The team was not moving very fast, which made Duke Tieko very unhappy, but he could only suppress his anger, because these were a ragtag group of adventurers, and they didn't know where you got them." Mercenaries", these are simply a miscellaneous army.
He could only be patient and hope that these hundreds of kilometers would allow this huge team to cooperate. This was also the reason why he arranged for these reinforcements of adventurers to gather here. If they were rashly sent to If brought to the fortress, I'm afraid it won't be able to provide support, and may even cause unnecessary trouble to the fortress!
However, it seems to be a little different from what he imagined. It is really difficult to integrate this huge army. A journey of several hundred kilometers would only take an ordinary person one day. However, these people actually made him spend two days and two nights, not to mention setting up camp during the period, which made him feel miserable. But even though the military situation ahead was urgent, he could only breathe a long sigh of relief. I endured it.
At noon on the third day, under the dazzling but not very hot sun, they finally arrived at their destination. When they saw this fortress, everyone's first reaction was that it was huge. Secondly, The response was still great, and the third response was really great!
I saw a huge city that could almost be said to lie across the horizon, directly dividing the entire land, making the entire horizon bow before its towering walls.
The city wall as a whole is entirely made of obsidian. I don’t know if this kind of hard stone is worthless in the world of Esgaia. All of them are in use. What’s even more exaggerated is that this wall gives people the feeling of being integrated. It looks like it is made of a whole piece of obsidian. There is no gap at all on the high wall that has been submerged in the clouds. You can really imagine his luxury.
No one could be seen at all, because the city wall had reached the cloud level, but there seemed to be no door. At least none of the 20 million people in the team could see where the door was. And just when everyone was wondering what was going on, The city wall directly opposite the forward legion began to appear like a pixel grid, with obvious traces constantly appearing, and then giant squares over a hundred meters each began to move around, without any sound, and it was so quiet that it was scary.
A few minutes later, a square hole one kilometer long and three hundred meters high appeared on the dark city wall. At this time, Duke Tieko gave the order to move forward, and the players began to walk towards the dark hole. But it is different from what you see from the outside. Although the walls are still dark inside, they are emitting soft light, allowing people to see the road.
This is a passage. After walking for ten kilometers, we soon saw a faint light. When everyone came outside, it suddenly became clear. This place is really big. Compared with the plain where they gathered, , no less concessions, and this is only part of it.
However, they soon had no time to appreciate this place, because the person who responded to Woods Fortress appeared. This was a marquis, wearing dark green full-body armor. The style seemed to be very ordinary, but the dragon head on the chest was It is unusually conspicuous and lifelike. If you look closely, it looks like it is still dripping blood. The same is true for the nearly a hundred soldiers following behind, and the flags they hold high are also embroidered with the same pattern.
Such patterns are not embroidered randomly, because in the world of Esgaia, you can only tattoo the enemy's head on your flag and armor after killing the corresponding enemy. Seeing this dragon head, all recruited The NPCs who came were all in awe, which meant that they had killed dragons. You know, the fighting power of dragons is no joke...
"Mr. Duke Tieke, the Woods Fortress welcomes you. I am Bo Li, the Duke of Woods, who asked me to come to greet you." Marquis Boli said to Tieke respectfully, "Mr. Duke Woods, I am very sorry for not being able to come to greet you in person, and I hope you can understand. It is really a stalemate in the war ahead!"
"Huh!? Are the aliens in front so difficult to deal with that they need your Blood Dragon Legion to give them a headache!?" Duke Tieke asked in surprise.
"Hey, sir, those alien races are indeed a bit weird..." Marquis Bo Li could not say anything in detail. He could only lament at the end, and Tieke did not let him continue. After all, they had already arrived at the fortress. , then just go to the front and take a look.
…
This fortress is really big. The entire adventurer army shuttles directly through it. Although there are many buildings inside, they are obviously military. The tough style and solid structure constitute a huge city, but they are not There is no such strong flavor of life.
The operations in the city have progressed, but they still need to use the teleportation array. I really have to say how big this city must be to use the teleportation array. After two short teleportations, the entire legion arrived. The side of the fortress faces the barbaric territory that the empire has never set foot on. The towering city wall pierces the sky and cannot be seen with the naked eye. The entire army has been stationed under this wall, and Duke Tieko, with a few Individuals stepped onto the city wall.
About half an hour later, Duke Tieko returned to the military formation, and the first thing he did was to order to climb the city wall.
It was like climbing up, with some twists and turns. Although the stairs on the city wall were so wide that they could be used as normal roads, they were still walking back and forth, and they were still running. After almost two or three hours, they were able to do it one by one. Panting, he reached the top.
The moment they came up, almost all the players heard the deafening shouts of killing. The murderous intent in the biting cold wind made almost everyone froze... Many of them had never been on the battlefield. Yes, even if you have experienced enough trials in the dark forest, it cannot be compared with the battlefield at this time. There is more of a gloomy and terrifying feeling, but here it is already a feeling of murderous intent and rivers of blood. .
Moreover, before they even saw the so-called aliens, some people's legs began to weaken. Amidst the shouts of killing, Duke Tieke's order came quickly, asking them to go to a section of the city wall that was almost in a state of loss. , because there were too many foreigners there, and the top commander of the fortress, Duke Woods, was already in a state of having no troops to send. If Tieko and his people hadn't felt it in time, I'm afraid one or two people would have disappeared. It won't take more than half a day at most, and that place will really become a breakthrough point for the alien attack, and it will be completely lost.
Tieke quickly learned about the situation here from Duke Woods, and the situation here obviously did not allow him to further integrate the adventurers under his hands. He could only hope that their numbers and It has the characteristics of immortality, but lacks coordination and slightly lower combat power.
The team seemed a little confused and began to advance on the wide city wall. As for the destination, the players' mission prompts have been very clearly marked.

