Chapter 192 The Advantage of Youth
“Fight!”
“You all die!”
The long swords attacked each other, and neither side had any intention of retreating. It is a posture of rushing to send the opponent away first, which is very fierce.
Defense?
No defense required.
As long as the opponent is sent away first so that they cannot launch a second attack, there is no need to defend.
Under the education of the Evernight Empire, the Evernight warriors are very brave and sometimes do not take their lives seriously at all.
For a time, the entire battlefield was filled with an aura of violence.
The knight of the Eternal Night Empire slashed at the kingdom guard, instantly tearing his armor apart, then breaking through the armor of energy and blood, and finally cutting his body open.
The face of the Kingdom Guard was full of determination and determination, and the attack before his death also fell on the Evernight Knight.
However, the attack, which was enough to crack mountains, crack rocks, and break through metal armor, only made a dull impact sound at this moment.
I saw a deep radiance glowing from the black armor, and the sharp Zhan Mang was swallowed up and dissolved.
Sparks flew.
This fatal attack was neutralized silently.
“This is meteorite, how is it possible?!” As if he recognized the material of the equipment, before dying, the kingdom guard’s eyes were wide open, full of shock and disbelief.
He didn't understand why such precious meteorite would be used on an ordinary soldier.
With full of doubts and unwillingness, the kingdom guard slowly fell to the ground.
"I have to say that you are still quite capable, but it's a pity that you met me." Looking down at the narrow white marks on the armor, the Evernight Knight shook his head, grinned, and was impressed by the strength of the Kingdom's guards. Expressed approval.
This Kingdom Guard is very strong, and even he may not be able to win in a fair duel.
But, the battlefield is never a place where fairness is sought.
On the battlefield, it is not only the strength of the soldiers that determines victory or defeat, but also logistics supplies and equipment.
After years of development, the Eternal Night Empire has already surpassed most players in terms of equipment and technology. As for the forces in these local planes, they have been left behind so much that they can no longer even see their shadows.
Of all the "catalysts", war is the one that most promotes the development of technology. Affected by this, the Evernight Empire has developed rapidly in recent years.
The Hundred Nations Alliance also learned a lot of knowledge during its battle with the Evernight Empire and developed rapidly.
However, the gap between the two sides has not narrowed, but has become wider.
As for why this happens?
In the final analysis, there is only one reason, the resource gap.
Let’s put it this way, the Hundred Nations Alliance only owns the Northern Continent.
For the Eternal Night Empire, the Eastern Continent is only part of the empire's territory, not all of it. They also have a wider territory in the void.
Although most of those territories are in the development stage, it is undeniable that the resources of those lands are indeed very rich.
The Hundred Nations Alliance and the Evernight Empire are not on the same level in terms of resources.
Just like the previous blue countries, as long as they are on the right track, the strength displayed by a country with vast territory and rich resources will exceed the imagination of other countries.
Can't even stop it.
The same is true now. The Eternal Night Empire, which has many void planes to support it, has no shortage of resources, and they have no regard for cost performance.
As long as the combat effectiveness can be improved, it is open to creation.
As for the cost?
Just kidding, there is no cost at all.
There is no shortage of undead creatures in the Eternal Night Empire, and there are countless tree people who want to work in the void plane.
For the Evernight Empire, the only cost is probably the mining wages.
However, compared with the value of the ore itself, these are nothing.
Meteorite is a very precious resource in the Hundred Kingdoms Alliance. It is often only equipped to high-level extraordinary people, but the Eternal Night Empire is different. They equip all warriors.
In terms of equipment, the two sides are almost a notch apart.
In addition to equipment, the gap in other aspects is not small.
The most obvious thing is the mount beneath him.
That is a gap that can be seen at a glance.
The environment of the northern continent is very suitable for cultivating horse breeds, and the war horses carefully selected by the kingdom are each very majestic and can be called the king of horses.
However, compared with the Evernight Empire, the gap is too big.
The Hundred Nations Alliance used the entire prairie to cultivate war horses and fed them with fine feed, while the Eternal Night Empire used the entire demiplane to cultivate war horses and fed them with spiritual grass and ferocious beast meat.
After years of training, the Evernight Empire now has many excellent horse breeds.
