Of course, Halfface can also choose the third way: immediately make peace with Tobiang, and turn against the Blackstone Orcs.

But now that the two sides have torn their faces, it is difficult to trust each other anymore, and even if they want to make peace, the side that speaks first will definitely be at an extreme disadvantage and will not be able to talk about any good conditions, which he does not want to see.

Then you can only attack with all your strength, and if you capture it, you will naturally be the biggest winner, and if you can't attack, it will also cause huge pressure on Tobiang, so that he has to take the initiative to beg for peace, and then he can put forward favorable conditions.

The strategy in the heart of the half-face has been decided, and there is no wavering, and he immediately stepped up the battle, drove the coerced temporary war group into the cave and pressed forward, and pushed the stormtroopers in front of him forward.

This kind of quick success will cause greater casualties on his side, but as long as he can achieve his goal, he doesn't care, these subordinates are just numbers in his heart, and he can recruit them again if he has no more.

The frequency of the small light spots floating over has become higher in vain, and Unas's experience has exceeded 30%, so if you continue to mix it for another hour or two, you may be able to upgrade.

But apparently not so lucky, and after a while, the speed of entering the cave began to increase, which showed that the enemy was constantly retreating, and the half-faced tactics of ignoring casualties were really effective.

"The enemy has retreated!" The latest battle report from the front was transmitted, and he shouted "yes" with half a face, and then ordered the troops to move forward at full speed.

The soldiers rushed in, and Unas asked the three people around him to protect him and wanted to merge into the flow of people, but he was stopped by half of his face: "Unas, you are seriously injured, don't you go to rest in the back?" ”

"A little injury is nothing, if the situation is critical, I can continue to fight." Unas pretended to be in great pain.

Half Face didn't believe that he was so loyal, and his thoughts changed: "Good! Maybe I'll really need to get your place, so keep up. ”

I'll just tell you a scene, this bastard won't take it seriously, right? Unas scolded in his heart, there is no reason to use wounded soldiers when there are so many fresh troops.

But this is also self-inflicted, who made him want to mix with experience?

Unas wants to increase his experience to 80% to 90% and then go back, so that he may quickly escalate during the subsequent escape operation and quickly regain his full combat strength, so he can only continue to keep up for this purpose.

As soon as Tobiang's army retreated, three large mines were retreated, and behind the corridor in front of him was the outer assembly room of the arsenal, and an oval, thick iron door appeared in front of everyone's eyes again.

The old way, the thick stone pillar made of hard volcanic rock was carried by the ogre and slammed the door, and the iron door was quickly smashed open, this time there was not even a stone wall, and there was not half of the enemy in sight.

Tobiang actually gave up here, half of his intuition was wrong, and sent a small team of scouts to investigate, but the information reported was safe.

The core of the arsenal is the furnace room built on the lava pool, which is the only place underground where ore can be turned into metal, and the other workshops are built around it, with the casting room for the inverted iron to make weapon embryos, the processing room for grinding the edges, and finally the assembly room with handle parts.

Half-face came here cautiously with the troops, and the number "3" at the entrance of the cave indicated that this was the third assembly room, and all kinds of half-finished weapons were scattered on the workbench and the ground, and it seemed that the people here were walking in a hurry.

There are openings in the front, left, and right directions, all of which are sealed off by iron doors, and the floor of the hall is full of messy footsteps, making it impossible to tell where the enemy's main force is retreating, according to the map, walking on the left is another workshop, walking on the right leads to the armory, and the front leads to the furnace.

Tobion will eventually retreat to the most important forg, but it would be dangerous if he hid a surprise army behind one of the gates and suddenly rushed out to attack while we were advancing.

Halfface had to order the siege team to smash all the iron gates open, which took a lot of time, and after investigating all three directions, he found no enemy, but met a small team of Blackstone orcs who were searching for half-finished weapons in the workshop on the left.

Half Face and their small leader learned through the information that Blackstone's main force was in a processing room not far from here, and that the Blackstone Clan's fate was similar to his, and the enemy immediately retreated after the initial fierce resistance, allowing the orcs to quickly attack the arsenal.

