Hunter starting from Hunter World
Chapter 828 The Battle of the Great Wall
As the Holy Knights led the army to enter the important northern town of Karinsha, the Holy Kingdom of Lobur felt the atmosphere of an imminent war from top to bottom.
Especially civilians in areas close to the border have long been enveloped in panic, fear and despair.
Because they have heard about the shocking scale of the invasion of demi-humans and undead creatures this time, and understand that it is impossible for the Holy Kingdom to withstand it by itself.
The only hope is to wait for reinforcements from the Kingdom and Theocracy before the defense line is completely captured.
Otherwise, based on past experience, none of the hundreds of thousands of people living on the border can expect to survive.
As for the Hunter Association, the civilians of the Holy Kingdom don't know much about it, only the nobles know a little bit about it.
Standing on the high wall of the Great Wall, Queen Carlco stared at the dense crowd of demi-humans not far away, and asked her two friends without looking back: Quirate! Remedios! We can definitely hold it, right? ?”
Ah! Isn't this of course! As long as I am alive, I will never allow these monsters to cross the Great Wall! Remedios responded, holding the Holy Sword Color Fallicia tightly.
As the strongest paladin in the Holy Kingdom, although she has various shortcomings, she never disappoints at critical moments.
Especially his talent in martial arts is even higher than that of Gazef, the warrior captain of the kingdom.
That's right! No matter how many enemies come, we must defend, and we can only defend. Otherwise, the millions of civilians behind us will be littered with corpses. Kuirat also expressed his attitude after his sister.
Yes! Even if it means death, we must not take a step back. Carl Ke gently stroked the crown on his head.
This is not a simple decoration, but a prop for the Final Holy War, a grand ritual magic passed down from generation to generation in the Holy Kingdom.
As a genius who can use fourth-level magic at the age of fifteen, she has made up her mind that whenever the situation comes to a crisis, she will not hesitate to reveal this trump card.
Just when Quirat was about to say something, a rush of bells immediately passed through from the height of the sentry tower.
Clang, clang, clang!
Enemy attack!
Enemy attack!
Those demihumans are about to attack! Everyone, prepare!
Archers! Archers assemble!
Quick! Light the fire! Heat the oil!
…
In just a few minutes, the officers on the city wall shouted quickly, shouting at the soldiers who were lying on the ground to rest, and began to prepare nervously for the battle.
About ten minutes later, the dark army of demihumans finally began to move forward slowly.
When they walked out of the wilderness and woods and stood in front of the Great Wall, everyone involuntarily gasped.
It’s not because there are too many people and they are powerful!
Just the opposite!
It's too weak!
At a glance, they are all old, weak, sick and disabled people who are very skinny and may die at any time.
Some of them had obviously not received any food for a long time, and they looked like skeletons wrapped in a layer of skin.
And there were no decent weapons on hand, just crudely made wooden sticks, stone spears, and stone axes.
They are not so much soldiers as they are a group of outright refugees.
Although the tribes in the demihuman wasteland are not highly civilized, they still have the technology to smelt metals and forge weapons and armor. Otherwise, they would not be able to pose such a huge threat to the Holy Kingdom.
This...what is going on? A look of shock and disbelief appeared on Karko's face.
The undead man named Ainz Ooal Gown probably wants to use these guys as cannon fodder to consume our supplies. Querat speculated from the most vicious perspective of human nature.
That makes sense! Anyway, there's nothing wrong with being careful.
Remedios suddenly pulled out her weapon. There was no trace of pity for these demihuman refugees in her eyes, only naked and undisguised hatred.
After all, the demi-humans and the Holy Kingdom have become mortal enemies due to the continuous war.
Almost every resident of the Holy Kingdom wishes that all the demi-humans in the entire wasteland would die!
Similarly, after the demi-humans succeed in entering the Holy Kingdom of Sleep, they will burn, kill, loot and even eat up all humans as food without mercy.
There are no thunderous war drums!
There is no loud horn!
There was no shouting at the top of one's voice!
