At 12 o'clock at noon, the black skeleton army came to the city and surrounded No. 14 Stronghold.
At this time, everyone had given up on evacuating and trying to take a look at other exits.
Not long ago, signals from No. 1, No. 4 and No. 8 were sent one after another, and the same crisis also occurred in those three strongholds.
Some people have visited other descending points and found that the exits there were also blocked by the breath of death.
All human beings in the secret realm are now trapped in a urn, and the only way to survive is to cling to their strongholds.
The breath of death cannot block the dimensional rift for a long time. As long as you hold on, you will have a chance.
At this moment, the extraordinary troops at Stronghold 1 and Stronghold 8 have given up decisively, and they have all gathered towards Stronghold No. 4 in the middle, preparing to concentrate their efforts to defend the city.
The remaining stronghold No. 14 is too far away from the three strongholds, and it is impossible to pass there, so we can only fight alone.
The extraordinary army in Stronghold No. 14 chose to conceal this news.
Once leaked, it will definitely lead to unstable military morale.
Many people will try to escape to No. 4 Stronghold.
In fact, if one or two stronger people sneak out, there is indeed a high probability that they can escape alive.
If there are too many people, they will definitely be discovered by the skeleton army.
On the plains, it is impossible to outrun the skeleton cavalry.
According to preliminary statistics, there are about five thousand extraordinary beings in Stronghold 14.
Except for a small number of black iron supernatural beings who have a professional nature, most of them are bronze supernatural beings.
Especially those teams of extraordinary people who enter secret realms to hunt for treasures must all be bronze level or above, otherwise they will not even be able to apply for a dimensional pass.
Although the number of people is large, the mid-to-high-end combat power is very small.
In the entire No. 14 stronghold, only the Extraordinary Army Battalion Commander is a strong person in the third level of gold.
The number of silver masters is also small, only 27.
At this moment, 70% of the extraordinary beings were already waiting in formation on the city wall, looking solemnly at the skeleton cavalry outside the city, all of them extremely nervous.
The person commanding this skeleton army is a golden fifth-level skeleton warrior.
Riding a tall skeleton horse with a shoulder height of more than three meters, holding a bone gun, the ghost fire in the eye sockets was extinguished, revealing the light of wisdom.
It itself is also very tall. Although its armor is very tattered and does not actually have any defensive effect, it is still worn on its body.
The exposed bones are like jade, glowing with crystal clear golden luster.
A cloak that looked like it was stained with blood was draped behind his back, fluttering in the wind.
The bone gun held tightly in his hand looked terrifying at first glance. The body of the gun, which was more than three meters long, had blood grooves on it, and the sharp tip of the gun had a sheen like steel.
Obviously, there are life entities similar to humans in other worlds, or they once existed.
The Skeleton Warlord did not let the cavalry attack the city. He raised his bone spear high and stirred up an invisible wave that quickly spread to the entire battlefield.
After receiving the order, tens of thousands of skeleton cavalry quickly retreated to both sides, followed by skeleton warriors armed with various weapons, who began to advance forward uniformly.
There are also many strange beasts, skeletons, and monsters. Although the steps are not so neat, they still follow the orders and prohibitions.
In addition, the real threat to the tall city walls are those huge skeleton creatures.
A bone dragon with a wingspan of hundreds of meters was hovering in the air, and there were various skeletal creatures on the ground that were dozens of meters tall.
There are huge human-shaped skeletons and tall animal-shaped skeletons.
These behemoths made the extraordinary people on the city wall feel a huge sense of oppression.
A huge skeleton monster is certainly not weak in strength.
Basically they are silver grade, and a few are high-grade bronze.
The extraordinary army guarding Stronghold No. 14 is actually the Xilin Army. The highest officer is called Hao Guangtai, who is a major-level officer of the Xilin Army.
Hao Guangtai is not tall. He looks a little thin and bookish when wearing dimensional armor. He looks more like a civilian officer.
But when he picked up the dimensional sword, his military aura immediately came out, and his eyes were full of perseverance.
