All Gods: Lord’s Conquest

Chapter 299: The Stoneman Empire is accelerating its evolution and gradually going crazy (2/2)

The Stoneman Empire.

Under the strong attack of the Eternal Night Empire, all areas outside the hinterland have been occupied, and the territory of the Stoneman Empire has been greatly reduced. Not only has the situation of lords from all sides coexisting, but the belief in gods is even more chaotic.

In addition to the dark gods and the Stoneman True God, a lot of messy things have emerged, including the promoters of other players and the evil god organizations specially guided by the Eternal Night believers to oppose the Stoneman True God.

In short, under the pollution of these beliefs, the control of the Stoneman True God over the believers in the country has been significantly weakened.

Even if Jim used special means to repair his injuries in advance in just a few years, his strength has at least dropped by 10% compared to before.

The fall of the empire's territory allowed the world consciousness of the Eternal Night plane to enter this continent for a short time, which resulted in Jim's local advantage no longer being as obvious as before.

As for the death of a large number of devout believers and the betrayal of a large number of Stoneman people, it has caused a lot of problems for His divine foundation. Fortunately, the current players' believers are in an extremely saturated state.

Even if a lot of them are reduced, it is still enough to support Him to maintain His true god status.

Otherwise, according to the standard of barely promoted in ancient times, I am afraid that the Stoneman True God has begun to be eroded by faith at this time.

Although the attack was launched from all directions, the southern region of the Stoneman Empire is still the main attack direction of the Eternal Night Army.

After years of evolution, the Stoneman Army, who knew that hiding in the city was waiting to die, did not continue to guard the city. They walked out of the city, formed their own army, and then carried those more extreme characteristics and began to fight the Eternal Night Army head-on.

Lagodi Plain.

Two completely different armies are fighting, and the difference in numbers between the two sides is quite large, almost reaching the point of four to one, but from the on-site battle situation, it can be seen that the smaller number of black armored troops has a clear advantage.

"For the Lord of Mountains and Rivers, for the continuation of the Stoneman Empire, the brave warriors of the Empire will fight these invaders!" The commander of the Stoneman army shouted loudly, and the sound was transmitted to the ears of all the Stoneman warriors through special spiritual magic, boosting the morale of the warriors.

"For the Lord of Mountains and Rivers, for the glory of the gods!"

"Kill! Even if you die, you must bite off a piece of meat!"

"Come on, despicable invaders!"

The brave Stoneman warriors had already prepared for death before coming. At this moment, they all showed fanaticism, like moths to a flame, rushing towards the Eternal Night Army.

This is an ambush with more people against fewer.

Even now, in terms of intelligence, the Stoneman Empire still has an absolute advantage.

They often use the surrounding environment and terrain to encircle and suppress the scattered Eternal Night Legion, and this time is no exception.

As the Eternal Night Army penetrated deeper into the Stoneman Empire, the battle line continued to extend, and there were more and more targets to deal with. Even if a large number of legions were deployed from the empire, the Eternal Night Army still became scattered.

Facing the Stoneman Empire, which could recruit soldiers anytime and anywhere, they often fell behind in terms of military strength.

Being ambushed was also common.

However.

Since they dared to fight like this, the Eternal Night Empire naturally had its own confidence.

"A mere trash legion wants to stop us, what a wishful thinking!" There was only one legion of soldiers, but this pure human Eternal Night Legion, facing the crazy offensive of the Stoneman Army, not only did not choose to temporarily avoid the sharp edge, but instead, under the leadership of the legion leader, launched a counterattack.

"Die!"

The centurion held a dark long sword in his hand, without any fancy moves, and slashed at the Stoneman warrior in front of him.

With a swish, a small blood mark appeared between the eyebrows of the Stoneman centurion, who was enough to be called an elite, and then spread downwards, penetrating the entire body.

Without even feeling the pain, the Stoneman Thousand Captain was split in half.

"Kill!"

The fanatical Stoneman warrior was not frightened, and rushed up with a big knife in hand. Energy surged from the ground under his feet, and the sharp blade glowed, and he chopped at the Eternal Night Thousand Captain fearlessly.

Defense, no need.

