Chapter 102: Destroying the City and the Country
Roar!
When the war drums sounded, the already bustling and noisy underworld suddenly became like a volcano that had been ignited. In the ghost towns built on the plains and mountains , battle flags were raised one after another, like a forest of flags.
A huge ghost, who was a hundred feet tall and as big as a mountain, walked out of the ghost town carrying a battle flag. The moment the flag was raised, evil ghosts filled with murderous spirits, riding on ferocious underworld beasts and holding swords, gathered under the battle flag like rivers flowing into the sea.
At this moment, tens of thousands of ghosts were gathering in every ghost town. The terrifying negative energy gushed out from the sky above the ghost town, condensed into dark clouds, and spread in all directions. Soon, dark clouds stretching for hundreds of miles formed above this dark place.
"Your Majesty, why did you suddenly decide to attack King Hunxie?"
Above the dark clouds that stretched for hundreds of miles, the Dark Phoenix was circling higher up. The Lord of Youhuang, wearing silver armor, looked down at the ghost army that was gathering in the dark clouds. Nearby, there were dozens of ghost generals standing by, and the one who asked the question was a black-armored ghost general with horns on his head. He knelt on one knee with a respectful look.
"King Hunxie has something in his hand that I need!"
Dong Huang's voice was cold and her eyes were indifferent, but she still gave an explanation, because the person who was kneeling and asking her was her right-hand man. Even if he set up his own business and established a ghost country, he still chose to follow her.
"May I ask what the king needs?"
"The celestial jade!"
"I will go and reorganize the military equipment now!"
The ghost general stopped asking questions. The precious jade was the foundation of the Ghost King's life. If he wanted to seize it, he had to destroy his country, break his city, or kill him. All other methods were useless.
It is naturally impossible to persuade the king to stop the war. The king's will is everything. The reason I asked is just because I am confused as to why the king chose King Hunxie as his target when there are obviously better options.
Many other ghost generals also went forward one by one to reorganize the evil ghosts gathered under the flags. In less than half an hour, a ghost army of hundreds of thousands of people stood above the dark clouds, mighty and orderly.
Looking at the heavily armed and neatly flagged ghost army in front of him, Donghuang was satisfied in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.
In fact, given the vastness of the ghost country she ruled, and the fact that all ghosts could be soldiers, she could easily raise millions of ghost soldiers. But the military appearance would never be as strict as it was now.
She is very strict in selecting ghost soldiers. Any evil ghost whose mind is eroded by resentful evil spirits and who is easily driven crazy is not worthy of being a ghost soldier. Even in the city, such ghosts will be suppressed first. Once they go crazy, they will be killed on the spot.
Therefore, after selecting the best from the best and going through numerous rounds of selection, this ghost army, which is far less in number than the ghost armies of other ghost countries, can easily defeat ten with one on the front battlefield. Even if facing a ghost army that is ten or even twenty times its number, it can still win on the battlefield.
"Go!"
The cold voice of the Lord of Youhuang Kingdom echoed throughout the dark clouds for a hundred miles. Accompanied by the clanging of phoenixes, hundreds of thousands of ghost troops set out.
The Youhuang Ghost Kingdom will not be empty just because its leader leaves with an army, because there is still a very powerful force left in it, enough to deal with the attacks .
A horrific disaster thus befell the Ghost King Hunxie, which was completely unexpected. It had never imagined that it would be attacked by the Youhuang Ghost Kingdom.
The Ghost King Hunxie only remembered that he was in his own palace at that time, drinking the fine wine brewed by the elusive souls of the living, and admiring the enchanting ghost girl twisting her body.
Then
A terrifying sword light fell from the sky, almost splitting the ghost town where it was located into two. Even the continuous palaces that it had built with the help of countless ghosts and a lot of effort were destroyed.
"Dark Glory!"
The angry Ghost King instantly revealed his terrifying true form that was hundreds of feet tall, standing close to the mountains and overlooking the ghost town. The frightened ghosts were instantly inspired to fight because of the power revealed by the Ghost King, and their brutal nature was also triggered.
Countless frenzied ghosts swarmed and soared into the sky, turning into a ghost tide that went against the current and rushed towards the ghost army standing above the dark clouds. The result was naturally obvious, the incomplete ghosts fell like rain.
This is an asymmetric war, it can't even be called a war, but a massacre!
Dong Huang listened to the wailing and roaring of thousands of ghosts before they died, and his sanity was eroded. Even though they did not retreat a single step from their roars until they died, his eyes remained calm and indifferent.
When she decided to attack King Hunxie, the outcome of the war had already been determined. The only thing she needed to pay attention to was how much price she would have to pay for it and how much benefit she could gain after the war.
Due to its location, the Ghost Kingdom ruled by King Hunxie is difficult to annex even if it is conquered, so it is not very cost-effective to wage a war against it, and the benefits are limited.
However, that was only for the ghost generals under her command. For Donghuang, as long as they could obtain the Hun Tian Jade, this war, no matter how heavy the price, would be acceptable.
She established the Ghost Kingdom in order to take herself to the next level!
"Dark Glory!"
Seeing the ghosts in his own ghost country being slaughtered wantonly, the Ghost King, who was standing in the city as tall as a mountain, roared, drew out a nine-ring broadsword, and smashed it at the ghost army above the dark clouds.
clang!
The sound of a phoenix was heard, and black flames surged into the sky. It was originally an invisible thing, but at this moment it was as strong as a divine weapon. When the big knife in the hand of the Hunxie Ghost King touched the flames, it was shattered and a huge gap was melted out.
"Flat-haired bastard, grandpa is going to tear you into pieces and use them as a snack for wine!"
Even though the weapon in his hand was broken, the Ghost King Hunxie remained fearless. He raised his leg and stepped onto the dark clouds. In the ghost country he ruled, it seemed that endless ghosts followed the Ghost King's steps like locusts, rushing towards the dark clouds, wanting to engulf this ghost army with its flags clearly displayed.
Dong Huang saw everything, but her eyes were calm. The only thing she saw was the Ghost King Hunxie, who was holding a big knife and wanted to take the head of her mount from the army.
Zheng~
A sharp white sword appeared behind her, followed by a second long sword shining with golden light, and a third invisible sword...
When the sword intent soared into the sky, the Hunxie Ghost King, who was charging into the ghost army, immediately felt threatened. When he saw several sword shadows beside the Lord of Youhuang, he did not hesitate, threw down the big knife full of gaps in his hand, turned around and left, and his figure became increasingly faint, as if he was about to disappear between heaven and earth.
"Youhuang, you and I have no grudges in the past or in the present, why bother mobilizing an army to attack me!"
The Hunxie Ghost King originally thought that the Lord of Youhuang just wanted to attack it. After all, among the ghost countries, the principle is that if you attack me once, I will return the favor tomorrow.
But when it saw the sword light, it knew that people were going to take real action against it. The Senluo Sword Box is one of the magic weapons that the Youhuang Ghost Kingdom uses to intimidate other ghost kingdoms. Once the sword box is opened, the Ghost King will die.
However, just when the ghost king's originally powerful aura was about to disappear into thin air, a thin book as small as dust compared to the ghost king's body was slapped on the ghost king's hideous head as big as a mountain.
