Path of light

Chapter 727 728. Night Battle

Overnight, a stone wall appeared at the narrow exit of the Sun Island Bay.

The ice wall continued to melt under the scouring of the sea water, and the stone wall behind the ice wall gradually appeared. The griffin cavalry in the sky had fought all night and flew to the various arrow tower sentries to rest. Only a large group of headhunters were still working hard to carry hollow bricks and continue to build the stone wall.

After dawn, the tide gradually receded, and the part of the stone wall exposed to the sea surface looked very spectacular.

However, the boulders dropped by the griffin cavalry can only be the cornerstone of the stone wall. If you want to build a wall, you need the headhunter prisoners to build a real wall on the sea surface with hollow bricks.

These headhunter prisoners have rich experience in wall building. They first make the stone foundation flat, then build the hollow bricks, and string all the hollow bricks together with chains. With a large number of chains connected, even without cement mortar pouring, this wall can become very strong.

Since the arrow tower was built on the top of the mountain, the required building materials could only be obtained locally.

At the beginning, the headhunter prisoners insisted on using the stones excavated from the cliffs of the mountain to build the arrow tower. Later, Roy planned to connect a wall between the arrow towers. From then on, the mined stones were not enough.

In order to build the wall smoothly, Captain Tiprado obtained a formula for a building material from Miss Tiffany. This building material was used by the Cana to build the underwater city.

The main material is a kind of gelatin boiled with a large amount of kelp, which is mixed with sand and gravel, and then pressed into the shape of hollow bricks with a mold. After drying, it can become a very strong hollow brick. This hollow brick presents a matcha color in the sea.

The headhunter prisoners strung these hollow bricks together with chains, hundreds or thousands of them together, so that the wall could be built very quickly. In the future, the wall would be covered with some corals, shells and seaweed. When all the gaps disappeared, the chains would be completely corroded by the sea water in time, and the whole wall would not collapse.

In order to build the wall at the exit of the bay in a very short time, some of the hollow bricks in the back were even removed from the mountaintop wall.

After a day and a night of hard work, a wall appeared at the exit of the Sun Island Bay. This stone wall was more than 200 meters long and was built by more than 4,000 half-blood elves and 5,000 highland headhunter prisoners.

The stone foundation of the wall was made of large rocks found by 2,500 griffins from nearby mountains, and the wall built with hollow bricks was on the stone foundation.

The part of the wall exposed to the sea was only six or seven meters high, but the wall was more than ten meters wide, completely separating the Sun Island Bay from the western sea area.

By dusk, the Dark Faceless Legion surged up again, but they couldn't find the entrance to the Sun Island Bay...

They tried to get out of the sea and climb up the newly built wall, but the tentacles kept coming out of the sea and spreading upward along the cracks in the wall, and then the huge corpse emerged from the sea.

At this time, the griffin cavalrymen who were constantly wandering in the sky immediately lowered their flying altitude and pulled out short flying spears from behind.

As the griffins folded their wings and dived down, these griffin cavalrymen threw short flying spears towards the sea...

The tips of these short flying spears had a row of sharp barbs, and with the sound of "puff", one by one, the short flying spears pierced the faceless warriors who tried to climb the wall.

The faceless warriors were pierced by the short flying spears, and their bodies immediately twisted violently, and the tentacles on their bodies kept twisting. Some tentacles even entangled with the short flying spears and pulled the short flying spears out of their bodies.

Other faceless warriors sprayed ink into the sky, which could reach a height of 30 meters, but could not even touch the feathers of the griffins.

…

At the exit of the Sun Island Bay, the Faceless Legion would be attacked every day.

Yesterday night, the Siren Jie Zena summoned all the Siren Chanters of the Sun Island to condense an ice wall at the exit of the bay, allowing Roy to command the half-blood elf guards, griffin cavalry and headhunter prisoners, and built a stone wall behind the ice wall.

When the Faceless Legion approached the Sun Island Bay again at dusk the next day, they found that there was an inexplicable stone wall here.

When the Faceless Warriors climbed up the stone wall, they would immediately be attacked by the griffin cavalry in the sky...

At the same time, the wall was full of half-blood elf guards, holding forest bows, constantly throwing feather arrows emitting a sacred aura at the Faceless Warriors, and these half-blood elf guards were followed by more than a dozen priests.

