Mount & Blade: Wind of War

In the relatively intact meeting room, the senior officials of Lonely Mountain Castle gradually gathered.

The first person Rhodes asked was Atiman.

"Atiman, how powerful is the giant magic cannon you are responsible for making? Can it be used to resist the dragon's attack on the city?"

"If the dragon stays there without hiding and using magic defense, it can definitely cause damage to it, but it is obviously difficult to achieve." Atiman answered the Duke's question.

"Can we pretend to surrender, then use wealth to bring the dragon into the city lord's mansion, cover the ground with magic crystals, and then kill it with a giant cannon?"

Airen suggested that relying on external forces as much as possible is also a very ideal suggestion.

"First, the wisdom of dragons is not low, and they are even smarter than most people. Second, the Hell Dragon comes from the lower plane. I am afraid that it knows more about the induction and energy properties of magic crystals than we do. I think the chance of success is not great if we want to use this method to plot secretly."

Yamila shook her head and smiled bitterly, rejecting Airen's proposal.

"Isn't there a dragon-killing crossbow in ancient legends? Atiman, you are a top-notch engineer in the world, can you make one?" Caitlin, who was wearing a gray robe, asked.

"You said it yourself that it was a legendary thing. Since dragons have disappeared for a long time, the blueprints of the Dragon Slayer Crossbow have long been lost. The most important thing is that even if I have the blueprints, I can't make it because the core material of the Dragon Slayer Crossbow is dragon tendons!"

"What Airen said before, using wealth to bring the black dragon into the City Lord's Mansion, is not wrong. The combat effectiveness of a giant dragon that cannot fly is at least reduced by five levels, and the survivability is reduced by 80%. Moreover, with the pride of the dragon clan, as long as we do enough foreplay, there is no worry that it will not come in."

"But after it comes in, it is hard to say whether we can strangle it. Bombarding the City Lord's Mansion is also a necessary option. At this time, we should spare no cost and leave no room."

At this moment, Rhodes was also very pleased with the unity of the people. Everyone knew that the future was difficult, but no one said anything discouraging. Everyone was trying their best to find a way to save the Lonely Mountain Castle and the home that everyone owned.

This made Rhodes, who had been ready to boost everyone's morale, unable to say anything inspiring.

"Sir, can you still use your summoning map?" Fatis asked. Normally, he would never ask such a question to the lord he was loyal to.

"It can be used once more, but although the Abyss Eight-armed Snake Demon is strong, it may not dare to swing its sword at the Hell Dragon, and it is difficult to control..."

"Please give me the summoning map. With the help of the Mage Tower, I am sure that the Eight-armed Snake Demon will fall into a short-term frenzy, but after completing this spell, I will not be able to do anything else in a short time. It will be difficult to help in the next battle." Caitlin said.

"Fortunately, there are still two months. Within two months, I will definitely break through the fifth-level legendary realm. My Lord Duke, it is the pride of Fatis to meet you and serve you. Please, defend this town and don't let our human race become slaves of foreign races again in this wasteland."

Suddenly, Knight Fatis half-knelt on the ground, saluted Rhodes and said this, then he turned around and walked out after getting up.

In two months, Fatis was desperate to break through the legendary realm. He could have achieved the breakthrough by practicing step by step, and the long life of the fifth-level legend was right in front of him, but this guy chose to fight to the death for a group of civilians who had almost nothing to do with him.

Rod Hart was not a good person. He had almost all the insidiousness, cunningness, greed and viciousness of the nobles.

When he attacked and killed Gunnarsser, he used the slave trader cavalry to death. After the surprise attack on the city of sin, he let Janice, who had a blood feud with the wasteland thieves, be the city lord, killing people everywhere and blood flowing like a river. Enslaving foreign races, and even enslaving the human race who defected to him in the later period.

Fatis saw all of this, and he could figure out what was going on. Even if he couldn't figure it out at the time, he would be able to figure it out after a long time.

However, Fatis had no choice. He had wandered and seen many things in this world. He knew that his passion and excellent swordsmanship could not save many people. But he still had ambitions. He hoped that more people in this world could live a better life, rather than just being a swordsman with a clear conscience.

In this process, he met Rhodes, a guy who was originally a small lord of the northern border. This man had experience, knowledge, ambition and talent far beyond most nobles. The most important thing was that he had divine power and amazing luck.

When he was still a small lord of the northern border, he already had talents with great potential such as Raymond and Cress under his command. After Rhodes plotted to take advantage of Arlos, take down the mountain fortress and build the lonely mountain castle, Fatis was sure that this man could make the sword in his hand prove greater life value. This man had far more talent and viciousness than himself. He could lead hundreds of thousands or even more human beings to live better in this wasteland, and even live better day by day.

"I will be the sword in your hand. I have no thoughts and no hesitation. No matter what stands in front of you is a dragon or a demon, I will tear it apart for you!"

"Hundreds of thousands of people! Hundreds of thousands of people! Fatis, the time for you to prove your knighthood has finally come."

[Your growth hero Fatis enters an abnormal state, and the temporary characteristic is added: Determination to Death. ]

[Special hero characteristic Determination to Death, in order to practice his own path, he begins to burn his own physical and mental potential. In the burning state, all attributes are improved, all characteristics are improved, and the attack power is greatly improved. However, after leaving the state of determination to death, all damage received in the process will be doubled. ]

"Damn, Fatis, we don't have to be so serious. I can just take you away..." As soon as Rhodes saw the system prompt, the words were on the tip of his tongue, but he swallowed them hard.

Because the determination to die has been added, the potential has begun to burn, and people with a temperament like Fatis will not be easily persuaded by himself, and his words may even reduce his state.

"Alas, although I have always hoped that Fatis would activate the fifth characteristic, but this characteristic, why do I feel that it is better not to have it?"

People are all made of flesh and blood. At least at this moment, Fatis's life in Rhodes' heart has even exceeded the value of Lonely Mountain Castle.

Of course, objectively speaking, in the extraordinary era, a loyal legendary paladin is much more valuable than a city.

"Tesla, I will fight you to the death!"

Rhode was forced into a dead end in the gambling game. If he killed the Hell Dragon Tesla two months later, Fatis might be able to recover if he was not seriously injured. If he failed to kill it two months later, even if Rhode could escape, his first knight Fatis would definitely die.

Because with Fatis's temperament, he would definitely not abandon the hundreds of thousands of people in Lonely Mountain Castle and run away with Rhode.

In addition, there was less than two months of buffer time.
