Chapter 231: Scuffle

Kane nodded, this cylindrical thing was obviously a communication device, and he didn't carry any other weapons or anything like that, so it was obvious that this was just a person in charge of detecting if an enemy was approaching and then reporting the message.

Although this area once belonged to the Orc, it has been forcibly occupied by the Night Clan for a long time, so now it has become a lone army for the Orc, and in this case, it is necessary to guard against its own back road in case it is surrounded by the Night Clan.

From this point of view, the equipment of the beast army fighting in front of it is obviously extremely perfect, and it obviously belongs to the 'regular army' of the beast race, so the scale is naturally not small.

Kane wanted to bury him so that the poor orc could rest in peace, but it was obvious that the two of them had no intention of doing so, and they didn't have time to do such a thing now, so he could only pray for him silently in his heart, and then follow in their footsteps.

In fact, what Kane thinks about the most now is whether it is possible for him to resist or dodge at that speed if the sword is coming towards him, but to be honest, he really has no confidence, in such a short period of time, he may not even be able to enter the Night God Temple, of course, he is unlikely to be attacked without the slightest prevention like this beast, Kane is still a little confident in his perception and sense of murderous aura.

With the appearance of the scouts, several people were very close to the battlefield in front of them, and the sound of various explosions became clear one after another, followed by various screams, roars, and slashing sounds, and then the three of them saw a scene of extreme heroism.

Outside the woods was a large plain, with a slightly lower terrain, so from this point of view, it was full of black pressed human heads, and the number was simply incalculable, and at this time the two sides were obviously in a melee, except for the outermost ranged classes such as mage, priest and archer, which still maintained an approximate formation, the middle was already in chaos.

Kane only scanned the circle and found that the scale of this war was even bigger than he had imagined, the total number of warring parties definitely exceeded 100,000, and there were many races involved in the war on the orc side, and the most surprising thing was that more than a third of the magicians and archers in the back were elves.

As a race with a transcendent status on this continent, the elves usually do not show up easily, and it is difficult for ordinary people to ask them to help, and it is usually very rare to see a few magicians and archers in small and medium-sized battles, let alone such a neatly organized brigade now.

On the night clan's side, the half-orcs who occupy a huge number are still at the forefront, and there are also four or five kinds of orcs mixed in, although the real night clan is less than five figures, but it also belongs to the appearance rate is quite high.

So Kane's first thought was who started this war, who had the power to mobilize so many elves, and what was their strategic purpose.

Naturally, the orcs, who seem to be completely inferior on the surface, have no point in waging a war at this level, or do the orcs feel that they are fully capable of defeating the Night Clan?

Kane really couldn't think of any other reason than this, they had been dormant for a hundred years, and it was naturally unlikely that they would suddenly be unbearable and act rashly before the savior appeared, because everyone knew what the consequences would be.

'Boom, boom!'

A series of explosions rang out again, and several brilliant cannonballs streaked across the sky like meteors, landing in several places where the enemy was concentrated, and the earth and stumps flew in a burst.

As soon as Kane turned his head, he saw a row of artillery carriages set up in the outermost clearing, a group of orcs were busy nervously and orderly, constantly shooting bright cannonballs from it, and to his surprise, on the left and right sides of this row of artillery carriages stood two huge artillery carriages that were four or five times larger than the artillery carriages next to them.

It seems that the previous heat wave should have come from this kind of giant artillery carriage, although Kane didn't know how lethal this thing was, but looking at the size, he knew that it was definitely not easy to mess with.

"These NightFolk don't look like that!" Austin next to him said with some contempt after watching for a while.

Indeed, judging from the current situation on the battlefield, the Night Clan is obviously in a weak position, although the number of half-orcs is very large, but the combat power is not high, often the orcs can easily cut them down with a single sword, so at the moment there is a thick layer of corpses on the ground, and the fighting spirit on the side of the orcs is very high, and there is no tendency to be defeated at all.

Kane didn't want to argue with anything, but he had a vague sense that something was wrong, but he couldn't say where it came from.

"This is no ordinary battle. Karen Swordmaster suddenly frowned and said.

"What do you mean?" Kane asked, confused.

