With Haas's assurance, Sarren's next move was to be given the green light.

"Boom!"

As soon as Sarena left the coalition camp outside Dunhold Castle, Jean, who had been waiting for him, ordered the bombardment of Dunhold's walls to begin.

Quel'Salas has begun to use conical cannonballs with built-in arcane magic.

This streamlined ammunition can fly farther after being accelerated by rifling rotation, and after hitting an object, the mechanism in the shell will be triggered by the impact force, causing the built-in mana to explode at once, causing a certain range of mana explosion damage.

In contrast, Kurtilas's artillery technology had not yet developed to that point, and it still used heavy solid round shells, which could only rely on the impact force of the cannon's discharge to cause damage to objects.

Even so, as the power of gunpowder advanced, a salvo of these solid bullets could cause no small damage to the city walls.

When the battle for Dunhold Castle began, Saljan took to the skies and flew into the castle again.

The mercenaries that Blackmore had recruited at great expense, as well as Dunhold's original World War II veterans, focused all their attention on the enemy outside the city, and the defense inside the city was significantly weakened.

While diving down from a high altitude, Sarena stumbles upon a drunken middle-aged man in fine clothes on the top balcony of the Lord's Castle.

"That's ......"

Slowing down his descent, Sarjan hovered in mid-air to take a closer look at the bearded man who had stumbled underfoot.

[Blakemore? 】

[It should be, he finally gave up. 】

[The enemy is already under the city, and the movement of the artillery salvo is so loud that it is impossible to pretend to be an ostrich. 】

[Let him go, the combat effectiveness of Blakemore when he was young was okay, but under the erosion of wine for so many years, eighty percent of his strength did not advance but retreated, and it was impossible for him to have any impact on the battlefield situation with his personal strength. 】

Anyway, Blakemore also looked drunk, and Sarren boldly turned on his Eagle Eye to observe his state.

Sure enough, Blackmore's warrior rank was oddly 51 (45).

51 should represent the strength of his peak, while 54 is the strength that he can exert with his current physical fitness.

Saljan smiled disdainfully: "Willing to fall." ”

Eagle-eye subjects are usually keenly aware that someone is watching them.

But Blackmore, who was paralyzed by alcohol, didn't react at all, and still paced back and forth on the balcony with a wine bottle.

At the same time that the Battle of Dunhold officially began, Thrall, as a gladiator, naturally received a call-up order.

But he ignored the arrogant official who came to report the news, and knocked the other party unconscious with a punch that caught him off guard.

Since Thrall had already entered the orc shelter several times, the soldiers guarding the gate had already recognized him.

Thrall easily used the lord's attempt to recruit orcs into battle and once again infiltrated the containment camp.

Under Thrall's call, the orcs who could still raise the will to fight set foot on the battlefield again after many years in order to gain freedom.

The orcs, who had completely rioted, took down the few remaining guards in the shelter with little hindrance, and under Thrall's guidance, they obtained the weapons they needed from the arsenal of the shelter guards.

Just as the city was in turmoil, Taresha, who was mentally prepared in advance, immediately realized that the time had come to escape from Dunhold.

Early this morning, Talesa, who heard that the war was about to begin, called the Folkston, who were working in the castle, to her room on the grounds that she missed her parents.

Blackmore's other mistresses were unhappy about this, but the war that threatened Castle Dumbhold was about to begin, and no one was in the mood to accuse Taresa of cowardice.

Is Taretha timid?

Salian doesn't think so.

On the contrary, this kind human girl is brave enough to do something dangerous for her family that she has never experienced before.

"Boom!"

Just as all the defenders, including Blackmore, were concentrating on resisting the enemy's attack, a violent explosion suddenly sounded in the southeast corner of Dunhold Castle.

Soaring, who was hovering over the castle, first noticed Thrall, who was not far from the scene of the explosion.

"Oh? Goblin explosives? Interesting. ”

Now that he has decided to escape from Dunhold as a test for Thrall, Sarean has no intention of interfering in his escape plan, leaving everything to Thrall himself, he only needs to protect Taressa, who would die here in the original history.

