Quinine stood on the platform at the top of the bridgehead, staring into the distance with a nonchalant expression. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
In the morning breeze, a dark shadow appeared on the horizon in the distance, bringing with it the breath of death. The River of Frostwind roared and roared, just like his mood at this moment. Thousands of years later, as a warrior of the dwarven race, he will once again fight to the death against the dark forces, and continue to write the glory left by his ancestors with bravery and life. Perhaps, his end will be as tragic as that of his ancestors thousands of years ago, but in order to pursue the light, for future generations to still have the freedom to live peacefully on this land, he has no regrets.
"Partner, work with me and let's create a miracle together!" quinine said with a smile as he gazed affectionately at the magic spear in his hand.
The roaring sound of the horn resounded throughout the fortress, and the pace of war was getting closer and closer.
"Order, Fort One combatants into firing positions!" quinine yelled and walked over to the firing hole.
"Captain, come, take two sips, it's windy up here. Nearby, his countryman Erhan threw the wine bag in his hand. Spirits are the favorite of the dwarves and the spark that ignites the passion for battle in their hearts.
Quinine craned his neck and took a few sips, wiping his mouth in satisfaction.
"Happy! Elhan, you're finally willing to take out your collection for years!
"Let you be warm, lest you wait for your hands to tremble, and if you lose, you will blame me!" said Elhan.
"Don't say it, these few mouthfuls are warm from the inside out!" Quinine poured a few more sips, "Since you entered the forest at the age of twelve, when has Lao Tzu lost to you?"
"But in the end, I won her heart. Erhan smirked.
"That can only be said that she has no vision. Since ancient times. The bravest person in our village deserves the most beautiful girl, but she's just in love with you, who can write love poems!" quinine sighed helplessly.
"Duducious guys. Erhan looked at him and shook his head slightly. This guy, in order to prevent him from becoming a soldier, almost broke his legs. In the end, it was his wife who interceded before giving up. After entering the army. The two of them had been together, and every time there was danger, Quinine took the initiative to stand in front of him.
Elhan knew that it wasn't him who quinine wanted to protect, he just wanted to protect the happiness of the girl in his heart. This fact made him very angry, and his once good brother turned into a rival.
"It's coming. Remember not to waste bullets. Quinine tossed the bag back to him, staring intently into the distance.
The tens of thousands of soldiers of the Necronomicon Legion gradually approached the Frostwind River, stopping more than a thousand meters away from the river, and forming five neat phalanxes.
The officers and soldiers of the coalition in the fortress mound were all nervously watching the battlefield. For many. It was the first time they had seen the Dark Legion, and the first time in their lives that they had encountered the undead. Beneath the black armor that shimmered with the cold light of the forest was a lifeless skeleton of bones, a group of devils who took pleasure in harvesting life. If it weren't for the medicine of the Medicine Terrans, many people would not even have the courage to look up at the enemy at this moment.
A skeleton general in front of the central phalanx slowly drew his sword and pointed it at the Frostwind Bridge.
"Rush!" A terrible roar muffled the sound of wind and water, resounding throughout the battlefield.
Behind him. Hundreds of cavalry galloped towards the bridge, and the infantry followed closely behind them, rushing towards the bridge like a tide.
The undead army launched the first wave of attacks. The battle officially began in front of the mound.
The cavalry quickly rushed to the bridge, and the allied soldiers in the bridgehead also fixed their eyes on them.
The crisp sound of gunfire, like the roar of a god, the fire on the No. 1 bridgehead shone brightly, and the dozens of knights who rushed to the front suddenly fell off their horses. A few even fell directly into the river and were swallowed up by the rolling waves in an instant.
Inside the bridgehead. One group of soldiers exited the firing position to quickly reload ammunition, and another group of soldiers began a second round of firing.
After a few rounds of salvos. There were only a hundred or so of the hundreds of knights left, and under the leadership of the skeleton general, they rushed to the middle of the bridge.
"Kill him. Quinine looked at the skeletal general on the bridge and yelled at the shooters on the platform.
"Listen to me!" aim for his neck!" Erhan shouted calmly, muzzle pointing at the skeleton general. When he looked closely, he found that it was the only place on the skeleton general's body that was not covered by the armor.
The wind stopped, time froze, and the skeleton general's movements became slower and slower in Elhan's eyes, and his body became clearer and clearer.
"Three, two, one, shoot!" he gently pulled down the trigger.
"Bah!" On the platform, more than a dozen fires flashed at the same time, spewing out the extreme hatred of human beings for the undead!
The skeleton knight in the midst of a high-speed gallop suddenly exploded with a canopy of smoke and dust around his neck, and then his head flew high and his body fell off the horse's back. The magic spear, an unfamiliar weapon, showed great power in the first round of the battle with the undead army. The speed of the bullets was so fast that the undead generals who led the team had no time to react and withdrew from the battlefield.
