Chapter 264 War

Su Lun asked people to return to the territory and start producing weapons. It may be a little late to start production now. They can make as much as they can now.

The creatures in the shadow world are not endless. If the main plane suppresses the shadow world, the lord of the shadow world cannot occupy the main plane even if he unifies the entire shadow world.

Now it's all about attrition and seeing which side can last longer, which side will be more likely to win.

They discussed for a while, and the Phoenix King said: "Let's work together to guard all exits. It should be difficult for the monsters in the shadow world to spread out through this passage."

There are several exits to this kingdom controlled by the Shadow Realm, and it would take a lot of manpower and material resources to guard them all.

Su Lun stepped forward and said: "My territory has just developed and I can't help much. Why not give me an exit to defend alone."

He wouldn't be able to help if he got involved with the high elves, and guarding only one of the passages would give him the best advantage.

The Phoenix King nodded and said: "Okay, there is a remote passage to the west. There should not be many shadow creatures passing there. You can go and guard there. If there is a problem, you can inform us in advance and we will send troops there for reinforcements."

Both he and the lizardmen have enough large troops, and Su Lun's manpower is not enough. But now they need to gather all the power of the main plane to fight against the Shadow Realm, and they need Su Lun's help.

Su Lun nodded and said before leaving: "I will provide blood crystals as soon as possible."

After he finished speaking, he turned and left the tent. Before leaving here, he observed the situation in front of him.

In front of the army of high elves, tens of thousands of high elves guard this important passage, and on the other side of the passage is the fallen human kingdom.

The dark clouds above the head and the spreading shadow power indicate that the kingdom is hopeless. In the face of such a powerful shadow power, any main plane creature will be affected, especially ordinary humans without any bloodline abilities.

These affected humans will become minions of the Shadow Realm and launch attacks on the main plane together with the Shadow Realm creatures.

Now the whole kingdom has become a living hell.

Although the shadow creatures have no intention of attacking now, this situation will not last long.

Su Lun left immediately, and he found that there were still large armies coming from behind. They were huge armies of lizard people.

"I don't know how long this war will last." Su Lun sighed in his heart. The invasion of the shadow world will have a great impact on him, but he can also take advantage of the opportunity to get a lot of benefits, but it is more dangerous.

Su Lun returned to his territory. Now that everyone in the territory is involved in production, and with the help of the red team who have merged with blood in the territory, the production speed will be much faster.

He came to the manufacturing area, where a large amount of purified steel was re-melted and used to make new weapons.

"Sir, we have made the first batch of weapons according to the drawings you provided, please take a look."

Barton took Su Lun and walked to the side. There were many heavy barrels placed there, which looked like artillery. There were about a hundred of them.

Su Lun nodded. He had been designing weapons for this world a long time ago. The weapons designed in this world can utilize the power of blood, so many things can be ignored in terms of weapons.

For example, if you have the bloodline ability, you don't need to consider the issue of loading ammunition. You can directly use the ammunition created by the bloodline ability.

Just like Su Lun can condense spherical ice crystals out of thin air, which can be directly used as cannonballs, the same is true for other bloodline abilities.

The only thing that needs to be considered for these shells is that they need enough kinetic energy, and the kinetic energy can be compensated by goblins.

The temperature generated by the goblin will bring strong pressure, and when this pressure is released, the cannonball can be launched.

In order to reduce the production process and speed up the production of weapons, Su Lun currently only designs kinetic energy weapons. As for those very powerful weapons, he can only do it slowly.

He said to Patton: "Take people immediately to transport these turrets to the west. That is the area we are responsible for. We must move quickly."

He said that he also joined in the transportation.

Under his bloodline ability, three ice birds appeared in the sky. These three ice birds were huge in size. Each one grabbed a turret and flew to the west.

On the important passage to the west, Su Lun quickly arrived here by flying.

This is a canyon, and there are no exits around it except this canyon. He just needs to hold on here.

