Chapter 6 Defeat Complete
Within a few days of the dwarves' calm, the invaders were several times as numerous as they were. This is exactly what the dwarf king wants.
This time, there were more than 400 invaders, and their arrogance was naturally very different from the past. The Terrans walked out of the Silent Forest and camped on a slightly higher hill outside the forest. This time, the Terrans actually brought in more than a dozen war horses! They were still the same cunning and vicious, and as soon as they walked out of the Silent Forest, they sent a large number of men to search for the dwarves. The dwarves did not expect the Terrans to move so quickly, and more than a dozen dwarves were captured and put on guard.
The Flame Hammer tapped excitedly on the armrest of the throne. Two small earthwalkers had brought back the information he needed, and a green-robed dwarven wizard was reading to him everything the landwalkers had glimpsed.
The dozen or so dwarves sitting in the Dwarven King's council chamber are all henchmen of the Flame Hammer. But now there is a vacant position, which originally belonged to the Sky Eye.
The dwarven king's majestic voice rang out: "This time, we are going to teach these invading humans a hard lesson, we are going to mobilize the most elite warriors, and bury all the invaders in this land completely." Tell the giants to get ready!Mobilize the miners and open a passage to the back of the Terran camp!"
"My king, shall we not kill them all, but take them prisoner?" said one of the dwarves hesitantly.
"Hmm!" the dwarven king's eyes were visibly displeased.
"King, the captives can be used to exchange gratuities with the Terrans, oh I mean, for the recipe for brewing. The dwarf didn't dare to look directly into the dwarven king's gaze, but he insisted on finishing.
The Dwarven King hesitated, and the other dwarves exchanged words, and it seemed that many of them agreed with his idea.
Yes, I've tried the taste of Terran spirits, and all the ale is as tasteless as clear water.
"Okay! That's it! Catch more prisoners! Attack the Terrans early the day after tomorrow!"
The man who led the Terran adventurers was obviously a military expert, and the small camp was surrounded by mountains and rivers, taking up the terrain. High turret towers have been erected on all important sites, and there are no dead spots at all angles.
But fighting the dwarves is different from the war within the Terrans, and the underground is a dead end for the Terrans!
The dwarven king, who watched the Terran base from afar, smiled confidently.
The adventurers are not monolithic inside, and in the middle of the camp, Paulus is fiercely arguing with Rogge and the others for the viable name of the tactic. In the last battle to lure the enemy, the elite Golden Lion Knight actually killed four and five were wounded, which made Paulus very sad. It was only that Rogge and Jing Ge's men suffered more casualties than they did, so he didn't have a complete seizure. But that didn't alleviate his disgust for Rogge, a sinister and despicable fellow. He said more than once that when he returned, he would definitely report what Rogge had done to Lord Opirok.
However, in the face of the great enemy, Paulus is not an ignorant person, and he is indispensable in regular warfare against the dwarves.
The third day of the Terran encampment.
In the early morning, the sentinels felt a hint of tension in the wind, and the arrow tower seemed to tremble slightly. After a few moments, the sentry realized that this was not an illusion, and that the tower was indeed shaking, and it was getting bigger and bigger. Soon the sentinels discovered the source of the tremors, and countless dwarven warriors walked out of the morning mist with neat steps. In the center of their ranks, there were also three tall, terrifying figures.
When, when, when! The sentinels sounded the alarm in a desperate manner.
The "Flame Hammer" rode on the ground fire lizard, the warhammer was held high, and the dwarven warriors stopped and lined up in a neat phalanx, five hundred meters in front of the Terran camp......
This time he brought with him five hundred elite dwarven warriors, as well as three hill giants. More than 300 warriors were left in the dungeon because of illness. But five hundred warriors were enough to deal with at least eight hundred Terran troops, not to mention that the enemy in front of them was only more than five hundred people?
The dwarven king's hammer was raised again. A hill giant nearly five meters tall walked towards the front of the formation. He held a stone the size of a millstone as if he were carrying a leather ball. With a roar of rage, the stone was thrown like a meteor and smashed against the wooden wall of the Terran camp. With a bang, a large hole was smashed open in the wall made of logs held by one person.