He stood in the middle of the city wall, with a light blue light flowing on the dimensional sword in his hand, as if it contained some kind of energy, which was shocking.
Hao Guangtai raised his sword high and ordered in a deep voice: "The first team is ready to meet the enemy, and the second team is on standby!"
The number of skeleton legions is more than ten times that of the stronghold defenders, but as long as they stabilize their morale and defend desperately, they still have a chance to defend.
The walls of the secret stronghold were of course built to resist the invasion of dimensional monsters.
The materials are made of a mixture of thick dimensional iron stones and have extremely strong defensive properties.
The average height reaches 100 meters!
The wall is 50 to 80 meters thick at the bottom and 30 to 60 meters wide at the top.
Moreover, the city wall is built based on the terrain, and it is already very difficult to climb up the city wall.
Relying on the advantage of the city wall, five thousand extraordinary people took turns to defend, and they had the capital to defend it.
But the biggest problem is when the blocked dimensional exit will be unlocked.
A thousand extraordinary troops can defend themselves against any difficult situation, but the other three or four thousand extraordinary ones are hard to say.
It is impossible to stay alone for too long.
Under everyone's nervous gaze, the leading troops of the Skeleton Legion had rushed within a hundred meters of the stronghold city wall.
"attack!"
Hao Guangtai waved his sword and gave the order to attack.
In an instant, all kinds of long-range attacks were launched at the same time, overwhelmingly shooting at the skeleton monster below.
In addition to various colorful long-range dimensional skills, there are also some extraordinary beings who use bows and arrows, and there are also a hundred Xilin troops armed with extraordinary machine guns.
The bullets used by these extraordinary machine guns contain extraordinary power and can kill extraordinary creatures.
However, this kind of extraordinary bullet is made of dimensional crystals, and the ammunition inventory in the entire Stronghold 14 is not much.
Under the blow of these long-range attacks, the vanguard of the skeleton army fell in pieces.
However, these cannon fodder skeleton soldiers were originally meant to rush forward to die. They were basically at the black iron level. Their purpose was to consume the energy of human extraordinary beings.
There is another purpose, which is to use their bones to pile up under the city wall to serve as steps for the real siege army.
At this time, Lin Li quickly arrived at the corner of the stronghold, carrying the dimensional crystal he took from Wang Yonghui on his back.
He picked a house at random and walked in, intending to accumulate experience points.
Under the stronghold city wall, a group of extraordinary people gathered there to wait.
The atmosphere was very depressing, and everyone looked very solemn.
For those who are timid, their legs will become weak and they will be unable to stand firmly.
Especially some young extraordinary beings.
In addition to Wang Qingshui's team, there are seven teams of students from the Extraordinary Academy in the stronghold.
A total of forty-three students gathered together, listening to the roar of the monster outside the city with great fear.
"Where is Lin Li? Where has he gone?"
Wei Guangzhong was also very frightened. He suddenly discovered that Lin Li, who was just beside him, had disappeared at some point.
"Are you hiding?" Wu Chunhong frowned.
The two spoke very softly, but they were so close that they could still be heard by other students next to them.
However, no one jumped out to ridicule Lin Li at this time. If possible, they would also like to hide.
After all, we are all students. It is inevitable that we will be scared when we experience this kind of thing for the first time.
"No." Wang Qingshui shook his head and said, "He said that he was about to be promoted to Silver and was looking for a place to break through."
"Ah! He's going to be promoted to Silver? That's a lie!"
"Yes! When he was slandered as a lackey of the Demon Cult, his personal information was released. I remember last week he was still in the third or fourth level of Bronze!"
"It must be an excuse! Actually, I understand. To be honest, I also want to hide."
"Made! I'm just a student! If you want me to participate in a city defense battle of this level, what's the difference between that and dying!"
"Don't panic, everyone. Unless we really can't stand it anymore, we won't be allowed to go up and fight."
The student team, which had been lifeless just now, started chatting in low voices.
Everyone didn't really believe Wang Qingshui's words.
