There was a heavy treading sound, and even the earth was sobbing.
There was a busy scene in the military camp. The beasts of burden raised by the ogres were dragging logs and rolling stones. The demons and human knights refused to admit defeat and pulled the ropes to raise the mechanism. The succubi in frivolous short skirts were walking through various rest areas carrying trays. Here, he flaps his little wings and serves energy-replenishing drinks.
Another group of adventurers were about to go underground to clean up the nests of troubled monsters. The silhouette of an angel passed over their heads. Before they could raise their heads to take a closer look, a giant dragon landed heavily beside them and handed over a stack of letter paper in its paws. .
Further away, tents of major churches were stationed, and medical supplies and magic props were shipped in batches. The priest rolled up his sleeves and carried the stretcher inside.
Different races and different camps are intertwined in the same military camp. Just looking at them is dizzying.
"We are really doing something extraordinary, right?" Joey accompanied Ryan through the military camp and said with stunned eyes.
"Yeah..." Ryan smiled and sighed. He participated in the crusade to solve a major crisis, and joined hands with many forces to fight a magnificent battle. Isn't this the scene he dreams of in his adventure career?
I have been listening to foreign travelers narrate these legendary poems since I was a child. Even now, when I experience them myself, I always feel that they are not very real.
Ryan looked down at his hands, which were trembling slightly.
That's not fear.
But excitement.
Sure enough... the adventure was great.
If the last battle in Jieyi Mountain was just an emergency, this time it was a completely formal expedition. The church, knights, adventurers and craftsmen who defended their cities all joined in. This atmosphere was very exciting.
"This is probably the first time that someone has united so many forces." Joey said blankly. There was no doubt that he was completely immersed in this scene at this moment.
Ryan raised his eyebrows.
"That's not necessarily the case," he smiled and looked away, "Joy, have you forgotten the time Luo Wei invited us to dinner last winter?"
"You mean the New Year's Eve dinner party?" Joey looked at him with trembling lips, "Does that count?"
Making rice cakes, making dumplings, and cooking glutinous rice balls? ?
Joey thought it would be better not to connect the scene in front of him with those things, as his dream would be shattered...
Xie Lunde touched his dark head on the side, not that he couldn't understand Joey's mood.
"Ahaha... just think that he gave us a good start."
"Haha," Ryan also laughed and patted Joey on the back, "Just be glad that Jutman is not here and can't ridicule you."
"Others are already making fun of me when I'm not here," Joey said expressionlessly, "Why can this guy be with the Lake Elf?! And Jas, it is said that there are many female members in the underground adventurer team!"
Ryan: "..."
Because of the combat deployment, Jutman, who was good at making traps, and Jas, who had a keen sense of smell, both came to help. Jinris, who could communicate with the ogre's giant beast, was also invited to come over. As for John, he naturally stayed with the craftsmen.
Everyone is busy.
But Ryan didn't say that as a joke. If you think about it carefully, it was exactly after the New Year's Eve dinner that all the major forces suddenly came to find you, and gradually the current alliance was formed.
Perhaps it was from Rowena's seemingly unruly behavior that he saw the possibility of gathering the same force.
Really...
Ryan sometimes wonders whether these forces were deliberately pushed to him by his bad friend. He originally explored the ruins with Sherrond and others and accepted entrustments to help deal with troubles in various territories. Elufa and the others came to him. The timing is too coincidental.
Let’s ask some time later.
If this is the case, this guy will have to pay the bill next time he drinks.
After passing through the military camp and reaching the passage of the valley below, the dwarf king Kamesh turned around worriedly, and his expression immediately brightened up after seeing Ryan.
"Oh, my friend, it's so good to see you're okay!"
Facing the dwarf king who was hugged only to his chest, Ryan patted his back.
"I'm sorry, Kamesh...I can't keep the magic weapons out of your territory."
"Don't say such things," Kamesh buried his head in his arms, "I...I don't mind too much, just a little bit."
Ryan knew that the other party felt sorry for the half-built underground palace he had built. If the magic weapon was destroyed, he might have to rebuild it in another place.
Dwarves like to dig down and explore the treasures of the earth. They have mature skills accumulated over a long period of time. They can often hollow out a mountain and build a magnificent underground city inside as a symbol of the glory of the local dwarves.
In addition, Tie Tong Ridge is surrounded by mountains and is located on the edge of the Broken Ridge Plateau. For the magic weapon, this is equivalent to a step-by-step downward step, and it is also the only place on the entire path that can temporarily trap her.
If it were in another position, it would not only take more time to detour, but also fall from a direct drop of several thousand meters. It would probably take ten and a half days for the magic weapon to resume action.
"The underground palace can be rebuilt at any time. Your people survive. This is the most important thing."
"Really, really?"
In the past two days, the dwarves from Tietong Ridge have moved to the foot of the hillside of Thunder Point in the west. This is the territory of the Northern Thunder Dragon. In the past, other creatures have never been allowed to approach. Now, because they have joined the alliance to fight, they have agreed to the dwarves’ temporary settlement. ask.
The Northern Thunder Dragon was originally from the same lineage as the Cang Qinglong led by Vanessa of Jieyi Mountain. They were originally separated due to the devastating blow of the magic weapon. Maybe the two tribes are now incompatible, but when it comes to facing the issue of magic weapons, the two The attitude is the same.
"I can't guarantee anything else, but I promise you that your people will be fine in this battle."
"I know this. I mean the underground palace can be rebuilt at any time..."
