The battle that broke out in the nest of the Spider Woman clan was in full swing. In the deep underground world that no one knew about, a long-planned war to kill the clan had already begun.
Destruction or survival is the bargaining chip of both sides in this war~
Perhaps the enemies hiding behind the scenes have more ideas. However, all this means little to the Spider Woman clan. As long as they lose the heritage and history of the clan, they will be destroyed.
Even if you are lucky enough to survive in the end, you will just become a puppet in the hands of others, just like countless slaves captured and controlled by the spider women in the past years.
However, outside of this seemingly hopeless battle, there is still a small group of people struggling desperately, struggling to push through the thick fog of war, trying to see the reality behind the illusion~
It has been about two days since we set out for the Dark Beetle's base camp.
In the past two days, Liu Yifei's elite team tried their best and finally managed to figure out the general structure of the transit troop stronghold created by the surrounding dark insect swarm.
When the information was finally gathered into Liu Yifei's hands, to be honest, it was hard for him to believe that with the power of the Dark Beetle, he could actually excavate such a huge space comparable to the size of the underground imperial city!
At least judging from the overall structure of this underground ant nest space, it can never exist naturally. Even if it is modified on the basis of the original natural space, I am afraid that the amount of work completed during this period will definitely exceed Liu Yifei's.
What to expect from a novice lord who has just entered the ranks of a great lord.
Although when he first thought about conquering the Dark Beetle clan, Liu Yifei considered the value of the other party's ability to dig holes and create soil, as well as the various associated values derived from the large number of the other party's clan.
But when all of this was displayed in front of him in an extremely vivid and realistic way, Liu Yifei was still surprised by the potential of the dark beetle!
In the past two days, Liu Yifei also thought about sending someone back to contact the troops stationed in the Brood, and at the same time observe how the situation developed.
At least from the data that can be observed in Liu Yifei's Lord interface, it seems that it is not a little bit serious.
In the past two days, except for the first day when Liu Yifei and the others came out, Gregory and other resident personnel could still maintain more than 80% of the mp stock. When Liu Yifei came online again the next day, almost all hero units had insufficient mp.
Half of the MPs are in stock, and this number is gradually declining over time.
If there hadn't been any serious losses in the team until now, I'm afraid Liu Yifei would have tried to lead his men back this time!
But even so, when he saw that even the strongest Gregory in the team was about to run out of MP, Liu Yifei couldn't help but feel more and more anxious~
Before setting off, I thought I could achieve it in one fell swoop and hold the entire Dark Beetle in my hands. I didn't expect that there would be so many things going on, and the enemy's offensive was obviously beyond the capacity of the Great Mistress's troops. If they continued
If the delay continues, I'm afraid Liu Yifei will really have to lose cleanly this time before he can leave the game.
"Why!"
Liu Yifei punched the ground with some reluctance and sighed.
Before getting involved in the battle, they didn’t have a deep understanding of the situation. They only knew a little bit about it and thought they could fish in troubled waters and reap the benefits. In order to rush for time, the large group of troops even carried out some sort of division of troops. Later, they still failed to predict the enemy’s strength or identity due to insufficient intelligence.
Zhong Naiqing actually trapped himself in the middle, unable to move forward or retreat.
Looking back at his arrangements for this march, Liu Yifei really wanted to slap himself twice!
Fortunately, the outside world has spread rumors about his ability to lead troops in battles, and people in the alliance worship him even more. Take a closer look. Liu Yifei simply doesn’t know what he is doing this time!
Fortunately, it would take a while for the army of players behind him to arrive, otherwise Liu Yifei would really have ruined his reputation this time with his own hands!
But having said that, if those player troops could arrive at the battlefield quickly, maybe the battle situation would not be as bad as it is now.
Compared with NPC troops, the biggest advantage of player troops is that they can take drugs!
This time Liu Yifei came out well prepared. Whether it was precious battlefield medicine or general recovery food, Liu Yifei brought enough quantities. He only had to push a large supply truck to move the entire territory's warehouse.
If these factors can be taken into account, coupled with the sophisticated equipment of the player's troops, perhaps the heroes who stay in the brood will not have to fight so hard.
After all, the gap between the "army" composed of a polished commander and a general is huge. If we can get the players to come over quickly,
"Oh! No, no! What is all this? Why do I still have such a sense of luck at this time?"
Just as he was thinking about something, Liu Yifei suddenly slapped himself in the face!
The war actually got to the point where he started to think about the "what if" lucky situation. Liu Yifei really felt like he was getting better and better~
Forcing himself to concentrate, Liu Yifei had no choice but to start thinking of other ways to save the crisis.
After losing traces of Liu Yifei's troops here, the Dark Beetle side sent a large number of cannon fodder troops to frantically search for Liu Yifei and the others in the surrounding large area of underground space, and at the same time began to continuously transport support troops to the front line according to the original plan.
