Wang Qinian, they stepped on the withered branches and leaves and rushed into the ancient castle that had long been abandoned.

Although it is an abandoned castle, it is much stronger than the town anyway, the walls of the castle are seven or eight meters high, and they are quite thick, and the walls can accommodate considerable manpower to defend them.

However, the moat had long since dried up, and only the useless rope bridge remained, and the gate of the castle was gone, and it was demolished by the townspeople.

It is not known who built the castle before, and the townspeople once wanted to move in it, but the people who moved in disappeared inexplicably after a year, and even the body could not be found, so no one dared to approach the castle at night.

Maybe there is something strange about this castle, but compared to the Ante Ant-Man who has already chased after him, no matter how dangerous it is, it is worth hiding in.

As soon as he stormed into the castle, Wang Qinian began to assign men, and now he has virtually become a commander.

He commanded half of the wood elves, as well as a few orcs and half-orc slaves to guard the entrance of the castle, yes, the end of the suspension bridge, where the gate of the castle was originally located.

If the castle is intact, it should be a way to raise the suspension bridge and close the gate, even if there is no moat, it will be difficult for the ant-men to jump on the wall seven or eight meters high, maybe they can use some improvised tools to attack the city, but the condescending defenders will make them suffer.

But now it's not as beautiful as originally expected, the suspension bridge has no way to rise, and the gate of the castle is broken, which is equivalent to unimpeded, so if you want to defend, you only need to rely on your life to pile up, the best place to defend can only be at the entrance, if you are rushed in by the Ante ant-man, then it is Wang Qinian who is the lintel and they are the ones who are down, of course, you must also pray that the Ante people do not chase a lot.

"What are you responsible for?" The current leader of the wood elves opened his eyes wide, under Wang Qinian's arrangement, the casualties of the wood elves would be extremely heavy.

"We're in charge of immediately searching this castle to see if there's anything to use. Wang Qinian didn't look back.

It dawned on the others that the wood elves who had not been assigned to guard the entrance also scattered and searched the castle, hoping to find something that could be used in battle.

Soon the Wood Elves found a mess of weapons or tools, tattered farm tools, sticks crawling with moths, and rusty spears.

"Damn!" Wang Qinian shouted angrily, I don't know how many years this ancient castle is, maybe decades, maybe hundreds of years, most of the tools in it are probably already broken, and some iron products placed in conspicuous places, such as weapons or something, may also be moved away by the greedy residents of the town, if it weren't for someone missing inexplicably inside, maybe it would have been moved cleaner.

"There should be a weapons storage room. It was Bernhard who spoke, his eyes twinkling in his remind.

"Are you sure?" said Wang Qinian.

"I'm sure that though I've never been here, there must be a room like this in the castle, where there will be weapons and armor, and even bows and arrows. ”

Wang Qinian clenched his fists, "I will definitely find it." ”

He was just about to walk away from the empty room in front of him, when he suddenly let out a sigh and fell back, and there was a headless iron statue in the corridor that was one meter eight high, oh, not an iron statue.

It was a full set of heavy infantry equipment put together like a human form, and perhaps there was some padding inside, which was very majesticly placed there, except for a helmet missing.

Of course, Wang Qinian didn't know that someone had taken the helmet at the beginning, so later there was a legend that it was precisely because the helmet was moved and the ghost hidden in the armor was released that someone would go missing, so this set of heavy infantry equipment was preserved.

It's really quite complete, in addition to the iron full-body armor, there is also a spear made of fine iron, which still looks very sharp, and it flashes with cold light under Wang Qinian's fire fold.

Wang Qinian sighed, "Good thing." ”

"Old John, old John, come here!" he shouted.

After a while, he called the slave catchers and said, "Put it on." ”

The slave catchers' eyes lit up and began to disassemble and help Old John put it on, but it was a pity that although Old John was the most powerful of the all, he also looked very inflexible after putting on this set of iron armor.

"Get dressed first and go out to help. Wang Qinian waved his hand, and there was already a scream at the entrance of the ancient castle, and the wood elves and Ante ant-man had already encountered.

By the time they returned, the Wood Elves had already engaged in a fierce battle with the pursuing Ante-Man with the tools they had just found or the broken weapons.

This battle is indeed much better than when rushing out of the town, first of all, the terrain is favorable, although the castle does not have a gate, but the wood elves are lined up and blocked at the entrance, and it is not so easy for Ante Ant-Man to rush in, and the two sides are walls, and the wood elves only need to pay attention to the front, do not worry about both sides. However, it is still the Wood Elves who suffer greatly, the natural toughness of the Ante Ant-Man's skin makes them have the protection of light leather armor, and although the Wood Elves have some weapons, their defense is really weak.

Fortunately, under the leadership of the female patrol leader Ciri, the wood elves were very brave, they lined up without flinching, once someone was injured, they would retreat and let other partners make up for it, and the injured would rest for a while, and the wound would condense, and they would ask to go into battle again.

