However, just when Li Ran was about to take advantage of the fact that the Muyu clan army had just entered the Black Forest and wanted to launch a general attack to destroy the legion, the sudden arrival of the opponent made Li Ran retreat helplessly.

I originally thought that the arrogance that the high elves used to divide the war into two steps, but the current situation is that they must resist the full attack of the Muyu clan, which is undoubtedly a test for Li Ran's side.

If it is said that for scouts and patrols, the Black Forest here is like a nightmare, but with the powerful force and the help of giant herders, the Black Forest, which was difficult for Li Ran to move forward, did not stop the footsteps of this Muyu clan army.

However, all this was obviously within Li Ran's expectations. After retreating most of the Kuroshi tribe's troops, what Li Ran had to do was to use the defensive worker that had been secretly built here for several years to completely defeat the Muyu tribe who blocked him into the Sunset Mountains.

In fact, according to the thoughts of a group of teammates, when almost all their elite troops were released, they were no less than this Muyu clan in terms of conventional and top-level troops. In addition, they had natural geographical advantages and defensive advantages. Although the opponent was very powerful, winning should not be difficult.

But after the fight started, they realized the difficulties and also understood why Li Ran had taken out the demigod and demon core before, because in addition to the powerful Muyu clan and their five affiliated races, they later discovered many race legions that had not been detected in the opponent's attacking team.

According to Li Ran's estimate, these should be some biological groups further north of the Muyu tribe's territory. Although they are not affiliated races, in order to maintain friendly relations with the overlord, after receiving instructions from the other party, these tribal groups will not give their all, but they will definitely not dare not come easily.

Among the biological arms that came to support, there are smart groups like Green Dragons and Giants that are common with good relationships with the elves, as well as some beast-shaped groups like Red Flame Lions and Bloodthirsty Rhinos that are driven by instinct, and some of them are powerful groups that Li Ran and others have never seen before.

Among these unseen tribes, there are two who impressed Li Ran and his teammates the most, one of which is the Scorpio tribe among the many semi-scorpion races.

Unlike the giant scorpion with the upper body and lower body that had been seen in the Titan War Bear before, the warriors of this Scorpio clan are all female, except for the fact that the claws replace their hands, their appearance characteristics are obviously more inclined to humans and elves in terms of body.

It is worth noting that if they look like humans and dark elves, they think that this kind of female troops is easy to bully. In addition to being comparable to the height of a giant, whether it is her agile skill and her body that is immune to partial attacks, they can become the top warriors. As for the slender axe spear in her hand, it can easily split all enemies' bodies.

And the most important thing is that if you see the huge axe in her hand, you will be wrong when you decide they are warriors. In addition to being immune to some low-level spells and even some physical damage to the body, every Scorpio warrior has the ability to attack toxins. Whether it is the axe spear in her hand or the close combat after being forced, their attacks will come with powerful toxins.

And in addition to these talent abilities, what they most despaired the opponents they are against is that in addition to being an outstanding warrior, every adult Scorpio warrior is also an excellent summoner. They will summon one to three giant Scorpios who are not below them in battle depending on the situation.

Such powerful innate abilities determine that these Scorpio warriors have the legendary strength when they are adults. If they can summon giant Scorpios, some of them can even fight against ordinary epic-level troops. But what is puzzling is that these Scorpio adult warriors who are taller than giants have higher levels, their size will become smaller and smaller. If you see Scorpio warriors who are similar to ordinary human races, they are likely to be above epic-level.

The emergence of these Scorpio warriors undoubtedly brought a lot of trouble to their side, especially when their number reached more than 1,000 people, even Li Ran had to draw an elite Shura King to be on guard at all times.

Another unprecedented military service that Li Ran and others paid more attention to was a guy with almost no attack power. They were half-statues and half-mechanical, only the size of an egg, and they looked a bit like an eye demon in the underground world, but also had a pair of bird wings and human arms. The shape was very strange. It was not until after reading various information that Li Ran and the others found the source of these guys, which may have come from a plane product famous for forging.

It can be said that these strange creatures called the Arbiter cannot be considered real soul creatures, and they are somewhat similar to the flesh and blood golems and steel golems, but are more accomplished by relying on the superb and unique forging skills of this mysterious plane.

Although they are only at the lowest level and will not bother Li Ran from a combat perspective, their tiny bodies hide amazing reconnaissance capabilities. In addition, they are extremely fast, so they can directly penetrate the rear of the battle camp in the battlefield, and transfer their opponents' real-time troops and division status on the battlefield to the Muyu clan in advance, otherwise they would not be in a stalemate.

In order to solve these guys who are small but extremely fast, and who are still in the best condition even when flying for a long time at high speed, Li Ran has put a lot of effort into it. However, as long as dozens of such guys are flying over the battlefield, all his actions cannot be hidden from the other party's eyes, including the opening of the fortification, the crossbow carts there being replaced with magic arrows, the corps are preparing to charge, etc., the other party will make corresponding preparations and countermeasures in time.

It can be said that these inconspicuous guys caused trouble to their side, not even the sum of all the reinforcements of the Yu Muyu clan. Seeing that Liuyun Fubao and Angel Corps, who were flying the fastest on their side, had no choice but to deal with them, even Li Ran felt helpless.

Fortunately, in the battlefield where wars are raging, in addition to the stray bullets and fire arrows, there are still some troops that can cause fatal damage to them, such as the shadow warriors who suddenly walked out of the void, and the top elf magic shooters, who often can deal with these guys with just one blow after they get the chance.

On the other hand, their number does not seem to be very large. Just when this stalemate war lasted for nearly a week, Li Ran also noticed that the number of these guys had dropped sharply. When they were worried that they would slow down, Li Ran took this opportunity to order all the legions hidden in underground working hours to launch a full-scale attack.

As for the Muyu clan, they never expected that in this war that seemed to be stalemate but actually still had the initiative, this enemy who emerged from it could still hide nearly 50,000 high-level troops.

It is impossible to retreat safely at this time. In the end, under the pursuit of the other party, their powerful legion, which reached 150,000 people during the expedition, was in the end, except for those who were killed and captured in the past few days, and in the end, they only retreated less than 50,000 people.

But in Li Ran's opinion, although the march was very cautious, this high elf still lost to his inner arrogance. If they could not choose to retreat immediately for the sake of face, they would not dare to pursue themselves well while defending their territory, in addition to their five affiliated races, there were so many powerful ethnic forces that could be allocated. If they used it well, it would be hard to say the outcome of this war.

However, at this moment, Li Ran would never give the other party a chance to turn the tables. Although he knew it was still dangerous, after only two days of rest, Li Ran took all his troops to the territory of the Muyu clan and captured the place after three days of war.

Because he did not understand the situation ahead, and after seeing the reinforcements from the opponent before, Li Ran did not send a soldier to chase some of the fleeing Muyu soldiers. Instead, he quickly returned to the front and was ready to face the enemy again.

Sure enough, just after he occupied the place, the detention scout came to find some reconnaissance creatures visiting the place, and the most frequent of these were undoubtedly the Scorpio warriors I had seen on the battlefield before.

Maybe seeing that they were prepared here, and the remaining troops were quite complete, these tribes that they thought Li Ran was not aware of finally gave up taking advantage of the situation. After a few days of alert and after all the soldiers were rested, Li Ran finally felt relieved.

As for the next first step, it was nothing more than recruitment and the intelligence of unknown areas ahead. The teammates, including the leaders of various legions, were already very familiar with this. In addition, although the Muyu clan was stubborn, the four major affiliated races that surrendered first, except the unicorn clan, also gave them a lot of information.
