Chapter 155 Domineering and Unparalleled (4000 words, two chapters in one)
The noise came through the gap in the space. Even if you didn't see it, you could still know what it was like outside.
Richard's eyes gradually became colder and his breathing gradually slowed down.
Although he has experienced countless battles, large and small.
But like today, commanding five legions, all of which are Brilliant level or above, to face the entire world.
Definitely a first time.
This is also the biggest war he has ever encountered.
And he is the core of this war, everyone's first target.
His success or failure will directly determine the direction of the world.
"Gray, take care of our troops."
"Remember, the priority is to protect yourself and minimize casualties."
The hundreds of troops in Twilight City were like a drop in the ocean in such a big scene, inconspicuous.
He arranged an excellent position for the army that was very safe and could harvest points wantonly.
As a commander of an army, this action is effortless.
"Yes, Master!"
The moment Gray finished speaking.
Woohoo~
A long and deep horn sound penetrated the gap in the space.
The war has begun!
Richard's face hardened.
"Archers prepare!!"
Brush~
The troops stationed on the city wall all pulled the longbows in their hands, and the sound of the bowstrings tightening instantly solidified the atmosphere of the battlefield.
The next second, accompanied by the sound of the horn, densely packed mechanical puppets passed through the gaps in the space like a water curtain.
These war machines, which are over 5 meters in size, are the masterpieces of dwarves.
The various ferocious weapons on his body make people's scalp numb just by looking at them.
"Attack!"
A cold snort spread across the battlefield.
The archers on the city wall, the arrow array behind the city wall, and the arrow towers of different heights.
At the same time, everyone released the bow strings that were stretched to the extreme.
咻咻咻咻~
Arrows whizzed out reflecting the cold light.
Exaggerated numbers cover the sky.
The city wall is only a hundred meters away from the widest point of the Space Gate.
The arrow was well within the range of maximum lethality.
Ding Ling Julang~
Although the first batch of leaders were all mechanical puppets with exaggerated defense capabilities.
But under the saturation attack, the strong body was pierced and the weak joints were directly broken.
In a few breaths, those killing machines turned into mechanical limbs all over the place.
However, these casualties could not stop the Templar Empire's offensive at all, as more and more mechanical puppets poured in from outside the space gaps.
In less than ten minutes, the remains of mechanical puppets were piled up in front of them.
It looks like a disassembly factory of some kind of large machinery, which looks quite visually impressive.
But it didn't take long for the attacking enemy forces to change.
A large number of human warriors and crossbowmen with magic shields on their bodies began to advance mixed with mechanical puppets.
What is striking is that those human soldiers have more than a dozen buffing magics hanging on them.
Although those top combat abilities higher than level 14 are inaccessible, they enhance the strength of the army in another way.
The will of the plane does not reject this.
When Richard saw this scene, he took a deep breath.
The real test begins now.
After the enemy troops entered, the mechanical puppet that had just been destroyed on the ground now became the best bunker.
The collapse of the 5-meter body is enough to cover several people.
Covered by the stumps of magic puppets, their crossbowmen were constantly pulling the triggers to suppress fire.
The human warriors quickly advanced under the city wall.
The 12-meter-high city wall may be too high for ordinary people to climb.
But for the first batch of elite troops that launched the attack, almost all of them were at level 14.
It was a breeze to climb over.
Those fully armed human warriors jumped up, inserted their long knives into the city wall, and then trampled on the city wall.
Click~
Large cracks appeared in the city wall, and the huge push-back force caused their height to rise rapidly.
The archers at the rear are suppressing the incoming troops, and only the soldiers at the front can pose a threat to them.
In just a few breaths, the front of the city wall was crawling with enemy soldiers.
There are too many to kill.
But just when the other party is about to succeed.
Bah! The city wall condensed with sand and stone is like a hedgehog exploding its hair, with countless sharp thorns poking out in an instant.
The soldiers who clung to the city wall to avoid arrow damage had no defense at all, and the armor covering them could still resist.
Weak points such as the neck, face, and eyes that were not protected by armor were instantly pierced.
Blood splattered and corpses fell crashing down.
"Ding~ You killed a Brilliant-level soldier, and you got 300 points."
"Ding~"
The system's intensive prompts rang in Richard's ears.
Controlling the yellow sand, Super A Grade can kill at least seven or eight squadrons of enemies with one blow.
"Ding~ Your level has been improved. Current level: level 8. Your upper limit of magic power has been increased to 2000 points."
When the last prompt sounded, a majestic force like lava bursting into his body.
The aura instantly returns to its peak state, and all cool-down skills are refreshed.
