Chapter 13: Enemy Attack?!
Back at the fortress, Actos was tired and wanted to lie down in bed and get a good night's sleep, but who knew that the herald was already waiting for him at the door of his dormitory.
The young herald should be the new generation of sons of Lothar born in the Outlands over the years, they are obviously different from those born in Azeroth, these light people will have some traces of magical energy infection on their skin, and after healing, the infected skin will be silver-gray, and this herald has a silver-gray scar on his face.
Seeing Actos, the young herald immediately stood up and said, "Mr. Priest, Commander Danas, please go to the combat command room, there is an emergency. ”
Aktos didn't think much of it and immediately went to the command room. Although I don't know what happened to Danas who was in such a hurry to find himself, it was probably related to the battle on the front line of the legion.
When Aktos arrived at the command room, Danas was not here, and the empty command room in front of him made Arctos's heart sink, and he immediately took out his staff and looked at the herald vigilantly.
"Who are you?" A terrifying aura of holy light brewed in Arctos's hand, and the punishment was ready to be attacked.
"What? Mr. Actos, I'm a Herald of Fort Glory. After a pause, the herald asked curiously.
Aktos shook his head, and the siren immediately sounded throughout the fortress, a siren given to him by Danas to prevent Arctos from being sniped by spies.
Shaking his head, Actos' voice became colder: "The defenders of Fort Glory never say that they are Fort Glory soldiers in private, they have always called themselves the sons of Lothar. ”
The herald suddenly sneered, and the green flames in his eyes began to burn: "What a delicate mistake, but it doesn't matter, as long as I kill you, then everything will be fine." ”
Flames burned from the herald, and soon, a loud voice appeared, the high-ranking soldier of the Burning Legion, the Doomward Guard.
This is different from the Doomward Guardians encountered in Azeroth before, Azeroth's natural barrier limits the power of these demons, if the demons in the Outlands have 100% strength, then the demons in Azeroth have less than 50% power.
The Doomsday Guard laughed wildly, "We have discovered that you have killed that hellhound in the mines, and if you are allowed to grow, it will sooner or later adversely affect our plans, Lord Tirdick orders me to destroy you completely!" ”
Acttoston felt that his IQ was underestimated.
Was such a stupid plan really planned by the Dreadlord who claims to be the wisest of the demons? Just send such a bulky and stupid doomsday guard? Perhaps on the battlefield Doomsday Guard is a nightmare for all armies, but in terms of assassination...... Actos really didn't want to laugh at them.
Facing the arrogant Doomsday Guard, Actos took a deep breath, then turned around and added a Heavenly Feather to himself, and ran away.
Even the Doomsday Guard was dumbfounded.
Don't be cowardly on the front? Can you still have fun?!
The Doom Guard said that he was very happy, and finally got an assassination mission to prove that he could perform some sophisticated confidential missions in addition to being a stupid big man.
However, the target in front of him ran away, and he was simply loveless.
Looking at the small doorway in front of me, I didn't have my waist high, and the doomsday guard was crying.
In desperation, the Doom Guard wants to use magic to shrink his body, but when the spell is used, an even more strange and violent force bursts out from the Doom Guard's body.
Like a little spark falling into a pot of oil, the Doom Guard's huge body instantly swelled a few times, and a strange gray flame burned on the Doom Guard's body, and the mutated Doom Guard hissed in pain.
Where the flames burned, the black scale armor broke through the skin and flesh and grew, like half of the scale armor of the dragon's spine covering the demon's body, and finally only a pair of blood-red eyes were covered by translucent armor.
The entire Glory Castle was shaken by what looked like a giant mutant dragonman. The huge monster roared, and burning flames erupted from its mouth, and the flames stuck to the building like burning oil, and the stones even began to melt under the flames.
Actos looked at the raging monsters and the nowhere to be found in Danas, feeling a grave uneasiness.
Under normal circumstances, Danas would have been here to command, and although the veterans of this alliance had been clinging to the outer lands for twenty years, these times did not polish his faith, but instead allowed him to use this hardship as a whetstone to sharpen his heart.
Worthy of a commander of the Alliance.
But now at this critical juncture, he is missing.
Assassination or diverting the tiger from the mountain? Aktos hopes for the second option, because at least it won't let morale hit rock bottom. As for escaping, Actos didn't think the veteran would do such a thing.
A physician known to Actos hurried up and whispered the sad news to Actos, his suspicion was true, that Danas had been assassinated, and that he was still alive.
When Actos arrived with a group of guards, Danas had already bandaged his wounds, but he was still lying on the bed unable to get up, and not far away was a beheaded soldier.
A guard who had been replaced by a demon gave him a knife, causing a small wound directly in his lung, but nullifying the commander's mobility.
The old man could only lie on the bed, and it was difficult for him to even speak.
Aktos gave a brief explanation, and Danas didn't say much, and directly assigned Arator to take his place and defend the Glory Castle.
The young paladin was stunned for a moment, and immediately ran out with his soldiers, the demon still wreaking havoc in the Glory Castle.
Actos stayed, using the holy light to help Danas heal, the faint holy light stimulated Danas's wound, and the wound began to heal quickly, but due to the irreversible damage, Aktos did not dare to use stronger spells, otherwise the person was not dead, but it was blown up by Arctos's spell, which was simply a tragedy.
While Actos was thinking, Danas grabbed Actos' hand and wrote on it: "The devil is coming, beware of the traitor." ”
Acttoston broke out in a cold sweat, if the demons attack again at this time, Fort Glory will almost face defeat, but it can still make do with the defense and wait for reinforcements, almost until the reinforcements arrive. But if there is a traitor, it is estimated that it will not be able to hold even half a day, the signal has been sent, and a reply has been received, but the troops on the front line will take at least a day in order to get rid of the pursuit of the demons, and it is now half past three in the afternoon, and those supports will need to arrive at three o'clock in the afternoon tomorrow.
When Aktos heard the news, he almost cried on the spot, not to mention this situation, it was difficult to hold on for a day.
By this time, Arator had already begun to command the troops of the fortress, and the hero's son quickly proved himself and it didn't take long to extinguish the fire.
The ballistas on the fortress were raised, and the crossbow arrows linked to the thick chains were staggered into the ground, and the mechanism of the arrows was triggered instantly, and the barbs dozens of centimeters long pierced into the ground, firmly holding the chains in place.
Like a large metal net, the Doomsday Guard is locked in the fortress playground.
The cannon on the watchtower began to turn to aim at the immobile Doom Guard, and the arcane energy was gathered, and the torrent of energy pierced into the Doom Guard's scale armor, tearing the scales of the defenses like white paper.
Soon the warriors with their swords charged at the demon, their blades full of hooks and thorns like wolf fangs, tearing at the demon's flesh and blood, and it was not long before the demon was dying with the cooperation of the fortress guards.
At this moment, the soldiers standing on the watchtower let out a terrible shout: "Enemy attack! ”
