Chapter 286: The Battle of the Strong (Third Update)

North of the Black Rock Fortress, behind the remnants of the coalition army.

A raging flame that consumed everything. Supplies, corpses, tents...... All burned to the ground.

The firelight jumped, and the faces of the knights were expressionless, like stone statues.

On this day, they violated the knightly creed more times than in their lifetime.

"In the rear of the remnant army, there are already rearguard troops who have begun to rescue and protect the supply base," Bai Xiaowen said, "The difficulty of destroying the base will gradually increase...... Moreover, our situation will become more and more dangerous, and the real fierce battle will not begin until the main force of the remnant coalition army retreats. ”

"Get on your horse, next supply base, let's go!"

......

Black Rock Fortress, a frontal battlefield.

The Great Chief of the Remnant Alliance, Abu Solon, rode a giant wolf and brandished a huge battle axe, and rushed under the city walls.

Bang!

An axe fell, and the heavy city gate shook violently.

"Can't even the specially reinforced city gate stop this guy......" The high-level of the human coalition army on the city wall was surprised, this city gate was strong enough to withstand the impact of the ram, but Absolon's axe went down, and there were signs of failure.

However, before Absolon could swing his second axe, a dense mass of stones and boiling oil poured down from the walls. This powerful orc chief also had to take a dozen steps back to avoid it.

At this moment, the city gate opened, and a group of knights rushed out of the city gate like a storm!

The phantom of a giant hammer smashed down, and Prince Nicholas launched the Hammer of Heaven skill, and the wolf cavalry around Absolon was smashed into a pool of flesh and bones, and only Absolon resisted the damage of this hammer and did not trigger the instant kill.

"Are you the prince of the Human Empire......

Absolon smiled wickedly, "There are two hits, but if you want to fight me, it's still a long way off!"

No matter how many elite or even chief-level knights there were behind Prince Nicholas, Absolon was undaunted, brandishing a giant axe and rushing forward, slashing down one knight in half, and leaving a tragic wound on the second knight.

On the city wall, a ray of light spilled down, and the wound on the second knight's body healed quickly.

The sound of prayer rang out, and the golden rays shrouded Prince Nicholas's body, his strength increased greatly, and the warhammer smashed down with great force.

There was a loud thud, and both Nicholas and Absolon shook violently. Both of them received some shock damage.

"Damn, if you don't have a blessing spell on you, you can't compete with me!" Absolon roared in the language of the Remnant, wielding a great axe and grappling with Nicholas.

However, Nicholas's health is depleted and will be treated promptly and effectively, while Absolon's health will be reduced but will not be effectively restored. And a group of knights led by Nicholas surrounded Absolon, stabbing with spears and slashing with swords.

"Roar!" Absolon roared angrily as he raised his head to the sky, and a blood-colored fluctuation visible to the naked eye spread violently. More than half of the knights have been in a state of vertigo for a long time, and the stronger people such as Nicholas and Earl Denton are also stiff.

Absolon leaped from the wolf's back and slashed down with an axe.

Nicholas's armor shimmered with a brilliant blue glow, and the three layers of blue light shimmered shields stretched out!

When!

With an astonishing bang, the four hooves of Nicholas's beloved horse under his crotch suddenly sank into the frozen ground below, and all of them snapped! This blow actually killed Nicholas's horse alive, and caused quite a high shock damage, but it was all offset by the blue shield.

Nicholas was also enraged, and struck Absolon's great axe with a single blow, knocking it back.

Just when there was a fierce battle at the city gate, suddenly, there was a desolate horn sound from the camp of the remnants coalition army.

"Signal to retreat?"

Absolon was stunned, shocked and angry, "Without my order, who gave the signal to retreat? I am the commander!"

A bald troll riding a tall velociraptor leaped over and said loudly, "Great Chief, more than ten clan leaders have jointly asked to retreat, which is why the signal for retreat has been sounded!

After the retreat signal sounded, the remnant coalition army that had been attached to the walls of the Black Rock Fortress quickly retreated like the tide of the sea.

No matter how brave Absolon was, he would not dare to leave alone. He snorted, flapped the wolf, and joined the ebb and flow of the army.

Prince Nicholas led his army to cover the killing, but he did not dare to pursue it deeply, let alone leave the range of the defenders of the city walls.

"It seems that Dior's battle has been successful," said the Earl of Denton in a low voice, "Your Royal Highness, this first siege of the city, we can be regarded as defending. ”

"Yes, now let's hope he can get out of the fortress and return to the fortress......" Nicholas said.

......

"Why retreat!"

On the way to retreat, Absolon said angrily.

A red-haired, braided troll spread his hands and said, "Great Chief, there's something wrong with our rear...... Three supply bases have already been attacked by humans, and thousands of logistics personnel have been killed......"

"It's just three supply points, what's it?" Absolon was furious, "If you all followed my charge, you would have killed that human prince and entered Black Rock City!

"Absolon, we are not like you," said another short, anvil-like orc, "the families of our clan leaders are in the rear, and yours are with you. ”

"One more thing, if you can't attack Black Rock Castle and all the strongholds are burned down, what will the warriors eat? Are you hungry to fight?" said another clan leader.

"Yes, Absolon, you are brave, but you are not all waste among the human race, and that prince can withstand your attack...... Black Rock City, it's not so easy to take down, even if we rush up, there are other strong human beings who will stop us. ”

"It is said that Kelman's troops were lost at the hands of an archbishop who could cast forbidden spells, and imagine that in the middle of a battle, if that terrible forbidden spell fell on our heads...... Even with our strength, it is estimated that there will be more than one luck. ”

"That's right, after clearing the rear, let's slowly attack Black Rock City. ”

Absolon snorted heavily, although he was strong, but in this troublesome gathering of clan leaders, he felt that there was nowhere to use it, and he was very depressed.
