Chapter 275: These are no longer ordinary lizardmen, must be heavy

The official website of "Disaster OL" is as lively as ever today.

Due to the previous hearty victory, many players have made a lot of money, especially 【One Gulp of Chemical Pool】 who sold arms until he was satisfied, as well as 【Whale Fall North and South】, 【Shark Drop Things】, 【Little Late Not Full】 and other life-profession players who collected tens of thousands of lizard skins.

Regardless of whether they were full or not before, everyone has eaten a fat man in one bite, and the raw materials have exploded directly.

Most people are very satisfied with the new map.

Except for the mages among the combat profession players.

After a battle, many people didn't earn a cent, and even lost some.

Orcs provide food and housing: "mmp! Is this map poisonous?!"

I want to drink blue bottles: "Why is it so uncomfortable to return mana?! Did the dog planner secretly change the parameters?"

Invincible Magic God: "+1, can't push without taking medicine, mage players can quit the group."

Digging my own grave: "Hahahaha! Brothers! Are you still sitting in jail with a magic wand? Listen to my advice, fire guns are much better than magic wands! Not only high burst, but also reduce material consumption!"

Skeleton Little Mage: "Damn, is it too late to switch to a warrior now? (Crying)"

Tauren Warrior: "Don't be impulsive brother! Look at our Demon King is a mage, maybe the next version of the mage will be strong!"

Peerless Hero: "Can't bear it, I want to make a Gatling! (Anger)"

One Gulp of Chemical Pool: "Already doing it. (Proud)"

Pig-headed Knight: "Damn! Your hands are too fast, right?! (Shocked)"

The forum is full of complaints, but most people are relatively satisfied.

After all, it is the pioneering period now.

Although the income of Nether Coins and experience points is a little less, the income of contribution points is considerable, and everyone can understand.

The difficulty is only temporary!

The Demon King will never treat his citizens badly!

Just when Chemical brother and Zheng Fangxing brother were arguing about which rocket or magic crystal cannon was more suitable for the current version, a post about Assam City suddenly refreshed on the forum and quickly attracted the attention of the melon-eating masses.

Teammate Sacrifice: "Damn, this is too barbaric?!"

The person who posted the post is none other than the guy who said he would explore the way for everyone.

Judging from the complaining title, his trip to Assam City was clearly not optimistic, otherwise he wouldn't have accumulated such great resentment.

Shark Drop Things: "What happened?!"

Whale Fall North and South: "Tell me!"

Pig-headed Knight: "Did the lizard fuck you?!"

Playing in the mud in the Northeast: "What's the feeling?"

Boundless Mana: "Damn! Your taste is a bit heavy!"

Teammate Sacrifice: "Roll roll roll, what is what!"

Under the strong request of everyone, Teammate Sacrifice told his encounter in Assam City.

"I and 【Boundless Mana】 rushed all the way, sleeping in the open, day and night... finally climbed to this legendary 'Assam City', but as soon as I entered the city gate, I was surrounded by guards, almost hanging us as spies on the city gate!"

"I was thinking that the dog planner wouldn't be so dog, and sure enough, a big guy who looked like a priest came out to 'preside over justice'. This lizard looked kind and amiable, not only helped us out of the siege, but also enthusiastically said that he could take us around Assam City."

"I was moved to a batch at that time, so I believed his words. As a result, as soon as we entered the temple, he sent us each a dagger, smiling and asking us to offer our hearts to the Dragon God."

"I was at that time:??? Are you polite?"

"Seeing that we didn't follow, the kind-looking old thing immediately turned his face, stomped his feet as a signal, and a group of guards holding obsidian swords rushed up, slashing at us. Although we were highly skilled in martial arts, two claws were no match for a hundred claws, and those dog things were strong, so we eventually lost. 【Boundless Mana】 that guy was the most unlucky, directly chopped into meat mud, corpse at the top of the pyramid..."

【Teammate Sacrifice】 described the situation at that time vividly, especially the miserable state of his good brother 【Boundless Mana】.

Perhaps it was touching the scene, 【Boundless Mana】 couldn't help but add a sentence below.

"Stop bragging, this dog coin is even worse, shit was beaten out!"

"Roll calf! I killed a few at least, what about you? Useless!"

Watching the two guys who ate alone turn against each other and dismantle each other, the post was suddenly full of happy atmosphere, and the melon-eating masses hit the mockery on the public screen one after another.

Urban slave: "Hahahaha!"

