Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Gordon heard the cascading cheers of the orc army. Immediately afterward, in the camp facing the wall where Gordon was located, that is, the north gate of High Rock Castle, a group of orc laborers dragged two huge black machines to the front of the battle like industrious worker ants.
These two machines are simply the craziest creations of the craziest engineers in the craziest dreams. The wooden frames, which are wrapped with ropes like vines in the primeval forest, and all kinds of winch, gears, and parts, are put together in the most unscientific way, making the two machines look extremely messy.
But I have to admit the fact that these two huge and ugly machines can actually operate normally.
"Oh my God, the orcs were able to build such a massive trebuchet?" Sword exclaimed.
The Ferreton soldiers on the city wall felt a great sense of crisis when they saw the cyclops actually put a huge rock weighing at least two tons into the trebuchet as a force.
The trebuchets in High Rock Castle can generally only shoot about 500 kilograms of stone projectiles, and even if they are installed in the Red Boulder Fortress, the four largest gravity trebuchets can only shoot about one ton of stone projectiles. But it's surprising that the orcs possess siege weapons that are more powerful than humans.
Moreover, the position of the two giant catapults arranged by the enemy was 1,500 meters away from High Rock City. This is far beyond the range of 500 to 1,000 meters on the human side.
The power and range were crushed, and these two trebuchets appeared. Almost changed the long-range firepower of humans and orcs.
"To be precise, it's not made by orcs, it can only be considered a patchwork." Gordon corrected Sword's words.
He already saw it. The two giant trebuchets were all made of parts and materials from Ferreton's siege weapons. It is estimated that in order to get these two big guys, the war warlord used all the human siege weapons captured in the previous battle, and those goblin engineers must have suffered a lot in order to create weapons that satisfied the war warlord. It is even possible that the Three Holy Baptists have provided some "technical assistance."
Regardless of their origins, the two big machines that appeared in the orc army today are undoubtedly very much in line with their "killer" identity.
"Gruda!"
"Gruda!"
"Gruda!"
A short word composed of orc language. Ringing through the sky.
In the simple orc language, which can even be said to be rude, a series of words related to "big", such as huge, huge, coarse, great, etc., can be represented by the three syllables of "Gruda". For the orc soldiers who were shouting frantically at this time. The word "Gruda" is not only a description of the enormous appearance and great power of the two catapults, but also an expression of their admiration and admiration for this weapon.
Prosperous! Prosperous!
With two loud bangs, the orc giant catapult fired.
Two boulders weighing more than two tons roared towards High Rock Castle with the momentum of the mountain. However, since the orcs did not polish the stone projectiles used by catapults into smooth circles like the Ferredon army. In order to improve the stability of flight. So neither of those two boulders hit the walls. The first boulder landed thirty meters away from the walls of High Rock Castle. The stone projectile hit the ground causing a huge vibration and splashing of soil more than ten meters high. It still made the soldiers on the city wall break out in a cold sweat.
Another boulder flew into the city, smashing the Platinum Temple, the tallest building in High Rock City, in addition to the Red Boulder Fortress. The medical room in the temple that had been specially opened for the treatment of wounded soldiers collapsed in an instant, and many priests and wounded soldiers were killed.
Chuck gasped when he saw this terrifying sight: "God knows how many times our walls can withstand such terrifying boulder attacks!" ”
His words made the people around him scared. Even the walls of Goyan Castle are so strong that they have survived countless battles. If you continue to withstand such catapult attacks, it is only a matter of time before you are crushed.
All eyes were on the mage in the dark red salamander cloak. They are able to raise their weapons. Bravely and fearlessly fought the orc soldiers, but in the face of those two terrifying giant orc catapults, they could do nothing but hope that the mage, who had brought about miracles after miracles, would once again stand up and turn the tide again.
"You look at me like that, but I really ...... Well, I do have a way to deal with those two trebuchets. Gordon shrugged. He is now a good mage who always likes to be prepared for all kinds of situations, and sometimes he has to work as a firefighter to solve all kinds of problems.
It seems that being a mediocre person who has nothing to do also has his happiness.
With a wave of his hand, Gordon beckoned Dudley to his side. This apprentice mage has always stayed in the real room to help Gordon, or to maintain the Black Titan, and has never been on the city walls. So today, after witnessing the brutal battlefield scene, his face turned pale and he didn't say much.
But Gordon beckoned him, and Dulina could only run over.
"How's it going, are you still used to it?"
