Chapter 586, Shock From Eilistraee
In Aaron's opinion, the defense system of Menzoberranzan is second only to the Imperial Palace designed by Dorne.
The entire city is shrouded in a huge wall that is high outside and low inside. The overall defense capability can be described as indestructible, especially behind the solid high walls, there are family fortresses, bastions and dense crossfire networks of major families waiting for the coalition forces.
The drow society designed by Rose is like this. Everyone is born in a highly involutionary society. Personal safety cannot be adequately guaranteed. From the beginning, it is destined that the big fish eat the small fish and the small fish eat the shrimp. Even a small family has risen in countless bloody storms. If it is a big family, it must have experienced countless wars and annexed more small families to have its current status.
What every family has to do after rising is to strengthen its family defense and ensure the safety of its core members.
This makes siege a very, very difficult thing.
But why do Aaron and Eilistraee think that as long as the city wall can be broken, the drow will have no defense?
In fact, the reason is very simple.
Because the drow are not united at all!
At this time, there is a huge external enemy oppression. The drow can temporarily rely on the Matron Council to unite against the "Whip of Rose", but once the city wall is breached, the major families can only retreat to their own family castles. In the case of Rose's silence, the drow will instantly split into selfish ghosts who only care about self-preservation. The overall defense of the city will fall apart with the fall of the city wall, and the major families will only think about self-preservation and escape.
This is also the consensus of the siege army, that is, as long as the city wall can be breached, this ten thousand year city in the dark region can be captured!
But how easy is this?
In front of the giant wall dozens of meters high is an unfathomable moat. The depth of one of them that cannot be seen at a glance makes people suspect that falling into it may directly fall into the bottomless abyss. Unless they have the ability to fly, any soldier who dares to directly attack the city wall will be terrified as soon as he sees it.
The oppressive feeling of the moat greatly destroyed the psychological defense line of the attackers. The attackers knew that the moat could not be filled or covered, and they would fall into it if they were not careful, leading to a brand new world of unknown place.
Of course, powerful professionals can use levitation or flight to fly over, but such targets are too conspicuous, so conspicuous that they will be locked by the destructive firepower on the city wall.
So, how did the drow pass through the city wall?
It's very simple. Under the city wall made of huge stones and refined gold, there are some narrow bridges. These narrow bridges are also made of refined gold. They can only accommodate three people walking side by side, and there are no guardrails. The drow on the city wall must have a way to disintegrate the narrow bridge in an instant. Even if magic is used to control the narrow bridge, the drow army is already ready on the huge city wall made of refined gold and mithril at the end of the bridge.
The gates, walls, bridges, moats, and the buildings themselves have been carefully enchanted and wrapped in layers of protective spells. All these protective measures are cast by the successive powerful mistresses.
"I feel that compared to this city, our Susal walls are like the fences of a low-level civilization."
After carefully inspecting the city defense for a while, Aaron's cousin Maximian said helplessly: "I can't think of how to attack the city."
"Are the fine gold and mithril in the Underdark free?" It was the first time for Duke Kayneth to come to the Underdark. He brought 3,000 elite family members this time. He knew very well that if he could not perform well in this battle, he might not have a place in the core circle of the Cormier Empire in the future.
Like him, Duke Gordon also brought 1,500 elite family members. All members of the Marelli family were dispatched, but even the most elite family guards could not cut the fine gold gate with their extraordinary weapons.
"Don't panic, Aaron has a way." The great dragon Egil put her hands on her hips. She pursed her lips at the 30-meter-high super-large statue of Eilistraee behind the camp, and Rose under Eilistraee's feet: "What you have to do is wait for us to be ready, and then listen to our orders. When Aaron says to start the attack, you start the attack."
"But how should we do it specifically?"
The Grand Master of the Purple Dragon Knights, Shawar, subconsciously looked at Aaron and Nesstia who were fiddling with something in front of the statue.
"Divine magic, divine magic that belongs only to Aaron."
The siege of Menzoberranzan lasted for three days and three nights.
The drow's resistance was very fierce. On the outer wall, the elite of the major Menzoberranzan families came out. Drow warriors, ogres, trolls, mages, spider elves, slaves and male and female mages formed the backbone, and some of Rose's priestesses also joined the battlefield in person.
The divine magic is gone, the blessing is gone, but the mistresses are still excellent warriors and murderous executioners.
