot of them in the wild, so why waste your energy on a useless person?
So Parona finally received a secret order from King Garthwood, went out to accumulate strength in the wilderness, and launched infiltration attacks against the "enemy country" at any time...
To outsiders, King Garthwood's secret order is tantamount to exile.
To put it nicely, letting him go out to handle confidential matters, to put it bluntly, doesn’t it mean that he is transferred out of the country and left to fend for himself?
But thinking about it in Palona, this was King Garthwood's last grace for him...Leave the core of the power dispute, leave the dangerous gambling table that requires strength to participate, and go to a peaceful place to start again.
Accumulate strength.
Although the road ahead seems far away, for the undead, time is meaningless~
Moreover, for Parona, who has already experienced the realization of power once, it is only a matter of time to break through the threshold of the spiritual level again and become a legend~
And as long as he carefully conceals his whereabouts and has the "Kingdom Secret Order" by his side, those former opponents will not pursue him fiercely...
However, Parona, who went abroad alone, actually had some trump cards to protect himself.
For example, he once "perceived" "that existence" with the power of legend.
In fact, at that time, Parona was only a hair away from becoming a legendary existence~
He has established a stable connection with that great existence. As long as he can offer a suitable "sacrifice", he can obtain the "power of rules"! And as long as he obtains even a little bit of the power of rules, he is a legendary level
The existence...a super existence countless times more powerful than the legend!
It is precisely because of such confidence and strength that he fell into the opponent's conspiracy without realizing it. Otherwise, how could his majestic sword of the kingdom end up in such a situation?
What Parona didn't expect was that after his strength plummeted, he still maintained the soul connection with "that existence"...
The feeling was indescribable, as if there was a pair of great and wise eyes staring at me in the distant infinite void.
Silent and profound, yet seemingly able to see through everything, including him, his armor, and his soul~
For countless days and nights, Parona thought more than once about trying to contact that great existence and offer him enough sacrifices to gain his favor and regain his lost power~
But it was his "pennilessness" that stopped Parona.
Wanting to please a god-level being...that's no joke~
Now that I can't even train and refine my soul power, what kind of sacrifice can I offer...
However, this time, Parona has no way out~
Even if something goes wrong, he must take the risk!
Under the call of Parona, our own hero troops quickly gathered together, and these bandit groups that were not under Parona's control had already been scolded by this time. At first glance, Parona still summoned them like nothing happened.
.Immediately there was a burst of random yelling and cursing.
“Maggots who deserve to be roasted in the underworld fire!
Parona, you idiot with a brain stuffed with ashes!
You told us beforehand that this was a fortress where adventurers gathered that could be easily captured.
But look what you have done!
Is this a ‘paper defense’?
Death is upon us!
I have never seen such a 'frail' defense!
We were so fragile that even though we attacked tens of thousands of people, we still didn't even demolish a single city gate!
Damn Parona!
Are you kidding us?
You want to consume all our strength here, and then dominate the entire Gastyre Basin by yourself, right!!!"
As soon as Parona approached, a corpse witch holding a golden scepter in his hand and wearing a gold crown jumped up with a shout, as if he wanted to poke Parona's eye socket with his staff.
"Jamas, stop whining there.
Do you think your shouting and scolding will help the situation?
Did you see that my troops were also on the front line and were the first to stand in front of the enemy's fire?
I swear this is definitely not a trap, and I didn't know beforehand that the enemy was so powerful...
Okay~
I admit this was a mistake.
Before we came, I didn’t know the strength of the local adventurer group. My information... came from another bastard adventurer. And he obviously underestimated our opponents..."
"I knew it!
I knew it!
Damn Parona!
I'm going to kill you!
I want to capture that idiot adventurer again and make him a specimen! I will imprison his soul in my tomb forever!
You two are worthless and deserve eternal damnation from the God of Death!!!”
This time, not only the Corpse Witch was angry, but after Parona told the truth, the others also jumped up and cursed.
Although they are just a group of bandits wandering in the wilderness and making a living by looting.
However, the harsh living environment and narrow struggle space also made them have much more affection for their subordinates than the other lords under the traditional forces had for their armies.
