Warlord of Chaos Chapter 378: Never back down

On the top of Yehliu City, the elves on duty are still patrolling and shuttling as in the past, walking leisurely, and they don't forget to say hello or make a joke when they pass by their companions.

It has been a long time since anyone dared to attack Yehliu City beyond their limits, so much so that these patrolling elves have regarded patrolling as a routine.

Suddenly, the ground trembled slightly, and all the elves felt the strangeness, and at the same time cast their gazes into the distance.

At the end of the horizon, smoke and dust rose up all over the sky, as if there were countless beasts running wildly in it. After a while, as the smoke continued to advance, the elves with good eyesight could see figures flashing in the smoke several times, and they turned out to be orc warriors riding Galewind wolves!

Haven't you already formed an alliance with the orcs? How should I explain the scene in front of me? Looking at the murderous look, even the most stupid elves would not think that those orcs came with good intentions.

"Enemy attack!!" An elf yelled hoarsely, and rang the alarm bell beside him. into a ball.

A few minutes later, the tenth-rank ranger Athena stood at the top of the city, looking calmly at the approaching orc troops from a distance. She is the strongest in Yehliu City right now. The expansion of the elves this time can be said to be done without reservation, so that there are only more than a thousand elves left in Yehliu City, and not all of them are combatants.

A tenth-level ranger, leading less than a thousand elf warriors, is like a small boat in a vast ocean compared to the menacing orc army, which will be destroyed at any time no matter how you look at it .

But Athena, who had followed Lydia through life and death for decades, did not show the slightest fear. Seeing Athena's calm expression, the flustered elf warriors gradually calmed down. Although they were not strong enough to pass the illusion test, they had enough courage to fight.

What's more, every elf firmly believes that Yehliu City under their feet is indestructible.

Following Athena's order, the elf warriors quickly hid behind the city wall, and a sharp arrow protruded out from the gap in the vines wrapping the city wall, like a beast that only chooses and devours people.

The orc army was getting closer, and thousands of orc warriors riding Galewolves were rushing all the way. Athena could even see the blood stains on the weapons that the orcs were waving.

Then, Athena's eyes suddenly froze, and her pupils shrank suddenly. Behind the orc warriors, more than a dozen burly figures with a height of more than five meters appeared. Every time they took a step, they crossed the At a distance of five or six meters, the wide soles of their feet hit the ground, making a muffled sound. These giants were able to keep up with the Gale Wolf's footsteps with only two legs. Each of them held a frighteningly large stone.

Hill giant! It turned out to be a hill giant! Although Athena controlled her facial expressions very well, she couldn't suppress the shock deep in her heart.

In the orc system, the hill giants are second only to the behemoths. This refers to their combat effectiveness and has nothing to do with IQ. Especially in siege battles, maybe the shamans can't do anything looking at the high city walls, but the hill giants can rely on their natural strength to destroy those seemingly indestructible city defenses with the stones in their hands .

It can be said that Athena did not pay attention to the thousands of orc warriors before, because no matter how high the Gale Wolf jumped, he could not cross the tall city wall of Yeliu City, and it was not a city wall in the ordinary sense. Many intruders who tried to climb over it left their lives under this green vine.

However, the appearance of the hill giant made Athena's confidence begin to shake, but things had reached this point, and she could no longer take a step back. Keep an eye on those hill giants, and if you want to keep Yehliu City, the top priority is to shoot and kill these guys with unparalleled powerful long-range attack capabilities.

The orc troops charged very fast. When they were more than 500 meters away from Yehliu City, a hill giant suddenly threw a stone in his hand, followed by a roar like thunder, and the stone moved in an unimaginable manner. The speed flew straight over with the sound of wind and thunder.

With a loud bang, the stone smashed heavily on the city wall, and immediately burst into large and small pieces, flying in all directions. The vines near the stone fell were also dented, and the chaotic branches and leaves splashed all over the sky. Athena could clearly feel the ground under her feet tremble.

The orc warriors immediately cheered, screaming and waving the weapons in their hands. Greedy and **** eyes appeared in the eyes of every orc. Yehliu City was not just a city to them, it also meant Endless wealth and women.

Of course, the city wall of Yehliu City could not be destroyed by this blow. The vines grew extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, the green barrier returned to its original state, and it was impossible to tell that it had been attacked just now.

