Volume 6: Fighting for the World Chapter 269: Strong
Of course, against the joint defense of several undead wizards, I no longer have any advantage in the number of the Black Bone Dragons. Naturally, it will not be as easy as before when I dealt with the undead wizards fighting alone, each of whom was only guarded by dozens or one or two hundred Black Bone Dragons. In order to seize the time and try to kill more undead wizards, I can't stay in a cluster of undead wizards for too long. While supplementing it with appropriate tactical strategies, I also have to launch a strong attack to break through. In a frontal offense and defense battle, facing the opponent's desperate resistance, I would injure the enemy by one thousand and lose eight hundred of my own, but it would inevitably cost a certain price, which increased a lot of casualties. But now is not the time to feel sorry for my subordinates. In order to achieve greater results and leave a deeper and more painful lesson for the opponent, some sacrifices are still necessary. Anyway, as the party that has taken the initiative in the war and can be said to have won the battle, it should have the right to demand corresponding war compensation from the defeated party. Qiu Shui Chang Tian, Tian Xing, and Ye You want to act as intermediaries to mediate and safeguard the interests of those dependents in the "Anti-Stupid Alliance". They can't just talk nonsense and use some illusory principles to perfunctorily prevaricate me. They must pay something to show their sincerity. I believe that all the sacrifices should be compensated afterwards, and these will not be in vain for the Black Bone Dragon's subordinates who I spent a lot of effort to subdue one by one.
Fortunately, the most casualties were only in the early stages of the battle when the strong attack was launched. Once the opponent was effectively mobilized and the flaws in the far-from-tacit cooperation between the undead wizards were used, the focused attack tore through the outer defense line of the undead wizard cluster and broke through to the central area, directly threatening the lives of the undead wizards, and the stalemate in the battle would change. As long as the brave black bone dragons, most of the time, were forced to break in, every time they seized the opportunity to kill an undead wizard, the black bone dragons belonging to them would lose control and fall into chaos, not only greatly reducing their own combat effectiveness. Not knowing how to attack specifically, it would also hinder the actions of the black bone dragons under the command of other undead wizards, causing their defenses to reveal more flaws, making it easier for us to break through more quickly. As more and more undead wizards were killed, the resistance we encountered would become weaker and weaker. At that time, we would have to drive those uncontrolled hostile black bone dragons away from the defensive array. We would not have to fight them to the death, and the casualties would be much smaller. Otherwise, we would not have much money to attack those undead wizard clusters. Of course, as a "magic killer", Ebola played a huge deterrent role in it, and witnessed its ghostly skills. Other undead wizards had to use almost all of their men to reinforce and protect their own defense lines, which were covered in layers. Fearing that there would be a gap and Ebola would forcefully break in, threatening their own lives, almost no one dared to send people to support the undead wizard cluster that was being attacked by me, fearing that it would bring disaster to themselves and bring danger to themselves. As a result, I dared to launch an attack in front of the opponent's 30,000 or 40,000 black bone dragons with less than 3,000 black bone dragons, and continued to hold the initiative in the war.
