Lord of the Earth

Chapter 121 The Gathering of Heroes, the War Begins

Lord's mansion.

Qingwen, in a light yellow dress, brought a cup of tea made from "fragrant white lotus seeds" to the leaders who came to "discuss affairs".

Then, stood behind Xia Tian!
On the left and right sides of the hall, the chief and deputy commanders of many territories gathered together for the first time.

In terms of combat and military affairs, there are Zhao Yun, Wu Song, Gao Shun, Hua Rong, Ding Xiu, Shen Lian, Daniu... In terms of political affairs and logistics, there are Jia Xu, Hua Tuo, Li Ru, Zhu Youxiao, Pao Ding...

Unknowingly, Xia Tian suddenly discovered that his territory is now considered "a wealth of talents".

If these people in front of us were placed in the chaotic period of ancient China, they would have been enough to become the core team of a separatist prince!
In addition, Huang Yaoshi and Gu Lao are also listed.

However, the two are sitting in the "VIP" position representing the guests.

Because once the dark elves captured Xia Tian's territory, Huang Yaoshi's "Peach Blossom Island" would inevitably be affected, so he was invited to participate.

Gu Lao is covered in a black robe, mainly because he is worried that his undead form will scare the descendants of the human race in the territory.

"In the current situation, there is no doubt that we and the night elves are already eyeing each other. Once we start a war, we will never stop dying. One battle will determine the outcome! I don't know, do you have any suggestions?"

Xia Tian informs everyone of the information just harvested.

Although after "Calling Soul" obtained a thousand terracotta warriors and horses.

Judging from the strength on paper alone, the human side is actually no less than the night elves, and may even slightly win!

However, the outcome of the battle obviously does not simply depend on paper strength.

Weather, location, people and...

Every aspect will affect the final outcome of a battle.

"The next is to attack the enemy, the next is to attack the soldiers, and the next is to attack the city!"

"In this battle, since the foreign race is preparing to attack the city, we, as the defensive side, have already taken advantage of the geographical advantage; everyone in your lord's territory is not afraid of war and death, this is harmony between people; unfortunately, it is difficult to fully understand the nature and time. Occupy... otherwise, the odds of winning are [-]%!"

Jia Xu twirled his beard, lost in thought.

Both dark elves and kobolds belong to underground creatures and are not resistant to sunlight, while humans are not good at fighting in the dark. If this battle can be fought in the daytime, it will have a greater advantage for humans...

However, there are not many living soldiers in the territory, and the main combat power is "dead spirits", which may be more affected during the day.

This battle can only be started at night in the end!

"Therefore, we should try our best to play the role of the 'Three Thousand Undead Soldiers' in the Yin Gathering Land. These undead are not strong in combat, but they are not afraid of death or poison. We can replace them with more Sharp weapons, and poison on them. Then, let them fight with death in exchange for wounds!"

Li Ru's eyes flickered.

The current population of Xia Tian's territory is indeed too small, and everyone's life can be said to be very precious.

If after defeating the night elves, the residents of the territory were also killed or injured, such a result is obviously meaningless!

"Why don't you fill these undead soldiers with 'gunpowder' and 'fire oil'?"

"After the undead soldiers and the kobolds fight together, you can use the 'Thunderbolt Car' to launch incendiary stone bombs, or use the 'Rocket' to ignite it. Perhaps, it will have a miraculous effect!"

Well, Xia Tian only learned about it these two days.

Those craftsmen in Zhu Youxiao's original territory have already worked out "black powder".

Although the power is limited, it cannot cause much damage to creatures of the mortal level, but for the kobolds who are no more than the fourth rank of the mortal level, the lethality should be enough. After adding fierce fire oil, they can even rush into the crowd of kobolds while burning. Remarkable!
"Cough cough!"

Xia Tian coughed slightly.

The owner of the "dead soldiers" was sitting nearby, and a group of people kept discussing how to make these "dead soldiers" be "cannon fodder", isn't it a little bad?

"It's okay, undead are not as important as living people. Besides, there is a 'Gathering Place', even if these undead are exhausted, they can be replenished..."

