Chapter 163: Defending the City
On the walls of St. Yorktown, delicate patterns are like vines, all over the entire city wall, on the solid city wall, among the towering arrow towers, thick and sharp crossbow arrows, like the blood basin of the ancient beast's bloody mouth, glowing with a little cold light.
William, who had a delicate face on his head, was wearing a plain aristocratic robe, his face became paler and paler, and behind him stood Old John and Ashley, and the three of them looked at the other scene outside the city wall and the moat.
I saw that on the other side of the moat, through the rolling moat water, the thick black fog illuminated the entire sky, although it was bright daylight, but the rich dark power shrouded everything on the other side, the only thing I could see was a pair of dark green eyes like ghost fire in the darkness, the only thing I could hear was the piercing scream and the piercing sound of bones colliding and rubbing.
Looking at the sun gradually setting in the sky, the faces of the three people became more and more solemn, and the black fog in front of them also became more intense, and even the river water of the moat seemed to be a little more cold.
In the middle of the night, when he saw that the sun was about to set in the sky, William took out the Book of Sages from his arms, and with the power of the acting mayor, he urged the amplification magic in it, and said loudly: "Holy shield legion, guard legion, halberd team, crossbow archer, griffin army, dispatch!"
The words fell, in St. Yorktown, the sound of orderly footsteps came in a heavy rhythm, Ryan, Zoe, Jonathan, the three of them each led their own troops, appeared on the city wall, under the city wall, in the sky, a sound of eagle cry came, white feathers and yellow mane symphonic royal griffins scattered all over St. Yorktown, hovering up and down, staring at the black fog ahead.
Finally, the light of the sun finally fell, as if it was some kind of signal, just at the moment when the light of the sun fell, a sharp scream came, the thick black fog dispersed, click, the sound of bones colliding came, in the black fog, the pale and yellow white bones, holding a rusty sword, rushed out of the black fog, like a demon crawling out of the depths of hell, the dark green eyes were full of death, brandishing the sword towards the moat.
The skeletons didn't care about the surging river, and they were swept away by the torrent in an instant, but even so, they were still struggling in the river, trying to come to the other side of the river.
Behind this group of skeletons, the slow-moving zombies are like a wall of flesh that can't see the edge, taking heavy and slow steps, like a piece of humanoid stones, like dumplings, falling into the moat, seeing this sea of corpses and bones falling into the moat, as if blocked by mud and sand, it can resist the moat of countless orcs, in front of this group of immortal and indestructible undead souls who have no life at all, they can't play much of a role in resisting.
On the ground, boundless skeletons and zombies poured into the moat, struggling to get closer and closer to the walls of St. Yorktown, in the sky, a sharp scream came, whistling by, it was a pitch-black figure, the ghosts flew towards St. Yorktown in groups, they were born to fly, directly countless St. Yorktown's first line of defense, behind them, fluttering winged bats, like a black fog that moves freely, also towards the sky above St. Yorktown.
To say that in the thick dark canopy, the only ones who did not move were probably the few lichs holding white bone wands, their thin bodies, dark green eyes, and the dark power surrounding them, which turned their corpse-like bodies into extremely terrifying, and the gloomy green light turned into a plague and came in the direction of St. Yorktown.
"Ballista troops, attack!" Seeing this, William said in a deep voice, behind him, the crossbow archers raised their crossbow arrows one after another, swishing, a burst of sound of breaking the sky came, and the sharp arrow rain instantly shot towards the ghosts and vampires in the sky, holding the arrows of Jonathan's light power, for the ghosts and vampires, it has great lethality, as the arrow rain scattered, the screams in the sky were endless, and countless ghosts and vampires turned into ashes under the light and disappeared into the sky.
However, there are too many ghosts and vampires, and the crossbowman's magic arrows are only one round, and without the blessing of the power of light, the crossbowman's bow and arrow are extremely lethal, but for the tenacious vampires and self-healing ghosts, such lethality is not enough to kill them.
Seeing this, William's face remained unchanged, and he waved his hand, "Griffin troops, dive and attack!"
An eagle's cry came, and the royal griffins waved their huge wings, like boulder cannonballs, fighting towards the ghosts and vampires, to be precise, flying towards the ghosts, after all, compared to the fourth-level vampires, or the ghosts are better to deal with, besides, the vampires can absorb the blood of the griffins, which is also a big threat to the royal griffins.
I saw that the crossbow archers shot their crossbow arrows one after another, suppressing the vampires with all their might, preventing them from getting close to the royal griffin, so that the royal griffin could concentrate on dealing with the ghosts.
The battle in the sky has begun, and on the earth, as more and more skeletons and zombies fall into the moat, the turbulent moat water finally can't stop the skeletons and zombies, and they are immortal, and finally cross the moat and come to the opposite side of the riverbank.
At this time, Ryan and Zoe glanced at each other, and also moved, with the two of them shouting loudly, the Holy Shield Legion, the Guardian Legion, the Halberd Legion, the three teams were like three sharp blades, and instantly rushed into the undead, swords connected, qiāng shields collided, and the skeleton zombies fought together.
However, the number of undead is too much, although the strength of the royal griffin is far superior to that of the ghost, but in terms of the number is much less, although the first-aid tent left by Gu Feicang continues to apply healing magic, but the royal griffin still has irreversible damage, and the battle line in the sky begins to retreat.
Seeing this, William glanced into the distance, Francisco, where the hell are you, come back quickly, otherwise, I won't be able to hold on.
Immediately, William waved his hand and drank: "Set fire to the Raven troops!"
With William's order, a noisy song of birds and crows came from St. Yorktown, and in the darkness, a little fire rose from St. Yorktown.
