Chapter 172: Attack on the Rhine Empire
Mo Xiaoye had also guessed that if he killed the Puppet King who occupied Skeletron's body now, maybe he could still gain something from the Puppet King's broken soul, but he would lose Skeletron and the army of skeletons in front of him. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info It's a bad deal.
And the puppet king made it clear that he was willing to be loyal to him, on the condition that he be given a chance to take revenge. This is acceptable to Mo Xiaoxie.
However, the puppet king was also mixed with the high-level plane, Mo Xiaoxie read some basic information about him from his soul at that time, and knew that he used to have terrifying strength at the demigod level, so no matter how you deal with him, you must be cautious, otherwise he will not know if he plots.
Like this one, this guy has resurged, and the ghost can guess what else he can do unexpectedly.
It would be good if there was the help of the puppet king, but the other party was mysterious and cunning, which really made Mo Xiaoye unable to put his mind at ease. Even if the other party is willing to sign the contract, it still cannot be taken lightly.
After Mo Xiaoxie thought about it for a while, he asked, "Do you really want revenge so much?" ”
"I have a feud with the Golden Horn Emperor, and I snatched the Helm of Domination to deal with him. And he imprisoned me in this plane in order to torture my soul, and wanted me to suffer forever, I can't let him go! The puppet king said angrily, his fists clenched.
Now Mo Xiaoye is quite cautious, he is worried that the puppet king may pretend to be pitiful, but he is secretly preparing some kind of attack. Therefore, Mo Xiaoye has prepared all kinds of countermeasures, and is also ready to kill the puppet king at any time.
He said calmly, "However, it has been ten thousand years, and perhaps your enemy is dead." ”
"Even if he's dead, I'm going to make sure. This is my only condition, as long as you are willing to agree, I am willing to sign a contract with you! ”
Mo Xiaoye thought for a moment, and then said, "Okay, I can promise you." However, you will need to sign a lifelong servant contract, not a trade contract. I can only verbally promise to help you, and if I am strong enough to kill your enemies, I will not mind killing an extra life at all, as I did when I attacked you. ”
The puppet king was quite angry when he heard this, "You went too far, you actually asked me to sign a master-servant contract!" "There is no need to ask who is the master and who is the servant.
"It's not a deal, you're not qualified to be my deal right now!" Mo Xiaoye said unceremoniously, he was quite jealous of this puppet king, after all, the other party's performance was really unexpected, so he had to be careful and vigilant. If the puppet king refuses to sign a master-servant contract, it would be a pity to kill him. After all, he didn't want to sit still.
The puppet king was indignant in his heart, he used to be a strong man in a lifetime, how could he be willing to bow to Mo Xiaoxie.
However, the other party's heart is ruthless, but he has already experienced it firsthand, and he has even found that the other party's soul attack is ready and can kill him at any time.
The battle between the Puppet King and Skeletron's soul just now left his soul scarred, and now it is completely vulnerable. And the other party is so vigilant, if you refuse the other party's conditions, the end is conceivable.
The puppet king didn't want to make a living, but it was hard to see if he didn't take revenge.
"Okay, I promise you!" After some mental struggle, the Puppet King finally agreed to Mo Xiaoxie's request.
The master-servant contract will completely exploit all the power of the servant side, and even the right to choose death will be lost, once the puppet king signs this contract, he will be completely under the control of Mo Xiaoxie.
But in this case, he has no choice at all.
Mo Xiaoxie personally made a high-level master-servant contract, which could not be forcibly terminated.
After the contract was signed, the puppet king completely surrendered to Mo Xiaoxie's feet.
Mo Xiaoxiao gave the puppet king a new name, Otis.
Since Odis has taken possession of Skeletron's body, the Skeleton Army will still be at his disposal.
Now that Mo Xiaoyi has obtained all the skeletons in disguise, it can be regarded as a happy ending.
Otis is the eldest brother of a demigod-level powerhouse, although Mo Xiaoye verbally promised to take revenge for him or help him, but this kind of thing is simply a fantasy to talk about now, and the distance is too far away.
Although Otis also had demigod-level strength before, when he entered this plane, his body was torn apart by the spatial turbulence, and most of his strength was directly lost, leaving only his soul.
And most of his soul was consumed in the process of attacking the seal and knocking the seal out of a crack.
After that, he split his soul again, part of it was absorbed by Mo Xiaoxie, and part of it hid in the puppet spirit, and the last part of him became weak again in the battle with Skeletron.
Therefore, today's Otis soul is extremely weak. His current soul can't even exert a small half of Skeletron's strength.
And Odis himself, because his soul is almost gone, so he can't get back his former strength, so he has to start all over again.
The matter of the Skeleton Legion has been basically resolved.
Although things didn't go as smoothly as Mo Xiaoyi expected, they were indeed solved. The only thing that Mo Xiaoxie is not satisfied with is that Otis is unable to bring out the full power of Skeletron.
Otis has been divided too much, and skills such as [Force] [Split Soul] and so on, he has basically completely lost, including most of his memories, and it is impossible to get them back, so this Otis is not very useful to Mo Xiaoxie at present.
