Chapter Forty-Three: The Miserable Fortress

In the middle of the road, a large number of soldiers from the natural disaster side are cooperating with the hero and are taking a war boat south on the river. The river was wide, thousands of meters long, and the Scourge flotilla was unhindered by the Guards until it landed on the south bank.

"Is that message true?" One of the heroes in the bow muttered to himself. He was short in stature, but very strong, with a white bear skin covering his head, and a pair of sharp claws tied around his wrists. Even though he was tightly wrapped, it was evident from the faintly peeking green skin that it was supposed to be an orc.

This classic dress, and the bloody breath that can be felt from afar, yes, this orc is the famous hero of the natural disaster, the blood demon!

The Blood Demon turned his head to look at a woman beside him, frowning slightly in confusion.

This woman looks to be in her early twenties, with a slender figure and a delicate physique, wearing a set of classical clothes with wide clothes and large sleeves, with a unique style, which has both the classical beauty of the East and the post-modern artistic atmosphere of the West. The clothes as thin as cicada wings, the delicate corners, the dazzling exquisite jewelry, and the almost anti-gravity clothing belts exude a floating fairy spirit everywhere.

Looking at the woman's appearance again, her long straight black hair was neatly trimmed, hanging down to her calves, and there was a hint of blue in the black light. The smooth and full forehead supports the entire face shape, and the soft contours are just right to bring out the femininity. The beautiful eyebrows, the delicate and straight nose, and the lips are dotted with a pearl-like round luster, all distributed in the golden ratio on the snow-white face, which not only looks beautiful, but also has a sense of sacredness that makes people worship.

The only fly in the ointment is the eyes. It's not that this woman's eyes are not good-looking, but that she can't see. Her eyes were obscured by a black and red blindfold, which was extremely thin and almost perfectly fit her skin, but there was no undulation in the area of the eyes, as if the woman's eyes were not in existence at all, and there were two patches of skin underneath the blindfold.

But apparently no one would believe that. Because although this woman's eyes are covered, when facing her face, you will still have a feeling of being seen, and this is not a simple sight, once shrouded in that mysterious "gaze", you will have the feeling of being checked inside and out, as if you can't hide a secret in front of her.

The first time he looked at this woman, the Blood Demon also felt this way, but on the contrary, he couldn't see through this woman at all. Although this woman was just an ordinary recruit at the time, the only thing that was special was that the letter of introduction mentioned that she had special abilities.

In this magical world, it is not uncommon for people with strange abilities to appear, and occasionally in the army, even the more than forty people who came with this woman are all strange people. But since meeting this woman, the Blood Demon has concluded that this guy will be the key to this war! He even thinks that this newcomer may be even more terrifying than those powerful heroes who have been famous for a long time! Because of this, the first time they met, the Blood Demon remembered the woman's name - Bright Eyes.

Sure enough, in less than five days, Mingyan climbed to the position of the commander of a thousand commanders, which is basically the most senior officer under the command, and in this kind of front-line fortress, the status is only below the hero!

Although his name is Commander of a Thousand Soldiers, his soldiers are not simply a thousand people, and when the hero is not there, the Commander can be used as the commander of the fortress to make decisions! So to get to this position in just five days, either a special person with a back (harmony) scene from the base camp, or a super rookie who has made a terrifying military exploit!

And it was this super rookie who suddenly reported to himself not long ago that there had been an accident in the enemy's fortress, and now was the best time to attack, and he was willing to lead two thousand elites to cross the river to the south.

There are two heroes in the first tower in the middle of the natural disaster, in addition to the blood demon, the famous king of bones, King Leorik is also here. Given the good performance of Bright Eyes, Skeletron still trusted the accuracy of this message, but the Blood Demon was a little skeptical.

The ability to regenerate has made Skeletron's sense of danger a little dull, and he will trust anyone who is an outstanding subordinate. But the Blood Demon is different, this shrewd and cunning orc likes to sneak up and give the enemy the most ferocious blows by surprise, this solitary fighting style makes him far more suspicious than the average kind, he has never trusted this mysterious woman with her eyes covered. 、

Where did she get the tip? Did you make an appointment with the other roads to attack together? If that's the case, the news should have reached the hero first, how could a commander be contacted? Moreover, this woman has a high prestige among the recruits with special abilities, and they even have a vague faction of their own, and they do not fit in with the other soldiers, so this news is hard to guarantee that it is not a conspiracy.

