Chapter 201: Breaking through the Sea of Scorpions
When Xue Wendao led three hundred of his men to the Chinese army's big tent, the situation here was already quite bad.
Every legion commander will have a garrison, and of course Spencer, the commander of the country's Third Legion, will also have it, which is a garrison of a thousand elite elven warriors.
Because the third legion of the country is one of the three most elite legions in the elf race, and because the main members are blood elves, the blood elves have a small stove, whether it is personnel, equipment, and training, they are all of the highest standards.
The Legion Commander Garrison of the Third Legion of the State is the elite of the elite, and their strength is not much more than that of the Royal Praetorian Guard, or even more, after all, the members of the Royal Praetorian Guard rarely have the opportunity to fight directly on the battlefield after joining the Royal Praetorian Guard. However, the Third Army of the country is an elite army that will participate in almost every expedition and foreign war.
The elite of such an elite naturally has its own name, which is Blood Vitex.
It is the favorite flower of the blood elf clan, and it is regarded as a representative of the race, and in the territory of the blood elves, when the flowers are in full bloom in spring, you can see the blood thorn flowers all over the mountains blooming a sea of blood-colored flowers.
can use the blood wattle as the number, which shows how strong the strength and honor of the commander of the national legion are.
But now this garrison, with great strength and supreme honor, has suffered heavy losses. There were now less than four hundred of the 1,000-strong troops, all of them wounded, and the rest had all died from the onslaught of the self-detonating golems and the sand devouring scorpions.
The gun shoots the first bird. When Lin Xiao and Ellie commanded the sneak attack, they launched an attack on the very center of the tripartite camp, in fact, these two girls didn't know what blood vitex flowers were at all, they just poured more firepower after they found that the resistance here was the most tenacious.
How many people to kill was not in Lin Xiao and Ellie's consideration at all, their fundamental purpose was to toss these invaders hard.
As a result, the Blood Thorn Flower's troops were charged by almost two thousand self-detonating puppets, and then half of the Sand Devouring Scorpions besieged it, Ellie had a large number of insect traps scattered on the position defended by the Blood Thorn Flower, so the surrounding Sand Devouring Scorpions attacked here like crazy.
These sand devouring scorpions were caught by Sha Yunyue in the Haisha Desert for research, and there were only a dozen of them at that time, and there were more than 300 eggs in a dormant state.
After Tang Dou officially activated the source of life space Avalon, he released these demonic creatures into the desert south of Avalon.
As a result, even Tang Dou didn't expect that with no natural enemies at all, those more than three hundred eggs actually multiplied to a jaw-dropping number within a year.
Fortunately, the sand devouring scorpion is quite sensitive to the environment, they will only survive in the desert environment, and will not leave the southern desert, and Sha Yunyue has researched a drug specifically for these vicious creatures, whether it is tempted or driven away is completely arbitrary. This didn't make Tang Dou's half-tone cause trouble.
After discovering that the Sand Devouring Scorpion almost became a disaster, it also gave Tang Dou a wake-up call, and he made a new plan for all the various demon beasts or beasts that he had collected and prepared to be cultivated as biological weapons, so as not to get a backlash against him.
The Sand Devouring Scorpions that grew in Avalon are more ferocious than those in the Sea Sand Desert, and have even reached the level of low-level demon beasts, although their vitality is still very fragile, even an ordinary person can kill a few with weapons, but their flexibility, reflexes, speed, endurance, and toxins have all been multiplied and strengthened.
Although an ordinary person could kill a few Sand Devouring Scorpions with a weapon, when the number of Sand Devouring Scorpions exceeded twenty or more, even a silver-level soul cultivator had to be careful and careful.
Because even if the skin is punctured a little, the strengthened toxin of the sand devouring scorpion will instantly paralyze people's whole body.
Yes, the sand devouring scorpion's toxin is not directly lethal, their toxin is a powerful neuroparalyzing toxin, and it also has a soul-disturbing effect.
A silver-level elven warrior will be completely incapacitated if he is stabbed twice, and a gold-level elven warrior will be hit up to five times.
If it weren't for the fact that the vitality and defense of these vicious creatures were too fragile, almost to the point of dying at the slightest touch, Tang Dou wouldn't have dared to take advantage of these guys.
Lin Xiao and Ellie directly released three groups of sand devouring scorpions in each camp.