If Liu Yifei is really willing to spend money, the narrow tunnel space of those troop transport corridors is very suitable for his generals to do the work of one man.
Anyway, the undead units are not tired. As long as they block key points, they can at least cut off more than half of the opponent's troop transport channels.
However, this is not safe.
There seems to be a group of dark beetles that are really good at digging holes. Once these guys open up a branch to bypass the manpower arranged by Liu Yifei, it will be a waste of fighting power. It will be difficult to rescue the subordinates. Instead, they may be killed.
The enemy is trapped and dead everywhere.
However, if you directly attack the enemy's transit base,
Although that strange black fog monster has never appeared again, and no other strange insects have been seen, but what if there are others lurking there?
Two days ago, the huge and terrifying purple tentacles stirred up purple light all over the sky and instantly "dissolved" an invisible mountain rock. Liu Yifei's heaven-defying combat skills are still fresh in his memory!
If such a being decides to launch a sneak attack, even a "semi-legendary" being like Bomian may not be able to withstand it. A frontal attack is really a bad idea.
"Otherwise, how about we still carry out the original plan?"
"Lord Liuyun, what do you mean?"
“Let’s start with the Evil Beetle clan!
Our current strength is still a bit too weak. We have generals but no soldiers. It is too difficult to control the situation~
In the past two days, we have roughly grasped the surrounding terrain. If we are careful, it will not be difficult to avoid the other party's detection.
Now the enemies are probably looking for us all over the world. I'm afraid we won't know if we will come back and fight again.
Misha, please tell me the truth. Assuming that there are no more black fog monsters like before, can you ensure that you can control the evil beetles in a short time? I mean, it should be completed within half a day!"
"The selection of the Insect King is not as simple as you think, sir.
But my control over my clan should be no less than the supervision of relatives sent by the Insect King. As long as I can get rid of those troublemakers, it only takes a moment to control the evil beetle clan."
"Then is there any way to find out for the relatives of the Ruins King? We can't rush into the territory of the evil beetles and kill them randomly, right? We have to take into account the time consumed in the process and the possible reinforcements from the enemy.
."
"Maybe some tongue grabbing?"
Misha hesitated and came up with a stupid idea.
"No~
You should be familiar with the command system of the Evil Beetle itself, right?
If you want to find out the location of those supervisors, you must at least be someone with some status within the clan.
Not to mention how difficult it is to catch such a tongue, and it is also easy to alert the other party. When the time comes, it will be enough for them to hide in a corner and just wait for reinforcements. Who will come out to kill us?"
"Forehead"
Misha couldn't help but be speechless.
It is very difficult to catch a being like the Insect King from the insect nest, especially when the opponent has already known in advance that there is a group of enemies wandering within the power. I am afraid that as long as a slight abnormality is discovered, the whole thing will be destroyed.
The tribe immediately went on alert.
This is really difficult to handle.
"Master~ How about tricking the other party into coming out?"
The situation here was boiling with anxiety, and Bomian, who had been silent until now, suddenly spoke for the rare occasion.
"Hmm? Cheating? How to lie?"
Liu Yifei couldn't help being stunned when he heard this, and asked curiously.
"What do you think?"
Bomian raised his hand as he spoke, and at the next moment, without giving Liu Yifei any time to mentally prepare, a red flame suddenly rolled out from under the zombie's feet, swallowing Bomian completely in almost an instant!
However, the fire that startled Liu Yifei did not have actual lethality. Instead, it obscured Bomian's image. Even standing next to Bomian, Liu Yifei could not see clearly under the flames.
Bomian’s familiar zombie face~
"This is a great trick of disguise"
Liu Yifei's eyes suddenly burst into astonishing excitement!
Damn~
What a great way to disguise yourself!
Bomian thought of it, why didn't I?
That's what I should have thought of!
Damn it!
Damn it
While Liu Yifei was dancing excitedly, he was still happily complaining about himself in his heart.
I am really used to the comfortable life in the past, either relying on my strength to easily crush the enemy, or else encountering a powerful opponent on the battlefield whose strength is so abnormal that he cannot even fight against him!
In short, under the two extremes, Liu Yifei has gradually become accustomed to a straight-forward fighting style, either killing people or being killed. He rarely considers various situations, especially in some deadlock situations, using some small means to find another way.
Liu Yifei seems to be completely unfamiliar even to himself~
At least when I played the stand-alone version of Heroes of Might and Magic 3, the skill "Camouflage" was sometimes really good at mitigating the enemy's attack and giving yourself a chance to breathe. If you use it well, it can really scare the shit out of your opponent.
~
That's it
Judging from the current situation, no matter what degree of tacit understanding the Fire Elemental Man has reached with the Dark Beetle and the real mastermind behind all this, there is no doubt that the Fire Elemental Man should be an ally of the Dark Beetle for the time being.