The Terrans on the wall were in a panic, obviously not expecting the dwarves to be able to mobilize so many troops.
After a while, the gates of the camp were wide open, and the Terran invaders rushed out and began to line up. The number of the human race also surprised the dwarf king, where is this four hundred, there are clearly seven or eight hundred! However, thinking of the six hundred miners and junior warriors who are digging tunnels and preparing to sneak attack, the heart of the "Flame Hammer" is still very calm.
The Hill Giants once again threw boulders at the Terrans in the array, but three fireballs flew out of the Terran camp and accurately hit the boulders in the air, shattering them in the air.
Stone throwing is not the specialty of the hill giants, and after a dozen rounds of throwing, the three giants are already clearly tired. The "Flame Hammer" waved his hand to stop, after all, they were still the main force in the battle formation. Then he raised his hammer high again, and while the Terrans were still in formation, he shouted wildly:
"For the honor of the god of war!"
"For the honor of the god of war!" all the dwarves and giants shouted in unison!
Whew, a stream of flame erupted from the mouth of the Earth Salamander, which charged the Dwarven King towards the Terrans.
The Terran invaders soon formed a formation, with the Golden Lion Knight in the center, the Dragon and Beauty Knights behind, Jing Ge's slave hunters guarding the wings, Benjamin's Shadow Killer scattered in the array, and the Black Knight and the Golden Lion Knight standing in front of the formation.
The three hill giants followed the dwarven king and rushed to the front.
The Dwarven King's "Flame Hammer" was raised high, and with a deafening roar, the war hammer struck hard, and a wave of flames crossed the space of dozens of meters, rushing towards the Terran camp, and in the blink of an eye, a golden lion knight and a black knight were devoured. The giants also threw the stones in their hands, knocking over a dozen people, and then pulled out the huge wooden sticks behind their backs and rushed towards the Terran position with a wild shout.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Paulus swung his sword to meet the dwarf king, and the two guards of Kate and Jing Ge intercepted the three hill giants respectively.
The dwarven brigade then arrived, and there was a scuffle on the field.
In the battle array, the golden lion knights formed a small square team, but they did not retreat in the face of the impact of the dwarves. In the blink of an eye, a dozen dwarves fell in front of the golden lion. Surprisingly, the dragon and beauty knights did not fall behind in the face of elite dwarven warriors. Anyway, the master was rich and a big weapons merchant, and Rogge's men were all armed with heavy shields, spears, battle axes, and crossbows. This is specifically designed to deal with dwarves. The pikemen are armed with axes and spears, and it is not so much to kill the enemy as to push the dwarves out. They kept wrestling with the dwarven warriors. Dwarves are born with short hands and short legs, and they love to use battle axes, so where can they cut people when they are caught by these long guns?
For a moment, the elite dwarven warriors were helpless with dragons and beautiful knights.
But the dwarves can't help it, just because the dragons and beauty knights can't help it. As standard for the Dragon and Beauty Knights, the crossbow wields unexpectedly great power. At such a short distance, the Hand Crossbow refined by the Hammer of the God of War was enough to shoot through the chain mail of a mid-level dwarven warrior, and although the crossbow arrow did not penetrate deep into the flesh, it was enough. You know, at this time, how can there be a reason not to feed poison to the arrows? And the poison fed is specially formulated by Floya for the dwarf physique. It's just to catch more live mouths, and this time it's just a special powerful anesthetic.
Kate had only been fighting the Hill Giant for a few rounds before she was blown to the corner of her mouth with a force that the Giant couldn't match. But Kate desperately urged the vindictiveness and fought to the death. He knew that if he retreated, the battle array behind him would be chaos. Kate was covered in holy light, blood splattered, and the steel war spear in her hand did not leave wounds on the giant's body.
Rog summoned a giant sword spider and several more skeleton warriors. As his understanding of necromancy deepened, the skeletons he summoned were now fully equipped skeleton warriors. Now all he lacks is the souls of the strong, so he can't study the more powerful undead.