Seeing Ibora so excitedly killing and devouring the souls of those undead wizards, I also put down a worry. I no longer have to worry about its growth. It can be regarded as an unexpected gain. Because of my "protection order" for the tenth-level undead. In addition, in order to facilitate the use of mobilization, I did not let Ibora leave my control area, limiting its range of activities and preventing it from traveling around the Lost Continent to search for "delicious food". As a result, it can only eat the ninth-level undead. For its growth, it is already a mid-level tenth-level land. It has a very limited effect. It devours a lot, but has little nutrition. It is extremely difficult for a high-level Destruction Knight to accumulate enough energy and evolve into the ultimate Destruction Knight of the top form. The inherent laws of the "Dead Space" have seriously restricted the growth and evolution of the "Undead Public Enemy". The higher the level, the greater the difficulty. I am always anxious and worried about the growth rate of Ibora, but it is impossible to use the limited tenth-level undead in my hands to nourish it. With limited resources, I have always been suffering from no solution. I didn't expect that the soul energy of the necromancers would have such a great effect. These ninth-level necromancers, who were not considered top-level but just slightly stronger masters, were equivalent to tenth-level intermediate necromancers. In this battle, at least thirty or forty holy necromancers died at Ibola's hands. They were really well fed and well-fed. Their growth in the past year or so was probably not as nutritious as this meal. They became more and more excited as they killed more and more. They were extremely focused and always trying to seize opportunities. As soon as the opponent's defense showed a flaw, they would immediately pounce on it and launch a fatal attack on the necromancer who was guarding it. Unfortunately, Wu Ma's strength is still a little weak. Its "primary earth escape" ability cannot allow it to rush directly from underground to the inner layer of undead wizards to launch an attack under the tight protection of the black bone dragons. I also don't want it and my black bone dragons to risk their lives in the front line of the battle and encounter the siege of many hostile black bone dragons. It is difficult to break through the blockade of the hostile black bone dragons from the front, and we must fight quickly and not waste too much time. Even if I transfer it to participate in the battle, it will not be able to gain much. In addition, the four vampire fang princes were still hovering around without giving up. Although they had suffered some losses and consumed a lot of energy in the previous siege, they no longer dared to recklessly charge into the group of black bone dragons that could not distinguish the relationship between friend and foe and go directly to cause trouble for Ibola. However, they were unwilling to give up and were lurking on the side, waiting for a more suitable opportunity to fight. I did not dare to act rashly and transferred Wu Ma over to expose him. His strength was much . If he was targeted by Sablotu and the others, even if he could escape with his life, it might create certain obstacles to his future development. I did not want to take this risk.
Once you miss this opportunity, you will miss it. Taking this opportunity, I tried my best to help Iborado kill and devour several undead wizards. There was no suitable excuse or sufficient reason. Under normal circumstances, there was no chance to kill undead wizards in the "Dead Space". Every time you die, you will lose 5% of your mental power limit. Who would be willing to do that? It would cause a big mess and attract other undead wizards to attack. Speaking of which, I really have to thank the "Anti-Stupid Alliance" for making such a fuss, so that I can kill these players openly, so that Ibora, who has paid the most and made the greatest contribution, unexpectedly gained a lot of benefits. Of course, afterwards, I had to solemnly warn it that it must be strictly prohibited from hunting undead wizards privately, so that it would not get addicted to killing this time and could not control its instinctive desires. If I become a "undead wizard poacher", I am afraid I will really become a "undead wizard public enemy".
I broke through two more clusters of undead wizards, killed seventeen of them, and together with the dozen that Ibola had killed alone, the total number of undead wizards who had died at my hands had reached about sixty. Nearly half of the hundreds of undead wizards from the "Anti-Stupid Alliance" who had participated in this battle had paid the heavy price of losing 5% of their mental power limit. It can be said that I had won a great victory and achieved a brilliant result, which was enough to show my super strength as the "No. 1 Undead Wizard in the World" - "Blood Bat Transformation" and "Instant Movement of Demon Possession" were both abilities to save my life and escape. To defeat and kill the opponent, I had to rely on real skills. The rumors that Qiu Shui Chang Tian, Tian Xing, and Ye You had deliberately spread were refuted. At least they did not have the strength to challenge my position now. However, there are less than 2,000 black bone dragons left under my command, and I dare not continue to expand the results of the battle. If the strength is too much, it will not be enough to deter other undead wizards. If they are emboldened to launch a joint counterattack, even if they do not pose a great threat to me, they are fully capable of forcing me to retreat. I will have to negotiate a ceasefire with Qiu Shui Chang Tian, Tian Xing, and Ye You later. Once I lose the initiative, I can no longer control the situation at least on the surface. It will dampen the spirit of the victor. It is not conducive to bargaining with them. Therefore, I must not give these defeated soldiers a chance to regroup and launch a counterattack. I must maintain the necessary deterrence against them. I have observed that several undead wizard clusters have shown signs of being ready to move. As long as someone dares to take the lead, maybe others will have the courage to respond. I immediately stopped the action of continuing to attack the next undead wizard cluster, gathered together, and confronted them from a distance under the guise of adjusting the formation. Whoever dares to come forward first to act as the boss is likely to become my next target of attack. As a result, they were unable to communicate and coordinate effectively with each other and had to switch to a defensive position. They were cautious and did not dare to come forward to provoke me. We reached a delicate balance. I did not have enough strength to attack proactively, fearing that the other party would take advantage of me. However, they were worried about their own safety and did not dare to be the first to take the initiative to counterattack, fearing that other companions would not respond. They just stood there quietly. However, from the position, I was still surrounded by hostile black bone dragons that were at least ten times larger than me. However, such a stalemate was formed, and no one dared to attack. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that I was in control of the initiative, which was quite beneficial for the upcoming armistice negotiations and gave me a greater say.
