Chapter 229 79. Champions and Champions

Under Newkel's command and the assistance of the sorceresses, the prototype outline of a city quickly rose from the ground.

Druch soldiers and slaves took advantage of the limited free time to cut down the surrounding trees, and endless dark riders maneuvered on the edge of the chaos wave, constantly harassing the opponent to buy time to build the city.

Further away, the light infantry of Karond Carl and the Cain cultists of Hal Goncy, under the protection of Hagrid Grave and the cold lizard fear knights of Krakarond, successively entered the south gate of Grond.

.

"It's just right, it's just the right time." Darkus held up the monocular and looked at the duel between the flying ax and the repeating crossbow in the distance. He sighed while looking at it. At this moment, he had returned to the walled city.

Darkus will not stay in Grond without thinking. You must know that it is Morathi's territory. No one knows what will happen next. No one knows what will happen during the chaos. Maybe only Lan Gu

Gu just knew what was going to happen next, right? If Morath followed him, he would have to leave it there, and he might die in an unknown way.

If this army arrived one day later, Darkus would probably have to be surrounded for reinforcements. The army would enter the field not in a marching formation, but in a battle formation. Although it would not fail, there would still be losses beyond expectations.

By then, Malekith will most likely lead the troops in Grond City to come out to support, and a chaotic battle will break out unexpectedly outside Grond City.

In the distance, the Marauder Riders broke away from the formation of the Chaos Wave and rushed towards the Dark Riders who kept harassing them. The leader of the Dark Riders made a prompt decision and led the team to turn around. During the retreat, they kept throwing crossbows. They did not believe in evil and tried

Throwing axes, but not a single ax was thrown into the team of Dark Riders. Obviously the distance and range were not even a little bit different. On the contrary, they who caught up were harvested by the Reaper Crossbows on the Grond wall with Xiashe crossbows.

Wave after wave.

Further away, several groups of dark riders performed arc maneuvers to outflank the team of marauder riders who were shot to their death. But faster than them was a group of cold warriors who had just come out of Golond City.

Lizard Dread Knights, Darkus could clearly see through the single-channel telescope that this army came from the command of the Dread Lord of Nagarond, whom he was familiar with.

After seeing the Cold Lizard Dread Knights charging at full speed, the Dark Riders performed another arc maneuver and got stuck on the retreat route of the Predator Riders.

Darkus had no interest in continuing to watch. He knew that the two hundred or so predator riders who had caught up were left there. It seemed that their fate had been sealed from the moment they attacked.

The Chaos Wave, which was controlled and harassed everywhere, could not organize an orderly attack in a short period of time. At this time, more cold lizard fear knights were blocking the path of the Chaos Wave's attack, waiting for opportunities.

Tactical bombers belonging to Druch were dispatched, and twelve black dragons in the city took off one after another. These black dragons came from different cities and from different lords, such as the four from the Hell Calamity family, and the ones that were given to Dastan Lengyan on credit.

Only, the two on the Malevolent Temple, as well as Larkas' Barchus and Loxia's Wave Whirlpool, etc., hovered in the air for a while on the walled city, formed an orderly formation and flew towards

The densest place of Chaos Waves to the west of Grond.

"Ouch!" Darkus exclaimed. The twelve black dragons did not swoop in from the sky, but quickly passed by at low altitude. As they passed by, their poisonous breath was sprayed into the chaotic wave below, and countless northern dragons flew in.

The man and the beastmen turned into a puddle of emerald phlegm as they howled.

The javelins and throwing axes flying in mid-air could not touch the black dragon at all, and soon these long-range weapons without follow-up support crashed into the wave of chaos.

The Chaos Wave that washed away the ground revealed huge gaps in the formation, as if they had been gnawed by a mastiff. Some of the black dragons that had completed a wave of breath chose to pull up, while others were riding on them.

Under the command, try to fly lower in an attempt to attack and gain some benefits.

At this time, the black dragon in Grond City was also dispatched under the leadership of Malekith, flying in this direction. Malekith knew that building the city outside the city would take time, so he rode on an ordinary black dragon

, released an ordinary spell, causing a large number of casualties in the chaotic wave below.

The Yankees and beasts who escaped the breath could not escape this ordinary magic. They lined up in a dense sea of ​​​​people and could retreat. They had no way to run and quickly disappeared in the magic.

Darkus looked at the dignitaries who were manipulating the black dragon to show off its skills after Malekith arrived. He knew that today was over, unless the wave of chaos organized an attack at night. He also knew that Nukel had not prepared for the night.

