Heart of the Castle

Chapter 358 Feint Attack, Fierce Fighting Surprise Attack

The silver moon Maya hangs down to the west, and the stars in the sky are about to disperse.The tranquility of the Rotten Swamp was disturbed by bursts of slight noise, releasing an uneasy breath in the night.The moonlight flickered freely on the water surface of the shoal, and was shattered by a ripple from time to time, and it returned to normal in the blink of an eye.More ripples appeared in the deep pool in the distance. Occasionally, heads with jet-black messy hair covered with water plants floated on the water surface, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Although there is still some time before dawn, the aborigines of the Rotten Swamp have already started a silent march, trampling the mud with one foot, some covered with thick brown hair, and some protected by gray-blue scales; Appearance The snakeskin beast somewhat similar to the bison let out a deep breathing sound, its skin shone with a yellow-green light under the moonlight, and its four hooves stepped lightly on the wet and soft ground covered with water plants and fallen leaves; The old hags sat on the snakeskin beasts' backs, grumbling from time to time in hoarse voices; above their heads, black wings beat the air, and hundreds of big crows flitted across the sky like a black cloud, guarding the Among them, more than a dozen extraordinarily huge black shadows flew forward.

In order to make the feint attack as real as possible, all the aboriginal tribes have been mobilized, and even the slightly injured personnel have gone to the battlefield.The bristle tribe that was overcrowded suddenly became empty, and even the guards stationed behind the fence and watchtower line of defense also set off, leaving only a dozen or so figures standing quietly, watching the feint attacking troops step out of the camp, On the journey.

Usher in victory, or die.

"Leader Li Wei of the Griffon Tribe, the feint attack troops have already started to move. When are we going to set off?" A burly werewolf man with only one eye asked. He had tried to lower his voice, but in the silence, his voice still seemed a little bit is too big.

"The leader of the Cracking Flesh Tribe, Bawu, please be calm and wait patiently for the information sent by the big crow. When it is time to go, we will naturally go." The old hag Stiba answered in place of Li Wei, although she asked the wolf head Don't be in a hurry, but there is also a trace of anxiety that cannot be concealed in his own voice.

Although this counterattack was just a feint, it had to be true, so as to attract the attention of the undead army and divert them away from the heavily defended Black Crow Tribe.According to the timing of the battle, it is actually not suitable to fight back immediately, because the aborigine tribe has not recovered from the last disastrous defeat, but the prophecy of the Black Crow Queen mercilessly pointed out that the disaster is imminent, and the burning drama The poisonous star will descend with the golden sun.

No one is safe, there will inevitably be a large number of casualties among the feint attacking troops, and everyone in the raiding team must face the smile of death.Even if they were seriously injured or disabled, those who stayed in the bristle tribe camp with the blind lizardmen elders were not without danger. If the battle was unfavorable, they would perish together with the Rotten Swamp.

The wind with a damp breath blows head-on, and the closer the dawn is, the darker the sky will be.The seemingly endless army of aborigines finally left the camp. The last burly figure riding a snakeskin beast kowtowed to Li Wei and saluted. The young lord returned the salute with the same gesture, and then watched the roaring bear sink into the dark place ahead. middle.

Donner was not able to join the raid team. On the one hand, the feint attack team also needs experienced knights to lead it, and on the other hand, it made Li Wei a little dumbfounded.Since the Black Crow Queen decided to join the raid team, for the honor of fighting alongside the spiritual leader, every aboriginal tribal leader tried his best to fight for it. The scene was so heated that Li Wei once thought that they would fall into a gang fight.In the end, it was the Black Crow Queen who finally selected a few names in person, and this farce ended.

There are only ten people in the entire raid team, but they have concentrated the most powerful force they can muster so far. In addition to the Black Crow Queen and Li Wei, they also include several old friends who fought side by side with Li Wei last time: Chief Worf of the Tooth Tribe, Chief Gala of the Greyscale Tribe, and Chief Stibah of the Crow Tribe.In addition, several tribal leaders who are known for their bravery or brutality are also listed, such as the leader of Bawu of the Flesh-Splitting Tribe, and the leader of Ragger of the Blood-Drinking Tribe.There is even a female lizardman among them, that is Leslin from the Thorn Tribe. Although she is young and thin, she is a well-known marksman in the entire Rotten Swamp.

A golden light gradually appeared in the distant sky, but it was only a few heartbeats before it was submerged in the rolling dark clouds. The Black Crow Queen lifted her pale and delicate face like a sculpture and looked at the sky with no expression. Immediately afterwards, her unique cold voice echoed in everyone's ears.

"A heavy rain is coming."

"This is really bad news." The leader of Worf of the Sharp Tooth Tribe muttered, "Wolfheads hate rain the most, and they have to fight those damned guys, and the bones are squatting there obediently waiting Just eat it!"