Through proper internal cleansing, some of the slaves and kobolds who were ready to make trouble were killed. The morale of the remaining slave army was temporarily maintained. With the advantage of geographical location and long-range firepower like a waterfall, which was accumulated over hundreds to ten thousand years, the besieging army could not shake the defense line of Menzoberranzan except for sending heads meaninglessly.
The offensive was frustrated and the morale was also hit. Some mixed evil people had begun to waver. The derro dwarves and orcs sent messengers to ask Aaron.
Surface people, what should we do?
This is different from what we agreed!
Aaron asked them to relax.
Because he was about to be ready.
666+777+888+999 drow heads were cast into four different temples. The bloodthirsty demon Aaron, the ever-changing demon lord Aaron, the unclean one Aaron, and the secret-keeper Aaron each held giants. Axes, staffs, big swords and long swords pierced into the capital.
This was the last time Aaron prayed for the power of the Four Gods of Chaos.
The moment he captures Rose's [Chaos], the moment he reveals the truth that he has become a god, the grace of the four gods of chaos will officially leave him, and a grand invasion is about to come.
Only by defeating the army sent by the four gods can he be recognized by the four gods and officially become the fifth god of chaos!
Four large-scale Chaos sacrificial rituals were carried out at the same time. In front of Eilistraee's colossus, the four gods' brands glowed together.
The voice of prayer spread throughout the warp, and Aaron's voice was heard by the four gods of Chaos: Khorne's Brass Throne, Tzeentch's Crystal Lotus, Nurgle's Garden Cauldron, Slaanesh's Six-ring Theater.
A sweet offering.
"Change is a good thing!" Sitting on the crystal lotus platform, the All-Changing Demon King held a flower and smiled. He held the "Brahma" seal in his hand, recited the Three Pure Mantras in his mouth, and wrote Gnostic characters with his thoughts. Nordic The War Cry tells the story of the Shepherds and the Virgin Mary in the Crystal Maze.
A winding staff of flying flames appeared in front of Tzeentch, and the Demonic Bird God grabbed the staff and threw it.
"Make the statue bigger!"
Travel through the crystal maze, through the Chaos Demon Realm, through the subspace, through the endless chaotic storm and the boundless astral void.
The Staff of Flying Flame fell to the ground and was inserted in front of the stone statue in the Underdark. The Eye of Tzeentch opened, followed by lightning and fire.
The drow mages in Menzoberranzan were the first to sense that something was wrong. When they set their sights on the Cormyr camp, a sense of horror that swallowed their brains and clenched their hearts made every drow collapse. Breathe the cool air!
Without any precautions or worries, the 100-meter-tall statue of Eilistraee appeared in front of Menzoberranzan with a whoosh!
Rose is on top!
Supreme Spider Queen, please take care of your daughter! What on earth does she want to do when you are not here?
The people on the surface actually made such a 100-meter statue overnight and transported it directly to Menzoberranzan? !
The drow were horrified, but saw with their own eyes that the statue of Eilistraee actually moved!
The 100-meter-tall statue comes alive!
I saw the statue of Eilistraee with Lolth on its feet striding towards the city of Menzoberranzan. Every time he took a step, the earth shook and the mountains shook, causing fatal damage to the morale of the drow who defended the city. Strike!
retreat! retreat! retreat!
Seeing the hundred-meter statue approaching them, the drow warriors scrambled to retreat. In the panic, someone saw the eyes of the Eilistraee statue beginning to shine. This was an extremely ominous sign. All the drow matrons They still haven’t figured out what this statue is for and what she can do, but their reason tells them that there is absolutely no good juice to eat!
For a moment, the firepower in the city poured madly towards the Eilistraee statue, but compared to the hundred-meter-tall giant god soldier, these spells seemed too weak.
And as the eyes of the Eilistraee statue became brighter and brighter, the drow finally knew what it was.
Two scorching laser molten streams erupted from the eyes of the Titan Soldier, sweeping along the outer high wall. The deadly molten stream of blazing white light of destruction mixed with a strong aura of death moved along the city wall, and it felt like It's more like a disaster thrown directly from the plane of fire element!
Sweeping his left eye to the right and his right eye to the left, in a few breaths, hundreds of drow soldiers and slaves on the city wall were all reduced to smoking slag, as if there was an invisible giant death on the city wall. Wielding a hundred meter long death scythe.
