Not long after, as Nalant imagined, the defense of Quint Castle became tense.
At this time, more than fifty skeleton soldiers who were lucky enough to survive the trebuchet gathered under the castle.
There are more than a dozen skeleton archers among these skeleton soldiers. With their suppression, the guards on the city wall can no longer stretch out their heads and throw rolling stones without any scruples as before.
There was even an unlucky guy who was accidentally hit by an arrow when he stretched out his head to throw a rolling stone. He screamed and fell from the city wall into a group of dark creatures, where he was swarmed by skeleton soldiers and torn into pieces.
At this time, the pressure on the melee skeletons climbing the city wall suddenly decreased, and their climbing speed became faster and faster.
Soon, the first skeleton soldier climbed onto the wall. The moment he climbed onto the city wall, the first skeleton soldier was hit by several spears and was stabbed directly down.
But the second one, the third one, the fourth one... As more and more skeleton soldiers climbed onto the city wall, the sounds of fighting and mourning began to be heard from the castle.
"Narant, look, that should be Quint, he's coming in person!" At this moment, a ray of fighting spirit suddenly lit up on the city wall.
Since the only vassal was killed by Nalant, the only title knight in Quint's territory was Quint himself, the lord.
Seeing that the skeleton soldiers had climbed up the wall, Quint also knew that he could no longer hide.
Quint may seem bloated, and he is also sarcastic, but his vindictiveness built on the accumulation of massive resources cannot be overshadowed.
With the strength of his bronze high-level knight, the skeleton soldiers have no chance of defeating him under his long sword.
With the addition of Quint, although the skeleton soldiers continued to climb the city wall, they were about to be gradually suppressed by him.
"Roar!" At this moment, the death knight who had arrived at the edge of the moat suddenly roared.
Following this roar, the skeleton soldiers who originally only knew how to kill seemed to have received some instructions and immediately moved towards the top of the city gate.
"No, those skeleton soldiers must want to lower the suspension bridge!" Nalant and the others could clearly see the battle on the castle. After seeing the actions of the skeleton soldiers, Boris couldn't help but exclaimed.
Of course, he doesn't have any special feelings for Quint.
But as a noble lord, when he saw the castle being attacked by dark creatures, he naturally took part in the attack himself.
Well, it's like watching a movie in a previous life, it's the so-called sense of immersion...
Boris exclaimed before he stood down. Quint and his guards on the city wall also noticed the situation, but unfortunately it was too late to react.
Wow!
Boom!!
A muffled sound was heard. The ropes fixing the suspension bridge had been broken by several skeleton soldiers, and the suspension bridge was lowered in an instant.
"Roar!" Upon seeing this, the Death Knight immediately led five headless horsemen across the moat.
Boom! Boom!
Next, there was a deafening crashing sound on the city gate, which Nalant and the others could hear clearly even a mile away.
Fortunately, the gate of Quint Castle is extremely strong, and it still stands firm even in the face of the brutal collision of several headless horsemen and the death knight.
If it were replaced by the old wooden door of Nalant Castle, he believed that it would never last for a few seconds.
"It seems that the repair of the castle is really going to speed up!" Nalant saw the intensity of siege warfare in this world, and also thought of his own somewhat old castle.
While his mind was wandering, the melee on Quint's castle became more and more tense with the banging sound.
Roars and screams echoed for miles in this silent night.
As time gradually passed, Quint paid a heavy price and was about to finish off the skeleton soldiers on the city wall. But at this moment, the castle gate below began to creak.
"The castle gate won't last long!" Boris immediately whispered, and the small rebound of the castle gate actually turned into swaying.
.
Quint also noticed this problem and quickly led the guards to the top of the gate, and then threw watermelon-sized rolling stones downwards desperately.
However, the vitality of the second-level dark creatures is obviously stronger than that of the skeleton soldiers. Although the hell dogs will howl in pain after being hit, they are not enough to kill them with one hit.
The same is true for the headless horsemen. Some of them stood up after being knocked off their horses and continued to hit the city gate.
Roar!
boom!
There was not much time left for Quint and the others. Just two minutes later, the dark creature finally broke open the castle door at the cost of two hell dogs being seriously injured and a headless horseman falling apart.
The final blow was made by the death knight. With a roar, it sprinted towards the city gate from more than ten meters away. A door panel of the city gate fell to the ground in an instant.
"Roar! Death is coming! Tremble! humble creatures!"
The city gate was knocked open, and the death knight waved his sword and rushed into the castle with the remaining dark creatures.
"They're finished!" Looking at this scene, Boris muttered.
The scene tonight was too shocking for them. It was just that hundreds of dark creatures invaded a baron's castle with complete defense facilities without any equipment.
"No wonder people across the continent are extremely afraid of dark creatures. When they regain their fighting strength, they are a group of terrifying beings." Nalant also secretly smacked his tongue in his heart.
"Narant, what should we do now?" Boris looked at Narant at this time.
"Wait, this group of dark creatures must be destroyed, otherwise they will still target us after they sack the castle!" Nalant replied.
"Okay!" Boris heard this, with a bitter look on his face.
However, he also knew that what Narant said was the only option.
As Nalant said, once everyone in the castle is killed, the dark creatures will continue to hunt them. If you want to survive with your men, you can only completely eliminate them.
Fortunately, these dark creatures were consumed a lot during the siege, so the pressure they will bear next will not be so great.
"Boris, we have to make some arrangements in advance!"
"Narant, what do you want to do?"
"Let's go to the river to make arrangements!" From the moment he stopped to rest, Nalant was already thinking about how to finish.
He finally chose the location of the battle on the bank of the downstream river outside Quint Castle.
Boris looked at the river bank and was confused for a few seconds before realizing it and his eyes immediately lit up. "Okay!"
Next, the two people quickly led the team to the beach, and then began to set up.
Speaking of this layout, it is actually very simple. It still requires digging enough pits for traps.
At this time, the main combat power of dark creatures is the headless horseman and the death knight, so digging horse traps can greatly restrict their movements.
In addition, Nalant chose the tidal flat for a reason. Due to the erosion of the river water, the land on the river bank was muddy and soft, which made it more difficult for the horses to move.
"Quick, take out the iron hooks you are wearing."
After arranging everything, Nalant gave instructions to Quick again.
Quick and others immediately took off several iron hooks from their waists.
Each of these hooks has two claws, which are not heavy in themselves and are only as thick as a little finger.
"Narant, what are you using this iron hook for?" Boris was a little confused.
"For dealing with those headless horsemen and death knights!" Nalant smiled slightly and took off the large bundle of ropes from the saddle.
Then the rope was cut into sections and tied to the end of the hook.
In this way, the iron hook becomes a hook lock, and then the guards can throw the iron hook far away and try to drag the Headless Horseman and Death Knight off their horses.
"You are even prepared for this!" Boris's eyes widened.
"Boris, I told you that I am professional in dealing with dark creatures!" Nalant patted his chest and spoke proudly.
Of course, the real situation is that he has racked his brains for this invasion of dark creatures.
If he had absolute strength, he would promise not to do anything fancy and just run over and beat him to death. Wouldn't he be cool?
