Prehistoric Calendar

Chapter 648, Full-scale invasion and exploration continue
The situation is getting worse. The news from the city claims that the Marquis of the Border has sent three adventure groups. These three adventure groups are all high-level adventure groups with extraordinary people in their teams. They entered the enemy-occupied area, and then... ...There is no more, the three adventure groups completely disappeared in the enemy-occupied area, and the highest among the three adventure groups was a Tier [-] fighter, but even the Tier [-] fighter didn't escape, which is already very explainable .

You must know that this is a single person, not a collective action of the army. It is very possible for the army to fall into the enemy-occupied area. However, a single person with a third-level melee transcendence, unless he is being chased by a siege, or a higher-level transcendent is following him. , otherwise it would be extremely difficult to kill him, but in the end even this Tier [-] fighter disappeared, which is already very scary.

The rich and powerful people who knew the news left a large number immediately, and the rest also planned to leave the border area in a short time. The news from the inland capital of the Plant Alliance is that the alliance requires the border army to cooperate with the border area. Hou must block the enemy's attack and protect the safety of the border area. As for the cries for help from the Border Legion and the Border Hou, the top military officials of the Plant Alliance government are in chaos. Even if it is the most optimistic estimate, it will take at least half a month before they can send support Troops come.

In fact, this is the normal state of an alliance. After all, an alliance is not an empire, and it is not a powerful unified race regime. They all have their own ethnic independent armies, not to mention wars, even people's livelihood issues in daily life are all hindered by each other. It would be really strange if one could make a quick decision.

In fact, several months have passed since the dark camp appeared on the border of the elves. Hao took it for granted at first, thinking that the appearance of the dark camp would immediately be besieged by the troops of the surrounding alliances. This incident has passed for several months, the siege has not been seen, the various alliances have not even completed the mobilization of troops, and the borders are still in vain. At first glance, it seems that it is still in peacetime. Until then, the underworld camps began to mobilize and sweep the surrounding areas. The integration within the Plant Alliance has not yet been completed.

These are all the information that Hao confirmed more than ten days after he came to the Plant Alliance, so the first thing he thought of was to retreat, to leave the Plant Alliance, and even leave the alliance around the Elf Empire, because he realized that after the Great War of Ten Thousand Clans, except All the empires and other alliances among the Ten Thousand Clans are weak. The races in these alliances have long been neglected by peace. You don't know how serious the situation is right now.

It is also impossible for Hao to remind them, the only thing he can do is to act according to the original plan.

"It's all ready." Nuo Duo came to Hao's room, saw Hao was carefully calculating something on a piece of paper, he knocked on the door, and said to Hao.

Hao turned his head and nodded at Nuo Duo. He put away the paper in his hand, stood up and said, "Okay, I'll gather the troops, and then go to the destination now. It's not too late. I'm afraid things will change." , he stood up and walked towards Noldor.

Nuo Duo stepped aside to pass Hao, and he suddenly asked: "God, that vial you gave to all the soldiers before..."

Hao looked at Nuo Duo, and didn't speak for a while, and Nuo Duo also fell silent. After a long time, Nuo Duo said: "Then I'll ask them to get ready, and you've assembled there, we will Let's go together."

After Nuo Duo left, Hao stood still for a while, then he sighed and walked towards the clansmen's dormitory.

(Sorry, I don't have a choice, but don't worry, I have such a bottle too...)
Hao quickly trained the team. For the human race, he has always trained according to the military management, even the children and women in the race are like this, but the training level is lower than that of adult men. , So even if there are more than 1000 to 800 people in all human beings, and more than 10 adult males, this team will be assembled in just [-] minutes, and most of the elves have already arrived at the playground. It's Ai Yi and An Yang who haven't arrived yet.

Hao's complexion was a bit grim, but he didn't say much. More than 1000 people stood quietly on the playground and waited. It wasn't until more than 20 minutes later that Ai Yi and Anyang arrived late, and Hao didn't say anything. What to say, just order the non-commissioned officers to command the army, guard the women, children and elves in the center, and then move towards the destination in units of a hundred people on vehicles pulled by large animals.

On the way, Ai Yi seemed to see that Hao's face was not good, so she squeezed away a few elves and humans, sat next to Hao and said, "What are you doing, you have a stinky face, didn't you just arrive a few minutes late?" , It’s not too late for these few minutes, and there’s more, I’ve always said that you look pretty when you smile, come on, give me a smile.”

Hao looked at Ai Yi, didn't smile, but said with a cold face: "Miss Ai Yi, please respect yourself, you are an elf noble girl, don't just say things about me, and we are now in the army, okay It is a military order, so far, if there is a next time..."

"Are you going to kill me too?" Ai blinked and stared into Hao's eyes.

Hao turned his head, looked at the scenery outside the vehicle shed and said: "Yes! I am marching, if I violate this military law, I can kill myself, you... I can kill too!"

