Volume 8: The Road to the Ancient Dragon Chapter 427 Chaotic Battlefield
Immortality! Indestructibility!
Tough! Strong!
At this moment, this was the only feeling that came to Murphy's mind.
Without the slightest hesitation—
Dragon incarnation! Murphy transformed into the Storm Dragon King again. He was eager to figure out what was so special about this new trait. Then he immediately felt the difference from before. He could only vaguely sense it in human form, but once he transformed into a dragon, the feeling became clear.
The dragon's body seemed to be as solid and powerful as rock, with muscles and bones integrated into one. This allowed every part of his body to be controlled individually, and his control over his body reached an unprecedented level.
When he stood still, a subtle sense of stagnation inexplicably emerged, as if it could last forever.
It raised a dragon claw, and its sturdy forelimb became stronger, with a strange texture like rock.
It's a very wonderful feeling.
It is difficult to describe and explain in words.
He could not feel cold or heat, he could not the howling wind or the biting cold.
No, he could feel it, but it no longer made him feel uncomfortable.
This feeling is extremely strange, as if standing in a higher dimension. Although I am in this material world, I feel like I am detached from reality.
At this moment, Murphy only wanted to find someone to fight with and test how powerful this new ancient dragon body was.
Suddenly, a private message appeared in the address book.
Emperor Shenwu: Brother Aidan, are you ready? Come here quickly, the Zerg of Ahn'Qiraj has begun its attack.
What? So fast!
Murphy was stunned at first, but then he let out a long dragon roar and flew towards Kalimdor. This battle came just in time.
Aidan DeLong: Hang on, I'll be right there.
With a flap of its wings, it flew across the sky like the wind.
Unfortunately, it is still too far from Kalimdor and there is no suitable teleportation hub. Even if we fly at full speed, it will take at least a whole night.
While flying, Murphy kept an eye on the situation on the battlefield, asking about the close combat situation.
The Shenwu Emperor also kept sending new information about the battle, but he was obviously overwhelmed by the war and often did not have time to reply. Whenever this happened, Murphy would go to ask Morgan Lisa.
The army of Ahn'Qiraj Zerg is still gathering, and this time they seem to be out in full force, wanting to defeat the army of the Night Alliance in one fell swoop.
In the wilderness on the border of Silithus and Feralas, more than one million Zerg troops are ready for battle.
On the other hand, the Dark Night Alliance was also mobilizing troops and sending various envoys to the rear to ask for help. Facing this fierce battle, they had to concentrate all their strength.
The main force is still the Centaur army. In order to be promoted to a legend, the Emperor Shenwu assembled an army of more than 500,000.
The night elves have a smaller population, but have assembled an army of over 100,000.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the Ahn'Qiraj Zerg began to send out a large number of scouts to conduct a comprehensive armed reconnaissance, while the Dark Night Alliance also sent out a large number of adventurers to engage in a fierce battle with Ahn'Qiraj's scout troops.
At nine o'clock in the evening, the Zerg army launched the first wave of tentative attacks. Although it was only a tentative attack, the troops dispatched still exceeded 100,000. These low-level Zerg were divided into dozens of teams to attack the various camps of the Dark Night Alliance. They suffered heavy casualties in front of the solid front line formed by the ancient war trees and were shot crazily by the archers of the Dark Night Alliance.
At 9:45, the Zerg retreated and the second wave of offensive was launched immediately. This time the offensive had more than 200,000 troops, and they launched a series of fierce attacks on the weak points that had been discovered before. The battle situation was once precarious.
At 10:11, after discovering that the enemy's offensive had slowed down, the Great Emperor Shenwu personally led the Knights of the Wind to launch a counterattack, defeating the enemy's main force in one fell swoop, killing the Ahn'Qiraj Zerg leader Skoram in battle, and the Zerg retreated.
At 10:35, the third wave of offensive arrived, still with more than 200,000 Zerg troops, among whom were Orc priests. The Orc priests cast terrible void magic, and a large number of ancient war trees on the front line were corrupted and destroyed. Thanks to the desperate resistance of a large number of adventurers, especially the life-for-life tactics of some assassin players, most of the Orc priests were successfully killed, slowing down the enemy's offensive.
At 11:15, Tyrande received the blessing of the moon goddess Elune, summoned a meteor shower, and repelled the enemy.
At twelve o'clock sharp, the fourth wave of offensive was launched. The front line was shaky. The Tauren Chieftain Cairne Bloodhoof led the Tauren army to join the battle. (The Tauren were almost exterminated in the Centaur War, but later it was found that many tribes had hidden in various corners of Kalimdor. Now all these tribes have returned, greatly increasing the Tauren's military strength.) A thousand elite soldiers of the Dragon Knights' expeditionary force also joined the battle. The Vrykul Solar fought side by side with Cairne Bloodhoof and successfully blocked the enemy's fierce attack.
At 1:05, in the fifth wave of offensive, the Ahn'Qiraj Zerg sent out a large number of Anubisath War Giants. At the critical moment, the Sacred Tree Legion arrived and stabilized the front line. Then the Watcher Legion arrived at the battlefield, and the defense line of the Night Alliance was strengthened.
