Chapter 14: The Beginning of War (1)

"Enemy Attack !!!"

The alarm from the watchtower silenced the entire fortress for a few seconds, and everyone stood in place, as if they had been silenced.

It wasn't until the alarm bell rang that Fort Glory was in chaos like a fryer.

A panicked Arator shouted on the walls to organize the defense of the soldiers, the armory was opened, bundles of crossbows were lifted to the walls, fire oil was filled into a huge oil pot and began to be warmed, trebuchets were raised from inside the walls through mechanisms, archers stood behind the warriors holding huge tower shields, and the holy light shone on the arrows and tower shields.

The first thing that appeared in front of them was a battle line of black pressure made up of Hellhounds, and the Cerberus that came like a tidal wave was completely berserk under the demons' will, and they didn't even look for arcane energy, but charged again and again with their own kindred, and these monsters covered in red scale armor rushed from the end of their vision to the first line of defense of Glory Castle almost instantly.

The first line of defense immediately played a role, as if an endless sea of arrows was scattered all over the sky, instantly blocking the tide of Cerberus, and the mages standing on the high wall chanted the spell of the blizzard, and suddenly dark clouds covered the sky, and sharp ice spikes fell from the sky, piercing those scale armor and sticking Hellhounds into the ground.

But the Cerberus, with red eyes, continued to charge as if they were tireless, stepping on the corpses of their own kind, and then turning into corpses for the people behind them to climb.

Any spellcaster is vulnerable to Cerberus, these demons are able to devour the caster's power, and even some high-level Hellhounds will use mana to burn, if it weren't for their limited attack range, it is estimated that these Hellhounds alone would be able to break through the defenses of Glory Castle.

At this time, the cannon on the city wall was finally activated, and the cannon loaded with scattered bullets crossed the front row of Cerberus and exploded in the demon army, and the flame flowers bloomed, and the pieces of iron that flew around them when they bloomed gave these demons great damage.

There was a sudden silence on the battlefield, and after countless whistling shells exploded, the Hellhound was finally restrained from attacking, and the "carpet" that these demons had spread out on the wilderness had become tattered, and there was a whistle from the demon army, and these hounds turned their heads and returned to the demons.

Aktos also came to the defense line at this time, although the attack of these demons was blocked, but this did not help the battlefield, these demons almost tore through the first line of defense just by relying on the hellhounds, and also consumed a lot of ammunition and arrows in the castle of glory, and the corpses of the hellhounds piled under the defense line also became the ladder for those demons to climb the city wall.

And where those moles are, I have no clue at all.

As if he saw something, Arator patted Aktos on the shoulder: "After so many years of defense, we still haven't been breached, relying on more than just this little strength. ”

Aktos nodded clearly, he was also stunned by the traitor and the first time he saw such a battle, since Glory Fort can be firmly nailed here for twenty years, he must have encountered many such situations. If the Hellhounds alone were able to break through the defenses, Fort Glory had already been breached by demons and slaughtered.

Aktos was a little relieved, waved his hand and spread blessings to help these warriors improve their morale, a thin layer of holy light appeared on their bodies, which could provide them with a small amount of defense and stamina recovery speed, as a hero-level professional, it usually developed in two directions.

One is the heroes who specialize in combat, they can assassinate the enemy's high-ranking troops, and they can also become the vanguard of the battlefield to surprise the enemy army, tearing the line like a meat grinder. When they become heroes, they gain one or two powerful skills that are almost unmatched by other heroes of the same tier.

The other is the leader class, although they are slightly weaker in frontal fighting, but they are no worse than those heroes who use the final skills, these heroes who have given up their ultimate skills often have a special aura, after several halos are superimposed, the combat effectiveness of the army they lead will be greatly improved, although it is not as good as the blessing of the pure auxiliary class, but on the battlefield, the slightest improvement can change the tide of battle. Moreover, this kind of hero can boost morale and lead the army to fight.

The last one is the auxiliary heroes, who give up the frontal combat effectiveness, and focus on defense and data, their battlefield skills are converted into range skills, recover injuries, provide defense, restore stamina, and improve morale, these heroes standing in the rear of the army are a headache for all generals, they don't need to fight head-on at all, as long as they don't reach the limit, the troops where these auxiliary heroes are located are almost impossible to defeat, on the battlefield, it often takes double or even two times as many fighters to defeat them, or grind these auxiliary to death.

