Warhammer in a box

Chapter 349: Occupation of Lothern

On the island of Ulthuan, elite human soldiers and even war machines continued to arrive in Ulthuan via transport ships and warships. Thanks to the efforts of the Dwarves and Humans, key locations throughout the city were occupied one after another.

The double-headed eagle flag began to fly above the walls of Ulthuan, but there were still a considerable number of people in the city who were resisting stubbornly. Those high-elf mages who were proficient in magic would occasionally release spells of destruction on the army, causing casualties.

A small number of the High Elves' top troops, such as the Swordmasters of Hoeth and the Phoenix Guard, were also demonstrating their terrifying strength in the city streets.

The towering streets and buildings leveled the fighting distance between the two sides.

Even the golden soldiers could not gain any advantage in close combat against the martial arts of these high elves who had survived for hundreds or thousands of years.

(Tens of thousands of Phoenix Guards are obviously unrealistic, and I’m not going to write about it here. I feel that this number is too outrageous!)

Street fighting is always the most brutal.

"Sir! The resistance of these high elves is much more intense than we thought. Once the elves in the city streets get close, even a squad of soldiers may not be able to defeat the elves called Phoenix Guard. Almost everyone of them has magic items, which gives them time to get close. With those magic items, I have already lost three platoons of soldiers!
Are we just going to bomb the streets flat?"

"Wait a little longer, Captain. We have reinforcements. The magical items and various books and documents in this city are also important spoils of war. And Captain Montos, is your arm okay?"

"Captain Francis! I can still hold on, by the Emperor. The sword of the High Elf known as the Swordmaster of Hoeth pierced through my bulletproof armor, but I only lost an arm. I heard that the Order is connecting some mechanical limbs to soldiers who are missing limbs, and it is said that it can enhance their combat effectiveness. Now it's good, I can get them directly when I go back. But Captain, how long will the support you mentioned last? The soldiers are fighting, the sooner we get it, the less we will lose!"

"Almost! The priests have almost prepared the equipment!"

As the leader pointed to the instrument that was quickly built along the coastline, the priests pressed the switch, and huge magical fluctuations were generated from it. After a flash of light, thousands of golden-backed lizardmen and Mazdamuni appeared directly on the coastline.

"The reinforcements you're talking about are Lizardmen?!"

"Yes."

Francis walked quickly to Master Ma.

"Hello, respected Shilan. Thank you for your support. The high elves who are holding out in the city may still need you and your people to help."

"Humans, this is not for you, it's all for the Ancient Saints!"

As Master Ma raised his little hand, which was much thinner than his body, and pointed to the city of Lothern, thousands of golden-backed lizardmen roared and rushed into the city. Giant beasts such as giant lizards, horned dragons, and Tyrannosaurus Rex followed closely behind. Master Ma also used his teleportation to look for the high elf magicians who were hiding in the dark and waiting for an opportunity to attack.

The Phoenix Guard and the Swordmaster of Hoeth might be very powerful, and the Goldenback Lizardmen are no match for them in a one-on-one fight. However, the gap in numbers between the two sides is huge. With the help of the hatching pool, the Lizardmen don't feel sorry for their death at all.

After meeting Master Ma, the magicians also realized the gap in magical attainments.

Shilan's magic level is simply not comparable to that of the high elves who claim to be a magical race. If Master Crocker is the biological son of magic, and Master Ma can be said to be the youngest son, then the high elves can only be regarded as an illegitimate child at best.

Master Ma suddenly appeared in front of a high-elf wizard at this time. He used his magic power to press the high-elf wizard to the ground and made him unable to get up.

When the elven wizard saw the appearance of Master Ma, his expression was even more surprised than when he saw the coalition of humans and dwarves attacking them.

"Shilan?! Why?! Why are you here too! We once made an agreement. We have long given up setting foot on Lustria. Isn't it enough that you killed most of the people who came to the island? Aren't you going to stay on that land!!!"

If the Slann are very mysterious to other races, then not to the High Elves. When they once tried to set foot in Lustria, they were warned and attacked by the Slann. Later, when the High Elves learned that this group of powerful creatures lived there, they gave up exploring Lustria.

"It's not that we won't leave. We are following the will of the Ancient Saints! High elves, you are destroying the Great Vortex. You are trying to destroy this world blessed by the Ancient Saints. I will eliminate all threats for the Ancient Saints!"

"What? Ancient Saint?! Who is the Ancient Saint?!"

The wizard was ultimately unable to obtain the answer he wanted, and he soon lost consciousness.

With the joint efforts of the three forces, Lothern, which lacked elite troops and leaders, fell quickly. The stubborn resisters were killed, but the crowd did not kill more civilians or surrendered high elves.

At this time, the only place in Lothern that had not been occupied was the temple where the Holy Fire of Asuryan was stored. All the remaining Phoenix Guards and the remaining noble mage soldiers hid in this temple.

Only a Chaos Demon can barely maintain his body's magic here to protect this temple.

"Your Majesty, Lawn? Do you want to storm here?" the officer asked Lawn.
"Is there a way to break through the magic barrier without destroying the building?"

"We've tried it, but ordinary artillery fire is useless. The only way is to bombard it continuously to overload it, but then we can't guarantee that the buildings inside will not be destroyed."

After listening to his men's reports, Laun asked Shi Lan again. Even Shi Lan could not easily overload the magic barrier. After all, the whirlpool gathered all the excess magic winds in the world, and the total amount of magic power was unmatched even by Shi Lan.

Laun thought about Zhang Heng's request to him not to destroy Asuyan's Holy Fire and had to give up for the time being.

"Fence it off! Don't let anyone in, and don't let anyone out!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, Lawn."

Lilith was witnessing all this from high above the city.

"Shilan? Why? Some ancient saint has also intervened in this war?" In just a short while, Lilith had sensed a conspiracy against the entire high elves and also against him.

"Teclis! My chosen one! Quickly tell Malekith and Teclis the news of the invasion of humans, dwarves and Slann! Otherwise, the high elves will be destroyed in their hands before the end of the reincarnation cycle."

At this time, Teclis, who was luring Tyrion into a trap, also learned the news. He was shocked at the speed of Lothern's fall and realized the importance of this matter.

"Tyrion, my brother, Lothern has been attacked! The humans, dwarves and those guys called Slann have attacked Lothern together. We must give up the war with Malekith and go back to take back Lothern!!"

"No! No! I want to pull out the Sword of Khaine! Only in this way can we save the High Elves!"

Tyrion has completely focused his mind on the sword Cain, and the voice in his heart has been tempting him.

"Damn it, the power of the curse is stronger than I imagined!"

Now Teclis can no longer let Tyrion and Malekith really fight to the point of mutual destruction! He has learned from Lilith how powerful the God-Emperor is. If there is another internal fight, the God-Emperor will be the one to reap the benefits!

As if he had made up his mind, Teclis said directly to Tyrion: "Tyrion! Do you know! I knew from the beginning that Frisara was your daughter, and her death was doomed!"

After hearing what Teclis said, Tyrion's eyes suddenly became fierce.

"Tigris what are you talking about? You know what? Are you deliberately trying to stop me from saving my daughter?!"

Teclis was silent, and Tyrion obviously knew his answer!!
"Teclis!! You killed my daughter!!"

For a moment, Tyrion's anger overwhelmed the effect of Cain's curse on him. Tyrion drew out his flaming sword and killed Teclis directly!

And Tigris fought back without showing any weakness.

The battle between the two directly detonated the entire military camp. Before the other high elves knew what was happening, they saw Tyrion chasing after Teclis!

"Kill everyone! I want to kill Teclis!!"
