Chapter 465: Troops Enter the Field
In Ice Stone City, the dwarf king stood in front of the frozen camp. Other rune mechas and the dwarf soldiers who were mobilized again were working hard to destroy the iceberg in front of them.
However, the effect of destruction is not very obvious. Neither the dwarf soldiers nor the rune mechas can leave permanent wounds on the iceberg. As soon as some ice is cut, the iceberg will quickly grow again, and the gap will be reopened. Supplement it.
At the same time, the surface of the huge iceberg is also constantly dissolving, continuously releasing endless cold air and water elements to the surroundings.
The temperature of the entire Ice Stone City began to drop.
The dwarf king looked at the iceberg in front of him, sensing the growing power deep in the iceberg, and his face became increasingly ugly.
He looked at the rune mecha driven by the dwarf guard's cronies, and through the rune mecha's rune array, the voice was secretly transmitted to his ears.
"Return to the palace and be prepared to wake up the Ice Guards. Once I lose any signs of life or receive my order, wake up all the Ice Guards immediately."
After hearing the words of the dwarf king, the dwarf guard nodded slightly, then took a few steps back, disappeared, and quickly ran towards the palace.
After he left, the dwarf king also looked at the iceberg again and stood calmly on the spot.
The dwarf soldiers who had entered the camp before had been completely wiped out and were all frozen in the iceberg in front of them. The dwarf army suffered heavy losses.
In this case, as the dwarf king, he needs to sit here to appease people's hearts.
On the eaves next to the camp, Hela appeared next to Gray Crow. Then, after she said a word, she leaped away from here.
"Gray Crow, keep an eye on this side of the camp. If there are any signs of the passage being opened, notify me immediately."
After saying that, Hela quickly moved on the roof, and finally landed in a corner not far from the camp, and quickly arranged a simple space door.
After quickly setting up a simple but stable and safe space door, Hela took a look at the communication equipment, and while the soldiers were still gathering, she began to prepare means to suppress the camp's passage.
As a spellcaster proficient in necromancy, Hela also has its advantages.
Compared to Roland, who is proficient in all spells and therefore not very fond of using necromancy, Hela does not have so many choices. She is only proficient in necromancy, dark element spells, life spells, and positive and negative energy spells. .
Due to Hela's own talent and the feedback and blessing after the contract with Gray Crow, as well as Hela's death authority, her current highest attainments are necromancy, dark element spells and negative energy spells.
In addition, due to the presence of the inner ghost Gray Crow, it is easier for Hela to enter and exit the dark elemental world after being promoted to the high level. Therefore, Hela strikes hard in the dark elemental world. Counting the high-level undead he controlled before, Hela Ra now controls a total of ten high-level undead.
Hela immediately started to set up the undead summoning circle, preparing to bring these ten high-level undead to the material world to help fight.
After quickly completing the undead summoning circle, Hela saw that there was no news on the communication device and began to pre-cast the spell.
This is the high-level spell-casting skill that Roland passed on to her. Prepare the spell in advance and place it in your body. When needed, you can directly skip the casting time and cast the spell quickly.
When Hela prepared the eleventh high-level spell in her body, news finally came from the communication device.
Hela stopped what she was doing, stretched out her hand, injected magic power into the space door, and opened it. Then, a legion commander led a thousand-man team through the space door quickly.
Naturally, the small corner was not enough for these thousand people to squeeze in here. Therefore, the legion commander and the legionnaires walked out of the street directly and gathered in an uninhabited open space outside the street.
The legion commander saluted Hela and asked.
"Commissioner Hela."
Hela returned the greeting, then she looked up at the iceberg side of the camp and asked directly.
"The passage to the Water Elemental Realm in Ice and Stone City is about to open. Please be clear about your mission."
"Understood, after the space channel is opened, all elemental life forms born in Ice Stone City will be cleaned up."
The legion commander quickly replied,
Hela nodded slightly and said.
"Time is running out. I will leave the rest of Ice Stone City to you. I won't do any micro-management. Let's take action."
