Warlord: King of All Clans

Mage Morse was also shocked and broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly stacked shields for himself and could no longer free his hands to release the fire explosion.

He is not actually a combat profession and does not know many offensive spells.

It was only because he relied on his high rank and felt fearless that he dared to run to the top of the city wall to watch the battle and show off his presence as the chief wizard of River Bay.

He has never sworn allegiance to the Lord of Riverbend, but when Riverbend was attacked, he, as a dedicated wizard, had to show his loyalty.

After seeing the magic of the river bend, anyone will begin to consider the value of their own existence.

In his original prediction, the alien races in the wilderness lacked inheritance, so they would naturally awaken some low-level extraordinary beings, and it would be impossible for mid-level beings to exist.

The average strength of the trolls' low-level extraordinary people is one level higher than that of humans, and at most they are at the initial intermediate level. With such strength, it is almost impossible to break his defense.

But Taz's spear directly broke his life-saving shield.

The brooch on his chest with a force field shield engraved on it was a disposable magic item, worth at least three hundred gold. Even a wealthy wizard couldn't afford it.

Without the protection of the magic brooch, Morse had to cast spells to maintain the mana shield in order to block Taz's attacks, and could no longer concentrate on casting the fourth-level Pyroblast.

He has been spending a lot of time in the laboratory doing experiments and studying theories, and his actual combat skills are only limited to the level of using Pyroblast and acting as a turret.

It is impossible for a scientific researcher to be as adaptable as a battle mage who practices hard all day and can perform well on the battlefield or in the arena.

After Taz's spear shattered his shield, Morse didn't dare to provoke him again.

Looking at the cracked sapphire on the brooch on his chest, Master Morse felt a little regretful and couldn't help but glance at the "Centurion" who was pushed into the corner.

A mana shield brooch costs three hundred gold soles.

The total cost of a "Thousand Captain" cannon was less than fifty gold soles.

If I had known this earlier, I would not have come here. It would have been better for me to privately sponsor a few "Thousand Captains" so as not to delay my research progress or risk my life here.

Wood, the Wind Knight, who was not far away, saw Mage Morse being attacked, and subconsciously moved a few steps and stood in front of Mage Morse.

Several javelins flew over and hit his scarlet armor, shattering and exploding without causing any damage.

This is the headhunting spear thrown by Taz's personal headhunter, but both the power and the material of the weapon are far different.

Watching the large number of troll warriors rushing up the city wall and shaking the formation of the River Bend infantry, Wood finally used up his last means of defense.

"ignition."

Ten seconds later, a deafening roar was heard from under the city wall.

Violent tremors were transmitted from the foot of the city wall, almost completely shattering the cement coating. The bricks and stones on the surface of the city wall loosened, and large-scale collapse began to occur, revealing the rammed earth and stone slabs inside.

The trolls clinging to the city wall fell down one after another like dumplings.

Even the Hewan infantry on the city wall became unsteady and their formation almost collapsed.

What’s even more terrifying is that under the city wall, countless troll remains flew out from under the city wall, and some even flew ten meters high and landed on the city wall.

Under the entire city wall, the crowd of trolls disappeared, leaving only a pile of broken corpses and three times the number of trolls holding their heads and howling in pain.

The rear half of the troll army was frightened by the horrific explosion and did not dare to move forward for a moment. They would rather huddle below and be constantly killed by the long-range weapons of the soldiers defending the city.

Such a horrifying scene made even the Hewan soldiers who were gradually becoming familiar with gunpowder feel a chill on their backs, fearing that they would be blown away in the next second.

The only person in the audience who was cheering excitedly was a group of Kobold Demomen who were almost killed by rocks: "Great!"

This is their masterpiece!

Civil officer Nain looked at the bricks and stones of the city wall that kept falling and shouted anxiously: "Woof woof woof! My city wall! My city wall!"

Because the new military chief of Stonecrush had little knowledge of the subject, the construction of the wall was relegated to civil engineering, with Nairn in charge of its supervision.

When this city wall was first built, the cement in the river bend was still an early product. Coupled with the unskilled construction workers, this section of the city wall was not as strong as it appeared.

Of course, such city walls were fully qualified in the Middle Ages, enough to withstand the long-term bombardment of catapults, and could also withstand the bombardment of many mid-level spells or early artillery.

But this time, the Gnoll Demolition Man of Gravel Fort followed Wood's request and buried all the mining gunpowder stored in Gravel Fort underground in front of the city wall.

Wood had no clear idea of ​​the equivalent of the explosive powder, and the Kobold Demolition Man had not even considered whether the city walls would be affected.

This was the first time they had received such a large order in the past two years, and it was also the only time they were allowed to use unlimited gunpowder.

For the Kobold Demolitionist who is addicted to blasting, as long as it is explosive enough and loud enough, nothing else matters!

The city walls that seemed indestructible to the people of Stonebreak Castle were crumbling under their own attacks.

A math problem flashed through Nairn's mind.

There are twenty stonemasons, and the average monthly salary is 2,100 copper coins.

There are one hundred laborers, and the average monthly salary is nine hundred copper coins.

One thousand five hundred bags of cement were consumed...

Stone, bricks, loess, logs...

The total loss was 850,000 coppers!

Fire them! Fire them! Send all the Demomen back to mining!

The huge explosion blocked the attack of the remaining trolls and reduced the pressure on the city walls.

At the same time, the Wind Knight Wood brought Nain, who had been holding him, to the arms of the Mage Morse and said, "Take good care of him for me."

Then he leaped from the enemy platform to the city wall, drew out the enchanted sword, and ran towards the troll warrior Taz.

Seeing the extraordinary human general rushing towards him, the troll general was not at all intimidated, but instead showed an excited expression.

The balance of victory or defeat in the war has already tilted towards the human race, but if their generals are killed in one fell swoop, there is still a chance to make amends.

The two men charged at each other and collided violently.

Neither Wood, who had the scarlet armored defense, nor Taz, who had thick skin and flesh, avoided each other's attacks and exchanged blows.

Taz's battle axe, made from the bones of a high-level monster, hit Wood's shoulder armor hard, making a dull thud and even spreading out a wave of air.

The Scarlet Armor was originally a special weapon designed to target the Orc Wolf Cavalry, and was designed to defend against the wolf cavalry's long swords.

The thickest part of its shoulder armor is a full centimeter thick, and is made of high-quality steel by a magic alchemist.

The powerful slash from the mid-level general only caused the shoulder armor to dent slightly, and the force was dispersed by the excellent force-dissipating design, and ultimately failed to cause serious damage to Wood.

Wood's enchanted sword had already pierced through Taz's right chest, and the tip of the blade protruded from his back.

Taz, feeling the pain, raised his foot and kicked Wood away, and the wound began to heal visibly.

The Troll Warlord's self-healing ability is extremely terrifying. As long as he does not suffer fatal injuries, he can recover quickly on his own.
