Chapter 259: Why Are There So Many A-Rank Heroes In This Territory? I'm not convinced! 5000 words in two chapters
The city of Dusk, which is only a third-level small city, actually does not occupy a large area.
When an army of tens of thousands of kobolds came around, the entire city was immediately blocked.
Stand above the city walls and look out.
On the long yellow sand, the moonlight shone on the kobold army.
Countless green eyes emerged in the dimness.
Even if you are a veteran of a hundred battles, you will have an indescribable sense of fear when you see this kind of scene.
Woo woo woo~
The long horn sounded round after round.
The breath of slaughter pierced the night sky.
The atmosphere was as solemn as ice.
Inside the city, the residents who had already entered the house were looking at the city wall through the windows in the dark.
The candles made of grease in the house had long since been extinguished.
When fighting at night, the house is lit up, but it is easy to become a target for the enemy.
This is what they learn in literacy classes, which not only teach literacy, but also impart practical knowledge.
The eyes of the residents were resolute like never before.
Many of them still have rudimentary weapons in their hands, and they are silently recounting their choices.
They will never leave the lord alone to fight, and will rush down to fight the enemy as soon as the need arises.
Scared?
Of course I'm afraid, but, so what?!
Even if it is death, they will not hide from it!
Fighting to the death for the city of twilight, they are willing!!
They, fighting for what they believe in!!
When the enemy's shouts of killing are heard.
All began to pray at this moment, for the City of Twilight, for the Great Lord, and for themselves.
The will of the people.
Richard had now returned to the City of Dusk from the Land of Quicksand.
After removing the hidden power, the figure appeared on the ← wall to the west.
He stood at the very center, with the city gate below.
In siege warfare, the city gate is often the area where the battle is most intense.
If the attacking side can capture the gate, then the geographical advantage of the defending side will no longer exist.
Richard looked into the distance.
In the light of the moon, kobold soldiers with their bloody mouths wide open and sharp fangs baring were rapidly approaching the city walls.
He smelled the awe-inspiring murderous intrigue.
The war began.
Waved.
"Sand archers prepare!"
On this wall, a squadron of sand archers all pulled the bowstrings at this moment.
Babbling~ The sound of the bowstring tightening came into the ears, making people's mood suddenly tense.
Looking at the rapidly approaching enemy, Richard's eyes burned.
This was the first time he had commanded a battle to defend the city.
His enemies are the players, the heroes, the regular army that believes in the gods.
It's a completely different feeling than facing a chaotic attack in the field.
In the moment when the enemy approaches a certain tipping point.
"Attack!"
A cold snort.
Bang~
The bowstring cracked.
Arrows made of condensed sand tore through the sky and fell.
Whew~
A kobold soldier who charged forward and roared wildly in his throat only felt a pain in his skull, and lost consciousness in an instant.
Puff~
Plasma splattered like a tap bursting.
The companion next to him turned his head to look, only to see a special arrow piercing its head.
Seeing this horrific scene, it did not have the slightest fear, but the cruelty in its heart was stimulated.
Roaring violently to the sky, the speed suddenly increased.
As the first kobold warrior fell, the Boom ~ arrows rained down.
Kobolds were crucified to the ground.
The smell of blood filled the air.
The charging kobold's eyes gradually became bloodshot, and the green tendons on his body burst even more.
Again, the speed sped up a bit.
The sand archers seemed to be speeding up, and as soon as the last arrow was fired, the bowstring was pulled again.
Shoot 30 arrows in a row in 10 seconds.
Woo Woo Woo ~ The arrows are like the scythes of death, reaping the lives of the enemy under the moonlight.
By the time the kobold rushed to the bottom of the walls, the ground behind him was already full of corpses.
The kobolds did not carry any siege weapons.
As they rushed beneath the walls, they slammed out their claws with claws that could pierce their armor.
Then the soldiers slammed their hands and feet up the walls like geckos.
When the rare-level Deadman's Axe stationed above saw this scene, the battle axe in his hand immediately threw out condescendingly.
The attack range of the Rare Dead Axe is 30 meters, which is not as good as the 60 meters of the Brilliant level.
But it was more than enough to deal with the kobolds lying on the city walls.
Call~
Tomahawks whistling.
Although the kobold is agile, he is lying on the city wall at this time and can only dodge very limitedly.
Some of those who didn't react were directly slashed, and the blood splattered instantly.
Even if you don't die, you will fall from the city wall, and you will directly lose the threat.
Without a ranged attack, this army of kobolds who played the vanguard was like an egg crashing into the wall.
One by one was broken, not to mention the capture of the city wall, even to the top of the city wall, there were few people.