So in the end, the Blood Demon took the initiative to ask to go with Mingyan, and also brought a thousand dead soldiers trained by himself, and in this way, a hero, dozens of adventurers, and the elite of the three thousand Cataclysmic Legions quietly boarded the warship and crossed the river south.

The Guards' fortress was less than five kilometers away from the river, and the Scourge found a hidden place to land, and after going ashore, they relaxed their movements, which was already on guard for the Guards fortress.

The Blood Demon sent a team of agile trolls out to investigate the situation, and after about ten minutes, the group of scouts came back to report that several guard towers along the river were empty, there was no sign of fighting, and no soldiers of the guards were found.

Retreated? The Blood Demon frowned, even this kind of front-line soldiers fled, could it be that something really happened in the fortress?

The Blood Demon motioned for the army to go up the riverbank, and when the Scourge Legion climbed to the heights, they were shocked by the distant scenery.

The fortress that stood a few kilometers away on the military road of the Pingchuan River has now become a huge torch 100 meters high, and the raging flames soar into the sky, and the billowing smoke obscures the sky.

The beautiful woman known as Mingyan frowned slightly, and a petite and cute girl next to her jumped over: "Sister Ming, that Chen Mingfeng's news seems to be true, is he really out of luck?" ”

Another tall, muscular woman walked up and spat, "Phew, just his bear-like look?" ”

Mingyan waved his hand: "It's useless to talk more, when you arrive at the scene, the truth will be revealed!" ”

The Scourge began to march towards the burning fortress, and on the other side of the fortress, a tall figure was standing at the foot of the city walls, looking at a necrotic ancient war tree.

This figure is extremely majestic, five meters tall, and its whole body is made of solid rocks, and the whole person looks like a super giant erect gorilla, no, thicker than the body of a gorilla, so that he is not very easy to move, and his every move carries the sound of Kalakara.

This is the power hero of the guards, the mountain giant is small, and the only giant creature among the heroes of the Ruins Defense War! As a rock elemental creature, he weighed more than twenty tons!

The tall mountain giant looked down at the dead ancient war tree, the ancient creature was in a miserable state of death, one arm was rudely broken, the main trunk was torn in two lengthwise, and even the old face was distorted.

The mountain giant let out a stone-trembling sigh and got up and walked to another wreck not far away. This one is more complete than the first, at least it doesn't have missing arms or legs. The ancient war tree had been torn from its mouth, its entire head had been bent backwards, almost in half at 180 degrees, and the broken stubble was broken by the fibers of its teeth and claws, and the fallen leaves all over the ground told the people that it had died in the same agony.

Not only these two, but around the twelve corners of the middle fortress, the twelve ancient war trees were lying miserably on the ground, some of them were uprooted, some were broken by the waist, and some were rudely twisted and broken branches into "sticks". This corpse can't see the majesty of being alive at all, and the distorted death is like a weak girl who was raped and then killed by a rough man, which can only show the horror of the enemy.

"Enemy, strength, strong!" The mountain giant opened his heavy lips and said slowly, "Very strong! ”

"How is it compared to you?" A shrill question came from the air.

"I, I can't do it, it's better......" The mountain giant replied intermittently, and the shrill voice in the air seemed to gasp, "You mean, his strength is only stronger than yours?" How is this possible, is he Roshan? ”

"Impossible, Roshan, River Cave, don't leave ......," the Mountain Giant replied slowly.

"I know......" The shrill voice said helplessly: "I'm a metaphor, metaphor you know, what a wooden head!" ”

"I, no, the wood ......," said the mountain giant, still unhurriedly, "it's a stone......"

"That's enough!" The shrill voice roared, "Damn, how did you get together with you stupid big guy!" ”

"The top priority now is to find this damn bastard, more powerful than you, there is no such guy among the heroes of the Know, hehe, killing this stupid big guy is the most enjoyable!"

"Enemy, very strong!" The mountain giant said slowly: "Gather helpers, unite!" ”

"I know!" The shrill voice said impatiently: "The key is the position of the enemy!" ”

While they were arguing, a silver-haired woman who was a little lost and depressed came from not far away, and she saw the mountain giant, and rushed up and shouted, "Hero, that devil, that devil he ......" while shouting, the woman pointed to the northwest.

"Did you see him?" The shrill voice was pleasantly surprised: "In that direction did he go?" ”

The woman nodded vigorously and spat out a place name: "Dragonman Canyon!" ”
