Monarch of Evernight: The extremely difficult start of 121

bsp;"That kind of destined fate is not what I want." Zhang Boqian raised his hand, and the jade seal on the table jumped up and fell into Lin Xitang's arms. He raised his head and poured all the remaining wine in the jar into his throat. , puffing up his sleeves and ready to leave.

"Boqian!"

"You are too anxious to centralize power, and you seem to be worried that there is not enough time, but even the battle for national destiny will not take ten years, so what are you really planning?"

Lin Xitang was stunned for a moment.

Zhang Boqian didn't wait for his answer, "What you want to control is not the Imperial Military Region but the Void Floating Land, but I won't let you get it this time." After that, he strode away without looking back.

Lin Xitang stood there, his expression finally changing slightly.

More than half an hour later, Zhang Boqian finished reading the latest battle report in the study, walked to the floating land map hanging on the wall, and pondered for a long time. Whether it came from the military headquarters or Zhang clan's military information, they all explained the floating land of the empire. The situation is not optimistic.

After suffering several losses in Sleep of Behemoths, the Eternal Night Council reacted surprisingly quickly this time, pouring in a large amount of troops in a short period of time. And if the empire wants to have large-scale reinforcements, it will have to adjust its local military region before it can mobilize its strength.

A guard knocked on the door and came in, delivered a sealed metal box with a welded lid, and reported: "There is news from the black market."

Zhang Boqian nodded and waited for the guards to exit before tearing open the thick metal layer, revealing a crystal-clear ring-shaped crystal inside. Crystal is a common medium for the dark race. In fact, all the forbidden life-extending techniques on the black market come from the Eternal Night camp.

Zhang Boqian input a ray of void force, and a drop of blood slowly condensed on the surface of the crystal, and then turned into a cluster of black flames. It turned out to be the aura of the current head of the blood clan Spike clan. This is interesting. An inconspicuous reward he asked someone to post on the black market actually got such a valuable response.

His eyebrows twitched slightly, remembering that Habbs mentioned soul repair in Eye of the Storm, which seemed to be not without purpose. This blood prince seems not as low-key as he appears, and his tentacles are a bit too long in the human kingdom. So what is his purpose in exposing his strength in front of him?

The pattern emerging in the crystal slowly disappeared and returned to its luster and clarity. Zhang Boqian held the crystal and looked at it for a while, then suddenly pressed a little bit of his Dawn Origin into it. With a soft "pop" sound, the crystal shattered into a bubble that reflected colorful colors, and at the same time a hidden message popped out.

That was the will from Prince Habus himself. He said: "Lin Qianye is still alive."

The floating land in the void is hundreds of thousands of miles away. Qianye didn't know that he had attracted a lot of attention from far and near. He looked at the map of the floating land in his hand and contacted the latest battle situation. He felt that the current situation in the empire was not good.

The Luoxia Gorge occupied by the dark race is adjacent to the Gobi Desert. Now that the dark race has mobilized its army to force the White Valve out of the Gobi Desert, the two war zones have been connected.

Both of these two areas are bordered by the Misty Forest, but the reality is unclear at the moment. Qianye is unwilling to move in the forest area too close to Luoxia Gorge. If he bumps into a powerful Eternal Night man, it will be unlucky. .

Qianye's eyes fell on the area west of Luoxia Gorge, where there was a large lake named Xuanguang Lake by the empire. Xuanguang Lake has a radius of hundreds of kilometers and is simply an inland sea. It and the surrounding area are also a major war zone, known as the Xuanguang War Zone.

This Xuanguang War Zone is the place guarded by Zhang Clan. The closer it is to Luoxia Gorge, the more dangerous it becomes. As the number one clan in the empire, Zhang Clan had extraordinary courage. He directly captured the Xuanguang War Zone and then spied on the Luoxia Gorge, the base camp of Eternal Night.

As for Luoxia Gorge, although it is currently under the control of the Yongye camp, it is also classified as an imperial war zone. However, it is controlled by the imperial family, which means that it will be recovered.

Originally, the empire planned in advance and squeezed the dark races into a war zone. The overall situation seemed quite optimistic. Now the rapid fall of the Gobi Desert made Qianye realize that this war might be more difficult than he expected. .

For the next few days, Qianye has been active in the misty forest, killing three reconnaissance troops of the dark race, but there are only two barons in total, and the harvest is very little.

There was nothing going on. Thinking that half a month had passed since joining the war, Qianye decided to go back to the Li family base. On the one hand, he had some explanations, and on the other hand, he also received monthly remuneration and supplies.

When Qianye returned, the Li family's base had completely changed. The entire camp was surrounded by a ten-meter-high wall, with turrets standing every few hundred meters. Looking from a distance, Qianye was even more surprised by the two giant towers nearly a hundred meters high in the middle and rear of the camp. The Li family actually built two power towers, and they were city-level!

This is a big investment, and it also means that the Li family is determined to win this territory.

Qianye verified his identity at the gate of the camp and walked into the base.

This base was built according to the standard of five main divisions with a total of 70,000 people, just like a small city. There are still many places in the base that have not been completed, but looking around, the arms factories, heavy artillery workshops, tank repair workshops, and aerospace craft bases already look very impressive.