Chris, the leader of the Secret Society who was in charge of the command in the rear and a player who had reached level 8, was inexplicably relieved to see this.
"There is no quicksand under the walls."
The big loss he just suffered at the hands of that tree man boss made him still scared now.
Once you get the information you want
Looking at the B-class kobold hero wearing full-body armor beside him, the general he was proud of, his eyes were cold.
"Oak, you lead three large armies to press up and capture the city!"
"At the same time, order the other three armies to attack immediately, create pressure, and disperse the opponent's forces."
Even if half of the army was devoured by that boss, he still had an absolute numerical advantage in his hands.
This territory is only this large, and it is impossible for the army to die more than two thousand.
He now has 10,000 people, and there are more than 4 brigades of rare arms.
The anger in the heart of the ancient tree of sin was vented to the player's territory in front of him at this moment.
"After the capture of the city, slaughter the city, not a single one will be left!!"
Sen's cold tone made everyone angry.
Kobolds have always behaved in this way, often killing everyone after plundering caravans.
Chris knew that his actions would surely win the admiration of the kobold god.
After being in the dark dungeon for so long, he already knew what kind of character that god was.
"Yes!!"
The kobold hero and several players in front of him immediately left with their own army.
Get started.
Woo woo woo~
After the second horn sounded, Richard's eyes froze.
The kobolds' army began to go on a rampage.
The mighty army crossed like locusts.
Along with the trumpets of the ← to the west, the other three directions of the City of Dusk also sounded at the same time.
After a simple temptation, the opponent directly launched a general attack.
No hands were spared
To the north↑, Gray garrisons with 72 Bandage Mummies and 65 Scorpion Warriors, plus 100 Sand Archers and 60 Brilliant Axes of the Dead.
To the east of →, Sheena is stationed with 175 Sand Mages, 100 Sand Archers, and 200 Guardian Mummies.
To the south↓, Gaunt is garrisoned with 150 Guardian Mummies and 200 Rare Dead's Axes, and 35 Cursed Pharaohs.
Richard garrisoned the western ← of the city with 100 sand archers, 100 rare axes of the dead, 20 heavy sword warriors, and 3 bone demons.
In the city, 200 dark gargoyles are ready to respond to the four directions.
Outside the city, in the Land of Quicksand, there are 30 skeletal blood dragons led by Yarvis and more than 2,000 poisonous wasps.
If necessary, the Ancient Tree of Iniquity can also participate in the battle.
In this way, the entire defense system structure of the Dusk City was completed.
Four walls, each guarded by a powerful hero.
And there are reinforcements inside and outside.
The walls had a geographical advantage, and the enemy had a numerical advantage.
After the kobold army launched an all-round offensive, the war went straight to the heat.
Richard sat on the western ← to meet the main force of the enemy.
The pressure is the greatest.
With a wave of his hand, the kobold army pressed down, and the sand and gravel in front of him surged.
In an instant, countless pieces of sand and gravel floated up, condensing an indestructible set of yellow sand armor on the bodies of the nearby troops.
Super A skill, condensing sand into armor.
The army's defense power skyrocketed in an instant.
But after the skill was used, Richard's heart jumped.
An unspeakable horror struck.
It was as if a dark beast that had crawled out of the abyss and could devour heaven and earth had stared at him.
That strong sense of crisis made him break out in a cold sweat on his spine.
The god of the kobold with that breath - Kurtu!!
The evil god really appeared.
At that moment, he immediately gave up the action of killing the enemy, gathered his mind, and opened his perception to the extreme.
At the same time, let the inconspicuous sand and gravel float across the battlefield, sensing the threat that could strike at any moment.
Targeted by a god, the pressure was like the tip of a knife against the neck.
The pressure skyrockets.
"Kill!!"
"Blasphemers will die!!"
"For the glory of my God!!"
“.”
The roar from the kobold's mouth came like a tidal wave.
The four walls were attacked at the same time, and the scene became extremely chaotic.
Although there were no siege equipment, the kobolds who could climb directly from the city walls immediately put great pressure on the defenders on the city walls.
Descending from the sky.
The four walls are crawling like geckos with kobolds.
When the number is dense to a certain extent, the visual impact is quite shocking.
With the ability to cross the city wall, after paying a certain number of casualties, many kobolds withstood the attack of the city of dusk and killed them on the city wall.
To the north↑, the two players excitedly watched the image of the army attacking the city wall.
As long as the city walls can be captured, and the army is completely crushed, winning this war is not a casual matter.
But in the next second, the excitement in their hearts suddenly froze.