The plan to attack.

"Let's go, let's go have dinner." Darkus suddenly became bored. He waved his hand and said without interest. Let's fight. If the opponent doesn't have an effective way to control these black dragons, tactical bombers will bomb the dense formation waiting for them at low altitude.

There is only death, unless you can rush into Grond or the stronghold where he is now in a short time.

"When was the last time Grond was besieged? It seems that Orion led Asrai's army to Naggaroth through the roots of the world? Malekith did not issue an omen that time, but watched with cold eyes.

Let his mother fend for herself." Darkus couldn't help but sighed and shook his head after thinking about this.

Ever since Darkus returned to the walled city from Golond, he suddenly became idle. Everything in the walled city was going on in an orderly manner under the command of Newkel, and there was nothing for him to worry about. In his opinion, this

On the contrary, it is a good thing. If he needs to worry about everything, it will really kill him. This shows that the quality of Druchi's army is not within his estimate. What's more terrible is that he doesn't know everything.

Smart, what to do next.

Moreover, Darkus could also feel the family's attitude. The group of family members gathered together did some research while he was away, and finally came to a conclusion. Let him stay with Newkel to learn war experience first.

Instead of attacking with the Cold Lizard Terror Knight, family members or dignitaries close to him, except for those riding the black dragon, did not participate in the small-scale battle in the afternoon, but stayed in the walled city as a reserve team.

Darkus did not feel angry. He could understand the family's worries. This wave of chaos was originally coming for him. If he was surrounded for reinforcements, it would cause a lot of unplanned troubles. The dignitaries who were also close to him would be surrounded.

If we call for reinforcements, there is a high probability that he will rescue them, so in order to avoid these unnecessary troubles, we might as well become a reserve team for the time being.

"Isn't this protecting Athena? Why is it protecting Dacus?" Dacus couldn't help but muttered after thinking about this.

Seeing the gentle young master Nukel standing in front of the sand table and constantly issuing orders, Darkos felt particularly at ease. Nukel had arranged many plans for possible situations.

Darkus' first night outside the city of Golond was uneventful, and no night attack occurred. This showed that the Chaos Wave was exhausted after a forced march and needed to rest.

But in the middle of the night, a sudden and brutal battle began, and the roaring lightning struck the walls of Grond's fortress like a hammer.

Hearing the thunder, Darkus sat up from the bed. Soon, with the help of Genevieve, he rushed out of the tent fully dressed. The servants living next to him also rushed out of the tent in a short period of time.

He rushed out of the tent, and when he looked at Maranur who was holding a long sword, the horn sound of continuing to rest sounded in the walled city. The two brothers did not say anything, but nodded to each other and returned to the tent.

Continue to rest.

The earth-shattering thunder almost drowned out the high-pitched wailing of the trumpets on the Grond wall. Julian Baneblade stood up from under the battlements and stared at the darkness in front of him, as if he wanted to see something.

Julian was naturally recruited, and he followed his father in response to the call of His Majesty the Witch-King, from the arena and banquet of the powerful in Naggarond to the city wall northeast of Grond.

Suddenly, a foul-smelling cold wind whizzed past Julian's face and entangled his sweaty black hair.

The leaden plain was now pitch black, and Julian counted the seconds, waiting for the next bolt of lightning.

"My Kane!" Julian exclaimed.

The bright light of lightning illuminated the ground, and the entire plain was covered with a wave of chaos rushing towards the walls of Grond.

"Stand up! The enemy is coming!" Julian shouted to Malus, who was squatting and napping under the battlement next to him. When Malus didn't respond, he kicked him directly.

The Druchi on the city wall were shocked when they saw this scene. They could hear the roar of the advancing tide of chaos amidst the violent storm.

The sorceresses in the city, led by Morathi, began to counteract this strange storm magic. Sometimes the lightning struck continuously, and sometimes it stopped for a long time.

The ground under the city wall was covered with the corpses of Yankees and Beastmen. Under Julian's gaze, crossbow arrows began to pour out from the shooting holes of the diamond castles on the left and right sides.

The horned beastmen screamed and stumbled forward. This group of deformed guys had no way to escape. Their crude equipment could not prevent them from resisting attacks from three directions. Some were struck by deadly lightning that did not distinguish between friend and foe.

Some have fallen dead in a pool of blood.

But more still chose to charge forward, not afraid of the deadly crossbows. The offensive ladder had been set up, and the Yankees began to try to climb the city wall one by one. Some were attacked halfway up the city wall from the left and right.

