The dungeon camp's war of aggression against the tower camp was by no means launched suddenly.
This is the first conclusion Liu Yifei came to after roughly understanding the whole incident.
In the early days of the war, the underground city forces invaded various places in the tower camp through multiple ground exits to varying degrees.
Naturally, the tower camp could not allow the evil monsters from the dungeons to wander around in their own territory, so the regular army quickly dispatched, and in just two days, all the dark monsters from the dungeons that were dispatched from all over the place were rushed to the vicinity of various underground exits.
.
However, things have only just begun here~
Just when they were about to drive all the monsters back underground, the dungeon camp's long-planned back-up plan suddenly came to light.
Just overnight, after a series of magical effects, a large number of ground exits suddenly appeared behind the regular troops dispatched from the tower.
This time it was no joke, a "large number" of ground exits appeared all at once.
And just when the regular troops of the Tower Clan were unable to turn around and respond.
A large number of dungeon monsters emerged from these newly emerged ground exits. The enemies of the main force of the dungeon, including the Minotaur troops, showed far more terrifying strength than the previous invading forces.
They were attacked by a powerful Minotaur force totaling hundreds of thousands, especially the tower clan's troops, which were mostly made up of puppet troops with slow movements and relatively slow reactions. The tower party's losses were unimaginably heavy.
Especially the mage mercenaries of the Tower Clan who set off with the army, it can be said that they were killed and injured in a mess.
Among the basic mercenaries of the Tower Clan, goblins, dolls, and gargoyles are all mercenaries with extremely low intelligence. If there are not enough grassroots commanders, the actual combat effectiveness they can exert is very limited. Unless they learn from the Ghost Clan,
Take advantage of economic advantages to fight waves.
These dolls and gargoyles are definitely much more powerful than the skeletons and corpses of the ghost clan~
But the problem is that their cost is much higher than that of skeleton soldiers.
Therefore, if you want to improve the overall combat capability of the army, you must either recruit grassroots officers (referring to players) on a large scale, or cooperate with more mage mercenaries.
It should be said that the mage mercenaries of the Tower Clan are still very powerful. Since they are also mid-level creatures and of the spell-casting system, their intelligence is not low and they are capable of playing temporary command roles in the army.
But whether it is a caster or a commander, such a role forces them to stay behind the position and the army, directing and dealing damage in a safer situation.
The dungeon seems to be waiting for this opportunity.
First attract the opponent's attention with some large numbers of fish-bellied troops that are actually just cannon fodder, and then suddenly attack the opponent's rear formation, directly inflicting heavy damage to the opponent on the premise that the puppet troops cannot fully protect the mage.
The mass deaths of mage mercenaries plunged the Tower Clan's vanguard army into complete chaos.
At this time, the dungeon also decisively increased its troops, and finally cooperated with the inside and outside, and almost wiped out all the regular troops sent by the Tower Clan countries. Even the hundreds of thousands of players who occasionally entered the battlefield (scattered in many different battlefields) were also involved.
destroyed together.
As soon as this incident came out, the entire Talou clan was shocked.
The high-level NPCs in the Tower Clan are basically all powerful alchemists or great alchemists with incredible skills, so they are not very Machiavellian and almost all of them put their energy into their own affairs.
Strength improvement or academic and technical research.
In addition to these powerful spellcasters, some other high-level NPCs in the Tower Clan are humanoid creatures such as the Lord of Gods and Monsters, the Naga Queen, and the Titan Giant.
They are powerful and intelligent, but they do not have as much desire for power as humans.
Therefore, the Tower Clan can basically be said to be a camp whose national system is not rigorous.
Perhaps due to this influence, the Tower Clan only has three old countries in total (see Chapter 321 of Volume 4 for details).
And this sneak attack in the underground city carried out an indiscriminate sweep of them all, killing hundreds of thousands of cannon fodder troops and tens of thousands of mage mercenary elites from various countries in one fell swoop.
This situation has not been seen for many years. The three countries mobilized urgently and began to concentrate their elite forces in order to conquer the enemy's main force in one fell swoop and completely disintegrate the underground city's conspiracy.
It's a pity that this time the sorcerers in the dungeon seem to be unwilling to be left alone, and plan to really show off their rivals for countless years.
The reinforcements of the Tower Clan were unexpectedly attacked by the underground city again.
It turned out that after completely wiping out the leading troops of the Tower Clan, the underground city only allowed a large number of cannon fodder troops to stay and garrison in place, pretending to plan a showdown with the opponent, but instead quietly evacuated all the main Minotaur forces.