Emotionally stable: "Deserve it!"

Just want to be a corpse: "You two are eating alone and eating shit. (Funny)"

Failed Eel: "Don't say it's quite worth it, that scene can be recorded and made into a cutscene animation."

Failed Dirty Eel: "It's Black Dream! I reported it!!! (Funny)"

Sooner or later in the office: "Is there any video? Let me see what the temple looks like."

Brainless and happy: "Damn wait? Isn't it said that main city NPCs can't attack players? Official come out and manage it."

Population survey: "+1, is it reasonable not to ban him?"

Seeing the follow-up posts of this group of sand sculptures, 【Teammate Sacrifice】's nose was almost crooked.

Being forced to pk by NPCs in the NPC's main city is enough, and still want to be banned?

Look at this, is this what people say?!

Grandpa at the entrance of the village: "But then again, the Saint Scale Dragon Kingdom just fought a battle with us, Assam should be the main city of the hostile NPC forces from a strict sense, it seems there is nothing wrong with being killed by the opposite side."

Dragon Walk · I am eating: "By the way, did you see any awesome things in that city?"

Teammate Sacrifice: "I didn't see any awesome things, but that city is really rich! It's really full of gold, even the water jars on the side of the road are inlaid with gold edges... but guess what they use as currency? It's actually shells!"

Gou Shi: "6666!"

Boundless Mana: "+1, I wanted to pick some gold off and take it back, unfortunately the priest kept following, I didn't have a chance to start, now thinking about it, I still regret it, if I had suddenly run away, I could have survived in the city."

Teammate Sacrifice: "It's not just rich, they also have a set of accomplishments in art and architecture. It's no exaggeration to say that it's basically the most designed main city I've seen in this game so far, none of them! A giant stepped city, the center is a pyramid towering into the clouds. The two Dragon God statues in front of the city gate are ridiculously large, standing there I feel like an ant."

Boundless Mana: "The guard configuration is also very exaggerated, most of them wear that kind of vine armor, holding obsidian spears, standing like models, not squinting. A few of them have more exaggerated armor, inlaid with obsidian armor pieces on the vine armor, looking like heavy armored soldiers like tanks."

Teammate Sacrifice: "And priests, everywhere! They wear gold-patterned black robes, hanging bones and bells on their waists, ding-a-ling-a-ling wherever they go, don't know if they will use magic... By the way! I almost forgot to mention, the core building of the entire Assam City seems to be the pyramid in the center of the city, named 'Dragon God Temple'. It is said to be the core place of the entire Dragon God faith, and it seems to be the key node for stabilizing the Great Barrier?"

Boundless Mana: "In short, these are no longer ordinary lizardmen, must be heavy!"

Teammate Sacrifice: "Brothers! Avenge us!!!"

Ye Zhiqiu: "You can't only think of your brother when you are eating shit. (Funny)"

Hu Wan: "+1"

Teammate Sacrifice: "??? Where is the bond between us?"

Boundless Mana: "Damn! You guys can't be so heartless! qaq"

Grandpa at the entrance of the village: "If I knew this, why did I do it in the first place. (Squinting smile)"

Gou Shi: "+1 (Funny)"

In just a few minutes, the heat of the post climbed rapidly, and it didn't take long to reach the position of the first hot post on the forum.

And just when tens of thousands of players and cloud players were eating melons lively, a certain supreme existence happened to be watching this post.

Clearly, the altar of the Saint Scale Dragon Kingdom couldn't really send people to reincarnation, otherwise those two silly guys who were sacrificed wouldn't have the mood to talk on the forum.

"Dragon God Temple... Great Barrier? Interesting..."

In a tent in the military camp near Deadwood Port, Luo Yan, who was meditating cross-legged on the bed, had an interested expression on his face.

Sure enough.

Just as he expected, the altar in Assam City is the key to maintaining the Great Barrier.

He now has three options.

A is to wave his hand and send the whole army, B is to pick a few capable subordinates to go there, C is to exert the necessary majesty and wait for the opposite side to surrender.

Compared to other demons in Hell, he is more inclined to solve problems by means other than force.

However, looking at the reaction of the Saint Scale Dragon Kingdom, they don't seem to intend to surrender to him easily.

Can only choose A.

"... Demon King! These are no longer ordinary lizardmen, they are clearly cultists! They actually dared to cut the kidneys of your dear citizens! Must be heavy!" Seemingly aware of Luo Yan's thinking, You You, who was floating on the side and watching the fun, encouraged excitedly.

