Chapter 351, Terrifying Battering Ram
This meaningless charge lasted from morning to night, and after leaving behind a large number of corpses, the limping flag retreated with his rat warriors. into the trench behind him.
After the brutal battle, no one summoned him, and he could only huddle alone on the edge of the battlefield, licking his wounds with the despicable guys who gathered around him.
In the dark night, the huge fortress that was being spliced was still so clearly visible. Sparks burst out in the dark night. A large number of Big Claw priests were busy pouring and splicing work in the dark.
Soon after, a stooped rat man came to Qi.
"Great flag, great flag, generous flag. The corpses on the battlefield have been collected. Should we still sell them to that rat caravan?"
He asked the flag.
Only this time, Qi fell into thinking.
After a long time, Qi uttered a word in silence.
“No need!”
Not long after, an inconspicuous sacrificial ceremony took place on the edge of the battlefield.
It is difficult to determine whether the rough patterns of the gods' altars are correct. There are no sacred pillars or complicated rituals.
A simple altar, a pile of corpses, and a limping guy holding a flag high.
I don’t know what kind of mentality Qi had when he did this, but he undoubtedly did the right thing.
In this charge, for him and the rat men under his command, the losses were too great, and the gains were too little.
No glory, no achievements, no blood mushrooms, no promotion, nothing.
A vague unspeakable restlessness has begun to brew, and it will not explode so soon, but sooner or later Qi will have to face such restlessness.
He is not the unruly commander, but a liar. He will inevitably have to face the victims who were deceived by him.
But these ended with this sacrifice.
The restlessness calmed down in this simple sacrifice.
These despicable guys are still tightly united around Qi, and now the only people Qi can rely on are these despicable rat guys.
It’s dawn.
As the not-so-hot morning light pierced the darkness, a discordant sound appeared on the battlefield. It was the sound of metal colliding and rubbing against each other, and the sound of many gears adapting to each other in the bite. .
This tall fortress has finally been assembled.
Like a giant walking.
Well, this description is not particularly appropriate, but it is true. This tall metal fortress started to move.
Amid the harsh sound, they began to move on the battlefield.
It is really high, almost as high as the fortress that has hindered the rat people for a long time.
This is an extremely shocking scene, and it is also the scene that the private army leader and the war priest are waiting for.
The rat priests and war priests began to shout for the army while running. The rat warriors did not react so quickly. They were also afraid of such a moving fortress on the battlefield. .
Until a clear and crisp bell echoed on the battlefield.
The temple guards in the twin fortresses rang the huge skeleton bell hanging between the two fortresses.
The clear and crisp sound of the bell is enough to calm most of the uneasiness and fear.
Whether it is the temple guards or the rat priests, they have invested too many chips in this holy war. This fortress built by heretics can no longer survive.
The tall fortress slowly advanced in a slow but determined manner, slowly crashing into the solid fortress not far away that was already filled with rat-man blood.
Such a huge movement could not go unnoticed. The commander of the noble coalition, Duke Walton Byrd, stood on the city wall.
The soldiers on the city wall were in a mess, and the knights and mages were inevitably frightened. They gradually calmed down when the Grand Duke appeared on the battlefield.
To be fair, the Grand Duke is not that majestic. He has a thin figure and an ordinary appearance. Even when he goes to the battlefield, he needs the extremely gorgeous armor on his body to boost his momentum.
But he is like this, just standing there can make people convincing and make people feel at ease.
He seemed dissatisfied with the chaos on the city wall and yelled at an impatient magic knight.
“Don’t forget the honor of your ancestors!”
The scolded magic knight lowered his head in shame.
Soon, the defense line returned to what it should have been.
But this ordinary Grand Duke did not leave the city wall anymore, and set his sights on the huge fortress in the distance that could make a rumbling sound just by moving.
The situation is obviously not that optimistic.
But no matter what, he will not retreat.
Not only for the glory of our ancestors, but also for this country.
This is really a very unusual thing. Who would have thought that just when the great nobles and the royal family were fighting for power, it was the Grand Duke from the barren land who made the decision. He stood in front of the rat people who were about to attack again.
All kinds of chaotic sounds appeared in the ears, and the chaos cannon in the fortress had entered a state of full expedition.
The chaotic elemental flow continued to erupt in the buffer zone between the rat-occupied area and the human fortress, erasing patches of rat-men from the land.
It’s just that there is nothing we can do about the Ratman Mobile Fortress that is slowly approaching the fortress.
The metal shell is so thick that even the turbulent flow of elements cannot shake it.
The ratmen began to climb the city wall.
Amidst the chirping sounds, the huge mobile fortress has not yet arrived, but the fierce battle has begun first.
As a prelude, as an opening.
A series of underground tunnels opened inside the fortress, but what greeted them was the chaotic shells fired inside. In the fleeting gray brilliance, those rat trolls with thick skin and tenacious vitality were seen. Not a single roar was left behind, it just disappeared, along with them disappeared the other rat men marching in the underground tunnels and the engineering team of the Big Claw Priests who had not had time to evacuate.
Well, maybe it's better not to travel underground when the enemy is prepared.
But the problem is not big, just a small episode.
The tall fortress has arrived. In the slow advancement, it has finally arrived!
In the harsh sound, there is almost no pause, impact, impact without hesitation!
The terrifying concussion sound ended, and all the surviving guys in this area looked particularly confused, with scarlet blood slowly flowing out of their eyes, ears, and noses.
The archduke standing on the city wall got up as soon as the shock subsided. Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, but he ignored it.
He drew the long sword from his waist towards the rat man in front of him.
The show is about to begin.
