I Created the Myth of the Old Ruler

Fort Black is the real fort.

The exterior is almost made of deep black stones. It is difficult for Lu Jian to tell how many years ago these stones were excavated. Those mottled marks cannot be made by humans. Only monsters can leave such twisted wounds.

The entire fortress is like a huge hemisphere shrouded in the ground, with no sunlight inside, only some small windows for weapons to shoot.

On the top of the hemisphere, sentry towers, high walls, and catapults are dotted all over.

The remains of some buildings can be seen outside the fortress. According to Jonah, this was originally the capital of a country. The spread of the Black Forest destroyed that country. It was not until later that the Black Tower removed the fortress from monsters. Take it back.

Surrounding the black castle, there are as many as five layers of fortifications. Wooden thorns, stone walls, ravines, spikes, and the means that humans can think of to block the movement of monsters are all applied here. Because the monsters of the magic tide are different, these fortifications At least it can block some monsters with entities.

The spell detection covering the entire fortress can detect and limit those monsters without entities in the first place. Lu Jian saw that there were obviously more mages inside the black castle. It seems that as the main defense point, the defense here is more stringent.

"The tide of magic will spread from the west, and the whole area will be shrouded in endless night. What we have to do is to attract the monsters of the tide of magic as much as possible. Beyond the Black Forest."

Before the meal, Jonah explained the details of the battle to Lu Jian and other rangers.

"We have to resist for at least three days. When the tide of magic subsides, we will win if we survive."

"Wait, since Eternal Night will bring darkness, and it is only afraid of sunlight, then we can only wait for death here?"

Lu Jian blurted out.

The other young rangers looked at each other in blank dismay, also a little panicked.

"That's what we're here at Blacksburg."

Jonah pointed to his feet.

"The building of Black Castle has been remodeled, and with the support of a certain number of mages, it can launch a powerful spell, Eternal Blazing Sun. This spell can simulate the sun to a certain extent, and can affect the surrounding area about ten miles away. We attract Eternal Night The arrival of the people, and then casting this spell, will be able to wipe out most of Yong Ye's family members to the greatest extent."

"I see.

"

Lu Jian applauded.

Seeing Lu Jian's actions, the other rangers applauded hesitantly.

"...Put your hands down, ahem, this is just the most ideal situation, if the fortress is breached early, then we have to use spells in advance, and the family members of the eternal night will avoid this fortress, go to Attack the areas outside the Black Forest, and when those areas fall, it is only a matter of time before we are encroached here."

Jonah cleared his throat in embarrassment.

"Don't worry, with the support of the magic light source, it will be very difficult for the family of Eternal Darkness to capture the fortress. All we have to do is to delay time carefully."

He reassured at last.

At dinner time, Lu Jian gorged himself at the dining table.

The food here is broth, meat sauce, mashed potatoes, bread, vegetables, etc. The taste can only be said to be edible, but the weather is too cold, and Lu Yi has a very good appetite. After eating two bowls, he still feels that it is not enough.

"Think about it, if you are eaten by Yongye's family tonight, will you regret not eating more at night?"

Lu Yi looked at the stunned Birmingham and explained.

"It seems to be so reasonable... Then I will have another bowl!"

The young man also took an extra bowl.

The front line has enough food, and Lu Jian is very satisfied.

After the meal, it was the turn of Lu Yi and Birmingham to watch the night, and the two came to the high wall of the fort.

From here, you can see a large forest under the moonlight. Under the cold wind, the trees undulate like waves, and the snow falls to the ground, startling some animals and making the night watchmen even more vigilant.

There are still many night watchmen on the high wall. Through the lights of the sentry tower, you can see that they are all huddled by the stove. The weather is really too cold. If it is not for the report from the observation hub, everyone may really think that the coming magic wave is cold Frost.

Lu Jian looked far away, and [True Vision] brought him good vision. Lu Jian could see that on the other side of the horizon, there seemed to be a forest completely covered by darkness, and even the moonlight shining on it could not cover it. Reflected.

That might be the eternal night that was gradually approaching.

"Tomorrow night at the latest, the demon tide will come."

Jonah's voice came from behind the two of them.

"nervous?"

He asked about Birmingham, because Lu Yi was obviously not nervous at all.

"I will do my best to complete the task."

Birmingham straightened his body.

"Don't be so restrained, we are comrades-in-arms now."

Jonah patted the boy on the shoulder.

"When I experienced the demon tide, I was also very scared. I was afraid that I would be killed by monsters, and that my teammates would die because of my hesitation. I still don't want to recall the memories of those few days."

"But don't worry, this fortress hasn't fallen since it was taken back. Every time it's a bridgehead against the demon tide, there won't be any problems this time."

When Lu Jian heard Jonah's words, he wanted to complain and not stand up casually, but suddenly saw that the people on the guard tower next door seemed to be acting strangely.

The man's companion stood in front of the sentry tower, staring ahead, while he himself sat by the fire, and suddenly drew out the dagger from his waist.

The man didn't attack his teammates, but trembling, trembling, pointed the blade at his own throat.

Lu Jian immediately concretized the [last words], and just as the disruptive bullet was fired, the man's blade pierced his throat.

Lu Jian saw that the other party had a serene smile on his face, and he pulled his hand at the same time.

A large amount of blood spewed out, and it became cold in an instant. The man's companion hurriedly called for help, but everyone knew that there was no way to save him.

Lu Jian and others came to the sentry tower and looked at the corpses that had been carried down.

There was a happy, reassuring, sleeping-like smile on the face of the corpse.

"He resisted just now, as if his body was manipulated."

Lu Jian said, he looked at Jonah, this extraordinary and strange phenomenon, that is, the mage can clearly understand it.

"Is he really like this?"

Jonah had a slightly weird expression on his face.

Before he could explain, he saw the man's companion suddenly draw out his knife.

"No, no..."

His blade moved towards his throat, and he seemed to be resisting some kind of force with all his strength.

Birmingham tried to help, but was immediately stopped by Jonah.

"Don't go there, you will be infected..."

He raised his hand and looked at the terrified ranger.

"It may hurt a little, but at least you can save your life."

Before the ranger could react, Jonah made a fist with his right hand.

Puchi——

The ranger's hands fell as if cut by a sharp blade, and the short knife lost its support and fell to the ground.

"Don't touch him, it's the plague."

Jonah looked serious, and added another sentence.

"The master of the twelfth evil tide, the plague."