In the silence, a thin demi-human finally carried a simple ladder and took the lead to attack the city wall.
Subsequently, the remaining demi-humans also followed suit, launching a death charge towards the tall Great Wall that was destined to be fruitless.
It is easy to see from the emotionless numbness in their eyes that they have lost hope of living and just want to end their lives as soon as possible.
To be precise, these demihumans were driven to die by the undead in the Great Tomb of Nazarick, just to attract the attention of the Holy Kingdom.
shooting!
When the enemy entered the shooting range, the officers on the city wall immediately gave the attack order to the crossbowmen.
moment!
A large black rain of arrows rose into the sky, crossed a beautiful parabola, and then fell like raindrops.
puff! puff! puff! puff……
The charging demi-humans instantly fell into a large area like wheat.
Their lives are like insignificant dust, becoming worthless at this moment.
After three volleys, the demi-humans finally approached the city wall and began to set up an escalator and climb up.
But before they were even halfway up, boiling grease was poured down from the top.
Dozens of unlucky ones were scalded to death in an instant, and more were burned and fell from the ladder screaming.
The Holy Kingdom's army threw down two torches and ignited the grease, creating hundreds of blazing firemen on the spot.
The wooden ladder also burned violently in the fire, completely cutting off the possibility of climbing.
Hmph! You deserve it! Don't show any mercy when dealing with these monsters and beasts.
Remedios casually hacked to death a guy who climbed up, with undisguised joy on her face.
Obviously, if the demihuman's attack is only of this extent, it is absolutely impossible to shake this solid Great Wall defense line.
…
What a bunch of trash! Mare, go and collapse a section of the city wall to put a little more pressure on the Holy Kingdom's army.
Albedo, who was taking command from the rear, immediately gave instructions to the twin brothers of the dark elves.
Huh? Do you want me to kill them all? Ma Lei, the cross-dressing boss, asked innocently.
No! What I mean is to create a favorable offensive environment for those demihumans without killing too many people. Otherwise, their offensive efficiency will not have any effect at all. Albedo patiently explained.
Oh, I see.
Mare nodded slightly, and then teleported to a place only one step away from the city wall.
His appearance undoubtedly attracted the attention of the Holy Kingdom's higher-ups.
Especially the kind-hearted Queen Carco, who subconsciously rescued this cute-looking elf girl.
But before she could take any actual action, Mare gently raised the artifact staff in his hand - the Shadow of the World Tree, and lightly poked it on the ground.
The next second...
Boom!
The ground suddenly began to shake violently!
In less than a few minutes, the city wall that had stood for hundreds of years was torn apart by the vibrations. At least four places collapsed, and almost two to three hundred soldiers were buried alive underneath and lost their lives.
After doing all this, the cross-dressing man murmured to himself in an uncertain tone: Well... this should be almost done, right?
Damn it! This dark elf is the enemy's mage!
Remedios was the first to push away the soil and bricks pressing down on her body, quickly got up from the ground, and rushed towards the opponent with the weapon in her hand.
Go to hell! The monster's accomplice!
The moment she raised the sword above her head and struck it down hard, she suddenly saw an afterimage passing through her eyes. Then she felt that her head was hit hard by something, and then she fell to the ground without seeing anything. Awareness.
I have to say that the scene where a paladin rushed towards a mage and was knocked unconscious by the mage with his staff was really shocking and full of inexplicable irony.
So much so that the Holy Kingdom forgot to rescue the leader of their own Holy Knights, and watched as Mare turned around and slipped into the portal and disappeared without a trace.
After a while, Quirat came back to his senses, rushed out and picked up Remedios, whose head was covered with blood. While treating her, he shouted loudly: Sister! Wake up! Are you okay?
I don't know if the treatment had an effect. After a minute or two, the leader of the Holy Knights finally slowly opened his eyes and asked with a confused look: What just happened?
You were knocked unconscious by a dark elf mage just now! Fortunately, she didn't mean to kill you, otherwise you would be dead by now. Quirat replied with a scared look on his face.
