Chapter 65 The Dream of Hattings
Richard remembered the construction of the turbidity, and the loyal palace steward told Richard to go to the Dusk Land anyway, so Richard said: "I'll go to the Desperate Battlefield first to see what great things Hattings has done, they had to be effective, if they don't work well, then I may directly teach this guy a deep enough lesson." ”
"I'll leave it to you first. Richard patted Aceris on the shoulder, picked up the knife case, and walked away.
Moments later, Richard walked out of the portal at the place of the rising sun, and as soon as he exited the portal, he lifted straight into the air, and then a few flickeres disappeared.
The several Sanctuaries guarding the portal were taken aback, they had never seen a mage with such a strong spatial ability, and they could teleport so easily in the legion fortress of the Forbidden Sky Realm, and at this time, the teleporter authentication information fell into their hands, and on it was a prominent name, Richard Akmund.
At this moment, the army of Hattings was leaving a legion fortress that had been razed to the ground, moving on to its next target.
The army, which consisted entirely of warriors covered in black armor, marched with neat and mechanical steps toward the next legion fortress of the Daxoldas, each of whom had a sanctuary level of strength, and numbered as many as eight thousand.
The most terrifying thing is not just the numbers, but also the fact that it is an army, an army with strict discipline enough to compete with the brood creation.
When such a large number of strong people turn into an army, there is also an invincible force.
In the center of the army, there is a huge and hideous earth dragon, this earth dragon is several times larger than the ordinary earth dragon, every step will make a big earthquake tremble, on the back of the earth dragon actually built a miniature magic tower, Hattings is controlling the direction of the entire army in the magic tower.
Commanding such a large army, and having just captured a legion fortress, his martial arts are comparable to Philip the Great, but at this moment, Hattings' face is not very good-looking.
The battle at the last legion fortress was not very smooth, and although the Daxoldas were not superior in numbers, they were cunning, full of tricks, and they were all fearless to death, and with the help of the garrison advantage of the legion fortress, they inflicted huge losses on the army of Hattings.
Hattings wiped out the two legends in the fortress, more than 500 warriors at the level of the Holy Domain, and thousands of cannon fodder below the Holy Domain, but the price paid was as high as 2,000 people.
During the war, the Hatins was inconvenient to command, and the weakness of the single class was exposed, and it was fully exploited by the Daxodas.
It was this war that made Hattings deeply realize that the victory or defeat of a war is not like research, it is simply a comparison of the digital forces of the two sides, that the arms and command have an important role, and that war is an art.
What Haitings is distressed about is that if this continues, his troops will consume three or four more fortresses at most, and they will be lost, without this group of strong men, although the mother emperor still has enough warrior reserves, but there are not enough strong souls to stir up.
To be able to defeat two-thirds of the Legion Fortress of the Daxoldas is an immortal feat, but Hattings' ambitions go far beyond that, his dream is to level the entire Dusk Lands and establish a forward base in the Daxoldas plane.
According to his research, it is likely that the plane of Daxoldas contains a part of the ultimate mystery of life, and if this mystery is solved, Hattings is at least hopeful, and maybe he can also obtain the right to eternal life.
However, if he only ran rampant on the battlefield of the Desperate Realm, it was far from enough to support Hattings's dream, and the support from Fort Solomon would probably become a noose around his neck by that time.
Hattings was very afraid of the scholars and mages of Fort Solomon, and he himself had devoted his life to research, and naturally knew how crazy and unreasonable those who were truly obsessed with knowledge and research could become.
Unbeknownst to Hatins, at the back of his line, one of the warriors suddenly fell limply and then vanished.
Moments later, in a cave in the wilderness, Richard left the warrior behind and began to examine him carefully.
In his real vision, every secret of the warrior is revealed, and in his body, Richard sees many familiar structures, which are very different from the common human body structure, but the brood is opened, based on the best functional structure in the human form.
"I didn't expect that I was also a brood warrior, and the level was even higher than mine. Richard's expression was awe-inspiring, he didn't know where Hattings got a brood, but if he was to be completely hostile to Hattings, then the manufacturing of high-level units in Richard's Chapter 1473, and the manufacturing ability and ontology combat power were in conflict, so in the eyes of the level powerhouse, the defensive ability of the brood body was much lower than that of the reaper mothership.