Gu Lao was not angry at all.

He even looked at the "good talents and beautiful jade" of his own race in a "joyful" mood and discussed how to fight against other races!

"I also have some peach trees on my island, which have some special effects."

"If the lord needs it, you can transplant some. After arranging it, it should be able to play a role! And after the war, it can also be used to arrange a large Fengshui array!"

Huang Yaoshi also spoke.

Just like the plum blossoms in Wanmei Villa, the three thousand peach trees on Peach Blossom Island are all mortal woods.

Although the peach tree is also not considered a large-scale wood, it cannot be directly used to make mortal-level war equipment, but the value is definitely not low.

Xia Tian naturally expressed his thanks with surprise on his face.

"My lord, I suggest that we can dig a protective trench and use the river next to it..."

"If possible, the old man hopes to obtain the corpse of a kobold first..."

"Kobolds, do you know the difference between them and dogs? If you throw some meat with seasoning in the battlefield area, can you attract them to eat..."

After that, everyone in the conference hall let go of the discussion and spoke freely.

From the preparations for battle, the construction of fortifications... to how to deal with any accidents in the middle of the battle!
It has to be said that numbers are strength.

Except for Pao Ding and other people who are not good at fighting, and their thinking is a little strange, the suggestions made by most people are very valuable!
In particular, the "river" mentioned by Gao Shun made Jia Xu, who is the main military division, move his eyes.

It seems that something came to mind.

"Then, the only thing that needs to be solved now is how to crack the drow assassin's 'invisibility' ability..."

After some discussions, Xia Tian raised the final difficulty.

Since the battle time is inevitable at night, the drow assassin's powerful stealth ability is a problem that must be solved.

His own "Dragon's Secret Code"'s "Power of Yazi · Hostility Perception" and "Zangfeng Jue" this golden-quality secret method can restrain drow assassins to a certain extent!

But the former can only be used by itself.

Although the latter has the effect of "empowerment", the number of times is limited, and ordinary people cannot quickly learn to master it!
"This, maybe I can help..."

It was "Old Bone" who spoke, and the purple soul fire in the eye sockets under the black robe flickered, and a mental wave was transmitted into the minds of the people present.

"Huh? I seem to have seen some extra pictures!"

Everyone was surprised to find out.

In his own mind, a picture appeared, which was a very three-dimensional and empty picture, without the existence of buildings, only the creatures including the human beings present.

Moreover, everyone's body is shining.

Some people's light is silvery, and some are golden, like lights in the dark night, extremely eye-catching.

Even the residents in the rooms outside the mansion appeared in the same way, but the color of the light was mostly white and green!
"This ability is powerful, enough to make those drow assassins invisible!"

Jia Xu and Li Ru looked at each other with joy on their faces.

There is no doubt that this is a "big killer" against the dark elves, and their positions can be locked even before they show up!
As the last survivor of the human race in another world.

"Old Bone" naturally embodies a certain amount of world luck, and has his own talents and characteristics.

【Old Bone (Silver)】

[Level] Transformation level three

[Talent] the eye of spiritual vision (can see the spiritual power and soul fluctuation of the living body, and gain insight into its 'qualification')
[Characteristics] Cursed shackles (decreased comprehension of the cursed person, greatly increasing the difficulty of upgrading the level and grade), spiritual leader (can 'infect' others to transmit information through one's own spiritual power)
[Description] One of the leaders of the human race in another world, the founder of the human resistance army.

【Remarks】Fortunateness and misfortune depend on it, and misfortunes and blessings depend on it.Human beings with the "curse shackles" feature will condense a new feature after the "curse" is lifted!
Compared with the historical figures who will be revived by the will of the earth and some high-profile illusory figures who have manifested!

Gu Lao's own characteristics and talents are not very outstanding.

It seems that it is about the same as a silver hero with medium potential. It is no wonder that when seeing Shen Lian, Wu Song and others, they can't help but sigh "a good talent and a beautiful jade, once in a thousand years"!
To a large extent, the reason should be attributed to the "cursed shackles" feature in his attributes.

