Hum—Hum—Hum—
On the city walls, within the fortress, streaks of heavenly light descend, revealing the figures of Tianyuan’s elite warriors.
The imperial guards swiftly move to the forefront of the city walls and erect their shields.
The archers immediately scout for optimal shooting spots and take their positions.
In the sky, a large blue bird is soaring, its sharp gaze swiftly sweeping over the land, mountains and forests.
Moreover, the heavenly light falls outside the city walls, in the blink of an eye, illuminating a lush forest. The trees within the forest are so large that it would take several people to encircle each one, standing tall and robust, with lush branches and leaves.
This is the Treeman Troops.
Upon Mu Yuan’s signal, a full sixty ancient treemen of the professional level uprooted themselves and rumblingly headed towards the distance. In a moment, they melted into the lush forest near the fortress.
The sun hung high in the sky, a gentle breeze blowing against faces.
The distant forest, the earth, imbued tranquility but also a sense of oppressiveness, as if a storm was coming.
“Here, we will simulate a real battlefield. The environment we are in is more or less the scenario during the Red Fog Tide, where we will be endlessly besieged by the monster tide in our fortress.”
But we must not only hold this fortress, we must also take the initiative to strike, exterminate monster tribes to seize any opportunity for victory.” “Fellow warriors, what do you think?”
Mu Yuan was mainly addressing General Dead Bone, Isloa, Lu Liu, and a few others like Seventeen. As for the other generals? Their reactions were predictable without asking.
Isloa said, “No matter what, intelligence is crucial in any war. Only ample and accurate intelligence can support us in taking the next step. We have the Battle Falcon Army in our territory, which has the ability to share its vision. They can go deep into enemy lines alone and it does not matter if they sacrifice themselves, as long as they can transmit the image back before they die. “Even if only one image can be transmitted back, it is a win for us. This is the advantage of vision sharing.”
Jun: Caw Caw Caw?!
The ones being sacrificed were its beloved brethren!
Oh, this is just a simulation battle, so sacrifice is okay.
For the glory of Tianyuan, we falcons are prepared to perish.
But having intelligence support alone is not enough.
Intelligence is fundamental, but combat power is the essence.
Mu Yuan was well aware that even with his own strength, considered superior to other newcomers, he was not outstanding in this simulated battlefield. On top of that, compared to new stars like Wuji, Kong Ming, and Youshan, he was at a major disadvantage.
This disadvantage was not only reflected in top-tier combat power and army strength, but also in ordinary troops.
This simulated battle was not the same as the challenge of the Red Tower where there were no limits. As a lord, whether you wanted to invest a hundred, a thousand, or ten thousand troops, you could.
As long as you could afford it.
For the veteran lords, who had military buildings and Breakthrough Dojos in their territories, they could easily accumulate thousands of professional warriors over several years.
General Dead Bone pondered for a while, then said, “Perhaps, we need to take some risks. We need to divide our forces and act first, making full use of the mobility of our top forces.”
Lu Liu, Seventeen: “???”
My goodness, did General Dead Bone just use the word ‘risk’? Is that reasonable!
The thought process of General Dead Bone was simple.
If this was reality, he certainly wouldn’t take a risk, but since this was a simulation, it was worth using unorthodox tactics.
Moreover, only by eliminating as many combat points as possible in the early stages and accumulating advantages, can we stand out in the competition for positions.
Otherwise, if the number of combat points was not sufficient and we were wavering on the passing line, wouldn’t that be unstable?
On the contrary, taking risks was a form of stability.
Mu Yuan nodded in agreement. His thoughts were similar to those of General Dead Bone. As for the cost of taking risks, they could afford them. The worst outcome would be elimination, and if that happened, it would only be because they were not as skilled as others.
“But before that, we need to observe the difficulty of defending the city to determine the number of troops to leave for defense.”
After all,
‘Prompt: Loss of the fortress will result in a deduction of 10000 combat points. As time goes by, the number of points deducted will gradually decrease.’ “The monster tide is here!”
Seventeen announced.
In the distance, streaks of red mist began to float in the sky. Underneath the red mist, from within the forest, one monster silhouette after another emerged.
It was the Goblins, a familiar sight to all lords!
However, Goblin is a large category, equivalent to the human race, the dragon race, the undead, with numerous species within. The goblins that emerged this time, besides the Big Goblin, the Goblin Spearman, the Goblin wolf rider, the Goblin Warrior, and other regular individuals, there were also some rare’ones. Burning Goblin! Thunder Goblin! Red Hat Goblin!
Among them, the Red Hat Goblin is a rare two-star monster. They have a small and hunched figure like Little Goblins but move at an incredibly fast speed, making them a type of assassin-like monster.
Ordinary archers can’ t even catch a glimpse of these green figures with a hint of red, let alone shoot at them.
Even if they could keep up and accurately target them, there’s still…
Whoo—!
An arrow was shot from the city wall, spanning a distance of one or two kilometers in an instant. The arrowhead, flickering with specks of starry blue, rapidly enlarged within the eye of a Red Hat Goblin.
Its pupils contracted slightly as the arrow, swift as a shooting star, seemed to gradually slow down. It caught a clear trajectory, raising the two dark red curved blades in its hand. Unless unexpected, it could easily deflect the incoming arrow, displaying the combat style of the Red Hat Goblins.
And yet,
The arrow, nearing its target, was as mischievous and agile as a darting fish, dipping and rising slightly to brush past the dark red curved blade. The sharp arrowhead, coated with an energy armor, directly penetrated the light armor of the Red Hat Goblin, buried itself into its body, and then…
