Chapter 369 Disaster Strikes
The Ferro Empire attacked the underground world just when another empire was at war with the orcs. Unlike Saint Oteros, the will to attack the underground world was decided by the emperor, not the lord of the country.
This determined that the war was the product of careful and sufficient preparation, and the purpose was to obtain the rich mineral deposits and treasures of the underground world, rather than simply to conquer.
Few emperors were stupid enough to conquer the underground world that their ancestors had never been to for the sake of empty reputation. There were indeed such things in the past, but the facts proved that it was not worth it at all.
When the patrol team led by Mistellin fought fiercely with the shield apostle of the Eye of Judgment, the blood knights led by Shen Xuan also set up several temporary garrisons near the Desolate City, which could advance or retreat and was difficult to be blocked by others.
The elite of the Blood Cross followed the Blood Knights more than ten kilometers behind them. After 4 or 5 hours of rapid march, they arrived ten kilometers away from the Desolate City. The tragic battle was almost coming to an end.
Surrounding the Desolate City, light and small catapults constantly destroyed the solid walls. What came into view was the well-trained ground army of the Empire, with infantry phalanxes in front and priest phalanxes and mage phalanxes in the back, scattered and clearly divided into several large legions.
The scene in the Desolate City was much more tragic, with corpses everywhere. The situation was on the side of the Ferro Empire. Dusk City had no support in the Desolate City, but this fact could be discovered from the tattered walls. If the Blood Knight really rushed up stupidly, it would be like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth.
Underground, Shen Xuan's field of vision was very far away. Generally speaking, only he could discover others before others discovered him. When he decided to order the Blood Knight to retreat and prepare to wait for new reinforcements and unite with other players, he suddenly felt an inexplicably strong pressure hitting his heart through a distance of dozens of kilometers.
It was a bit like a mental shock, causing him 27,000 damage. Shen Xuan immediately used his skills to track down the person who hurt him with his mind, but found that it was a level 115 player.
As expected, there were so many experts. The Desolate City could not be saved this time.
It took 10 minutes to retreat to a special area and set up several magic traps. The walls of the Desolate City had been smashed by hundreds of small catapults, and many potholes had been formed. The high-level army could even enter the city. It was just to be on the safe side that more cannon fodder was consumed to ensure the greatest safety.
Kalecgos and Lion, the two old guys seemed to be in trouble. Shen Xuan talked to himself when he saw this scene. However, Talengo was closer to Dusk City, so the possibility of problems was much smaller.
Shen Xuan was wondering about the situation inside the Desolate City. One way was to learn from the protagonist in the novel and rush in alone. Anyway, with his strength in the top 50, there were really few people who could stop him except for the demigod.
Besides, he had an incarnation and was not afraid of death.
But what should he do next? Help the two old guys drive the army back? But he was facing an empire. Not to mention the tens of millions of people, millions of soldiers, and countless generals, there were countless players affiliated with the Ferro Empire, and there were many large guilds and organizations. How could he possibly defeat them?
Shen Xuan couldn't do the feat of fighting the world alone, but he was absolutely confident that he could fight the world with a group of people. Shen Xuan estimated the time. It would take 6 minutes to meet the Bloody Cross, 3 hours and 30 minutes to meet the Swordsman Group and the Wizard Group, and 6 hours and 20 minutes. It was a bit dangerous to rely on the Bloody Cross alone. Tu Jiucheng's generals were obviously more talented than his commanders, but now they had to fill the numbers.
Shen Xuan rode a shadow dragon alone into the Desolate City in an absolutely cool and arrogant manner, causing uproar and noise along the way. There were not many dragon knights in the game, and most of them were common goods, such as bone dragon knights and silver dragon knights, while shadow dragons were relatively rare, and there were even fewer players who tamed shadow dragons. It was indeed deserved to receive such generous treatment.
But Shen Xuan is obviously not a dragon rider. The biggest difference between him and a genuine dragon rider is that the skills he has mastered are all separate, and there is no requirement to ride to release them, which greatly weakens the effect of his range attack.
With the soul center, he resisted all the magic along the way. Several high-level players looked at his shiny black equipment with envy, hoping that it would suddenly fall off and then share a few pieces.
The equipment holders on the leaderboard can be seen. It is rare for a lord to be alone, and how can the boss of a force not have a lot of good equipment? Therefore, the players and NPCs who know this fact all attack Shen Xuan.
Shen Xuan, who has a lot of blood, is still in pain after being hit. If it weren't for the pressure from himself and the shadow dragon, his health would never be enough. There are many familiar players below, such as FREEDOM, Teres, and the world of Possa, all of whom are old opponents in the first regional mission, as well as South Korea's lineage, China's Iron Blood Man Club, and Japan's GOLDMOON, which have risen in the past six months.
After traveling thousands of meters, his health dropped to two-thirds. Shen Xuan didn't like to show off after all, so his figure flickered a few times strangely and disappeared over the wall of the Desolate City, leaving behind a lot of curses from players and NPCs.
When he appeared in the Desolate City, Lion and Kalecgos had been waiting for a long time, jumped off the shadow dragon, and followed directly into the center of the city.
"How is Misterine?" Shen Xuan asked the first question. Because of her apprenticeship, Misterine needs to go to the deserted city from time to time for "further training." Now seeing that there is no Misterine beside Ryan, Shen Xuan Xuan asked subconsciously.
Unexpectedly, Ryan told him that Misterin had gone to the north of the city, and Shen Xuan could only continue to negotiate with them.
A few points that need to be made clear are that Twilight City is obliged to rescue Desolate City. We are all subordinates of the fallen temple, but Desolate City is now in such a state of decay that it can really be said that it cannot be worse.