Aktos is such a support hero, wielding his spells, group recovery, group blessings and group mantras, Aktos has taken the dual healing to the extreme, with chakras under his feet, a huge fountain of life is set up in the center of the Glory Castle, and a small holy light array appears under the feet of each soldier, which can speed up the recovery of wounds when they are damaged.

The Arthur brothers gave Actos a figurative name to this state: **(ru) mode.

To this, Actos's response was simple, and the dark circles on Brother Arthur's face were the answer.

Dozens of huge abyssal demons rushed towards the defense line, followed by hundreds of demon guards, looking at these demons, Arator raised the long sword in his hand and said to Actos, "Now, please see the power of Glory Castle." ”

With the swing of the long sword, a huge magic array appeared around the Glory Castle, and a huge roar resounded through the sky.

Actos looked around, and there was nothing, but some powerful force was rushing towards it - it felt like a quagmire.

A strange sensation slowly seeped through the Glory Castle beneath his feet, and Actos felt that something was gently caressing the land, nourishing the body and mind, like a mother's feeling.

"It's ...... Water?! Actos looked at Alator in surprise, and the young paladin smiled proudly: "This is one of the most powerful defenses of the Glory Fortress, the water elemental frenzy that has been channeled from the Zangar Swamp, which is covered with all kinds of magic arrays, and then hidden through special techniques, these magic arrays have penetrated the entire Zangar Swamp in the past few decades. In order to complete this legendary level of battlefield magic, we fought almost completely against those Naga in the Zangar Swamp, where thousands of warriors left their lives but forged the legend of Fort Glory. ”

Aktos looked at the huge magic array in front of him, and could only sigh at the perseverance and strength of these sons of Lothar.

The massive torrent broke through the rocks covering the surface of the earth, forming a huge moat around Fort Glory, which traversed between the demons and the defense line like a moat, and the ladder of flesh and blood piled up by the countless hellhounds was washed away the moment the river appeared, and all the corpses were swept into the river, and then completely torn apart by the furious water elemental, and thrown into the Zangar swamp to become fertilizer.

One after another the water elementals roared out of the river, and rushed towards the demons with their hands raised, tiny ice spikes swept through the demon army like flying locusts, and the entire battlefield was covered in the red-green of the Burning Legion and the blue of the water elemental army. The two colors fought against each other, and the water elemental was constantly scattered and burned dry, but more water elements emerged from the river like an endless stream, and the demon army gradually fell into the disadvantage.

But if that's all there is to it, what are the demons attacking Danas for? Actos's mind was getting more and more chaotic, and he couldn't figure it out.

Arator can stop the demon army with those veterans, these water elements can fully support the arrival of reinforcements on the frontline battlefield, if those demons only have this plan, then the Dreadlord is simply a bunch of fools, Arctos doesn't think that he suddenly has any intelligence reduction aura, and he will turn the conspiracy masters who crisscross countless worlds into circle nine at once.

Just as the water elemental had the upper hand and was chasing after him, the dark clouds in the sky suddenly thickened, covering the entire sky, and some green thunder and lightning shone in the dark clouds, and Actopton panicked at the sight of this - what was the most terrifying thing about the Burning Legion and the most representative of their appearance? Not the Hellhounds, not the Dreadlords, not the likes of the Succubus.

Watching the green flame meteor fall from the sky and slam into the water elemental and the protective shield of the fortress, the panicked shouts of the soldiers rang out in Arctos' ears: "It's the rain of chaos!!! Hellfire Legion!!! ”

Countless green hellfires smashed on the battlefield, and the magic shield on the fortress bounced these hellfires away, but those water elements were not so lucky, these monsters with blazing flames all over their bodies rampaged in the elemental legion, every element that came into contact with them was constantly burned and vaporized, and after just half an hour, the water elemental legion was compressed into the moat, and almost most of the water elemental was burned alive, leaving less than a tenth of the water elemental to support in the water.

And the hundreds of hellfires only lost a dozen under the frantic attack of the water elemental army.

It was a landslide victory.

In the moat, a roar rang out: "Stupid demon! You will pay for your deeds!! ”

A huge whirlpool appeared in the current, and a huge hand reached out from it and slapped it on the shore fiercely, just one moment, it tore apart a hellfire, completely extinguishing the flames on its body.

Aktos felt the furious energy of the whirlpool, and the force that almost tore everything apart made Arctos worry about the safety of Glory Castle.
