Chapter 196 Ocean War, Spirit of Creation (Subscription Request)
The royal court warriors retreated to Tianyuan City and completely gave up the idea of leaving the city and engaging in a head-on battle with the Naga army. They relied on various defensive facilities and magic circles in the city to launch a counterattack.
This caused considerable trouble to the Naga army.
But for the time being, the Naga army, lacking siege equipment, really had no good way to deal with them.
After all, this is the deep sea, and many land siege equipment cannot be used directly, plus Tianyuan City’s defense system is too perfect.
Various magic circles work together to demonstrate endless power.
The entire Tianyuan City seemed to have turned into an iron hedgehog, able to fight and resist, but not touched by outsiders.
To be honest, Tianyuan City's defense system was somewhat beyond Kedel's expectations.
Before this, he had attacked Tianyuan City before, but the army was not strong enough at that time and failed to force out this defense system.
Kedel didn't know that this system was actually only recently improved and did not exist from the beginning.
After all, where there are difficulties, there are demands.
Before the rise of the Naga Kingdom, in the entire ocean world, except for the Whale Alliance, no other forces had enough strength to threaten the Giant Shark King's Court.
The Whale Alliance does not like to expand and only cares about its own piece of land. Under normal circumstances, it will not attack the main city of the royal court, so there is no need to improve the city’s defense system.
Because it would be useless to build it, as no other force dared to attack them.
So instead of wasting these resources, it would be better to train more extraordinary warriors and continue to expand the territory.
However, with the rise of the Naga Kingdom, considering their habits, the Giant Shark King's Court did not believe that it could live in peace with the other side, and it was only a matter of time before the two sides went to war.
Therefore, the city defense plan that was thrown into the trash in the early years was picked up again, and a lot of resources were invested to successfully establish a defense system.
Before this, Smod had thought that the royal court was making a fuss out of nothing. To deal with the Naga army, they didn't need any external help at all. They could just attack head-on.
As a result, the current situation on the battlefield slapped him hard in the face. It turned out that this defense system was still useful.
However, no matter how powerful it is, its shortcomings are also obvious.
The consumption is too great.
It is so big that even Tianyuan City cannot afford it.
Looking at the madly burning energy crystals, Smodeus's face turned grim. The consumption of this system was too exaggerated. According to this trend, Tianyuan City's crystal reserves would not last long.
"It's really troublesome. There's even a turtle shell hidden in it."
Kedel looked at the energy shield above the city and felt a little tricky. He then smiled coldly: "Continue to attack. I want to see how long they can hold out with such a large defense shield!"
"Naga warrior, switch to the shield-breaking spear. Don't hold back. Use all your strength and shoot through this turtle shell." The Naga warrior stopped and took the special short spear from behind him. His arm muscles bulged, and then he suddenly shot forward.
As the short spear shot through, the elements were quickly released, transforming into a long and thick elemental cannon.
Tens of thousands of terrifying cannonballs hit the energy shield.
bang bang bang-
"Stop it!!!"
Terrifying explosions sounded, and the energy shield began to shake violently amid the continuous explosions, as if it was about to collapse in the next second.
The Royal Court warriors watched the changes in the shield nervously, shouting loudly, and their heartbeats quickened.
Fortunately, after a period of violent shaking, the energy shield began to shine again, and the entire shield was refreshed and completely stabilized.
The royal court warriors all breathed a sigh of relief.
Then they fell into a war of attrition again. The Naga army used various methods to attack the energy shield, trying to break through the defense system of Tianyuan City.
Legions attack in unison, special weapons strike with coverage, and strong men attack together...
However, even the concentrated attack with energy level reaching the semi-god realm was unable to break through Tianyuan City's defense system.
After all, this is the strategic location chosen by the Giant Shark King's Court to resist the attack of the Naga Kingdom. If they can't even do this, it would be a bit of an underestimation of them.
Seeing this, Kedel, the regional lord and commander-in-chief of the army, was a little annoyed, but he did not lose his mind and he responded quickly.
Ten thousand Naga warriors, led by thirty thousand murloc warriors and one hundred thousand servant warriors who arrived later, began to clear out the forces of the Giant Shark King's Court around Tianyuan City.
