416. Helik the Upright
Miss Channing stood on the walls of the castle in the North Mythril Mines, her long silky hair blown by the bitter north wind......
She looked into the distance, and a group of headhunters gathered on the opposite hillside, this time they entered the northern part of the Sudazor Mountains again, just to know if there was a griffin near the North Mithril Mine.
After a few days of exploring, the headhunters were able to determine that the griffons were not nearby.
Headhunters who had been hiding everywhere appeared again, gathering on the slope opposite the North Mithril Mine, putting more pressure on the North Mithril Mine.
If the headhunters want to enter the Sudasol Mountains, the North Mithril Mine will be a castle that they must conquer, otherwise once the Headhunters enter the Sudazor Mountains, they will be easily killed by the half-blood elf warriors in the North Mithril Mine.
And as the cattle herds of the Kassi and Sudaso Mountains continue to migrate south, headhunters will have to chase the herds to the ground.
At this time, the North Mithril Mine was like a wall, stretching across the southernmost part of the Sudasso Mountains......
A group of headhunters sit on the hillside, light a bonfire, wear the whole goat on a stick, and bake it slowly around the campfire, the smoke fills the air, and the aroma of goat fat wafts away, which will attract headhunters from farther away.
The half-blood elven warriors on the city wall were a little nervous, they were watching the movements of the group of headhunters, and some of the half-blood elven warriors had already hung the quiver around their waists and began to examine the arrows in the quiver......
Miss Qian Ning seemed very calm at the moment, squinting her slender eyes and staring at the group of headhunters.
She hoped that these headhunters would rush to the scene sooner......
The headhunters did not gather a thousand men and attack the castle, as Miss Channing thought, but spent the whole day on the hillside opposite the castle, and at night spread out the fur rolls they carried with them, and fell asleep near the campfire.
The next morning, the number of headhunters gathered on the opposite side of the hillside exceeded two thousand, and some of the headhunters had already tried to get close to the North Mithril Mine, but they didn't get too close, after all, the arrow tower in the corner of the North Mithril Mine was equipped with a cloud-piercing crossbow.
This bed crossbow can shoot crossbow arrows seven or eight hundred meters......
The Headhunter will not rush into the effective range of the Cloud Piercing Crossbow until he has launched an attack.
On the hillside, there are always some headhunters joining the opposite camp, and the longer you wait, the more headhunters will be on the opposite side.
This made the atmosphere inside the North Mithril Mine solemn again.
Miss Channing climbed the wall again, and saw a group of headhunters already standing out of the range of the cloud-piercing crossbows, staring at the castle.
Then, one of the headhunters raised his blade and let out a roar towards the sky, followed by the roars of all the headhunters......
The headhunters strode almost simultaneously, braving the oncoming crossbow bolts and charging towards the North Mithril Castle.
This time, at least a thousand headhunters rushed to the castle at the same time, and they used the tactics of crowds to occupy the city wall as soon as possible.
The footsteps of the headhunters shook the entire hillside......
A sharp and piercing whistle also sounded on the head of the city in the North Mithril Mine, and when the whistle sounded, the half-blood elf warriors on the city wall took out their forest hunting bows one after another, aiming at the headhunters rushing up from the opposite side, and when they rushed to the range of the hunting bows, they threw a rain of arrows into the sky at the same time.
The headhunters braved the arrows thrown from their heads and quickly rushed under the city walls.
During this time, some headhunters fell in a rain of arrows, but many more rushed under the walls.
These headhunters have super climbing ability, and as a large number of headhunters rush to the city, the half-blood elves on the city wall have thrown away the forest bows in their hands, and there are already elven warriors behind them placing entire boxes of metal ingots at the head of the city.
They only need to turn around and grab the zinc ingots and throw them down the city, these metal ingots are thrown from the city wall, the fall process is accelerating, and finally smashing on the body of the headhunter, even if the headhunter's skull is carved from rock, it will be directly smashed by the metal ingots at this moment......
Headhunters farther away from the city walls threw short flying spears at the city, and from time to time, half-blood elf warriors were stabbed by short flying spears.
The half-blood elf warriors on the arrow tower shoot arrows one after another, and there are constantly headhunters hit by arrows, this kind of wolf tooth arrow has six barbs, once it is shot into the body of the headhunter, it is easy to pull out, forcibly pull out the arrow, it is bound to be pulled out at the same time with a piece of meat.