They were hit by crossbows and fell down. Some of them had just climbed onto the battlements, but before they could do anything, the pirates from Caronde Carl used their repeating crossbows in close range shooting mode and shot them in the face through the gaps in their shields.

, and then after a few seconds, there was a snapping sound, and then it stopped.

Julian's armor was splattered with dried blood and stinking pus, and his arms became heavy from the killing. He couldn't remember whether it was the third or fourth time he had repelled the attack. At this time, he

Some even couldn't tell whether it was day or night.

The dark clouds above the head were not dispersed, but tightly wrapped around Grond like a shroud, blocking the leaden sunshine.

Maybe time has lost its meaning from the beginning of the battle.

The wave of chaos temporarily subsided, and Druchi, who was assigned to guard this section of the city wall, groaned and cursed bitterly, and slowly leaned against the wall to rest. Most of them were from the army of Karonde Kal, and they

The emblem on the shield and the lightweight Kaitan favored by pirates prove this, as well as a small number of temporary recruits from Naggarond.

When the first attack began, these Drukhi soldiers were elated because it represented military glory and killing, but now their faces were tired and stained with dirt and other people's blood.

Soon, groups of Druchi soldiers bearing the emblems of the Fallen Heart Family and Karonde Kal came up. These soldiers were either carrying extra shields, wooden boxes full of crossbows, and barrels.

Food and drinking water.

Lechkiel was dressed in military uniform, with fluffy green hair hanging down to his waist. He wore a gorgeous headdress without protection, and a half-armor that wrapped his chest. His left shoulder and arm were exposed to the air, and he was carrying a

A peculiar double-headed halberd.

As for Loxia, he did not arrive. He wanted to ride his black dragon, which he named "Whirlpool", to prepare for the next attack.

Malus, who was standing next to Julian and was panting, was not much better either. He raised the bucket and drank it roughly with his head tilted back. Then he threw the bucket aside and continued to rest against the battlements.

.

Julian looked at Malus, who was appointed as the champion by His Majesty the Witch King, with disdain. Malus felt his eyes turning to look at him.

One is Malekith's current champion, and the other is the possible future champion, just looking at each other silently on the walls of Grond.

Julian shook his head without saying anything, but took out a chewing tobacco box from his arms, opened the chewing tobacco box gently and put the few remaining chewing tobacco into his mouth. When he thought of something, he took out the chewing tobacco again.

The box was thrown to Malus, who took the chewing tobacco box and looked at it first, then imitated Julian's actions and put the only piece of chewing tobacco in the box into his mouth.

Malus chewed the chewing tobacco in his mouth. He didn't even know why he was chewing this black thing. He didn't feel any taste in the chewing tobacco. He followed Julian's example and drank the black water from his mouth.

Then he followed Julian's gaze and looked over.

"Stand up, madam," Julian shouted in a low voice, kneeling in front of a soldier.

This soldier is a young Druchi woman from Nagarond. With only a minor male in her family, she can only respond to Malekith's call to join the battle.

Malus saw no injuries on the soldier's body, but her face was extremely pale and her lips were purple. It was likely that her internal organs were broken by a blunt instrument such as a hammer or a stick, causing her to bleed internally and die in her sleep.

"Save your strength, she's already dead." Lechkiel came over and said after just one glance. After that, he moved forward. She was accepted by Malekith to defend this section of the city wall.

Fear Lord, she must prepare for the next attack she will face.

After hearing Lechkiel's words, Julian collapsed and grabbed the soldier's mail shirt and kept shaking it, as if doing so would make the soldier come alive. After shaking for a while

, he cursed angrily, then dragged the soldier to the inside of the city wall, and then pushed the soldier down.

There are piles of corpses under the inner city wall of Grond. Soldiers preparing to join the battle are stripping the armor and weapons from the corpses and dragging the corpses to the burning bonfire.

Malus was chewing tasteless chewing tobacco and watching Julian's every move. Seeing Julian pushing the soldier off the city wall, he shook his head. He turned his head and looked at other parts of this section of the wall. The two

The soldiers were dragging the body of a captain. The captain was lying on the Reaper ballista he commanded during his lifetime. His cracked brains were covered with equipment and battlements. He remembered that when the captain died, he happened to be nearby and he killed him.

He killed the Yankee who killed the captain, and he couldn't remember how many times it happened during the defense.

As the captain's body was pushed off the wall, a group of pirates from Kalonde Kal took over the still-functioning Reaper Ballista, and a second wave of Chaos attacked.

I overslept... I'm in a bad state, a little confused
