Volume 6: Fighting for the World Chapter 156: Fighting in Huadu Again
After the meeting, Jefferson, Vilenzov and other great pharaohs have left. According to the plan, Khufu will go to various mummy populations to find out if there are any pharaohs with relatively strong strength, so that I can conquer them. According to the information provided by Osasura, among the original twelve great pharaohs, because of its remorse and lack of ambition, its strength is the lowest, and those pharaohs with dark constitutions generally have little ability like Khufu, especially practical experience. Even if they join forces with me, their chances of winning the promotion challenge are not great. To defeat the great pharaoh, we can only rely on round-robin battles, taking advantage of the fact that there is no specific time interval for general-level challenges, and continuously sending pharaohs to challenge the same great pharaoh for promotion, forcing it to fight multiple times in the shortest possible time, so that its injuries cannot be recovered, and it can always be exhausted to death. Of course, unlike Khufu, the new great pharaoh who returned from a foreign land and had no foundation - he did not belong to any mummy population, and there was no pharaoh who was friendly with him or supported him, the other great pharaohs should control a group of pharaohs to ward off disasters for them, and they could delay time as much as possible by sending other pharaohs to compete for the qualification to advance to the challenge. However, as long as the pharaoh who went to fight was strong and joined forces with me, he would be able to defeat those competitors in the shortest time and not let the great pharaoh get more breathing space. Anyway, the challenging pharaoh was the protagonist, and as long as he died in battle, even if the promotion challenge failed, I could escape the shroud of the great pharaoh's "pyramid" and he would not insist on killing me.
Before my plan was implemented, Khufu contacted me immediately when I went online again, informing me that it had received a challenge from a pharaoh, which was quite unexpected. What the hell are Jefferson and the others doing? They have already made a decision that is unfavorable to Khufu, restricting its freedom and not allowing it to leave the Lost Continent, and then they sent their pharaohs to challenge it. Are they going to suppress it further? Will they not be satisfied until Khufu is eliminated?
A pharaoh's challenge is almost like sending Khufu to his death when he is in good condition. However, if Jefferson and the others have the same idea as me and plan to drag Khufu down by fighting in a round-robin manner, things will be a bit troublesome. Now I have not conquered a pharaoh yet, and I cannot launch other competitors to participate in the promotion challenge to delay time. According to the rules, as long as Khufu receives the information that the pharaoh is ready to challenge him, he must rush over as soon as possible to accept the application and arrange the challenge. He cannot delay without reason. Even with the power of the "Soul Contract", he cannot forcibly obstruct it. Jefferson, Kurt Haber, Vilenzov and other eleven great pharaohs have obviously reached a consensus on dealing with me and Khufu. They work together. As long as each of them dedicates three or four loyal and fearless pharaohs, there will be thirty or forty of them in total. They can continuously launch promotion challenges. If they all fight to lose both sides, three or five will not be a big problem, but too many will be troublesome. The accumulated injuries are difficult to heal and are getting more and more serious. If they continue, there will always be a time when they can't support it. Moreover, being in the Lost Continent, he can only absorb the dark attribute of Yin Qi through the "Pyramid", which has limited effect on the recovery of Khufu's injuries, which is even more disadvantageous. I am afraid that I can only be involved, and I have to stay by his side to use the "Soul of the Dead" to help him, and compete with Jefferson and others in patience. In this way, although Khufu will not be in any danger, I will inevitably delay a lot of time, affecting my own development, and will also hinder the plan to seize the position of another great pharaoh, and fall into an unfavorable passive situation.
Arrange Khufu to accept the pharaoh's challenge as soon as possible. If no other competitors appear within the stipulated time limit of 12 hours, the challenge will officially begin. As I guessed, the pharaoh was really desperate, just wanting to hurt both sides and cause as much damage to Khufu as possible. Khufu had just become the great pharaoh and was not familiar with many functions of the newly acquired "pyramid" and its application in actual combat, which also gave his opponent more opportunities to take advantage of. However, the opponent's strength was not as good as Khufu's when he was the pharaoh before, and he was fighting away from home in the "pyramid", so naturally he had no hope of winning. In the end, he died tragically at the hands of Khufu, and was unable to cause serious damage to Khufu. Unfortunately, even if I defeated the challenging pharaoh, I was able to forcibly subdue these lower-level ninth-level undead, but the promotion challenge and the related qualification battles were a system-specific fair duel mode. The pharaohs who came to challenge had no followers to protect them, which was equivalent to automatically delivering themselves to the door, greatly reducing the difficulty. Therefore, I could not take the opportunity to sign a "soul contract" with the defeated ones. Otherwise, I could easily subdue more pharaohs by challenging them again and again. However, not long after it failed, Khufu received news again that the second pharaoh who applied for the promotion challenge appeared.