It was these priests who released holy beams of light on the city wall, lighting up the city wall at night. At the same time, they also blessed the feather arrows of the half-blood elf guards with the power of holy light.

After these feather arrows were thrown at the faceless warriors, they had a strong corrosive effect on them...

For a moment, the first batch of faceless warriors who rushed to the city wall left half of their bodies behind and retreated back to the sea in embarrassment.

Roy was also guarding the city wall at this time. He was wearing the Griswald magic pattern armor, holding a flail and a book of judgment, and surrounded by a strong sacred aura. The shadow of a holy light tree often appeared behind him...

There was always a sacred beam of light in front of Roy, which was like a holy light beacon in the dark night, giving all the half-blood elf guards on the city wall a very solid feeling. As long as Roy stood on the city wall, the half-blood elf guards had endless strength. Even if they saw countless tentacles of faceless warriors surging out of the deep sea, they would not retreat a single step.

After the dark faceless warriors died, their bodies would turn into a viscous liquid like black oil and stain the stone wall.

These black viscous liquids quickly melted under the holy light, and then were carried back to the sea by the waves.

Several faceless warriors climbed up from under the stone wall with short flying spears stuck in their backs, bearing the corrosion of the holy light column. Roy rushed forward first, holding a flail in his hand, chanting a prayer, and then swinging the flail...

Roy threw a small holy light hammer, which was full of strong holy light aura and hit the dark faceless man directly. The unfortunate dark faceless man immediately had a hole the size of a coconut shell in his chest.

And its body collapsed at this time.

Roy stepped on the hollow bricks next to the city wall with one foot, and the half-blood elf guards beside him shot arrows one after another. The half-blood elf archers were full of spearmen.

Other faceless warriors were also stabbed by spears and fell into the sea one after another.

At this time, a tentacle suddenly stretched out from the crack of the stone and secretly wrapped around Roy's leg. Roy felt that he was pulled by a huge force and lost his balance. He was about to be pulled into the sea by the tentacles secretly stretched out by the faceless warrior. At this time, Leah jumped out from the shadows again like a night blade leopard. She held two daggers in her hands and cut off the tentacle as fast as lightning!

At the same time, another black shadow jumped out and jumped directly onto the back of the faceless warrior. It was a real night blade leopard. It opened its bloody mouth and bit the head of the faceless warrior directly. It shook its head violently and tore off all the shorter tentacles on the head of the faceless warrior.

Just when several thick tentacles emerged and wanted to wrap it up, the night blade leopard jumped and disappeared in the night. Those tentacles didn't even touch the hair of the night blade leopard.

The tentacles wrapped around his legs stood limply on the thick leather shin armor. Roy found that there was a row of dense suction cups on the tentacles. There were needle-like stingers in the round holes in the middle of these suction cups. Unfortunately, these tiny stingers could not pierce Roy's magic pattern structure, so the stingers had no effect on Roy at all.

Roy's magic pattern structure can increase his holy light power, which has a significant effect on his own physique, strength, and magic resistance.

He found that this time he threw five holy light hammers in a row, and he did not feel the strong dizziness he usually felt...

For the whole night, Roy didn't know how many waves of dark faceless warriors he had repelled on the city wall.

The priests behind him would rest at the back whenever they were tired, and new priests would immediately come to replace them...

The griffin cavalry wandering in the night sky also took turns to fight.

When the first light appeared on the horizon, the dark faceless warriors retreated back to the sea, leaving only some corpses of faceless warriors on the city wall.

The half-blood elf guards who had been fighting on the Sun Island Bay could finally sit on the city wall and rest.

Roy sat for a while before standing up from the wall. He needed to walk around the city wall to see the specific situation of other parts of the city wall.

After a night of fighting, three places on the more than 200-meter-long city wall collapsed. Roy immediately asked people to wake up the headhunter prisoners who had slept all night to work. They had to reinforce the city wall all day today.

The half-blood elf guards who had fought all night also needed a good rest.

Roy walked back and forth on the city wall. Although dozens of half-blood elf guards died in this battle, the emotions of the other half-blood elf guards were still stable. When they saw Roy coming, they stood up and saluted Roy.

At this time, a team of half-blood elf guards climbed up the city wall and replaced the half-blood elf guards who were already exhausted on the city wall.