Dullina smiled bitterly and shook her head: "My lord, as soon as I see the corpses of orcs under the city wall with cracked brains or tarred flesh, my legs feel weak. I don't think I'm fit for the battlefield. ”
"Even if it's not suitable, you have to get used to it." Gordon said undoubtedly, "Otherwise, when it comes to the critical moment in the future, when you need to stand up, but your legs are weak and you can't recite a spell, what should you do?" ”
"I ...... I'll do my best to ......," Dullina nodded with a wry face. Since he had received a good reward and a great future from Gordon, he had to endure this hardship no matter what.
"Alright." Gordon patted the mage's apprentice on the shoulder, "You know what I called you for, start measuring the distance." ”
Dullina nodded as he looked in the direction of Gordon's finger and the two huge orc catapults in the distance.
The enemy had already started the second round of reloading, and the two machines had to be destroyed before then. Let them shoot one more time, and High Rock will be a little more dangerous.
Dulina took out a long, barrel-shaped optical rangefinder from his trouser pocket and began to accurately measure the exact distance between it and the enemy's trebuchet position.
Gordon, on the other hand, took out the dark green spinel necklace and summoned the Black Titan.
This golem, which had killed two demon one-eyed golems, was the one in Rob. Under the deliberate propaganda of Archduke Antello, it has become a symbol of Ferredon's victory against the orcs.
As soon as the iron giant's huge black and shiny body appeared, it immediately caused bursts of cheers from the soldiers.
"Freeman!"
"Freeman!"
"Freeman!"
The cheers first rang out on the section of the wall where Gordon was, and then quickly spread to other defense areas, and the whole of High Rock City was boiling.
"That damn mage, you're demagogic there!" El Hoka gritted his teeth as he looked at the mage standing on the wall in the distance.
The flag bearer, who belonged to the Pioneer Cavalry Regiment of the Wintertalon Legion, was standing beside the Drington Knights at this time. He had been accompanying Drington to the city walls to check on the battle, but who knew that he had encountered a scene where Gordon was in the limelight, much to Elhoka's displeasure.
"Take it easy, Al Hoka, jealousy and hatred can only be a psychological twist and then make an irreparable mistake." Drington said lightly, then continued to look into the distance, observing the layout of the orc barracks.
However, although the handsome silver knight said it with ease and ease, what he thought in his heart was another matter.
"Young Master, you are magnanimous and have knightly virtues, but that despicable mage does not necessarily know what is good or bad. The last time in the Sevato fortress, he humiliated the banner of our cavalry regiment without a trace of repentance. With the relationship of the Grand Duke, he made a big show at the celebration meeting again and deceived all those stupid civilians! How can we brave knights charge into battle and fight orcs in bloody battles compared to a mage who hides in the shadows and manipulates ridiculous metal dolls! ”
Looking at the angry Elhoka, Derrington seemed to be uncovered from the scar in his heart, and his cheeks twitched slightly. However, he still controlled the situation very well, just glanced at the huge golem called the Black Titan, and didn't say anything.
Deep down, Drington longed to have Gordon broken into pieces thousands of times. But on the surface, he has to maintain his demeanor and maintain his image as a perfect knight.
Again and again, again and again, the humiliation again and again made Dellington's hatred for Gordon deeper. Especially after the celebration meeting where he was finally reduced to a supporting role, Derlington's rare thunder smashed indiscriminately, and finally after his sister Eflan's plump and delicate body was discharged, he was relieved.
But he still haunts it.
It is a pity that with the war exhibition, Dellington's hope to be able to grasp the fighter plane, make outstanding achievements, and suppress Gordon's limelight has also completely failed.
In the battle to defend the city, the elite cavalry led by him had no room at all, and could only be prepared as a reserve in the barracks at any time. Only once in a while, as he did today, could Drington go up to the top of the city to check the battle situation for himself, and he could relieve some of the anxiety in his heart.
On the contrary, Gordon, the hateful mage who is regarded by Drington as a sworn enemy in many ways, has grown in popularity because of his research on the "dragon powder" to defend against the poisonous mist dragon, and is worshipped as a hero by the soldiers and civilians of High Rock. And he has been doing nothing because he can't find the opportunity.
Although with his unrivalled handsomeness, Dellington still had a group of self-recommended pillow women to enjoy every day, but these were not what he was after. This new generation, who had high hopes from the Eisenstein family, wanted to make a mark in this war and become the new hero of the rising empire. But now, he shows that his light has been completely overshadowed by Gordon. (To be continued......)
