Soul of Burning Steel

Chapter 68 Reinforcements 2

Wild beasts have no intelligence, they only use brute force to climb walls and breathe without any technical content, but even so, they are scary enough. If the city wall under Verdani's feet hadn't been given the legendary blessing of toughening, it would have been shattered by the tsunami-like breath of magic power long ago.

Looking sideways not far away, the city guards who are busy adjusting various defensive equipment and the soldiers who are rapidly deploying defenses, the purple-haired mage knows that all available soldiers in Moldova are here, even those who can fight The civilians also used all of them, but even so, compared to the still increasing army of wild beasts, it was like a drop in the bucket.

The letter of assistance has been sent out for three days...no reply, no assistance.

She slammed the staff in her hand towards the ground fiercely. Verdani didn't know whether it was anxiety or pain in her heart. She said every word, gnashing her teeth: The group of people, why don't you understand! If the Moldova fortress is destroyed Break through, and the entire Northland will not be able to escape! There is no fortress transformed from mountains as a barrier, this group of wild beasts can wantonly attack any manor or village!

After venting for a while, the mage knew it was useless, so she regained her composure. Shaking her head, the countess looked at the approaching beast horde, frowning in thought.

clatter.

There were footsteps behind the purple-haired mage.

Turning her head, Verdani saw a swordsman with blond hair and red eyes.

You came.

Facing this swordsman in plain brown leather armor with two long swords on his waist, the mage sighed lightly, and then stopped talking. The swordsman walked up to the mage and hugged him silently. She then said calmly and straightforwardly: I came from the imperial capital, Danni... come with me.

He let go of his hands and looked directly into the eyes of the purple-haired mage. Before he could reply, he continued: This time the beast tide has exceeded the normal scale. I can see that there is a chaotic atmosphere behind this. This is no longer a Earl, if a territory can handle the situation, I will report to His Majesty the Emperor and ask him to dispatch the five armies to help you wipe out the beast horde... But before that, you must not stay in this dangerous situation.

When he spoke, the blond-haired, red-eyed swordsman's eyes were as firm as a rock, and his unshakable will could be seen.

Brandon Chaos...

Shaking her head, the countess refused with a wry smile: Let's not say that the five major legions have already been overwhelmed to suppress the rioting beast tide in the central area of ​​the empire... You mean that I want to give up my territory and people, and just live on my own? Impossible, I understand your kindness, but I can't promise you.

It's impossible for you to defend against 200,000 berserk monsters with a chaotic aura.

The swordsman named Brandon didn't answer directly, he just simply pointed out a question: As a gold mage, your sacrifice here is of no value.

Speaking of this, his tone changed, even with a hint of pleading: Danny, if it was the past, I would definitely accompany you to defend this fortress, as long as I am with you, even if I die ...But now you are the mother of our children, even if you don't think about yourself, you must think about your daughters, they can't lose their mother.

The purple-haired mage fell silent. Two young girls appeared in her mind. The older one inherited her mother's violet-like hair color, while the younger one had the same golden hair as her father.

The Countess' eyes softened a little, but she still refused: Brandon, I admit that I am not a qualified mother...You can take my daughter away, and I will live and die with my territory , this is my fate.

Do you mean that I, who is also a gold rank, should watch my woman die in the mouth of a monster, and then flee despicably by myself?

And it's not your fate at all!

The purple-haired mage shook his head quietly, but did not answer the question.

Not knowing how to persuade the woman in front of him, the blond swordsman was extremely agitated, but he couldn't say what he said he knew.

As a direct descendant of Kabala Chaos, the legendary mage who sealed the narrow passage of time and space hundreds of years ago, Brandon Chaos naturally knows the truth behind this land. Of the four major families in the Northland, three of them are descendants of heroes who explored other worlds and sealed the time and space passages. But now, except for the Radcliffe family who recently broke out in civil strife and the new earl has just succeeded to the throne, the other families are all Give up this persistence and choose to become an ordinary nobleman.

