Chapter 727 728. Night battle
Overnight, a stone wall appeared at the narrow exit of Sun Island Bay.
The ice wall continued to melt under the erosion of the sea water, and the stone wall behind the ice wall was revealed bit by bit. The griffin cavalry fought hard all night in the sky. At this time, they flew to various arrow tower posts to rest, and there was only a large group of headhunters. The soldiers were still working hard carrying the hollow bricks and continuing to build the stone wall.
After dawn, the tide gradually recedes, and the part of the stone wall exposed to the sea looks very spectacular.
However, the huge stones dropped by the Griffin Cavalry can only be the cornerstones of the stone wall. To build a wall, the Headhunter prisoners of war need to use hollow bricks to build a real city wall on the sea.
These headhunter prisoners of war have rich experience in building walls. They first leveled the stone foundation, then built the hollow bricks, and used chains to string all the hollow bricks together. They connected them with a large number of chains, even without cement mortar. With water, this wall can also become very strong.
Since the arrow tower was built on the top of the mountain, the required building materials could only be obtained locally.
At the beginning, the headhunter prisoners of war insisted on using the stones dug from the mountain cliffs to build the arrow tower. Later, Roy planned to connect a city wall between the arrow towers. From that time, the mined There is not enough stone.
In order to build the city wall smoothly, Captain Tiprado obtained the formula of a building material from Miss Tiffany. This building material is the material used by the Janna to build the underwater city.
The main material is a kind of gelatin boiled with a large amount of kelp. This gelatin is mixed into sand and gravel, and then pressed into the shape of a hollow brick using a mold. After drying, it becomes a very strong hollow brick. This kind of hollow brick appears in the sea. A matcha color.
Headhunter prisoners of war strung these hollow bricks together with chains. Hundreds or thousands of pieces were connected together. This kind of city wall was built very quickly. In the future, the city wall would be covered with some corals, shells and seaweed. When all the gaps disappeared, those chains would be in time. Even if it is completely corroded by the sea water, the entire city wall will not collapse.
In order to build the city wall at the bay outlet in a very short time, some of the hollow bricks at the back were even removed from the city wall on the top of the mountain.
After a day and night of fighting, a city wall appeared at the exit of Sun Island Bay. This stone wall was more than 200 meters long and was built by more than 4,000 mixed-blood elves and 5,000 plateau headhunter prisoners of war.
The stone base of the city wall was piled up by 2,500 griffons from large rocks found in nearby mountains. On top of the stone base was a wall built with hollow bricks.
The part of the city wall exposed to the sea is only six or seven meters high, but this city wall is more than ten meters wide, completely isolating Sun Island Bay from the western sea.
At dusk, the Dark Faceless Army surged up again, and they could not find the entrance to Sun Island Bay...
They tried to emerge from the sea water and climb up the newly built city wall, but the tentacles kept coming out of the sea water and spreading upward along the gaps in the wall, and then huge corpses were exposed from the sea.
At this time, the gryphon cavalry who were constantly wandering in the sky immediately lowered their flying altitude and drew short flying spears from behind.
As the griffins retracted their wings and dived downward, these griffin cavalry dropped short flying spears towards the sea...
The tips of these short flying spears were equipped with a row of sharp barbs. With a "pop" sound, the short flying spears pierced the faceless warriors who were trying to climb the wall.
The faceless warriors were stabbed by the short flying spears, and their bodies immediately twisted violently. The tentacles on their bodies kept twisting, and some tentacles even wrapped around the short flying spears and pulled the short flying spears out of their bodies.
Other faceless warriors sprayed ink into the sky. The ink could reach a height of thirty meters, but it could not even touch the feathers of the griffins.
……
At the exit of Sun Island Bay, they are attacked by the Faceless Legion every day.
All night last night, the Siren Zezena summoned all the Siren Singers on Sun Island and formed an ice wall at the exit of the bay, allowing Roy to command the mixed-blood elf guards, griffin cavalry and headhunter prisoners of war on the ice. After the wall another stone wall was built.
When the Faceless Legion approached Sun Island Bay again at dusk the next day, they found that there was an inexplicable stone wall here.
The faceless warriors climbed up the stone wall and were immediately attacked by gryphon cavalry in the sky...
At the same time, the city walls were filled with mixed-blood elven guards. They held forest bows and kept throwing arrows exuding sacred aura at the faceless warriors. These mixed-blood elven guards were followed by more than a dozen priests.
