Chapter 378
A team of crossbowmen composed of wolf-like people ran to the edge of the city wall. They were well-trained by the First Army.
"Wolf-like people, where did you find the mercenaries?"
The corner of the mouth of the Fiery Horse Baron Aniri twitched. Why is the army led by Night so complicated?
"Don't underestimate them. They are sharpshooters per person."
Field shouted: "Blast those crawling corpses!"
The wolf-like archers moved in unison, as if they were working on an assembly line. They quickly drew their bows and arrows, and used arrows made of holy feathers and stained with purification potions to attack the corpses.
The arrows, like locusts, quickly crossed the sky and accurately hit the crawling corpses. The power of the holy light, as soon as it touched the corpses, burst into brilliant flames, even more brilliant than the lighting magic of the surrounding magicians.
Most of the crawling corpses didn't even touch the top of the wall, and turned into balls of light and fell down. Only a few scattered corpses climbed up the wall despite their injuries, struggled to push away the soldiers' spears, and fought bloody battles with the soldiers who rushed over.
"These wolf-subs are good, no wonder they can persist for so many years under the attack of the empire."
Annieri curled his lips, drew the long sword from his waist, and took a shield: "I can deal with the corpses rushing up by myself."
"Oh? You can help." Field was very surprised.
"I'm not fighting for you, I'm just fighting for the empire."
Annieri burst into fighting spirit and rushed towards the remaining corpses. As the crawling corpses were besieged and eliminated, the rebel's first corpse army was almost completely wiped out.
"Bang!"
A huge crashing sound was heard, and a battering ram arrived at the fortress gate. The soldiers in the battering ram pushed the siege hammer inside together, hammering hard on the steel gate of the fortress, making a dull sound like thunder.
Before they could hammer again, the firepower of the magic tower and the catapult swept away the enemies at the city gate.
Groups of rebels fell under the firepower of the city defense equipment.
"Level 3 Divine Skill, Blood Shadow Spiral!"
Veronica dodged the crossbow like a ghost and jumped onto the pile of corpses at the city gate. With a cold curse, she gathered her divine power again, and the spiral lance in her hand began to rotate at high speed, with blood attached to it, and the strong smell of blood was nauseating.
"Boom!" The powerful divine skill fell on the city gate.
The noise caused was much greater than that of the siege hammer. The stone powder rustled off the city wall, and the steel city gate was greatly deformed.
"Hoo, hoo, hoo~"
After a short period of time, Veronica, who had exploded twice, stopped pretending and quickly retreated.
The second and third corpse legions of the rebels, as well as the human army, carried a large number of ladders, surrounded the siege tower, arrived at the gate of the fortress, and began to attack the city.
The city wall immediately shot a large number of arrows, and the climbing soldiers and corpses fell down like rain.
The long-range corpses and human archers fired wildly at the city wall, and screams were heard from the city wall immediately, and the firepower decreased. Although the city defense firepower was taking the lives of the rebels every minute and every second, the number of rebels was so terrifying that they could not be killed at all.
The soldiers crowded at the city gate cleared the rubble of the corpses around them, pushed the second battering ram again, and began to bombard the city gate.
"Very good, the situation has been decided."
"As expected of Baron Tulip, the empire's leading genius."
Several high-ranking members of the Shadow World Sect stood on a high platform and pointed and talked. Sir Dame threw his robe, sat down proudly, and nodded slightly to everyone: "Ladies and gentlemen, after you take the fortress, you can leave Rick Province as soon as possible."
"The other adults have achieved considerable results." A lady with a monocle raised her glass elegantly, "I believe that the leader will soon be able to recover his full body."
"You made too much noise, and this time you sacrificed half of the province. I guess Her Majesty the Queen can't stand you anymore."
Damei laughed: "When you leave, don't forget to calculate my reward. After all, I'm betting on the past. "Miss Aurora, the same goes for the church, don't forget to settle the payment."
"Of course, the Holy Light will protect you." A woman in a white robe nodded, praying with her hands, "We love all the lost lambs equally."
"I'm curious, if the leader leaves the empire, where can he go? Go south to Franvia, or go west to Dragon Tower?" Dame asked, "It's impossible to go east. I heard that the pagans have vassalized most of the small countries along the way and are still continuing their westward expedition."
"Neither, this is not something you deacons can know, you just need to continue to lurk in the Griffin Empire."
The priest who commanded Scuina before stroked his beard with a smile: "When the leader comes back, she will become the undisputed queen of the Griffin Empire and end the ignorant rule of the Golden Griffin family.Of course, at that time, the coming of the true God was not far away."
"I can't wait any longer. I think about it day and night and pray for that day." Dame cut a piece of steak with a knife, "Try it, steak from the Sky Province. Hey, do you think the title of Grand Duke of Tulip is very suitable for me?"
Before the priest could answer, bursts of heart-wrenching screams came from the direction of the front line.
"Huh?"
Looking in the direction of the sound.
The boiling manure poured down from the city wall like a waterfall, and the screaming soldiers fell from the ladders and siege towers.
The stench alone almost suffocated people. Veronica watched the manure seep through the gap of the battering ram and poured into the neck of a soldier. The soldier covered his neck and screamed heart-wrenchingly: "Kill me, kill me. "
After a short while, the soldier fainted on the ground, his neck was eroded.
Many soldiers were scalded to death, and those who were not scalded to death, as long as they were slightly stained, their skin began to ulcerate on a large area. In this era, such a serious infection is almost certain to die.
As for magic treatment?
The magician master doesn't care about the life and death of the soldiers. They would rather spend some effort to save the kitten. Besides, with so many people infected, there are not enough magicians.
The screams of the soldiers frightened the surrounding soldiers and they dared not move forward.
"Keep attacking!" Veronica held her breath and said hatefully, "How did they think of such a disgusting method."
Generally, there would only be boiling oil in the defense of the city. This was the first time she saw boiling sewage.
Field smiled: "Use corrupted arrows, crossbowmen, and shoot at the opponent's archers!"
The crossbow troops led by Night, holding the cool-looking crossbows, aimed at the opponent's archers and started firing in volleys.
"What tricks are you going to use this time? "
Just as Veronica began to have doubts, she saw a torrential rain of arrows pouring down continuously.
The crossbowmen on her side fell like wheat being cut. The crossbow had no armor-piercing ability, but it was aimed at the lightly armored crossbowmen from above, which was almost a massacre.
