Chapter 32: The Siege (4)
At first, Black Dragon was unimpressed by Jones's arrival.
What can a little vampire do?
Soon, however, they found out they were wrong.
Only one Jones may not matter, Jones plus Rich, more precisely, it should be Jones plus Richie under the undead legion, the problem comes.
"If it's just to destroy a fragile magic array, I have a better, faster way. ”
"What's the solution?"
"Resonance. Dwarves use explosives when mining, and if they are not used correctly, they will collapse. And the most terrible thing in the collapse is resonance. It's a question of frequency. After thinking about it, Jones explained, "Anyway, it was a disaster. And our goal now is to create disaster. We're going to create an earthquake and then we're going to send it out. That's probably what it means. If it is indeed vulnerable, I believe that the earthquake has the potential to speed up our process of breaking it. And in the process of trying it, it will also speed up the progress of our project. ”
This is an area that Richie has not set foot in, he was stunned for a moment, but finally nodded: "Okay, brother, if you think this is the right thing to do, then do as you say." ”
"I need your help. ”
"For example?"
"The door of space, and, chickens. ”
Soon, with the help of the lichs, a huge spatial door was opened.
A large group of dwarves, with countless goblins, appeared on the periphery of the top of the dragon.
"What are they doing? Get a bunch of goblins?"
"Does this mean that they don't have any more undead, and that the undead here are already their limit? I think it must be like this, otherwise why let the goblins play? You see the little green guys are shaking their legs from the cold. They are more fragile than humans. ”
"I think so. The army of the undead here is already their limit, as soon as an angel or demon appears, they will collapse immediately. And we will be saved. ”
None of the talking black dragons can afford to look down on goblins.
Soon, however, they fall into the nightmare of being dominated by goblins.
Under Jones' command, the mad goblin army began to dig desperately to dig holes.
Speaking of which, goblins really don't have any advantages, they are cannon fodder created by demons. To have morale without morale, to have strength without strength, to have IQ without IQ, to be 100% rabble.
However, when it comes to digging holes, they are definitely good at it. Not only can you dig up humans, but you can also dig up the armies of the undead who never sleep, and even if you're not particularly particular about it, they can dig up dwarves who are famous for their mining - they live in the tunnels in the first place.
Richie took advantage of the Space Gate to bring in a large number of broilers from the south. So, the goblins went into the tunnel and went straight to stay.
There are 100,000 goblins, and they dig day and night under the top of the dragon, sleep when they are tired, eat when they are hungry, and continue to dig when they wake up.
The truckload of earth that was sent out of the pit by the undead was the result of their work. The black dragon who originally looked down on them was terrified.
Who would have thought that goblins could also play a part in the great cause of exterminating the Black Dragons, or more accurately, step on the Black Dragons at a time when they are in danger?
Anyway, at least the black dragons themselves didn't think about it. Before that, they hadn't even looked at a goblin with a straight eye.
The three powerful races: the Lich, the Black Dragon, and the Golden Dragon, watched as a group of notoriously weak goblins bit their chicken legs and work frantically, pushing the tide of battle bit by bite.
"According to their progress, the fastest time is to shorten the year to 10 months. It couldn't be any faster. Ten months from time to time, reinforcements from heaven and hell are long overdue. Even I guess they're already massing their forces now. "At first, the black dragon was able to comfort itself, until the goblins exited the tunnel and the dwarves unleashed their explosives.
With a roar, billowing smoke rose from the tunnel. The entire top of the dragon shook, and the magic array they had hoped for flickered desperately.
The first time it didn't work out, but it was scary enough. The black dragons on the top of the dragon felt like they were going crazy.
"No, we can't wait like this! We have to save ourselves! We have to find a way!"
What did they come up with?
Not...... I don't know how to describe it.
They stood on the top of the dragon and shouted to Jones: "Hello, eldest son of the Lich King! Are you willing to submit to your brother? You are the eldest son, and although you are an adopted son, you are also the firstborn, and you have the same right of inheritance! Why should your younger brother inherit the throne of the Lich King? We think that you are the most suitable person to inherit the throne of the Lich King! The Black Dragons are your solid backing!"
Sowing discord is so obvious, and to be honest, it's the first time I've seen Jones. He didn't even want to pay attention to them. Not only did it ignore it, but it also accelerated the construction period.
The desperate black dragons ran to the golden dragon again, shouting: "The black dragon and the golden dragon are in the same lineage, we are all a race that originated from the dragon god and was blessed by the dragon god. We are brothers, and we should share weal and woe! The undead are deceiving you with their imaginary dreams of justice! Their purpose is to use your hands to destroy your brothers, and then annex Celtics in one fell swoop! Wake up! Our brothers! Let us defeat the abominable undead together!"
The Golden Dragon Grand Elder replied to him, "When you ambushed the Lich King in the Valley of the Dragon, did you ever think that he was your brother's guest, and your brother had an unshirkable responsibility for his safety?"
After receiving the reply, the Black Dragon Clan seemed to be excited. They began to throw out all sorts of arguments, such as that they were forced to attack the Golden Dragons in order to prevent the Lich King Gray from being fooled into him. However, after two days of talking, they only proved one thing, and that was that the Golden Dragon Clan no longer intended to share a boat with them.
So, the black dragons set their sights on Richie again.
"Honorable Lich King, we deeply regret what happened to your father, but it must be said that it is not what we want to see. We ......"
Before he finished speaking, Rich replied directly: "What are you doing that you don't want to see?