Tobion gave up so many defensive advantages and kept shrinking, not knowing whether it was a suspicious strategy or a real counterattack strategy, which successfully made Blacktooth suspicious, and the orcs slowed down their progress and sent their men to scatter to the left and right, grabbing some loot first.

Halfface asks the little leader to bring a message to Blackfang, first accusing the other party of the previous breach of contract, and then urging Blacktooth to attack quickly, and put pressure on the enemy together to prevent Tobion from getting a respite.

I don't know if the message is effective, I gave up the armory with half a face, and made up my mind to move on, now it is more important to grasp the situation than to grab a few weapons.

After passing through three more workshops, the speed of progress suddenly slowed down, and a new situation came back: magma appeared.

Half Face hurried to the front of the team, only to see a shallow layer of magma accumulated on the ground of the foundry room in front of him, only as deep as his feet, and the iron door of the hole opposite was wide open, and golden-red liquid was constantly flowing out of it.

Is this Tobiang's secret weapon? With a solemn expression on his half face, he ordered loudly: "The engineering team will immediately take stones on the spot, and if the enemy wants to stop us with a river, we will build a bridge!" ”

The sappers began to dig the stones in ping-pong, while the others turned back to move the stone platform and the like from the previous workshop, and threw them into the magma to pave the way, and the shallow layer of liquid immediately paved a path, which could not stop the progress of the crowd at all.

But the magma in the next room was even deeper, reaching the thighs of ordinary people, and Tobiong didn't know how to use all the magma out as a moat between the furnaces, the magma pool was originally the lowest, and he must have used some method to transport the magma up.

This move is really powerful, it is conceivable that the rest of the road will be covered by deeper and deeper magma, and the speed of paving the road cannot keep up at all, and Banyan has to order the whole army to stop advancing.

The flow of the underground magma pool cannot be unlimited, the new gushing will always not keep up with the consumption, and the magma will gradually solidify after hypothermia, so waiting is not a solution, but the time is uncertain, and it is possible for a few hours to a few days.

Halfface had to wait, while sending a henchman to lead people to the armory to sweep, but he didn't expect that Lincoln had already taken the lead, and the ogre had the least effort, but the harvest was the greatest, not only looting Tobiang's granary, but also getting all the weapons left in the armory.

The bad news brought back by his subordinates made the deep face of the city government thunder, and he cursed the damned ogre loudly, making the innocent Isaac and the others tremble for fear of being angered.

Time passed in anxious waiting, the lava flow showed no sign of abating, and the stone laid by the sappers gradually submerged, and the team had to retreat.

After a long time, Tobiang's messenger appeared with a small iron boat that he knew was a makeshift patchwork, and the wording was very strong: withdraw immediately, and treat it as if it had never happened, or else the attackers would be wiped out.

Half of his face laughed angrily, he was still engaged in alarmist intimidation at this time, Tobiang retreated in a hurry, there must not be enough food, and he could be trapped to death if he didn't move like this.

Blacktooth and Lincoln were also threatened by Tobion's emissary, but they ignored it, and the irascible orc ignored the unspoken rule of not killing the emissary and threw the arrogant creature directly into the lava.

The three parties contacted a little to reach a consensus, and jointly besieged to see if the other party could hold out for a few days.

The day passed like this, and the next day the magma flow still showed no signs of stopping, so it was also spent in peace, Unas's shoulder injury had improved greatly, and the stalemate in the battle was good news for him, but he was a little depressed because of his inexperience.

On the third day, Lincoln directly evacuated half of the ogre, giving the excuse that the ogre had a big appetite and would not be able to get enough food for the next week if he didn't go back to mining.

This reason made Halfface and Black Tooth scoff, Tobiang's inventory was enough for all the ogres to eat nothing for a while, they all thought that Lincoln had enough to save his strength, only Unas knew that the day of release would come at any time, and Lincoln was making preliminary preparations.

The flow of magma finally slowed down, the "water level" began to fall, and the "water surface" also condensed like jelly, and the engineering team was not idle these days, making a lot of stone slabs that could float on the magma, except for ogres, other races could stand on the stone slabs without sinking, and half of his face was ready for a surprise attack, he couldn't wait any longer.

The Blackstone clan did not have such skilled craftsmen, and half-faced promised that if they couldn't attack it, they would lend it to the orcs, also for fear that they would pull back.