But Athena knew very clearly even if she didn't look at it, there must have been a huge dent on the brick wall, so the violent attack couldn't be blocked by just relying on vines.

The elf warriors watched Athena nervously, waiting for the order to attack. Insufficient strength does not mean ignorance. All the elves present knew that if such attacks were allowed to continue, the collapse of the city wall would only be a matter of time. .

At this time, the front of the orc army was less than 400 meters away from Yehliu City, which happened to be the limit distance for ordinary elf archers to deal damage. A round of volleys would bring down at least a hundred orc warriors.

But Athena didn't seem to see the anxious eyes around her, she just stood there quietly, as if she was waiting for something.

"My lord, are you still giving orders?" A male elf beside Athena couldn't bear it and asked.

"Wait a little longer." Athena never left the eyes of those hill giants, calculating the distance silently in her heart.

Another hill giant threw a stone in his hand, which looked exactly the same as the previous attack. And broken branches, the green barrier still silently filled the destroyed gap.

The most important thing is that Athena noticed that the landing points of the two attacks were exactly the same! A trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, when did these simple-minded mountain giants become so smart?

If things go on like this, maybe even the time she expected won't last, Athena slowly raised her right hand while thinking.

Finally, when the third hill giant raised the stone in his hand, Athena slashed down fiercely with her hand: "Target, hill giant!"

Thousands of arrows left the bowstring and roared like a storm, enveloping the dozen or so hill giants in an instant.

At the same time, Athena pulled out a small and exquisite dark red arrow from the quiver like lightning, raised her hand and shot it.

Facing the oncoming rain of arrows, the hill giant with a stone in his hand blocked most of his body with just one lift of the stone, while those without stones crossed their arms to block them to avoid being shot in the face and chest. As for other parts of the body, they don't care at all, the orcs are never afraid of getting hurt.

The hill giant who was about to throw the stone in his hand was no exception. He also blocked the stone in front of him. This was their best and only way to deal with long-range attacks.

The arrows hit the rocks and made a crisp snapping sound. After all, not every elf has outstanding strength. If they could shoot through the huge rocks, they might have already set out with the large army instead of stay here.

At the same time, there was the sound of arrows piercing into the body. Although the stones were big enough, they could not block their entire bodies behind. When they reached a very shallow position, they were unable to advance further. To the giants, this injury was like being bitten by a bug. Although the pain was painful, it did not affect their combat effectiveness at all.

A lot of things have a good side and a bad side at the same time.

The stone in the hands of the giants performed its mission very well, blocking countless arrows for the giants, but at the same time it also blocked the sight of the giants.

At the moment when the rain of arrows was about to fall, a small red light shot towards him, and the huge stone suddenly became fragile in front of this small red light. The red glow effortlessly sank into the rock, and pierced out from the other side. The giant behind the rock only had time to feel a pain between his brows, and then all consciousness had gone away from him.

It wasn't until the red light came out from the back of the giant's head that the momentum slowed down, allowing people to see clearly that it was a small dark red arrow.

The orc warriors shouted angrily, controlling the Gale Wolf beneath them to speed up, and the hill giants also raised the boulders in their hands one after another in a furious gesture of throwing them.

Athena on the city wall lowered the bow in her hand, her face was a little tired, but when she saw the reaction of the orcs, a gleam of joy flashed in her eyes. This effect is what she wants, as long as those hill giants don't Gather the attack points in one place, then she is confident that she can hold for a long time. As for what to do after defending, she didn't know, she only knew that she had to defend the city wall under her feet, no matter it was blood or life, she had to firmly defend it.

"I'll leave it to you." This is what Lydia said to her before she left.

But Athena, who had never stood alone, clearly felt an invisible burden on her at that moment, and the simple four words were always lingering in Athena's mind , lingering for a long time.

Leave it to me, Athena tightly grasped the bow in her hand, and showed the savages on the opposite side, what an unforgivable crime they have committed.

At this time, a desolate and low-pitched horn sounded suddenly on the battlefield. The rushing orc warriors slowed down in unison. Still extremely angry, but none of the giants attacked again.

The sound of the horn suddenly changed and became louder, and then an incredible scene appeared. The orc warriors who were notorious for rampaging on the battlefield and chaotically retreated neatly, as if they were a well-trained army. army.

When the orcs stopped, Athena's complexion changed. Based on her precise visual inspection of a tenth-level ranger, the orcs were standing not too far away from Yehliu City, exactly 600 meters away.

