Lords of All: The Moving Castle of the Dead

The Eyrie.

A desperate city located on a high cliff.

Since the establishment of the Eagle's Nest City, very few races have been able to attack here.

In order to ensure the safety of the city, the harpy used magic to create high cliffs.

This is a high cliff with no roads. If you want to reach the top of the cliff, you can only climb up, which undoubtedly increases the difficulty.

Of course, if you are a magician, you can also use wind magic to fly upward, or use space teleportation magic to teleport up.

No matter which way you climb to the top, the Harpy won't sit still.

The Eagle's Nest City is their holy city. Any non-harpy race that wants to enter the Eagle's Nest City will be besieged by the harpies.

It is difficult for outsiders to know what is in the Eagle's Nest City. They protect the Eagle's Nest City very well.

Zhang Peng gathered a large amount of information, and after summarizing it, he gave Li Ziyu a conclusion, which was just a speculative conclusion.

The Eagle's Nest City is likely to be the inheritance place of the Harpy.

Their history, knowledge, and beliefs are most likely concentrated in the Eagle's Nest City.

In other words, this is the highest institution of learning and the center of belief of the Harpy, so it is protected by the Harpy.

If they break through the Eagle's Nest City, it means that the harpies will lose their inheritance and belief, and their knowledge and culture will die.

Regardless of whether this conclusion is correct or not, Li Ziyu plans to directly attack the Eagle's Nest City.

After bombarding the Eagle's Nest City, all the harpies rushed towards the Undead Fortress as if they were crazy.

Various wind magics were thrown over as if they were free of charge.

There was a riot in the forest, and countless monsters ran around, forming a beast tide, trying to attack the undead fortress.

"No matter what is inside the Eagle's Nest City, there is no doubt that directly attacking the Eagle's Nest City is the right choice." The battle outside had begun, but Li Ziyu was drinking juice in the cemetery.

As a main city-level building mainly used for defense, of course it must be used as a shelter in times of war.

At this time, Zhang Peng was standing beside him, not in the Gopher Fortress.

In formulating the battle plan to deal with the Harpy, Li Ziyu's Undead Fortress still serves as the main force.

If the main artillery of the Undead Fortress cannot hit the Eagle's Nest City, Liu Xingxing's treasure-hunting cat-man special operations team will be the main attacker.

The treasure hunting cat team can exert greater combat effectiveness in various strange terrains, such as high cliffs.

Although the treasure-hunting catmen have average combat effectiveness on frontal battlefields, in places such as high cliffs, dungeons, and street battles, their various small pieces can be effective.

Liu Xingxing demonstrated to Li Ziyu that the combat status was no less than that of the special forces in his previous life.

Zhang Peng is the last resort.

That's right, this time Zhang Peng was placed in the finale.

When Li Ziyu and Liu Xingxing failed, Zhang Peng's Gopher Fortress came in handy.

He will dig a tunnel under the high cliff of Eagle's Nest City. If the opponent resists to the end, he will collapse the tunnel and destroy the high cliff and Eagle's Nest City.

The battle had just begun and it was not Zhang Peng's turn to play, so he also came to the Fortress of the Undead and hid in the cemetery with Li Ziyu to watch the fun.

Harpies are born with magic abilities, but their magic abilities are wind and plant types, and their defense is not very strong.

The city walls of the Eagle's Nest City look decent, but in fact they are just a piece of cake, and their defensive capabilities are not at all up to par with the walls of the rat-human city-states.

One hit from the main gun of the Undead Fortress caused a large section of the Eagle's Nest City wall to collapse.

The attacks of the harpies were blocked by the soul protective walls of the Undead Spire and the Undead Monument, and did not fall on the Undead Fortress at all.

The long-range firepower in the Evil Spirit Ark and the Undead Fortress also launched, fighting back at the harpies flying in the sky.

The harpies have fought with the Ratmen for so many years and have a deep understanding of long-range weapons. It is difficult for the undead's long-range weapons to harm them.

Their figures dodge flexibly in the air, throwing out streaks of magic and various seeds with special abilities, bombarding the undead fortress in turn.

Unfortunately, the soul shield's defense was very strong and they couldn't break through it.

Li Ziyu didn't intend to fight with them. His goal was the Eagle's Nest City. As long as he captured the Eagle's Nest City, these harpies would be defeated.

[Ammunition loading...]

[Main gun charging...]

[The bombardment is ready! 】

The Fist of Annihilation fires its second cannon!

Boom!

The little sun set on the Eagle's Nest City again, the city walls collapsed, and the flames of the soul flew away.

The Harpy Queen in the Eagle's Nest City looked at the collapsed city wall, her face pale.

From her position, she could clearly see the huge fortress below and the cannons firing cannonballs towards the Eagle's Nest City.

The true power of the undead was far beyond her imagination.

