Qil'Aza and the accompanying great elementalists, under the cover of Malphite, finally succeeded in breaking out of the siege.
During this process, two unlucky guys were hit by the ground surge and were infected by the void on the spot. Finally, Qil'Aza put an end to their pain. The others suffered more or less magic overdrafts after escaping.
In such a state, they all looked pale and looked like tuberculosis ghosts.
There are less than a hundred Great Elementalists in the entire Ixtar. Losing two here can be considered a very heavy price - and all the Great Elementalists who were lucky enough to escape actually knew in their hearts that if they hadn't
If Malphite takes action, the entire team may not be able to come back completely.
In this way, when the expedition team returned to the Ixtal camp and recounted their experiences in detail, the Ixtal people, who had suffered from the pain, finally became completely serious.
The experiences of the Great Elementalists finally made them realize that closing the void rift is not a political issue, but a real war. The void rift, like the original axiom, is objective and does not depend on the Ixtal people.
It is foolish to adopt political means if one's will is diverted, to think of superiority or to consider the outcome of the battle before the rift has been healed.
Of course, it's not that there are no fools who think that "Qil'Aza is too weak" that led to the collapse of this team, but those who can become a big element and have the right to speak are very few. They
That insignificant opinion was not enough to change the direction of Ixtar's situation.
Don't rush in!
We must start from the periphery steadily and clean up the void creatures bit by bit until the void rift is completely closed!
Having corrected their attitude, the Ixtalians quickly came up with a battle plan that was completely prudent even in Kalya's eyes.
In the battle plan, the Ixtal people will launch a cleanup of the void worms from both the air and the ground.
Obtaining air superiority is a prerequisite for cleanup.
Although void bugs may metamorphose into wings at any time and transform from free-range chickens into flying mantises, this requires a process, so the void bugs that can already fly must be suppressed first to prevent them from further evolution.
In the battle plan, the aerial part is mainly responsible for the elemental dragons and elemental dragons gathered by the Ixtal people - although Ixtal failed to completely inherit the dragon covenant from the Shuriman Empire.
The elemental dragon can only be controlled by raising it to a limited extent, but even according to the incomplete dragon covenant, if the enemy is Void, they can still mobilize the elemental dragon even if there is no breeding relationship.
Once the void bugs in the air are suppressed, the cleanup on the ground can begin.
According to the previous experience of Qil'Aza and his team, the effect of the directly effective original axioms will be greatly reduced when facing void insects, so the combat methods that the elementalists were accustomed to must be changed.
There is no need to cast spells directly on the Void Worms. It is better to deal with the elemental creations first, and then cast spells on these elemental creations to cause indirect damage to the Void Worms.
Moreover, because the number of void bugs is so astonishing and the types are countless, if you want to clean them up more efficiently, you have to use a wide range of AOE spells.
The void worms themselves have long legs and can run. If you want to achieve better results with large-scale spells, it is best to surround and divide the void worms.
Therefore, following this idea, the ground attack plan proposed by Ixtal was to first send elites, cooperate with the Malphite network, to break into the void insect gathering place, build an encirclement position, and then send elemental envoys to attack them.
The dense void insects carried out spell bombardment.
It is a very sound and reliable plan. When implemented, it even sounds a bit like pumping water to a fish pond - first build a dam in the fish pond, divide the fish pond into small pieces, and then release water one by one for fishing.
The biggest advantage of doing this is that it can prevent void bugs from running everywhere during the battle, and except for the early elites and Malphite who broke into the formation and the final spell bombing, most of the time the Ixtal people
They are all taking a defensive stance, and the pressure of fighting is less.
Of course, this plan is not without its problems.
The size of the encirclement must be carefully controlled, not too big or too small, and ways must be found to avoid the destructive damage caused by the ground surge, lest the newly constructed circle be completely destroyed by the ground surge and lose the money.
The lady lost her troops again.