The formation of the orc troops remained unchanged, with warriors at the front and giants at the back. But Athena knew very well that this meant that the arrows of her elf warriors could no longer cause effective damage to the orcs.

But for the hill giants, this distance is not the limit.

A hill giant threw a boulder in his hand, and the stone hit the city wall in a parabola, then the second, third...

Obviously, this throwing method does not conform to the usual style of the hill giants, resulting in much lower accuracy. The force smashed heavily on the city wall.

Sometimes even the stones hit the top of the city directly and bounced around on the ground. This kind of irregular rolling caught the elves by surprise. In a short period of time, more than a dozen elves had their arms and legs broken. , That is, directly lost life.

Four hundred meters away, behind the orc troop, a group of figures running back and forth appeared, continuously sending boulders to the hill giants. It seemed that they planned to keep throwing stones within this distance block, until the moment the wall collapsed.

Is this the wisdom that the orcs should have? But at this time, there was no time to think too much, Athena suppressed her surprise, drew another dark red arrow, and slowly pulled the bowstring.

With a whoosh sound, the arrow flew out of the string, turning into a faint red light and flying away. The target of this arrow was still the eyebrow of a hill giant.

A soldier in front of the orc battle suddenly leaped high from the Gale Wolf, waved the weapon in his hand to meet Hongmang, and after a loud explosion, Hongmang smashed the weapon in the orc's hand without any speed. Subtracted shot to the predetermined position.

Under Athena's astonished eyes, another orc warrior jumped into the air without thinking about his own body. Perhaps it was too late to attack with his weapon, this orc directly blocked the red glow with his body.

Even huge rocks can't stop the red light's spurt, no matter how solid the orc's body is, it is vulnerable to the seemingly invincible red light. The orc was pierced by the red light without any suspense, and a puddle of blood burst out behind him.

The hill giant locked by Athena just blocked the stone in his hand at this time. God gave them unparalleled strength, but did not give them the matching reaction speed. For this kind of high-level shooter He had no other way but to resist the sniper attack.

Hongmang passed through two obstacles, and his speed has slowed down a bit. Although he still shot into the rock, he no longer had the strength to break out of the rock and shoot the hill giant hiding behind the rock.

The hill giant slowly lowered the stone, revealing his big ugly face, and found that he was not harmed at all, so he couldn't help grinning.

The orc warriors were abruptly quiet for a few seconds, and then burst into bursts of wild shouts of excitement. Of course they deserve to be excited. The most troublesome thing for the orcs has always been the sniping of the high-level elves. This time they successfully saved a hill giant from the arrows of the high-level elves. They are really proud of them. As for the companion who died just now, it seems a bit irrelevant. How can an ordinary orc warrior be compared with a hill giant?

After shooting the second arrow, Athena's face was pale, as if all the strength in her body had been exhausted, but she still stood there straight~IndoMTL.com~ Only the sweat dripping from her forehead betrayed her quietly exhausted.

"My lord, go down and rest for a while, it looks like nothing will happen in a short time." The male elf beside Athena whispered.

Athena shook her head stubbornly, "Wilpner, the moment I stood here, I already had this realization, either I will stand until I win, or I will die here. "

The male elf named Wilpna sighed, and stood a little forward secretly, so that he would have enough time to block Athena in time when the stone fell.

Of course Athena saw Wilpna's small movements beside her, her lips moved, but she didn't say anything in the end. She knew exactly what this subordinate was thinking, and she hadn't made it clear all this time because she was afraid of embarrassing him, and now there was no need to make it clear. Judging from the current situation, if there is no reinforcements, the city will be destroyed sooner or later. Since death is not far away, let him do what he wants to do.

The chaotic boulders bombarded the city wall piece by piece, and the green barrier was also tirelessly repairing the damaged parts, but the wall under the vines had already begun to become mottled, and cracks even appeared in serious places .

Athena stood there quietly, waiting for her physical strength to recover, her gaze never leaving those hill giants, even at the last moment, I will fight to the end, Yehliu City never lacks the courage to face death courage. What's more, it's not the time of despair yet, the ancient tree of life guards Yehliu City! The tree of life in the ordinary sense, which is far more powerful than those grown from the seeds of life, really can't be done, she will choose to die with all the enemies without hesitation!