If this kind of fortress had been used in the war between the undead and the ratmen, the ratmen would have been defeated long ago, and their city would not be able to withstand such a bombardment.

Seeing that the holy city of their own race was being attacked, the Harpies spontaneously gathered from all directions and launched an attack on the Fortress of the Undead.

The intensive attacks created layers of ripples outside the Undead Fortress, but none of the attacks ever landed inside the fortress.

The battle looked fierce. The harpy seemed to have an absolute advantage. The undead could only be passively beaten, and fighting back had no effect.

But in fact, most of their attacks were on the Eagle's Nest City.

How many times can the Eagle's Nest City withstand such bombardments?

The opponent is still only attacking their city wall.

The Queen had no doubt that the cannonball could hit the city directly.

A hawk-god banshee flew into the room from outside and landed behind the queen.

The queen turned around and looked at the banshee. She suppressed the panic in her heart, kept her expression as normal, and asked calmly, "What happened?"

The harpy knelt on one knee, folded her wings, lowered her head and said, "Queen, the undead sent someone to deliver a letter."

The Queen walked up to the Harpy, and she immediately took out the letter and presented it to her.

The letter is written in the undead script, which directly affects the soul. The queen does not need to understand the undead script to understand the meaning of the letter.

The general idea is that the Lord of the Undead does not want the harpies to continue struggling in vain. Surrender is their best choice to avoid greater casualties. The Lord of the Undead asks the harpies to surrender immediately, otherwise a more powerful attack will be launched. , that is what the harpies do not want to see.

The previous two shellings were indeed threatening.

The Lord of the Undead is warning the harpies, it's not that I can't hit you, it's that I don't want to hit you. The walls of the Eagle's Nest City are nothing in front of the cannons of the undead, and it is impossible to block the attack of the undead.

They have the ability to attack, but they just give the Harpy a chance.

The Queen is a smart person. She understood it before Li Ziyu sent the letter.

But as the leader of a clan, she represents the entire race. She cannot surrender like this, otherwise how will her clan treat her.

Persevere, persist a little longer, maybe there will be a turn for the better!

The Harpy Queen secretly gritted her teeth. She wanted to see how powerful the undead were.

In the necropolis.

Zhang Peng looked at the situation outside, waited with Li Ziyu for a while, sighed and said, "It looks like they don't intend to surrender."

Li Ziyu said nonchalantly, "People are like this. They won't shed tears until they see the coffin. I just sent them a letter to tell them. Once I do it, I feel that it's almost the same."

Zhang Peng shook his head, "Even if you blow down all their walls, they won't feel anything. Should they surrender, they still won't."

Li Ziyu laughed happily, "What a coincidence, I feel the same way, so I don't plan to blow up the city wall this time. It just so happens that after the Fist of Nirvana is upgraded, there are still many methods that are useless. Let's try another cannonball. try."

[Replacing ammunition...]

[Ammunition replacement completed, ready to launch! 】

This time, Li Ziyu plans to launch a cannonball that looks like a flower bud, called the "Spear of Flowers from the Other Side."

[Spear of the Flower of the Other Side: Clustered artillery shells, the shells contain 32 special magic tools filled with unstable psychic energy. After being shot into the sky, the "bud" blooms, releasing the special magic tool inside. The special magic tool is shaped like a spear and has a "shock" property. After collision, it will cause the psychic energy in it to explode, thereby generating a sea of ​​psychic fire and burning everything around it. 】

The Spear of the Flower of the Other Side is one of the new artillery shells developed by Li Ziyu after upgrading the Fist of Nirvana.

A single "spear" is less powerful than a psychic explosive bomb, but this thing is a cluster type. It can shoot 32 "spear" in all directions from high altitude, providing a range attack.

Especially the shocking attribute, which is so convenient for destroying ordinary buildings.

"emission!"

Li Ziyu gave an order, and the Fist of Nirvana opened fire, and the bud-shaped Spear of the Flower of the Other Side was shot high into the sky.

The surrounding harpies flapped their wings, trying hard to stop the cannonballs, but there was scorching spiritual fire around the Spear of the Other Shore. When the harpies approached, they would be ignited by the flames, and their whole bodies would be ignited with flames, screaming. Falling from the air.

The Flower Spear of the Other Shore flew high into the sky and arrived at the predetermined position above the Eagle's Nest City. The shells turned around in the air and the flower buds were pointed downwards.

Spiritual energy surged from the bud, and the four "petals" opened, revealing the "spear" inside that shimmered with blue light and sharp edges.

登！

Deng Deng...

The spear was released, slowly detached from the bud, and fell downwards.

Under the acceleration of gravity, the spear fell faster and faster, spiritual energy surged, flames rose, and 32 lines of fire were drawn.

"What is that? Heaven's punishment?" The queen raised her head, looked at the 32 beautiful streams of light falling from the sky, and murmured to herself.

Ding!

