Chapter 290: There is no way to deal with a small Star Alliance

"The Star Alliance has captured the Ulan plane."

Gavin looked particularly complicated when he heard the news from Bryce.

In fact, as early as when he heard that Luke had died in battle, he had guessed that the Covenant would one day take over the Ulan plane.

But when this actually happened, he couldn't help but sigh.

When he first cooperated with the Star Alliance, Gavin's expectation for the Star Alliance was only to contain the forces of Ulan, Manluo and Xige. However, he did not expect that the Star Alliance not only did it perfectly, but also exceeded the quota. Captured the Ulan plane.

Bryce's expression was also full of amazement, and he said with emotion: "I really didn't expect that the Star Alliance could capture the Ulan plane. Obviously, the Star Alliance's military strength was not dominant at the beginning, and was even at a disadvantage. Who would have thought that they could come back in the end? ”

"The strength of the Star Alliance is improving too fast." A sigh flashed in Gavin's eyes, "Other people in the war will become weaker and weaker as they fight, but the Star Alliance is better. The more they fight, the stronger. He gradually became no match."

Bryce wondered: "The Star Alliance can develop and grow rapidly because of the support of a large amount of magic stones. I just don't know where they got so many magic stones?"

Gavin thought thoughtfully: "Perhaps a large amount of magic stone veins were discovered in a certain plane."

In the past, a certain wizard force was lucky enough to find a large amount of magic stone veins in a certain plane, and thus got on the fast train of rapid development.

This kind of example is not one or two in the multiverse. Bryce thought about it and felt that this was probably the reason.

"In any case, the Star Alliance's capture of the Ulan plane will be of great benefit to us."

"When this news reaches the headquarters of Black Sol Tower, it will probably prompt Black Sol Tower to dispatch more troops into the Xi Ge plane and the Man Luo plane. This will make it easier for us."

A gloating smile appeared on Gavin's face.

"I can already imagine Lucius's ugly face."

As Gavin expected, Lucius was in a very bad mood now.

He hadn't thought that Black Sotha might lose a certain dimension in this war, and he had prepared for the worst.

I just broke his head, but I didn't expect that it would be the Covenant who originally looked down upon him and conquered the first plane of Black Sol Tower!

This shocked and angered him.

At this time, the atmosphere in the conference hall was as stagnant as ice.

All the senior officials of Black Sol Tower were either frowning or looking solemn, and they were all silent.

At the beginning of the war, they still did not feel that the Covenant would become a threat, and unanimously decided to deal with the Ten Thousand Birds first.

As a result, the development of the situation severely slapped them in the face. On the contrary, it was the Covenant that was least valued, and took the lead in causing Black Sol Tower to suffer a big loss.

After a long time, Lucius broke the silence and said, "Let's talk about it. What are we going to do next?"

A wizard coughed lightly and said: "I think it's better to deploy some troops to support the Xige plane and the Manluo plane. If the three planes are attacked at the same time, the Star Alliance can capture the Ulan plane." , now there are only two planes left, and they are probably no match for the Star Alliance.”

However, as soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately retorted.

"I don't agree with this. We have finally suppressed the Ten Thousand Headed Birds now. If we send some troops to leave, it may give the Ten Thousand Headed Birds a chance to counterattack, and the situation may get out of control!"

"But if we don't provide support, once the Xige plane and the Manluo plane are captured and the Covenant turns to support Ten Thousand Headed Birds, the situation will become worse!"

"In my opinion, we should mobilize the main army directly, deal with the Star Alliance first, and then go back to deal with the Ten Thousand Birds."

"No, this is completely self-inflicted. Wan Tou Niao is not a fool. He must have been prepared to prevent us from doing this. Once we draw away the main army, Wan Tou Niao will definitely take the opportunity to intensify the offensive, and maybe it will happen again. The situation of Lan Plane being captured.”

"Then what do you think we should do?"

Everyone's chatter gradually turned into a quarrel.

When Lucius heard this, his face became more and more ugly and gloomy, and at the same time he felt helpless deep in his heart.

He suddenly discovered that Black Sotta was helpless against a small Covenant!

No matter what you do, there is a high probability that the situation will become worse.

The small, third-rate wizarding force that used to fill him with disdain now gave him a huge headache.

"Okay, shut up!"

Lucius shouted impatiently, suppressing all the sounds in the hall.

