my age of magic

Chapter 1423 227. Escape from the Marsh Sea
At the beginning, there were only three to five hundred dryad warriors throwing boulders into the spider camp, and then thousands of dryad warriors threw boulders into the spider camp at the same time, and when they hoarded the giant stones for city building in Xinliu Valley The bases were carried out abruptly by the barbarian slaves. The orc warriors coated these stone bases with a layer of foul-smelling corpse fire oil, and then the dryad warriors threw the ignited giant stone bases into the spider camp. The casualties caused by the side suddenly surged.

When the Nibru spiders started, they planned to rush out from the east and west exits of the camp, but unfortunately the construction knights of Durva and Salta blocked their east gate, and I led a group of constructions from the North Wind Legion. Knights and barbarian warriors firmly blocked the exit on the west side, and the Nebulu spiders tried to use the powerful spider warlord to break through our defense line in one fell swoop, but after facing the magic baptism of ice and fire, even these The brave spider warlord rushed to the front of the camp of barbarian slaves. In the face of the 'thorns' and 'death entanglement' of the dryad warriors, the spider warlords could not bear the damage of the magic crossbow.

Some spider warlords fell on the way to charge, some spider warlords were entangled in tree roots and shot to death by the barbarian slaves' crossbows, and some spider warlords who rushed up fell on the ground. Under the spears of the costumed knights, this kind of battle inevitably began to cause casualties. Some costumed knights fell directly on the battlefield, and some were seriously injured and died in the field medical tent. The cruelest side of war began to show in my eyes. before.

The most elite orc warrior group led by Kalancuo also killed more than 20 orcs in a surprise attack by the spider warlord.

At that time, this group of orc warriors were carrying fire-throwing devices and ambushed behind a slope in the middle of the battlefield. Nearly twenty spider warlords rushed out of the spider camp at the same time, which was already beyond the reach of this narrow battlefield. The limit of carrying capacity, no matter how many spider warlords are sent by the Nebulu spiders, it is impossible for them to fight our knights at the same time at the west exit with a width of only a few hundred meters.

According to the tactics we set before, once the Spider Warlord appears, the fire-breathing team composed of orc warriors standing at the forefront of the position will lay a fire net in front of the Spider Warlord, and then walk along a slope The trench at the back retreated back, but in the previous battles, once these orc warriors set up fire nets in advance, these spider warlords would die down and retreat to the spider camp, waiting for a group of big-bellied spiders to burn the battlefield The dead body is doused.

After pulling like this several times, the orc warriors tried to get the spider warlords closer. When these cunning spider warlords walked into the range of the flamethrower, all the spider warlords in the front row suddenly accelerated. , these ten-meter-tall spider warlords are like a huge black city wall, not only blocking the rushing spider warriors with their bodies, but also using their bodies against the flame-throwing device, rushing too hard to get out of the trench In front of the retreating orc warriors.

Twenty or so spider warlords covered in scorching flames erupted with powerful combat power. Every footprint they stepped on the battlefield was stained with some sparks. Amidst their roars, this team of orc warriors knew that they could not After escaping from the spears of the Spider-Man Warlord, they picked up the Moonblade Axes beside them one after another, and a row of orc warriors in front lined up in a battle formation, and rushed towards the Spider-Man Warlord without hesitation.

And the dozen orc warriors behind were on horses, trying to break through the interception of the spider warlord and retreat from the battlefield.

Orc warriors die fearlessly on the battlefield. They regard death in battle as the greatest glory in their life, but the orc warriors will not die meaninglessly. Just like this situation where they know they must die, the leader of the orc warrior team decisively After making a decision, the twenty orc warriors holding flamethrowers in the front charged forward to stop the spider warlord in front of them, and the twenty orc warriors in charge of hydraulic devices in the back retreated with their horses. Those orc warriors have the fighting will to avenge their companions on the battlefield without end.