Qingwu Feiyang's grasp of the timing was indeed appropriate. Not long after the confrontation was formed, he arrived at the battlefield in a timely manner with the leaders of various forces such as Qiu Shui Changtian, Tianxing, Yeyou, Zhenming Tianzi, and more than a dozen top undead wizards. First, their three wizard kings used the "Crown of the Corpse King" to contact me, and first talked about some big principles, expressing their intention to cease fire and negotiate. Naturally, I showed that I would not go too far and was willing to accept the position of peacefully resolving the dispute through negotiations. In order to show my sincerity, I even took the remaining black bone dragon subordinates and voluntarily withdrew from the battle circle. Anyway, I am no longer able to expand the victory and continue to fight with the "Anti-Stupid Alliance", so I am happy to pretend to be generous and give face to Qiu Shui Chang Tian and Ye You. Even if we cannot reach an agreement in the end and the negotiations break down, and the hatred is still difficult to resolve and we still have to go to war, that is a matter for the future. Give me some time to prepare, and I will have enough ability to find the undead wizards of the "Anti-Stupid Alliance" who participated in this battle and demand repayment one by one. Unless Qiu Shui Chang Tian and Ye You openly turn against me and directly provide shelter for those people, I believe that none of them can escape my revenge afterwards. But I transferred Yibo La away. Regardless of whether the negotiation was successful or not, at least it was impossible to trouble the surviving undead wizards. It didn't make much sense for it to stay here. In addition, the four vampire fang princes were still standing by, looking for the opportunity to attack. I didn't want to expose them too much to the undead wizards like Qiu Shui Changtian who had vampire fang subordinates or pets, so as not to attract their "unreasonable thoughts" and think about attacking Sablotu and others. So I instructed Yibo La to lead them away early. For Yibo La and the vampire fang princes, this was the safest way to deal with them.
Originally, only one quota was needed for the promotion of Shaman, and it was almost impossible for the blood-sucking fang prince to be directly subdued by the undead wizard by forcibly signing a "soul contract". I had no intention of taking more than one. However, after this battle, I made further new discoveries about the abilities of the four blood-sucking fang princes. Although their own strength is only at the middle level of level ten, and more of their special features are reflected in their four-fold form transformation ability, the four princes have a set of coordinated joint attack techniques when they join forces, and the power they exert is far above the ordinary level ten upper-level undead, which can't help but arouse my interest. As a royal family endowed with special equipment by the system, even if it is as high as the blood-sucking fang prince, it is only almost impossible for us undead wizards to forcibly subdue it. It is not absolutely impossible. It should only meet certain conditions. For example, if you have super strength or pass some trials, you will have the opportunity to subdue the blood-sucking fang prince as your subordinate. The process may be a little troublesome, and may require more time and energy, or even greater risks. However, I have four quick-moving subordinates who are suitable for launching surprise attacks deep into the enemy camp. The combined strength of the four people is still above the tenth-level upper-level undead. They will definitely play a considerable role in some battles. If there is a chance, I still want to try my best. I don't want to easily give other undead wizards a bargain. Anyway, a single blood-sucking fang prince is only a tenth-level middle-level. In the later period, his strength is still a little weak. With the innate qualifications of the blood-sucking fangs that Qiu Shui Changtian and Ye You have subdued, it is almost impossible for them to have a chance to leapfrog and reach the tenth-level upper level. Letting them replace the blood-sucking fang princes is a bit of a waste of limited precious resources. It is better to be in my hands alone, so that I can play a greater role in the struggle against the light players.
