The Oran Empire is an undisputed big country. Their Royal Guards, the White Wolf Royal Guards, are undisputed third-level elite light cavalry. The silver-level cavalry regiments of the three legions charge together and are unstoppable. Well, this is not about getting gold.
In the underground world of being a cannon fodder, at least the small countries bordering on him are absolutely unable to resist it.
Compared with immortal species, humans are absolutely inferior in individual combat power, but humans are originally a race that relies on tools and foreign objects to win (the White Wolf Royal Guard can only reach the Silver level with equipment and mounts). The so-called big country is
Agriculture, industry, alchemy, magic, animal husbandry, and talent training are superior in all aspects, so that you can support more powerful arms and military strength.
For example, the armor of the White Wolf Guard is made of Misilol mithril alloy. Not to mention the design of the light cavalry armor, the alloy formula used as the raw material is a first-level secret of the Oran Empire. The Misilol Tyrannosaurus they configured
Spears, violent throwing spears, and violent swords are all extremely high-quality alchemy tools. As for their special horse, it is a super-bred war horse that has been bred by mixed blood for many generations. It is said that this kind of war horse is a carnivore.
This luxurious equipment literally allows a bronze-level knight to skyrocket to a silver-level combat power (human). Coupled with the absolute advantage in numbers and tactics, it becomes even more powerful.
Not only special forces, but all human arms are extremely dependent on equipment. For example, if a former farmer who has only received one year of militia training is given a dragon gun, he will become a first-level lower-level spearman. If he has received two years of shooting training,
, he is given a magic repeating crossbow, and he becomes a mid-level repeating crossbow shooter.
And if it has undergone more than five years of rigorous training, equipped with fully armed alchemical heavy armor, and alchemical potions that increase strength, it will become a second-level low-level heavy-armored fanatical warrior. And if it is a gryphon that has been cultivated since childhood, the raptor will grow to the point where it can be ridden.
Okay. Then the third-level military unit, the Griffin Knight, was born. Of course, this is basically an expensive military unit that only nobles can afford the food expenses of the griffins.
However, due to over-reliance on external objects, their own fragility is inevitable. The White Wolf Guard is only a bronze-level infantry when dismounted. At this time, cooperation and organization are needed. Human beings are also extremely famous in the art of war.
The coordination of arms to maximize strengths and avoid weaknesses is a must for every commander.
The inheritance and innovation of technology and culture, the continuous development of new arms and equipment, coupled with the fact that human beings grow at the fastest rate among all races, and are never afraid of fighting a war of attrition. This is why humans have neither longevity nor racial talents.
The fundamental reason why he can become the overlord of this world.
For example, elves are indeed strong. It is common for people to reach adulthood to be older than Silver, but it takes two hundred years to reach adulthood... enough for humans to give birth to four or five generations. And the only alien species among the elves, the dark elves, are also very fertile, but they fight among themselves.
It is also the most intense one. However, in a hellish place like the underground, if we do not eliminate them ruthlessly, no matter how many resources we have, they may still not be enough.
Therefore, in the eyes of other races, humans only have one advantage - the ability to give birth, but this advantage is enough.
It is true that my fake gold may not be able to defeat the true gold level of your elves with bloodline bonus, but if I exchange ten of them for you, it will not be a loss. I will make up for it after death. As long as the equipment can keep up, it will be less than ten years.
Just restore your strength. Your elf will have to wait 200 years for a new generation to mature. Can you afford it?
And as long as the population base is enough, peerless geniuses will naturally appear. At least, as far as I know, there will be a few demigod-level old guys in every top empire.
But the human kingdom is not invulnerable. In the future underground invasion, facing the underground coalition forces whose absolute strength and war skills are not inferior to their own, the human kingdom will also experience the shortcomings of lack of top combat power.
Therefore, demand promoted new progress, and they once again ushered in a period of rapid development of machinery, alchemy, and magic. The strange fifth-level weapon, the Magic Mechanical Dragon, was the crystallization of the new magic mechanics and magic array science.
Okay, let’s not talk about the headache in the future. I still have a headache now.
