The Winter End Fort is a huge irregular trapezoidal fortress. The wall on the side of the fort facing the north is longer and thicker, and the defense is tighter. The wall on the south side faces the interior of the war zone, so it is shorter and shorter.
.
At this moment, due to the critical situation on the north wall, the entire fortress was in chaos.
The gate of the southern city wall is wide open, and a team of temporarily recruited professionals is guiding the refugees evacuated from the city.
A large number of ordinary people, dragging their families with them, poured out of the city gate and evacuated towards the interior of the war zone, carrying breathing charms they received from professionals.
Judging from this situation, the situation on the northern city wall is obviously extremely bad.
Xue Hua and Kasha entered the fortress against the flow of people, found the professional team leader responsible for guiding refugees, and wanted to learn from him about the situation on the northern wall.
The 65th-level Paladin squad leader was already exhausted at the moment, with a look of exhaustion and nervousness on his face.
Since some demonic troops had already taken advantage of the gap in the city wall to rush into the city, and the succubi that had penetrated were also constantly causing chaos, this seemingly simple refugee evacuation work was actually not easy at all.
.
From time to time, small groups of demonic troops would appear out of nowhere and try to rush into the refugees and kill them.
At this time, they need professionals to rush forward to put out the fire and provide emergency relief.
When Kasha and Xue Hua found him, he and a barbarian teammate were struggling to resist the attack of a team of more than ten fallen demons.
This group of Sinking Demons are just clones, and their levels are only about fifty or sixty, but there is a Sinking Magician among them who is constantly resurrecting the killed Sinking Demons.
The paladins and barbarians were unable to rush over and kill the fallen magician, so the paladins could only use the aura of redemption to purify the corpses of these fallen magicians.
But the fireball shot by the fallen magician caused them a lot of trouble.
Without the blessing of fire-resistant spiritual energy, the two melee professionals were blown away by fireballs that were as powerful as high-explosive grenades.
The arrival of Kasha and Xue Hua rescued them.
After a hail of scorching arrows, the entire team of fallen demons turned into burning corpses all over the ground.
The paladin captain finally breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head with a grateful face and thanked him repeatedly.
"Thank you both for the rescue... Um, who are you?"
He discovered that the two professionals in front of him were not familiar faces he knew. Instead, they seemed to have come from the city gate against the flow of people.
"We are reinforcements coming from Midway Town. The road there has been opened. Your reinforcements will arrive soon."
Xue Hua nodded towards him and said something that shocked him and several other professionals.
"Has Midway Town been opened? Great!"
The paladin captain said happily.
This is the most encouraging news he has heard since the beginning of this war.
"Don't be too quick to rejoice. What's going on on the wall over there?" Kasha interrupted their celebration with a serious look on his face and gestured towards the towering city top on the other side.
"Um...ah, to be honest, we don't know the situation on the city wall over there very well. Since a few hours ago, the brothers who went to the city wall over there have never come back. We don't know what happened to them.
That’s it…”
As soon as this was mentioned, the paladin captain's face fell.
It can also be seen from the situation inside Winter End Fort that this war may not be going very smoothly.
"Not long ago, a big hole was blown through the city wall, and many demons took the opportunity to rush in.
There are still many succubus avatars in the city, and although the elite assassin teams of the two legions have been dealing with these guys, judging from the current situation, I'm afraid they won't be able to hold on for long."
The barbarian on one side shook his head and looked a little depressed.
"All right......"
Seeing that they didn't know much about each other, Xue Hua and Kasha could only look at each other helplessly, and after bidding farewell to the team, they walked separately towards the streets of the city.
They need to investigate the current situation on the battlefield to decide how to provide reinforcements so as not to involve themselves.
Archangel Rexnis was not with them. As an angel, his characteristics were too obvious and he could easily attract the enemy's attention.
The sky here is full of screaming winged demons, so even approaching from the air is impossible.
So he could only wait outside the city for the time being, waiting for Xue Hua and Kasha to find out the situation before discussing the specific battle plan with him.
Kasha chose to explore along the main street in the city toward the north wall to see if he could observe the battlefield through his internal vision skills.
Moreover, according to some professionals in the team just now, the two beacons of hope and the core array of Winter End Castle have been under continuous attack by demonic forces.
Kasha wanted to go there to help, and see if he could get some information from the lighthouse keeper.
Xue Hua chose the trails beside the main road. Due to the successful hatching of Leviathan and the complete expansion of the first fleet, he is no longer afraid of exposing the insect swarm to the second world.
So he simply summoned a large number of insect units and asked them to explore these forked roads under the leadership of several insect mothers.
Xue Hua ordered them to destroy all demonic troops they encountered on the spot. If they encountered human troops, the insect mother could explain to them clearly that they were friendly troops and not enemies.
Xue Hua himself also rode a cockroach and began to search the nearby area to see if he could find any lone human professionals or civilians trapped in the house.
On both sides of the streets inside the Winter Castle, a large number of houses and residences were ignited by fireballs falling from the sky. The blazing fire and black smoke obscured the sun, making it almost impossible to see the road ahead.
Along the way, Xue Hua often saw miserable human corpses or various items discarded on the ground. Occasionally, the remains of smoking caravans and beasts of burden fell on the roadside.
There were even a few charred corpses whose shapes were so black and unclear that they were stuck to the charred car frame.
Some houses were destroyed by fire, and the ruins lay in the middle of the road, blocking the entire road.
As a last resort, Xue Hua had no choice but to let the cockroach dig a path out of the ruins before he could move on.
Xue Hua frowned at these tragic scenes: Has the war situation in Winter End Castle deteriorated to this point?
This place simply looks like an abandoned city like Tristram, rather than a powerful frontline fortress in the second world.
Just when he was thinking about how to use the insect swarm to help the human side regain the situation, the springtails exploring the road ahead suddenly sent back information.
Encountered enemy troops!
Xue Hua suddenly raised his head, and the main nest mind switched to the view of the springtails, only to see that the first dozen or so springtails were already engaged with a group of about six sheep-headed demons.
These sheep-headed demons were obviously one of the demonic troops that had rushed into the city while the city wall was broken. When the springtails discovered them, they were besieging a house that was already on fire.
And there are obviously people in that house! (To be continued)