Since I intend to gain more practical benefits from the negotiations, if I can achieve my goal smoothly, it will be much more cost-effective than starting a war. There is no need to be too concerned with some details. I took the initiative and made a gesture to show my grace and confidence. Whether it is war or peace, I have the confidence to safeguard my own interests and will not suffer losses. In exchange, Qiu Shui Changtian, Tianxing, and Ye You greeted me with smiles, and also received the secret praise of Qingwu Feiyang. Next, Qiu Shui Changtian and the others shouted to the "Anti-Stupid Alliance" and announced their intention to mediate and negotiate with me to resolve the dispute. Naturally, they also received a response soon. Several groups of undead wizards gradually dispersed the black bone dragons who were protecting them, and quickly selected three representatives to come over for negotiations. Judging from their speed, it seems that there is still a person in charge who can take charge of the overall situation. That is why they were able to quickly elect a negotiating representative who can decide the interests of the defeated group to a certain extent. It is a pity that too few undead wizards were killed. If we can also kill these guys who have a certain prestige in the "Anti-Stupid Alliance", creating a situation of leaderlessness and increasing deterrence to them, the subsequent negotiations may make it easier to achieve my goal.
We got to know each other first. I was well-known, and Qiu Shui Chang Tian and the other dozen middlemen were also familiar with me. The three people representing the "Anti-Stupid Alliance" were Wan Gu Chang Qing, Toad Who Wants to Eat Swan Meat, and Norwegian Forest. The leader should be Wan Gu Chang Qing. Although I didn't know them before, I heard Qing Wu Fei Yang mention their names. They were all players with relatively high reputations in the "Anti-Stupid Alliance". I originally thought that they would be among the five people who came out to negotiate with me for the first time, but I didn't expect that they chose to hide behind the scenes and sent the Count of Monte Cristo and the others out. The three of them all had expressions of shame mixed with anger and resentment. They gnashed their teeth at me, looking like they hated me to the core and wanted to kill me. But I don't know if they were just pretending to be strong in front of everyone. They had already been determined to fight to the death. Why should they care so much and choose to defend? If I commanded the black bone dragons under my command to rush towards me, with my strength, even if I could take advantage of the chaos, I would probably have to flee in the end because of the huge difference in numbers. In the final analysis, they are still greedy for life and afraid of death. They are reluctant to lose that 5% of their mental power limit. Why should they pretend to be hypocritical in front of me? Do you think I am so simple and can't see through their true nature? No matter how much they bluff, they can't have the courage to die rather than live in disgrace.
As the middleman, he naturally needs to take the responsibility of hosting. After some humility, Qingwu Feiyang would definitely not take on this thankless task, so Qiu Shui Changtian came forward as a representative, "A-Dai brother. Several brothers from the 'Karamayi Development Federation' (the public name of the 'Anti-Dai Alliance'), let me say a few words first, and talk about the opinions of several middlemen. No matter what the reason for you two to cause this fight, you are all undead wizards. Once you are killed in the 'Dead Space', you will lose 5% of your mental power limit, and the punishment is extremely severe. It is better not to start a war lightly. If this kind of internal strife spreads, it will have a negative impact on you and even on us as a whole. Wouldn't that make those light players laugh at us? Everyone should make concessions, seek common ground while reserving differences, and solve the root cause of the conflict. Don't resort to force. No matter who is hurt, it will affect the overall strength of our necromancers. In the face of external enemies, we should still put the overall situation first, try our best to unite, and use our limited strength to fight against the Church of Light."
