The fall of Hammondale Castle does not mean that the battle is over.

Polly and the others, who hurriedly retreated from the passage, immediately began their escape journey after meeting up with the group of big-eared monsters waiting in the open space outside.

At this moment, the group was almost completely incapacitated.

The captain of the half-elf guard was injured in many places, and at this time he could not even stand alone, let alone go into battle to kill the enemy;

The female magician had been hit hard in the abdomen, and had not completely recovered until this moment, judging from the fact that there was not a trace of blood from the corner of her mouth, it was very likely that she had suffered internal injuries - the magicians were generally weak, and due to the long period of meditation, their bodies were seriously lacking in the necessary exercises;

Polly and Robert were also injured, although they were not serious, but their strengths were not facing each other head-on, and their combat effectiveness was not high, so even if they were not injured, they would not play much role;

Orison and the group of big-eared monsters are quite numerous, and there are about thirty of them, but unfortunately they are all injured at the moment, and they are exhausted from the previous fierce battle, and they are only barely supporting at this time;

The only three remaining guards are the ones who have combat power in the group, but unfortunately, without the cooperation of the formation, their combat power is extremely limited.

A group of dozens of people was fleeing in panic, but suddenly heard an earth-shattering loud sound from behind, and then the ground under their feet also shook, and the people who were caught off guard suddenly fell one by one and rolled a gourd.

After a while, the surrounding movement slowly calmed down, and the frightened group looked back, all of them were stunned like wooden people, unable to move.

They racked their brains and even risked their lives, but the castle that they failed to blow up at the last moment actually collapsed and collapsed after they gave up.

And it was very completely down, and the castle, which was once not very majestic but was just as tall and strong, was now left with a mountain of ruins, and there was no trace of what it once was.

This change made everyone look at each other and be puzzled.

Why did the castle fall? There was such a question swirling in everyone's minds, but this incomprehensible question did not prevent them from being surprised and happy at the moment, and they were thundering with joy.

The last step in the plan, finally succeeded!

By the faint light of the scattered torches and fires outside the castle clearing, they could see that only a dozen centaurs had escaped in the clearing not far away, and they were looking at the huge pile of ruins in a stupid daze.

Polly they cried out happily and happily, but they also called trouble.

A dozen centaurs looked in their direction, and everyone was startled at first, and then calmed down.

It was just a dozen centaurs who had also been injured in various ways, and they should still be able to eat at this time, so amid the shouts of the half-elves, the people who could move began to sharpen their knives and prepare for battle.

It was only then that the sound of horses' hooves and black figures from all around them made their hearts sink from their chests to the soles of their feet.

Centaurs, numbering nearly a hundred, appeared out of nowhere and surrounded them.

These ghost-like centaur soldiers, all armed with spears, had no traces of battle, as intact as the army that had just set out, and many of them were holding torches, which completely exposed the embarrassed appearance of the people of Hammondal.

"This ...... How is this ...... What's going on? Polly stammered to the half-elf, his eyes full of despair.

The half-elf smiled bitterly and looked at the female magician, only to find that the other party was also smiling bitterly.

The two of them knew where these centaurs came from, but what if they did?

The nearly 100 centaurs were formed by the convergence of two centaurs who had been arranged by Ivo to guard the town's gates and patrol the town to prevent civilian disturbances.

When the half-elves began to move, the patrol team of centaurs happened to be moving near the town gate, because they were too far away, they did not notice the abnormal situation above the castle, until the first explosion in the castle, they realized that the situation was a little bad, so they immediately joined their companions guarding the town gate and returned to the castle.

When they finally arrived, the castle was gone, and they didn't know it, their generals were gone, and the army to which they belonged was gone.

The centaurs, who didn't understand what was going on or what to do now, were about to come up to see what was going on, but were drawn to cheers from not far away.

"Lay down your weapons! Surrender obediently! ”

A small centaur leader came out of the crowd, looked coldly at the somewhat panicked enemy in the firelight, and shouted loudly.

He was greeted by several strangely shaped spears and a red, orange-eared scimitar.

"Do you want to die?" The little boss sneered, "Surrender, and then tell us what happened here, why the castle became like this, we may consider letting you live, otherwise, you should know what will happen to you!" ”

"What will happen to you?" A voice asked rhetorically.

In the darkness, a dense group of figures appeared, and it was the human being who asked this question.

The human was wearing a white steel chain mail, which stood out against the green leather armor of the soldiers behind him.

The dozen or so calamities on the edge of the castle stopped in unison at this time.

To their horror, they found that the other side seemed to have the upper hand.

In the blink of an eye, the tide was reversed.

The centaur soldiers who had originally pointed their spears at the half-elves and others turned around, ready to deal with the new enemy.

"Your Lord!" The half-elf and the others cried out in surprise.

The person who came was none other than the Great Lord Chen Jian, who had led the guards to escape through another tunnel exit.

After they got out of the tunnel, they followed the route that had already been set, and rushed desperately in the direction of the castle to support.

As a result, due to the problem of distance and weather, they did not catch up with the protector of the female magician, but caught up with the rescue of the half-elves and others who were in trouble.

The lord, who had already seen the collapse of the castle, was triumphant at this time, and he looked at the centaur soldier in front of him disapprovingly, waved his hand and gave an order.

"Crossbow Array!"

Dozens of soldiers armed with light crossbows quickly formed a formation that could shoot in three sections.

The rest of the soldiers were armed with big-eared scimitars and shields.

The small leader of the centaurs did not show weakness, and at the sound of an order, nearly a hundred centaurs had an extra short spear in their hands at the same time.

Throwing from afar and stabbing from afar, centaurs have the means to fight the enemy, whether they attack from a distance or in hand-to-hand combat.

The toughness of the opponent made the lord's mood suddenly worse.

Originally, he thought that as long as he brought the guards to the statue, these remnants of the centaurs would surrender obediently, and they would scatter and flee at worst, but it was not the same thing at all.

Unbeknownst to the lord, the centaurs had no idea that their elven general had been buried under the ruins with his army, so they had not lost the will to resist.

The battle is on the verge of breaking out.