Luo Yan glanced at the air next to him, he didn't need to ask, he knew that this guy was probably learning bad memes from the official website again.

"Do you still need to say this?"

"Hee hee, I'm not sharing your worries for you, respected Demon King," You You, who was floating in the sky like a balloon, playfully spat out an abstract tongue, swayed and flew into the mirror next to the bedside table, "But then again, does it really take so long to prepare to deal with these guys?"

"Caution is the mother of safety. Although the extraordinary power on the Gana Continent is thin, the lizardmen are numerous, and being cautious is never wrong."

Luo Yan didn't talk nonsense with You You, but got up from the bedside and walked towards the outside of the tent.

The efficiency of meditation here is too low, let alone exercising extraordinary power, it is difficult to even recover a little mana.

The reason he was meditating there just now was more to browse the official website forum and see what interesting information his diligent little players had dug up.

And now, this goal has been achieved.

Lifting the curtain, Luo Yan left the tent and strolled in his military camp.

After several days of construction, the entire military camp is different from the initial sloppiness, and all facilities have been improved, looking more and more pleasing to the eye.

Of course, it's also possible that he has been watching for a long time and got used to it.

I saw that near the tent area, there were skeleton soldiers with shabby equipment everywhere, as well as ghouls of various shapes and sizes.

These undead soldiers were sitting or standing lazily on the ground, bones and incomplete limbs crooked, occasionally making a few unrecognizable whispers.

Some of them were the summons of the players, and some were cannon fodder summoned by Luo Yan himself, especially the latter accounted for the vast majority.

Since being promoted to the Gold level, his use of undead magic has become more and more proficient. Coupled with the divinity giving him perception of the soul, it is like adding wings to his control and understanding of power!

If it weren't for the limited mana recovery speed, he could even refine the thirty thousand Scale Dragon soldiers killed earlier into ghouls to fight for him.

However, five or six thousand is enough for now.

Anyway, these dull-looking quick-made products are not the main force of the Demon King's Army, purely used to make up numbers and fill lines.

When it really fights, it still depends on artillery coverage, magic harvesting, and player advancement.

Not far away, the acolytes in charge of managing the undead were busy feeding these guys—the iron bucket mainly contained mushrooms and berries picked by players from the forest, mixed with viscous substances stirred by lizardmen and monster corpse fragments, looking quite strange.

Not being picky is another major advantage of these undead. Even poisonous berries pose no threat to them, but instead can give their attacks a certain toxic effect, which can be described as making the best use of everything.

Luo Yan simply inspected the work of the acolytes, chatted with them casually, then turned and left, walking slowly towards the edge of the military camp.

Currently, the camp is surrounded by a circle of walls made of rough rocks and wooden stakes, and there are creaking sounds from the edge of the forest outside the wall.

That movement was caused by his mount, Alakto, and his disciples and grandchildren.

I saw that under the leadership of the fat big spider, a group of engineering spiders were waving their limbs and mouthparts energetically, quickly cutting down trees one by one.

They cleaned up large areas of open space nimbly, and did not forget to clean up the cut wood branches, with amazing efficiency... even the players who were keen on chores could only sigh, professional work still needs professional people.

Occasionally, a spider is unfortunately smashed into spider sauce, it doesn't matter, these precious nutrients will soon become supplies for other cave spiders.

As the "Chief Construction Captain" of the Great Graveyard, Alakto is as diligent as ever, with a posture of wanting to dig a castle for himself.

Perhaps it was Sarah's becoming stronger that gave him a sense of crisis. Fearing that he would lose favor, he decided to perform in front of the Demon King. He hadn't been idle for these days.

Luo Yan felt that he was a bit redundant.

After all, firstly, the Saint Scale Dragon Kingdom shouldn't be able to reach here, and secondly, the position of mount is currently only most suitable for Alakto... no matter what, he couldn't ride Sarah out.

Although both are pets, the two are completely different ecological niches, and there is no comparability at all.

However, Luo Yan did not pour cold water on his enthusiasm, after all, he really needed a castle to save face.

After solving the trouble of the aborigines, the Gana Continent will soon become the "new front line" for the game between Hell and the Empire.

Not just "Deadwood Port", the Colin family must also have a castle.

Quite satisfied with the performance of his mount, Luo Yan turned and walked towards the center of the camp. There sits the core of the entire military camp—a teleportation array designed and drawn by himself.

