Chapter 717: Attack on the City Hindered



Surrounded by dense forests, after years of war, the once majestic Goblin King City has completely changed its image.

The royal city is smaller and shorter, and its overall shape is more like a fortress. After being baptized by war, the Goblin King has planted a dense jungle around the royal city.

These forest belts around the city, which had obviously been transformed by magic, formed the outermost line of defense of the Goblin King City.

The fire-resistant and magic-resistant ironwood trees towered into the sky, covering the royal city, and the dense forests hid countless goblin forces that were trying to stop the invasion.

The forest belt that is several miles deep is not just a small forest. It is also a battle line where the goblins have the upper hand.

If you want to attack the Goblin King's City, you must first pass through this forest area, but the goblins are lying in ambush in it, and external long-range attacks cannot accurately lock on them.

This is an artificially created forest area, and to have been transformed into such a forest area in just a few years, there is no need to think too much. The Goblin King must have used plant essences, or the Lord of the Courtyard must have assigned them the ability to herd trees.

"Boom~Boom~" The army advanced, and their iron hooves shook the ground.

The undead formed a staggered square array outside the forest belt.

The terror cavalry are gathering their strength, the corpse demons are on standby, the black-armored skeleton generals are holding shields and axes, countless skeleton warriors have quivers on their waists, and the skeleton mages floating in the air are guarding the phalanxes. Ghosts are wandering strangely, and the monsters are scattered and anxious.

Among the armies, Mu Hua gathered with the Black Crows, and a long warning howl was sounded in the depths of the dense forest. A large number of mecha warriors holding machine guns shuttled up and down above the forest, confirmed the invading enemy, and hid in the dense forest again.

"Heh, why do we look more like monsters to you?"

There was a hidden murderous intent in the direction of the Goblin King City. It seemed that there were quite a few goblins equipped with mecha armors. Most of them were in human form, and it was hard to tell whether they were monsters or humans.

Mu Hua looked at his own army which was almost entirely made up of undead and summoned beasts, and couldn't help but complain to the people around him.

"King, based on the information gathered by all parties in the Adventurer's Guild, it is basically confirmed that there is a legion of demon servants with a number of about two thousand people in the Goblin King's City." Clark said to Mu Hua as the breeze blew through the dense forest, causing the branches of the trees to rustle.

There will be more or less follower demons in any courtyard controlled by monsters. The number of follower demons is even greater in the courtyard where the confrontation between humans and monsters is fierce.

Among these followers of demons, there are those who were lured by the demons, and there are those who did not want to endure the torture and pledge allegiance after being captured by the demons. There are demons who try to integrate into the human race, and there is also always a shortage of humans who defect from demons to become demons.

In addition to wanting to send the Goblin King back to hell, Mu Hua also wanted to kill the servants who had been serving as advisors to the monsters in the Goblin Forest. Those guys are all physical entities, so he might as well stab them as much as possible if he gets a chance.

"What king? Don't follow Monday and the others in shouting nonsense. I'm still far from being a demon king."

"Have you all put on the magic crystals? Notice them that you can retreat when the crystals are consumed. I have worked so hard to train you up, so don't try to be heroic all the time." Mu Hua said to Clark.

Mu Hua's magic power has undergone a change, and the demons in the family have a new respectful name for Mu Hua. There may be some expectations in it, but it is more likely to be flattery. Clark is just following suit and shouting nonsense.

As for the divine crystals, Mu Hua got some divine crystals containing resurrection magic from Ukulu and distributed them to the Black Crow Hundred.

At this moment, there were seventy Black Crows in the army, scattered in leading various Undead phalanxes.

Another thirty Black Crow Knights were killed by monsters during the previous raid. . .

The resurrection consumed all the magic crystals that Mu Hua gave them. Without the life-saving gadget, Mu Hua could not take care of them in the chaos of battle, so he kicked them out of the combat sequence and sent them back to the Abyss Island to reflect and forge ahead.

After confirming that Clark had given the order, Mu Hua rode to the front of the battle. The alarm in the Goblin King City had subsided, and the forest ahead was eerily silent.

"The Curse of Permafrost."

Cold clouds rolled in, and frost and fog spread through the forest.

Even if they are facing goblins, with the support of sufficient weapons and combat preparations, this iron curtain forest covering the city is a desperate place for any invader who needs to fight with his life.

There are many hard-to-destruct magical plants in this forest, but Mu Hua was the first to destroy the forest.

The color of ice began to spread across the earth, and the lush, flexible trees were gradually stained with crystal clear, brittle ice chips.

In the shadowy and dark forest, the light of magic flickers frequently.

The goblins did not launch an attack on Mu Hua, who was recklessly freezing the earth. In the quiet, eerie and silent waiting, in front of Mu Hua, all he could see was the morning scenery of the snowy country.

"My lord, the Black Crows have perfected their affinity with the water element. Let them charge ahead for a while?" Seeing the frozen earth approaching, Clark pulled Athena, and Athena stepped forward to ask.

The permafrost is freezing cold and soaks into bones. The skeletons and undead trapped in it will also become stiff and brittle.

But apart from the engraving enhancement, Mu Hua's subordinates are not short of headless knights with affinity for water elements, and Athena actively helps Black Crow to fight, which shows that Mu Hua's forces can now also be counted for military merit.

