Chapter 0773 Underground War

Conversation with Kzoyed the Burning Demon is 'pleasant' and 'relaxed'!

When the figure of Pyro in the form of Greem disappeared in the market, a sinister sneer appeared on the ferocious dark red face of Pyro Demon Kzoyed.

"My lord, do you think it is necessary to send someone to follow him?"

Silently, a hazy human-shaped phantom appeared beside Huofenmo. It looked like a short child over 1 meter tall, but its illusory body always gave people a strange and eerie feeling.

Naruto Assassin!

This is a strange creature with a half-demon and half-elemental physique, and it also belongs to a foreign mixed-race species that is not recognized by the local aborigines on the Fire Elemental Plane. Because they are proficient in stealth and assassination, and they are quite agile in doing things, they are often recruited by some powerful beings to serve as assassins and thugs.

"No need! He is now a hot bounty target on the Fire Elemental Plane. We don't need to participate in the personal hunting activities of those idiot lords. It's just a bounty issued by a Tier 2 little lord. It's not worth it for us to offend a Tier 2 for this." wizard!"

"Then we do nothing?"

"That won't work! You still have to get the reward from the little lord. Anyway, as long as you provide the wizard's action trace, you can get 1/3 of the reward. We don't take it for nothing. Go, hurry up and get the human wizard to show up." Tell the little lord's men about the news at the Gaba Bazaar, and tell it that we can provide the magic portrait of the human wizard, and see what price they are willing to pay! Hehe, this kind of risk-free income is what we should most did. We are businessmen now..."

Immediately, the sinister sneer of the burning demon Kezoyed sounded in the market.

The Naruto assassin who has always acted insidiously caused Lingling to shudder, and quickly disappeared and left in a hurry.

After leaving the market, Greem plunged headlong into the sea of ​​flames.

Greem used a chip to record all the terrain information on the Fire Elemental Plane map that Huo Fenmo had provided him, and then discarded it directly. According to the chip detection, there are at least three rather obscure ways of locating items on the sheepskin scroll. If Greem carried it with him, his whereabouts would be completely in the hands of the enemy.

This map is quite rough!

On the above, almost only some approximate place names and the trend of geographical mountains and rivers are marked.

Of course, this is also related to the laziness of elemental creatures.

They have been wandering aimlessly throughout the Fire Elemental Plane since their birth, almost never caring about where they are or what is around them. So they never bothered to name these places, and it was even more impossible for them to take the initiative to draw some detailed maps.

Therefore, according to this map, apart from Greem knowing that the market just now is called Gaba Market, which belongs to a small local public market, the rest of the information is quite vague.

Inside the Fire Elemental Plane, you can see large seas of fire stretching hundreds to tens of thousands of miles almost everywhere. There is nothing inside these seas of fire other than tumbling flames, and even most flame creatures cannot survive in them for a long time.

Only in the cracks between the sea of ​​fire and the sea of ​​fire can it be possible to condense some strange landforms similar to land. And these lands, hills, plains, and volcanoes with fixed forms are the regions and places where flame creatures gather most often.

Many powerful flame groups occupy places where the fire elements are dense, and regard them as their homes or lairs, so a group of completely irregular territories were born.

By comparing the coordinates of the mission plane with this rough map, Greem finally confirmed that the flame lord he wanted to assassinate on this trip lived in a special flame terrain called Dustfire Canyon. There is a full 50,000 miles away from my current location. According to the normal traveling speed, it will take at least a month to get there.

And through various channels, Greem can clearly feel that he is now trapped in a huge vortex of the storm. It seems that a net has been laid there, just waiting for myself to drill into it.

Faced with such a situation, Greem could only delay his progress, turned to another direction, and found a colder place to digest the flame essence.

With the vastness of the Fire Elemental Plane, a Tier 2 flame lord like Artes simply doesn't have that much strength to supervise the surrounding tens of thousands of square kilometers of land. Seriously speaking, Artes' sphere of influence is almost blank outside of Dustfire Canyon.

If you want these free fire elemental subordinates to build an intelligence network to control the surrounding area, I'm sorry, they really can't do such a delicate job!

So as soon as Greem left the Gaba Market, washed away the traces left by himself through the sea of ​​fire, and then got up in a hidden place, even if Artes sent all his men to dig the ground three feet away I want to find traces of Greem again.

Due to the absence of the main character, the bounty and arrest activity that was originally hot and noisy, can't help but slowly cool down!

…………

The Wizarding World, The Scarlet Throne.

At this moment, the lava hall hidden deep in the ground has been densely packed with noble private troops.

