Chapter 50: Falling apart
Yan Ji's towering chest rose and fell, and her dark skin was covered with beads of sweat. The commander of the Mino regiment looked back worriedly at the pursuers in the rear, who had been in a tense state of battle since not long ago.
After the announcement of the deepening of the war in the five major spaces, Yan Ji already understood that there had been a major change in the dungeon. Although the two top teams of the Mino Group and the Corona Group have not lost a lot of manpower for the time being, their strategic advantage in the world of Eberon has become an extreme disadvantage.
The main quest given to them by Space is to eliminate the top team that has reached a cooperation contract with the dungeon and obtain a written contract between the two parties. Moreover, this main quest is geographically limited and must be completed in the Underworld. Once Shepbys' joint team is on the ground, Space will default to their main quest failure.
Under the siege of the dungeon, trying to complete this main quest is tantamount to a fool's dream. For the Mino, the failure of the main quest is inevitable, and the most important thing now is to escape from the underground world before the drow army in the dungeon has not blocked the underground rifts.
As long as they escape the underworld, they can also make up for the penalty of the main quest by finding other side quests. Otherwise, the failure penalty of the main quest is enough to make the entire team lose a lot, and the strength of each member is estimated to drop by one level.
The reincarnation is either advanced or retreated in the superstring space, and although the Mino group is a top team formed by the union of three major teams, there are also many enemies in the space. When the time comes, these hostile teams will inevitably take advantage of this opportunity to fall into the ground, and the entire team will be in danger of being destroyed.
After leaving the mushroom territory, the top team they had besieged suddenly launched a fierce attack. In fact, Shelpis was able to successfully break up the Mino and Corona groups, mainly because these two top teams did not anticipate this decisive assault.
The reason is also very simple, when the two top teams removed the encirclement of the mushroom territory, they did not make a big splash, they wanted to quietly disengage and avoid being entangled by the joint team. However, this assault finally made the two top teams realize that the joint team was not a helpless move to retreat into the territory of the mushrooms, but should exist as bait.
The dungeon's turn of events must have something to do with this top team, perhaps another team that unites with them, or some of them. The original advice of the team's think tank floated to the hearts of the two top team leaders, whether it was Yan Ji or the head of the Corona Regiment, and finally realized that the most serious consequences were in front of them, and the crisis of the destruction of the entire army was imminent.
After being dismantled by the joint team, the Corona group voluntarily disconnected from the Mino group. Obviously, they knew very well that the Mino Regiment at this time was the main target of the dungeon army, and if they walked together, they would be wiped out if they didn't do it. It's better to let the Minong group attract most of the plot Zhuoer, wait for the opportunity to return to the ground, and once again attack the changed main quest.
And the two heads and deputy heads of the Corona Regiment, Yan Ji and Lei Tao, did not expect the Corona Regiment to be in the same boat with them, they pinned their hopes on Gil. At this time, both of them were very fortunate that Gil still had a part of the Saldardo elves with them, guarding the entrance and exit of the underground crack.
It took more than half a day to get from the mushroom territory to the crack in the ground, and along the way, there was only one battle between the Mino group and the other top teams, and that was the decisive assault of the combined team. However, two hours after that decisive battle, they finally met a small squad of dungeon troops.
The dungeon force consisted of just over twenty drows, and it seemed that they were planning to build fortifications at a fork in the road. The battle was soon over, however, the drows also sent out magical messages, revealing the location of the Mino Regiment to the large forces of the dungeon.
Yan Ji and Lei Tao had also realized at this time that the dungeon should have a small teleportation array in this area, not just chasing from the rear. They feared that they would encounter greater and greater resistance until they were overrun by the large forces of the dungeon, and all of them were lost on their way.
The two of them were right, and when they encountered the third attack, they saw a young ghost-faced spider in the defense of the dungeon. The defending force also failed to stop the advance of the Mino group, and the baby ghost-faced spider was also killed.
However, at this time, the Saldardo elves who followed them were basically all left behind, either dying in the battle, or failing to keep up with the Mino group, and were scattered in the dark, and now there are only a dozen reincarnators of the Mino group left by Yan Ji's side.
Yan Ji and Lei Tao's hearts were full of bitterness, and they probably didn't have much time. This time it's a juvenile ghost-faced spider, so what about next time?
Most importantly, although the blocking force of this dungeon was defeated by them again, due to the broken back of the ghost-faced spider, the reincarnation of the Mino group failed to completely destroy the enemy, but instead added a small tail behind the buttocks.
"Damn, I'm going to kill them!" Lei Tao looked at the tracker behind him, his eyes breathing fire.
