Chapter 376 Playing with Fire and Getting Burned (Part 2)
"Crossbows are aimed at the zombies!" Someone shouted.
The magic tower outside the fortress burst out a series of destructive beams, which plowed down like a plow, killing all the rotten corpses along the way.
The next moment, almost all the city defense weapons were firing freely. The area where the series of fireballs, beams and crossbows fell directly exploded into a bloody area, with broken limbs and arms flying, and even the gray fog was dyed bloody.
"Squeak?"
Zhe Yi had just entered the fortress gate when a large stream of light fell down, and the surrounding rotten corpses flew.
"Human, breaking the covenant, despicable."
Zhe Yi was also confused. She roared, blasted several light bombs and crossbows in the air, and rushed towards the soldiers on the city wall with explosive power.
"Buzz~"
On the city wall, a holy beam of light enveloped her figure...
The design of the border fortress is mainly to defend against the rotten corpses outside the fortress, not within the territory.
There were not many defensive measures on the side facing the Bull Territory. Although many magic towers, crossbows and catapults were installed, it was just a gentle breeze and drizzle compared to the outside of the fortress. What's more, Field's army wore uniform border army uniforms and carried flags, so there was very little firepower directed at them.
At this moment, the powerful border fortress was under attack from both inside and outside, and its firepower seemed to be stretched to its limits.
What's more tragic is that the few defenders in the fortress had an internal conflict at this moment.
It seemed that humans were fighting against the corpses, but in fact there were four forces: believers, border troops, wild (rebel) corpses, and Field's army, which became a mess.
Rosaria quickly penetrated into the fortress, found the room controlling the city gate, and saw the human soldiers pouring out of it. She directly used the endless slash to strangle them into minced meat. She was very clear about the situation and had to let all the troops in. She couldn't take the fortress alone.
One by one, the corpses with heavy armor and grades opened the way in front and killed all the resistance forces. Field led the elite troops and arrived at the fortress first, while the main force was still behind.
Rushing into the fortress, Field looked around the chaotic scene inside the fortress and sneered: "No matter how powerful the castle is, it still depends on people to defend it. We have to hurry up and keep up with Rosaria. We must concentrate our strength and control the city gate first."
The gate has begun to descend.
Once closed, people who enter the fortress will have only one way to die.
Rosaria, who knows this well, rushed into the room that controls the gate. Her divine power surged and she kept slashing, smashing the defenders who surrounded her into pieces.
The gluttonous sword was stuck into the groove of the mechanism, and the momentum of the fortress door's descent stopped.
"Kill that monster! We must close the door!"
The fortress defenders were anxious in an instant, and they rushed out from all the passages. The arrows and swords in their hands were like reeds, stabbing and stabbing at random, and from time to time there were mages releasing messy magic, and various mechanical puppets were activated, releasing attacks comparable to fighting skills at Rosaria.
What's even more disgusting is that this fortress was built to fight against the corpses. Most of the weapons are attached with the power of holy light, which is extremely restrained against corrupted creatures.
The power of holy light kept hitting her body. Rosaria had no weapons at this time, so she had to rely on the corrupt dragon claws to support herself.
The Chosen Ones are never invincible. It is difficult to fight back against the continuous attacks. Once the divine power is wiped out, there is only death in battle.
It was not until five minutes later that Field hurriedly brought the elite corpses, suffered a lot of casualties, and killed the guards, and Rosaria was rescued.
Rosaria's corrupt dragon arm was blown up. She supported her fragile body, and blood kept coming out to repair the wound. She climbed up panting, and her weak face was pale. Seeing Field coming, she turned her face away and covered the wound that had not yet been repaired with her sleeve.
"I'm fine, ahem, don't look at me."
Looking at Rosaria, who was covered in wounds, Field hugged her distressedly. If she hadn't attracted countless firepower and defended the room, he wouldn't have been able to rush in.
If it weren't for her abnormal recovery and defense, any other Chosen One would have died.
Most of the two legions of Night's leader entered the fortress, and those who didn't rush in were drowned in the wild corpse tide.
With the addition of the legion, everyone worked together to repel the fortress defenders and city defense puppets and stood firm.
"Boom~"
Drawing out the gluttonous sword, the fortress gate fell, and the wild corpses were locked outside, bearing the bombardment of the city defense firepower alone.
"Okay, don't be affectionate on the battlefield." Pulling out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat, Rosaria recovered, raised her hair elegantly, and she proudly akimbo. "Hehe, you have to reward me when you go back."
"We must arrange everything for the young lady."
Field gave a clear and concise order: "Time is running out, Ophelia, take your legion and kill along the fortress passage. No matter who it is, as long as they are defenders, kill them all."
"Rosaria, let's go take over the command room of the fortress."
Unlike the imagined situation of being resisted, the closer Field got to the command room, the less resistance he encountered.
Until he kicked open the door of the fortress command room and entered the room, he saw two people hacking at each other in the room, and more than ten people were lying on the ground.
"We must activate the life lock and eliminate all the corpses!"
"It's useless. The life lock is already connected to the resurrection array. It's meaningless to activate it!"
Sergeant Andrew stabbed the command knife into the adjutant's chest, groaned twice, spit out a ball of blood foam, and fell to the ground and died.
"What's going on..."
"Internal strife."
In the center of the command room, a huge prismatic magic stone was shining.
Field stepped forward and turned off some of the defensive puppets.
According to the small map, there are several more control rooms like this.
"Huh~ The farce is almost over."
No wonder 3,000 border troops and a border fortress can stop the corruption disaster for ten years. Not to mention that there are several large fortresses behind. Pure White's decision was right. Letting the corpses rush in without thinking is just looking for death.
He almost failed to take it down when attacking from the inside.
You know, he set off a tide of corpses and deceived some of the defenders in advance.
"Let's go, let's go support Xiao Feilong and take a rest after completely controlling the fortress."
It took Field a whole day to completely take down the fortress with the corpse army to continue to eliminate the resistance in the castle.
The newly armed corpse army was almost annihilated, either dying at the hands of the city defense puppets or fighting to the death with the rebel corpses.
"My lord, I actually found Broken Wing." Ofili ran over excitedly, "She is in the north gate city wall. She is dead. The rebels probably thought she was attacking and killed her."
"Let's go and have a look."
Field came to the north gate city wall. The city wall was covered with a meter-thick layer of corpses. Broken Wing had turned into charcoal. She knelt in the center of the city wall. The artifact slowly emerged from her body, proving that she was dead and had not even achieved dissociation.
