Chapter 404 Bloody and hard fighting, take advantage of the emptiness
The king of ghouls, Hogus, personally led his army to attack Dalong County!
As the commander of the Knights of the Silver Hands, Davi Cloverd, who was stationed in Lake Dalone and the Sodomir River, he also received news immediately during the operation of the Ghoul King Hogus!
You should know that the King of Ghouls Hogus is the leader of the natural disasters in this area. Therefore, Davi Cloverd and the King of Ghouls can be said to be the two leaders of this area. If it is just an underground army, these two people may not care. After all, this area is not big or small, but it is not small. There are many villages like Dalun County. However, when the King of Ghouls Hogus, the leader of the Scourge Corps, took action by himself, Davi Cloverd also got the accurate news at the first time.
In this way, as the highest commander of the Knights of the Silver Hand in this area, Davi Cloverd must go to Daruen County, whether for the sake of his hometown of Daruen County, which he loved extremely, or to take this opportunity to behead the leader of the Scourge Corps, the Scourge Corps, in this area, and win a turnaround for the Knights in this area!
Therefore, while the Ghoul King Hogus personally led his most elite troops to run to Dalong County, Dawei Cloverd also gathered all the powerful paladins he could call, and personally led the troops to move forward, one step ahead of Hogus and came to Dalong County!
After seeing Joseph Redpass, the two childhood friends did not have greetings, and Davey told Joseph the news that the Ghoul King Hogus personally led the undead legion to kill. Although the strong knight's face had not changed, a trace of despair flashed through his eyes!
Unlike Davi Cloverd, although Joseph was strong, he joined forces with a small team of Paladins of the Silver Hand Knights stationed in the village to repel attacks that wiped out five natural disasters. However, in this process, he had already discovered how bad the situation was!
As the leader of the militia in Dalong County and also the strongest person in the village, Joseph naturally did not see the victory of repelling the undead of the natural disaster again and again like others. What he saw was that these five attacks by the Scourge Legion were stronger than each other, and the Silver Hand Knights had reinforcements in the first three times, but in the last two times, the reinforcements of the Silver Hand Knights disappeared.
For others, this is not a big deal. But for Joseph Redpass, who guards Darron County, this is the most important thing!
Joseph knew everyone that in this area of Dalong County, the highest commander responsible for resisting the attack of the Scourge is Davey Cloverd of the Knights of the Silver Hands, who is also a native of Dalong County and his childhood partner. It can be said that even if there are no reinforcements in other places, there will definitely be Dalong County here!
So, now there are no reinforcements from the Knights of the Silver Hand in Dalong County, so that only means that the entire battle situation has become worse, and even Dawei cannot draw personnel to support Dalong County!
Sure enough, when Joseph saw Davi again, Davi told him a more serious situation. The leader of the Scourge Legion, the King of Ghouls, personally led the undead legion to rush here, and although Davi also led his army to block the attack, he clearly saw that the number of troops led by Davi was not large. Although it was possible that these people were all strong people, Joseph clearly sensed that among these troops, the most powerful one was his old friend Davi, and the most other people were the small group of paladins stationed in the village.
How can such a bad situation prevent Joseph from feeling despair?
Sure enough, the development of the battle was as Joseph expected. When the king of ghouls Hogus personally led his army, the king of ghouls surrounded Dalong County and used the huge Scourge Legion to rush the entire Dalong County to escape from water. Then he began the Scourge Legion's sea of human tactics that the Scourge Legion was best at, using the cheapest and most despicable undead creatures to impact the defense circle of Dalong County. Although these undeads could not even reach five combat power, they could not resist the number of these undeads. They were everywhere, and they continued to kill them. When the paladins of the Silver Hand Knights guarding Dalong County and the Dalong County militia led by Joseph finally killed a wave of undeads, but in a blink of an eye, the second wave of undeads with more numerous numbers came over again...
The undead creatures are tireless, have no fear, and do not know how to retreat. Therefore, they are like waves, constantly attacking, while the paladins and militias guarding Dalong County are living people, their flesh and blood are still tired, so they have to shrink the defense circle. In this way, as the undead creatures continue to attack, the defense circle of Dalong County is shrinking at a speed visible to the naked eye.
When these exhausted paladins and militia retreated to the entrance of Longjun village, they stopped, and then gritted their teeth and resolutely fought desperately with these undead creatures...
They can no longer retreat, and they will retreat into the village of Dalong County. This would be like letting these Scourges enter Dalong County. This is not only a great shame, but also exposes the unarmed civilians of Dalong County to the butcher knife of the Scourges!
As these tireless undead creatures continued to rush, both the Paladin of Silver Hand and the Daron County militia led by Joseph began to suffer casualties. Moreover, as time passed, the casualties grew stronger like snowballs. Joseph saw the militias around him taught by himself, the men of Daron County who were familiar with him, fearlessly resisting the cold and pale bone without any sanity, the dirty and smelly ghoul. Although their will was firm and their fighting spirit was still boiling, their bodies could not keep up with their will. Finally, under the rusty and broken swords of the white bone skeletons, the ghoul's sharp claws, they died tragically...
When Joseph saw his old friend Davie walking to the entrance of the village, shouting loudly that Hogus, the King of Ghouls, was going to fight to the death with the leader of the Scourge. His despair increased a little more. Joseph knew that his old friend would not do this if he had a glimmer of hope, because everyone knew that although the Scourge Legion was terrible, it was not without weaknesses. Most of these Scourge Legion were not mentally or were lowly. They must have elites at the leader level to lead. Otherwise, this Scourge Legion would slowly collapse, so it was very useful to kill the leader's beheading tactics directly. However, because of this, the Scourge Legion learned its lesson after repeated beheading tactics. Now, the elite undead at the level of the Ghoul King are extremely powerful, and it is not so easy to use the beheading tactics.
Even Joseph knew such information, let alone Davie Cloverd.
But Davi still wants to fight to the death with the King of Ghouls Hogus. This is not a beheading tactic. This is Davi wants to pull the King of Ghouls Hogus to die together, causing the Scourge Legion to lose its leader and thus collapse. In the Darong County, Davie will self-find himself, and even if he dies, Joseph is in the village, and he can still organize effective defenses. As one goes up and down, Darong County will be preserved in the attack of the Scourge Legion!
But Davi was wrong!
Or, Davie thought too ideally and too simple!
Because, although the Ghoul King Hogus personally led the army to attack this time, there is not only the Ghoul King Hogus in this Scourge Corps, but there is another leader, he is the Death Knight Maduk in Black!