At 2:30, in the sixth wave of offensive, the Ahn'Qiraj Zerg sent out tunnel worms and output a large number of troops behind the defense line. The Night Elves were forced to retreat to the third line of defense.
At 3:50, in the seventh wave of offensive, the Ahn'Qiraj Zerg dispatched a large number of air forces to fight for air supremacy and fought with the Eagle Riders in the dark. Twenty minutes later, the Purifier Dryad troops arrived at the battlefield. Thirty minutes later, Shandris Feathermoon led the Feathermoon Legion to the battlefield and successfully repelled the Zerg.
At 4:50, Tyrande assembled 80,000 adventurers to launch a counterattack. Malfurion launched a war spell - Nature's Wrath, summoned a large number of tree people to act as cannon fodder, and recaptured the second line of defense.
At five fifteen, Fandral Staghelm led another druid force to the battlefield.
At 5:55, the Ahn'Qiraj Zerg gathered their forces again, preparing to launch the ninth wave of offensive...
While flying, Murphy listened to the battle reports from Morgan Lisa. At the beginning, his heart was tense from time to time, as if every offensive would defeat the Dark Night Alliance. However, every time, they were successfully blocked, either because the heroes used their ultimate skills or new reinforcements arrived on the battlefield.
However, the military strength of the Ahn'Qiraj Zerg is really terrifying. Each wave can concentrate hundreds of thousands of troops to launch an attack, and they can still maintain their morale after being repelled so many times. Murphy suspects that the Zerg does not have such a thing as morale at all. Maybe it is the hive mind that makes them fearless and indomitable.
Later on, Murphy gradually calmed down.
At this moment, the dawn sunlight has appeared in the distant sky, and the coastline of Kalimdor is about to appear.
Murphy calculated the distance and found that it would take about an hour to reach the battlefield.
An hour?
Murphy's heart moved, and he began to slowly lower his altitude, blowing a breath of thunder at a Naga swimming in the sea.
System prompt: You have entered combat status.
Murphy did not stop to see the results of the battle. In fact, he did not slow down at all.
Seventeen seconds later, another breath of thunder was heard, this time killing an unlucky fishman.
Twenty-three seconds later, there was another dragon's breath. This time, no monster was found. Fortunately, there were always small animals in the sea. It electrocuted three small fish and a lobster to death with one breath...
The only purpose of Murphy doing this is to stay in combat mode. According to the game settings, if he does not perform any combat actions after 30 seconds of being out of combat, he will be out of combat.
Therefore, as long as you keep attacking once every 30 seconds and hit a target, you can accumulate the "Fierce Battle" BUFF.
Fortunately, the Storm Dragon flies very fast. 30 seconds is enough to fly several thousand meters. Within such a long distance, it can always find some living creatures.
While accumulating the "Fighting" BUFF, Murphy prayed silently in his heart -
You must hold on.
…
HR Manager (Centaur Warlord): "No, boss! We can't hold on any longer." The Centaur Warlord in front of him was covered in bloody wounds from insect bites, and naturally someone came over to give him some blood.
Although the pain was only 30%, fighting in and out of the pile of bugs was also a very painful memory, especially those big bugs which were more terrifying than each other. The HR manager who had a mild arachnophobia in real life was so scared that he had to stay up late at night to accompany his boss to fight the big bugs. If it wasn't for the double bonus, he would not have done it.
The Great Emperor Shenwu looked at the Centaur generals who had gathered around him, and then looked at the Centaur army behind him that had suffered heavy casualties. After a whole night of continuous fighting, more than half of the 500,000-strong army had suffered casualties.
Even if most of them are garbage soldiers generated by the system, they are still worth countless money.
However, as long as he can be promoted to Legend, all this is worth it. Besides, if you want to wear the crown, you must bear the weight. As the King of Centaurs and one of the leaders of the Dark Night Alliance, he must live up to his responsibilities.
Thanks to the fearless adventurers and heroes of all races, the battle can be sustained.
Since the Night Elf Alliance is the official camp, many hero players have emerged in the past six months. In this regard, they have a great advantage.
But it looks like it can't hold on any longer.
If this continues, I will have to use my ultimate move.
"Boss, should we retreat? Let's retreat before we lose all our capital."
"Yes, boss."
"Boss, I have a plan. If we retreat now and attack the World Tree directly, while the Dark Night Army is tied down here, we can easily take down the World Tree. If you can absorb the power of the World Tree, maybe you can also be promoted to Legend."
To be promoted to a legend, I think it’s more like being promoted to a world-destroying BOSS.
The Great Emperor Shenwu shook his head. "No, the more we must hold on at this time, the more we must hold on. Only those who can turn the tide and save the world can be called legendary heroes. Besides, I don't even bother to do something like stabbing someone in the back. Gather more troops. I want to fight to the end."
"Boss, boss, there is new information!"
A Centaur Forerunner ran over quickly and said, "I just logged off and browsed the forum. It was not C'Thun who commanded the army of Ahn'Qiraj, but Ner'zhul. Ner'zhul killed C'Thun and absorbed C'Thun's purification. Now he has become the Agent of the Void.