For example, it is a nightmare horse that has been infiltrated by darkness and is a hybrid hybrid that is most suitable for dark believers.
Another example is a dragon-blooded horse that focuses on cultivating its body, developing muscles, and focusing on endurance, strength, and explosion.
Or maybe it is a gale horse that is as fast as the wind and can travel thousands of miles a day, possessing extreme speed.
In addition, there are many...
The mounts under this noble army are nightmare horses.
To put it bluntly, without relying on knights, just relying on these nightmare horses can capture many mid-level legions.
“Hahaha, you all die!”
“It’s just a warrior from the kingdom who wants to stop us. It’s really overestimating his own capabilities.”
“Under the watchful eye of my lord. , give you death! !”
Roaring, a black-armored knight broke through the defense line of the kingdom’s guards. They waved their swords and killed the kingdom’s guards in front of them.
No matter how much the kingdom's imperial guards resisted, it was of no avail.
There is no use talking about anything else at this time. After all, everyone has the same extraordinary realm and the same firm will, so the only thing that can compete is hard power.
In this aspect, the Evernight Knight has a clear advantage.
In addition to equipment and other foreign objects, there is also the most fatal gap between the two armies.
Age.
Compared with this Kingdom Guards, the noble legions of the Evernight Empire are really too young. They are generally a generation younger than the Kingdom Guards.
Sometimes, youth is the greatest asset.
Because youth means passion, drive, and room for improvement.
This is not to say that the Kingdom Guards are too old. In terms of lifespan, they are in their prime, and all their body functions are at the peak of their lives.
If there is no breakthrough in the future, then this period will be the stage when their combat effectiveness is strongest.
Yes, the strongest.
Your peak is my beginning. The confrontation between the prime of life and youth.
You have reached the end, but I have just started!
So this will be a very nonsense phenomenon. It is easy for the opponent to level up just by fighting.
This was also the situation on the battlefield at this time. As time went by, this young legion began to improve under the pressure brought by the kingdom's guards.
Things that were previously incomprehensible are now gradually becoming clear in my mind.
Feeling this change, the Kingdom Guards felt powerless.
The young warriors on the opposite side have been furious, and they also want to do so, but the reality is cruel and they are powerless.
They have been finalized.
He no longer has the courage he had when he was young.
They have lost the confidence that "even if this path is wrong, I can still start over", they can no longer do it.
Youth is the greatest confidence.
"Jie hahaha, keep coming and fight happily!" Thunder rumbled in the center of the battlefield. Ax looked ferocious, with many wounds on his body, but his momentum became stronger and stronger, and the thunder clung to his body. , making a crackling sound.
The spear kept waving, and each swing brought up a gust of wind. The lightning flashed, and the shadow of the gun could not be seen clearly.
"Huh-huh-"
Bazel was breathing heavily, his injuries getting worse, and he struggled to parry the spear and resist the attack.
Feeling Ax's growing momentum, Bazel also felt powerless.
He obviously injured Ax, but the opponent's combat effectiveness increased instead of decreasing.
"General, we can't beat him. Let's retreat. We can still run out now, but it will be over in a while." Seeing that the situation was getting worse, the adjutant beside him hurriedly suggested.
"We can't retreat. The opponent's horses are better than ours. To retreat is to die." Bazel was silent for a while and quickly replied.
As a qualified general, Bazel did not think retreat was a shameful thing.
But the problem now is that they can't escape.
Once they fought, Bazel realized that either they would completely defeat this imperial cavalry, or they would all be buried here.
As for retreat?
Sorry, there is no such option.
The gap between the war horses is too big, and they can't escape at all.
Now with a strong spirit, they can still fight the Night Knight.
Once you choose to retreat, you will have lost your morale and you will really have no choice but to wait for death.
“You are so stubborn that you won’t even run away.”
The black-armored captain cut off the warrior in front of him with one blow and couldn't help but sigh in admiration.
As time goes by, the combat effectiveness of the Evernight Knights becomes stronger and stronger, while the Kingdom Guards are just the opposite.
No matter how firm their will is, when their own warriors continue to fall, but their opponents have no losses and are getting stronger and stronger, they can't help but feel a sense of despair and begin to doubt themselves.
Once the belief is shaken, it will affect the overall situation like chain lightning.
