The Sun King's Evidence

Chapter 757, a short break

After thousands of years, the fire in Wallaya's main temple was lit again, and the dwarf craftsmen began to work. A rhythmic melody sounded above the flames and anvils.

The empty and deep leyline network was carefully inspected. There are several roads in this leyline network, including Karak-Draz (i.e. Black Rock Castle) in the north, Karak-Eight Peaks Mountain, Karak-Iron Peak Fort in the east, Karak-Dragon Cliff Fort in the south, among which Karak-Dragon Cliff Fort has also fallen for many years, and is ruled by the famous Jieya tribe.

Black Rock Castle has now been destroyed, and Dragoncliff Castle has been ruled by the greenskins. Among the important dwarf southern fortresses, the only one still under the control of the dwarves is Karak-Iron Peak Castle. Belegar hesitated for a long time before giving up the mission. The messenger went to Iron Peak Castle to seek support. He decided to ask Thorik Ironbrow, the dwarf rune master of Iron Peak Castle, to come to support at the scheduled time instead of providing support in advance, because Belegar was always worried about the passage of the leyline network. The messenger may die on the way, the ley network may be damaged and cannot reach Iron Peak Castle, or it may be intercepted by greenskins or ratmen on the way. There is no need to take such risks.

Moreover, the location of the main temple of Wallaya was very secret, and it was difficult to find a foothold. Belega did not want to be discovered by the enemy, and the army also needed time to rest and recover.

The knight army was very tired. They rested for two full days before they regained their breath. Many humans were a little uncomfortable living in such a place where they could not see the sun and the sky, but unlike the elves, humans were still very adaptable. Strong, finally found a safe place to rest, most people said they were satisfied.

On the second floor of the Valaya Temple Hall, Ryan, Belega and others were discussing the next steps. Among the attendees were Kalad, Veronica and the dwarf's new rune master Slude.

"Rough calculation, after reducing the number of troops, we currently only have enough food for two months." Ryan said to Belega: "My previous idea was to open up the logistics channel after conquering Valaya's sad place, but now... …”

The current situation made everyone frown. The leyline network in the direction of Walaya had collapsed, and the logistics was interrupted. Not only was the logistics interrupted, but even the news could not be sent out.

Originally, Veronica could transmit messages thousands of miles through magic. However, the power of the main temple of Valaya was too powerful, which directly caused the message to be unable to be transmitted. The rune gate leading to the Eight Peaks Mountain could not be easily opened, leading to the Black Rock Castle. The road to Dragon Cliff Castle is also impassable. Dragon Cliff Castle is still in the hands of the greenskins, and although Black Rock Castle was destroyed, there are still many dark creatures living underground.

In short, they are now truly alone.

"There is another problem. Neither you nor we have any ammunition." Belega said in a muffled voice: "Among them, the arrows are okay. Our forging factory here can produce them, and we can also try to send some small teams to cut down some outside. Wood, but bullets and cannonballs... there is really no way around this."

"All the bullets and cannonballs we had before were used up in the battle of Wallaya Gate." Ryan was not very worried about the problem of contact. His psychic powers were not interfered by Wallaya's divine power. His previous psychic powers It only takes a little time to recover if it is overused. Both the Lake Fairy and Angron can withstand his psychic calls. If it is not possible, Surya or Morgiana can barely make do. Instead, he is worried about bullets and cannonballs.

No matter how advanced the ancestral dwarf forge of Wallaya City is and possesses ancient rune technology, the invention of gunpowder weapons was already two thousand years after the construction of Wallaya City. At that time, the Eternal Peak faced a huge green army. During the attack of the leather army, the dwarves were originally blocked in the gate of the Eternal Peak and unable to get out. But at this critical moment, the dwarf engineers discovered the secret of gunpowder. Relying on brand-new weapons, the dwarves finally repelled the green-skin army. .

Therefore, the forge workshop in Wallaya City can produce arrows, crossbow bolts, trebuchets and bed crossbows, but it certainly cannot produce bullets and cannonballs. It lacks raw materials and has no production lines.

The expeditionary army's bullets and artillery shells had all been exhausted in the previous war, and even the magic crystal cannon's shells only had three rounds left.

Everyone was silent for a while. There was really no way to deal with it, so they could only ignore the topic for the time being.

"How long will it take to repair the equipment and change clothes?" Ryan asked the question to the dwarves again.