Sand scorpions live in groups, although they are scorpions, they have the same social nature as ants, and each of these special sea sand disasters is numbered in the tens of thousands.
Each battalion has at least three groups of sand devouring scorpions, and tens of thousands of sand devouring scorpions crawl out of the sand layer below the ground, frantically attacking everything.
The soldiers of the Blood Thorn Flower are not not elite, they have been taken care of by the self-detonation puppets at the beginning, more than 2,000 self-detonation puppets have completely disrupted their formation, and other troops may have been scattered long ago, but the soldiers of the Blood Thorn Flower resisted the attack of the self-detonation puppets alive, and blocked the attack at the cost of losing 378 people.
If that's all there is to it, then that's it. But it was the Sand Devouring Scorpion that followed.
The reason why Tang Dou chose the Sand Devouring Scorpion as a biological weapon was the brutal habits of these vicious little creatures, this kind of guy who would never die once he went berserk. Only the kind of medicine rattan with the breath of the Scorpion Emperor (female scorpion, the sand devouring scorpion has ant habits) developed by Sha Yunyue can be restrained, and if it encounters a scorpion-trapping medicine mixed with the breath of desert ants that are regarded as mortal enemies by the sand devouring scorpion, it will be quite terrifying.
In just three or five rounds of charge, the Sand Devouring Scorpion broke through the first two layers of defense of the Blood Vitex Warriors, and the more than two hundred elite warriors were directly put down before they even understood what was going on.
The potent nerve paralysis toxin turned these elven warriors into immobile stiff targets on the ground, and then the sand devouring scorpions swarmed up, gnawing the elven warriors who had been brought down by the toxin to bones.
The elven warriors who were brought down by the toxin did not die, and even because of some of the strange abilities of the neurotoxin, they would not die even if they were gnawed off half of their bodies by the sand devouring scorpion.
Even some elven warriors do not completely lose consciousness until their entire body is gnawed down to a single head.
Such a terrifying characteristic is the reason why the Sand Devouring Scorpion has become one of the three evils in the Haisha Desert, and it is also the reason why everyone in the Nine Screams Continent talks about the color change.
Even more feared than desert ants, which are also one of the three pests, the sand devouring scorpion is even more fearful, because the toxins of desert ants are lethal and it does not take long to lose consciousness after being bitten. However, the toxin of the sand devouring scorpion will make people watch their real skin gnaw into a pile of white bones in a sober state.
Xue Wenwen and his three hundred subordinates relied on the help of the scorpion repellent rattan, and finally killed the Blood Thorn defense line that other elven warriors could not approach.
At this time, there were only three hundred and twenty elite elven warriors left in the Blood Thorn Flower, and more than forty of them had completely lost their combat effectiveness - they had been poisoned by the scorpion, and if it weren't for the desperate rescue of their comrades, they would have been gnawed into white bones.
However, compared to their own species in the Sea Sand Desert, the sand devouring scorpion that grew up in Avalon has another characteristic of its toxicity, that is, if there is no antidote, its toxicity is permanent.
If there is no antidote, the more than forty poisoned elven warriors can only be a stiff living dead all the time, in this state, they can't even work properly in their digestive system, they can't eat, they can't drink, how long can they last?
So unless Tang Dou asked someone to send an antidote, these more than 40 people would also die.
Blood Thorn is not Blood Thorn, even if the losses are so heavy, their defense still does not waver in the slightest, no matter how many Sand Devouring Scorpions kill, they will defend their defense line to the death.
However, when they saw Xue Wendao coming over with three hundred men, there was also a fluctuation. After all, no one else can kill them in front of them - Lin Xiao focused on taking care of this place, and let two more ethnic groups come over, and now the entire kilometer around the Chinese army's tent is simply surrounded by the sand devouring scorpion.
In this case, Xue Wendao and the others, who would not be actively attacked by the Sand Devouring Scorpion, were naturally quite attention-grabbing.
"You ...... How did it come about? "Spencer, the commander of the Third Legion, has already led his men to charge three times, but all of them have to finally retreat.
Those sand devouring scorpions rushed up in pieces, no matter how thorough the defense was, there was a time when it was lost - the tail needles of these vicious little creatures would directly break through the soul power protection, unless it was a soul power protection above the gold level, otherwise even a silver ninth-level good hand would be pricked as long as they didn't pay attention.