It's just that the young orc warriors who were in charge of the hydraulic device had a hot head, and rushed up with their companions with the moon blade axe. Therefore, only seventeen orc warriors and their companions came back from the battlefield alive. 38 black-scale warhorses.

If Justus hadn't seen some clues at the beginning of the battle, and decisively led a group of barbarian slaves out of the woods to meet this group of orc warriors, I'm afraid almost all of this team of orc warriors would have died in the spider. Beneath the black iron spears of the Overseer.

After this battle, the fire-breathing team of the orc warriors was completely maimed by the Nebulu spiders, but the Nebru spiders also paid a huge price for this. They did not hesitate to use the spider warlord as bait. Although the flames on more than a dozen spider warlords were extinguished by the sour solution of the big-bellied spider, the severely burned spider warlords remained on the battlefield forever, and a few spider warlords who had no time to retreat were killed by the barbaric man slave shot.

Seeing that the Nebulu Spiderman had fallen into a half-crazy state, he was attacking the gate on the west side of the camp in turn. After the constructed knights of the North Wind Legion repelled the Nebulu Spiderman fighters, I asked the knight followers and The indigenous warriors collected the corpses of the spider warriors on the battlefield, arranged a corpse wall piled up with the corpses of the spider warriors in the middle of the battlefield, and then took all the corpses brought from the imperial capital this time from Xinliu Valley. It was moved out of the warehouse and poured on the corpses of these spider warriors. Kalancuo personally set the fire wall hundreds of meters long on fire.

The range of 20 meters around the fire wall was too high to get close to. Even if those big-bellied spiders rushed into the fire wall one after another and blew themselves up, there was no way to extinguish the fire wall. Nearly 50 'continuous frost' magic rune plates were buried in the soil, which meant that the rune plate workshop on the imperial capital would not be able to produce freezers within half a month.

Thousands of frost rune plates completely turned the part of the road behind the battlefield into a world of ice and snow. A faint layer of frost condensed on the entire battlefield. This thin layer of frost gradually thickened over time. In the end, it seemed that the ground was covered with a thick layer of snow. This ice and snow world is the real home of the barbarian slaves and the constructed knights of the North Wind Legion, and it is also my home.

……

In addition to the exits on the east and west sides of the spider camp, the Nibru spiders could also choose to step into the marsh sea, or open a passage in the dead mangrove forest behind them, and directly kill the dryad warrior.

The spider people preferred to bypass the exits on the east and west sides of the spider camp from the swamp sea, and land on a slightly further coastline to fight with us. However, this plan of the spider people was destroyed by the ancient war tree. The main reason is that The southern fringe of the Marsh Sea and the Black Forest is covered with dense mangrove forests. Not to mention the large mangrove forests, it is difficult for the spider warriors to walk, and even our constructed knights cannot pass through the forest on horseback.

The swamp and the bushes were closely connected together, forming an area nearly ten kilometers wide. This area spread to an endless distance, becoming the first line of defense in the southern area of ​​the Black Forest.

The dryad warriors are herders in the forest. Once a large number of Nibru spidermen want to break through this mangrove forest from the coast of the swamp sea and enter the black forest, the dryad warriors will quickly activate the mangroves in this area, This mangrove that suddenly comes alive will use its roots to drag the spider warriors into the swamp. Elite fighters have always been unable to break through this natural line of defense.

In fact, on the coastline of this marsh sea, there is only the spider camp. This mangrove forest was opened up by giant spiders. Such a large area became a spider camp, and the part of the mangrove forest near the marsh sea was cleared and turned into a vast expanse of whiteness. Spider nest.

Probably in order to resist our pursuit, the spider people deliberately preserved a large dead mangrove forest in the north of the spider camp, and let a large number of giant spiders lurk in the dead mangrove forest, trying to prevent the attack of the Construct Knights.They only left two passages with a width of 600 meters on the east and west sides of the camp, which also meant that the Nibru spiders temporarily gave up their plans to capture the Black Forest of the plane of Yero.

