Chapter 532: The moon is not dark, and the wind is not high

The scale of this castle is indeed not small. There are four buildings on the plain leveled down by the mountain, which are where Lu Xi and his family are located, and there should be a large stone castle with more than five floors, and three slightly lower sub-castles with the city wall and stone bridge through Guò. At least three circles were built around the four buildings, the highest point of which was more than 20 meters, and was densely packed with arrow towers and watchtowers of varying heights. The area surrounded by castles and walls is also divided into school yards, animal stables, and storehouses. If it is really to be used at full capacity, it can be visually accommodated a garrison of at least five or six thousand people.

In ancient times tens of thousands of years ago, the Sammanshire were able to build such a huge military fortress in the steep mountains, and it is indeed necessary to admit that the construction technology of these "ancients" is indeed very strong, although it is said that they used the support of elves and dragons, but at least the main body of this castle was built by others. On the other hand, it can only show that these "ancients" are really quite desperate once they are on the airwaves.

Such a large military fortress, if it weren't for Lu Xi's holographic map of the Second Eye in the God of War, he would have been lost even if he stayed for another three days.

As for the words of others...... With Anji here, you shouldn't get lost, right? I hope that the Star Spirit Sister Paper is really like what she said, she has indeed been in the castle for a night, and is already completely familiar with its internal structure.

Lu Xi thought as he and Nicole rushed downstairs quickly. If the map doesn't pit him, there is a door on the left side of the third floor of the castle, which leads to the first layer of the outer wall through the Guò stone bridge. The two walls of this castle are also connected, and Lu Xi decided to pass the city wall to the original plan and the confluence point - the city gate to everyone before turning, again. He can also take out orc soldiers on the walls and turrets by the way. You know, most of the enemies who were resting in the castle had already been burned to death. The biggest threat to everyone now is precisely these night vigil sentinels and patrols. Once the orc strongbowmen came, there were dozens of them. Standing condescendingly on the city wall and firing arrows, even Lu Xi himself found it difficult to parry.

The first encounter with the enemy came quickly, and not in the vicinity of the outer walls or towers, as initially expected. When the two of them had just descended to the third floor, several strong orcs were already facing them, and they were already rushing towards them with their teeth and claws. They were all naked, apparently just awakened from their sleep, but at least they remembered to have their weapons in hand.

Of course, the orcs were originally a people who lacked iron, and the small amount of refined iron smuggled in was also used to make weapons. As for the big iron-eaters who consume more materials than weapons - armor. That's almost like a luxury. Even a super tyrant like the Burning Blade Clan was barely a little wider after the reign of "Dragonheart" Asog, and finally began to equip his diehards with unified armor.

Therefore, for the vast majority of orc ordinary warriors, their bodies that are much stronger and stronger than humans are the best armor, and fighting naked does not necessarily affect their combat effectiveness, or it is more convenient for them to play. You don't see it on the battlefield, many orcs in order to grab military merits when it is convenient to move, but they think that armor and clothes are in the way, and often take off a piece of knife and go into battle shirtless.

Bare ass orc soldiers. They let out a desolate roar, green or brown skin, muscles forged like fine iron, and huge things far more than the average human in their crotch even loomed as they ran. Each of them is a perfect collection of hormones.

Lu Xi felt angry. He felt that he must not let his innocent and lovely elf girl paper see such a dirty scene that stained his eyes. Of course, he also said that he is definitely not jealous of other people's fruit bodies and roots that seem to be filled with male hormones in every cell.

"Miscellaneous soldiers, don't come and die!" The World Tree Scepter in his hand slashed at the ground. The blades formed by lightning and lightning seemed to be grasped by an invisible hand, and they took a deadly trajectory. The heads of the four orcs who rushed to the front rose to the sky on the spot. The last two were slammed against the wall by the impact of lightning, and by the time they collapsed to the ground, they had become charred corpses. It even emitted a frowning smell of burning.

These six orc soldiers who were shirtless and had stabbed knives to the extreme, and they hadn't even let Lu Xi and Nicole's footsteps fill half an hour. However, they still contributed nearly a thousand experience points to Lu Xi, and from the perspective of the protagonist, it can be regarded as a well-deserved death.

By this time, the two had rushed along the open side gate of the castle to the stone bridge outside the door. At this time, a thin white of fish belly had just appeared on the horizon, but the sun had not yet risen, and the night was still reluctant to go away, and the fire and smoke coming out of the windows on the lower floors of the castle were so dense that the sight was still greatly affected.

Of course, this kind of visibility was enough for a pure-blood elf nobleman like Nicole, and the three arrows she held in her hand had already come out of the string at the same moment, biting the throats of three orc strongbowmen in less than half a second. The unfortunate ones who were hit by the arrows didn't even let out a scream, and just clutched their torn throats and fell down from the city wall.

