17. The Destruction of Luskan (Part 2)
However, just as the necromancer had sorted out his emotions and wanted to pick up a pen to continue writing the report, he suddenly heard the floor in the room whirlwind, and then a sharp and sharp scimitar was frozen all over his body, and some time it was placed on his neck from behind. The daggers, pistols and spell scrolls he used to defend himself were now packed into the suitcase and were not at all hand.
"...Don't act rashly. This gentleman who tried to leave after causing a big disaster in our Luscan City. Tsk tsk, after just a while, you're really anxious!"
The voice behind him warned in a low voice”
Don't try to do anything more! Don't force me to kill you here. Hurry up, raise your hands and put the dagger in the sleeve of your left hand on the table, oh, and the dissociation gem ring on the index finger of your right hand, please take it off. Well, it's very good..."
While stunning the Arcane Brotherhood killer's understanding of him, he gave up his plan of struggling with depression. The undead mage obediently gave up the last few counterattack weapons on his body and truly surrendered.
"...what are you going to do now?" After doing all of this, he asked in a calm and steady voice.
,”
Follow me to the main tower conference room, and several presidents are waiting!" The mysterious killer standing behind him took back the scimitar and said lightly, "... President Saldehun had long guessed that you would leave us and slip away quietly, so he really wanted to talk to you, OK, let's go now."
In an instant, the undead mage couldn't help but tremble all over, but sighed and there was no other way except to obey the other party's orders.
In the headquarters of the Arcane Brotherhood, the president occupies the upper floor of the main tower of the Great Orfa Tower, while the four dumb presidents live in the four towers, each of which corresponds to the direction of their jurisdiction. Each tower has si rooms, laboratories, stand rooms, summoning rooms, libraries, rooms for apprentices and servants to live, etc., "There are countless magic traps, mechanisms and gargoyle guards.
The tower has a very evil reputation. Even the drunken pirates and the dock villains who like to brag, they dare not imagine what would happen if they entered the tower without permission. Most people did not even dare to bring visitors to the island where the Great Obasa is located, whether for friendship or for money. It seems that every Luskan pirate, si-witted, beggars and sailors knew that those who attempted to break into the tower for bets or challenges ended up being a small pile of ashes, or something even more terrible.
For example, human skin crafts...
The Dragon Witch Cult envoy, who was regarded as a guest of honor, was tied tightly by ropes. Under the escort of a dark-clothed killer, "they stumbled through a dark bluestone corridor and slowly walked towards the large conference room under the main tower.
Two oak doors inlaid with relief opened, and the room behind the door, and the huge wool tapestries hanging between the columns, embroidered with the marks of the Arcane Brotherhood: a black reddish-brown warship sailed on the deep blue waves, and above the ship was gradually rising purple-black land, and on the land stood the large black-out of the Anfa Tower, the main tower twisted like a dead tree and four dusk towers, all clearly visible.
Under this huge tapestry, there were several middle-aged men in gorgeous costumes, quarreling fiercely. As for the Dragon Witch Cult envoy who was suddenly pushed in, they just glanced coldly, and then put all their energy into the dispute between them.
, " "Can't be delayed anymore! President! Elaszhuo is only willing to cease fire for one hour this time and let us consider it! Please make sure to make a decision!"
"...Coward! I have already rejected her persuasion to surrender! What else do we have to consider? The stinky bitch, Elaszhuo, requested to surrender unconditionally! It is an unconditionally surrender!
Instead of being sent to the military court in the future and then hanged in shame on the square, I would rather die here in battle!"
, "President! Even if you are willing to die in battle, someone must fight with you! The guards in the city are about to escape! There are only a few hundred lazy men left in the camp, but there are as many as three reorganized legions outside the city, with more than 70,000 elite troops! Acknowledge the reality! President! We are at the end of our lives, and the Southern Army far away in the imperial capital cannot count on it at all, so this battle is no longer possible!"
"Escape? They fled to the chess? Haven't the ports and roads been blocked by the enemy?"
"Of course, they took off their military uniforms and ran to their homes, and then got under the áng and became ostrichs! They seemed to think that as long as they returned home, the shells would not hit their heads, and they would not be liquidated after the war! There were even those who fought each other in the chaos, or steal and rob each other!"
, "Oh my god, are our Lusk Guard soldiers broken their brains?"
