arcane emperor

After receiving the orders and support from the Kingdom of the Kor Elf, many forces that were already quite unhappy with the Netheril Empire immediately joined forces to show their power.

Don't ever think that the Netherese Empire, ruled by arcanists and archarcists, is a "good neighbor" or a "good ruling force."

In fact, when intelligent creatures possess almost supreme power and authority, there are no corresponding systems and rules to restrict them.

It's not surprising that they do all kinds of weird things.

For an arcanist, his desire for various resources and experimental subjects in the pursuit of knowledge and power is almost endless.

The pressure from the arcanist was passed down, and the lower-level officials and nobles naturally would not bear it alone, and would definitely pass the pressure on to the people.

Therefore, increasingly intense oppression and exploitation of various races in the surrounding areas are naturally common.

It is precisely because of the arcanist's condescending attitude.

Therefore, many lords and nobles were quite wary of the initial trade and caravans in the Gulf Territory.

Fortunately, as time went on, the reputation of the Gulf Territory grew, gradually overshadowing the Netherese Empire.

In addition, the Gulf Leader likes to promote trading methods that benefit everyone.

Therefore, many lords and nobles could not resist such temptation and joined the ranks of cooperating with the Gulf Lord.

But even so, their fear of the arcanists was still alarming, and they decided to separate the Gulf Territory from the Netherese Empire.

Because of this trend, the expansion of the Netherese Empire encountered great obstacles, which is why it failed to completely control the central part of the northern continent.

In fact, the bad reputation and behavior of the Netheril Empire were also due to the guidance and propaganda of the Kor Elf Kingdom.

It just so happened that at that time, the spellcasters of the Netheril Empire almost obeyed the orders of the Kor Elf Kingdom, so naturally they were not on guard.

It is precisely because of this that the various arrangements of the Netheril Empire are so thoroughly understood by the Kingdom of the Kor Elves.

The news of unrest in various places immediately made the Netheril Imperial Parliament busy.

They had to deploy troops and generals in an attempt to better stabilize the situation and ensure that they could continue to rule the existing territories.

After all, with the arrival of the elemental tide, even the originally "barren" territories and regions have a lot of mining and development value.

Their desire to improve their strength and their pursuit of wealth have made them have a stronger desire for more resources.

The Netherese Imperial Council, unaware of the impending danger, sent out several legions.

As a result, these legions had barely left when they came into contact with local rebels or attackers.

Soon after, all kinds of rebellions, cult organizations, and large-scale raider forces emerged out of nowhere from all over the Netherese Empire.

The Netherese Imperial Parliament was caught off guard, but it handled the various turmoil in its own territory in a timely manner.

After all, the area affected by the unrest this time was quite wide, and the territories of many congressmen were attacked.

Under normal circumstances, they would have no choice but to hold their noses and do it themselves.

Now that we've collided, it would definitely be better to send public troops to take action!

The archarcs of the Council of Netheril were not at all surprised that the mage lords had such thoughts.

The great arcanist Kenorman, who had completely given up on some guys, was preparing to build his own floating city.

Now he has figured out that giving in is not the best method. Only by strengthening his own strength can he deal with more possible crises.

However, the Archmage Kenorman still gave a warning:

"Be careful of the Kingdom of Cole Elf. Every territory must strengthen its military strength."

"If we really encounter an irresistible crisis, we should request support from the Gulf Territory combat forces as soon as possible."

“They’re expensive, but they’re definitely worth it.”

Some of the lackeys of the Elf Kingdom of Kor still sneered at the words of the Great Arcanist Knonorman.

However, there were also many mage lords whose ideas changed and they chose to cooperate more deeply with the Gulf Lords.

They have already made up their minds to have deeper contacts with the Gulf Leader and complete more cooperative investments.

In their simple thoughts and cognition.

The more common interests they have with the Gulf Territory, the more likely it is that the other side will send elite combat forces when they request support from the Gulf Territory.

