Chapter 524: Nail

Darkmoon Territory, Moonlight Fortress.

The Imperial Capital Army commanded the camp tent.

Looking at the iron-colored regent Obsidian on the seat, whether it was a general or a lord, he didn't dare to speak easily.

Last night, after capturing the undefended Moonlight Fortress, the new deputy commander of the coalition forces, Parrot, led the three elite legions of the imperial capital and the air force Feiyun Legion to chase down the defeated army and raid the town of Dico.

However, the result of this raid was completely unexpected by everyone, Parrott was besieged by more than 500,000 undead troops in Diko Town, the 1st Legion and the Feiyun Legion that pursued the enemy army were attacked by the "defeated army" and the undead, and the whole army was annihilated, and at dawn, the commander Parrott and the 2nd and 3rd Legions were less than 30,000 remnants desperately broke through the siege.

Parrott, deputy commander of the coalition forces and commander-in-chief of the raid, was seriously injured and fell into a coma.

The whereabouts of the First Legion Commander Joffa and the Deputy Legion Commander Carey are unknown.

The whereabouts of the commander of the Flying Cloud Legion, Rometi, are unknown.

The commander of the 2nd Corps, Freez, was killed, and the deputy commander, Toros, was killed.

The commander of the 3rd Corps, Neukel, was slightly wounded, and the deputy corps commander Longi was killed.

Stiller, Baroque, and Stebil retreated in defeat and withdrew, slightly injured.

The whereabouts of Pegsas, a Demon Emperor-level royal powerhouse, are unknown.

The general situation of "whereabouts unknown" is that there are many bad lucks and few auspicious ones, such a heavy loss! This is not the cannon fodder of the lords, but the real elite legion of the imperial capital! Not only those Demon Emperor-level generals, but even the Demon Emperor-level Pegasus have been damaged!

If the previous battle of Moonlight Fortress gave Obsidian a resounding slap in the face, then the Battle of Dico Town was a blow to the teeth. It was a fiasco that could not be prevaricated.

Originally, with the distance between Dicktown and the Moonlight Fortress, he sensed that the situation was not right and could directly reinforce it, but the enemy obviously took this into account and deliberately cut off the connection between the two places, and the soldiers who scouted or asked for help were all intercepted and killed without exception, until Parrot broke through and did not know it, at this time it was impossible to recover the defeat.

"Your Highness! The scouts have reported that the army of the undead has evacuated Dico. Just ......"

"Just what?" Obsidian's face was horribly gloomy.

"The armor and weapons left behind by the corpses were taken away by the enemy, and a considerable number of the corpses were missing. ”

"Hmph!" Obsidian slapped the table, and the table suddenly turned to powder, and everyone was silent.

"Your Highness. The undead army took away weapons and corpses, indicating that they also suffered a lot of losses in this ambush, and they needed to use corpses to replenish the source of troops, even if it was a Demon Emperor-level magician, with the help of a special altar, it would take a considerable amount of time to transform a large number of corpses into undead. I don't think it's time to send an army to hunt down the undead. Even if it can't be annihilated, it can restore morale. "It was Geraint who spoke, although he knew that Obsidian was angry at the moment, and it was not a good thing to be the first to speak, but the battle situation was changeable, and the opportunity was fleeting, so he couldn't care about it so much.

"The undead army's intentions to take away weapons and corpses are clear to everyone, so you don't need to emphasize it. Obsidian snorted coldly, "The Dark Moon Army is very cunning, if you pursue it now." Who can guarantee that Parot's mistakes won't be repeated?"

Geraint argued: "Your Highness, behind the town of Diko is the wilderness of Reis, and the terrain is not suitable for ambushes, so you can send an army to test the reality first, and then the army will prepare to attack behind." ”

Zhuo Che came out and spoke: "In the current situation, it is not advisable to rush forward, and the morale of our army cannot be hit again, even if it is only a small loss. The reason for Parrot's defeat was that he was ambushed by the Dark Moon under the light enemy, and according to Liliang, even if the other party has an army of undead. We still have the upper hand in terms of strength and combat power. I propose to take the town of Diko first, and then slowly restore its strength and morale, and send scouts to investigate and determine the enemy's movements, and then determine the specific next move. ..., Obsidian bowed slightly. Zhuo Che's proposal is relatively safe, especially the sentence "Our army still has the upper hand" won my heart.

"But ......"

"Alright! Geraint!" Geraint's words were interrupted before he could finish speaking, and a hint of coldness flashed in obsidian's slightly narrowed eyes, "At present, Parrot is seriously injured and does not wake up, so you will be back in the position of deputy commander, and the task now is to occupy Diko Town and try to calm the army, understand?"

