Chapter 287 Tripartite Talks, Stoneman Empire
A mysterious space.
Three illusory brilliant lights and shadows sat quietly on the throne.
"The location of the plane continent has changed. There are new players bordering my land. I don't know if they are new transcendents." One of the taller, brown-yellow figures who looked extremely sturdy and strong, giving people a very reliable feeling, spoke.
"So what if it is, so what if it isn't? Now you and I have both been promoted to true gods. The so-called transcendents are only demigods. They claim to be able to compete with true gods, but it's just a claim. If they really fight, who knows what will happen."
Another shorter but stronger dwarf sneered when he heard this, and said, "Besides, we are more than one person. We have three of us, two True God players and one Pseudo God player. Even if a Transcendent player fights against us, he will suffer."
"Albert is right, Jim. We really don't need to be afraid of them now. Before they were promoted to true gods, they were indeed invincible and no one dared to provoke them. But that's not the case now."
The only demigod present, the dark blue figure of a sea player, nodded slightly, agreeing with his companion's idea. He chuckled and said, "As long as any one of you can hold back his divine body, the other two of us can easily destroy his army of followers, and then gradually reduce the power of his followers, making him weaker and weaker until he dies."
"We still can't be careless. I heard that there are many demigod believers in the Transcendent's forces." Seeing how confident the two were, the Stoneman player Jim felt a lot more at ease, but he still felt that he couldn't be too confident, otherwise he would be doomed if he failed.
Now it's not just a certain army on the battlefield, but the entire plane is on the battlefield.
They cannot lose, and cannot afford to lose.
"Jim, when did you become so timid? You are afraid of this and that. Do you still want to fight?" The dwarf player Albert looked at the stone man player with some dissatisfaction. If this guy was not very powerful, he would not have cooperated with such a coward.
"Don't worry, don't worry. We have plenty of time. Just take your time."
Darren, who was also a player in the North District, saw this and quickly advised, "It is now basically certain that after the position change, the player bordering the three of us is the Transcendent from the East District. Only his plane can have such a rich spiritual environment and a dark atmosphere."
"It's difficult to destroy ordinary players, let alone Transcendents. So we have to do it step by step. We can't be too hasty."
Jim immediately gave Darren a look that said "You know what I mean." He quickly nodded and said, "That's what I mean. We have to fight, but we can't just send troops over without knowing anything, right? We don't have any intelligence about the enemy, and it would be too rash to just go to war like this."
"Discuss, discuss, what can we come up with?"
Albert shouted angrily, "If you want intelligence, just send a few vassal armies over there and fight them. Then you'll know everything! Besides, we don't know His intelligence, and He knows nothing about us either. If we fight a few more battles, he'll know everything."
"If you ask me, we should mobilize the entire army now while he is still unsure of our identities and catch him off guard. It would be best if we can inflict a heavy blow on him. Then all his good things will be ours!" As he spoke, Albert's eyes flashed with extreme greed.
Greed is actually one of the main reasons for this war.
Players who have been promoted to true gods want to obtain the treasures held by those players who are still in the demigod realm.
At this stage, the Transcendent is both a huge threat to some players, but also a rare treasure.
As long as they can kill them... no, let's not even talk about killing them, as long as they can get into the heart of the empire and seize those main cities, that will be enough for them to earn.
then.
Three days later.
Some problems occurred on the border of the Eternal Night Empire.
Northern border.
On the barren land, a vast and endless army of monsters swept in with great momentum.
Walking in the front was the heavy cavalry corps. They rode on strong and ferocious beasts that looked like bulls, covered in armor. From a distance they looked like small tanks.
After the cavalry came the ordinary stoneman legion.
These stone warriors are generally three meters tall and look like humans, but they have an extra layer of brown stone armor skin on their bodies, which greatly enhances their defensive capabilities.
In addition to these ordinary stone warriors, there are also some behemoths.
As they moved forward, the ground began to tremble and make noises.
bang bang bang-
In the sky, there are a large number of tamed flying beasts and several sky legions.
