Chapter 19: The Battle of Brown City (2)
Walking out of the cave and looking at the hilichurls who were still in chaos despite the best efforts of the priests, Li Chenglong was not in the mood to hold any pledge meeting. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
I just wanted to test my progress under the mastery of high-level qi, so after giving the order to follow me and prohibit attacks, I ran out of the forest with all my might. Li Dequan, who followed behind, watched his master disappear from his field of vision after leaving a series of afterimages.
Standing in the farmland outside the forest, looking at the city wall in front of him, which was only more than six meters high, Li Chenglong began to recall the information about Brown City in his mind.
Brown City is located in the middle of Blarney City and Avalon City, specifically in the lower right of the middle section of the line connecting the two cities, and is a town that was under the control of the Ashandruid before the beginning of the Kowloon Era.
In the previous war waged by the Fiona Warriors, the Grand Druid, who controlled Brown City, refused the order of the Wolf King to stop the Fiona Warriors, and privately reached an agreement with the Celtic Druid Elders on killing the Wolf King.
After the Fiona Warriors captured Avalon and quickly allied with the Celtic Druid Elders, Brown City was nominally incorporated into the Knights of Fiona's sphere of influence on the condition of full autonomy, as was the Druid Elders.
Unlike cities like Blarney, Brown City is just a city, and if it's not old enough and is the headquarters of the West Lena Druid, it's just a town, with no walls or towers. The walls were reluctant to be cut down by the druids, so they had to be built six meters high from the scarce stone of the Emerald Isle.
Since the Silena Druids were different from the Celtic Druids, they were essentially priests of the Silena and were not good at magic. Therefore, when the number of citizens who believe in Selena is not large enough, they are not able to imitate the original practice of Blarney City, and use a huge sacrifice to attract divine grace to bless the city wall to defend the barrier.
Now sensing that a large number of creatures disgusted by nature are gathering outside the city, the Great Druid can only order the citizens to be reined in, close the city gates, mobilize the believers, and urgently hire all mercenaries. It's a pity that this is not a fortress or a city of Celtic gods, although the citizens believe in Selena, but due to the clear division of labor in peacetime, they do not participate in military training at all, and they are just a group of cannon fodder who are not well equipped with weapons and combat literacy that is not as good as Kyle's characteristic recruits.
Feeling that the troops behind him had almost all come out of the forest and reached their respective combat positions, Li Chenglong still wanted to make a final effort.
Sitting in front of Byaki and flying to Brown City, he disarmed the commander Rune Stone from his equipment, and shouted: "For the safety of the lives and property of the people in the city, I advise you not to make unnecessary resistance, surrender!"
The Great Druid standing on the city wall is a natural anger directly at Li Chenglong. The figure sitting on Baiaki gradually disappeared, and Baiaki, who was severely injured, struggled for a while and fell to the ground, becoming the first victim of this war.
Sensing the danger, Li Chenglong, who played at a super level, promptly urged Qi to flee back to the rear of the military formation after leaving a row of afterimages. Li Chenglong, who was completely enraged by the great terror between life and death, waved his right hand, and the army composed of Cthulhu creatures launched a swarm charge towards Brown City. He also jumped on the back of a cold spider and mixed in the front line of the charge.
John was a Celtic swordsman in the prime of his life, having fought behind Cúchulainn as a Celtic shield swordsman in the Wolf King's Fight more than a year ago.
In that series of battles, John had seen both the Cave Bear and the Firebird, as well as the huge wolf packs of Timberwolves, Dire Wolves, and Silverback Wolves, but compared to what he had seen now, the scenes that had appeared in nightmares seemed to matter.
On the ground, whether it was the group of purple spiders that were taller than the cows at the front, or the terrifying-looking giants who were taller than the city walls, they all looked more terrifying than the demon cave bears. The important thing is that the druids turned into cave bears were only sporadically present on the battlefield, and now these huge and terrifying creatures are rushing towards them in droves.
In the sky, a large flock of horse-faced giant birds flew loosely like a dark cloud. I remember hearing someone who had been to the Goblin Plateau a while ago talk about this giant bird at the wine table, and he laughed at that guy at that time.
Now may the great god of war, Noah, bless the unfortunate man who was recruited to the city wall John because he was a spy for the Druid Presbyterian Church, and don't be targeted by those terrifying monsters.
John didn't have the luxury of living until tomorrow, only that he could die in the battle with the crazy gnomes behind him. John, who had finally become a master of swordsmanship, didn't want to die as worthless as those pigs in Brown City.
Grand Druid Hooll Mott stood on the ramparts and watched the swarming Cthulhu creatures, his instincts telling him that the real danger came not from the sheer number of large spiders, but from the twenty or so peculiar giants mixed in with the giants, from the humans who kept jumping on the backs of the purple spiders.
Seeing that the striker was already within range of the shooter, the Great Druid raised his staff and blessed the allied forces on the city wall with the power of rage, even as a powerful druid applied the power of anger to a large group of more than 10,000 people at once, his magic power was almost exhausted. But he knew that these garrisons, which consisted mostly of mercenaries and townspeople, would collapse at the touch of a blow if they lost their courage.
When the overwhelming number of arrows was still thirty meters from the front, it was under the control of Lee Seung-ryong, who had re-equipped the commander rune stone. Starting from the first row, the cold spiders spat out cobwebs into the air in rows, most of the arrows and almost all the javelins were stuck to the cobwebs and fell to the ground, and a few arrows hit the tall and also charged at the front line, but unfortunately the arrows shot by the archers composed of almost all citizens could not have any effect on the Guge giants.
Before the shooters could start the second round of shooting, Lee Seung-ryong, who had already begun to jump on the backs of the cold spiders in the first row, held the main body of the gemstone timepiece in his right hand, and waved wildly in the direction of the city wall with his left hand, snapping his fingers and excitedly shouting "Fire!" Fire! Fire!......“。
As the bracelets of gemstone timepieces were dwindled, the city guards on the city walls, whether they were drawing their bows or druids preparing to attack, would spontaneously combust as long as they were in the approximate direction of Lee Seung-ryong's snapping left hand. At the cost of the Philosopher's Stone, the alchemy of flames, which was added by the Ring of Fortagoa, showed the people of this world for the first time its destructive power against the army.
As the vanguard reached a hundred meters from the city wall, the five Guge leaders who rushed to the front launched the stealth technique and disappeared out of thin air.
