Calamity Dragon, Starting with the Cultivation of Knight Families

Chapter 144 The Troll City Has Been Captured, and Reinforcements Have Arrived?

The earth trembled, and monsters roared!
Fifteen high-level magical beasts moved in unison.

There are six flying magical beasts and nine walking beasts.

They broke away from the camp where the monsters were staying and launched the first attack.

Meanwhile, the other mid-level and low-level magical beasts are still waiting, waiting for the moment when the high-level magical beasts break through the city's barrier!
"Roar!!!"

"Eer~~~"

A high-ranking terrestrial magical beast stepped out, causing the earth to crack, like a landslide and a tsunami!
Meanwhile, the high-level flying magical beasts created terrifying sonic booms in the sky.

The moment the high-level magical beasts launched their attack, from the top of the farm city walls, one could already see magic crystal cannons continuously firing out from the ripples of the barrier.

These magic crystal cannons are extremely powerful!

Each strike was no weaker than a normal strike from a seventh-tier magical beast.

However, this power comes at a price; the charging time and the consumption of magic crystals mean that the troll city defenses cannot be continuously bombarded.

The sound of artillery fire filled the air!
A sea of ​​fire poured down from the sky!

That was an attack launched by an eighth-tier fire-attribute giant bird.

Flames covered the magical barrier above the troll city, and in an instant, for the trolls and human slaves below the barrier, the entire city seemed to be surrounded by flames.

The magical barrier was constantly rippling with terrifying waves.

At the same time, two eighth-tier earth-metal type magical beasts among the land-dwelling magical beasts took the lead and crashed into the magic barrier despite the bombardment of the magic crystal cannon.

"boom!!!"

The enormous explosion resounded throughout the entire farm city, but fortunately, the light patterns emanating from the magic barrier successfully blocked the attack of the two eighth-tier magical beasts. However, the corresponding price was that the two high-level trolls, wielding condensed magic crystals, suffered considerable impact.

When the magic barrier was struck, it was like an elastic net. When the two trolls reinforced the magic barrier at the point of impact, they not only consumed magic crystals, but were also directly blasted away by the terrifying force. They landed in the city like two cannonballs, causing a huge roar!

Inside the mage tower supporting the magical barrier, troll soldiers were busily and rapidly throwing magic crystals into the tower's furnace.

Looking at this scene.

The eight high-ranking trolls in the city all wore expressions of despair!

"What a joke!!!"

"Where did these monsters come from?"

"So many high-level monsters! They couldn't have spread from the high-level or even nightmare-level dungeons that have been revived, could they?"

A councilor from Troll City was deathly pale.

"This is absolutely not something a human professional could have caused, not even a Saint-level one! Even if a dungeon is reviving, the monsters in the dungeon would never obey human commands!"

"Therefore, gentlemen, I suspect that the most unacceptable and incomprehensible thing may have happened!"

"At least one indigenous deity must have been resurrected!!!"

Inside the farm city, the scribe on the troll city lord's side was even more outspoken.

His tone was filled with despair and disbelief!
"It was too sudden! Everything happened without warning! Even the great troll gods didn't issue any divine decrees!"

"Farm City absolutely cannot be defended!!!"

"These are fifteen high-level demonic creatures! And there are a large number of mid- to low-level demonic creatures lurking in the surrounding area, eyeing them covetously!"

"Lord City Lord!!! Make a decision! We still have a chance to break through!"

“If we don’t break through, we will surely perish here along with all our clansmen in the city.”

"This is by no means an attempt to demoralize the troops, but rather, the situation is currently unclear. The enemy has deployed so many high-level demons in their first attack, so it's hard to say that there might be an even more powerful force at play!"

"Lord City Lord, please don't forget the tragedy that befell Copper Hammer City!"

At this moment, the troll who had just been knocked away returned to the city wall, his face extremely ugly, and his voice was even trembling!
Looking at the monsters outside the city, he earnestly tried to persuade the troll city lord.

As for the troll city lord at this time?
He stared at several high-level magical beasts, each a hundred meters long, outside the city, his expression extremely solemn.

