Chapter 183 Battle for the Defense Line



Chapter 183 Battle for the Defense Line

Tanr's messenger ran into Rand on the road.

Since the vibration communication device was still under testing and was very unstable, Taner not only used the vibration communication device to communicate, but also sent a messenger.

After Rand took the letter from the messenger, he glanced at it, confirmed that it was the same message sent by the vibration communication device before, and then handed the letter to Olenna.

As the situation was rather urgent, Rand naturally did not sit in the carriage, but rode on horseback with his guards.

After coming to this world, this may be a rare life skill that Rand has learned in this world, which is riding a horse.

Riding a horse is definitely not as safe as riding in a carriage.

But there was no need to worry too much since Elsa and Olena were on guard beside him.

Olenna's swift sword finally had the last piece of the puzzle together.

[Name: Dawn Type: Swift Sword Ability: Devil Breaker]

Unlike the last time, this time the combination did not show any dramatic changes. Even the sword blade that was originally flowing with silver light became a little dimmer, as if it had become restrained.

But now and then mysterious patterns appear on the hilt and the guard, which looks very magical.

Olenna tried wielding it and commented that it seemed sharper and more effective in destroying magic.

More needs to be experienced in real combat.

Rand's memory of this weapon remained in the video he had seen in his previous life. In short, this weapon not only looked fancy, but also had a very powerful actual effect.

In short, it is a [divine weapon].

The road to Crescent Territory has been completely paved, so the marching speed is very fast. However, the road leads to the Haunted Iron Mine, so it will take some distance to reach the Crescent Territory's defense line.

At this time, in the haunted iron mine, the Steelburning Squad and Bishop Seth walked out of the mine.

"Solved." Bishop Seth announced calmly, "At least in the coming winter and the spring after winter, the invasion of the undead will be weakened."

The adventurers outside cheered.

Due to the policy of the den, the interests of the adventurers are consistent with the interests of the den.

And because the den collects taxes based on a proportion, the more the adventurers work, the more they get, which is a typical case of "the more you work, the more you earn".

The undead would hinder their mining and gathering, but now, the high-level undead in the mines have been dealt with by the army in the hideout.

Many adventurers are old folks in the den. They were attracted by the ruins at first, and then stayed because of the complete facilities and the relaxed and stable adventure environment.

After all, there aren't many places that can provide stable jobs for adventurers.

In the beginning, the den was not as prosperous as it is now, and the number of adventurers was very small.

But later on, the Adventurer's Association reached a cooperation with the local lords and began to train adventurers.

And thanks to the publicity of the Adventurer's Association, more and more adventurers are arriving here.

However, many adventurers were still surprised to see a legendary team of adventurers appear here and seem to be settling down in the resort.

But they are worthy of being a legendary adventurer team. I heard before that it was them who broke through the boss of the eighth floor in the ruins, the giant monster with three heads.

Now they have defeated the high-level undead that were hindering their work.

They even heard that this team of legendary adventurers opened a restaurant in the resort villa, and they would like to try the food made by the legendary adventurers to see what is different if they have the chance.

Bishop Seth shook hands with Captain Steel's team. This time, some unexpected things were found deep in the mine. However, the Steel team had signed an agreement with the hideout before carrying out the mission, so they would not talk nonsense.

Actually, there is nothing wrong with telling it out. It is not information that will cause trouble, at least that is the view of the Steel Squad.

After parting with the Steelfire Team, Bishop Seth called a few missionaries and prepared to find a place to write a report to Rand. This time, they did find something in the mine.

Line of defense.

Although it is still autumn, it is already very cold, but the people on the defense line cannot feel it.

Because there is fire, blood, and corpses everywhere.

The Second Prince's orders were to protect him and retreat, but in such chaos, it was not easy to execute orders.

At this time, outside the defense line, the knights who were carrying out the task of destroying the catapults were furious.

"Return for help!" In a short period of time, the knights experienced great ups and downs in their mood, from the nervousness before departure, to the joy of thinking they had found an opportunity, to the worry when they realized something was wrong, and now, the fear.

The Snow Fox Countess didn't care about these catapults at all. She wanted to reach the target in one go and directly break through this already shaky line of defense.

Ignoring the flaming catapults, the knights turned their horses and charged towards the defense line.

The Snow Fox Countess would naturally not allow them to return to defense so easily.

She herself rode on the horse, armed to the teeth, with the knight's sword raised.

Unlike many commanders who like to sit at the back and give orders, she prefers to implement military plans personally.

When they tried to cross the defense line and raid Crescent Territory before, it was she who led the soldiers personally.

