Deep in the thick black mist, Lei Xiao and the powerful men were galloping quickly while always paying attention to everything around them.
As we go deeper and deeper, the scene here becomes more and more shocking.
In addition to more and more ruins and tombstones, you can sometimes see stretches of abandoned fields and dead woods passing by on the left and right sides.
Not only that, but sometimes you can see blood-colored rivers exuding a pungent rancid smell, flowing slowly and thickly, and lined with thick black mist of miasma, making the whole scene like purgatory.
At this scene, even Loris, Xina and others who had been here before frowned tightly, with solemn expressions on their faces.
Even they have never gone deep into this location in the Howling Land. For everyone, everything in front of them is unknown and strange.
Looking at the purgatory-like scene around him, Lei Xiao's brows kept furrowing.
Before setting off, I asked the manager and others that even the cinephile market could not be teleported to the depths of the Howling Land. This place seemed to be a cursed land, in the magic sandbox. Everything above appears as nothingness.
What makes everyone even more uneasy is that the deeper you go into the black mist, the denser the skeleton fortresses become.
At a glance, the tall forest-white cities are looming in the black mist, and you can even see two or even three of them at the same time.
As they approached the fortress, everyone could clearly see the sight of the undead on the walls of the fortress, the skull flags flying everywhere, and the empty eye sockets looking back and forth, staring at me with a half-smile but not a smile. Fang and his party.
Looking up at the densely packed skeleton soldiers, although the group remained silent, they became increasingly nervous.
The number of the opponent's undead army is much larger than we imagined. If we fight on a frontal battlefield, we have absolutely no chance of winning.
This is not only a gap in strength, but also a change in environment. Everyone can clearly feel that the deeper into the black mist, the slower the energy vortex in the body moves. This is undoubtedly It affects the performance of one's own strength to a great extent.
“Your Majesty the Human Race, if the other side chooses to encircle us, then if we go so deep, wouldn’t we run headlong into the other side’s encirclement?”
Feeling the slow surge of energy vortex in his belly, Loris frowned and couldn't help but speak.
"I'm afraid this is an inevitable result."
Lei Xiao nodded calmly and responded: "But the movement of the undead army takes a lot of time, and it is far behind ours. pace, so there is only one thing we have to do, and that is to eliminate the opponent's command center before the opponent's army forms an encirclement."
"Human Majesty. What I said is absolutely true. As long as the leader of the lich and other core lichs can be killed, the leaderless undead army is nothing to be afraid of."
Xina nodded heavily and agreed: "The human race. Your Majesty has defeated the opponent once. In the previous conspiracy, the opponent also lost troops, which has shown that the opponent is not invincible. "
"That's right. Anyway, this time I will fight the Lich to the death!"
When he thought of the other party's insidious and vicious actions, the veins on Loris's lion face were immediately exposed, and something was brewing in his throat again. A low roar filled with murderous intent.
After Loris finished speaking, the group fell into silence again, and no one said anything for a while.
Including Lei Xiao, the three commanders clearly understood that behind the lich, there was an unknown backer hiding in the dark, and that was the real fear of the opponent.
But the current morale of the team is not as high as it was at the beginning, so Lei Xiao and the three of them tacitly did not mention this. They just thought over and over in their hearts everything that might happen and our countermeasures, in order to This will increase your chances of winning, even if it's just a tiny bit.
Speeding all the way on the unknown and mysterious road, I don’t know how long it took. When everyone had become accustomed to the increasingly dense ruins around them, in the deepest part of the black mist and ruins, there was a building that had never been seen before. The huge forest and white giant city gradually became clear.
The scale of this giant forest-white city is astonishing, almost comparable to the land of gods, and much larger than the skeleton fortresses passing by. The only thing that is the same is that whether it is this giant forest-white city or the previous skeletons The surface of the fortress and city presents layer upon layer of strange structures.
As for this weird stacking structure, or what materials these city walls are made of, it is self-evident.