Geraint didn't say any more, just gave a military salute: "Yes, Your Highness." ”

After the meeting, Geraint was ordered to reward the soldiers and calm their morale, and when he arrived at the quartermaster office, he happened to meet Zhuo Che, who was in charge of logistics.

"General, please wait a moment, the labor supplies will be ready in about an hour. ”

Geraint bowed slightly, and suddenly spoke: "Lord Zhuoche, I really don't agree with the suggestion you put forward today, at this time, blindly seeking stability will only give Dark Moon more breathing time, why don't we go together to advise His Highness Obsidian?"

Zhuo Che was taken aback, ordered to retreat left and right, and said, "General, some words may not be appropriate, but I still want to say them." When Samoreel's Serpent Legion was dispatched in the Red Shadow Territory, the general clearly disagreed with the Regent, and in the end, the Serpent Legion sent by the Regent was completely wiped out. When attacking the Moonlight Fortress in the ensuing period, our army encountered stubborn resistance and suffered heavy losses, and failed to perform as the Regent ordered, the real reason was that the Dark Moon showed far more strength than we expected, and even the Regent sent two large air legions, but still did not scoop down the fortress. This was not a mistake on the part of the general's command, but the regent felt that his face had been damaged, and he still removed the general from his position as deputy commander for poor command. Later, Parrot captured the undefended Moonlight Fortress, and when the Lord Regent ordered the pursuit of the defeated army of Darkmoon, the general spoke to stop it, but the Lord Regent did not listen, resulting in a crushing defeat. Now that the regent clearly had the intention of regrouping his army, the general again objected, offering to pursue the enemy...... If the general's judgment fails, and morale is even more depressed, if the general's strategy succeeds and wins a victory, then it is equivalent to slapping the regent in the face in front of everyone, the general...... Do you understand what I mean?"

Geraint stared at Zhuo Che for a moment, and finally sighed, "I understand what you mean. ”

"The general is not a dull person, and he should be able to guess the reason why His Royal Highness the Lord Regent clearly has a grudge against you, but he reappoints you as deputy commander at such a time. ”

This lost deputy commander is not a bad one, and the next battle with Dark Moon will be even harder, if he wins, His Highness Obsidian has the wisdom of people, and if he loses, he will be a dead ghost.

Geraint smiled wryly and shook his head, "I'm just a soldier, and I want to win the war, that's all. ”

"There is no independent military or political ......" Zhuo Che also sighed: "Forget it, it's me who talks a lot...... I sincerely hope that the general will think more about everything. Try to keep the useful body, the empire needs such a pillar as the general. ”

Geraint nodded solemnly: "I understand, I will keep these words in my heart, thank you Lord Zhuo Che for your guidance and friendship." ”

"I didn't say any nonsense today. It's just a matter of discussing the supply of supplies with the general. As he spoke, Droche and Geraint looked at each other and smiled.

Seeing Geraint leave the tent, a strange smile appeared on Zhuoche's face.

Although these words were not enough to have a divisive effect, they had effectively planted a nail in Geraint's heart, making him worry more, and in any case, the Imperial Capital Army would take a break for rectification. The purpose of the Dark Moon to delay time has been achieved.

Controlled by the master-servant contract and the toxin, Zhuo Che is now firmly tied to the ship of the Dark Moon, and for the sake of his life and power, he can only pull the old master of Obsidian off the horse. At present, it is only a small flame secretly instigated, and when the time comes, as the heaviest internal response, it will become a key figure in determining the entire war. ..., Chen Rui, who was far away in Bai Ling's territory, didn't know about Zhuo Che's small actions, due to Liliang, who devoured the soul of the demigods. Especially in the Winter Domain, there was still a trace of soul breath, so he was successfully recognized by the ruins, and entered the ruins with a group of warblers and Yanyan's lantern spirits.

The ruins are actually the castle of a ruined alchemical civilization. Due to the severe damage they had received during the war, combined with their age and lack of energy, most of the things had become unusable.

In the storage vault, Chen Rui found the heart lamps of the lantern spirits, there were thousands, but many of them had broken and lost their effectiveness.

According to the liliang level of the lamp spirits, the heart lamp is divided into three kinds from high to low: gold, silver, and iron, and the first word of the name is also gold, white, and black. Ginny's heart lamp is golden, and there are nearly 100 heart lamps that are also golden, and there are more than 30 of them that are kept to the end. It's going to be a powerful boost.

Although the immortal bodies of the lamp spirits are powerful, the resurrection is not endless. The number of times the Golden Lamp can be revived is four, the Silver Lamp can be revived three times, and the Iron Lamp can be revived twice. Heart lamps that exceed the number of resurrections will break and become ineffective unless repaired at a very high cost.