"Lei Tao, calm down. We don't have time to dwell on them! Yan Ji's pretty face sank, and she looked into the distance with a heavy heart.
"Not good!" The beautiful head of the Mino group suddenly changed his face, and he was shocked when he looked at the information in the soul seal.
"Jill!" Lei Tao's eyes widened, and he gasped and roared, "They broke away from the team!" ”
"Can't blame him!" Yan Ji closed her eyes in pain, and after a long while, she finally opened her eyes again and said calmly, "Even if there is no him, we have to continue to break through, and the Minong group cannot be destroyed here!" ”
A quarter of an hour later, Yan Ji and the others finally came to the place where Jill and Xu Mo had fought. The messy fortifications relieved everyone in the Mino.
"Judging by the traces of the battle, it's Jill and them!" Lei Tao said in a deep voice.
"Jill, what the hell is going on with you?" Yan Ji's face was cloudy, and she muttered to herself, "Judging from the map, this place is already very close to the crack in the ground. Let's go, in an hour or so, we'll be able to see the exit of the underworld! ”
Yan Ji and his party leapt rapidly in the dark, and after coming out of the canyon passage just now, the road in front of them gradually expanded. As we get closer to the cracks in the ground, the surrounding terrain and space slowly enlarge. This gave the reincarnators of the Minong Regiment more hope, and after a while, even if they encountered the pursuers, they would no longer have to be afraid.
The cracks in the ground were kilometers long, and even with the power of Panassins, they could not seal off such a wide area. However, just at the corner of the pit in front of Yan Ji and the others, all the reincarnators were stunned in place, and their faces turned pale.
In front of them, a large force of Panasin stood quietly in place. This huge cavern is full of drow elves. The surrounding rock walls were covered with magic lanterns, enveloping the entire cavern in a hazy glow of fire.
At the front of the elven team were two adult ghost-faced spiders and a golden-armored rhinoceros, and next to the three war-class creatures, there were many other legendary creatures, and they even saw a small number of evil eyes.
Behind these legendary creatures, more than a hundred two-headed hounds glittered with green and ferocious eyes. Then there were hundreds of elven guards, and under rough visual measurements, the number was no less than five hundred, which was already more than half of the strength of all those who went out to conquer Zhuoer.
At the back of a huge ghost-faced spider, a goddess priest with a pretty face covered in frost was staring at Yan Ji with a gloomy gaze. The anger in his eyes seemed to be about to choose someone to devour, swallowing Yan Ji with the belt bones.
"Wendini Lustina!" Yan Ji swallowed bitterly and looked away from the resentful gaze of the dungeon archon.
"The reincarnators of the mushroom territory are also there!" Lei Tao said with a grim face, "They should have used the teleportation array to go around in front of us!" ”
Wendini turned her head to look at Shepis and the others beside her, and the high-ranking assassin who rescued her in the dungeon was not among them. This made her feel an inexplicable disappointment in her heart, and at the same time secretly relieved. At least, these surface humans of Breeland haven't seen her once embarrassed appearance.
A few hours ago, the dungeon's army encountered Shepis and the others, and the tokens brought by Princess Leah made Wendini confirm that they were Brieland's messenger team. Wendini wanted to send them back to the dungeon first, but Shepis insisted on seeing the enemy destroyed, so she had to take them with her.
When she heard that Shepis and the others had killed more than 80 people in the battle, Wendini's anger towards Yan Ji was even more uncontrollable. The alternation of rights in the dungeon is just a personal grudge for Wendini, and she can understand Yan Ji's behavior.
However, if the Saldardo family attacks all the surface forces, even with the intention of destroying them all, it is a public vendetta to attack them. Unable to understand or forgive, it strengthened the belief that all the high-ranking priests of the dungeon would completely destroy the Saldardo family. They want to use the bloody facts to consolidate the cooperation strategy between the dungeon and the surface forces, and eliminate similar hidden dangers in the future.
With this in mind, Wendini and the other dungeon priests did not hesitate to launch a large-scale teleportation magic spell, and finally moved the Drow army to the final blockade line of the underground rift before the Mino group. Of course, this choice also one-sidedly weakened the defenses of the other lines, giving the Corona regiment a precious respite.
The cold light in Wendini's eyes grew stronger and stronger, and she slowly raised her right hand and waved it down vigorously......
"Run, scatter, and concentrate all the remaining war contributions on the team's auxiliary transferees, so that they can return to space first!" Looking at the flood of legendary creatures and drow elves, Yan Ji closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and commanded calmly in the team channel.
Glancing at the disintegrating team, Yan Ji rushed towards the road she came from without looking back, quickly disappearing into the darkness......