A big tree attracts the wind. Historically, the Oran Empire also demonstrated the meaning of this word with practical actions. Whether it was the invading underground coalition or the undead natural disaster, they all regarded it as the primary target without hesitation.
Is it better to enjoy the shade under a big tree? No, according to international rules, at the call of the sovereign country, the subordinate country must go to the battlefield. In addition, it will be commanded and deployed by the sovereign country, and it is almost certain to serve as cannon fodder. And when I think of the cruel war that will follow
, the smaller the country, the weaker its foundation and the easier it is to collapse, so I will never watch the Donglan Principality become a subordinate country of the Oran Empire.
But as I heard before, if you refuse directly, I am afraid it will also cause a war. The dilemma is really difficult to choose.
"If it's hard to choose, don't choose it. Just find a way to turn it into a farce. As long as this subordinate alliance fails, and it drags on for a few years, the situation will have completely changed. Of course, if I don't take revenge, I can't swallow this breath."
Even with that said, there is still no clue as to how to proceed.
It takes four ounces of strength to move a thousand pounds. Compared with the giant Oran Empire, I may not have even one pound of strength in my hands.
"When I first arrived, I was completely in the dark. I had insufficient intelligence and connections, so I couldn't formulate a reliable plan of action. But since the succession ceremony was still more than three months away, my first priority was to infiltrate the upper echelons and collect intelligence.
Let’s have a goal.”
That's why I'm at the entrance to this dirty underground sewer right now.
"It stinks. Even if you have to do a mission to please that count, there is no need to accept this kind of mission."
The former Banshee King and current Slime Queen covered her nose and complained to me with a look of disgust on her face.
"Look, your kind." I pointed to the smelly sewer culvert, where a quagmire slime was struggling, and its body was full of unpleasant filth.
He glanced at it and was so disgusted that Heloise turned into a black cat and pounced on it.
"I am the Great Banshee Queen! The All-Knower of the Mysteries of Magic. Not a dirty slime."
One scratch, two bites and three flicks of the tail, a skillful feline skill, but when used by the little black cat, it was more of an attack than a show of cuteness, but I didn’t ignore it like before, because the current Heloise’s tearing
The bite attack is indeed quite powerful.
[Freezing air: a silent and deadly cold air. It can be attached to guns and weapons. It can also be struck out with ice magic. The person touched will slow down any action by 1% and suffer 1 point per second.
Freezing damage, this ability can be superimposed. If the deceleration effect exceeds 20%, you will suffer from freezing, rigid thinking and other negative effects. If the deceleration effect exceeds 50%, you may die suddenly from hypothermia at any time]
In a sense, the magic pet of the mage is his own clone. The spells such as ghoul's touch and lich's touch can only be released by the mage at close range, but they can also be released through the magic pet. But I never thought that this The biggest beneficiary of the passive ability called "Freezing Air" is actually Heloise.
Incarnated as a cat or a bat, she has a small target, quick attacks, and extremely stealthy sneak attacks. The other side of her low damage from her minions is that it is extremely difficult to attract the attention of the person being attacked. If she were to apply dozens of layers of freezing energy, she would probably be gone. Death is not far away.
Okay, but it's meaningless in front of me who already knows this trick.
I just stepped lightly, turned and pinched, and pinched the cat's biggest weakness, the back of the neck, and then swung it twice, and finally got a dead cat with stars in its eyes.
"Hmph, you're still a little green to fight with me."
I smiled triumphantly. Although I had not upgraded recently due to the increasingly outrageous experience penalty, and I was reluctant to throw my precious skill points into some cheating ice system, I faced the Holy Light and the Law on the road. The strong tutoring has greatly increased my combat power.
What has grown more rapidly, unexpectedly, is swordsmanship and hand-to-hand combat skills. This should have been the specialty of warriors. After all, they lack the blessing of supernatural abilities. But for me, learning swordsmanship is like reliving the world. Memories of the past can be learned without deliberate effort.
