Chapter 180 The First Attack

The soldiers and horses of the Griffin Empire began to deploy and slowly moved forward. Although they had not yet started to attack, the sky and the earth were already in a state of terror. The murderous aura was so intense that people couldn't breathe, and the sky seemed to be darkening.

Lu Ping looked up, the sun had already set and was about to set. It seemed that the enemy was going to attack the city in the dark.

At the same time, the player guilds in Erasia all received information to start attacking Levin Fortress, but the players are not fools, who would like to go to the front to die?Therefore, there are more people shouting loudly and fewer people walking forward, and no one will attack the army in the fortress first.No matter how important meritorious service is, it is not as important as your own life, right?If you fail, you will be downgraded, your equipment will be destroyed, and there is no point for players to rush to the front, only to be killed in seconds.

A convoy appeared behind the army of the Griffin Empire, pulled by a unicorn beast that was bigger than a wild elephant. Its pace seemed to be slow, but because of its huge size, it actually walked quite fast—the enemy's attack City equipment has arrived!

Lu Ping thought that they would start attacking the city only after pulling the heavy equipment to the front. Unexpectedly, the horn sounded loudly, and all the troops in the sky and the ground began to move, charging towards the fortress!
The magic anti-aircraft turret on the top of the city attacked automatically. When the enemy approached about 2000 meters, it started to launch. The magic light flashed, and huge fireballs, ice balls, and light clusters flew out one by one, falling towards the enemy's air troops.

Can they stand it?Players on both sides are eagerly waiting.

The magicians of the Griffin Empire all held up their staffs and chanted, and a large number of magic light clusters flew towards the magic shot from the fort...

"Boom...boom..."

There was a series of explosions, some of the magic shot by the turret exploded early after being hit, some were blocked and deviated from the direction, and some still moved forward and crashed into the enemy's team.But the level of the enemy is very high, and all of them are blessed with protective magic. Although some people were injured, no one was fatal. The bishops cast healing spells to heal the injured.

At the beginning, only a few magic turrets were fired, and after ten seconds, all of them were launched. All kinds of huge missiles and light clusters flew across the sky, colliding with a large amount of magic released by the enemy. The radiance was like fireworks blooming, which was magnificent , The sound of rumbling explosions can be heard endlessly.

Finally, a few people in the enemy's team couldn't hold on and fell from the air.The power of the magic turret is powerful, but unfortunately the number of magic turrets is relatively small, but there are too many enemies, the attack is not concentrated enough, and a large part of it is offset, the effect is not ideal.

At a distance of about 1000 meters, the enemy stopped advancing. About [-] magicians cast spells to attack the protective shield, and the high-level magic attacks of fire, water, earth, and air bombarded like a torrential rain. After hitting the light shield, they exploded. The yellow protective mask is like a stone thrown into a pool of still water, causing ripples.

Since they have already colluded with Jean Gawain, of course they know that the crystal mines in the fortress have been hidden, and the magic circle cannot withstand consumption. After breaking through the magic circle, they can attack the magic fort. The momentum of pressing eggs broke through the Fortress of Liwen in one fell swoop.

There are no magicians in Liwen Fortress, and even if there are, they cannot penetrate the protective shield to attack outside. Large trebuchets and giant crossbows can't attack so far, so the heavy equipment on the top of the city can't play a role yet, and everyone can only look at the magic fort Confront the opponent's magician phalanx.

Two hundred necromancers and dark knights, including Mo Shi and Bill, stood on the top of the wall and watched with cold eyes, without saying anything, unfathomable.Although they are the elite of Diya's elite, the Griffin Empire is also attacking the elite this time. Even if they can fight ten against one, they can only deal with 2000 people, which will not be of much use.

The heavy equipment of the Griffin Empire was finally transported to the front. Many vehicles were quickly assembled together and turned into huge siege equipment. Most of them were trebuchets and giant crossbows. There were also a small number of arrow tower vehicles, giant shield vehicles, and ramming vehicles. And a device I don't know what to do with.

The ground troops began to push forward with the protection of the giant equipment, entering within 1000 meters...

Ten strong soldiers around Lu Ping twisted the turntable with all their strength, and quickly opened the ten-meter-long crossbow. A giant steel-headed arrow the size of a sea bowl and over ten meters long slid automatically into the arrow slot.

"The distance is 51, the elevation angle is [-], and the left is [-]—launch!" The soldier in charge of aiming shouted.

With a "bang", the ballista trembled, and the huge arrow flew out like a meteor. It pierced the air and made a screaming sound, dragged out white light, and shot a beautiful parabola in the sky towards a catapult. .