Even though the Naga Kingdom did not conceal its intentions and marched openly, the time left for Tianyuan City was still too short.
In such a short period of time, they can only reduce their forces in the core areas. As for other places, they can only leave it to fate.
If there is a city nearby, hide in it. If there is no city, then wait for death.
They are just servants, not important at all.
In this ocean world, everything is lacking except sea creatures.
As long as they can preserve the foundation of the royal court, they can have as many other sea servants as they want.
Tianyuan City's laissez-faire policy, coupled with the fact that their resistance was too short, meant that when the Naga army arrived, the other forces affiliated with the royal court were completely unable to stop them.
One blow and they were defeated.
What's more, when the Naga army arrived, he led the entire tribe and chose to surrender directly.
If the strength of the Tianyuan City guards is slightly weaker than that of the Naga army, but they can still put up a fight, then these affiliated armies whose equipment are tattered are basically garbage. They are not even worthy of being the opponents of the Naga army.
Although a Naga army was dispatched to leave Tianyuan City, the pressure on Tianyuan City did not decrease.
Other elite warriors, especially the Naga legions, still besieged Tianyuan City, constantly launching long-range attacks and consuming Tianyuan City’s energy reserves.
Kedel was not in a hurry. He was ready for a protracted war.
He has great confidence in the logistical strength of the Naga Kingdom. In terms of logistics, no other sea tribe force can match them.
Behind them is the Eternal Night Empire!
It was a super empire that occupied two continents and touched the void plane.
With their support, Kedel didn't worry about the logistics of the Naga Kingdom at all.
Yes, his idea is so simple.
Logically speaking, as a superpower, they should form an internal cycle and achieve self-sufficiency, and it is inappropriate to pin their hopes on other forces.
However, one's own family knows one's own business, and the rulers of the Naga Kingdom are very clear about the habits of their own people.
They are just not cut out for this.
It's okay if you let them fight, and if you train them into a legion, they can probably do it.
Forget about managing logistics, building equipment, and developing things.
As the saying goes, it is important for people to know themselves.
The same is true for monsters. Take weapons and equipment for example.
Look at the Giant Shark Court, it has been developing for so many years, but the result is still the same.
The strength of weapons and equipment depends entirely on the materials used.
The Naga Kingdom does not think that it is inferior to the Giant Shark Kingdom. If it chooses to develop itself, it should be able to forge weapons and equipment. However, does this make sense?
Compared with the Eternal Night Empire, it's still garbage.
Instead of wasting time on forging, it is better to provide the materials directly to the Eternal Night Empire and exchange them for high-quality weapons and equipment.
It is precisely this kind of thinking that causes the Naga Kingdom to be highly dependent on the Eternal Night Empire. Once it breaks away, the entire kingdom may collapse.
Fortunately, both of them are dark gods, so this possibility does not exist.
Relying on logistics to wear down the opponent is not a good method, but it is not a bad method either.
If possible, Kedel would still prefer fighting on the battlefield and winning through war.
Even though this will result in increased casualties on our side, but... this method is cool!
Why do they want to become powerful? Isn't it just for their own pleasure?
To die for the ancestral god and return to the embrace of death, isn't that the best destination for these believers! ?
Unfortunately, Tianyuan City did not want this to happen. They did not want to fight to the death with the Naga warriors.
In addition to Tianyuan City, other areas were also fighting. All the lords of the Naga Kingdom set out almost at the same time, personally leading their territory troops to attack the main city of the royal court closest to them.
The defense capabilities of these royal court main cities vary, but even the weakest royal court main city is beyond the imagination of other sea forces.
Fortunately, the Naga Kingdom is not an ordinary force. After years of development, their strength has long surpassed that of the Giant Shark King's Court.
Some of these border cities held out, while others fell directly and fell into the hands of the Naga Kingdom.
Different from the "good deeds" of the Eternal Night Empire in the northern continent, the policy of the Naga Kingdom is simple and crude: those who surrender live, and those who resist die.
manage?
Management shit!
If you don’t want to die, then be obedient, otherwise you will all be sent to feed the sea beasts.