The Gala leader of the Greyscale Tribe, who always liked to bicker with Worf, was just about to speak when he heard the high-pitched and sharp trill of the big crow from above his head, "Dumb!" The voice swept through everyone's heartstrings like a cold blade, except for the Black Crow Queen. Still expressionless, everyone including Li Wei shook their bodies slightly, and turned their gazes to the sky together.

A black bird folded its wings and shot down from the sky like an arrow from the string, "Encounter, encounter, fight is about to begin!" The big crow yelled, passing over the heads of Li Wei and the Black Crow Queen, and it was over. After the task of reporting the letter, he flew towards the direction he came from without stopping.

"Everyone, it's time, get ready." Li Wei gave an order, and then he was the first to get on his horse neatly, and the rest of the raid team members jumped on their own snakeskin beast mounts, while the Black Crow Queen was The body floated up slightly, and then a pair of huge black wings protruded from the gaps on both sides of the black mage robe. The surrounding wind elements immediately cheered and gathered around the pair of wings to dance.

Li Wei stroked the black nightmare's head with his hand, and the black steed with half purgatory blood immediately let out a loud long hiss, and then the snakeskin beasts let out a low and dull roar, not to be outdone, and the roar shook the air like rolling thunder. "Towards the Black Crow Tribe. Let's go!" The young lord pointed forward with his hand, and then the sound of Black Nightmare's hooves broke through the silence of dawn, rushing into the vast darkness!

"Let's go!" roared from every throat, and the eyes of the snakeskin beasts turned red instantly, and then they rushed out. At first glance, they looked like their irritated distant relatives.

At the same time that the raiding team set off, the aboriginal army performing the feint mission had already approached the Black Crow Tribe, which was originally the largest and most populous aboriginal tribe in the Rotten Swamp, occupying dozens of contiguous hills and depressions. Thousands of hags and other aborigines once gathered, and even the spiritual leader of the Rotten Swamp, the Black Crow Queen, settled here, hence the name of the tribe.

But these are all things of the past.Due to a miscalculation of the strength of both the enemy and the enemy, the aboriginal tribal coalition forces chose this battlefield for the decisive battle, hoping that the perfect defense facilities of the Black Crow tribe could provide them with reliable support.However, when the defeat was inevitable, they discovered that the walls built by the Black Crow Tribe with mud and red willow branches were so vulnerable. Hundreds of hags guarding the tribe were almost killed and injured by the first round of attacks by the undead army.

The current Black Crow Tribe has completely turned into ruins, and the corpses have been collected. Only the bloodstains left beside the collapsed mud wall can tell the intensity of the last battle.Both the hills and the depressions have been ravaged by the claws of the undead creatures, gray and white bones are scattered all over, and occasionally torn fresh limbs can be seen.The faint green poisonous mist of the undead rose upwards, churning and condensing over the Black Crow Tribe, forming a terrifying cloud.It seems that there are countless souls in the cloud group who are weeping mournfully, making all the people who hear it tremble with fear and anxiety.

A tower of white bones with a height of tens of meters rises from the ruins of the Black Crow Tribe, and its tip reaches straight into the sky. Countless undead creatures gather around the tower. The low groans, the wailing of ghosts and wraiths merged into a terrible dark hymn, making the black crow tribe under the green cloud cover look like ghosts.

Squads of low-level undead creatures wandered far away from the Bone Tower, seemingly aimless, but weaved a patrol network to protect the tower airtight.No matter which direction you approach, you will inevitably encounter one or several such patrols.

The combat effectiveness of these patrols is not very good. Low-level skeleton soldiers are easily destroyed by blunt weapons. Although the zombies have great strength, their movements are very slow. If they cannot form a numerical advantage, they will be vulnerable to a single blow.However, for the accusers who control these undead creatures, these patrols are equivalent to alarm bells, giving the army of undead creatures time to prepare.When they are attacked, it means that the enemy's troops have arrived.

A strange scream suddenly came from the top of the Bone Tower, carrying the most vicious curse on all life, "Those dirty beasts have appeared again! Destroy them!" At the same time, not far from the Black Crow Tribe On the small hill, the remains of an entire undead patrol team were scattered. The skeletons of skeletons and the remains of zombies were all trampled into the mud, only a small part was exposed. Scary spooky plants.Below the hill, a group of werewolf men holding heavy sticks and flails gathered, followed by lizard men holding short bows, their eyes were shining, and they gathered towards the top of the hill, where dozens of people riding snake skin The beast elite troops are led by a burly human, holding a giant battle ax shaped like a roaring bear's head in his hand.

"To win, to destroy the swamp, today, we sacrifice!"