The same is true now.

As a senior professional, the probability of her getting injured is not high when she is fully armed. She is also a courageous type.

He pointed the raised knight's sword forward: "Charge with me."

The most elite soldiers went to seize the city gates and high points of the city walls, but a considerable number of cavalry were still left behind to be used as elite cavalry to block the defense line.

Since she was armed to the teeth, the Countess of Snow Fox did not wear any special, recognizable patterns on her body, so the knights on the defense line naturally could not recognize her.

The number of cavalrymen led by Countess Snow Fox was not large, only about 200 or so, while there were more than 500 cavalrymen on the defense line.

It certainly cannot be stopped for too long, but the Snow Fox Countess does not need to stop it for too long either.

These knights who wanted to return to defense were already very anxious, but the resistance slowed down their pace, and they could only watch their defense line being invaded.

After the city gate was captured, the soldiers originally stationed in the camp also began to charge towards the defense line.

The order given to them by the Snow Fox Countess was to take them down in one fell swoop.

Then they discovered that there were surprisingly many soldiers on the defense line, but these soldiers had low morale, old weapons, and poor training.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

However, the number of people was really large. The soldiers who tried to fight for the defense line were very confused. Since there were so many people on the opposite side, why did they have to hide in the defense line and get beaten instead of fighting them head-on?

Although the morale and weapons of these people were indeed a bit lacking, their numbers were indeed not small.

Even now, these tired and panicked soldiers were fleeing everywhere, and it would take a lot of effort to kill, injure or capture them.

The defense line was filled with blood. Of course, the place with the most casualties was the core fortress, which was the area where the second prince was located.

The second prince was completely at a loss at this time. According to his plan, the worst outcome was that he would fail to destroy the catapult and would retreat with the remaining soldiers in the defense line.

What is the situation now? Where did these people come from? And are the soldiers on the defense line just eating for nothing? With so many people and occupying the advantageous terrain, why can't they stop the invasion?

The second prince cursed loudly and watched the bloody battles at several intersections in the fort with a cowering look.

Many nobles have come here with their cronies, and now they are the only ones who still have some fighting power.

Most of the nobles' confidants have better food and bring their own weapons and equipment.

And as long as the nobles they are loyal to are not dead, they can maintain some combat effectiveness.

But other than that, it was almost a one-sided massacre.

Behind the defense line, Taner was somewhat glad that his judgment was correct, but also somewhat regretful that he had really overestimated the Second Prince. The defense line was about to fall in such a short time.

Originally, Taner thought that this line of defense, which he personally supervised the repair of, would never fall under the circumstances of equal military strength.

It seems that there are still many loopholes in the defense line, Taner sighed.

He would have to research what went wrong afterwards. It was really embarrassing for him to have his defense breached like this.

According to his idea, even if the commander was a waste, the army would not be breached so quickly.

However, filling the loopholes is a matter for later. Now we need to drive out those who dare to invade the defense line.

Now the shouts of killing on the defense line are deafening, and there is still time for everything.

Taner looked back at Fenris who was also fully armed, and then ordered: "Let's go."

During this period, some new recruits who had completed training came, but their number was not large. Together with the original ones and the knights supported by the Marquis of Black and Brown and the Earl of the Stag, the number reached 700.

Although it was a bit embarrassing to call himself an elite, Taner was still very confident in the fighting ability of these people.

It is naturally much easier to enter the defense line from behind, even if many places on the city wall have been occupied by the enemy.

The number of troops in the hideout was not large, and compared with the thousands of people originally stationed on the defense line and the more than a thousand people who invaded, it seemed like a drop in the bucket.

But the troops in the hideout were very familiar with the defense line, and their morale was high.

After more than a month of rest and training in the rear, their combat effectiveness is at its peak.

After they entered the defense line under the leadership of Taner and Fenris, many enemy troops who were originally chasing and killing the soldiers on the defense line discovered that something was wrong.

A group of incomprehensible enemies appeared.

In the front row are the knights in armor, whose sturdy iron armor is difficult to be pierced by ordinary weapons.

The knights' martial arts are the capital on which they survive, and naturally they are not comparable to ordinary soldiers, even if they dismount.

Then there are the well-trained soldiers in the rear.

Most of them wore leather armor or cotton armor, but they worked well together, and there were fully armored knights leading the way for them.

The combat capability is not bad either.

Not to mention that at the forefront are two super strong men, Tanr the Burning Blood, and Fenris the Burning Hand.

With the addition of this new force, the situation inside the defense line quickly changed.
