Ryan looked at everything in front of him with satisfaction. With 5,000 people defending the 5-kilometer city wall, it should be very good to have the current results, he secretly estimated the time in his heart, his own military camp not far away was already brightly lit, and the footsteps of the soldiers running with all their strength were getting closer and closer, as long as he held on for a few more minutes, he should be able to repel these damn guys.

At this time, a jet-black feather arrow shot at Ryan from outside the walls of the Thor Fortress, and Ryan patronized to check the enemy's situation, but did not notice the sneak attack, and was shot by the feather arrow without any suspense. With the passage of the jet-black feather arrow, Ryan's last mirror image shattered. Ryan was shocked, he hurriedly looked along the place where the feather arrow came from, but he didn't find out who shot it, so he could only estimate the approximate location and recite a fireball spell.

However, Ryan's spell was not finished, and another jet-black feathered arrow slashed through the dark night sky and shot at Ryan without a sound. The jet-black arrow shaft completely merged into the dark night, and only the sound of the arrow when it broke through the air caught Ryan's attention, but it was too late, and under the watchful eye, the jet-black feather arrow was about to hit Ryan's chest.

At this moment, a thick layer of stone skin appeared on Ryan's body, which was his instinctive protective magic, and this stone skin technique also saved Ryan's life. The black feather arrow slammed into Ryan's stone skin, centered on the impact point, and the entire stone skin was filled with thick cracks in an instant, and Ryan's chest hurt, and his body staggered backwards and retreated rapidly, and fell to the ground all of a sudden.

Ryan was lying on the cold ground, a sharp pain in his chest, he didn't know how badly he was hurt, but Ryan held back the pain and desperately got up. Alan Doren knelt beside Ryan, grabbed Ryan's hand, and then pressed his hand on Ryan's chest a few times, and whispered, "It's really lucky, that arrow didn't go in!"

Ryan gritted his teeth desperately in pain at the moment, and two words almost popped out from between his teeth: "Morale!" Allendo immediately understood, he helped Ryan to stand up, and shouted loudly: "Ryan magician is fine, kill all these despicable guys!"

The human soldiers and mercenaries saw with their own eyes that the feathered arrow shot Ryan to the ground, many people thought that Ryan was attacked by the orcs and had been killed on the spot, but Ryan quickly stood up again with the support of his companions, and on closer inspection, Ryan's chest, which should have been shot through, was not bloodstained.

Ryan knew that there must be no show of weakness at this time, he clenched his teeth tightly, resisted the sharp pain in his chest, and silently recited the spell of the fireball technique. I have to admit that after the chest wound, the severe pain did affect Ryan's spell casting, and it took a full ten seconds for Ryan to complete this fireball technique, which usually only takes 2 or 3 seconds to complete.

"Boom!" Another wooden ladder was blown up by Ryan's fireball technique, and the spreading magic flames swept several orcs carrying the wooden ladder into it. And this magic has once again boosted the morale of the human defenders, the magician is fine, he is still supporting us, what could be more exhilarating than this?

Originally, the 5,000 human forces could not fully take care of the entire defense line in defense, but fortunately, with Ryan's magical support, they were able to maximize morale and let everyone fight bravely to kill the enemy, and even transferred some humans around Ryan to support other weak places. After Lane was attacked by orc archers, the already unstable defense line of humans immediately showed signs of collapse, and orcs had already climbed onto the city walls in many places and began hand-to-hand combat.

Unexpectedly, Ryan was not injured in this sneak attack, which definitely hit those orc warriors hard, and also greatly inspired the human defenders. Alendor asked Xiaobai to guard Ryan's side, and he took the "sharp claw" and rushed towards the orc warriors who climbed up with a long roar.

Allendo didn't transform, but his speed in his humanoid state was surprising enough. The sharp steel claws blocked the orc's wielding weapon, and then stabbed the orc's vital point, bringing up a streak of blood mist, and before the orc had fallen, Elendor had quickly left and ran to the next enemy. When the second enemy was killed by Allendo, the previous orc corpse fell straight to the ground. And Ryan also released magic missiles from time to time to assist Allendo, after all, the canines and teeth on the city walls are intertwined, and it is really difficult to accurately calculate and grasp the power of the fireball technique. In addition, the power of Ryan's self-created "Missile Burst" magic should not be underestimated, and it can kill several people at the same time.

