My players are so fierce.

Chapter 1455. Will the Dragon Lady send a big rat as a reward?
When the family psionicists of Deep Shadow City finally succeeded in expanding the defensive barrier to the entire city, the Zerg's attack was essentially declared a failure.

Although their ground forces finally broke through the ratmen's central bloom tactics, by the time the Zerg entered the divided battlefield, the Zerg's vanguard had been consumed in the counterattack launched by the city forces, and reinforcements from several other cities of the Deberia family also arrived at the battlefield after several hours of fierce fighting.

Not to mention, those damn rats are simply impossible to kill!

Black Servant's continuous mobilization led to the ratmen digging more and more tunnels on the battlefield, until finally one group of ratmen, perhaps because they lost their way or rushed too fast, actually dug a tunnel near the insect nest on the east exit of the Eternal Rift.

They frantically plundered the worker insects and took them back as "holy communion", even interfering with the biomass recycling of the insect nest for a time, forcing the nest master to mobilize some soldier insects back to defend the insect nest.

Under the dual pressure of being in a tight situation in the front and in the back, the stronghold of a marginal hive finally couldn't stand it anymore, so after a certain moment, the swarm began to retreat on its own initiative. As before, they took away all the biomass on the battlefield and used it to hatch the next batch of soldier insects to destroy the city in front of them.

This is a very dangerous sign.

According to the experience of the Locust Wall, if the Zerg nest cannot be destroyed in the first battle, they will be dragged into the battle rhythm of the Zerg and fall into the dilemma of "the more you fight, the more there are".

General Philosier had also intended to press on with the victory and use the momentum of victory to destroy the edge hive in one fell swoop and completely eliminate the hidden danger on the shadow elves' side, but she was stopped by Murphy before she issued the order.

On the one hand, the east side of the Eternal Rift is too close to the Gray Desert.

That is the birthplace of the sea of ​​insects. Simply eliminating the insect nest on the edge of the current place will not eliminate the hidden danger of the shadow elves.

On the other hand, since the "gene bomb" has been delivered to the insect nest by a dedicated "courier", Murphy and his entomologists plan to wait and see the effect of the gene bomb.

Anyway, at the reproduction speed of the swarm, once the genetic worm is assimilated, new worms will be born in eight hours at most.

Alas, there will be something interesting to watch then!
After the Zerg swarm retreated, cheers rang out from the walls of Deep Shadow City. All the shadow elves who participated in this brutal war seemed to be in another world. After a brief cheer, they fell into exhaustion and sadness.

Shadow elves are insidious and cunning, but that doesn't mean they have no feelings, especially the complex emotions between the elves often surpass the joys, sorrows, anger and happiness of other races.

They won, but at what cost?

Even though the exact number of casualties has not been counted yet, the fact that five battalions of family guards were wiped out in just one battle is enough to show the intensity of this war. Suiying City is already the most powerful force among the thirteen families, but the guards deployed by Grandmother Youying in the family territory, including the new recruits, only have sixteen battalions and thirty-seven thousand people.

This was a tragic casualty ratio even when the ratmen came to support. It is obvious that if the ratmen had not suddenly jumped out and provided a brilliant move, I am afraid that Suiying City would have really faced brutal destruction today.

Shadow elves are also elves, and they are also an immortal species that is difficult to breed. Although the fertility rate of shadow elves is much higher than that of other elves due to their decadent lifestyle, their outrageous strategy of "favoring girls over boys" has ruined their original breeding advantage.

But that is all destined to be in the past.

Today's war of unprecedented intensity within the Eternal Rift will inevitably be commemorated by the entire Shadow Elves in some form. After realizing the real existence of the threat, even the most stubborn top leaders have to consider the issue of expanding the army.

Under such circumstances, it became inevitable to recruit a large number of naturally strong and combative men into the army.

Once they have control of the gun, the men who have been oppressed by women will take back what they have lost, whether the women like it or not.

"Thank you for your assistance today, General Philosir."

Grandmother Shadow brought her three daughters and two matrons who had successfully stood in line to the dilapidated city wall. They found Ms. Filosir who was resting and expressed their most sincere gratitude.

Of course, as a respectable man trained by Prince Bai himself, thanks cannot be expressed with empty words.

Lady Drusilla took an exquisite spider treasure box from her eldest daughter and handed it to Firosil with both hands. She said:

"I know your story and your choice. I know you will devote the rest of your life to the cause of order. This is a great sacrifice. We are deeply grateful for your help to us, so we decided to give you the holy relic given by Lady Rose as a gift. May this sword protect you from the harm of chaos."

General Philosier was not a materialistic person, but as a warrior and a commander, they both shared a love for good weapons.

She took the treasure box and opened it. Looking at the black dragon tooth sword with an exquisite scabbard inside, she couldn't help but reach out and touch the legendary shadow elf holy sword. She asked:
"Is it really okay to give me such a treasure? You only have thirteen of them, and they are all sacred objects of Ms. Spider."

