Chapter 501 Uninvited Guests in the Fortress Warehouse
Just when the short soldier had time to turn around, a calloused palm lightly covered his mouth.
Feeling something unexpected, the short soldier, who was already panicking to the extreme, was about to struggle for rescue.
Only then was he surprised to find that what appeared in front of him was a slender woman wearing a blue knight's casual clothes.
I saw that the other party had a delicate and fair face, and his long hair was tied back, leaving only two strands of hair hanging down from the left and right sideburns, looking very clean and neat.
For the short soldier who had been living in Kongqing Town before, he was naturally familiar with this beautiful and dashing female knight.
"Lord Lin...why do you suddenly appear here?!"
Immediately afterwards, the short soldier's hesitating voice came from between the fingers of Lin's delicate hands.
"You guys hurry up and notify Guante and ask him to dispatch the large troops on the city wall to come quickly for reinforcements!"
Nodding to the short soldier, Lin frowned and whispered softly: "Go quickly! Just leave this place to us!"
The Guante mentioned by Lin was the captain of the garrison brigade transferred to the border battlefield in Kongqing Town at that time, and the younger brother of Guan Zhong, the commander-in-chief of the garrison in Kongqing Town.
Currently, Guante also serves as the deputy commander of this Leng Yan motley army.
"Yes! This is the magic key to the barn!"
Hearing the sound, the short soldier first handed a fist-sized crystal stone to Lin, and then he and the tall soldiers beside him ran all the way towards the magic liaison station in the fortress.
As the soldiers left, the other two figures behind Lin gradually became clear. They were the two sisters Nan Xing and Nan Yue, who were petite and exquisitely dressed in black outfits.
Having said that, at the moment when the explosion just happened.
Our three-person team, who happened to be looking for traces of the missing legion nearby, immediately noticed the anomaly.
As they got closer to the warehouse and sensed a large amount of unfamiliar aura suddenly emanating from it, the three of them realized that something was very wrong, and this was how the scene that just happened happened.
"Sister Lin, I have already informed the lord."
Nan Yue nodded to the stern-faced Lin, holding a crossbow in one hand and a short blade in the other, and said solemnly: "Although I don't know how the other party did it, the one in the warehouse is probably the one that disappeared.
Holy Night Army!”
"That's right, until the lord and reinforcements arrive, only the three of us can stop this place."
Lin's mind moved, and a shining knight's sword suddenly appeared in her palm, and she nodded to Nan Xing Nan Yue beside her.
You know, this is the weakest defense area inside the fortress.
If the Holy Night Army in the warehouse is allowed to rush out in large numbers, then it should cooperate with the surrounding siege army inside and outside.
Then, what awaits this fortress on the edge of the Cold Flame Forest is naturally the only path left to destruction!
"Fortunately, the strength of this giant stone warehouse is no less than that of a military fortress. It is also protected by a moderately strong magic restriction. It should be able to withstand it for a while. Let's get started now."
Holding the knight's sword in her hand tightly, the slender Lin first used the crystal stone to open the bright barn door, and then rushed in one after another with the twin sisters on the side.
It is worth mentioning that before entering the warehouse, Lin and Nanxing Nanyue looked at each other and threw the crystal stone as the key at the door, obviously preparing to fight to the death.
As soon as they stepped into the warehouse, a smell of dampness and dust entered the nostrils of Lin and Nanxing Nanyue.
Under the dim light filled with dust, the three people noticed.
This warehouse is extremely large, with a large number of miscellaneous wooden boxes piled everywhere in an orderly manner, as well as a large number of catapults that either need to be repaired or have been dismantled. Some places even reach three or four meters high, just like
It's like a maze.
Therefore, the other party has not been seen yet.
However, the dense footsteps and the strong murderous aura in the air kept stimulating the three people's nerves.
If nothing unexpected happens, what they are about to face is a steady stream of legions of ten thousand people!
For a moment, the three of them felt that the air around them seemed to have become thicker, making it almost difficult to breathe.
"Sister Lin, you will be responsible for clearing out the lone enemies near the gate in a while. Leave the rest to me and Nan Yue."
