Chapter 72 The Danger of the Black Rose
Richard is now at the level of a megaship in parsing the Reaper's rules.
At this point, some of the rules of the mother ship can be reversed, even if Richard has never seen the Reaper's mother ship at all, and when Richard parses all the rules that can be analyzed, most of the Reapers' will have no secrets about Richard, and he will have a good chance of disintegrating the Reaper mothership in a few hits, so as to prevent it from possible self-detonation.
Only by dismantling the mother ship can it be possible to obtain the reactivation technology and control center.
This requires controlling the progress of the extermination, not too fast and not too slow, as it is easy to alert the reapers, and they may directly detonate the mother ship when the war is hopeless.
Then Asa and Goshawk parted ways with Richard and headed straight for the reapers, whom Richard had chosen for them.
The war in Faro is still going on, and the wounds on the plane are deepening step by step, although with the addition of the goshawk Asa, the speed of eliminating the Reapersis is much faster, but most of the Reaper detachments are still wandering around, cleaning up the remaining humans on the Faro continent, as well as a life that can be processed.
In this way, more than half a month has passed.
Norland's time had only passed for a little more than a day, but it was an extremely long twenty-four hours for the knights guarding the castle of the Black Rose.
They had to withstand a siege of nearly ten times more enemies in all directions, and it seemed that the army of the Holy Tree Dynasty would never be able to finish killing, and many of the outer castle fortifications were captured and recaptured, and so on, leaving enough corpses on both sides in these battlefield focuses.
Ellie's talent in using soldiers was fully demonstrated at this moment, and her limited strength was used by her superbly, perhaps she did not have Richard's ability to control every detail of the battlefield, but she was still too creative in using soldiers, and at critical moments, she could always have a stroke of genius to return the situation that was about to collapse.
Although this offensive and defensive battle around the Black Rose Castle did not last long, Akmund's resilience and madness were undoubtedly displayed.
The Akmunds didn't know if they would be able to hold out until the next hour, but the generals on the Sacred Tree side were even more nervous, and they wanted to do their best to capture the Black Rose Castle and then seal the teleportation channel, which would be equivalent to trapping Richard in his personal plane and taking over
What follows, of course, is negotiation, and war is only a means of gaining benefits.
It is pointless to trap Richard, and it is impossible to really trap a super strong person in a certain secondary plane, as long as the Black Rose Castle is defeated and forced Richard to make concessions in terms of interests, the Holy Tree Dynasty will achieve its strategic goal, as for killing Richard, in the case of none of the super strong people of the Radiant Church, it is no longer an option at all.
They know that there is not much time left.
The war between Akmund and the Reaper could come to an end at any time, and whether it was won or lost, the remnants of Akmund's forces in Faro would fall back to Norland, and the defenses of the Black Rose Castle would be strengthened again.
Therefore, starting on the third day, the generals personally went into battle one by one to supervise the battle, commanding the army under their command to advance meter by meter, tearing down all the obstacles in front of them, and this so-called impregnable castle finally had the opportunity to show the power of the original design, even under such a clear wall and strong field tactics, it also caused great trouble to the Holy Tree Dynasty.
However, the advance of the dynasty's army seems to be slow, but in fact it is extremely solid, making full use of the advantage of troops, leaving no chance for Ellie at all.
The offensive and defensive battle of the Black Rose Castle has reached the most critical moment.
At this moment, Richard was returning to Bluewater Oasis City at the scheduled time, and a copy of the latest battle report was already on Richard's desk.
Richard picked up the battle report and glanced at it a few times, then pulled up the magic map of the Asan Territory and looked at it, on the map, the latest situation of the two sides had been marked, the army of the Holy Tree Dynasty surrounded the Black Rose Castle from three sides, leaving only the seaward side, but there were also warships of the Holy Tree Dynasty on the sea to form a blockade line.
"It's a lot of fun. A sneer appeared on Richard's lips, and he immediately gave an order in his consciousness.
A moment later, Goshawk and Asa, who were originally returning to Bluewater Oasis City, changed direction and pounced on the other Reaper detachment.
At this moment, the goshawk has long since lost its easy-going and uninhibited appearance in front of Richard, but is sharp, like a sheathed sword, and its momentum is not much weaker than Asa.
On the flying messenger, the goshawk said, "This Richard really doesn't think of himself as an outsider and uses us to death." ”
Asa snorted and said, "If you do such a trivial matter, you will complain, can't you do something for the mountains and the sea, you should know, we must ensure the suppression of the reapers, Richard let us fight one more time, is he going to do something himself." ”
Goshawk smiled and said, "He's going to surprise those clowns of the Holy Tree Dynasty." ”
At this moment, Richard walked out of his study and walked towards the dimensional portal at the same pace.
