Arad's Sword

Chapter 198 The Battle of the Three Towers
Rumble!
Accompanied by bursts of deafening explosions, dozens of humanoid masters standing on the stone seats were suddenly shaken by the air waves. As a result, gaps appeared in the originally tight formation, and the response that had no dead ends suddenly stagnated.

At this moment, the heavily armed dragonmen launched a fierce attack in one go, the innate magic was concentrated in one place, and the quaint war spears stabbed out one after another. In an instant, the humanoid masters were defeated. After the killing, only a few were able to escape.

As one after another of fire snakes soared, soon, the humanoid master tribes who had lost their defenses, including their people and buildings, were all reduced to ashes.Instead, there were beacon towers built up one after another by the Thunderfire Wings tribe.

These beacon towers are entirely made of fine iron, and there are multiple arrays inlaid inside, which are much more refined than those originally piled up with stones in the three towers and trees, and the actual combat effect has also doubled. It can be said that it has truly formed An invisible city wall.

Because their design comes from the Falcon Group.

The previous explosions were naturally the masterpiece of the energy-gathering ring that the dragon patriarch Lucas had been thinking about for a long time.

The most cutting-edge alchemy technology of human beings and the power of the most powerful dragon tribe in Shuhai, the combination of the two is enough to form an effect that one plus one is greater than two.

What's more, at this moment, the person in charge of the command is Midi Asrex, the young and talented commander.

In this way, the fragile balance of the Three Towers Sea of ​​Trees was easily broken.

Humanoid masters, who originally relied on strong reproductive capacity and a slight advantage in numbers, became vulnerable after the dragon people got the energy-gathering ring and effective military command. A puppet master who knows how to form a small team but lacks an overall view has no room for resistance.

They are like a large piece of white cloth, which is constantly cut and separated by the dragon troops, and eventually become fragmented, not only unable to support each other, even the communication of information is cut off, and finally they can only be slaughtered That's all.

In just a few days, the Dragonman tribe has conquered territory that they have not been able to conquer in the past ten years, and greatly expanded their own strength.

Now, those mines, medicinal materials, magic veins, etc., and even the herds that were originally occupied by the humanoid masters have all become the property of the dragon people.

However, the offensive ended there.

Although the dragon patriarch Lucas and several elders still wanted to go all out to lay down a few more territories, but Midi chose to stop at this time.

His goal is not to help the Thunderfire Wings tribe dominate the Three Towers Sea of ​​Trees area, but to prepare for entering the higher level of the Sky City, the Hanging City, and even the floating palace above the Hanging City.Cleaning up the puppet masters is just to maintain a stable rear.

Now that the situation has basically stabilized, Midi naturally has to move on to the next step - capturing the origin of Kongmingshi.

In the Three Pagodas Tree Sea, although Kongming stones are not readily available, they are not too rare. However, converting Kongming stones into Kongming liquid also requires a large amount of raw materials. The collection is simply not enough to support the large-scale experiments that Master Norton is currently conducting in the alchemy factory.

In the future, after the airship is actually successfully developed, the demand for Kongmingshi will be even greater.At that time, what needs to be done is not "collecting", but "digging".

At that time, what is needed is not Kongmingshi, but Kongmingshi veins.

On the land of Three Pagodas and Sea of ​​Trees, according to the memories of Midi's previous life, those large veins containing Kong Mingshi are all in the territory of elemental giants.

Elemental giants are magical life forms born from the earth. They are naturally very picky about the soil environment, and it is only natural that they will occupy the mine veins of empty stones.Moreover, to the elemental giants, ore veins are like food and drinking water, and they basically don't trade them with others. In their rocky heads, they probably don't have the concept of trading.

The only option is to fight.

Three days later, many exploration teams sent out by Midi, as well as a few alchemists who had the ability to enter Sky City, finally brought back accurate news——

In the Gilded Valley, there is a vein of Kongmingshi.

The vegetation in this valley is extremely lush, towering trees with lush foliage can be seen everywhere, shrubs and grass are covered with rocks.

In addition, in this heart-warming green, you can also vaguely see many ruins with ancient flavors, collapsed arches, broken columns, and only barely visible after the wind and rain. The outline of the temple, all of which add a lot of mystery to the Gilded Valley.

However, for Midi, this is not good news, because those elemental giants living in Gilded Valley are also the elite among giants.

They're basically as old as the ancient valley, and many may be older than the West Coast.After long years of tempering, these elite giants have not only reached the capped level of 50, but also integrated a large number of characteristics of the mineral veins in the Gilded Valley, which made their bodies not only as hard as gold and iron, but also more powerful. With some mysterious abilities, in terms of combat effectiveness, it is much stronger than ordinary elemental giants.