Directly on the city wall, those warriors carrying giant axes and wearing heavy armor threw out their battle axes in their hands.
Under their gaze.
Click~
Those tomahawks shattered like glass.
In an instant, a terrifying metal storm enveloped a range of thirty meters in diameter.
The densely positioned army was immediately purged.
Rivers of blood.
Dozens of tomahawks directly created a large area of no man's land.
The armies that had just stormed the city walls were wiped out as soon as they lost a steady stream of reinforcements.
What makes them even more frightened is that when the endless army fills up, once the situation is unfavorable, a powerful spell-casting hero will appear.
The opponent's magic can directly bring the army within a radius of tens of meters to a standstill.
Suddenly stopped on the battlefield, that ending, don't think about it.
Supported by two strong pillars.
Their dreams that had just risen were shattered.
East →.
The guardian mummy on the city wall forcibly protects the wild sand mummy behind him.
These 175-numbered spellcasters don't have a strong presence in Dusk.
But there are no weak soldiers that can be trained by Richard.
As soon as the enemy rushed under the walls, the Sand Mummy cast a spell.
Brush~
On the ground, the yellow sand condensed into sharp sand thorns, stabbing out with violent power.
Nearly two hundred wild sand mummies created an exaggerated death zone on the ground.
The kobold who charged was directly impaled from the lower half of his body.
Bloody explosions.
The scene is extremely exaggerated.
No one dares to ignore the damage caused by the mage class.
The lethality caused by round after round of sand thorns can be called perverted, and it is a notch stronger than the sand archers of the city wall.
Sheena held the Broken Steel Sword in her hand, staring indifferently ahead.
Her gaze was as sharp as that of a falcon.
During a careful search, two players were found commanding hundreds of meters away.
Murderous flashes on his face.
After the Sand Mage consumed most of his mana, he could no longer stop the kobold army from storming the walls.
Hina slowly bent her body, and after being tensed to the extreme like a crossbow, bang~
Straight out of the ejection.
Lightning streaked across the sky.
A vague figure shot out of the walls into the kobold army.
Shout~
The moment Sheena landed, she was three points faster again.
At the same time, the long sword in his hand ignited a wave of extremely destructive energy.
Shattered, super A-grade, strengthens the weapon with blood, so that its sharpness is greatly improved, and it can pierce heavy armor and cut through magic shields.
In the flickering of the figure, all the kobolds around them seemed to be slashed by countless war knives, and their bodies were directly shattered in an instant.
The flower of death blooms uncontrollably.
In an invincible and domineering stance, she slashed directly at the location of the two players.
Looking down from the sky, a terrifying road paved with stumps stretches from the city walls
No kobold can stop this super A-class hero.
Domineering.
The two players, who had been sitting back and relaxing, were discussing what reward they would get after the capture of the city, when they suddenly saw a bloody shadow rushing straight towards the army in front of them.
The dense army melted directly like ice and snow in the flames.
There was a bang in my mind, and an unspeakable fear rushed into my heart.
Immediately roar and let the surrounding armies stop the other party from attacking.
But how can these rare classes of troops be able to block a warrior-type super A-level hero.
The influx of armies was directly destroyed.
The two of them were heartbroken, and without the slightest hesitation, they turned around and fled.
But it was too slow, and the light of his body surged, and he suddenly appeared 50 meters away.
But the moment they appeared.
I saw a sword with a terrifying killing machine slashing across the sky.
Slash the Sky in Fury, super A-level, condense energy on the weapon and slash the enemy in front of you
Poof.
The bodies of both players are directly fragmented.
Subsequently, under the influence of the power of the rules, their souls entered the kingdom of the kobold gods.
After the hero dies in battle, the gods of faith will lead him to his kingdom and become the immortal Holy Spirit
In other words, free labor forever.
After the two heroes were killed, a kobold hero with a potential of up to B rank next to him was furious.
Roaring to fight back.
But in the next second, the long sword flashed.
A huge dog's head flew into the sky.
Sheena, this veteran of a hundred battles, never.
The death of two players and the kobold hero immediately threw the surrounding kobold army into chaos.
The pressure on the defenders of the walls disappeared suddenly.
No one could have imagined that the enemy → from the east would be the first to be cleared.
Seeing that the target was killed, Sheena's momentum became more and more fierce, and she raised her sword and killed directly in the direction of the enemy's dense.
With the blessing of a super A-level skill, no one can stop it.
Unless surrounded by a large number of archers and warriors, Sheena is invincible.
South↓.
Gaunt is stationed here.
Unlike the other walls, this powerful spellcaster is responsible for the main output alone.
