Looking at the livid regent Obsidian on the seat, neither the general nor the lord dared to say a word.
Last night, after capturing the undefended Moonlight Fortress, the new deputy commander-in-chief of the coalition, Parrot, led the three elite legions of the Imperial Capital and the Feiyun Legion of the air force to pursue the enemy and raid Dico Town.
However, the result of this raid was completely beyond everyone's expectations. Parrot was besieged by an army of more than half a million undead in Dicko Town. The First Army and the Feiyun Army who were pursuing the enemy were defeated by the "defeated army" and the undead.
Attacked from both sides, the entire army was annihilated; at dawn, Commander Parrott led less than 30,000 remaining soldiers of the Second and Third Army to break through the siege.
Parrott, deputy commander-in-chief of the coalition forces and commander-in-chief of this raid, was seriously injured and fell into a coma.
The whereabouts of First Army Commander Yefa and Deputy Army Commander Kerry are unknown.
The whereabouts of Rometty, commander of Feiyun Legion, are unknown.
The commander of the Second Army, Frazier, was killed in action, and the deputy commander of the Second Army, Toros, was killed in action.
Newkel, the commander of the Third Army, was slightly injured, and Longji, the deputy commander, was killed.
Stiller, Baroque, and Stebil retreated in defeat and were slightly injured.
The whereabouts of Pegasus, the powerful demon emperor-level royal family, are unknown.
The general situation of "unaccounted for" is a disaster, such a heavy loss! This is not the cannon fodder of the lords, but the real elite army of the imperial capital! Not only those Demon Emperor-level generals, but also the Demon Emperor-level generals
Pegasus is ruined!
If the previous Battle of Moonlight Fortress gave Obsidian a resounding slap in the face, then the Battle of Dico Town was a punch that knocked out teeth♀ It was a fiasco that could not be excused.
Originally, due to the distance between Dick Town and Moonlight Fortress, they could directly send reinforcements if they sensed something was wrong. However, the enemy obviously took this into consideration and deliberately cut off the connection between the two places. Scouts or soldiers asking for help were intercepted and killed without exception, until Pa
Lott didn't realize it until he broke out of the encirclement. At this time, sending troops to respond could no longer save the defeat.
"Your Highness! The scouts reported that the undead army has evacuated Dico Town. It's just..."
"Just what?" Obsidian's face was terrifyingly gloomy.
"The armor and weapons left behind by the corpses were all taken away by the enemy, and a considerable number of corpses are still missing."
"Hmph!" Hei Yao slapped the table, and the table immediately turned into powder, leaving everyone in silence.
"Your Highness's spirit army took away weapons and corpses, which shows that they also suffered heavy losses in this ambush. They need to use corpses to replenish their troops. Even a magician of the Demon Emperor level can transform a large number of corpses with the help of a special altar.
It will take quite some time to fight for the undead. If we don't miss this opportunity, I think we should be able to send out a large army to pursue the undead. Even if we can't annihilate them, we can still revive their morale." It was Geraint who spoke. Although he knew that Obsidian was currently angry, he took the lead and spoke.
It's not a good thing, but the battle situation is changeable and opportunities are fleeting, so I can't worry about so much.
"Everyone understands the intention of the Undead Army to take away weapons and corpses. You don't need to emphasize it." Obsidian snorted coldly, "The Dark Moon Army is very cunning. If we pursue them now, who can guarantee that they will not make the same mistake as Parrott?
"
Geraint argued with reason: "Your Highness, behind the town of Dico is the Reis Wilderness. The terrain is not suitable for an ambush. You can first send an army to test the reality, and then prepare a large army behind to attack."
Zhuo Qie spoke up: "In the current situation, it is not advisable to rush forward. The morale of our army cannot be hit anymore, even if it is just a small loss. The reason for Lott's failure was that he was ambushed by the Dark Moon while underestimating the enemy.
, according to the balance of power, even if the opponent has an army of undead, our troops and combat power still have the upper hand. I propose to fight steadily, occupy Dico Town first, and then slowly restore vitality and morale, and send out scouts to investigate in various ways to determine the enemy.
After the military moves, we will determine the next specific action."
Obsidian nodded slightly] Che's proposal was safer, especially the sentence "Our army still has the upper hand" deeply touched my heart.
"but……"
"Okay! Geraint!" Geraint was interrupted before he could finish his words. Obsidian's slightly narrowed eyes flashed with a glint of coldness, "Currently, Parrott is seriously injured and unconscious, so you will be the deputy commander again.
The current mission is to occupy Dico Town and try to stabilize the morale of the army, do you understand?"
Geraint did not say any more and just gave a military salute: "As you command, Your Highness."
After the meeting, Geraint was ordered to reward the soldiers and stabilize their morale. When he came to the military supply office, he happened to meet Zhuo Qie, who was in charge of logistics.