This is the characteristic of the "negative" effect that Xia Tian saw for the first time.

Although from the mouth of the previous "flame wolf king", Xia Tian knew that some human beings in different worlds were cursed by the gods, but after seeing it with his own eyes, he still couldn't help frowning.

Not only does it reduce the understanding of the human race, but it also greatly restricts the improvement of human strength. It is no wonder that ordinary creatures in the strange world think that the human race is "stupid and inferior"!
In particular, this curse directly occupies a "characteristic" position in the "Land of Eternity", which undoubtedly has a huge impact on the human race.

"However, as 'The Will of the Earth' suggests, good and bad come together."

"This 'curse' should have been cast by the gods of another world at a great cost, so that even in the 'Land of Eternity' it was still preserved, and even condensed into a 'negative characteristic'. But if a way to eliminate the curse can be found, it is quite Because each of the cursed humans has at least one 'characteristic', it is of great significance to the entire human race!"

Xia Tian felt a little excited.

It was originally thought that humans from other worlds would become a "drag" for humans on Earth, but it seems that this may not be the case at present. As long as the curse can be untied, in a sense, these human races are equivalent to the "elite" of all members starting.

"Although it is a curse cast by the gods, the law of 'Eternal Land' has an upper limit, and it may not be very difficult to lift the shackles of the curse!"

With anticipation in Xia Tian heart.

However, this is a matter for the future, and the current focus is still on this war.

And with Gu Lao's "Eye of Spiritual Vision", there is a way to deal with the dark elves' most dreaded invisibility and lurking abilities.

The military discussion ended accordingly, and the entire territory officially entered a state of full combat readiness.

Practice terracotta warriors and horses, transplant peach trees, forge weapons and armor, and prepare poison that can seal the throat with blood...

On the other hand, the dark elves did not choose to attack immediately.

As creatures accustomed to living underground, they also need a certain amount of time to become familiar with land combat.

Moreover, although the gray dwarves are natural craftsmen, it is impossible to research and build war equipment suitable for siege in a day or two.

Therefore, the two sides seem to have reached some kind of tacit agreement in an area that is less than ten miles away.

One side is making every effort to build siege equipment underground, while the other side is seriously building fortifications on the ground without interfering with each other!
crackle!

three days later.

In the lord's mansion, Xia Tian suddenly opened his eyes.

There are silver thunders blooming in the pupils, like thunder from the void!
And every inch of his skin and cell color is crystal-clear and luminous, and even the strands of his hair have abundant spiritual power overflowing from it, his appearance is as if a god has descended into the world.

After going all out to temper his body with the "power of thunder" and restore his state with "blood of his life", and nourishing Pao Ding's various broths, and consuming more than a dozen spirit stones, his current physical and mental spirit has officially reached the peak level. The upper limit of the "third stage of transformation" has been exceeded!

"In addition, among the residents of the territory, there are finally hundreds of mortal-level fighters!"

Xia Tian perceives the information in his mind for the past few days.

[The level of a resident in your territory increases, and the luck of the territory +20...]

[The level of a resident in your territory is increased, and the luck of the territory is +100! 】

[The level of a resident in your territory is increased, and the luck of the territory is +600! 】

In three days, under the circumstances of consuming resources and preparing for war at no cost.

A total of [-] soldiers from the trapped camp, [-] soldiers from the Xuanjia Army, plus their mounts, black and white dragon pheasants, and stone men of different species, all broke through to the level of transformation one after another.

At the same time, there are still a few talents and outstanding people who were originally transformed into the first stage, and have entered the second stage of transformation...

And with the breakthrough of the residents of the territory, they have obtained a lot of luck rewards from the will of the earth. The balance of the territory's luck that was consumed before has now returned to more than [-] points!

"[-] points of luck should be almost enough to maintain the shield defense during the battle, preventing those drow assassins from directly sneaking into the territory and slaughtering ordinary people."

"In order to avoid long nights and dreams, it's time to fight the dark elves!"
