"Forgive me for not being able to accept your conditions just now." Chen Rui calmly understood the true meaning of Catherine's action, "Then, sit down calmly and have a good talk again."
"You have to accept." Catherine's indifferent tone was full of determination: "Otherwise, there is no talk, you should understand that the Shadow Empire is fully capable, and I don't necessarily need to join forces, but Shia has only one choice. "
"I'm so popular? So now should I be proud or depressed?" Chen Rui smiled wryly, and didn't argue about this matter. His tone changed: "There are many unstable factors in the Shadow Empire, such as... Bai Luo. According to the information I got, you have always wanted to solve Bai Luo without losing the Blade Legion. Now the war broke out suddenly, and the Jergal Fortress where Bai Luo is located is a throat point adjacent to the Blood Fiend Empire. If there is any change, it may affect the entire empire, and I can help you solve this headache."
There is another layer of meaning that Chen Rui didn't make clear, that is, the reason why Catherine put on a stance against the Fallen Angel Empire was to take advantage of the fire and seize the interests including "Chen Rui", and secondly, she wanted to keep Chen Cang in the dark and paralyze At the same time, Lei Chan resolved Bai Luo's confidant's serious troubles as quickly as possible, and put the inside first.
"It's just Bai Luo, you think I'm not capable of solving it?"
"Of course!" Chen Rui laughed, and suddenly thought of something, "By the way, I have something for you..."
Catherine's eyes fell on the things Chen Rui took out, and she was moved: "Immortal puppet!"
What Chen Rui took out was the metal doll he got in the rainy forest back then. This doll is one of the legacy left by the red dragon that was swallowed by Diu Diu. The last time he joined the Artisan Alliance of the Shadow Empire I wanted to give it to Catherine when I was young, but I never had a chance, and now I finally think about it. This humble puppet turned out to be the secret treasure of the royal family of Asmodeus, the strongest war puppet in the legend—the undead dark gold puppet!
Catherine's shock was no small matter. The Immortal Dark Gold Puppet has the attribute of immortality and will never be destroyed. It is the most important treasure besides the shadow cloak. It is a pity that it was lost thousands of years ago, and its whereabouts are still unknown. In the hands of Chen Rui. With this puppet and the shadow cloak, her combat power will be greatly improved. Even if she meets Lei Chan alone, she may not be invincible in a battle.
Catherine's mood quickly stabilized, and she looked into Chen Rui's eyes: "Is this an exchange in the name of the Fallen Angel Empire, or is it something you gave me personally?"
When Chen Rui heard that the metal puppet was actually an undead dark gold puppet, he really thought about it. Seeing Catherine's eyes, he finally sighed: "This is what I wanted to give you a long time ago. A gift, I never knew it was an undead puppet before."
"Hmph, I finally told the truth." Catherine took the doll, and there was a kind of uncontrollable joy in her eyes, and a veil suddenly appeared on her face, covering her face: "About Fortress Jergal... Tell me about your plan."
Does this count as bribery? Chen Rui muttered something in his heart, but fortunately, the "negotiation" was finally on the right track.
In front of the Warlock Fortress, a giant shield overlapping one another was erected to form a temporary barrier. The location of this fortress is very particular. It is just outside the attack range of the magic crystal cannon and the ballista. Occasionally, there are "stray bullets" flying over, but they cannot break through the defense of the giant shield.
Behind the giant shield, a series of catapults are being quickly formed in the hands of the goblin warriors, gradually taking shape. These catapults are equipped with a suitable force arm according to the estimated distance, and the range can effectively attack the fortress.
The Blood Fiend soldiers in front had already approached the moat outside the fortress wall after paying a high price of casualties.
The river surface of this moat was about 30 meters wide, and it was dug quite deep. The team of magicians began to cast magic together under strict protection. The soles of the Blood Fiend soldiers' leather boots have special anti-skid serrations, which make them walk on the ice as if they were walking on flat ground.
Halfway through, the ice surface suddenly shattered, and countless tough vines emerged, like solid city walls. The soldiers who approached were attacked one after another, and many of them fell into a coma. These are the guardian vines exchanged by Chen Rui's super system. They have the attributes of regeneration, stun, and restraint. They have strong protection capabilities, and hostile creatures that approach will be attacked. The army in front was blocked, and the speed behind it also slowed down. The bows and arrows poured down from the fortress like locusts, mixed with the sound of ballistas and the sound of giant crossbows piercing the air, quickly harvesting the life of the enemy.
The catapult behind the giant blood shield barrier has been quickly assembled, and the huge flaming stones are thrown towards the Warlock Fortress like shooting stars.
At this time, several huge shadows suddenly flew out of the Warlock Fortress, very fast, as if they had eyes, and flew towards the bolide launched by the catapult.
When the two collided together, they shattered with a "boom" at the same time, and the flaming rubble rained down on the heads of the soldiers of the Blood Fiend Empire below, and some of them who had not had time to raise their shields were crushed until their brains burst.
"What is this?" Achilles frowned as he looked at the scene in the magic mirror in Heiyun Town's bloody camp.
