Under the moonlight, the music gradually became inaudible.
Shia slowly opened her purple eyes and took a deep breath: "Isabella, the music is very nice."
Isabella gently put down the Quqin from the veil: "The name of the song is "End of the World". When a man taught it to me, he once said that even if the end of the world comes, he will stay with me. around."
"Really?" The blonde princess smiled coldly, and the coldness in her eyes that had just been dispelled by the music began to solidify quickly again, "Then you should also know that every time he said the same thing to you before he said sweet words to you, he said the same thing in my arms. .”
The implication of this sentence is that what you eat is just leftover soup. Isabella's pretty eyebrows couldn't help but raise. It seems that the eldest princess is not stupid. On the contrary, It's much clearer than imagined.
The intelligence leader turned her green eyes and sighed: "How can I compete with the noble Princess? No matter she wins or loses, she is the winner. At least she can get the position of Queen."
"There are only princesses who die in battle, and there are no queens who survive." Shia's purple eyes flashed with a hint of determination, but she counterattacked her love rival without giving in: "Speaking of life and death... the resurrection of the Mandala Flower has a profound impact on the imperial capital. For those crazy bees and butterflies, this is really good news."
You and I were going back and forth, and in the conversation between each other, both women seemed to be high-spirited, and there seemed to be an invisible electric spark "sizzling" between the purple eyes and the blue eyes.
"It's already so late. If you don't go to bed, you'll have dark circles under your eyes. How can you seduce that man?" Isabella yawned and bowed slightly: "Then I'll take my leave first, my energetic princess. Your Highness."
After that, he ignored Shia and turned around to leave.
"Isabella."
The steps wrapped in a cloak paused.
"The music is very nice."
However, Her Royal Highness the Princess added forcefully: "I will let that guy play it for me dozens of times a day."
Behind the veil, the corners of her purple lips curled up in a slight arc, and without looking back, she walked forward with lotus steps.
The music in front of the military tent ended. The movement in the imperial capital was coming to an end, and in the west of the dark moon, another nocturne was quietly beginning.
For a vast territory, it is not uncommon for "the sky to be different for ten miles". There was no moonlight over the Xilang Mountains at this time, but dense dark clouds.
There were faint flashes of lightning in the dense clouds, occasionally cutting through the darkness of the night, and wisps of rain fell in the cold sweaty wind.
Under the leadership of Geraint, an army of five thousand people entered the territory of the Dark Moon under the cover of darkness and raindrops.
This army is the elite force brought by Geraint from the Saber-toothed Tiger Legion of Tecula Fortress. In addition to its outstanding combat effectiveness, more importantly, it obeys the orders and prohibitions and completely obeys the command of Geraint. The son of the second general Doron Russ Sergey is among them.
Sergey originally held an important position in the Red Demon Legion. He reached the level of a high-level demon at a young age. Because of Athena's relationship, he "wrongly" killed the jealous son of the finance minister, Alan, and was dismissed from his post and sent to Teku. La Fortress and became a personal guard under Geraint. After Sergei came to Tekula Fortress, he started from scratch. After practicing hard, he has reached the middle level of a high-level demon. This time he accompanied the team on the dark expedition. Yue also came here with the determination to make great achievements and make a comeback. He had not played in the competition before, but now that he finally had the opportunity to perform, he was naturally full of energy.
The raindrops are getting heavier. Most of the rain in the demon world is a little acidic. Even if the demons are stronger than humans, they should not be exposed to the rain for a long time. However, the heavy rain in front of them has become the worst threat to the saber-toothed tiger army that attacked by surprise.
Good cover.
"After passing this hillside, there is the Walan Fortress ahead!" Geraint put away the glowing magic map. His hand holding the Dark Blood Gun tightened, "The warriors of the saber-tooth tiger. The miraculous feat of defeating the Dark Moon lies here.
In front of our eyes! Let’s give those enemies who are still sleeping a real nightmare! Before dawn, the saber-toothed tiger’s flag will be planted on the top of the Wallan Fortress!”
Walan Fortress is a medium-sized fortress built against the mountains. It stands on the only way to enter the Dark Moon Avenue. In front of it is an open space that narrows from wide to narrow, and the terrain is like a gradually shrinking pocket. This building did not take long to be built.
Behind the fortress is the newly built Valan Town. In view of the ongoing war in the northern part of Dark Moon, and the enemy is the powerful imperial capital coalition, many merchants from Dark Moon City have withdrawn, but they have not completely left Dark Moon, but are waiting and watching.