The Minotaur is a powerful ground unit that is not slow. In addition, the underground network extends in all directions. You can often go to two completely different places on the ground thousands of miles apart in one transition.
For the above-ground races, the underground tunnels that are as dense and chaotic as spider webs are impossible to distinguish. But for the underground city camp, except for a few natural tunnels, most of the underground tunnels were dug by them.
And cavemen and their like are the most powerful miners and tunnel diggers, so how could they not know their own way?
The sneak attack in the dungeon is as fast as thunder and as powerful as thunder.
On the way to multiple reinforcements, they first attacked the opponent's main formation with Gorgon archers, evil eyes, and then a large number of harpy witches attacked the opponent's goblins and witches.
After suppressing the opponent's long-range firepower, the Minotaur troops quickly moved forward, rushing away hundreds of thousands of reinforcements from the tower camp in one fell swoop.
Although during the resistance process, the regular troops of the Tower camp also showed strong combat effectiveness and caused considerable losses to the underground city side, this comparison is completely meaningless. The Tower camp was still defeated in the end. In several directions,
At the same time, they encountered major setbacks, and even had to suspend the volunteer troops on several other routes to prevent more sneak attacks in the underground city.
Just when everyone thought that the war situation would continue to be anxious until more reinforcements were found in the tower or dungeon to break the balance of the current situation, unexpected changes happened again.
That is the "final raid" of the third phase of the dungeon camp plan
It was during this link that the dungeon party revealed their ferocious fangs.
Tens of thousands of giant dragons gathered together
Carrying a large number of conventional biological troops, such as evil eyes, medusas, minotaurs and other mid-level troops in a terrifying and inexplicable situation, coupled with a large number of manticores cruising around, they formed a formation with a scale and strength that can be called
The super powerful air raid army that defies the sky
The target is to attack the capital of one of the three kingdoms within the Tower Clan - the "Kingdom of Steel and Mercury"
This was actually a terrifying battle that reached the level of a battle to attack and defend a royal capital.
Previous battles such as the Red Soul Undead Army battle in the Elf Tribe or the Undead Rebel Battle in the Kingdom of Dickwell.
Although the momentum is equally terrifying, it is only for the "player group" who have never seen the world.
As far as the entire game background is concerned, those are still just small battles that take place in local areas.
But this time the battle between the dungeon and the tower clan was obviously a head-on collision with the full strength of the clan.
Not only did the war spread directly to the entire Talou clan, but the military front was also directed at the capital of a king in one of the Three Kingdoms.
At this moment, the sinister intentions of the underground city were immediately known to all passers-by. Everyone immediately thought that this large-scale melee that lasted for nearly half a month was probably an outbreak that the underground city had planned for a long time.
Tens of thousands of black dragon troops, hundreds of thousands of manticore troops, and millions of other mid-level mercenary troops...
This is a luxurious army that can only be assembled by the combined efforts of the entire clan.
And it was precisely this kind of army that instantly turned the capital of the "Stir Mercury Kingdom" into a sea of flames~
The sorcerers in the dungeon are a group of experts who are very good at destroying and destroying
As far as offensive spells are concerned, their research far exceeds that of their natural enemies, the tower clan. The only difference is that dungeons that focus on explosive power lack the ability to sustain combat.
In short, Liu Yifei learned from the various videos on the forum and the numerous chaotic discussion posts that it was an extremely terrifying raid.
Huge meteorites falling from the distant sky are as numerous as a meteor shower
The huge impact and scorching firepower almost swallowed up the entire royal capital at once.
And the various lightning, flames, and ice-cold currents that followed brought the fate of destruction to the ancient Tower Clan King's Capital.
Anyway, from the chaotic video, Liu Yifei could not describe the scene at that time. It is not an exaggeration to say that it was the end of the world.
The ancient royal capital no longer has the peace and tranquility of the past. Giant dragons are flying in the sky, casting shadows like a dark cloud that is about to overwhelm the city.
The tall giant ran around the city, saving the royal capital from complete destruction time and time again.
Various anti-aircraft ballistas and war machines opened fire together.
It was a shocking scene, a world where all demons danced wildly~
The war lasted for three full days
In the end, this ancient royal capital still could not escape the fate of being destroyed, and the first round of the head-on contest between the Tower Clan and the Dungeon Camp also ended with a resounding victory for the Dungeon Faction.
Steele, the country of mercury, the capital was destroyed and the whole country fell into a turbulent crisis.
Of course.
It’s not that if a country is conquered, it will be considered dead. This is pure nonsense.
In this regard, the system's setup seems quite restrictive.