Using the "Soul of the Dead", I easily healed Khufu from the damage caused by the first pharaoh's desperate fighting style, so that it could squeeze out time to find out the details of the mummy clan, and then killed the second pharaoh who challenged for the promotion without any accident. But then the third and fourth appeared... showing an endless trend. It is certain that what happened before is definitely planned by Jefferson and his team behind the scenes, intending to deal with Khufu and me in a round-robin manner. Although the combination of "Touch of Death" and "Soul of the Dead" is destined to make their plot fail and only cost more pharaohs' lives, these self-righteous pharaohs should not imagine that I have such ability and will continue until I can no longer afford the loss of the pharaoh. As long as they do not stop such promotion challenges, Khufu and I will have to spend time and ability to deal with them, and will not have more time to develop and improve our own strength, or to carry out other plans. I never expected that Jefferson and the others would be so afraid of Khufu and me. Not only did they issue a ban on leaving the Lost Continent, they also took the initiative and continued to pursue us relentlessly, refusing to let Khufu gain a foothold and get a chance to develop. The eleven pharaohs joined forces to deal with Khufu and me. They had the advantage of time, place, and people. The method of fighting in shifts seemed even more vicious in their hands, and was far more convenient and effective than it was for me. It almost pissed me off to death. If it wasn't for helping Khufu become a more powerful pharaoh, I really wanted to mobilize the army of bone dragons to kill Jefferson, Vilenzov, and the others directly.
Although the situation was passive, I certainly would not just accept it and let Jefferson and the others manipulate me. I helped Khufu deal with the challenges of promotion that came one after another, treated his injuries in time, and kept him in the best condition every time he went out to fight, so as to undermine Jefferson and the others' confidence. At the same time, I used the intervals between two challenges to let Khufu learn as much as possible about the other pharaohs and determine the targets to be conquered. Weak ones were not worth my time. If the pharaohs who partnered with me did not have a certain level of strength, it would be difficult for them to pose too much of a threat to the Great Pharaoh . The army of bone dragons was also ready and could attack at any time, invade the territory of the mummies, and defeat and conquer the pharaohs hidden in it.
During this period, no new giant magician population has arrived at the holy land "Karamayi" for worship. The combination of Yibo La and Wuji has been searching for other traces of the Undead Ghost Phoenix, but there is still no result for the time being. If it were not for the "Soul Contract" to suppress it, Yibo La should have been unable to restrain his instinctive desire and would have begun to evolve into a high-level Destruction Knight. The Wu Ma that I kept in captivity has also developed smoothly. Staying in the territory of the bone giant, with the bone dragon guarding nearby, there is no problem with safety. The supply of dark attribute and earth attribute energy is also very sufficient. I believe it will not take too long to evolve into an intermediate Destruction Knight. It's a pity that Yibo La is now busy looking for the Undead Ghost Phoenix and focusing on his own evolution. If he can successfully evolve into a high-level Destruction Knight, it would be more helpful for his development if he has time to guide Wu Ma.
There has been no changes in the "Hell Volcano" for the time being, and everything is going on normally. It is unlikely that Kekexili, Guben and Silando will evolve in a short period of time. What puzzles me is that Taotao has evolved into an intermediate-level eighth-level Fire Dragon Beast for such a long time, but it is still in the growth stage of accumulating energy. I don't know when it can evolve to a higher level. It seems that its appetite this time is particularly large. Could it be that it intends to evolve directly into a Hell Dragon in one go?
The development within the "Dead Space" temporarily fell into a stagnant stage, and no further breakthroughs were made. However, good news finally came from the human world. With the unremitting efforts of Xue Wuxia and Afeng, they first obtained the support of Long Xingtianxia and Qing Wu Feiyang, and then worked together to persuade Dame Feiying and Qiu Shui Changtian. After analyzing the pros and cons and weighing the gains and losses, after some bargaining, they finally convinced the two of them and agreed to launch another "Dark Crusade" against Hua Mantian's Huadu Mercenary Group.
The leaders of the major factions have reached a consensus. The proposal to fight Huadu again was naturally passed by the Dark Council and approved for implementation. The purpose of this time is to prepare to completely destroy Huadu. Compared with the last time, we must be more cautious. We can't use 10,000 people against 10,000 people. After all, the attack and defense battle in the council hall determines the outcome of the team battle. At that time, we may face elites headed by top light players such as Supreme Honor, Holy Heaven, and Real Madrid. The attack and defense attributes of both sides have increased or decreased by 40%. At least more than three or four times the strength and more attack time are needed to have a greater chance of capturing the council hall. Of course, we can't mobilize too many people. If we invest too much, it will be easy for Supreme Honor to confirm the true purpose of our resistance alliance. Once we fight with all our strength and launch a general mobilization, it will increase the difficulty of our successful destruction of Huadu. If we can make Hua Mantian and others not fully prepared and create an illusion that we don't have enough strength to destroy them, we should have a greater chance of achieving our goal. Therefore, the agreed number of players to enter Huadu Station was 25,000, and Huadu could only fight with 25,000 players in the station. Huadu Station had been rebuilt, and its fortifications were more complete and its protection capabilities were further strengthened. Only 15,000 people were sent out, and we still did not have an advantage in the number of people participating in the main attack. It seemed that we were more confident in flattening all the buildings in the station, and it did not seem that we were planning to destroy Huadu. With more undead wizards participating in the battle inside the station, relying on continuous summoning, it was also convenient to open a safe passage, establish a defensive position, resist Huadu's counterattack, and cover our direct attack on the meeting hall.
