Chapter 178 The Terror of the Biochemical Devil (1/2)

Unlike the false information seen by the great powers, the current domestic situation in the Qingteng Empire can be said to be very good, with agriculture, industry and commerce all advancing by leaps and bounds.

Except for the top leaders who know the real crisis in the world, ordinary people and the backbone of the empire are all in a state of mind at the moment.

It's probably like drinking a few more horse urines and feeling that the universe is mine.

The first to bear the brunt are the magicians. The Queen of Eternal Night has lifted them up. Their mentality is too inflated, and they already think that they can solve all problems through technological innovation.

Although this can be done in theory, the problem is that the empire does not have so much time, and the enemies they have to face have too deep accumulation.

Secondly, the emerging capital class headed by Sophie, looking at the excess profits they have earned, also feels that no one in the world can fight.

Anyone who blocks their way to make money will die.

With money and equipment, these "elites" are inflated at the beginning, and some of the military are also floating with them.

As soon as the Terra Kingdom provoked, the previously stipulated rest and recuperation was a bit too much, and the atmosphere of internal public opinion seeking war was rising.

These were all problems that the Queen of Eternal Night saw. She felt helpless, but she had to solve them.

Although the Eternal Night World was indeed a group of rotten fish and shrimp, the terrifying enemies outside the world were not something that the Empire could contend with. The next step must be to build infrastructure and complete more technological accumulation.

This world will belong to the Empire sooner or later, but the ending cannot be a miserable victory, but an easy integration of existing forces to fight against the Seven Gods who came to the door.

So the Queen of Eternal Night, under Roger's advice, indulged Sophie to stir up the emotions of the magicians and the military and launch such a revenge battle.

The intelligence was public, and the preparations made by the enemy were clearly placed on the table of Duncan and Sophie.

But the Empire had won too many victories under the protection of the Queen of Eternal Night, and had long believed that they were invincible. The defeated orcs would definitely win easily this time.

The mistake of being arrogant and underestimating the enemy was made. After knowing that the enemy's strength might be beyond control, he still pursued the merit and advanced recklessly. Even the Queen of Eternal Night would not intervene forcibly.

Such a lack of calmness shows that the people of the Empire really need a failure to see the reality clearly.

At the same time, Roger hopes to correct the bad habit of magicians who always like to run to the battlefield.

Magicians, who master the most advanced production technology in the world and have insight into the reality of the universe, are high-level intellectuals. They are scientific research talents, engineers, and the most advanced craftsmen, but they use themselves like soldiers. This is the purest waste!

As long as the Qingteng Empire breaks through technology, a magic crystal cannon can replace the damage caused by most magicians. How can they be sacrificed as soldiers on the battlefield at will?

"New Arcane" brought the idea of ​​job transfer, and Che Guevara is also trying to correct the magician's thinking, but Roger found that these are like scratching the itch, and the wizards are still eager to fight in person...

If you don't treat your opponent as a human being, you must learn a lesson.

At this moment, the Empire and the Orcs were already fighting each other. After the direct killing power was curbed, the magicians converted their magic power into magic to enhance their own side, and there were also summons all over the battlefield.

The magicians of the Secret Society are now ten times richer than before.

The immediate combat power converted from wealth is also considerable. Even with Tashika, a "priest" favored by the gods, he cannot make up for the gap in wealth, and the defense line of the Orc Kingdom began to collapse.

At this time, the strong men sent by the powers joined the war.

The order Tashika gave them was not to directly attack the headquarters of the Empire Army, but to fight against the summons and reduce the pressure on the Orcs' defense line.

For the guest army, this was a very low-risk order, and everyone executed it very hard.

Time was passing quietly, and General Duncan intuitively realized that Tashika wanted to delay time. If the delay continued as the enemy imagined, there would be more terrible battles next.

He took his personal guards to the front line, trying to break through the enemy's defense line and achieve success in one battle.

However, before he fought with the orcs, he heard a commotion from behind.

The Snake special forces that Tashika had arranged at the beginning had moved to the main camp where the imperial magicians were concentrated through the "earth escape technique" without any magic fluctuations.

As noble wizards, they were protected in the most comprehensive way even in the fierce bloody battle, and ordinary means could never easily rush to them.

But who would have thought that the orcs actually had a special force that mastered special digging skills and came to them "silently" like swimming in the sand.

