Chapter 72 The North's Offensive and Defensive Battle (7)

Chapter 72 North offensive and defensive battle (7)

When the city wall fortifications were repaired that afternoon, everyone quietly took the city wall to wait for the demon army to attack again. However, until the moon rose into the air, they did not see any bones or little demons.

Most players began to become loose during a long wait, and even the indigenous people felt a little tired. However, before everyone started to doze off, reinforcements arrived. Everyone exchanged positions with the replacement as if they were amnesty, and then they fell to their own kennel and snore.

The next day when the sun was already high, the third batch of reinforcements also arrived. The roar of the horse's neighing sound caused Chen Kai to quarrel from where he was sleeping. Although he wanted to go back to his bedroom to sleep, there was a dead man lying inside. Even if Chen Kai was brave, he would not dare to lie with the dead. As a result, he could only find a place to lie in the hall outside.

When Chen Kai lifted the tent and walked out, he found that the entire mountain fort was full of people. He squeezed out a lot of soldiers when he left the tent. After seeing Chen Kai come out of the tent, they directly glanced at him with contempt and turned his head away. Most of the time, the soldiers' eyes were eagerly looking at Amley Felke lying on the ridge, but the dragon sleeping on the ridge made the defense node of the city wall appear blind spots, because the dragon's body was too big, directly occupied the entire defense platform on the top of the mountain.

However, the entire camp was still very calm. Chen Kai quickly packed up his tent and evacuated it to the camp at the foot of the mountain. Archbishop Normath's body in the tent had been moved away with the big bed in Chen Kai's master bedroom, because if the body was moved, it might turn it into a pile of shattered powder. However, Chen Kai was happy to move the bed together. Although the price of the bed was not low at all, Chen Kai did not plan to take the bed that had been slept with by the dead, even if the other party was just the dead man in the game.

Chen Kai has been in the camp for five days. During this period, he asked for leave with Bass and went offline for one day. He cleaned up the dust for his grandparents and ordered some paper money. Chen Kai also went to Suzhou again before the evening and gave a note of incense for his former friends. However, when Chen Kai returned to the game again, he still did not hear the devil attacking North Pass.

At this time, more and more reinforcements arrived at the North Pass, and the supply of the army's materials began to be tightened. Although most of the food can be supplied through roads, not all places produce food. The grain attacks in the cities around Medogbo were originally supplied by Medogbo because it was located on the Medogplain and the land was extremely fertile. Therefore, the surrounding cities suddenly lost the Medogplain, the grain supply of Medogplain, and its own grain supply became very tight, especially the hundreds of thousands of travelers from other worlds made it very difficult for the supply of food that could just ensure food and clothing. In addition, it had to supply nearly 50,000 troops, so the city lords and grain supervisors around Medogplain had a few rounds of heads, and desperately demanded that Charles, who was responsible for command, eliminated the demons as soon as possible and put the Medogplain back into the control of the empire.

Almost every quarter of an hour, a group of messengers rushed to Charles' camp. They were all messengers sent by more than a dozen towns around. Charles was also very big at this time. In addition to facing the messengers of more than a dozen city lords, he had to argue with the local leaders of other temples. However, he was glad that the most difficult area archbishop of the Raven Temple was directly eliminated due to internal problems, and the area archbishop of the Goddess of Twilight had just fallen. However, more than a dozen bishops of different temples stood in Charles' tent and kept arguing, discussing the issue of distribution of the city lords and districts of Metuobo who had not been recovered. Charles looked at the high-level temple who were constantly quarreling, hoping to take out weapons to cut them all. Unfortunately, he was also a member of the Temple of Morning Light, and for the benefit of the temple, he was not allowed to keep talking with other temples.

"Not good!" An anxious voice suddenly interrupted the words of the Archbishop of the Shadow Temple, Miliel Silver, who was fighting against the heroes with great power. Wait until Archbishop Miliel had any expression, Charles pushed the crowd away and walked to the messenger and asked, "What's going on, what's wrong?"

"Motuobo...The demons in Motuobo City have disappeared! We searched all over the Motuo Plain but saw no shadows of those monsters." The messenger said in a angrily manner.

"What? Are you sure!" The Archbishop of the Earth Temple asked the messenger happily.