With just one stitch, even the strongest warrior will move and deform in the pain like a flame, and then more flaws will be revealed.
So now the rest of the Blood Thorn Flowers can still stand and fight, and they are basically gold-level masters.
However, only half of the three hundred subordinates forced by Xue Wendao were gold-level, and the rest were silver ninth-level. Theoretically, when these three hundred plus one person broke through the encirclement that was more than twenty meters wide, how could they fall by a third - in fact, when he saw the snow and asked them to rush over, Spencer felt that it would be good if the other party could rush in a third.
But the fact is that Xue asked these three hundred plus one person rushed in completely, and no one was lost.
No, not only were there no losses, in fact they weren't even attacked much by the Sand Devouring Scorpion. Although they take the initiative to attack the Sand Devouring Scorpion and will fight back, the desire to fight back is not particularly strong, and without numerical superiority and successive attacks, the weak defense and the defects of the vitality of these vicious little creatures who can die at the slightest touch are exposed.
So Xue asked, these three hundred plus one small troops just killed the defense line of Blood Thorn Flower.
What is even more obvious is that after these three hundred plus one person came to the defensive line, the sand devouring scorpions at the position of the defensive line they were standing directly retreated, and they seemed to have no interest in this area anymore, and continued to launch frantic attacks towards those positions where there were no Royal Praetorian Guard soldiers.
Even if you put someone with an IQ just above the table, you have to see the problem.
In the face of Spencer's question, Xue asked that the poker face did not change at all: "I don't know, these scorpions don't seem to take the initiative to attack me and my people, there may be some reason, but I don't know now!" ”
Spencer was confused by Snow's answer, but that's where Snow's clever approach came in, he was a man of few words, disdainful of explaining anything to outsiders, and only smiled and said a few more words when facing his cronies. So Snow asked, and Spencer really couldn't find anything wrong with such an answer.
Of course, Spencer didn't think that there was something on Xue Wendao's three hundred plus body, because from common sense, if these sand devouring scorpions were made by Xue Wendao, he would not have been able to run here to save people. This kind of action, which directly exposes the difference, does not look like what a conspirator would do.
And even if you don't trust Yuki, asked. Spencer also had to admit that the elven prince's character was problematic, so he didn't doubt it too much.
"Kill it, and then let people set fire to it! Otherwise, you will be besieged here sooner or later! "Snow asks questions and speaks simply and directly.
In fact, with preparation, no matter how many Sand Devouring Scorpions there are, it is impossible to pose much of a threat to an army, and a group of soul cultivators can take out these guys with fragile vitality by unleashing attacks.
Especially those fire-based soul cultivators who are good at long-range and large-scale attacks, as long as a large area of fire burns over, no matter how many sand devouring scorpions there are, they will all die.
The reason why no one has set fire to it now is because the commander of the regiment is still surrounded by the Chinese army's big tent.
What Snow asked and what Spencer didn't know was that the Third Army was the focus of attention, and the other two battalions had already passed the most dangerous state and began to fight back.
Only Spencer was taken care of by Lin Xiao, so he was unlucky enough to be surrounded in the sea of scorpions.
At this time, Spencer would not ask Xue Dao to be vindictive, and when he heard what the other party said, he nodded in response.
"My people are outside, those scorpions won't take the initiative to attack my people, your people are inside!" Snow asked again.
In the end, it is Sha Yunyue's eldest brother, and this kind of thing is simply family inheritance, Xue asked is better than Sha Yunyue, but it is also limited.
But the more he did it, the less anyone would suspect him. After all, Xue asked if he could do this, and he did this, there was no benefit at all.
Spencer immediately told the Bloodthorn men to shrink their defenses, while the three hundred Royal Praetorian Guards took over the entire line of defense, and then quickly retracted inward.
In the end, the more than 600 people turned into a long fusiform structure and broke through towards the sea of scorpions.
Outside the sea of scorpions, several high-ranking generals have already organized a new defense line, and just wait for Spencer and them to break through, and those fire soul cultivators who have been waiting for a long time will take action.
Without the Sand Devourer's active attack, Snow asked, and they could easily break through. Then hundreds of fire-based soul cultivators started at the same time, and the sea of fire that rose to the sky burned towards those sand devouring scorpions.
