Chapter 532: Shadow of Death
The big black hand once again crushed a wall, and the unexpected change made most of the Monsuts gathered in the previous rift have no chance to react, and the Assut Horsemen were far superior to the Monsutters in both nervous reaction and speed.
Some of the horsemen quickly sprinted towards the second rift under the leadership of the reacting chieftain, and in a hurry, the prince could not help in time, and the current situation of the first rift did not allow for the division of troops, which would only make the first rift that was struggling to support also collapse on the spot.
This is an unexpected variable, but it is not the most dangerous situation.
Ugash has struggled on the brink of despair for thousands of years, and no one knows the horror of Wumas better than Monssutria, and now it is only the tip of the iceberg.
Fear lies in the imperfect creature's hatred of its own flaws, and its visceral jealousy and rejection of the flawless perfect monster, and when any rejection is ineffective, and the perfect monster reveals its tyrannical side, fear arises.
……
A child of fear, a powerful warrior, a spellcaster of terror, a brilliant military commander, and a charismatic ruler and ruler......
Countless halos were placed on the black-haired monster in front of him, and one by one, the ferocious horsemen accepted the command of the 'Children of Fear' with great respect and ferocity, and launched a rallying attack along the two rifts.
The crown prince watched almost coldly, and the second rift was completely crushed, and the civilians, soldiers, and slaves who tried to plug the rift frantically poured out under the attack of the horse people...... No, it should be slaughtered, routing at an alarming rate.
Stubborn will and courageous determination seemed to work in the face of such an efficient and ruthless killing, and the Assut Horsemen had already stormed the city.
For ordinary cities, the city wall is the only and last barrier, once breached, it means the end of the battlefield;
However, for the city-state of Monsut, who lived in the Land of Hope, the defeat on the walls meant the end of one war and the beginning of another, more brutal war.
Sou! Sou! Sou!
Almost at the moment when Ma Min invaded the city, several neighboring houses suddenly triggered the mechanism, countless sharp arrows flew out, and at the same time, the underground stone bricks quickly disintegrated, and from the cracks, sharp blades staggered back and forth.
The sudden attack splits several ponies on the spot, but for the 'majority' who all have a [Sixth Sense] and have an agility and spirit value of more than 20, such a trap is just a bit of unexpected fun to the restless life that is too smooth.
At the end of the attack, the houses exploded, and the sky-high flames sealed the entire street, and from a farther distance, the hidden elite guards of Monsut drew their bows and arrows, as if receiving a signal, and launched a continuous fire on the burning street.
Nightshade noticed that a small piece of pale orange hedron was tied to the tip of each arrow.
This is a rudimentary catalyst taken from saltpeter that is used to amplify the fire by throwing fire into the explosion and has a chance of causing a secondary explosion.
Almost at the cost of self-destruction, Ugash will stop at nothing to stop the siege of the horse people.
With a sharp trumpet, the gates of the palace slowly opened, and countless heavy cavalry in iron armor, riding horses, armed with dragon spears, spears, maces, and giant scythes slowly appeared.
It is a 'tin can' cavalry that can only be seen in the Middle Ages, armed to the teeth as steel beasts that can break down a wall with a single rally charge, albeit at the cost of self-destruction.
Blessed with countless sacrificial hymns and war songs, the cavalry regiment pointed its head at the burning street, and then, with the slogan of "Ugash" chanted in unison, the earth rushed and roared, and the Asuth horsemen who survived a series of blows greeted the fierce charge of the most elite troops of the Monsutes, who had been hidden until now.
The result can be glimpsed from the discolored face of the chief chief.
……
Armed with the Knife of Despair, the night walks the deserted streets.
This is another part of Ugash, and behind the night is the back of the palace, and when you look up, you can see a majestic figure standing on a high place, watching the situation of battle change from afar.
He was the king, guardian and greatest ruler of the city-state.
The farce came to an end for the time being, and Night, seeing something more interesting, left early, aiming for the Great Temple dedicated to the gods.
The temple is crowned with pure white marble pillars that support a magnificent round dome, and countless full-length and half-length statues stand on the path leading to the temple.
White is followed by gold, and the splendid hall is embellished with red, blue, and green gemstones, and in the land of hope, where materials are extremely scarce, the so-called gold and precious stones are no longer luxuries, but some 'good-looking garbage' that has lost its mediatorship.
The god 'Sumon' worshipped by the Monsut people was placed in the Great Temple.
There was no priest present in front of him, and in the empty hall, he looked up at the statue.
In the eyes of the cultists, the 'Sumeng God' is portrayed as a middle-aged man with a half-human, half-fish body, with strong and perfect muscles and a thick and vigorous beard, holding a strange weapon with six blades diagonally behind himself in one hand, and a scroll of iron in the palm of his hand with the other in front of his eyes.
What makes it interesting to say is that the weapon is almost identical to the Dark Trident with the tips of the other three halberds.
……
The heavy cavalry charge inflicted heavy casualties on the horsemen after the first siege.
The previous series of ambushes were aimed at clearing the streets and blocking the roads, completely confined the invaders to specific positions, and the inevitable heavy cavalry charge was blessed by the sacrifice, and they were not afraid of the flames, so that the horsemen had no way to retreat, so that the horsemen had no way to retreat, and they could only detonate their ferocity and collide with the incoming heavy cavalry.
The violent impact instantly blew down all the buildings on the entire street, and the accompanying strong wind pressure reacted against both sides under the collision and twisting of the two rising spiral impulses.
For a time, the earth was torn into several ravines, isolating the entire battlefield and even causing land subsidence.
The first three rows of heavy cavalry armed with spears and dragon spears twisted their wrists into a miserable spiral under the huge force of the impact, and at the cost of this, the weapons successfully penetrated the bodies of the horses in the front row, and in their continuous roar, they slammed into the second row with inertia, stringing together the second group of victims.
At the cost of almost all the same, the Ma Min managed to suffer heavy losses, and the chief at the head even let out a terrifying scream.
However, black clouds followed.