The Naga Kingdom still adheres to the law of the jungle. Here, being weak is the original sin. If you want to gain status and respect, you have to become stronger.
As long as one is strong enough and has made enough achievements, even a former slave can become a high and mighty lord.
The Naga Kingdom does not discriminate against other races.
Not all the lords of the kingdom are Nagas. There are also many foreign races, such as the dark murlocs, crazy sharks, dragon whales, etc.
As long as you believe in the dark gods, the Naga Kingdom is very inclusive and any race can integrate into it.
They can accept even their former mortal enemies.
The Naga Kingdom and the Giant Shark King's Court went into full-scale war, mobilizing more than two million troops. The scale of the war was unprecedented and shocked the entire ocean world.
They realized that the Naga Kingdom was not just making a small move this time, but was serious.
The sea was stained with blood and the corpses sank to the bottom of the sea.
When the two sides were fighting, the entire ocean world was boiling, the flames of war spread in all directions, and there was war everywhere.
In this war, no force can stay out of it. This is not because both sides are targeting them, but a very realistic problem.
The forces on both sides are too huge. When they conflict, it will naturally affect the surrounding forces.
Just like a storm, when two storms collide, the impact will be far greater than the previous one, and everything will be caught in it and torn to pieces.
Therefore, other sea forces have only two choices: either join the camp of the Naga Kingdom or join the camp of the Giant Shark King's Court.
As for not adding the two together, just wait and see independently?
Want to eat fart!
If you want to sit on the sidelines and watch, first of all you have to be strong enough. Unfortunately, in the ocean of this plane, only the Whale Alliance can barely meet this standard.
If other sea clan forces want to avoid the two, they can only become fuel for these two war machines.
The war between the sea clan forces is very brutal, sometimes hundreds of thousands of soldiers would die in a single day. The siege was not as difficult as on land, so the process was faster.
But even so, given the huge size of both sides, it will take at least several decades to end this war.
…………
In a remote sea area, there is an archipelago.
In this remote sea area, the archipelago is like a bunch of shining pearls, dotted on the blue sea.
The sun shines on the sea, the waves are sparkling, and the blue sky and white clouds complement each other, forming a beautiful picture.
The archipelago is covered with dense tropical rainforests, lush and green. The tall and straight trees with luxuriant branches and leaves block out the sun, bringing vitality and vigor to this land.
In addition to the tropical rainforest, the archipelago also has vast grasslands and beaches. The grasslands are covered with green grass, and herds of cattle and sheep are leisurely eating grass; and the golden beaches have clear waters, making them a great place for swimming and diving.
Here, the gifts of nature are displayed vividly, allowing people to clearly feel the magic and beauty of nature.
Several fishing boats were slowly approaching from the distant coastline. The fishermen on them were dark-skinned, strong, and wearing animal skin clothes, full of wildness and natural beauty.
They had patterns painted on their faces with strange pigments, like the symbols of a certain tribe.
"We had a good catch on this fishing trip, enough to last us for a while." A man on the fishing boat said happily with a look of delight on his face.
"The harvest is really good. When I was a kid, I would go out with my dad and it would take several days, and sometimes we would return empty-handed. Now every time I go out, I gain something, which is much better than before."
"I don't know what's going on recently, but I feel like there are a lot more fish around here."
The fishermen chatted with joy on their faces.
Although they haven't been hungry for a long time as the tribe has developed, no one would complain about having too much food.
Moreover, the food given by the temple can only keep their family fed and clothed. If they want to practice and become stronger and become extraordinary warriors, they have to work hard on their own.
Returning to the archipelago, the solid feeling of stepping on the beach made all the fishermen feel at ease.
Although they are all good at swimming and can even fight with sea creatures in the sea.
But as human beings, their home turf is still land.
"Thanks to the spirit of fate, I am back alive again."
The fishermen did not rush to unload the catch. Instead, they gathered in a circle and prayed devoutly to their gods, the spirit of creation, thanking the gods for their protection and for keeping them alive.
Their voices echoed in the sea breeze, accompanying the rhythm of the waves, appearing particularly solemn and sacred.
