Heart of the Castle

Chapter 747 Attack and Defense of the Dark Fortress
Accompanied by the sharp neighing like the breath of a giant dragon and a large amount of thick steam, several huge stone balls with a diameter of about two meters were thrown out from the roof of the siege vehicle, spanning a distance of nearly 300 meters, with an unstoppable force. The terrifying power smashed against the 40-meter-high solid wall of the Dark Fortress, and the sound it made was fiercer than the rolling thunder in the sky.

Even though the obsidian crenels and protective low walls on the walls of the dark fortress are very strong and protected by powerful dark magic, they are still unbearable to this purely physical attack.A tower was hit by two stone balls from different angles, and it collapsed with a terrible sound, and the obsidian fragments fell like rain; several city wall crenels collapsed, and a whole group of howling horned monsters disappeared on the city wall. Only invisible deep purple blood plasma was left at the gap; a stone ball luckily landed in the formation of the demon defenders, and the sound of broken bones and flesh was completely covered by the loud noise like a thunderbolt. The fragments splashed in all directions like a turbulent wind in hell, and a few drops even splashed on the face of Charlemagne, the Lord of Terror, who was directing the battle not far away.

Charlemagne quickly wiped away the blood with the back of his hand, and the expression on his face could only be described as ferocious and distorted. "Damn humans, and even more damn goblins..." There was a hint of worry in the dreadlord's grunt, but the voice was so low that only he could hear it. "Are they really dirty and stupid goblins who can make such terrible weapons?"

The weight of the stone balls fired from those catapults with complex structures and weird shapes is astonishing, coupled with the huge impact force generated by the high speed, even the legendary strong have to pay attention to it.Charlemagne had just split a stone ball flying towards him with the sword of Fiercefire, and the pressure from his wrist was extremely heavy, and he still felt a dull pain a few minutes later.

A loud roar suddenly came from the side of the lord of terror. An abyss alchemy lord who was casting the innate magic fireball was brushed by a stone ball on the right side of his body. The thick brass magic pattern armor weighed several tons. In front of the impact force, the defense power brought by a piece of parchment was no higher, and it collapsed immediately after being smashed.If it were a human being, half of his body being smashed flat would definitely be a serious injury that would kill him immediately. However, the strong physique of the abyss demon lord allowed him to hold on for nearly half a minute. Blast around him, maybe he can be reborn with the help of the dark healing technique of the abyss priest.

"I can't go on like this! I can't!" Charlemagne, the lord of terror, turned his attention away from the tragic explosion that happened not far away. Although only one abyssal demon lord and more than a dozen whippers were killed in battle, the whole It was only an insignificant loss to the guarding army, but the entire Dark Fortress was under heavy blows from dozens of giant catapults and alchemy ballistas every moment.Such losses add up, and since the start of the war, the defenders of the Dark Fortress have lost more than 20 high-level demon lords and thousands of elite demons.

Even for the [-] Dark Fortress defenders, this level of loss is something that has to be taken seriously, not to mention that during this period of time, the counterattack of the human army has always been in a very unfavorable situation. There are few victories to praise.

A sharp and ear-piercing sound of cursing came from another direction, followed by a sudden burst of scorching blood-colored energy fluctuations, which turned into several long flaming snakes, spanning hundreds of meters, and pounced towards the human siege troops.One of the long flaming snakes hit a giant siege vehicle as quickly as lightning, and collided violently with the translucent divine power shield that emerged afterwards. After a stalemate for a few seconds, a strong light flashed, and it exploded into a bloody rain of fire scattered all over the sky. .But the human troops in several other directions did not have such strong protection, and the hoarse screams accompanied by the stench of burnt flesh soared into the sky.The fiery snake pierced through their formation viciously, then rolled left and right, dragging more human soldiers into the flames from hell.

This was the first effective counterattack made by the demon defenders of the Dark Fortress, but the face of the Lord of Terror, Charlemagne, did not look relaxed because of this.Because these powerful fire snakes represent the charming lord, Ms. Cang Ye, who has led more than a dozen high-level succubi to participate in the battle. For the opponents who both have legendary powerhouses, the one who makes the first move is undoubtedly at a disadvantage.

The power of the legendary demon lord's attack is of course extraordinary. The human troops under the banner of the silver-crowned raven and the three-headed golden dragon suffered heavy losses and had to retreat to reorganize the already chaotic formation; The commander of a human army was even worse, there was a fatal chaos during the retreat, and the dead caused by trampling and crowding alone were no less than the damage caused by the flame snake.

Regardless of whether the troops of the Three Kingdoms can cause damage to the solid defenses of the Dark Fortress, they can at least help the northern troops attract part of the counterattack firepower of the demon defenders.When they all retreated, the golden griffin banner became the most prominent forward of the human army, and was immediately hit by several times of violent counterattacks.

