It's been two days in a row, and the dark elves still haven't had the momentum to attack again. And the forward fortress also took advantage of this window to start repairing the badly damaged buildings. Of course, the absence of an attack does not mean that the Dark Elves will allow the defenders to strengthen their defenses with ease.

Dark elf crossbowmen are constantly sniping at the artisans who emerge from the walls with their enchanted crossbows. Although relying on the 'terrain' advantage formed by the city wall, those dark elves have little chance of succeeding. However, there were still occasional unlucky craftsmen or engineers who gave them a hand and were wounded by arrows.

Coupled with the fact that the Dark Elves are experts in using poison, how can their crossbows be clean? Of course, if it is a covering shot, it may not be quenched based on cost considerations. But if it's a one-on-one sniper mission like this, and it's to intimidate the defenders in the city, those black skins won't save on that.

Therefore, those unlucky eggs after being hit by the arrow, even if they did not die on the spot, once the rescue was not timely, they would still only leave a corpse. At the same time, in order to deal with the damn poison, the fortress had to consume a lot of magic power. It also affected the next combat readiness work to some extent.

After all, the resident priests in the fortress often have the ability to copy scrolls, and they are able to store their usual magic for the rest of the day. Otherwise, how could it be possible to survive the previous battles by relying solely on the daily spells of the priests? Even if an ordinary injury can be used to use the priest's guiding energy to help recover, a giant wound such as a broken bone still needs the help of targeted magic.

However, at this time, every time you spend an extra magic spell to neutralize the toxin, you will have one less emergency magic skill in the next battle. However, as long as the wounded are taken to the medical station. Those pastors can't do it without their hands to save people. If this is the case, the morale in the fortress will be unstable. Who knows if those grassroots soldiers will feel sad after seeing this scene. If this causes a large area of demoralization. This battle is still not fought. Therefore, in this kind of thing, divine magic cannot be saved.

It is even more impossible to stop the maintenance of the walls, knowing that every gap left is often filled with at least double-digit defenders in wartime. So even if someone falls from time to time, these projects are still going on one after another.

Although the fortress side is not thinking of using means to counter those black skins who are responsible for sniping. However, the dark elves who are proficient in magic have created a big problem for the Norhan defenders - those dark elves are still invisible even at the moment of attack. Under the protection of the 'high invisibility' ability, it was not easy for the defenders to find those black skins above such an open boundary outside the city. Not to mention the use of projectile weapons to fight back.

So now, heavily armed on the walls of Barrett, with a one-man tall tower shield in hand, guards the craftsmen who fill the gaps with stone and quick-drying cement. And this job was actually applied for by Barrett himself, and he still remembers the ghostly look on the face of the Master Chief who managed the broken line when he heard Barrett's application. I'm afraid the other party never thought that he would be tempting to take on such a job!

For Barrett, of course. Stopping the crossbow arrows fired by those dark elves is far less dangerous than others think. First of all, the combination of the pure gold breastplate and the tower shield, with Barrett's battlefield instincts, is difficult to be overshadowed. The second is Barrett's own tenacity, which is quite high. The ability to fight toxins is good. In the end, even if they are really poisoned, they will be escorted by the 'power of the iron heart', and they will not cause trouble to the priests of the medical station.

It is precisely because of that multiple protections that Barrett will take the initiative to take on this kind of work that others see as very dangerous. And thanks to his prestige among the defenders of Nohan. Bullish again. Especially whenever the work is over. The arrows stuck in his shield and armor would make the nearby soldiers look at him with respect.

Along with the noodles on guard on the front line, they secretly joked: "Barrett, you have all the prestige in the surrounding circle!" ”

However, the time of peace was short-lived after all, and the dark elves outside the city quickly finished their rest and launched another offensive against Chenggong. With the majestic organ music playing, thousands of enemies swarmed towards the fortress. Barrett could feel that there were more enemies in front of him than there had been in the previous days, and it seemed that the Dark Elves had been reinforced by their companions—or rather, they had converged their passing forces.

