Chapter 149: The Beginning of the Regional Qualifying Tournament, Goblins and Ogres (Additional Chapter 45)

There was really nothing to prepare for returning to this plane. Su Xingyu had his clansmen start preparing for battle several months ago.

So after returning, he issued an oracle to all his clansmen in his identity as a god, and then, in his identity as a consul, he informed the Council of Elders of the upcoming trial and asked them to think about how to deal with it.

The Council of Elders has more ideas than he does, and professional matters should be left to professionals.

As the rules of the ranking competition were announced, the players in the primary realm were instantly in an uproar. Some players were envious, some were jealous, and some were regretful...

They didn't expect that this regional qualifying competition would be so simple and would be conducted entirely in the shadow world.

The shadow world will never truly die, which means that as long as you can participate, it will be a sure win.

However, no matter what they thought in their hearts, they could not stop the countdown of the system time.

Su Xingyu glanced at his attribute panel.

As the system counts down to zero.

[System prompt: The player has entered the shadow world. (Note: The time flow rate in the shadow world has been adjusted to 1:300)]

The surrounding environment did not change at all. Silently, Su Xingyu and the entire plane were pulled into the shadow world.

[System prompt: The first wave of shadow warriors has appeared. Please kill them all or hold on until the time is up.]

(First wave (1/9))
(Time: 720:00:00)

……

Far away, at the border of the empire, southwest of the Canglan River, in the wild land, a thick fog fell from the sky, enveloping the entire empire.

The next second, the fog surged wildly, and a short green-skinned monster walked out of it.

Soon, hundreds of thousands of green-skinned monsters gathered outside the fog.

They were wearing tattered armor, holding wooden-handled hammers, with ferocious faces, eyes as red as fire, and their bodies covered with rough green skin, as if they were the wild embodiment of nature.

They let out low roars, as if announcing the coming of disaster.

This is the lowest race in the monster world.
Green goblin.

But unlike ordinary goblins, the strength of these goblins generally reaches the third level, and there are a small number of mid-level extraordinary ones among them.

Before the green goblins could be arrogant for too long, the fog behind them surged again, and soon, tall figures walked out.

"Ow—"

It also has green skin, but darker, is over four meters tall, has a huge body, a bulging belly, and has two heads, one big and one small.

Two-headed ogre.

There were more than ten thousand ogres walking out, and their extraordinary levels generally reached the middle level. Among them was a seventh-level epic ogre leader.

As soon as the ogre walked out of the fog and looked at the green-skinned goblin in front of him, he began to drool. He secretly glanced at the leader beside him and saw that it was not looking at him.

So the ogre reached out his hand and a goblin fell into his hand. The goblin was terrified and was about to roar, but the ogre pinched it.

"Click..."

The goblin's neck was broken, its head tilted, and it died instantly. The armor was stripped off, and the ogre tore off one of its legs and began to bite it.

Before the battle even started, thousands of goblins died at the hands of their companions in just one encounter.

"Roar--"

The ogre leader was very annoyed when he saw his men attacking the goblins. He roared angrily, "Stop, all of you idiots, stop right there. They are your subordinates, not your food!!!"

At the roar of the ogre leader, the ogres who were attacking the goblins immediately stopped their actions, with a hint of fear in their eyes.

"Follow me, attack forward, and kill all the creatures in front of you!!!" The Ogre Leader roared again, and then led the Ogre Legion and hundreds of thousands of Goblin troops to rush towards the border city not far away.

In a blink of an eye, they arrived under the city wall, and the defenders on it were well prepared.

After all, Su Xingyu had issued an oracle yesterday and notified all his clans, which naturally included the affiliated monster tribes in the Canglan River area.

Therefore, under Harvey's arrangement, the Monster Alliance transferred troops to the border city to strengthen the military force here.

This is the Canglan River area. The garrisoned army is naturally a monster race. There are as many as 70 garrisons, mainly jackals and ogres. These two races are still the main body of the Monster Alliance today. The combined number of the two races accounts for more than % of the Monster Alliance.