And this time the beast tide is mixed with a few wild gods, which obviously show the traces of Chaos believers and even the evil gods themselves. It should be him and the new Chaos Watcher of the Radcliffe family who are facing them, not the people in front of them. This female mage who doesn't like oil and salt!

Faced with the insistence of his loved one, the golden swordsman really didn't know what to do. He could only stand by her side and watch the beast horde approaching from a distance.

(If it’s really not possible, at the most dangerous time, knock her out and take her away by force!)

While Brandon was thinking about this in his heart, the array of wild beasts had jumped over the nearest hill and was about to reach the city wall. They are extremely tired from the war, but they have also mastered a wealth of experience. All kinds of alchemy cannons and enchanted ballistas are fully prepared, and the war mages and elemental archers are also ready.

The patrol team composed of silver warriors was always on guard. If any monsters rushed up the city wall, they would shoot them down. As long as the city wall didn't collapse, no matter how many monsters there were, they only needed to deal with one or two thousand at the same time.

It is impossible for 200,000 monsters to charge at the same time. They are divided into dozens of waves, and different types of monsters charge back and forth like this. If there is only this amount at one time, this group of fighters has sufficient confidence.

The herd was getting closer.

three kilometers.

two kilometers.

one thousand meters.

Coming soon.

Enemy, 500 meters ahead, prepare for battle!

The prepared horn sounded at the highest point of the tower. The sound was torn apart by the north wind, but it could still reach everyone's ears. Everyone was in good spirits at this time, and the mages teamed up to connect the magic power , spell runes with complex structures, while the archers drew their bows full, and the city guards who controlled the artillery and ballistas were also ready to launch.

attack!

Following the order, the glow of spells illuminated the night sky in an instant, and countless various war spells were jointly cast. The huge thunder hit the wild beasts across a distance of hundreds of meters, and the silver-blue electric current Four times, at least more than a hundred monsters of various types were killed on the spot or lost their ability to move, and the ensuing flames and ice easily ignited and penetrated them all, killing them completely.

Moldova has always had the most mages among the four lords, and even the lord is a gold-level mage. After the first wave of spells, there was an overwhelming rain of arrows, and they came down with a violent buzzing sound. Countless weak wild beasts were pierced and nailed to death in place, and some powerful monsters were also wounded by arrows with barbs and blood grooves, and purple-black turbid blood flowed out, gradually losing their physical strength.

Every time the alchemy cannon and the enchanted ballista are fired, a huge hole will be created in the dense beast herd. The violent explosion will raise dust and mist, mixed with the purple and black mist from the wild beasts, rising into the air, and then slowly dissipating. But this is just the first wave of beasts. After that, there is still a huge army spreading to the horizon roaring forward. The hole caused by the previous bombardment was quickly filled, as if it had never appeared before.

And the monsters also responded with all kinds of breaths. Although they couldn't use more powerful talent spells due to madness, the simplest breath not only didn't weaken, but also strengthened because of the increase in magic power.

A burst of breath like cannonballs hit the city wall, and the gravel collapsed, creating countless large holes. Some unlucky soldiers on the city wall were hit. They were either frozen, burned, or electrocuted. His body was scorched black, and he died immediately on the spot.

Under the protection of the tower, the mages did not receive too many attacks. With the help of the magic circle, their magic power quickly recovered, and they continuously released spells one after another, and the archers also did not have any interruption. They delayed The monsters are moving forward, but the front of the beast tide is still advancing step by step, touching the bottom of the city wall, and countless giant bats and flying dragons flying in the air have also come to the sky above the fortress.

The dizzying ultrasonic waves and the breath of ice descended from the sky, disrupting the bombardment rhythm of the alchemy cannons on the city wall, and the speed of the beast horde went even further. There were already countless sunken walls covered with monster bodies, and they quickly moved towards the city wall. Crawling above.

Trouble bug.

Seeing this scene, the countess, who had been silent all this time, snorted coldly. She raised her gray iron-wood staff and pointed it at the sky.

