Chapter 0821: Dry Water City

With a low roar of anguish and indignation, the orc shaman finally fell under the onslaught of Ames and Grim.

Several shield defenders who had been prepared for a long time took heavy steps, dragging the charred body of the orc shaman and the dying Lei Peng back to the rear of the battlefield.

Grim and Arms didn't hesitate, and after a little communication, they rose up and pounced on another lone Tier 3 centaur.

Elsewhere on the battlefield, the Goblin Rippers commanded by Mary and Tigul are also stealthily hunting down the Tier 2 orcs who are under siege.

With the full superiority of the witches' side, the main force of the orcs was blocked in the sky, so there were no more powerful elites left in the 2nd and 3rd order powerhouses left on the battlefield.

And the wizards are all good at strange witchcraft, plus they fight more and less, so throughout the battlefield, you can see the tragic scene of the orc strong being besieged almost everywhere. As these orc elites were eradicated one by one, the orc legion, which was already on the verge of collapse, finally began to rout.

War has always been so cruel!

If the orcs are as strong as a rainbow, they dare to launch a rapid charge against the corpse tide even with a hundred people. But once the morale collapses, even if the orc army still has nearly 20,000 troops left, they will run in a hurry like a flock of ducks, and they will be in fear all day.

The witch leaders had already made up their minds to take the dry city, and how could they allow the remnants of the orcs to retreat smoothly. Driven by the Witch of Death, a large number of necromantic corpses swarmed in the direction of the orc's retreat, and those half-shadow creatures were even more elusive, constantly attacking the orc's defeated troops from the side.

The Plane Battlefield was 110 miles away from the Dry City.

Previously, after receiving the oracle, the orc legion discarded most of the heavy equipment and made a long-distance attack on the witch portal with light equipment. It's a pity that after eight hours of bloody fighting, it fell short in the end!

Even if the orcs are several times larger than humans, such a toss makes them tired and weak in their backs and legs, and it is almost difficult to take a step.

After a bloody battle, many orc warriors were already exhausted and collapsed on the ground, and even if the swarming necromancers dragged them into the black and crushing corpse tide, they were powerless to resist.

Defeated all the way, lost armor all the way......

The defeat of the orc legion is a miserable one, it's just miserable!

And the even worse defeat is the orc commandos who are under siege, although they are not inferior to those high-level witches in terms of rank, but in terms of real combat power, they are far from being the opponents of witches of the same level.

Annihilated nearly half of the orc powerhouses in one go, several witch leaders discussed, and the death witch leader Ksuna drove the corpse tide to continue to chase the remnants of the orcs, while the dark witch leader Sersi led the shadow legion to take a shortcut and directly attacked the dry water city.

As for the Fate Witches, who are not strong enough, they briefly cleaned the battlefield with the Winter Witches and the Pain Witches, and began to move slowly towards Dry Water City with the loot.

And the portal, after all the witch troops had been teleported, had been slowly closed.

By the time all the orcs and witches had left the gravel wilderness, all that was left was scorched bones and dark bloodstains.

…………

Dry City.

The one who remained in the city to preside over the defense was none other than Dawa, the leader of the Stonehammer tribe.

After receiving the oracle of the beast god, Dry Water City successively sent 50,000 orc elites to rush hundreds of miles in one breath to attack the portal that invaded the witch. Dawa stayed in the city, mobilizing the living forces around him while keeping a close eye on the battlefield in the distance.

At around 3 p.m., the first group of retreating orc units were spotted by a Harpy patrol that had gone out.

And in the next 2 hours, Dawa received a series of bad news that was even more terrible than the other!

The Orc Legion has been defeated by the Witch Army from across the plane!

The witch army is driving the remnants of the orcs in the direction of Dry Water City with a terrible tide of corpses.

What made Dawa even more secretly frightened was that in the other direction, the wolf cavalry patrol and the harpy sentinels sent by Dry Water City all disappeared inexplicably.

According to the orc military system, all patrols and sentinels need to communicate information to Dry Water City at certain intervals. And now, Dry Water City has lost contact with several sentinels outside the city, and not even the team sent to investigate the situation has turned around.

This...... Undoubtedly already a bad news that couldn't be worse!

It seems that the enemy wants to take advantage of the rout of the orc elite army to take Dry Water City directly, although Dawa can see this, but he is so helpless.

After all, it was all the elite troops of Dry Water that Xsadis Fangs had taken with him. Although the remaining tens of thousands of orcs are still capable of fighting, they have always lacked strict and formal military training, and they belong to the scattered rangers, and it is difficult to quickly form a group.

Sensing the severity of the situation, Stonehammer Clan Dawa could only issue the highest level of conscription, mobilizing the orcs and subordinate tribes of the entire city to fill the city head of Dry Water City.

