Chapter Thirty-Seven: Ten Thousand Ravines and Thousands of Vines
At dawn, the Duo army finally retreated!
Everyone's hearts were suddenly relieved!
Only Qin Yu, remembering what Zhang Yi said last night, his heart was like a sea of waves rolling, and he couldn't be calm!
"According to the records of the war, the country of Duo has always gathered troops but not attacked, and only one young general provoked and fought in front of the city, so I speculate that the intention of the country of Duo was not to capture the city of Deserted Hills, but more like the experience of this young general, and he is likely to be a descendant of the royal family. ”
Zhang Yi's words echoed in Qin Yu's ears, and at first glance, these words were indeed a bit absurd.
However, now it seems that what Zhang Yi said last night, unfortunately, killed the blue wolf with a wild knife, and the country of Duo came to take revenge!
Barren Hill City is bound to usher in a bloody storm!
Immediately, Qin Yu's heart was shocked again, and he remembered another sentence that Zhang Yi said last night.
"As far as I can see, for more than a hundred years, Jiuhua Sect has not interfered, this time suddenly came to help, I am afraid that there is another hidden situation, all this must be instigated by someone behind the scenes, and the barren hill city will be in chaos!"
If it is really as Zhang Yi said, who is behind this scene?
I remembered what Tian Geng whispered to himself before leaving: "I have been divining for several days, and I can count that if I go to Barren Hill City, there will be a danger, you have to be careful." ”
The city of Barren Hill is strong, and after this battle, it will be even more vigilant, if the country of Duo wants to raid and take the city, it has become a delusion, if it is attacked, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, I am afraid it is not an easy thing.
In this case, what is the danger that Tian Geng said?
As the master said before, the changes in Jiuhua Sect began with Huiwu. Now that the Nine Veins Martial Arts has ended, and the ten outstanding disciples are all in Barren Hill City, will the changes in the Nine Hua Sect mentioned by the master begin in Barren Hill City?
Is there a connection between the change of Jiuhuazong and the mastermind behind the scenes that Zhang Yi said?
If so, could it be said that the mastermind behind the scenes would be someone from the Jiuhua Sect?
A series of questions surfaced in Qin Yu's mind one after another.
Suddenly, a mammoth roar was heard in the distance, and the roar was rolling, like thunder and roaring, shaking the eardrums.
Then, he saw a hill-like mammoth elephant, slowly walking out of the camp of the Duo army.
Soon after, the mammoth was only a hundred feet away from the city gates, and everyone finally saw its full appearance.
I saw that the mammoth giant elephant was more than three zhang tall and nearly five zhang long, and its body was extremely strong, like a moving hill. There was a hint of cruelty and ferocity in the big door-like eyes. The huge elephant trunk, which is more than three feet long and as thick as a human body, is hard to imagine what terrifying power it contains. The two tusks were more than a foot long, like giant spears, shimmering with a metallic coldness.
On the top of the mammoth elephant's broad head, there was a wooden pavilion, in which a gray-robed and thin old man could be faintly seen.
Everyone in Barren Hill City was amazed, and if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, it would have been hard to imagine that there was such a huge mammoth.
The mammoth roared again, and the violently vibrating sound waves actually set off a wave of air in the air and swept away. All the soldiers in the city could not stand such a huge deafening roar, and they blocked their ears with their hands. Qin Yu and the others couldn't bear it, and they all sealed their ears with their true qi.
The roar echoed through the valley and gradually subsided.
"General Wei, who is sitting on that giant elephant?" asked Ba Dao, even as the head of the Sword Peak, his cultivation was already on the throne, and he felt a little uneasy in his heart at this moment.
"I don't know, Ben will guard Barren Hill City for decades, and he has never seen the Duo army dispatch a mammoth giant elephant, let alone the wizened old man!" Wei Zhennan was also a little frightened at the moment.
Badao's face was slightly gloomy, so it seemed that the country of Duo was really going to capture this barren hill city.
It was at this moment that the wizened old man on the mammoth finally moved.
I saw him stand up slowly, his hands folded, and his cloudy eyes suddenly burst out with a wisp of essence, exuding a strong strange fluctuation.
"He's preparing a powerful spell!"
Lian Meng said, as a cultivator, she could feel the powerful spiritual power fluctuations on the old man's body!
Hearing what the dream said, Wei Zhennan's face suddenly changed: "Oops, it's the great witch of the country of Duo!"
Everyone looked shocked, wizard, that is, the name of the barbarian land in the southwest of Barren Hill City for people who can manipulate the power of heaven and earth with spiritual power, in a sense, it is also another name for a sorcerer.
In the barbarian land of the southwest, wizards are synonymous with nobility and mystery, and they are even called people who can communicate with beast gods.
And the Great Witch is equivalent to the powerful existence of a spiritual magician!
"Ten thousand ravines and thousands of vines!"
The old man drank heavily, and his whole body was shrouded in a rich green light, and then he levitated down and fell to the ground, his hands separated, his body squatted, and the five fingers of his right hand were opened, and he slapped to the ground suddenly.
The green light rushed towards the old man's right hand like a river bursting its banks, and disappeared into the earth.
The next moment, the earth under the city suddenly swelled, as if something was wriggling violently under the soil, and immediately, countless green rays suddenly shot out of the dirt.