Later, Rogge blessed himself with the old three's "Brute Bull Power", "Acceleration Technique" and Blessing Technique with a short spell. After the three spells were cast, Rogge on the horse turned into a war fortress again.
And it's a very special war fortress.
Since the strong men of the dwarves were all pinned, Rogge was simply killed as if he were in a no-man's land. Guarded by sword spiders and skeleton warriors, Rogge did not have to worry about his own safety, but began to worry about the safety of his future property.
He circled the Soul Bound wheel and slammed the back of his axe into a dwarven Centennial warrior. With a loud bang, the steel shield in the Centennial Soldier's hand was smashed to pieces, and the shield's left arm was broken. With an expression of disbelief on his face, the Centennial Soldier shook a few times and fell to the ground and fainted.
Even the Centennial Warriors are vulnerable, so why should the other dwarves be afraid? The tomahawk pointed forward and cut down one, the axe handle stretched back and knocked another one unconscious, and even punched and kicked. As for being occasionally cut by dwarf warriors, it is also a triple protection against the "reincarnation" of the battle armor.
He suddenly saw Kate fighting a giant, and he rode his horse and rushed forward. Kate has cooperated with him for many years, and she has a good heart, and she shouts, and her fighting spirit transforms into a strong holy light. The giant's eyes narrowed, followed by another cry of pain and jumped. It turned out that Rogge had stabbed the giant with an axe from behind, and the entire tip of the axe was gone. It's just that because of its height, this axe stabbed the thickest ass of the giant. The thickness of the hips of the hill giants was far beyond Rogge's imagination. The tip of the one-foot-long axe pierced all of them, but it still didn't touch the bone.
The wounded giant immediately went berserk, and chased and killed the despicable villains who attacked him all over the battlefield with wooden sticks, but in his rage, his head was not very good, and he accidentally injured many dwarves.
At this moment, the battlefield in the melee suddenly seemed to stop for a moment.
The originally clear sky was filled with black clouds at some point. The clouds were still gathering from all directions at an incredible speed like life.
A huge whirlpool soon formed in the center of the clouds, and the electric light shone in the whirlpool, and the huge thunder kept coming. The hands of all those who fought against them eased down, and they looked at the vision between heaven and earth in fear.
A red-robed sorceress flew into the sky from the Terran camp. Her long hair was flying, and a strong red glow floated across her chest. On the battlefield, only a few people such as Rogge could see through the red light that a small tripod with a strange style in the ball of light was slowly rotating.
Floya's cold, melodious chanting voice etherealized from the air.
"The kingdom of sin!"
Xiao Ding suddenly spun wildly. The ground of the entire battlefield began to slowly squirm as if it had come to life. Slowly, blood began to seep out of the dirt.
The Hammer of Fury suddenly shook all over his body, and all his strength was violently drained from his body. The Dwarven King took a deep breath and tried to regain his energy, only to find that the power of the flames that had almost become part of his life had disappeared without a trace.
This must have been done by that witch in the sky! What a damn "kingdom of sin"! The dwarven king roared at the sky in anger, only to find that the hundred-year-old warriors around him were shaking. He suddenly realized that the people who were staggering were all those who had drunk those two small barrels of whiskey that day!
Suddenly, regret, self-blame, and anger filled the dwarf king's heart. But because of his responsibilities as a king, he can't just fall into guilt. No, although the high-ranking warriors are cursed, this war has not been lost!
The troops underground are about to break ground!
In the sky, Floya was still chanting the incantation, and after a moment the incantation was completed, she pointed to the ground and spat out a few words that were as clear as the Nine Heavens Phoenix: "Fury of the Abyss!"
The earth shook violently, and the sound of the dwarf king falling from the ground made the dwarf king more and more desperate.
Floya Jade tapped her hand again and again, and where her fingers were, the ground fluctuated violently.
"Retreat, retreat!" the dwarven king knew the tide was turning.
