Game of the World Tree - Chapter 358

358. Chapter 356 Ulla——!

The Dark Alliance’s attack horn sounded, and the City of Sharp Blades was like a huge war machine, slowly running from the inside out, switching to a wartime state.

The entire city was instantly shrouded in a tense atmosphere.

The residents scattered and left. Those below the Iron rank returned to their homes and hid, while those above the Iron rank carried bags of supplies and spontaneously formed civilians to support the war.

The current chief of the Council of Elders, Brin, accompanied by soldiers, followed the torrent of players to the city wall.

As the current supreme ruler of the City of Sharp Blades, he must also shoulder the responsibility of command.

However, the dark dwarf Firebeard did not choose to leave, but returned to the Death God Temple in the City of Sharp Blades, and activated the dungeon defense core in the eyes of the Death God priests who seemed to be relieved…

Although other people can do this job, the previous sieges have proved that it is better for Firebeard, a favored one, to operate.

With Huoxu’s control, the power of faith stored in the temple instantly activated the defense system, and the dark gray energy was divided into two directions, upper and lower, and spread out with the temple as the center.

Among them, one energy followed the ground and quickly covered the entire wall of the City of Blades; while the other rushed up to the sky, covering the dome of the cave, and buckled the entire City of Blades like an inverted bowl.

This is the same method used by Black Rock City to defend against the shadow army. It is a large-scale divine defense barrier with a coverage area comparable to that of forbidden spells.

However, if you look closely, you will find that this divine defense barrier is not closed, but has a gap in the wall.

There is no way…

If it is completely closed, the consumption of the power of faith will increase several times, and the remaining power of the entire temple will definitely not be able to last too long.

Therefore… the divine barrier can only cover the areas on the ground and underground that are most likely to be attacked, and at the same time leave a section above the wall empty as a battlefield for fighting the enemy.

And this area is also the main source of casualties of the Silent Alliance army in the previous few times.

In the underground world full of climbing beasts and monsters, the role of the city walls is far less than that of the surface. Their value is only to choose the battle on the city walls.

At this moment, the dark dwarf warriors and underground dwarf mages have already stood on the city walls. While preparing various remote machines to fight against the army, they are generally looking nervously at the bottom of the city walls.

The dark city-state alliance army composed of monsters, dark dwarves, mind suckers, undead and goblins has gradually surrounded them…

Looking around, all you can see is a dark mass.

And with the vibrations brought by the march of the army, and the roars and screams of monsters that constantly echo in the cave… The army of the dark alliance seems more oppressive and more terrifying in the already dim underground world.

Some soldiers of the City of Blades have changed their faces slightly, because they noticed that the scale of the enemy’s attack this time is even larger than the previous ones.

This is exactly the case… After several days of siege, the Dark Alliance has almost figured out the strength of the City of Blades. Under the order of the Lich King Perronie, the army has decided to take down the bridgehead of the Silent Alliance in one fell swoop.

The army that rushed to the front was composed of goblins. They were poorly equipped and numerous. Under the threat of the death knights behind them, they carried ladders and rushed towards the city wall with a roar…

They were cannon fodder and also the vanguard.

“It’s goblins! Get ready to shoot!”

Seeing the “sea” of goblins rushing up, the dwarf soldiers on the city wall looked solemn. They raised their bows and arrows and shot them in unison.

With the sound of whooshing, thousands of arrows fell into the sea of goblins like rain, and in the blink of an eye, a large number of these weak creatures fell.

However… there were too many goblins.

Driven by the commander of the Dark Alliance army, they rushed forward with red eyes, wielding poor quality swords, carrying crude ladders, or raising short bows while shooting back at the city wall.

The dwarf steam cannons placed on the city wall made loud noises, and huge steel balls shot at the goblin army, smashing the unfortunate guys into pulp.

However, no matter how many casualties there were, these goblins did not retreat a step.

This is the sadness of the weak. As one of the affiliated races of the Dark Alliance, the mind suckers and dark dwarves raised goblins to be cannon fodder.

If they did not fight hard, they would also die, and their own tribe would be implicated.

After paying a huge price in casualties, these goblins successfully came to the bottom of the city wall, and under the magic bombardment of the underground dwarf wizard, they desperately set up the ladder and began to climb up…

The hand-to-hand combat officially began.

The dwarf warriors roared, waving their axes and hammers, splitting the goblins that climbed up in half or hammering them into a pool of meat.

The goblins were either panicked or screaming like crazy, but whether they were afraid, panicked, or like chicken blood, all the goblins who climbed the city wall did not choose to retreat, but waved their weapons and chopped at the dwarf warriors.

Maybe the goblins were not strong in general, most of them were less than level 10, but their locust-like numbers were enough to drown any dwarf warrior…

Curses, screams, groans, the sound of arrows breaking through the air, the sound of swords and axes piercing bones, mixed together, rendering the city wall into a hellish scene.

In fact, because the battle line of the city wall was too long and there were too many goblins, the warriors of the Silent Alliance soon fell into the siege of the goblins.

Wounds began to appear on their bodies one after another, and the axes in their hands began to curl with each chop, and their breathing became heavier.

However, at this moment, they suddenly heard shouts of killing coming from behind…

“Kill! For the elves! Uh, no, for the friendship of the Silent City-State!”

“Charge! Comrades!”

“Ura–!”

Accompanied by excited shouts, one tall figure after another rushed to the city wall.

They were men and women, some wearing gorgeous armor and robes, and some wearing modified Blade City standard equipment. Like a torrent or a sharp knife, they rushed into the fighting goblins and the soldiers of the Silent Alliance.

“Fuck! So we are going to fight goblins! There are so many of them!”

“Haha! This is what I am best at!”

They laughed loudly, with ferocious faces, and chopped down the goblins one by one like cutting melons and vegetables, and consciously began to drive them away.

The goblins were startled by the sudden joining of the enemy.

They soon fell into chaos, subconsciously dodged, and began to huddle together.

However, these guys who just gathered were quickly burned to ashes by fireballs or pierced into sieves by ice blades amidst the ups and downs of spells…

And the elves’ skilled movements, the accuracy of their swords hitting the opponent’s weaknesses, and the perfect “slaughter-intimidation-expel-magic solution” one-stop service, as if they were specialized in this…

“Elves… Elves?”

Seeing the players who suddenly rushed up the wall and started to kill crazily, the dark dwarves and deep gnomes were stunned.