Chen Rui learned from the memories he gained that the heart lamp can not only be repaired. It can also be advanced through special materials and energy transformation, and each level of advancement is quite difficult, and the more advanced it is, the more so. If the advancement fails, then the level of the heart lamp will drop by one order, the gold lamp will fall to the silver lamp, the silver lamp will fall to the sticker lamp, and the iron lamp will directly break and fail if the advancement fails.

Generally speaking, the level of the golden heart lamp is already the limit, and there have been alchemists in the alchemy civilization who used secret recipes to transform the dark red heart lamp beyond the limit, but unfortunately the success rate is extremely low, and if it fails, it will be scrapped directly.

Chen Rui had experienced the illusion of the realm realm, and understood that these lamp spirits were female slaves who were completely obedient to his master, not only a powerful class on the battlefield, but also a stunner in the bed. However, the illusion is an illusion, and in reality, he doesn't dare to have crooked thoughts, even if he has the double cultivation skills of the dragon clan, in the face of a terrifying number of lamp spirit beauties, it is inevitable that the oil will run out. Besides, if you really get so many women back, I'm afraid that even Athena, who has always been generous, will scoop up a firewood knife and cut people.

Anyway, now Chen Rui is also the master, so there is no need to continue to hide it, scooping out a large number of spirit fruits in front of the lamp spirits, so many good things that are like top-level energy essences almost stunned those beautiful eyes, and the lamp spirits let out a surprise cheer in unison.

The more advanced the heart lamp revival, the more time and energy it takes, and with the help of Jin Sha, Chen Rui found Jin Ni's golden heart lamp and handed it to Jin Sha along with the spirit fruit.

After the excitement, the lantern spirits began to get busy in batches, some made energy blocks, some cleaned up the items in the ruins, some started to resurrect their partners, and some repaired equipment, which seemed to be in full swing.

Although these spirit fruits are far from enough to repair the entire castle, didn't the master say that as long as after a while, you can get this top-level energy essence fruit, sooner or later, all your companions will be resurrected, and the brand new castle will return to the ground!

There are many things in the ruins that interest Chen Rui, especially those tall constructed battle puppets, he has seen the combat effectiveness of this thing in the trial, it is simply a big killing weapon in war, but unfortunately it is basically damaged, and the lamp spirits can barely repair it, but it will take a long time.

Compared with the constructed war puppets, the lantern spirits are helpless against the damaged crystal behemoths and crystal monsters, but Chen Rui is not worried, because he has a powerful scientist wife, with the knowledge and level of Lola to make gold people, as long as he understands the principle, it should be easy to repair these things.

There are also many strange things in the ruins, including some potions, including black potions. It's a pity that the expiration date of the potion is not long, even the black potion can only last for a hundred years, these are no longer usable, or waste utilization, scoop it up for the old man to study. When Chen Rui first came to the Demon Realm, he memorized the name of an ancient alchemy great master inheritor, and he couldn't imagine that he would become a prophecy, but now it is worthy of his name. ..., in addition to the huge gain, Chen Rui was also aware of an important problem. Super systems are generally invincible, but there are occasional exceptions, except for this trial, when facing the demigod-level realm in Rainbow Valley, the super system is also unusable. In Chen Rui's situation, if it weren't for the four newly comprehended domains, the failure of the super system would be equal to all the combat effectiveness, which was inferior to ordinary powerhouses of the same level.

Now that Chen Rui has S-level spiritual power, he can sense more things more clearly, and he remembers that he can feel the super system in the trial, but he can't use skills, and then he wakes up from the illusion and can use the super system again. This should not be a problem of the supersystem itself, but of his own,

Chen Rui faintly woke up, all along, his understanding of the super system seems to have entered some kind of misunderstanding, this awakening means that he will change a new angle to understand more of the mystery of the super system.

It's a pity that the Dark Moon War is urgent now, and every second counts, so he doesn't have enough time to study slowly, and he must immediately continue to Jihua on the side of Bailing's territory.

Although the battle caused the main need cave in the Lebxu area to collapse a lot, but under the support of the dragon inscription, the main body of the need cave is still intact, and many of the surviving need workers have escaped.

Chen Rui thought carefully for a while, and ordered some of the lamp spirits to stay in the ruins to resurrect those complete heart lamps, while the rest of the lamp spirits disguised themselves and left the swamp and headed to the nearby town of Ronnie, where there was the Dark Demon's eyeliner. This eyeliner will take the lantern spirits to a certain stronghold of the dark demons in Bailing City to stand by.

As for the Medusa tribe, after witnessing the battle between Chen Rui and Jacob, they have completely surrendered to this powerful master, and Chen Rui's order to them is to be ready to go out at any time.

After arranging all this, Chen Rui opened the door of the starry sky, and returned to Bailing City in an instant, the time given to him by Sikari was ten days, and now the task has been completed ahead of schedule, I believe that it is time to unlock a certain hole card in Sikari.
