Chapter 151: The Horn of the Cursed Lands
In the bedroom of Lordaeron, the former palace, Valera hugged Ares's neck, her small mouth kept coming up and asking for kisses, unable to resist the temptation of the elven thief, and Ares responded to her softly. The moonlight entered the bedroom, elongating the figures of the two people, and gradually, there was a burst of ecstatic gasps in the room...... No one knew exactly what was going on in this room, except that the next morning, Ares could be seen going out with a slender elven woman behind him......
……
Fort Watch, northeast end of the Cursed Lands.
"Brothers, aim for their necks and wrists!"
Elven Commander Sathranan commanded in a loud voice. At this moment, outside this castle, there are a large number of evil orcs and demon vanguard troops. Since the day the castle was founded, this castle in the desert has had only one role, which is to oversee the movement of the Dark Gate, and now, they have ushered in their most difficult mission. Two months ago, a demonic vanguard passed through this massive interstellar portal, and since then, a steady stream of demonic armies and bloodthirsty orcs have fought through the dark gate, and although the warriors of the alliance have held off the demonic attacks time and time again, it now seems that the situation has almost gotten out of control. Although word has reached Stormwind, Varian seems to be busy with the rebuilding of Stormwind. Only half a corps of troops was sent to support.
The number of demons and orcs is far greater than the strength of the Watchtower.
They were tirelessly attacking the fortress, corpses already piled up in the trenches beneath the walls, and if it weren't for the fortification of the castle, it would have fallen a few weeks ago.
The elven commander Sathranan shouted the order to attack, but the first wave of the archers' attack was like a pebble falling into the sea, and no more damage could be inflicted on the demon army except to shoot a dozen demon guards and hundreds of orcs. These devils in heavy armor are several times more powerful than humans, and even elves can't fight them alone.
Beneath the city wall, three arrows hit the body of a demon guard, however, because they did not hit the fatal part, the demon guard only paused for a few seconds, and then angrily pulled out the cluster of arrows from his body, roared and charged again.
Several dwarven musketeers cut off their targets and took aim at the demon who was climbing the walls, until the sniper shot the demon in the neck, which was not wrapped in armor, and the demon defender fell from the pile of corpses and tumbled to the crimson ground.
Gradually, the demon's vanguard troops, the evil orcs, rushed forward. With the most primitive siege weapons, they destroyed the walls and gates of the watchtower. Meteorite-like shells erupted from the orc catapults, whistling and smashing into the towers. From time to time, several human guards and elven archers were hit, blood splattered on the spot, and they fell from the city walls.
Under the attack of red-skinned orcs, the outer walls of the Watch Fortress crumbled. When the first gap was opened, an army of mad and bloodthirsty orcs rushed up like the sea. The Commander of the Demon Vanguard also sent the Hellhounds to storm the Alliance's defenses with the berserk orcs.
"Steady! Hold the line! ”
Elven Commander Sathranan shouted, and the sky grew dark. The archmage was casting a spell, and under the influence of magic, thick dark clouds gradually obscured the sky and obscured the rays of the sun. On the ground, the armies of orcs and demons were still roaring and charging, and the earth was still trembling. Soon, a ghost-green meteorite fell from the sky, tearing through the dense dark clouds and smashing straight into the crowd on the ground. At least hundreds of evil orc warriors and more than thirty hellhounds were blown away the moment the meteorite landed, and the flesh and blood scattered blurred, and the shock wave formed by the meteorite bombardment raised billowing dust, instantly obscuring the route of the orcs and hellhounds.
In the next second, countless arrows and bullets shot from behind the dust mist, shooting at the army of orcs who were charging furiously.
Soon, however, the enemy squeezed into the gap in the walls.
Hand-to-hand combat is a bloody battle here, and the alliance of elves and humans constantly resists the onslaught of demons, but in melee combat, the alliance is still no match for orcs and demons. A demon guardian even cut off the heads of five human warriors with a single scythe! Blood spurted out, and fear spread through the crowd.
Hellhounds and red-skinned evil orcs pounced in a frenzy, and the demon dogs tore off entire thighs of human and elven soldiers, and then, like wild beasts, left them aside, continuing to bite the warriors' bodies with their scarlet blood.
In the fiercest place of the fierce fighting, Sathranan had to draw his elven sword and fight the demon in melee combat.
One of the human infantrymen beside him was knocked down by the orc warrior and almost fainted, while the orc just twisted his neck, picked up the axe, and split the helmet of the human infantryman...... That power is obviously not possessed by normal orcs...... Sasranan immediately knew that these orcs had drunk the blood of demons just like those orcs twenty years ago!
He stabbed the orc in the abdomen with his enchanted longsword, and the orc, seemingly undaunted by pain, continued to swing his battle axe at the elven commander's head. Sasranan dodged, then used his staff to smash the orc warrior's head. It wasn't until the orc warrior fell that he had a chance to pull out the long sword that was stuck in the orc warrior's body.
Not to mention the other elves and human infantry, they fought and retreated, and the originally narrow gap was gradually squeezed open by orcs and demons, turning into a huge gap. Lots of demons and orcs crowded here.
"Pour oil!"
Sasranan shouted, and the soldiers on the walls hurried to pour buckets of black fuel on the orcs and demons entering the city.
Several hellhounds have already climbed the tower, and they must hold on.
A few minutes later, Archmage Sasranan withdrew from the front line and, under the protection of the guards, chanted the incantation of the Flame Storm.
The warriors on the city walls, led by the great general Lo Dunsen, continued to resist the demonic invasion, and soon the sky began to rain fire. When the flames met the fuel, they quickly ignited blue flames, and the entire area of orc warriors and demon guards screamed and squeezed each other and stamped on each other. The scene was a mess.
The gap in the wall was so narrow that the crowd couldn't escape for a short time, and the taller and stronger demon guards directly knocked over the orcs, crushing them and stepping on them. These orcs were originally their slaves......
The smell of burnt flesh and bones was in the air, and the battle continued from morning to night, and finally the soldiers of the Overwatch fought to hold the castle. However, they didn't know how many demons and bloodthirsty orcs would await them tomorrow after tonight...... The builders had blocked the gap all night, and the dark door was in the distance, like the eyes of the devil gazing over the cursed land......
