Chapter 1045: Like a Fishbone Stuck in the Throat

"Stop!" Gavin didn't talk nonsense to her at all, and directly used absolute control to reduce the dimensionality of her.

He knows the nature of these demons very well. Even if you discuss with them in nice words, even if you propose a plan that is reasonable and beneficial to both parties, they will not believe it or listen.

Until you show your absolute iron fist, they will respect you enough and calm down to listen to what you have to say.

The Queen of Burning Flame, who came through the exchange of interests, has not really suffered through it yet. She still has no clear understanding of Gavin's methods, and she has not yet accurately positioned the relationship between the two parties.

This is also the reason why Gavin imprisoned him directly if he disagreed with her.

In comparison, the King of Bones and the King of Skeleton Dragons who came after hearing the news appeared to be very obedient, even though they were immersed in the joy of growing in strength brought by endless killing.

At their current professional level, it has become extremely difficult to increase each hit die.

Divine power is equivalent to changing a new track and moving forward in parallel, which is relatively simpler.

The King of Giant Bones lowered his posture and asked: "Why did the master give up the opportunity to pursue the victory? Even if these jackals were all transformed into ghouls, they would not be able to withstand the crushing force of our coalition forces.

If they are given a chance to breathe, the King of Jackals will not only recruit a larger army of Jackals, but they will also bring back all the chosen gods and demon incarnations scattered around.

We will face the dual disadvantages of the army and high-end combat power. "

Gavin said solemnly: "You have been dazzled by the victory. Do you really think you are invincible? Do you really think the King of Ghouls will be eliminated by you so easily?"

The King of Giant Bones couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Does Dorison have a back-up plan?"

"Do you know what's the most difficult thing about ghouls?" Gavin asked without answering.

"Paralysis attack?" The King of Giant Bones.

"Reproduction?" King of Skeleton Dragons.

"None of them." Gavin didn't continue to lie, "It's burrowing! Like all undead, they are naturally afraid of the sun, which makes them like to hide in cemeteries, tunnels and caves during the day, and come out at night. action.

Not all places have tunnels and caves suitable for them to live in, so they dig them themselves.

This is the divine kingdom of ghouls. Do you think this characteristic will be reflected in it? "

As enemies of living creatures, the reason why ghouls are difficult to completely eradicate in the material plane is because of this characteristic.

They are intelligent undead and will not fight you foolishly. Once they find that the situation is not good for them.

They will crawl into their own narrow and short nests and follow them into the nests rashly.

The possibility of becoming food for ghouls is far greater than the possibility of destroying them.

If they find that the enemy has the ability to enter their lair, they will do their best to protect several ghouls from escaping or hiding.

Once a ghoul slips through the cracks, they can come back with their own derivative abilities.

The King of Giant Bones said, "Master, you mean that there are a large number of ghoul nests in the ghoul territory, hidden under the ground?"

"If it's just a nest of ghouls, it would be easier to deal with. At worst, it would take a little effort to pull them out one by one. They have been eating and digging here for who knows how many years. Many of the nests have been connected into one piece." Gavin said. With a snap of his fingers, phantom terrain maps appeared in front of everyone.

It was obviously an underground three-dimensional anatomy, full of criss-crossing narrow tunnels.

Gavin even thoughtfully simulated an image of a ghoul and a skeleton soldier, which gave them a more intuitive and clear understanding of these tunnels and lairs.

These tunnels and lairs are clearly tailor-made for the ghouls, who crawl, claw and bite inside on all fours.

Not to mention those six-armed and semi-giant skeleton soldiers, even ordinary skeleton soldiers are a bit high to get in, and it is difficult to stand upright to fight.

The King of Giant Bones understood instantly: "If this kind of ghoul tunnels are densely covered in the entire ghoul territory, both the skeleton giant heavy gunner and the skeleton bombing ability of the shadow aircraft will be greatly reduced.

Moreover, we advanced too quickly and stretched our territory too quickly and narrowly.

If we divide our troops for garrison, our military strength will be greatly reduced.

If we go deep alone and make the territory too narrow, it will be easy for them to cut us off from behind and encircle us in reverse.

So, I finally understand why the King of Gnolls accepted the allegiance of the King of Ghouls instead of completely destroying him.

It's not that he doesn't want to, it's just that he can't do it. These ghouls hiding in the tunnel lair are a disaster for the jackal army. As long as those jackal battle groups are slightly separated from the army, they will find that there are ghouls in all directions.

And here is the kingdom of ghouls. They will either be eaten or become new ghouls. "

Gavin nodded appreciatively and said: "So we must change our strategies and tactics. We can no longer continue to use the road occupation method to advance by leaps and bounds. Instead, we must attack steadily, occupy and digest one place.

I will select a suitable special unit, transform and evolve them, make them suitable for this kind of tunnel combat, and completely eliminate these ghouls. "

The Gray Kingdom is different from the Bone Plains. This place belongs to the Kingdom of God of the Ghoul King. The level of solidification here is far beyond what the latter can compare with.