As for why the dark elves didn't wait for everyone to launch a siege after waiting for everyone, it had something to do with their culture and system. Each Dark Elf city is led by a council of the heads of several powerful families, and each Dark Elf family has to watch out for the others.

Because the way the dark elves are in a cruel way. They believe that what is not seen is not sin. Therefore, it often happens that one family swallows up or obliterates other families because of their superiority. And if this behavior is done cleanly, they will be recognized. But if it is discovered. What awaits them is the common punishment of the other families, summoning the demons of the Abyss Demon Domain to directly wipe out the family that launched the attack.

In this same Dark Elf city, the rulers are all under a system that can be brainstormed. The black skins outside the fortress were able to maintain restraint and unity, and it was a blessing to the outside world. It is impossible to want them to be of the same mind. Besides, the dark elves attacked the fortress in front of them to a certain extent to please their goddess. Fighting for credit is inevitable at such times, and it is no wonder that they attack without waiting for follow-up reinforcements after maintaining their strength.

When the servants carrying the siege ladders approached, the defenders, including Barrett, greeted them with a rain of arrows. However, their commander-in-chief didn't care at all about the performance of these guys, or the damage they might inflict - the use of these troops seemed to be only to drain the arrows and physical strength of the defenders of the advancing fortress. The dark elf phalanx behind was in full formation, and the second massive siege tower was ready to go.

Just as the servants' ladder had just risen to the top of the city, a deadly sound filled the air. Each terrible scream became more and more unbearable. At the same time, Barrett also felt that there was no reason for the weight in his body. The ordinary guards beside him were trembling all over, and a few of them couldn't even hold the weapons in their hands. And Rielly, who was still casting a spell just now, was interrupted by the spell because of this. The backlash that came at any time accompanied by Long Wei made her turn her back on her even more.

Barrett, who had had experience in the genre, immediately activated the spirit of perfection. Let that barrier ripple under this influence. Having successfully weathered the difficulties, he said with great certainty: "This is Long Wei!" ”

For at this moment the reinforcements of the Dark Elves have arrived on the battlefield, and under the wide dragon wings, the kings of the shadows of the main plane have descended - the Shadow Dragons are untrustworthy monsters that hovering in the darkest corners of the Fallen Shadows. Whether lurking in the depths of the plane's dark regions or commanding armies from ancient cities filled with undead, the Shadow Dragon is a formidable force in the plane.

At first glance, the Shadow Dragon does not appear to be an entity. Its black skin and translucent scales help it blend in with the darkness. Even to the other dragons, the Shadow Dragons are a mystery, and the origins of these selfish creatures are still obscured. Like the darkness around them.

Their preference for insidious behavior is often no less than that of their green relatives who live in the forest. At the same time, their translucent black bodies often make them mistaken for some kind of hybrid black dragon. But its head has distinctive rows of rear-pointing horns. The back of the dragon's neck has a long brim made up of spines, and its powerful tail is characterized by swimming fins.

The nesting habits of these creatures in ancient ruins and similar underground sites reinforce their sinister name. Because these environments fit perfectly into their shadow form. It seems that the dark elves have paid enough chips to make these big guys excited, in exchange for their support.

At the same time, the survival rules of the Dark Regions are much more cruel than those of the Main Plane, which also makes the dragons here spend more time training themselves - instead of waiting for death like those compatriots on the surface, waiting for their strength to naturally increase with age. Of course, the dragons of the main plane are not without the type to work hard. But it has always been a minority in numbers. So the enemy in front of you is really a powerful predator that stands at the top of the food chain.

The arrival of these dragons on the other side. Even the Dark Elves were in a bit of confusion. Soon, however, the opposite side subsided. Of course, if they didn't know it in advance, even the well-trained dark elves wouldn't be able to do it in such a short period of time. Taking advantage of the opportunity, the dark elves instantly used the newly arrived siege equipment at hand to instantly suppress the defenders of the advancing fortress.