In fact, it is precisely because of this "emotion" that the individual strength of their subordinates is much stronger than the individuals in the ordinary army, and they are one step closer to spiritual intelligence.
The close influence of the soul is always the best way to inspire new souls~
But as the old saying goes, just because there is love, there is hate~
The rarer these subordinates are, seeing them being dumped like rubbish under the fierce firepower of the Dark City, the more excited these spirit-level bandit leaders become, wishing they could gather together and tear Palona apart~
“Enough!!!
You brainless idiots!!!
How long do you plan to continue this quarrel!!!"
At this moment, Parona's shout instantly shocked all the spirit-level bandit leaders who were about to go berserk, causing them to have a moment of silence.
"I said it!
This is a misunderstanding!
I don't want it to happen either!
My troops are just like yours, and even suffer more casualties than yours!
At this point, it has become meaningless to discuss the issue of responsibility~
It’s okay to discuss it if you want, but at least we have to wait until the battle is over, right?
Do you want the last of your subordinates to die on the front line while we are having internal strife and quarrels!!!"
"oh!
Yes~
So now... withdraw all your subordinates quickly?"
"No!
If we withdraw now, no one will die~
By now, I think everyone has discovered it~
The enemy's military equipment is not sufficient. Except for some adventurers, there are only a few thousand dwarf soldiers in the city, which can be regarded as a little combat power...
Damn it~
I really don't understand how these short guys with their heads full of minerals can get involved with guys like Solna.
Didn't it mean that the elves are currently at war with Solna and Ptolemy?
How come there are elves helping them?"
Having said this, even Parona seemed a little strange and couldn't help but ask.
"Ha~
Interesting question.
Now Solna is at war with the elves, may I ask, what are we doing?"
A dead soul next to him who had been silent all of a sudden suddenly made a sound, causing all the other dead souls to cast a sidelong glance at him...
However, no one accepted his words. This topic is really too sensitive~
Everyone had some idea of Parona's identity, so they all made it clear that they did not want to go into detail about the reason for his aggressive attack on Solna. It was enough to just give them their share of the benefits as they had agreed in advance.
Already~
And this undead spirit suddenly brought up such a topic at this moment... Obviously, everyone couldn't help but murmur in their hearts.
The same race is fighting fiercely with the foreign race, and he is trying to drag down the same race behind his back... If this reputation is shouted out, it will not sound good...
Palona also wisely did not answer the other party's words, but changed the subject and talked about the situation again.
"Now everyone has invested a lot of troops on the front line. If we choose to retreat at this time...then we will really lose~
Not only did we lose here, we will no longer have a place in the Fostel Basin~
Do you think that after losing the support of our subordinates, those evil wolves on the periphery can still sit back and watch us regain control of the inherent territory of the basin?
I dare say~
As long as the news of our defeat here today spreads out...our usual old opponents will come to visit us the next day, and then there will be endless battles and harassment every day, until our souls
The fire was completely extinguished..."
As Parona spoke, the other bandit leaders around him became silent~
In fact, they knew very well that what Palona said was right.
How can Parona say that there is still a kingdom looming behind it to support him? Maybe he will be defeated here, but he can still rise again in the future.
But they...they are really homeless bandit leaders.
Once you fail here, you will really die without a burial place~
Or are they willing to work as someone else's subordinate in another organization?
Just kidding~
If they were really willing to do this, they would have already found a job from other lords, so why bother living a precarious life of bandits?
Among the almost eternal undead tribe, this can be said to be the most dangerous "profession"...
"Then what do you think we should do?
This is the situation we are in now. You have to give us some advice!
Parona, I can tell you~
If all my people are here to pay for it today... I won't let you go even if we die together!"
A bandit leader who looked like a vampire hero said fiercely~
"So...we're going to take a gamble now!
At any cost!
Knock open the opponent's city gate!
The enemy's mechanical firepower far exceeds our imagination~
If we continue to fight like this, we have no chance of winning~
Now that we still need to fight hard, we all head up to the city with firepower and rush to knock down their city gates! As long as this is done, we can drag the enemy into street fighting!
I have already reached an agreement with those adventurers~
As soon as the city gate opens, they will be the first group to rush in as the vanguard.
When the time comes, follow them. Our losses will be much smaller..."
"What?