Richard continued to inspect the warrior, of course, the traces of the soul infused in it could not hide from him, and then Richard now occupied the soul of a human powerhouse in the body of this warrior.
On this soul, there are layers of spells that force them to obey certain orders, and they are locked in this shell, which is quite a clever soul spell, but it makes Richard see the flaw.
The creations of the true brood do not need souls at all, they are implanted with specific codes in their bodies, and will only obey the orders of certain spawns, so the warriors of the brood do not have souls, and they do not need souls at all, even if they are elite units.
The only thing that really has a soul is a special unit like the Crimson Sect Tiger.
Imbuing the brood warriors with treated souls and then manipulating them was nothing more than anything else in Richard's eyes, and combined with Hattings' clumsy and primitive way of commanding the entire army, it was strange that Richard no longer knew that there was something wrong with his army.
Richard himself is a master at manipulating the brood warriors, and he gives instructions to specific brood warriors out of his consciousness to manipulate them into completing predetermined tactical ideas, without the need for heralds, bugles, and flags.
However, Hattings still relies on these rather primitive means to command, and Richard does not have any non-brood warriors in his army, which means that Hastings does not have the ability to command these brood warriors at the soul level.
At this point, Richard had roughly deduced the truth that Hattings must have encountered a brood under some circumstances, or just a hive used by the brood to store soldiers, and then he used soul magic to seal the collected souls of human powerhouses in the bodies of brood warriors, thus gaining the ability to control these brood warriors.
However, the combat power of this kind of brood warriors under the control of zhì is very limited, and the inability to accept the command of the soul has removed one of their biggest advantages, but Richard has not had the ability to control a brood.
Now the only advantage of the Hattings is the number, and the numerical advantage of this group of puppet armies is too great, and bulldozing a few more legion fortresses is not a problem.
Now Richard has seen the problem of Hattings, his army is single, the command is dull, many of the special skills unique to the brood warriors are not wielded at all, and the actual combat power is greatly reduced, far from being as tough as it seems on the surface.
If it weren't for the war with the Reapers, if Richard had brought the same number of Night Elves, as well as a mixed army of frost warriors, arrow beasts, and insect warriors, although the average level was a full two levels lower, he would have been able to completely defeat the army of Hattings, which had obvious shortcomings.
Richard silently estimated that with Darkins' current strength, it would be cold to defeat at most three more Daxoldas, but the Daxoldas people would definitely not watch him uproot the legion fortresses one by one, and they would definitely show their hole cards.
In the past, numerical superiority had always been on the side of the Daxodas, and Richard suddenly thought of the manta rays he had seen on the battlefield of the Peerless Realm, and his heart couldn't help but sink slightly.
For now, Hattings still has a huge role to play in the Holy Alliance, and Richard is not interested in the problematic brood behind him, so Richard does not do anything to him, and instead returns to the place where the sun rises.
It's just that on the way, he met a more unlucky legendary black mage of Daxodas, and Richard cut off his head with a knife, and then skillfully harvested the materials.
On this trip, Richard also got an intermediate sacrifice, which was used as the travel fee.
When Richard returned to the floating island, less than ten minutes before the regular quarterly meeting of the House of Lords, Richard took the Night Elf Knight and headed to the House of Lords and went straight to the conference hall.
The House of Lords is basically a decoration, and occasionally important meetings are held, and this quarterly meeting is quite important, and all the major families will send representatives to attend, but the heads of the family will basically not appear, they are not so free, and they will come to participate in this kind of meeting that cannot decide anything.
So Richard's appearance suddenly made the entire House of Lords boil, and people talked about it, not understanding why Richard suddenly appeared, but as Richard, he suddenly appeared here at the critical juncture of the war with the Reaper, and there must be something important.
A middle-aged nobleman who was still impassioned on the podium just now gave up the podium with interest, and Richard was not polite, and directly walked up to the podium with his Night Elf guards, looking around, and suddenly the entire venue fell silent.
In the silence, Richard's cold voice began to sound: "Not long ago, a viscount named Ziggy checked our cargo fleet in Akmund, and in the process of inspection, most of the cargo was missing. ”
It turned out that this was the case, and many well-informed nobles immediately understood.
Due to its sensitivity, this news is not very widely disseminated, but many people in the upper class know that the people who get the news are old fritters who are long in politics, and they know that this is a test, a test of Akmund's strength. ,