"There's enough left for us, maybe even a little too much."

Grandmother Shadow said in a subtle tone:

"The Shadow Elves have eradicated the cancer of their race in this battle, which means that we will get rid of the constraints and divisions of the past and move towards true unity. Since there is no tradition of the thirteen families anymore, the thirteen holy swords seem a bit redundant.

This kind of symbolic thing is not a good thing once there are too many of them.

The holy sword in your hand comes from the Mathis family. It is stained with the shameful mark of betrayal, and it is extremely eager to avenge itself in the hands of a hero. The holy swords of other families will also be given as state gifts of the Shadow Elf Kingdom to Lord Murphy, the Millennium Dragon Emperor and Regent Ivy respectively. The rest will be given as legendary objects to those warriors who have made contributions to the kingdom.

I only keep one in my hand, as a symbol of the Queen.

Don't worry!

We discussed this decision with Ms. Rose before making it, and she had no objection to it.”

"In that case, I would be disrespectful."

Firosil accepted the holy sword and put it on her armor belt. Then she said to the Shadow Grandmother in front of her in a serious tone:
“I know it’s inconvenient for you to move now, but for the future of the Shadow Elves, you must go to the Great Moon Temple of the Kingdom of Castia in person. Only your tour of the kingdom can make the elves in your hometown truly aware of the hidden story behind the Shadow Elves’ rebellion.

Our people are proud and demanding, and it is not easy to win their goodwill.

This is not just for the kingdom diplomacy of the shadow elves, but also for those wanderers who are determined to leave the Eternal Rift and return to their hometown to settle down. Ivvy will ensure their safety, but it is not easy to reintegrate into the system of the elven kingdom. "

"I know."

Ms. Drusilla nodded and said:

“Therefore, I will send my little daughter to the Kingdom of Castilla to serve as the Shadow Elves’ ambassador in His Majesty Ivy’s court. Although she is young, she is kind-hearted and a little confused sometimes, but I believe she can represent the Shadow Elves’ determination to return to their roots.

However, the two sides will eventually have to conduct diplomacy as countries. After all, I have a personal appointment from the Millennium Dragon Emperor, and that is also the future I have chosen for the Shadow Elves."

"We understand that the centuries-long separation between Castilla and the Shadow Kingdom is not a trauma that can be healed overnight. It requires joint efforts from both sides."

Philosir nodded and said:
"But I have no interest in politics, so you need to have a more serious discussion and reach an agreement with Ivelios and his wife. In addition, I think you should send an army to the Locust Wall.

All the forces of the entire continent are working together there to resist the threat of the Zerg. It is a dangerous place but also a place full of opportunities. Do you understand what I mean?"

"of course."

Drusilla smiled and said:
"My outstanding eldest daughter, Tira, will lead the people to set off immediately after the Deep Shadow City is stabilized. As for me, I will follow Mr. Murphy's Gray Expeditionary Force to the Gray Desert and participate in the attack on Hive Zero together with the army of the Ancient Kingdom of Callum!
I understand that this is the Shadow Elves' first performance on the mainland stage, and anyone who wants to disrupt this performance must be eradicated!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a burst of noise coming from outside.

Firosil frowned and looked outside, and saw a giant red dragon galloping over the city wall towards a certain direction outside the city. The oppression brought by the terrifying giant that blocked out the sky and the sun made people panic, and its inherent dragon power made some tired soldiers turn their heads away and dare not look.

"That kind of giant beast."

Firoxil narrowed his eyes and said, "They have gained freedom in Deep Shadow City. Do they plan to stay here?"

"I hope so."

Grandmother Shadow walked up to the general and said softly:

"I am trying to establish some contact with them. The Eternal Rift is large enough to build a luxurious dragon nest for Lord Apolis and his partner Runar. But I guess Lord Murphy must have his own plans for the fate of these created behemoths.

Well, this world will have one more legendary creature that will surely be praised, the next era will be very lively."

Just as the two ladies were talking, a fallen son of God pushed the door open. She saluted with a bandage on her hand and said to Philosier with an expression that she could not hold back:
"General! Lord Black Servant, the leader of the ratmen who calls himself the 'Black Fang King', invites you and Ms. Drusilla to attend the ratmen's holy communion. He claims that their big-mouthed rat god is very satisfied with today's victory and specifically instructed him to invite his comrades to taste the supreme holy communion that represents honor and power."

"what?"

The two well-informed ladies were stunned.

Judging from each other's expressions, they had no intention of attending a dinner party hosted by a group of rats. Given the rats' poor hygiene habits, one could imagine how twisted the "delicacies" there would be. However, Hei Pu Sen had invited them so solemnly, even invoking the name of the gods.

If I don't go, I'm afraid I'll get into trouble.

Judging from the exaggerated combat effectiveness displayed by the ratmen on the battlefield today, if the shadow elves are really annoyed, they will have no peace in the Eternal Rift in the future.