As the strength of players increases and the power of believers grows, except for some extremely special players, their forces tend to be multi-racial.
With one race as the main body and other races as auxiliary, they are integrated through a unified belief, thus making up for the deficiencies of a single race in all aspects and achieving omnipotence.
The same is true for the Stoneman Empire, so this army includes not only the powerful Stoneman Legion, but also legions of other races, including orcs, humans, and dwarves.
However, influenced by the favor of the gods, some minor changes have occurred between them and their original race.
Well, to put it simply, they have an extra 'blood of stone' in their bodies.
The regular soldiers of the main army legion have generally reached the sixth level of the extraordinary realm, while those of the servant legions have also reached the middle level of the extraordinary realm, possessing two characteristics.
It has a complete range of military units and their extraordinary ranks are not low. It can be said that this is a very powerful army.
To be able to send out so many legions for a tentative attack shows how deep the foundation of the Stoneman Empire is.
This army of stone men marched forward towards the nearest main city, ignoring the small towns and tribes along the way and having no idea what they were doing.
This is not because they are kind, they just don't want to waste time.
First they need to capture the important cities, then they can send more legions in, and then it will be easy to clean up the "garbage".
However, before the Stoneman coalition army reached the main border city of the Eternal Night Empire, they were intercepted halfway.
The Eternal Night Army of nearly 100,000 people stood like a city wall on the vast wasteland, blocking the way of the Stone Man Army.
"What an arrogant force! With such a small number of people, instead of guarding the city, they actually dare to take the initiative to attack and intercept us. They really don't know how to live or die!" The Stone Man Commander looked at the Eternal Night army opposite and couldn't help feeling a little annoyed.
Even though the army he commanded at this time was not entirely composed of the elite troops of the Stoneman Empire, but with those servant legions, there were at least hundreds of thousands of them, and they had all the necessary configurations.
As a result, the other side, with only 100,000 people, blocked his way without any preparation.
This is a bit too much of an underestimation of him!
"Warriors of the Stone Lord, it's time to show your strength and disperse the enemies in front of you!"
There was no conversation between the two sides as the battle was about to break out. The Sky Legion of the Stoneman Army took the lead in launching an attack. With a command from the legion commander, countless spears shot down from the sky like rain.
"It's been a long time since any force dared to take the initiative to attack us!"
The commander of the Eternal Night Army looked at the Stoneman Heavy Cavalry charging from the opposite side and a smile appeared on his face.
Ever since the planes were unified, the soldiers of the Eternal Night Empire's legions have felt like they have nowhere to vent, and their lives have become uncomfortable.
Even though the plane expanded later and many new "friends" were added, those friends were too fragile and often did not require the deployment of regular troops, but were dealt with by civilian organizations.
And now, their true opponent has finally appeared.
"defense!"
Without the command of Commander Yongye, the entire army seemed to pause for a moment, and then a vast fighting spirit rose up, forming a black shield above, directly blocking the attacking spears.
The spears hit the shield, making a bang bang bang sound. "The Stoneman Heavy Cavalry Corps looks quite interesting."
Vergil, the commander of the Eternal Night, smiled slightly and immediately gave the order: "Earth Dragon Knights, attack!"
"Follow me and show them what real heavy cavalry is like!"
The strong and burly metal giant legion leader clamped his legs together, and the earth dragon under him immediately roared, then rushed out quickly, followed closely by the earth dragon knight behind him.
"rush!"
"Kill!"
"Ow!"
Overall, the Earth Dragon Knight, who looked taller and more powerful than the Stoneman Heavy Cavalry, rushed out while shouting strangely.
At this moment, the earth was really shaking, making a sound like thunder.
Soon, the two heavily armored knight legions were about to meet.
The Stoneman Legion leader sneered, then picked up the powerful crossbow with an inscription on it and fired three shots in a row at the attacking Earth Dragon Knight.
"You are a bunch of idiots, go to hell!"
The stone knight behind him was also very skilled.