He looked around coldly and said coldly:

"Deploy part of the army to support the Xig plane and the Manluo plane, and let Heimdall and Quven defend the planes. If the Xig plane and the Manluo plane fall into the hands of the Star Alliance, they will not be needed. Back."

"As for the main army, continue to deal with thousands of birds!"

Although the Covenant is a headache, the Thousand-Headed Bird is obviously a greater threat to Black Tower.

Once the situation is disrupted and Ten Thousand Birds take advantage of it, Black Sotha may face a crisis of destruction.

Then it won't be a matter of losing one or two planes.

In any case, the threat of thousands of birds cannot be ignored.

To take a step back, as long as they can gain an advantage on the frontal battlefield against Ten Thousand Headed Birds, they can allocate part of their troops to support the Xige and Manluo planes.

Regarding this, Lucius felt that Black Tower could still do it.

The premise is that the Xige plane and the Manluo plane can support it until then.

Ulan plane, Ulan city.

In the study room of the City Lord's Mansion, Su Nan sat behind the desk and listened to Lize's report on the recent situation.

After conquering the Ulan plane, the Star Alliance did not rush to fight in the Xige plane or the Manro plane, but calmed down to digest the results of the battle and integrate the Ulan plane, and only transferred part of the army to support the Scepter and Fakado.

After more than half a year of integration, the Star Alliance has basically controlled the entire Ulan plane and eliminated the various influences left by the Black Sota.

As one of the main planes controlled by the Black Sota, the resource richness of the Ulan plane is far greater than that of the Wave Plane, and is even better than the Starlight Continent, which has gradually recovered its abundance and has been operated and developed by the Star Alliance for a long time.

Apart from anything else, the two medium-sized magic stone veins and one small magic stone vein alone are very surprising.

In addition, the most valuable is the human race in the Ulan plane.

Whether it is to cultivate wizards or to cultivate the Knight Corps, the first prerequisite is to have enough population.

Therefore, in the wizard world, planes with human civilization are often more valuable than planes of the same size with non-human races.

For example, although the Wolf Tide Plane has a biological nest as a war weapon, if Sunan is allowed to choose, he prefers a plane with a similar area and a human race.

The latter often means more wizards (apprentices) and magic pattern knights.

"Although the Black Sota has squeezed the Ulan Plane very hard, it is still willing to invest."

Liz put down the documents in her hand and said with a smile:

"The overall quality of the human race in the Ulan Plane is very good. On average, there are seven or eight knights in a thousand people, and three or five wizard apprentices in ten thousand people."

The Star Alliance has established a large number of knight academies in the Starlight Continent, and has planted and improved dragon blood fruit on a large scale and promoted it throughout the continent. After thousands of years of operation, the proportion of knights is only 2000-3000.

The proportion of wizard apprentices is even lower, barely reaching one in ten thousand.

In comparison, the average quality of humans in the Ulan Plane is very eye-catching.

But it is normal to think about it carefully. After all, the Ulan Plane is not like the Starlight Continent, which has just lifted the plane blockade for a few hundred years. It has been operated by the Black Sota for thousands of years, and the overall environment is naturally better.

"If we manage the Ulan plane well, the number of wizards in the Star Alliance will definitely increase significantly in one or two hundred years!" Liz smiled.

The Star Alliance is not short of resources now. As long as there is a sufficient population, a large number of wizard apprentices can be trained soon.

With the increase in the base number of wizard apprentices, the number of wizards will naturally grow rapidly.

"How are the captured wizard towers being repaired?"

"They have all been completely repaired. They were all exchanged as soon as they were put on the exchange list. Many people failed to grab them and are clamoring to quickly enter the Xige plane and Manro plane to seize more wizard towers."

Sunan laughed dumbly.

Sure enough, war is the driving force of development.

"What about the upgrade of the wizard tower?"

"It's going smoothly. Basically all wizard towers have upgraded their elemental pools and long-range firepower. The people below are very active in this regard. After all, it is related to whether they can earn more contribution points in the next war."

"The protective energy field of the maze is relatively small. Only about one-third of the people have exchanged for the enhanced version of the device, and even fewer have exchanged for other facilities."

Su Nan nodded slightly.

After all, the time is too short, and the number of various enhanced wizard tower facilities is still a bit small, not enough to cover all wizard towers in the Star Alliance.