Twenty-five thousand against twenty-five thousand, in fact, it is quite risky, but no matter how hard Wuxia and Afeng work, they even revealed the secret of the "Death Field" I have, which can eliminate the influence of the increase and decrease attributes on me and my subordinates, and can play a greater role at the critical moment. The Desert Eagle and Qiu Shui Changtian still used the excuse that the risk of completely destroying Huadu was too great, and resolutely refused to invest more group battle deposits and related expenses. It is said that Huadu has invested a large amount of funds to apply some newly emerged defensive formations to enhance the defense capabilities of the meeting hall. The longer the delay, the more difficult it will be for our attack. Moreover, there are rumors in "Tianxia" that the prop "Prince Order", which is necessary to establish a super mercenary group of 50,000 people, may soon be released. I don't know how it will appear, whether it will be released for open competition or killed by holy beasts or even dropped by divine beasts. If Hua Mantian gets it, Huadu will be more difficult to conquer. In order to deal a heavy blow to Hua Mantian as soon as possible, and not give Huadu more time and opportunities to develop, and to facilitate this plan, we can only reluctantly accept the condition of 25,000 participants. Fortunately, although Da Mo Feiying and Qiu Shui Changtian have the intention to cause us some trouble, the proposal to fight Huadu again was proposed by me alone to the Dark Council, even if it failed. The main responsibility will be borne by me, and there will be no direct impact on Xue Wuxia, Afeng, Long Xing Tianxia, and Qingwu Feiyang. Anyway, with my strength, it is not too difficult to earn more merits to make up for it. It should be possible to return to the Dark Council in a few months without too much trouble. Moreover, once the plan succeeds it will also bring them considerable benefits, and they should not be so unproductive as to hold us back from behind.
Without further ado, in order to avoid leaks and give Huadu more time to prepare in advance, we immediately began to implement the decision after making it. According to the number of people assigned to each faction, the players who would attack Huadu were quickly selected, 250,000 of whom were responsible for fighting outside the garrison, and 25,000 of whom were expert players who would attack the garrison. After the list of participants was compiled and confirmed, Tongxinmeng immediately came forward and submitted an application to the Mercenary Union for a group battle against the Huadu Mercenary Group, paying a huge group battle deposit. The system issued a notice, and the 12-hour group battle countdown officially began.
Hua Mantian is the Vice President of the Light Senate. Facing the active provocation of our resistance alliance, just like last time, he still received the full support of the Light Church. With the experience and lessons of the previous "Dark Crusades", the Light Senate has also established a corresponding contingency plan. After receiving the news, it quickly responded. According to the intelligence of the insider, in a very short time, it assembled almost all the masters of the Light profession and rushed to Huadu for support. Among the reinforcements, there are naturally a group of masters of neutral professions led by Yamato Spirit, who are either inclined to the Light Church or have personal friendships with Hua Mantian and others. What surprised us was that the member of the Neutral Alliance Joint Conference, the swordsman Lost World who holds the artifact "Holy Cloak", actually joined Huadu and participated in the defense of the garrison, and wanted to openly confront us. Although he had informed our Tongxin League in advance because of his sensitive identity, claiming that he was only helping to defend the base voluntarily for the sake of his friendship with Hua Mantian, and that it did not involve his own position, and that he had no intention of intervening in the struggle between the two camps of light and darkness, no matter what the reason was, participating in the war was an indisputable fact. Having a top player with a divine weapon as an opponent in the meeting hall would naturally be more disadvantageous to us. Moreover, the deeper issue was the attitude and position of the Neutral Alliance. Did it imply that they were somewhat inclined towards the Church of Light? We could not directly question the Lost World. All we could do was for Long Xingtian to solemnly question the Chairman of the Neutral Alliance Joint Conference, the Fearless Warrior, in the name of the Resistance Alliance, hoping that the Neutral Alliance could give us a reasonable explanation for this action of the Lost World that could easily lead to misunderstanding.
The four players, Supreme Honor, Holy Heaven, Olympia, and the Lost World, hold a total of five artifacts, which is not inferior to our resistance alliance. Real Madrid, Angels in the World and other top players of light also fought, and the overall strength has exceeded the last time. There are also 250,000 players stationed outside the Flower City, and 25,000 inside the station. The total number of participants on both sides has reached 550,000, and most of them are masters. This should be the largest group battle in "Tianxia" so far. Fortunately, under normal circumstances, it is almost impossible to win the attack and defense battle of the Council Hall with the same number of main attackers as the defenders. It depends on whether our strategy of confusing the enemy can be effective, so that Hua Mantian and Supreme Honor can infer that our goal is still to completely destroy the buildings in the station. According to this judgment, we will arrange the defense focus in the station, so that we can break through their defense line as quickly as possible and reach the Council Hall before we can buy more time to launch a strong attack on the Council Hall.
