"Experimental Siege Battle"
[Target]: Capture Perugia City (One of the most important cities of the original humans. Currently corresponding to a medium-sized land deed)
Perugia was also the capital of the same province and the capital of Umbria. It was a famous cultural city with a long history.
It was located at the top of a mountain about 500 meters above sea level.
The scenery was beautiful. Facing the Tiber Valley and Lake Trasimeno, it was easy to defend and difficult to attack. Its strategic position was very important.
For more than 200 years, the steam train tracks and transportation stations were built at the foot of the mountain, so the ancient city of Perugia at the top of the mountain was well protected.
The winding streets and roads and the rising ancient city buildings were a major feature of Perugia City.
[Deployment of Troops]:
1. Siege Commander: One Corporal Knight.
2. Siege Knights: About 500 (including special forces).
Voluntary registration. There is no limit to the number of participants.
At that time, the [Eye of Expedition] will be used to conduct preliminary investigation of the target city.
According to the comprehensive information of Perugia City, the most suitable siege army will be selected.
[Reward]:
The knights who win the siege battle will be awarded a "Third Class Ribbon" and have priority in obtaining supplies and treatment in the following expedition.
"We will arrive at Perugia City in two hours. Knights who volunteer to participate in the siege, please gather in the Demon King's Castle in ten minutes."
For a time, the expedition army's formation changed to a certain extent.
About 700 knights signed up to participate in the first siege battle of the great expedition.
(Inside the Demon King's Castle)
A Demon Perception Officer in charge of communication was reporting the information to the Great Demon Commander.
"Commander … when using the [Eye of Expedition] to spy on Perugia City, there was a strong mental backlash, causing five Perception Officers to fall into a deep state of corruption. They are currently being sent to the mobile sanctuary for treatment.
The information obtained from the spying did not meet expectations.
A large number of original human buildings were preserved in the city.
The mental corruption in the city was extremely high.
The Hybrid Demons entrenched in the city also showed a high degree of chaos.
The possibility of a large number of overlapping spaces in the ancient buildings could not be ruled out.
At the same time, the keyword "Rats" was also obtained.
No information about the lord could be found … After analyzing the chaotic attribute, there is a high probability that the lord behind this city corresponds to the [Old Upper King].
Commander, do we need to send the Evernight Wolves to conduct a super fast close-up investigation? "
"A chaotic city with mental corruption? The wolves don't have enough mental defenses, so it'll be dangerous for them to investigate. "
"Then … should we give up on the siege plan? Change the route and choose to take a detour … After all, the old king corresponding to this city is not the ultimate goal of this great expedition. "
"Hahaha! Why would he give up such a good opportunity?
Since this city corresponded to the Upper Old King, as long as they followed the rules, the possibility of the Old King personally descending would be reduced to zero.
Only some Lower Old Kings liked to meddle in other people's business.
How many knights signed up for the siege? Is everyone here? "
"A total of 782 people, all gathered in the hall."
"Hmm … Directly activate the magic crystals in the castle and create a strong thought storm.
The knights who could withstand the attacks would be allowed to participate in the siege.
At the same time, let as many combat nuns as possible to participate in the battle … I'd like to see how capable these Hybrid Demon killers are. "
"Yes."
For a moment.
As the main building material of the castle, the magic crystals lit up with a purple luster.
Demps immediately reminded Han Dong beside him, "The thought storm is coming … It seems that the Great Demon Commander has already seen through the characteristics of Perugia City."
"Hmm."
For a moment.
The thought storm produced by magic elements swept through the brains of every knight present.
A group of knights fainted on the ground.
The magic element storm would not cause any negative effects to individuals, and the fainting was only temporary. On the contrary, it could replenish enough energy for individuals.
On Han Dong's side, his spirit was not affected at all. He just pretended to be affected and supported himself with one hand.
After all, some of the knights present were in the same position … If they performed too well and were assigned a special mission, it would be troublesome. Han Dong just wanted to be a quiet salted fish in the siege.
"Just as you felt the thought storm.
Perugia City is a Hybrid Demon City that mainly relies on mental corruption. Only those who pass the mental defense are qualified to participate in this siege.
Congratulations on successfully being selected as the vanguard of this experimental siege.
This siege will be led by my Knights of Misfortune, the third captain – Arthur Demonized, as the siege commander.
Your core goal is to, under the leadership of Arthur, 'start a war' against the Hybrid Demons that occupy the city. Defeat all the Hybrid Demons entrenched in the city, cut off the Lord's head, and seize the 'title deed'. "
"Yes sir!"
The commander, Arthur Demonized, knelt on one knee at the front. He had almost the same demonic skin as the Great Demon Commander.
However, his white skin was covered with a large amount of 'impurities' in the form of black veins and stripes on the surface of his skin.
His physique was larger, and the outline of his muscles was more obvious.
Normally, he would invest almost all his destiny points into 'demonic substances' in pursuit of endless demonic power … However, under the seemingly manic muscles, there was a rather meticulous heart. He was highly valued by the Great Demon Commander.
The Great Demon Commander stared at the knights kneeling in the main hall. His gaze lingered on Demps for a long time.
Then he continued:
"The reason why the 'experimental' prefix is added to this siege.
It is because we need to use a frontal attack to evaluate the probability of the 'old king's descent' and determine some of the 'world rules' that exist among the Hybrid Demons.
According to the joint divination of several of the highest-ranking prophets in the Holy City, as well as the information collected from past expeditions.
After the Hybrid Demons occupied the world, a 'world rule' was drawn up. All the Hybrid Demons, including the King, must follow this rule.
As living beings, we are also included in this rule.
As long as we follow the rule and launch a siege, the old king behind the scenes will not be able to interfere personally.
I have already told Arthur the specific method in advance. I believe that some of you have rich experience and have participated in medium-sized expeditions before, so you know what the 'rules' are.
I wish you a triumphant return. "
An hour and a half passed.
The ancient city in the mountains shrouded in thick gray fog slowly came into view of the expeditionary army.
"Great Demon Commander! A spiritual-type Hybrid Demon messenger has appeared at the foot of the mountain. It is trying to connect to the [Eye of Expedition] to negotiate with us. "
"Let it connect directly to the Demon King's castle."
Squeak squeak squeak ~ ~
For a moment.
The sound of rats hissing rang in the castle hall.
A Hybrid Demon shrouded in a gray robe appeared in the middle of the hall with a swarm of rats running around under its body.