The Dark Crystal Ball in his hand can store 5,000 points of mana, which, combined with his own mana, makes him the strongest turret.
Ball after ball of corrosion burst out.
Every time, it can make the kobold army feel what it means to be painful.
What's even more domineering is his A-level skill, the Corpse Explosion Technique.
This skill with no cooldown is a nightmare for enemies on the battlefield.
The corpses that can be found everywhere are the targets of his spellcasting.
Kobolds deeply experienced the horror of this skill.
A teammate who was still charging with him one second, as long as he fell, the next second he would become a barrel filled with gunpowder, and it would explode directly with a bang.
Once the explosion kills more enemies, it has a new cast target and can be detonated for a second round.
The second round detonates the dead enemy and can proceed to the third round. Infinite loop.
So while the other walls were still trying to strangle the kobolds, the kobold army to the south had fallen into a state of extreme fear.
Not to mention attacking the upper city wall, I don't even have the idea of approaching.
It's horrible.
Stepping into the area full of corpses is like walking into mortal torture.
No one knows which corpse will explode.
Gaunt, a bloody lich wrapped in a blood-colored bandage, used his power to the extreme.
If it weren't for the magic limit, he would have been able to defend a wall by himself without the attack of the flying class.
Domineering, tough, unreasonable.
The hardest part of the battle was the western ← garrisoned by Richard.
The sense of threat brought by the kobold god is always in my heart.
He was watched by a viper hidden in the dark.
Once he makes a rash move, the opponent will unleash a fatal blow.
Can't move, can't move.
The army can only rely on its own strength to crush the enemy.
But fortunately, with the Yellow Sand Warframe, the army's defense capability has been greatly improved.
Coupled with the small number of heavy sword warriors and bone demons whose combat power exploded, they finally stabilized the defensive line.
Moreover, the defender of the city has a very obvious geographical advantage.
Coupled with the strongest life-saving skill of the City of Dusk, Sandification, even if the enemy attacks the city wall, it will still be suppressed.
Once defeated, the army will immediately turn on desertification.
Then it was like opening a matchless, killing wildly in the crowd.
Seeing that a large number of troops had already stormed the city walls, the enemy's resistance was gradually suppressed.
Chris, who was supervising the battle, had a big smile on his face.
That's right.
How can a player's territory withstand his attacks?
Even if tens of thousands of people were killed by that powerful boss and this territory was captured, it would only be a matter of hand.
It's not that he's arrogant, it's a judgment of his own strength.
He didn't come alone, the whole secret society came.
And there are thousands of troops in the desert, plus several of his B-rank heroes.
If anyone were to attack his territory with these armies, he would not be able to bear it.
Seeing that the situation on the battlefield is gradually becoming apparent, it will not be long before the enemy's walls can be captured.
Suddenly, a kobold herald walked briskly with an eager expression.
"Lord Chris, there's news from Lord Lid."
"Profit? Did he capture the north ↑? ”
Chris had a smile on his face.
"It's not going bad."
The kobold was about to cry.
"My lord, there is a powerful A-class mummy hero stationed in the north↑, and our army has not made the slightest progress in several attacks, and now more than half of them have been killed."
Chris was stunned for a moment, and after making sure that he had heard correctly, a look of disbelief appeared on his face.
"What are you kidding. A-rank Hero ?!! How is it possible for this territory to have A-rank heroes? ”
His B-rank heroes are all obtained after nine deaths, A-rank heroes, what kind of tasks do you have to complete to be subdued?
Before the kobold could reply, another kobold herald came in, and the other man gasped and shouted.
"Lord Chris!! South ↓ There is a powerful A-rank spellcasting hero stationed there!
Our army has suffered extremely heavy losses, and we ask for reinforcements"
Chris's body stiffened violently.
The expression became extremely exciting.
"Class A. Spellcasting heroes? ”
The kobold herald said hurriedly.
"That's right, its magic lethality is extremely terrifying, it can make corpses explode indefinitely, and we can't get close to the city walls at all!"
Chris was about to speak, when suddenly a third kobold herald appeared.
He looked at the other party's gray face, and suddenly a bad thought rose.
His voice was hoarse.
"The attack of the → from the east has also been blocked?"
The kobold said with a crying voice.
"Lord Chris, the enemy has a powerful hero who has slain our army directly from the frontal battlefield."
"No one can stop the two adults of the other party's secret society being killed."
Chris only felt a wave of vertigo.
This, this is the third A-rank hero?!
Why, why are there so many A-rank heroes in this territory?
I'm not convinced, I'm not convinced!!
Who the hell is that player?!!