The legion commander saluted, then turned and ran towards the thousand-man team in the open space, and quickly completed the distribution. Afterwards, the thousand-man team was divided into groups of two or three people, divided into hundreds of small teams, and quickly dispersed to all parts of Ice Stone City. .
Compared with Roland's side, the Frost Forge has prepared positions in advance. It is impossible for water elemental life forms to enter the real world until the positions are destroyed.
But Ice and Stone City is different. Since there is no position arranged in advance, even if it is just a small passage, Hela cannot block all the elemental life forms.
Hela can block at most mid-to-high-level elemental life forms and most low-level elemental life forms. There will definitely still be a few low-level elemental life forms that escape.
Moreover, under the condition of high element concentration, under the power of the rules of the water elemental world, new low-level elemental life forms may be born all over Ice and Stone City.
It is impossible for Hela to have the energy to deal with these elemental life forms, so soldiers need to deal with them.
And before that.
At the Gate of the Far North, as the new order was issued, the space mages in the territory opened the space gate from the foot of the mountain to the Gate of the Far North. More than 30,000 soldiers quickly gathered at the Gate of the Far North through the space gate.
More than 30,000 soldiers stood neatly and uniformly on the open space of the Far North Gate according to their respective organizations. 30,000 strange machine armors flashed sharp cold light under the strange machine lights, like a connected cold steel Great Wall.
Scattered snowflakes fell from the sky, and more than 30,000 extraordinary soldiers were like furnaces. The snowflakes kept melting as they fell. When they landed lightly on the strange machine armor, they turned into cold ice water flowing through the surface of the armor.
The soldiers stood still in place, and officers at all levels shuttled through the array, patrolling in the military formation with sonorous steps.
The air was filled with the tense atmosphere before the war, and the weapons in the hands of the soldiers reflected the cold light under the lights. They looked at each other,
exchanging glances, their eyes were full of fearlessness of life and death, and desire for victory.
Time seemed to freeze at this moment, and every breath of the soldiers was filled with the breath of war, and every heartbeat was preparing for the upcoming battle.
In this silent and tense atmosphere, a dwarf legion commander climbed onto the hastily built platform and stood in front of the team. He looked at the more than 30,000 soldiers who were eager to fight.
"Citizens! This is a dangerous operation. A quarter of you may die before you see the enemy. Death is not a pleasant experience. Tell me, are you afraid?"
"No!"
More than 30,000 soldiers roared in unison.
"Good."
The legion commander nodded with satisfaction, raised his spear high, and roared loudly.
"There is no backup and no supply station during this operation. Although you are all extraordinary people, have received professional training, and have physical fitness beyond ordinary people, this operation is still full of difficulties. Here, I ask you to take the central camp as the center and head towards Ice Stone City from different directions. If there is a road, walk on it. If there is no road, blast a way for me. Even if there is a cliff in front, you must find a way to get through. Even if you die, your head must face the direction of Ice Stone City!
Under here, there are nearly 10,000 compatriots waiting for rescue, and behind us is the Northland where nearly one million citizens live. Our enemies are trying to Want to destroy it all, and we will never allow it.
Even if our enemy is the entire water element world, we must contain the cold disaster until the follow-up reinforcements arrive.
This is a difficult test, and we will win!
Glory and honor are waiting for us.
All information has been recorded in your communication devices.
Now, for the chairman! For the committee! For all citizens!
Let's go! "
The soldiers shouted in unison, the sound was deafening, and the sound contained unspeakable determination and faith. The scattered voices conveyed this determination to every corner and resounded through the sky.
Then, the drums of war sounded, and 30,000 armored vehicles began to surge like a tide. They were in uniform and firm steps, advancing towards the space vortex opened by dozens of space casters on the other side.
Under the illumination of the bright light of the strange machine, this torrent is rapidly rushing towards the vortex of fate.
Underground, next to the lighthouse camp built by the explorers, a dozen space casters are maintaining the space vortex outside the camp.
Under the gaze of the explorer, the legionnaires walked out of the space vortex.
After walking out of the space vortex, the legionnaires did not hesitate and quickly counted the number of people based on the hundred-man team.