Each upgrade will strengthen the basic attributes. Although it is not displayed, the benefits brought by the upgrade are real.
The higher the potential, the more exaggerated the improvement will be.
As the owner of a legendary profession, Richard has received much more promotions than others
Feeling the surging power in his body, he took a deep breath and felt a bit excited in his eyes.
Finally upgraded.
The higher the level, the lower the experience gained from killing lower-level units.
Now a group of brilliant-level or even crown-level soldiers were slaughtered by him, and the benefits gained were extremely exaggerated.
While he was distracted for a moment, the enemy troops surged up again.
Seeing that the opponent started to use mechanical puppets to gather a large number of crossbowmen to suppress the soldiers on the city wall, Richard raised his eyebrows.
"Legions of spellcasters, flaming magic - fire coverage!"
If the opponent relies on mechanical puppets to act as cover, then the entire range is under attack.
There were five squadrons of spellcasters in the rear and began to chant magic.
After a while.
Hundreds of fireballs roared away, pulling long flame tails.
Bang~
The fireball hit the ground, splashing flames all over the sky, and the temperature suddenly rose.
The army behind the mechanical puppets was directly enveloped in flames.
Even with a magic shield, the opponent still felt pain under repeated injuries.
Once a war begins, it will not end so easily.
Not only did the enemy's offensive not slow down, but it became more and more violent.
Led by heroic units, these troops recruited from the lairs of advanced military units charged forward without fear.
Elf archers, dwarf machines, human warriors, and church priests. A mixed army began to pour in, replacing the original pure human army.
The explosive power of a mixed arms formation is obviously stronger than that of a single arm.
The arrows that were extremely deadly just now were mostly weakened at this moment. The priest's healing and courage aura made the warriors charging forward particularly brave.
And the mechanical puppets began to build siege ladders, which made the geographical advantage created by Richard begin to be wiped out
Half an hour after the battle began, the siege ladder constructed of the dwarf mechanical puppet was completely formed, and the opponent's army could rush up the city wall after stepping out of the space gate.
Richard immediately dispatched the archers on the city wall to the rear to form a new arrow formation for a projectile attack.
At the same time, he uses the ability to control sand and gravel to continuously cover the puppet army in front, causing the opponent's siege equipment to collapse as much as possible.
But maintaining and repairing the city wall required a huge amount of magic power, and he couldn't spare much energy to deal with it all.
At level 8, there is no power to control the direction of this war involving 100,000 people.
We still have to rely on the troops of the Scarlet Parliament to fight head-on with the opponent.
"The flaming ax shatters!"
When a large group of human warriors climbed up from under the city wall.
Richard looked at his army.
Except for the heavy sword warriors, he has included all the melee fighters in the hidden soldier card, leaving only the sand archers and the ax of the dead fighting outside.
Twilight City's army is unrivaled among players.
But it can't be compared with the armies cultivated by these top NPC forces.
Only the damage hunting points of long-range troops can be used.
The only pity he felt was that the enemies hunted by the Scarlet Council's army were not counted on his head.
Otherwise, with this 50,000 army, he felt that he could reach level 10 in one wave.
Click~
25 battle axes were smashed beneath the city wall.
Countless fragments flew out, covering a diameter of 10 meters, followed by a scorching high temperature, covering a diameter of 20 meters.
Even if the human warrior below was up to level 14, he was still destroyed under the heavy and superimposed attacks.
The battle had lasted less than an hour, and as a defender, Richard had already lost one legion of his troops.
The Light camp's offensive far exceeded his expectations.
It was a complete charge regardless of the cost or casualties.
Coupled with the fact that the top combat forces outside are constantly blessing these armies with magic and improving their combat effectiveness, he is under increasing pressure.
12pm.
The third princess revealed the aura left by the artifact for the seventh time.
The enemy's offensive has reached its peak.
A large number of soldiers fell on the battlefield almost every second, and life was worthless at this moment.
The city wall has long been in decay. If he hadn't been repairing it frantically, this only line of defense would have been breached long ago.
In the third and a half hours of the war.
Huhu~
A large number of griffins, dragons and pegasus wrapped in armor appeared from the gaps in space.
Sensing the weakness of the defending army, the Lightsworn launched a final assault.
They can no longer tolerate the slow progress.
Not only the sky, Richard could clearly sense that a group of strange giant beetles had penetrated through the gaps in space and then directly into the ground.
There is a depression in the abdomen of those giant insects covered with spikes, and there is a human warrior sitting inside.
Special unit, worm cavalry.