The green light dissipated, and what appeared in front of everyone was a vine as thick as a bucket!
Countless vines grew wildly, as hard as steel, sloping towards the city, and the high wall of dozens of zhang was covered with vines in an instant, and the color of the city wall could not be seen.
Between the city and the ground, a vine path suddenly formed!
Everyone was shocked, and it was unimaginable that such a huge project was the result of only one person's efforts.
"Not good!"
Wei Zhennan shouted in a lost voice, in this way, the high walls of the fortified city that the existence of Barren Hill City has relied on for hundreds of years are no longer of any use, and the army of the Duo Kingdom can follow the road paved with vines to the head of the city!
"Quick! cut off the vines!" Wei Zhennan ordered.
However, the tenacity of the vines was beyond everyone's imagination, and no matter how hard the defenders slashed, they could only leave a shallow gap on their bodies. Even if Qin Yu and the others worked hard, they could only cut off a few of them, which was just a drop in the bucket for the vines that spread all over the city wall.
Kill!...... Kill!............
The earth-shattering shouts of killing came from among the Duo army, and tens of thousands of Duo soldiers poured out like a tide, stepping on the vines, walking on the ground, and killing directly towards the city!
"Burn it with fire!" Wei Zhennan roared.
Torches, rockets, and oil bottles rained down on the vines, but they couldn't let them ignite the slightest flame, and ordinary fires were ineffective.
At this time, the Duo army had reached the middle of the vine path, and it was still half way to attack the city.
The situation is critical!
"The pyromancer casts a spell to burn the vines, the archers all shoot, and the other soldiers are ready to fight at any time, be sure to stop the Duo army outside the city and buy time for the pyrotechnics!" Wei Zhennan ordered, the sudden change did not make him panic when he had been stationed in Barren Hill City for decades, but gave the most correct order in time.
Thousands of arrows rained down, and the incoming Duo army suddenly suffered a large number of casualties, but it still couldn't stop the Duo army from rushing.
All the fire magicians in the barren hill city have gathered on the city wall, and they have shown their best fire skills, and for a while, the fire is everywhere, illuminating the inside and outside of the city wall!
The fire was fierce, the color of the vines gradually changed from blue to black, and several vines had already ignited sparks. Although it worked, the speed was extremely slow, and it was only a drop in the bucket for the ten thousand vines that spread all over the city walls.
At this time, the vanguard of the Duo army had rushed to the head of the city, and although it was easily annihilated by the defenders, the follow-up army was about to pour into the city in large numbers.
"Defend Wasteland City to the death!"
All the generals shouted.
"Defend Wasteland City to the death!"
All the soldiers shouted, and the sound shook the sky!
"Kill!"
The whole army roared in unison, and the momentum was monstrous!
In the next moment, a large number of Duo soldiers armed with meniscus knives poured to the head of the city, hand-to-hand combat, Jin Ge intersected, and the sound of swords colliding was endless. Blood was spilled, severed heads were thrown, and screams of casualties continued.
burst
As soon as a Duo soldier rushed to the top of the city, before he could make any movement, he was stabbed in the throat by a sudden spear, the blade of the spear was pulled out, and a stream of blood suddenly spurted out, his breath was instantly cut off, and his body fell to the bottom of the city.
Qiang ......
There was a crunch of swords clashing, and the sword shook, and the scimitar continued to slash across the chest of the soldier defending the city, and the armor was torn, leaving a wound of flesh and blood that was deep and bone-deep. But seeing that his eyes were red, his mouth was full of shouting, and the long sword in his hand suddenly stabbed back, and with the last of his strength, he pierced the sword into the heart of the enemy.
Kill!
More than a dozen Duo soldiers shouted in unison, rushed to the city wall together, waving their scimitars, throwing their heads down, and at the cost of ten lives, the rest of the Duo army finally climbed the city wall and occupied a three-foot radius. The follow-up priest army took advantage of this open gap and rushed towards the city.
......
Similar plots are repeated in every corner of the city.
At this moment, there are already a lot of Duo army troops who have gained a firm foothold on the city wall, and the battlefield is gradually moving towards the barren hill city!
The number of Duo troops killed seemed to be endless, undiminished, and as far as the eye could see, there were as many people as locusts and ants, which could not help but make people feel a little desperate.
Under the city, many wolf cavalry have been assembled, and the war wolves roared and rushed towards the city.
Wei Zhennan let out a lament, his eyes revealing a little despair, and said: "The soldiers of the Duo army are brave and good at fighting, and our army is invincible. The tide is coming, and it's only a matter of time before Wastehill City is lost. The Barren Hill City is broken, and I have no shame to return to see the king, so I will die with the Barren Hill City! If you are surrounded by the Duo army, you may be in danger. ”
"If we and the eleven of us listen to the general's dispatch, the general may retreat from the enemy?" asked in a deep voice.
Wei Zhennan shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The strength of the first seat, among the ten thousand armies, no one can be defeated, and ten disciples of the Jiuhua Sect can also defeat one thousand." There are more than 10 million of the army of Keduo. In large-scale clan battles, individual strength is not enough to change the tide of battle. Unless you can get rid of these vines, nothing will be done!"
At this time, no one paid attention, and Butterfly Dance's face changed, as if she was struggling with something. Suddenly, Butterfly Dance looked straight, as if she had made up her mind, and said, "Maybe I can try."