I saw just above the Senbai Giant City, thick black mist was pouring out from the inside of the giant city, like a huge chimney, as if it would never stop. It was obviously the black mist in this area. The source of the fog.
The black mist that keeps pouring out is like a huge distorted black shadow, looking down at our group of people coldly.
And around the giant Senbai City, there was a bright red moat, making the whole scene even more weird and shocking.
"Your Majesty the Human Race, based on our estimate of the distance traveled, this is already the deepest part of the Howling Land, and it must be the capital of the lichs!"
Loris was covered with hair. Holding an ancient parchment map in his hand, after repeated confirmation, he nodded to Lei Xiao and said: "This place used to be the same place. It is not surprising that the Lich established its base camp here in the capital city of the Destruction Alliance." Listening to Loris's words, Lei Xiao looked around, and there were indeed people everywhere around the giant white city. From the large number of ruins and collapsed buildings, it is not difficult to see from the huge scale that an extremely glorious civilization once stood here.
Now, these low and dilapidated ruins form a sharp contrast with the tall forest-white giant city, as if they are silently telling a cruel past.
Finally, Lei Xiao fixed his sights on the thick walls of Senbai Giant City.
At this time, the city walls were covered with lichs and high-level undead soldiers. The empty eye sockets emitted a strange red light, which was obviously completely different from the ordinary low-level undead army.
Under the protection of the absolute defense barrier, I saw that the other party looked confident and confident, looking down at our group of troops approaching the city, their eyes full of contempt and murderous intent.
On the other hand, our military formation of ten thousand people seems insignificant in front of the huge Senbai City, as if a group of ants are trying to shake a big tree.
“Prepare to attack the city.”
Knowing that time was running out, Lei Xiao waved his hand, and rows of magic cannons immediately appeared at the front of our military formation.
These magic cannons are all extended-range types specially selected by Lei Xiao. The purpose is to attack beyond the opponent's range. Otherwise, with our limited strength, even if we rely on absolute defense, Breaking the opponent's city will definitely consume a lot of energy from the powerful magicians, which is not conducive to the subsequent battle.
Since all the powerful men present were the best of the best, in the blink of an eye, thousands of magic cannons were deployed, and the dark muzzles were aimed at the opponent's city wall.
“Attack!”
With Lei Xiao’s order, our military formation under the Senbai city wall suddenly became ablaze with magical power, and bunches of compressed magic bullets visible to the naked eye were fired. Like meteors all over the sky, it whizzed straight towards the opponent's city wall.
When the colorful magic bullets landed on the opponent's barrier wall, they were like meteorites falling into the lake and sea, immediately arousing waves of violent energy waves.
And because our firing range exceeded the opponent's range, the opponent did not blindly fight back, but still watched all this silently on the city wall.
After the first round of magic bombardment ended, the second round of magic bombardment began immediately, followed by the third and fourth rounds, causing earth-shaking roars to be heard and the energy surging out. The strong wind swept away sand and dust everywhere.
Lei Xiao looked at the extremely orderly bombardment of our magic powerhouses around him, and nodded with satisfaction.
Although there are all magic cannons of level 3 or above, and even quite a few of level 4 and 5, which far exceed the energy supply limit of the magic light crystal, those present are all level 5 or above. A strong man, the efficiency of supplying energy to the magic cannon is far beyond that of ordinary soldiers.
Lei Xiao even saw that the powerful members of the fairy race, led by Fanny, Chris, and Old Susan, were all supplying energy to several magic cannons at the same time, and they still seemed to be extremely capable. This was based on what everyone had just done last night. Under the premise of going through a big war.
After Lei Xiao's supply of various high-level magic potions, although everyone's magic power has not been fully restored, it has recovered more than half, enough to attack with relative ease.
In addition, a group of physical experts were not idle either. With the blessing of spells that increased the range, various bows, crossbows, spears, and stones poured in like raindrops, drawing out lines in the mid-air. A series of sharp trajectories.
