The Journey of the Demon Hunter

Without the command of the knight, most of the farmers who were called up not long ago escaped, and some did not. They came back to shoot with bows and arrows under the drive of the knight, but they saw Zelin shooting them in mid-air with arrows. After the cut, the remaining people also threw down their bows and arrows and fled.

A man wanted to pull the demon hunter off the horse from behind. Zelin returned his hand and chopped a sword. The man covered his face, walked two steps staggeringly, and fell to the side filled with fruit and wine bottles. Among the piles of boxes, the apples inside rolled to the ground.

The horses kept jumping, and Zelin pulled the reins to urge the horses to jump up the steps and ran in the direction of Reso. The viper school demon hunter hacked several enemies in front of him. The corpses of three knights were spread on the ground. A fat guy hid in a corner of the courtyard and shivered. The priest's robe of the eternal fire was all red and black. He looked at everything that happened here in disbelief, and he couldn't believe that the headquarters of the Knight Order would actually be attacked.

The sudden sound of horseshoes rang twice on Zelin's right side, and the two knights rushed towards the demon hunter, waving their sharp blades in their hands. Zelin pulled out the ebony blade from his waist and touched it twice.The two knights and Zelin passed by.The knight on the right hand fell from the horse without saying a word, and the other knight looked at his hand in an incredible manner. Now only half of the sword, the knight sword, is left, and the upper half of the blade is neatly chopped off. Afterwards, he threw down the broken sword and urged the horse to rush out of the castle gate and escape into the night.

"Where is Fret?"

Zelin rushed to the steps, rolled over and got off the horse. Losing the suppression of the power of the French and Indian, the horse ran away frantically. Reso pushed the door hard, only to find that the gate of the castle was blocked by a bolt from behind.

"This coward is hiding behind the door. He and his cronies." The bodies of several knights were lying around. After these knights were knocked down, the farmer who had been recruited to guard at the gate of the castle threw away his spear and fled. Zelin didn't deal with his thoughts. Not only were these things unnecessary, he had even more important goals.

"We can blow the door open. How many bombs do you have?" Resso raised his hand and made an Alderfayin gesture, but the metal gate was decorated with anti-magical metal frames, and the Frenchyin did not work. "I hope your attack plan There is plan B in it."

"Of course." Zelin raised his head. The scale of the castle was much larger than that of the Demon Hunters, and the metal gate blocked them well. It is obviously unrealistic to use the special bomb of the Demon Hunter to deal with the gate, unless he can have more explosives and gunpowder. This castle has been around for a long time, and the wall creeper, which has grown up from nowhere, has dyed large tracts of exterior walls green.

There are some hidden shooting holes in the castle, and there are also wooden boards that are artificially erected to connect with several other high towers on the wall of the headquarters, so that the soldiers in the castle can support those towers at any time. The size of the Knights’ headquarters can accommodate at least a thousand defenders, but now there are only a few dozen conscripts and a dozen knights. They sent out most of their forces. Who would have thought that when a group of mutants was wiped out, there would be a counterattack

"Wait here for a while, and I will open the door immediately."

Resso watched Zelin walk along the bumps on the outer wall all the way, and climbed along the outer wall to outside a shutter on the second floor.

"Do you still want to show me acrobatics? How about blowing a whistle to summon a dragon to come and burn it here?"

"I also want to know who can have such acrobatics." Zelin grabbed the outside railing of the shutters. After the vine pattern carved out of wood was chopped up by the ebony blade, the figure of the demon hunter disappeared in the castle.

Resso shook his head. He turned his back to the gate and looked at the castle courtyard. The burning fire light turned the headquarters of the Knights in the dark red, and the thick smoke of the flame almost obscured the moonlight.

Chapter 655: Introduction to the New Era

For a dwarf, there is no difference between the demon hunter and the elves and humans in their eyes.

They are all people who can do business, none of them are dwarves. Not even as much as halflings with long hair and big soles or goblins and dwarves that have more similarities. The life span of human beings is much shorter than that of humans, and shorter than that of dwarves. Of course, this is meaningless, whether it is a human war or a war between humans and elves.

