Chapter 716 is about to arrive!
The deepest part of the river is only two meters deep, and this depth is only in the middle of a few meters. The rest of the river is only about one meter deep, so the orcs can easily wade across.
The most important thing is the forty flame lizards that led the orcs.
These monitor lizards are agile and can swim on the water like snakes. They can swim across the river and onto the mudflats in just a dozen seconds!
Boom boom boom!
In addition, behind these giant lizards there is a Komodo beast, and the orc priest sitting on it keeps beating the big drums on both sides of the beast's back.
As the drum beats rhythmically, the orc soldiers seemed to be energized, with a faint red glow on their bodies, and their strength and speed were slightly increased.
"Elves! Shoot!"
Faced with the orcs' all-out attack, the humans and elves did not dare to hesitate and began their attack the moment the orcs stepped into the river.
The first to attack were naturally the elven archers, who shot arrows at the orcs with astonishing power.
However, orcs have thick skin and flesh, and it often takes several arrows to kill one, unless you hit the eye sockets or other vital parts.
As more than 2,700 orcs came in densely packed and surging, the leading orcs soon rushed to the shore riding on the flame giant lizards!
"Everyone! Listen to my orders! Kill!"
With a roar, Gust led more than twenty golden knights and rushed to the front, rushing towards the Flame Lizard that had just landed. More than a thousand silver knights followed closely behind.
Roar! Roar! Roar!
When Gust, Hayden and others were about five or six meters away from the monitor lizards, the flame monitor lizard suddenly opened its jaws, a red light flashed from its mouth, and high-temperature fireballs sprayed out towards Gust and others.
"Be careful, shield up!"
Faced with the magical bombardment of the monster lizard, even the golden knights like Gust did not dare to be negligent.
They immediately raised their shields to resist.
Bang bang bang!
With bang sounds, fireballs hit their shields and exploded.
“Ah! Ah!”
Of course, there were also unlucky ones among the Silver Knights in the rear who failed to defend themselves. They were instantly hit on the armor by the giant lizard’s fireballs, and they screamed and fell to the ground.
"kill!"
Hearing the screams coming from behind him, Gust had no time to pay attention, but rushed directly to the front of the Flame Lizard and started fighting with the orc.
As more and more orcs came ashore, the fighting on the field became more intense.
However, the human race had too few people, and there were only twenty or so golden knights, so they were no match for the more than three hundred golden knights.
If it weren't for the elves in the rear constantly shooting arrows to rescue them, Gust and his men would have been defeated in less than a minute.
"Haha! You overestimate your own abilities! God of Killer, it will be very painful for you to see all this when you come back!"
Dosalon did not take to the field. Instead, he stood on the river bank with two guards as strong as the White Flag Knights, watching everything on the opposite side excitedly.
He knew that the elf Vorn was no weaker than him, and now that he had a broken arm, he was not prepared to take the risk of going into battle.
And Fawn also did not go on the battlefield at this time, but stood at the back of the battlefield and shot with a longbow, because he was also on guard against Dosalon.
Except for the elf Vorn, no one here can be a match for Dosalon and the two guards beside him.
"Caroline! Go away!"
Gust finally killed a golden knight and took the opportunity to glance at Caroline who was fighting with the orc soldiers not far away.
He himself could die here, but he didn't want his granddaughter to die here too.
"Grandfather, if we have to die, we'll die together. I won't leave!"
How could Caroline be willing to desert the battlefield and escape alone?
It was she who made the decision to come and fight to the death, and if they had to die, they would die together with Gust and the others.
"Aim the guns!"
"fire!"
At this moment, Ik and others had finished reloading their artillery. He hurriedly ordered several soldiers to point their guns at several orc soldiers who were flanking Gust and others.
Then, with his order, the artillery exploded again.
Boom boom boom!
Puff puff puff!
In an instant, more than ten orcs fell.
"What on earth is that thing? It's so strange. Send a hundred people to destroy that strange thing first!"
The explosion of the artillery finally diverted the attention of the excited Dosalon, and he immediately gave an order to the guards beside him.
"Yes, sir!"
…
"As long as you walk through this forest, you will see the address for building Stormwind City! When I arrived, Caroline and the others were already preparing the materials, so they should have started construction by now!"
Just as Caroline and others were fighting a bloody battle with the orcs, three miles away from them, a team of more than a thousand people was slowly advancing towards the sacred forest.