After counting the number of people in the team, each hundred-man team rushed directly into the depths of darkness in the sacred voice of countless frost dwarves chanting doctrines in unison in the camp.
However, not all legionnaires acted so quickly. A thousand-man team led by the legionnaire and a thousand-man team responsible for sitting in the camp were not so anxious.
The former, led by the legionnaire, walked to the other side of the open space, waiting for Hela's space gate, while the latter, in addition to sending soldiers to the camp, other soldiers were cleaning the surroundings of the space vortex.
Because the space vortex was affected by the space trap set up by the frost dwarves, there were still many legionnaires who were unlucky and were strangled directly in the space vortex, and returned to the Fountain of Life to be resurrected.
When they came out of the body, they were basically scattered in the east and west, and the same was true for the strange machine armor.
These scattered corpses and the remains of strange machine armor were cleaned up by the legion soldiers and piled together.
The corpses of the former can be thrown into the Fountain of Life to feed the blood pool. Although they can't replenish much vitality, it is better than nothing. The latter can be sent back to the strange machine industrial zone for re-casting, mainly for the rare metals such as Mithril and Tears of the Moon Goddess on these strange machine armor.
Although the committee is currently large and powerful, it has inherited a large number of mines in the Dragon Ridge Mountains of the clan countries, and the output of various rare metals is not low. In addition, a large Tear of the Moon Goddess vein has been mined, and there is a stable output of Tears of the Moon Goddess.
But thousands of sets of strange machine armor are not a small number. Even for the committee that has completed the development plan, it is not particularly distressed even if all of them are gone, but they still have to be recycled if they can be recycled.
In addition, the reason why the frost dwarves are chanting doctrines now is not that the explorers want to add spiritual buffs to the legion soldiers, but because of these scattered households.
More than six thousand corpses are already quite a lot. I wonder what the Frost Dwarves would think if they saw this.
Although the spellcasters in the explorers froze the body in time and used spells to create a breeze to blow the bloody smell deep into the cave, as long as the frost dwarves were managed well, there was a high probability that they would not be discovered.
However, in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings and accidents, the priests in the explorers still found an excuse to organize a big prayer and dragged all the frost dwarves to the other side of the camp to chant the doctrine collectively to ensure that there was no possibility of being discovered.
After more than 10,000 legion soldiers came to the underground through the space vortex, the space anchor point in front of the legion commander was also remotely activated to form a space gate.
Looking at the ice stone wall on the other side of the space gate, the legion commander took the lead and led the thousand-man team to quickly pass through the space gate.
After the last person in the thousand-man team passed through the space gate, the space gate quickly closed, and a crack appeared on the space anchor point, and it fell to the ground without light.
The space problem in Ice Stone City is more serious than that on the Dragon Ridge Passage. The water elemental realm opened a channel in Ice Stone City.
Ice Stone City has become the closest place to the water elemental world and the material world. The two world spaces overlap and affect each other, causing the entire interior space of Ice Stone City to be extremely chaotic and dangerous.
Although Hela is a high-level spellcaster, she has just been promoted not long ago. Her strength is enough, but her knowledge and spell level have not caught up.
In the case of needing to retain most of the power to fight against the water elemental world, even Hela, in this case, cannot open the space gate at will, and it is enough to open a short space gate and pull a thousand-man team to be responsible for the initial stability.
As for Roland, after the position is opened, Roland will not open any space gate unless he wants to destroy the position.
Although Roland can open the space gate in the case of space chaos, the position he arranged is also a semi-independent space used to isolate the elemental world and the material world and act as a buffer zone. If the space gate is opened, it is easy to affect and damage the position.
Therefore, sending an elite team of a thousand people to Ice Stone City first is the best choice that can be made at present.
After watching the legion leader lead the team through the space gate, Calvin quickly ran over, collected the broken space anchor point, and returned to the camp.
As the space vortex slowly disappeared, more than 30,000 legion soldiers all entered the underground. Then, the space casters also sat on the ground with sweat dripping down their backs. Next to them were more than 6,300 corpses.
Calvin looked at the teams disappearing into the darkness one by one, and prayed silently in his heart.