Occupying the entire canyon area under the Hakan Mountains, they did not dare to act rashly, Mahakam was solid. There are abundant coal, iron ore, and other inexhaustible resources. There are also the most advanced smelting technology, iron forging, steelmaking and other metallurgy, and there are many blast furnaces everywhere. Not to mention those water-powered steam hammers and large bellows. Both the northern countries and the southern empire need metal, armor and weapons produced by Nilfgard. As long as Mahakam stops forging, half of the soldiers will have to wear common clothes with wooden sticks and stones on the battlefield.

Hobart, the dwarf who worked for the elder Hogg was looking at everything in front of him on the hillside far away from the castle. Elder Hogg must know what is happening in the Mahakam Mountains. But now, what happened here seemed a little different from what the dwarf elders expected.

Hundreds of soldiers, as well as so many knights, equipped with siege equipment to deal with a castle with less than ten defenders, even in Mahakam’s strongest fortress, ten of the most elite and combatants. No dwarf warrior could say that he relied on the castle to defend the siege of hundreds of people. And this castle still doesn't have any counter-attack tools like ballistas and catapults.

Observing this battle was originally a very easy job. Hobart had already thought about it. When it was over, he returned to report, and it was estimated that he would be able to catch up with dinner that day. It is estimated that he can eat a meal of stew and drink the rare fish soup in the mountains. Elder Hogg is always very generous to those who work for him.

But now it seems that stew and fish soup can only exist in his dreams.

The roar quickly shook the aroma of the stew from his mind. Although it was far away, the roar still made Hobart plug his ears. He saw that when the fire came on from the tower of the castle, there would be a mass of mud blown up below, sometimes with the remains of knights and soldiers. The soldiers held statues and shields made of anti-magical metal, but firelight still continuously emerged from under their feet, as if the anti-magical metals were fake.

Maybe it's fake.

Hobart took a sip, but this is good news for Mahakam. After this news spreads, the metal business in the Dragon Mountains will definitely be affected.

The influence of anti-magic metals on the magic of chaos is obvious to all. Since these metals have no effect on magic, I am sure that these metals are not real magic gold.

Rubbing his nose, Hobart continued to look at the situation below. The attacking humans were almost crushed on the mountain road and could not get close to the castle. Even if someone tried to forcefully rush over, they would be hit by a few crossbow arrows. Some soldiers were holding shields, but their end was The castle gate was struck by a burst of lightning and turned into a pile of coke. There was a witch cooperating with a demon hunter, and this rumor now seems to be true.

The expected fierce scene did not happen. I thought that there would be a fierce battle on the wall, or after a trap, the two sides met hand in hand. The demon hunter would place some roadblocks to prevent the knights from approaching. Of course, the final result was a reservation. Okay. It's just that the knight who thought he was determined to win now was lying on the ground, looking like he was about to be buried in the dust. Not to mention the soldiers, Hobart has seen many soldiers secretly throwing away their weapons and fleeing when the nearby knights did not notice.

"It's really miserable to be scammed by profiteers."

While watching the development below, the dwarf cautiously lit his pipe on fire. You can't smoke during the reconnaissance mission, but this mission is really not challenging.

In the chaos below, several knights could still be heard yelling loudly.

"Push the ballista over, hurry up!"

No one knew what was going on. At first, it was only an intermittent explosion, and the sound was not fast. This may be just one of the trivial counterattacks of the mutant monsters. They may also hope that they can rely on some sounds to bring these eternal fire's devout followers and knights The middle force scared away. Only then, everything began to become bizarre, beyond their understanding. Flames kept coming out of these places that should be absolutely safe. The places where the anti-magic metal swept should not leave any magic, but the unnaturally generated flames really burned on them.

The evil witch must have made a deal with the devil.

The artillery attack speed is not fast, to be precise, it is very slow, but not everyone has the guts to rush forward, especially after every few steps may be scorched by the flames that suddenly rise, most people are reluctant to continue walking Go up the mountain road full of dead bodies.

