Chapter 233 83. I don’t recommend that you do this.
The northeastern part of Gorond has gone crazy, but Darkus is still peaceful here. He is fully armed and sits at the long table where Druch soldiers eat. Enjoy delicious rye bread, meat and strange-tasting rye wine.
These small quantities of wine are usually supplied to Druch soldiers during war. The rye is produced in the manor of Krakalund, and the beer is brewed by old Bretonnian farmers from the old world. When you drink it, you only feel sweet, fragrant and mellow, with a good taste. You don't feel sour or other unpleasant tastes. Although Bretonnia's beer has been widely criticized, the reason is not due to the old farmers. It's a matter of material.
The old farmers in Bretonnia usually have to use the worst quality grains and the worst environment to brew beer, which is destined to taste other than "disgusting".
But this is not the Old World, nor Bretonnia, but Naggaroth.
Several rectangular dining tables are put together, and druchis are sitting according to their identity, status and position. These druchis are either currently or have been followers of Darkus, or followers of his brother Maranur, or It was his retinue or his family members. It could be said that they were basically all gone, except for Renne and Colonia who went south to the Lustria continent.
Dastan Cold Eye's Black Ark Herald of Despair is currently docked at the docks of Naggarond. He is telling interesting stories about the interesting stories he encountered during overseas raids over the years. There is also a hint of emotion about the passage of time and the vicissitudes of life when telling it. Darkus was only sixteen years old when he took his ship to sea to participate in the trial. It was not even ten years ago, and he had a black ark. , and after returning from the sea raid, Darkus became the chief consul of Druch. Knowing it is one thing, but seeing it is another.
Centurion Edmund (the centurion who accompanied the protagonist on the sea trial) was also among them, but he didn't say anything. He didn't have much to say. He just kept eating there. He is now able to command a group of people. He is now a fear lord with an army of a thousand men, but there is still a promotion ceremony to officially complete the transformation from the Druchi civilian class to the Druchi powerful, and become a role model for the lower class Druchi. He wanted to eat quickly and then go to maintain order among the Druch soldiers under his command.
Naika from the Cold-Eyed Family was also sitting on the table eating. After Darkus returned from the Lustria continent, he was assigned to serve as an adjutant on the Black Ark Temple of Malice of Darkus's uncle Dulias. He didn't have the slightest desire to show off. He knew that it was an exception and an honor for him to be able to sit here and eat, even though the food he ate was just what ordinary soldiers would eat. As long as he doesn't commit suicide or some strange things don't come to him, he will become famous sooner or later.
"Cheers! Cheers to Renne and Colonia." Darkus looked at the Druchis who were eating and drinking and sighed a little. Maybe it was because there were two missing, or because of the upcoming battle, he swallowed the black After eating the wheat bread, he raised his glass and said.
"Cheers!"
"Cheers!"
The expected surprise attack and teleportation did not come. Darkus seemed to be ogling the blind man. The Druchi soldiers in the walled city had been on guard, wary of possible The waves of chaos that suddenly appeared outside or in the walled city, not to mention all kinds of wild beasts, even the war hydras were half-fed and ready with the attack of the Cold Lizard Dread Knight, but in the end there was no result, the walled city Everyone here is too busy.
We were still discussing this matter during lunch, talking about everything, such as the opponent does not have the ability to perform magic teleportation, or the opponent's attention is on Grond, or the opponent is holding back a big job, or there is already internal strife on the opponent. Anyway, they said everything, except that they didn't say that maybe the power in the walled city was too strong, and maybe they had to adjust some more nonsense that the other party would come after entering Grond.
After Darkus finished eating, Krakarond's Ebony Claws and Dark Riders also came back. He had to go to the family's main building to hear the news brought back by his brother and father-in-law. After entering the main building, he learned that there were still troops on the other side that had not come up and that Malekith was riding a black dragon to support Hagrid Grave's troops.
In the afternoon, Darkus was still idle and wandering around the walled city with nothing to do. Until Draka Night Governor came back, he went to visit Draka Night Governor who had a head injury and learned about the attack this morning. The news that Grond's Chaos Wave was completely wiped out under the leadership of Malekith. But it was of no use. The siege continued in the afternoon and was more intense than in the morning. He estimated that tomorrow would be even more intense than today. By then, both the mammoth and the siege tower would be up. There are hell cannons and stuff like that.
But it's also useless, just keep it with you. If the outermost diamond fort of Grond is lost, there will still be an outer wall. If the outer wall is lost, there will still be several inner walls. Or you can come here to besiege the walled city. The attack on the walled city is relatively difficult. It is lower than Grond. It is best to defeat it in one battle and not give the army in Grond the chance to come out to harass or even fight. Maybe after Darkus dies in battle, Slaanesh who gets his soul will It would be more joyful to give Nagalia some Chaos Demons and other things from the subspace, but this is just a thought. It takes time and coordination to mobilize the army. Malekith in Grond City is not blind. He also I don’t believe that Malekith will remain motionless now.