Facing such super-standard damage, defense and no defense have almost the same meaning, at most you can live two more seconds, and then be killed.

Rather than dying in vain, it is better to fight with your life.

After understanding the reason, the Stoneman warrior did not defend at all.

Only attack, no defense, and I will give you my life.

[Feature ① Sacrifice: Sacrifice everything, greatly improve strength in a short period of time (cannot be stopped)]

[Feature ① Armor Break: Give up defense, increase penetration damage by 20%~50%]

[Feature ① Attack and Defense Conversion: Convert part of defense into lethality]

They are just ordinary fourth-level warriors, but at this moment they have shown extremely strong lethality, which is not inferior to normal sixth-level warriors.

However, it is not enough.

Far from enough.

"Courage is commendable, but strength is not enough!"

The eyes of the Eternal Night Thousand Captain flashed scarlet light, and his body was covered with blood, like a demon warrior from hell.

The long sword swept across, and arc light suddenly appeared.

The four stone warriors were directly cut off.

The stone warriors are already good, but such combat power is not enough for them to defeat the Eternal Night Legion.

One by one, the Eternal Night warriors, holding long swords, rushed forward.

As the long sword was swung, several stone warriors fell to the ground.

Although they also suffered casualties during this period, in comparison, the casualties of the stone warriors were greater. The proportion of casualties on both sides was much higher than the proportion of soldiers on the scene.

In other words, if both sides refuse to retreat, the larger army of stone men will die first.

Judging from the madness at the scene, a fight to the death is very likely.

The legion composed of fanatical believers is so terrifying, with a death rate that a normal legion cannot bear.

Even though they suffered heavy casualties, they were still able to maintain their structure and continue to fight the enemy bravely.

But it's not of much use.

Even if they chose an extreme route and used self-destruction, they briefly gained strength that they should not have at this stage.

But the gap in hard power between the two sides is too great.

The legions of the Eternal Night Empire have a solid foundation, and their regular legions are relatively versatile. They have no obvious shortcomings and are not afraid of the stone warriors working hard.

The battle lasted for more than ten hours without stopping.

When their own numbers were about to drop to twice the size of the Eternal Night Army, the Stoneman army finally couldn't bear it anymore. After leaving the corpses on the ground, they chose to retreat directly.

"Stop, stop chasing me."

After chasing for a certain distance, the legion commander gave up the pursuit.

After all, this is the opponent's territory. If we continue to pursue him, there will probably be no results.

Besides, after fighting for so long, even if the soldiers under his command are particularly good at fighting, they are still a little tired at the moment and are not in particularly good condition. If they were caught in other encirclements during the pursuit, the losses may not be so small.

"Return to rest and summon a group of undead warriors. These guys have become more and more arrogant recently. If we don't teach them a lesson, we really think we can't do anything to them." After putting away the corpses everywhere, there were only more than 7,000 immortals left. The Night Warrior quickly retreated and moved quickly towards the direction from which he came.

In front of the escape route of the remnant Stoneman army, the Stoneman warriors who were hiding in the mountains with the help of the divine blessing were a little disappointed when they saw that the Yongye army did not pursue them.

"These guys were very cruel when they were beaten, but they were unexpectedly cautious in the end. They were really difficult to deal with, damn it!" The Stoneman Commander was a little annoyed. He had been preparing for so long and paid such a high price, but in the end, the other side didn't even come close. It really made him feel like he had no power to use.

If the Yongye Legion didn't enter the trap, he wouldn't dare to go directly to surround them. Otherwise, if the enemy saw that the situation was not good and ran away, he would really be in tears.

A powerful enemy is difficult to deal with, and a powerful and cunning enemy is even more difficult to deal with.

The legions of the Eternal Night Empire are very brave when fighting, and they will fight to the death. However, if they encounter a situation that they cannot beat, and there are no hard requirements, they will not hesitate when retreating.

"It's okay to replace more than two thousand Yongye warriors." The adjutant next to him comforted calmly.

"What's the use? There are more and more undead warriors on the opposite side. If we continue like this, the entire empire territory will be covered by undead. We will just change our name to the Undead Empire in the future!" Hearing this, the stone man commander rolled his eyes. He said angrily.

