Chapter 134: The Battlefield of Luoyan Mountain
Afternoon.
Just as I was sparring with Orange Night to improve my skill proficiency, Ah Fei's voice came from the outside world: "Ah Li, did you hear the news of the system announcement?" The Scarlet Crusade is about to begin! β
"Scarlet Crusade?"
I was slightly stunned: "What do you mean?" β
"Damn, you can't hear the system announcement?"
"We're not in the same camp, how do you know I can hear it?" I'm a little speechless.
"That's ......"
He smiled awkwardly: "I sent you the page, I don't know if you can participate." β
"Hmm."
The next moment, a phantom moon's system activity page was sent, and when I opened it, I took a look, and sure enough, it was a text from the Terran border pass county city-
γBattle of Luoyan Mountainγ
The Alien Demon Legion is spying on the territory of our Terran Empire all the time, and now, the Scarlet Royal Court has formed an alliance with the Alien Demon Territory, and launched an attack on the [Night Fire Fortress] in the territory of Linchen County in the area of Luoyan Mountain, warriors from another world, please go out immediately, the honor system has been opened, and you can gain honor and prestige by killing the Scarlet Royal Court unit! Fight, with home behind us, we have no choice!
β¦β¦
This is a small-scale version of the event limited to players in Linchen County, and it is precisely because of this that I didn't get system news, after all, the faction I belong to is the Black Castle, but if I fight the Scarlet Castle, I can participate in it, and I should be able to get some contribution and experience points, right? Maybe you might even be able to burst out of your equipment!
At this moment, a death knight galloped on a bone horse, holding a command flag, and passed near Fengyuntai, shouting: "The battle ahead is urgent! The Scarlet Royal Court army has invaded Luoyan Mountain and threatened the borders of my Black Castle territory! β
Oh? Is it triggered as well?
"Huh?"
In the wind, Master Ding Heng's figure condensed and said, "There is a new movement in the Scarlet Royal Court?" Hmph, at war with the Terrans? It's too much to take our black city in your eyes! β
As he spoke, he whispered into the air: "All the deacons and elders of the outer five pavilions, immediately discuss the affairs of the war hall!" All the disciples of the Outer Five Pavilion are not allowed to go out, and they are ready to fight at any time! β
His voice pierced through the clouds and mist, conveying to every corner of the Outer Five Pavilions, and suddenly one after another, bodies full of surging aura galloped out of the various cave mansions, heading straight for the Outer Five Pavilion Hall.
Ding Heng glanced at me and said with a smile: "Go and see?" β
I nodded, "Good!" β
β¦β¦
Ten minutes later.
In fact, in addition to the left and right camps of the inner three divisions, the outer five pavilions also have their own army, and the war hall is the leader of this army, at this time, the war hall is full of elder-level NPCs, Ding Heng and Zhuang Huaishui are sitting side by side in the center, and the status of the two of them seems to be the highest in the outer five pavilions.
"The Scarlet Royal Court has finally made a move on the area around Luoyan Mountain."
A deacon elder stood up and said, "The territory of the three major forces in the area of Luoyan Mountain, which connects the three major forces of the Scarlet Royal Court, Linchen County, and Black Castle, is currently a land of war, and a thousand-strong army of our right battalion in the Black City is stationed there, but once the Scarlet Royal Court moves seriously, this army is simply not enough for those bastards who have blood cultivation to stuff their teeth, I mean, the Outer Five Pavilion should immediately send elite reinforcements!" β
Zhuang Huaishui sneered: "Who is rushing to help?" Those despicable humans who rushed to the aid of the Xuanyuan Empire? Elder Zhou has not forgotten that in the last battle of the Blue Lake, the Xuanyuan Empire's Eight Desolation Marquis Lin Huang set up a trick to almost wipe out our entire Zuo Battalion, and we haven't settled this account yet! β
"Humph!"
Elder Zhou flicked his sleeves and stopped talking.
"One time, another time."
Ding Heng smiled indifferently and said: "At that time, we were at war with the human race, and what the Eight Desolation Marquis Lin Huang did was understandable, and at this time, the Scarlet Royal Court took the initiative to make a move against Luoyan Mountain, and it is said that the 100,000-level army was mobilized, and the army held by the Eight Desolation Marquis may not be able to resist it, if Linchen County is destroyed at this time, what good will it do us?" The Scarlet Royal Court has successfully invaded the territory of the Terrans, and the next prey will be our Black City. β
"Does the Scarlet Court have such an appetite? Senior Brother Ding is too sensational! An elder beside Zhuang Huaishui raised his eyebrows.
"Sensational?"
Ding Heng said with a smile: "Senior Brother Lei still remembers the First World War eighteen years ago? A two-thousand-strong army of the Scarlet Royal Court fought all the way from the outer mountains, almost destroying the main hall of our Outer Five Pavilions, and in that battle, they dispatched dozens of Scarlet Elder-level powerhouses, in order to enter the Dark Temple to kill the Dark King, how big their appetite was, have you forgotten? β
"This ......"
Zhuang Huaishui was silent.
At this time, a white-clothed elder of the War Hall said in a deep voice: "I agree with Senior Brother Fengyuntai Ding, compared to the human race, what we should be more afraid of is the Scarlet Royal Court, the Eight Desolation Marquis of the Xuanyuan Empire just wants to suppress us in the area of the Immortal Mountain, and the Scarlet Royal Court wants to completely wipe us out, since His Royal Highness the Dark King has not come out of retreat, then our Outer Five Pavilion War Hall should take the initiative to fight!" β
"No, this matter must be asked to His Highness the Dark King!" Zhuang Huai Waterway.