Mo Xiaoye released all the remaining skeletons in the Storm Sanheen, a total of nearly 700,000 skeletons, and became his warriors.
Now, Mo Xiaoxie has a total of more than one million troops under his command, and his combat effectiveness is extraordinary.
He quickly brought all his forces together and set off on the Rhine Empire with great fanfare.
The monster strongholds on the side of the road will be easily swept away by the skeletons.
Otis will spare no effort to turn dead creatures into skeletons, so that Mo Xiaoxie's army will gradually grow, and by the way, he will grow from it. In order to strengthen himself and restore his strength, Otis worked hard.
A few days later, Mo Xiaoxie commanded his army of darkness and skeletons, and finally arrived at the border of the Rhine Empire.
Not surprisingly, the army of the Rhine Empire had long been in battle and firmly held the country's defense line.
It's noon and the sun is blazing.
Like a white flood, the skeleton army poured across the plains and began a massive assault on the border fortresses.
The Dark Army, on the other hand, is reinforced from the other side.
Despite the ferocity of the attacker's attack, it was repulsed.
The defenders were clearly well prepared and defended the skeleton army in a targeted manner. A large number of priests participated in the battle, and on the walls of the fortress, many magic cannons were converted into magic cannons that could heal the rain, and the cooperation of the defenders was quite tacit, plus the commanders were very wise, and they had the advantage with the defense of the fortress, so they finally repelled the attackers.
After three consecutive waves of attacks ended in failure, Mo Xiaoye chose to retreat five miles and prepared to find another way.
Obviously, it was a great loss for him to be forced on, and the enemy targeted the defense, which caused his troops to suffer great losses.
Nearly 100,000 skeletons died, and this loss was simply unprecedented.
If you continue to attack hard, the losses will be even greater.
The fortress was very well garrisoned, the walls were tens of meters high, and the defenders had many magical warships. According to the spies' report, behind the fortress, there are still more than a million troops stationed, and it is impossible to break through it.
At this point, it's already night.
Mo Xiaoxie's army was stationed five miles outside the fortress.
In general, in this case, the leading coach needs to discuss countermeasures with the generals. However, the generals under Mo Xiaoye are basically some puppets, and they don't have the ability to discuss with him.
In his legion, there is no discussion of battle plans or something, there is no such thing as a battle plan at all.
He needed neither a staff officer nor an adjutant, and even if there was a serious shortage of generals in his legion, the legion would still be able to sustain itself.
This is no ordinary army. Not ordinary in every way.
The enemy's defense is very strong, and it is not easy to capture the border fortress, Mo Xiaoye has already thought of a plan.
Shoot people first and shoot horses first, capture thieves and capture kings first, Mo Xiaoye decided to lurk in the fortress tonight to wreak havoc, or more simply, make a sneak attack on the enemy's officers, file their sharpness, in order to achieve the goal of breaking the enemy's heart.
He was about to go to the operation with several generals, but suddenly got information from the spies.
"Great King, an army of nearly four million humans has appeared in the west, heading straight for us!"
"Great King, an army of monsters has appeared in the east, it is the Apocalypse Crusade of the Night Demon King Simon, coming straight for us, the number is close to five million!"
Mo Xiaoye was surprised when he heard this, but he didn't expect the Night Demon King to come and get involved now.
"Hmph, do you want to wipe me out," Mo Xiaoxie showed a grim look on his face and asked sharply, "How far is the distance?" ”
"You can get here in half a day."
There is not much time, and Mo Xiaoye does not have many options, either retreat or face the battle.
However, judging from the strength of the troops alone, the consequences of the battle are very obvious. The number of enemies is too large, and they must have come prepared, unlike the last attack on Icewind Dale, where the enemy did not have time to deploy their troops.
So, is it time to retreat or to fight?
If he retreats, then the human army and the monster army will definitely chase after him, and he will lose the initiative. This is what Mo Xiaoxie does not want to see.
Of course, it was impossible to defeat those two armies, and Mo Xiaoye had to avoid the two enemy forces that were encircling them.
However, it is not too difficult to take down the border fortress in front of you. If you can take the fortress and then enter the hinterland of the Rhine Empire, you can continue to harvest a large number of lives, achieve the purpose of increasing your strength, and by the way, expand the number of troops. This kind of result is obviously what Mo Xiaoxie wants.
Regardless of the outcome, he decided to give it a try. I believe that as long as skeletons and dark creatures continue to be generated, it doesn't matter if the losses in this battle are large, after all, the recovery ability of this army is super strong.
The moon is dark and kills the night, and the wind is high and the sky is on fire.
Mo Xiaoye took the Hydra King, the Demon Dragon Sect Master, the Dark Evil Dragon, and Otis straight to the fortress.
All of them were disguised, intending to disguise themselves as soldiers to infiltrate the fortress and then carry out a sneak attack.
From afar, Mo Xiaoxie could see that the fortress was bright. The fortress is full of human soldiers, and all kinds of detection magic are emerging one after another, and it is difficult to sneak in quietly.