"There is no way, the other side's method is too rogue."

Another stone man general said helplessly, "Unless we can win the frontal battlefield and dispose of the corpses, according to the current fighting style, the opponent's strength will continue to grow, but..."

But if they could win the frontal battlefield, they wouldn't engage in such small tricks.

Now, aren't they just on the frontal battlefield, unable to win no matter what, so they have to hunt these individual legions to slow down the frontal progress of Yongye's army.

"well"

The stone man commander sighed, "Retreat! Tell Darko to enter a latent state and stop recruiting soldiers. After a while, when the limelight has passed, we will give him support weapons and equipment."

"yes."

The eastern region goes deep into the hinterland of the empire.

On a low plain, two armies were fighting. One of them was an army of orcs, and the other was an army of stone men. There were nearly 200,000 people in total. The fight was fierce.

In terms of numbers, the stone army held a slight advantage, but the entire battlefield situation was in a stalemate.

The two sides fought evenly.

The overall strength of Jim's Stoneman Empire and Ji Xingwei's Orc Empire are not much different, and both sides have no restraint effect in terms of power.

Theoretically speaking, given the local advantage, the stone army should have a huge advantage.

However, since all the elite legions were transferred to the southern theater, the legions remaining in the eastern region at this time were mostly recruits, with very few elites among them.

So there is really no good way to deal with the orc army.

"For His Majesty the Orcs, disperse them!"

The orc army commander roared angrily and led his guards forward to form an arrow formation, hoping to penetrate the stone defense line on the opposite side.

However, it didn't have much effect.

The taciturn stone man heavy infantry slowly raised their shields and stepped on the earth. A steady stream of power surged up, like low mountains, blocking the front of the orc army. No matter how they attacked, they could not break through.

When facing the Eternal Night Legion, the extremely fragile defense used to deal with these orc legions finally exerted its due effect.

Some veterans who had participated in the war in the southern theater even wanted to laugh when facing the "fierce attack" of the orc army.

With this strength, they also want to learn how to break the formation. I'm afraid their brains are not awake yet!

Weak, too weak.

Admittedly, they themselves cannot effectively kill the orc army.

But it doesn't matter. After all, their goal is not to annihilate the orc army, but just to delay them.

Moreover, in such a low-intensity war, the Stoneman Empire can effectively hone its new recruits, so as not to be like the southern theater, where if you don't pay attention, not to mention the new recruits, the elite army will be overthrown.

It can be said that the Stoneman Empire has entered a state of madness. They began to gather all their strength to resist the attack of the Eternal Night Empire.

As for the future, it's gone now, so what's the future!

After simply training the Stonemen, they were directly sent to the eastern battlefield, actively looking for opportunities to fight. After surviving a few battles, they were transferred to the southern theater to encircle and annihilate the lone Eternal Night Legion and Servant Legion.

Since the Stonemen Empire was desperate, the southern theater was fine and strong enough, but the orc army in the eastern theater was a bit miserable, facing several times the Stonemen army every now and then.

Even if they continued to mobilize the orc army from their homeland, it would not help. The other side did not care about casualties at all, just using the Stonemen warriors as numbers.

In this case, if it were not for the blood transfusion from the Eternal Night Empire, the orc army would probably have been beaten back to the border.

At this time, the situation on this battlefield was a microcosm of the entire eastern theater.

The orc commander struggled to command the legion, wanting to destroy the enemy legion, but it was really hard to bite.

Too hard.

"Damn it!"

After a night of fierce fighting, just when the orc commander was cursing and the stone commander was proud, there was some movement in the distance.

"Roar——"

"To fear the ancestors!"

"Kill these stone men and sacrifice them to the great gods!"

A Naga army led three dark fishmen armies from the rear of the stone army.

The orc commander was overjoyed when he saw this: "Stop these stone men and don't let them run away!"

"Here they come again, retreat quickly!"

The stone commander's reaction was exactly the opposite, but he was not too panicked. Obviously, he had encountered similar scenes before.

While sending the stone heavy infantry to intercept, he pulled out the stone army that was fighting and prepared to retreat.

At the same time, the stone magician also began to change the surrounding environment, making the dust in it more.