However, he did not fall into despair like the other trolls!
"Please be patient, everyone. Pay attention to the monsters' attack areas. We must not let them break through the various nodes of the barrier right now."

The troll city lord reassured the trolls who were spreading out to defend the area, and continued:

"The situation may not be as bad as you all imagine."

"Although our farm city's overall military equipment is not good, its defense is definitely sufficient."

"Thirty magic crystal cannons, each shot will consume a lot of the magic power of these monsters. As long as we continue and outlast them, these monsters will definitely not be able to break through our defenses."

"In addition, although the situation in Copper Hammer City was terrible, it happened when Copper Hammer City was caught off guard."

"Now that the magic barrier is open, the magic barrier designed by our demigod prince is definitely not something these monsters can break through at will."

"Moreover, our city defenses have a considerable amount of magic crystals in reserve. Even a Saint-level expert might not be able to break through in a short time!"

As the troll city lord spoke these words, he was actually somewhat uneasy inside.

On the other hand, this troll city lord still had the will to defend the city. After all, whether he could defend it or not was another matter entirely!

Furthermore, the current situation is truly unbelievable.

Is this the resurgence of the gods? Or has some new situation emerged that even the trolls are unaware of?
Deep down, this troll city lord also wanted to understand the situation.

Even if we lose the city, it will be a great achievement if we can find out even the smallest detail.

In addition, the troll lord concealed a fact from the other trolls.

That is, when he reported the information about Bronzehammer City to the Southern Troll Governor, the governor had already sent people to the scene immediately!
After all, the destruction of Copperhammer City was no small matter.

Even if the governor is carrying out an important operation, he will definitely pay attention to it.

The troll city lord had remained silent because he was unsure of the situation and didn't know who the troll governor would send.

In the current situation, the troll lords can only pray that their governors along the southern coast will send some powerful trolls.

The battle continues.

The fifteen high-level magical beasts were now displaying their unique abilities!

But each time the city's barrier seemed about to be breached, it always fell just short, which really bothered these high-level magical beasts.

Compared to the Auckland continent, putting aside everything else, the trolls' city combat power far surpasses that of major cities like the Duke's Palace.

This also demonstrates that the troll race, capable of conquering an entire world, is indeed a force to be reckoned with.

Not to mention, each of its cities has several high-ranking trolls inside.

This strength far surpasses that of the Auckland continent.

Of course, if the gods of the Auckland continent were still alive, or even the gods of the Cartel continent were still alive, the number of powerful beings in the mortal world would definitely be enormous.

Unfortunately, neither the continent of Auckland nor the continent of Cartel is currently protected by any deity.

"It seems that last time, I really did benefit from the surprise attack."

"The magical barrier created by this troll is probably comparable in strength to the royal city of some kingdoms, isn't it?"

"The early industrial revolution combined with the mysterious power of magic indeed opens up an extremely wide range of possibilities."

Lin Ke is hidden high in the sky.

He looked down at the battlefield, where many seventh-tier magical beasts were already in a sorry state.

After all, the troll's magic crystal cannon is no mere decoration.

It's also because most seventh-tier magical beasts are inherently tough and resilient; otherwise, even if the power of these magic crystal cannons was only barely at the level of a high-tier strike, it would have been enough to kill some high-tier beings under saturation attack.

"This kind of fighting can't go on forever."

"A surprise attack is definitely better than a direct confrontation, which is a bit more troublesome."

"However, things will be fine once Dawn City fully masters the power of the airships."

"This test has truly revealed the gap in strength between the two sides; the only difference between them is an industrial revolution."

Seeing this, Lin Ke decided not to let these high-level magical beasts waste any more time with the other party.

So, the next moment, Lin Ke transmitted his voice in a direction outside the city.

And so, just as the trolls and high-level magical beasts were using the barrier to fight each other, in an instant...

Without warning, just north of the troll farm city, near a mage tower, a terrifying silver giant sword over a thousand meters long suddenly fell from the sky!

"what is that?!"

"Oh no!!! A stronger enemy has appeared!!!"

"Quickly, quickly, defend the mage tower node to the north!"

The troll scribe shouted!
However, only two high-ranking trolls managed to quickly approach the northern mage tower, while there were only about a hundred mid-ranking troll officers of similar rank.

