0032 Caught in a bitter battle

On the way to the [Lord's Mansion], Wang Xian introduced the situation in the city as he walked.

Araki Castle has more than 65,000 subjects, and its main industry is trade with the neighboring province of Xueman.

Trade is considered to be the pillar industry of the eastern part of the entire province of Dort.

The reason for this is not that trade is profitable, but that wetland swamps, where birds don't poop, don't have too many industries suitable for operation and development.

Sitting in the living room, a map was brought up in a short time.

Among them, there are three designated Rune troops, and the overall number is roughly estimated to be around 1,000 people.

Two were around the Misty City, and one was deployed in the garrison.

"Invincible City Lord, these are the distribution of troops from three days ago, and it may not be so accurate now."

Wang Xian reminded.

"The leader Goethe has three troops, just push it flat, what is he waiting for?"

Li Li asked puzzled.

"He is waiting for the poisonous swamp to solidify, the invincible city lord does not know, when the ancestors of Xiuth built the Misty City, they built a poisonous swamp moat around the city-state in a top-secret method, but if you want this poisonous swamp to take effect for a long time, it must be non-nourished by the catalytic preparation prepared by Xius, otherwise it will solidify in a few more days."

Wang Xian explained.

"I understand, just like our school dry toilet in the early years, if no one goes for a long time during the holidays, it will harden into a lump."

Wang Qiang made an analogy.

"You parable.... It's disgusting. ”

Shen Qiaoyin looked disgusted.

"That's a good thing your friend said."

Wang Xian smiled and responded.

"That's it... No, if this moat poison swamp is solidified, there will be nothing to stop Goethe, but because the other party is already stationed near the city-state, there is no way for Xiusi to go out of the city and use catalysts to nourish the poison swamp? ”

Li Li asked tentatively.

"That's right."

"Then Lord Wang Xian, why are you so calm?"

Li Li couldn't understand.

It stands to reason that Xiusi is the leading big brother in the east, and if Misty City falls, the other lords will definitely not want to have a good life.

"If you don't calm down, there's no way, I've written the surrender letter, if Rune kills Misty City after breaking through it, I'll disband Araki City and take my family and cronies to live in the depths of the swamp, anyway, my ancestors are not lords, and there is no burden on reputation at all."

Li Li didn't expect that Wang Xian would be very open to the destruction of the city-state.

"In this case, the first thing to do is to cover for Hughes to add catalysts to the poison swamp."

Li Li analyzed.

"That's right, but Theseus won't be willing to cooperate."

Wang Qiang felt that it would not work.

"Don't worry about this, Xiusi said that although he doesn't really want to see the people of Invincible City, if there are any tactics that need to be cooperated, he will never avoid it."

Wang Xian informed.

"Then tell him to make an appointment, let's go to Misty City to meet together, and I'll cover him to apply the catalyst, and get the poison swamp matter done first."

Li Li said very cheerfully.

At noon the next day, Li Li took 20 [Corrupt Golems] and 30 [Corrupt Blade Mantis] to the outskirts of Misty City.

It was quite surprising to see the [Poison Swamp] bubbling with yellow bubbles.

Because the stuff flowing and tumbling in this bubble [Poison Swamp] not only looks like poop, but also smells like poop.

Shen Qiaoyin couldn't believe how the residents of Misty City lived in such a harsh environment.

However, there is one thing to say, in terms of the width of 20 meters, it is really not easy to cross.

Seeing that Xiusi hadn't yet appeared at the appointed time, Li Li shook the [Swamp Golem Core] he was carrying.

Chengshu sensed the induction transmitted by the [Psychic Vision], and reluctantly established a connection with it.

"Hey! Feed! Can you hear ME? ”

Li Li said, and slammed the [Swamp Golem Core] twice.

"I can hear you! Stop shooting. ”

As soon as Xius established the [Psychic Vision], he felt a violent smash.

"You, we're already in place, come out with the catalyst."

Li Li urged.

"Didn't Rune's troops notice it?"

Hughes asked tentatively.

"No, it's safe, but you'd better take more soldiers out of the city, in case you are found halfway, at least you have the strength to fight."

Li Li instructed.

"If I had enough soldiers, I would have opened the city gates and fought back."

Theseus was angry when he thought about it.

"Okay, as soon as possible."

Ten minutes later, a team of about 50 [Elite Guards] appeared on the opposite bank of the [Poison Swamp].

To Li Li's surprise, there were still a few people in the accompanying team marked as "Construction Craftsman" on their heads, as well as a cart full of wooden planks.

"Why didn't you bring the Golem with you?"