This should be what the Gulf leaders call "sunk cost"!
The Elf Kingdom of Kor quickly carried out the next plan to guide and manipulate the orc army.

Approaching the Netherese Empire from the north, west, and southwest.

Faced with the huge orc army, the Netherese Empire, which had lost sufficient mobile forces, was completely unable to resist the invasion of the huge orcs.

Even if some lords and nobles chose to fight defensively, they were completely unable to withstand the tide of orcs.

In just a few days.

The western territories, which had never recovered, were immediately occupied by the orc army.

Even though they possessed some of the weapons and equipment produced by the Gulf Territory, they did not put up any decent resistance.

Even because of their loss, the lords and nobles in the southwest were caught off guard.

Surrounded by a large army of orcs!
Under such circumstances, only a very small number of lords and nobles could withstand the pressure and resist the attacks of the orc army.

But although they withstood the attacks of the orc army, they still felt inexplicable panic.

Because of the orc warriors they were facing.

They are no longer ordinary orcs wearing simple leather armor or rusty armor and holding crudely made weapons.

Instead, they are elite orcs wearing iron armor, with strong physiques, holding sophisticated weapons, able to operate siege machinery, and possessing very strong combat capabilities.

From this, it can be seen that the Kingdom of Kor Elf has really invested a lot this time and is prepared to deal with the Empire of Netheril at all costs.

Faced with this sudden change, the mage lords who had been living a leisurely life also became anxious.

They immediately requested support, hoping to mobilize the last remaining members of the Netherese Empire to their own territory.

As a result, the entire parliament scene was in chaos.

Only a few wizard lords felt extremely fortunate that their territories and castles were impregnable.

Fortunately, they applied for support from the Gulf Leader in time.

The latter sent out a powerful combat force, which not only withstood the orcs' attacks, but also caused considerable casualties to them.

The powerful combat capability and huge losses even forced the large orc army to bypass their position and continue to attack further behind.

In addition to the Gulf Territory's powerful combat forces, what was even more incredible to them was the engineering troops they sent over.

The engineering forces of the Gulf Territory possess almost incredible construction capabilities.

Especially good at building defensive fortresses and battle lines. In just two or three days.

A trench capable of blocking the rapid advance of engineering machinery.

The city wall was widened and thickened to a height of 20 meters.

An artillery position that allows for rapid transfer and long-range defense.

There is a watchtower that is more than 50 meters high.

A large magical barrier array that can defend against most ranged spells and bombardments.

All kinds of defensive facilities that they had seen or had not seen were quickly built up and soon played a powerful role in the battle.

Observing the battles of the Gulf Territory's combat troops made these mage lords feel unfamiliar and confused.

They never imagined that it would only take a few short years.

The battle process starts with melee units fighting with swords and swords, and ranged mages bombing in groups.

It turned into an all-round suppression and attack by long-range weapons. They didn't even need to take action, and the battle ended with a roar.

The Mage Lord and the territory's guard soldiers seemed a little at a loss as to what to do in this situation.

They seem out of touch with the times!

Fortunately, the Gulf Lord had no intention of hiding anything and was very happy to share his combat methods with them.

To do this, they must order the Gulf Territory's training package and purchase a variety of magical equipment.

After buying these magic equipment, various weapons and equipment must also be purchased from the Bay.

The price of these equipments will not be very high, but it is definitely not low either.

After all, Matthew doesn't want these weapons and equipment to be scattered among the people.

The wonderful life of universal shooting can be silently endured by the people in that area of ​​the original world.

Compared to the situation in which the Netheril Empire in the northern continent was beaten up, the great lords and nobles of the Brave Continent also faced the first wave of brutal clashes.

Faced with the large and powerful demon army, the combat troops with an average challenge level of only level 8 and an average combat effectiveness of only around 120 points were beaten to pieces almost as soon as they came into contact.

Fortunately, the lords and nobles who led the team had very strong fighting power.