Therefore, on the basis of this plan, Kalya also added a little bit of luring the enemy, first pretending to send people to raid the core of the void rift, "cheating" all the earth surges out, and then encircling and dividing them, and then annihilating them.
In addition, the Icathian Guards will also take action when building an encirclement position and withdraw from the battle in time to prevent void creatures from producing targeted evolutionary results. Although the eternal flames in their hands may be the natural enemies of void creatures, the Icathian Guards
’s fighting style is far from impeccable.
In this way, with the unanimous consent of Qiyana and Kiran, the [Insecticide Plan] for the debridement surgery was finally officially launched. As Qiyana, as Queen Ixtal, activated the ancient giant
After the Dragon Covenant, in the next two days, elemental dragons and elemental dragons were summoned by the covenant one after another and arrived at the outer areas of the void rift.
At the beginning, these elemental dragons and elemental sub-dragons were still a little restless, but after Kalya took action, summoned an ancient dragon to appear, and simply controlled him, the originally noisy elemental dragons and elemental sub-dragons
Long soon became completely at ease.
This can be considered an unexpected surprise.
Originally, Kalya wanted to ask an unlucky ancient dragon to take care of it himself - although dragons are strong, they are still beasts, and unless they reach the stage of the ancient dragon, they will only succumb to power.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But what I didn't expect was that the ancient dragon called by Kalya... knew Kalya.
Even if Kalya didn't know him, even if he was not an ancient dragon when he last saw Kalya, just an ordinary mountain dragon, as a "young talent" of the dragon clan, he was lucky enough to meet Kalya.
Afterwards, he was quite impressed by this ascended person.
Although Kalya is completely different from the past, because his past image was a bit special, after confirming that the caller of the covenant was Kalya, this ancient dragon cooperated quite well with the other elemental dragons and elemental dragons.
Whoever Yalong dared to rant, he would directly summon Stone Claw to lock him or her in a cage. The originally noisy group of dragons soon became more orderly.
Qiyana was so envious after seeing this scene.
Qiyana, who has her own private dragon farm, also likes these big babies with elemental bloodlines, but obviously, let alone ancient dragons, even elemental dragons will not buy her account. Only those who are
Only the elemental dragons that always live in her dragon farm are so "close" to her.
Sure enough, Ixtar's Elemental Queen is not enough!
……………………
At the coalition camp, elemental dragons began to gather in large numbers, so much so that Qiyana had to arrange for a separate manpower to deal with the dragon dung.
And in the void rift, Malzahar did not stop.
In his opinion, although the number of coalition forces is large, but with the anti-original axiom void insects, their frontal combat effectiveness is only so much - my insect swarm is endless, and it will consume you to death!
The real trouble is those large deformed puppets. Since void creatures have very obvious "weak inorganic" characteristics, such large puppets can only be solved by brute force.
It just so happens that the void worms that Malzahar has specially bred have always been against the direction of the original axioms. He has not bothered to increase the size at all. Now he has to make up his mind, and the only way is to directly summon those large void worms.
.
However, when summoning void insects from the void land, the larger they are and the more void energy they contain in their bodies, the more difficult it is to summon them. In addition, this void rift is not big. If you want to summon a large void insect once and for all,
Volumetric void worms are not simple either.
After thinking about it, Malzahar's only solution was to take a roundabout way - is there a kind of void insect that is average in strength and not too big, but can grow rapidly as long as the environment is suitable?
Hey, what a coincidence, there really is!
As far as Malzahar knows, there is a kind of void insect that can grow rapidly by swallowing it.
The ignorant people of Runeterra call it the Terror of the Void.
And their unlimited growth ability does indeed live up to the name of fear!
As long as he summons a group of void fears, and then lets them devour them without restraint, he will soon have the means to deal with those deformed puppets!
The only problem is that at this critical juncture, after Malzahar is successfully summoned, it is difficult to take them out to eat in a short period of time. If they are allowed to evolve by devouring void creatures, they may suffer from malnutrition...