"Didn't I tell you to hide it? Look! The dragoness found it. I can't explain it now."

On a hill outside the city where the smoke of the battlefield still lingered, Murphy stood on top of a huge stalactite column and said helplessly to Tracy beside him:
"It looks angry."

"What are you afraid of?"

While holding the squeaking little dragon Lorraine, Tris was not afraid of the red dragon flying towards her. Instead, there was a strange eagerness in her eyes.

Although the little dragon is raised as a pet, because of the mysterious blood contract, Cuiss loves this little dragon very much and never grows no matter how much it eats. She treats it like her own "furry child" and takes it with her wherever she goes.

Murphy originally had some liking for the little dragon.

But several times when he and Tris were getting close at a critical moment, the elusive little dragon suddenly jumped out to interrupt their good times, and the Vampire Governor no longer had a good face towards this little guy.

Now, when Cui Si faced the mother dragon who came to "demand punishment", she acted as if she was declaring her sovereignty. She held the little dragon in her arms and stared at the giant red dragon that flapped its huge wings and landed on the huge platform in front of her.

Compared to the violent and ferocious black dragon Apolis, the female dragon named "Runar" that Sari held up was more gentle.

Of course, no matter how gentle a seventy-meter-long dragon is, it is still a very terrifying creature for mortals, especially when the mother dragon spurts sparks from its nostrils, it really makes people afraid that this guy will suddenly attack and hurt people in the next second.

but no.

Not only did he not hurt anyone, Runar also revealed a rather "confused" expression at this time.

Her huge dragon eyes stared at the little dragon Lorraine in Cuisi's arms, and she shook her head like a dog, looking him up and down, as if she wanted to confirm whether this was her cub. Why did it grow into such a strange appearance?
However, being able to attract the mother dragon to come over would confirm that she had indeed felt the blood connection between Lorraine and her.

"Can you speak?"

Murphy stood beside Tris and looked up at the majestic and powerful female dragon and asked.

The dragon swung its battering ram-like blade-shaped tail in annoyance, folded its wings, and lay down on the stone platform again. After a moment of preparation, an unclear voice sounded from the mother dragon's chest:

"I know a little bit. Shadow Blade taught me."

"As expected of a dragon, it represents wisdom in all kinds of legends. It even learned to speak."

Tris screamed, and then due to a moment of carelessness the little dragon rushed out of her arms. The creature flapped its blood-red wings and flew onto the mother dragon's huge head, flying around her making squeaking sounds.

"How do you hatch eggs?"

Runar blew out gentle flames to play with the little dragon, then looked at Tris and Murphy. She asked very "humbly":

"Can you teach me? My eggs won't hatch. Apolis is going crazy. He wants the tribe to prosper."

"Well, we don't actually know anything about hatching eggs."

Murphy glanced at Tris, who was trying not to laugh.

He did not deceive the red dragon in front of him. He told it how the little ghost dragon was born and said:
"I don't know if you can understand, but the scholars who created you put a 'breeding lock' on you. It is a special instruction that acts on genes. If it is imposed where you were born, it can only be unlocked in the Greenhouse of Life.

I have examined the dragon eggs stolen by the goat men. You and your spouse are healthy and have no genetic problems. It's just that the breeding lock has not been unlocked, so the dragon eggs cannot be hatched.

If you are willing to believe me, come with us to the Greenhouse of Life, and I will personally help you unlock that vicious lock.

In this way, you and Lord Apolis can raise offspring freely, and if you wish, I can create a giant island in the Savage Sea that is most suitable for you to reproduce and survive as your new home."

"Apolis wants to stay here. He finds the darkness here comfortable and reminds him of the caves in the Dark Mountains."

Runar breathed dragon fire from his nostrils and said:

“But I don’t like it!

I like the warm sunshine and the wind outside. In fact, separation is not a big problem. Its wings and I are strong enough to fly across the world and the sea.

So if you could really create an island that I would love, then I could take my kids there and escape to the world.

However, the prerequisite is that I must be able to hatch enough offspring.

The one who shaped us seemed to have left something in our minds. He called me 'Mother of Dragons'.

I like this title and I hope to fulfill my destiny.”

"Then let's go to the Greenhouse of Life."

Murphy said:
"There is bound to be a great battle there, which is just the right place for mighty dragons like you to perform. In the name of the intern creator, I promise you that after that battle, your children will be born. However, the legendary dragons will use psychic energy to create human forms, so that it is easier for you to hide yourself. Do you know similar spells?"

"I won't!"

Runar said frankly:
"But I can learn on the spot. I have seen goatmen cast spells in the Black Mist Mountains before. I can sense the spiritual energy flowing in the air around me. I don't think those spells are difficult. I just don't understand their principles very well, so I can't imitate them."

"Tris, teach her."

Murphy snapped his fingers and said:
"I can't wait to show our little players the real 'Dragon Lady'. Well, for the sake of my little players' wallets, maybe it's time to break Li Ji's monopoly in this area."