The Snakes were originally good at digging in the sand, but their speed was limited.

It was the special armor that used mechanical power to pull the special elastic material, which doubled their speed underground and finally had the value of application on the battlefield.

Of course, this kind of advancement also has disadvantages, that is, the sound will still be detected.

But now there is a fierce battle, and the magicians' attention is on the orc defense line that has been unable to be attacked for a long time. How can they have too much energy to pay attention to their feet?

The package on the back of the Snake Special Forces has been unfolded, and it has been deployed underground in the magician's position in advance, and the anti-magic position has been activated instantly.

This is also a new type of magic equipment, which miniaturizes and modularizes the anti-magic position that needs to be deployed in advance, and can be deployed flexibly in battle.

So in an instant, the magic support that the empire is proud of was silenced.

The life-saving props on the magicians were activated one after another. This Sneak Special Force was specially trained to deal with magicians. They had extremely strong magic resistance and strong will. They quickly sneaked into the side of the imperial magician and stabbed him mercilessly.

"Damn, this is a mage hunter!"

Sophie guessed the profession of these Sneaks, and her face, which was already very ugly because of the stalemate in the battle, suddenly became even uglier.

Mage hunters are a special profession for magicians, most of which are advanced from thieves.

They have obtained extremely high magic resistance and will, are proficient in close-range assassination, and have certain spell counter-attack capabilities. They are created specifically to restrain the most powerful magicians in the world.

Oh, by the way, the earliest mage hunters were magicians from certain organizations, created to target the same.

This Sneak Special Force of the Orc Kingdom was obviously built with a lot of money. From the way of movement to the anti-magic stance, to the skilled assassination skills, it instantly caused great damage to the magicians of the empire.

This is because they are all rich enough. Although they were caught off guard by the magic ban, they still have enough life-saving equipment.

"Return to the mages! Prepare to disengage and retreat in an orderly manner!"

General Duncan knew that their attack today had failed. The mages in the rear were shot in the ass, and he had to rescue them.

If he did not teach the Orc Kingdom enough lessons, he might continue to guard the city of Naito and would not be promoted for a few years.

But if he buried three thousand mages in this desert, he would probably go to jail.

However, he also felt terrified. The enemy deliberately led him forward in a defensive posture here. It was obvious that the reserve team was targeting the imperial magicians. I am afraid that they would be killed if they attacked.

"Keep them, it's time to take revenge on these executioners!" Tasika's clear voice sounded behind Duncan.

The elite First Legion of Orcs changed its previous defensive posture and took the initiative to rush out of the trenches. Together with the strong men supported by the great powers, they entangled General Duncan's troops and prevented them from retreating.

Suddenly, this border guard was attacked from both sides, and the situation it faced was sliding into the abyss.

Sophie's tail stretched out behind her, and her soft hair exploded.

Just now, she used her self-defense pistol to kill the Snake who was targeting her, but the dagger that passed by scared her enough.

She took out a test tube from her arms, and the strange green liquid inside was directly smashed on the enemy's body in front of her.

At the same time, she kept muttering: "Lydia, your invention must be reliable. It all depends on you to save my life, not only me but also this expeditionary force!!!"

The green liquid seemed to have life and quickly drilled into the body. In less than a second, the dead enemy moved again.

But soon found that it was not a simple movement, but a rapid expansion like inflation, and it seemed to have gained hundreds of pounds.

His skin was swollen to almost transparent, and there were many green bugs drilling around inside, which made Sophie's scalp numb and subconsciously retreat.

Bang!

The swollen corpse exploded quickly, and thousands of green worms shot out like arrows.

They are very intelligent. If they hit the orcs, they will quickly drill into the body, and then those elite Snake hunters will tremble in pain, lose their fighting power and kneel on the ground.

If they encounter the imperials, their bodies will quickly melt after drilling into the body, turning into some kind of hormone to stimulate the wound to contract and stop bleeding.

Soon, the skin of the orcs parasitized by the green worms turned green, sharp bone spurs grew on their hands, and their limbs were bent back. They shot at an astonishing speed and pounced on the Snake hunters who were stunned and didn't know what was happening.

In a few breaths, this Snake special forces was wiped out, and they also turned into parasites transformed by green worms.

They crawled like spiders and rushed to the front line of the battle quickly, with green worms hanging all over their bodies.