To treat the wounds caused by this arrow, you need to use a skinning knife, cut a cross-shaped gap around the arrow, and then slowly remove the wolf's tooth arrow.
Headhunters don't do this when they fight, they will just break the wolf's tooth arrow, leaving the arrow in their body......
The metal ingots that fell from the city continued to smash some headhunters.
At this moment, nearly two thousand headhunters completely surrounded the castle of the North Mithril Mine.
A group of headhunters hiding in the gap between the arrow tower and the city wall had climbed to two-thirds of the height of the city wall, and once they climbed the city wall, it meant that the city head melee would start immediately.
Miss Channing had retreated behind the city wall, her gaze crossed the city wall, looked at the narrow mountain ridge to the southwest, frowned and whispered:
"Why haven't you come yet......?"
Before Miss Qian Ning's words fell, a row of half-blood elf warriors suddenly appeared on the mountain ridge on the southwest side.
These half-blood elven warriors lined up a full two kilometers on the mountain.
They were wearing all kinds of armor, and the weapons in their hands were also varied, and the half-blood elf warriors standing in the center were the first to rush down from the hillside, and the half-blood elf warriors behind hurriedly followed, instantly covering a large area of the hillside......
Hearing the shouts of killing coming from behind frightened the headhunters who were besieging the city......
Although the headhunters had already surrounded the city wall, and even a small group of headhunters had rushed up the city wall, the number of half-blood elf warriors rushing up from behind them was too much, and the black pressure was overwhelming, covering almost the entire mountain.
Although these half-blood elven warriors do not have the same style of standard armor, they are also fully armed.
Although they did not ride horses, they were able to take a charging stance close to their legs......
Soon, the half-blood elven warriors who rushed up from behind collided with the headhunters.
They are obviously different from these half-blood elf warriors on the city wall, they are experienced in combat, and when they fight with the headhunters, they are also extremely ruthless, rushing to the rear of the headhunters in one breath, and the two sides collide together......
To Miss Channing's surprise, these half-blood elf warriors turned out to be a group of battle-hardened guys.
As soon as they made contact, the half-blood elven warriors overthrew a large group of headhunters.
The headhunters immediately turned around and rushed to the back......
Since a large group of helpers had appeared on the other side of the hillside, Miss Channing immediately commanded the half-blood elf warriors at the head of the city:
"When these headhunters show their defeat, we will rush out together and have a good fight with them......"
The half-blood elf warriors on the city wall suddenly became more energetic, and even the speed of throwing metal blocks downward increased a lot.
The headhunters gathered nearly 2,000 people on the side of the North Mithril Mine, trying to quickly capture the North Mithril Mine with the advantage of the number of headhunters, but they never expected that behind the mountain on the west side of the castle, there would be an ambush for this group of half-blood elves who were twice as many as them.
The inner circle is the hard North Mithril Mine, and the outer circle is a large number of half-blood elf warriors who have completely wrapped two thousand headhunters in dumplings.
At the forefront were all sword dancers armed with heavy swords, these half-blood elves shimmered with gorgeous light, and they picked up their heavy swords to kill the headhunters' camp.
The half-blood elven warriors behind followed inseparously......
These half-blood elven warriors are like a tidal wave, slapping headhunters to death on the beach.
The half-blood elven warriors on the city walls frequently rained down arrows, throwing the headhunters into chaos.
Several headhunter leaders led their cronies to break through in all directions, and several half-blood elf captains immediately rushed out of the camp of this group of half-blood elf warriors, and they entangled several headhunter leaders.
The battle lasted until dark.
The whole castle was lit up, and there was still fighting outside the castle.
After several hours of bloody battles, there were only more than 500 of the nearly 2,000 headhunters left, and almost all of them were wounded, and their bodies had reached their limit.
The battle continued until midnight, and not a single headhunter escaped from the half-blood elven warriors.
All 2,000 headhunters died in the Northern Mithril Mines......
There were so many half-blood elves who couldn't live in the castle of the North Mithril Mines for a while.
A half-blood elf leader walked into the castle with several of his men, and Miss Channing herself waited at the castle gate......
The rest of the half-blood elven warriors could only clean up the battlefield outside, dispose of corpses, and set up camp on the western hillside.
"Isn't our Mayor Roy here?" After entering the castle, the half-blood elf leader asked Channing in a loud voice.