The first to launch a counterattack was still Ms. Cang Ye. The charming lord raised his hands high, his slim waist stood upright against the wind at the top of the city, and the soft white robe was blown close to his body by the strong wind, completely revealing his palpitating beauty. beautiful curves. "The power of the soul and even Gao Weili, stupid human beings with nothing between their ears, use your lives to experience the greatness of the soul!" Following this cold announcement, moist red lips burst out, and Ms. Cang Ye's eyes suddenly froze. It became hollow and dark, and an invisible spiritual force flowed through her body, and then gathered in her eyes.

"Wow, big old man, look, look!" Si'er, the leader of the little spirit of the Secret Rhythm Tribe, was jumping excitedly, grabbing the sleeve of the vice archbishop of Beria beside him and shouting, "Seeing the opposite city No head? That devil girl is so beautiful!"

The deputy archbishop of Beria squinted his eyes and looked over. As a high-level clergyman who has some authority in the heart of the castle, probing has also become one of his abilities. After the deep purple magical aura, a trace of worry could not help but appear on the wrinkled face. "The abyss succubus is the embodiment of desire, so of course it will look very beautiful... Chief Si'er, what you saw is a very powerful succubus queen. What does she look like in your eyes?"

"Of course, Si'er's eyes are absolutely amazing. That girl looks exactly like the most beautiful Dangdang in the tribe. She has a waist and a butt. She must be very fertile..."

A burst of icy blast suddenly interrupted the words of the leader of Si'er. It was formless and substanceless, but it carried a confusing force. The bodies of a dozen earth priests who were praying to the gods shook for a while, and then collapsed on the ground. The result of being defeated was that they were unable to do anything other than panting violently for a while.

The willpower of the goblins is much weaker than that of the devout priests of the Temple of the Earth, but due to their very strange brain structure, the blows they receive are relatively much milder.Under Ms. Cang Ye's mental explosion, most of the little monsters were staggering and running around, some took out their homemade muskets and slammed them indiscriminately, and some screamed and fell off the siege vehicle— —But compared with their usual behavior, it seems that there is no difference at all.

"My lord Bechymos, bless your devout believers!" When the mind blast happened, Vice Archbishop Beria's mind was dizzy for a few seconds, but his mental defenses held up this time Blow, although the forehead does have some dull pain. "We are attacked, brothers and sisters, sing the seventh canto of hymn at once, why does the earth shake?"

"My lord Bechymos, the thick chest carries the earth, my lord Bechymos, the rocks and bones protect all things! Strict as you, loving as you..."

As the low, solemn melody sounded, the translucent divine power shield covering the giant siege vehicle became much clearer, and even a huge phantom figure with muscles and bones made up of gems and mineral veins emerged, opening its strong arms. Arms, standing in front of the giant siege vehicle in a protective posture.

The charming lord, Ms. Cang Ye, waved her hands, leading the second wave of invisible power to descend, but this time it failed. Most of the invisible power of Mind Blast was absorbed, and under the protection of phantom, those earth priests didn't even show symptoms of headache.

"Damn the gods." Charlemagne, the Lord of Terror, blurted out a curse, his tone was so ferocious that it seemed to set the surrounding air on fire, "It's actually the incarnation of divine power, shouldn't that God of the Earth, Kaggio, have fallen into a deep depression a long time ago? Are you asleep?"

"It's not Kagino. Although this incarnation of divine power is solid, it's not strong enough! And the image is wrong!" Ms. Cang Ye shouted, "I didn't use my original power just now. If it was Kagino's avatar of divine power, it should not even fluctuate. None will appear!"

"Then destroy him!" Charlemagne roared, and then waved his right hand, pointing the Fiendfire sword at the giant siege vehicle, a jet of black light shot out from the blade, passing through the air like a thunderbolt, slamming Hit the chest of the phantom of the giant.

The phantom of the giant trembled violently, opened its huge black mouth, and let out a silent roar.The second black lightning came one after another, and hit the giant's right knee, causing him to crooked and kneel on the ground.The third black lightning blasted off the giant phantom's left arm protecting its head, and then continued to move forward, piercing the eyes made of unpolished emerald stones.

At the same time as the phantom of the giant fell, the vice archbishop of Beria groaned in pain, clutched his chest and fell down.The leader of Si'er hurriedly stretched out his hands and ran over, trying to support the old man's body.However, the well-meaning leader of the little elves did not estimate the difference in strength. With a scream of "cuckoo", the body of the vice archbishop Beria hit Si'er's outstretched hands heavily, and then continued to fall, killing him. Crouched down like a squashed frog.

Shouts mixed with fear and anger came from the clergy team on top of the siege vehicle and the ready-to-go human troops below, "Protect Lord Beria!" Someone uttered a hoarse cry. "Be careful, the divine power shield has expired!" Another voice reminded hurriedly.