Finally, after a day of fierce fighting.
The fighting stopped on this battlefield.
Ax looked ahead, and there was no one standing anywhere visible to the naked eye.
The Royal Guards Corps of the Kingdom was completely annihilated.
"Report to the general, the casualties have been counted."
"Say."
"We lost 1,372 people and killed more than 10,000 of the enemy." The officer who came to report the situation was very excited and said with a smile: "General, what a victory! Even the regular army of the empire will face the kingdom. For the Imperial Guard, if you want to achieve such a high battle loss ratio, I am afraid that only the few legions in front can do it."
"Yes." Ax nodded silently, his expression still indifferent. out of any joy.
In the Evernight Empire, there are many legions that can defeat the sixth-order guards.
However, there are only a few that can annihilate an entire legion.
Being able to lead this newly formed noble army to such an achievement, Ax's ability is undoubtedly very strong.
"Gather their bodies and burn them." After a while, Akers said.
"Yes, general." The officer immediately responded loudly.
As Eternal Night believers, they naturally also mastered the art of summoning the dead, but no one suggested doing so.
After a brief rest, Akers led the legion and rushed into the grassland again, starting to look for other opponents.
Both sides invested hundreds of thousands of troops here, and the battle was extremely fierce. However, the overall situation was very clear. The Evernight Empire had the advantage, and the battle line moved forward all the way, heading straight for the capital of the kingdom.
Facing the powerful Eternal Night Army, the kingdom was unable to resist and retreated steadily.
Compared to when the war first started, the soldiers of the Evernight Empire have become much stronger.
……
At the same time, there was a sea area near the northern continent.
In this rough sea, the coastline of the Northern Continent is faintly visible, and a large-scale naval battle is being staged here.
Hundreds of warships are like steel behemoths, all over the sea area. Their hulls shine coldly in the sun, and their flags sound in the wind, indicating their respective camps. The artillery fire was intertwined, the fire was soaring into the sky, the sound of gunfire was continuous, and the smell of gunpowder smoke and sea water filled the air. One can imagine the intensity of the battle.
“Aim, shoot, and destroy their ships for me.” In this naval battle, the Evernight Empire had an absolute advantage. Even if they were on an expedition to the Northern Continent, they were still stable on the opponent’s home court. Stable suppression of the Alliance Navy.
On the battleship hundreds of meters away, the magic cannons made a low roar, and a dazzling light gathered at the muzzles.
Immediately afterwards, streaks of light pierced the sky and fell towards the enemy fleet like meteors. Explosions came one after another, flames shot into the sky, and the enemy ships broke apart and sank under these powerful attacks.
Each of the battleships of the Eternal Night Empire has a body of hundreds of meters. They are like castles on the sea, indestructible.
In front of these behemoths, the ships of the Alliance Navy seemed a little small and fragile. Although they tried their best to fight back, their resistance seemed so weak under the fierce bombardment of the Eternal Night Empire's magic cannon.
In addition to sea battleships, the empire also has sea warriors and super sea beasts to assist in the battle.
A skilled Naga warrior, leading the murloc servants, jumped up from the sea and landed on the battleship's plywood.
These half-human, half-snake creatures with snake bodies are known for their agility and strength. Their bodies are covered with black scales, which can resist damage from swords and swim freely in the water.
"Damn monster, get out of here." As the Sea Clan warriors landed on the splint, the battle became intense. On the battleship of the Hundred Nations Alliance, the Alliance warriors who had been waiting for a long time rushed up and fought with them. Fight together.
The Hundred Nations Alliance, which had seen the Sea Clan warriors in their early years, was already prepared for their landing and would not be as panicked as before.
These alliance warriors are different from those of the past. They also have strong combat effectiveness in close combat.
At least this time, there was no one-sided situation.
“You don’t overestimate your capabilities.” The huge Naga warrior sneered, raised his hand and stabbed out with a spear. The speed was so fast that the charging Alliance warrior didn’t even see the shadow of the gun clearly. As soon as I felt pain in my body, there was a blood hole as big as a bowl of blood on my chest.
The alliance navy's close combat effectiveness has indeed become stronger.
But it means nothing to the Naga warriors.
After many transformations, they can even be called top ocean overlords.
