Chapter 273 The Aqir Zerg Became the Target

Looking at the battlefield littered with corpses, Deer Helmet murmured: "Well, this kind of weapon is indeed powerful!"

However, the power of the long-barreled musket was too powerful, and the orc army was beaten to pieces.

When other troops come on stage, it will be a bit of a stretch.

Fortunately, night elves prefer long-range attacks to destroy enemies.

This model of long-range troops shooting the enemy into a sieve, and then melee troops coming up to harvest the remainder is very to their liking.

Deer Helmet was convinced in his heart, but his mouth was still tough.

"What if the enemy is a silithid? Their carapace is harder than steel armor!"

The personality of a stickler is like this. He will always make a few comments about anything.

Silithid is the name given to the aqir by the night elves.

Maybe it's because the prototype of that thing is a scorpion.

But for the Zerg, which has a full range of arms, it is not appropriate to simply call it the Silenoscorpion.

Therefore, Harad preferred to call it the Aqir Zerg, and then subdivided it according to its shape.

The night elf bosses did not object to this point of view he put forward.

I just changed it, it was just a random name based on my feelings.

The night elves are more concerned about how to effectively deal with those bugs.

Fighting with bugs in that barren desert is definitely a terrible torture!

Herard estimated how difficult it would be for conventional forces to deal with them, and found that these guys were really difficult to deal with.

"The carapace of those bugs is very hard, and their vitality is very tenacious. Moreover, they cannot be killed no matter how hard they are killed. They are indeed very difficult enemies!"

Staghelit was a little surprised by the conclusion given by Herard.

It is hard for ordinary people to imagine how difficult it is to fight insects.

Not only was that thing difficult to kill, but it kept killing people one after another, seemingly endlessly.

This is the conclusion that Staghelm came to with his blood and life in the actual battle with the bugs.

Judging from Herard's accurate description, he has definitely dealt with insects!

Everyone who fights against bugs deserves respect.

After watching the Aqir Hive hunting video played by Harad, Staghelm was full of praise for him.

"You have killed so many bugs, you deserve the title of Quicksand Warrior!"

However, as soon as his words changed, he quickly raised a new problem.

"But this kind of killing speed is still too slow, and it is impossible to withstand the insects head-on.

Is there any very powerful, non-magical range attack method?"

It needs to be very powerful, but not a magic range attack.

In the eyes of other night elf bosses, this request made by Staghelm was just making things difficult.

However, Herard knew that he was simply scared by those Zerg!

If the night elves are willing to accept magical power again, the Zerg really won't be a problem.

However, they chose to abolish their martial arts, and the only casters left were druids and priests.

The druid is in the desert, and 70% of his work is ruined.

Priests who believe in the moon god Elune can obtain powerful divine spells, and their combat effectiveness is far superior to priests of other races.

But this is only very powerful within the circle of pastors.

Casting a spell to guide star fragments to hit the enemy is probably similar to a mage making a fireball.

Except for Tyrande, who can cast Starfall, and Shandris Feathermoon, who can cast Luna Railgun, the other night elf priests are equivalent to half mages.

Group attack methods have always been the shortcomings of the night elves.

You can't always summon the Aspect Dragon to help.

So Herard introduced them to the artillery during the military parade.

"This weapon called an artillery can meet your needs. However, its sound is relatively loud, which may cause some trouble."

The huge iron lump pulled by humans with heavy horses once again entered the sight of the night elf boss.

But there are no real battle scenes.

After all, this thing is fired more than ten or twenty kilometers away from the battlefield.

At most, you can only look at the sound of the cannon being fired, as well as the faintly visible explosion flames and smoke in the distance.

The scenes of cleaning up the battlefield after the war are relatively more convincing.

There are shell craters on the battlefield where corpses can be buried directly.

Looking at the battlefield littered with corpses, even Staghelm was convinced.

But in order to increase his persuasion, Herard decided to let them see the actual combat effect.

"How about we try using bugs? It's very convenient to teleport there."

Everyone had no objection to Herard's proposal.

Soon everyone arrived at Cenarion Fortress located in the middle of the Silithus Desert.

Cenarion Keep is one of the few night elf military bases outside.

Night elves will only set up military bases in areas with great threats.

In this desolate and dead land filled with yellow sand, the number of Aqirs occupying the sky is shocking!

Even though Cenarion Fortress has been continuously suppressed by troops, the Aqir are still slowly expanding their sphere of influence.

In the game, there are three Aqir nests in Silithus.

The number of Aqir hives that exist in reality is more than ten times the number in the game!

There are even insect nests built not far from Cenarion Fortress.

Of course, that kind is also the one that is purged most frequently!

The Yaqirs are all brainless, and it is not difficult to pick up the lone bugs.

Night elf soldiers go there to hunt almost every day.

Carefully lure a few bugs out and kill them before luring the next batch.

Although the efficiency is a bit low, the elimination speed exceeds the reproduction speed of insects.

Over time, the results achieved are impressive.

But for insect nests in remote areas, they have no choice.

Needless to say, the number of bugs in those insect nests that have not been suppressed must be wandering all over the mountains and plains!

Especially the insect nests in the south near the Beetle Wall, the night elf soldiers stationed at Cenarion Fortress have completely given up on eradicating them.

Even if they are equipped with the best quality steel armor, they still don't have the guts to go deep into the south.

Because there are a lot of bugs lurking on both sides of the road that will tear them to pieces!

Seeing the sudden appearance of senior officials and strangers, the soldiers stationed at the fortress were very confused.

Isn’t it time to launch a major pest control operation?

By eavesdropping on the conversations of several high-level officials, the soldiers' doubts were quickly resolved.

It turned out to be a test of a powerful long-range weapon.

How powerful are powerful long-range weapons? Is a ballista powerful?

The soldiers looked at the strangers accompanying them, feeling a little unlikely.

These strangers should be tribesmen who are hiding in some corner and have not been strengthened by the energy of the World Tree.

With your body degraded like this, what powerful long-range weapons can you still use?

The soldiers thought this in their hearts, but did not show any expression on their faces.

They are all old elves who have lived for at least thousands of years, and the city still has this.

Cenarion Keep was built on a hill with a water source.

The nearest insect nest is about 25 kilometers away from here.

Although the distance is close to the limit, it is still acceptable considering the terrain advantage.