"The boss isn't here, he's in the south of the Gartsy Mountains, and you're from ......"
Miss Channing replied honestly.
"We're half-blood elven warriors from Fortress Town......," the half-blood elf leader briefly explained his origins.
Miss Channing stared at his scarred armor for a while before she figured out where these half-blood elf warriors came from, so she asked, "Are you rebels from Fortress Town?" ”
"Exactly, we heard from Reisander that on the Pagisto Plateau, elven warriors and headhunters are fighting, and it seems that the situation is not very optimistic, so we rushed over......"
The half-blood elf officer explained
Miss Channing's eyes widened as she stared at the leader of the rebel army who had escaped from the Barrier Village.
It was these guys who flipped the tables in Paddestow when the lords of Jarvis traded slaves in the city of Paddesto.
Miss Channing immediately decided to write a letter to Roy to report on what was happening in the North Mithril Mine.
……
Roy arrived in a hurry two days after the battle in the North Mithril Mines ended.
Carrying Roy through the air was Kaka.
When Roy flew to the North Mithril Mine, he saw a large number of half-blood elven warriors stationed on the slope outside the city wall, and on the hillside opposite the castle, there was a huge pile of corpses that were constantly bubbling with flames......
With so many half-blood elven warriors stationed here, Roy estimated the number of half-blood elven warriors at least five thousand......
These half-blood elf warriors did not continue to go north, probably because they were afraid of rashly entering the area controlled by the headhunters, and they were not familiar with that area, and they would not be able to let the headhunters sneak attack.
Roy first met Miss Channing, and then saw the half-blood elf leader in the castle, and he looked at the leader a little familiar, and after thinking about it carefully, he remembered that this was actually the blacksmith from the blacksmith shop in Fortress Town.
Last year, Roy asked him to mend a piece of the chain in the Book of Judgment.
Roy knew that there were many half-blood elf rebels in Fortress Town, and it was precisely in order to be able to supervise them that Earl Swinburn of the Silver Pegasus Legion would make Roy the mayor of the town, and then installed some Silver Pegasus Legion's eyeliner among the town's clerks.
"Helik has seen Mayor Roy......" Captain Helik took the initiative to stand up and greet Roy.
"Helik, why are you here?" Roy asked.
When the rebels were disbanded in Barrier, some of the rebels left Barrier and traveled to the Partington Plane together, while some of the rebels returned to Padestol, and the last part of the rebels stayed in Barrier and became the new residents of Barrier.
The group of rebel fighters brought by Helik this time are the rebels who stayed in Fortress Town.
"I know that Lord Jarvis sold some of the half-blood elf slaves to the Pagisto Plateau, and we planned to kill the Pagisto Plateau and rescue our compatriots trapped here, but unfortunately we were defeated by the Silver Pegasus Legion in Padstow City, and then we could only be trapped in the Barrier Village until the rebels disbanded, and we couldn't save the half-blood elf slaves here......" Helik explained to Roy.
"This time, we heard that the headhunters are preparing to launch a retaliation operation, mainly against the half-blood elves on the plateau, so we rushed over from Barrier Town, hoping to do something here!" Helik continued.
Roy didn't expect the rebels to be disbanded for so long, Helik stood up and shouted casually, and thousands of half-blood elves followed him to the Pagysto Plateau.
Fortunately, they arrived, and the situation on the plateau was now at an extreme disadvantage.
If it weren't for them suddenly appearing, the Northern Mithril Mine might have been breached by the headhunters......
Roy touched his forehead and said to Helik, "Since you were formerly a rebel, I can't get you to join the mine guards, but since you came to the Pagisto Plateau to deal with those headhunters, I can provide you with armaments and food." ”
There was a clear gleam of joy in Helik's eyes.
Roy knew very well that no matter how the situation on the Pagisto Plateau deteriorated, the Silver Pegasus did not want the rebel spark to be rekindled......
"You left Barrier Town like this, you may not be able to go back in the future, what do you plan to do in the future?" Roy asked.
Helik said calmly:
"Since we've run out of Barrier Town this time, we don't plan to go back, I'm going to take a look at the Pagisto Plateau first, and if possible, go north of the plateau, I believe...... The Partington plane is so big, we can live well no matter where we are! ”
Roy frowned, thinking to himself: Saying this in front of the mayor of Fortress Town, you guys are really upright......
