After the many mercenaries were mobilized, the magistrate Harrick gave them a simple grouping, and then each led the team to the treasury to receive various supplies for defending the city, and each went to the area in charge of arming it. For a while, the entire town of Chanda began to operate in an orderly manner like a huge precision machine.

Because Li Mu and his party were important personnel in discovering the Dark Order, they were brought by Count Arassis to guard the city wall above the city gate. As an important position for the entire defense, Count Arassis also arranged six heroic fighters, six hired crossbowmen, and two freelancers as defenders here, and sent Kai Instructor and Fat Robin to help strengthen the defense, as for Li Mu and others, it was just incidental.

At about eight o'clock in the morning, the hot sun began to gradually rise, and the mercenaries also took turns to eat breakfast, and they all recovered to their best. Just as everyone was lying on the head of the city and looking into the distance, a rumbling sound came from afar.

Then, a large number of high-ranking soldiers of the Dark Order, such as the Dark Guardian and the Python Fang, who were neatly dressed in black armor, lined up in a neat line and marched towards Zenda. Behind them and on their wings were at least a thousand pirates and robbers. Dressed in a motley outfit and armed with a variety of weapons, these men crowded around the Dark Order's army, following the Dark Legion.

Li Mu looked from afar, and a bright red banner floated above the ranks of the Dark Legion, and the silhouette of a black dragon with teeth and claws was painted on the banner. At the front of the whole team walked a warrior in hideous armor. The other party is nearly two meters tall, and there are large and small spikes erected on the armor on his body, which makes people feel frightened when they look at it. The other party held a silver meteor hammer in his hand, and the sharp thorns flashed with green light, as if it was smeared with some kind of poison. If anyone who knows the goods is here, then he will definitely recognize that the silver meteor hammer is one of the artifacts lost on Calradia, the fang.

Speaking of which, let's talk about some of Calradia's definition of artifacts. Artifacts here do not refer to weapons that have been used by gods or possess divine powers, and most of the unique and high-quality weapons with names are classified as artifacts in the continent of Calradia. Like the broken thunder in Li Mu's hand, the Jinling step battle axe, and the moon wheel in Hull's hand are all artifacts. Even, the brick that Sylves gave to Li Mu can be regarded as an artifact......

Li Mu recognized the identity of the other party at a glance, the other party is the strongest melee infantry warrior in the entire script, one of the three leaders of the Dark Legion, the ace of the Dark Army, the founder of the Python's Fang, Yumeng Gangde.

The Dark Legion marched fast, obviously on foot, but it was not much slower than on horseback, and it was so uniform and rhythmic that the pirates guarding the two wings around it had to trot to keep up, which was unbelievable.

Ten minutes later, the Dark Legion was on the foot of Chanda Town. Looking down at a large area of black pressure from the castle tower, the entire legion crawled silently on the ground like a fierce beast ready to choose and devour at any time. Many of the defending mercenaries on the city wall couldn't help but be constantly drummed, and they were overwhelmed by the opponent's momentum.

After the Dark Legion came to a standstill, Yumengander waved behind him, and a black-armored Dark Guard ran forward, he gave Yumengande a knightly salute, and then shouted at the wall, "Surrender or die." ”

Sou. A sharp arrow plunged into the opponent's feet, and the feathers of the arrow trembled. A girl in chain mail on the city wall slowly lowered her bow and arrows. She answered the other with actions.

Yumengande didn't seem to care about this almost provocative behavior, he waved his hand again, and the dark guards who had been shouting ran back, while the entire dark guards and pirates began to get busy, and ten minutes later, three siege towers that were level with the walls of Chanda Town were erected.

Looking at the demonic assembly speed of the other party, Count Arassis frowned, but he still didn't say anything and observed carefully.

The crunch, the sound of wood grinding constantly came from the siege tower, which seemed to be extremely heavy, but it steadily advanced towards the walls of Chanda Town.

"Prepare the rocket," Count Aracis ordered.

A dozen archers who picked up their bows and arrows took their arrows wrapped in strips of oilcloth and lit them in the brazier, then aimed them at the slowly advancing siege towers.

"Put."

Whoosh. Burning arrows shot straight at the siege tower.

Bang bang bang. A series of sounds sounded as if they had hit the metal, and the flaming arrows felt as if they had hit the siege tower, and they could not penetrate a single bit, and then they fell to the ground one after another.

"Ironwood, it's such a waste that they actually made siege towers out of ironwood." Count Arassis gasped and shook his head, sighing.

Ironwood is one of the more precious woods in Calradia, scarce in quantity, moderate in weight, but with a hardness comparable to steel. Many people are proud to have a shield made of ironwood, and even the armor worn by the legendary King Henry is made entirely of ironwood.

And the Dark Legion actually used this kind of ironwood to make siege towers, which couldn't help but make many people sigh.

"Shoot your arrows and aim at the crowd below."

Whoosh, rows of sharp arrows were hurled out again, and the target was the pirates pushing the siege towers,

Pirates dressed in linen naturally had no ability to defend against arrows, and could often shoot their opponents to the ground with a single sharp arrow, and then be trampled into pulp by the crowd behind.

As more and more pirates were knocked down by sharp arrows, the pirates below slowly began to collapse, some pirates began to quietly retreat, and the pirates at the end of the line even began to want to run back.

"A rabble." Umungander spat disdainfully, and with another wave of his hand, a group of Dark Guardians pressed up, slashing the pirates behind them who tried to escape.

"Those who retreat die, and those who are the first to attack Chanda Town will be rewarded with 1,000 dinars." The herald's voice rang out through the room.

"Brothers, rush." I don't know if it was the bounty and the butcher's knife or if Eumond had planted control among the pirates, but anyway, several pirates began to take the lead in charging towards the town of Chanda.

The entire pirate procession was also swept towards the walls of Chanda City. And the three siege towers advanced three points faster than before.

"The archers stand on both sides, sniping at the people on the siege towers on the flanks, and the heroic fighters are ready to block the landing position of the siege towers at any time." One order after another was delivered. There was an uproar on the walls of the entire town of Chanda.
