Just as the war in King's Port was about to enter a fierce stage, under the jungle in the west of Linhai, Xue Hua was also doing the final training of the insect swarm in the insect nest.
Due to the existence of the strange gray mist, Xue Hua was not prepared to let the insect swarm and the demon army fight hard this time, and he did not even plan to assist King's Port in defending the city. He knew that when the Demon Fortress Council learned of
When King's Harbor is the first kingdom in the western border to receive a large-scale attack, the focus of reinforcements will be immediately shifted there.
They are not far away from receiving large-scale reinforcements. As long as they can hold on to the city wall for at least two days, various reinforcements from other human kingdoms will continue to arrive through the port of King's Harbor.
And if the nobles in King's Port have the advantage of the city wall and more than 100,000 professional garrison, but they can't hold on for even two days...
Then Xue Hua felt that it was better to let these wastes fend for themselves, so as not to waste the resources of the first world.
Therefore, the current battle plan of the insect swarm is not to assist the defense of King's Port at all, but to prepare to detour from the underground passage near Branwell in the west of Linhai to the north of Tristram, and directly attack the demon army in the city when all the demon army is out.
Attack Tristram and give Skeleton King a "drainage" from the bottom of the cauldron.
Of course, in order to successfully implement this strategy, one condition is essential, and this condition is that Xue Hua must hold the crown that seals part of the soul of the Skeleton King in his hands.
Only with this thing can the insect swarm have the capital to compete with the Skeleton King. Otherwise, when the insect swarm attacks the city, Leoric suddenly goes crazy and no one can stop him.
"Isa, I'll leave it to you to arrange the battlefield on the other side."
"Understood, Lord."
Inside the insect nest, Xue Hua said hello to Isa, asking her to focus more on the "circling back" battlefield of the insect swarm. Then he and Dehaka walked from the other side of the insect nest.
Go in the side passage towards King's Harbor.
Along the way, Xue Hua was paying attention to the frontal battlefield of the King's Harbor city wall. He also saw the wave of long-range attacks by humans and the subsequent counterattack of the undead army.
Xue Hua's brows slowly furrowed as he looked at the scene of mourning on the top of the city.
"It seems that the Skeleton King has also sent his generals over. This wave of bait tactics is really sophisticated!"
He began to think that it was better to let the insect swarm quietly reinforce the defenders. With such a powerful opponent, it was really uncertain whether King's Harbor could survive two days.
But soon, he began to look at the commander of the King's Harbor garrison with admiration.
The chaos on top of the city did not last long before it stabilized again with the help of a group of elite officers who suddenly swarmed onto the city wall.
This group of elite officers obviously has a completely different iron-blooded aura from the rookie officers on the city wall. They have obviously seen big scenes.
Although they were not many in number, they really played the role of pillars at this moment, cooperating with the commanders on the city to stabilize the army that was about to collapse.
Obviously, this group of officers was a back-up move prepared by the commander. He had already made plans to deal with various situations before the war started.
Thinking about defeat before winning, this city defense commander is not only not an ordinary person, but on the contrary, he is also a very stable person.
"I didn't expect that there are still capable people in King's Port! Now, although the opponent is very strong, King's Port is not weak either. It seems that this battle can be dragged on... Huh?"
Just when Xue Hua was about to conclude that this war could last at least three to five days, a huge figure wearing a full black knight's armor suddenly walked out of the gray mist in front of the city wall.
This figure dragged a black "one-handed hammer" about three meters long in one hand, and held a black round shield as big as a round table in the other hand, and walked step by step from the gray fog to the city wall.
"Humans in the city, listen up! I am the Lord of Death, the 'Black Knight' Griswold under King Leoric!
If you still want to live, surrender the city immediately and hand over my crown!
Otherwise, when our army breaks through the city, King's Harbor will turn into a ghost!"
Griswold!!
When the huge voice of the Black Knight resounded throughout the city, everyone who heard this sentence fell into a state of confusion.
Griswold Who is that?
The legendary Paladin of the past!
And he is one of the first world superpowers who is about to come into contact with that realm!
The suit of the Paladin - the legend of Griswold, was made by him himself!
It is said that this legendary paladin was just building the last part of this set of equipment when Tristram was about to fall. He was experiencing the highest realm above the legend by building this powerful set of equipment that he had devoted all his efforts to.
.
As a result, just when he was about to succeed, the demon god Diavolo came to him.
This terrifying demon personally killed Griswold, and at the same time tried to take away the artifact-level suit.
As a result, Griswold struck the final blow before Diavolo arrived, and the suit was formed, and his power successfully crossed that step through the resonance of the suit.
With Griswold's hard work and the powerful power that spread when he was promoted, this suit quickly escaped Diavolo's control and flew around the world. From then on, he hid himself like Tageo's incarnation.
Got up.
Diavolo was immediately furious. It crazily corroded Griswold's body, tortured and twisted the soul of this originally noble legendary paladin with the power of hell, and completely degenerated it into a ferocious and vicious beast.
monster.
Moreover, Griswold, who was twisted by Diavolo, has been left in Tristram.
It is said that the King of Fear hopes that this originally heroic and fearless Paladin will cause more killings in the world. The more people it kills, the more severely its soul will be distorted, and the stronger its own power will be.
Now, this terrifying legendary knight is standing in front of a group of human defenders on the city wall, with a huge undead army behind him like a sea of bones. He has just personally given them an ultimatum of surrender.
On top of the city, there was a trace of bitterness on the corner of Massi's mouth. He turned back and glanced at the deputy behind him. He saw a look of panic on the face of the paladin who had followed him through the second world, and then he looked up again.
Looking at the professional soldiers beside the city wall who were stunned by Griswold's name, their hearts were suddenly filled with a sense of helplessness and decadence.
This battle is no longer possible.
From the moment Griswold personally went into battle, the morale of the entire King's Harbor army had been robbed.
Not to mention the endless army of undead pouring out of the gray mist behind the Black Knight...
Akarat, is King's Port going to be completely defeated today?