"If it's perfect, one year." Slud-Honest said seriously.

"...Then we will all starve to death here." Ryan complained: "I'm talking about the shortest time."

"That will take at least three weeks." Slude Honesty was indeed honest: "The mustaches are really not skilled enough. I will never accept a forging task of less than three weeks. You know it well, Brother Lane, we dwarves will never accept it." No defective products.”

"Three weeks then." Ryan agreed immediately without hesitation: "We will stay here for three weeks."

"Three weeks... Brother Lane, the dwarves have no problem, but for humans, will it be uncomfortable to stay in the cave for such a long time?" Belega said with some concern: "You need the dwarves to provide you with some help. What?"

"That's not necessary." Ryan shook his head and said with a wry smile: "What I'm concerned about is, where are the cannonballs and bullets? Brother Belega, can we ask Iron Peak to provide some of them?"

"Haha." Belega said helplessly: "The king of Iron Peak is Kazadur, brother Ryan, Kazadol-Dragonhammer. You have met his cousin, King Baiernov of Haimen Pass-Dragonhammer. Right?"

"Yeah." Ryan was a little strange.

"I have always felt that compared to Kazhador, Byrnov-Dragonhammer is the more open-minded and willing to accept new things among the two." Belega complained: "Today, the Iron Peak Castle army only There is a team of thunder gunners and a cannon team. It took Khazadur five hundred years to accept these two new things, and all the gunpowder equipment was imported from Eternal Peak or Riptide Pass. In fact, if you ask me, If it hadn't been for that incident (referring to Brother Fang's surprise attack on Iron Peak Castle), it might have taken him a thousand years."

"I understand." Ryan knew that this path would not work.

After chatting about some unproductive topics, the two parties agreed to set off from the city of Walaya in three weeks and arrive directly in front of the Titan Gate in Bafeng Mountain through the leyline network. Directly opposite the Titan Gate in Bafeng Mountain, there is an ancient dwarf The outpost, the stream outpost, the expeditionary force will make a surprise attack there, directly capture the entire outpost, and then prepare to attack Bafeng Mountain.

Although Lane has doubts about Belegar's surprise attack plan, it is obvious that Skarsnik and Headhunter Quick have no reason not to know the importance of the stream outpost, but Belegar said that after investigation, this leyline network has obviously not yet been discovered. , Ryan also knows that Belega is an expert in sieges, and he is very familiar with Skarsnik. According to Belega's judgment, Skarsnik will definitely try to shrink his troops at this time, concentrate on defending the Titan Gate, and then look for counterattacks. Opportunity.

The cunning Battle of Bafeng Mountain will no longer give the expeditionary force a chance to fight in the field.

After a few more words, the two sides broke up. Belegar planned to personally lead a team of dwarf rangers again to investigate the nearby exits of the earth network to ensure that this hidden temple would not be discovered. The task of the human army was to Recuperate.

Coming out of the main temple, Ryan walked in front and Veronica followed. Witch of Gloria was wearing an ebony mercerized soft pleated dress with lapels and a pair of beautiful large breasts wrapped in black forged pantyhose. Wearing bright red high-heeled shoes with long legs, her sweet face couldn't help but be excited, and she took the initiative to hold Ryan's arm: "My dear, the harvest this time is not small."

"Well, it's not small." Ryan smiled reluctantly after hearing this. He turned his attention to the dense water pipes on the wall of the dwarf city. Even though it has been thousands of years, the water supply device and water purifier here are still functioning: " It’s truly a marvel of engineering.”

"Don't change the subject!" Veronica stretched out her small hand wrapped in black lace gloves and tapped Ryan's forehead: "I know, dear, you are still heartbroken about the losses of this war, right?"

"Without sacrifice, there is no victory." Ryan glanced at Veronica, and he sighed again: "I know these are necessary sacrifices, but there are still some... some people have followed me for more than ten years, and now If I die in battle, all I can do is sign the death notice and provide a pension."

"Without a war of this intensity, how could so many people be promoted to the legendary level, and how could you and your army be truly tempered? You know very well that both you and I have been through countless battles and battles. You get promoted by fighting." Veronica comforted Ryan in another way: "For the knights and nobles, fighting for the lady, fighting to protect and eliminate evil is an obligation. For those serfs, The most terrifying thing is not dying in battle, but being a serf for the rest of your life. My dear, you didn’t let them die, and you even went to the front line to fight, so what else can they complain about?”

