The Principality of Purs is on the edge of the territory of Warcraft, blocked by continuous mountains, which effectively prevents Warcraft from flooding into the Principality of Purs from all directions. If Warcraft wants to invade the Principality, it must break through the edge towns and pass through the edge towns to enter the Principality.
The edge town is built in the continuous mountains, sandwiched in the gap between two mountains, and built against the mountains. The most important part of the edge town, which is the city wall facing the direction of the Warcraft Territory, is built on
The narrowest place between two mountains. After thousands of years of continuous repairs, the mountains on both sides of the city gate have been completely cut into high cliffs, eliminating the possibility of monsters climbing the mountains to attack the small town on the edge.
Therefore, if Warcraft wants to break through the edge town, then only by storming the wall of the edge town can it be possible to break through the edge town. As for the task of the edge town defenders, they only need to desperately defend this wall to achieve the final victory.
.
Ruian has been to the edge town before, so he knows how tall the city wall facing the Territory of Warcraft is. The length of the city wall reaches four to five hundred meters, connecting the two mountains, seemingly without any gaps. The city wall is more than ten meters high, so there is no
There are some monsters that are good at jumping that can jump onto the city wall.
The thickness of the city wall is even more terrifying, reaching more than ten meters thick. There is enough space on the city wall for the garrison of the edge town to arrange various defensive measures. In addition, the city wall is not simply made of rocks;
It is mixed with a large amount of molten iron material and is extremely strong. This makes it impossible for the monsters attacking the city to knock down the city wall at once.
Ruian and others followed Dean Riton to the city wall to help defend the city. When Ruian approached the city wall, he was really surprised by the spectacular defensive equipment.
Since this is an emergency period, a large wooden shelf is erected every twenty meters near the entire city wall, supporting a large iron pot on which a blazing bonfire is lit. Countless bonfires illuminate the area near the city wall as if it were daytime.
.
Before reaching the city wall, starting from a distance of more than 200 meters, Ruian saw densely packed catapults fixed in the open space. Each catapult bracket was about ten meters long and wide. On the long throwing handle, fixed
There is a large iron-shaped pot, which looks like it can throw large stones at least one or two meters wide. Next to each catapult, there is a pile of stones of different sizes, obviously ready to resist the invasion of monsters.
.
Ruian glanced over. The catapults inside the city wall were very spectacular. They were neatly arranged in a row every few meters, and then dozens of rows were staggered. The catapults in the front row were smaller and could be thrown closer.
The distance. The catapults in the back row are getting bigger and bigger. They have strong slinging power and can definitely throw stones hundreds of meters away. Ruian estimates that there are at least six or seven hundred catapults in the open space within the city wall.
The Warcraft has not yet attacked the city, so there are not many people around the catapult. I think the soldiers are taking the time to rest. Once the Warcraft attacks the city, a lot of people will be gathered quickly. A catapult requires at least four or five people. As you can imagine
, when all the catapults are launched together, countless huge stones will be thrown over the high city wall and hit the monsters outside, then the lethality must be very powerful.
Obviously, the sling is a great weapon against monsters!
Dean Ritton led everyone along the middle aisle and passed through many catapults. The momentum of their group was obviously much higher than that of the garrison in the edge town. At a glance, people knew that they were a team of experts coming to support.
.So all the soldiers who looked over were refreshed.
The commander-in-chief of the garrison, General Kiev, had been waiting at the city wall for a long time. When he saw Dean Riton and others arriving, he hurriedly came forward to greet him, and then started discussing with Dean Riton in a low voice. It seemed that Dean Riton was telling
The arrangement on the other side's side.
Soon, Dean Ritton finished speaking. At this moment, an old man who looked like a magician came down from the stone steps on the side of the city wall. Dean Ritton couldn't help but laugh when he saw him, and then he went up to him.
"Mo Lai, you came so fast!" Dean Ruiden looked very familiar, but he immediately punched the opponent's shoulder. With his fist, even without any fighting spirit, it is estimated that only a strong and tall swordsman can resist it.
Come on, a thin old magician on the other side might not be able to stand it.
"Hmph! Ridon, don't do anything when we meet. You don't care about your identity, but I also care about my identity." The old magician didn't dodge, but a half-foot-wide fire shield appeared out of thin air on his shoulder.
Blocked Dean Leighton's fist.
A layman wouldn't see much of this fire shield, and might even think it was nothing more than that. But Ryan was different. His heart was greatly shaken. You know, magicians usually use shield magic over a large area.
, large-area shield magic is not difficult to cast, as long as you increase the magic power output. However, small-area shields are difficult. It cannot be done by reducing magic power output. It requires very powerful magic power.