These trolls immediately used their magic crystals to draw magic power into the barrier above the mage tower.

However, the moment the silver greatsword fell, everything shattered!
A silvery-white light filled everyone's vision.

"boom!!!"

A terrifying explosion was heard!

The next moment, a terrifying hole was blasted in the barrier to the north, and at the same time, the mage tower below it was instantly destroyed.

"It's over!!!"

Upon seeing this, even the troll city lord couldn't help but change color.

As the high-ranking trolls showed expressions of fear, the mage tower was destroyed.

The magical barrier that had been connecting the surrounding area quickly faded away, centered on the mage tower!
"Roar!!!" At that moment, a terrifying eighth-tier giant ape launched a punch at the troll's city wall.

"boom!!!"

The terrifying explosion, accompanied by the force of a punch, unleashed a powerful shockwave.

With a single strike, the land and buildings in front of the eighth-tier giant ape, along with the city wall extending into the city, were instantly overturned, covering at least a kilometer in a straight line.

At the same time, more than ten other high-level magical beasts suddenly rushed into the city of trolls.

Accompanied by a sharp whistle.

At the same time, the army of low- to mid-level magical beasts five kilometers outside the city also let out excited roars.

Like a black tsunami, flying and land-based monsters surged toward the troll farm city!

"Damn it! I knew this would happen!"

"Quickly, everyone start breaking out!"

A high-ranking troll roared, but the next moment, a terrifying silver dragon appeared above his head!
The dragon charged down with the speed of a cannonball piercing the air.

And so, in the next instant, the troll was slammed into the ground by the silver dragon!

And at that moment, a woman wearing silver armor appeared!
Angelina blocked the troll city lord's path!

The two locked eyes, and the troll city lord's eyes narrowed sharply.

"Human professionals?"

"Your power seems to be just one step away from the Saint rank, right?"

The troll spoke in the language of the humans of the continent of Carth.

But Angelina couldn't understand any of this.

Moreover, she had no intention of listening.

Because in the next instant, the silver dragon-blooded female warrior raised her greatsword and suddenly flashed towards the troll city lord.

The Troll City Lord is currently the only entity in Farm City that resembles a ninth-tier being.

Faced with Angelina's attack, he instinctively drew a giant axe in an instant to block it in front of him.

"boom!!!"

Accompanied by a metallic clanging sound.

Like the two high-ranking trolls before him, this city lord was also slammed hard into the ground!

"Damn it! How can the difference in power be so vast!"

"No!!! You are not a human professional from this world at all. Your power aura is very different from theirs!"

The troll city lord, who had been smashed into the ground, immediately rushed into the sky again, swinging his giant axe at Angelina while roaring!
Of course, this time he did not use the human language of the continent of Cartel, but instead used spiritual power to transmit his voice.

However, Angelina remained calm and indifferent in the face of the troll lord's counterattack and roar.

Angelina simply sidestepped the giant axe that came crashing down on her, and the two passed each other.

Then a bright silver light could be seen streaking across the sky, slashing diagonally into the high heavens and even splitting the clouds in two.

The next instant, the troll city lord turned around.

But at this moment, he was unable to say anything.

He stared at Angelina with her long silver hair, his expression filled with resentment, wanting to roar, but blood was already gushing from his mouth.

Blood blocked his mouth, and in the end he could only utter two muffled sounds.

Then, in the next moment, a corpse was split in two diagonally from the chest and abdomen and fell to the ground.

"Surrender!!! We surrender!!!"

The death of the troll city lord terrified the few high-ranking trolls who were still struggling.

Thus, when faced with the pursuit of high-level magical beasts, two trolls immediately cried out for mercy.

The high-level magical beasts remained completely unmoved by their pleas for mercy!

Because begging for mercy in battle is often unreliable. Even if they do beg for mercy, it's usually because the monsters have beaten the trolls half to death and then selectively captured them!

The battle continues.

High-ranking trolls are fleeing, while a large number of magical beasts have poured into the city.

Mid- to low-level magical beasts began hunting down ordinary troll soldiers within the city. At the same time, some magical beasts, under command, immediately went to take control of the human slave camps.