"Yes! Hundreds of our cavalry have run all over the entire Medog Plain, but no enemy has been seen. Where are you going? Your Excellency!" The messenger just finished speaking and found that the people in the tent ran away in an instant, and even the usual gentle and gentle Lord Charles ran away quickly. Because there is an unwritten rule on the continent of Ethia, the temple that was the first to recover the occupied city would be able to obtain the highest right to speak for the real city. For this right, all the temple senior officials began to summon their own subordinates and prepare to rush into Medog Bo.

When Bishop Ron took everyone to North Fort for defense according to his usual orders, he saw the North Fort that had become an empty shell, the walls that had been collapsed by his own people, and the huge smoke and dust gradually fading away.

"What's going on? Why are everyone exposing?" Bishop Ron said blankly at the almost empty North Hill Fort.

"Go away! Go away! The demons of Motuobo have run away!" A knight walking behind urged the troops in front to make way quickly. As he said that, he squeezed away Rongen and others who were blocking the entrance of the city wall and quickly rode out of the city wall.

At this time, a few kilometers south of the North Pass, a pair of fiery red eyes suddenly lit up in the caves on several excavated rocks, followed by the second and third pairs. The bones that were originally scattered around on the ground began to gradually condense, and the deepest part of the cave began to slowly become hot and emit red and black flames. In less than a minute, thousands of skeletons rushed out of the cave, followed by the only small demons, inferior demons and miscellaneous demons, and at the end were the more huge flame demons.

Bishop Rongen was extremely troubled as he watched the crowd who kept rushing out of the city wall to make money in Motuobo, especially because he always had an ominous premonition, so he immediately asked a few earth element mages to repair the broken wall, leaving only a few small doors in and out. However, as the news spread, more and more people wanted to go to Motuobo to make money, and the narrow door hole was almost squeezed out by them. Therefore, Bishop Rongen had to stand on the city wall and try his best to guide the crowd.

Chen Kai stood bored on the lookout table and looked around with his telescope. His horse was dead. Naturally, it was impossible to rush over a dozen kilometers to Motuobo and grab the trophy with professionals. Moreover, he was not short of money now, so he was very at ease on the lookout table to act as a lookout. Suddenly, his telescope swept across the southwest and saw a huge smoke and dust. "Can the person who ran out saw that the things were snatched and ran back?"

Chen Kai looked down at the swaying telescope, and this look almost scared him from the high observation deck. In the face of his head were indeed some adventurers and professions riding just now, but the ones chasing behind him were not, but the skeletons with pale bodies and the little demons flying in the air. Several tall flame demons followed the last with grinning smiles.

Chen Kai trembled and knocked hard on the rope that was holding the alarm bell. Each stroke was exhausted. In an instant, a very crisp clang sound rang out of the entire fortress, making the crowd who were rushing out of the city wall to make a fortune very quiet.

"Kaichen! Why are you knocking around?" Bass drank under the observation deck with a bottle of dwarf liquor, then shouted at Chen Kai above.

"The devil is here! Those devils have not disappeared, they are rushing towards here!" Chen Kai shouted down with all his strength.

"Tsk! Don't lie!" "Don't disturb me to get rich. If you don't go out, please give way!"

"Damn it! Everyone goes up to the city wall! Come up to the city wall quickly!" Bishop Rongen felt that what Chen Kai said might make sense, so he took out his telescope and looked into the distance. This look almost scared the middle-aged man in his forties to death. There were countless bones chasing hundreds of horse-riding soldiers rushing towards the North Pass.

Bishop Rong's bishop's robe is obviously more explanatory than Chen Kai's apprentice knight armor. At this time, as long as he is not stupid, he knows what to do. All the people who were originally crowded by the city wall and were about to go out turned around and rushed to the city wall defense platform at a faster speed. As for escaping, they did not think that once they became deserters, their own family and their parents would be humiliated. Therefore, deserters are the most despised in the world of Ethia, and some people would rather commit suicide than be deserters.

"Correction of crossbow arrows!" The highest-level commander left in the entire North Pass was only a few bishops and knight commanders. Therefore, Bass had to bite the bullet and become the commander of the crossbow defense, while Chen Kai swallowed his saliva and held a crossbow, and the person responsible for aiming at the fourth brother Fei Yun. There were also a few acquaintances on the crossbow next to them, and the same thief was also responsible for aiming and shooting. The thief who dropped the level not long ago was Dark Dagger.