"Ogres, and this is... Goblins?" Looking at the greenskin army under the city wall, the defending soldiers on the city wall all looked a little surprised.

The ogres are okay, they are still pretty capable of fighting.

What kind of rubbish are Goblins? Since when did even such rubbish have the qualifications to test them! ?

"Fuck, a bunch of trash, they dare to attack us, let's blow them to death!!!" The leader of the jackal garrison was very annoyed, and without waiting for the greenskin army to approach, he immediately ordered the gunners to aim and fire.

As a border city of the empire, it needs to face foreign enemies directly. It is equipped with dozens of epic cannons and hundreds of 2.0 version of gold-level magic cannons.

Following the order from the garrison commander, hundreds of magic cannons fired directly.

Boom boom boom——

In an instant, the sky was lit up by flames, and countless artillery shells streaked across the sky, hitting the greenskin army under the city wall like meteors.

The ogres and goblins were shocked by the power of the shells, and they fled in all directions, trying to avoid this deadly attack. However, the power of the magic cannon was too strong and the range was too wide, so they couldn't run away at all. No matter whether it was a goblin or an ogre, once they were hit, they were directly turned into pieces.

Blood and flesh flew everywhere, broken limbs and arms were scattered all over the ground, and the screams of ogres and goblins rose one after another, forming a mournful symphony.

The soldiers guarding the city wall all smiled with satisfaction when they saw this scene.

The weak goblins actually dared to offend the Eternal Night Empire. This is what happened.

The cannon fired ten rounds of conventional shots, and the greenskin army was scattered. Tens of thousands of greenskin soldiers died directly. This directly stimulated the goblins, and they were almost about to retreat.

However, at this moment, the ogre leader roared again, and all the ogres followed suit, their eyes turned scarlet, revealing madness and cruelty.

The goblins were affected and developed the same symptoms. They became fearless and, under the leadership of the ogre army, launched a death charge towards the city.

"A fellow who overestimates his own capabilities!" The leader of the jackal garrison sneered, a bit of disdain on his face, and ordered the gunners to continue firing.

If it is just a conventional attack, the magic cannon can bombard continuously for several hours if there is sufficient energy supply.

In an instant, the violent roar sounded again, as loud as thunder, deafening.

Boom boom boom————

Large groups of green-skinned monsters were harvested. They came in a frenzy, but fell down in large numbers like weeds, and their deaths were extremely miserable.

However, after suffering huge casualties, they finally arrived at the foot of the city wall. Looking at the towering city wall, the ogres roared, put down their weapons, grabbed a goblin with both hands, and then threw it towards the city wall.

"Gah-"

With terrified roars, the goblins soared into the sky and flew towards the city wall.

"Ah……"

The commander of the defending army couldn't help but twitch his eyes when he saw such an outrageous method of siege for the first time. This was a nearly 20-meter-high city wall. With the physique of the goblins, if they were hit like this, even if they didn't die, they would probably be seriously injured.

But even so, he did not sit still and wait for death. He immediately ordered the kobold priest to launch an attack. Fireballs flew all over the sky, forming a fireball net. The flying goblins exploded directly when they touched it, and then turned into a charred corpse and fell to the ground.

A few lucky ones stepped over the fireball net and landed on the city wall. As soon as they landed, before they could recover, the long-awaited jackal warriors swarmed over them.

The long sword swung.

Blood flowed everywhere and a ferocious head flew up.

"Gunners, crossbowmen, aim at the ogre legion and eliminate them first." Seeing more and more goblins flying over, the jackal defenders had to change the order and prepare to kill the stronger ogres first.

At present, it seems that this green army is led by ogres, and the goblins are just cannon fodder. As long as the ogre army is eliminated, the remaining goblins will naturally collapse.

Under the horrific attack of magic cannons and crossbows, the ogre army suffered heavy damage in an instant. Their strong physiques and armor became as fragile as paper.

