The Dark Realm has collapsed!
Even if such nonsense were to be spoken, the person who heard it would only dismiss it as a boring drunken rambling, let alone think about the feasibility of it. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Throughout the ages, since the Crane plane has jumped to a medium-sized plane, the entire land has been divided into two completely different worlds, the surface and the underground, except for the endless ocean.
The surface is a world of light.
There is a warm sunshine, a bright full moon, a clear change of seasons, and vast tracts of land suitable for farming......
And thousands of feet underground, it's not a dead place with no life. On the contrary, in the deep and dim natural tunnels and artificially dug tunnels and corridors, although silent, there are countless special creatures that embrace the darkness silently.
It is their presence that brings vitality to this silent region of the Dark Regions.
However, on this very day, the day that the Zerg demigod brazenly broke into the Mind Snatcher Holy Land, the entire dark region collapsed.
In fact, seriously speaking, what really collapsed was only the bottom of the dark region. This is the dark lair that the Mind Flayer has been operating for tens of thousands of years, and countless psionic magic circles hidden in the rock formations and stone walls are densely packed and almost overturn the entire bottom layer.
This was also the plan that the Mind Flayer Mastermind had specially arranged for his possible enemies.
When the Deep Cavern is no longer a barrier, and when the Mind Flayer army is unable to stop the enemy, the Mastermind can brazenly detonate the entire psionic circle, causing the bottom layer of the Dark Region to collapse, and then trigger a larger-scale stratum change. Therefore, it was only the nearly 100-mile area centered on the Mind Flayer City that collapsed, and the middle and upper layers of the dark region only caused large-scale landslides and dislocations due to huge stratigraphic changes.
When the rumbling collapse finally stopped, the entire dark region was unrecognizable and devastated. Countless tunnels, tunnels, tunnels, caves, caves, rifts...... have changed dramatically. The collapse of the collapse, the closure of the closure, the countless Zerg crowded on the bottom of the ground were completely buried thousands of feet underground.
Most of them died from drastic stratigraphic changes, and even if they did, it would be a fool's dream to dig through the thick and hard rock, sand, and earth from thousands of feet of ground. Becoming the nutrients that give birth to new creatures in the underworld is their only end!
The great changes in the underworld have of course also affected the surface.
Directly above the City of the Mind Flayer is the endless grassland of the Taranta Plains, so after the end of the underground changes, a whole pit stretches for thousands of miles appears in the Mulan grassland of the Taranta Plains. Countless breaches, huge pits, shattered earth...... All human beings who witnessed this scene could not help but bow down to this terrifying power from nature!
While the human kingdom and major powers on the surface are talking about it, trying to send people to dive underground to find the truth, the cemetery is busy with disaster relief at this time.
Not to save others, but to save yourself!
The Mind Snatcher Mastermind's move ended up together, and it was indeed ruthless enough. But it blew itself up underground without saying hello, which obviously affected the main city of the cemetery, the Dark City, which was hidden in the shallow layer of the dark region.
The violent force of stratum changes is transmitted from the deep layers to the superficial layers, and the destructive power is no longer as great as before. But even so, countless tunnels collapsed, countless tunnels were squeezed together, and countless caves collapsed...... The old roads were almost completely destroyed, and new ones were born among the countless rifts and ruins, and the Undercity was not spared.
Most of the heavy stone pillars supporting the huge cavern space have broken and collapsed, and the collapsed roof wall has also brought great damage to many cemetery magic buildings, all roads have disappeared, and the Undercity has almost cut off all contact with the outside world. Even many of the portals closed by drastic stratigraphic changes.
If there is a great god who can draw the area around the Undercity and compare it with the previous one, he will be surprised to find that the entire area where the Undercity is located has sunk by 3 meters, and it has smoothed out by 16 meters to the northwest.
It is precisely because of such a drastic change in location that the teleportation array and portal originally erected here cannot be used in the short term, and only after recalculating the new spatial coordinates of the Undercity can everything be restored one after another.
This is the case in the Undercity guarded by the Magic Tower, the location is relatively high, and the cemetery stronghold that is more tested is even more lost. A huge shockwave shook all the space, and many of the cemetery's creatures were crushed into meat sauce by the suddenly closed stone walls. Before they could set off, most of the underground expeditionary force was wiped out in an instant, but fortunately, the most damaged was the 1.5 million ghoul army that had been so hard to teleport.
Due to the cut off of the road, the specific casualty statistics were difficult to clear out for a while, and Li Xun could only use the soul system to drink Ling Zena to organize self-rescue on the spot. Most of the graveyard creatures buried in the gravel and rock formations will not survive, but some of the high-ranking units may survive. Therefore, salvaging them in time can alleviate the losses caused by this "accident".
When the disaster relief was over, Li Xun immediately convened the senior management of the cemetery to hold a discussion meeting on the current situation.