But as long as the city gates can be blasted open with a crossbow, the remaining knights can inspire the soldiers to rush in and kill all the monsters inside. Burn this wicked place clean. The ballista was transported from the headquarters of the Knights, and it was covered with armor made of anti-magical metal blocks, designed to deal with the lairs of these freaks. Although this is the first time I have used it, I believe there will be more opportunities to use it in the future.

"Quick push, quick!"

A shot of artillery hit the side of the ballista car, not hitting anyone but only hitting some rocks and branches. Upon seeing this, someone cheered.

"Eternal fire bless us! The weapons of those monsters can't hit us!"

"Hey, did you hear that, human? The people below are laughing at your hit."

On the tower of the city wall, Faruda and two other professors were sitting cross-legged on the ground. Tordiv was using the flames to keep writing on the draft, and the noisy people outside did not affect them at all.

"I think it must be improved." George patted the dust on his hands. "Oh, I have to try again, maybe..."

"Leave it to me, human." Faruda stood up, and a soldier's arrows passed by, but under Tordiff's stone armor technique, these arrows hit them really and hit them. There is no difference in the stone. "They believe that a certain metal can fight magic? Well, I want them to look at my spells and try to see if their metal can fight my destruction magic."

George glanced at the soldier underneath, then at Farauda, ​​whose hands were facing each other, and sighed.

"I hope Kerviel's Demon King Merchant will not lose too badly."

Chapter 656 The Horizon

But regardless of whether the merchants and mining chambers will lose their money, it is certain that the White Rose Knights have been difficult to rebuild again, at least there is no way to rebuild it in the name of White Rose.

"Are the two monsters gone?"

Hidden in the castle, as the eternal fire messenger stationed at the headquarters of the White Rose Knights, shivered and looked towards the closed castle gate, as if behind the gate were not two demon hunters, but a giant beast trying to knock the door open. , Always ready to reach into his head and eat all the people who are still alive in the castle. Maybe this door can't stop the demon hunters, they will tear open the metal door with their bare hands. These are all monsters.

"No, definitely not yet."

There was still blood on Fret who had escaped into the castle, but it was not his blood or the blood of the enemy.

"Block the door, hurry, hurry! Move all the seats over to me, they can't make it through!"

There was the sound of dragging furniture everywhere in the castle. Round wooden chairs, long benches and a wooden cabinet were all pulled out of the castle room. They put the long banquet table in the lobby against the door and the chairs. "Go upstairs and kick off the planks along with the surrounding towers. Don't let them find a way to get in!" The chief of the knight commanded the cronies who fled in with him. "Hurry up! Move quickly!"

This castle no longer knows how long no one has moved furniture like this. Someone coughed from the splashed dust. The silver candlestick was knocked to the ground in a panic, but no one paid attention. Compared with life, these The value is nothing.

Originally there were hundreds of knights and hundreds of fully armed soldiers in the castle, and farmers could be recruited from nearby villages to serve at any time, but now, most of the soldiers have been sent to the floating port, and more than half of the knights are in the war. At that time, they found a reason to retreat, not to mention that almost all those who could fight were sent to the Pontar Valley. If it weren't for the problem of the Eternal Fire church, how could they have let the guards of the headquarters leave the castle.

Their behavior today will definitely arouse dissatisfaction from the king, so they need the help of the church and all aspects of support. This was originally a good opportunity for the church to show their strength and let them invest more funds and support for the Knights. Otherwise, how could the castle guarded by hundreds of soldiers be rushed in by two mutants.

"We need help, captain, get your soldiers and knights back quickly, hurry up!"

The fat on the face of the obese missionary trembled, not knowing whether it was because of the excitement or fear when he spoke.

"Just five days ago, your Excellency you urged me to send out all the knights and soldiers to clear a small mutant lair." Frette poked the priest's shoulder with an iron gloved finger, wickedly evil "Now, if it weren't for what you said, if you don't do what you said, you have to write to tell the church to reduce the financial support for the Knights. How can I not leave the necessary defenders in the castle!"