At first glance, it seems to be high-sounding. But it is to give both of us a slap on the wrist. The responsibility is equally divided. The opinions generated in this way are definitely not in line with my intentions, and I naturally refuse to accept them. Since you want to side with the other party from the beginning and do not respect my legitimate rights and interests. Don't blame me for losing face and not giving you face. "I think the cause of the matter should be made clear first. The results seem to be similar. Both sides participated in the war and suffered considerable losses, but the nature of infringing on the legitimate interests of others and self-defense counterattacks is very different. The responsibilities that should be borne, the severity, or even the existence, are also different and cannot be generalized. The giant magician clan was the first to attack the holy place in 'Karamayi', and has occupied it for quite a long time. Many men have been deployed here. It has been developed almost completely. In fact, it has become my sphere of influence. Any latecomers who want to intervene need to obtain my consent first, otherwise it will be an illegal invasion. This so-called 'Kara The Mayi Development Federation did not have any formal consultation with me beforehand, but trespassed into my sphere of influence without authorization, attempting to usurp my vested interests. Even though I had repeatedly issued solemn announcements and asked them to withdraw, they still insisted on their own way and did not listen to my ultimatum. They even intensified their threat of force, united hundreds of undead wizards, and dispatched black bone dragons that were more than ten times my number to surround me, wantonly launched a siege, and took the lead in provoking a war, intending to put me to death and force me to surrender. I was just fighting back in self-defense to protect my legitimate interests and life safety. The responsibility for this war lies entirely with the Karamay Development Federation, and all the consequences caused by it should be borne by them. "
Before Qiu Shui Chang Tian could speak, the toad who wanted to eat the swan meat could not help but said, "Why should you dominate it all by yourself just because you occupied it first? 'Karamay' is not a specific territory, there are no clear boundaries, and there are no local guards. Why can't we participate in the development? You are too overbearing, aren't you? If so, you are the first undead wizard to change your job in Tian Xia, the first to enter the 'Dead Space', the first to set foot in the Lost Continent, and you have the most undead subordinates. Can all these be regarded as your sphere of influence, and you don't allow other undead wizards to enter?"
I glanced at the toad who seemed a little angry and wanted to eat swan meat, "I don't need to argue with you about reason. The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. All interests are determined by strength, not by reason. I have the ability to protect the holy land 'Karamay', it belongs to my sphere of influence. If you want to take it from me, defeat me first." There are three people on the other side against me, and most of the middlemen like Qiu Shui Changtian are probably not well-intentioned and want to make me lose. They must be secretly inclined to the "Anti-Stupid Alliance". When it comes to reasoning, I don't have the ability to debate with a group of people. The situation will only become more and more unfavorable to me. I might as well let strength decide everything. I will confront them in advance and see if they have the courage and determination to openly confront me through this incident and prepare to decide the winner.
My clear and tough words not only blocked the mouth of the toad who wanted to eat the swan meat, but also changed the expressions of Qiushui Changtian, Tianxing, Yeyou, etc. They sank slightly, and exchanged a few glances without saying a word. I only heard Wan Gu Changqing say: "We both have our own opinions. The cause of the matter is difficult to explain in a few words, but the result of the war is obvious. Everyone has seen it. Ah Dai, you are unharmed, but more than 2,000 black bone dragons were killed, but we' Karamay Development "In addition to the large number of black bone dragons that died, the Federation also lost about 60 to 70 undead wizards, about half of them. Everyone will lose 5% of their mental power limit, and the loss is definitely much more severe than yours. Especially in the later stages of the war, you have already gained the upper hand, but you are unwilling to stop, and you even targeted us undead wizards and killed many people. You are too cruel, you have no morality at all, and you want to put all the responsibility on us. Is this how you, the famous "world's number one undead wizard", act?"
