Chapter 1457 Fighting fire with fire, information about the first gambling battle!
"The city beast is not only a mobile marching fortress used by the royal family to transport soldiers to the front line, but also a tool they use to recruit troops from various foreign tribes."
"Each alien tribe arranges tribesmen to enter the city beast. Not only can tribesmen go to the front line to obtain rewards from the game, but the royal family will also reward each tribe with war points based on its contribution to the front line. The war points can be stored in the treasury.
You can redeem many rare rewards in it, which can be used to improve your strength, and can also determine the proportion of winning gambling battles to divide the world in the future."
A solemn look appeared on Connie's face. As she spoke, her black and white hair seemed to be fluttering slightly due to her inner agitation.
"Except for you, I haven't heard of any other creature that can come out of the city beast alive."
Hearing this, Somo frowned slightly, and after thinking for a moment, he asked: "What is the meaning of the incantation for the beasts to leave the city? Since entering will mean death, why should we give them such hope?"
"That's because every foreign tribe is not monolithic within itself."
Connie's voice was cold, with a hint of undeniable cruelty.
"If you tell these tribesmen who enter the city beast that they are destined to die from the moment they enter, I'm afraid there won't even be one-tenth of the soldiers that the royal family can recruit."
"So, you used the spell as bait to trick them into believing that they still had a chance of survival?"
"Not entirely." Connie was silent for a moment before replying.
"Strength, the increase in strength that beasts can gain by entering the city is also one of the main reasons for those alien races to enter."
"The pollution and gifts inside the city beast depend on the acceptance level of the alien individual. The stronger the desire for power, the faster the pollution and frequency, and relatively speaking, more energy can be absorbed inside the city beast.
.On the contrary, if you have fear and resistance, your growth rate will not only be ridiculously slow, but you will also fall into degradation faster."
"If it were you before, you should have gone in, right?" Sumo suddenly asked.
The alien race's desire for strength is indeed far greater than that of humans.
Especially some alien races with obsessions are even more willing to sacrifice their lives for the pursuit of strength.
"Maybe, I don't know."
Connie took a sip of mountain spring water, her eyes flickered, but she didn't answer directly.
The two faced each other in silence for a while.
Inside the cabin, for a while, the only sounds left were the falling leaves and the pounding of rain outside.
"If I tell those aliens among the city beasts that they will definitely die, will it be useful?"
Sumo thought about it and felt that this would be a breakthrough.
Although some aliens voluntarily stepped into the city beast out of desire for power, it is undeniable that more aliens were deceived by lies and temptations and became pawns in the hands of the royal family.
If the anger and dissatisfaction of these alien races can be aroused, it will undoubtedly cause a heavy blow to the royal family's subsequent recruitment activities, thereby indirectly reducing the pressure on the human front line.
However, Connie slowly shook her head, with a hint of helplessness in her tone: "It shouldn't be of much use. The royal family has already anticipated the possible consequences of information leakage and has made full preparations for it."
"You have been inside the city beast and know the structure inside. There are many barriers set up inside the city beast for different races. Some places are not accessible at will. What's more, why do you let those alien races who have been polluted and lost their minds?
Do you believe what you say? They will die after leaving the city beast's body for seven days. There is no way we can buy so much time for them to verify."
"Taking a step back, even if they really believe that they will die inside the city beast, so what?"
"Aliens are different from humans. We have been on a mission since we were born. As long as we fight for the gods and die for the gods, and promise that they will be resurrected by the gods after death, do you think they will really care about their own death?
This little thing?"
Connie deliberately emphasized the importance of her voice on the small matter of death, and her sarcasm was palpable.
Will the gods resurrect a worthless scumbag?
What are you dreaming about in Spring and Autumn Period?
She had previously had dreams of fighting for the gods and entering the divine realm after death, but after entering the wasteland world and meeting Soma, all these illusions were completely shattered.
The gods are ruthless and can abandon everything without hesitation.
Whether it is an ordinary tribesman, a tribe leader, or even an entire tribe, once they lose their value, they will be abandoned without mercy.
And when she later became the high priest beneath one person and above ten thousand people, and understood more clearly the difficulty of resurrection, she never had such a sweet dream again.