It's a pity that the angle was a little bit off. The giant arrow flew past the catapult and crashed into the phalanx of paladins. The first person hit had blood flying from his mouth and hit the people behind. The people behind also flew up and hit the people behind... Ju Ya knocked down seven paladins in succession in the crowd, "ploughing" a lane.

"Good guy!" Lu Ping couldn't help but praise, the power of this giant crossbow is too amazing.

The sound of "呯呯" was endless, and the giant crossbows and catapults on the top of the city were fired one after another, knocking down the enemy piece by piece. One of the enemy's catapults was hit by a stone bullet and could not be used.

The players watching the battle in the city cheered, but the soldiers did not look happy at all. Although the enemy suffered some casualties, they continued to move forward without any confusion.

The heavy equipment of the defending side does not need to be moved, so it can be made bigger and stronger, and has a longer range; the crossbow and trebuchet of the siege side need to be moved on a cart, the size and weight are limited, and the range and power must be Almost, this is the disadvantage of the siege side.

The enemy's team advanced to about 800 meters away from the city, and their giant ballistas and trebuchets also started to fire. Huge stone bombs and giant arrows flew over one by one, which looked quite scary.However, the range of their heavy weapons is a bit short, and it is not convenient to eject from a low place to a high place. More than half of the stone bullets and giant arrows fell on the city wall, making the city wall tremble, but Levin Fortress is very strong , not so easy to be knocked down.

There are more than 60 giant crossbows and trebuchets at the top of the city. Because the Griffin Empire seriously underestimated the defense of Levin Fortress, they thought that there was an internal response, and they could conquer without heavy equipment, or even enter without fighting, so they didn’t bring many For heavy weapons, there were only twelve catapults and fifteen giant ballistas, and three were destroyed as soon as the attack started. They were inferior in terms of firepower in this regard.

Some magicians of the enemy have been bombarding the magic anti-aircraft turret, and most of the magicians are bombing the protective shield of the fortress. At this time, the phalanx of griffin cavalry and griffin marksman also started to move, flying towards the fortress quickly .All the troops on the ground began to move, and the Griffin Empire launched a full-scale attack...

The sun has completely disappeared on the horizon, it is dark, there are no stars and no moon, but the light from the continuous explosion of various magic makes the whole battlefield bright as day, with colorful lights flashing non-stop, like a huge dream stage, so beautiful but so fatal.

It was not easy to siege the city. Thousands of people had died before the ground troops of the Griffin Empire reached the river, but their large number of long-range shooters also posed a serious threat to the people at the top of the city.The magician cast magic in the distance to counteract the bombing of many magic forts. Under their cover, the griffin sharpshooter rushed to within 200 meters and shot from a high position. There were so many people, and the arrows flew like rain, suppressing the people at the top of the city Don't dare to look up.

"Change the target, shoot the ballista at the air target!" Al Brown issued a new order.

There are baffles in front of the crossbow and trebuchet, which can block most of the enemy's arrows. It is safe for the operator to hide behind. Ya shot away with a screaming sound.

The power of the giant arrow is astonishing, and it has terrible lethality when it is shot thousands of meters away. At this time, it is shooting a target within more than 100 meters, and it is a griffin sharpshooter with no protection. It is like a bunch of candied haws. Shoot through a dozen or even dozens, and finally fall from the sky with a bunch of people or birds.Although there are only more than 30 giant crossbows, their power should not be underestimated. The enemy's griffin sharpshooter was shot and killed hundreds of people in the blink of an eye.

The enemy's chief general also issued a new order, and the Griffin cavalry rushed forward and forcibly boarded the city.A large group of griffin cavalry flew into the sky in front of the fortress, launched a dive skill, and crashed into the city at an oblique angle of sixty or seventy degrees.

The crossbowmen on the top of the city had been lurking all the time, and only then did they start shooting. The arrows were dense and continuously fired at the Griffin cavalry. They were obviously well-trained, and five to ten archers shot at one target. The enemy has no chance to heal and escape.

Although the griffin is strong, the weight it can carry is still limited. If it is too heavy, it will not be able to fly far. Therefore, the griffin cavalry wears light mail, holds a medium-sized iron-inlaid wooden shield, and holds a [-]-meter spear in the right hand. The power is limited, and it cannot block close-range shooting.The griffins had no armor and could not withstand close-range shooting. Fifty or sixty griffin cavalry were shot and killed in the first wave of impact.

