The Emerald Court.

Under the active coordination of the Emerald Lake and the Golden Shield Empire's envoy group, the first batch of support materials from the Golden Shield Empire arrived at Emerald Harbor and was immediately disposed of properly. The royal court patrol set up a number of distribution points along the city's roads, and refugees who had escaped from the forest lined up to receive daily necessities.

Blankets, clothing, coal stoves, pots, buckets......

Some coals and oats, potatoes, dehydrated vegetables.

Kids can get extra canned cheese and meat.

The refugees waiting to receive the supplies waited anxiously for the distribution while carefully looking at the sky and surroundings.

The sky is a chaotic battlefield. The headhunters relied on the large number of flying mantis to seize the air superiority, and the hunters who were not afraid of death frequently rode the flying mantis to carry out suicide attacks, and they attacked inward from the outer edge of the city in groups, and sent some of the hunters into the city after paying most of the losses.

The Emerald Court erected simple magic towers and arrow towers on the city's tall buildings, using magic, bows and arrows, and muskets to eliminate invading hunters. In addition, some royal court patrols were set up as urban mobile forces, using hawk eyes and hounds to hunt down hunters who slipped through the net.

Magic, arrows, and bullets weave through the air, and hunters and praying mantis rain down.

But even with such a tight defense, there are still inhabitants who die at the hands of invading hunters, especially those who are exceptionally powerful, and the royal court patrols will pay considerable losses if they want to destroy them.

Hunger makes refugees risk leaving shelters, they just want to get their stuff as quickly as possible and go back to hiding.

During this period, the royal court patrol also sent more soldiers to guard the high places to cover the distribution of supplies. Owls fly low, hounds patrol the alleys of secluded streets, and griffons and pegasus knights do their best to protect the harbor and the city's key points.

Every elf is fighting their best, and many Terrans and residents of other races have joined the battle to defend the Emerald Court.

The arrival of aid from the Golden Shield Empire brought hope to them who were already in despair.

Outside the city, the headhunters had already completed the encirclement of the Emerald Court from the land.

The fire ordered by the Clover King to buy the most precious time for the forest elves. The elven mages took advantage of the time they had gained to build a thorny wall outside the city and hundreds of smaller fortresses.

It was these defenses that allowed the forest elves to use the open land burned by the fire to withstand the initial attack of the headhunters. Although there are more and more reinforcements from the headhunters in the back, the city defense of the Jade Court is also becoming more and more perfect.

Now all the factories in the Jade Court have been transferred to wartime management, and the alchemy puppets have been assembled and put into the battlefield in large numbers, which has greatly relieved the pressure on the patrols.

The ships seized at the beginning of the war are rescuing the forest elves from the coast and returning to the Emerald Court. Adult elves are being drafted, and patrolling armies are training in a hurry.

The headhunters missed the best opportunity to break through the Emerald Court.

As the commander of the headhunters responsible for attacking the Emerald Court, the hunting king Nilteye was very angry.

Inside a hunter's shell on the front line, Nirtye and several other hunting kings discuss how to attack the Emerald Court. The Hunt King consists of two elves, a unicorn and a forest python, both of whom are in awe of the Angel of Hunt, Niltye, who has regained the Empress's favor.

Nirtye confronted the forest python, "Isn't it possible to open the tunnels that lead to the inner court of the royal court?" ”

The forest python crossed his body and replied with a letter, "The forest elves have very accurate means of detecting the underground, and once the passage we dig is discovered, it will be attacked by seismic. Many of my subordinates died, but the Empress was unwilling to conceive new ones with me. ”

The forest python is full of resentment, and since the empress has had a unicorn, she rarely touches herself again. Later, there were angels, and they drove themselves out of the nest. Now that his subordinates have died so much and have not been replaced, he has no status.

Nirtye said proudly: "In the face of the Emerald Palace, a fortified city with sufficient troops and a defense system, you hunters who are not strong enough to ...... It is somewhat wasteful to be cannon fodder, and it is useless to act as the main force.

The only ones who are qualified to fight for Her Majesty the Empress are my angel hunters!

Cultivating and killing angels consumes a lot of money on Your Majesty, but fortunately, I have served Your Majesty day and night, and I have given birth to a new batch of hunting angels. This time, I brought them all here, and I will definitely be able to conquer the Emerald Court for Your Majesty and occupy the entire Emerald Forest. ”

Niltye didn't know why the corpse of the elf Clear Sky that he had personally sent to the Empress had suddenly disappeared, but it was an indisputable fact that he had regained the Empress's favor. In the past few days, he has served the empress every day to reproduce, and he really made the other hunting kings jealous to death.

At this time, Niltye's expression almost said, "You are all rubbish!" "Said it.

Nirtye's pride aroused the displeasure of the other hunting kings, but they did not dare to show it.

One of the king hunting elves then said, "King Nirtye...... After our aerial reconnaissance, it was discovered that a fleet of ships from the Golden Shield Empire had arrived in Emerald Harbor. The fleet brought a lot of supplies, which greatly increased the combat effectiveness and morale of the forest elves.

