Chapter 233: Erath City
Eras City, as the first important town in the north of the Heavenly Saint Empire, this huge high city built on a mountain is completely built on a high mountain. Dozens of mountains, through hundreds of bridges in the sky, have formed the highest fortified city in the entire continent. As the strongest defensive main city in the north of the Heavenly Saint Empire, it not only has a steep geographical advantage, but also has beautiful scenery. The tallest building in the city is the blue and white spire city lord's mansion, originally several continuous mountains were high on the top, and later a super strong man in order to show his respect for the city lord, he flattened the top of each mountain, and the city lord's mansion will appear so prominent.
Agaso was not in his lord's mansion, he stood on the highest boulder wall in the north, large enough to run eight horses, and looked out at the dense demonic beasts at the end of the mountain, and a hint of inappropriateness flashed in his heart. The usual hordes of Warcraft are also menacing like this, but Agaso doesn't have such a different feeling. This feeling made Agaso feel a little nostalgic in his heart, however, as a veteran of a hundred battles, Lord Agaso, who is sixty-five years old this year, is an authentic saint-level powerhouse, and there are several saint-level powerhouses under him, which is also the arrangement of the Heavenly Saint Empire Hutton Bixia.
The first town in the north must have the appearance of the first town, and of course, the geographical location of Erass City is too important. Once the city of Erath is lost, the monsters will pour down from the north, and the rich plains of the Virgin Mary will be like an undefended virgin, completely open to the thousands, hundreds of millions of monsters.
Lord Agaso had been stationed in this city for decades, and he had never been afraid, because he was not only strong in his own right, but also backed by the most powerful Heavenly Saint Empire in the entire continent. Speaking of the Heavenly Saint Empire, I have to talk about the arduous process of the founding of the Heavenly Saint Empire. Before the Continental Heavenly Sacred Calendar, it was called the religious calendar, or the revival calendar, which was dominated by the two holy religions of light and darkness, and hundreds of different religions were crisscrossed. At that time, human beings were completely uncivilized, all of them were poisoned by religious teachings, and they were completely under the absolute rule of religion.
Of course, this has to be traced back to the ancient times before the Revival, when humans coexisted with monsters, elves, dwarves, goblins, and many other races left over from the primeval era. Humanity struggled among many races, and eventually, religion brought them all together and formed a powerful force that carved out a human territory. The teachings of religion exist as a spiritual liliang, which helps human beings to maintain spiritual absolute obedience in the outward war, defeat fear, defeat evil, and finally usher in the prosperity of human society.
Of course, with the passage of time, with the progress of people's thinking, religion, the doctrine of the foolish people, was gradually rejected by everyone, and finally the mighty Yabu the Great defeated the major religions, and hunted down the two most powerful papapacies, the light and dark papal sees, to establish a powerful centralized empire. How will the Heavenly Saint Empire, which has stood for thousands of years, continue its glory? As a loyal follower of Hutton Bixia, Lord Agaso knows that as long as Hutton Bixia gives an order, they will be fearless, indomitable, and fight to the death.
However, the offensive situation of Warcraft this year is completely changing, and the biggest change is the strength, which is completely up a step compared to previous years, and the other is that Warcraft's offense is obviously organized. These are not what Lord Agaso is worried about, what worries Lord Agaso the most is that the group of monsters is changing, this kind of half-human, half-beast half-orc, with human wisdom, the courage of Warcraft, and there is organization and discipline. When a group of powerful creatures have these things, it is not a simple wave of monsters, it is no longer a group of rabble, they are completely a powerful army, as long as this army breaks out, this seemingly the strongest high city in the whole continent may soon collapse in an instant.
The huge dark blue cloak rattled in the strong wind, and the yellow and white inlaid gold crown of saint and courage on the shoulders shone brightly in the fiery red sun. With a wave of his hand, thousands of rows of crossbow arrows behind him broke through the air, densely packed, covering the sky and the sun, and the sky suddenly darkened. In an instant, most of the demonic beasts scattered all over the mountains were nailed to the ground, and the screams were intertwined. The blue sky lit up again, and in the sun, Master Agaso frowned, and there was no joy in his cold eyes. The power of these crossbow arrows is very large, and they can almost shoot through a stone wall of about twenty centimeters, but for the thousands of demonic beasts, it seems that the striking power is completely insufficient.
