Chapter 17: The Fall of the Fortress

Chen Mingfeng was thinking about it, and the poison warlock couldn't bear it anymore: "Hurry up with the dragon corpse!" ”

In its eyes, transporting back the dragon corpse was only a temporary and dispensable task. Unplugging the other party's fortress is the most important thing! This war, which has lasted for hundreds of years, may be about to make a breakthrough today!

Chen Mingfeng didn't want to disobey the poisonous warlock, and there was really no need to get into trouble with Origin City. Kane smiled and gestured to Jane, the girl in yellow. Jane realized, launched the summoning technique, and summoned dozens of strong minotaurs to act as coolies, three by one, laboriously pulling the wooden cart away. The adventurers, on the other hand, were on guard all the way, and as the convoy slowly retreated, they bypassed the fortress and retreated to the rear along the military path.

The dwarven sniper who saw this qiē on the fortress squinted, and he could naturally see that the adventurers had abandoned the fortress, although he was a little disdainful of the practices of these "special soldiers", but he had to admit that it was the right choice......

He wouldn't go, though, and the dwarven sniper looked in the direction of the base camp from afar, and he had sent a signal for help a few hours earlier, hoping that the reinforcements would be able to catch up......

And those adventurers who chose to return to the fortress regretted the decision they had just made. The guys looked at each other, then quietly retreated, hiding among the soldiers, intending to escape from the fortress in the chaos.

The enhancement of a piece of golden equipment is a big reward, and it's a pity to give up here!

After the adventurers of Origin City left, the Scourge launched an assault on the shattered fortress.

Originally, there should be about 10,000 permanent troops in a tower fortress, plus the hero dwarf sniper and nine defensive turrets, it can completely resist five times the military strength, even if it is besieged, it can also send a signal for the rear troops to support as soon as possible. The first tower fortress and the second tower fortress are only 200 kilometers away in a straight line on the military road, and the soldiers in the battle to defend the ruins can come to the rescue with only two days of rapid marching. Moreover, there are villages and friendly primitive tribes hidden in the wasteland forests near the Soldier Road, all of which can supply troops and fortresses, so in hundreds of years, there has never been a complete siege.

After all, the continent in the world of the Ruins Defense War is relatively too small, with a length of no more than a thousand kilometers, and under the foot power of these perverted soldiers, the time difference cannot be pulled away at all.

However, this time was different, seeing the crumbling fortress and the only three ancient war trees left, the Venom Warlock was in a very happy mood, and he didn't think that this fortress could hold up under his command until reinforcements arrived.

Indeed, there are less than 5,000 soldiers in the current fortress, most of whom are wounded, and less than 2,000 can really exert their combat effectiveness. These remaining elites do not have the cover of the ancient tree of war, and the only thing to rely on is the high enough city wall. But even this ruined city wall is constantly shaking under the impact of siege trucks again and again, and it may collapse at any time.

It's not just the meat grinder that has the ability to siege the city, a robed adventurer on the side of Miracle City, his hands changing seals, and his mouth is full of words. As he cast the spell, the earth began to tremble slowly, the ground at the base of the fortress wall began to slowly rise, the moat was forced to be intercepted and overflowed, the earth and stone top of the wall began to shatter and tremble, and finally a small volcano nearly 100 meters high grew on the ground!

As soon as the volcano appeared, it began to erupt, and a large amount of magma and debris smashed into the fortress, how could the wall, which already had some cracks, withstand such an impact, and finally collapsed.

And the eruption of the volcano still did not stop, and the hot magma flowed directly into the city, engulfing the wounded who were recuperating inside, and for a time there were bursts of heart-rending screams in the fortress, mixed with the disgusting smell of meat, constantly impacting the morale of the guards.

The powerful mage removed the spell, and the volcano stopped spewing magma, and the lava flowing into the fortress quickly cooled and solidified, but the changed landscape could not be reversed. The Scourge roared and stormed the fortress where the walls had collapsed, and began a wanton slaughter.

Seeing that the opponent's fortress was about to fall, the mage who cast the spell smiled happily, not to mention anything else, just this move to break the big volcano of the city, I don't know how much contribution he earned. It seems that the choice of this world is correct, and the rules of the world of the Ruins Defense War dictate that only by storming the fortress can victory be achieved. Here, the trick of killing is far less efficient than the spell of siege!

"Lao Liu, you really dare to make such a blatant magnification move!" A short and stocky man patted the mage on the shoulder: "Although there are no adventurers on the other side, there are still crispy killers like dwarven snipers!" ”

The mage known as Lao Liu smiled: "Isn't this you!" With you Zhao Daring in front, what am I afraid of? Saying that, Lao Liu looked at a few people around him: "What are you waiting for, go in and kill a few more guards to save contributions!" ”

A few people around him smiled: "Don't worry, if you can capture the fortress, our Changfeng team has made a lot of contributions, and that little profit is not enough to worry about!" ”

This Changfeng clan is also the main force on the side of Miracle City this time. The scale of this team is not large, there are only six people, and the captain is the short and stocky man, named Zhao Daring, is a shield warrior, with a large round shield of golden grade on his left hand, a short axe in his right hand, and a horned helmet and beard, which really has the demeanor of a Nordic warrior. This guy has a strong defense and is known for daring to fight. But this Zhao Daring is not a fool who sees people, he is rough and detailed, and has a very good eye for judging the situation, he must go all out in the battle that should be fought, and the troubles that can be avoided will never be touched casually, it can be said that he is a brave and resourceful leader.