"My title of 'the best undead wizard in the world' refers to my tyrannical strength. I have no obligation to forgive or let go of those who have no self-knowledge and do not know their own limits and invade me. It is not your turn to judge my actions, whether they are praised or criticized. As for the outcome of the war, the invading party should have been prepared for the price of failure. Everything is your own fault. You feel sad and unfair when too many people die. How can you not feel shameless when hundreds of undead wizards gather more than 50,000 black bone dragons to besiege me? If I am killed, I will lose 5% of my mental power limit, and my whole army will be wiped out. The ending of annihilation. Is it natural? I don't want to talk to you about the process and results. I'll see how you plan to deal with it, because your shameless war of aggression has caused me such a huge loss that I have to spend several months to recover my strength. It has seriously affected my development. If you don't give me a satisfactory answer and make corresponding compensation to me, this matter will not be settled. I will reserve the right to pursue the responsibility of the relevant personnel afterwards, and if there is any unpleasant incident again, I hope you can understand and don't regret it. "
Wan Gu Chang Qing, who had been trying to remain calm, finally became furious. His face was full of anger, and his words revealed his uncontrollable anger. "Ah Dai, don't go too far. You have killed so many of us, and you are still not satisfied. Do you want to put us all to death? You even want compensation. Don't our losses count? So many companions have been killed by you. You have lost 5% of your mental power limit. What should you use to compensate?"
"That's your internal problem. It has nothing to do with me. If you dare to provoke me, you must be prepared to pay the corresponding price. As the victor of the war, I have the right to demand that the defeated party 'cede territory and pay compensation'. I don't want to argue too much with you. Whether it's okay or not, you can discuss it and give me an answer. I won't force you to agree to it."
"From your tone, it seems that you have us defeated. You only have more than a thousand black bone dragons left. Your strength has been greatly reduced. Do you still have the ability to threaten us? You were already unable to attack before and had to confront us. Once we launched a counterattack, you would have no choice but to flee. When our fallen members are resurrected, they will soon be able to gather a large army. Will you be as lucky as this time? A lucky victory does not mean that your strength is above our 'Karamay Development Federation' and we have no hope of winning."
"Since I have confirmed that you are my enemy, will I still insist on confronting hundreds of undead wizards alone? You can regroup a large army to guard against my attacks, or even temporarily occupy the holy land 'Karamay', but so what? Can you always act as a group in the 'Dead Space' and never separate? Or always bring all your black bone dragon subordinates with you as guards? As long as some of you are left alone, or the strength of your guards is not enough, my men will have the opportunity to launch a surprise attack and have the ability to put you to death. How long can you maintain your temporary advantage? Do you have the ability to chase and kill me who possesses the abilities of 'blood bat transformation' and 'instant teleportation'? How many undead wizards are willing to continue to work for you, take their own future as a bet, and fight with me? I still say that strength determines everything. When you have enough strength to suppress me, you can take advantage of me. Otherwise, don't make trouble and covet those interests that you are not capable of. Since you have made a wrong choice, you must pay the corresponding price for your greed. "I said this very impolitely and mercilessly. I must be tough to the end. Without taking certain risks, I can't deter Qiu Shui Changtian and Ye You from their gradually expanding desires and force them to give up their attempts to covet my vested interests and suppress my development.
"A-Dai, what conditions do you want to propose?" Wan Gu Chang Qing and the other three looked at each other in bewilderment after being scolded by me. They were filled with anger but they didn't know how to vent it. They lowered their heads and remained silent. They were stunned for a long while before Qiu Shui Chang Tian, the middleman, spoke up.
