Standing outside and looking out at a vista, D-Knight was surprised to find that this was not the Grey Frost ruins he knew, because everything seemed so lush and full of life.

The red-robed commander Arkadir in armor turned his head to look at the court wizard Rueders beside him.

Unlike the average old man, Rudels was very old, but he was not hunched, and his straight waist made him look half a head taller than Arkadir.

Arkadir withdrew his gaze from his gray and fluffy beard, and glanced at the checkpoints he had set up at the bottom of the mountain, his brow still tinged with concern: "Teacher. ”

It was only when no one was around that Arkadir called Rudders, who had been apprenticed to the venerable court wizard for a long time before he became commander. Although Arcadiel's magic skills were far less famous than his swordsmanship, this did not prevent him from respecting Rudels.

"Say whatever you want, it's just the two of us here."

Rudels saw the hidden anxiety in his smug disciple's eyes and sighed.

"The dark door opened by Avagan this time is because of the ghosts of those dark-skinned dwarves......"

"Arcadir, you are the commander, don't let your personal emotions cloud your judgment, the dark elves have become our allies."

"How can we hope in those who are good at treachery? Teacher, we lack nothing now, no walls, no ballistas, not even priests who can treat the wounded, only the passionate loyalty of the warriors, you know that if the demons of Avagan swarm over, we won't be able to resist for long! ”

"We have no choice," the old mage's face was neither sad nor joyful, and a pair of grayish-brown eyes looked west, "no matter what the cost—even if we fight to the death until we are left alone, we will never be able to hand over this temple, and perhaps others will not understand why the sanctuary should be built here, but I think if it is, you should understand the reason." ”

"There is an extremely large amount of elemental power hidden under the mountains here, if it is handed over to the demons, they will use it to tear open the rift in time and space, and if the demon king of the abyss realm is brought to this world, it will be the end of all the earthly races." Arkadir looked away, and though he didn't want to admit it, he said, "I understand." ”

The old mage leaned on his staff and sighed: "Everything, we can only hope that our allies will arrive soon, God bless Kloette!" ”

The demonic assault began at dusk.

The sun on the horizon had not yet set below the horizon, but a black tide had swept in from the west side of the temple.

The wind was howling, devastating, and by the way, it began to rain in the sky.

Arkadir pulled his voice in the wind and rain: "Soldiers, don't panic, don't retreat, guard your defense!" ”

The first wave of demons soon arrived in a group of ugly green-skinned swamps, half the height of humans, with bare heads, and often armed with blunt instruments polished from wooden planks or stones. The Greenskins swamp Demon does not have a high IQ, so he has a low rank in Alvaron's power, but because of his strong reproductive ability and aggressiveness, he is often used as a stormtroop by the demon army.

As soon as the two armies came into contact, they immediately distinguished the advantages and disadvantages, in terms of individual combat ability, the three green-skinned swamp demons together could not defeat a human warrior, but the problem was that the inky tide that came over like a flood was too fierce, and you could only see those bald-headed green-skinned monsters filling the ravines that humans had spent a day or more digging in an instant.

They were undaunted to fill holes with their bodies, and they slammed into the wooden fences that stood in their way with all their might, and although the human warriors behind them struggled to withstand the impact, the green-skinned monsters with low intelligence and dexterity came up with a way to use each other's bodies as platforms to jump over the fence several times higher than their bodies. The green tide kept pouring in, and the guards of the wooden fence were overturned by the waves, and they did not stop in the slightest and continued to rush upward.

However, this situation is still not the worst, while the ground is constantly being tilted by the demons, the black tide in the sky is swept in, countless gargoyles are overwhelming, they are like a gale, walking like locusts, as long as a dive, the soldiers' bodies are eaten away in the black hurricane, the metal armor and blades are corroded in the wind, the skin and blood are stripped away little by little, devoured clean, only Bai Sensen's skeleton is left, and it falls in place!

It was a horrific slaughter, and the human soldiers were losing ground one after another.

"The back, draw the bow, don't let those damn gargoyles come over, the soldiers in front of you gather their formation, hold on, you must hold on!"

With a sword in his hand, a sword cut the oncoming gargoyle in two, and Arcadir's voice screamed in the rain.

The situation was not optimistic at all, no, it was simply terrible, and at the moment when he shouted, two more soldiers on the front line were torn to shreds.

Fortunately, his men were all proud soldiers of the Empire, and a uniform salvo slightly blocked the speed of the advance of this black tide.

"Oh, shit! The people in front retreat, we narrow the encirclement! ”

Use up!

A thunderbolt from the sky whitened half of Arkadir's face, and he looked up at the sky, where the black gargoyles converged in the same direction, forming a huge shadow floating in the air.

What is that? Everyone's face was a little more gloomy. Because the figure was so large that it was oppressive.

"My lord, what are we going to do?"

The adjutant came up and asked Arkadir.

What to do?

Arkadir clenched his fists.

"Hold on, even if you throw your life here, you have to defend until the last moment, do you hear it!"

He grabbed the adjutant by the collar and shouted hoarsely.

The monster in the air spread its wings to cover the sky and the sun, and the moment it swooped down, it swept away a whole line of soldiers, and a few of the unlucky ones who couldn't dodge were torn to minced meat by his claws in an instant.

Arkadir's eyes were red with rage as he saw it.

He showed his matching sword and pierced the sky: "Bastard, come down and fight me to the death!" ”

But the monster flipped its wings and swung in a circle, continuing to sweep the human soldiers.

Arkadir turned his head angrily and shouted at the archers behind him, "Shoot it down for me!" ”

"But sir......"

"It's an order!"

But even if the commander ordered it, it would run into a situation when the strength was overwhelmed, and the arrows shot by the archers could not even stick to the monster's body, and they were blown away by the wind instigated by the monster's wings.

Just when Arcadir's heart was anxious, a flash of lightning swept through the sky, directly slashing the monster's floating body, it was attacked by such an unexpected blow, its wings sank, and it almost fell from the air, but it managed to beat its wings and stabilize its balance.

With a puzzled gaze, it turned in the direction of the temple.

At the top of the temple's tower, the figure of the court wizard Rudels appeared, his white beard and robes dancing fiercely in the wind and rain, holding his staff aloft and chanting ancient incantations.

Bang, another lightning bolt!

The Croyette soldier rejoiced at the blow, but Rudels's face did not relax, and his old countenance became more serious, it should be said that the monster fell sharply in the air for a while, and it stopped, as if relieved of the heavy weight of thunder and lightning, and shook its head like a mouse, and with a strange scream, it rushed in the direction of the temple.

"Teacher!"

Arkadir couldn't help but shout, but he didn't have time to be distracted, because a new wave of demon tide was already attacking the city!

Long plot animation.

Chu Yun suddenly found that his mouse could move.

He receives a quest prompt: Hold the line for 5 minutes and protect Arkadir from being killed!
