After a moment, the dwarf's forward troops collided with the dark elves' shield wall. Almost instantly, the enemy's shield wall sank in. The Dread Spearmen are no match for the Ironbreaker Warriors, no matter how much influence the chaotic energy flowing in the northern continent has on them.
Elves are most influenced by the Chaos Gods due to their affinity to the winds of magic. It incited the arrogance factor in the souls of the elves, causing the elves' arrogance to continue to expand. The dark elves further understood the power of indulgence and sought to harness it.
Relying on their madness and pursuit of excitement, they were able to compete with the high elves even though their population and resources were at a disadvantage. But that was on a macro scale between races. When it came to the front of the battlefield, the dark elves still couldn't make up for their disadvantages in equipment and physical talent.
The clumsy Abyss Siren was driven back from the city wall by the beast master. Although the giant beasts living in the ocean can move on land, they are still subject to some restrictions.
The long-range firepower of the dwarves has been greeting the sea monster, but its scale skin can effectively block damage from long-range weapons. Many projectiles did not hit the target and were directly slid away.
"Where are my rockets?" Snorri looked at the warriors who were about to get close to the siren, and its tentacles kept twisting and making a soul-crushing howl.
He roared, and soon a group of Iron Dragon gunners carrying modified weapons came to the front of the team. These new units, which Snorri spent heavily to form, will participate in actual combat for the first time.
They didn't need to aim at all, they fired the rockets in their hands directly at the Kraken, and twenty missiles trailing flames went straight towards the giant beast. Although the dark elf commander had never seen this latest weapon, he was keenly aware that it was very powerful.
The spiked whip and beast-taming pole fell on the Abyss Kraken. The monster reluctantly twisted. Those things were attached with unique black magic, which could give it strong stimulation but only cause... A little bit of substantial harm.
It dodged a few rockets, but was hit by the rest. The sounds of "Boom!" and "Boom!" were heard all of a sudden. The single shot of this thing may not be as powerful as a cannon, but it is better in quantity. The specially designed cone-shaped warhead can more easily penetrate the thick skin of the giant beast.
After the smoke passed, seven or eight bloody holes were cut out of the sea monster's body, and several of its tentacles were broken. The beast suffered so much damage in an instant. After being stunned for a moment, he broke free and ran towards the sea.
The ships of the dwarf navy started to move and rushed forward to intercept it with full power, while the dark elves were stunned on the spot. Dozens of cold lizard knights saw this scene as soon as they walked around to the side, but they did not retreat on the spot.
The Cold Lizard Knights are considered the elite of the dark elves, and they are the best warriors. At the same time, it is not easy to obtain a cold lizard mount, so they are all wealthy and ambitious aristocratic children.
The cold lizard is a ferocious cold-blooded carnivore that is much larger than a horse. They identify their enemies by scent. In order to avoid being attacked by their mounts, dark elves must repeatedly smear the cold lizard's foul-smelling venom on themselves, so that the beasts will accept him.
Applying venom brings many side effects, but the benefits are also huge. No matter how well-trained and carefully cared for the war horse is, it will be difficult for it to go through a round in front of the brutal cold lizards of Naggaroth.
These knights and their mounts were all covered in heavy armor cast by elven blacksmiths, and they came running towards the dwarves with lances powerful enough to pierce dragon skin. They knew that such a powerful weapon would take a long time to load, and seizing this opportunity might bring a chance of victory.
"Want to charge? No way!" Snorri struck his slowness rune. The cold lizard knights felt as if the air around them had hardened. Their charging speed slowed down sharply, and they were directly intercepted by the dwarf melee troops in place. down.
The power of the runes also limited the speed at which they could turn their mounts and retreat. Snorri saw that the speed of the cavalry was weakened to not much faster than his own people, and he was very satisfied with the effect of the slow rune. He didn't even have a chance to try his hand in the hinterland of the Mountain Kingdom before.
The butchers eager to fight caught up and wielded their axes to dismember the cold-blooded animals. The dark elves' frontal defense also collapsed after struggling for a while.
The Black Ark pirates have little to deal with the heavily armored ones, after all, they often engage in hand-to-hand combat with their enemies between the masts and on the narrow decks. These pirates usually use light weapons, such as scimitars, fist daggers, barbed daggers, etc. It's very effective at cutting down sailors without armor, but against dwarves it can only leave scratches.
Snorri saw the captain of the Black Ark retreating to the Black Ark, surrounded by a small group of dark elves holding halberds and equipped with obviously different equipment. Snorri believed that those guys were the elites trained by the Black Guard of Nagarond, the Witch King Malekith.
This group of guys obviously did not appear here to serve as personal guards or assault troops for the Black Ark Captain. They played more of a surveillance role.
Just when Snorri was wondering why the captain still wanted to run to the ship, a manticore falling from the sky gave him the answer. The most revered creature among the dark elves is the manticore, as they believe it to be one of the thousand incarnations of Khaine the Bloodhand.
The manticore swept away the black guards around its master with a pounce, and the Black Ark captain jumped on its back to escape from the air.
"It's a good idea!" Snorri muttered. As expected of a pirate who has been making a living at sea all year round, he still has a good judgment on the situation. At this time, running to the Black Ark can only be a fight between trapped beasts.
Snorri held the hammer and aimed at the manticore in mid-air. This monster's wings were flesh wings, and its main purpose was actually to glide in the mountains. It couldn't fly too high or for too long.
Snorri triggered the power runes on his gloves and his Storm Hammer skill, and the hammer was shot out with greater power. The Captain of Black Ark was still immersed in the joy of escaping. Suddenly, his mount howled, fluttered twice and then fell straight down.
The dwarves swarmed towards the landing point. The captain had already fallen to the point where he was barely breathing, and was easily killed. Seeing that there was no hope of escape, the black guards shouted and launched a desperate charge towards the dwarves.
Snorri didn't want to risk the lives of his tribe to test the armor-piercing effect of the dark elf-enchanted halberd. He directly signaled the long-range troops to fire, overwhelming the elites who had no shields or low-level human shields.