The number of troops in Grond City may not be enough, but the baggage and supplies are definitely enough. One of the purposes of Grond's initial establishment was to defend the general nodes of Chaos in the north. Except for the easternmost strongholds, which were controlled by Karl Ka Lund is responsible for providing supplies, and the remaining strongholds are provided by Grond. The supplies in the walled city are enough to last one and a half months. After one and a half months? Darkus ran away early, and Druch, who went to sea a month later, came back. He had to go back and organize it. By then, the second wave of support and supplies would arrive in Grond in less than a month and a half. He didn't believe it. Chaos Tide's urine can last until then.
Of course, this is based on many premises. As a well-read and knowledgeable Druchi dignitary, Nagalia must have known Nagaros very well. Darkos did not think that Nagalia would besiege Grond for a month. Although he did not know the structure of the opposite Chaos Wave, Nagalia should be in an alliance with the Chaos Wave to meet each other's needs and The purpose was definitely not monolithic inside, and was even more scattered than the Druchi army with different ideas. He estimated that Nagalia would do the whole thing.
Anyway, if there are any changes, just wait for the big life Darkus. No matter how much changes happen, Nagaros and Druch cannot be wiped out. This is only the year 2000 in the imperial calendar, not 550 years later. The entire medieval world was in turmoil.
Besides, Druchi is not the Druchi of Darkus Yichi. Are so many legendary figures and so many soldiers just doing it for a living? He can't do all the work, right? What are the other Druchs doing? Just look at them and call them 666? Then he might as well just crush the Ichi Talisman and escape.
——The
meat cleaver roared across Loxia's chest with minced meat and blood. His left foot took half a step back. The horned beast that failed in the attack had no second chance. The horned beast screamed. He tried to lower his horned head and hit his chest, but the two swords he swung were faster than the horned beast's head, and the two swords cut off the horned beast's head directly like a pair of scissors. A follower next to him was not so lucky. A horned beast climbed up and bravely hugged his follower and charged all the way. They both fell directly under the inner wall of Grond.
"Why are you here?" Lechkiel had lost the grace and calmness she had at the beginning. She was covered in blood and had a gray face, and one side of the gorgeous headdress on her head was missing.
"His Majesty the Witch King has no plans to attack this afternoon. I have brought people here to support you."
Loxia's followers approached from both sides, roaring angrily and stabbing the rising waves of chaos with their short blades. After Loxia finished speaking, Go ahead and join the fight.
Lehikiel shook his head and showed a sadistic smile, and then his figure began to spin, and the double-headed halberd danced like a whirlwind. A big horned beast that had just climbed up almost fell under her blow. The big horned beast was so big With a roar, she threw the giant ax in her hand. She controlled the hook of the ax blade with her double-headed halberd like a magic trick. The halberd moved with the axe, and the people moved with the halberd. They followed the trend of her roar. The giant ax was returned to its original owner and struck directly on the waist of the big horned beast. The giant ax tore the muscles and ribs and cut the big horned beast in half almost at the waist.
Loxia, who was fighting next to her, glanced at her out of the corner of her eye. He felt that his aunt might have been exhausted after fighting for too long, or that she could not control the strength of the ax well. Anyway, he did not think that his aunt was old. Not only was she not old, but she was also Being able to use his remaining energy to help his family take a further step forward in Druchi society was one of the reasons why he came to support him. Of course, the more important reason was that many of the children of the Fallen Heart family were participating in the defense of this section of the city wall.
The big horned beast screamed and wailed, holding the handle of the giant ax with both hands and trying to pull the giant ax out of its body. Lechkiel jumped lightly on his toes, and then spun again, and the rotating halberd tip pierced In the eyes of the big horned beast.
Lehikiel, who was about to say something after landing, saw the two descendants of the family holding spears and pushing the big horned beast that was still attached to the battlement to the left and the right. She glared at the two descendants of the family but did not respond. What can I say? The feeling in the next second is gone. The horn of the big horned beast is nothing more than a trophy. It is not a trophy to be proud of.
A Yankee then arrived at the battlement. He held the shield in his left hand over his head to hold up the fallen big horned beast. The huge force almost took him off the ladder. When he reacted, he immediately tilted the shield and exposed the big horned beast's body. Smashing along the trajectory, he took another step. His face was twisted with madness, and his right hand reached out and directly grabbed the edge of the armor of a descendant of the Fallen Heart family.
Loxia's reaction was faster than that of the younger generation. He directly raised the flat serrated sword and stabbed it. The serrated sword directly penetrated the tendon under the Yankee's arm bone, and then the serrated sword stirred in the arm and cut directly upward. Go, the blood sprayed from the Yankee's broken arm spurted onto the face of the younger generation, but the Yankee's hand was still holding the armor tightly. After he pulled the younger generation away from the wall, he did not choose to jump up and kick him over. Now The city wall was already covered with blood and became slippery and twisted. He was not as capable as his aunt now. He showed a cruel smile to the Yankee, and then hit him with a headbutt. Lechkiel was also helping the family members to relieve themselves. One of the family members was fighting with a Yankee wielding a dagger. She rushed over, stamped one foot on the spine of her neck, and swung her double-headed halberd downwards. , one end of the halberd pierced the Yankee's head directly, and the tip of the halberd was so close that it could almost touch the nose of the family member who fell on the ground.