Hit the city gate?
Palona, are you crazy?
Haven't you seen how many crossbow machines your opponent has placed near the city gate?
He actually said he was going to hit the city gate?
I think you simply don’t want to live anymore and you want to bury us together!!!”
As soon as he heard Parona's plan, the corpse witch who had been chirping before immediately shouted in fear.
"Damn~
Jamath, you are as timid as a maggot!
You will only dare to be a useless person who huddles in the shadows and casts spells for the rest of your life!
Don't you dare to be brave even once?
Say it again~
I didn’t let you hit me with your body!
You can definitely summon enough bone dragons or vampires to cover us and attack their city gate!
Do you think I would expect your rotten bones to be able to break open the enemy’s iron city gate!!!”
After a brief period of confusion, the bandit leaders finally reached a consensus...that is, they agreed with Palona's plan~
As Palona said, once they fall here today, they will probably never have the chance to stand up again in the future~
The undead clan is a cold and cruel clan~
Even the battles within the kingdom are fierce and cruel. What's more, they are a bandit group living in a no-nonsense zone?
The crushing and killing of each other is as frequent as the beating of soul fire, in the entire Fostel Basin. Dozens of bandit groups are destroyed every day, but more large and small groups are born.
This is simply a chaotic place of battle~
And if there are no subordinates, no strongholds, and no enough rest and recovery, even a spiritually powerful man will only end up running to death in this chaotic wilderness.
And that kind of ending is obviously something that no one here wants to experience...
The "city assault force" was quickly formed.
It consists of seventeen spiritual warriors as a charge force and six spiritual wizards as cover members.
Originally, this team could have been stronger, but unfortunately in the previous battle, the dozen bandit leaders had been silenced by the enemy's unprepared and fierce firepower, just like those unknown ordinary soldiers. Humble and sudden.
.....
No matter how sad or angry they are, this is the last chance for these bandits~
If they fail again this time... I'm afraid they will have to think about how to escape.
Although they must have an undying feud with the enemy, what to do is a matter for the future. What they need to consider most right now is how to break through the enemy's defense...or escape with their lives despite the enemy's fire~
"Okay, skeletons! Use your last strength! It's time for us to fight hard!"
Parona screamed sharply, but was the first to rush forward~
The figure has turned into a jumping and flexible black line on the ground. Under the cover of the thick night, it jumps forward quickly as if it is invisible~
From time to time, he would pan and change direction, causing all the crossbow bolts that tried to intercept him to fall into the air.
Closer...closer...
The war blade in my hand has been raised~
The sound of whining through the sky is like a scream that tears apart the space~
"Fifty meters in front of the city gate! Covering attack!!!"
Following Xue Lan's loud shout, countless crossbow arrows of the same specifications and as thin as a finger broke through the air at the same time, and a small amount of crossbow arrows mixed in them made a sound like a low humming vibration.
Advanced coverage of the fifty-meter area in front of the Dark City gate~
Boom boom boom~~~
The crossbow bolts came down like a rain of arrows, and the firepower of the catapults also gathered at almost the same time~
Compared to crossbows, catapults are slightly less lethal, but the huge bombs make their attacks more terrifying and irresistible~
Being penetrated by a bed crossbow bolt may not necessarily kill you, but if you are hit by a catapult stone... it will definitely turn into bone powder and flesh!
Even a spiritual level hero has to dodge such an attack carefully~
The black shadow flashed left and right in front of the city gate like an erratic ghost.
Jumping on the head of the skull, twisting suddenly next to the dead body, charging together with the undead, exchanging forwards and backwards with the vampire...
In the dense rain of attacks, Parona's figure has reached its extreme!
And just when he was about to be unable to hold on any longer, more black shadows appeared... as many as a dozen or twenty, even mixed with a group of powerful bone dragons and vampire followers, like a huge army.
Like a mighty new force, they surged toward the city gate~
This time, the enemy has obviously tried their best and vowed to seize the gate of Dark City from the Dark People~
However, what no one noticed during the war was that in the chaos, Parona's soul fire had changed from the original fishy red to a frosty white color in an instant~
Like a pair of soul fires covered in ice and snow, they reveal the coldness and ruthlessness that erodes the human heart...