The Ogre-slaying stormtroopers carried long stone slabs on their backs, paving the pontoon bridge as they went, the lava almost standing still, and the paving work went smoothly through the two workshops until they reached the room above the furnace.

I saw that on a high platform in the center of the room, several figure-7 metal giant pipes hugged by one person were slowly spitting out red liquid, and there was not much left of the flow rate, and the rumbling sound came from the ground, and there must be something similar to a pumping machine below that sucked the magma up, which was the culprit who made the battle stalemate for two days.

There was no guard here, everyone laid the board all the way to the high platform, there was a wide well in the center of the high platform, the downward passage was squeezed by several giant pipes and only one person was left next to the well ladder to pass through the gap, there was a meritorious dwarf just wanted to go down, but accidentally rubbed the pipe, was hot and shivered, and quickly jumped out.

"Don't go down, try to see if you can get the pipe off first." Someone suggested.

The temperature of the metal giant pipe was amazingly high, and the originally hard and abnormally hard material also became soft, and the soldiers used the blunt instruments in their hands to beat with all their might, and soon the nozzle was smashed flat, and the magma could no longer come out, and the noise of the enemy's drumming was heard below, but no one attacked along the well ladder.

The stone slabs gradually covered the whole hall, and half of his face reached the mouth of the well of the central platform, and after seeing the situation clearly, he laughed and said: "The end of Tobiang has come, smash all these huge pipes with a long-handled war hammer, clear the passage, and our victory is imminent!" ”

The sound of crackling immediately began to echo in the room, and the soldiers obeyed the order, took the giant hammer, held the ladder, and smashed the pipe to open the way down.

The enemy below finally began to counterattack, all kinds of weapons flew up, the soldiers who smashed the pipe were stabbed down one by one, and the passage was also blocked by their corpses, but it was just enough for the people behind to get cover.

After paying more than 30 lives, all the huge pipes in the passage were smashed flat, and the downward passage was finally pierced, and several large buckets of water that had been prepared were poured down to cool the pipes (which should now be called double iron sheets), and then several ropes hung down, and the soldiers slid down wave after wave, and half of their faces finally attacked the furnace.

The cavern beneath the passage is a hall almost the size of a football field, and large and small furnaces are set up around the magma pool at the end of the hall, but they have all stopped working, after all, the high temperature of smelting ore depends on magma.

There were several huge machines that looked like they had been put together on the edge of the magma pool, and several large pipes were attached to them, and each machine had another pipe inserted into the magma pool, which was close to drying up at this point, and these must be the machines that could pump the lava.

More than 400 Tobiang's soldiers were surrounding the hole overhead, stabbing the captured enemy to death with spears, but the opponent was endless, especially after the dwarf with half of his face was down, and the battle gradually moved in an unfavorable direction.

The last battle was finally half faced, his weapons were two short axes, dancing like two black clouds of smoke in his hands, and the enemies he encountered were either killed or wounded, opening up a big situation at once.

But as soon as he saw that the number of enemies was not right, and Tobion was nowhere to be found, he had never been here, could there be any other room?

It's useless to think about it so much, occupying the furnace is just around the corner, now there is only fighting, and the henchmen who follow him are also elite, and they quickly stabilize their positions, and more and more of their subordinates jump down from above unharmed, and the advantage is constantly expanding.

Of course, the injured Unas didn't have to work hard, he didn't follow, but mixed experience in the upper room with peace of mind, and the speed of rising at this time was faster than the day before yesterday, and the small light points hit in waves, and the experience finally slowed down after breaking through 70%.

In other words, there were about a hundred or so enemies killed below, and the half-faced attack was really extraordinary, and the enemy was destroyed so quickly.

But the mood of Half Face at this time did not have the joy of victory, although the enemy surrendered, but the whole hall was searched and there was no secret passage or anything like that, and the torture did not get any useful information, these people only knew that Tobiang had ordered them to stay here, and they did not know where their boss was.

He hurriedly climbed up the well ladder and warned his subordinates not to take it lightly, Tobiang should still have about a thousand troops, so many people will not disappear without a trace, and there will definitely be traces, so start searching, with the furnace as the center, it must be in a secret passage somewhere.