They all started at at least the legendary level, and some had even broken through to the demigod level. Both their personal combat capabilities and their ability to lead a team were outstanding.

Those who dare to embark on the path of becoming a god, and are recognized by the Gulf Leader and given key publicity, are definitely truly strong.

But even with them at the front, facing more and more powerful demons, the combat troops, who were not mentally prepared, could only hold on with difficulty.

Fortunately, the artillery support from the Gulf Lord arrived quickly, otherwise the demon army that was chased and almost defeated would have inexplicably managed to put up a comeback.

boom! boom! boom!
The repeated bombings and artillery fire made the ground tremble constantly.

The demon army that was so invincible just now was blown to pieces in the blink of an eye.

The violent impact of the explosion made the lords and nobles, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, stunned.

The power and intensity of the explosion were not particularly high, just at the super-high to peak level.

Most of them can perform it with ease, even some of the accompanying team members can do it.

However, with thousands of concentrated uses, a killing range of 50 to meters, and very effective formation destruction capabilities including meters.

They immediately realized that these seemingly inconspicuous heavy artillery in the Gulf Territory battle images actually possessed extremely terrifying destructive power.

Even many lords and heroes began to have deep doubts about their own strength and abilities.

They have trained hard for dozens or even hundreds of years, learning a wide range of knowledge and expertise, and honing a variety of heritage and skills.

Its performance on the battlefield was even worse than that of a magic cannon costing tens of thousands of gold coins.

Fortunately, they all have excellent adjustment capabilities and plan to study the various weapons produced by the Gulf Territory and put the matter behind them.

Of course, some lords and nobles who had close cooperation with the Gulf Territory requested assistance from the Gulf Territory's combat forces.

The dragon warrior troops who were hunting down the remaining demon army quickly accepted their request.

They gathered their forces together and handed over the combat and defense tasks to the Gulf Command combat forces.

Even some lords and nobles chose to jointly develop the minerals discovered in the Brave Continent with the Gulf Territory.

They thought it through clearly. Since they were not strong enough, they might as well ask the powerful Gulf Leader for help.

Apart from requiring various resources, the Gulf Territory usually does not put forward any excessive conditions.

This one is much "stronger" than other lords and nobles.

Under the leadership of Aini, the Gulf Territory's combat forces integrated a group of lords' and nobles' troops and incorporated them into the Gulf Territory's digital combat system.

The purpose of doing this is to set up defense lines in the long mountains, build various bunkers and fortresses, and block the growing number of demon armies.

At the beginning, the other soldiers and adventurers who had just joined the Gulf Territory's combat forces were still a little hesitant and afraid.

They were very worried that they would become cannon fodder and bait for the Gulf Territory's combat forces.

After all, for as many people like the Gulf Territory as there are, there will inevitably be as much slander, lies, and all kinds of dirty water thrown at it.

But they soon discovered that their jobs and tasks were shockingly simple.

"Observe the number of enemies on the radar and issue an alert of the corresponding level in a timely manner..."

"Issue an attack order to the automated combat artillery team and issue an order to replenish combat supplies in a timely manner..."

"You will stay at the sentry post for the next few days. Your only mission is to use the dragon-hunting crossbow to kill those blind shadow demons..."

"Enter the bombardment data and confirm twice, and the combat mission is completed..."

"..."

Fortunately, these simple tasks and jobs are just part of their familiarity with the Gulf Territory's combat mode.

With the rewards they get from completing quests or participating in battles, they can buy all kinds of magical equipment and weapons that they like and desire.

At the same time, the Gulf Leader also provides them with a special "training package" to enhance their strength.

In addition to participating in battles and completing missions, they can work hard to improve their strength or accumulate wealth.

This kind of relatively comfortable, almost risk-free, yet fruitful life makes them happy to indulge in it.

Inextricable!

This is the power of the data-based combat mode, which maximizes the role of participants and can accumulate various data to a certain extent, making it easier to complete combat tasks. (End of this chapter)