There were already high elves guarding here, and Su Lun stepped forward to complete the handover. Because of the Phoenix King's order, they quickly rushed to another location, and this place was handed over to Su Lun for defense.

Suellen placed the turret above the canyon and pointed the muzzle at the distant kingdom.

This canyon seems easy to defend and difficult to attack, but it is best to eliminate the shadow creatures before they reach the canyon. Otherwise, after entering the canyon, if an accident occurs and the shadow creatures rush out, the consequences will be disastrous.

Su Lun is now standing at the top of the canyon. The entire canyon is like a vertical cliff with a wide passage in the middle.

Because this passage is too big, otherwise he could directly block it so that the creatures in the shadow world have no chance to get out from here.

Now he can only set up turrets on both sides of the canyon because there are too few manpower. These weapons and people with blood abilities have become his best helpers.

Various weapons were shipped over one after another. Fortunately, the Shadow Realm still did not launch an attack. Su Lun took advantage of this time to arrange all the defense lines and set up the camp.

More than a hundred turrets are all facing the kingdom on the other side of the canyon. These turrets have only undergone simple testing and have not been put into actual combat. The effect will not be known until after the battle.

"Sir, I wonder what we are waiting here to defend against?" Barton asked from the side.

He had been following Suellen's orders, but he didn't yet know what was going on here.

But the scene ahead made him feel a little breathtaking. The sky ahead was filled with dark clouds, the land was lifeless, there was not even a sound of wind, and the trees were all dry and terrifying.

No one has ever seen this happen.

Su Lun explained: "Our enemies are creatures from the shadow realm. If these shadow realm creatures break out of this kingdom and spread outside, we may be turned into mindless monsters by these shadow realm things."

He found that Barton didn't understand this at all, and even if he said it, it would be useless. Only when he actually sees the shadow creatures will he understand what the shadow creatures are.

This also made him understand a problem. Most of his men have never been exposed to shadow creatures, and they may encounter problems after encountering shadow creatures.

When Su Lun thought of this, he was prepared for the possibility of someone escaping. Not everyone could persevere in front of a large number of shadow creatures.

Now that these people don't know the situation, there is no need for him to remind them. Letting these people know the horror of shadow creatures too early will only make these people shake their minds, and some people may escape before the defense begins.

Su Lun waited patiently above the canyon. These shadow creatures have occupied the entire kingdom, and they will launch an attack when the time is right.

If it weren't for the lack of manpower, he would have sneaked into this controlled kingdom to see what was going on with these shadow creatures.

At night, the sun in the sky slowly disappeared in the distance, and the surrounding area became completely dark.

Everyone lit torches, but the brightness of the torches was obviously not enough. Su Lun sent people back to transport some luminous monsters.

This is a floating glowing monster that looks like a firefly and turns into a big ball of light at night.

Because Su Lun raised a lot of these monsters, the brightness produced by a large number of monsters was enough to light up an entire camp.

Su Lun himself has the ability of night vision. He can see things as clearly at night as during the day. He brought the reflective monsters just for the convenience of his subordinates. Not everyone has the ability of night vision like him.

Except for the canyon where they were, it was still dark in the distance, and there were only withered trees on the desolate land.

After a long time, Su Lun finally noticed some movement.

Far ahead of him, a red light appeared in the dark sky.

Although he couldn't see what these red lights were here, he could guess that those were the fires caused by the battle, and the battle had already begun on the other side.

That side was the direction where the Phoenix King was stationed. Judging from the intensity of the fire, the battle must have been very fierce.

This was a high elf flying over from a distance. The high elf found Suellen and said to him: "The east side is being attacked by a large number of shadow creatures. You should prepare for battle as soon as possible."

Su Lun nodded when he heard this, and said: "There has been no attack here yet, so don't worry about it for the time being."

After getting the news, the high elf returned immediately, and he still needed to take the news to other places.