The price of resurrecting a dead creature out of thin air is so high that it is almost equivalent to the increase in strength granted by the gods to millions of tribesmen.
However, ordinary people know nothing about this and do not want to believe it.
Because those hypocritical gods will always hold rituals regularly and resurrect some heroes who faked their death to deceive them.
"It seems that I thought things too simply." Sumo shook his head helplessly, sighing secretly in his heart.
As soon as human beings hear that this life is 100% to lead to death, the guardian will immediately explode and resist.
But the foreign races are indeed different. With gods pressing on their heads, they don't have much fear of death at all.
What is resurrection, what enters the realm of God after death, and what becomes an envoy of God.
Taking advantage of the tribe's reverence and worship of the gods and their yearning for the afterlife, they weave beautiful lies one after another to keep the tribe firmly under control.
As early as the beginning of building this belief system, these gods had carefully planned how to make the people of the tribe willingly sacrifice for them.
As Connie said before, even if these aliens know the truth now, it will not help.
They have been deeply brainwashed by the belief in gods and almost unconditionally obey the orders and arrangements of gods.
no way.
Sumo couldn't help but sigh.
The normal solution seems to be unworkable. To deal with aliens, we have to fight fire with fire.
But before that, we still have to figure out what the purpose of their sudden attack is.
"This." Connie showed some hesitation.
With the strength of the Austrian tribe, they can only be considered as middle and lower reaches within the alien tribe. Although they can serve on the table, they are far from being able to participate in important decisions.
So even if she tried her best to inquire about the war plan, the information she finally got was so varied that it was difficult to tell the truth from the false.
However, by combining the information, she managed to come up with several possible reasons.
"Tell me, no matter whether the news is true or false, it is better than my random guessing." Sumo affirmed.
"There are three possibilities." Connie said thoughtfully,
"First, this war may be a huge sacrifice ceremony, and they intend to achieve a special purpose through this ceremony. It is very likely that the moment the sacrifice is completed, it will directly defeat the human beings on the front line.
All defenses, and sacrifices, the more people die, the better. This may also be the reason why the royal family has occupied the east but has not attacked yet."
"Second, it is related to the current death tide disaster. They want to trick humans into using powerful weapons to catalyze the death tide. After all, human territories are built on the surface of the earth and are relatively fixed. It is difficult to move anywhere in a short time.
Movement, but alien races are different. All major alien tribes have the ability to move camps. Once the scale of the death wave continues to expand, the infected bodies will eventually help the alien tribes defeat humans."
"Third, I guess that the current war is likely to be related to the topic chosen for the first gambling battle, but I can't figure out the details. You humans must be more familiar with this aspect. You might as well think more about what kind of topic to choose.
It will be necessary to launch a war in advance to prepare the ground."
Fortunately, a chess piece was placed within the alien race in advance, and Connie's guess opened up new ideas for Sumo.
He lowered his head and thought, and began to analyze these three possibilities one by one.
The first is the conjecture about sacrifice.
The probability of this is indeed very high. Soldiers are expensive and fast. Once the millions of troops of the Yusan family are assembled, it will undoubtedly be more difficult for the aliens to break through the defense line and invade the surrounding areas.
However, the alien army has been stationed at the border for a long time, but has yet to launch an offensive. This strange behavior of waiting for the human army to gather is really suspicious.
However, it is actually not complicated to verify whether this is related to sacrifice.
If such a huge sacrificial circle really existed, its layout would definitely leave many traces.
As long as he goes to the front line in person and investigates carefully, he can easily discover the clues.
Secondly, it catalyzes the death wave disaster.
It has to be said that this guess is very accurate and is highly consistent with the strategic goals of the alien race.
Human civilization on earth relies on technology, and technology relies heavily on various aspects of infrastructure.
Population can be easily moved, but infrastructure is like the foundation.
Once you give up, it will undoubtedly take months to rebuild.
If during this period, the death tide disaster spreads rapidly, reaches a large scale, and launches an impact on human territory, then the technological upper limit of various human territories will be directly blocked. This will undoubtedly be a more difficult problem than a direct attack by the alien army.
