Chapter 54 In The Long Night
The ones who followed also met a miserable end. Their fronts were burned to black coal, but their backs were intact.
Even the weakened pain caused them to fall to the ground in pain and howl out of their mouths.
The Four Vendors never cared about the weak, and neither did its followers. The beastmen who continued to pour in walked over their bodies without caring.
"Mage! Kill!! Sacrifice!"
The beastman was not frightened by the fireball. On the contrary, he rushed in even more excitedly.
Sacrifice ordinary elves and magic elves to get blessings from evil gods one by one.
"Huge Fire Ball!!"
But Carter is not an ordinary mage. After using the fire ball three times, he still has enough chakra.
Therefore, he gave them another fire of death without hesitation.
"Zizzizi"
The high-temperature flames burned the beastmen who tried to rush ahead and entered the camp into black coal, causing them to follow in the footsteps of their 'predecessors'.
The corpses of beastmen were piled up at the door.
Despite the casualties, the Beastmen rushed in desperately, and Carter had to step aside to avoid being accidentally injured by friendly forces, giving up his position to the soldiers of the Eagle Legion.
The soldiers leaned against each other, each protecting the right side of his body and the left side of his teammates, forming a solid shield wall.
"ha!"
"Boom!"
The beastmen who rushed in instantly collided with the elf soldiers at the door.
The sharp spear pierced through many beastmen who could not stop, and easily took away their lives.
But this was just an appetizer. Seeing the door being knocked open, more powerful beastmen rushed towards the gap.
The addition of several tauren who were over two meters tall instantly doubled the pressure on the defending elves.
The charging tauren are astonishingly powerful. They lower their heads and charge forward like a small truck.
In one fell swoop, he knocked several people away without distinguishing between friend and foe.
Even two elves supported by the shields of their comrades behind them were knocked away, and a gap appeared in the formation.
These tauren were so powerful that they pushed back the shield formation composed of dozens of people. Other horned beasts took this opportunity to rush into the camp to participate in the wrestling.
“What a beautiful thought!”
Carter, who had stepped aside, had just finished dealing with a boulder that suddenly flew over, and then joined the occupying battle at the door.
He dodged and appeared upside down in the sky above the beastman.
The halberd in Carter's hand immediately struck out hard and slashed the backs of several tauren with an axe.
"Zi!!!"
Blood flowed out like spring water, and the tauren whose necks were half cut off immediately fell to the ground.
Carter's behavior caused the elves, whose pressure was relieved, to immediately resume their suppression of the door.
After getting rid of the tauren, Carter used his toes to stick to the wall made of logs.
He quickly formed seals with his hands to circulate chakra, and spit out another big, hot fireball towards the beastman huddled below.
"Roar!!!!!!!!!!!"
"ah!!!!"
The power of this fireball was fully unleashed, exploding among the crowd of beasts and causing huge damage.
Fierce fighting was taking place all around the camp.
……………………………………………………
At the same time, in the legion commander's tent, Arisianar was tinkering with a magic gem.
It is engraved with complex and mysterious magical eight wind runes.
The activated gem emitted a faint light, and soon the light became brighter and illuminated the entire tent.
"Kedrina?"
"It's me, why are you contacting me at this time?"
"Listen to me, Caidrina, we have encountered a full-scale attack by the Chaos forces and urgently need support! Counting from your camp, we are about 20 kilometers deep into the forest, and the number of beastmen besieging us is at least five thousand!, but
It’s very likely that everyone who fled to the forest is here! The situation is urgent!”
"Roger, I understand! But we can't march at night. Can we hold on until eight o'clock tomorrow morning? As soon as dawn comes, I will lead a cavalry force of more than 1,500 people to rush over quickly, and the infantry will follow soon!"
"You have to hold on even if you can't, I'm counting on you here!"
"Copy that! Hold on to Aris, I will definitely bring reinforcements as soon as possible! ... If you encounter any emergency, you must evacuate yourself!"
The magic gem in Aris's hand lost its activity just after transmitting the last sentence and turned back into an ordinary gem.
After sighing, Aris put down the gem in his hand, grabbed his weapon and walked out of the tent to join the battle.
…
At the same time, Cadrina, who was outside the forest, also put down the magic gem in her hand, walked out of the tent with a worried look on her face, quickly walked to the arrow tower, and looked at the forest not far away.
She was dozens of kilometers away from the troops led by Arisianar, and she didn't know the details of the battle and couldn't imagine what the battle was going on in the distance.
I could only vaguely see a faint light from the moon or something through the trees.
"Did the princess get some bad news?"
The elf maid wrapped in a quilt on the side held a lantern and walked to Cadrina's side.
"Aris and his legions were surrounded by the legions of Chaos..."
"What? Prince Aris? Then we have to reinforce them immediately!"
"It's too late now, we don't have the ability to march at night, and even if we go in at this time, we are likely to encounter an ambush and fall into the same fate as Aris.
Now we can only wait for dawn.
Let the soldiers rest for a while while it's still possible.
We will arrange this later. We will first gather the 'Dark Crow Knights' and the infantrymen who can ride horses among ordinary soldiers to form a vanguard of 1,500 people and rush to support first, and the remaining infantrymen will follow quickly.
I will command the vanguard, and the remaining troops will be led by you."
"Understood! I'll make arrangements right away... But princess, those mages are setting out with you, right?"
After hearing this, the maid immediately nodded in agreement.
"Well, after a hard night's battle, we will definitely need a mage to open up the situation when we arrive. If you don't have a mage, you must go there carefully! Don't get caught in an ambush!"
"Yes! Your Highness Princess! I will make arrangements now!"
After the maid left, the entire camp fell into silence again.
Only Cadrina knew that this was the last calm before the storm.

"boom!"
The Cyclops throwing begins again.
This time they learned the lesson, and instead of throwing the three heads together, they threw them separately, and changed to changing places after shooting.
This makes it difficult for Arisianar to stop them.
Although his magic bow has amazing power and range, the amount of magic wind he can store and call is limited. There is no way to fire unlimited 'light arrows' and 'explosion arrows' that can deflect stones. They can only be reserved for throwing.
Stones coming over.
The entire camp was caught in a bitter fight, with beastmen pouring in from all directions like cockroaches.
Killing one group after another, no matter how hard you kill them, you can't finish them all.
After more than two hours of fighting, the Eagle Legion had suffered more than two hundred casualties. Seventy of them had turned into cold corpses lying on the ground, and the corpses left by the beastmen had been piled up beside some walls.
There was a pile of corpses almost as high as the wall.
"Asurs! Don't be afraid! Use your courage to survive this night! Our reinforcements will arrive early tomorrow morning!!"
"God bless Asul! Fight to the bitter end!"
In order to stabilize the morale and morale of the army, Arisianar would say this whenever he went to a place where support was needed.
Although this behavior stabilized the morale of the army, it could not change the fact that many elven soldiers were already showing fatigue after fighting during the day and night.
Aris Anar was anxious in his eyes, but he had no good solution.
It was the first time he led the Eagle Legion to face such a crisis situation, which he had never expected.
If he had known that Chaos had re-screened a beast king, he would never have led two thousand people in like this.