This "natural disaster" in the underground world is so terrifying that the tens of millions of Zerg who poured into the underground must have all been reimbursed. But the question is, did the Zerg demigod also die underground? If it were to die, the entire plane would immediately change dramatically.
From now on, the Necropolis will no longer have any allies!
In the past, the major forces in the Klein Continent were able to accept and tolerate the existence of the Necropolis purely because of the threat of the Angela Zerg. After all, at that time, the mainland could no longer withstand an internal split. But what if the Zerg suddenly disappears? I'm afraid that the first one to turn the other cheek on the Necropolis is the Mage Guild, which is currently cooperating with a "happy" one.
The Mage's Guild may tolerate the Council of the Dead, but it will never tolerate the Necropolis.
Even if the Council of the Dead harms mortals in the world, after all, they all belong to the ranks of spellcasters, and it is impossible to have an essential opposition to the mages from the root. Moreover, most of the scourge of the Council of the Undead is those neutral countries that refuse the large-scale intervention of the Mage Guild, as long as the Mage Guild re-absorbs the core of the Council of the Dead in the future, it will be tantamount to an expansion of the Mage Guild in disguise!
It was precisely because he saw the significance of the existence of the Angela Zerg that the cemetery led by Li Xun was relieved to boldly show his strength.
The Angela Zerg want to exterminate all life in the plane and turn Crane into a giant lair of the Zerg. And the Grand Cemetery has the same ambitions. It's just that what Li Xun wants is a beautiful Klein that is intact and maintains biodiversity, not a dying plane full of devastation and withering creatures.
If you want to create an undead plane, the Abyss World has objects to choose from. The most distinctive thing about a main plane from the lower plane is the diversity of species and the abundance of resources. Therefore, transforming a main plane into an undead plane is simply a foolish act of killing chickens and taking eggs!
Therefore, if the Necropolis wants to suck the blood of the enemy and grow, it must have a strong enough opponent. Li Xun knew very well that the Necropolis must grow into a behemoth that they only dared to curry favor with and did not dare to disobey before all the indigenous creatures in the Klein plane united to strangle themselves.
Otherwise, the Arcane Empire is the best example of the Great Necropolis.
Therefore, analysis came and went, and the cemetery executives waited for a consensus.
The Necropolis needs Angela Zerg!
At least until it really grows, the Necropolis needs Angela Zerg!
So at this time, the one who cares most about the fate of the Zerg is the cemetery that has been fighting fiercely with the Zerg.
According to the unanimous assessment of many cemetery staff, the probability of the Zerg demigod being killed underground in this major incident is zero. This undoubtedly made Li Xun breathe a long sigh of relief.
If the Mind Flayer Mastermind arranged this pit killing plan is aimed at ordinary legends, there may be a certain possibility of success, but if it is used against a demigod, there is almost no possibility of killing the other party. The biggest possibility now is that the Zerg demigod is trapped in an area underground, where he is struggling to find a possible path to the surface.
Once this tone is set, the next thing that needs to be discussed is the work that needs to be done in the later part of the necropolis.
Many radical cemetery heroes have clamored to take advantage of the gap in the strength of the Zerg demigods in the Elven Continent to attack the worm hive and destroy the foundation of the Zerg's existence. However, many more dragon lichs were vehemently opposed, and some of them even advocated that the Necropolis should send a representative to find the Zerg demigod and discuss the matter of the union between the two sides.
From this, the essential attributes of these dragon lichs can also be seen. For them, there is never any particular position or principle to adhere to, everything depends on interests. As long as the other party's price is high enough, even if you shake hands on the battlefield, there will be no psychological burden.
Li Xun couldn't help but shake his head and sigh at this.
These dragon lich are good as staff officers and staff, but if they want to become the commander of one side, they are too short-sighted.
Their nature of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages often leads them to see only the little benefits in the near future, but ignore some long-term benefits. Like Angela! What is the ultimate goal of the other party? It's to exterminate the entire plane and turn it into a new Zerg lair.
At this point, can Angela Zerg and Necropolis find common ground?
Impossible, impossible!
This also eliminates the possibility of cooperation between the Necropolis and the Angela Zerg.
Of course, more dragon lich fantasizes about making peace with the Zerg, waiting until they join forces to defeat the local natives before getting rid of them from behind.
But is there any chance that this kind of knife licking operation will succeed?
The Angela Zerg is a terrifying race that ravaged the multiverse tens of thousands of years ago! If you give them a chance, they can grow into a behemoth faster than the Great Graveyard. In the past, when there were no demigods, relying on a war brood that could lay cubs would make the elven kingdom miserable.
Fortunately, the legendary raid organized by the Elven Kingdom came at the right time, although they didn't have time to prevent the arrival of the Zerg demigods, but they just took out the war brood. Otherwise, the combination of the Zerg demigods and the War Brood, the cemetery would not want to find a half-price from them, and Li Xun could only lead the cemetery out of this hopeless Klein plane.