Fortunately, at this time, a burst of passionate songs were remembered in the fortress, and the guards, who had regained control with the help of the bard, immediately responded to the Shadow Dragon with hundreds of arrows. The power of these arrows was very ferocious, and after the deflection of the protective arrows weakened, many of them hit the shadow dragon's body.

In fact, underground dragons are much less intimidating to strongholds than they are on the surface. Because no matter how high the dome of the cave is. But it's still too narrow compared to the vast blue sky. In this environment, the dragon is not able to fully exploit its aerial superiority. Therefore, the projectile weapons in the fortress are quite threatening.

Although the arrows in the first round were not enchanted, it was difficult to deal any damage to the Shadow Dragons. But these haughty dragons can't afford to wait and not fight back. While dodging the constant projectile of weapons in the fortress. The Shadow Dragon rushed into the crowd. The giant creatures descended, dodging their bows and arrows, and the Shadow Dragons didn't want to feel the power of the magic arrows at such close range—they didn't see them in the first round of shooting, but they didn't have to think that success was unreserved.

But these huge guys miscalculated, and before they could take off again. The warriors who had escaped the influence of Long Wei couldn't wait to rush up. The timing of the rich selection of these experienced soldiers was really good, and the shadow dragon that rushed into the crowd could not rise into the air again, and the weapons hit the shadow dragon's scales one after another, stirring up sparks one after another.

At such a close distance, the Shadow Dragon's energy-absorbing effect is equally powerful. A breath can kill and injure a considerable number of guards. However, the archers were also a great threat to the Shadow Dragons at such a distance, and in order to relieve this pressure, the Shadow Dragons began to break through to the archers' positions.

However, due to the desperate resistance of the soldiers in the front row, the shadow dragon in front of him can now be said to be unable to move an inch, although the shadow dragon has always focused on protecting its soft belly and fragile eyes. However, in order to break through the blockade of the warriors and remove the danger of the archers, the shadow dragon was still a little impatient.

Suddenly, two cold rays of light rushed towards the Shadow Dragon, one towards the Shadow Dragon's eyes and the other at the Shadow Dragon's abdomen. You must know that the belly of the dragon is the softest, and the scales covered on it are relatively not so thick. Sensing the threat, the Shadow Dragon immediately activated the spell items on his horns, causing the opponent's attack to be affected by the deflection field.

Even so, Barrett, who swung a knife, still injured the shadow dragon in the abdomen. The sharp Broken Peak Mo Knife was accompanied by the power of the stone dragon, and instantly crushed a row of dragon scales on the outer layer and cut into the texture. Although this is only a skin wound for the dragon, it can be healed for a short time by their own healing power. But the feeling of being scratched on the belly is not comfortable.

Fortunately, Barrett was prepared for this, and he immediately flew back after the first blow. He wasn't going to be a great dragon slayer - but the Shadow Dragon wasn't just the one that Barrett had chopped off, and with a "boom", a violent ball of fire exploded. It was a sneak attack launched by Ying Long, who had not yet revealed his figure.

However, it seems that the energy stored is insufficient due to the invisibility of the spell, and the power of the explosion is not as good as expected. Any hematite-rank caster can judge the effect of this fireball spell - as long as it doesn't take into account the opponent's supermagic effect.

But even so, the power of that big fireball was enough to make the guards within that range stagger. Barrett, who was rolling in the flames, was lucky not to be hurt in any way, but unfortunately, in his field of vision, all the guards near him fell to the ground, and their lives were unknown.

Immediately after that, the sharpshooters at the head of the city also began to draw their bows and arrows, aiming at the shadow dragon. With good eyesight, Barrett's peripheral vision could detect the flickering magical light on the arrows—special enchanted arrows. It seems that the forward fortress is not completely unprepared for today's situation. (To be continued......)