…
Just when Malzahar was struggling, the elemental dragon and elemental dragon began to gather together.
After receiving the news, Malzahar was not surprised but overjoyed.
Elemental dragon and elemental dragon, those are great things!
Great supplement!
As long as a few elemental dragons are swallowed, these void terrors will quickly grow into giants that are unmatched on the frontal battlefield!
Therefore, without any further hesitation, he summoned a group of Void Terrors on the spot and began to mobilize a large number of troops, preparing to deal a ruthless blow to the elemental dragons and elemental dragons.
Are you the only one who is a semi-elemental creature?
……………………
According to the combat plan, when the number of elemental dragons and elemental dragons reached the basic requirements, the air battle officially began.
As the dragon officially took off to join the battle, the army of void flying insects that originally covered the sky like black mist soon suffered heavy losses.
Air combat has always been the weak link of void creatures - for these void bugs who came from another world and only got their bodies in Runeterra, flying is a very difficult thing.
As we all know, the evolution of void worms requires devouring. Compared with creatures that move on land, it is undoubtedly much more difficult to devour flying creatures. Without sufficient samples, the flight evolution path of void worms can only be determined by
To describe it, it’s crooked.
To sum it up, it can fly, but that’s all it can do.
In front of the dragon clan that can use elements to assist flight, the void insects, whose flying ability is similar to that of a pheasant, really have no good countermeasures. At most, they rely on their absolute advantage in numbers to swarm up and hang themselves on the gaps in the dragon scales.
Or simply self-destruct to achieve that pitiful lethality.
Even though there was an absolute advantage of at least four orders of magnitude in terms of numbers, the situation in the air battle was one-sided in the opposite direction. The elemental dragons and elemental dragons that swooped down after spreading their wings could no longer be described as a simple tiger rushing into a flock of sheep—
- If I had to use a metaphor, it was more like a group of whales with their huge mouths open, filtering and feeding on insignificant plankton without restraint.
After almost every elemental dragon swoops by, a bright gap will open in the dark sky that was originally obscured by the void bugs.
Just one day later, the "insect cover" covering the air around the void rift has become much sparser visibly to the naked eye.
If this continues, within a few days, the void insects with the ability to fly will turn into stragglers, and the ground troops will not only be able to advance smoothly, but they can even call for air support from their own side!
Of course, after achieving such brilliant results, the Dragon Legion did not suffer any losses.
By relying on the ants to kill the elephant, three unlucky elemental dragons and one elemental dragon fell on the spot, with no bones left - compared with the results of the battle, this loss can only be regarded as minimal.
It's a pity that this extremely smooth battle only lasted for one day.
Starting from the second day, the void bugs on the ground began to take the initiative in attacking the air - they would take advantage of the elemental dragon to dive and spray venom or corrosive void plasma into the sky, even if they accidentally hurt friendly forces.
Caught off guard, seven or eight giant dragons flying close to the ground fell out of balance in the air in one encounter.
After discovering something was wrong, the dragons chose to increase the "safe height" of their dive to avoid being attacked by ground fire.
Facts have proved that raising the flying altitude is a good self-protection measure, but the price of doing so is that the speed at which the dragons clear out the flying insects in the void is visibly reduced.
When they are unable to dive close to the ground, they even need to breathe to increase their damage. The originally easy battle quickly becomes difficult.
Fortunately, even if the efficiency has decreased, the number and density of void flying insects are still steadily declining. Apart from spraying venom and plasma on the ground, void insects have no more countermeasures.
Therefore, after six days, the density of insect cover covering the void rift finally dropped to the point where it no longer affected the troops' ability to penetrate deeper.
After flying around in the air on the elemental dragon and confirming that the information was correct, Qiyana and Kieran finally began to mobilize their elite troops to start building a protrusion in the northeast corner of the void rift.
The operation to pump water around the lake has officially begun.