The roar of rage echoed through the Valley of the Dragons, and the whole world fell silent. Everyone stared blankly at Richie, who was standing on the cliff with his fists clenched.
After a while, the black dragon's dry cough came from the top of the dragon: "We...... We are bewitched by heaven and hell. Yes, it was they who told us that we could win the war as long as we killed your father. ”
"At first, we didn't believe it, but we were ready to devote ourselves to the cause of the unification of the Celtic continent. We are willing to accept the arrangements of justice. But you know, they've planted spies among us......"
"Oh no, it's not spies, it's them who threaten us. You know, we're a weak race, and we've been trying to survive in this world all the time. I think you should understand this feeling of trying to survive. We admit that we are cowardly, which is why we allow the threat of heaven and hell to succeed. But we have now repented, and we are willing to be your allies against our common enemy......"
Not only Richie was stunned by this rhetoric, but also by the golden dragons, by the lichs, and by the demons of hell.
......
"These black dragons...... Do they know what they're talking about?"
"That's it, still counting on us to save him?"
"It's shameless than we are, really. For the first time as a demon, I'm resigned to shamelessness. ”
"The devil can't stand it anymore. Why don't you say that we grabbed their hands to kill Gray, or that it was our people who attacked Gray?"
"If the little lich is willing to believe it, I guess they will...... They no longer know what dignity and glory are. ”
......
Rich replied, "Shut your mouths, I don't want to hear any more of your arguments." By saying this, you are insulting not only yourselves, but also my father. He was actually ambushed by such a group of shameless lizards. To preserve his reputation, I will only want to erase you from this world even more!"
Did the Black Dragons stop?
Of course not.
In this long countdown, there was hardly anything they could do. The only way to do that is to keep trying.
After trying to surrender, they began to intimidate again. Heaven and Hell, who had coerced them to kill Gray one moment ago, had become their staunch allies in the blink of an eye. Just now, he said that he was a weak race that could not withstand the threat, but in the blink of an eye, he became a proud and powerful race with a glorious history.
If it weren't for the fact that their power was here, they might still want to boast that their power is stronger than heaven and hell.
In short, all kinds of tricks are played one after another, and the preface does not match the afterword, and he does not hesitate to slap himself in the face.
Any project, especially a large-scale project, will inevitably have accidents. Whenever there is an accident, a large group of black dragons will frantically heckle on the top of the dragon, as if the siege strategy is about to fail.
And every time this happens, Jones will silently detonate a wave of explosives and shake them off.
Will they stop because of this?
No, they won't. They will immediately turn to begging for mercy and try to surrender.
Why do they always have so much inner drama and even say it? Of course, it may also be because they don't even have a relationship with a unified person who speaks. The Black Dragon Great Elder had long since stopped talking, leaving a group of guys who didn't know what to call and tossing wildly there.
Of course, no matter what happens, the work does not stop, not even a standstill. The countdown continues.
......
In the abyss, a demon commented, "Do you know how it feels like for me to listen to them? While the reality is that they're going to be finished, I think they'll probably be done before the little lich digs into the top of the dragon. We have encountered countless races, created countless races, and destroyed countless races. But inside, there has never been a race that is both powerful and ugly at the same time. Their wickedness is completely unaesthetically pleasing and even disgusting to me, as a demon. ”
"Before, I was actually hesitant to refuse to support the Black Dragons, but now they have dispelled my concerns. If we choose to be their allies, I will worry that our aesthetic and yearning for evil will not be eroded and polluted. Compared to their appearance of evil, I'm even beginning to think that the old fellows in heaven are quite cute, despite how hypocritical their justice is. ”
"Black Dragon, challenging the bottom line of our aesthetics. ”
This speech received unanimous applause from all the demons.
......
Time passed bit by bit, and in the blink of an eye, two months passed.
The work continues, and the top of the dragon is already in jeopardy.
The undead clan is still riveting their efforts to slaughter the entire Black Dragon Clan.
The top of the dragon is still covered in snow and ice. There is no season here, no matter what month it is, it is extremely cold. However, reinforcements, the only hope for the Black Dragon Clan, have finally appeared.
However, there is only one - Jeremi.
Yes, it was the Angel Legion Captain who led the Angel Legion to persecute Gray in Salted Fish Harbor. He was once a prisoner of war of the undead.
When he appeared alone at the top of the dragon, the black dragons let out the loudest cheers ever, and came to an abrupt end when they learned that he was alone.
Coming to Rich and Jones, Jeremy saluted, and then said, "Dear two princes, I have come to mediate at the command of your Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit hopes that the undead and the black dragon will be able to put an end to this brutal war. While the Black Dragon's ambush of the Lich King violated normal rules of warfare, you also ambushed their expeditionary force, causing massive casualties. In a way, their casualties are greater than yours. If there is hatred between you, then it should be resolved at this time. We sincerely hope that you will live together in peace. ”
"What if I refuse?" Rich asked bluntly.
"If you refuse, then we may call in an army of angels who are strong enough to destroy the undead to stop them. If a war breaks out, it will be a disaster on the continent of Celts. That's not what we want to see. In fact, the angelic legions have been assembled. That's exactly what we've been doing for the past few months. The black dragon didn't know about it. ”
As he spoke, Jeremy hung in mid-air, quietly watching Richie and Jones.
Silence, long silence.
Just as Jones took a step forward and was about to speak, Richie, who was standing next to him, quietly grabbed his wrist and said, "I refuse." ”