These guys from afar brought a large number of craftsmen and servants, and used the inexhaustible wood here to create batches of siege equipment. And now, they are using these siege equipment to advance step by step towards the towering witch tower in the center of the hall.

However, their progress seemed extremely difficult, because there was a more powerful magic weapon army standing in front of them.

The fighting between the two sides has lasted for three days and three nights.

The main attacking noble private army sent a large number of cannon fodder to hold up thick and dense wooden shields, shouting slogans step by step and slowly advancing towards the Wu Tower in rhythm. Behind them, followed by the heavy armored infantry formed by nobles and nobles who spent a lot of money.

These heavy armored infantry were all wearing enchanted heavy armor as thick as two fingers. It looked like an iron can, so that there were hardly any gaps or cracks on the front of the armor. Even the cylindrical helmet on the face was only opened with a small cross-shaped gap.

As an elite unit in the noble private army, this heavy armored infantry is generally equipped with heavy weapons such as maces, flails, and double-sided battle axes. Each of them is a row of ten people, crowded together, looking from a distance like a group of iron walls that can move freely.

And behind them, there are also some archers wearing simple leather armor, carrying longbows, and carrying hatchets. They are not the normal configuration of the private army of nobles, but hunters and mercenaries recruited temporarily.

It stands to reason that such a team configuration is enough for them to face most of the enemies and kill them. Unfortunately, when they were not facing the human army, they were the ones who were slaughtered and devastated.

In front of the Wu Tower, about a hundred or so 3-meter-high metal magic weapons set up a loose defensive front, using the berserk magic energy rifle in their hands to crazily pour metal barrages at the approaching noble private army.

And in front of the battle formation, there are more than 20 spider-type mechanical puppets waiting in full force. They are all 5 meters high, and their spindle-shaped spider bodies, high-hanging spider heads, and giant pincers are all made of complex alloys that shine with magical luster.

Around the metal body, there are four pairs of black and deep metal joints arranged in a patchwork pattern, the ends of which are as sharp as knives. When crawling forward quickly, a light jab can leave tiny triangular holes in the hard lava stone slab.

The main attack weapon of this spider-shaped mechanical puppet is actually a pair of huge chelicer-shaped chainsaws installed on the front of its body. When it knocked open the wooden shield in the front row, and dashed into the crowd with its metal joints, the two huge chelicerated chainsaws let out an ear-piercing roar, cutting dazzling sparks between flesh and steel.

In front of the spider-type mechanical puppet beasts, ordinary human infantry would be chopped off at the waist without even a chance to resist, turning into miserable corpses. The heavy infantry wearing thick armor might be able to resist them for a while, and then gather around them and smash the metal body with their heavy weapons.

As long as the strength is strong enough and the weapon is strong enough, there is still a certain chance of smashing and smashing the magic machinery in the mechanical puppet beast, making it lose its fighting ability.

But at this time, it was also the moment when the mechanical puppet spewed out crimson flames from the mouth of the spider head. Due to the dense density of the enemy and the difficulty of dodging by the heavy armored infantry, whenever the mechanical puppets in the encirclement strode forward while breathing out flames, the terrifying scene of roasting the human body and heating the iron tank was simply unbearable. look straight at.

The mechanical puppets spit out alchemy flames with a temperature as high as one or two thousand degrees, which can be directly turned into scorched bones when they touch the human body. As for the heavy armored infantry, their clothes were ignited in the raging flames, and even the iron plate armor outside their bodies was heated red hot.

On the turbulent battlefield, there were no servants to help them take off their armor that had been burnt into red iron pieces. These heavy armored infantry were scalded to pieces amidst the howling of wolves and howling ghosts, and billowing black smoke billowed from the inside of their armor.

Faced with such a horrific scene, all the nobles and nobles in the rear turned pale with horror, and all turned their eyes to the wizards sitting comfortably at the rear of the team.

With the consent of the high-ranking wizards, official wizards led many apprentice wizards to sneak up on the mechanical puppets that were slaughtering.

With the outbreak of intensive witchcraft, twenty or thirty apprentice-level witchcrafts combined with two or three wizard-level witchcrafts are enough to overthrow the mechanical puppets one by one. Although the mechanical puppet has a layer of anti-magic metal plated on its body, it was inevitably damaged to a certain extent with the outbreak of the battle just now. Now that they are saturated with fire by wizards and apprentices, they will naturally be defeated one after another.

Amidst bursts of thunder, smoke and cannon-like explosions, thick black smoke rose from the bodies of the mechanical puppets, all the limbs suddenly slumped, and the huge metal body collapsed, and it was quickly lost under the blow of the wizard. fighting power.
