The lord is red again.
Chapter 595 Locusts crossing the border
Chapter 595 Locusts crossing the border
In the vast and boundless cursed land, the dim light of the sky illuminates the road ahead.
Four figures passed through the space gate and came to this space.
“Is this the new beta map? The magical wasteland? You’re not coming here to pick up trash, are you?”
Dragon Scale Sword turned his head left and right to observe until a huge piece of armor loomed in front of him.
Looking up, it turned out to be the Moon-Chopping Sword.
My good brother is too reserved. He made such a beautiful character but never let his brothers use it once.
“Look over there, I have a lot of red names!”
“Want a big one?”
“Do the task first.”
Everyone has only one chance to enter the internal beta test mainland for trial play, so you must hold on and survive as long as you can.
“There’s no need to open the map.” Xuanwu Shield said, “This map is still in internal testing, and there will definitely be changes in the future. But the game officials are really bold. Are they really letting us pick up trash at will?”
“Yeah.” Uzumaki nodded, “The weapons and attributes of the beta map have definitely not been adjusted in detail, it’s easy to over-model and ruin the game experience. There’s also a possibility that their weapons and other things have already been designed, but some parts have not been carefully polished.”
“That’s more likely.”
“Go, put on shield, become invisible, and sneak over there.”
At the same time, undead people kept rushing back into this land. All the undead people tacitly added various magic to themselves before passing through the portal to reduce their presence, make themselves invisible, eliminate sounds and body odors, etc.
The undead’s package contains everything. Except for a small number of people who like stealth gameplay, most people think that stealth is not fun because the NPCs are too smart and the frustration caused by failure is too strong.
In this situation, the undead will only work hard to study ways to increase the success rate of stealth.
Now this “ghost operation” has begun so blatantly.
Fortunately, considering the instability of space, Legion Commander Mag did not station the army directly next to the portal, but kept a certain distance away. However, it was this distance that became an opportunity for the undead to catch their breath.
They landed on the land, crouched down, and crept away quietly.
Flowing like clouds and running water, so familiar.
They have all assassinated the BOSS before, and although they couldn’t take away much blood, this group of “invaders” are far inferior to the BOSS.
Teams of undead met each other, greeted each other, and then tacitly formed a temporary legion, marching quickly towards the temporary coordinates given by Lind.
Armored knights riding on tusked elephants were roaming around.
The expedition consumed a horrible amount of resources, so they could only keep plundering. Except for the top strong men in the tower stone pillars who could not be provoked, the armored knights had already swept away twelve small forces.
Those lowly cursers who lived in caves, crevices, mud pits and other places had to hand over their earnings obediently under the beating of spiked chain hammers.
“If a few people don’t die, they won’t realize it.”
The tusk-like armored knight gently swung the weapon in his hand, and the wind from the chain hammer whistled incessantly.
Behind him was the team responsible for transporting supplies, fully armed and filled with irrepressible joy.
What a great harvest! We have finally reached the target number for the latest period.
“Whoosh-“
A thick and heavy arrow flew without warning, accurately missed the head of the Tusked Elephant Armored Knight, brushed his shoulder, and flew in a parabolic arc into the head of the cursed soldier who was escorting supplies behind him.
The sticky juice splashed.
His head was nailed to the wheel of the supply truck behind him, and his body was dragged by the powerful force. The truck full of supplies also shook violently and almost overturned.
The armored knight flew away and turned to look behind him, looking at the terrifying long arrow that was as long as his height.
“Enemy attack!”
Woo woo, the horn blows.
the other side.
“Depend on!”
The undead clapped his hands in frustration and put away the giant bow.
“Just a little bit.”
The enemy was only as big as an ant in their sight after the super long-range sniping. So the undead gathered together and decided to let the only pure strength knight on the scene draw his bow and shoot arrows.
With more people playing games, all kinds of naughty and cheap ways of playing will emerge.
A pure strength and violent knight, whose magic resistance depends entirely on equipment, who does not use any magic, and is an extremely muscular man.
In this game world where magic is the dominant force, this is undoubtedly an outlier, but it is this outlier that can satisfy some unique weapons comparable to siege equipment.
And as an undead unit, it can easily absorb all magical gains from its companions.
When the undead are PVPing with each other, the pure strength knight with low magic resistance is very weak and can be easily suppressed, but on the battlefield, he is a missile-level powerhouse and can attack outside the enemy’s sight.