Many of the demonic beasts that did not kill with a single blow broke their arrows and continued to charge. Their goal was clear, the gate was not very wide, and it was the only way to storm into the city. For there are only a few exits in the whole city of Erath, and the rest of the place is either a steep mountain wall or a deep mountain stream. This is also the reason why Weishenme called this high city the first fortified city on the mainland, after all, there are only a few city gates, and after so many years of renovation and reinforcement, the city gates are also built on the steep slope of the mountain. It's easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it's definitely a dangerous place that you can't open up.
A large number of demonic beasts under the mountain continued to sweep up from the entire hillside, the roars of the demonic beasts, the screams, and the chaotic steps, zuihou gathered into a powerful demonic beast iron stream at the city gate, and hit the all-steel iron gate wave after wave. Lord Agaso was not in a hurry, the rows of crossbow arrows behind him were fired in turn again, wave after wave of demonic beasts fell, and the group of demonic beasts that followed one after another still stormed the city gate. Lord Agaso's gaze was instantly frozen, and along the path by the river, a powerful army of orcs began to surge forward step by step.
Lord Agaso was shocked by the weapons and siege equipment in the hands of the orcs, the standard format of scimitars and wooden shields, the long ladders, and the high crashes, all of which showed that this was an organized attack. It's not like the previous outbreak of the Warcraft Tide, but it just attacked humans everywhere outside the city, burned, killed and looted, and Zuihou walked away.
Originally, there were several relatively large military strongholds in the northernmost part of Erath City, which were used to block the attack of the Warcraft, and it was clear from the situation that those so-called strongholds had been invaded by the Warcraft. No one expected that this time the tide of demonic beasts would be so violent, and in less than a month, they would actually break through the imperial defensive front one after another.
Agaso looked at the orc army in front of him, and his long-standing cognition was shattered, and for the first time, he subversively recognized the power of Warcraft. The petition for help had been sent out ten days earlier, and of course, the fall of the northernmost large area north of the city of Eras had made Lord Agaso's mood no better. Wherever the monster passed, a large number of refugees poured into Erass City, which greatly increased the pressure on Erass City. Although there is enough food stored here, if the empire does not send reinforcements, then the refugees in the streets of Eras will definitely cause unrest.
Murong Yu was hiding in a tavern in the city, tasting inferior soju, a grain wine made from mountain spring water, with a very high degree. Although Murong Yu said that he had absolute confidence in his strength, he still regretted it very much in his heart.
If you had accelerated all the way to the Nightmare Forest, you would definitely not have been in a dilemma. After killing Delaney, Murong Yu chose to travel by horse, and did not rush at full speed. On the one hand, it is to replenish the fighting energy and magic power consumed in the recovery war, and on the other hand, it is also to be able to feel the folk scenery of the Heavenly Saint Empire, of course, the most important thing is that Murong Yu must study the magic array.
The power of this magic array is obviously powerful, and in order to be able to combine magic with magic array, Murong Yu can be regarded as extremely attentive. As a result, Murong Yu only came here three days ago, but he also learned from the refugees that a large area of land in the north had fallen, so he had to stay here temporarily.
Murong Yu is not in a hurry, he likes this city on the high mountain very much, the roads in the north are basically filled with demonic beasts, if you want to go, you have to take a detour, it is better to stop and rest, although the current situation in this city is very tense, however, it should still be very safe in the city.
In fact, from the crowd on the street, there was no tension at all, and everyone knew that relying on the city's strong defenses and several saint-level powerhouses in the city. It can be said that as long as you enter the city, then you will be safe, and you can sleep soundly. I heard that Warcraft has launched more than a dozen attacks today, but there has been no progress. Agaso's magician legion dealt a heavy blow to the demonic beasts, but Murong Yu knew that the demonic beasts would never give up on their laurels, and they would definitely make a comeback.
As for whether the Beast God Lord was really in the Nightmare Forest, Murong Yu didn't know the bottom in his heart, where this kind of god-level powerhouse was hiding to heal his injuries, Murong Yu didn't dare to speculate. At the same time, Murong Yu also knew that his nightmare trip did not seem to be going smoothly this time, and he had already become the current situation before he saw the nightmare. Murong Yu didn't dare to act rashly, that was because he hadn't yet grasped how many holy beasts were used in the demonic beasts besieging Eras City, or the existence of surpassing holy beasts, once it was determined, Murong Yu would definitely continue to move forward.
The Filatis Bar is not very big, it is only one street away from the south gate, and the business of several restaurants next to it is very hot. The streets were filled with fleeing people, with the occasional mercenary or adventurer entering. Originally, Lord Agaso had arranged several places dedicated to the resettlement of refugees, but they were already overcrowded. Refugees who have not been resettled have to rest in place, which also causes congestion on the streets.