Ai Yi was taken aback for a moment, then she suddenly laughed, and at the same time stretched out her hand on the car, pinching Hao's face, and at the same time Ai Yi muttered: "I just like to say such cruel words, If you are also so ruthless in your heart, then it’s okay to say these ruthless words, hee hee..."

Hao didn't bother to talk to her...

The location of the station is still some distance away from Sulan City, so the departure of the team did not cause any disturbances. After all, it was only a small team of more than 1000 people. Larger business groups have more than this number, not to mention that this team is registered. The leader of the previous adventure group was still a high-level magician. As long as the team didn't come to attack the city, they could pass through the plant alliance almost without hindrance.

In this way, the team headed all the way to the Thousand Caves. On the way, Hao led the team to change lanes twice and passed two suspicious formations he had set up earlier. These two suspicious formations were simple camps built earlier. Every simple camp is at the intersection of several cities. If you start from this simple camp, the destination is hard to guess. The difficulty of tracking the team will increase, not to mention that Hao personally led people to clean up the traces of the past. Unless it is tracked by magic, it will be difficult for even a skilled hunter to track down.

In this way, he changed lanes twice in a row. When he changed lanes for the second time, Hao also abandoned all the large animals and vehicles, and let the team advance on foot. During this period, Ai used magic to connect to the The magic tower signal, from the magic tower signals in those big cities, we know that the invasion of the underworld camp has already begun, and one of the several big cities has already contacted the vanguard army of the underworld camp. This signal cannot be sent after pictures and videos Human beings only describe the composition of the vanguard army of the underworld camp in words. In addition to the known various ignorant and undead creatures, there are many twisted and terrifying monsters accompanying them, as well as countless monsters made of bones and souls. The tools are powerful, strange and terrifying. Although the big city could not be broken for a while, the big city was completely besieged by the undead army of the underworld camp.

And from the signal of the magic tower, everyone also learned that various strange things began to appear in the besieged big city, such as singing in the middle of the night, floating heads, disappearing out of thin air, etc. Although it is not as terrifying as low-latitude erosion, these abnormal phenomena are very important to the people. It is also a fatal encounter for ordinary people, especially now that there are refugees everywhere in the big cities. These abnormal phenomena are the influence of the forces of the lower plane. In just a few days, the besieged big city died As many as 10 people were involved, and these people were not killed by the underworld camp, but were only affected by abnormal phenomena.

"Based on the current situation, isn't this dark faction camping around for help?" Some elves rubbed their chins and guessed after hearing what Ai said.

At dusk, six days have passed since Hao led the people to leave the station. At this moment, they are less than three days away from the Thousand Caves. At this time, everyone has already set up camp, and the elves surround Hao, listening to Ai talking about the magic tower. The invasion of the underworld camp mentioned in the signal.

All the elves were arguing about this war, but Hao was a little bit out of his mind. At this moment, Ai Yi asked Hao, "God, tell me, is this the underworld camp fighting for help?"

Only then did Hao come to his senses, he sighed and said, "No, it should be that the underworld camp is planning to invade in an all-round way. The so-called siege and aid will happen under several circumstances. The first is when the enemy is outnumbered. The enemy is mediocre, which is the usual method used by a small number of elites to fight against the mediocre majority. It is also used in conjunction with forcing the enemy to divide troops, defeating several enemy troops with an advantage along the way, etc. This is the right way on the battlefield, and the underworld camp is also a civilized race. Although they are a dead civilized race, they should have the same thinking in terms of war, so the commander of the underworld camp should have a full-scale invasion."

"Full-scale invasion!?" All the elves were stunned, they never expected such an answer at all.

Full-scale invasion is extremely rare in alliance wars, because of the existence of cities, full-scale invasion is a joke.

All gathering places that can be called city-level must have magic towers in the city. At the same time, there are a large number of protective magic circles on the city walls. It is very difficult to break through a big city. On the one hand, it will be easily blocked, unless it is an empire beyond the alliance level, such as the elf empire, relying on a large number of magicians, relying on the unique magic lock, you can set up a portal, so that you can get supplies anytime, anywhere, otherwise the so-called The full-scale invasion of the Chinese army is meaningless at all. Big cities are nailed to the gate of life like nails. What's the use of just breaking down villages and towns?

Hao said with a gloomy face: "Theoretically speaking, a full-scale invasion is really meaningless for alliance-level wars, but for the underworld camp, or all lower plane forces, their favorite It is a full-scale invasion. First of all, supplies are dispensable to the forces of the lower planes. Demons, devils, or dark camps, these lower-plane creatures, they like the soul or flesh and blood of life, and they don’t need the so-called supplies at all. Although there are many lives gathered in big cities, there are also many lives around the city. They only need to be burned and killed all the way, and spread corrosion. What supplies."