Some people also say that Ner'zhul was actually possessed by C'Thun, but in short, Ner'zhul has now become a third-level world destroyer and is much stronger. "
What...Emperor Shenwu was stunned.
According to the original plan, he was responsible for dealing with Ner'zhul.
"Hahaha, it's better to become stronger. The stronger the enemy, the more sense of accomplishment you will have after defeating him. What are you afraid of? Go back and share the intelligence with Tyrande and Malfurion. The three of us will attack together. Not to mention Ner'zhul, even if Archimonde comes, we will defeat him."
…
Ner'zhul stared coldly at the army in front of him.
The priests behind him looked at him in fear.
Ever since absorbing C'Thun's void power, the feeling of keeping strangers away from Ner'zhul has become stronger. In the past, they respected this chief, but now they are afraid of him.
Ner'zhul (Void Walker): "Tyrande, Malfurion, the Godly Emperor... these leaders of the Night Elf Alliance are more powerful than I thought. But it doesn't matter. Facing the endless Zerg army, they are doomed to fail. The void will devour them. It's time to launch the final blow."
He looked behind him and waved his hand violently.
Behind him, countless Ahn'Qiraj Zerg with red and black shells were standing ready for battle.
These are the powerful Ahn'Qiraj Bloodthirster, Ahn'Qiraj Black Battle Tank, and Ahn'Qiraj Tyrannical Warrior, all of which are elite units.
With more than ten thousand elite monsters, this force will become the key force to open the gap.
Ner'zhul issued instructions to each boss in the spiritual realm.
Ner'zhul (Voidwalker): "My loyal servants, now - an all-out attack."
Several major bosses of the Zerg in Ahn'Qiraj were all deployed to the battlefield by Ner'zhul.
On the ground, the twin emperors - Sword Emperor Vek'nilas the Great and Demon Emperor Vek'lor the Great, led the Anubisath giants to charge forward. Behind them, a tide of Zerg rushed towards the crumbling defense line of the Dark Night Alliance. The Zerg army of hundreds of thousands was as endless as the ocean.
In the sky, Princess Hakkar led countless Ahn'Qiraj Soldier Drones, Ahn'Qiraj Scorpions, and Obsidian Destroyers, and their vibrating wings almost blocked out the dawn sunlight.
Beneath the ground, dozens of giant tunnel worms are digging their way forward, preparing to launch a surprise attack.
A comprehensive and three-dimensional offensive.
Faced with the Zerg's crazy offensive, Tyrande couldn't help but turn pale. Standing on a tree tower, looking at the endless Zerg army in front of her, Tyrande felt that she would be swallowed up at any time.
Tyrande (High Priestess of the Moon Goddess): "Elune, the great goddess of the moon, your believers pray devoutly to you, please grant me strength, so that the power of the moon goddess can descend upon this world."
In the sky, the moon that was gradually disappearing due to the dawn sunlight suddenly became unusually clear and bright, followed by countless rays of holy moonlight that fell one after another.
God-granted miracle—God’s punishment moonlight!
However, in the eyes of players, it has a more appropriate name - Luna Railgun!
Boom boom boom!
Under the bombardment of the divine punishment moonlight, countless insects turned into powder.
However, there were too many bugs, and the Luna Railgun could only defend an area in the center of the Shadow Camp.
At the Centaur camp, the Great Emperor Shenwu also decisively used his ultimate move.
Emperor Shenwu (King of Centaurs): "Mother Earth, your children need your help. Lend me your power and awaken the great will hidden deep in the earth!"
A divine miracle—the earth awakens!
The ground suddenly cracked into countless cracks, and a giant hand made of rock and soil slowly emerged. The palm alone was more than ten meters long, and soon, a giant earth giant that was a hundred meters tall appeared in front of everyone.
This is a "legendary creature". It is not a BOSS but is better than a BOSS. Especially on such a large-scale battlefield, it is like Optimus Prime.
Every step he took could kill countless bugs, and the shock wave would scatter the bugs everywhere.
However, the insects' sharp fangs and teeth are barely able to penetrate its defenses.
The Great Emperor Shenwu leaped forward and rushed onto the giant's shoulder in one breath, commanding the giant to kill crazily.
"Wow, what a cool ultimate move - I'll try it too."
Hero skill——Meteor shower!
Morgan Lisa also activated her ultimate move.
Countless flaming meteors fell from the sky, bombarding the insects on the battlefield, but compared with the Luna Orbital Cannon, they were completely not on the same level.
Just when it seemed like it was about to break through, suddenly——
Boom boom boom!
Suddenly, more than a dozen huge tunnel worms broke out of the ground on the ground of the camp behind him, and they opened their big mouths and sprayed out small insects.
This scene was happening in every camp. Countless insects rushed into the camp, causing chaos in the rear.
Although there were a large number of adventurers in the rear who did not go into battle, after a night of fighting, many of them had two or three layers of wounded DEBUFF and had little combat power left.
It was a massacre.