What the capital represents is only the existence image of a country and the standard of the country's highest-level city.
In addition, the national capital can also bring a powerful amplification effect to the entire country's territory, which is somewhat similar to the effect of the racial holy city within the territory.
When a country is destroyed, while canceling the special growth effect it brings, it will also cause all NPC mercenaries in the country to have a debuff that greatly reduces the morale. For mercenaries, this is a very bad situation, which means
Next, their defensive battle will be even more difficult.
However, complete annihilation of a country requires the elimination of all "legitimate heirs" of the country and the occupation of more than half of the country's territory.
For example, if it is the Kingdom of Solna, it is not enough to kill King Solna. Toradre, who is legally qualified to inherit, must also be killed, and then more than half of the territory must be destroyed, so that the Kingdom of Solna can be destroyed.
The system determines the delisting.
It is not known whether the Dungeon killed all Liu Yifei, the legitimate heirs of Steel, in the previous annihilation battle of the Royal Capital. However, it is conceivable that if the Dungeon really wants to completely destroy the Kingdom of Mercury, then it will definitely be killed in the subsequent battle.
In the process, we must continue to increase the offensive pace and occupy at least half of the land in Stir.
As for the other two countries in the Tower Clan, if their heads are not dizzy, they will definitely not let the underground city succeed in killing their compatriots.
No matter what complex and inexplicable relationships there are between the various countries within a race, as long as it involves the invasion of foreign races, their reactions should be the same. At least they did not see the great rivers and mountains falling into the sworn enemy camp of the underground city in vain.
The truth in hand...
"Are you watching the video about the battle in the dungeon and the Tower Clan again? You have become more and more leisurely recently, and you don't even want to help with the affairs in the city when you are free. You are such a leisurely person as a hands-off shopkeeper.
~"
Liu Yifei was sitting quietly in the conference hall, using the large screen attached to the functional building to look through several new and exciting battle videos on the forum. Suddenly, a cold voice came from the direction of the door. Liu Yifei turned around and looked~
Ha~
Xuelan, Little Assassin, Huangquan, Tower Shield...
He's quite a complete person.
What just happened was Xue Lan, the well-deserved “housekeeper” in the territory of Plague City~
In fact, there are very few people in the entire territory who can speak to Liu Yifei in such a completely unceremonious tone. Except for the people around him, outsiders still respect and fear him as the "first perverted lord of the ghost clan".
.
And people who know Liu Yifei tend to treat him more seriously, and they won't use such an almost complaining tone.
Everyone selectively ignored Xue Lan’s question~
After all, Xue Lan's own strength is amazing, she has close personal relationships with everyone, and she is the most powerful deputy lord and "housekeeper" under Liu Yifei. Even if she whips Liu Yifei directly, others can only stand far away.
Watching a show from a distance, you would never dare to step forward to break up a fight~
"Oh~ haha, Xuelan? Well... I have indeed had a little more free time recently, but I am not lazy. The war situation over there in the tower is complicated and involves a lot of inside stories. Although it is far away from us,
Far away, but paying more attention is never a bad thing.”
Liu Yifei greeted everyone, and then explained to Xue Lan, who seemed to be resentful.
Xue Lan's depression is not unreasonable~
To put it bluntly, this plague city and all the areas under his control are Liu Yifei's "private property."
It's just that since he assigned all his rights to others, he has really become a hands-off shopkeeper. He spends his days either practicing leveling or delving into various things that seem inexplicable to outsiders and have no clue at all.
With the complete opening of the plague city's teleportation authority, after nearly a month of preparation, there is now a situation where the flow of people is overwhelming. Players who use this to enter the Mountains of Sighs every day are like scales crossing the river, even in the city.
With a permanent population of tens of thousands of players, it can be regarded as the number one player city in the entire game.
As Plague City becomes more and more prosperous, there are more and more players and more immigrants, and the daily chores it needs to deal with also increase dramatically.
At present, several people in charge of internal affairs are very busy every day, especially Xue Lan. As the first deputy lord under Liu Yifei, she has a lot of things to manage, and she can only spare less than half of her time to practice hard every day.
However, Liu Yifei's free experience has been distributed long ago, which has caused Xue Lan's leveling progress to be slowed down a lot. It is understandable that she would complain~
"Oh? What do you mean? Do you actually know the inside story of a place so far away from the tower?"
Ta Dun and Liu Yifei are already very close, and Xue Lan never sees each other every day, so they don't bother to pay more attention to the various scandal-like things between them. In fact, at the moment, Star Wars
Internally, there are people in Plague City and even on the forums of the entire ghost clan discussing the "possibility" of the union between Liu Yun and Xue Lan.