Just when the divine power shield protecting the giant siege vehicle and the phantom of the giant disappeared at the same time, Ms. Cang Ye, the charming lord, gathered the power of more than a dozen high-level succubi under her command, and summoned a huge flaming long snake.Accompanied by the last few evil spells of the abyss, the fiery snake rushed towards the banner of the griffin, billowing blood and flames across the blue sky. From a distance, it looked like the river of flames from the bottomless abyss descended suddenly Ordinary.

"Not good! It's dangerous!" Abraham's first knight Tuha Sauddin, who was watching the battle under the red crescent banner in the distance, suddenly sank in his heart, and almost blurted out these words.Unlike the Great Imam of Usama who was furious about the death of his beloved son, the Desert Sky Knight was defeated by Rist Robinson and Sir Rodriguez successively. Weston is quite respectful.

Prince Almufasa of Abraham has no ill feeling towards the Griffon Lord. In fact, it is precisely because Prince Arasan lost his life under the city of Dirk that this unappreciated prince has the chance to inherit the throne of the Great Imam. Chance. "Master Sautin," he frowned and looked at the giant siege vehicle that had almost been completely swallowed by the flame giant snake, "It seems that the situation of the Griffin Lord is not good, should we leave immediately?"

"His Royal Highness Prince Ermufasa, why do we have to leave here immediately?" Tuha Sauddin said in his hoarse voice.

"Lord Saudin, there is no conflict of interest between Northern Territory and Abraham, isn't it?" Prince Ermufasa blinked and said, "The Temple of Radiance has always believed that the belief in the Allah of Bright Flames is a misinterpretation of the Lord of Radiance Even if they cannot take the initiative due to the constraints of religious ideas, the three vicious dogs will not miss this opportunity. As for the death scythe Thomas Jansen, no matter what attitude he shows... the Abrahams will never Don't fall twice in the same trap!"

A sharp look flashed in Tuhasauddin's eyes, and then he nodded slightly, "Your statement is very reasonable, His Royal Highness Prince Ermufasa, it seems that you have been hiding the truth when Prince Alasan was alive. to your true talents."

"Of course it needs to be hidden, otherwise my cemetery may already be covered with papyrus." The corner of Prince Ermufasa's mouth twitched, showing a little sadness and self-deprecating emotion, "Lord Sautin, even now, Father... no, it is the Grand Imam of Usama who is still paranoid about me, so I... need your support."

The desert sky knight's face changed slightly because of Prince Ermufasa's eagerness to recruit him, but before he could reply, a burst of noise came from afar. It didn't sound like there was any sadness or panic in it, but rather Just as elated as a victory.He hastily turned his head and looked in the direction of the Griffon banner, just in time to see the flaming serpent emitting a dazzling light and then exploding, while the giant siege vehicle swallowed by it remained unscathed. On the roof of the car stood an old magician in a red robe. The long staff held high in his right hand was simple and elegant in shape, and the head of the staff shone with the crimson luster of top-grade flame gems.

"Fire Wizard Juno Ann Merist!" St. Bogdan Cardinal said the name through gritted teeth as if spitting out a mouthful of scorching acid. Vice President. He is obviously a wealthy family, and he once had a fierce conflict with the Griffin Lord, but now he has become Li Weiston's capable subordinate, which is simply..."

At the same moment, Ms. Cang Ye, the charming lord on the wall of the Dark Fortress, also let out an annoyed cry, and at the same time, an expression of awe and anger appeared on her face.The flaming long snake was summoned by her gathering more than a dozen high-level succubuses whose strength surpassed that of the great magister, but it was easily defeated in front of the red-robed magician. Obviously, the other party's ability to control the flame element It has surpassed the realm of ordinary legendary powerhouses.

"That guy... is the owner of the original power of flame!" Charlemagne, the lord of terror, growled, and at the same time put away the sword of Fierce Fire, "Don't use any magic that requires the element of fire, otherwise it will be the same as using the same kind of magic It makes no difference to fight against the Burning Lord Darika!"

Ms. Cang Ye nodded vigorously, and then a blue lightning shot out from her finger, followed by several green acid balls and countless black negative energy missiles, the torrent of magic violently impacted on the giant attack. Dazzling glare and deafening roar burst out from the flame shield in front of the city car.Many were forced to cover their ears and turn their heads away to give their stinging eyes and ears a break.

However, these magics are actually just a cover to deceive people, not a real threat. As a legendary demon lord, Ms. Cang Ye knows exactly what it means to be a legendary powerhouse who has mastered the original power of flames.It would be too wishful thinking to defeat a prepared legendary magician by relying on magic with a large number but only five or six levels of magic.

The real trump card is the invisible spiritual power hidden in the torrent of magic. The eyes of the charming lord Ms. Cang Ye suddenly flashed a hollow light, her long hair flew up, and the unprecedentedly powerful spiritual power was condensed into two sharp and unparalleled The needle flew quickly towards the fire mage Juno Amerist whose figure was almost submerged in the strong light and explosion.
