Chapter 473 The Catastrophe of the Scarlet Fortress
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The dense crossbow arrows and flying stones hit the "army" of cowardly demons rushing over.
These seemingly ferocious demons performed very poorly and were torn into pieces in just a few seconds.
Under the sunlight, most of the dead bodies of the coward demons became fragmented, leaving only a small part of the tissue that has not been decomposed.
These small gray pieces, similar to soul crystals, are the only trophies from killing these timid demons.
It's not difficult to kill them, but there are just too many of them.
After a group of them were killed, there was still a steady stream of timid demons crawling out of the cracks in the abyss.
The soldiers from the Gulf Territory breathed a sigh of relief when they saw this scene.
If the enemy can be killed, there is nothing to worry about.
At the same time, they also understand that this will be a fierce battle.
After all, they don't know how many enemies they will face.
The drastic changes in front of the Bloody Pass should have aroused the vigilance of the Bloody Fortress.
No matter what happens, resisting the abyssal demons and defending against the abyssal invasion will always be the most urgent matter.
However, the situation at the Blood Pass was ignored, and no team chose to leave the Blood Fortress and go for support.
The reason is somewhat bizarre.
The orc army, which had not launched a general offensive, suddenly all the orc warriors moved out together.
In the process of secretly transporting them over the past few months, they had unknowingly accumulated millions of orc warriors.
Now, they hit a wave!
Outside the towering city wall, densely packed orcs cling to it like ants.
All the orcs were like crazy, attacking the strongholds and defense lines stationed by the Third Army and the Eighth Army.
The two unprepared armies almost suffered heavy losses.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Carlos had a large number of battle golems from the Gulf Territory.
These guardians and warning golems that should have been cleaned up and eliminated used their golem bodies to firmly block the offensive of the orc army.
With the time these golems bought, the Third Army and the Eighth Army quickly mobilized their troops to withstand the orcs' desperate attack.
Looking at the "crazy" faces of these orcs, Carlos blocked their attack while asking about the situation in other places.
"What is going on? What happened to these orcs?"
"Who knows? Although there are many orcs, there don't seem to be any elite orcs or high-level orcs..."
"Are these orcs abandoned cannon fodder?"
"It is indeed possible, and it is not just as simple as being used as cannon fodder."
"There are traces of demons on the Bloody Pass, and these orcs suddenly start to go crazy. There must be some connection between them."
"Damn, everything happens together!"
"We must withstand it. These orcs have no elite strength and cannot make any waves, but they will definitely delay our time..."
"If it's other things, it's okay, but if there are traces of the devil, it's different. Send a message quickly and ask for support."
"It will be at least 5 hours before support arrives. Damn it!"
"In the future, we must build another city within 50 kilometers."
"..."
Just when the orcs' attack was blocked, the people defending the Scarlet Fortress just relaxed a little.
There are even many people who laugh at the orcs for not overestimating their abilities and just coming to die.
As for supporting Bloody Pass, everyone has become quite sensible and did not want to mention this aspect at all.
It’s important for everyone to save their lives.
The orcs just caught him by surprise, but everyone felt a little uneasy in their hearts.
It seems like something terrible hasn’t happened yet!
"Carlos, look!"
The commander of the Eighth Army who climbed up the guard tower was shouting at Carlos and pointing towards the outside of the city wall with a panicked expression.
After struggling to kill several orcs that rushed towards him, Carlos came to the city wall that he saw later and looked in the direction pointed by his companions.
At just the first glance, Carlos' heart beat wildly involuntarily.
In front of the orc camp in the distance, there were dozens of orc shamans with particularly high status, and Carlos recognized them at a glance.
"I'm going to suffer..."
I saw an invisible force slowly shrouding the Bloody Fortress.
It greedily devoured the souls of the orcs who had just died in battle, and continued to develop and strengthen itself.
That terrifying aura even exceeds the power of legendary spells!
The commanders of the Third and Eighth Legions are frantically sending messages to the Severdon Council and the Grand Arcanists.
However, everything seems to be too late!
Such a weird ritual gave Carlos a chilling feeling.
The other party paid hundreds of thousands of orcs just to create this horrific ritual.
Carlos couldn't help but recall the situation at Bloody Pass.
He soon realized that the siege of Bloody Pass might be just an attempt by them.
Their real purpose is actually for the Scarlet Fortress.
For these orcs, there is a reason why they have to take down the Scarlet Fortress.
Now, it's time for these orcs to fight to the death.
Taking a deep look at the twisted sacrifice, Carlos felt increasingly uneasy.
At this moment, an indescribable force burst out after absorbing enough souls of the orcs and legions.
Under the control of the orc shamans, it hit the city wall defended by the Third Legion like a cannonball.
Click! Click!
The power is invisible, but the destructive power is very terrifying.
One after another, long, narrow and unbelievable cracks appeared on the outer wall of the Scarlet Fortress.
The city wall, which was originally very strong, began to shake and shake in the blink of an eye.
Pieces of gravel fell from the cracks in the city wall.
The billowing smoke, accompanied by the shrill howls of the orc army, gradually made the legionnaires on the defensive end show an unspeakable panic.
The defenders can clearly feel the battles and changes in the city wall, and even see them directly.
After all, those falling rocks and shocking cracks are not deceiving.
More and more orc soldiers are frantically attacking the cracks one after another.
Gradually, orc soldiers began to appear, breaking through the defense lines of the defending soldiers, and started a more intense and intense strangulation battle.
As a last resort, the Third Army and the Eighth Army had to mobilize their reserves and retreated into the interior of the Scarlet Fortress.
As more orc souls are absorbed, the invisible power seems to be greatly enhanced.
It began to exert more power on other walls of the Scarlet Fortress.
It tried its best to destroy the last wall of the Bloody Fortress!
Many orcs and defensive soldiers who were too late to evacuate fell down together with gravel and boulders.
The Blood Fortress, which had stood for hundreds of years, suddenly collapsed at a time when no one expected it.
Such a dramatic hidden meaning gradually disappeared from those orc shamans who turned around and left with the catastrophe of the Scarlet Fortress.
What kind of ceremony did they hold? No one knows!
Who did they sacrifice to? No one knows!
After destroying the Scarlet Fortress, why did they leave?
No one knows this!
Bloody Pass.
The Gulf Territory soldiers lined up neatly and firmly guarded the city wall.
From time to time, they threw stones at the bottom of the city wall to kill the timid demons who tried to climb up.
As of now, the defense at Bloody Pass is impregnable.
"But how to solve the abyss rift?"
"If the cracks in the abyss expand further, more terrifying demons will definitely crawl out."
Just when Matthew felt a little headache, the violent fluctuations coming from the Blood Fortress made him feel inexplicable palpitations.
The sleepy Yaya suddenly opened his eyes and shouted:
"The breath of the gods!"