And that old Liu's name is called Liu Changfeng, he is a senior and famous war mage, especially proficient in strategic magic, in Zhao Daring's words, this old Liu usually lives a very careful life, and he likes to make some big scenes when he fights!

Liu Changfeng and that Zhao Daring are friends in reality, the two are friends from peeing and mud play since childhood, and now they are both over half a hundred years old, but they didn't expect to meet in Miracle City, so they simply formed a team. Originally, Liu Changfeng, who was relatively calm and cautious, was the captain, so he took the name of the Changfeng team. But later, by chance, Liu Changfeng needed to do a special task alone, so he could only leave the team temporarily, so he lent the position of captain to Zhao Daring. After coming back, I didn't bother to change it, anyway, the two of them have been friends for most of their lives, and they are like brothers who don't distinguish between you and me, so who is the captain doesn't care much, that's it.

As for the other four, they were all companions that the two later gathered, and among them was a berserker who had both speed and strength, and became more and more courageous, named Hyena; A long-range exporting beauty named Zheng Yi, who is proficient in bows and arrows and spear throwing, and has been blessed by the queen of the Amazons; A glasses man who is good at high-tech equipment and relies on various sci-fi equipment props as an assistant; There is also an old lady who is proficient in illusion and summoning.

Each of these six people is a strong man who can take charge of himself! Together, they formed a well-known senior powerhouse team in Miracle City, the Changfeng team! If it weren't for the small number of people, they might even replace Chen Mingfeng's Bronze Sparrow team and become the biggest force on the side of Miracle City this time!

"When I go back after this fight, not only the contribution, but also the military rank will also increase." As I said before, such a strong team composed of elites wants to do only big things, and they are not interested in small profits. Although the fortress has not yet been completely captured, several people have begun to pack up their things and think about what will happen after returning to the Scourge Fortress.

At this time, two panicked imps ran out of the woods not far away, and as soon as they appeared, they looked around, but they only saw the fortress mixed with screams of killing, and the Changfeng clan who were packing up not far from the fortress.

"Excuse me, what about the corpses of those black dragons?" The two little imps approached the Changfeng clan and asked in a bit of a panic.

Liu Changfeng looked down and was happy: "It turned out to be the two of you, I really have to thank you for your intelligence, or ordinary level dares to come to participate in this kind of confrontation against the world, and bravely collect intelligence, the system will never lack your contribution!" ”

Yes, these two imps are Persian Cat and Shangguan Yunhong. It was because of the information and images provided by the two of them that the Scourge Legion arrived in time to take the fortress. Whether as an adventurer or as a human being, Liu Changfeng is more senior and older than these two young people, so he has an appreciative and encouraging attitude towards the two Persian cats, especially these two young people are indeed courageous and worthy of this encouragement!

"I don't care about that!" The Persian cat shook his head and said excitedly, "Where are those dragon corpses?" ”

"Dragon corpses?" Zhao Daring pointed in the direction of the guard's base camp: "Let the guys from Origin City take it away!" ”

"Sure enough!" The Persian cat stamped its feet, its face full of chagrin. She originally thought that after opening the box, those dragon corpses would be meaningless to the adventurers, and Ma Le would stay inside, and she would always find a way to absorb the heart, so she would run away with Shangguan with confidence. But I never expected that the moment the venomous warlock saw those dragon corpses, he actually issued a task to transport the dragon corpses. Although the Persian cat and Shangguan were not present at the time, I don't know if this task was accepted by the whole city, or because the two had a great relationship with the death of the black dragon group, in short, the two of them also received a mission prompt.

And the Persian cat who received the task, the first thing that came to mind was: It's over! If the craftsmen of the Cataclysm side covet the dragon corpses, then the guards are not much worse, and those guys from Origin City must have received the same task, and these dragon corpses will become sought-after goods!

Thinking of this, the two imps who had already run a long way immediately turned back. Fortunately, in order to get rid of the enemy's pursuit, they deliberately went deep into the hinterland of the Guards Forest and made a large circle before heading in the direction of the natural disaster, so the straight-line distance from the fortress was not too far, and it didn't take long to rush back, but they couldn't see the dragon corpses everywhere anymore.

The two little ghosts were extremely annoyed, and they were about to chase them out along the military road, but Zhao Daring grabbed them: "Child, you don't want to die, how many rewards can a few broken dragon corpses have, is it worth working so hard!" ”

"Leave us alone!" The two little ghosts shouted hoarsely, trying to break free from Zhao Daring's hands, but the strength of this senior-level first-class tank exceeded one hundred and thirty points, even if it didn't use the energy amplification, it was definitely not something that two ordinary levels could break free.

"Just let it go! I'm curious, what are these two little guys going to do? ”

At this moment, a hoarse and young voice came into the ears of several people, although they didn't say any threatening words, but for some reason, they just made people shiver.
