Chapter 481: Territory Guard

Roar~

With a low roar, a level 40 brute warrior stepped on the cloud ladder and rushed up the city wall.

As an elite-level combat force in the demon race, it has a strong physique and strong strength, and its HP is as high as 30,000 points, plus a complete set of armor and battle shields, so it can withstand the rain of arrows to kill on the city wall.

But this level 40 elite mini-boss has also come to the end of his life.

Boom!

No sooner had it jumped off its feet than a glittering blade slashed from the side, slashing at its neck with lightning speed.

This knife came extremely fast, and the timing chosen by the attacker was also excellent, and by the time the beast warrior sensed the danger, it was too late to dodge, and it was suddenly cut through the thick skin by the sharp blade!

Poof! -

645! -722!

The scalding blood slashed down with the blade, and the beast warrior couldn't help but let out a terrible howl in pain, and it instinctively swung its huge battle axe at the sneak attacker, intending to fight to the death.

But its opponent, after a single blow, suddenly slapped the shield it held in its left hand, and just as it fought back, it slapped it hard in the face.

Bang!

The cold metal shield contained terrifying power, and the heavy blow of the power of a thousand jun made the beast warrior involuntarily fall backwards, not only was he unable to complete the counterattack, but instead of being able to complete the counterattack, his chest and abdomen were exposed.

The battle shield erected in front of it disappeared without a trace in an instant, and it was still the same extremely sharp blade that swung like lightning. Cut into its chest-

495!

Due to the protection of the armor, the damage of this knife was not very strong, but a blazing fireball that followed was really killing the brute beast warrior.

Rumble!

The roaring fireball pulled a long flame trail on the city wall, slammed into the body of the brute warrior and exploded violently, harvesting the last of its HP in an instant!

Oh!

The brute warrior screamed, and his burly body collapsed on the city wall like mud as if all his bones had been drained, bursting out of equipment, gold, and materials.

Zhao Xi didn't look at the loot on the ground. He quickly took two steps back. Dodge several arrows in quick succession, while switching back to the Shield of Destiny that he had just recovered to protect him.

Syllable!

A turquoise arrow hit the shield, and it went more than half an inch deep into the shield surface, and it was nailed directly to it-

125!

Zhao Xi's head on top. Suddenly, a striking damage figure popped up.

With his current equipment and defensive attributes. In the case of resisting with a battle shield. actually lost more than 100 damages, and the combat power of this archer can be imagined.

Zhao Xi's gaze couldn't help but look over the city wall and cast it on the low undulating hills not far ahead.

It was the fifth day he had taken Aurora Castle. The crucial battle of the second ring of the territory mission has finally arrived, and a demon army has suddenly come out, posing a great threat to this newly rebuilt castle.

Thousands of orcs, led by dozens of demon warriors, launched wave after wave of fierce attacks on the city walls with the help of rudimentary ladders and catapults.

It's just that the current Aurora Castle is not the ruins of a few days ago.

Zhao Xi spent a lot of money to buy castle blueprints in Locke Fortress, hired a large number of NPC craftsmen, and also had the help of the entire goblin tribe, the newly built castle was tall and strong, with quite strong defense.

The most important thing is that with the financial support of Ha Shuangyang, Zhao Xi did not hesitate to purchase a number of catapults and heavy crossbows for defending the city, and erected a full sixteen arrow towers around the castle, and hired a group of catapults, crossbow drivers and archers, turning Aurora Castle into a thorny hedgehog-like store.

Although the half-orc army led by the demons was not afraid of death, they were also broken in the face of such a level of defense, and fell under the city wall in batches, and the blood that flowed almost filled the unfinished moat.

However, Zhao Xi did not take this lightly, because he knew very well that the real enemy was not the NPC of these systems, and the Imperial players who were shrinking behind!

Just like Zhao Xi attacked the ruins of Aurora Castle at the beginning, Imperial players have corresponding guard tasks, and now the demons recapture Aurora Castle is also indispensable for the participation of hostile players.

And this time in the offensive and defensive battle of Aurora Castle, there are not a few players in the empire.

Zhao Xi roughly estimated that the number of players in the empire was at least hundreds, even more than the demons, but they were very cunning and hid in the rear, and only ranged attack classes such as mages and archers were participating in the battle.

The tactics of these imperial players are very simple, that is, to use the army of the demons to consume the strength of Zhao Xi's side, and then launch a fierce attack when the time is ripe, and then take Aurora Castle in one fell swoop.

Zhao Xi's side didn't seem to have any better way to deal with this, and he also tried to organize forces to snipe at the Imperial players, but the latter retreated quickly and didn't give him a chance to kill at all.

"These rabbit cubs know how to sneak cold arrows!"

Just a few steps away from Zhao Xi, the heavily armed Ha Shuangyang swung his big sword and slashed down a demon warrior who had just jumped onto the city wall, only to be accidentally attacked by a magic missile by a mage among the Imperial players.

With his equipment level, of course, the loss of HP is not much, but this situation of being passively beaten and unable to fight back makes him very angry, and he can't help but scold.

Dodging another magic missile, Xiao Ha couldn't hold it anymore and asked loudly, "Boss, when are we going to do it?" ”

Zhao Xi thought for a while, and immediately said: "It's almost, you can take someone out!" ”

"Great!"

Xiao Ha was suddenly happy, dancing and shouting: "Brothers, let's withdraw!" ”

Sou!

At this moment, a cold arrow burst through the air and hit him in the back!

"I'm cāo!"

Xiao Ha, who was happy and sad, was furious and retreated with dozens of players guarding the city wall.

Without this group of main forces, the defensive force on the city wall suddenly became weak, and many orcs were able to rush forward smoothly, and the battle between the two sides entered the most tragic state of hand-to-hand combat.

Zhao Xi still held on to the city walls, but inevitably fell into the encirclement of the enemy.

Under such circumstances, the Imperial players in the rear stopped harassing their attacks so as not to inadvertently damage their own forces, and they took the opportunity to push forward and quickly approach the city walls.

These cunning Empire players are waiting for this opportunity! ――
