At this moment, there were already over a thousand dark elves armed with long bows, exuding a chilling aura.

Most of these dark elves had reached the gold level, while the rest were basically silver level beings.

After learning about the strength of the orc army that had come this time, Melia knew that any strength below silver level would be useless in this war.

Therefore, she assigned all dark elves below silver level to logistics.

Don't think that dark elves only need to stand and shoot arrows.

They need logistics because they use physical arrows.

So, someone is needed to transport them.

And as for the production of arrows, it's not very difficult.

Luckily, the blacksmith shop built by Yayua before could handle it.

Moreover, due to the simplicity of the arrow making process, the stock of arrows in the shadow realm was also quite substantial, enough for Yua to wage a war on the scale of tens of millions.

Master, is that your newly built thing? Standing on the city wall, Melia's gaze fell on a tall structure next to the city gate.

She had never seen this before, so it was easy to guess that it was just built by Yayua.

Hearing Melia's inquiry, Yua did not hide it, smiling and nodding, and introduced the capabilities of the shadow defense tower to her.

With this good thing, the defense of the shadow realm could be said to have increased directly by 50%.

Even if the other party had extraordinary combat power, they wouldn't te be able to enter the city.

After hearing Yu's introduction of the shadow defense tower, Melia's eyes lit up.

The shadow defense tower was indeed a good thing.

Not only did it integrate attack and defense, but it could also provide an energy shield for the territory, which was crucial for the current shadow realm.

In fact, Melia had already noticed this issue before.

Although the troops in the shadow realm and the lord as strength were very powerful, the city s own defense was too weak.

If the troops and the lord in the territory were not present, then this city had no defense whatsoever.

As for those arrow towers, they could only be used to scare people.

They were useless against real experts.

But now with the shadow defense tower, it was different.

Its attack and defense range were extensive.

It not only enveloped the city, but also had extraordinary attack power.

As long as an existence didn't te reach that level.

There would just be nothing in front of the shadow defense tower.

Right.

I think so, too.

But it's a pity that if there were rune walls and territorial defense formations, then the shadow realm would be truly impregnable.

Ya thought the same, but upon realizing that the city walls he was currently standing on were just ordinary stone walls.

He couldn't he help but feel a bit disappointed.

If only this were a rune wall along with a territorial defense formation.

Then his territory wound even feared demigods.

Chapter 278.

The appearance of the dwarfs.

Just as the two were conversing, the orc army finally entered the attack range of the shadow defense tower.

5 km.

It could be far or not far, but for gold level experts, 5 km was merely a matter of a few seconds.

Therefore, once the orc army entered the attack range of the shadow defense tower, Ywed did not hesitate at all and ordered the shadow defense tower to start attacking.

Instantly, black mist rose over the endless grasslands.

Those orcs entering the attack range of the shadow defense tower were instantly enveloped by streams of black energy.

Shadow energy possessed strong corrosive capabilities.

Therefore, once the shadow energy clung to the orcs, the excruciating pain made it difficult for the orc army to endure.

In an instant, the millions of troops that had been charging towards the city wall in a terrifying formation lost all their momentum.

They looked more like fleeing refugees.

Standing on the city wall, Yayua and the others saw this scene and smiled.

Although this tactic of the shadow realm didn't te directly eliminate those orcs, it certainly made them suffer enough.

Moreover, shadow energy was not merely corrosive.

It also had effects like curses and bleeding.

So when the orc army charged towards the city wall, both gold level and silver level orcs were already bleeding profusely.

Watching those orcs enduring the pain of being corroded and cursed by shadow energy while continuing to charge towards the city wall.

Melia raised a hand.

As Melia spoke the command, the thousands of gold and silver level dark elves on the city wall tightened their grips on their longbows.

Although they had no doubt that their territory could defeat this group of orc troops, the sheer number of millions still created a significant psychological impact.

Therefore, the dark elf girls on site were somewhat nervous.

Regarding the nervousness of the dark elf girls, Melia certainly sensed it.

However, the solution was simple.

They just needed to shoot arrows fiercely at those orc troops.

So, as soon as the orc army entered the attack range of the dark elves, Melia did not hesitate and wave her hand.

Instantly, arrows imbued with terrifying power shot from the city wall towards the charging orc army.

In an instant, the thousands of gold level orc experts at the front were pinned to the ground by the arrows flying through the air.

Originally being gold level, these dark elves attacks should have been something the orc army's experts could withstand.

However, unfortunately, the troops of the shadow realm were completely different from those of other territories.

The attributes of the shadow realm's troops were dozens of times stronger than those of other lords.

And now the gold level orc experts were severely affected in their movements by the dark energy from the shadow defense tower.

Thus, under the circumstances of mutual weakening, the strong orc troops were naturally no match for the dark elves.

Don't actually eliminate them.

Those are excellent materials for the philosopher stone.

Watching the orc army being treated like targets by the dark elves.

Yua reminded them.

The four-week dark elf girl had already relaxed her tense mood when she saw how weak those orc powerhouses were after hearing what Yiwa said.

Each of them wore a charming yet cold smile on their faces.

Of course, while the dark elf girl was shooting arrows from the city wall, Yiwa was also not idle.

Those orc powerhouses pierced by arrows did not really lose their combat ability just because they got hit in the knee.

It was just at the moment they fell due to the impact and damage of the arrows.

A dark claw simultaneously stretched out from the shadows beneath them.

In the instant they couldn't te react, they were pulled into the darkness.

The orc golden level powerhouses who were dragged away by the shadow clones were at that moment treated like livestock with their limbs broken and thrown onto the ground behind Yua.

As soon as one turned around, they could see a huge empty space behind the city wall.

Dozens of alchemist girls led by Kusfield were busy refining those returned orc golden level powerhouses into philosopher stones.

There was no way the actions of the dark elves and shadow clones were too fast.

This led to the alchemical glow in the empty space behind them never stopping for a moment.

Of course, the orcs weren't really brainless.

So after charging towards the shadow territory for over 10 minutes without reaching a moat, they realized that the shadow territory was a tough nut to crack.

Thus after losing over a 100,000 orc powerhouses with a loud horn sound, the army quickly retreated.

Tsk I thought they would continue if that were the case.

We would have it easy.

Watching the orc army start to retreat.

Yua couldn't te help but curl her lips.

Although with the cooperation of the shadow defense towers and shadow clones, the orc army couldn't t get within 2 km of the territory at all.

But those orcs were not NPCs in a game.

They wouldn't te just follow a pattern of action.

So once they realized the difficulty of the shadow territory, they would definitely find other ways to attack.

That would be the real beginning of Yu's confrontation with these orc armies.

My lord, let's take action.

As long as we kill the orc commanders, even if this army is numerous, they're just a group of mindless beasts.

Just as Yua was feeling a bit displeased watching the orc army that had already retreated out of the shadow defense towers range, suddenly a graceful figure sprang out from the shadows, directly kneeling half before you.

Respectfully speaking, the newcomer was none other than Oilia, who had already reached extraordinary level five.
