Chapter 45 Strategic partner!
(You guys are so powerful! This is the first update today, 4,000 words.)
Dragon Crystal?
Pandora's eyes were filled with stars when she heard this. She looked at Murphy with a longing look, and then lowered her little head dejectedly. Murphy would definitely not be willing to give her such a valuable thing. If a piece of dragon crystal could be added to her collection, the little loli would feel extremely happy when she thought about it. However, now her entire belongings are only three gems.
The Chief Priest of the God of War is a stern and ruthless style. After taking over the tasks assigned by Murphy, he did not need to rest. He directly started to track the direction of the bone dragon with powerful induction. In the Kingdom of Athens, the Chief Priest of any temple has a certain direct connection with the gods he worships, so in some respects they can become a channel for the arrival of the gods, and therefore have part of the power derived from the gods!
There should be no problem with the Priest of the God of War to kill the Bone Dragon. Although this plane cannot directly mobilize the power of the God of War Kratos, the ability of the God-xing bloodline can still be activated.
With his strength, it is not a big problem to solve an injured bone dragon.
……………………
In the early morning, the Chief Priest of the God of War came back.
He suffered a small injury on his left arm, but he brought back an unexpected surprise to Murphy!
"Did you really meet her?" Murphy asked in surprise as he stared at the Chief Priest of the God of War in front of him.
The Chief Priest of the War God's Priest looked expressionless. He nodded and said in a deep voice: "Yes, Governor! She seemed to be injured a little, and is now recovering from a mine cave in the southeast. I felt that she had an aura that did not belong to this plane, so I went to take a look."
Injuried?
Who is it? Who can actually hurt Queen Medusa, who is powerful enough to rival a demigod?
Could it be? Is it the Queen of Pain in the Necromancer's mouth?
After hearing this news, a series of thoughts popped up in his mind, and he couldn't help but think: "The reason why the human coalition decided to recover Zenda at this time was undoubtedly because a battle broke out between two powerful beings within Zenda! Even a large number of demons entrenched here, so that humans discovered many petrified sculptures in Zenda City!"
Who can petrify so many demons?
There is no doubt about it!
Only Queen Medusa who is incredibly powerful and can even petrify energy!
So who can fight her again?
There is no doubt that the one who can fight her is definitely awesome existence. In the territory of Zenda, the only one who is qualified to fight her and can still hurt her is the current demon lord, one of the higher demons, and the legendary "Queen of Pain"!
Although the higher demons are powerful, they are not as good as gods!
Their spiritual hun contains a piece of spiritual hun fragment, and its ability is roughly equivalent to legend or above, around epic, and the cap is the level of a demigod. The existence that can truly compete with the gods is the only master of every level of the abyss, those demon kings! In this way, Murphy's assumption is completely valid, that is, since Queen Medusa is also injured, then the demon lord and the Queen of Pain who are now Zenda may have suffered a lot of injuries!
what does that mean?
This means that on the main battlefield of Zenda, the human coalition forces have the innate advantage!
"If you can injure that perverted Queen Medusa, I'm afraid the Queen of Pain in the mouth of the undead mage is also a demigod!" Murphy mocked his forehead, and couldn't help but think quickly in his heart, thinking about whether he could get more valuable information from this news and then exchange it for something valuable!
Then let’s make a bold assumption!
If the Queen of Pain in Zenda is injured, what would she choose to do when facing such a huge offensive by the Human Alliance?
He and others were ambushed by a demon army in this town, including a high-level undead mage of about ten levels, a powerful bone dragon, and a huge number of undead.
[((The classification of profession levels in the Arcane Empire Age: Level 5 is the intermediate level, Level 10 is the advanced level, Level 15 is the legend, and Level 20 is the epic. If you go up, you will not be in the classification of profession levels.)]
There is no doubt about it!
The Queen of Pain wants to solve Murphy's team in one go, once and for all!
To solve the threat from this team to other parts of the Zenda territory! However, because of the appearance of the magic mecha, her idea was undoubtedly lost. Even with the help of the team of knights, the team in turn annihilated one of her demon legions. In this way, the Queen of Pain undoubtedly lost the initiative and was in a passive defense state.
Zenda is seriously threatened, and towns in various places will face a large number of mercenaries.
In this case, what decision will the Queen of Pain make? Murphy believes that the most likely point is to "abandon the soldiers and protect the generals"! Give up those small and medium-sized towns, shrink the defense line, mobilize the main force in the demon army to defend Zenda Ben City, and then ask for reinforcements to support until the reinforcements arrive! The towns occupied by Murphy's team are at a north-south junction. As long as they are stationed here, it is equivalent to cutting off the connection between Zenda Ben City and nearby towns.
Among the demons, the flying ones are basically mid-level demons.
And it is the more powerful one among the intermediate demons, with a relatively rare number. That is to say, if you want to draw the intermediate demons from towns in various places to return to defense against Zenda, then this is almost a must-pass way!
Because they have to walk back.
"I'm afraid this place will become the second main battlefield besides Zenda City! This little force alone is obviously not enough. I'm afraid there will be reinforcements coming one after another." When Murphy thought of this, he couldn't help but look at the commanders of several large mercenary groups there with sympathy. If this place really became the second main battlefield as he guessed, then there might not be many of these mercenary groups left.
"If the Queen of Pain really decides to shrink her defense and use Zenda Ben as the center of gravity, there is no doubt that other towns on this flank will have empty power."
"In other words, the demonic power guarding the Abyss Gate in these towns must be reduced at least half!"