And more importantly, as a powerful group of all-spiritual heroes, compared to the Dark Beetles, a group with low intelligence and low strength, they are not a little bit superior. Especially in this battle, they are the main force to restrain the Spider Woman. I think in the alliance
The status is not low, at least it can be considered as a middle or high-level position.
And if under such circumstances, a group of high-level leaders from the alliance suddenly visit the rear stronghold for no apparent reason, the leader must at least send someone out to find out what went wrong, right?
So when a group of "fire elemental people" suddenly appeared out of nowhere, the situation was exactly as Liu Yifei expected!
The surrounding dark beetles did not swarm him madly and drown him. Instead, they kept making way for the opponent as he advanced, appearing to be in awe of him.
After waiting for a moment in the territory of the evil beetles, a group of dark beetles that were obviously different from the surrounding evil beetles in size and appearance quickly ran out from a corner.
"Respected Lord of Fire. Warrior. Great. I offer my divination. My king's respect~
What are you here for?
The battle ahead should not be here."
The leader, a strange alien insect that looked like a purple beetle, asked stutteringly in broken Common Tongue.
"We are the reinforcements who were ordered to come~
Take us to see your supreme commander here, the will of chaos has new orders."
"Fire Elemental Man" Liu Yifei tried his best to sound cold and arrogant. In fact, he couldn't guess what the fire elemental man's tone should be when communicating with these dark beetles, but considering the strength of the group, he should be more arrogant.
Bar?
This time we can only rely on blindness.
"Reinforcements? I never mentioned it. My king has a chaotic will. I don't know."
"have no idea?
Hum~humble existence
Then ask your top commander here to quickly contact your king and ask him if he knows what ‘chaotic will’ means!
If it delays the battle and affects the outcome, do you think you can afford to pay for it with your humble life?"
Liu Yifei's voice suddenly turned cold, and he subconsciously took a step forward to approach the big beetle who was speaking.
"Supreme Commander. I am ordered to lead the Evil Beetle. My king's great order."
"you?
snort
Then contact your king quickly!
Do you think that with your humble status, you are qualified to learn about top-secret military aircraft?
Go contact your king and let him judge our intentions, and then you can get new orders, stupid insect."
"It is the great Lord of Fire. Wait a moment."
This person is really a resolute character. As he spoke, he seemed to be planning to take his people back to contact his insect king to confirm the identities of Liu Yifei and the others.
"etc!"
However, before he could actually turn around and leave, Liu Yifei immediately stopped him again.
"Stupid guy!
Do you want to leave us here as a showpiece for your humble subordinates?
Let’s go together too! Once I contact your queen, I’ll talk to it directly~
I hope you, stupid guy, don’t have to do anything today!”
Without waiting for the other party to express his position, Liu Yifei waved his hand in an arrogant manner, and all the "fire elemental people" behind him followed up on their own initiative, surrounding the pitiful big beetle and submerging themselves back into the tunnel from which they came out before.
After making three or two turns and gradually entering the underground space where the insects outside could not see, Liu Yifei, the leader, suddenly coughed slightly.
The next moment, before the surrounding guards, including the leading beetle, could react, everyone disappeared from sight in an instant!
Soul space!
In order to ensure that all the dark beetles here could be killed in one pot without any noise, Liu Yifei asked all his subordinates to open their soul spaces in batches, especially the leader, who seemed to be a spiritual or quasi-spiritual being. Naturally,
Bomian, the strongest member of the team, is responsible for the suppression.
While several soul spaces were opening, the remaining "fire elemental people" flew towards the bottom of the cave.
God knows if there are other guys hiding down there, but since you have come in, you must make sure to eliminate them all without missing a beat.
And while the cave here was busy removing the eyeliner arranged by the current Dark Beetle King, coordinated actions began outside on the other side!
Before Liu Yifei and others took action here, he had already sent a signal to his subordinates who were ambushing outside, and almost at the same time that the soul space swept away all the beetle monsters and their evil beetle guards, Misha was already surrounded by several undead warriors.
Rush out from under the general's guard~
The appearance of the former insect king of the same race really stimulated the surrounding evil beetles, especially when the opponent was accompanied by a "fire elemental man". With the ability of ordinary evil beetles, it is absolutely impossible to see through the camouflage technique cast by the spirit-level hero. This time
That’s a bad thing~
Misha rushed to the center of the cave almost swaggering, and then suddenly raised his head upwards and let out a high-frequency neighing sound that was almost like piercing clouds and cracking rocks!
Just as Misha was "howling" loudly, the other beetles in the surrounding caves also responded with their neighing sounds at once. This seems to be a way of communication between insects~
Just shouting, with Misha's position as the center of the circle, countless groups of vicious beetles in the surrounding layers began to lower themselves to the ground, like welcoming a king returning from a long journey, and moved towards the center.
