As soon as Xu Lai said these words, everyone present fell silent.
Only Jilong’s eyes became brighter and brighter, and he said to Xu Lai:
“That’s right, the underground queen Moriel not only wants the dungeon clans to submit sacrifices, but also wants them to provide soldiers to fight for her.
You only need them to provide a little money and resources, which is already very kind to them."
"If you are sure you want to do this, then please let me talk to them. "Elvi frowned and stood up.
Xu Lai knew why they didn't agree to negotiate with him in the underground city. In the final analysis, it was because they didn't bring many people out this time and were worried about safety issues.
However, Xu has seen Moriel’s territory map. The map is too big and it is definitely impossible to see everything clearly.
But Xu Lai has seen most of the resources and buildings that are helpful to the imperial camp.
Although the resources of the underground city are not rich, compared with the empire, it has a wider territory after all, although most of the territory is uninhabitable.
The resources such as gems and crystals that the empire needs are not much needed in dungeons. Almost no one collects the crystal mines and gem lakes in the wild.
In addition, there are countless wild buildings in the vast wilderness. Among them, the dungeon camp has the most related buildings, but there are also many other camps such as empires, barriers, and towers.
Xu Lai has the Angel Alliance. The greatest function of this artifact is not to automatically release the ultimate prayer when the war starts, but to be able to avoid the morale loss caused by multiple camps.
For this reason, Xu Lai does not only need to focus on the buildings of the imperial camp for recruitment. He can also choose troops from other camps.
The characteristic arm of the empire is the knight, but the barrier has powerful long-range troops, has stronger defense than the heavy shield infantry, and can entangle the enemy's human shield tree spirit.
Not to mention the tower, the Titans, the strongest mage and the strongest long-range shooter, are all in the tower.
There are Hydras in the swamp that are unparalleled in melee combat, and bulls that even Xu Lai is afraid of. Elemental creatures can be temporarily ignored because they can be summoned with spells.
But spells cannot summon it, the fastest immortal phoenix in the world.
In the stronghold, there are also the powerful flying creature Thunderbird, and the most powerful physical warrior Behemoth.
These special arms, the ultimate arms, can all find corresponding outdoor buildings in the vast underground space.
However, it is impossible for Xu Lai to send troops to occupy these wild buildings.
Even if he occupied it, he wouldn't be able to recruit every month. With such a vast territory, no matter how fast he was, it would take him a few months to finish all the wild buildings.
After all, he can't fly, so he has to go around some places. No matter how well planned the route is, he can't finish it all.
But the people in the dungeon are different. Their nobles and heroes are distributed in every corner and region.
With their assistance, they only need to recruit these soldiers and then gather them into a city, and Xu Lai will just go and collect them once a month.
Although these recruitment buildings in the wild do not have any bonuses, they cannot support the large number.
In addition to the relatively small number of recruitment buildings for top-level military units, the number of mid-level units such as Barbarian Bulls is not small.
Xu Lai pondered for a long time, how could he not let go of these soldiers, losing them in vain every month.
Since Moriel can become the queen of the underground, why can't he, who defeated Moriel and only needs the dungeon and pays some tributes that they don't really need, become the king of the dungeon?
Unifying the dungeon is not an easy task, because there are many tribes in the dungeon, including several tribes in the Tauren tribe alone.
In addition, the Medusa Tribe, the Poison Eye Tribe and the Harpy Tribe are also considered powerful tribes.
It is by no means an easy task to make so many tribes obedient and surrender to Xu Lai.
For others, even if they are strong enough, just wiping out these underground tribes will take only a few years, which is a no-brainer.
However, Xu Lai has another advantage, which is speed.
His predecessor, the underground queen Moriel, set a good example for him, and he just had to follow it.
Xu Lai smiled and waved his hands and said: "I want to negotiate with them, but it is not that we condescend to talk to them, but we want them to beg to talk to us."
"Please talk to us? They don't even dare to see us now, so how can they come to talk to us?" Elvi asked in confusion.