Of course, the rescue could not be in vain. Shen Xuan made several requests, such as recommending him to become a marquis, and training more talents for him. After these things were completed, they began to formally study how to rescue the crisis in the deserted city.
Desolate city walls.
Luna's body was covered in blood, and her armor had cracks caused by violent attacks. Opposite her were several players up to level 100, with only a few Black Knights and Terror Knights assisting her.
Mr. Fang and several others were also there. Although the purpose of the game was for leisure, to be honest, he did not want the city where he stayed to turn into ruins.
Fighting to the death, there is no longer a complete section of the city wall. The city wall with tens of thousands of health points was severely damaged by catapults. The deserted city does not have the defensive barrier of the mage tower, and it relies entirely on the city wall for defense.
Desolate City is like an inland city. It does not have important defense responsibilities in the first place. It is basically undefended in the territory within dozens of kilometers of the city.
These should be the affairs of the fortresses, mazes, and players scattered in the surrounding areas, but because the Ferro Empire destroyed the city's defenses, the deserted city was left vulnerable.
Just as Shen Xuan and the two were discussing how many troops needed to be sent, several knights ran in and said that the city gate was broken and the empire's troops were pouring in.
The faces of the two people changed drastically. "This is really troublesome. Could it be that the Deserted City is really going to fall?" Staring at the ceiling, Kalecgos and Ryan couldn't see a trace of hope on their faces. "It's too late now, unless that The three adults can do it themselves..."
"Either go and take shelter first." Shen Xuan suggested, "Take what you can take away, shrink the defense line, and let's escape along the northern road."
There are 40,000 soldiers gathered outside the city center. There are still 50,000 soldiers fighting against surface forces in the city. Nearly 50,000 soldiers have died in previous battles. They are the players' private army and the garrison in the fortress.
The army marched outwards, and the level 90 wizard summoned demons to support them. It was not enough for the demons to resist the enemy.
It was not clear to anyone present that a demon could last for several seconds in front of a priest of the Eye of Judgment, so a simple sea of demons would not have much effect.
Ryan then recited a spell, and several huge runes lit up from the top of the spell academy several kilometers away. Then, several demons sealed in the deserted city were released.
There were three level 125 abyss lords in total. The three intact demons emerged from the underground of the academy and had been sealed for hundreds of years for research. The abyss lords who reappeared were extremely manic and did not distinguish between friend and foe.
As for the hundreds of thousands of residents in the deserted city... the two of them glanced at the residents who were fleeing in panic in the city. They would be more or less purified. Even if they did not have the characteristics of good or evil, the church would still judge them as long as they were with evil.
At the exit of the city center, rows of troops were layered to protect the two lords as they left. There were still many soldiers who needed to stay behind. What awaited them would be a road of no return.
The two of them mounted their horses respectively, with Shen Xuan riding on the shadow dragon.
"Lord, there is one more thing I need to ask of you." Ryan said mysteriously but nervously.
There was a small key in Shen Xuan's hand. It was only half made of stone. This was not a key to a buried treasure, but a special foreign object that contained countless magic rules.
A key can open something.
"Perhaps you have guessed it. This key is used to unlock a level 15 magic circle arranged underground in Desolate City. The other half is on Kalecgos. Since Desolate City has been repeatedly attacked and rebuilt by the surface world, this magic circle has been It has also been used several times.”
"This level 15 spell is called Corruption Barrier. After opening the enchantment, everything dozens of kilometers around Desolate City will turn into an abyss environment. As long as residents below level 15 stay inside, they will be corrupted in a short time. Become a demon and increase your level by 10 levels.”
"Soldiers with higher levels will also be corrupted, but the process is long and often takes several years before it breaks out. In short, you can ask Kalecgos for the other half of the key to form a complete key, and then you can figure it out. "
"Old guy, are you crazy? How many of these residents are relatives of soldiers? Do you want to turn them all into demons?"
Hearing Kalecgos's voice, Ryan also became angry. "It's better than dying directly in the army of the Ferro Empire. I won't be merciful. Anyway, I decided to do this."
When Ryan finished speaking resolutely, Kalecgos finally had to agree to his request. He had the wisdom of the devil and still retained a minimal amount of humanity, so he would refuse, but in the end, looking at the overall situation, he had to admit the significance of this thing. major.
The Corruption Barrier has been used three times in history, and each time it created hundreds of thousands of demons with an average level of 25, which repeatedly caused headaches for the armies in the surface world. Even the armies they entered were infected and turned into demons. Level 15 spells, In other words, this forbidden magic circle is really terrifying.
Shen Xuan immediately prepared to open the Corruption Barrier after getting the key. Otherwise, if he didn't consume some of the enemy's troops, even Dusk City would suffer the same disaster.
The resistance continued, and the army of the Ferro Empire was advancing little by little. The elite were concentrated on dealing with the Abyss Lord. Shen Xuan drove the Shadow Dragon and suddenly flew to the top of the Desolate City, where the magic circle was located.
A vast earth dome like the starry sky, with stalactite-like cone rock columns hanging down, dust flying everywhere, and several shield apostles and bow apostles were patrolling everywhere.
There were also several players.
The Ferro Empire knew more or less about the Corruption Barrier and didn't want the disaster to happen, but they knew very little and could only take precautions.
Shen Xuan put the key on the magic circle, as if it was sucked in, and the key shattered instantly. The reddish-brown magic circle gradually absorbed power and became clear, emitting an evil glow.
This move exposed Shen Xuan's existence. Sensing the evil, the players blocked Shen Xuan.