There are more orcs there, and they will regard the first target of the same kind absorbed as an enemy and launch a new round of parasitism against them.

Either the green worms and parasites are killed, or all enemies within the sensing range are transformed into the same kind, otherwise they will never stop.

"Is this the new invention of Lady Lydia?" A magician looked at the messy battlefield and asked Sophie.

"Yes... Fortunately, it didn't fall over!" Sophie stuck out her tongue. She initially questioned that the woman was too stingy and only gave her a small one.

Now I know that this one is already very powerful...

Although the scene is very disgusting and sanity-losing, they at least survived, right?

...

...

In the end, the battle ended hastily because of the fierce and directional green worms.

A disaster similar to the biochemical crisis broke out among the orcs. The parasites of these green worms have super vitality, and their strength and speed exceed the level of advanced warriors. And if they are slightly scratched by them, they may be infected and mutated.

There are also parasitic larvae that can eject, which are small and fast, and are simply impossible to defend against.

Fortunately, they fought only on instinct. If they couldn't find a new target to attack for a few minutes, their body functions would atrophy, and they could be easily eliminated.

However, it still caused considerable trouble to the Orc Kingdom, preventing them from pursuing the retreating imperial army.

More than 500 of the 3,000 magicians brought by Sophie were killed or wounded in an instant. After they calmed down, they still had the energy to fight, which was also an important factor in Tashka's stopping the pursuit.

The Empire cannot break through the Orcs' defenses, but it is wishful thinking for the Orcs to keep the Imperials.

And who knows whether the Imperials will throw out a second weapon of that terrible weapon that instantly wiped out the Snake Special Forces.

Lord Charles did not say that magicians have such countermeasures. A special forces team of a thousand people is a resource that cannot be regenerated in the short term. A lot of resources have been invested to train them...

The Half-Dragon Princess' heart is bleeding.

In fact, Roger did not expect that the things Sophie took out to save her life were so powerful.

It can only be said that the destructive power of the alchemist master can be estimated, but the destructive power of the things made by the potion and biochemical master is completely beyond the understanding of normal people.

We must have a deeper understanding!

After a symbolic pursuit for a while, the Orc Legion also withdrew and began to clean up the battlefield.

In this battle, the Orcs suffered 7,000 casualties, most of whom died in the frontal defense, including the Snake Special Forces and more than 2,000 people, who died in the damage caused by the green worms.

More than 10,000 ordinary soldiers on the Empire side died, most of whom were chased during the retreat stage.

What the empire was most distressed about was the death of 500 magicians.

Although most of them were intermediate and advanced magicians, the temporary forbidden magic field could not completely lock the legendary magician, but this number was also a heavy loss that the empire had not suffered for a long time.

But the imperial people did not care about the loss. Whether it was soldiers or magicians, they had the courage to continue fighting despite the huge losses.

What they could not tolerate was failure. Although this revenge war went deep into the Kanbusak Desert and killed many orcs, the production of totem bracelets continued. It was obvious that the goal of warning and deterrence was not achieved.

Although Duncan finally saved the main force and controlled the losses within a certain range, this could not cover up the failure.

After returning home, Duncan and Sophie encountered overwhelming scolding, and countless imperial people regarded them as sinners.

Before this, the empire had a record of undefeated victories, but it was broken here. Do you think it’s infuriating?

Of course, there is another important reason for the break, which is that the Queen of Eternal Night did not participate in the war. Otherwise, there would be a chance to reverse the situation even if it was bad, right?

But His Majesty has always been very proud, so he must be angry at this time. In the end, all the blame must be put on Duncan and Sophie.

The two also remained silent. They could not accept the failure. They both submitted their resignations and were willing to take responsibility for the failure of this matter.

The Queen of Eternal Night rejected their resignation. The punishment was to suspend their salary for three months, stay in their original positions to observe the effects, and compensate the victims of this war with the same standard as victory.

"I need to be responsible for this failure of the Empire, the Secret Law Society needs to be responsible, and the military needs to be responsible. Everyone in the Empire should think of the possibility of failure when promoting the war. I hope everyone can reflect on the reasons for this failure and embrace a greater victory."

The speech of the Queen of Eternal Night in Xinghan Palace was uploaded to Fearless Space at the same time as the publication of the "Queen's Long Live Newspaper", which triggered a wave of discussion in the Empire.