This was the elven delegation that had just returned from the Holy Continent after more than a month's journey.
At this time, neither Gervis nor Alice continued to sit in the carriage.
Gervis was now riding his skeleton horse Nightmare, while Alice was riding Alder's colorful deer.
Perhaps because of the great victory this time, Alice was in a very good mood when she was about to reach the sacred forest and was introducing herself to Gervis.
"Yeah! And it's all thanks to you and Caroline. Thank you, Alice!"
Gervis was looking forward to seeing the people he was familiar with, especially Carlo.
After hearing Alice's words, he immediately thanked his cheap wife.
When he was not around, Alice and Caroline were still so attentive to help him complete these things. How could Gervis not be grateful?
"You should thank Caroline more. She is the one who usually arranges things for the human race!"
Maybe it was telepathy, but Alice knew that Gervis was excited about meeting Caroline. She remembered that Gervis had an unclear relationship with her cousin, and she immediately responded to Gervis in a bad mood.
“…”
Boom... Boom... Boom...
After hearing Alice's words, when Gervis was speechless, he suddenly heard a loud explosion coming from the front.
"What's going on? It sounds like an explosion! Could it be that Ike and his men have learned how to use gunpowder to build a city?"
When Gervis heard the bang, he naturally knew that it was caused by an explosion.
The only thing that could produce such an explosion was gunpowder. Gervis wondered if Ik and the others had already figured out how to use gunpowder to blow up mountains and rocks.
At that moment, Gervis turned his puzzled eyes to Alice. If such a thing happened, she should also understand something about it.
"This should be the sound from your little cannon, right?"
Alice saw Gervis looking at her and didn't know his doubts, so she replied immediately!
"not good!"
But when he saw Alice's confused expression and doubtful words, Gervis's face suddenly changed and he thought to himself that something was wrong.
Since Alice didn't know how to use gunpowder to blow up rocks, it meant that Ike and the others didn't have the brains to do so.
Therefore, the only possibility is that a battle has taken place ahead, and Ike and others have already used artillery!
"Everyone, follow me! Get ready for battle! Alice, you stay here and keep an eye on these goblins!"
Gervis immediately gave a loud order, but before he could finish his words, the nightmare that was in tune with his thoughts suddenly accelerated and rushed forward.
When Nadine and others saw this, they immediately followed Gervis's team. In an instant, the team of more than 500 people followed Gervis and rushed forward.
…
"Caroline, Gust, retreat into the forest quickly, it will be too late if you don't retreat now!"
Seeing that more than a hundred human soldiers had fallen, Vaughn immediately shouted to Caroline, Gust and others to warn them.
He knew that the river bank could no longer be defended. Even two of the cannons over there had been destroyed by the orcs, and many orcs had already rushed to the front of the elves. If they didn't leave now, they would all die on the river bank.
If the elves retreat into the forest at this time, they can use the complex terrain to fight with the orcs. If they encounter close combat with the orcs in this open area, the elves are not much better than humans.
"Haha! Fuen, can you still escape? You will all die today! This is the fate of the God of Death and your elves for offending me!"
Dosalon also heard the words of the elf Vorn and immediately laughed loudly. At this time, the more than a thousand human beings had been completely surrounded and it was impossible for them to escape.
"Everyone listen up! Don't let a single human escape! Hahaha!"
Dosalon continued to speak arrogantly.
"Elder Fuen, you retreat into the forest first. We can't retreat!"
Gust Hayden and the others were now covered in blood, with orcs everywhere, and they could not retreat at all.
And now with them blocking the orcs' Flame Lizards, the Rose Knights and Caroline can still hold on for a while.
If they retreat, Caroline and the others will definitely not be able to escape.
"kill!"
After hearing what Gust said, the elf Vorn knew that it was impossible to retreat any further. Remembering the queen's instructions, he gritted his teeth, stopped shooting arrows, and drew out his sword and rushed forward.
At this moment, he didn't care whether Dosaron would come on the field or not. If he didn't go to support Gust and others, they would die!
"You two go deal with that old guy!"
When Dosalon saw Vorn personally taking the field, he was not in a hurry and casually gave orders to the two guards beside him who had the strength of the White Flag Knights!
"Yes, sir!"
When the two heard it, they immediately responded, drew their weapons, and walked towards the river.
