Chapter 42: The Siege (I) The Beginning
Bar Camp at the foot of the Holy Mountain of Aretus in the Continent of Daywind
The Lord of Destruction, Baal, has taken the only elder of the Barbarian Clan to the Worldstone Fortress, and at this moment the control of this army of Hellish Cultists has actually fallen to the Overseer, Shank.
"Big brother, I think the Barbarian Bull Clan probably doesn't have the strength left to save these captured warriors," it has been a whole day since he participated in the battle, Carlo felt his teeth itch, "It's been a whole day, they haven't moved at all, shouldn't we attack?" ”
"You want to fight, don't you?" Shank looked at his brother with a mocking expression, "Have you forgotten all the strict orders that Lord Baal threw before leaving?" ”
"But big brother, you see that thousands of warriors of the Barbarian Bull Clan have been captured by us," Carlo smiled, helping his eldest brother analyze the situation in front of him, "Judging from the fact that there are no Barbarian Bull Clan warriors continuing to come to the rescue all day, the Barbarian Bull Clan has exhausted its strength, isn't now the best time for us to eliminate them?" When Lord Baal comes back and sees that we have destroyed the Barbarian Clan, I believe that Lord Baal will reward us well. ”
"It's my brother," Shank also smiled, "Actually, I think so too, although Lord Baal has ordered us to wait until the catapult is built before taking Harogas in one fell swoop, but an exhausted brute still needs to use a catapult?" It's good that the Bull Clan is very strong, but the number of people in the city is too different from our army, even without a catapult, I can take Harogas and completely destroy the Bull Clan! ”
"Then big brother, what are you waiting for?" Carlo looked impatient, "Give the order to call it immediately." "Look at your little bit of energy!" Shanke looked at Carlo with disdain, "What's the use of destroying a barbarian who has no power to resist?" This credit will not bring us much reward, I am waiting for the survivors of the Earth Five Clan, they should be about to arrive in Harogas, not to mention that Lord Baal values the will of the Necromancer more than destroying the Bull Clan, only by destroying the survivors of the Earth Five Clan and the Bull Clan, Lord Baal will be happy, and we will also win Lord Baal's reward. ”
Listening to Shanke's words, Carlo suddenly realized, "What the eldest brother said is very true, it just so happens that I also want to meet the legendary cow for a while to see how strong he is!" "So, I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, I've sent several waves of outposts, as long as the survivors of the Earth Five Clans arrive in Harorgas, I will know right away, you can adjust your state with peace of mind now, and you will enjoy it slowly."
At this moment, a servant demon rushed into the tent and knelt down in front of the demons, "Lord Shanke, we have just received news that the survivors of the Earth Five have arrived in Harogas. ”
"So fast?" Shank waved his hand, "Got it, you go down first." The servant stood up and exited the tent.
"Big brother, do you think they come quickly?" Carlo looked at his eldest brother with a puzzled expression, isn't the eldest brother waiting for the arrival of the five clans? Why did it seem from his words that Shank didn't want the survivors of the Five Clans to arrive in Harlogas?
"That Hadak's corpse hasn't been processed yet," Shank answered his brother's question with a frown, "His corpse is the key to destroying the necromancer's will. ”
"Lord Shank," Weird rose from his seat, "it's not the time to destroy the necromancer's will, and it's not too late to torture the necromancer when we take Harogas." ”
"Big brother, weirdness is right," Carlo hurriedly echoed, "As long as you don't kill the necromancer, isn't it exactly Lord Baal's wish to slowly torture him?" ”
Shankluo pondered for a while, and felt that Strange and his brother were not wrong, "What you said is right, in that case, Weird, you immediately go and organize the army, I order your Servant Demon Clan to organize a vanguard army to attack Harorgas at noon, and I will also lead the army to follow, as for the processing of Hadak's corpse, I will leave it to you, Darkfarne." ”
"Yes, Lord Shanke." Darkfarne hurriedly stood up and took Shank's order in a milky voice.
Walls of Halogas by day
"What? Elder Nilasek captured? Hearing the news that the elder had been arrested, Si Xu was extremely excited, "Then you haven't thought about rescuing the elder?" Si Xu glanced at the barbarian warriors around him and roared.
"Your sister Anya has ordered us to strictly forbid any action until she has come up with the perfect rescue plan," one of the Barbarian warriors explained, "but she hasn't been seen for three days, and many warriors can't help but spontaneously organize to rescue the Elder, but they are trapped in the Barr barracks, and there is no news so far, I believe they are all unlucky." With our current military strength, if we go out of the city to rescue the Elder again, Harogas will definitely fall. ”
After listening to the words of the Barbarian Bull Clan warriors, Si Xu calmed down a little, it seems that Anya has also had an accident, and Si Xu still knows his sister very well, "What about the reserves?" "It's just that now is not the time to clear my sister's suspicions, the successive blows have made the morale of the Barbarian Bull Clan warriors extremely low, if you tell them your guess at this time, I don't know if the Barbarian Bull Clan warriors can continue to participate in the next battle.