It was these priests who released beams of sacred light on the city wall, directly lighting up the city wall at night. At the same time, they also blessed the arrows guarded by the mixed-blood elves with the power of holy light.
After these feather arrows were thrown onto the Faceless Warriors, they caused a strong corrosive effect on the Faceless Warriors...
Suddenly, the first batch of faceless warriors who rushed to the city wall returned to the sea in embarrassment, leaving half of their bodies behind.
Roy was also guarding the city wall at this time. He was wearing Griswold's magic pattern structure, holding a flail and the Book of Judgment. He was surrounded by a strong sacred aura, and the shadow of a tree of holy light was often there. Appearing behind him...
There is always a sacred light pillar in front of Roy, which is like a holy light beacon in the dark night, giving all the mixed-blood elven guards guarding the city wall a very solid feeling. As long as Roy stands on the city wall, the mixed-blood elves The guards possess endless strength, and even if they look at the tentacles of countless faceless warriors pouring out of the deep sea, they will not take a step back.
After the Dark Faceless Warrior dies, his body will turn into a viscous liquid like black oil and stain the stone wall.
These black viscous liquids quickly melted under the holy light, and were then carried back to the sea by the waves.
Several faceless warriors withstood the corrosion of the sacred beam of light and climbed up from under the stone wall with short flying spears on their backs. Roy rushed forward first, holding a flail in his hand and chanting prayers, and then Swing the flail...
A small hammer of holy light was thrown by Roy, and the hammer filled with the strong aura of holy light hit the dark faceless man directly. A hole the size of a coconut shell immediately appeared in the chest of the unlucky dark faceless man.
And its body collapsed suddenly at this time.
Roy stepped on the hollow brick next to the city wall with one foot. The mixed-blood elf guards following him fired arrows one after another. The half-blood elf archers were filled with spearmen.
Other faceless warriors were also stabbed by spears and fell into the sea one after another.
At this time, a tentacle suddenly stretched out from the crack in the stone and secretly wrapped around Roy's leg. Roy felt that he was being pulled by a huge force and lost his balance. He was about to be secretly stretched out by the Faceless Warriors. The tentacle that came out was pulled into the sea. At this moment, Leah once again jumped out of the shadows like a night saber. She held two daggers in her hands and cut off the tentacle as fast as lightning!
At the same time, another black shadow jumped out, and its strong body jumped directly on the back of the faceless warrior. It was a real night saber. It opened its bloody mouth and directly killed the faceless warrior. Biting its head, it shook its head violently, tearing off all the shorter tentacles on the faceless warrior's head.
Just when several thick tentacles emerged and tried to entangle it, the night saber jumped up and disappeared into the night. Those tentacles did not even touch the night saber's fur.
The tentacles wrapped around his legs stood limply on the thick leather greaves. Roy found that there were dense rows of suckers on the tentacles. There were even needle-like stingers in the round holes in the middle of the suckers. It was a pity that these tiny The poisonous sting cannot penetrate Roy's magic pattern structure, so the poisonous sting has no effect on Roy.
Roy's magic pattern structure can increase his power of holy light, and it has a great effect on his own physique, strength, and magic resistance.
He found that this time he threw five Holy Light Hammers in succession without the usual strong dizziness...
Throughout the night, Roy didn't know how many waves of dark faceless warriors he had repelled on the city wall. The priests behind them will go to the back to rest when they are tired, and new priests will be added immediately...
The gryphon cavalry wandering in the night sky also took turns to go into battle.
When the first light appeared on the horizon, the dark Faceless Warriors retreated into the sea, leaving only the corpses of some Faceless Warriors on the city wall.
The mixed-blood elven guards who have been fighting in the Bay of Sun Island can finally sit on the city wall and rest.
Roy sat for a short while before standing up from the wall. He needed to walk around the city wall to see the details of other parts of the city wall.
After a night of fighting, the more than 200-meter-long city wall unexpectedly collapsed in three places. Roy immediately asked the Headhunter prisoners who had slept all night to wake them up to work. All day today, they had to carry out repairs on the city wall. Reinforcement work.
The mixed-blood elf guards who had been fighting fiercely all night also needed a good rest.
Roy walked back and forth on the city wall. Although dozens of mixed-blood elf guards died in this battle, the other mixed-blood elf guards were still in a stable mood. When they saw Roy coming, they all stood up and saluted Roy.
At this time, a group of mixed-blood elf guards climbed onto the city wall and switched defenses with the already exhausted mixed-blood elf guards on the city wall.