Unlike the shabby thing on the beach, this teleportation array far exceeds the former in both scale and the number of magic crystals invested.

I saw the granite-paved array base emitting faint brilliance, a group of acolytes in gray robes surrounded the array eye, solemn, chanting spells, carefully regulating the output of magic power, not daring to slack off for a moment.

Beside the teleportation array, various materials sent from the Great Graveyard were piled up messily, including tools and building materials for building the port, as well as big rockets produced by the "I Think" Group, and some strange new equipment made by the magic workshops of life-profession players, intending to be tested on the battlefield.

Currently, all supplies of the Demon King's Army are transported by this teleportation array.

In order to gnaw down this continent enclosed in the barrier, Luo Yan also spent a lot of money. Just purchasing magic crystals cost several hundred million Kaila, not to mention the military supplies bought with Nether Coins and the tasks issued to players.

Walking slowly to the teleportation array, Luo Yan's gaze fell on the messily placed materials. The acolyte in charge of supervising the transport saw this and immediately stepped forward and said respectfully.

"Reporting to Demon King, the transport of military supplies has been completed, and 60% of the materials used to build the port remain, and all will be in place by the day after tomorrow at the latest."

Luo Yan nodded with satisfaction and said.

"How many rockets are stored in the camp?"

The acolyte immediately lowered his head and responded: "Reporting to Your Majesty, a total of three thousand, all stored in tents outside the camp according to your instructions, ensuring that they will not explode accidentally."

"Very good."

Three thousand.

Should be enough.

Luo Yan, who was thinking this way, waved his hand, signaling the acolyte to go back and continue working, then called out to the distance.

"Alakto, come here."

A commotion came from afar.

Hearing the Demon King's call, the loyal Alakto, like a husky hearing "go out to play", immediately ran over excitedly.

Eight nimble legs waved like the wind, stepping out a wave of earthquake on the ground aggressively, Alakto leaned towards Luo Yan attentively, and bowed respectfully.

"Respected Demon King, is there anything I can do for you?"

"I have an important task for you."

Luo Yan didn't talk nonsense, directly took out a map and threw it on his back.

"Take your spider troops and two thousand ghouls to the forest north of Assam City, find the location marked on the map, build an outpost there, and draw another teleportation array nearby. Remember to be quick, and pay attention to concealment, don't miss my big event."

Hearing that there was an important task for himself, Alakto felt a burst of ecstasy in his heart, hissed in his mouth, and a few small spiders quickly crawled out from under his armpits, nimbly unfolding the map and bringing it to his face.

Staring with six eyes to confirm the location on the map, Alakto's spider body shook, bowed respectfully, and responded like a bell.

"Obey, supreme Your Majesty... Please rest assured! This simple and rough work is just right for our Shadow Weaving clan, I guarantee that in no more than three days, I will turn the forest in front of you into the back garden of the Great Graveyard!"

Looking at the energetic Alakto, Luo Yan couldn't help but worry that he would use too much force, so he added a sentence behind.

"You don't have to build it as my back garden, I just need a launch site... you build it according to the previous standard."

Alakto: "Obey!!!"

The loyal Alakto never hesitated about the Demon King's orders. After receiving the order, he immediately ran into the forest outside the military camp.

Not long after, a large group of cave spiders, accompanied by an undead army composed of lizardman ghouls, marched towards the Sun Staircase Mountains.

Looking at the rolling dust raised in the distance, Luo Yan smiled faintly, paused for a moment, and called out softly to his side.

"Thanos."

As soon as the words fell, an elegant and strange shadow condensed silently beside him, and bowed respectfully.

"Your Majesty, are you looking for me?"

Thanos's voice was deep with fear and caution, forming a sharp contrast with Alakto, who wished to offer his heart to the Demon King.

Luo Yan glanced at the solemn Thanos, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He certainly knew why Thanos was so wary—even afraid of himself. Thinking that the death of Elder Zakro Dragong had caused a considerable psychological impact on this suspicious guy.

"Have you ever been an envoy?"

Thanos was stunned for a moment and said in a low voice.

"Uh, no... Your Majesty."

Luo Yan said casually.

"Then do you want to experience it? Occasionally play different identities."

Thanos wanted to say that he didn't want to at all, but he could feel that the Demon King didn't want to hear this answer, so he could only bite the bullet and say.

"Willing to go through fire and water for Your Majesty."