"Sixu, do you want to use the reserves?" Hearing Si Xu's question, the warriors of the Barbarian Bull Clan seemed to be a little surprised, "They are all still underage children, and their fighting skills are not enough to deal with the group of monsters outside, you ......" The warriors of the Barbarian Bull Clan did not say any more, and letting the children of the reserve face the army of the Hell Disciples, the King of Destruction, was no different from letting them die.
"Now it's time for the Barbarian Bull Clan to live and die!" Si Xu glanced at the Barbarian Bull Clan warriors around him, "If you don't rescue Elder Niracek, sooner or later the Lord of Destruction will know the secret of the holy artifact, and once the artifact falls into his hands, what kind of results will it be, I don't think I need to say more, right?" ”
The warriors of the Barbarian Bull Clan were silent, indeed, the World Stone cannot be lost, this is not only related to the safety of the world, but more importantly, it is related to the honor of the Barbarian Bull Clan.
"However, none of us here have the right to transfer reserves."
"This has nothing to do with power," Si Xu looked at the military camp of the King of Destruction in the distance, "I will personally go to the inner city and inform the reservist children of the real situation, we only need volunteers, if they do not come to participate in this war voluntarily, even if they are forced to join this war, it will not have the slightest effect, and it may cause our defense line to collapse completely, but I believe that those children will not live up to their identity!" ”
Barbarian Bull Clan warriors, you look at me, I look at you, Si Xu's words are very reasonable.
"Halogas will be left to you and the children," Sixu continued, "and when I'm done with this place, I'll go and rescue Elder Niracek." ”
"What?" The warriors of the Barbarian Bull Clan were all taken aback, and Si Xu actually wanted to go to the military camp of the Lord of Destruction alone.
"If we don't rescue Elder Niracek, even if we save Harogas, it won't make the slightest sense," Si Xu withdrew his gaze from the camp of the King of Destruction, "If we can't protect the World Stone, we Barbarian Clan will lose the meaning of existence." With that, Sixu jumped towards the city.
The warriors of the Barbarian Bull Clan sighed helplessly, Si Xu was their last hope to rescue the elders, and it was also the last hope of the Barbarian Bull Clan.
Daytime outside the city of Halogas
Decca Kane led the crowd to a very conspicuous building, saying that it was remarkable not because it was different from other barbarian buildings, but because it was built on a high platform.
"We're here," Decca Kane said, lifting the curtain. The buildings of the Barbarian Bull Clan are only hung with curtains and no doors, and it seems that the security situation in Harogas is quite good.
The group followed Dika Kane into the building, where the huge room was filled with strange potions placed on top of the stands, and it was unknown what they were used for.
"Marat, the old man has come to see you." Dika Kane suddenly shouted, everyone was looking forward to it, and a figure who could make a master like Dika Kane remember was definitely not an ordinary person.
With Dika Kane's shout, a woman wearing a white cotton robe, her hair was in a mess, and she looked to be at least seventy or eighty years old, walked out from behind these brackets, and when she saw Dika Kane, her originally tightly knit brows slowly relaxed, "Liya! Marat said as he walked quickly towards the group, "What wind is blowing you here?" ”
Lascar? There was a confusion in everyone's hearts, this was obviously a woman's name, was she calling Dika Kane? Looking at Marat's appearance, he is indeed calling Dika Kane, could it be that the wise man who has been guiding everyone forward is actually a woman?
"You're old, Marat." Deka Kane reached out and touched the wrinkles on Marat's forehead, his eyes were full of helplessness and a little sadness, "Do you think anyone can be as immortal as you?" Marat's words shocked everyone again, according to Marat's words, Deka Kane is an ageless existence, which violates the laws of nature! But what's going on with Decca Kane's current body of the old dragon clock? Could it be that it is also transformed by illusions?
"Oh, I almost forgot," Decca Kane hurriedly diverted the subject, "to introduce you, this is Master Marat, and her achievements in potions are the first in the Wind Continent." ”
Decca Kane's evaluation of Marat surprised everyone again, "Liya, you are exalting me too much. Marat smiled with relief, "Old decay is just telling the truth. ”
"After so many years, have you been living like a master like this?" Hearing Marat's question, Decca Kane nodded, "Master? The conversation between the two made everyone more and more confused.
"It's time to let go, the war is coming to an end," Marat sighed deeply, "whether we humans are victorious or defeated, the war should end after this battle, haven't you ever thought about living your life?" ”
"Old man came here today, in fact, he wanted to restore his true body under your witness, just like when he incarnated as a master under your witness." Decca Kane looked at Marat with a smile on his face.
"Really?" Mara looked at Decca Kane with a satisfied face, and the affirmation given by Decca Kane made Mara very proud, and everyone was really stunned by Decca Kane's words, and restored his true body! Curiosity couldn't help but fill everyone with anticipation, Zhang Zhiang tried to hold back his laughter, as long as he thought about everyone's expressions when they saw Hera Liya, Zhang Zhiang couldn't help but want to laugh.
"Heroes," Seeing Marat signaling himself to start, Dika Kane turned to look at everyone, "Please forgive the old man for deceiving everyone all the time, the reason why the old man will transform into the current appearance is a last resort, and now the old man will return to his true body." ”
As he spoke, Dika Kane's body gradually drifted away, revealing Hera Leia's original appearance.
