Chapter 799: The conspiracy is spreading
"Proof it to me?" The man in the cloak slowly raised his head, revealing a look of disdain. "You don't understand anything at all, look at these rabble, you think you can destroy Henry by numbers. Angome? All it takes is a powerful legendary spell to wipe this so-called army off the map. ”
"Humph! Do you think I'm going to believe this nonsense? Erase armies from the map? That's something that only the great Guush can do, how could a fragile human wizard have such great power. ”
One-Eyed Ront obviously does not believe in the destructive power of the so-called legendary magic, he is from the Wild Lands and rarely even sees real mages, most of them are priests, shamans, druids and other magic users, and more than 90% have not been systematically trained, they can't cast any powerful spells at all, and over time they lose their fear of supernatural abilities.
The inhabitants of this savage, primitive, and ignorant land prefer to believe in the violence of swords and muscles, and One-Eyed Ront happens to be the best of them, and the arrogant character who once killed the dragon is convinced of his own judgment, so it is obviously impossible to convince such a creature to change his opinion.
The man dressed as a mage stared at the old orc in front of him, known as the legend of the wasteland, and said with a sneer: "One-eyed Ronte, please remember that the reason why you have the opportunity to become the leader of this army is all due to our Yin Soul City, if you dare to disobey Prince Revaran's orders, then we don't mind changing someone." ”
"Are you threatening me?" Lunt clenched his fists and asked. The muscles of his whole body were tense at the moment, and his other hand grabbed a two-handed axe, and he could burst out and kill at any time.
"Nope. I'm just telling you a fact. In front of a powerful spellcaster. Numbers are no longer decisive, just as your empty threat can never hurt me. Do it yourself, His Royal Highness doesn't like losers. After speaking, the man's figure became more and more blurred, and finally disappeared without a trace like a bubble with a bang.
There was no doubt that the coalition of the wild tribes was also part of a larger conspiracy, and Revaran was clearly trying to provoke Henry's hidden anger and draw attention to it. Because he knows very well that anger is the beginning of all negative feelings. Only those who are in anger lose their minds completely.
With a hideous expression, Lunte glared at the entourage around him and shouted, "Look at what! He's just a tricky human wizard, and I'm the strongest in this wasteland. Under the blessing of the great Guush, no one could stop the armies of the orcs. ”
"Of course, you are a living legend, the most powerful orc warrior of centuries, and all the tribes will be led by you to slay all the betrayers, and the nascent human kingdom will be destroyed. Praise be to the great Guush, who will bless all the strong warriors on the road to conquest. ”
The orc with the horn in hand fell to one knee and shouted excitedly, and judging by the fervent eyes in his eyes, this guy completely worshipped the one-eyed Lunt as a god walking on earth.
"Excellent! Now let those filthy goblins raid the nearby villages. I will hear the screams and wails of those weak human beings, and declare them to the world with their blood. The age of the orcs has come! Lunt raised his right hand and brainwashed and demagogized his followers in highly inflammatory language.
The reason why he was able to establish supremacy among the strongest tribes was that he was naturally not a barbarian who only used violence, and he was quite good at winning over people's hearts, otherwise he would have died a long time ago.
As the horn sounded again, the goblins with no end in sight finally waited for the long-awaited ransacking order, and they all shouted loudly and swarmed in the direction of the human settlement. Although they are very weak individually, they can cause great damage once their numbers exceed thousands.
Over the next few days, an overwhelming number of goblins swept through all the villages north of Wywood, but fortunately Fugner sent scouts in advance to warn them, and most of the inhabitants had already left, except for a small number of slower ones who did not have time to escape.
In a flash, the northern border of the Kingdom of West Hartland was filled with smoke, and the largest tribal coalition in history was threatening the lives and property of countless people.
The city of Wywood has been under martial law since the safe return of the large army, and the buildings near the city gate have been cleared, ballistas, arrows, stones, logs, and grease have been transported to the city walls, thousands of heavily armed soldiers have been on guard 24 hours a day, and the cavalry has been sent out to inquire about the news.
Fleeing in droves flocked to the last northern fortress, young men invariably acquired a weapon and were then integrated into the militia, which would be supplemented by the orc soldiers if they suffered heavy casualties when the war began.
Everyone knows very well that this is a barbarian invasion of civilization, there is no reason to talk about it, and it is only possible to survive if you hold on, because the primitive tribes never take in captives, all they need is food and the necessities of life.
Perhaps it took too long to sweep through the surrounding villages, or perhaps it was an attempt to make the enemy taste pain and suffering, One-Eyed Ront did not appear on the horizon far away from Wywood until ten days later.