"Get up!"
The horned beast fell uncontrollably. When it fought with a gloomy swordsman beside it, the spine of his neck was cut off by the serrated sword, and the Yankee on the left of the horned beast also fell. , Julian's sword stabbed hard into the Yankee's kidney.
But the enemies seem to be endless. There seems to be a strange plane connected under the ladder, and a steady stream of Martian soldiers will be refreshed from it.
The Yankee who had just climbed up the ladder jumped up to join the battle on the wall, but Malus beside Julian was already ready. He slid in as the Yankee jumped, moved directly under the bulky Yankee, and thrust upward into the Yankee's unprotected crotch. The Yankee screamed and struck him in the side with the axe, but his breastplate withstood the powerful death blow.
Malus was not fighting as a Druchi. Although the Druchi beside him was a little unwelcome, he still helped him out.
The next beastman who climbed the ladder was hit in the head by a protruding repeating crossbow before he reached the top. For a few seconds, the Druchi soldiers gained precious breathing space.
"How did you manage to break into Darkus with your combat skills? You can't even pass my brother's level! Not to mention that Franais with a strange halberd, and there are so many women around that guy. Warlock." Julian asked, leaning on the battlements and looking at Malus, panting.
"Me!!!" Malus was covered in blood after the shovel just now, but he ignored it. Instead, he leaned on the battlement and breathed heavily to recover his strength. When he heard what Julian said, he became a little angry. , he never fought against Darkus at all when he was in Hagrid Grave, but Darkus wanted to take away Hadrica, and then it was spread throughout Nagaroth that he had hurt the wizard. A member of the Hand of the King and the Hellscourge family, and then his uncle Burroughs Burrough died, and the Black Ark Nagol became Darkus's.
Fortunately, there is no word "black pot" in Drukki society and Elvish language.
"I know, I know!" Julian laughed strangely and said after he finished laughing. At the same time, he extended his thumb, which is commonly used for winners in the arena, to gesture at Malus. After speaking, he paused. He leaned over, put his mouth next to Malus's ear and said, "I know all your legendary stories. To be honest, I admire you a little! You have done everything I wanted to do but didn't dare to do!
" Malus, who opened his mouth to say something else, swallowed what he wanted to say after hearing what Julian said. He looked at Julian in surprise. After a moment, he slowly shook his head and said.
"Although I don't know you, I don't recommend you do this!"
At this time, more troops from Kalonde Karl drove up the city wall and surrounded Julian and Malus's ladder.
Julian did not respond to Malus, but smiled at Malus, and then wiped his mouth with his hand. Inadvertently, his lips were stained with the enemy's blood.
"Wine..."
At this moment, before Julian could finish speaking, he heard a harsh sound coming from the barrier on the right. He frowned, trying to figure out what was going on. He heard Then there were violent roars and painful screams.
"There's something going on at the Castle. Don't be stunned. Come with me!" Loxia ran over and shouted when she saw Julian and Malus still standing there.
Luxia didn't want to go. He just wanted to sweep the snow in front of the door and wait for the night to come, so that he could change his defense. But that place was too important, and perhaps it would have been a mistake to leave it to that group of dignitaries, pirates, and mercenaries to defend it. He knew too well the level of Druch, who was from the same city as him. Once there is a problem there, enemies will continue to pour out from there. When the ladder is added, the defensive pressure will be even greater, so great that it may not last at night.
There was no need to close the door to the entrance of the Diamond Castle. Lockcia took the lead and rushed in directly, running along the long and narrow passage. The Reaper ballista squads and Black Reaper crossbowmen firing from within the lozenge echoed with shouts and orders, calling for targets while shouting for more ammunition. He carefully passed several buckets, which contained long and heavy ballista arrows. The arrows on the ballistae emitted a vicious green light. He knew that these ballista arrows were used to attack giant creatures.
Silsis looked at Turaris and pointed at the diamond fort. Turaris, who was standing not far away from him, followed his guidance uncertainly and nodded reluctantly after a moment. .
Under the city wall, groups of executioners carrying vicious and bright beheading knives were also rushing towards the diamond castle under the leadership of Turaris.
Executioners from Hal Goncy and other Druchi City Chapters entered the scene, followed by a group of noisy and howling witch spirits.
Sorry, I wanted to write more today, but I got stuck, so I sorted it out again.
The battle is actually not easy to write about. Those who have played Total War know that this is a traditional cold weapon battle involving magic, land and air, and the dimensions have changed instantly.
Whether the plot is interesting or boring, no matter. . Or. .
My request is not to collapse! If you write it to the end without collapsing in the mid-term, that’s victory!