Even if Gavin possessed the power of undead killing and had a certain degree of suppression on these undead, he could not occupy these ghoul soul pools and take all the corresponding ghouls as his own and make them his soldiers.

Now he has returned to the original path. He must physically remove them all and restore them to the state of soul energy before Gavin can eat them away bit by bit.

Moreover, many of Gavin's abilities are also possessed by the ghoul king, such as directly mobilizing soul energy.

His original plan of quickly occupying the ghoul territory with two routes, the undead killing army and the underground soul energy channel, failed.

The ghoul soul pools he occupied along the way were all empty shells without soul energy.

The only thing to be thankful for is that it is now a war of gods.

Those enemies killed by the undead coalition do not need to be in the territory he occupied. Whether they are gnolls or ghouls, their souls will belong to the undead killing territory as spoils.

Similarly, if the Undead Alliance is killed by the enemy, it will also belong to the gods they are in.

"In fact, there is no need to choose another type of soldiers. Those super shadows are enough for this task. They are shadows, and they can get through any gaps. They are not restricted by tunnels at all. They can completely occupy and control those ghouls, and then turn around to clear out their own people."

Compared with the Skeleton Dragon King, the Skeleton King, who is good at infantry combat, is obviously more concerned about the troops and is familiar with the composition and capabilities of the Undead Killing Corps.

"This is indeed a good choice." Gavin affirmed this suggestion, "For now, we will adopt this tactic. I will see if we can organize more unique and efficient soldiers from the two lords of corpses and burning flames."

The development speed is fast, but there are also disadvantages of fast development speed.

Gavin only took the time to complete the simplest transformation of the two lords of burning flames and corpses. He did not even strengthen the godhood, let alone complete the integration of the two lords' soldiers. He just used them as they were.

"I will fight the way the master tells me to fight." The Bone King had no more objections.

"I have no problem." The Skeleton Dragon King also expressed his opinion.

"You have three tasks now." Gavin gave the order directly, "First, build fortifications on the spot and prepare for the full counterattack of the Ghoul King.

Second, conduct a comprehensive cleanup of the surrounding Ghoul tunnel nests, and if there is a chance, completely destroy them.

Finally, prepare to further integrate and expand the Undead Killing Corps, and the number of the main battle corps will at least double."

"Yes, sir." The two high-level undead lords responded happily.

These three tasks are all what they like.

It's nothing more than shrinking from a full-scale war to a local war.

As long as the killing and plundering continue, they will have a steady stream of divine power.

The undead armies that were originally scattered in three battlefields joined together, which was directly demonstrated through the skeleton road.

The two skeleton roads following the giant bone army and the dragon bone army drew a huge arc circle and merged at the coalition of burning bones and corpses.

The benefits of doing so are obvious. It directly cut off nearly one million square kilometers of territory from the Ghoul Kingdom, which is half the size of the Bone Plain.

The Ghoul King can extract all the soul energy in this territory, but he can't withdraw the ghouls hiding in the ghoul tunnels after the defeat. It is roughly estimated that the number will not be less than one million.

They basically have no escape, and what awaits them will be a planned elimination.

For this kind of mission, even the two Killing God Chosen do not need to be dispatched, and those shadow officers are enough to handle it.

The strategic and tactical transformation of the Undead Killing Territory from full-scale offense to strategic defense made the Ghoul King very uncomfortable.

He has mobilized all the ghouls in the entire Ghoul Kingdom through the hunger sacrifice of the entire jackal army, forming a real sea of ​​ghouls.

Just wait for the enemy to go deep into the kingdom of the ghouls alone, and then use the advantages of the underground, ground and sky, the trinity, to severely dampen the enemy's spirit and let him know that he, the king of ghouls, is not a soft persimmon.

The enemy is doing this now.

Should he charge or not?

If he charges, the underground route in his trinity attack will be useless.

The defilers who occupied his kingdom of God on a large scale could not have failed to discover his ghoul tunnels and nests, let alone keep them for counterattack.

But in the previous war, they had already demonstrated their terrifying bombing capabilities, especially the undead killing corps on both wings.

Each one is a terrifying meat grinder, specializing in restraining the human wave tactics that ghouls are best at.

Often, before the ghoul army approaches the enemy, one-third of the troops are reduced in the bombardment.

That is, ghouls are undead and do not know what fear is.

Otherwise, this round alone would be enough to defeat most of the enemies.

If this intensive ground artillery bombing is a disaster,

Then, the enemy's new type of corpse undead called Shadow Flying Vehicle is a nightmare.

They have both terrifying flying speed and powerful group attack and ground bombing capabilities.

It can be said that they combine reconnaissance, air combat and support bombing.

The only effective tactic against them is to use eternal stagnation or anti-magic area, which can directly limit the source of their ability.

But none of this kind of magic is lower than the eighth ring, and the anti-magic area is not a regular spell. The King of Ghouls is not famous for his spellcasting ability. The spells he casts are very limited, not to mention his priests and believers.

In other words, his believers among the intelligent races are relatively rare, and their IQs are generally low.

Cannibalism is ultimately an unwelcome barbaric culture in civilized society. It is regarded as a symbol of backwardness and barbarism. The audience is relatively small. The more civilized and intelligent, the more difficult it is to accept.