The attitude moved to Walan Town, which in turn accelerated the pace of development and construction of Walan Town, and it has become one of the most important hubs for trade in the west.
Crossing the hillside, Geraint wiped the rain off his face and looked at the fortress with soft lights in front of him. This time, he was really blessed by the devil. The heavy rain not only covered his whereabouts well, but also had the terrifying effect of the dark moon.
The accuracy and power of the magic crystal cannon will be greatly weakened.
Geraint pointed his blood gun, and the 3,500 infantrymen tried their best to calm down and sneaked towards the fortress. The cavalry carefully kept a distance and followed behind. Geraint was always alert to whether the opponent was setting up an ambush and made silent calculations.
Keeping the distance until the army passed the effective range of the magic crystal cannon unharmed, I felt relieved and ordered the soldiers to speed up and prepare to assault the city.
At this time, Geraint's ears suddenly heard a strange sound of "snatching" in the heavy rain. An unpleasant feeling suddenly surged in his heart, and he shouted: "Defense!"
Unfortunately, it was too late. By the time Geraint reacted, the unknown murderous intention had already passed through the darkness and landed on the infantry of the Saber-toothed Tiger Legion. Judging from the screams, at least three hundred people were injured.
Immediately afterwards, illuminating light balls were thrown out by some kind of mechanical spring and scattered, illuminating the entire battlefield in front of the fortress. This is a magic prop commonly used in night battles, and the light source can stay for a period of time.
Geraint's heart tightened, the enemy was actually prepared to fight!
What just killed our soldiers seemed to be some kind of powerful arrow, but even the most powerful elf archer in the ground world couldn't achieve this distance. The answer was revealed immediately, and the second round of firing from Valan Fortress has begun.
, this time, Geraint clearly saw the true face of that terrible weapon.
This is a huge "arrow" like a spear. Its range, strength or speed are extremely amazing. The shields of the infantry are as fragile as paper in the face of this terrifying "arrow". A soldier was even
The man's shield was pierced through and nailed to the ground. Immediately, the spear suddenly exploded. Countless small arrows exploded, and the nearby soldiers screamed in agony. Many fell to the ground and died. It seemed that the exploding arrows were still carrying
Highly toxic.
What kind of weapon is this! The power is so terrifying! Geraint was shocked. Ballista? No, it is definitely not an ordinary ballista!
Due to complex loading and slow speed, the ballistae has gradually faded out of the battlefield and been replaced by magic crystal cannons. The weapon suspected to be a ballistae that appeared in Walan Fortress today has exerted a lethality far beyond imagination, almost subverting the
Understand the common sense of weapons in today’s devil world!
Geraint's face was already covered with drops of water, not only rain, but also cold sweat: This kind of terrible ballistae has not been used in previous battles with the Imperial City coalition forces! How many trump cards does Dark Moon have?
Show it out?
"Infantry disperse! Cavalry follow me!"
Although the crossbow was powerful, it was not enough to affect Geraint's determination to take over the Valan Fortress, so he immediately issued an order. The cavalry quickly rushed towards the fortress, and another round of whistling sounded. The heavy crossbows were adjusted and launched very quickly.
However, the casualties caused this time were smaller, and there were not many direct hits. However, the explosive poisonous arrows were still astonishingly powerful, and many soldiers fell one after another.
The distance gradually got closer, and arrows flew out from the sky in the fortress. Mixed with the heavy rain, they poured down. From time to time, cavalry and horses fell down, and their blood was mixed with the rain and they were trampled. The cavalry held crossbows in their hands and fired back, attracting a group of firepower.
, the infantry behind followed closely.
Lakatos, the lieutenant next to Geraint and the one who rushed forward, ignited a strong blue flame with his long sword in his hand. He chanted a spell loudly, and whirlwinds rushed towards the fortress. The rain brought by the whirlwind turned to ice.
It was extremely cold. Many arrows that were blown away condensed into ice as they flew out of the air and fell to the ground one after another.
After a whirlwind, the walls of the fortress were actually frozen with a thick layer of ice, and many defenders turned into ice sculptures. If it were another world, the ice city would be more difficult for the attackers, but here it is
In a world with magic, after the storm, ladders made of ice appeared in front of the city wall.
Lactos is a dark elf with mutated bloodline who masters both martial arts and magic. He is proficient in water and wind magic, and possesses the strong strength of the first stage of the Demon King. This amazing effect in front of him mainly takes advantage of the weather of heavy rain. The infantry of the Saber-toothed Tiger all wear
Wearing special gloves, the soles of the boots also have auxiliary facilities like nail teeth, which are prepared in advance for climbing into the city.