It's important to pay a visit before you go in.
He controlled the Hydra King to summon the Eye of the Apocalypse, and carefully looked at the situation inside the fortress from afar. Since the Eye of the Apocalypse has the ability to see through, the situation inside can be seen clearly.
There are a lot of enemies, and they're very dense. The strip-like corridor was crowded with human soldiers.
There are several resurrection temples in several locations inside, and the Pillars of Resurrection have been built there as a fortification facility.
After observing for a while, Mo Xiaoye found that there was a place where many guys wearing special armor for officers were gathered, and it seemed that they were gathering around for a meeting.
After a closer look, he thought it was the commanders of the defenders, and that there was a meeting going on.
If you sneak in and slaughter them all now, there will be no more suspense about victory.
Once you've decided on your goals, the next step is how to get into the stronghold.
It is almost impossible to infiltrate the fortress from this side without being detected.
Now there was a river of blood outside the fortress, full of corpses and broken blades, a dead place, and nothing alive could appear there.
I'm afraid it's not okay to get in from this front, but it's much easier from the other side.
There are tall mountains on both sides of the fortress, and it may be difficult for the skeleton army to climb over, but this is not a problem for them.
After coming to the other side of the fortress, Mo Xiaoye sneaked up on a few soldiers in the shadows, and then snatched their armor and equipped it on himself.
The neighborhood is lit up everywhere and a large number of human soldiers are stationed. A large number of people means chaos, and Mo Xiaoye and a few subordinates in disguise, in this case, approached the fortress smoothly.
The fortress was so large that it almost resembled a palace. Although the other side is very well defended, this side is not the same, the gates are all unobstructed, and you don't even need a pass to enter and exit.
After approaching the fortress, the first thing that catches your eye is a large arched passage, where you can see groups of human soldiers entering and exiting.
Mo Xiaoye asked Otis to pretend to be the captain and lead them into the fortress.
He didn't expect the operation to be unexpectedly smooth, and after successfully entering the fortress, they were unimpeded at all, and came directly to the meeting room where the human generals were meeting.
Here, their movement was somewhat hampered, but it didn't matter anymore. The generals are still inside, so just rush in now, and don't be afraid that they will run away.
"You belong to that unit, don't you know that this place is closed to traffic?" Several soldiers with spears blocked their way.
One of them looked at them with his observation eyes, wanting to see where they came from, but unexpectedly found that the five guys in front of him were all unknown creatures, unknown forces, and unknown titles......
"Hey, what's going on, are you ......?"
"Intruders, they're intruders!"
The scene immediately became noisy, and a large number of soldiers rushed towards this side.
It seems that the identity has been revealed, but there is nothing to be sorry for, after all, the target is not far away.
Mo Xiaoye gave an order to his subordinates: "Do it!" ”
The dark evil dragon immediately roared, its body was growing wildly at a visible speed, and the armor used for camouflage was blown up in the blink of an eye, but in a few seconds, an evil dragon more than fifty meters long appeared here.
"Good...... It's big, it's ...... What level is this dragon......"
"I don't need to ask, I heard that it was a sacred dragon that was reused by the king before, and it has a legendary level, and then it was turned into a dark creature by BaZura, it's terrifying......"
"What are the idiots still doing in a daze, the holy light is above, kill!"
Roar...... Boom Boom!
With a slight wave of the Dark Dragon's wings, a gust of wind blew away all the soldiers inside like leaves, which was not a level of combat at all.
Mo Xiaoye led his subordinates calmly and continued to move towards the conference room.
At this time, dozens of elite guards rushed out from nearby and killed them.
Mo Xiaoye instantly used his strength to bounce away all the attacks, and then raised his hand and pumped, and the souls of these guards were immediately drained by him.
Soon, Mo Xiaoxie and the Demon Dragon Sect Master, the Hydra King, and Otis came to the door of the conference room, and he blasted the closed door and guards away with a single swing, and then the scene inside appeared in front of him, the same as what he saw with the Eye of the Apocalypse, standing full of officers wearing special armor for generals.
The human officers were not too surprised when they saw Mo Xiaoxie's arrival, but calmly took out their weapons one after another, and prepared to fight while retreating.
Mo Xiaoye let the Dark Evil Dragon and the Demon Dragon Sect Master wreak havoc outside, and he walked into the conference room with the Hydra King and Otis himself.
"BaZula, you dare to come to this place too?" An officer said loudly.
Mo Xiaoxie said indifferently: "What don't you dare to come, this is just a trap at most, so what's the big deal." ”
When the human officers heard this, their faces changed suddenly.
"You dare to come knowing it's a trap?"
"I'm afraid your trap isn't clever enough."
"Hmph, look at us, it's not going to end well, enchantment preparation!"
A semicircular curtain of light suddenly opened around the conference room, and hundreds of three-star angels appeared inside.
The plastic surgery on the human side is simply gorgeous, and it is obvious that the trap has been dug and waiting for Mo Xiaoxie to jump.
But in the face of these, Mo Xiaoye was not moved at all. "Hmph, the mantis arm is a car." (To be continued.) )
