The cold air was filled with the smell of blood.

Even a gnoll leader comparable to a Grand Knight doesn't have much to do in the face of a terrifying war machine like a heavy ballista.

If placed in a wide area, the gnoll leader can still have room to dodge and hide, but on the battlefield, especially with a salvo of one hundred and ten heavy ballistas.

The only thing that awaits them is death.

Two rounds of shooting in a row, emptying part of the wave, and the blood of the big handful was dripping like a torrential rain.

However, the continuous surge of gnolls marched towards the nearby city wall, and the previously cleaned area was instantly remedied.

The snowy plains are full of crazy gnolls.

The lethality of the heavy ballista on the high platform of the city wall is still there, but it can't stop the next attack of the gnolls, so they can only clean the gnolls as much as possible and delay the offensive.

Click! Click! Click! Click!

In the corners of the city wall strewn with corpses, the gnolls stopped to look at the towering and smooth wall, pulled out the hook at their waists, riveted all their strength, and threw it at the battlement.

Once the hook was fixed to the wall, the gnolls clung to the rope and quickly climbed upward.

These are not ordinary hooks and locks, they are carefully forged by the lizardmen tribe, and they cannot be slashed by ordinary swords, and are often used to attack human cities.

Without waiting for the order to be issued in the temporary war room of the Nuu Fortress, the Kingdom Infantry Legion who had laid a defensive line on the city wall immediately reacted, they had experienced too many such attacks, and the corpses in the corner of the wall were the best proof of this.

Sharp gravel, barbed stakes, boiling oil.

Anything that can cause lethality to the gnolls soldiers, all of them are used at this moment and poured down on the gnolls who climbed the city walls.

A terrible howl of pain resounded through the walls, occasionally mixed with the smell of roasted rot, but that didn't stop the gnolls from falling into the slaughter.

It was also officially from this moment that the war entered a white-hot state.

The smooth walls and muddy soil were gradually stained reddish-brown with blood, and as soon as the scattered snowflakes fell into the battlefield, they melted into water, mixed with pools of blood, and flowed down the corpses.

......

......

A cyan hurricane blew and a dense rain of arrows.

Duke Dakama looked at the increasingly bloody battlefield, his old face was slightly relaxed, the appearance of the lizardman priest did bring him some surprise, this group of spellcasters perfectly blocked the attack of the archers, but in the following battle, the kingdom of Beshilik did not seem to take out anything else.

This should have been something to be happy about, even if there were countless Kingdom soldiers fighting on the walls and giving their young lives.

It's just that he doesn't know why, but his heart is full of uneasiness, as if something terrible is brewing.

"Command the War Mage Corps, ready for battle at any time." Duke Dacama continued to repeat the previous order, and then he turned to look at the Marquis Gardner and whispered.

"I'm a little uneasy about arranging for the Royal Guards to reach the city wall."

Marquis Gardner looked at Dacama's eyes, his heart sank, and he nodded slightly, the Royal Capital Guards Legion he brought was selected from the elite, and its strength was very good.

"The Flame Knights?"

"Didn't you say you were hoping for a miracle?" Until this time, the Duke of Dacama was still in the mood to joke. "Then wait for the moment when a miracle strikes."

"Damn, the lizardmen and brutes used the ladder and ....."

"Samuel Anya Crimson Pyramid!"

A cacophony suddenly sounded in the makeshift war room, interrupting the conversation between the Duke of Dacama and the Duke Gardner, and when they heard the exclamation, they looked at the snow battlefield with shocked expressions.

Tall ladders followed the wave of gnolls towards the fortress, backed by strong lizardmen.

If it was just a rough ladder, it wouldn't be able to arouse the horror of Duke Dacama and the others, after all, with human craftsmanship, such a war weapon could be easily made, and there was also a way to destroy it.

What really caught their attention was the crimson pyramid suspended in mid-air!

There are not many of them, only three.

A touch of brilliant red light illuminated the dusk night, and faintly the lizardman priest legion standing inside the tower could be seen, and the incomparably powerful energy fluctuations it emitted were active in the ice and snow.

"Do they really want to take the fortress of Nuu tonight?" Sudden horrified thoughts appeared in the Duke of Dakama's heart, especially when his vision changed again, and his old face was full of weakness.

......

......

The brutal gnolls are order-breakers, lacking a civilized heritage and unable to make utensils and crafts.

In contrast, the lizardfolk rarely communicate with the outside world, but they have their own civilization heritage, their own power system, and the protection of the gods.

Similar morality, a desire to kill, and a dragon-language culture are the reason why the Lizardmen are able to drive the gnolls to become their vassals.

The Crimson Pyramid of Samuel Anya is one of the most famous war instruments of the Besilik Kingdom.

[Samuel Anya's Crimson Pyramid: A tower built by the lizardmen priests, a terrifying war machine named after the lizardman god Samuel Anya, with a beam of blood that annihilates everything.] (Note: This is rumored to be a war weapon born from the Human-Simulated Mage Tower.) ）】

"Tiktato, arrange for the Pterodactyl Knights to assist the troops in attacking the Nuu Fortress."

Lizardman array, Han Sen floated in the air, looking at the fierce battlefield not far away, and said with an indifferent expression.

Now that the Cloud Ladder and the Crimson Pyramid of Samuel Anya have been arranged to attack, there must be a team in the sky to cooperate as well.

As for Tiktato, he is a slender lizardman and the best pterosaur knight in the kingdom of Besilik today, who likes to patrol the skies on ferocious pterosaurs, leading his men through the narrowest and steepest valleys, appearing from unexpected directions and launching deadly attacks.

"Yes!" Behind Hansen, Tiktato, clad in armor, quickly soared into the air, undisguised as legendary.

In the dark and gloomy sky, a whistling sound suddenly sounded, and a famous pterosaur knight was assembled, his wide wings spreading, casting a large shadow.

Seeing the Pterodactyl Knights disappear into the clouds, Hansen's brow was still worried, as the deputy head of the expeditionary legion, it was in full charge of military command.

Recalling the elite human soldiers it had encountered at the edge of Senzhong Province earlier, it looked into the empty space on its side, "Have you found any traces of the Valoran Territory?" ”

The light was distorted, the snow was blurred, and the figure of a lizard man in chain mail appeared: "The military movements of the Valoran Territory have been discovered, but the exact whereabouts cannot be determined. ”

"All the lizardman scouts and gnolls that are arranged to go out will be devastated for no reason, and they will not be able to get close to each other at all."

With a furrowed brow, Hansen looked back in the northwest direction, his heart becoming more and more urgent.

"Pass my orders, arrange for the ballista triceratops to join the battle, and arrange for the cold lizard spear-wielding knight to be on standby at any time."

"Also, inform Lord Yves that I need the Stigmata Veterans to cooperate with the Crimson Lizardmen Legion to keep an eye on the surroundings."