This spin, a pinch, seems simple, but in fact it contains a wonderful footwork and a secret of swordsmanship. The two are combined into one, clean and neat. It is simply handsome. If it is placed outside, it will definitely attract the attention of those who know the difference. The admiration and the screams of beautiful women, why am I so handsome!
"Luo Lan! Can you be more outrageous? Others are fighting, but you are teasing the cat!"
Momo, with a long sword like the wind, was chasing and slashing at a group of rat men who had made their home in the underground tunnel. Judging from their red appearance, they must have attacked passers-by before.
Okay, although Mastiff is good-looking and can barely be considered a beauty, it is obvious that the aesthetic sense of dark elves is not worthy of trust.
So, I turned my attention to Kollos.
"My Lord Envoy, even if you are the executor of my lord's will, such lazy behavior will bring shame to my lord. Please fight seriously."
The wild elf Kolos waved a huge vine staff that was taller than her. Thunderstorms flashed in the dark underground tunnel again and again, causing screams. Due to the lack of firepower in our line and the obvious surplus of legal professions, She used her skills as a storm druid to act as output.
The thunder summoning technique can be used underground. Although the power is obviously reduced, it has subverted the common sense of ordinary druids, which is enough to prove her amazing attainments and talents in thunderstorm control.
[Koros. Eintan, gender: Kolos, race: wild elf, profession: level 60 druid/level 12 storm archdruid/level 20 judge/level 3 storm judge (self-created by Koros Legendary occupation), total level 95, comprehensive level 83, soul emblem: Stormbringer, comprehensive evaluation: legendary priest occupation. System evaluation: thighs worth relying on, and beautiful legs. As for the gender of Kolos, she is too old. Well, I won’t vomit. By the way, the male drowning spring will be added to the recent lottery, so try your best and remember to please the beauty.】
Although my handwritten letter and Diana’s testimony did convince her that I was the messenger of the Sleepless Ones, for some reason, she always made very strict demands on me: “You can’t do this” and “You must be strict with yourself.
It would be too disgraceful to my Lord's image to be idle all day long." It was as if I had disgraced her god.
"Huh, you've been humiliating the Sleepless Man all day long, and you've been very reliable because of me before?" Well, polluting the true God that the priest believes in is equivalent to throwing away the white gloves in a life-and-death duel. I won't say this to his face.
Well, although this one can't be considered a "beautiful girl", judging from the glares from other people, I accidentally made people angry, so I'd better do things with my tail between my legs.
"Where is the gem?"
This mission is a bit strange. The powerful earl obviously has many powerful men under his command, but he entrusted outsiders like us to find his lost family heirloom.
"This guiding light is obviously undead magic. Finding souls is almost the same as finding corpses. How can we find treasures? Haha. It seems that I have seen the truth of the matter."
After biting my finger hard in retaliation, Heloise jumped on my shoulders and sat higher, at least away from the unpleasant smell of the filth.
I also find it strange that the earl gave us a guiding light filled with magic, saying that if we follow it we can find gems, but from my perception, it is obviously the undead magic flesh and blood guide. It tracks flesh and blood through flesh and blood samples.
The owner or his missing limbs use necromancy magic. If the human earl has a necromancer under his command, it would be a shame. Could it be that the gem we are looking for is a part of someone's body?
"Okay, right in front."
From the battlefield that everyone had cleaned up, I walked over with a guiding light, and finally stopped in a cauldron left by the rat man.
Judging from the way the pilot light was flashing more and more rapidly, the gem we were looking for should be in this pot. So, I picked up a long spoon and fished out a few handfuls. The human fingers and ears I fished out from the previous few handfuls came.
Look, this is really the offal soup of the rat people.
But then, I caught my target - Baoyu.
"It turns out that Baoyu is an egg."
Well, Bulldog has already explained it frankly. What is in front of him is a part of the male organ, commonly known as the egg. It has been cooked and looks like... Well, I am so disgusted that I can't describe it.
"Haha, there is only one truth! That unlucky earl must have been playing around outside casually, and then his original wife stabbed him severely down below, and then threw her into the sewer. Haha, he was really cruel, I kind of want to see him
That countess."
