Blood Dragon

"Think about it, Captain Perrin, when the green skins launched an attack, suddenly... their boss turned into a vampire... What do you think will happen? Hehe..." Carl let out a hey laugh Voice. "I'm sure, whatever happens, it's going to be a fun thing to do."

"Your Majesty the Archbishop, since you have this artifact, the angel..."

"No! Although this artifact can disable the vampire's transformation trick, it has no lethality. In order to ensure that the vampire is killed, angels and other troops are still necessary."

Of course, the more important reason is not the vampire, but his own safety.Although it is said to be a low-level war of these primitive races, without Wendini's protection by her side, it would not be worthwhile in case of danger.As for the city... Anyway, it can be rebuilt, and the life and death of those primitive races is not what Karl considers.

"No matter how smart that vampire is, he never thought I would have this trick!" Carl whispered to himself when Perrin left.The best ending is that the transformed vampire is directly killed by the green skins!

Oh yes, some more testing is needed!Thinking of this, Karl hurried to the secret room inside.Don't assemble the induced radio wave transmitter wrongly!

A few days of relatively stable days followed.Apart from using magic to attack the defenders on the city wall from time to time, the greenskins didn't do anything else, but from a distance, they could see those crude siege weapons appearing in the greenskin's camp.These machines were not placed centrally, but scattered throughout the greenskin camp without any rules.

Rumors had been circulating in Oren that the greenskins planned to take the bridge downstream on rafts.For this city, this is indeed an extremely effective tactic, so people are panicked.Many people suggested to Pei Lan, who was in charge of the command, to strengthen security in the direction of the bridge, or at least prepare street fighting fortifications, so as to prevent the city gate at the bridge entrance from being breached by green skins.However, to everyone's surprise, Perrin actually rejected the proposal.He has done nothing but step up patrols here.

Archbishop Karl also ended his isolated meditation and prayer during this period, and began to show up frequently in the city.This action greatly countered the previous rumors that the "archbishop escaped" in the city, and gradually calmed down people's hearts.The greenskins hadn't launched their attack yet—but everyone could sense that once it did, it would be the decisive battle that would determine the outcome of this war.

In the early morning of this day, Carl walked out of his bedroom contentedly.Everything was going well, and he finally had an ace against vampires, which put him in a good mood.There seemed to be no reason to prevent him from relaxing and enjoying the time before the final battle.The three women who accompanied him last night could barely get up today.

He put on his most beautiful and gorgeous priest clothes, and prepared to summon some beautiful priestesses today.Although he had always restrained himself from taking action against these priestesses who belonged to the church, he really had no choice now.Perrin had evacuated a large part of the residents, including the merchants who used to provide him with a stable source of women... Now he has no way to find better ones, so he can only make up his mind on the grass beside the nest.

But it seems that God didn't intend to give him a chance to make this mistake (Yilan would definitely be furious if he knew), just when he was thinking about the specific goal, a messenger hurried over and informed him of an urgent message .

"Your Majesty, the orcs are coming on rafts, and they have already boarded the bridge!"

"Where's Perrin?" Karl asked subconsciously.

"Master Perrin has already gone there to take charge of the command... It was he who told me to come and find you!"

"Well, I see!" Carl suddenly felt a burst of evil joy in his heart.It's finally over, Aishuruffat, it's a pity you're still one step too late.If you come here before I set up the induction radio transmitter, maybe you still have a chance.But now... you're nothing more than a monkey!

When Karl came to the city wall, he happened to watch groups of greenskins swarming the bridge.In fact, the bridge was covered with green dots at this time.The raft on which the green skins were riding was not the normal kind, with a crude tower built in the middle.As the raft travels down the river, the tower will naturally be blocked by the bridge, and the greenskins will then be able to climb over the wooden tower and onto the bridge without much effort.In this case, the patrolling troops in charge of vigilance on the bridge were of course unable to resist.The only thing they can do is to retreat as soon as possible and pass back the information of the green skins.

The greenskins were still making noise in the whole team.It would be an opportunity to go out of the city to fight back at this time, but unfortunately, in this case, it is impossible to judge where the blood banner boss is.

Carl took a closer look, the whole bridge looked like a green carpet covered with green dots, and he could see many dark green dots with a darker color—those were black orcs, the elite of the green skin force.It seems that just as I expected, the boss of the Blood Banner led his most powerful troops and personally commanded and launched the raid.

Karl smiled, the bait he set up here was not in vain, the Scarlet Duke really came over!

In fact, in terms of strategy, the situation at this time is not optimistic.As I said before, the city of Oren is actually composed of two opposite cities facing each other across the river. Both cities have complete city walls, and a city wall is also built on the side facing the water.However, considering that it is difficult for the enemy to launch an offensive from the side of the Oran River (it is impossible to use any siege equipment in this direction unless the river dries up), the city wall on the water side is far less solid than the city wall on the land side.This is not only the thickness, but also the fortifications of the walls as well as the gates themselves.