"That's because they don't hurt enough. When they hurt badly, they will naturally come to us." Xu Lai said decisively.
When everyone heard what Xu Lai said, they naturally understood what Xu Lai meant. He had already made up his mind.
However, Xu Lai was actually hesitant before Xu Lai brought up this topic.
Although this underground trip accomplished the set goal, generally speaking, it was not smooth.
There are various twists and turns before entering the dungeon's sphere of influence.
After entering the dungeon forces, Xu Lai had to be even more careful.
Isn’t it because he summoned so many fire elements along the way that he saw the special items of the dungeon heroes in the underground city at the entrance.
Xu Zizi believed that his attack power must be far higher than Huaying's, but he did not see the upper limit of the dungeon's durability.
In his heart, he was still very afraid of this thing.
Although this thing does not directly control them, it will greatly restrict their movements. If a few more Bone Dungeons are stacked, I don't know how long they will be restricted.
Even if there are only one or two of these things, limiting Xu Lai's time is enough to delay high-level magicians from casting spells.
If such a situation really happens, Xu Lai will be in danger, so he keeps hundreds of fire elements by his side anytime and anywhere.
Even if the existence of these fire elements will slow down his speed.
But after all, when walking underground, you still need to explore the path first, so it won’t waste much time.
The dungeon camp should not be popular, and there should not be many heroes coming. At least it cannot be compared with camps such as Empire and Barrier.
But in one camp, I don’t even dare to think that there are eight thousand heroes, but there must be eight hundred heroes.
If Xu Lai really wants to take the initiative to attack, the risk he will take is still very high.
However, if you don’t take risks, where will the gains come from.
It is not so much that Xu Lai is asking Elvie and the others, but rather that he is trying to convince himself.
I had already had enough rest before, so this time, I just rested briefly, ate some hot food, and immediately started taking action.
Xu Lai's time is never enough. He is doing things almost all the time, always trying to break one minute into two minutes.
This time Xu Lai couldn't reserve much time for his temporary change of mind.
Before the end of the month, he would return to Qingfeng City no matter what, and attach the hands of the God of War to the golden statue of the God of War.
At the same time, after he made his decision, he did not forget to communicate with Su Ya and Reina.
If he doesn't go home for a long time, he must communicate with Su Ya first. The purpose of informing Reina was to make Reina cooperate with his actions.
If you want to make the dungeon races surrender, just beating them is not enough.
We must let them know that we have the ability to deal with them, the ability to occupy their cities, and the ability to reduce them all to slaves.
Just massacring some civilians will not make the underground nobles feel the pain.
Only by making these ruling classes feel afraid can they surrender.
As they are now, every time Xu Lai goes to a city, these dungeon species either hide or run out.
Xu Lai’s Doomsday Judgment is equivalent to leaving his eyebrows to a blind man.
Accepting Xu Lai's instructions, Reina put up her own Sea King flag, Xu Lai's knight flag and the flag representing Qingfeng City.
Of course, the latter two have no magical abilities and cannot bring any blessings.
These two flags were erected just to tell the underground species who saw these two flags that Reina's army was on the same side as Xu Lai.
In addition to raising the flag, Lena also changed her previous combat policy and directly destroyed the city in the dungeon after capturing it.
Originally, in order to conveniently occupy the underground city, Reina occupied the city first, then sealed all the city gates and killed all the underground species in the city.
Because if you don’t kill them, waiting for them to escape to the city behind will leak out the information about Reina’s troops and the key specialization attributes.
They themselves will also become the guards of the next city.
The more people you let go before, the more difficult it will be for you later.
Of course, it is also possible that those who escaped from the front spread panic and morale to the rear, making it possible for the rear to surrender without a fight.
But anyway, it can increase experience and reduce trouble. Generally speaking, Reina will simply kill them all.
As a native resident of this world, I have personally experienced being attacked by underground cities, and I have also been imprisoned by the people in the underground cities for more than 50 years.
Leina’s anger towards the dungeon was even more intense than her old enemy, the undead.