Whoosh whoosh—
For a moment, arrows rained down.
The specially made magic arrows arrived in front of the Earth Dragon Knight Legion in an instant. The huge Earth Dragon Knights had no way to dodge and could only take the attack.
ding ding ding-
The powerful magic arrows hit their armor, creating sparks and a series of noises.
But there was no breakthrough.
The few arrows that penetrated the heavy armor were blocked by their body defenses.
Theoretically speaking, the surface defense of the Earth Dragon Knight is actually stronger than the heavy armor outside, and far stronger.
"How can it be!"
Seeing this scene, the Stoneman Legion leader's eyes almost popped out. This was an armor-piercing arrow with magic blessing. Even an epic being would be injured if he took it head-on, but it didn't even break the defense!
"It's just a small trick."
The Earth Dragon Legion leader sneered and didn't even slow down, as if the arrow attack just now was just a mosquito bite.
A distance of one thousand meters is just a blink of an eye for two sixth-order cavalry corps.
There was no time to do anything as the two heavily armored knight legions collided with each other.
"We are blessed by the earth. Do you think you can fight against us? Dream on!"
The stone knight roared and charged forward, using the impact force to swing his war hammer and smash at the black-armored knight opposite.
The black-armored knight on the opposite side let out a dull roar and chopped with his battle axe.
bang——
With a loud bang, this super heavy cavalryman, who was blessed by the earth and had reached the level of a sixth-order guard, felt a huge force coming, his knuckles cracked, and the hammer in his hand almost slipped out of his hand.
Immediately afterwards, another axe came chopping down. The stone cavalry had no time to be shocked and hurriedly blocked it, narrowly blocking it.
The Dragon Knight's expression could not be seen clearly, but he suddenly exerted force with both hands and pressed the battle axe down.
"Ow—"
The expression on the Stone Knight's face suddenly became extremely ferocious. The ground beneath him continued to transmit power, but he still couldn't stop the downward trend of his battle axe. The ferocious beast mount under him also let out a painful roar, and its thick forelimbs began to slowly bend.
"how"
The Stone Knight couldn't believe it. He couldn't believe that someone could suppress his power when he was at the sixth level of the Transcendental Realm, and suppress it completely.
"Is this your strength? It's just so-so, too weak!"
Feeling the opponent's strength, the Earth Dragon Knight sneered. This strength was not even as good as those militiamen in his hometown who had not received professional training.
The battle axe rose up, then chopped down suddenly.
click -
The hammer handle broke, but the axe's power remained and it split the stone knight and his mount directly into two halves.
Hot blood gushed out, splashing onto the Dragon Knight and the mount beneath him.
After licking the blood at the corner of his mouth, the earth dragon let out a dissatisfied cry, as if he disliked the lack of energy in the blood.
The situation of the rest of the combatants was much the same.
In the Stoneman Empire, the elite heavily-armored Stoneman Knights had almost no resistance against these Earth Dragon Knights.
It was like a collision between a car and a tank, and the car was directly crushed.
After all, this is the Earth Dragon Knight Corps.
In terms of physical defense alone, no army of the same level in the Eternal Night Empire is stronger than them.
He brought the 'devouring bloodline' bestowed by the dark gods to its fullest potential, not only completing the racial transformation with the help of meteorite iron, but also shrinking his body and blood, gaining physical fitness far beyond his peers.
Coupled with the baptism of various imperial heavy weapons, they dare to challenge not only the sixth-level legion, but even if they encounter a real seventh-level legion.
Whether you can win or not is another matter, but at least you won’t die so quickly.
Compared with them, the Stoneman Heavy Knights, who are still in the regular sixth-level legion, are really too fragile.
It breaks when touched.
Following the legion commander, the Earth Dragon Knights kept charging forward, like a steamroller, crushing rows of Stone Knights, very brutally.
At the same time, the armies on both sides began to collide head-on.
"For His Majesty Yongye! Kill!"
"For the Lord of Mountains and Rivers, Charge!"