"General, please wait a moment, the labor supplies will be ready in about an hour."
Geraint nodded slightly and suddenly said: "Lord Zhuoqie, I really don't agree with the suggestion you made today. At this time, blindly seeking stability will only give Dark Moon more breathing time. Why don't we go and give advice together?
Once, His Highness Obsidian?"
Zhuo Qie was taken aback, ordered the left and right to retreat, and said: "General, some of the words may be inappropriate, but I still want to say it. When Samoel's Underworld Snake Legion was dispatched in the Chiyou territory, the general was obviously in conflict with
The regent had the opposite opinion. In the end, the entire army of the Dark Snake Legion sent by the regent was annihilated. When we attacked the Moonlight Fortress, our army encountered stubborn resistance and suffered heavy losses. We were unable to achieve success as ordered by the regent. The real reason was that
Dark Moon showed strength far beyond our expectations. Even the regent sent two large air legions, but still failed to take down the fortress. It was not that the general's command was wrong. However, the regent felt that his face was damaged, so he still dismissed the fortress due to poor command.
The position of deputy commander of the general. Later, Parrot captured the undefended Moonlight Fortress. When the regent ordered to pursue the defeated Dark Moon army, the general tried to stop him, but the regent refused to listen, resulting in a tragic defeat. Now the regent has obviously taken a break to reorganize the army.
The general once again objected to the intention and proposed to pursue the enemy... If the general's judgment failed and morale was even lower, it would be fine. If the general's strategy succeeded and he won a victory, it would be like slapping the regent in the face in front of everyone.
,General...do you understand what I mean?"
Geraint stared at Zhuoqie for a moment, and finally sighed: "I understand what you mean."
"The general is not a dull person. You should be able to guess the reason why His Highness the Regent clearly hates you, but re-appoints you as deputy commander-in-chief at this time."
This regained deputy commander is not a bad job, and the next battle with Dark Moon will be even more difficult. If he wins, His Highness Obsidian has the wisdom to know people, but if he fails, he will be a dead ghost.
Geraint smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "I am just a soldier who only wants to win the war, that's all."
"There is no independent military or politics..." Zhuo Qie also sighed: "Forget it, I am the one who talks too much... I sincerely ask the general to think more about everything and try to be as useful as possible. The empire needs a pillar like the general. "
Geraint nodded solemnly: "I understand, I will keep these words in mind. Thank you Lord Zhuoqie for your guidance and friendship."
"I didn't say anything nonsense today. I just discussed with the general the supply of supplies." As he said that, Zhuoqie and Geraint looked at each other and smiled.
Watching Geraint leave the camp, a strange smile appeared on Zhuo Qie's face.
Although these words were not enough to create a wedge, they had effectively planted a nail in Geraint's heart, causing him to worry even more. In any case, the Imperial Army took a temporary break to reorganize. Ju Dark Moon was delaying time. The goal was achieved.
Controlled by the master-servant contract and poison, Zhuo Qie is now firmly tied to Dark Moon's ship. For the sake of life and power, he has no choice but to bring down Obsidian, the old master, at all costs. Currently, it is only secretly instigated. A small flame, just waiting for the opportunity to come, as the most important internal response, will become the key figure in determining the entire war.
Chen Rui, who was far away in Bai Ling's territory, didn't know about Zhuo Qie's little actions. Because he had swallowed the power of the demigod's soul. Especially in the Winter Domain, he had a hint of soul aura, so he successfully got the recognition of the ruins and took it with him. A group of lanterns entered the ruins.
The ruins are actually a dilapidated castle of alchemical civilization. Due to severe damage during the war, coupled with its age and lack of energy, most things are no longer usable.
In the secret storage vault, Chen Ju found the heart lanterns of the lanterns. There were thousands of them, but many of them had broken and lost their effectiveness.
According to the power level of the elves, the heart lanterns are divided into three types from high to low: gold, silver, and iron. The first characters of their names are also gold, white, and black respectively. Ginny's heart lantern is golden, and it is also golden. There are nearly a hundred heart lanterns, and about thirty of them are still intact. They will be a powerful boost.
Although the immortal bodies of the lanterns are powerful, their resurrections are not endless. The golden lantern can be resurrected four times, the silver lantern can be resurrected three times, and the iron lantern can be resurrected twice. Heart lanterns that exceed the number of resurrections will break and lose their effectiveness. , unless repaired at a very high cost.
Chen Rui learned from the memory he obtained that the Heart Lamp can not only be repaired. It can also be advanced through special materials and energy modifications. Each level of advancement is quite difficult, and the higher the level, the more so. If the advancement fails , then the level of the heart lamp will drop by one level, the gold lamp will drop to the silver lamp, the silver lamp will drop to the sticker lamp, and the iron lamp will directly break and fail if it fails to advance.