Faced with the mountain-like city walls, they were helpless.

Jump on?
It’s not that it’s impossible, but once you leave the ground, you’ll really become a target.

Ogres are not fools. They have two heads, one is more violent and suitable for fighting, and the other is more intelligent and suitable for thinking.

So they knew very well that when facing the enemy's long-range attacks, they might still be able to dodge them while on the ground, but if they really tried to jump onto the city wall, they would only end up dead.

After a while of wasting time, 50% of the Ogre Legion's warriors were directly killed under the deliberate targeting of the Wolf Guard.

But even so, the ogre leader did not issue an order to retreat. They continued to charge towards the city, withstand attacks from above, and rammed the city gates.

"Haha...you're really a guy who is not afraid of death." The jackal leader looked at the injured ogre leader and sneered when he saw that the other party still insisted on attacking and refused to retreat.

The courage is commendable, but the strength is not enough.

So he gave the order to the gunner:
"Elite gunner, super-limit strike, target the Ogre Commander."

The magic cannon exploded with full force, and terrifying energy cannons gathered at such an insanely fast speed that the already injured Ogre Leader had no way to avoid it and could only take it head-on.

It roared, and its whole body was glowing with blood. It swept the huge mace in its hand upwards, and the crescent-shaped red light hit the energy cannon.

boom--

Snapped--

With a loud bang and the sound of glass breaking, the red light was shattered, and then the energy cannon directly covered the ogre leader within a radius of dozens of meters.

With a shrill scream, the flesh and blood of the ogre leader gradually fell off, and finally he fell backwards turning into a pile of broken bones.

As for the green-skinned monsters around it, they were not so lucky. Under the horrific bombardment of the energy cannon, they did not even leave their corpses, and directly turned into ashes and dissipated.

When the shelling ended, a huge hole with a radius of several dozen meters and a depth of several meters was left at the scene.

Such terrifying power instantly shocked all the green-skinned monsters.

"Jackal Legion, follow me and kill the enemy!" Upon seeing this, the Jackal Leader no longer hesitated, and immediately made a decision, leading tens of thousands of Jackal warriors to charge out.

This jackal army is divided into two levels. Two thousand of them are dark jackals who have undergone a complete corruption and transformed into dark creatures, and the other eight thousand are ordinary jackals who have undergone a partial corruption and transformed into semi-dark creatures.

As for the original Jackal?
Sorry, they are too weak and not brave enough to be jackal warriors and have gone to engage in production work.

No matter whether they are dark jackal warriors or ordinary jackal warriors, their extraordinary rank has reached at least the fourth level.

This is normal. After enduring such painful hardships and having no shortage of resources, if they still cannot be promoted to the intermediate level, they might as well find a piece of tofu and kill themselves.

As the city gates opened, the greenskin army, which had been somewhat lost, rushed in like a tide in an instant, like fireflies finding a light in the dark night.

"Die to me!!!"

The jackal leader showed disdain and swept out with his long sword. The black sword energy that gathered the power of the legion was more than a hundred meters long, like a scythe of the god of death, reaping the lives of the enemies in front of him.

With just one strike, hundreds of green-skinned monsters were killed.

The warriors of the Jackal Legion kept swinging their swords, their fighting spirit surging out. They didn't care about the consumption of the fighting spirit in their bodies at all.

The sword energy is everywhere.

The jackal warrior's eyes were as cold as ice. He kept moving forward and swinging his sword, and the green-skinned monsters fell down in groups.

The ogre warrior was not weak in strength, but he seemed so vulnerable under the attack of the jackal warrior. His body was cut into pieces by the sword energy, and blood and flesh flew everywhere.

The entire battlefield was dyed red and green with blood, like a bloody painting.

But what is surprising is that even after encountering such a horrific and cruel killing, the cowardly goblins did not flee. Instead, they raised their weapons and attacked the jackal warriors.

What's the result?
Naturally, they were harvested with one knife, and they were harvested together with their companions.