And at this moment, a death knight in dark gold armor galloped in, and wisps of strong death aura were swirling around his body, and the murderous aura was surging.
"It's the guards of His Royal Highness the Dark King!" Ding Heng said: "Can you bring news?" β
"Yes."
The Death Knight arched his hand and said, "Elders, His Royal Highness the Dark King has decreed: You can fight!" β
"Good, go ahead."
"Yes!"
Ding Hengyi raised his eyebrows and said, "Now, who else has any objection to my Black City's intervention in the battle of Luoyan Mountain?" β
Suddenly, there was silence in the crowd.
"In that case, it's time to point out the troops to fight!"
The Elder of the War Hall said in a deep voice: "Each pavilion will send thirty percent of the disciples, led by the deacon elders to join the legion, and the War Hall will dispatch 20,000 elite legions, and they will set off in an hour!" β
"Yes, Elder!"
β¦β¦
"Ding!"
System prompt: Please note that the [Battle of Luoyan Mountain] version of the event is about to start, do you want to confirm your participation?
Of course!
"Confirm!"
"Ding!"
System Prompt: Congratulations on accepting the main quest [Battle of Luoyan Mountain] (SS Rank)!
Quest content: Go to Luoyan Mountain, assist your own forces to launch an attack, smash the invasion plan of the Scarlet Palace, and after completing the mission, you will be rewarded according to your combat contributions!
β¦β¦
Here it is, the main version of the system quest!
I can't help but laugh, I'm afraid that's what I need most at the moment! First, you can gain a lot of experience, and second, you can also get familiar with various characters in the camp, especially the battle with the Scarlet Court, which I am afraid will last for a long, long time.
But at this moment, there was a "ding" in the upper right corner, and the Fengyuntai trial began, with a countdown of 3 hours, which happened to conflict with the version of the task!
"Huh?"
Ding Heng was stunned for a moment, then turned around and asked me: "Little guy, the Fengyuntai trial is about to begin, how do you choose, whether to maintain your first position in Fengyuntai, or go to Luoyan Mountain to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions?" β
I didn't hesitate and said: "Master, I will go to Luoyan Mountain, Fengyuntai can be taken back at any time, but once the battle of Luoyan Mountain is missed, I don't know when it will be again, as the so-called man why not take Wu Hook and collect Guanshan Fifty Prefectures!" β
"Okay, if you are worthy of being my apprentice, then you will go out with the Outer Mountain Legion!"
"Hmm!"
β¦β¦
Half an hour later.
Everything is ready to stop, the equipment is renewed, a lot of life potions and energy potions have been bought, and in the package, the battle puppets Orange Night and White Bird are already full of blood, but Orange Night will definitely be able to help a lot, but what about White Bird...... It doesn't seem to have entered the battle state yet, maybe it will be killed again as soon as it is released, so forget it!
The in-game time and the real time are 4:1 ratio, one day in the real world, four days in the game, just after I prepared everything, there was a neat footstep on the wide mountain road, and an army from the outer mountains was pulling out from the war hall station on the mountainside, at the front was a group of undead heavy shield soldiers with heavy shields and long swords, and in the back row were neat dark archers, they were infected by the dark power day and night, their faces turned black, their eyes were solemn, they held war bows in their hands, and they were carrying quivers full of arrows behind them, one by one murderous.
Further back is the cavalry regiment of the outer mountains, there are about 5,000 people, all of them are undead bones and horses, the cavalry is draped in battle armor, holding war spears, swords, etc., and some are holding the black city battle flag, and finally there is the supply team, which is a cart of animal corpses, there are cattle and sheep, there are elk, etc., the undead army gains strength by devouring flesh and blood, and the strength of the soldiers of the outer mountain army is not as good as the left and right battalions of the inner three divisions, so this primitive way is still needed to gain strength.
However, the principle of the black city is very strong, after all, what they devour is only the corpse of animals, and those undead of the alien army are replaced by the corpses of human beings, after all, people are the spirits of all things, and they are the crystallization of the essence of heaven and earth, and the power contained in human corpses is definitely not comparable to ordinary animals.
β¦β¦
"Forward!"
A death knight in dark golden armor walked in the crowd with a sword, looked into the distance with a low gaze, and said: "The teleportation point to Luoyan Mountain is ten miles ahead, and we can directly teleport to the battlefield after leaving the city, at this time the frontline battlefield is already in chaos, everyone is on alert, and enter the battle state at any time!" β
"Yes, sir!"
In this way, I followed a group of NPCs out of the outer city wall, and roughly estimated that at least 20,000 troops were dispatched from the outer mountains this time, and in addition, there were about five hundred powerful disciples from the outer mountains who fought together, and I was one of them, but after arriving on the battlefield, most of them had to fight on their own.
Outside the city, in a dilapidated and barren grass, several elders in charge of the teleportation array were dressed in gray robes, and there were words in their mouths, and suddenly a white light curtain appeared in front of us, and the teleportation array had been opened, and on the other side of the light curtain, we suddenly saw a picture of a battle, and a large number of troops of the Scarlet Royal Court were attacking the defense line of the right battalion.
"The battle has begun!"
The Death Knight roared, "Rush, reinforcement camp!" β
"Yes, sir!"
A group of people rushed out in a hurry, and I also carried a double dagger and rushed along, I don't know why, but I just want to kill!