A few griffin knights rushed to the top of the city, and the spearmen at the top of the city stabbed them randomly, turning them into hornet's nests one by one, and the guards were tightly guarded.

The magic turret was attacking automatically. At this time, the Griffon Knight and the Griffin Marksman were too close to the city wall, and there were too many of them, so the magic turret suddenly changed its attack target and bombarded them.

The magic fortress is definitely more terrifying than the giant crossbow and trebuchet. Magicians with strong magic resistance form a phalanx, relying on powerful magic attacks and protection to offset most of the damage, so it is possible to support it.These griffin cavalry have no means of resistance, and the protective status added to their bodies is also limited. How can they withstand the bombing of the magic fort?I saw all kinds of colorful lights blooming in the crowd, flesh and blood flying everywhere, the screams were earth-shattering, and the giant crossbows on the top of the city and crossbowmen shot together, killing nearly a thousand people in the blink of an eye. Gryphon cavalry.

Griffon cavalry and Griffin marksmen are special forces, limited in number and expensive to build. They are mainly used for raids, pursuits, patrols, etc. It is not wise to use them to attack cities.

Although they withdrew quickly, the magic turret had a range of 2000 meters. They continued to bombard them, and the casualties continued. By the time they ran out of range, more than 4000 Griffin Riders and Griffin Marksmen had died in total, almost half of them.

This is a very painful price. The defensive capabilities of Fort Levin exceeded their expectations. The enemy's ground troops began to retreat, and the magician phalanx continued to bombard the fort's protective shield more than 1000 meters away, fighting a war of attrition.

Lu Ping laughed loudly: "Haha, it turns out that they haven't been beaten yet. What 20 elite soldiers, how many people can they have left if they come again?"

Al Brown standing beside said, "They underestimated our strength this time, and it will be different next time...they will attack after exhausting the energy of our shields."

"According to the current situation, how long can the magic shield last?"

Al's face was a little heavy: "I'm afraid we won't be able to support this time tomorrow, and they will also reinforce the magician and bishop."

Lu Ping was speechless, the difference in strength was too great, there was no way to fight this battle, but the crystal mines and gemstones in the castle could be transported tomorrow afternoon, and it could last a little longer, now we can only take one step at a time.

In just ten minutes of fighting, the enemy lost nearly [-] people, leaving corpses, equipment and damaged heavy weapons all over the ground after retreating. The equipment dropped by NPCs is the same as that dropped by monsters. It can be kept on the ground for an hour, and it will be refreshed if it is not picked up.

Al didn't send anyone to pick it up. Who would dare to open the city gate at this time?The Griffon Empire only sent a small team to pick up the things that were close to them, and there were still a lot of high-end equipment left on the ground. The NPCs didn't care, but the players were all jealous.Randomly picking up a few pieces of these high-end equipment and throwing them into the store is a lot of gold coins. If you pick up the best quality equipment, you will get even richer.
The victorious items belong to the winning side of the battle. The battle is not over yet. Picking up things without permission is regarded as robbery. Who would dare to move in front of the eyes of 10,000+ NPCs?

However, there is still one person who dares to pick it up, and that is Lu Ping. He is the supreme leader of the defense, and the spoils belong to him in the first place.On the top of the city was the corpse of the Griffin Cavalry and the fallen equipment. He stepped forward to pick up a piece of mail armor, a level 100 orange one, which was damaged and could not see its attributes until it was repaired; Level 100 yellow equipment has extremely high additional attributes, but it may not be very good compared to level [-] equipment.

After picking up a few pieces of Lu Ping, I lost interest. Most of them were yellow equipment, occasionally orange ones appeared, and most likely they were damaged and needed repairing.Advanced equipment is also expensive to repair. Maybe the price of selling it to the store is not as high as the repair cost.Besides, when he reaches level 100, will he still lack equipment below orange?The parcels are already full, and there is no safe deposit box in the fortress, so I can't walk with these old and heavy high-level equipment, so let's leave it to the soldiers.The key now is to win this match, then the harvest is tens of thousands of equipment, not a few pieces.

A large number of enemy magicians are constantly attacking the protective shield of the fortress from a distance, but there are no weapons in the fortress that can attack so far, so they can only be beaten helplessly. Now it depends on how long they can last.

The player's magic attack distance is related to the level. The higher the level, the better the vision, and the farther the magic can attack. At present, the player cannot attack the target 1000 meters away, so although there are a lot of players coming from Erasia , also got the attack mission from the military, but no one dared to rush to the front to attack the protective shield of the fortress. If the heavy weapons on the top of the city were aimed at them and attacked, they would be dead!
