Chapter 334: Attacking Undead (1)
Outside the Emerald Fortress.
The densely forested Rurko Mountains.
This place is usually full of birds and flowers. The closer you get to the World Tree, the more plant species there are and the stronger they grow.
But today there is silence here.
The originally bright and sunny weather suddenly turned dark.
"Quagua——ah——"
Blood crows circled in the sky and let out ear-piercing screams. Their scarlet feathers fell to the ground, instantly corroding a small patch of grass into a lifeless yellow color.
They formed blood-colored dark clouds and intertwined into an airtight net, trapping the original blue of the sky.
Behind them, the cloud of death covered the sky and gradually spread across the entire sky.
"Winter King, even if you hide in the Emerald Fortress, you can't resist the attack of the Undead Scourge!"
In the cloud of death, Engus roared angrily as he looked in the direction of the Emerald Fortress, and the undead under his command also let out shrill howls.
Their momentum is like a rainbow, and they are bound to capture the Emerald Fortress.
Too much time has been wasted.
In order to speed up the capture of the Emerald Fortress.
Engus also sent a group of blood crows back to the Grand Canyon to inform the other ghost dragons remaining there.
If the ghost dragons under his command fly at full speed, they can reach the Emerald Fortress in at most one day. By then, the Emerald Fortress will only be reduced to ruins under the attack of a group of ghost dragons!
The Scourge of the Undead moves very slowly.
It took him nearly a week to arrive near the Emerald Fortress.
All the creatures encountered along the way were transformed into undead creatures under the influence of the cloud of death.
Now the total number of undead natural disasters has reached 40,000, and in front of the Emerald Fortress, he can awaken more skeletal soldiers from the gravel beach sprinkled with ancient blood.
Looking far into the distance, the Emerald Fortress is just below the mountain, about three or four kilometers away from where the cloud of death is.
Looking down from the cliff is a green forest sea, which is a unique tropical jungle near the Emerald Border. The Emerald Fortress is located in the forest sea and looks like a connected city.
It was daytime, not suitable for launching an attack, and the Emerald Fortress was under the influence of the Moonlight Holy Well. Engus had already vaguely felt that his strength was being suppressed, but this feeling was not obvious.
All the energy of the undead comes from soul power, not magic or fighting spirit. The Moonlight Holy Well has a very limited impact on the undead, but Engus decided to attack the Moonlight Holy Well as soon as possible.
…
Rurko Jungle.
The idlers and other players who were building fortifications by the Holy Well of Moonlight looked at the cloud of death on the horizon with solemn expressions.
"The undead are here after all." He sighed.
"Yeah, it's a little faster than I expected."
He laid the last brick on the wall in a leisurely moment, and then used sticky mud to glue it to the temporary city wall.
Without cement, they could only temporarily use this kind of material instead.
Since the Moonlight Holy Well is built inside the Emerald Fortress, facing the direction of Kalanli City, there are no heavy defense measures like those facing the Emerald Forest.
The human general who occupied the Emerald Fortress was very thief. In order to strengthen the defense of the fortress against the northern elves, he directly ordered the soldiers to tear down the southern wall of the Emerald Fortress and pile all the materials on the northern wall.
This will lead to thousands of years later.
Players had to build a new southern wall to protect the Moonlight Well.
"Fortunately, the undead won't attack during the day. We still have time to improve our defense measures... How is the construction of the bunker going?" He turned around and asked a player behind him.
"Don't worry, Brother Personnel, the bunker will definitely be put into use before dusk. Then the undead will know how powerful our players are!"
"Very good." He nodded indifferently.
Then he told the player:
"Be careful to check whether there are corpses in the soil near the bunker, and move all the corpses out and burn them to ashes, lest the skeletal warriors who become undead come to interfere with us..."
"Okay, no problem. I will take someone to check it carefully later. There will be absolutely no bones left for the undead." The player laughed and accepted the order and left without any fear of facing the undead.
"Are you sure you can stop the undead?"
Take a moment to ask leisurely.
He always felt that if he didn't do anything, he would always be calm, which made him feel like he had a chance of winning if he didn't do anything.
"No." Bu Shi shook his head.
"Are you kidding? It's already pretty good if you can block the undead for a few hours... Do you really treat that legendary ghost dragon as a decoration?"
He looked in the direction of the cloud of death, and gradually tightened his grip on the spear:
"Our ultimate goal is not to kill the undead, but to delay the return of the Winter King as much as possible. Be prepared, this will be a hard battle."
…
…
As night falls, the stars in the west gradually appear.
The last rays of dusk were swallowed up by the cold horizon.
Darkness enveloped the entire jungle.
The cloud of death that filled the sky finally began to move in the direction of the Emerald Fortress.
The necromantic energy is like the minions of the devil in the night, caressing the cold land like smoke and mist. Wherever it passes, the creatures decay and the dead wake up.
Countless white bones broke out of the ground, and their hollow jaws opened and let out a silent roar.
The players in the underground fortress are already in place. They have cleared every inch of land within two hundred meters of the city wall in the south of the Emerald Fortress, making sure that no remains can wake up from this land.
At the same time, they also built a bunker three meters underground.
Using the Star Mage's reconnaissance eye, you can see everything happening on the surface without doing anything else.
"Get ready!" He gave the order in the team channel, silently. The dead cannot know the secrets under the soil.
When the players heard the instructions, the mage began to guide the Dragon Breath Technique. The warrior player would cover it in advance and open the hole connected to the ground. The mage player followed closely, and the Dragon Breath Technique was released along the hole the size of an adult's fist.
.
In the night, an orange spark suddenly appeared on this gravel beach where the deceased walked silently, and then more and more sparks appeared, like a large number of stars suddenly appeared in the starless polar night.
The sparks ignited the kerosene that had been poured on the gravel beach in advance, and the entire gravel beach burst into flames.
The undead howled in the flames, and they fell less than fifty meters away from the southern city wall.
The fire continued to burn for more than half an hour before gradually extinguishing.
The battlefield was filled with gray and black smoke, and in the bunker, sweaty players could smell the stench of burning protein.
"The first wave of attacks was blocked?"
"It's not over yet! The undead are coming again!"
In the light mirror where the reconnaissance magic appeared, the undead continued to step onto the scorching hot land. Although the gravel beach was still burning with an inch-high flame, it was no longer enough to stop the undead.
Countless souls were burned to death
