The "rumbling" sound was getting closer and closer, and the earth was shaking a little.
Captain Lancer reacted quickly and drew his sword and turned his horse's head towards the valley. At this time, the hundreds of black-armored guards behind him all turned their horses' heads and changed direction.
The low horn sounded in the valley, and Poole ran over and shouted: "Don't worry! Don't worry! This is the horn of our Gaoling clan. It's the clan leader who must have sent someone here. He knows you want to attack." The Fortress of Pain is here to assist you.”
Captain Lancer listened to Poole's words but did not relax his vigilance at all. He would not be relieved until he saw and confirmed things like war, otherwise he would have to remain vigilant at all times.
"Boom..Boom..Boom..Boom.." A team of high mountain giants appeared from the valley, all wearing bone armor, wearing bone helmets on their heads, and walking toward Gale Wind Village with bone weapons in their hands. . Captain Lancer was relieved.
Not far away, the High Mountain Giant troops stopped. A High Mountain Giant standing in front came up and saw Poole nodding.
"You are Lancer, right?" the Highmountain Giant said.
"That's me," Captain Lancer replied.
"I participated in the battle under the order of the leader of the High Mountain Giants, Yi Ge. I heard that you are going to attack the Fortress of Pain." The High Mountain Giant said.
"Yes, let's set off right away!" Captain Lancer said.
"Okay, we'll meet at the Fortress of Pain. You guys take the main road here, and we'll take the small road on the other side. We'll attack them from both sides," the High Mountain Giant said.
After speaking, the high mountain giant returned to the front of the team and knocked the ground with his weapon. At this time, all the high mountain giants followed him and turned around.
The horn sounded again and the troops of the high mountain giants set off. Although they were tall and fat, they did not look very flexible, but these high mountain giants had very good endurance, and their huge bodies and legs were much longer than humans. If they were really going at full speed It won't be much slower than a horse on the road, otherwise it would be a living target.
"One hundred of you stay to defend the village. Gorak's orders are my orders while I am away! The rest follow me and prepare to set off." Captain Lancer said.
At this time, the 100 black-armored guards at the end of the team withdrew from the team and came to Gorak. Gorak quickly deployed defense without any courtesy.
"Lead the way!" Captain Lancer said.
Guo Zheng nodded and Qinqin, and Xiaoba urged the horses to rush towards the Fortress of Pain, followed closely by Captain Lancer and the black-armored guards.
The numerous horses ran with great momentum like a tidal wave, bringing up bursts of dust wherever they ran. The monsters Guo Zheng encountered before had long heard the noise and hid far away.
"Wow! It's so cool! I feel like a marshal, leading so many people into the battle," Xiaoba said excitedly, not forgetting to turn his head from time to time to look at the many guards following behind.
"Come on...it's just you...if you were the marshal, then we would die." Qinqin said in attack.
The two of them were like a couple teasing each other, Yi'er said less, but it was obvious that she was also very excited, her eyes were staring brightly ahead, and she was holding the reins tightly in her hands. Guo Zheng was also extremely excited. In the past, I had only seen this kind of scene in movies. At that time, I would be shocked by the spectacular scene, let alone being in it now in the game and leading many guards to charge, not to mention how happy I feel.
At this time, he could see the first level of the fortress from a distance. Guo Zheng slowed down a little and got closer to Captain Lancer and said: "Captain Lancer, in front of you is the Fortress of Pain. This fortress has five floors in total, and the two floors are in above ground, and the other three levels are in the basin below.”
"Just come here first." Captain Lancer said, drawing a semicircle in the air with his sword and then swinging it down. At this time, the black-armored guards behind him slowed down and stopped.
Captain Lancer took Guo Zheng, Qinqin, Yi'er, Xiaoba and others withdrew to the center of the team. The surrounding guards in black quickly gathered around to form a square formation, locking them firmly in the center.
At this time, it is necessary to move forward steadily to avoid any ambush by the enemy. They advance cautiously towards the Fortress of Pain. However, what is puzzling is that there are no ambushes or traps along the way. The team can see the two-story fortress as they move forward. There was still no movement in the place at that time, and no bandits were found patrolling and guarding around. There were no bandits standing guard even on the fortress.
It felt strange. Captain Lancer thought for a while and said: "Go at full speed and charge!"
After saying that the formation dispersed, before Guo Zheng and the others could react, Captain Lancer took the lead and urged the horses to run at the front of the team. The black-armored guards behind them urged their horses to catch up, and hundreds of horses rushed towards Pain. fortress.
"Let's go too!" Guo Zheng said and urged the horses to follow him.
Sure enough, when everyone rushed down the slope, they found that there were only some forging tools and the huge stove left in the basin, as well as some firewood and tents.
"Go in and search! The rest of you are on guard outside!" Captain Lancer ordered.
These black-armored guards immediately divided into two groups. One group was on guard around the area, while the other group rushed into the Fortress of Pain with weapons.
Guo Zheng came over to inspect the things discarded underground, especially the large melting pot. Guo Zheng shook it with his hand and found that the inside was no longer hot. This proved that the Oria Brotherhood had been away for some time. , Sure enough, after a while, the black-armored guards came out one after another, and there was not even a shadow of a person inside.
"Retreat!" Captain Lancer ordered, and everyone retreated above. Captain Lancer looked around and suddenly felt something was wrong.
He murmured to himself: "Why haven't these high mountain giants appeared yet? Although we have been riding horses for so long, it should be paved." Captain Lancer looked around. This basin was not big in the first place. If it was a body as big as a high mountain giant, it should have been discovered long ago. As a result, everyone returned to the road and looked around at nothing except the endless desert.
"Bang!! Bang!!! Bang!!!!" Suddenly a huge sound echoed in the wilderness. Even these battle-hardened horses screamed because of the sudden noise. Qinqin and Xiao Bageng He was startled and collapsed on the ground. Fortunately, Yi'er was able to stand up with a stick. Guo Zheng also subconsciously covered his ears with his hands.
"No! It's a cannon!" Captain Lancer judged after hearing the sound.
"Then let's go back to the village quickly!" Guo Zheng said.
"No, the sound of the cannons did not come from that side. From the direction of the sound of the cannons, I feel that it should be the direction of the road where the High Mountain Giants are heading." Captain Lancer said.
"Quick! Let's rush over!" Captain Lancer took the lead in getting on his horse and shouted.
"Bang!!! Bang!!!! Bang!!!!" The huge cannon sounded again, and Captain Lancer anxiously urged his whip forward.
Captain Lancer's horse ran the fastest and had already pulled away from everyone. Although the others struggled to catch up, they always kept a distance. At this time, Guo Zheng suddenly asked about the smell of blood.
"What's the smell? Why is it so fishy?" Qinqin asked about the strange smell and couldn't help but slap her nose with her hands.
"It's blood!" Yi'er said.
"Ah... such a strong smell... how much blood must be shed..." Xiaoba said.
At this time, Captain Lancer, who was walking at the front, had stopped. Taking advantage of this moment, everyone hurried up.
When he walked to the front, Guo Zheng opened his eyes and took a deep breath: "This is..."
"Ah!" A Qinqin screamed out.