If we don't launch a decisive attack soon, the Emerald Court will become more and more difficult to fight. ”

Niltje finally turned his mind back to the war.

"If you don't say it, I also know that the Golden Shield Empire's aid has reached the Jade Royal Court, which is why I rushed here from the Empress's lair." Nirtye waved his hand, and magic illuminated a map of the Emerald Court. There are five attack points around the Emerald Court, the frontal attack group has the Angel standard, and the other four attack groups are Elves, Elves, Unicorns, and Forest Pythons from left to right. "Immediately after the meeting, you will take your men to the attack position, where the army of hunters assigned to you has been assembled. Early tomorrow morning, you will launch an all-out attack on the Emerald Royal Court's defense line from four directions, attracting the defensive forces to your side as much as possible.

It's noon...... I will lead the hunting angels to break through the depth of the Jade Royal Court under the cover of the Flying Mantis. As long as the Hunting Angel rushes through the frontal defense, it will be our hunting ground after entering the city.

Your mission is to contain the main forces of the Emerald Court, and not let them turn back to rescue the city.

Do you get it! ”

The eyes of the four hunting kings widened.

Understood, very understood!

Isn't it just that we send us to death, and you ask Her Majesty for credit?

But so what?

People are now the king of pets!

However, the forest python still couldn't help but feel sorry for himself: "King Niltye Yee, why is my attack zone next to the Emerald Magic Academy?" If I attack the Emerald Court with all my might, the Emerald Magic Academy will be able to attack my flank. ”

"Are you, a low-level creature who has just gained a little intelligence and doesn't even have a name, have the right to question my command?" Niltye stared at the forest python and said angrily: "Putting you in any direction will not bring a positive improvement to the battle situation, only here is the best for you." Watch the Emerald Magic Academy, don't let it mess with me in the decisive battle, that's the only value you have left in this war! ”

"Yes, yes, at your command, King Nirtye." The forest python was frightened and craned its neck, not daring to complain any more.

Nirtye glanced at the forest python with contempt, and then looked at the other hunting kings with the same eyes: "Do you have any objections? ”

"No, King Nirtyeh."

……

The next day, Emerald Harbor Pier.

Rossetti Orne was a former guard officer at the Crucifixion Tribulus Armor Factory, but was recruited by Luke to serve as the commander of the War Machines of the CIA Einsatzgruppen. At the time of the formation of the Angry Waves Armored Assault Division, the War Machinery Special Operations Team "Iron Ambition" led by Orn was formed.

Throughout the Northern War, Orn performed extremely well, putting his talent at piloting war machines to good use. The "Iron Ambition Squad's" ability to dominate the battlefield also shows Orn's side as an excellent commander of war machines.

The Northern War was a phased truce, and the Angry Waves Armored Assault Division returned to Angry Waves to rest. Orn was then tasked by Luke with the task of forming the Commando Division's Wizard Titan Squadron on the basis of the "Iron Ambition Squad".

However, since the research and development of the Magic Titan is not yet over, they can only use the Steam Titan for the transition.

Orn served as the instructor of both the Royal First Wizard Regiment and the Royal Second Wizard Regiment's Steam Titan Lesson Brigade, and was the commander of the Emerald King's Court Steam Titan Regiment this time.

The Steam Titans are tasked with protecting the ships of the Golden Shield Empire that have entered the Emerald Harbor, guarding the supplies that have not yet been handed over to the forest elves.

From the moment they boarded the Emerald Harbor docks, these tall Steam Titans were constantly being pointed at from all sides.

Mighty is absolutely mighty.

As soon as the five-meter-high steel machinery stood there, it had a strong sense of oppression. Not to mention the sound of walking, as well as the vibration of the ground.

As for the combat effectiveness of this big guy, it was doubted by many elven patrolmen.

Anyone who has ever seen a war machine can see that this is a fully enclosed war machine. Thickened armor, while providing reliable protection for the driver, is a great burden on the entire powertrain.

If you can't run in war, it's a living coffin, and the enemy has a way of killing the driver behind the armor.

In the eyes of the elves, a war machine is not a flexible weapon, let alone a taller and thicker thing.

Ornamental is greater than practical.

This is the elves' first impression of the Steam Titan.

Rossetti Orn didn't let his men maneuver in order to show off his strength to the elves. Once such a heavy guy runs, the damage to the ground is too great, and if the entire dock is stepped on in potholes, it will affect the speed of subsequent materials and personnel.

The members of the Steam Titans stick to the docks, trying not to move around as much as possible, and spend their free time watching the battle in the sky.

The headhunters' flying mantis flew like a cloud, and the firepower net of magic, arrows, and bullets on the ground was harvested layer by layer. Sometimes, the royal court patrols would release large groups of alchemy projectiles to rush into the formation of the flying mantis. If a headhunter approaches the docks, Pegasus and griffons guarding the docks will immediately rise into the air and fight to the death under the cover of ground fire.