The light between the fortresses seemed to brighten all of a sudden, and the haze was swept away. Under the will of the golden mage Verdani, the long red lines formed complex patterns like gears in the atmosphere. Layer upon layer, a magnificent and beautiful huge six-pointed star array is formed.

Gold rank magic [Star of David].

And in the next instant, countless red-golden beams shot out from the magic circle, hitting the giant bats and flying dragons in midair at the speed of light. Every time these beams hit the target, they would bring a huge explosion, and I would also Change direction and hit another monster.

Immediately, countless charred and foul-smelling corpses fell like rain. It seemed that they were afraid of this terrifying power. The herd of flying monsters immediately moved away, and they no longer dared to get too close to the top of the fortress. Instead, they used their breath and talents from a distance Capability harassment.

The battle situation has reached a stalemate, but the advantage is not on the human side. In order to guard against the gold-level monsters that may sneak attack and the flying species that have been hovering in the air, the two gold powerhouses Verdani and Brandon can only take occasional shots to repel the crawling monsters. The monsters on the city wall, although the mages, archers and various alchemy equipment in the tower are still causing a lot of damage, but for the really endless beast horde, this is just better than nothing.

As time goes by, the pile of corpses at the bottom of the city wall is getting higher and higher, and the spirit of some low-level mages can no longer be sustained. Archers generally use more than ten quiver, and most of the alchemy artillery The firing has stopped, and the gunners have begun to draw out their long swords, following the patrol team to sweep away the monsters that have climbed up the edge of the city wall.

During the many days of fighting, more than half of the supplies of the Moldovan fortress have been consumed, and now it is the last stock.

No! Can't go on like this.

Brandon swung his two swords, and swept across the city wall with his dark blue grudge, beheading a row of climbing wild beasts. He frowned, and said to Verdani who had just released two gold-level spells to drive back the tide of flying beasts : In the past, you were able to defend because of sufficient supplies, but now it is no longer possible. These wild beasts seem to be determined to break through the fortress this time. They have piled up a slope with corpses. Without a large number of siege equipment Come on, you can't keep it!

If you can't keep it, you will die!

Due to continuous casting of great magic, she was a little mentally exhausted, the countess's face was extremely pale, and her voice was also extremely indifferent, she seemed to be simply struggling: I can't just abandon these soldiers who fought with me and run away like this!

You can take revenge in the future only if you don't die. Persistence now is meaningless!

Just when Brandon was about to give up persuasion and prepare to attack the purple-haired mage unconscious, he suddenly found a red light shining at the end of his vision.

The dark and gloomy cloud curtain was torn apart by an extremely condensed dou qi brilliance, and the stars of the northern night and the magnificent purple-blue sky appeared directly in front of everyone, and when the silver-white moonlight fell, a package The lance that glowed black and red flew over a distance of several thousand meters and landed in the center of the beast horde.

call!

There was no massive explosion or dusty explosion. The black and red power erupted for a moment and then dissipated silently, but no one dared to ignore this blow, because right where it fell, only There was a dead silence, and all the wild beasts that came into contact with the black and red light died silently, and after being frozen for thousands of years, the incomparably solid ice and snow permafrost collapsed directly, as if it had been directly melted and evaporated, and only the steel lance stood majestically. Center of the pothole.

The golden swordsman looked at the place where the light was shining in shock.

As the snow and fog filled the air and the dust was flying, one after another figures climbed over the distant hills and appeared before the eyes of everyone on the city wall.

That's, that's the flag of the Radcliffe family!

The elf archer who was blessed with Eagle Eye and carried a telescope could clearly see the side of the mountain in the far distance. He couldn't help but exclaimed, It's the reinforcements!

What?!

Book review area - The 25-meter-thick city wall is because the entire fortress is made by hollowing out the mountains. As long as the excavation is a little less, let alone 25 meters, 100 meters is possible.

Yes, that is a fortress made by hollowing out a stone pier, and it was not built-in fact, in the fantasy world, it is not difficult to build, and it is very necessary. The wall is five or six meters thick, and hundreds of monsters breathe together It just collapsed, this is a world full of magic power and fighting spirit...