Karen's gaze was still on the battlefield," The gap between the two sides involved in the war is too big, the establishment of the beast clan is very complete, and the overall coordination is also very good, it is obviously a premeditated, planned and strictly commanded army, but the night clan is a scattered sand, and the military branch is also very single, and there may even be no one to command at all, according to what you said before, the night clan is not a stupid race, so the reason for this situation can only be one, this is an encounter, maybe the target of this beast army is not the night clan in front of you, it just happened to meet, or it itself is to sneak attack. ”

Kane suddenly realized that this was exactly what he felt was wrong, if it was really a head-to-head battle, it would be impossible for the Night Clan to not even have a peripheral class, but he agreed with the sneak attack, because the current situation of the Night Clan army was very likely to be attacked and killed in the first place.

But then Kane was stunned, his eyes quickly looked at the sky in the distance, and his face suddenly turned white.

"What's wrong?" Karen Swordmaster immediately noticed his abnormality, but when he looked at him, there was no movement, and there was nothing in the sky, except for a few large dark clouds.

Kane looked at the five dark clouds with distinct subordinates, his face became more and more ugly, and he said after a while: "That's not a cloud... It's a NightClan's warship!"

The two of them were surprised when they heard this, "Battleship?!"

Kane nodded, "It seems that the reinforcements of the Night Clan have arrived, and these orcs below are in danger!"

As if to confirm his words, a bright horn sounded in the orc army in front of him, and he saw that the angles of all the magic crystal cannons were raised together, aiming at the sky.

"It seems that the orcs have expected it. As a bystander, Karen Swordmaster's face didn't show much nervousness.

Kane nodded, his mind was full of the situation when he boarded this kind of battleship before, if the five ships that came were all of the previous level, then he didn't think that these orcs in front of him were capable of coping.

At this moment, a scream suddenly sounded, and a burst of light suddenly came from a large dark cloud in the front, and then a bright light swept towards the rear army of the beast clan at an astonishing speed.

The first time Kane saw this kind of battle, he couldn't help but feel a little worried about those orcs, but he saw a yellow light mask like a turtle shell light up in the sky above the orcs, covering all the ranged troops inside.

It was obviously not a defensive spell that could be cast by one person, and it was the effect of multiple mages or priests working together, but looking at the translucent wall, Kane was very skeptical that its strength would be able to hold back the flying cannonball.

'Boom!'

There was an explosion, and the brilliant cannonball smashed firmly on the light curtain, but surprisingly it was not penetrated, but only shook violently for a while before calming down, still protecting the long-range troops inside.

"What a shield!" Kane sighed, he didn't understand the exact power of the cannonball, but it wasn't easy to see at first glance, and it was still smashed from a high sky.

However, the good times were short-lived, and after the first battleship fired the shells, the next few ships also appeared one after another, and several shells of equal power also fell towards the shield that seemed to be still strong.

Naturally, the mages who supported them didn't have the confidence to catch so many cannonballs, and they weren't idiots who would just stand and let people fight, so after the first cannonball landed, the people below had already begun to avoid it.

'Boom, boom...!'

A series of dense explosions sounded, and the yellow light mask shattered after the third cannonball was smashed, and the next few cannonballs smashed directly to the ground, although the people below ran fast, the power of this cannonball was obviously beyond their expectations, so some people were still swept away by the violent air waves.

But the orcs were not powerless to fight back, and when the cannonballs fell from above, the row of magic crystal cannons on the periphery also fired one after another, and one after another the cannonballs flew towards the five dark clouds.

It's just that it's on the top and the bottom is on the bottom, and it obviously has a huge advantage over the warships above the bombardment, and although there are also many shells flying into the dark clouds, I don't know how much damage has been done to those warships.

Kane searched the orc lineup for a while, and finally found the leader of this team.

It was an unusually strong orc-clan, wearing a set of black armor covered with runes, judging from the ears and tail, Kane deduced that he should be a leopard-clan, at this time he didn't move, just quietly looked at the several warships that were still approaching, there was a very dark scar on his left face, running from top to bottom on the entire left side of his face, but the amazing thing was that although this scar passed through his left eye, his left eye was not blind, not only not blind but also very bright.

His expression was calm, but because of the scar, his otherwise calm expression still looked fierce, and next to him stood an orc with a horn in his hand, in addition to a row of guards.

'Boom!!Boom!!'

Two earth-shattering cannon sounds rang out one after another, shaking the ground, Kane quickly turned his head, and saw that the two giant artillery trucks were shaking, and the two giant cannonballs had been dragging their long tails and rushing towards a dark cloud on the far left of the sky above.

'Boom !!'

This time, what came out of the dark clouds was no longer the dull sound of the magic crystal cannon hitting it before, but the sound of an extremely loud explosion, with this explosion, everyone saw that the dark cloud ignited, and then the cloud gradually faded, revealing the huge iron-wood hull inside.
