Chapter 584: The Oryx and the Gladiator
More than 200 kilometers to the northeast of Huanyu City, a group of 2,000 Spartan warriors, led by the new king Deimos, is attacking a half-antelope territory.
The entourage also included two deputy army commanders, Kratos and Astinos.
The war against the Bronze Dragon Territory has lasted for two days, and this Oryx Territory is the third alien territory destroyed by Deimos and his party.
These half-ortelopes move extremely quickly on the grassland, are dexterous and good at camouflage, and are very good scout races.
Even with the restraint of the Meteor Mountain Cavalry, it brought a lot of trouble to the Spartan Legion.
However, as a member of the half-orcs, the half-orcs cannot move their territory away like the orcs.
As long as they attack their territory directly, the half-ork people scattered everywhere will definitely come to rescue in order to prevent the territory from being destroyed.
Under the investigation of the Shadow of Sparta, Leonidas, the commander of the Eastern Army, quickly determined the location of the Oryx territory, and dispatched three deputy army commanders, Deimos, Kratos and Astinos, Insert into the defense line of the Bronze Dragon's territory, and destroy the powerful semi-antelope territory under the Bronze Dragon's command.
Leonidas led Altes to attack other nearby alien races and the Bronze Dragon's servant army, in order to contain the Bronze Dragon's other dependent army and create time for Deimos and his party's surprise attack.
Compared with the white dragon Ostra's territory occupied by Huang Yu before, the bronze dragon that everyone met now obviously has good governance ability.
It did not occupy all the territories of its own family members, but enslaved the territories of foreign races that did not pose a threat to itself, and asked them to pay "offerings" regularly and obey its orders.
The territories of these alien races remain intact, and although the remaining soul crystals and resources after paying the offerings are not many, they can still develop to a certain extent.
Most importantly, because they are all under the rule of the Bronze Dragon, although there are constant frictions among these alien races, large-scale wars rarely occur.
Under the rule of the Bronze Dragon, the internal friction of the dependent race has become less, and more energy has been devoted to production and development. Although most of the territories are still at the third level, the overall strength is not as good as the territories that survived the war, but the number is large. , but it should not be underestimated.
According to intelligence, this Bronze Dragon Territory ruled fifteen alien territories, large and small!
These alien territories surrounded the Bronze Dragon's territory like pawns, constantly delivering resources to the central Bronze Dragon's territory, and have already fed the Bronze Dragon with a half-dragon guard of 2,000 people!
As the extraordinary arms of the giant dragon family, the half-dragons not only have the strength far stronger than the extraordinary arms of other races, but also possess dragon breath and flying abilities, making them extremely difficult to deal with.
In addition, for some races that are difficult to control or have the risk of betrayal, such as the high-level race rhinoceros, dwarves with excellent forging skills, and the mud giants that are not very strong but extremely difficult to kill, etc., they are all controlled by the bronze dragon. Occupied the territory and kept it in captivity by his side.
The arms of these powerful races were organized by the Bronze Dragon into a servant army of seven to eight thousand, which was also the main force for the Bronze Dragon to expand and maintain its sovereignty.
Now these servants are divided into two, each led by 500 half-dragons.
One fought against the Spartan Legion in the east, and one fought against the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry Legion in the north.
"kill!!!"
Demos brandished his spear and led five hundred Spartan warriors to form a formation outside the Oryx territory, blocking the Oryx rushing from all over and some reinforcements from other races, and preparing for the storming of the city. Kratos and Astinos fight for time.
As long as the half-ork territory is destroyed, their combat mission will be accomplished and they need to evacuate immediately.
Otherwise, they would be in a much more dangerous situation if they were surrounded by the servant army led by the half-dragon people.
A spear was thrown, and the three Oryx were shot through. Deimos turned his head to look at the Half-oryx territory behind him, and shouted:
"What's the situation inside, why haven't Kratos and Astinos occupied the ancestor totem?"
It has been a while since the two entered the city, and according to the plan, the half-antelope territory has already been conquered.
However, there were more and more enemies around him, and the movement in the city was getting smaller and smaller. Judging from the situation, it didn't look like he had encountered an ambush, which made Deimos a little puzzled.
If it weren't for the fact that there were too many enemies in front of him and his hands were too busy, Demos would have taken out the communication crystal and questioned the other two deputy army commanders.
With Deimos at the front, the people behind him exchanged information with a Meteor Mountain Cavalryman and shouted:
"Master Deimos, Lord Kratos, let us hold on for a while!"
"Lord Astinos is fighting the Ork leader."
"They have already occupied the Oryx Castle, and we can evacuate after the gladiatorial fight is over."
Gladiator?
Hearing the report from his subordinates, Demos was puzzled, but also a little angry.
No matter what time it is, they are still wrestling with each other.
This is a battlefield, not an arena!
Although he knew there was a reason for this, Deimos still had a headache.
During this period of getting along, Deimos also knew what kind of person Kratos was.
Unlike other king-level units, Kratos is an extremely pure fighting king with almost no command, but has extremely powerful combat capabilities and is very keen on fighting.
Once in a combat state, Kratos will charge forward on his own until the enemy is completely killed.
In the eyes of Kratos, there is only one tactic to win, and that is to kill all the enemies in front of him.
That's why Leonidas sent him here.
Undoubtedly, as a king-level unit whose combat power is only inferior to Pantheon, Kratos is a very sharp steel knife, and Deimos is the one arranged by Leonidas.
But now, the knife seemed to be out of his control.
"That's fine with Kratos, why is Astinos messing around with him?"
As one of the few people who is a hero and holds the position of deputy army commander, Astinos's qualifications are extremely high even in the entire army.
In this Spartan army of more than 2,000 people, Astinos's command was second only to Deimos.
As long as he is willing, even if Kratos is unwilling, Astinos can lead the army to end the battle immediately, and then rush out of the alien encirclement with him to join the large army.
Just when Deimos was hesitating whether to send someone to urge Kratos and Astinos, a bloody light suddenly flashed across the half-ork territory.
Not long after, the entire Oryx territory began to collapse. Five hundred stonehorn knights broke through barriers and led the remaining 1,000 Spartan warriors out of the Oryx territory.
The half-antelope territory was destroyed.