These military merits are not only an evaluation option for them to be sent out to form an independent army, but they can also be exchanged for rewards from Mu Hua to increase their combat effectiveness.

Unlike Monday and his friends who were constantly in conflict with monsters at Snow Ridge Ranch, they also couldn't get the mission to clear out the Courtyard of the Undead like Dandelion.

Clark and Athena have always wanted to expand the number of Black Crow Knights, but Mu Hua is not planning to lure Black Crows to the Abyss Island in the short term. So, to expand the recruitment of Black Crow Knights, they can only hope that the Black Crows will be sent out to build cities and recruit soldiers to form an army.

And if he has no military achievements, Mu Hua probably won't allocate resources to Black Crow for a while since he has a Headless Knight with high IQ in his own army.

"Chong, do you think the magic crystals are cheap?" Mu Hua gave Athena a cold look.

“Let’s clear the way first.” As he spoke, a magic circle was engraved in the sky, and the Karma Purgatory spewed out a large amount of high-explosive fire meteorites, which scattered in disorder and smashed into the forest.

“Boom~Boom~” As the fire meteorite appeared, an interception attack immediately rose into the air in the forest.

Magic, magic cannon, Mu Hua raised his eyebrows slightly. This wave of hundreds of fire meteorites were actually all detonated in the sky before falling. The combat power of the Goblin King City was much higher than he expected.

Understanding Mu Hua's attack intention, Tina summoned her companion elf, and two meteor showers were brewing in the hands of her and her fire elemental elf.

Earth magic is quite restricted within the frozen range of permafrost. Tina herself lacks magic of other types that can produce high-explosive impacts on a large scale, and the other elemental elves can basically only play a supporting role.

Mu Hua once again smashed out the Karma Purgatory, and with fire falling from the sky, this time the goblins could no longer form a complete interception.

Amid the roaring explosions, large tracts of trees were blown into pieces of ice. The high-explosive magic seemed to be trying to clear a path through the forest that led directly to the Goblin King's City.

Clark and Athena did not take action. They knew a lot of magic, but for the time being they had not been able to obtain the crystallization of intelligence from Mu Hua. They mainly focused on close combat. Facing the frozen forest in front of them, it seemed that even if they threw a few explosive flames, it would be meaningless.

High-explosive fire magic destroyed the trees in the forest. The Skeleton Mage also joined the destruction sequence, while a large number of giant bats and flying beasts flew out from the direction of the Goblin King City.

"Boom! Boom! Boom~~~" Clusters of fire clouds exploded in the sky.

"Oh my god, a self-destructing bat, right?" Mu Hua was surprised.

No, it cannot be said to be a self-destructing bat. It should be said that the giant bat drove some flying beasts that were weak in body but carrying high-explosive bombs to attack with magic.

It was quite an alternative defense mode, Mu Hua sneered. If he played it this way, he didn't believe that the Goblin King could outlast him.

But soon after, the giant bats retreated, and magic bullets like anti-aircraft guns were swept out from the depths of the forest. The falling thunders on Mu Hua's side were triggered in advance by the barrage of magic bullets, and even some shattered magic arrays interfered with the casting of some skeleton mages.

"Tsk, cheating huh?" Mu Hua raised his eyebrows again.

The self-destruction of the flying beast before was like the Goblin King was conducting an experiment, but now, damn, they are obviously goblins, how many magical weapons are these guys equipped with?

Looking at the forest ahead, the destructive effect of a wave of magic is not very good.

"You, go and have fun!" Mu Hua said to the Abyss Demon squatting in front of the formation with some annoyance.

"Retreat! The entire army retreats!" The abyss demon was stunned, while Athena was already jumping up and down and shouting.

"Attack the defenses! Cast the barrier!" Clark followed closely behind, riding his horse and galloping along the military path to pass on the order.

"..." The evil demon of the abyss had a bit of a problem with his brain, and it took him a long time to come to his senses. An evil smile gradually appeared on his dull face.

"Bang!" The giant sword was thrown to the ground in disgust by the evil demon of the abyss.

"Ga gaga gaga~~" The evil monster in the abyss laughed and made a gesture of holding up the sky with both hands, like a giant ritual wizard.

"end..."

“Buzz~~Buzz~~”

"Puff~Puff~Puff~Puff~!" It seemed as if he was about to cast a spell, but a series of continuous rays of light, bullets, and arrows crackled and bit the body of the abyss demon.

The huge demon of the abyss trembled violently for a while as if he had the hiccups.

"Puff!" The evil demon from the abyss dissipated.

"..." With a twitch of his lips, Mu Hua opened the summoning circle again with some disgust.

"..." The evil demon from the abyss was summoned again.

"..." The Goblin King was observing Mu Hua's movements.

"Roar!" With strange roars, the evil demons in the abyss are once again brewing doomsday destruction.

"Puff~Puff~Puff..." Another round of precise sniping, the abyss demon was sent back to the summoning space with a rhythmic swaying.

"...You guys, are going to play it this way, right?" Mu Hua murmured as he looked at the Ice Forest, then looked at a top-quality arrow held by the wizard's hand, and opened the summoning circle again.

“...” The evil demon from the abyss.

"..." The Goblin side.

Mu Hua said: If you have the guts, just keep shooting. I will just treat it as borrowing arrows from a straw boat.