Theseus stood on the other side and observed for a moment, and asked suspiciously.

The golem is best at defense, although he doesn't know how Li Li refined the golem to drive it, but as long as he can control it, there is no reason not to bring it over in this case.

"Bring it, I'm afraid you'll be uncomfortable when you see it, so I'll deploy it farther."

Li Li explained.

"You're thinking about me..."

Huspie snorted without smiling, and then the builder picked up the planks and began to work.

"You're building too slowly, let me build something."

Building things is Li Li's specialty, so he shouted.

"No, this is the altar that stimulates the catalyst, you just need to protect the surroundings."

Hughes refused.

"Is this catalyst such an artifact, you have to come in person, and there has to be an altar?"

Li Li asked curiously.

"Of course, our Mel family has been lords for generations, the most devout believer of the god of the mire in the world, the king of the fog who once ruled the province of Dort, and only our bloodline can bring out the strongest power contained in the mire."

Hughes said proudly.

"Such a dick."

Li Li didn't expect that this Xiusi was still a lord with a [bloodline inheritance].

"Of course, this kind of family inheritance, you new star lords who only have one generation will never want to experience it."

Theseus held his head high, even more proud.

Although the [Builders] were not as fast as Levi's construction, they had an average level of more than 20, and soon built a bridge about three meters wide along the shore to the center of the [Poison Swamp].

Then the construction of a wooden room was started on the bridge with wooden planks.

Halfway through the construction of the room, Li Li suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart, it was the [Corrupt Golem] who was sending him a danger signal.

Li Li didn't have the ability of [Psychic Vision], so he couldn't find out what was going on.

But judging from the surrounding situation, nine times out of ten, there are Rune troops approaching.

"Hey! Matthews! How long will it take you to get there? Rune has troops approaching, and we're aware of it. ”

Li Li shouted.

"Come on, hold on!"

Hughes glanced at the progress and responded, it seemed that he was not going to retreat.

"Qiaoyin, Wang Qiang, prepare to fight!"

Li Li said and brought out the Shenwei Pea Shooter.

Rune's troops are generally patrolled, and in order to take care of more areas around Misty City, their forces will be relatively scattered.

So as long as it's not the main force, or if the reinforcements are too concentrated, it shouldn't be difficult to deal with.

Sou! While!

A cloud-piercing arrow shining with cyan fireworks exploded in the sky, spreading out a dazzling dazzle, and it was estimated that the launch distance was less than a few hundred meters.

It was apparently the other side calling in reinforcements.

Li Li buckled his goggles, turned his back to [Poison Swamp], and focused on looking ahead.

The Corrupt Golem is gathering ahead, and the Corrupt Mantis is poised to strike.

In a short time, about 40 [elite cavalrymen] rushed over with their swords raised.

Li Li didn't pay much attention to this when he saw this, but the more than twenty [bombardiers] who appeared a moment later made his heart tighten.

Dressed in leather armor and with a scimitar hanging from their waists, these [bombardiers] rode ordinary horses that were not as strong as war horses.

There was a large straw basket tied to the back, and it was filled with fist-sized [spherical explosives].

Li Li knew that these [bombardiers] were not aimed at him.

Instead, it is used to prevent Hus from building a bridge or to restrain the [Poison Swamp Golem].

But he hit it right and put himself in a very unfavorable situation.

Because whether it is [Corrupt Golem] or [Corrupt Blade Mantis], they are very afraid of [Spherical Bomb].

The matter has come to this point, and I can only fight hard.

With Li Li as the center, the surrounding plants began to wither and wither rapidly, and countless spiked vines broke through the ground from the ground, and after surrounding the square unit for a while, they finally formed a moderately sized [Thorn Armor] set on the surface of the body.

"It's the people of Invincible City! This time I made a big profit, brothers! ”

The [cavalry captain] led by him recognized the identities of Li Li and the others through the corrupt troops, not only did not panic in the slightest, but was particularly excited.

The reason for this is that when the lord's troops are not participating in the war, they are often ordered to exterminate some beasts and monsters to protect the safety of the people in the territory.

Therefore, it is not like ordinary people who are frightened to weak their legs when they hear about corrupt creatures, but they will be full of confidence because of similar crusade experiences.

"Come on! Kill me! Death! ”

Wang Qiang ran to the front row and shouted very arrogantly, turned his head and began to flee for his life.

[Cavalry Captain] had a bloodshot in his eyes, whipped his horsewhip violently, and rushed straight over with a hideous face.

"Captain! Turn back! ”

"Captain! Stop it! ”

....

At first, the cavalry behind him didn't notice anything, but they just felt that this mage was too arrogant and dared to run to the front of the array to shout, and suddenly a wave of anger surged in their hearts.