The dwarven warriors suddenly rushed to their opponents like crazy, escorting the weak dwarven king to the dungeon.
"Is it that easy to withdraw?" Rogge snorted, summoned a new sword spider and chased after him.
"Roar!" One, no, it was three huge figures that stopped in front of Rogge. There were dozens of dwarves beside him. Whether it is the hill giants or the dwarves, there is a rare seriousness on their faces.
Rogge was furious and shouted, "Get out of the fuck, dwarves are money, giants are nothing!"
The giant, who had been stabbed in the ass by Rogge, replied angrily, "Despicable invader, unless our blood is drained!
Rogge suddenly smiled mysteriously and said, "Do you think that by sacrificing yourself, you can save a few more dwarves?
At this time, the god-like Floya had already completed her third spell: "Thunder Hell Forest"!
Countless lightning rays rose from the feet of the dwarves who were fleeing rapidly, and a radius of several hundred meters suddenly turned into a forest of thunder and fire. The electric fire has an unusual dark green color. From time to time, the dwarf was struck by electric fire, and in the blink of an eye, his body was covered with tiny green sparks, and he fell to the ground in convulsions.
In just a few hundred meters, most of the dwarven warriors were left behind by the Thunder Hell Forest......
Enraged, the hill giant roared and rushed towards Rog. Rogge sneered, rode up and slashed at the hill giant with a heart-palpitating whistling sound.
The two staggered silently.
The giant let out a roar of pain, and the stick in his hand broke in two. A bloody arrow then flashed out of his chest.
Roger rode back and stared at the undead giant on the ground.
The hill giant gasped with difficulty: "This, this can't be, you're just a human ......"
Rogge said lightly, "It's nothing impossible. Your biggest mistake is with your weapon, the broken wood is worth at most a silver coin, and the 'Soul Bind' is worth at least 10,000 gold coins. The result of using one silver coin against 10,000 gold coins is what you are doing now!But of course you don't understand that, do you? It doesn't matter, there is time for you to think about it in Soul Binding!"
Another bloody arrow was marked, and the huge head flew out in the distance.
A few bits of invisible sparks were sucked in by the dark crystals on the 'Soul Binding'.
Rogge looked at the corpse of the giant and said to himself, "It seems that in terms of strength, I will not lose to you." He turned his horse's head and charged at the other two giants in the battlefield once more.
The dwarven warriors went one after another, using their bodies to press a path through the 'Thunder Hell Forest', and finally escorted the Dwarven King back to the dungeon.
Seeing that the overall situation had been decided, Floya chanted a spell, and Xiao Ding became crystal clear and sank into her chest. If there is a well-informed old magician present, he will surely recognize the origin of this small ding: the artifact "Kingdom of Sin".
When activated, the "Realm of Sin" will form a vast magical enchantment: the Realm of Sin, depending on the magic of the artifact wielder. In enchantments, artifact wielders can cast magic that is one level higher than their original mana. At the same time, the artifact 'Sin Realm' itself can unleash several unique and powerful spells.
The Thunder Forest is a powerful form of magic that comes with the 'Realm of Sin'. Prey captured in the Thunder Hell Forest will be immobile for a long time, and it is the spell that is best suited to capture dwarven slaves. The terrifying thing about the Thunder Hell Forest is that it has a vast range, and there is no one in ten who can successfully penetrate the spell area without being hit twice.
There are also good and bad artifacts, and the 'Kingdom of Sin' is undoubtedly a very powerful artifact. Defeated under it, the "Flame Hammer" is actually not unjust at all. Moreover, the wine he drank had been specially added by Floya with some spices, which were not poisonous, but after resonating with the magical power of the 'Kingdom of Sin', they became extremely harmful anesthetics.
Of course, it is okay to turn into poison, but then Floya will have to face Rogge and Benjamin who have lost their minds.
