Emperor of Arcane

After receiving the orders and support from the Kingdom of the Cole Elf, many forces that were already quite unhappy with the Netheril Empire immediately showed their power together.

Don't think that the Netheril Empire, ruled by the Arcanists and the Great Arcanists, is a "good neighbor" or a "good ruling force".

In fact, when intelligent creatures have almost supreme power and strength, and there are no corresponding systems and rules to restrict them.

It is not surprising to do all kinds of weird things.

And for the Arcanists, the desire for various resources and experimental subjects on the road to pursuing knowledge and power is almost endless.

The pressure of the Arcanists was passed down, and the officials and nobles at the bottom would naturally not bear it alone, and would definitely pass the pressure on the people.

Therefore, the increasingly strong oppression and the exploitation of various races around are naturally common.

It is precisely because of the Arcanists' high-handed attitude.

Therefore, many lords and nobles were quite wary of the initial transactions and caravans of the Bay Territory.

Fortunately, as time went by, the reputation of the Gulf Territory grew, and it overshadowed the Netheril Empire.

In addition, the Gulf Territory liked to promote a trading method that would benefit everyone.

Therefore, many lords and nobles could not resist such temptation and joined the ranks of cooperating with the Gulf Territory.

But even so, their fear of the arcane magicians was still very alarming, and they decided to separate the Gulf Territory from the Netheril Empire.

Because of this atmosphere, the expansion of the Netheril Empire was greatly hindered, so it did not completely control the central part of the northern continent.

In fact, the bad reputation and style of the Netheril Empire were also inseparable from the guidance and propaganda of the Kor Elf Kingdom.

It just so happened that the spellcasters of the Netheril Empire at that time almost obeyed the Kor Elf Kingdom, and naturally had no defense.

Because of this, the various arrangements of the Netheril Empire were so thoroughly understood by the Kor Elf Kingdom.

The news of unrest in various places immediately made the Netheril Empire Parliament busy.

They had to deploy troops and generals to try to better stabilize the situation and ensure that the existing territory could continue to be included in the rule.

After all, with the arrival of the elemental tide, even the originally "barren" territories and regions have a lot of mining and development value.

The desire for strength improvement and the pursuit of wealth have made them have a stronger desire for more resources.

For the upcoming danger, the Netheril Empire Parliament, which was still unaware, sent out several legions.

As a result, these legions had just left and had just fought with local rebels or attackers.

Afterwards, various rebellions, cult organizations, and large-scale looters emerged from all over the Netheril Empire.

The Netheril Empire Parliament, which was caught off guard, dealt with the various turmoil in its own territory in a timely manner.

After all, the area affected by the turmoil this time was relatively wide, and many territories of parliamentarians were attacked.

If it were normal, they could only pinch their noses and do it themselves.

Now that they have hit it, it is definitely better to send public troops to take action!

The Archmages of the Netheril Council were not surprised at all that these mage lords had such ideas.

Archmage Kenorman, who had completely given up on some guys, was preparing to build his own floating city.

Now he also figured out that giving in was not the best way, and only by strengthening one's own strength could one cope with more possible crises.

However, Archmage Kenorman still gave a warning:

"Be careful of the Kingdom of the Cole Elf, and each territory must strengthen its military strength."

"If you really suffer an irresistible crisis, then ask for support from the Gulf Territory combat troops as soon as possible."

"Although they are asking for a high price, it is definitely worth the money."

Some of the lackeys who are loyal to the Cole Elf Kingdom still sneered at Archmage Kenorman's words.

However, there are also many mage lords who have changed their minds and chose to cooperate more deeply with the Gulf Territory.

They have made up their minds to get in deeper contact with the Gulf Territory and complete more cooperative investments.

In their simple ideas and cognitions,

The more common interests they have with the Gulf Territory, the greater the possibility that the other party will send out elite combat forces when they ask for support from the Gulf Territory.

This should be what the Gulf Territory calls "sunk cost"!

The Kingdom of Cole Elf quickly carried out the next plan to guide and manipulate the orc army.

From the north, west and southwest, they approached the Netheril Empire.

Facing the huge orc army, the Netheril Empire, which lost enough mobile forces, was completely unable to resist the invasion of the huge orcs.

Even if some lords and nobles chose to fight defensively, they could not withstand the orcs like a tide.

In just a few days.

The western territory, which had not recovered, was immediately occupied by the orc army.

Even though they had some weapons and equipment produced by the Gulf Territory, they did not make a decent resistance.

Even because of their loss, the lords and nobles in the southwest were caught off guard.

Surrounded by the orc army!

In this situation, only a very small number of lords and nobles withstood the pressure and withstood the attack of the orc army.

But although they withstood the attack of the orc army, they still felt inexplicable panic.

Because the orc warriors they faced.

They were no longer ordinary orcs wearing simple leather armor or rusty armor and holding crude weapons.

Instead, they were elite orcs wearing iron armor, strong physique, holding sophisticated weapons, able to operate siege machinery, and possessing very strong combat power.

It can be seen that the Kingdom of Cole Elf really spent a lot of money this time and was ready to deal with the Netheril Empire at all costs.

Faced with this sudden change, the mage lords who were originally leisurely also became anxious.

They immediately applied for support, wanting the last living force of the Netheril Empire to go to their own territory.

For this reason, the entire parliament scene was a mess.

Only some mage lords felt extremely fortunate that their territories and castles were impregnable.

Fortunately, they applied for support from the Bay Territory in time.

The latter sent out a powerful combat force, which not only withstood the orcs' attack, but also caused considerable casualties to them.

The powerful combat force and huge losses even forced the orcs to bypass their position and continue to attack further to the rear.

In addition to the powerful combat forces of the Gulf Territory, what made them even more incredible was the engineering troops they sent over.

