When Zhao Xi landed on Shenlu on time and just opened his eyes in the barracks where he was offline last night, he felt someone pushing him hard and heard a hoarse voice urging and shouting in his ears.
The next moment, he saw David's familiar face, anxious and haggard: "Get up!"
Zhao Xi quickly turned over and sat up, asking: "What's wrong?"
"The orcs are attacking the city again!" David said hoarsely: "The squadron leader asked our team to go up!"
Zhao Xi asked in surprise: "How many people are there in our team?"
In the battle last night, the first squadron of the Ninth Squadron where Zhao Xi belonged was basically crippled. Six of the nine team members died and three were injured. If Zhao Xi hadn't had the Holy Healing Technique to carry it, he would have been in the position of destiny.
It's like reincarnation inside.
When they finally pulled down, Zhao Xi could still walk on his own, but David was seriously injured. Unexpectedly, he came over this morning and said he wanted to go up again.
Although he clearly knew that the other party was just an NPC, he still felt aggrieved for his teammates - why would you use soldiers to death like this, not as cannon fodder for servants?
David said helplessly: "The Orc Legion's offensive is too fierce. The squadron leader has assigned us five new recruits. Lu Xiong and the other two wounded soldiers have been treated by the army chaplain. We must go!"
"Then let's go!"
Zhao Xi stopped talking nonsense, grabbed the sword and wooden shield lying beside the bed, and left the barracks with David.
He still has less than 1,000 experience to reach level 10 and complete the first side mission, so combat is not a burden to him, but a process that must be experienced to complete the mission.
call!
When Zhao Xi followed David and led a group of new soldiers and three veterans to the city wall, suddenly a black shadow flew from outside the city wall, roaring and crashing down into the city.
Zhao Xi could clearly see that it was a heavily armed Orc warrior, who had obviously been thrown from the outside by a catapult. It was almost like a cannonball was being used on the spot.
Bang!
Before Zhao Xi could finish complaining in his heart, the cannonball orc drew an arc in the air and landed heavily just a dozen steps away from Zhao Xi.
Under the city wall, there were conical stone piers with upward tips. The orc warriors fell on them and were immediately pierced through the body, dying to the point of death.
This scene finally made Zhao Xi understand the purpose of these "ground nails" arranged here.
"Quick! Quick! Quick!"
David urged the soldiers to speed up and rush to the city wall. Unfortunately, the recruits were all level 1 rookies. They wore the thinnest leather armor and held the most ordinary iron swords. They could not withstand a casual blow from the orc warriors.
Rush up to the second city wall and go down the stone steps to the first city wall. The strong smell of blood and gunpowder smoke hits your face, making you want to vomit from the smell.
When attacking the city, the Orcs not only used "human bombs", "stone bombs" and even fire bombs, posing a serious threat to the city wall defense line. There are still many burning fire spots on the western city wall section.
was extinguished.
But there were more corpses, layers upon layers of monsters and corpses of city guard soldiers.
"Idea, they're coming!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Outside the city wall, thousands of orc warriors rushed over like a swarm. Many of them were carrying long wooden ladders. When they approached the moat, they suddenly lifted them high and built them towards the city wall.
.
The first wall of the giant rock castle is twenty meters high, and with the wide moat, the ladder would not be of much use under normal circumstances.
But these orcs were so perverted that they built a thick wooden ladder that was fifty or sixty meters long, and then it was carried by dozens of warriors. Under the cover of the shield-wielding warriors, they used brute force to lift it up.
high.
It's an incredible miracle that these seemingly shoddy goods didn't break.
Of course, in the illusory game world, many things cannot be judged according to real common sense. Although the archers of the city guard tried their best to intercept, more than twenty ladders were raised to the city wall.
Hundreds of forest goblins, like ants smelling of honey, desperately climbed up the city wall along the ladder. They held scimitars in their mouths and moved quickly.
Forest goblins are level 6 monsters. Their strength and size are not as good as those of orc warriors, but they are superior in agility and speed. They are very suitable for climbing ladders to siege cities.
boom!
A ladder was overturned by the soldiers of the city guard, and the forest goblin climbing on it suddenly fell into the moat like a dumpling.
But the remaining extremely heavy ladders were not so easy to overturn, and it was difficult to cut them off with swords and axes in a short time, so soon some forest goblins successfully climbed to the top of the city wall.
"Yo!"
A forest goblin managed to stand still. It grabbed its scimitar weapon and let out an excited call.
However, at this moment, Zhao Xi, who had just arrived at the first city wall, rushed over like a tiger coming out of the gate, and slapped the opponent hard with the iron-wood shield in his left hand.
Shield Bash!
Bang!
The forest goblin who was so carried away had the most intimate contact with the iron-clad shield. Although he was not directly knocked away, he lost his balance and fell backwards.
Zhao Xi immediately retracted his wooden shield and slashed straight up the ladder with the big sword in his hand.
Another forest goblin had just climbed to the top of the ladder and stuck its head out. Suddenly, it was hit hard on the top of its head by a big sword, and it screamed and blood burst out.
-75!-89!
A double whammy!
He has been upgraded from level 1 to the current level 9, and has gained a total of 40 free attribute points, 20 of which are invested in strength. Coupled with the power of advanced skills, his current attack power is also quite impressive.
The heavily wounded forest goblin still wanted to fall into the city wall, but Zhao Xi hit him with two swords. He immediately took away the last of his HP and rolled down with eyes wide open, contributing 60 mission experience points.
value.
The rules of the plane of destiny are more realistic. Monsters killed by Zhao Xi can only get mission experience points. Whether they are orc warriors or forest goblins, they will not explode half a copper plate or other equipment.
However, the weapons and armors on their corpses can be picked up, but they are all shoddy goods. If they are thrown into the store, no NPC will pay to buy them.
Therefore, if Zhao Xi wants to obtain better equipment, he can currently only purchase and exchange it through military exploits or money. To activate the original set of equipment, it is estimated that he will have to upgrade to level 20 or above, and water from afar cannot quench his thirst for nearness.
The forest goblins that popped up here were knocked down, and they popped up again there. In addition, orc warriors "paralleled" onto the city wall from time to time, making the city guard soldiers exhausted.
Zhao Xi ran around like a firefighter. With his brave fighting style and skillful fighting skills, he killed threatening monsters one by one, and his experience quickly accumulated.
Click!
A half-orc warrior was directly knocked to the ground by Zhao Xi's double blow. Two bright red damage figures appeared on its head instantly, it whined and twitched twice, and could no longer move.
System prompt: Successfully kill the orc warrior (elite), mission experience value +150!
The light of upgrade flashed instantly, and all of Zhao Xi's statuses were full at the same time, reaching the level 10 mark in one fell swoop.
System prompt: Complete the promotion task, experience value +1,000,000, reputation in the plane of destiny +10!
This is the first side mission that Zhao Xi has completed after entering the plane of destiny. The 1 million experience point reward is not given to "Kaos", but will be added to "Zhao Daniu".
He casually added 5 free attribute points to his constitution, raising his HP to 250 points.
Woo~
A desolate horn sound came from outside the city. Whether it was the orc warriors who had just rushed to the moat or the forest goblins who had climbed onto the city wall, they all retreated. The latter simply jumped into the moat.
The new wave of attacks by the Orc Legion is over!
Zhao Xi couldn't help but let out a long breath. If these guys continued to attack, he didn't know if he could continue to hold on.
"Kaos!"
At this moment, Zhao Xi saw Bolton rushing over.
The captain of the Gloria Guards shouted to him: "Quick, come with me to the church!"