Inexplicably, listening to Heloise's malicious explanation and her malicious eyes, a chill came up in my chest.
"No, that was not a stab wound, but a crushing injury. Judging from the wound, there should be no perpetrator in this case. It should just be that when the fat earl went to the toilet, he accidentally placed the penis between the toilet seat and the toilet, and then...
Sit down carefully. There was a loud click! Then you fell into the sewer." (There are real cases on the Internet)
"You see, that count is too fat and has difficulty moving. The edge of the metal toilet seat is quite sharp, so once he presses down, it will snap and crack..."
Should he be said to be a professional judge in judging cases? At the end of the sentence, Kolos clapped his hands together and made a squeezing motion, making an onomatopoeia of "click, click", but...
"Why are you covering your lower body? Is my reasoning wrong?"
"No, everyone just feels that it hurts a little bit."
Well, there is no doubt that the actions of the men covering their lower bodies are the instinct of men to empathize with others. However, this speechless result has proved that today is destined to be a farce that makes people physically and mentally exhausted.
"Why can't I meet some normal people? Even if the team is unreliable, even the client is unreliable?" I asked Qingtian speechlessly, but I was destined to have no answer.
"Do you want to take this back? It's disgusting. Momo don't touch it."
"We should ask the priest to help with regeneration, otherwise he won't pay us. Who will take it?"
Obviously, no one wanted to touch this thing, and just as we were trying to avoid it, there was a loud "bang" and the entire underground tunnel was shaking.
"The large army of rat men is coming. They have always been a kind of vengeful life."
Green took a step forward silently, but there was a rare pride in his tone. The trap he had set alone had worked.
But there was a cold sweat breaking out on my head. Judging from the stones falling from the ceiling, this guy seemed to have used a lot of explosives.
"Green, you are not planting explosives according to the standards of the underground world, are you? This is a man-made sewer, but it is not as strong as the rock walls of the underground world. How many have you buried..."
Well, no need to ask, Green showed what would happen next by turning around and running away.
"Boom!" A series of explosions and the collapse of the entire underground waterway showed that he not only buried explosives, but also buried a lot.
"Damn it! Can't you just be normal?"
While trying to escape for my life, I thought of Kross who had just calmly explained her reasoning, and of this explosive prince. I once again regretted the name "The Alliance of Absolute Gentlemen".
"Kolos whose gender is Kolos, the Green Prince who never sees his face all day long but plays with explosives mysteriously, Sad Wind. Well, there is no need to add a prefix at all. The name Sad Wind is the best adjective for metamorphosis.
, Casio who is getting better and better with Beifeng (although it seems normal for the time being, being good with Beifeng itself is probably the biggest problem), the fierce dog of Shotacon, the dark elf who pursues the way of Holy Light and the way of law,
Two soy sauce gays (two people: we are not gay, we only love Chloe), there is really no normal person, I have decided. If I don’t die this time, I will find two normal teammates when I go out
!”
"You forgot to count yourself, crazy old monster."
"Well, thank you for reminding me, you pretentious old witch!"
"I told you not to call me that! I bit you, I really did."
"You've already bitten me, bastard, don't give me super cold air!"
"Apologize!"
"no way!"
"Then let's see how it works!"
"You know how to add freezing air to slow down, but I can't? Let's see what happens."
After everyone escaped from the sewer pipe, they were surprised to find that not far from the mouth of the pipe, a man and a cat were having a "fierce" hand-to-hand fight. They were moving at a turtle speed while dragging each other back, and the entire sewer was already crumbling.
, it may completely collapse at any time.
"Luo Lan! Stop teasing the cat at this time!"
"I didn't tease the cat!"
"We're fighting!"
Well, before everyone had time to be surprised that the little black cat could actually talk, the sewer finally collapsed, and even at the moment when the rocks fell, the two people could still be heard arguing.
"It's all because of you old witch! You won't have any milk to drink tomorrow!"
"Hmph, I have to wait until tomorrow. If I can drag you into the water, my life will be worth it! Even after falling into hell, I will wake up with a smile."