Human slaves are valuable assets for Dawn City in the future, and cannot be allowed to be devoured by magical beasts at will.

The whole battle was too fast!

From the appearance of the monster army to the complete destruction of the farm city's magical barrier, the entire process took less than half an hour.

No high-level magical beasts entered the city. Apart from flying species that were hunting down high-level trolls, all other high-level magical beasts immediately surrounded the city to prevent any trolls from escaping.

What followed was the monsters wiping out the entire city.

This process lasted for about two hours.

At this point, data on the troll's farm city was also available from Lin Ke's perspective.

[Farm City] (Occupied, information can be displayed)

[Ruler: Troll Empire]

[Troll population: Approximately 120,000]

(Including the surrounding small villages and towns that are attached to this city)

Human population: Approximately 230,000

(Including the surrounding small villages and towns that are attached to this city)

[Combat force composition: eight high-ranking trolls, forty-seven mid-ranking trolls, five hundred and sixty-three low-ranking trolls, and ordinary trolls not counted.]

(Currently, there are six dead and two seriously wounded prisoners among the eight high-ranking trolls, dozens of surviving prisoners each among the mid-ranking and low-ranking trolls, and thousands of prisoners among the ordinary trolls.)
Looking at the panel below.

Lin Ke simply smiled slightly.

With a good record, the high-level troll has captured two prisoners, which is not bad. Perhaps we can get more information out of him next.

As for the low- to mid-level trolls, and even ordinary trolls, so many have been captured.

This is actually another idea of ​​Lin Ke's.

It's not necessary to kill all the trolls.

One option is to leave them to the players, and the other is to capture some surviving infants to train as troll slaves in Dawn City. These creatures might be better suited for hard labor than humans.

After all, they are tall and strong, and if we take good care of them, we can use them to help 'demon hunters' gain experience through beast battles.

At present, the low- and mid-level magical beasts are mowing down the troll army in the city like cutting grass. Although there are some casualties, in terms of the spoils, it can be considered that these naturally ferocious magical beasts have vented their pent-up frustration from being 'raised' for so long.

However, most of the troll soldiers killed in the troll city died while trying to escape the city.

Almost all of them were harvested in large numbers by high-level magical beasts.

Of course, some were torn to pieces by the 30,000 rankless magical beasts on the outermost edge, more than ten kilometers away from the Troll Farm City.

As for the dead trolls, they were one of the few good food sources for the monsters.

The troll corpses in Dawn City can feed the monsters in the city for at least three to five months.

Lin Ke witnessed the entire process.

Meanwhile, several human players also witnessed all of this.

One of the human players even secretly climbed the clock tower, the highest point in the troll city, during the Warcraft siege.

This is a level 7 player, who hasn't even entered the next rank yet.

Being able to reach level seven in the city, it's obvious that this guy must have secretly killed quite a few ordinary civilian trolls.

This guy had been hiding in the sewers, which is why he escaped the search on the previous simulation day.

This player witnessed the entire battle.

At this moment, on Earth, a player is extremely excited in front of the computer, exclaiming that he has made a fortune.

"Good heavens! I just found out the chief wasn't far from here, and then I logged into the game and found out about Warcraft siege!"

"This scene is inexplicably exhilarating!"

"Luckily, I recorded the whole thing. Wouldn't it have gone viral if I posted it?"

"And now, does this mean I can finally work under the CEO? This is a steal!!!"

In reality, this player recorded the entire process, and while he was excited, he was also spotted by a flying monster.

However, the flying monster merely stared at it warily and did not attack.

This player had anticipated this, and even blew a kiss to the flying monster, which made the flying monster look at the human player with an expression that said, "Are you crazy?"

The siege, which lasted for more than two hours, has ended.

But half an hour passed while Lin Ke was cleaning up the battlefield, and he still hadn't received the settlement reward.

He had just found it strange, but the next moment, he finally understood why.

Because, just a short distance from the troll farm city, three terrifying beams of light were rapidly shooting towards them from the distant horizon.

The speed was so great that it even dispersed the surrounding clouds!