"Damn, who did it, hit so accurately?" On the city wall, Liuyun looked at the head in the air and couldn't help but cheer loudly.
"This level is comparable to our soldiers!" Shui Han also praised.
"The skill of using a magic gun is similar to that of a bow and arrow. Among the soldiers of various races on the mainland, many were born marksmen. Isana smiled.
"After this battle, I have to pick it up again, and these marksmen will work better together. Liuyun said.
"At the moment, most of the people that the coalition forces can pick out are in the four bridgeheads. Isana replied.
"Xiaoyun, it seems that it is wise not to destroy the bridge. Looking at the fallen skeleton soldiers on the bridge and the endless ranks of skeletons behind them, Lao Ka finally understood why Liuyun had left this passage for the enemy.
"It won't be long before the bridge is full of skeleton shelves. When the time comes, the enemy's attack speed will be slower, making it easier for our soldiers to aim. The only thing I'm worried about is when the mage group on the other side will make a move. ”
"Don't worry, the entire magic group is engrossed and waiting for them!" said Lao Ka confidently.
In the tentative assault launched by the Legion of the Undead, the four bridgeheads showed great lethality. Not a single Allied soldier was lost, while the Legion of the Undead lost hundreds. The situation was exactly the same as he expected, and Liuyun's heart was both happy and full of helplessness. If he had enough magic powder, it would be much easier to deal with the dark forces.
His eyes were fixed on the Frostwind Bridge, and he quietly waited for the real test to come.
After a tentative attack was thwarted, the undead legion chose to retreat temporarily after leaving hundreds of skeleton frames on the bridge.
As they retreated, there were all kinds of magical sights in the sky.
"Enemy fire support came. Liuyun looked up at the sky.
Lao Ka quietly looked at the sky.
Fire rain meteors, lightning storms, frozen wilds...... They were all medium-range group attack magic, and this attack by the Templar Mage Regiment only used ordinary magicians.
"Uncle, why didn't you react?" Liuyun looked at him in surprise.
"I'm building a fortress, not a tofu scum project, dear Xiaoyun. The bridgehead I personally supervised, if I can't even resist these garbage magic, I'll be killed!" said Lao Ka lightly.
On the four bridgeheads, the coalition soldiers on the top platform quickly retreated to the lower level. At the same time, the firing positions on the body of the fort were also covered, leaving only very small lookout holes and shooting holes.
A magical storm of fire, lightning, falling rocks, and ice swept in, and the vast clearing where the Frostwind Bridge and the bridgehead were located were shrouded in all kinds of magical light, and the heavens and the earth were suddenly darkened.
"Fifteen of me, how many of you?" Elhan asked, standing against the wall, flicking his wrist toward quinine.
"Seventeen. Give me two more sips of wine. Quinine held out his hand.
"I never dreamed that I would kill a dozen skeleton soldiers as soon as I got on the field!
"You don't even have a son, so you dare to say that this life is worth it?" quinine said coldly.
"You don't even have a wife, of course you don't think it's worth it!" Elhan scoffed.
Quinine drank in silence.
"Brother, go on. I think there is hope in this battle! If we win, we will be the heroes of the dwarven race and the creators of the great history of the continent!" Elhan seemed to realize that he had gone too far, and immediately changed the subject.
"Elhan, sometimes, I think it's an unforgivable mistake not to take someone to rob you on the day you got married!" quinine sighed softly as he listened to the thunder and flying stones outside. He didn't want to be a hero, and he didn't want to die in battle and become a hero. He just wants to protect his own happiness. Even if she didn't give him happiness, then he was willing to protect her happiness with his life.
By the time the Magic Storm ended, the bridge was unharmed, and the four bridgeheads were also unscathed. The skeleton soldiers surged onto the bridge again and rushed towards the opposite bank.
This time, they moved very smoothly and still did not come under attack after crossing the middle of the bridge.
"It's so easy, isn't it??'s weird that the magicians of the coalition didn't move!" Rohr frowned, standing on a high ground, looking at the bridge from afar.
As the skeleton soldiers were about to cross the bridge, the sound of gunfire rang out again. A large number of soldiers suddenly fell at the head of the bridge, and the skeletons that rushed up behind them were also in chaos. At such a close distance, they became a living target for the coalition soldiers. This is a tactic adopted by the coalition forces in order to save ammunition and effectively kill and injure the enemy. The skeleton that fell on the bridge became an obstacle in the path of the undead legion. Some of the skeletal officers began to direct the soldiers to throw them all into the river.
When the entire bridge was crowded with skeletons, Lao Ka turned and nodded to the waiting wizards behind him.
A subtle chant of magic rang out.
This time, there were only a few elven water magisters who struck. (To be continued)...