Because it happened so quickly, another orc strong archer didn't react until his comrades around him had been cut through the throat by a cold arrow. His reaction was very sharp, and he actually saw Lu Xi and Nicole rushing out of the castle at a glance, and hurriedly bent his bow and arrows; His movements were also calm, knowing that the enemy had killed three of his comrades in an instant, but his action of taking arrows and firing the bow seemed to be very steady, at least he did not delay his attack efficiency because of nervousness.

But that's about it. The bow in his hand was not halfway open, and a bullet whizzed and tore the orc archerman's head into a pulp. Compared to the three companions who were pierced through the throat, his death was actually the most tragic.

Lu Xi had already heard the shouting of killing coming from the direction of the city gate, and it should be the "large army" ambushed on the mountain led by Major Grimmar and Viscount Mura who was killing and responding. Of course, it is said that it is a large army, but in fact, it is only a few dozen people. It will take a little time to quickly clean up the guards and rush over. Also, where is Lim's team responsible for setting fires and rescuing hostages? It can't be a big boss or something, right? Belch. Shouldn't it? If this was the case, Angie would have sent a notice a long time ago.

After all, you should go to the city gate and meet Major Grimmar first. Still rushing back to find Lim, Lu Xi only hesitated for less than a second on this question. Soon, not only dense and pungent black smoke poured out from the gate of the castle, but also a large number of people, of course, not orc garrisons, but a group of ragged, beggar refugees-like humans, who should have just escaped from the federal prisoners of war. Of course, not all of them are like this. The green-haired girl with the most vivid armor and the most full spirit is rushing to the front of the team with double swords, who else can it be if it is not Lu Xi's three-free doll and four-sword sword?

At this time, the shouts and killings around the castle have gradually intensified, and it should be that the orcs who have woken up have joined the battle group one after another. Lu Xi had never expected a single fire to burn all the enemies in the castle to death, and this kind of resistance from Cheng Dù had long been expected by him. What's more, although the shouts of killing are endless, they always seem particularly messy and scattered, and they are obviously unorganized. Thinking that he still knew how to clear out the enemy's command layer in advance, Lu Xi felt that this protagonist was really too prescient and witty.

"Lim, lead everyone to the city gate!" Lu Xi shouted loudly to Lim, "Wait. You're ahead! ”

Sanwu Doll Jianhao soon saw Lu Xi standing at the height of the city wall, she still didn't answer in words, but nodded very firmly, and then swung the sword in her right hand forward. Precisely sliced a long rod-shaped object that had flown in front of him, almost as thick as a spear, into two.

"Scorpion crossbow? When did orcs have such a high-end thing? ”

A weapon that could nail three or four people together at once was cut open by Lim with an understatement. If there is no zài for her deposit. The newly rescued captives behind him must have faced great casualties.

Lu Xi looked at the team below: most of them naturally seemed to be a group of refugees who had been hungry for more than ten days, and their mental exhaustion and gray face were only one aspect. After all, in this situation of being about to escape, even if you are tired and tired, you will be a little excited. However, many people have injuries on their bodies, and there are not a few who lack arms and legs and are unable to move. Like Captain Rayson, that guy is now closely following Lim with a girl on his back, presumably his goddess Rena? Miss Millster.

"Hey, even if we rescue everyone, our 25,000-mile long march will only go a little bit at most!" Lu Xi sighed that real life was really troublesome, and at the same time, he had already thrown a series of fireballs towards the opposite tower. Just now, the giant ballista, which was as formidable as a spear, was fired from the hole there. Discordant props like the scorpion crossbow, which pose a great threat to everyone, should be eliminated as much as possible, and at this time, even Lu Xi didn't have the heart to catch one or two orcs alive and torture them to ask why they had such high-end weapons, and the left and right were just smuggled from somewhere.

Five fireballs formed a red bead of light and heat, and three of them hit the outer stone wall of the tower, and the explosion raised a dizzying cloud of dust, which is really worthy of a building that has been handed down from the time of the ancient empire, and it can last for 10,000 years, and naturally it will not collapse so easily. Although the tower was hidden in a cloud of boiling smoke and dust by the flames of the explosion, and even seemed to sway slightly, it still stood proudly, and if it were an ordinary human building, it would have been shattered like cheap building blocks in such an attack just now.

However, although the tower stands, its threat should have been lifted. Two fireballs had already penetrated through the holes, as precise as arrows shot by top-notch archers. The fireball exploded in a chain inside, and the hot air currents lifted the tower's ceiling like the steam produced by boiling water. In this kind of scene, if the orc warrior and scorpion crossbow in it are still there, the protagonist's aura is about to break through the sky, and Lu Xi feels that he should sacrifice his knees to the other party on the spot. Of course, the fact that the two red dots in the hologram at that location disappeared directly after the explosion is also fully proof of this.

"The control power of magic is still insufficient!" Lu Xi sighed silently in his heart, if it was his invincible old man. All five fireballs must have gotten into that hole. In this way, even the tower hid a dozen heavily armed enemies. It will also be accompanied by the bones of the sturdy tower that has been preserved for more than 10,000 years.

