Chapter 807 Fierce Offensive and Defensive Battles

There is no formation, no long-range weapon cover, not even a battering ram or a siege tower. The monsters that can't see the end just use the most primitive and brutal way to climb the city wall, which makes the defending army feel the huge pressure .

The enemy didn't seem to be afraid of death at all. The bottom of the city wall had already been piled up with corpses for several hours, but the opponents kept coming up. The crude wooden ladder was filled with dark red blood, and the sky-shattering shouts of killing filled everyone on the battlefield. corner.

"Ugly and ignorant wars, barbaric plundering of civilization, the strong survive and the weak perish, all these are the survival rules of the Northland. I have to say that it is surprisingly simple and rude. I really want to start to like this place a little bit." Allen muttered in a low voice, while quickly repeating the action of pulling the string and shooting arrows, constantly harvesting the life of the enemy.

For most of the tribal coalition forces that are not even equipped with leather armor, steel arrows are simply death to them, especially most of the crossbowmen on the city wall have melee professional level, so almost all arrows are shot in vain , more than a quarter of them can hit the vital points, and combined with wood, stones and boiling oil, very few can rush to the city wall. In the end, they are either stabbed to death by sharp spears, or squeezed down by soldiers holding shields Fell to death.

From the beginning of the siege to the present, the tribal coalition forces have not yet launched a truly threatening attack, and it is very strange to send people to die in batches in such a leisurely manner.

Just when Allen thought that the first day's tentative attack should be over, a large group of monsters covered in green skin and tumors suddenly appeared in the distance, even the poorest peasants could easily do it Call them by name - trolls.

"Damn it! Stop shooting arrows! Stop shooting arrows! Get ready to burn oil! These guys are not afraid of any physical damage at all! Only fire and strong acid can really kill them!" The orc officer in charge of commanding the east wall issued orders loudly, a dozen The tumbling grease in the iron pan was lifted up by the soldiers, and it would be poured down as soon as an order was given.

The archers on the arrow tower had already pulled out their rockets, and they were not aiming at the troll who was madly charging. It's a hot oil pan.

Experienced orc warriors know very well that although a rocket can inflict great damage on trolls, it is actually far from fatal. If you want to kill a large group of trolls, you must have enough Fuel, so you have to wait for the grease to pour on the troll.

The troll moved very fast, and could even catch up to galloping horses when they were hungry. After only a few minutes, these hideous-looking monsters rushed forward. While devouring the corpses of goblins and gnolls, they climbed up the ladder. The sight of their mouths dripping with blood made many militiamen vomit uncontrollably.

Allen frowned slightly and cursed in a low voice: "Damn! The behavior of these guys is really disgusting!"

Although he has seen many scenes of blood and flesh flying with his own eyes, he still can't stand creatures like trolls. This has nothing to do with the concept of good and evil, but the way the other party eats is really disgusting.

"Hey! Human boy, it's really hard for you not to spit it out. I'm starting to admire you a little bit now. You must know that many people will be frightened when they see a troll eating for the first time, and then stand still and be killed and eaten .” A long-toothed orc veteran said with a laugh.

"Scared?" Allen glanced at the troll who was climbing the ladder with disdain. "They alone are not enough. I have seen scenes hundreds of times more horrific than this, and I have personally experienced the harsh environment where death may occur at any time. Now there is nothing that can shock me."

"Haha! What a braggart. Can you tell me what's a hundred times more terrifying than a troll? A dragon?" said the orc veteran, pushing the boy back. "Stay back obediently. Now is not the time to be a hero. If you accidentally die, your mother will be sad."

Allen didn't try to explain anything, stood silently in the back row, and began to prepare spells.

After more than two months of study, his mage level has been improved again. He is an out-and-out fifth-level mage, and he has mastered several third-level spells. In the midstream position. Coupled with the extra spell slots from the "Ring of Sharpness" and the "Book of Unlimited Spells", the combat power is enough to support an army of fifty people.

Of course, this doesn't include the psion's ability, because Henry doesn't allow him to use it in public. After all, human beings are not born with psychic powers, so once it is spread, it will be very troublesome.

The city wall of Weywood is not high, and the troll with nimble hands and feet climbed up in just a dozen seconds, and the soldiers standing at the front did not hesitate. Immediately thrust out the spear in his hand, firmly resisted the opponent, and then shouted: "Quick! Pour oil!"

"Go! Burn these disgusting monsters to death!" The orc officer ordered without hesitation.

"Wow! Wow! Wow..."

"Ahhh!!!!!!"