"Bows and arrows must be found. Wang Qinian said to himself, it was too wasteful to let the wood elves fight like this

"Old John, don't give him that Changrou, he can't even walk, just let him take his sword, well, if you can hold it, allow you to take the iron shield again. ”

In addition to the helmet, Old John can be said to be fully armed at this time, Wang Qinian unloaded his spear and gave it to another slave catcher to use, only letting him carry a much lighter serpentine sword into battle, anyway, he was mainly used as a meat shield.

Old John had a very good effect after coming out of the battle, he rushed to the front, although standing in the middle of the corridor, due to his own weight, his attack was very inflexible, but it attracted most of the attacks of the Ant-Man, which greatly reduced the pressure on the wood elves.

The iron armor on his body was too hard for Ante Ant-Man to destroy, but was forced to retreat.

"Don't rush out of the corridor, just block there and fight them!" Wang Qinian shouted.

The crisis seems to have been temporarily resolved, and in addition to the remaining twenty or so Ante Ant-people who were chasing at the beginning, there were less than twenty more, and they could be defended by relying on the terrain.

But don't you really have to worry about it? Wang Qinian took a look at the environment, there is also an arrow tower on the wall, and he has a wooden elf in his hand, if there is a bow and arrow, if there is a bow and arrow.

Cheers rang out from the hallway, and the Ante Ant-Man retreated after dropping a dozen corpses.

Both the wood elves and the slave catchers jumped up with joy, Wang Qinian was also very happy, and ordered old John and half of the wood elves to rest at the corridor, and arranged for someone to go to the wall to serve as a sentry, and the female elf Ciri volunteered to receive the task.

Next, Wang Qinian continued to search in the ancient castle, and finally found the storage room that he had been trying to find, and there was indeed equipment in it, about twenty spears and short knives, and a few pairs of leather armor, but the most important thing was to find a bow and arrows, about seven or eight bows and enough arrows.

"Also!" Wang Qinian shouted, his spirits lifted, the wood elf got the bow, and it was easier to defend.

He called for someone to move things out, and bad news came from Ciri, and the Antes came again.

To be precise, it was brought over, and looking from the wall, you can see several figures rushing out of the town and running towards the castle, so a large number of Ante ant-people in the town were also attracted over.

Wang Qinian's face changed suddenly, it was a good thing to find weapons and bows and arrows, but even if there were twice as many bows and arrows, they might not be able to hold the large army of the Ante Antmen.

"Hope is just a tribe. Bernhard didn't seem particularly frightened or relaxed at first, but when he saw more Antes being lured, his brow furrowed.

"Even if it's just a tribe, we can't hold it. Wang Qinian said in a low voice.

An Ant-Man tribe also has more than 500 people, but the terrible thing is that all of them are soldiers, which is equivalent to more than 500 warriors.

Now the number of Ant-Men who have been brought over is more than twice the number of people in the castle, and if more Ant-Men arrive, this castle without a gate will definitely not be able to defend it.

Bernhard smiled and didn't answer.

There were about seven or eight people rushing out of the town, followed by two dog-like animals, but Ant-Man kept chasing after him.

The two sides engaged in a desperate struggle as they advanced towards the castle, with people dying as they progressed, but for every Terran who fell, at least two or three Ante ant-men followed suit.

This is mainly because three of the seven or eight people are particularly powerful, and Wang Qinian has already seen them clearly, they are the three leaders of the slave hunting team, Cockland, Tuxman, and his teacher Zanqi.

Wang Qinianxun weighed the pros and cons, if he went out to rescue them at this time, the advantage was that he might be able to save Cockland and them, and this time his own combat strength would be greatly increased, with these three people, the ancient castle would be easier to defend.

But there are also very obvious disadvantages, going out to rescue these three people will inevitably lead all the Antes over, in addition, Zanqi and them entered the ancient castle, it is difficult to say whether their own mixed team with wood elves and slave catchers as the main force can still be as united as now, and Zanqi probably will not allow himself to have the current command.

Wang Qinian silently watched Tuxman being pounced on by a black ant warrior, and never spoke.

As soon as Tuxman was thrown to the ground, in addition to the black ant warrior, three or four more ant soldiers pounced, rolling and fighting on the ground, and soon each other's flesh and blood blurred.

Only Cockland and Zanzie were left, and when they saw Tuxman's misery, they had no intention of turning back, and continued to run forward.

Both of them were already in tatters, and the serpentine sword in Cochran's hand was long gone, only a dagger that was deformed into YanzhΓ²ng.

Zanzi was a little more presentable, he also had two constructing wolves by his side, although he didn't have much magic left, but the constructing wolves helped him fend off a few times, giving him a chance to run all the time.

The castle was getting closer and closer to the two, and Corkran's face twisted strangely, and he gasped: "It's almost there, it's almost there, as long as you can let me rest inside, your apprentices and those elves are inside, and Old John." ”

But the ants are getting closer and closer, and they may stop them before they enter the castle, unless the people in the castle are willing to come to their rescue.