But if you chase after it, you feel that something is wrong, because further forward is the [Poison Swamp], and if you don't turn around, you will risk even people and horses falling in.

"Phew!"

Under the shouts of the cavalry behind him, the [cavalry captain] suddenly came back to his senses and pulled the reins violently.

Sting! The horse made a sharp stop, and its front hooves landed less than an inch from the edge of the [Poison Swamp].

"It's dangerous!"

[Cavalry Captain] exclaimed, and breathed a long sigh of relief.

But who would have thought that at this moment, a pea flew and hit the back of his armor.

The force is so great that the armor on its back is roughly dented.

The Cavalry Captain flew off his horse and fell into the Poison Swamp.

Poof! Except for a few bubbles, nothing came up at the crash point.

"Flaming Sword! .... The phoenix fires the prairie fire! ... Holy Flame Slash! ... Burn... Day... Day.. What a chop! ”

On the other side, Shen Qiaoyin brandished a long sword with fire, and while indulging in killing the enemy, he shouted the names of various sword moves in his mouth, completely letting himself go.

At this moment, a [spherical explosive] that ignited the fuse flew over.

"Clever seal! That can't be cut!! ”

Li Li reminded loudly.

"The world... There's nothing I can't chop ever, pull! Knife! Chop! ”

Shen Qiaoyin said, put the sword into the sheath, bowed his head, and put on a very handsome posture of preparing the sword.

A sword strikes!

Rumble! Flames exploded, and black smoke billowed out.

With the explosion, Shen Qiaoyin fell to the ground.

Li Li pulled out the cork of the blood bottle and rushed over.

"Uh... That sword just now... Handsome or not? ”

Shen Qiaoyin, whose face was covered with black and gray, asked.

"Are you not in your right mind? Anyone who has ever played Fruit Ninja should know that explosive bombs cannot be chopped! ”

Li Li was also speechless.

"Sorry, I've only played Pop, it's fine... I can still fight. ”

"Don't hold on, lie down and drink the medicine honestly."

Li Li pressed Shen Qiaoyin, who wanted to stand up, back to the ground.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! ....

There are spherical bombs rolling down all over the place.

[Corrupt Blade Mantis] is forced to only take to the air and do a dive attack.

Although the [Corrupt Golem] can still be pushed forward, it will soon be blown to pieces under the dense explosion of the [Spherical Bomb].

I thought that the [Cavalry Captain] who led the team fell into the [Poison Swamp], which would bring a huge advantage, but the arrival of the [Bombardier] reversed the entire battle again.

The deafening explosion also brought Wang Qiang an epic weakening.

After all, his ears are almost deafened, and who can hear his taunts clearly.

Li Li turned around and began to build a bridge on the shore of the [Poison Swamp], seeking a way out.

Seeing the cubes quickly laid on the [Poison Swamp], Xius raised his hand to say something, but after all, he didn't say anything.

Li Li noticed this detail.

Once the bridge is built, the troops who have been caught in the bitter battle can naturally retreat at any time.

But at the same time, if Rune's troops take advantage of the victory to pursue, not only will the altar not be able to be saved, but Theseus will also be at risk of being captured.

After all, the cloud-piercing arrow had already been fired, and there were by no means more than these fifty or sixty troops coming.

Li Li stopped setting up the block in his hand.

"How much longer?"

Theseus was stunned for a moment, then looked at the progress of the altar and said, "The altar has been built, and the catalyst is about to be put in." ”

"I can trust you, right?"

"Of course! I'm the Lord of Mist! Descendants of the Lord of the Mist! ”

Hughes was resolute.

"Then I'll believe you once."

After Li Li finished speaking, he knocked out the block used to pave the bridge.

At this time, Xius seemed to have thought of something, and reached out to the other side.

A strong wind blew, and a thick white mist suddenly descended on the surroundings.

The Bombardier lost his general direction and immediately stopped attacking.

"This should hold up for a while."

With that, Hughes pushed open the wooden door and entered the altar.

"Thank you."

Li Li thanked him in a low voice, and was just about to turn his head to continue the battle, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of the marking of the wooden house altar in the goggles, and the whole person was stunned.

【Outdoor Toilet】

Grade: F

HP: 21/60

Trait: [Savage Construction] Due to the excessive focus on efficiency, the HP of the construction will fluctuate between 22%-43% when the construction is completed.

Introduction: It is very common to use wooden toilets in the field, remember to wash your hands after going to the toilet.

No, there must be something wrong.

Li Li covered his head, thinking that something must have gone wrong in that link.