This group of Nibru spiders probably only want to stay in this camp for a while. As long as the summer with abundant rainfall passes and the swamp sea enters the dry season, they will lead the spiderman army across the swamp and return to the sea opposite the swamp sea. Go to the Rift Valley, but unfortunately they provoked a group of the oldest aboriginal ancient tree spirits in the black forest. The ancient war trees brought tree spirit warriors to avenge those dead companions. Staying in the forest, there is no chance of winning against these dryad warriors.

After the plan of the Nebulu spiders to bypass our defense line and land operations failed, they tried to break through the dead mangrove forest in the north of the spider camp. All the spidermen were crushed to death by the giant stone foundation of the dryad warriors. This dead forest that the spidermen used to stop us from constructing the knights became their own cemetery instead.

When the Nebulu spiders sent their spider warriors to clean up the dead mangroves, they were obviously live targets. The boulders thrown by the dryads almost smashed them to pieces. The Nebru spiders used After nearly a week or so, under the circumstances of suffering huge casualties, a passage was finally opened, but when they tried to get close to the dryad warriors, they found a large group of activated trees coming up from the forest to clean them up. The way out is blocked.

The dryad warriors threw at the Nebulu spiders for a total of eleven days. Finally, the Nebulu spiders couldn't bear the huge casualties and began to step into the endless swamp sea.

In fact, the boulder bases hoarded by Xinliu Valley did not last long, and were consumed by the dryads after only three days.

Throwing by thousands of dryad warriors in one round, the boulders needed can pile up a small mountain. The granite boulder foundation dug by the barbarian slaves in the quarry was to be built on the pass halfway up the mountainside of the circular valley of Xinliu Valley. A mountain city is used. Unfortunately, I later realized that I had oversimplified things. Building a mountain city requires more than just stones.

These giant stone foundations were later planned to be transported to the town of Trom, but the town of Trom did not actually use these megalithic foundations except for the city wall and the town center council hall, so that a large number of megalithic foundations were hoarded in Xinliu Valley In the underground warehouse, it has now become a throwing weapon in the hands of the dryad warrior.

In fact, after the giant stone foundation was exhausted, the 'ammunition' used by the treant warriors was the large stone bullets that I asked Alia to buy back from the imperial capital. Prepared for large catapults, each large stone bomb has a diameter of about six feet and weighs about [-] pounds. This kind of military supplies is a regular item in the imperial capital.

Because the demand for large stone bullets is too high this time, not only did I use some of Alia's connections in the imperial capital, I also asked Louis Mensa and the Marquis of Moxiang to help gather a batch of large stone bullets.In addition, Le Die also specially wrote a letter to Earl Conrad, asking Earl Conrad to come forward to raise funds.

Almost overnight, the price of stone materials in the imperial capital rose like a cliff, causing many civil engineering projects in the imperial capital to come to a standstill due to the shortage of stone materials.Such a big movement made many noble lords waiting in the imperial capital think that there was another big battle in the Green Empire, so these lords asked around, trying to get a share of the war at the beginning of the war.

In this way, 80 large stone bullets were transported batch by batch to various warehouses in the airport town. These stone bullets came from dozens of quarries. Probably these quarry workshops have never thought about it. , in fact, the buyer of these stone bombs will be the same person.

The female half-orcs in Xinliu Valley have only one job these days, and that is to keep moving the large stone bullets in the warehouse of the airport town to the front line in the southern area of ​​the Black Forest on the Yero plane. Although it was only a few meters apart on the teleportation altar, the huge amount of transportation still made these female half-orcs who had just recovered a little bit too much.

Although the process was very difficult, the group of female half-orcs finally survived.

The Nibru spidermen in the spider camp finally decided to abandon the spider camp No. 12 days after the dryad warriors attacked wildly, and took the remnants of the spiderman army into the marsh sea in front of them.

I saw this scene standing on the shoulder of Elder Dirham, the Ancient War Tree...

Those spider warriors lined up in dozens of long lines, and marched towards the depths of the marsh sea along some shoals with slightly exposed water grass leaves...
