Chapter 152: Breakthrough

The vanguard soon reached the redstone tablet, and several powerful sappers dug it out as fast as they could, and Archmage Angela immediately packed it into a giant space bag of traits.

In front of an army with a total strength of more than six hundred, no spider dared to stand up to stop it, and the connection between the hearts let Unas know that the two Overlord Spiders and their controllers had been ordered to take position in front of them, he raised his hand and waved it down vigorously, and shouted: "Full speed ahead!" ”

The whole army marched forward in a cone formation, the captives were unmounted, and Unas held down the speed of his horse to keep the cavalry in line with them.

In less than half an hour, the team stood on the predetermined high ground five kilometers away, and did not encounter any resistance on the way, and the deterrent effect of the overlord spider was indeed outstanding.

In fact, three kilometres further on, there is a narrower terrain that is easier to defend, and there is an alternative place to push forward after winning, and now that it is so easy to reach the primary objective, the second objective should be fine.

"Keep going!" Unas commanded in a loud voice.

No one wanted their heads to be strung on spears, no one dared to question the new order, and the team that had just stopped set off again, and Angela on her side asked in a low voice, "What's the matter, this is different from the predetermined plan?" ”

"The form of the battlefield is changing rapidly, and it can't go exactly as planned, and there is a better defensive spot not far ahead," Unas comforted, "Don't worry, I won't take everyone's lives for granted." ”

The woods became denser, and the cone formation had to turn into a long snake formation, and at this time, if a few giant spiders rushed out of the forest, it was likely that the entire team would be cut into several sections, but in fact, nothing happened, and all the members arrived at the alternative location one by one, which was of course also the credit of the overlord spider escort.

The terrain is higher, only 60 meters wide at its narrowest point, and the steep cliffs on both sides make it an excellent defensive position.

The sappers hurriedly dug a pit to re-erect the red stone monument, and all trees in the field of vision were cut down under the orders of Unas, but fortunately the druids did not come, otherwise they would have intervened to obstruct them.

In the process of cutting down trees, several spiders hiding in the forest were snooped away, and it seemed that the spiders had begun to assemble, but what they didn't know was that they would be led by a leader controlled by the enemy.

Preparing for the work, the troops formed an iron bucket formation, Unas nodded to Angela, the archmage raised his staff, and white freezing air swayed out, gradually forming a thick ice wall three meters high in the narrowest pass, countless sharp spikes extended from the wall, and the entire ice wall was like a hideous caterpillar.

There was no water here, and it was already Angela's limit to conjure such a large ice wall out of thin air, and on top of that, the vast expanse of land outside the ice wall was covered with a layer of smooth ice, and the spiders must be very unaccustomed to walking on such a surface.

Unas was supposed to face enemies in both directions, and this wall of ice and the Overlord Spider could greatly delay the spiders outside the New Frontier Monument, allowing him to use most of his forces and the rear army that should have been dispatched to flank the enemy within the eight-kilometer radius.

Angela had spent most of her mana, and Erigor had begun to persuade her to teleport away sooner, but the archmage insisted on a look, and Unas nodded gratefully to her.

The sentry climbing on the top of the flagpole sent a signal of the enemy's attack, Unas ordered Liante's hundred-man team and the Brotherhood of Light to defend the direction of the ice wall together, and he dismounted alone to the front of the team, squeezed away the two orc warriors beside him, took out a huge siege shield specially prepared from his bag and slammed it on the ground, the shadow of a giant spider was already shaking at the end of his vision, and he shouted: "Fight to the death and not retreat!" ”

The battle cries of various kinds responded to the orders of the garrison, and these bloodthirsty beasts could no longer contain the desire to kill, and almost took the initiative to charge forward.

Unas managed to stabilize the line, and it was not a good idea to hedge against the giant spiders, they just had to hold this place and wait for the rear army to come and rendezvous.

The giant spiders were getting closer and closer, and there were only about thirty of them, and Unas raised a hand to make a shooting gesture, "Ready!" ”

Wooden spears and spears were raised, and the alien captives were not good at bows and arrows, but they all had a lot of strength, so throwing weapons became their first choice, and ogres were good at throwing stones, so they were all piled up with stones the size of human heads.

"Put!" Unas roared and fired two shots at the same time, firing the prelude to the attack.

The sound of swishing continued to pass overhead, and the arrows and rocks covered the spiders in three consecutive rounds, each of which was almost colored, but also rushed close enough that their counterattack was even more violent.

The venom fell like a torrential rain, the stinger shot like a bullet, the pungent smell poured into the nostrils, and from time to time people who did not have time to raise their shields were hit by the venom or the stinger, and the unlucky ones were poisoned on the spot.

Unas's wooden shield was baptized by venom first, and then blocked more than a dozen stingers, which were already partially cracked, and a blade-like long foot directly shattered it, stabbing at the chest of the garrison, Unas instantly gave way sideways, and an orc behind him was unlucky, and the simple leather armor on his body could not block this blow at all, and the whole person was pierced through the chest by the knife.

Unas grabbed his left arm violently, clamped the knife foot under his armpit, and the fire kiss of his left hand slashed at its joints with all his might, this knife spider did not have the strong armor of the overlord spider, and its long foot was cut in two with a click.

Throwing away the severed foot of his left hand and the broken handle of his shield, Unas sliced out the silver hammer, and the sword hammer struck at the head of the spider at the same time, but both were blocked by the spider's forefoot.

At this moment, an orc warrior beside him actually smashed open the other blade foot of the giant spider with an axe, and then jumped on the back of the giant spider with great effort, making a large hole in the back of its neck.

The blade spider hissed in pain, its body shook violently, and Unas took advantage of the momentum to stab its mouth into the brain with a sword, completely eliminating the enemy.

There are also three points of light floating in various places, indicating that the three enemies who rushed up first have been solved in other places, Unas has to look around, although there are some casualties, but the defenses everywhere are still holding up, only the gnolls are retreating, and they are about to be broken through.

Waste is waste! Unas cursed and shouted to the orc warrior, "What's your name?" ”

"Cruz-Fireblade." The orc warrior subconsciously answered the master's question.

"You've done a good job, Cruz," Unas complimented him, "follow me!" ”

Without waiting for him to respond, Unas pounced directly in the direction of the gnolls, where a giant brown spider covered in barbs was wantonly killing the feared waste, and it must not be allowed to open the breakthrough. (To be continued.) )
