Chapter 107: White Bone Fortress

The center of the Sigh Desert has been in a strange confrontation recently. On one side are the undead and on the other side are humans. There are no emotions and no rationality between the undead and humans, and there is always killing each other and there is no room for maneuver. So theoretically, the core area of ​​the Sigh Desert should be full of blood and death. The ground should be covered with dry bones and corpses, and the air is filled with pungent smell of blood. This is not an imagination. In the late stage of the Undead War a hundred years ago, before Kyle led the heroes into the world of the dead, the scene here was like this.

However, now, there are no dead bones, no corpses, no blood, only a piece of yellow sand, and a huge fortress at the end of the yellow sand. The fortress made of white bones is unprecedented, and stands in the endless desert, and it is particularly conspicuous. Even if it is a few kilometers apart, you can see the outline of the fortress clearly. Gradually approaching the fortress, what you see in front of you is becoming clearer and clearer. The white bones are so white that they are connected one by one, stacked together layer by layer to form a solid exterior wall. The skulls from the corpses of the ancient giant beast stand on the top of the exterior wall to form a dense arrow tower. The hole in the eyes of the giant beast is a natural arrow hole. By special means, the mouth of the giant beast skull can be opened, and the defense can be thrown into the wall, making the defense more tight.

Outside the city wall is a circle of sharp ribs. There seems to be no protective measures before the ribs. You only use the arrows above the city wall to prevent the enemy from destroying the horse. However, if experienced explorers can find that in fact, in front of the horse, there is a quicksand of several meters wide, which surrounds the entire fortress in the center in a circular shape. Using quicksand traps in the desert is the most sinister method. If you are not careful, you will be ignored and then swallowed by quicksand. Of course, even if you are swallowed by quicksand, it is not a fatal danger for high-level professions, but in the war

There are not many high-level professionals in the soldiers. Once these quicksand traps are not discovered in advance, a large number of soldiers will probably be damaged under the city wall. What's more, in real battles, in addition to the quicksand trap, there are arrows like rain falling above them. After the horse-received horse, there are enemies who have long-handled weapons and sting far away. If you want to break through the quicksand trap and destroy the quicksand trap, you will probably have to pay a considerable price. Moreover, no one can guarantee that these undead who seem to have wisdom have not mixed with other traps in the quicksand trap, which undoubtedly makes the breakthrough more difficult.

Of course, the battle has not yet broken out, so there are only a few skeletons on the city wall standing like real corpses, as if they are serving as sentinels, but no one knows whether they are real corpses or moving undeads. In addition, some skeletons constantly emit creaking and creaking sounds on their bodies, patrolling around the fortress. These skeletons all took bone-like bows and arrows and wandered between the ruling horses and the city walls, alert to observe the external movements of the outside world. Occasionally, they would open and close their jaws and make clicking sounds, as if they were talking to each other. If their appearance was ignored, the performance of these skeletons would be exactly the same as those soldiers who sent patrol in the world of smart creatures.

It is now noon the next day. The scorching sun rose to the highest point of the sky. The high temperature captured the entire desert. The air above the yellow sand became distorted under the evaporation of the high temperature, making the scenery behind the air look very strange. At this time, in the camp encirclement ten kilometers away from the White Bone Fortress, the soldiers have returned to the bunker to rest. Only the patrol soldiers are still wandering back and forth against the scorching sun and the high temperature. However, these soldiers can't hold on for too long. Every hour, the patrol soldiers will change posts to avoid long-term exposure to the sun, causing heatstroke and dehydration. But even for only one hour, it is a very cruel torture for these soldiers. The replaced soldiers, even the high-level powerful people among the elves, are as if they are exhausted and have been resting for a long time before they can recover.

However, the undead have nothing to do. The three most terrifying elements in the desert are the only ones that can really affect the undead. Sunlight can suppress the power of the undead to a certain extent, but it is only a suppression and cannot destroy them. If it is a undead who has no self-consciousness before, it may instinctively avoid the sunlight, but for the conscious undead, it can completely resist the sunlight to weaken normal activities. As for the high temperature and dryness, it cannot affect the undead at all. After all, who has seen a skeleton who is afraid of heat and dryness?

"No wonder you have to try your plan." Looking at the Bone Fortress from afar, Catherine covered the sun with her hands, observed for a while and sighed: "If the two sides really started a war, it would be better to say at night, and it would be more suitable for fighting, but in the daytime, it would probably be one-sided massacre. In such an environment, the coalition forces may not be able to even exert one-third of their strength."

"If the war starts, if the situation is delayed until the daytime, the mage will release a large-scale dark sky to try to cover the sun. However, even if the sun is temporarily blocked, the temperature on the ground will only drop slightly, and it is still very hot." Panis sighed and said, "So, pushing the battlefield into the desert is indeed of great benefit, but at the same time there are many disadvantages. The war a hundred years ago has already been reflected. But there is no way, in order to compress the front line, I can only hold on."

"Once the war begins, I really don't know how many soldiers will die in vain." Lina drew a square on her chest and sighed: "May the God of Love bless them."

A group of six people were close to the White Bone Fortress. Although they had not entered the warning range of the undead, they could already see the hideous appearance of the fortress. It can be imagined that if they stood in front of the fortress, the tall buildings and countless bones would bring them to observations. Even if they were still a distance of one kilometer, the girls could feel the palpitations brought by the fortress.

"This should be the natural pressure of the undead building. Even if you have the strength of the legendary level, you will be affected a little bit." Panis said: "Have you really thought about it? Do you have to go in with me? There is still a chance to turn back now. Once you go in, there will be no way back."

"Ha, don't you think it's too late to talk about this?" Catherine chuckled and said, "We must follow you in. Whether you take us in or not, this result will not be changed."

"So, why do you guys go in?" Panis said with a headache: "To be honest, you really can't help me, it's just a burden."