For a time, our magic artillery fire and physical long-range attacks were overwhelming, making the originally extremely dense black fog seem to have become much thinner. Although the opponent's absolute defense barrier has not yet cracked, it is still intact. The strange luster of the boundary wall dimmed a lot, which showed that the other party was obviously under a lot of pressure.
“Your Majesty the Human Race, if we continue with this momentum, it will only be a matter of time before we break through the opponent’s absolute defensive barrier!”
Xina's fair face was full of excitement, and she nodded to Lei Xiao.
Before this, although her newly acquired sixth-level equipment was taken away by Belinda, she took it out later, and she looked eager to try it, even after experiencing the attack last night. , her injuries have not fully recovered.
“That’s right, when this absolute defensive barrier is broken, this leader will be the first to rush to the city!”
Loris’ lion face also looked impatient. The sixth-order giant ax in his hand was shining brightly.
Listening to the emotional words of the two, Lei Xiao just smiled but did not respond.
Judging from the current situation, the other party just took a beating and did not make any other actions. To the cunning lichs, this did not seem to be in line with the other party's character.
It is not difficult to see from this that the other party must be brewing some conspiracy.
“According to the scout’s report, what is known so far is that, just as I just expected, the undead armies from other skeleton fortresses on the other side are gathering here in an attempt to encircle us.”
“But even for the Skeleton Fortress, which is the closest to here, it will take an estimated hour for the army to reach here, plus another hour. The strength of the Skeleton Fortress is relatively limited. Facing us alone is no different from dying. This means that the opponent has to wait for reinforcements from other Skeleton Fortresses, which will consume more time."
"As for that. The backer behind the scenes will never show up easily until the critical moment when the Lich is about to be destroyed.”
"In other words, apart from encirclement and support, the other party may have other means of coping, otherwise the lichs on the city wall would never be so calm."
Lei Xiao gently rubbed his chin, thinking in his heart Thinking secretly.
Then the question is, what other response methods will the other party use?
After all, our strength is already the best among the best. Even with the black mist bonus, the opponent will never blindly choose to confront us head-on.
Thinking this, Lei Xiao's eyes began to move back to the surroundings subconsciously.
However, moving from the huge white city in front of them to the surrounding low ruins to the thick black mist in the sky, nothing special was found.
"Am I overthinking it?"
Just when Lei Xiao was wondering if he was a little too nervous and overestimated his opponent, Xiaojing and Xiaojie made confused sounds. , almost at the same time, it sounded in the former’s ears: “Qi Sir, my subordinates suddenly sensed a similar aura!”
“Are you saying that there are other strange [God’s Stones] around?”
Lei Xiao was stunned at first! , and then reacted immediately.
Could it be that the opponent also has a stone elf in his hand, and the stone elf is the key to the opponent's hidden method?
But Xiaojie's next response denied Lei Xiao's view: "Returning to the lord, it is indeed the [God's Stone], but the other party is extremely weak, and the situation is no better than the sleeping [God's Stone] before. Stone] is much stronger."
"Is it extremely weak? That can almost eliminate the threat."
Hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.
In this case, the possibility of the opponent using the [God's Stone] can basically be ruled out. With the cunning nature of the lich, he will naturally not make an attack with an egg against a stone.
Thinking of this, another trace of doubt emerged on Lei Xiao's face.
This is the depths of the Howling Land. Why is there an extremely weak [God's Stone] appearing here?
Just when Lei Xiao was puzzled, Xiaojing's next words made Lei Xiao more confused.
"Lord, it's strange to say that my subordinates clearly didn't sense the existence of any strange people of the same kind just now. That guy seemed to pop out suddenly."
Xiao Jing finished speaking. , Xiaojie immediately nodded, and the situation she encountered was obviously exactly the same as the former.
"Not only is it an extremely weak [God's Stone], but it also appeared suddenly?"
Bewildered, Lei Xiao asked again: "Where is that aura now?"
"Go back to the lord, it's down here."
Xiao Jing and Xiao Jie spoke in unison again, both pointing to the ground.
"What?!" Lei Xiao heard the sound, but his expression suddenly became nervous. (End of chapter)