The enemy seems to know his shortcomings in this aspect. As long as they find suspicious places, they will take a detour without hesitation.

The sky is so vast that as long as they don't take the initiative to drill into the trap, even those top spellcasters can't do anything to them.

The most effective way for ordinary ghouls to deal with aerial bombardment is to hide in underground tunnels or nests.

This kind of long-range attack is just the beginning. When they get close to the enemy under the bombardment, the real nightmare begins.

The enemy perfectly combines infantry, cavalry, control and treatment.

With the same number of troops, the casualty ratio will reach a terrifying level. Five ghouls may not be able to kill a six-armed half-giant skeleton soldier.

But those are just the enemy's cannon fodder. As long as the soul energy in the enemy's territory is not drained, there will be as many as needed.

The enemy is now waiting for the enemy to tire, and has shown its advantages to the extreme. It even built simple fortifications on the spot to further magnify its advantages.

For example, the construction of skeleton turrets will raise the position of those skeleton giant heavy gunners, increase their field of vision and bombardment range.

The most fatal thing is that next to those skeleton roads, there are super-giant skeleton statues rising from the ground.

The King of Ghouls will never simply think that the other party does this to show his achievements.

Statues of divine power are usually closely related to faith.

These super-giant skeleton statues must have uses that he doesn't know about, and they are probably closely related to those skeleton roads.

If the enemy wave fails to rush down, the consequences will be disastrous for the King of Ghouls.

This is a process of one side gaining and the other side losing. The enemy will have a stronger force, and he will fall into decline.

If there is no charge, the enemy will calmly complete the integration of the Bone Plain and the occupied areas. The ragtag coalition led by the Queen of Burning Flame will be replaced by this elite undead army one after another.

It is even possible to integrate more new soldiers into it, making the capabilities of these undead armies more diverse and more difficult.

After years of fighting against the four high-level undead lords of the Bone Plain, the King of Ghouls is very clear about their characteristics.

The Giant Bone Territory of the King of Giant Bones is the Giant Bone Law, which is rich in various giant skeletons. Even the skeleton soldiers are half-giants. This has been vividly demonstrated in those six-armed half-giant skeleton soldiers.

The Dragon Bone Territory of the King of Skeleton Dragons is the Dragon Bone Law. The skeleton dragon beasts here are the most difficult to deal with. The defiler has razor skeleton dragon beast cavalry.

The corpse territory of the Corpse King is the corpse law, which is rich in various corpse-related undead, such as zombies, mummies and other undead.

His most powerful point is not the territory law, but that he is a top-level great lich, who can effectively combine his spellcasting ability with the undead territory to create and summon some relatively unique undead.

For example, the skeleton lord, the skeleton warlock or the corpse demon, etc.

This point was erased from the corpse territory with the soul mark of the Corpse King, and the Corpse King himself disappeared without a trace.

This place will be slowly replaced by the flame law of the Burning Flame Queen, and various undead with flame attributes will be abundant, especially ghosts and ghosts similar to the Burning Flame Spirit, which will use flame attacks instead of energy absorption.

If it is used to deal with living things, this change is not necessarily a big advantage, after all, negative energy erosion is more deadly to living things.

But if it is in the undead civil war, this kind of flame attack is obviously more useful.

I believe that the enemy will soon play new tricks on this.

Those undead who have become specious have fully demonstrated a problem, that is, the defiler controls the ability to reshape and promote ordinary undead.

The speculation of the Ghoul King is correct. The first thing Gavin did when he returned to the territory was to merge the four territories into one, so that the special laws of the Undead Killing Territory can completely cover this place.

Here is a point to add.

The special laws of the Undead Killing Territory can take effect simultaneously in all territories controlled by Gavin.

However, the special laws of those high-level undead lords can only take effect in the territories they control, and there is no way to overlap each other.

For example, the six-armed semi-giant skeleton soldiers are only produced in the territory of the Giant Bone King, and they will become ordinary six-armed skeleton soldiers in the Dragon Bone Territory. The razor skeleton dragon beast cavalry is only in the Dragon Bone Territory, and the flame ghost is the specialty of the Flame Bone Territory where the soul of the Burning Flame Queen is synchronized.

For Gavin, who controls the overall power, this problem is not a problem. He can form a joint legion by drawing special products from each territory.

After completely occupying and transforming the two territories of Flame Bones and Corpses, Gavin's undead killing divinity once again doubled, and the number directly soared to 412 points, entering the ranks of the six godheads. The area of ​​the territory he could directly control reached more than 3.3 million square kilometers, with a radius of more than 1,000 kilometers.

But the twenty or so times of territory godhood enhancement that Gavin had expected did not occur.

Or rather, it did occur directly in an ultimate form.

His control and enhancement of the territory had reached the upper limit in all aspects.

The reason why the godhood enhancement occurred before was because the divine power he controlled was too little and did not fully match the territory, in order to better assist him in controlling the territory.

Let's take a closer look at the situation of the complete immortal killing territory. (End of this chapter)