The city gate on the side of the water—that is, the front of the bridge—is not an impenetrable urn.And the city gate is too big and too thin.Not the kind of iron gates or iron-clad wooden doors that can withstand attacks.This is because the ports by the river are important material transfer centers, and if the city gate is too large, it will be difficult to transport large items, such as building materials.Due to the special background of Oren City, some large buildings often need to be built, and the materials needed are through this door.

The orcs have taken over the port and are now only a step away from the gates.The musketeers on the walls were on standby.

"Your Majesty, the cannon emplacement at the head of the city is still empty. If the cannon can be pulled up, it should have a very good effect." Someone suggested to Karl.Right now the greenskins are not ready yet, the cannons will do a lot of damage.

Carl didn't answer.To him, it's all just a game.And he already knew the outcome of the battle.Cannon or something, it doesn't matter at all.

"Hehe... Come on, Scarlet Duke Ashurfat... Before you die, take a moment to be proud. When you think you have everything in your hands, you find that victory is already within your fingertips Slipping away...that expression must be very interesting." Carl watched the green carpet squirming in front of him, and laughed in a low voice with words that he could only hear. "Although I probably won't be able to see your panic and fear at that moment, I will imagine it well!"

"Drag the cannon behind the city gate and prepare for shotguns." Karl ordered.

"My lord, we can't just give up the city gate!" A general said loudly. "The cannon should be hung on the city wall, it's still too late!"

Carl frowned, but he calmed down immediately.How could these low-energy races who don't understand anything know the ingenious plan in his heart? "As I said, pull the cannon behind the city gate and prepare for shot!"

He gave the order in a tone of indisputability.The general seemed to want to speak again, but in the end nothing was said.

Ashurfat, come on.I will give you a chance to break through the city gate!A little sweetness for you, as a last-minute gift before you die.

From the other end of the city came the rumble of cannon.Karl glanced back - the fierce battle must have started beyond the gap in the city wall.Perrin had already gone there to command the battle (Karl didn't keep him), so I don't know if the greenskins have broken through the temporarily rebuilt city wall at this time.

His thoughts were only shifted for a short time, and he was immediately drawn back to the battle in front of him.A big foot made of green light spots appeared on the top of the city wall, stomping on the heads of the musketeers neatly lined up on the city wall.Every step of the foot brought up gravel and dust, as well as a few screams.

"My lord, let me..." A magician beside Karl pleaded, but Karl waved his hand to stop him.

"It's okay, it's nothing, you don't need to waste your energy to crack the magic. The time for you to attack has not yet come. The green skins will come up soon!"

Anyway, the city gate is already going to be given to Ashurfate.A war of attrition for magic here would be superfluous.

Next, as Karl expected, the green skins let out earth-shattering shouts, and a wave of green waves separated from the main body, and under the cover of magic, they charged towards the city gate.

……

The little orc leader held up the ax in his hand, but his body froze.He looked at the magic arrow piercing through his chest with disbelief, and then his body fell down slowly.

But the four orcs rushed forward, Perrin shook the bowstring lightly, and four consecutive arrows shot through the bodies of the four orcs.This hand of Lianzhu Arrow is a unique move - but no matter how strong the unique move is, it cannot stop the charge of thousands of troops on the battlefield.Perrin did seal a small gap, but in others, more orcs were swarming in, swooping down on the thin defenders' lines.

A whirling pillar of flame and storm erupted suddenly from the ground of the battlefield, its roar almost completely drowning out the screams of all the victims.At least a hundred orcs were turned into coke under this magic, and this wave of green skins' offensive was finally contained temporarily.But there the giants kept pounding on the walls, each attack opening a wider gap, allowing more greenskins to rush through.

Perrin knew the magician who performed the magic. He was a high-ranking priest of the church and a prestigious master of magic.But at this moment, the master fell to the ground due to excessive exertion, and neither of them could help him up.

On the greenskin side, there are more shamans, shamans casting spells in groups.

The musketeers in all directions have suffered heavy losses.After the greenskins broke through the makeshift walls, the shamans turned their attention to the musketeers, and they threw all kinds of evil and cruel magic on the musketeers.The fate of the militiamen with muskets on the city wall was even more tragic-several orc shamans teamed up and used a powerful magic to teleport a whole group of orcs with machetes to the city wall.The battle on the ramparts literally turned into a massacre.

Without time to hesitate, Perrin once again shot down a little orc leader.He has no time to choose carefully now, but as long as he sees a slightly larger orc, he will shoot.He didn't even know how many orcs he had killed, fifty?a hundred?His strength is being consumed rapidly, and it takes longer and longer to shoot an arrow.

This side can barely last for a while, and I don't know how the situation is with Archbishop Karl.
