Chapter 38

Shadow of the Dragon Queen

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.