Qianye stopped in front of the sign on the main road and saw that the entire base was well planned and completely resembled a military fortress. He silently noted the locations of several open facilities, and then went directly to the debate camp located on the side of the base.

This is the place where the Li family releases intelligence, tasks and cashes out rewards. Next to the debate camp is the arms warehouse, where supplies have been piled up. Most of the rewards can be withdrawn directly from the warehouse. However, the highest quality equipment will naturally not be placed here, it will need to be transported from the Li family empire’s home territory.

There are several halls in front of the debate camp, each targeting experts of different levels. Qianye walked directly past the first two halls that were specially opened for mercenary hunters below war generals and entered the third room.

This mission hall is much smaller than the outer hall, and the decoration is more luxurious. There is even a small bar in the corner of the hall, and several maids are all beautiful. As they walked back and forth, their hips swayed slightly, and the rhythm made the men drinking here almost unable to look away. From time to time, someone would stuff a silver coin into the maid's chest and pinch their buttocks hard.

Qianye's eyes only glanced at the bar before walking towards the back of the small hall. It is divided into several independent small rooms, providing very good privacy.

Qianye walked into an empty room. The furnishings were simple but elegant. Sitting behind the desk facing the door was a young female officer. The specially tailored military uniform highlighted her figure.

When she saw Qianye coming in, her eyes lit up. She immediately stood up, asked Qianye to sit down at the table, and asked, "What can I do for you?"

Qianye put his identity plate on the table and said, "I am Qianye. I am going to hand in my military merits and take a look at the latest battle report."

Seeing the golden sword emblem representing the general on the identity plate, the female officer's eyes brightened even more. She stood up, took out a pamphlet from the cabinet behind her, put it on the table, leaned over and pushed it in front of Qianye, and said softly: "This is the latest battle report, which is the highest level of intelligence. You can check it here Read it, but you can’t take it away.”

She said this very slowly, and from Qianye's perspective, she could almost see the scenery on her chest. Even though Qianye has seen many beauties, he has to secretly praise that her figure is really hot. Only Nangong Xiaoniao can keep her under control.

Faced with such an obvious hint, Qianye just smiled faintly, picked up the intelligence manual and started reading. If it were before, maybe Qianye wouldn't mind developing a romantic relationship with her to relieve the physical and mental fatigue caused by the long battle. But now, Qianye only thinks about Ye Tong, the woman who is quietly waiting for him to return at home.

Seeing that this move was ineffective, the female officer was not discouraged. Instead, she sat back and became dignified and steady, with fire in her eyes. She obviously planned to take Qianye down with cold outside and hot inside.

Qianye was completely unaware of the female officer's fighting spirit. He flipped through the battle report manual. After reading only a few pages, his expression began to become solemn.

These days, the Evernight Council has continuously dispatched floating fleets, and the battles in the void have become increasingly fierce and cruel. Putting together the large and small battle reports, it can be seen that the empire's main fleet lost its mobility for some reason and was forced to gather its forces, wandering in the void, and choose the opportunity to fight the main force of the Evernight Fleet.

In the past half month, such battles have broken out dozens of times. Each side has its own victory or defeat. The empire still has a slight advantage in the battle situation, but the shocking casualty figures are just a tragic victory, and both sides have suffered heavy losses.

At this moment, the empire's main fleet was already struggling to deal with Yong Ye's attacking fleet, and could not spare any force to intercept Yong Ye's landing fleet. This should also be the reason why the two landing fleets that appeared in the Gobi Desert were almost unscathed.

It’s just that the empire’s floating fleet couldn’t control the void battle situation, and the ground battle immediately became extremely difficult.

The White Valve was the first to bear the brunt. Before it could gain a firm foothold, it was uprooted by the dark army with absolutely superior strength. Now not only the fortress where Qianye participated in the war fell, but also another forward base in the war zone could not hold out for a few days. Now the White Valve has withdrawn its entire army from the Gobi Desert.

The life of Zhang Clan, who was guarding Xuanguang Lake, was not easy. Recently, three landing fleets landed at Xuanguang Lake. Coupled with the tens of thousands of troops dispatched from Luoxia Gorge, the number of dark legions assembled in the Xuanguang war zone was as high as A hundred and fifty thousand people!

Although Zhang Clan was strong, the fight was extremely difficult, with over 10,000 casualties since the war began. Being able to persevere under the fierce attack of several times the enemy's force until now, Zhang Clan is truly worthy of being the number one clan in the empire.

However, the number and scale of the army mobilized by the Eternal Night Parliament this time far exceeded anyone's expectations. If the current situation is not fundamentally reversed, even if Zhang Clan loses the Xuanguang War Zone, it will only be a matter of time.

After turning a few more pages, Qianye's face became even more serious. Looking at the entire battle report, it was revealed that in less than a month, the empire that initially occupied almost the entire floating land was suppressed in nearly half of the territory. And the momentum of Yongye's army to increase its troops still shows no sign of stopping. Now, the size of the dark army on the floating continent is very close to that of the empire.

But even Qianye knows that if the empire wants to send another large-scale army increase, mobilization and logistics alone will take at least a month, and there must be troops to send without affecting the local defense.