"Come in here quickly! You group of soft-legged shrimps, earth element mages! Block the city wall for me, hurry up!" Bishop Rong En shouted to the people under the city wall.

"But there are still our people outside!" A earth elemental mage was unwilling to block the wall so early.

"Stupid! You won't let them climb the rope! Hurry up and block the wall, otherwise all of us will die!" Bishop Rongen shouted at the mage in anger. Soon the city wall was slowly sealed under the magic of the earth elemental mage, but everyone knew that those places could not withstand too much force to hit. Bishop Rongen could only keep urging the mages to strengthen those places, and kept cursing those who rushed to the city of Motuobo in their hearts that it would be best if they picked up anything and turned into feces.

Fei Yun carefully adjusted the crossbow. He kept reminding his companions to adjust the position of the crossbow. This crossbow that was originally operated by three people is now operated by five people. Chen Kai and the four powerful soldiers, in addition to being responsible for winding the string, also had to move the crossbow to train the direction.

"Do to the left! Wait a lot! Spot to the right, you're backing too quickly! Go to the left!" Fei Yun kept following the system prompts to ask Chen Kai and the others to adjust the direction. When using the bed crossbow for the first time, there will be a system calibration. But only once, Fei Yun had to adjust the bed crossbow before the calibration disappeared. At this time, the calibration arrow and the placement were completed. Several indigenous professions were in charge of the bed crossbow quickly shook, and then a crossbow arrow dyed red disappeared on the bed crossbow. It was ejected out, and after crossing most of the battlefield, it landed straight in front of the skeleton warrior, which scared the soldiers running in front of them.

"The distance is increased by 100 meters! Prepare for the first round of shooting!" Bass looked at the shooting effect and shouted hard at all the crossbow machines on the city wall.

"Damn it! I have to adjust the crossbow again!" Fei Yun muttered softly, but it was exchanged for Bass' fist. "Hurry up! Don't be too slow."

When the crossbow arrow of the first crossbow on the highest platform of the North Gate was fired, the sound of the crossbow arrows fired suddenly sounded on the entire city wall. However, most of the crossbow arrows controlled by players were significantly worse at attack, because many crossbow arrows were inserted into the ground halfway through the flight.

"Bastard! Hurry up the crossbow arrow!" Bass shouted under the city wall! Thousands of players of low-level levels were desperately fighting the crossbow arrows to run towards the city wall. They were all thrown in the mountain castle by their mentors. However, one player had lost his mentor because the system prompted their mentors to be killed. Therefore, these people were all red-eyed. Players who had been with their mentors for a long time gradually regarded their mentors as living people. Some orphan-born players even regarded the mentors in the game as fathers. People who have not tried to lose their fatherly love could not understand what it felt like when a person who was very strict and caring about them appeared in front of them like their fathers.

A series of system prompts flashed in front of Chen Kai's eyes, "Eliminate evil skeleton warriors to gain 5,000 experience, and destroy evil skeleton warriors to gain 5,000 experience!" Four experience prompts appeared in a row. The most important thing is the last prompt, and 1 point of battlefield merit. Chen Kai has not won the battlefield meritorious service these days, but all his merits are only 10 points, of which 5 points were obtained by blowing up the city wall. In the battle to defend the city some time ago, he only got 3 points in total, and the remaining two points were to stand at the city wall for eight hours a day and get a hard work fee.

"Continue to wind the strings! Don't be dazed!" Bass's roar spread across the city wall, awakening all the players who saw the rich profits become a little dull.

"Quick! Fuck the string, what a damn experience! And merit! Nnd I only got two points after so many points, and today I got 1 point with one arrow! Brothers!" The player responsible for fighting crossbow arrows under the city wall was very envious of listening to the player's roar. Unfortunately, because of the insufficient level or the profession, they could not participate in the launch of the crossbow machine, and could only do physical work under the city wall. However, it was not a waste of time to do these physical work. The system prompted them to get 0.5 points of merit for each monster they were responsible for transporting crossbow arrows. This was formulated by the battlefield leader Bishop Rongen and several other commanders.

"Men, aim for me! Don't let my arrow fight in vain!" A player carrying a crossbow arrow shouted at the city wall.

"Hurry up! Don't talk nonsense to me! The second round of shooting!" Bass yelled at the player, and then asked the flag bearer to lower the flag.