In general, it is difficult for headhunters to threaten the port.

Occasionally, the lucky ones who fly up, or some stealthy hunters come close to wreak havoc, will be quickly eliminated by the royal court patrols guarding the area.

Orn came to Emerald Harbor for four days and killed only one headhunter. It was a stalker who thought it had escaped the patrol's Hawkeye and Hound, but was nowhere to be seen in the Steam Titan's Dopp Wizard vision.

The poor creature sneaked up to the Steam-Titan that Orn was driving, and was cut in two by Orn and kicked into the sea.

I don't know if I can meet the unlucky guy again today.

Orn steered the Steam Titan in front of a docked cargo ship, looking up at the sky not far away.

Today's headhunters are attacking very fiercely, and they should have been replenished by troops.

From the ground, it can be clearly seen that a flying mantis not only has a hunter on its back, but also three or four hunters hanging under its paws. Such a load makes the flying mantis fly very low, and it also increases the chance of survival for the fallen hunter.

A group of flying praying mantis was wiped out, and a group flew like a dark cloud.

The hunters are not afraid of death or loss, and they rush one after another like a tidal wave. Gradually, the defenders' magic energy reserves, arrows, and ammunition were weakened under this attrition, and the headhunters' attacks were getting closer and closer to the city.

The number of hunters appearing near the harbor increased rapidly, and the royal court patrols guarding the harbor went around to remedy it.

Sirens sounded in the city, and then more and more directions sounded the alarms.

Smoke from the fire rose from all directions, as if the Emerald Court had fallen.

"Commander Orn!" The experimental communicator sent the voices of his subordinates to Orn's cockpit: "It doesn't look good inside the Emerald Court, are we going to attack to support the royal court patrols?" ”

Orn gathered as much external information as he could through the Steam Titan's sensory system, and replied to his men, "We know too little about the inside of the Emerald Court, and Madame Mihir has given us the duty to guard the Empire's ships. If the Emerald Court is truly breached by the Headhunters, we must receive Lady Mihir's emissary and our crew to leave safely.

As Imperial soldiers, we have not received a notice from the Empire to enter the war, so do not participate in wars that do not belong to us.

Hold your position and protect our crew from the ship...... Soldiers! ”

"Yes, Commander Orn!"

The crew of the Golden Shield Empire ran towards their respective ships, some of which were leaving the docks and heading out of the harbor.

Orn looked into the distance through the eyes of the Steam Titan, and saw more than he could see with a high field of vision. He saw hunters falling from the sky attacking the harbor, and elven patrols fighting them. Many of the forest elves who had met but had not spoken died in this way, their heads cut off and their waists tied to the waist by the hunters.

I really want to kill it!

Silent communication channel, Orn could feel the voices of everyone wanting to fight.

"Colonel Rossetti Orn, this is the super-heavy steam airship 'Kirov', please answer if you receive it!"

"Kirov" super-heavy steam airship!

Orn immediately replied: "I'm Colonel Rossetti Orn, may I ask if Shousuke-sama is not there?" ”

Meteor's voice appeared on the communication channel: "Orn, I saw that the Emerald Court is under fierce attack, and a part of the headhunters have invaded the city, what is the situation on your side?" ”

"Hello Shousuke-sama!" Orn turned around and saw a steam airship spewing white smoke heading towards the Emerald Court at full speed, and he immediately happily reported to Luke: "The Steam Titan Lesson in Angry Waves is on a mission to protect the evacuation of Imperial ships from the port area. There are a total of 625 Steam Titans in the regiment, of which 150 are stationed on ships, 32 are under repair, and 443 Steam Titans are all stationed at the docks. ”

"Let the Steam Titans stationed on the ship go ashore to take over the garrison, and you immediately lead the Steam Titan Lesson to support 20 degrees south-east, advancing 300 meters in front and 600 meters behind. I see angelic hunters over there, shoot them back, and the Kirov will provide you with air cover. ”

"Obey, Shousuke-sama." Upon receiving the order to attack, Orn was delighted. Looking at the sky again, the Kirov airship came very fast, and the shark pattern on the bow of the ship was already clearly visible. Orn switched to the regimental command channel: "The Steam Titan of Angry Waves City listens to the order!" ”

"Yes! Captain Rossetti Orn! ”

"On the orders of Lord Meteor, the Empire's first assistant! The Steam Titan Lesson Regiment of Raging Waves City immediately entered the Emerald Court to defend the battle. The ship's personnel disembarked to take over the defense, and the other combatants followed me into the city to participate in the battle!

Raging Waves Steam Titan Lessons......

Sortie! ”

Orn's Steam Titan draws his sword from his back, and all the Steam Titans on the shore draw their swords together. The power of the steam engine increased and sprayed white smoke outward, and the mechanical legs used force to smash the stone bricks under their feet, and the steam titans ran together. They slammed open the crates that stood in front of them, knocked down the walls that stood in front of them, and rushed into the city with their feet shaking on the earth.