Not only that, but for an army, "terrain", one of the most important factors in battle, is also not good for Midi.

The environment of the sea of ​​trees is not suitable for the army to form formations for large-scale battles, and the gold-plated valley is even more tapered at both ends and open in the middle. Looking down from a high place, it looks like a huge spindle.

It is almost impossible to enter such a spindle space without being discovered by the elemental giants.

At that time, these giants only need to seal the two entrances and exits of the valley, and they can easily wait for work.In addition, they don't need food and water, and can directly absorb elemental power from the earth. It's not surprising that they can keep the last decade, 20 or even 100 years.

And even if Midi led a team to launch a surprise attack and forcefully rushed into the valley, it would be difficult to send enough troops through such a narrow entrance in a short period of time, let alone set up a formation.

The elemental giant's own advantages can be said to have been 120% utilized in this gilded valley.

"How do we fight this?" Dragon patriarch Lucas asked worriedly.

The rest of the dragon elders immediately turned their attention to Midi.

Even Xie Na and Tanius looked over at the same time.

Dragonman and Midi were just allies at first, but as Midi continued to show personal force that exceeded expectations, coupled with the various equipment sent by the Falcon Group through the gap, unconsciously, the black-haired The human youth with black eyes began to take the lead.

At first, it was just a suggestion.

Then because of this suggestion, the dragon people won.

Then, Midi went into battle in person, fighting together with Tanius, the dragon warrior.

Then because of the strong personal force, the dragon people won the victory relatively easily.

Later, with the support of their impressive record, the entire Thunderfire Wings tribe began to obey Midi's command.

Therefore, under the unprecedented command of the three towers and trees, the dragon people easily won a big victory.

In this way, Midi won the approval of the Dragon Council and the trust of the Dragon Warriors. Coupled with the guarantee from Xie Na and Tanius, Midi became the military commander of the Thunderfire Wings tribe, leading all battles .

But even so, after learning about the situation in Gilded Valley, the dragon people were still a little worried.

After all, Midi is also a human being, not a god. When faced with an environment that is comprehensively beneficial to the opponent when they are unable to give full play to their commanding advantages, the dragon people don't know how to proceed, and this one came to Sky City not long ago. What kind of solution can human beings come up with?

Unexpectedly, facing the worries of the dragon people, Midi remained calm as usual.

He raised one hand, and then stretched out three fingers: "Wait another three days, after three days, we will launch an attack on Gilded Valley."

Two days later, in the middle of the night, a team of about fifty people arrived at the Dragon People's barracks quietly.

This is a team of the Falcon Regiment, all made up of elves, but led by two humans—Sigmund and Lilian.The handsome gunner with short pale blond hair, and the petite Blue Fist Holy Envoy have fought with Midi and Fina from the very beginning.

Together with Midi, they experienced the most difficult period. They faced the army of the Seth family in the noble war, and then contributed a lot in the Belmare Civil War and the formation of the Falcon Regiment. It can be said that they are enough Known as the mainstay of the Falcon Group.

And the elves following these two senior cadres of the Falcon Regiment are also veterans. Most of them were brought out of Gran's Forest by Alice, the Mist Witch, and they have experienced many battles. At this moment, They were able to enter Sky City by virtue of their own strength, and successfully reconciled the essence of magic power, which is the best proof.

And if you observe carefully, you will find that this team that came here from Bel Mare to support Sky City has a unique feature.

There is not even a small piece of metal on their bodies.

The armor on his body is made of dragon scales, and the longbow in his hand is made of the bones of monsters. Even Sigmund, who is a gunner, has also replaced it with a huge heavy crossbow. Of course, none of them Parts are metal.

Not only that, they also brought a large number of similar non-metallic equipment, obviously for the dragon people to use.

What this team valued most was a heavy magic sealing box, which was kept by Sigmund himself, and was carefully delivered to Midi after entering the camp.

Taking off all the metal products on her body, taking off the Heitian sword that almost never leaves her body, and confirming that there is no metal within tens of meters around, Midi dialed the magic lock on the magic sealing box, and then gently opened it .

Rows of neatly crafted arrowheads were displayed in front of Midi.

These arrows are different, some are scattered arrows used to kill a large area, some are armor-piercing arrows used to penetrate defenses, and some are barbed arrows. In addition, there are also heavy and huge arrows for heavy crossbows , but all arrows are black regardless of their function.

They are all arrowheads made of cold iron.

And Yuanci cold iron is the nemesis of all metals.

And the elemental giants in Gilded Valley can almost be called metal giants.

In other words, their incomparably hard bodies are probably more fragile than a piece of thin paper in front of these cold iron arrows.

This is the ultimate move that Midi prepared.

Under the illumination of the light, these arrows are emitting a cold light full of killing intent, as if they are longing for an impending killing.