Thanks to the efforts of Ryan and Elendor, the human defenders near them drove down all the orc soldiers who had stormed the walls. However, at this moment, more orc soldiers in other places had climbed up, and seeing that the situation was critical, Ryan covered his chest with one hand and said to Allendo in a muffled voice: "One person on the side!"

Before Allendo could reply, they heard footsteps louder than before, and a large group of human pikemen and sword and shield soldiers rushed up the walls, and a majestic voice shouted, "Lord, boys, drive these green-skinned bastards down!"

The pikemen and sword and shield bearers lined up in a very tacit formation of 12 people, with the first two rows of six sword and shield soldiers holding their shields aloft, and the last two rows of spear-wielding warriors.

The sword and shield warrior raised his shield to form a shield wall, and slowly pressed towards the orcs who climbed up, and the orcs picked up their axes and slashed at them fiercely, but they could only hit the shield. And the spear warrior behind the sword and shield warrior can stab the spear in his hand hard, and give the orc a heart-chilling cold.

The huge numerical superiority of human reinforcements quickly cleared the city walls, suppressing the sneak attack orcs back under the walls. When nearly 30,000 human soldiers stood on the edge of the wall, the entire defense line became impregnable, and with the 10,000 archers that followed, and the overwhelming rain of arrows, the humans had taken control of the situation.

When the last orc was shot to the ground by a dozen feathered arrows, this night attack of the orcs was a complete failure. I have to say that the time chosen by the orcs is very good, if it is earlier, it is difficult to sneak so close, after all, they will have to wait until the sun sets before they can set off, and they must be careful along the way, the arrow forest and corpses on the ground, and the detection of humans will also restrict their forward speed. A little later, that is, at midnight, when the defense is usually the worst, it is the period when the defenders of Thor's fortress are the most heavily defended.

But in any case, the orc's plan failed, and the 5,000 warriors of the human night vigil unexpectedly held out until the arrival of reinforcements, which surprised both sides. General Clark quickly learned the details of the situation, and understood that the greatest hero of the evening was the young magician in front of him.

"You're the mercenary who went deep into the Beast Blood Castle?" As the commander of the front line, General Clark certainly knew a lot of things.

"Hehe, yes, that's what I did with my friends. Ryan rubbed his chest lightly and replied.

Seeing this, General Clark asked with concern, "What's wrong with your chest?" Would you like to find someone to treat it?"

Before Ryan could answer, a mercenary next to him interjected with the black feathered arrow and said, "Hey, General." Ryan had just been hit by an arrow in battle, but it was amazing, he didn't have anything to do with it!"

"Huh?" General Clark was taken aback as he looked at the thumb-thick feathered arrow in the mercenary's hand, and then at Ryan. The latter was only wearing ordinary linen clothes, and it was absolutely impossible for him to wear any armor with strong defensive power, how could he actually defend against that kind of feather arrow, could it be said that this was the power of a magician?

"Report to the General!" a squad leader quickly walked up to General Clark and reported loudly, "The results of the battle have been counted." Our troops lost 1,733 killed, 676 seriously wounded, and 1,810 lightly wounded. The Orc Sneak Attack Force numbered about 5,000 people, and due to the darkness, the exact data may not be available until after dawn. ”

General Clark was silent, this night watch force was basically disabled, but they could withstand the attack of a similar number of orcs, maybe they could discuss with General Kissernst, let this army become an independent army, maybe after the replenishment and training of soldiers, they could train an elite again.

Although according to General Clark's knowledge, this improvised patchwork force was able to block the orc's attack because of Lane, but as a general who commanded tens of thousands of troops, General Clark thought that maybe in a battle of a few people or a dozen people, the magician's magic could occupy a certain advantage, but in the fight of thousands or even tens of thousands of soldiers, what use could a small magician play, could he still release the forbidden spell? If the victory or defeat of the battle depends on the magicians, what else do they need these soldiers to do?

However, some superficial things still need to be done, and General Clark said to Ryan: "In recognition of your merits, you can make your own requests. As long as I can, I can satisfy you. ”

Almost immediately, Ryan began to reply, "My friend and I have asked to join the first line of the army and do our best to defend against the orc attack. ”

General Clark didn't expect Ryan to make such a request, he thought it would be a demand for money or some kind of power at most. "This ......" General Clark hesitated for a moment, and after careful consideration, he finally made up his mind, there were only a few people anyway, and in this situation, it was more appropriate to agree to Ryan's request than to refuse.

"Okay. Ryan, you and your friends go and get some rest, you will be my warriors from tomorrow onwards. ”