The engineering troops of the Gulf Territory have almost incredible construction capabilities.

They are especially good at building defensive fortresses and fronts.

In just two or three days.

A trench that can block the rapid advancement of engineering equipment.

The city wall was widened and thickened to 20 meters high.

An artillery position that can be quickly transferred and remotely defended.

A lookout arrow tower that is more than 50 meters high.

A large magic barrier array that can defend against most remote spells and bombings.

All kinds of defensive facilities that they have seen or not seen were quickly built, and soon played a powerful role in the battle.

Observing the battle of the Gulf Territory's combat forces made these mage lords feel unfamiliar and confused.

They never thought that it would only take a few years.

The battle process changed from the original melee units fighting with swords and long-range mages bombing.

It became a full-scale long-range weapon suppression and attack. They didn't even need to take action, and the battle ended in a roar.

For such a situation, the mage lord and the guards of the territory seemed a little at a loss.

They felt out of touch with the times!

Fortunately, the Gulf Territory did not mean to hide it and was very happy to share the combat methods with them.

To do this, they must order the training package of the Gulf Territory and buy various magic equipment.

After buying these magic equipment, various weapons and equipment must also be purchased from the Gulf Territory.

The price of these equipment will not be very high, but it is definitely not low.

After all, Matthew does not want these weapons and equipment to be scattered among the people.

The beautiful life of universal shooting can be silently endured by the people in that area of ​​the original world.

Compared with the "bang bang" beating of the Netheril Empire in the northern continent, the great lords and nobles of the Brave Continent also ushered in the first wave of tragic collisions.

Facing a large and powerful demon army, the combat troops with an average challenge level of only 8 and an average combat power of only around 120 points were beaten to pieces almost as soon as they came into contact.

Fortunately, the great lords and nobles who led the team had very strong combat power.

They all started at least at the legendary level, and some had even broken through to the demigod level. Both their personal combat ability and their ability to lead the team were very outstanding.

Those who dared to embark on the path of becoming a god, and were recognized by the Gulf Territory and promoted as a key existence, were definitely strong and genuine.

But even with them at the forefront, facing more and more powerful demons, the combat troops who were not mentally prepared could only struggle to support themselves.

Fortunately, the artillery support from the Gulf Territory came quickly, otherwise these demon armies that were chased and almost fled would really fight a comeback for no reason.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The bombing and artillery fire that came one after another made the ground tremble constantly.

The demon army that was so arrogant just now was blown to pieces in an instant.

The violent impact of the explosion made the lords and nobles who had just breathed a sigh of relief a little stunned.

The power and intensity of the explosion were not particularly high, just at the level of super-high to peak.

Most of them could perform it easily, even some of the accompanying team members could do it.

However, thousands of concentrated performances, as well as a killing range of 20 to 30 meters, and a very effective formation destruction capability including 50 meters.

They immediately realized that these heavy artillery that seemed inconspicuous in the battle images of the Gulf Territory actually had extremely terrible destructive power.

Even many lords and heroes had deep doubts about their own strength and ability.

They trained hard for dozens or hundreds of years, learned various knowledge and expertise, and honed various inheritances and skills.

Their performance on the battlefield was not as good as a magic artillery costing tens of thousands of gold coins.

Fortunately, they all have excellent adjustment capabilities, and they plan to study the various weapons produced by the Gulf Territory carefully, and then turn the page on this matter.

Of course, some lords and nobles who have a deep cooperation with the Gulf Territory asked for help from the Gulf Territory combat forces.

The dragon warrior troops that were chasing the remaining demon army quickly accepted their request.

They combined their forces and handed over the combat and defense tasks to the Gulf Territory combat forces.

Some lords and nobles even chose to jointly develop the minerals found in the Brave Continent with the Gulf Territory.

They thought very clearly that since they were not strong enough, they might as well ask the Gulf Territory, which was strong enough, for help.

In addition to requiring various resources, the Gulf Territory usually does not put forward any excessive conditions.

This is much "stronger" than other lords and nobles.

Under the leadership of Annie, the Gulf Territory combat forces integrated a group of lords and nobles' troops and incorporated them into the Gulf Territory's digital combat system.

The purpose of doing this is to arrange defense lines in the long mountains, build various bunkers and fortresses, and block the increasing number of demon armies.

At the beginning, other soldiers and adventurers who had just joined the Gulf Territory's combat forces were still a little hesitant and afraid.

They were very worried that they would become cannon fodder and bait for the Gulf Territory's combat forces.

After all, the more people like the Gulf Territory, the more slander and lies, as well as all kinds of dirty water, will be thrown at it.

But soon, they found that their work and tasks were so simple that they were outrageous.

"Observe the number of enemies on the radar and issue the corresponding level of alarm in time..."

"Issue an attack order to the automated combat artillery team and issue an order to replenish combat supplies in time..."

"You will stay at the sentry post these days, and your only task is to shoot those blind shadow demons with the dragon hunting crossbow..."

"Enter the artillery data, confirm twice, and the combat mission is completed..."

"..."

Fortunately, these simple tasks and jobs are only part of their familiarity with the Gulf Territory's combat mode.

The rewards they get from completing tasks or participating in battles can buy all kinds of magic equipment and weapons they like and yearn for.

At the same time, the Gulf Territory also provides them with a "training package" to improve their strength.

They can work hard to improve their strength or accumulate wealth while participating in battles and completing tasks.

This kind of life is a bit comfortable, almost without danger, but also very rewarding, which makes them willing to indulge in it.

Unable to extricate themselves!

This is the power of the data-based combat mode, which maximizes the role of participants and can accumulate various data to a certain extent, so as to complete combat tasks more easily. (End of this chapter)