"It's really unreasonable~" Ryan finally laughed. Amidst Veronica's screams, he picked up the Witch of Gloria and kissed her hard on her lips: "But it still makes some sense. , but I want to ask my chief female courtier, how come you and your witch group had no casualties in the battle at Walaya Gate?"

"Oh, dear, don't be like this, put me down~ let's talk properly." Veronica was relaxed in private, but she still had to be shameless in front of others. In the distance, several witch apprentices were envious and pointed and talked to some serfs. The sound made the Witch of Gloria blush with embarrassment. She was kissed by Ryan until her whole body went limp. She could only plead softly and struggle gently: "Don't be here, okay."

Ryan put Veronica down, and the Witch of Gloria landed on her high heels. She stretched out her small fist and punched Ryan on the chest: "Really, I'm not ashamed!"

As Ryan complained, the battle at Walaya Gate was very tragic, but not every position on the battlefield was particularly tragic. Some people lay down for the entire battle.

Yes, Ryan is talking about Veronica's witch group and the Unicorn Guards sent by Francois. This new elite infantry was arranged by Ryan to protect the witch group. As a result, all the enemy's attention was focused on There are several key breakthroughs in front of the Valaya Gate, so the witch group and the Unicorn Guard guarding a corner basically did not encounter too strong enemies throughout the whole process. Except for a dozen soldiers who were slightly injured, they did not encounter them at all. hard situation.

As for the most tragic front row, why were the casualties of the serf infantry so heavy, while the casualties of the knight lord and the old guard were barely acceptable?

Brother, the knight master and the old guard are all heavily armored! The goblins, the slave rat clan rats, and the undead skeletons behind them all lacked the ability to break armor. Beating them back and forth could force these elites back, but it was difficult to cause effective damage.

The real mass casualties came from the attack of the giant beasts and the addition of the big green men, the Stormvermin Legion, the Lahmian Tomb Guard and the Lahmian Vampires.

But the serf infantry is different. Most of the serf infantry have leather armor and at most a breastplate. This kind of light infantry cannon fodder can really die in two hits.

"The undead probably won't come again." Thinking of this, Veronica was still frightened. She held Ryan's arm and reached out to brush Ryan's still bandaged shoulder with some worry: "I'm very worried..."

"No more." Speaking of this matter, Ryan's face looked slightly better.

If we say which force suffered the most losses in this war, it was undoubtedly Neferrata and her Silver Peak Mountain army. In the end, Neferrata only led a dozen vampires from the Lahmian Sisterhood to retreat. Tens of thousands of elites accumulated over thousands of years were all destroyed in this battle. Gul was also defeated by Ryan. Ryan didn't know how many undead armies there were in Silver Peak Mountain, but I guess they wouldn't be many. The next step would be a long one. For a while, the blood queen should be unable to participate in the disputes in the old world anymore.

Ryan thought that Neferata was really not good at directing wars. She only wanted to take advantage of her and become an oriole. Therefore, her army did not arrange any reserves and pressed them all in one go. It's not surprising that the whole army was almost wiped out when attacked from two sides.

After chatting for a few more words, Ryan and Veronica returned to the king's tent located in the fort. Orica had ordered the servants to arrange everything and boiled hot water.

"Master, please let me serve you to bathe." Orika's face looked a little pale due to the excessive use of magic power before. She changed back into her black and white maid outfit, and her delicate and smooth legs were covered with slightly translucent white stockings. Wearing silk pantyhose and black strappy pointed high heels, the dark elf gently licked his lips and looked at his master expectantly.

"Okay." Ryan pulled Veronica: "Dear, together?"

"Hmph!" Veronica quickly knocked off Ryan's hand and ran away with some fear: "I washed it today! If you think about that, let's talk about it tonight!"

"Oh well."

…………I am the dividing line of bathing…………

After resting like this for two more days, the king's psychic power gradually recovered.

He began to try to contact the Fairy of the Lake. In such a powerful forbidden magic field in the Wallaya Temple, only Ryan's spiritual energy could be transmitted without being affected.

"Madam...my lady, I need your help!" The psychic echo was transmitted to the subspace and to the divine kingdom of the Lake Fairy.

"I am always with you." The goddess's reply was also very fast. Just one minute after Ryan sent the news, the gentle whisper of the fairy in the lake was conveyed to Ryan's mind: "What do you need me to help you with? My champion?”

"I need you……"