All dead.
Not even a chance was given, leaving only the remains of the body shaking in the scalding heat, and a handful of lucky ones who jumped off the city wall immediately and fell into the bottomless abyss of the moat, screaming in despair.
This of course caused panic among the Drow family.
The priests screamed and forced a group of reserves to rush up the city wall to prevent the enemy from attacking.
However, no one wanted to go up.
Everyone is retreating, the slaves are retreating, the drow warriors are retreating, even the drow matrons are retreating!
"Wow, what a powerful magic!"
The Cormyrs and Chaos Dwarves were stunned when they saw this scene. Everyone was speechless and speechless. Only the well-informed Nestia smiled and hugged Aaron's shoulders: "You use Eilistraee's Image, have you asked her for copyright? "
"Of course it has to be passed, and more than that, I have definitely restored the entire size 1:1, and every detail has been carefully polished." Aaron smiled and gestured with his hands: "I personally measured some places with my hands. of."
"Hahahahaha~ You did a good job, you did a good job, Aaron!" Nastia couldn't help but kiss Aaron on the face. The dark elf sister said proudly and maliciously: " But this is not enough. You not only have to test everything about this Bichi with your hands, but you also have to test it inside out, and then ruthlessly abandon it after it is a waste!"
Nestia's words made the Eilistraee believers next to her very angry, but they dared not say anything because they had all received the oracle from the Dark Maiden, requiring them to unconditionally cooperate with all Aaron's actions.
There are already rumors that the goddess is getting married, which shows that Eilistraee is really trying her best.
So, is Aaron worthy of Eilistraee? Is he really qualified to marry the goddess? Can Aaron really blackmail Eilistraee and let a goddess sell herself out in exchange for what may be the only chance to defeat Rose in this life?
Really.
The Dark Maiden believers dared not even fart. Their food was supplied by Aaron, their weapons and equipment were given by Aaron, the tens of thousands of surface troops next to them were recruited by Aaron, and even the current situation of 100,000 soldiers besieging the city of Morzoberranzan was planned by Aaron.
After defeating Rose, what should these Eilistraee believers do in the future? It is very likely that they will have to rely on Aaron's support.
There is no way, the goddess has agreed.
The Dark Maiden believers silently imagined that the statue of Eilistraee made an "OK" gesture, and they were relieved. They declared reconciliation with themselves.
This kind of marriage is good.
And the repentant daughter Helist has a new understanding.
The sacred and great image of Eilistraee collapsed in Heliste's heart. She was now extremely sure that the Dark Girl had sold ditches to Aaron!
She understood.
The essence of the world is ditches! The history of mortals is the history of ditches!
Great, I gradually understand everything!
The attack of the Eilistraee Giant God Soldier continued. After a pair of laser eyes swept across, the second round of attack began.
This time, the drow made the largest-scale counterattack, and all kinds of delayed burst fireballs, meteor explosions, withering death spells, burning clouds spells, exile spells, rainbow light jets, and imprisonment spells were thrown at the Eilistraee Giant God Soldier.
However, if the Giant God Soldier created by Aaron with the power of the four gods was destroyed so easily, wouldn't the Chaos Four Gods be a joke?
Well, although the four gods are indeed quite funny at many times, the value of the four good brothers is reflected at this time.
These magics can only make the body of the Eilistraee Giant God Soldier shake, and they are useless.
Then, the 100-meter-high colossus took a deep breath.
The terrifying breath of death spread instantly.
Sky Tribulation Magic, Breath of Nurgle (Overnight Version).
In the fan-shaped area within three kilometers, the strong breath of Nurgle swept through one area after another. All creatures were rapidly corrupted, mutated and melted under the breath of Nurgle. Except for the legendary strongmen, any mortals did not even have the chance to pass the judgment and were killed instantly.
The morale of Menzoberranzan collapsed instantly.
"Pass my order, the whole army advances!" Aaron drew out the Dark Moon Sword and pointed directly at Menzoberranzan.
"Kill!!!"
The rainbow bridge composed of light curtains crossed the bottomless moat. The Chaos Dwarves and the Komir army were in high spirits and rushed towards Menzoberranzan.
Menzoberranzan, known as the strongest city in the Underdark and standing for thousands of years, was broken in three days.