Generally speaking, the level of the golden heart lamp is already at the limit. In the alchemical civilization, there were alchemists who used secret recipes to transform the dark red heart lamp that exceeded the limit. Unfortunately, the success rate is extremely low, and if it fails, it will be scrapped directly.
Chen Rui has experienced the illusion of the realm, and understands that these lanterns are female slaves who are completely obedient to his master. They are not only powerful soldiers on the battlefield, but also beauties in the bed. However, the illusion is an illusion, and he does not dare to have any evil intentions in reality. , even if you have a dragon body with dual cultivation skills, you will inevitably run out of gas when faced with a terrifying number of beauties. Moreover, if you really get so many women back, even the always generous Ah Xina was about to grab a hatchet and come out to chop people.
After all, Chen Rui is also the master now, so there is no need to continue hiding it. He scooped out a large amount of spiritual fruits in front of the lanterns. So many good things that are like the essence of top energy almost dazzled those beautiful eyes.
, the lanterns all cheered in surprise.
The higher the level of the heart lantern, the more time and energy it takes to resurrect it. With Jinsha's help, Chen Ju took out Ginny's golden heart lantern and gave it to Jinsha together with the spirit fruit.
After the excitement, the lanterns began to get busy in batches. Some were making energy blocks, some were cleaning items in the ruins, some were resurrecting their friends, and some were repairing equipment. They seemed to be in full swing.
Although these spiritual fruits are far from enough to repair the entire castle, didn't the master say that? As long as you can get this top-level energy essence fruit after a while, sooner or later, all your friends will be resurrected, brand new
The castle will be back on the ground too!
There are many things in the ruins that interest Chen Rui, especially those tall constructed war puppets. He has seen the combat effectiveness of these things in the trial. They are simply great weapons in war. Unfortunately, they are basically damaged. Deng Ling
We can barely repair it, but it will take a long time.
Compared with the constructed war puppets, the lanterns were helpless against the damaged crystal behemoths and crystal monsters, but Chen Rui didn't, because he had a powerful scientist wife, and with Laura's knowledge and level of making golden men
, as long as you understand the principles, repairing these things should be easy.
There are many strange things in the ruins, including some potions, including the black potion. Unfortunately, the potions are not valid for a long time. Even the black potion can only last for a hundred years. These are no longer usable and are still used as waste.
Scoop it out and give it to the old man to study. When Chen Rui first came to the demon world, he carried the name of the successor of an ancient alchemy master. Unexpectedly, his words came true, and now he has lived up to his name.
In addition to the huge gains, Chen Yanshi realized an important problem. Super systems are generally invincible, but there are occasional exceptions. In addition to this trial, when facing the demigod-level field in Rainbow Valley, the super system is also unable to
Use. In Chen Rui's situation, if it were not for the newly comprehended four major areas, the failure of the super system would mean that the entire combat effectiveness is inferior to ordinary strong men of the same level.
Now that Chen Rui has S-level mental power, he can sense more things more clearly. He remembers that he could feel the super system during the trial, but could not use skills. Then he woke up from the illusion and was able to use the super system.
♀It should not be the problem of the super system itself, but his own problem,
Chen Rui was vaguely awakened. His understanding of super systems seemed to have entered into some misunderstandings. This awakening meant that he would change to a new perspective and understand more of the mysteries of super systems.
Unfortunately, the Dark Moon War is now urgent and every second counts. He does not have enough time to study slowly and must immediately continue the plan for the Bai Ling territory.
Although the battle caused the main cave in the Loeb region to collapse a lot, the main body of the cave was still intact under the protection of the dragon language inscriptions. Many of the surviving laborers escaped. This time, Sikali delivered
The mission was successfully completed, and he needed to return to Bailing City immediately.
Chen Pu thought carefully for a while, and ordered some lanterns to stay in the ruins to resurrect the intact heart lanterns. The rest of the lanterns disguised themselves, left the swamp, and headed to the nearby town of Ronnie, where there was an eyeliner of the dark devil♀The eyeliner would bring the lanterns with them.
They went to a certain dark demon stronghold in Bailing City to wait.
As for the Medusa tribe, after witnessing the battle between Chen Rui and Jacob, they had completely surrendered to this powerful master. Chen Rui's order to them was to be ready to go out at any time.
After arranging all this, Chen Rui opened the door to the starry sky and returned to Bailing City in an instant. The time given to him by Xikali was ten days, but now he has completed the task ahead of schedule. I believe that one of Xikali's trump cards has also been used.
It’s time to untie it. (To be continued., (shuhaige.) Vote for recommendation, monthly vote,,. Follow-me-read enwen-xuexue-ulou and remember!