As pots of hot fat fell from the sky, the trolls let out miserable screams, and some of them were even too slippery. Accidentally descending from the nearly ten-meter-high ladder, the smell of fried trolls wafted into his nostrils.

Perhaps for ordinary creatures, this can already be regarded as a serious injury. But it was obviously not enough to kill the tenacious trolls. In just a dozen seconds, the burns on their bodies began to recover slowly, just like Xiaoqiang who could not be killed.

The orc officer roared at the arrow tower with a grinning grin: "Fire the rockets! Burn these bastards to death!"

The archers shot the grease-soaked cloth strips on the arrows towards the troll below the city wall, and saw a large orange-red light draw a straight line in the sky, hitting the target precisely.

"boom!"

When the hot grease met the open flame, it produced a terrifying effect in an instant. Pillars of fire shot up into the sky, not only igniting a large number of trolls, but also burning the ladders along with it. Endure, not to mention those unlucky guys below.

More than two hundred trolls didn't even go up the city wall, so they were reduced to ashes under the flames. In the end, except for black and burnt lumps, not even a complete corpse remained.

Just when everyone was about to celebrate their victory, the ground suddenly began to shake slightly. Immediately afterwards, in the distance, several huge monsters with five heads rushed towards this side. Their whole bodies are covered with scales that shimmer with cold light, and each head is covered with sharp teeth, which can swallow adults alive with just one bite.

"Damn! This is a swamp hydra! Ballista! Let the ballista shoot at them! Otherwise, we will die!" Allen could no longer maintain his composure at this moment, and yelled frantically at the orc officer.

In the high wilderness, a land full of oceanic swamps, besides giant dragons, it can be said that this kind of huge aquatic lizard is the most dangerous. Sometimes just one can destroy two or three people who accidentally trespass into their territory. In the tribe, five heads mean that although these hydra have not been able to compete with the power of the dragon. But it is a full adult, and there is absolutely no problem with crushing humans.

"Crossbow... ballista! Shoot... shoot!"

The frightened orc commander issued an order with a trembling voice, and the twenty defensive crossbows arranged on the east wall immediately fired a round of salvo. However, due to the nervousness of the operators, the angles were not adjusted properly, most of them disappeared, and the hit rate was probably less than half.

Seeing this result, Allen shook his head helplessly, and began to chant spells in a low voice. After a few seconds, five tiny fireballs floating on his palm appeared. The moment the hydra rushed to the city wall, he aimed directly at one of the heads with its bloody mouth open and threw it out in one breath.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The small fireball exploded violently after impact, and immediately blew up the head to pieces. Since the explosion was inside the mouth, the damage was extremely serious, directly causing one head to completely lose its combat effectiveness.

Level 3 magic - Ma Youfu Micro Meteor. One of the spells most favored by low-level mages, it can create a small fireball per casting level.

Allen used it to calmly resolve the crisis without moving a single step. The mage's robe fluttered gently with the breeze. They couldn't believe that the little boy who used the crossbow well was so powerful.

If I were an ordinary child, I am afraid that I would be too happy to find North now. However, Allen knew very well that he had only severely injured one of the hydra's heads, and it would take a few minutes for the other party to fully recover, and then came the real hard battle.

"Roar! Roar! Roar..."

The monitor lizard that lost one head roared angrily with the other four heads, and then rushed forward, taking away four soldiers holding shields in one fell swoop. They didn't even have a chance to resist, and were torn to pieces by sharp teeth in the blink of an eye.

Just like a proverb in Faerun said, when terrible monsters fall from the sky. No matter how brave and skilled the army is, what you need at this time are heroes, only they can save all living beings.

Faced with an enemy who could not fight, the defenders inevitably panicked and began to retreat in panic. Even fleeing, the eastern city wall fell just a few minutes after the Swamp Hydra attacked. The orcs following behind cheered and climbed quickly carrying the ladder, trying to capture the city in one go.

"Damn it! Are we going to start calling on the power of the mage tower now?"

Allen nimbly avoided the chasing of the hydra while swearing in a low voice through gritted teeth. He knew very well that the mage tower in the city had very little energy reserves, at most it was only enough to launch a large-scale support, so before the enemy showed its cards, it must not be used lightly.

But now it seems that if you don't use it again, you won't have a chance to use it. Once the city wall falls to Weywood City, you will go to the most important barrier, and you will not be able to resist enemies that are several times or even dozens of times your own number.

"I hope I won't regret this choice..." Alan took out a sealed scroll from his arms and said with a wry smile.

Seeing that the number of enemies on the city wall is increasing, and several hydras are rampant, he can only show his last card ahead of time... (to be continued~^~)