As soon as he returned to the dungeon, the Dwarven King was informed that all the tunnels leading to the Falling Mountains had been broken by the earthquake that had just occurred. Due to the dislocation of the strata, the entire rock formation was blocked in the position of the original tunnel. It is estimated that it may take two months to open the tunnel again. The frightened Dwarven King immediately asked his attendants to help him to the 'Abyss Gate' to meet the old wizard Celestial Eye. He was accompanied by a dozen Centennial Warriors who were also poisoned.
"Are you sure, you really want to use the Bloodthirsty Technique?" Tianyan's voice was calm.
"Yes, even at the cost of fifty years of life, I will break this evil curse and fight these demons to the death!"
The hundred-year-old warriors behind the dwarven king had solemn expressions, and their silent faces showed unyielding determination! For them, not to mention fifty years of life, what if they were going to die tomorrow? They were willing to pay any price to protect this homeland, to protect their women and children!
Tianyan sighed secretly, for the old wizard, the fate of the race had already been decided when he set foot on this land. Any struggle will only add a little more tragedy to the final outcome.
One by one, the bloodlust was cast on the dwarven warriors. The enchanted dwarf twitched painfully on the ground, and after a long time, the Flame Hammer was the first to stand up. His eyes had turned blood-red, his skin had turned an eerie dark red, and two long fangs had protruded from his mouth.
After a while, one after another, dwarven warriors leaped from the ground.
"My king, Raging Rock has woken up from his slumber, and he wants to see you!" a dwarven guard reported eagerly to the dwarven king, who had just completed his bloodthirsty technique.
"Fury Rock, he's awake, great, tell him I'm here!" the Dwarf King was excited.
Raging Rock is also a giant, a giant that has been sleeping for more than three years. But he wasn't a hill giant, but a much more powerful mountain giant, and the giant leader of this dwarven dungeon. At six meters tall, the Furious Rock is significantly taller than the hill giants. Unlike the pale skin and stout body of the hill giants, Nu Rock has bronze skin and a well-proportioned and toned body.
The meeting between the Dwarven King and the Giant Leader was simple and straightforward.
"I already know that my three people have left me forever. But I can feel that their souls are not at peace, and they are struggling under the flames of the devil! Flame Hammer, my old friend, we all have the blood of the god of war in our veins, and I will help you to bring peace to my people after death, so that your people can live happily again in the dungeon!"
"Dear Fury, I have no doubt about your resolve. It's just that the devil is far more powerful than you and me can imagine! The devil also has an extremely evil magic weapon in his hands, and this time I will be defeated by this magic weapon! My friend, I hope that you can take your people out of here and return to the Luoyue Mountain Range, to a place where the devil cannot reach. ”
"Honorable Flame Hammer, the way west has been blocked by the devil, and we have no other way but to fight. Three years of slumber have opened my eyes to the world that I couldn't peer into before. The angry rocks that wake up are stronger than ever, and I'm going to challenge these demons. I've felt the artifact, it's regaining its strength, but it's not working for two days. So we're going to fight these demons as soon as possible!"
"Beneath the Gate of the Abyss, too, lies unspeakable evil. I will unleash them when necessary, and use my flesh and blood to make the demons kill each other. ”
"Dear Flame Hammer, I can feel your grief. Let our fate be decided tomorrow!"
The night passed quickly, and Rogge and his allies didn't get much rest. It took too much time to clean up the battlefield. But it's like picking up gold coins in a pile of rocks, and no one is tired of getting dirty, except Floya.
More than a hundred dwarven warriors were killed and nearly 400 were captured alive. What made Rogge even happier was that there were good warrior souls floating everywhere on the battlefield. The fat man's insight beyond worldly comprehension allowed him to clearly see whether these souls were dwarves or Terrans during their lifetimes, and even to distinguish which people's souls they were.
For the dragon and beauty knights who have followed him for many years, Rogge sends their souls to ...... Well, where should I send it? Obviously, the heavenly realm where the gods live is not very suitable, and these evil people will be burned by the karmic fire of hell when they go to the underworld. As for the Demon Realm, it is a place where only the strong can go, and even Rogge himself is not a strong man, let alone these subordinates. The Dragon and the Beauty Knight are just despicable and insidious.