In such a situation, let alone killing all these underground species would be beneficial to itself.
Even if there is no benefit, as long as Xu Lai doesn't mind, Reina herself would rather spend more time and kill all these guys.
However, this time, in order to cooperate with Xu Lai's overall strategy and to repay Xu Lai's various kindnesses, Reina chose to restrain her emotions.
In the next few days of siege, she adopted the method of surrounding three and missing one, deliberately leaving an escape route for the underground species.
Even if there are those who are too late to escape, after being caught, she no longer kills them directly, but deliberately lets them go.
These underground species will spread the idea that Xu Lai only wants the underground city residents to surrender, not to deprive them of their right to rule.
Leina even followed Xu Lai's instructions and told these underground species that there was no need for them to confront Xu Lai.
Xu Lai attacked the dungeon, firstly to avenge her Reina, and secondly because their queen Moriel took the initiative to attack Xu Lai, so she came to take revenge.
As long as the residents of the underground city are willing to pay a certain price, Xu Lai is willing to let things go.
Even this price does not need to be too high, at least it will have little impact on the interests of the underground nobles.
As for whether those underground nobles believe it or not, that's none of Reina's business.
She just did what Xu Lai ordered. Whether she believed them or not, it had nothing to do with her.
Even Reina would rather they didn't believe it. This would give her the opportunity to wipe out all these underground bugs.
In the continuous fighting, the combat effectiveness of the Qingfeng Legion not only did not suffer losses, but instead increased more and more.
On the one hand, it is because of the continuous acquisition of experience and the improvement of qualifications with dragon meat, which leads to the improvement of levels.
On the other hand, the new recruits who joined the army were trained as quickly as possible through combat instead of training.
The improvement of levels, the elimination of rawness, the increase of tacit understanding and actual combat experience will naturally only make this army stronger and stronger.
From this point of view, Rena hopes to have constant battles. It is best to have enough battles for her to cultivate the Qingfeng Legion to a top-level legion.
Anyway, Xu Lai will not be stingy with money for promotion.
Even if Xu Lai goes out to fight and is unable to supply her for the time being, Reina can still use the resources she grabbed first, and Xu Lai won't mind this.
Reina is just cooperating. Xu Lai's idea of becoming the king of the underground must be realized by himself.
What Xu Lai did was very simple, just stroll around a big city, and then go to the end of the world.
In a small city, there are not many people and few nobles. If they must hide, Xu Lai really has no good solution.
But in big cities, even if some of the top nobles can hide, how can their families, relatives and friends all be hidden?
Even if everyone can be hidden, how many cavemen are needed to support a big city, and how many soldiers are needed to defend it.
Xu Lai was indiscriminate, not even close to the city, and cast spells outside the range of others.
Dungeon either chooses to fight in the wild and prevents Xu Lai from getting close to the city, or it can only continue to use its own flesh and blood to bear the consumption of Xu Lai's mana.
Xu Lai is not in a hurry at all. Even if his idea fails this time, he can still come back next time.
But if you make a mistake and fall into the trap of the dungeon, you may not have another chance.
Therefore, he would rather waste a lot of range than get close to these cities.
Moreover, in each city, he would only release one round of Doomsday Judgment. After the release, he would run away and change places after shooting.
He is forcing now, not to clear these cities.
Xu Lai wanted to make these underground nobles feel real pain, but he also couldn't defeat them completely at once, lest they have the idea of preferring to die rather than surrender and die together.
With Moriel's territory map, Xu Lai did not go near those well-defended military fortresses. He even walked around the twelve major cities.
On the one hand, they are cautious, and on the other hand, they are constantly putting pressure on these underground nobles until they are completely crushed.
What Xu Lai didn't know was that his method of shooting and changing places gave these underground nobles a headache.
Because they have been defeated a long time ago, but they can't even find anyone who admits defeat and begs for mercy.
Finally, they contacted Xu Lai through Reina, and asked Reina to tell Xu Lai that they were willing to admit defeat and surrender. (End of this chapter)