For a moment, the majestic and towering walls of Dry Water City were crowded with people, and a group of minotaurs with blue-black horns on their heads pushed heavy war machines and transported them one by one to the towers in the middle of the city walls.

Perhaps it is because the orcs are so strong and strong that they only like to strip off their fines and play field battles with their enemies with large blades. It is precisely by virtue of this strength and bravery that the orcs have become the sole rulers of the Johnson plane.

But it is precisely because of the influence of this fighting style that they never disdain to study those war instruments and strategies and tactics.

If they have an advantage on the battlefield, it doesn't matter what they do.

But now, when the orcs have become the weaker side and need to hold on to the city, this deficiency has become extremely glaring and terrifying.

Therefore, when the remnants of the orc army of less than 20,000 retreated to the outskirts of Dry Water City, the desolation and misery shocked the hearts of all who witnessed it, and they couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

On the Loess Avenue, less than 2 miles from Dry Water City, groups of fast-moving ghouls stood out from the tide of necromantic corpses and quickly caught up with the remnants of the orcs.

The exhausted orcs had no choice but to stay put, fighting against the onslaught of the Necro Legion while desperately calling for help to the defenders of Dry Water.

Seeing this, a serious infighting immediately broke out in Dry Water City!

This group of orc remnants was originally the troops of Dry Water City, and almost every orc warrior had relatives and friends who were waiting for their return in the city at the moment. Suddenly seeing their relatives suffering outside the city and enduring the terrible attack of the dead, the defenders in the city could no longer hold back the mania in their hearts, and rushed to the city gate to open the gate to rescue their relatives.

There was a serious clash between the guards of the city gate and the emotional orcs, which also caused the military spirit of the defenders at the head of the city to start to float.

Although Dawa, the supreme commander of the defenders in the city, saw it clearly, it also understood it in his heart.

If he refuses to send troops to rescue these soldiers, then without fighting, the hearts of the people in the city will have collapsed. But if you want to send troops out to save people, those waves of necromantic corpses that are slowly advancing near the horizon are probably waiting for this moment......

Faced with a dilemma, Dawa could only sigh and order the city gates to be opened and a mixed force of 3,000 men to rescue the trapped remnants of the orcs.

And this order has undoubtedly become a rapid fall of Dry Water City*!

Sent out of the city was a mixed force, the main force of which was a 2,000-strong Minotaur force, in addition to which there were 300 wolf cavalry and 600 centaurs, and 100 harpies.

Outside the city, they are greeted by the Death Witches' elaborate army of ghouls and legions of wraiths.

As soon as the two sides engaged, the Thousand Wraith Legion swooped down from the sky, sneering as they erupted into the mixed forces.

Wraiths are special creatures formed by the combination of death resentment and void matter, most of them have no real body, and are immune to most physical damage. Their attacks have no physical effect, and only use their cold resentful cores to corrupt the souls of living beings.

Therefore, their attacks have a strong soul-devouring effect, which can effectively absorb the spiritual vitality and soul energy of the enemy!

And there are too few individuals on the orc side who have mastered and possessed elemental power, and ordinary weapons are difficult to damage the resentful spirits in the slightest. Therefore, in the dense rain of arrows of the centaurs and the spear-throwing attacks of the harpies, those translucent wraiths rushed to their sides against the opponent's attack, inserted their illusory and terrifying claws into the opponent's body, and frantically groped for something inside.

Centaurs and minotaurs attacked by the wraiths could not hurt the wraiths even if they frantically waved their stakes and spears. On the contrary, under the siege of a group of resentful clusters, one by one, their soul energy was rapidly lost, and they almost lost the ability to think and fight, and their bodies froze and fell to the ground.

With the intrusion of the wraiths, this mixed orc army was instantly chaotic.

So at this time, the ghoul troops that followed immediately behind rushed from all directions.

The blood-red minotaur warriors roared angrily, slamming the ground with their thick hooves, and the 3-meter wooden pillars with the thickness of an adult's waist in their hands were waving tigers and tigers, smashing the ghouls that rushed into a pile of blood.

However, the ghouls were clearly not afraid of death.

Although they are far inferior to the Minotaur warriors in terms of strength and physique, they are far faster than their opponents.

Ghouls scurryed high and low, weaving from one whizzing pillar to the next, punctuating at a minotaur warrior with a claw or tongue arrows ricocheting from their ugly mouths, stabbing bloody holes in their fleshy bodies.

Ghouls' minions and saliva are covered with terrible toxins, and even if the minotaurs are still brave after being attacked by them, their physical strength and strength will inevitably fail.
