Three days later.

The southeast of Maple Town's Monster Defense Line.

The sky was like a freshly dissolved blue on a palette, and the morning breeze blew with a chill;

Sharp Sword tightened his neckline and looked at the already refreshed defense line in front of him:

The earthen walls closer to the forest have been demolished and replaced by "rejecting horses" that look like fish skeletons from a distance;

They are arranged in a regular manner in the shape of a funnel with openings facing the forest, and the scale of this funnel is quite exaggerated, the entrance is large enough to encompass the entire southeast side of the forest, and the exit is excessively narrow and relatively elongated;

The bottom of each "rejection" is buried deep in the soil - so that it is difficult to move away from the impact;

At the same time, the end of each log facing the forest was sharpened, and they looked like large spears too thick for ordinary people to use—it was easy to make them so, and the soldiers could sharpen them with their swords.

Not only was the processing simple, but the whole process was not much trouble, it was not difficult to tie the wood with hemp rope and fix it, and the soldiers quickly got started, and the raw materials were easy to find—not far from the forest;

There is no need to use a trunk, and some of the thicker branches are enough to make such fortifications.

"Is this really okay?" said Sharp Sword to the pine beside him, "It's scary to look at, but it's wood after all......"

"Trust Lord Fang Dun's judgment, trust Lord Add, this is the only thing we can do at the moment. "Cangsong doesn't have much confidence either, but, as the commander of the defensive side of the monster, he must have a resolute demeanor to boost morale.

There were about 100 people active in the area of the defensive line, and these people were sparse compared to the defensive line.

Half of them were hired adventurers, and each of them looked ghostly due to the letters that Baron Greywolf had disseminated before, so that Grey Song could not be reassured - would they turn around and run away once the battle situation showed signs of decline?

The soldiers also looked a little listless, after all, these days were really tiring - Eddie told them to hurry up and get to work;

When the hunter was caught, it was impossible for Baron Greywolf not to know about it, and if he knew, he would certainly hasten his actions, and the two sides were in a race against time.

"Your Excellency. A soldier walked quickly towards Cangsong, but his expression was gloomy: "The magic core has been counted, the magic core of the black iron rank is two hundred and four, and the magic core of the bronze rank is thirty-two. ”

The wrinkles on Cangsong's forehead became even denser: he knew very well that it would take five black iron or one bronze-rank magic core to be able to trigger a directional artillery attack of the magic array;

Judging from the scale of the last Warcraft, it would take at least two hundred shellings - and this is still at the cost of a certain number of casualties - to be able to repel the tide of Warcraft;

But the number of cores now is only enough for seventy shells.

Even more worryingly, according to the reports of spies who infiltrated the forest, the activity of the Dark Cloud Pony in the suburbs is extremely high, and it is expected to be at least twice as large as the previous attack;

As long as someone scatters some hard shell fruit and lures the leaders of those dark cloud horses, the beast tide will come - due to lack of intelligence and limited combat power, Baron Fang Dun cannot send people into the forest to deal with the leader.

There weren't enough cores, not enough people, just the strange fortifications laid by the strange young man and a strategy that seemed good but might have been completely unremarkable;

Perhaps, my life is about to come to an end.

"I ...... I don't want to die......" Not far away, a young soldier held a spear in his hand and muttered alone in a crying voice: "Daddy, if I die here, you must take good care of your brother......

Cangsong glanced at him, and then looked to the other side—over there, the three brothers of a family had all joined the baron's ranks in order to earn a little more money......

Alas, don't think about it, if you let the monster into the town, I don't know how many people will die...... Cangsong sighed and continued to look at the situation on the other side of the forest;

The sun rose in the east, and in the light of the dawn, the pine saw that there seemed to be some movement in the distant forest;

Along with that strange movement, there was the unsettling sound of the neighing of horses—

"The beast tide is coming——! Cang Song took a deep breath and roared in the loudest voice, "All the staff - the combat position is ready——!

Those who were still busy in the front line threw down their work and clenched their weapons back to the inside of the line;

The general structure of the defensive line has been completed, and this is just tinkering, and it is dispensable in terms of life.

The soldiers were concentrated in the middle of the line, facing the thin end exit of the funnel;

There are three magic arrays, and in this battle, they are the only ones who are the main force, and the adventurers are scattered on the sides in order to kill the fish that slipped through the net.

As the beast tide approached, in addition to the sound of hissing, the sound of branches and leaves shaking also began to reach the ears;

The approaching sound seemed to tug at the heartstrings of everyone present.

"It's coming——!" the shout of a sharp-eyed soldier kicked off the battle;

A blue-purple dark cloud pony emerges from the forest and gallops wildly towards the front!

Then, the other Darkcloud Ponies began to emerge from the forest one after another, and they were so fast that in the blink of an eye, they had crossed a distance of fifty meters to the front of the line!

Sharp Sword's scalp tingled at the sight, and his hands trembled uncontrollably—what kind of amount was this? There had never been such a dense attack before!

Cang Song, who was in charge of the command, also gasped: Can a charge of this scale really be stopped?

The vanguard had reached the front of the rejection, and some of the beasts were clearly red-eyed, and even in the face of such a never-before-seen "wall", they still ran into it without fear!

Then came a scream drowned out by the sound of horses' hooves, and a bright red liquid burst from their necks, staining the wooden horses red—

This scene caught Pine's attention, and he remembered that Master Eddie had explained the characteristics to them before:

The core function of "Horse Reject" is to deter horses that are sprinting at high speeds!

Once they hit the point, it's like a galloping spearman stabbing a giant spear into the neck of a horse that is still in place, leaving them with nothing but death!

But, is this really enough? Cang Song still didn't dare to relax.

It is true that there are beasts who lack the eyes of the heart and go straight to the rejection horse, but that is only a minority, and more of the Dark Cloud Pony have noticed the "exit" of the defense line - the narrower end of the funnel, at least it seems to be lacking in shelter!

The already slightly dense group of dark cloud foals gathered further at this moment, galloping towards the end of the defense line like a blue-black river;

This is exactly in line with Eddie's plan: under the deterrence of the rejection horse, the originally relatively loose array will become dense!

And at this moment, it's the perfect time to attack!

Cang Song roared as hard as he could—

"The magic array is in place! Don't let those magical beasts rush over——!"