After thinking about it, Rogge sent the souls of more than a dozen dragons and beautiful knights who died in battle to the other world where Fengyue was located. As for whether Fengyue, who is getting bigger and bigger, can look at this group of people, it depends on their creation.
The soul of the Golden Lion Knight cannot be let go, and Jing Ge's subordinates are also good hands. In terms of his attitude towards souls, Rogge has always only judged heroes by their strength and weakness, and there is no slightest racial discrimination. As long as the soul has a certain strength, the fat man will not refuse to come, and it will be a good material for testing necromantic magic in the future.
Of course, the fat man can't let others know that he is collecting souls. He shuttled through the battlefield, greeting each soldier who cleaned up the battlefield kindly. Rog can call everyone by name, and the fat man without a frame quickly wins everyone's favor. Turning around the battlefield, a pale flame had begun to burn in the black crystal on the battle axe's "Soul Binding". The entire tomahawk began to glow with a misty white light.
Rogge suddenly slashed off a small tree with an axe, and the crown of the small tree withered at a rate visible to the naked eye. Rogge stumbled upon the discovery that when a large number of souls were stored in Soulbinding, the battle axe began to automatically apply a powerful curse effect.
Of course, such an evil weapon cannot be carried around in a grand manner, and the soul in it must be disposed of as soon as possible. It's a good idea to try refining a few undead creatures.
After all, in human society, the two big golden words "justice" must be pasted on one's face.
The role of 'Soul Binding' naturally can't be hidden from Floya, who is a master of magic. But the little demon girl herself also has a very serious dark tendency, and she is not used to Rogge's unscrupulous behavior to enhance her strength. At least it won't reveal the fat man's secret. Rogge is obedient and respectful to her now, and he doesn't need this secret for the time being, but it's hard to say in the future.
Rog trotted along, carrying the evil, cold, and death-filled tomahawk, trying to sneak back to his tent.
"Stop! Where do you want to slip away?"
Rogge was sweating profusely, and when he looked back, he saw that Floya was staring at him with a smirk. He hid the 'Soul Binding' behind his back and said curtly: "Hehe, this, Your Highness, you know that today's battle is very hard, yes, the villain is tired, and I want to go back and rest!"
"What's behind you, show me!" Floya's eyes were full of smiles.
Rogge was sweating profusely and said, "It's just the villain's broken axe." ”
"Hmph, you've been able to sweat a lot, and if you ask what you want to do, you're in a cold sweat, haven't you practiced it? Stand still for me!" Floya said, and walked around Rog's back.
"I see! Looks like you're a necromancer. Is this fat meat fake?" the goblin approached Rogge and pulled the fat on Rogge's face hard, making Rogge grin with pain.
Floya snatched the 'Soul Binding' from Rog's hand, but she didn't expect it to be so heavy, and with a cry of surprise, the tomahawk fell to the ground, smashing into a deep pit. After this shock, the souls in the 'Soul Binding' became restless, and the whole tomahawk was full of green light, and streams of green smoke flew around the tomahawk, constantly trying to escape from the tomahawk's surroundings, but they were always pulled back by an invisible force.
'Soul Binding' shook with a sharp voice, like a midnight ghost crying.
Floya stared at Rogge and smiled, "You want to refine the soul in this axe into an undead creature, right?
Floya added her strength a few times, and even gave herself a higher level of "divine power" than the "power of the brute bull", but she couldn't help the soul binding, and finally gave up. She looked at Rog with interest, as if she were looking at a monster that had never appeared before. "Okay, dead fatty, how can you have so much strength? It seems that you have hidden a lot from me!"
Rogge was extremely weak-hearted, and hurriedly said: "This, how dare the villain!"
"Hmph! I'll settle accounts with you about this matter carefully! You don't have anything in that tent, so let's go to my laboratory and cultivate your undead creatures! Seeing that your level of death magic is not very good, I'll teach you something by the way!"
Rogge thought he had misheard: "What, Your Highness, you're not joking!"
"Why don't you come here with your broken axe?" said Floya, walking towards her tent.