These insect cavalry left dozens of passages at the door. As long as the rear troops entered them, they could enter behind the city wall through underground passages.
Richard's expression became colder and colder.
The opponent already has a triple attack of sky, ground, and underground.
The already severely reduced Scarlet Parliament army began to be strangled crazily.
The situation began to spiral out of control
If he had level 14, he might be able to hold on for a few more hours.
But keeping the city wall from being blown down consumes a huge amount of magic power, making it impossible for him to take out his hands to do more operations.
Facing the impact of a group of 10 to 14 level troops that numbered in the tens of thousands, I felt a bit insignificant.
Although Super A Grade has natural disaster-like damage, it also requires enough magic power to support it.
By the fourth hour of the war, the situation was no longer salvageable.
Richard took a deep breath and held the magic crystal that Knowles gave him in his hand.
Inside, there are still 80,000 magic points left
There was a cold arc at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes gradually became wild.
Let everyone witness the coming of a natural disaster.
"Mir, let all armies withdraw from the walls!"
Mir, who was covered in blood, saw that the enemy troops had completely poured in, and knew that their goal of resisting the enemy troops for 8 hours would be impossible to achieve.
Immediately execute Richard's order.
With the remaining troops fighting and retreating.
When Richard saw the army leaving quickly, he waved his hand, and the third princess placed behind him was protected by a pupa condensed with gravel.
He had taken advantage of his free time to take back the hidden troops cards of the Twilight City army. In such a huge war, the hundreds of people would not be able to splash the water.
The endless yellow sand light on his body began to surge.
All of a sudden.
Rumble~
The broken city wall crashed towards the front like an avalanche
"Ding~ You kill an elf warrior (crown level) and get 1,000 points."
"Ding"
The reminder to earn points just doesn't ring a bell.
The next second, his eyes looked at the earth.
Deep underground, the worm cavalry has opened dozens of roads.
A large number of troops are pouring into it, intending to intercept and kill them.
There was an indifferent arc at the corner of his mouth.
He pressed down hard with his hands.
The earth made a muffled sound like thunder.
The passages dug by the earth-boring insects collapsed directly.
The thick soil buried everyone directly.
"Ding~ You get 300 points for killing a human heavy armor soldier (Brilliant level)"
"Ding~"
At this moment, more than a dozen level 14 dragons swooped in, with extremely hot flames in their throats.
That was enough dragon breath to melt steel and burn down city walls.
The target is him.
And behind the giant dragon, the enemies who had lost the suppression of the Scarlet Parliament army poured in like ants.
The sheer number of them makes one’s scalp numb.
It seems that the tide is over.
When Richard saw this scene, he suddenly smiled.
30,000 points of magic power were extracted directly from the magic crystal.
All of a sudden.
The collapsed city wall on the ground suddenly floated into the air at this moment.
Brush ~ The huge sandstorm swirled in an instant, forming a terrifying tornado storm.
The roaring hurricane seemed to distort space.
The gravel on the city wall became a killer weapon in the hurricane.
Crazy and violent.
Huhu~
The roar of a demon sounded in everyone's ears.
The gravel hitting their faces made them feel as if they were undergoing torture, and the blood instantly stained their faces red.
The Scarlet Council soldiers who fled far away saw a scene that shocked them extremely.
A giant sandstorm completely enveloped the 100-meter-wide gap in space in front of him.
The troops that poured out seemed as fragile as ants, unable to escape no matter how hard they struggled.
Even the mighty dragon couldn't break away from the terrifying storm pulling the flesh and blood millstone, crushing everything.
Just when they thought it was over.
Boom~
Like a dragon's breath lighting up autumn haystacks.
In the sandstorm, flames capable of melting steel were ignited.
The gravel turned red under the high temperature, and its lethality increased more than ten times.
Everyone is enveloped.
No distinction is made between friend and foe.
Even if the Scarlet Parliament’s troops did not escape, they would all be devoured at this moment.
Roar~
Countless terrifying roars and screams came through the sandstorm.
Natural disaster!
This is a natural disaster!
Everyone was afraid at this moment.
Mir, a hero who originally obeyed orders due to his identity as elder Richard, no longer had the slightest contempt at this moment, only deep awe and fear in his heart.
Outside the dimensional plane.
Feng Ge, the second player in the points rankings, became extremely stiff.
He has been following the war closely.
He knew how powerful Qingqiu was, so the opponent's points increased from 130,000 to 300,000, so he wasn't too surprised.
But why in the blink of an eye, the points of that bastard in Qingqiu increased from 300,000 to 500,000.
Can anyone tell him what happened? ? (End of chapter)
