Chapter 57: The Boulder Fortress
The Boulder Fortress was like a lone rock in the ocean at the moment, and the black-brown insect tide was constantly beating against him like ocean waves, but he still didn't move. Morgana frowned and looked at the battlefield, Chu Heng gave him nearly 800,000 swarm troops, but she attacked the Boulder Fortress for three consecutive days without taking it, the twelve magic towers and six magic crystal cannons on the Boulder Fortress, nearly eight hundred magic bed crossbows, made the swarm suffer heavy losses.
"Your good days are coming to an end today." Morgana said hatefully. She had already sensed the 100 mammoths and 1,000 flying dragons that Chu Heng had newly hatched, but at this moment, an assassin appeared in front of him, and from his uncertain black eyes, it could be seen that he was having a spiritual exchange with Morgana.
"You're saying you caught a guy who claims to be Victor? How could he possibly be here? Morgana said in surprise. The assassin spoke, "He was being hunted by four silver-armored warriors who claimed to be Victor, and we rescued him and brought him here. Morgana thought about it, it might be more appropriate to leave these matters to Chu Heng to deal with. Hand him over to his master to deal with! The assassin nodded and vanished.
With her eyes closed, Morgana was watching the beating of the thousands of eggs, looking forward to the moment when they would emerge from their cocoons......
In the Boulder Fortress, Angela Carmen, the Governor of Wayneshire, and Charlotte Christine, the general of the Rock Legion of the Boulder Fortress, are looking at the huge magic crystal in the hall with a sad face. Angela asked worriedly, "General Charlotte, how long can the Rock Fortress last?" "General Charlotte is a veteran general in his seventies, who served in the Sacred Prayer Legion and was the division commander of the First Division of the Holy Prayer Regiment. He has fought with Marshal Tiele for nearly forty years and is an extremely experienced veteran general.
"There are less than 2,000 giant armor-piercing magic arrows in the Boulder Fortress, and we can't even complete a few salvos, a few days ago, the Zerg attacked extremely fiercely, and we had to use a large number of magic cores and energy crystals to activate the magic tower and magic crystal cannon, and now our magic cores have basically run out, and the energy crystals can at most allow the magic tower to maintain a high-intensity magic output for a day. If the Crystal Cannon is activated, I'm afraid that in less than an hour, our energy crystals will be used up. Charlotte said helplessly.
"How is that possible? When the news of the fall of Phoenix City came, I concentrated almost all the energy crystal stocks and troops in the entire Wayne County in the Boulder Fortress, I voluntarily abandoned the county town, I almost gambled my future to defend the Boulder Fortress, how could this be? Angela's answer to Charlotte was hard to accept, giving up almost all of Wayne County in exchange for only holding on for three days, and now he could hold on for a maximum of one day, which he couldn't accept in any case.
Charlotte was also reluctant to react to Angela, and he was sure that Angela would be able to give up the entire County of Wayne to defend the Boulder Fortress, which was almost a gamble on his life's future. It is important to know that the abandonment of one city and one land in the kingdom decree may be forgiven, but the abandonment of the entire county will almost certainly become a sinner in the kingdom. But Angela is also a decisive person, and the three counties of Momiji, Kutus, and Wardle together did not hold out for 6 days, so Angela decisively concentrated 70,000 troops in the county to meet the 50,000 defenders of the Boulder Fortress to defend against the invasion of the Zerg. He knew that if he defended like the other three counties, he would definitely follow in their footsteps, and it was better to rely on the powerful defense system of the Boulder Fortress to have a chance of survival.
Today, news came from the royal capital that they only needed to hold out for two more days before the Sacred Prayer Legion would come to their aid, and relying on the powerful Divine Prayer Legion, the possibility of the Zerg breaking through the Boulder Fortress was almost zero. However, now that the energy crystals and magic cores are almost used up, it is a question whether they can hold on for a day.
In fact, Morgana, who had thirty mammoths in her hand, was able to break through the Boulder Fortress without sacrificing anything, and on the first day of attacking the Boulder Fortress, Morgana sent nearly 20 mammoths to attack the city in one go. But to his surprise, the Boulder Fortress was actually equipped with a Grand Magister-level magic crystal cannon, and that earth-shattering shot alone caused Morgana to lose 40,000 swarms and 3 mammoths, and most of the other 17 mammoths were also injured. Morgana immediately changed her tactics and used the swarm to engage in wheel warfare, refusing to send the mammoth in her hand, which she regarded as a treasure, to her death. The Human Grand Magister-level Magic Crystal Cannon needs to be activated with a level 9 magic core, or a large number of energy crystals can also be activated, but the power is much less.
Morgana didn't know that there were only three level 9 magic cores in the entire St. Ulan, and there was only one in the Boulder Fortress, so it was impossible to use a Rock Fortress that could kill 3 mammoths in one shot like that. Morgana also used the method of digging tunnels with soldier ants, but there was no shortage of earth mages in the Boulder Fortress, and the soldiers were quickly sealed underground. Morgana also used the host's airlift method to parachute her troops directly onto the walls of the Boulder Fortress, but unfortunately, during the long-term confrontation with Rigard, St. Ulan invented a magic device that could warn air units, so that the host of the sneak attack directly appeared in its original form and was torn to pieces by 12 magic towers.
Morgana decisively used Wyverns and self-detonating moths to invade the Boulder Fortress from the air, but the Magic Tower had a magic grid that was extremely effective in the air, and the weak self-detonating moths were killed by the power grid in pieces, and only the strong Wyverns could get close to the Magic Tower and spit out their angry power wheels, but unfortunately the number of Wyverns in Morgana's hands was too small to threaten the magic barrier on the magic tower.
Morgana, who had exhausted all her means, had no choice but to send a swarm of insects to attack the Boulder Fortress day and night, and finally consumed the massive energy crystals of the Boulder Fortress, but the swarm also paid nearly 150,000 casualties. However, the strong reproductive ability of the insect swarm was fully reflected after obtaining a large amount of resources from the four southern counties, and the three-day attack not only did not make Morgana's troops less and less, but the number of troops increased from less than 400,000 at the beginning to 800,000 now. As far as the eye can see, the Boulder Fortress has almost become a sea of zergs, and the terrifying number makes Charlotte, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, breathe.
Morgana stood on the back of a wyvern, looked at the long-lost boulder fortress and sneered, "Celebrate your last days, the Wyvern Legion will sing you the last elegy!" Behind him, nearly a million insects roared excitedly at the Empress of the Heavens, their red eyes full of madness, they were not afraid of death, they were not afraid of pain, they were the most powerful weapons in the hands of the Dominant, for the sake of the Dominant, tearing apart all enemies......