Another officer ran up to Roy and said to Roy:
"Boss Roy, you have been working hard all night. Go to the camp behind and take a rest."
……
The camp of the half-blood elf guards was set up in the forest on the north slope of the mountain. These tents had already been set up, and there were half-blood elves distributing food and hammocks in the forest clearing.
Roy also queued up to receive breadfruit and a cup of fruit tea from his two brothers, and sat under the tree to eat it alone.
At this time, the sun has risen, the sea has also lit up, and the faceless warriors have disappeared...
Some half-blood elven guards held long poles and searched for the black magic core in the sticky black oil, which was the most valuable thing on the faceless warriors.
The mixed-blood elven guards who fought hard all night were purified of the dark energy on their bodies by the priests. Then they hung up hammocks in the woods, and fell asleep while lying on the hammocks.
Suddenly there was a sound of snoring in the camp, and all the elves passing by the camp would invariably slow down their steps.
Roy was sitting under a tree at the edge of the camp, and was about to lie down in the hammock for a while when he saw the exhausted Sabrina leading a snow-white gryphon up the slope. She obviously saw Roy. , walking towards him.
She held the helmet in her hand, her hair was wet, as if she had just taken a shower.
The arrow pots and short flying spear racks behind him were all empty, and it seemed that they must have participated in the fierce battle last night.
Sabrina came to Roy, patted the gryphon on the head, and let it rest in a dry place. Then she hung a hammock on two trees nearby and said to Roy, "You don't mind if I Let’s set up a hammock here?”
"Would you like some help?"
Roy put down the teacup in his hand and walked over to help Sabrina tighten the ropes of the hammock.
Sabrina pursed her lips, with a hint of joy on her bright face. Her eyes were as clear and blue as the sea. She inherited the beautiful face of the Silver Moon Elf. The Wood Elf has a tall figure, which makes her look very special among the elves. of difference.
Sabrina did not take off the magic armor on her body, but only took off the shoulder armor and hung it together with the helmet at the head of the hammock.
A pair of silver combat boots was placed on the other side, with his hands pressed on both sides of the hammock, and his body gently, like a flexible carp, he lay down tightly in the hammock.
She turned slightly sideways and looked at Roy.
Roy was standing in front of a hammock between two other trees. The two hammocks were not far apart. The terrain here was just right and the view was wide. Even lying on the hammock, you could see the sea in the distance.
Roy was still hesitating whether to lie down in the hammock for a while, then he heard Sabrina say to him:
"Roy, do you think we can defeat the Dark Faceless Army? If we lose, will we give up the Partington plane?"
"The Dark Faceless Legion has never been a threat to us. What I worry about is that once the Dark Faceless Legion gains a foothold in the Partington plane, it will immediately pull other Dark Legions over. That would be the most troublesome." Roy took off his boots, hung them on a branch, and climbed into the hammock.
"This time I went to the Queen Egwene Islands to participate in the war and captured a lot of Gray Dwarf prisoners of war. I heard that their hometown was completely invaded by the Dark Legion, so they were forced to seize the islands from us. There are so many islands in the Endless Sea, but they just want to It’s a bit confusing to occupy the Queen Egwene Islands.”
Roy turned over and lay on the hammock and said speechlessly.
"This time you are visiting the Elf Continent, have you gone to see Moira?"
"No, I'm going back to Castletown in a few days. Do you want to go back with me?" Roy asked casually.
“The situation here at Sun Island Bay is so bad, so let’s forget it.”
Sabrina twisted her body, reached out to put the helmet on her face, and stopped talking.
Not far away on the sea, two medium-sized sailing ships were docked at the simple dock, and a group of mixed-blood elf guards were unloading a large amount of supplies from the ships.
Even among the mixed-blood elves living in the Bay of Sun Island, not all elves support Roy's fight against the Faceless Legion. Some middle-level officers of the regiment, including Captain Tiprado, believe that the Dark Faceless Legion is not a threat. The elf town on the north coast of Sun Island Bay. They want to fight the sea monster, so let’s fight. It’s best to end up hurting both sides...
Therefore, when Captain Tiprado led the Griffin Cavalry Regiment to participate in the night battle a few days ago, he always failed to do his job. This was also the reason why Siren Zezena was furious.
Now Roy personally came to the battlefield of Sun Island Bay and fought with the Dark Faceless Army all night long. No matter how angry the Kraken Zeena was, it should be calmed down.