Accompanied by the earth-shattering war drums and desolate horns, the endless torrent of destruction shook every soldier standing on the city wall, and they didn't know how to describe how they felt at the bottom of their hearts at the moment, and the panic was spreading rapidly......
"Hehe, One-Eyed Lonte really looks up to me, and he actually dispatched such a big battle, fortunately, the material reserves in the city are sufficient, otherwise I am afraid that I will not even be able to hold on for ten days." Fugna said with a wry smile on his face as he stood on the arrow tower.
Allen, who was standing next to him, counted the number of enemies very calmly, and then lowered his voice and asked, "How long are you sure to hold on?" There are at least 100,000 of these guys, and we only have 30,000 to 40,000 of them, including the elderly, the weak, women and children. ”
Fugner sighed slightly, and pointed to the giant swamp multi-headed lizard walking in front: "Did you see that monster?" If it doesn't participate in the siege, I'm sure I'll hold it for at least a month. Because the other side doesn't have many spellcasters. And apparently didn't bring any siege equipment. So the only way is to climb the city walls. ”
As he spoke, an arc crossed the corner of his mouth. showed a cruel smile: "Rolling logs, falling rocks, grease, arrow rain, we have countless ways to make the enemy suffer heavy losses, plus the crocodiles raised in the moat, just rushing to the city wall will kill and wound more than half of them, not to mention the support of the mage tower, there is no need to worry about breaking the city in a short time." ”
"And what if the multi-headed lizard joins the attack sequence?" Alan asked with a frown.
As a psychic and mage, he can easily sense a person's thoughts, and Fugner's faint uneasiness is very well hidden. But in front of the psychic mancer, it is completely unguarded.
"Well, well, now that you've seen it, I don't have to hide it anymore. Let's be honest, it's not much worse than a dragon at all, a normal weapon can't penetrate its sturdy scales at all, and it would be catastrophic if it were added to the engineering sequence, and I'm not sure how many people would have to die to kill it. After saying that, Fugner's face instantly turned gloomy, and his eyes were full of anxiety.
When he was younger, he had encountered multiple lizards during his adventures, and the entire elite team of twelve people did not even have the strength to fight back. Within a few minutes, it became the food in the other party's mouth, and if he hadn't run fast, I'm afraid he would have been buried with him.
This terrifying beast can not only attack multiple targets at once. And it has a terrifying regenerative ability, if you cut off one of its heads, it will grow another one in a very short time, and it won't do anything unless you cut off all the heads at once.
It is conceivable that if the huge multi-headed lizard launched a direct attack on the wall, it would be almost impossible for ordinary soldiers to resist, and within a few seconds a clearing would be called in, and the enemy would be able to climb up the ladder easily, and when the number reached a certain level, the wall would almost be declared lost.
Alan nodded lightly: "Then it can last as long as it lasts, I hope my father can come over before it is lost, otherwise the city may be completely finished." Rest assured, if the lizard starts to attack the city, the Mage Tower will activate the Reserve Energy to activate a powerful killing spell, ensuring that it will not be allowed to approach the walls lightly. ”
"Thank you very much, there is nothing more reassuring at this time than the power of magic. Other than that...... There's something I'd like to ask you for. Fugner kept his voice to a minimum. If it's convenient, can I get my wife to move to the Mage Tower for a few days, if so...... If the city is lost...... Please leave with her, and I will hold on until the last moment, living and dying with this city. ”
"No problem, but I think my father should have arrived with reinforcements before the city was breached, after all, he took the development of the northern region very seriously, and would never allow anyone to ruin the whole plan. You should know that when he gets angry......"
Alan didn't finish the rest of the sentence, but glanced at the Clan alliance that was slowly approaching outside the city, and a sarcastic smile appeared on his face......
Ever since he had gone through a series of thrilling journeys underground, he hadn't paid any attention to the rabble gathered in these wild places, especially the gorgeous battle between the army of undead creatures of the Ring of Truth and the Eye Demon, and the two sides could easily sweep away the enemies in front of them by pulling out some of them.
The boy could already imagine his father's violent reaction when he heard the news.
Maybe......
This war has been a smoke bomb for attention from the start, and these silly monsters are nothing more than a bunch of cannon fodder to distract them, and there must be a follow-up to them.
"The strategy of one ring after another, who laid out such a complicated chess game? I'm really getting more and more interested in the real world. Father, let me see how you deal with the enemy's machination...... But in between, I want to use this war to train myself, after all, I still have to speak with strength. ”
After Eren finished muttering to himself, he directly put on his hood and at the same time loosened the pocket of the spell casting material, fully prepared for battle. He understands how important experience is for a spellcaster, and that large-scale siege battles are the best opportunity......
