Chapter 739: A New Ally (Ask for a Recommendation Ticket!Ask for a Monthly Pass!)
The men guarding the camp lit braziers. At intervals above the wall, a huge brazier burned brightly, illuminating the sharp iron nails embedded in the wall.
The burning material in the brazier, in addition to ordinary firewood, also some alchemists' potions—specially prepared to disperse the fog—but it didn't take long for the fog to dissipate on its own.
They had just lurked near the walled city through the thick fog, and had not been attacked by a rain of arrows. It is enough that dense fog provides such a level of convenience. After all, in the next battle, they also have to see their opponents clearly.
"Every time you see fortresses, you always feel uneasy about their prominent presence, even if they are destined to be bulldozed. ”
Somehow, the raiders felt that they had to defeat not only the humans within the walls, but also the fortress itself.
And the fortress itself is an extremely terrifying place, with jagged edges and corners, and even, contains life, as if it were some kind of huge beast, the flesh has melted, revealing the sharp bones that support its form.
Cai Tongtian stared at the watchtower, his eyes slightly sore from overexertion. Over there...... The fire was extinguished, and the last brazier had been doused with water to prevent it from starting a fire in the middle of the battle.
The general heard the battle cry shouted from inside the city wall, very neatly, and it was obvious that the other party had not lost the will to fight. Even if the monster hordes were already closing in on the walls, breaking through them was as easy as stabbing through a layer of window paper.
"Fighting a war is really a rough man's job. When the old dog returns, he still has to let him take the vanguard to attack. ”
As a robber born as a cloud giant, Cai Tongtian is actually not particularly keen on fighting. Especially when the opponent is ready and desperately prepared, he may not be a qualified general, and he is not capable of leading the army to fight a tough battle.
Thankfully, the battle wasn't too tough.
The fact that the camp was limited in size and could not have been stockpiled with enough men, and the fact that the fort itself was built with logs, some of which even had unpeeled bark, and dirt rather than masonry walls, showed that the enemy had not been operating in the area for too long, and that they could not have prepared too many machinery to defend the city in advance.
In addition, the monsters brought by Caitongtian are all freshly baked "new species" from the hatchery, and each one has no old injuries and hidden dangers, and is full of energy and eager to fight. So he believed that his men would quickly pull out the walls that defended the city as quickly as mussels, and tear the soft flesh hidden in their shells with their claws and their teeth.
"Maybe I'm planning to build a gate to commemorate the beginning of the conquest of the Ramsay plane after I take this floating land. The raider thought for a moment.
However, before he could make up his mind, an unexpected change suddenly occurred: eight thick totemic pillars popped up around the walled city, on which elemental inscriptions flickered wildly, and at the same time, the earth trembled violently, and a large number of traveling earth elementals began to gather rapidly towards the place, supporting the camp and quickly rising from the ground.
The general's eyes widened. He would never have imagined that he would encounter such a "miracle". What was already a sure siege has now become a different kind of battle. To tear down the walls of the camp, the monsters in its army must first climb a cliff up to a height of 100 feet. Even the Raven Men who are good at climbing are a little overwhelmed by such a smooth rock wall.
Moreover, since the hole cards have been revealed, how can Green, as the commander, let the enemy act unscrupulously. Standing in the watchtower of the Emerald Wood Fortress, overlooking the army of monsters on the ground, he gave orders to the black-armored knight beside him. "Blow the horn, the Emerald Wood Fortress has stopped the monster army. Our allies are ready to show up!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Thom Paladin untied the huge horn he was carrying behind him, put it to his mouth and blew it vigorously. The "whine" was low and primitive, shaking the earth, passing through the rocks and awakening the hot-blooded samurai who had long been ready for a battle. A large number of barges suddenly appeared in the swamp, speeding towards the floating area that blocked the monster army.
"What are those things?"
The eyes as sharp as an eagle made it easy for the raider to see the appearance of the comer. The lack of discovery of this group of "people" just now - their appearance makes it impossible for Cai Tongtian to consider them human - is mostly due to some kind of magic.
And that's exactly what happened. The elemental shamans from the island world communicated with the elements around them, ordering them to provide as much cover and cover as possible before their warriors entered the battlefield. When the horn sounds, the whole army launches a general attack.
On each rune canoe like a long arrow, a dozen camel warriors squatted. Behind them, the elemental shamans were working with the water and earth elements of the swamp to push the canoe forward quickly.
More than 60 canoes rowed across the water, like arrows from a string, and rushed directly onto the floating shore. The tall dromedary warriors leapt from their cabins and quickly completed the beach-grabbing landing tactics.
Their goal was clear, it was the dozen or so one-eyed beasts standing at the back of the monster army. Although in terms of size, each cyclops is about three times the size of dromedary. But this gap is much smaller than the results of those monsters and humans. Coupled with the advantages of numbers and equipment, the dromedary and the cyclops are not without the power to fight in close quarters.
In the moment when the two "big" creatures fought, the sounds of armor grinding, flesh and flesh fighting, roars, howls, and shouts erupted from the battle. The corpses were mixed together, the iron-gray limbs of the cyclops and the flesh of the dromedary with its dark brown fur all intertwined. The glittering light of the armor blended with the dull sheen of axes, hammers, and spears.
But the mix only lasted a short time. After all, the dromedaries were dozens of times more numerous than the one-eyed beasts, and before the raiders could even come to their rescue, all of them were cut down to the ground.
"For the scales of the Eternal Order!" After a long period of brainwashing, most of the camel elemental shamans in the island world have pledged their allegiance to Quis and the Chamber of Commerce he owns. They chanted slogans and began to launch a spell attack on the raider.