Nan Xing nodded to the female knight, took a deep breath, and together with Nan Yue beside him, put on the invisibility cloak again and disappeared into the warehouse.
"I understand, be careful!"
Lin also took a deep breath, put on an invisibility cloak, and instantly lost sight of her.
Just as the three of them disappeared.
On the other side, in the center of the giant warehouse, a large number of figures holding sharp knives appeared densely.
Judging from the blue-patterned armor around the figure, he is a soldier of the Holy Night Army!
On the floor of the warehouse not far from these soldiers, stones were scattered everywhere, and there was a huge hole from which smoke was rising.
Among them, there were also groups of soldiers, who kept pouring out, making the whole scene quite spectacular.
Because the giant warehouse is filled with debris and large equipment.
Therefore, half of the Holy Night Army soldiers who poured out were cleaning up the surrounding debris to clear the way for the following troops.
The other half of the Holy Night Army soldiers passed through the narrow passage with murderous intent and began to spread around, looking for the location of the warehouse door.
Among these soldiers, in addition to warriors holding long swords and short knives, there are also a large number of magicians.
Before that, they had forcibly tore apart the magic restrictions inside and outside the warehouse, covering part of the ground, and then they were able to get out of the ground smoothly.
Next, as long as the magic restrictions at the warehouse door are torn apart so that the follow-up troops can pass smoothly, everything will be done naturally.
"Quickly, quickly find the exit of the warehouse and give these cold-flamed bastards a fatal blow! My big ax can't wait to see blood!"
I saw a third-level Holy Night Army commander laughing wildly, and he was the first to bear the brunt of the attack. He said ferociously: "The first team of magicians to break the restriction on magic will be rewarded heavily!"
"Got the order!"
Hearing the sound, the soldiers of the Holy Night Army behind him had serious expressions on their faces full of murderous intent, and they were eager to try.
Judging from the aura, these soldiers are at least at the level of second-level senior experts, and their strength can be said to be extremely impressive.
Compared with the ordinary Kongqing Town garrison just now, it is obviously more than one level higher.
However, this elite Holy Night Army had not gone very far.
A sharp crossbow arrow roared over and penetrated directly into the head of the third-level Holy Night commander, bringing out a dazzling blood-red streak.
"what happened?!"
Before the other stunned Holy Night Army soldiers could react.
I saw a petite and exquisite figure flashing past these soldiers at an incredible speed.
The next second, everyone clutched their necks and fell down with a look of horror on their faces.
"Sister, have you informed the lord of the situation here in detail?"
While the soldiers fell down, the slender figure that shuttled back and forth had already jumped onto a wooden box and asked another identical figure.
This person is none other than the more introverted Nanyue.
"Don't worry, sister."
Directly opposite, Nan Xing nodded solemnly, held up the colorful crossbow in his hand and said: "Before the lord arrives, these guys must not be allowed to take a step closer to the gate!"
After finishing speaking, the two of them disappeared in a flash.
…
At the same time, on the other side of the battlefield, two reports from Nan Xing were heard one after another.
Lei Xiao immediately took Ariel, Hong Ye and Bai Wei back to the mountain fortress and described everything to Mr. Bai.
As for Ye Cang and Chao Yan, they continued to stay where they were, using magic bombardment to attack the Holy Night Legion in the empty fortress.
Currently, the Holy Night Legion has almost lost its will to fight.
However, the opponent still could not rule out the possibility of other conspiracies and tricks, so two fourth-level experts were left behind just in case of emergencies.
After all, none of these three fortresses can be discarded, let alone one at the expense of the other.
During this process, the Holy Night Army Corps and the Guard Corps, which were originally approaching the mountain fortress, had also started taking action.
The long-range troops originally deployed in the rear were transferred to the direction of the forest edge fortress.
The other soldiers continued to block between the mountain fortress and the forest edge fortress to prevent our reinforcements.
At this point, the opponent's strategic intentions are already obvious.
That is to do whatever it takes and capture our forest edge fortress with all our strength first.
"I didn't expect that the Holy Night Army would actually emerge from the ground. It seems that it is the army that the other party disappeared from, right?"
After listening to Lei Xiao's description, Mr. Bai couldn't help but take a deep breath and said with disbelief on his face: "How on earth did they do it?"