, "There is no way, many people are short-sighted, sometimes hopeless. They are clearly on the same boat, when the boat is about to sink, they often think not to work together, but to take the opportunity to take advantage of the enemy from the past. You should think about it again! Now it is still time to repent! As long as we hand over this bastard from the Dragon Witch Cult and confess our guilt, we will probably only disband the Arcane Brothers and exile the border, or eat decades of prison meal, but at least we can make the remaining brothers survive as much as possible!"
In this spacious conference room, there were many other middle and low-level members of the Arcane Brotherhood, totaling about fifty or sixty. However, on their faces, they could no longer see the moment when they raised the flag and rebelled and sang loudly. Instead, they had fallen into a complete confusion. They only knew that they were watching the presidents argued in a desperate situation, and they were simply insensitive like walking corpses.
More members have already buried their bones in the battles in previous battles: the Arcane Brotherhood has only a hundred people in total and lacks reserve power to supplement Luskan's city's population is only 20,000, and it is generally poor. People who are capable of learning Arcane are even rarer and their level is generally not high. Therefore, both in terms of manpower and financial resources, the Arcane Brotherhood cannot withstand the consumption of long-term combat.
But despite the pitiful capital, this Arcane Brotherhood always wants to conquer the vast northern land with a population of tens of millions. Even if it is leveraging the power to fight, forming alliances and creating momentum, it only knows how to rush around and kill, so it is now at the end of the road.
But until this time, the current supreme leader of the Arcane Brotherhood, President Rom, who was in a hot temper, still had red eyes full of bloodshot, and his forehead was roaring with blue veins, and he shouted at the vice president of the "reasonal" Salder, who tried to persuade him to accept the notice of surrender, "No! As a Luskan, I will never surrender! Since our glorious organization is about to be destroyed, let's make all this more vigorous! The city guards that have already mutinyed and fled for the time being, and retreated the remaining soldiers into the Great Ofa Tower and continued to defend the dead! Be sure to build this tower into a tenacious fortress that reflects our firm will and shape it into a historical monument that records our brilliant achievements..."
However, just as the president, who was already in a state of hysteria, was still chatting about crazy slogans that no one believed, another rumbling sound of shelling was suddenly heard from a distance, and the ceasefire time was stipulated to persuade surrender, and it was over!
This terrifying sound and violent earthquake hit everyone's ears in the room, causing a lot of dust on the arch to fall down densely.
The members of the Arcane Brotherhood, who were just like walking corpses, suddenly changed when they heard the sound. Then they fell on the smooth floor with great agility and rolled in a mess. Next, when the tremor on the ground calmed down slightly, they hurriedly lay down next to the window, and then the miserable scene of the fire in the city was shocked to the sky!
This round of artillery bombing used powerful white phosphorus incendiary bombs and targeted Luskan city.
But Luscan City is quite poor and dilapidated. Most of the houses are made of wooden buildings and the streets are messy. Fires are often caused. Now it is really an excellent target for arson attack. In an instant, flames are evaporated everywhere in the city, and oxygen is instantly absorbed. The city center has become a terrifying vacuum zone because of the upward movement of the hot air. Then, due to the difference in air pressure, a terrifying flame storm has been formed. The houses, personnel, furniture, etc. have been rolled into the ultra-high temperature and terrifying hot wind that melts the ceramics, turning into unrecognizable ashes...
Looking at the destruction of the purgatory of the scattered fire in the distance, even though they were in the Great Aufa Tower with numerous magical protections, even if they were cruel and murderous underworld members, the members of the Arcane Brotherhood, could not help but shudder.
Only President Rom, who had been completely crazy, was still jumping and chatting constantly trying to cheer up his lost subordinates.
, "Don't be afraid! Our Grand Aufa Tower has an exclusive secret magic protection barrier, which can withstand the bombardment of the largest caliber of contemporary artillery. There are countless magic traps everywhere in the tower, which is enough to make the invaders pay a heavy price, and even drain the last drop of blood..."
However, before he finished speaking, he heard Vice President Salder screaming heart-wrenchingly. President Rom turned his head with some annoyance. Before he could scold him, he saw a terrifying scene that left him deserted through the glass window ahead: a mountain with rugged rocks was transported by three floating giant ships. It seemed slow, but in fact it was flying towards his head quickly!
What a desperate scene this is!
No matter how powerful the magic defense array is, even if it can block the 20-inch caliber giant cannon armor-piercing shell, it will definitely not be able to withstand a mountain pressing down head-on. You know, even the Seiwukong will be pressed under the Five Fingers Mountain!
