Chapter 40: Strong Enemy
After Zhou Tian annexed the territory of the Skeleton Clan, the strength of the orcs in his clan had already made considerable progress. However, firstly, the orcs had not yet completely digested the gains of this time, and secondly, the strength of those immortal monsters was indeed strong. In the end, according to the situation at that time, the orcs under Zhou Tian were directly at a disadvantage shortly after the war started.
It can even be said that with the strength of the orcs under Zhou Tian, when they faced the immortal monsters head-on, they actually ended up losing at once. The difference in strength between the two sides is too big. If most of the orcs under Zhou Tian’s orcs under Zhou Tian’s ability are about 12 to 20 levels, then the strength of the immortal monsters at that time was the weakest and reached the level 20 level.
In this way, when the strength of both sides was not equal, Zhou Tian's orcs were naturally easily defeated by the other party. In the end, the second floor of the skeleton cave, which had been occupied, fell directly into the other party's hands because of the invasion of those immortal monsters.
Even if it weren't for the fact that there were not many immortal monsters that appeared at that time and the orcs under Zhou Tian were defeated by their lives, then what Zhou Tian left behind would be less simple than the second floor of a skeleton cave.
As a result, when Zhou Tian learned about the relevant information, he did not hesitate at all, but rushed to the skeleton cave as soon as possible.
For Zhou Tian, the situation he encountered was undoubtedly something he did not want to see. After all, before that, Zhou Tian had already had a rough plan for the development of his own power. He acted according to the plan, not to mention how far he could go, Zhou Tian was also confident that he would definitely develop the power in his hands much stronger than he is now.
However, Zhou Tian never expected that just when he thought everything was under control, such a change would happen. Now, the appearance of those immortal monsters not only slapped him in the face, but if something bad was wrong, Zhou Tian knew that his current power might fall into the hands of others.
Since the Blood Moon Master and the Lord Huangquan are not in the way, then the immortal monsters may treat them as enemies. Zhou Tian and the Skeleton Clan were originally members of the same camp and could attack the other party. When those immortal monsters faced him, a person with the strength below them, there was naturally no reason not to attack.
But now that things have come to this point, Zhou Tian knew that no matter how regretted he regretted it, it would be useless. Therefore, when he arrived at the Skeleton Cave, Zhou Tian was completely calmed down halfway. Finally, when he reached the entrance to the second floor of the Skeleton Cave, he did not rush to counterattack, but calmly started to make arrangements at that time.
What layout?
With Zhou Tian's strength, he naturally knew that he could not be the opponent of those immortal monsters. With the opponent's strength superior and there was a backup, Zhou Tian never thought about fighting hard with the opponent from the beginning. Maybe Zhou Tian would compete with them in the future, but before his strength reached that level, when facing the threat of those immortal monsters, Zhou Tian could do only one thing at that time, that was to order the entrances of the first to second floors of the skeleton cave to be sealed.
"Take it for me!" With Zhou Tian's order, a team of half-orc warriors under Zhou Tian held up a stone with a diameter of half a meter high and threw it towards the entrance from the first to second floors of the skeleton cave.
A large number of stones continued to fall, and some members of the orcs and the immortal monsters who were fighting at that time were naturally inevitably killed and injured. It is obvious that Zhou Tian's actions did not have any impact on both sides. The orcs were unable to leave because of Zhou Tian's order, and those immortal monsters seemed to be afraid of death at all. Even though many companions were killed by the stones thrown by Zhou Tian's orc warriors, they still fought with the orcs in front of them as if they had not felt the danger.
Seeing the scene at that time, to be honest, Zhou Tian was really helpless. Although the Skeleton Cave looked ordinary, its interior was quite solid for some reason. Zhou Tian originally planned to destroy the entrance to achieve the purpose of stopping the immortal monsters from continuing to go deeper. However, when Zhou Tian was really going to do that, he was helpless to find that the stone wall of the Skeleton Cave was difficult to destroy. In that case, Zhou Tian had no choice but to order his orcs to transport stones from outside to block the entrance.
However, judging from the actions of the orcs under Zhou Tian, Zhou Tian found that it would be not easy to block the entrance of the skeleton cave according to his plan. If it weren't for the fact that there was no way, Zhou Tian would probably have given up his current actions at this moment.
As a result, even when Zhou Tian issued a death order, even if their current actions did not achieve any results, the orcs under Zhou Tian still threw the stones into the lower entrance piece by piece. In the end, the action lasted for nearly a day. With a large number of stones thrown at the entrance, the first and second floors of the skeleton cave were finally temporarily isolated at that time.
but……
"What's the movement?" Just as Zhou Tian was relieved, he didn't expect that at that time, there were some subtle sounds coming from under the pile of stones. Originally, Zhou Tian just thought that the monster buried below was moving, but as the sound became louder and louder, Zhou Tian had to pay attention to that situation.
"You..." Just as Zhou Tian was about to order a half-orc warrior to see the situation from the gap, he didn't expect that the lower entrance that Zhou Tian had finally blocked had shrunk downwards at that time, and then the stones that had blocked the lower entrance slid into the second floor of the skeleton cave like flowing water.
"What?" Zhou Tian was naturally surprised to see the scene at that time. Then when a large number of stones disappeared from his sight, Zhou Tian understood what was going on at that time.
It turned out that although Zhou Tian used stones to block the lower entrance, the method of blocking the entrance was simple and effective, after the entrance was blocked, the immortal monsters easily thought of ways to deal with it.
Zhou Tian could let the orcs transport the stones from outside and block them on the second floor of the Skeleton Cave. However, those immortal monsters could use human power to remove the stones from where they were originally waiting.
As a result, just when Zhou Tian thought he had successfully blocked the immortal monsters on the second floor of the skeleton cave, the immortal monsters moved the stones brought in by the orc warriors under Zhou Tian. At that time, all the calculations Zhou Tian had made before were naturally empty.