The first ring: the battle for the fallen area of the city wall

After discussions with the fortress's supreme commander, Duke Woods, Duke Tieke absolutely directly carried out the first wave of face-to-face reinforcements to the city wall.

Punishment for failure: Remember Duke Tieko's motto, "It is the duty of soldiers to obey orders!" Only those who charge will die in battle, and there will be no surrender on the way back. Duke Tieko only has less than 50,000 private guards. People, but there happened to be a 20,000-strong supervising team among them. Needless to say, the consequences of failure.
Note: Those who die in battle are honored, and those who survive are shameful. The moment you enter the battlefield, you no longer belong to yourself, but are a member of the entire legion. Please do not retreat, and you cannot retreat. Otherwise, whether it is a foreigner or General Tieke, They will let you know the pain of death.
Whether to accept!
Everyone has received the same mission, and the target locations have been marked very clearly on the small map on their system interface. It has to be said that the distance between them is very far, reaching nearly fifty kilometers. No wonder they need to The city walls are numbered, otherwise who knows where to go just based on oral instructions.
Soon, the vanguard army came to the target city wall section while panting. The battle was very fierce, because just more than ten kilometers away, the sounds of fighting, wailing, and cursing could be clearly heard...
The alien race is almost all over the city wall here, and the human soldiers are already in a precarious group, struggling to resist. However, the ten-kilometer-long city wall is like rags, and will be torn to pieces at any time, and the remaining There were not many human soldiers down there, and they were completely surrounded.
Seeing this situation, Duke Tieko directly ordered the forward commander Count Callan to launch an attack, and this attack involved the dispatch of half a million people, because both the inscription and Callan were against these adventurers, that is, The player's strength is very doubtful, and there is not much time to arrange the command. We can only rely on the advantage of numbers in the hope of quickly opening up the situation.
The effect was beyond Tieke and Karan's expectations. When the players saw these alien races, they immediately rushed over. In their eyes, it represented a lot of experience, plus the recruited NPC soldiers, and even if this vanguard army was no longer favored, they were still the most outstanding part. Naturally, they broke away from the alien formation in an instant.
This made Tieke overjoyed and felt that he might have underestimated these adventurers, but his attitude quickly changed because new problems arose. After a brief shock, the aliens quickly responded. Come over and start adjusting your layout to meet the players' attacks.
Seeing this situation, Karan quickly began to adjust the layout, but what was bad was that after all, the team of players was formed in a hurry. When mobilized, there was a very obvious chaos, and this also gave these alien races more opportunities. They quickly began to suppress these adventurers, squeezing them towards the main formation of the forward army at the rear. The situation changed in an instant. Not only were they unable to expel the aliens, but they even began to have a tendency to attack the formation.
All of a sudden, Tieke started to frown, and he couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart. They were really a bunch of chaotic sheep, and they couldn't be trained!