Ryan: "..."
He grinned, patted Kamesh on the shoulder, and continued moving forward.
The dwarf king stood there and scratched his head.
"I can build it smaller without any problem...!"
Hearing him shouting this, another lord in the distance turned around and immediately knew that Kamesh was reluctant to part with his precious underground palace and wanted Ryan to find someone to help him build it later, and he immediately laughed.
"No matter how small it is, it is still a ruin."
Kamesh: "..."
With another earth-shattering rumble, the magic weapon took another heavy step forward. Everyone in the military camp steadied themselves amid the shock, and then received the order to evacuate.
In two steps at most, the magic weapon is about to enter Tietong Ridge.
Considering that the Craftsmen Association may not necessarily follow common sense, they must not wait for the last moment to take action. It is very likely that the next step will be to sound the clarion call for war.
"Quick, evacuate!"
"Put everything down and get out of the valley!"
"Go and call back all the adventurers underground!"
The entire valley bottom area where the dwarves live suddenly became noisy, and the crowds retreated towards the south like a flowing river. Viewed from above, they looked like they were pouring out of a narrow bag mouth.
They will first retreat to the back of the ridge, and then according to their own combat teams, they will be assigned to various points on the mountain to fight as planned.
The legion actually has no nominal commander-in-chief, but this does not affect anything. After the tactical configuration is arranged in advance, the legions of each force will lead their own troops to carry out operations. They are all leaders and elites in their respective territories, and they know what they should do. What, there is no need for someone to point fingers and direct every step.
This is what alliance means.
It is not a large army commanded by one person, but each of their armies is a military force capable of standing alone, and there are many powerful divine beings among them.
But now, after experiencing so many incidents, the various forces have already passed the stage of intrigue. After the conspiracy and atrocities of the Craftsmen Guild are made public, the lords who dare to join at this time but deliberately do not contribute will only be labeled as secretly colluding with the Craftsmen Guild and becoming enemies of everyone.
Even Randall, Prime Minister of the Lion Garden, publicly stated that those forces that dared to hinder the Legion's operations, causing losses to the Crownless City now controlled by the Lion Garden, would surely face the iron-blooded sanctions of the Lion Garden army in the future.
No one can guess how true or false his words are, but no power lord dares to gamble.
This is simply giving the reason for war directly to the prime minister.
Those forces that did not join the alliance and chose not to participate in the war would naturally not be affected by the results of the war, and they would have no say in the situation in Crownless City in the future.
A single sentence can stabilize the surrounding situation, and this person is probably the only one who has such courage.
On the clouds, the magic warship hovered far away.
The petite Fifth Princess stood on the deck, leaning on a chair and overlooking the ground. The strong wind blew her long light yellow hair and delicate skirt, and she stood upright against the wind like a small dot.
Now, looking at the entire Crownless City and surrounding forces, she is the only one who is not under Randall's control and plays a key part in the battle.
Sapphire-like eyes stared intently at the scene on the ground. Not long after the last action, the huge black shadow covering the snowfield let out a deep whimper again.
Are you looking down on intelligent beings?
No one knows, but humans who take precautions in advance are not easy to mess with.
"dock----"
Only fifteen minutes had passed since the last action, and the magic weapon uprooted huge limbs from the snowfield.
The surrounding snow was shaking, and the huge weapon slowly leaned back, its surface covered with a layer of gilded light.
Then——
A huge gap opened in the ground, and she jumped out, flying like a mountain with unreasonable expressiveness.
A black shadow enveloped the ground, and the distance that originally took two steps to cross was smoothed out at this moment, and the huge body landed heavily on the north peak of Tietong Ridge.
Mountains and rocks cracked, the sky collapsed and the earth shook.
The huge peaks shattered in response, and half of the peaks sank into the valley. Only then did the people who hastened their escape from the disaster area truly realize that this thing actually had another name -
World-destroying weapons.
Even if they were defeated here, the trauma they left on the landscape would probably not fade away for thousands of years.
The movement of the magic weapons did not stop.
After destroying an entire row of peaks, her body slowly leaned forward. Even if she was standing on the other side's peak, it was as if she felt the pressure of an entire mountain falling in front of her eyes.
This thing really shouldn't exist in the world.
People were convinced in their hearts that any solid city-state built by intelligent creatures on earth would be like a toy in front of it, and no capital city could withstand such a collision.
In this terrifying scene, the magic weapon fell heavily.
She maintained the tilt angle to avoid turning over due to tipping, and fell into the bottom of Tietong Ridge.
Boom————! ! !
The huge body smashed through the surface and fell directly into the underground space dug by the dwarves, and the underground palace underneath was sat down.
Kamesh, who was lifted into the air by magic, looked at this scene and his heart broke.
He looked at Elfa beside him.
"We can still save him later, right?"
Elufa looked at him with a complicated expression, shook her head and sighed.
"You should treat it as a relic."
"..."
…
This shock lasted for a long time, and the surrounding rocks also cracked and toppled under the impact, triggering a landslide.
After that, the magic weapon, which was mostly stuck in the valley, completely lost its movement.
Everything became silent.
High in the sky, a few small dots fell from far above, passing through the smoke and dust without leaving a trace, and landed on the back of the magic weapon.
Luo Wei walked out of Shaye's arms and glanced at the people behind him.
Take a deep breath slowly.
Then he took out his sword and waved away the smoke, staring coldly ahead.
"Then start looking for holes."