"And for the lower plane, if you don't go out of the city, I will attack in an all-round way, burn and kill everything, destroy everything, and spread the corruption of the lower plane to my heart's content. If you dare to go out of the city, I will fight hard with you and kill you all. Take souls, slaughter captives, and then destroy the city, if you defeat them and wipe them out...then just destroy them all, the lower planes don't care about casualties at all, they only care about whether they can continue to destroy everything."

All the elves felt a little creepy, just thinking of countless dead creatures, sweeping everything like a plague, turning all living things into undead, into monsters, turning the earth into a decaying cemetery, and turning the city into a building full of dead bones , The whole world has become weird and terrifying. Thinking of this, they feel as if their hearts are being pulled tight by fear, all of them are pale and speechless.

"Hurry up." Hao stood up and said, "Have a good rest today, and we will start marching in a hurry tomorrow. We have to rush to the Thousand Caves camp as soon as possible. The attack speed of the underworld camp exceeded my expectations. We need to make progress before the underworld forces wreak havoc on Sulan City."

Hao had a premonition, a bad premonition. To be honest, in his prediction, the underworld camp started from the invasion, then attacked the first city, and then fully invaded. By three months, on the one hand, the time concept of the undead of the underworld camp is different from that of creatures. They prefer to spread, corrode and collect souls, and gradually transform the world into the way they like, while collecting and devouring souls on a large scale, instead of As it is now, a full-scale attack will be launched as soon as the war starts, just like the devil and the devil in a hurry.

Something must have happened that caused the Hades camp to change their nature and adopt this fast and fierce invasion method. Although there are many possibilities, such as orders from superiors, such as changes in the elf empire, the elves The regular army of the empire began to attack the underworld camp, or there were some changes in the top management of the plant alliance, or changes in the external situation, etc., may cause the underworld camp to eagerly want to capture the entire plant alliance.

But it is also possible that the army commander of the underworld camp, or a certain high-level person knew the existence of the relic of this mixed-blood spirit magician, and if he wanted to seize this relic, it was also possible that the power of the underworld camp knew about him. I have obtained the information of that venerable's legacy, and now I am here to hunt them down, or it may be a powerful magic system from the underworld camp. Knowing that he has the ability to analyze the career path of an arcanist, I came to arrest him ...

There are too many possibilities, no matter how inconceivable the possibility is, as long as it is possible to happen, Hao will treat it as inevitable, at least as an accident that will be encountered to design a response plan. In his response plan, once this happens to the underworld camp, the target will be him, the relic of the spiritual magician, the legacy of the venerable, his rune analysis method, etc...

So on the second day, Hao's ruthless behavior started again. From morning to night, the real rush march, even the elves did not have any preferential treatment, and thanks to Ai Yi being a high-level magician, he continued After using the group stamina recovery technique three times, when the crowd reached the middle of the night, they forcibly compressed the three-day journey into a whole day's rapid march. In the middle of the night, everyone saw the camp that appeared in the distance, which was the first exploration. At the Thousand Caves, the one that Hao asked Ai Rui to build, everyone let out a sigh of relief, including the people of the human race. They were finally relieved...temporarily...

The next day, Hao divided the human army into two parts, one part guarded the camp, and the other part began to explore the cave where the ruins were located, with a rotation every day. In this camp, during the past few months, Hao A lot of supplies have been secretly dispatched long ago, and these supplies are piled up in the warehouses of the camp, enough for them to eat and drink here for half a year.

Then the exploration started. In the next few days, Hao led the team to keep moving forward in this cave, continuing down from the first encounter, encountering one or two encounters every day, and magic Traps and magic deciphering, etc., thanks to the excellent semi-magic weapon designed by Hao, the casualty rate in encounters along the way is extremely low. After several days in a row, only three people died and injured There were only 11 people. Compared with the first encounter, this was nothing more than an insignificant injury.

At the same time, Yi Shanjiu muttered to himself nervously, touched his chest from time to time, and then showed a smirk or a ferocious smile.

And beside Yi Shanjiu, there are the guards of the Yingren clan in the business group, and a team of more than a dozen fighters with the lowest level of first-level extraordinary and the highest level of third-level fighters. These are all extraordinary professionals hired by him with a lot of money. For this reason, he even took out the coffin book, and even owed a whole lot of debt because of it.

"It's okay, it's okay, Yishanjiu, as long as you can get the inheritance of this relic, everything is worth it, that's right, Yishanjiu, I think so too..."

Yi Shanjiu muttered to himself, talking to himself nervously, and looked around in fear from time to time, so no matter who looked at him like this, he would feel that he was extremely weird.

But what Yi Shanjiu and the eagle-human guards didn't notice was the extraordinary professionals hired by Yi Shanjiu. They looked at each other from time to time, and there was an inexplicable look in their eyes, which was bloodthirsty and cunning. .

Gradually, they got closer and closer to the Thousand Caves.