“continue!”
After several consecutive sniper attacks, the enemy was prepared and the attack did not have much effect.
“Attack.”
“The wizard group is ready.”
“Why would we need to do that when we have so many people?”
The undead man rushed forward roaring “Ura”.
The Tusked Elephant Armored Knight was in a state of tension at this moment. The enemy’s attack came from beyond his sight. Even if he squinted his eyes and looked far away, he could only see ant-sized figures.
Ordinary people see ant-sized figures, and the distance between the two sides is about 500-1000 meters, but the strong men at the hero level can easily run over 500 meters with just a step. In their eyes, the size of an ant is a distance that even heroes cannot easily cross.
Then the armored knight saw the “ants” running towards him, there were not many of them, only a few hundred.
When they rushed to him, the armored knight saw clearly that those “ants” were actually all humans!
“Why are there so many humans?”
Judging from the direction, it seemed to be the portal… Could it be that the portal was lost? They wanted to invade the material plane, but were invaded by the material plane instead?
An outrageous feeling came over me.
The Cursed Land invaded the Material Plane because of resource scarcity. Why did the Material Plane invade the Cursed Land? It can’t be because it was cursed.
Magical spells of various colors streaked across the sky, like a gorgeous rainbow that dyed the dim sky into a variety of brilliant colors.
The red light fell to the ground and exploded into a wall of fire. The blue wind hit the wall of fire, and the wall of fire turned into a twisting fire tornado on the spot. The soldiers around were burned and their faces hurt.
Icicles, rocks, blasted tangled vines…
The cursed soldiers, who had never come into such close contact with magic, tasted the pain from magic with their own bodies.
“boom!”
The armored knight’s head suddenly felt heavy as he was hit by a rock as big as a human head. However, the damage was not enough to defeat him.
But when he looked up, he realized how bad the situation was.
Someone spread a curtain of fire in the sky. Rocks as big as human heads passed through the curtain of fire, dragging their burning tails and turning into meteors to smash towards them.
I am just a small team of heavy-armored knights who are plundering resources. How could I deserve to be hit by such horrific magic?
“Boom!”
The ground was shaking wildly.
The tusk elephant twisted its body restlessly until a familiar long arrow pierced through its head like a skewer.
As cursed creatures, their brains are not a fatal weakness. They are not much different from the disasters of the abyss, and this tenacious vitality often leaves their enemies helpless.
But the attack that followed swept the Tusk elephant under the armored knight’s crotch, hitting it continuously, causing the Tusk elephant’s body to shake and finally fall to the ground with a “bang”.
The attack hasn’t stopped yet.
Until the tuskers really lost their vitality completely.
The flames of war corroded his ears, his consciousness was blurred, and the armored knight, who was not seriously injured, fell to the ground in a daze, as if he was caught up in a terrible battle of magic between powerful men, and the role he played in it was a fallen leaf blown away by the wind of magic.
Finally, the impact stopped.
The world is quiet, and I can take a breath and relax. “You’re too harsh.” A voice came from my ear.
“Search to see if there is anything else that can be used.”
Those people were collecting spoils.
“Can I eat the meat of this elephant?”
The armored knight was pretending to be dead, but his mind was full of question marks.
“I think ivory should be quite valuable.”
“I want the elephant whip.”
“This armor is completely deformed.”
“We are the ones who don’t have to die with all our strength.”
You are being modest.
The armored knight complained inwardly.
He had fought in all his life, but this was the first time he was surrounded by an all-out attack without actually seeing the enemy.
Winning a war is not just about winning, but also about resource allocation. After all, most wars are started because of resource issues. If you can only earn 1 by winning a war, but spend 10, it is better not to fight the war.
But this group of people fought at a cost of 100, and in the end they only got less than 1% of the spoils.
madman?
If the material plane is filled with lunatics like this, the Cursed Land will be doomed.
The reason why they dare to invade at will is not because they are strong enough, but because those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. Anyway, I have nothing to defeat, so I will retreat. I can lose countless times because I am already penniless, but as long as I win once, I can turn things around.
The undead searched for resources frantically like a swarm of locusts, carrying away everything they could see. Every corpse on the ground was naked, not even underwear was left behind.