Su Lun frowned and looked at the fire in the distance. The army of the Shadow Realm had already begun to move.

Because of the fire, those who were dozing woke up and increased the number of patrols.

This is a canyon that is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Moreover, there are many mountains behind the canyon. Creatures from the shadow world need to pay a high price if they want to get out from here. Even if they get out from here, they will still have to face mountains that are difficult to move forward. Before, you could regroup your troops and surround the opponent.

No one with normal ideas would send out large troops to attack here, but there are exceptions to everything. They must make all preparations before the enemy attacks.

At this moment, some shaking shadows appeared in the withered forest in front of the canyon.

These shaking shadows were so densely packed that it was difficult to tell what they were in the darkness of the night, but they could not escape Su Lun's eyes. The Broken Eye bloodline on his body was not a decoration.

Su Lun ordered loudly: "Load the flares and aim the muzzle two hundred meters ahead."

Upon receiving his orders, the turrets were immediately loaded with flares.

"put!"

Su Lun roared, and the steel behind the turret instantly turned red. The internal pressure was instantly released, and a cannonball the size of a human head was fired at the wriggling shadows in front.

There are goblins living behind the turret, and these goblins will provide endless power to the turret.

"Bang!"

With a huge explosion, the flare flying in the air suddenly exploded, and countless fragments flew out of the flare and landed on the ground.

The inside of the flare is made of materials that can burn for a long time. All these fragments burn, and a large area around it is completely illuminated.

There are a large number of weird-shaped creatures around the flames. These creatures have a characteristic. Their whole bodies are covered with black mist. They are all creatures from the shadow world.

The flare completely exposed the whereabouts of the shadow creatures, and the shadow creatures were also recorded, making sharp roars.

A group of shadow creatures screamed and rushed towards the canyon, surrounded by powerful shadow forces.

As they advanced, the shadow forces also spread rapidly.

These shadow creatures scared the people on the canyon. Because it was night, they could not see clearly, but they could guess from the strange appearance and screams of these creatures that these were definitely not simple creatures.

Patton, as the commander here, saw the position of the monsters and immediately shouted: "Prepare bows and arrows!"

Although the people around were afraid, they still picked up the bows and arrows in their hands and shot at the monsters.

The remaining bloodline inheritors were also looking for opportunities to attack.

Arrows fell from the sky like raindrops, and the shadow creatures on the ground dodged left and right, but still could not escape from the rain of arrows. Most of them were shot by bows and arrows and fell to the ground.

There were not many shadow creatures, and only a few survived the rain of arrows.

However, Su Lun would not keep these shadow creatures, and the surviving shadow creatures were also killed.

After following for a while, the surroundings returned to a peaceful state. Only the corpses in front of the canyon indicated that the creatures from the Shadow World had been here.

After Su Lun made sure that no creatures from the Shadow World followed him out, he jumped down the canyon and came to the corpses of these creatures from the Shadow World.

He was very familiar with these creatures from the Shadow World. Most of them were Shadow World worms, and there were also low-level creatures such as Shadow World Demon Wolves.

These creatures were cannon fodder in the Shadow World. They suddenly appeared here because they went in the wrong direction, or it was possible that the lord of the Shadow World was going to send a team of men to investigate the situation.

The loss of these cannon fodders that can be seen everywhere in the Shadow World will not cause any impact, but Su Lun exposed part of his strength because of this battle.

The opponent is likely to use these cannon fodders to spy on their strength.

Su Lun passed these corpses and looked at the withered forest in front. If the lord of the Shadow World really targeted this place, the next wave of attacks should come soon.

He sneered and thought in his heart: These creatures from the Shadow World all carry blood, and each corpse can extract a blood crystal. The blood crystal can give people blood abilities. As long as there is no general attack, the more such tests come, the better.

Su Lun smiled. The Lord of the Shadow Realm might not know this. He could extract the blood of these Shadow Realm creatures at any time.