After a brief shock and numbness, some smart mages began to try to save themselves and attempt to use teleportation techniques to escape. However, they had just made a few gestures, but they were desperate to find that the enemy had already activated the space restriction and teleportation techniques could not be activated at all!
A three voters of the Magic Goddess and several great arcane masters competed for magical attainments, just letting the rabbit fight Lao Qi...
The scene they abandoned in the next moment was that millions of tons of earth and stone fell head-on, and the strong Great Orfa Tower was collapsed and buried in an instant.
Then... nothing happened.
All the ambitions, delusions and yin schemes of the Arcane Brotherhood have been completely concluded.
Looking at the artificial hill standing tall at the mouth of the surging Miral River under his feet, and the scorched earth surrounding the artificial hills, Marshal Feritayle, who was next to the side of the Xiangrui ship, couldn't help swallowing and felt the corners of his mouth twitching.
The style of the Woking Church's combat style is really simple and crude!!
The mastermind of the Luscan rebellion, the headquarters of the Arcane Brotherhood, and the famous evil nest cave, the Great Ofa Tower, were crushed under this hill!
After the second persuasion of surrender was still rejected, the three giants of the siege army began to arrange siege operations. The initial plan was quite appropriate: first use floating battleship artillery shelling to destroy urban buildings, then send infantry into the city to follow up and occupy it, and finally use heavy troops to siege a large Ofa Tower in the fortress in the city to cover the elite assault squad to climb the tower, and launch a clearing battle against the Arcane Brotherhood remnants.
Of course, as the Arcane Brotherhood has worked hard to run the lair for centuries, the Great Aufata must be full of mechanisms and murderous intent step by step. But the crusade army does not lack high-end force, and everything from voters to lichs is available. "The priests and mages must use "thousands" to count. There is also a large number of experienced veteran adventurers, who were summoned by Elaszor with personal prestige to help fight. It is better to play the RPG game (Dragon Quest of the Brave).
Unexpectedly, when I gave this combat plan to the Woking Church, Miss Mitsui Ryuki seemed to have no interest in playing RPG games slowly, but wanted to fight quickly," she said.
Where did the poor guys from Luskan's Arcane Brotherhood get their treasures? Why do you have to fight monsters and treasure hunting in the tower one level at a time like the legend of adventure? Our income is about 100,000 yuan per minute, but we don't have that much time to accompany you!"
So she started her own action and found an abandoned unfinished floating city on the banks of the Miral River. This was originally a new industry of a great arcane, but unfortunately he had just become a great arcane. "He caught up with the imperial division and civil strife, and the new Miser Energy Nuclear was suspended for three consecutive years.
Since this poor new arcane could not wait for his own Mither energy core, the construction of this floating city had to give up halfway and was thrown here by his master, allowing the sun and rain to blow...
Well, add to it, the so-called floating city is actually a mountain that is turned back by magic with its magic power.
Therefore, the unfinished floating city that was poked on the ground was turned over again, which was a standard mountain. During the initial construction, the relevant personnel also reinforced and hardened it in advance. "It was really good to prevent it from cracking and falling in the air due to its own gravity and smashing people!
Next, Mitsui Ryuki Inu Bu ordered the three ships to play a tugboat, join forces to lift the mountain, and then aim it at the Great Ofata and throw it down!
Once very good, the sensational Luskan rebellion ended here, and even the city of Luskan was gone!
Just finish the work in one go!
dr On the afternoon of September 15, 1995, when the second persuasion of surrender was still ineffective, the crusade army completely lost patience and finally used the final decisive weapon. First, they burned Luscan completely with fire, and then threw a mountain from the world. "The Great Ofa Tower, the headquarters of the Arcane Brotherhood, smashed the people inside, and buried alive by millions of tons of earth and stone, completely destroying the remaining rebels' dream of continuing to resist stubbornly.
The Luskan rebellion that lasted for a month and a half was completely quenched, and there was no possibility of reviving. To be more precise, the miserable city of Luskan has been temporarily erased from the map, leaving only a pitiful scorched earth with smoke rising.
The news spread, and the North was shaking. All the ambitious and restless elements who were originally ready to move were frightened and had to lie dormant again. When there was nothing wrong before, the Arcane Brothers was so arrogant and arrogant, as if they really regarded themselves as the king of the North. But when they really went to fight, they actually failed and became a mess. They became a scumbag in less than two months... Wars are risky, so rebellion needs to be cautious!