Looking at the Thanos who was facing a great enemy, Luo Yan smiled faintly, his voice gentle and unquestionable.

"I need you to go on a mission to the Saint Scale Dragon Kingdom for me and convey our will to them—"

"Surrender, or death."

"The wording is casual, with your intelligence, you shouldn't need me to teach you."

Thanos's expression stagnated slightly, and his face was instantly filled with hesitation and embarrassment, as if he were constipated.

He stammered for a while, lowered his head and whispered advice.

"Your Majesty, you... since you don't intend to talk to them, why don't you just fight over? Those lizardmen have attacked us several times... I think talking to them is redundant."

Worried that the Demon King would doubt his loyalty, he hurriedly added a sentence firmly behind.

"If Your Majesty intends to send troops, I am willing to serve as a vanguard and go through fire and water for you!"

He swore that he was definitely not cowardly.

Just felt that there was no need for this at all.

And that was someone else's capital after all, who knows if there are a few chosen ones hiding artifacts inside?

The power of the gods is much more unreasonable than extraordinary power, for example, the madwoman of the Campbell family, clearly only Bronze level, holding a legendary sword and fighting anyone is five-five.

Not to mention that ants can bite an elephant to death.

Luo Yan listened and smiled without saying a word.

Joke.

Of course he knew that he could just fight over, but isn't this to try to see if the opposite side has any other hidden cards?

According to those captives, their General Ku Chaer is a "Saint General" level powerhouse, belonging to the fourth tier, and above this there is "God General" level.

As for whether Assam City has any heaven-defying artifacts hidden, he also wants to know, especially to figure out if the Dragon God really doesn't care about these citizens of His.

So far, these lizardmen are too unbelievably weak.

Better to be cautious.

"I let you go, you just do it." Luo Yan glanced at Thanos casually and said in a calm voice.

The moment he was glanced at by the Demon King, Thanos shook like an electric shock, swallowing a mouthful of saliva with difficulty.

"Obey... Your Majesty."

Compared to deep in the army and face-to-face output, it is clearly more fearful to face the unfathomable Demon King.

Dare not disobey Luo Yan's order.

Thanos retreated timidly, his figure wrapped in robes turned into a group of ethereal black smoke, dissipating silently.

And just at the same time Thanos retreated, Sarah stepped with light steps and came to Luo Yan silently.

Looking up at the Demon King's side face, Sarah whispered softly.

"Demon King, this kind of small matter, you can actually leave it to me..."

That cold face showed a trace of faint loneliness, like a cat that had been left out in the cold, clearly caring, but not wanting to show it.

Luo Yan saw what she was thinking at a glance, reached out and touched her head with a smile.

"Rest assured, there will be times for you to take action later... As for this kind of small matter, leave it to Thanos, this is my test for him."

Thanos, this kind of two-five boy, must be used like this. As for the cat he raised, just practice backflips and help him catch mice.

If there is really a job that needs adventure, he is not at ease to leave it to her.

Sarah looked at the Demon King blankly, although she couldn't understand, but seeing that he said so, she nodded obediently and said nothing more.

In fact, from just now, she had been following the Demon King, guarding around him like a shadow, but still didn't feel Thanos's breath.

That guy is indeed very strong.

It is understandable that the Demon King handed this important task to him.

While Sarah felt regretful in her heart, she also secretly made up her mind to practice harder, strive to help the Demon King as soon as possible, become a capable person, and repay the Demon King's kindness.

Looking at the silent Sarah, Luo Yan felt gratified, but couldn't help sighing.

His subordinates are also interesting.

Platinum level ones are shrinking and looking forward, afraid of blood splashing on themselves, steel silver ones shout and kill all day, wishing to liver and brain to the ground, and immediately offer their hearts to themselves.

If they could neutralize it, it would be fine.

At this time, Okto, who was in charge of patrolling outside the camp, walked from the direction of the main gate of the wall, knelt on one knee, and reported in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, there is a group of lizardmen outside requesting an audience. They claim to be a mission from the Sand Ridge Tribe, from the desert area in the middle of the Gana Continent."

Luo Yan raised his eyebrows slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

"Coming to seek an alliance again?"

Okto shook his head, his tone respectful.

"They didn't mention an alliance, on the contrary, they expressed their intention to submit."

After a pause, he looked at the Demon King who was showing interest and added a sentence in a deep voice.

"In addition, they also offered you the head of the Saint Scale Dragon Kingdom mission."