The second round of attack effect was significantly better than the first round. There were more than 100 crossbows placed on the city walls of hundreds of meters. The number of these crossbows was far higher than a few days ago. Therefore, after this round of attack, the entire skeleton warrior's legion was penetrated by nearly a hundred huge crossbow arrows. However, Bass still felt under great pressure because the entire skeleton army looked very large. Some bones were broken and then combined again after a while to become a new skeleton warrior. The most important thing is that more skeletons appeared behind the flame demons. Bass estimated that at least tens of thousands of skeletons were constantly rushing from the southwest direction.

"Preparation of the third round of crossbow arrows! The professionals must be prepared for me. I must not let those bones climb up the city wall!" Bass shouted at the indigenous professions beside him. Thousands of professionals stood densely on the city wall, but the number of those bones was too small. Bishop Rong kept sending several messengers to the camp at the foot of the mountain to find reinforcements. He searched all the people in the camp and found many players, but they were all players who were left in the camp as reserve by the mentor. There was no way that Bishop Rong could only use these players who were not qualified as reserve soldiers to get all the defensive equipment found in the entire camp, and collected all the defensive equipment that could be found in the entire camp. Unfortunately, the time was too short, because it was only a dozen minutes from discovering the demon to launching an attack. Then, no matter how tight Bishop Rong urged, he could not let everyone run from the camp to the castle all at once.

When a fierce defensive battle was launched on the city wall, the first reinforcements composed of players had just arrived at the fortress. Rongen quickly asked them to activate the flat-bottomed catapults and use the crushing of the huge rocks to reduce the pressure on the city wall. However, this did not reduce the pressure on the city wall. Bass had given up commanding and picked up his weapons to join the ranks of attacking the skeleton warriors.

Chen Kai should thank the mages who used spells to cast crossbow machines, because the entire crossbow machine obviously protrudes from the city wall and is one meter higher than the surroundings. Chen Kai could see those trembling bone racks rushing up from under the city wall and fighting with the guards on the city wall. However, it is not that Chen Kai and the others are fine. In fact, the danger on the crossbow machines is not lower than on the city wall. Although those bone racks cannot climb up for the time being, the flying little demons can easily fly up.

In addition to Chen Kai and others, several mages and mage apprentices were arranged on the crossbow machine, but more players were holding shields to defend against the skeleton archer arrows. More than a dozen people occupied the position of most of the crossbow archers. Fortunately, now you just need to shoot the crossbow arrows at the bottom of the city, and you don’t need to aim at them at all.

Chen Kai had no time to count how much experience he had gained or how many achievements he had achieved. He just turned the crossbow mechanically and kept shouting that the players in front of him who blocked the crossbow shooting were away. Every moment, several players were screaming indifferently and screaming as they were pulled out of the city wall by the little demons flying in the sky and their weapons, and then fell down from the city head and fell into the dense pile of bones.

Suddenly the entire crossbow shook, and the wooden trigger used to fix the ejection rope was broken, and the entire crossbow machine was a little broken by this sudden force. Chen Kai was shocked by this incident, but he was still very glad that the ejection rope of the crossbow was not broken. If the ejection rope of the crossbow was broken, then basically there were few people on the entire crossbow machine platform who could stand alive. It could shoot the wooden crossbow arrow weighing hundreds of kilograms for nearly two kilometers away. Everyone understood how powerful the tensile rope was. Even the senior mages standing on the crossbow machine platform were scared and sweating.

Almost soon, the crossbows on the city wall began to be damaged. In order to prevent the rope from breaking and hurting the personnel on the city wall, Bass had to turn around and ask someone to issue an order and stop using the crossbow. Although the crossbows could not be used, it did not mean that Chen Kai and the others could not attack the dismounted bones. Seeing the buckets of gunpowder piled up in the gunpowder warehouse under the city wall, Chen Kai directly pulled out a wooden board and used the seesaw to lift the ignited gunpowder barrel directly under the city wall.

Orange fireballs appeared in the skeleton group under the city wall, but the actual damage was not very high. Chen Kai found that the skeletons had high resistance to flames, and the explosive impact of gunpowder was far from enough to blow these bones into powder. Therefore, the effect was lower than that of bed crossbows. You can know from the experience that bed crossbows could allow Chen Kai to gain at least 4 bones at a time, but the flame could only be obtained from two to three. Moreover, the danger of gunpowder was higher than that of bed crossbows. The bones that were accidentally blown up to the bottom exploded on the city wall.