Unfortunately, before the saber-tooth tiger infantry could get closer, the ice ladders began to melt rapidly and turned into jets of water spraying out. The water jets seemed to have been added with toxins, and green smoke erupted from the bodies of the soldiers who were splashed, and they screamed in agony.
Continuously.
Lactos frowned. This enemy who turned the ice ladder into venom was actually very poor at using his magic power, but his ability to control the water element was still better than his. With such an enemy, it would be very difficult to use magic to get into the city.
Difficult.
The sound of the heavy ballista's machine spring began to sound again, and the soldiers of the Sabre-Tooth Tiger Legion fell one after another. This radial terrain became narrower as it approached the fortress, which was quite unfavorable to the attacker.
A thought suddenly flashed through Geraint's mind. The enemy's defenses were extremely tight and highly targeted. It seemed as if they knew the Sabre-tooth Tiger Legion's surprise attack plan, manpower and strength. Could it be that...
Traitor! Someone must have revealed all the information about the surprise attack to the enemy!
This is simply a trap set in advance! Waiting for the Saber-Tooth Tiger Legion to plunge into it!
Including Geraint himself, only three people knew the overall plan. One was Regent Obsidian, and the other...
Geraint couldn't help but shudder. He no longer had the extravagant hope of capturing the Valan Fortress. He only wanted to do one thing now, and that was to escape! Even if he was punished by defeat, he still had to expose the most terrifying traitor.
come out!
"Retreat! Retreat to Laiya Town immediately!"
Just as Geraint quickly retreated with the remaining troops, a group of dark figures suddenly appeared, blocking the way. From the light of the lighting ball, we could see that these enemies were tall and strong, wearing chain armor, and holding weapons in their hands.
Heavy weapons such as axes, hammers, and flails have the most peculiar heads, which are bull heads.
"Tauren!" Geraint was surprised. There were at least two thousand of these minotaurs, equivalent to a large group. They definitely did not appear here by chance. Could it be that in addition to Medusa and the flying dragon army, Dark Moon also
Is there a tauren army?
Minotaurs and Medusas are both highly intelligent monsters that cannot be tamed like the flying dragons. Even the entire Fallen Angel Empire does not have such special troops. Unexpectedly, Dark Moon actually has one!
At this time, the gate of Walan Fortress opened, and a large group of people rushed out with shouts, obviously intending to encircle them from both sides and annihilate the entire saber-toothed tiger army here.
Geraint's heart sank, knowing that he was in a desperate situation, he swung the Dark Blood Spear, bathed his body in fire, and transformed into the fighting form of the great devil, shouting: "Break through with all your strength!"
The cavalrymen raised their spears and rushed bravely towards the tauren blocking the way. The tauren all beat their chests and shouted. A strange red halo appeared under their feet, and they faced the cavalrymen with frightening steps.
The cavalry at the front was about to stab the enemy with a spear, when suddenly a huge mace appeared above his head, with a "boom", and before he could even scream, the whole person and the horse were smashed into a pile of rotten flesh, similar to
The scene unfolded in the next moment. The fighting power of these minotaurs was astonishingly powerful, and their equipment was so well-equipped that it was unbelievable. The cavalry used their horse power to thrust their spears, but they were unable to penetrate the shining silver of the minotaurs.
of chain mail.
"Lactos! You try to open a breakthrough! I will hold back the enemies behind!" Geraint shouted, shook the reins, and rushed towards the rear with the cavalry.
"Understood!" Lactos jumped up from his mount and floated in the air. He pointed the long sword in his hand towards the rainy sky. Several bolts of lightning suddenly fell from the sky. They were attracted to the sword by strange power. Lactos raised it high.
The long sword entwined with lightning flew towards the tauren, and struck down with one strike in the air.
All the Minotaurs within a radius of about twenty meters only saw the flash of blue electric light. They had no time to resist and were all knocked away by the high-voltage current. The chain armor with strong defense became an excellent conductor in front of the lightning and was struck by lightning.
The flying tauren fell to the ground, trembling all over and losing their fighting power. This was because the tauren had an anti-demon physique. If they were ordinary demons, they would have been turned into charcoal.
Lactos succeeded with one blow and fell to the ground. He was about to cast magic again when he suddenly sensed danger. He turned back and blocked the sword with his sword. Sparks flew everywhere and he staggered back a few steps. Behind him was a taller than ordinary tauren.
The tauren holds a big ax and a huge shield in his hand. Judging from his aura, he seems to be the mutated leader of the Demon King's first stage.