"The Queen of Pain is likely to draw the intermediate demon back to the main battlefield, but it is impossible to draw all the power back, because she has to divide some of the bait to restrain these mercenaries, otherwise the pressure on Zenda's city will be greater!"
"If half of these speculations are true!" Murphy thought of this, his eyes lit up, full of movement, and said: "Then, there is no doubt that the towns on the flank are now a bunch of fat sheep!"
Fat sheep!
When Murphy thought of this, he seemed a little dejected.
Because he can use too few people in his hands now! Those indigenous mercenaries on the original plane are simply useless, and these people can only use them, which is not worthy of Murphy's trust. But besides these people, there are only twenty-four Spartan conquers, the chief priest of the God of War, and a little loli who is not very obedient and not very useful.
I knew that the defense power in various towns may be empty, and it was a good time to scavenge it, but because of my lack of strength, I could only watch it and feel greedy. This feeling is really bad.
"Have you seen the demon of this plane?" Murphy looked up at the chief priest of the God of War in front of him and asked.
The Chief Priest of the God of War nodded and said in a deep voice: "It's much stronger than the original plane!"
"Are you sure to deal with a few intermediate demons?" Murphy asked after thinking.
The chief priest of the God of War closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then said, "If you deal with it at the same time, about ten or more, you can only ask for divine power to come."
Ten?
Murphy estimated the devil's defense power of this town, and then made some comparisons. The Queen of Pain would definitely draw some of the intermediate demons back to defend, so there would not be too many intermediate demons in other towns. If you just force a breakthrough with an elite force, target the spiritual hun mark stone, and retreat immediately after taking the gate of the abyss, then the combat power should be barely enough.
"Map!" Thinking of this, Murphy said in a deep voice.
The little loli seemed to find it profitable, so she ran over to get the map and delivered it to Murphy with a flattering face.
"You?... want to find something to do?" Murphy glanced at Pandora beside him. The power of this little loli was very strange. Until now, he didn't know how strong she was. But if she was really willing to take action, then her plan might be divided into two parts. He spread out the map, pointed to the nearest towns on the map, and said in a deep voice: "Here! Here! There is also Here!"
"This is the three small and medium-sized towns in the nearest. We have just wiped out the main forces in this large town. There shouldn't be too many demons entrenched here."
"I will give you half a team of Spartan Conquerors each. Your mission is to seize the abyss portals in these three small towns before everyone, and then bring back the spirit hun mark stone. Remember not to fight, and don't get entangled with the enemy. If the number of enemies is too large, then give up! We are short of manpower now and cannot consume our strength here!"
"You must remember one thing! That is, we are here to get the benefits of this battle! We must not do things that cannot be paid!" Murphy said this, glanced at the little loli beside him, and slowly said: "This time, all the mission except the Spirit Hun Seal Stone belongs to you, and I don't need to keep it."
Pandora was shocked when she heard this, and Shui Lingling's big eyes were full of longing.
"You must remember to avoid this place when you act!" Murphy used his hand to draw a circle in another medium-sized town on the map, with a serious expression and said in a deep voice: "This town has a very special geographical location, and it is just right at the same time as here. I am worried that there will be a large number of demons there, and there may be powerful demons stationed there, so we will give up all the places near that town!"
The town Murphy refers to happened to be at the intersection of a river, and it was also a turning point. Murphy was worried that there would be a large-scale demon legion there.
The little loli pointed his little head well and showed that she understood.
"Governor! If we take all the Spartan conquerors away, then you..." The Chief Priest of the God of War looked at Murphy and spoke.
There is no doubt that Murphy's safety is the most important thing for him.
Pandora was also thoughtful when she heard this. She had been staying by Murphy's side, not that she had no intention of protecting him. After all, his relationship with the Olympus god system was already inseparable.
"I'm fine." Murphy smiled and said, "I was not alone before. Whether I can succeed this time affects whether we can stand firm in this plane, and more importantly, when we can connect with the Kingdom of Athens."
"This is the key! There can be no mistakes!"
Speaking of this, Murphy thought for a while and then continued, "Besides, I want to meet the Queen Medusa alone. After all, I come from the same plane, so I don't think she will do anything to me."
"If we can fight for her, it will be much easier for us to be in this plane."
That could be a demigod who can fight with the Queen of Pain. Even the high priest may not be her opponent. If such a powerful ally can be brought into her camp, then Murphy will have much easier to do. To meet the Queen Medusa, Murphy actually has some things related to the auxiliary system and the laws of the world to talk to her, and it is not suitable to bring too many people over.
If you want to win over this powerful Queen Medusa, you will certainly not be able to attract her attention. Murphy must be able to produce something of sufficient value and weight!
……………………
At dawn.
The half of the Spartan Conquerors sent by Murphy before entering the Mercenary City was also back.
As a result, Murphy was all in his hands. He no longer hesitated and directly asked the Chief Priest of the God of War and Pandorago to set off with half a team of Spartan conquerors, while he himself waited until dawn to advance with the indigenous mercenaries. After taking the town in this battle, the various mercenary groups were going to part ways. The mercenary groups had their own tasks, and the towns were scattered everywhere and needed to act separately.
The mission Murphy accepted was relatively remote, but it was not far from where Queen Medusa recovered from her injuries, so she rushed over all the way.
The purpose of the town he chose in his mission is to be inconspicuous, and the key point is to have strategic value and potential. As for the resource issue, as long as it can be connected with the Kingdom of Athens, he can completely draw enough materials from the Kingdom. Originally, the entire southern plains have fallen into his hands. With the material and financial resources of a race, it is still more than enough to draw resources to build a large city!
The most important thing now is that Queen Medusa...