Control is what matters. Furthermore, the old magician did not show any signs of casting magic while he was speaking, and he cast it out of thin air. This shows that the old magician has reached the point where he can silently cast instant magic. Ryan himself wants to cast such a small shield.
He could barely do magic, but it was impossible to cast it silently and instantly. He had to recite the magic spell no matter what, and although the time was extremely short, he would never be able to cast magic so easily and instantly.
"Haha! Let's not talk about this anymore. How many people are here this time?" Dean Ritton seemed to realize that the occasion was not right, and then changed the subject.
"I brought most of the intermediate-level and above magicians in Skayas City, about a hundred or so, plus the magicians from the Magic Association of Puls City, and the original magicians here, a total of one hundred and fifty
About ten people.”
"So few?" Dean Ritton said in surprise.
"Humph! Isn't that enough? I think there are more people than you brought." The old magician raised his eyebrows and countered.
"This is different. These are all masters who are level 6 swordsmen or above. They are much better than your hairless students." Dean Ruiden showed no sign of weakness.
However, the old magician did not fight back. Instead, he sighed and said after a moment: "Magicians nowadays cherish their lives too much. If it weren't for those student magicians, not many of them would come this time."
Suddenly, Dean Riton also sighed and stopped targeting the old magician. Then, he changed the topic and turned to a group of level 6 swordsmen and level 7 swordsmen who were standing behind and watching the two of them speak.
The teachers said: "Let me introduce to you, this person is the dean of the Alexandria Academy of Magic, Master Merai, and he is also one of the only seventh-level magicians in the Principality of Purs."
Many people in the crowd did not know the seventh-level magician Master Mo Lai, but everyone had heard of Master Mo Lai's name, including Ryan. After Dean Ruiton finished the introduction, everyone quickly said hello with the swordsman's salute, but there were too many people.
Many, the swordsman's ceremony was very irregular, and it felt a bit chaotic.
Ryan had heard from Dean Ritton before that there were no level 8 magicians in the Principality of Purs, but only a few level 7 magicians. However, except for Master Mo Lai, the other level 7 magicians were all indifferent to worldly affairs.
He hides in his magic tower all year round and rarely sees outsiders. As for Master Mo Lai, he is worried about
Became the dean of the Alexandria Academy of Magic, which is the number one academy in Skayas City and the number one academy in the Principality of Purs. Therefore, compared to several other level 7 magicians, Master Melai
To be more famous, most people in the Principality of Purs have heard of Master Mellay.
Since Master Mellay served as the dean of the Alexandria Academy of Magic, when Grand Duke Purs asked him for help in the border town, he naturally could not refuse. Not only did he agree to support, but he also organized many student magicians to come together.
Compared with other level 7 magicians, Master Mo Lai seems to be very responsible.
Although Dean Ruiden is an 8th-level swordsman, he chose to be the dean of Parr Comprehensive College, a second-rate college, because he wanted to revitalize his alma mater. Unfortunately, his management level is really limited. Over the years, Parr Comprehensive College has still been the dean.
It lags behind the Alexandria Academy of Magic. Therefore, every time Dean Riton sees Master Mellay, he will have a tit-for-tat confrontation.
"No need to be too polite. These are extraordinary times. Please be more casual." Facing the noisy salutes of more than a hundred people, Master Mo Lai did not return the salute. He just waved his hands and said with a smile. Then, Master Mo Lai looked at himself and stood in front.
The seventh-level swordsmen were all people he knew, but when his eyes fell on Ruian, he stopped.
"Ridon, isn't this your student?"
"Yes! This is my student, Ryan." Dean Ruiden spoke in a very proud tone, and immediately called Ruian over, "Rian, come and say hello to Master Mo Lai."
Ruian quickly stepped forward, performed the swordsman salute again, and said respectfully: "Ruian has met the master."
"No need to be polite." Master Mo Lai waved his hand again and said.
At this time, Dean Riton on the side suddenly said: "Mo Lai, what do you think of my student?" Looking at Dean Riton's appearance, he seemed to want to show off. He has now reached the city wall, but the Warcraft has not appeared yet.
Therefore, he was not in a hurry and was in the mood to talk about other topics.
"I don't think it's very good, he looks very ordinary!" Master Mo Lai looked at Ryan up and down, and then said to Dean Riton, but he said this not to belittle Ryan, but more like joking with Dean Riton.
Ruian didn't care at all. He didn't know how many times he had been looked down upon because of his ordinary appearance.
Ryan didn't mind, but Dean Riton did mind it very much. However, he, who often quarreled with Master Mo Lai, did not get angry. Instead, he counterattacked from another angle: "Ryan performed very well. He will be promoted in a few days."
By then, he will be a level 7 mage, the same level as you."
Master Mo Lai was immediately stunned with surprise.