"By the way, I shouldn't be destroying cultural relics like this, right? It's been more than 10,000 years. He thought. The footsteps on the soles of his feet did not completely stop, and he released three consecutive fireballs, so that all the towers on the first wall inside were silent, and then rushed along the stone bridge to the second wall on the outside. At this time, Nicole had used up all the arrows in the quiver on her back, killed at least twenty orc strong archers, drew out the wheel blade and leaf-shaped short sword, and followed closely by Lu Xi's side.

Most of the enemy who condescendingly fired cold arrows at him were damaged, and the captive team led by Lim moved much faster. Many of them had already been killed by enemy arrows, and some of their comrades with courage and responsibility had intercepted the assembled orc soldiers after the castle had been broken, but most of them had made it to the first wall intact. By this time, they could even see their comrades at the gates of the city.

The troops led by Major Grimmar and Viscount Mura were fighting fiercely at the gates of the city, and in addition to the goblins and dogleg servant soldiers who were more than three times their size, they were harassing from the side. Under normal circumstances, an orc soldier can overwhelm two or three heavily armed human soldiers with his brute strength and physique, while goblins and doglegs are among those cannon fodder who are completely useless in most cases. But once your own troops are enough, and if you are under the supervision of the master, you will still have a little combat effectiveness. If it weren't for the mental arithmetic, everyone would use the night that had not yet dispersed in the early morning as a cover. The sudden attack caught the enemy by surprise, and the noise and fire of the castle behind them made these orc soldiers even more shocked and demoralized. There is really no chance of winning this battle.

But now, the battle situation is actually "opposite" to common sense. The orc guards were slow to get reinforcements and command from their superiors. Viscount Mula, a gold-level Nord heavy samurai, is indeed amazing in combat power, and a two-handed sword that can only be used by ordinary people's hands is running like flying with one hand. In the other hand, there was still room for a kite-shaped shield, which was mainly used to cover the comrades on his side. Viscount Mura single-handedly blocked most of the orcs' attacks, and also created the enemy's battle dead at an average high speed of five seconds, and if he continued to fight like this, even if the captives who did not come from behind were attacked from both sides, the orcs would definitely lose.

Goblins and doglegs don't have high IQs, but the fact that these weak creatures have survived to this day, and the fact that their population is still growing, at least shows that they are very capable of sensing danger. Even under the strong onlookers of their masters, they did have a tendency to retreat and collapse.

Perhaps sensing this, the only minotaur shaman in the orc army roared, swung his giant axe and slashed the two goblins who were cowering at the rear, and after temporarily deterring these imminent servants with harsh methods, he took a wooden pillar about a man high from his back, carved with various ornaments with strange shapes and primitive tribal style totem patterns, and then prepared to nail it to the ground.

This must be some kind of totem pole that can boost morale and blood. If this thing starts to unleash its magic, the crumbling morale of the goblins and doglegs should be restored, and the inferior orc guards can double their strength, and maybe the tide of battle will change.

The Minotaur Shaman's idea was perfect, but two obsidian hedron-propelled bullets whizzed, one breaking the wooden totem pole and the other tearing his head open. The minotaur shaman didn't even have time to let out a scream, and he fell to the ground and died on the spot.

The death of the shaman was the straw that broke the camel's back, and the morale of the goblins and doglegs began to crumble completely. Even their terrible masters, who were still fighting, couldn't stop their genetic cowardice, and they let out a sharp rat-like scream, and they scattered in a hurry. And at this time, the team led by Lim had also rushed over, forming a perfect flanking offensive. The three-in-four sword-flowing doll Jianhao didn't pay attention to these servants and miscellaneous soldiers who were scattered and fled in front of him, and came to the end of the team with a dash of the sword, and with a dazzling flash of the sword, four orc guards fell to the ground and died holding the key points of the sword.

Fighting, there is no suspense anymore.

Five seconds later, Lucy and Nicole leaped down the walls and stepped the head of a still stubborn orc guard directly into his shoulder. This is also the last enemy still fighting.

Lim tilted her head, looked at Lu Xi, and then at Nicole, although she was still expressionless and didn't say anything, but her big emerald eyes blinked unnaturally, as if she felt very unhappy that these two people had stolen the limelight from the sky so violently.

Lu Xi didn't have time to comfort the other party, at this time, the holographic map in his eyes flickered for a moment, and then disappeared, and the dizziness in his brain made him lose his mind for a moment, he knew that this was a sign that his magic power was running out. Although his magic power has increased a lot compared to when he first obtained this second-level explosive skill, the Demon Consumption of the God of War's True Eye upgraded to level 3 is naturally not the same.

In public, you can't let me play shame on the spot, right? Lu Xi smiled bitterly in his mind, glanced at the team that had been captured, and quickly counted the number of people.

"Uh...... Where is Captain Rayson? (To be continued......)

PS: It's the last day of February, but the year hasn't been strictly over, so give me the last ticket at the end of the month