"But this is easy to avoid, as long as you don't use powerful fire weapons to cause superposition of destructive power."
When this idea came to Sumo's mind, he suddenly realized that the top management of mankind indeed had far-sightedness, and that Musk's judgment on the future battlefield was completely correct.
Is this a mistake?
In order to prevent powerful weapons from falling into the hands of aliens, the research and development and use of them were directly abandoned.
It not only avoids risks, but also ensures that the evolution speed of the death tide disaster is controllable, directly avoiding the emergence of a huge hidden danger.
The development of exoskeleton armor will further reduce the accumulation of destructive power, especially when dealing with infected bodies, making it almost possible to kill without injury.
If the aliens really hold on to this idea and wait for the pressure on humans to speed up the production of powerful weapons, they may suffer a big loss in the next battle.
As for Connie's third guess, the war was related to the first gambling fight.
"What kind of gambling scene requires war to set the stage?"
Sumo thought carefully, and after a while he still had no choice but to deny all the thoughts that came to his mind.
The first two guesses are well-founded, and there is a lot of information to assist in verification and judgment.
There was so little information about this item that he couldn't guess it, and there was no way to verify it.
"Fortunately, we still have four months to collect information. During this time, I will speed up and try to collect as much information about gambling as possible for you."
Connie bit her lip and considered giving up.
If her current behavior were to be known to the royal family, even hundreds of deaths would not be enough.
But there is no way, since she became the high priest of Oreo, her wealth and life have been completely bound to Soma.
The two of them are both prosperous and destructive.
Furthermore, once the final winner is Somo, the Austrian tribe will receive unprecedented development support in the wasteland continent.
Such risks and benefits, given to any alien, would make them extremely excited.
"But what are you going to do next? Let the war on the front line continue?"
Thinking of Somo being teleported into the city beast, Connie frowned and said with lingering fear:
"Fortunately, you have the means to escape. We still know too little about the existence of the city beast, and we have no idea that it can interfere with the nearby space."
city beast
Su Mo pursed his lips, tapped his fingers on the table, and thought quietly.
"Do you have any information about the Shadow Beast Clan?"
"Yes, I specially collected a lot of them." Connie nodded immediately and used magic to condense a diamond-shaped black and white crystal.
Somo took it and put it on his forehead, and a message came instantly.
It has to be said that the Shadow Beast Clan is a bit strange. Their strength can be both high and low. It is a special race with very serious polarization in strength.
Because of their special shape, they have to live in the shadow of an object since birth.
The stronger the items stored, the stronger the potential for growth and the faster the speed.
On the contrary, if you only store some ordinary mortal objects, your combat effectiveness may not be as direct as that of a frogman when you reach adulthood.
The city beast is a relatively powerful existence among the storage bodies that the shadow beast clan can choose.
Once its body is formed, it will have combat power no less than that of a demigod.
At the same time, more and more special spaces can be created inside, and powerful dead warriors can be cultivated to protect themselves.
However, the flaws of the city beast are also obvious.
This kind of powerful existence cannot be occupied by ordinary shadow beasts alone. It often requires thousands of shadow beasts to enter the city beast's body together to erase its consciousness and store it.
And so many shadow beasts exist in one body, the most direct impact is that the shadow beasts after being stored will also be affected by the impact of each other, and they will lose their minds along with the city beasts.
The final result is what it is now. The city beast has become a tool that only has instincts and can be controlled by simple spells.
"Fight fire with poison. If you can't deal with the dead warriors inside, then start with the city beasts."
Thinking of the spell that has been strengthened by the system, it can directly teleport people to a designated point.
Somo felt a little happy. Since it was a tool, was it possible for it to be controlled by him?
As long as the system is used to enhance the way to use the city beast, or a special driving spell is used, once the city beast is controlled, it will undoubtedly be a huge blow to the alien race.
Going further, if powerful city beasts can be recognized by the system as targets that can be upgraded and strengthened.
Then this is so sexy!
If we could completely control the city beast and let him have self-awareness, it would be like laying a huge thunder within the alien race.
If it is detonated at a critical moment, the effect will probably directly establish a partial victory!