Everyone turned into hamsters and stockpiled goods crazily, taking them away regardless of whether they were useful or not.
In this situation, the situation of the armored knight who had been pretending to be dead became very delicate. He waited quietly, not knowing whether he should take action directly and die heroically, or continue to pretend to be dead.
“Get up, stop pretending, I know you’re not dead.”
came the voice.
The armored knight opened his eyes and sat up.
He resigned himself to looking at the anti-invaders from the material plane, only to find that they were very far away from each other. The front row was made up of knights carrying shields, the back row was made up of wizards always ready to chant spells, and behind them were various auxiliary professions that added status.
There are so many of you and I am alone. Do I need to be so careful?
“Are there any other territories nearby?”
“Yes, but very poor.”
The Armored Knight thought that he should explain the situation in detail, so that these people would not make a wasted trip and end up venting their anger on him.
“We’ve taken all the valuables. There’s no need for you to go.”
“Don’t worry, we are good people. We won’t take a single needle or thread. We are just going to take a look.”
“Ah?” The armored knight was puzzled.
“lead the way!”
The undead also wanted to find a weak person to lead the way, but they used too much force in the previous wave of attack, resulting in only the armored knight surviving after the magic cleansing.
I just made do with it.
“There is a cave nearby.” The armored knight said, “The dog-mouthed people live inside.”
He led the way obediently until they saw the burrow of the Dog-Mouthed people.
“Brothers, come on!”
“Remember, take everything except the needle and thread!”
Another locust invasion.
First rob and then kill, the means are so brutal that even the armored knights who have been fighting and killing in the cursed land for years can’t help but feel a chill in their hearts.
“The next place.” The undead looked at the armored knights, like hungry beasts eyeing their delicious prey.
The same situation is happening in many places.
Tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, even millions of undead came to the cursed land for a counter-invasion. With the mentality of being prepared to bear the consequences, they would pull out any weeds they saw as they passed by, causing the cursed land, which already had no signs of life, to have several difficult-to-cover up bald spots.
The third tallest tower stone pillar.
21 Assists and others were excited, they didn’t expect that reinforcements would really arrive.
Coincidentally, someone over there discovered their predicament and came to support them.
“It should be just a coincidence.” Qiuyue analyzed seriously, “There is compensation from the official website, but as the people who discovered the bug and exploited it, we didn’t get any special thanks?”
“Just get those wizards out, there will be great benefits.”
Keyword blocking.
They have already realized the terrifying nature of the local Jawbone Lord, who can not only monitor them around the clock, but can even directly hack into their system chat function.
This feeling of breaking the fourth wall gives them a headache but also makes them feel excited. This is how games are fun.
If they could not accept various tasks and there was not a golden exclamation mark [!] above Lind’s head, they would really think that they were not playing a game, but projecting their consciousness into a world by wearing a helmet, controlling the people created by that world to take risks.
“How?”
“Do you have any solution?”
“Of course… there’s nothing I can do!”
Within the range of the third tallest tower stone pillar where Lord Jawbone exists, it is difficult for the undead to successfully invade, not taking into account the red-armored soldiers outside who are moving their bodies like zombies.
Unless Lind can bring strong players to fight for him.
It’s impossible. The portal not only limits the invasion of the Cursed Land, but also limits the counter-invasion of the material plane.
“Actually, I have an idea.”
The Dark Mage Dio suddenly spoke, Mandarin is just good.
Those who don’t know would just think they were communicating using magic spells.
But this kind of thing cannot be done frequently, as it will arouse vigilance, and if the prisoners are detained separately, the result will be counterproductive.
“any solution?”
“But we need the cooperation of those outside to be captured. Lord Jawbone likes to capture humans to study magic, right? He will definitely not let go of any human who can use magic.”
“You mean to arrest and lock them all up? Although this place is quite large, it seems that we can’t let so many people go.”
“No, I can definitely let it go.”
“You mean…”
understood.
“And then we fight our way out together?”
“Yes, complete the task while the chaos is going on.”
“You guys are dreaming.” 21 assists said, “They haven’t had enough fun yet.”
“…”
“Does that mean we have to wait a little longer?”
What rescue mission? Please wait a moment. You have to queue up to save the princess. They just want to experience the new map and pick up trash like crazy.
Locusts are sweeping across the Cursed Lands.
Scrape the ground three feet.