"Boom"
When countless rocks fell and everything in front of them was completely reduced to ruins, everyone was shocked. Who is this person? He can actually risk his life to fight with a cat.
"Oh, I almost died!"
"Don't worry, the scourge will live for thousands of years. With your scourge ability, even if the world ends, you won't die. Look at my Cat God's Catch!"
Okay, it's too early to say this. A human head poked out from the ruins. At this time, he was stuck, but he was still biting and fighting with his cat with his teeth. While fighting, he was sarcastic to each other.
But obviously, now that he was stuck, he couldn't beat the cat. Seeing that his face was covered with scratches, he began to surrender to the cat and beg for mercy without hesitation.
"Triple milk tomorrow."
"Milk bath. I want the best one! Meow, I want a tub."
"make a deal!"
Well, looking at the one person and one cat who quickly reached an agreement, I didn’t mention the expressions of the others who dug out their captain, and thought in their hearts whether they should quit the group as soon as possible before being dragged to death by this living treasure, but soon
, they unexpectedly discovered that Captain Luo Lan still held that disgusting spoon in his hand.
"You're not going to receive the reward, are you? It's cooked once, crushed again, and it's all scorched. It's better to throw it away."
"Yes, if you send something like this, even a gold-level priest may not be able to survive. Be careful that the earl will become angry."
But I shook my head. I had already figured out why the count entrusted me with a foreign mercenary group.
"Diana and Kross went to hand in the mission with me. Someone under this guy entrusted us with it, and he made it clear that he would throw it away after using it, and then kill him and silence him. Just in time, when he turned his back, we captured him and used this
By using this as a threat, you can successfully control the earl and take over the connections in the earl's palace."
"You say yes, but if you touch me with this spoon, I will fight you tooth and nail!"
Facing Heloise's complaint, I did not reply. At this time, I was shocked by the system prompts in my eyes.
"Congratulations to the host for successfully activating the epic mission: Lan's Revival!"
A few minutes ago, Kelly and Renee were shocked by the thick envelope they had just opened.
"The complete equipment design of the Aurora Knight? The design of the avalanche defender of the Royal Heavy Armored Infantry Corps? The training method of the Asmu Dog Tamer..."
Bits and pieces, there are more than 30 powerful military units, professional training methods and equipment designs that have been lost. These are the pride of the bloodline of the strong war country in the past, but unfortunately, in Difende
In the battle, the city was destroyed along with it.
"Is this a legacy from the past? Was it preserved by a Donglan person who fled to Oran?"
"No, these are absolute secrets. The number of people who knew about it at that time was definitely not more than single digits. Moreover, look at the design drawing of this armor. We have this one, but this one is slightly different... Incredible! Such a change,
The defense capability has been increased by at least 20%, it is actually an improved model! Who can take such a perfect design one step further? The handwriting on the design drawing is not dry yet, it must have been written not long ago."
[Please accept this small gift, I will visit you soon - Luo Lan]
"Who is Luo Lan?"
"No matter who he is, the Donglan Principality can be saved! As long as we take these back and give us another ten years, we will rise again and become a new northern power!"|
Not to mention the two ecstatic women, at the same time, I had a headache for this epic task that was suddenly activated. I really didn't expect that just on a whim, it actually caused me a huge trouble.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully activating the epic mission: Lan’s Revival.]
[Mission requirements: Solve the crisis of annexation and subordination of the Donglan Principality, and let the far north winter wolf country return again - before the real king of winter wolves, Dasos is nothing.]
[Task reward: Roland’s Holy Sword, which was upgraded to an artifact, and clues to the artifact’s Holy Crown of Thorns—I know you really want to retrieve this artifact that governs the country. 】
[Punishment for mission failure: sissy, I am serious, very serious. If I can’t even save the country this time, I might as well become a sissy.]
"I have a headache. That boy Cavins lost the Holy Crown of Thorns without telling me where he left it, and he asked my brother to find it."
Even though I was complaining, I'm afraid the smile on my lips couldn't hide it from anyone.
"This time, we will definitely not fail." (To be continued...)