As the saying goes, "People are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong." I'm afraid there's no one in the entire game who can compare with Liu Yifei in terms of fame~
The word "Liu Yun" is inevitably mixed up with some gossips and various other things. Xue Lan is indeed very beautiful, and is often mentioned on the forum as Liu Yun's partner and "housekeeper".
Various exposures of people.
As time goes by, it is inevitable that outsiders will connect it.
Particularly funny is Huangquan
Someone actually said that even Huang Quan had a hand in it. The private life of the Lord of Plague City is basically a complicated triangle, which makes people laugh hard~
Tadun was already very familiar with them. He couldn't say what happened to Liu Yifei and Xue Lan. He just felt that these two people seemed to be more than ordinary, but they didn't seem to have anything to do with each other in the game.
But that’s pure nonsense~
This girl actually liked the movie
At first, Tower Shield definitely didn't believe it, but for a while, the Demon Concubine of the Star and the Soul Chasing Arrow of the Star both came to him to complain, saying that he should talk to Liu Yun and let him take charge of his subordinate "Yu Huangquan"
At that time, Ta Duncai, it turns out that you actually like to tease girls
This made him feel like he was breaking out in a cold sweat, and at the same time he was furious at all the rumors on the Internet~
But right now, he is no longer interested in those gossips. He is more interested in the fact that Liu Yifei can actually see the inside story from these battle report videos.
In fact, Tadun really admires Liu Yifei on this point~
Because since he met Liu Yifei, it seems that this guy is very good at digging out all kinds of unknown inside stories.
To be honest, many times he really wanted to open Liu Yifei's mind and see how many unknown secrets he contained there.
But Tadun's unconscious casual question made Liu Yifei stunned.
In an instant, the figure of the legendary "Dragon Queen" and her life story flashed through Liu Yifei's mind one by one~
Powerful, violent, greedy for power, controlling the dragon clan, ambitious
In addition, after the system upgrade, as soon as her figure appeared in the official promotional animation, the dungeon immediately began to invade the tower clan, and a large number of dragons appeared in the army...
Liu Yifei couldn't help but think of things in the most unlikely direction...
After reacting, Liu Yifei couldn't help but shook his head slightly, but smiled and said to Ta Dun, haha, it's hard to say, right now it's just a rough guess, and there is no actual basis at all. For more details, we have to look at the situation later.
."
Ta Dun originally just asked casually, not really intending to find out the inside story from Liu Yifei.
After all, these secrets are, to put it bluntly, the business secrets of professional players. Although Liu Yifei is not a professional player, Tower Shield is a person who understands the rules, so it is just a joke.
But he didn't expect Liu Yifei to say it so solemnly, which actually made Ta Dun feel concerned.
He already knew Liu Yifei well. With his performance like this, I'm afraid he really had an incredible inside story. It was just because he didn't have any further evidence~
But......
In the past, Liu Yifei could always tell the truth about the tower shield and still convinced him.
After all, he has extensive experience and knowledge, and he has participated in various famous system incidents, so as a party involved, it is understandable to know more about the inside story~
But this time...
The battlefield of the Tower Clan is no less than 108,000 miles away from the Plague City. Liu Yifei sits in the Plague City every day and obediently reads various information on the forum like everyone else~
This information is all public, and it is not said that Liu Yifei has a secret channel to understand the matter, but how can he see the "insider story" that no one else has?
Isn’t this too damned???
The tower shield was still depressed and confused about this matter. Xue Lan, who had just sat down, said to Liu Yifei again:
"It's getting late. The territory chosen by Robert and the others will be upgraded soon. You should come forward today, right? Lord Robert is very worried about your whereabouts.
Although I have promised that our Plague City will send heavy troops to fight, it is obvious that he is still more concerned about whether you will have any problems. After all, you are his safety guarantee. He has to leave today anyway, right?"
"Oh? Robert's territory is full of buildings so quickly? It seems that the investment must be quite large. No wonder they are so anxious...
Okay~ Since we have agreed to this a long time ago, let’s all go for a walk today if nothing is wrong.
The scale of the monster siege battle when the town is upgraded to a first-level small city is very spectacular. Everyone who is interested can join in the fun. When the time comes, those who have a lot of experience and are not afraid of death can go for a spin."
As if he suddenly remembered something interesting, Liu Yifei stood up and said hello, and then was the first to walk towards the exit of the conference hall.
Today is a particularly important day for players in the entire gaming world...