In order to prepare for the war that would sooner or later take place between him and the kingdom of Alterac, Blakemore rushed to the hospital to purchase a lot of war materials, including a batch of high explosives sold to him by a goblin profiteer at a high price.

It turns out that the power of these explosives is sufficient, but the stability is worrying.

According to the instructions given by the goblin merchant, these high explosives should explode within 10-15 seconds of lighting the fuse.

But when Blackmore sent someone to conduct the test, the hapless tester didn't have time to evacuate, and the flames burned out the fuse in less than 2 seconds, directly blowing the tester into a ball of minced meat.

Blakemore is also a general-type nobleman who has come down from the battlefield, and he has seen a lot of dead people.

But it was the first time that Blakemore had seen such an unappetizing and tragic scene as it had been, and he almost vomited all the breakfast he had eaten not long ago.

Witnessing the shocking effects of goblin technology, Blakemore did not dare to use these dangerous defects anymore, and threw all the high explosives in the warehouse.

Blakemore didn't dare to use the soldiers who didn't feel sorry for him, just to avoid the explosives that exploded in the city from hurting the city walls, and Thrall and the orcs didn't care about it.

Speaking of engineering products made by goblins...... Anyway, Salian thinks that people with more luck are better suited to use them.

To bomb or not to bomb, it's a matter of probability.

The orc sent by Thrall to light the fuse was lucky, the fuse strictly adhered to the instructions and only detonated the explosives 12 seconds after it was lit.

While there are always all sorts of weird surprises that come with things made by goblins, if these products work properly, the results are usually not compromised.

It is said that high explosives are high explosives, and five explosive packages were detonated in parallel, blowing a big gap in the wall of the southeast corner of Dunhold at one time.

Thrall was also a little uneasy about the goblin technology, and when he saw that the city wall was successfully blown up, he breathed a sigh of relief, and stood up with his battle axe in his hand to give orders.

"Come on! That's the freedom you want! But escaping Dunhold Castle is only the first step, get moving! Let's all go to the meeting point! ”

One of the orc veterans with a relatively calm temperament took a deep look at Sal: "What about you?" Young compatriots? ”

Sal grinned: "I have other things to do, don't worry about me, I will definitely arrive on time." ”

At the same time, Taressa, who had just reached the gate of Blakemore Castle, was in some trouble.

The guards who remained at the castle continued to strictly follow Blackmore's orders, refusing to let the Folkston family go on the grounds that it was unsafe outside.

Just as Talesa was anxiously trying to convince the guards, a large dark purple bird suddenly fell from the sky, flicked its wings and fanned a whirlwind, sweeping all the guards at the castle gate into it.

A whirlwind like a drum washing machine quickly swept the guards unconscious, and Saljan dissipated the spell just in time to land on the low wall beside Taresha, who looked suspicious.

Salian tilted his head and said to the three Taressa, "What are you waiting for? Why don't you rush to the agreed meeting place? Thrall has blasted the walls open and will be coming to pick you up soon. ”

"Hmm...... Well? ”

Hearing Sarjan's familiar voice, Talesa subconsciously nodded in agreement, and then she suddenly realized that something was wrong, staring back and forth at Sarren, who was still in the form of a storm crow, in amazement.

"You...... Will it become a bird? ”

Saljan rolled her eyes angrily: "Stupid girl! Is now the time to care about such things? Don't go yet! ”

"Oooh! Good. ”

Talesha, who had missed her attention, came back to her senses, and turned her head to the Folkestons, who also looked surprised, and said, "Mom and Dad, come with me, Sal should already be waiting for us." ”

Just as Taresa was about to take her parents on her way, a loud tongue roar suddenly came from the top of the castle.

"Rebel...... Traitor! ”

"Boom~"

A fairly tall figure jumped from the top floor with a heroic leap.

Although her feet almost slipped, she finally relied on the impact of gravity to gain a foothold on the ground and block Talesa with a frightened look on her face.

Taresa subconsciously opened her arms in front of her elderly parents, and whispered to Sarjan with trembling lips, "He...... He is Lord Lord, Edras Blackmore. ”

"Hmm...... I know. ”

Salian lowered his eyelids helplessly: "Won't it really go so well...... But looking at him like this, it's not that difficult. ”