Another officer ran up to Roy and said to him:

"Boss Roy, you have been fighting all night, go to the camp behind to rest."

...

The camp of the half-blood elf guards was set up in the woods on the north slope of the mountain. The tents had been set up, and there were half-blood elves distributing food and hammocks in the open space in the forest.

Roy also lined up to receive two breadfruits and a cup of fruit tea, and sat under the tree to eat them alone.

At this time, the sun had risen, the sea surface was bright, and the faceless warriors disappeared...

Some half-blood elf guards took long poles and searched for black magic cores in the sticky black oil. This was the most valuable thing on the faceless warriors.

The half-blood elf guards who had fought all night were purified of the dark air on their bodies by the priests, and then they hung up hammocks in the woods and fell asleep on the hammocks.

Suddenly, snoring sounded in the camp, and all the elves passing by the camp would lighten their footsteps without any agreement.

Roy sat under a tree at the edge of the camp, preparing to lie in the hammock for a while, when he saw Sabrina, exhausted, leading the snow-white griffin up the slope. She had obviously seen Roy and was walking towards him.

She held the helmet in her hand, her hair was wet, as if she had just taken a shower.

The quiver and short spear hanger behind her were all empty, and it seemed that she had participated in the fierce battle last night.

Sabrina came to Roy, patted the gryphon on the head, and let it rest in a dry place. Then she hung a hammock on two trees nearby and said to Roy, "You don't mind if I Let’s set up a hammock here?”

"Would you like some help?"

Roy put down the teacup in his hand and walked over to help Sabrina tighten the ropes of the hammock.

Sabrina pursed her lips, with a hint of joy on her bright face. Her eyes were as clear and blue as the sea. She inherited the beautiful face of the Silver Moon Elf. The Wood Elf has a tall figure, which makes her look very special among the elves. of difference.

Sabrina did not take off the magic armor on her body, but only took off the shoulder armor and hung it together with the helmet at the head of the hammock.

A pair of silver combat boots was placed on the other side, with his hands pressed on both sides of the hammock, and his body gently, like a flexible carp, he lay down tightly in the hammock.

She turned slightly sideways and looked at Roy.

Roy was standing in front of a hammock between two other trees. Their hammocks were not far apart. The terrain here was just right and the view was wide. You could even see the sea in the distance while lying on the hammock.

Roy was still hesitating whether to lie down in the hammock for a while, when he heard Sabrina say to him:

"Roy, do you think we can defeat the Dark Faceless Army? If we lose, will we give up the Partington plane?"

"The Dark Faceless Legion has never been a threat to us. What I worry about is that once the Dark Faceless Legion gains a foothold in the Partington plane, it will immediately pull other Dark Legions over. That would be the most troublesome." Roy took off his boots, hung them on a branch, and climbed into the hammock.

"This time I went to the Queen Egwene Islands to participate in the war and captured a lot of gray dwarf prisoners of war. I heard that their hometown was completely invaded by the Dark Legion, so they were forced to seize the islands from us. There are so many islands in the Endless Sea, but they just want to It’s a bit confusing to occupy the Queen Egwene Islands.”

Roy turned over and lay on the hammock and said speechlessly.

"This time you are visiting the Elf Continent, have you gone to see Moira?"

"No, I'm going back to Castletown in a few days. Do you want to go back with me?" Roy asked casually.

"The situation here at Sun Island Bay is so bad, so let's forget it."

Sabrina twisted her body, reached out to put the helmet on her face, and stopped talking.

Not far away on the sea, two medium-sized sailing ships were docked at the simple dock, and a group of mixed-blood elf guards were unloading a large amount of supplies from the ships.

Even among the mixed-blood elves living in the Bay of Sun Island, not all elves support Roy in fighting the Faceless Legion. Some middle-level officers of the regiment, including Captain Tiprado, believe that the Dark Faceless Legion is not a threat. The elf town on the north coast of Sun Island Bay. They want to fight the sea monster, so let’s fight. It’s best to end up with both sides hurting...

Therefore, when Captain Tiprado led the Griffin Cavalry Regiment to participate in the night battle a few days ago, he always failed to do his job. This is also the reason why Siren Zezena was furious.

Now Roy personally came to the battlefield of Sun Island Bay and fought with the Dark Faceless Army all night long. No matter how angry the Siren Zezena was, it should be calmed down.