"Our forest edge fortress is located halfway up the mountain. It is naturally impossible to dig such a huge tunnel first, so there is only one possibility left."
After pondering for a while, Lei Xiao responded: "It must be a passage underneath the forest fortress, and the Holy Night Army has mastered the location of the entrance to that passage!"
"It's impossible. Back then, I personally supervised the entire construction of that forest fortress, and there were no secret passages left..."
Touching his gray beard in confusion, Mr. Bai was startled at first.
Suddenly he suddenly realized: "It seems that that passage existed there before the fortress was established. In other words, it is an ancient ruins, which is still unknown!"
After a pause, Mr. Bai gently twirled his gray beard and said thoughtfully: "However, even if the other party controls the entrance to the secret passage, it is impossible for them to stuff an army of ten thousand people into it without being completely defeated by me.
Fang noticed..."
Having said this, Bai Lao seemed to have thought of something, and once again showed a look of enlightenment, and murmured to himself: "So that's it!"
"What exactly is it?"
I saw Ariel on the side, who was confused and confused, and said with a puzzled look on her face.
"Do you still remember the large-scale search conducted by the Holy Night Army during the day? Now it seems that the other party's purpose is not just to capture those poor villagers."
Looking at Ariel's puzzled look, Lei Xiao responded: "The other party must have taken advantage of that moment to cover up the public, and secretly stuffed the disappeared eighth legion into the secret passage in batches!
"
After Lei Xiao finished speaking, Mr. Bai on the side nodded in agreement, obviously agreeing with this point of view.
"So that's it. I was still wondering at that time. In order to search for my Lengyan people, the other party actually sent out tens of thousands of people. I didn't expect it to be like this..."
Ariel pondered and blinked her starry eyes, thinking thoughtfully.
"Okay, General Bai, the situation is urgent, Ariel and this place will be left to you."
Nodding slightly to the old general, Lei Xiao immediately said, "Let me take care of the rest."
"I understand, thank you for your hard work."
Looking at Lei Xiao gratefully, Mr. Bai responded: "General Bert and General Jubai are already on standby not far away. Let me let my two colleagues follow you."
"very good."
Raising his eyebrows slightly, Lei Xiao left Aling and Bing as liaisons, and then stepped onto the giant white wolf, together with Huzhang, Hongye, Bert, and Jubai.
He galloped towards the forest fortress that seemed to be the center of the storm.
…
Among the two legion long-range troops and escorts that were also moving towards the forest edge fortress, the fourth-level middle-aged Holy Night Army deputy general and the red devil one-eyed old man were moving forward without saying a word.
"Lord Red Devil, our strongest trump card, that legion from the underground tunnel, why hasn't there been a signal to rush out yet?"
After a while, looking at the completely lit sky in the direction of the fortress ahead, the middle-aged deputy general couldn't help but wonder.
"After previous detection, it was confirmed that the tunnel leads to the interior of the fortress, but there is a magic restriction blocking it above. According to the information provided by Ogu, it should be an armory."
Glancing at the middle-aged lieutenant who looked like he had a hundred thousand reasons, the Red Devil said calmly: "It should be that he was breaking the magic restriction, or he was blocked by the mysterious and powerful man who helped him."
"I see, Lord Red Devil is indeed extraordinary."
Nodding thoughtfully, the middle-aged deputy general continued: "Fortunately, Lord Red Devil did not let Augu know about this most important trump card, nor did he ask the other party to assist. Otherwise, things would have been very bad."
After finishing speaking, looking at the one-eyed old man's still expressionless old face, the middle-aged lieutenant, knowing that he was flattering him in the wrong place, smiled awkwardly.
Then he changed the subject and said: "Lord Red Devil, if the powerful man with the mysterious help has really blocked our soldiers in the armory, then the situation seems to be a little bad."
"No need to worry, don't forget that with the strongest trump card, there is another trump card. Even if the strong man with mysterious assistance really appears there, the only outcome will be death."
With a stern smile, the one-eyed old man gently stroked his beard and responded calmly: "Haha, I can't wait to see the ridiculously dumbfounded leader of the mysterious helper."