The thick-armed "spear" pierced the ground heavily.

The surrounding harpies immediately spread their wings and flew high, looking at the spear that made a crater on the ground in horror.

Boom...click...

The ground suddenly trembled, cracks appeared around the pit, and the vibrations became stronger and stronger. The surrounding buildings shook, and stones and wood fell one after another.

Flames rushed out from the ground where the spears were inserted, and the psychic flames rushed in all directions.

Boom boom boom...

32 spears, 32 landing points, exploded at the same time, forming a sea of ​​​​fire in the Eagle's Nest City.

The building collapsed, and the harpies that had not escaped screamed and were burned to ashes.

The attack of the Spear of the Flower of the Other Shore caused the Eagle's Nest City to become extremely chaotic, and the harpies flew up one after another, flying around the city.

They tried to put out the fire, but water was thrown on it to no avail.

Those blue flames are not ordinary flames and cannot be extinguished with water.

There were screams and wails of harpies everywhere.

The Queen stood on a high place, overlooking the city, dumbfounded, unable to say a word for a long while.

A harpy flew from the sky and landed next to the queen, "Your Majesty, the undead tribe has sent a new letter."

The Queen looked away and took the letter.

It was still written in undead characters, and the meaning above was still simple.

Probably, this attack is just the beginning. If the Harpy is unwilling to obey the undead, such bombardment will continue and attack the Eagle's Nest City until the Eagle's Nest City is completely destroyed.

Looking at this letter, the Harpy Queen's face became extremely ugly.

The shelling that destroyed the city wall was enough to give her a headache, but this kind of attack now frightened her even more than the previous shelling.

She recalled the scene where the stream of light fell just now, and how many residents of the Eagle's Nest City were killed with just one blow.

The number of harpies is already small, and the people living in the Eagle's Nest City are not the tyrannical harpies that people think, but people with high moral standards.

The old harpies, the harpies who are not good at attacking and only like to study magic, all live in the Eagle's Nest City.

In addition to these harpies, there are also libraries, religious statues, etc. in the city.

If the Eagle's Nest City is destroyed, it will mean that the history and culture of the Harpies have been destroyed. Even if the Harpy race still exists, it will be difficult for them to return to their current state.

Their civilization will retreat rapidly.

In a few hundred years, no, a few decades, the harpies will become an inferior race.

No doubt, this is very easy to happen.

Compared with the technological flow of the rat people, once the magic inheritance is interrupted, it will take an extremely long time to make up for it.

Many things will disappear into history and never be found again.

The things in the Eagle's Nest City were summarized bit by bit by the Harpy after thousands of years of success and failure.

Once these are destroyed by the undead, the harpy's magical heritage will be cut off!

Thinking of this, the Queen had already made her decision.

Even if she surrenders to the undead, even if she bows her head, she will keep the Eagle's Nest City.

This is more important than saving the Harpy!

He took a deep breath and said to the people who came to report, "Go and reply to the undead and say that we are willing to surrender, but they must ensure the safety of the Eagle's Nest City."

The harpy who reported the news was stunned and said urgently, "Your Majesty, no, we cannot surrender! We can still fight!"

The Queen shook her head and said in a tired voice, "No, we lost. The Undead have the ability to destroy the Eagle's Nest City. This is enough. We must surrender and cannot let our inheritance disappear like this."

The harpy looked at the queen blankly, her face full of struggle. She did not want to surrender. The harpy was free. They had wings and flew in the air. No one could ever imprison them.

But now, the queen wants them to surrender.

Can't accept it.

What can I do if I can't accept it?

What the Queen said makes sense. The undead have the ability to destroy the Eagle's Nest City. If they cannot stop the undead's attack, they will have no choice but to surrender.

After struggling for a long time, the harpy sighed, flapped its wings and flew towards the undead.

"The attack seems to have stopped." Zhang Peng said doubtfully.

"Well, it's stopped. It seems they are going to surrender." Li Ziyu said cheerfully.

He wasn't worried at all.

The harpies are very smart. After they have shown their force, if the other party still resists to the end, that would be really stupid.

Sizing up the situation is the key point.

An undead walked out of the wall, came to Li Ziyu, and reported to him that the Harpy had sent an envoy to meet him.

"Ha, here you go, get ready to negotiate." Li Ziyu stood up, put down the juice in his hand, straightened his clothes, and walked out.

In order to negotiate, the Harpy created a clearing.

Li Ziyu came out of the Fortress of the Undead and took the Black Warrior to the negotiation location.

From the direction of the Eagle's Nest City, a group of harpies flew over and landed on the open space for negotiation.

The leader is a beauty who is so beautiful that men can be excited just by looking at her.

She has big golden waves, charming eyebrows, bright lips, and wears a gorgeous and colorful dress, but her arms are wings with a pair of eagle claws.

This is none other than the Queen of the Harpies!