Tevez opened the mouth and said: "It should be the stone bullets fired by some special mechanical ejection. The launching force is very strong and the speed is faster than the stones of the catapult. Those stone bullets should have special magic patterns engraved on them, which can be automatically tracked. Fire element or earth element, this kind of ordnance, including the previous explosive ballista, is the first time I have seen it. It seems that the Fallen Angel Empire has brought us many new toys. Today's attack can force out the Fallen Angel Empire. Even if it’s a hole card, it’s a success.”
"The loss of the front line troops is not small," Gustav nodded. "Valok Fortress is famous for its strong demon world, and the terrain is special. If you really want to win it, I'm afraid you will have to pay a considerable price."
Tevez showed an indifferent smile: "For the great cause of unifying the devil world, all the price is worth it."
The catapult behind the giant shield barrier fired several rounds of bolides in a row, and 70% of them were intercepted by the boulders fired by the Warlock Fortress, and the rest flew to the Warlock Fortress, and those walls with magic patterns carved a piece There are ripples on the sheet, but it is not damaged at all. In addition to the "intercepting missiles", huge flaming stones were also shot out from the Warlock Fortress, and fell on the Blood Fiend army. This is not an attack that shields can block. Within the range of power, there are all scorched corpses.
The quality of the soldiers of the Blood Fiend Empire was fully reflected at this time. Although there were many casualties, they still maintained a rough attack formation and rhythm. Divide into two batches, one batch reinforces and fills the ice surface, and the other batch assists soldiers to eliminate vines.
Not long after, the guardian vines were completely crushed, and the Blood Fiend army successfully passed through the moat and approached the city.
After smashing the magic dark mine in front, a piece of equipment was pushed up from behind. The front one is a kind of iron cart, holding a huge hammer, like a bell that strikes a bell. Amidst the sound of the machine, the ram flew out and hit the outermost city wall, making a heart-wrenching sound. The water-like ripples on the surface of the city wall kept trembling, and the sand and gravel rustled down.
This kind of hammer and car has a large damage range to the city wall protected by magic patterns. Although many operators were shot and killed by arrows, under the cover of shields, many cars began to continuously attack the defensive magic of the city wall. More and more defensive glyphs were destroyed.
Vehicles with long ladders on their backs were pushed forward, apparently for climbing the city, and there were even larger chariots behind them, carrying groups of soldiers. magic. These types of siege equipment were personally improved by the little blood prince Tevez, and they played a huge role in the battle to conquer Iron Fist Castle and defeat Edmund not long ago.
The boarding car braved the rain of arrows and came to the front. The ladder behind it automatically extended up, and it was built on the city wall that had lost its protective magic. The death squads who were good at climbing the city quickly ascended the city. The physical fitness of these soldiers is very strong. Although the city wall is tens of meters high and some ladders are not long enough, the daredevil soldiers jumped several times with the strength of the ladders and they have already approached the entrance of the city wall. It's a pity that as soon as he jumped up, he was cut to pieces by rows of fortress defenders who had been preparing for a long time.
The Jinglan cart at the back pushed forward, rising steadily, almost at the same level as the city wall. From the pavilion at the top, bursts of colorful magic attacks sprayed out, attacking the fortress defenders who blocked the climb to the city, and some Soldiers used swing ropes to jump into the fortress and fight. Not long after, more and more Blood Fiend soldiers began to climb the city wall.
Seeing that the situation was critical, Francis on the tower remained unmoved. With a wave of his hand, the herald blew out a strange rhythmic sound again, and a row of defenders stood up and threw round objects down the city wall.
These things are like fruits. Shortly after they landed, they immediately mutated, and countless huge vines with thorns suddenly appeared. These vines will actively attack. They are stronger and more powerful than those on the previous moat. Not only do they have a powerful winding ability, It can also devour the flesh and blood of the enemy as nutrients.
No matter it was the ramming car, the ladder car or the well rail car, it was too late to retreat. Under this terrible entanglement and tearing, the soldiers fell or were swallowed by the huge vines.
This gluttonous vine is also a spirit-controlling item that Chen Rui exchanged for George. Compared with the guardian vine, which is proficient in protection, it is more aggressive. After releasing the spiritual energy seeds, it can be quickly formed within ten seconds.
Originally, all the spirit-controlling items could only be used by Chen Rui himself, but since the five-star evolution, the exchange center has a fruit of endowment, which can give the spirit-controlling plants to the medium used by others. What the soldiers threw out before was absorbed gluttony The bestowing fruit of the vine seed.
Almost all the siege equipment of the Blood Fiend side were destroyed by the gluttonous vines, and the previous fierce offensive was completely submerged in the sea of countless "tentacles".
At this moment, rows of dense black dots appeared in the sky behind the shield wall, and they were gradually enlarging—the Blood Fiend's air army finally dispatched.
At the central headquarters of Warlock Fortress, the voice of the red dragon lady Gloria sounded: "It's the Wind Dragon Legion of the Blood Fiend Empire! George, let me go with the Feiyun Legion!"
"The Flying Cloud Legion has not regained its vitality in the Battle of the Dark Moon. If it is a frontal battle, it will be difficult to match the Wind Dragon Legion. However, don't worry," George said with a confident smile: "Because an old friend of mine has already returned from the Dark Moon. Came here."