How terrifying is a mage who can destroy city walls with a tap of the ground and stun paladin who steps into the heroic realm with a wave of his hand?
Just look at the fear in the eyes of the soldiers of the Holy Kingdom Army now!
You must know that Remedios is the strongest person in the Holy Kingdom, otherwise she would not be the leader of the strongest force, the Holy Knights.
But for such a strong person to be instantly killed by a dark elf who looked weak and thin, the impact on his heart and spirit was unimaginable.
Just as Remedios was covering her head and trying to remember what had just happened, a commotion suddenly occurred at the back of the demihuman camp.
Immediately afterwards, hundreds of thousands of them seemed to have seen something terrifying. As if they were crazy, they began to surge towards the city wall like a tide.
No! Quick! Form up the infantry! Block all the gaps for me!
This scene made Quirat's expression change greatly. He immediately pulled his sister and ran back, while giving orders to the still confused officers and soldiers.
Formation!!!
Put your spear up! Raise your shield!
Don't be afraid! Don't back away!
…
Accompanied by shouts of nervousness and fear, about 3,000 people finally managed to gather together and blocked the collapsed holes everywhere.
But before the officer had time to boost his morale, the roaring demi-humans hit him head on.
boom! boom! boom! boom!
The demi-humans who were numb not long ago now have bloodshot eyes, as if they were injected with chicken blood. Even if their chest and abdomen are pierced by a spear, they will still move forward desperately before dying, swinging a simple weapon. weapon to attack the nearest Holy Kingdom soldier.
Some simply threw the weapons as if they were thrown, and then jumped up high to bite with sharp claws and teeth.
Such a bloody, brutal and ferocious attack immediately frightened the newly recruited recruits.
Some even threw down their weapons and started running away.
As we all know, in the cold weapon era, the phalanx was like a tightly integrated whole. As long as the soldiers did not collapse, it would be very difficult for any external enemy to destroy it.
But if some people in the phalanx start to escape, a gap will appear in the phalanx, triggering a chain reaction that leads to collapse.
Although the few escaped recruits just now did not cause a chain reaction, the gap that was exposed in an instant was still seized by the demi-human and inserted a finger, and then slowly tore it wider and wider...
It looks like the entire front is in danger!
At this critical moment, Queen Carle finally couldn't help but take action.
moment!
White beams of light fell from the sky and began to heal the wounds of the injured soldiers, and also provided a series of BUFFs such as boosting morale for a period of time.
With the blessing of faith and magical power, the human soldiers finally blocked the gap bit by bit with difficulty and drove those crazy demi-humans back from the Great Wall defense line.
Normally, when seeing that there is no hope of a breakthrough, the opponent should choose to retreat and reorganize the attack.
But something was obviously wrong with these demi-humans, and they didn't even have any intention of retreating. They continued to rush forward, even though the corpses had piled up an extra wall, and their feet were covered with dark brown sticky blood, making it difficult to even stand firm.
These demi-humans are so abnormal! What on earth makes them so scared? Kalko's eyes widened in surprise.
But soon, she learned the truth.
Deep in the dense woods behind, a group of undead creatures exuding strong negative energy slowly walked out.
All demi-humans caught up will be slaughtered mercilessly.
What is even more frightening is that the corpse that has just been killed will be immediately pulled up by necromancy magic and join the ranks of the undead army.
Obviously, this is why the demi-humans rush forward risking their lives.
Compared to dying at the hands of humans, they are more afraid of being killed by the undead and then becoming part of the undead army, and their souls will never be able to rest in peace.
Fire oil! Pour fire oil on those corpses! Burn all the demihuman corpses! Otherwise, they will all be pulled up and become part of the undead army!
At this time, Quirat didn't care about her ladylike image and immediately shouted to everyone at the top of her lungs.
She couldn't imagine what a terrible scene it would be if all the dead demi-humans turned into undead. She was afraid that seven or eight low-level undead for one human soldier could drive the Holy Kingdom to a dead end alive.