At this moment, a huge shadow suddenly swept through the sky, and the star chrysalis slowly flew in, and then unloaded hundreds of frost warriors and their new mounts from their bodies.
That's right, the more than three meters tall, giant-like Frost Warriors have now become cavalry, and the weight that can carry them is naturally not an ordinary mount, but a new unit created by the brood by synthesizing the life information of many dragons, the Tyrannosaurus rex.
The appearance of the steel-armored tyrannosaurus was similar to that of the Earth Dragon, but this five-meter-tall behemoth was much taller than the ordinary Earth Dragon, their huge mouth was large enough to bite off a war horse at once, and the layers of scale armor covering the surface of the body actually shone with metallic light.
The scales on these tyrannosaurs turned out to be all steel, and in terms of defensive power, they even surpassed the full-body plate armor of the heavily armored knights, and the steel-armored tyrannosaurus itself had the strength of level sixteen, and with the same level sixteen frost warriors, it could already fight with the top knights.
In addition to these Frost Tyrannosaurus Knights, there are also a large number of Night Elves gathering, that is, as many as five hundred Night Elf archers and five hundred druids.
These were originally Richard's troops used to consume the Reapers, and in the original plan, they would have been consumed even if they were not all killed, but the arrival of Asa and the Goshawk greatly reduced the pressure on Richard, and the brood warriors were saved while maintaining a constant speed.
In the war with the Reapers, they are cannon fodder and meat shields to stand in front of them when necessary, but compared to the private armies of the other lords of Norland, these are terrifying slaughtering machines.
Before stepping into the portal, Richard hesitated for a moment, then issued another summon, and thirty mantis-like insect-like combat units suddenly flew up from the other side of the city, quickly flew in front of Richard and fell, and then discharged a tight formation.
These three-meter-tall giant combat units are all metal, with a smooth surface that can be used as mirrors, and they are incredibly fast and powerful, and a pair of fully extended blades that can reach up to five meters can slash the Reaper arachnid warrior in two.
This is a new, optimally designed class developed by the Brood to deal with the Reapers, called Blade Hunter.
The Blade Hunter has a large pattern on his body, but this is not a decoration, but a development of the brood, similar to the natural magic pattern of the magic pattern construction, although this natural magic pattern can only play the role of the equivalent of the first-order construction, but after the strength, speed, and body strength are increased by 20%, the combat power of this optimized combat unit soars to the Sanctuary level.
As Richard became more and more aware of the rules of metal and other substances, the beetles produced by the brood became stronger and lighter, and the sturdy beetles could support larger combat unit designs.
These blade hunters are Richard's secret troops, and they have never been used, but now that Richard has made up his mind, the map of the Black Rose Castle appears in front of him, and looking at the troops of the Holy Tree Dynasty that are densely surrounded by them, Richard secretly sneered in his heart.
Since all these people are here, don't go back to any of them.
At this moment, on the portal of the floating island, a legend and dozens of Sanctuary powerhouses were walking out of the special territory and walking towards the teleportation circle leading to the Black Rose Castle.
And inside the Floating Island Castle, the Star Sage is receiving a special group of guests.
Led by the natural disaster, behind her, in addition to the ghouls and blood axes, there are also three big men with different momentums, all of whom are at the level of the Heavenly Sacred Domain, everyone here is placed in the dark world, and they are all terrifying figures, but in this room, they are all cautious and cautious, and they dare not talk nonsense at all.
Not only because they sat opposite the super strong Star Sage Span, but also because this was Richard's lair, the core territory of Akmund.
On this floating island, there are many sanctuaries entering and exiting from the portal every day, even more than the guards of Akmund, and some legendary powerhouses can be seen from time to time, and there are many cases where several legends get together to chat.
Only when they come to the floating island of Akmund, the natural disaster and others will suddenly have the illusion that the legend is very worthless.
In the corner of the room, there was Wells, who was chained, his limbs completely deformed, wrapped around his body, with a deep fear on his face, but unable to utter a word.
The Star Sage glanced at Wells and said, "Yes, the consciousness and soul are still intact, and they also have the ability to think and speak, well, the body sensations are still there, very good, this is considered a live capture, and the evaluation of this mission is perfect." ”
As he spoke, the Star Sage took out a piece of magic paper, wrote down the proof of the completion of the task and the evaluation level on it, signed his name, and then handed it to the Scourge, with this certificate, he could go to the Akmund treasury to withdraw the bounty.
The natural disaster didn't even look at it, so he handed the mission certificate worth five million to the blood axe.
She looked at the Star Sage and asked seriously: "Our core personnel of the natural disaster have arrived, this is our sincerity, so is it possible to join Akmund and become a follower of His Highness Richard." ”