But even so, the combat effectiveness of many wizard towers has been improved to a higher level.

The Star Alliance now has a total of 44 wizard towers, and the number of star fortresses has increased to 68.

The flying fleet suffered heavy losses in the war a while ago and has not recovered yet. Currently, there are only 12 fleets left.

However, in terms of war creations, the Star Alliance is enough to crush the Xige plane and the Manro plane.

"We must continue the development of the Wulan plane and cannot fall behind."

"But it's time to enter the Xige plane and the Manro plane."

Lize asked: "Which plane should we focus on next?"

Sunan had already made up his mind and said without thinking: "Xige plane."

Unlike the Wulan plane, although there are human races living in the Xige plane, there are not many of them and they are not the mainstream race.

Among them, the mainstream race of the Xige plane is a sub-human race called dragon orcs, creatures with both dragon and orc blood.

Adult dragon orcs have the power of knights and are extremely fierce and powerful.

It is a race that is very suitable for being soldiers.

The disadvantage is that the upper limit of power is not high.

Limited by the weak dragon blood in their bodies, dragon orcs can only reach the fourth ring legendary realm at most. There has never been a strong man at the level of blood knight or elemental knight, let alone wizard level.

In the past, wizards also conducted biological transformation experiments on dragon orcs, hoping to break through the upper limit of power and reach the wizard level.

But in the end, the experiment was abandoned halfway through.

If you want the dragon orcs to break through the upper limit of their power, you must first increase the concentration of dragon blood in their bodies.

But if that's the case, why not just use sub-dragon species to breed a dragon?

The latter may be even cheaper.

In general, the dragon orcs are a biological race that doesn't have much potential, but is still quite useful.

The mainstream races in the Manro plane are various giants, such as plateau giants, sand giants, hill giants, forest giants, swamp giants, etc.

These giants can generally reach the level of great knights or even legendary knights.

A few leader-level giants even have powerful strength to compete with wizards.

The disadvantage is that the reproduction rate is not high.

According to the report of the scepter, the total number of giants in the Manro plane does not exceed two million, and the proportion of warriors is only about half.

In addition, the environment of the Manro plane is relatively harsh, and the resources are not as rich as those in the Xige plane, and it is completely incomparable with the Ulan plane.

The Xige plane at least has two small magic stone veins, but the Manro plane has none.

After comprehensive consideration, Sunan decided to take the Xige plane as the second target of attack.

Taking this resource-rich plane earlier can also be developed earlier.

Seeing that Sunan had made a decision, Liz had no objection.

As the order was issued, the Star Alliance army quickly started to operate.

Just in case, Sunan left three wizard towers, eight star fortresses, a golem army and two magic pattern knight corps to guard the Ulan plane.

In addition, three wizard towers, ten star fortresses and two flying fleets were sent to support the Manro plane.

The rest of the army all marched into the Xige plane.

After nearly ten years of war, although the Scepter failed to gain an advantage in the Xige plane, it also gained a firm foothold and conquered a territory of more than 50,000 square kilometers.

With sufficient buffer areas, the Star Alliance army does not need to rush to transport troops when entering the Xige plane this time.

Upon arriving at the Xige plane, Sunan came to the Star Alliance army station as soon as possible.

The Scepter and his wizards were already waiting in the meeting hall.

"My lord!" Everyone bowed and saluted

Sunan waved his hand, indicating that he did not need to be bound by etiquette. After sitting down at the head, he asked about the situation of the Xige plane as soon as possible.

The Scepter was well prepared and said slowly: "The acting ruling force of the Xige plane is an empire established by dragon beastmen and with dragon beastmen as the main ruling class. However, in my opinion, it is more like a super-large tribe, with a total population of at least 20 million, and a formal army of about 3 to 4 million."

Adult dragon beastmen have at least knight-level strength. In other words, these 3 to 4 million troops are all knight-level.

But the people present didn't care.

After all, including the troops that were about to be transported in, the Star Alliance had a total of three golem armies in the Xige plane, which was three million knight-level combat power.

Not to mention the Magic Pattern Knights and the Black Wolf Pack.

More importantly, the Dragon Orcs couldn't pull all their troops to fight, and they had to keep some troops to guard their home base.

It was already very good to have three million troops that could really be used to fight the Star Alliance.

In terms of ground troops alone, the Star Alliance was only stronger than the Dragon Orcs. (End of this chapter)
