At this time, the undead army had already reached the walls of Loggerland City. Under the leadership of the two lords, they were preparing to attack the city. Some of the "suicidal" troops were already carrying ladders and rushing forward to attract bullets. They didn't even have the most basic of weapons, so their task was to carry ladders and rush forward. As long as they could get the ladders up, that would be enough. If they could attract a few bullets along the way, that would be a big win for them.
According to Li Huailin's instructions, the undead army's main target today was the enemy's city gate. They believed that the enemy's main defense was also here. After all, if the city gate was lost, then the entire city would be lost.
Sulfur was currently wearing armor and didn't ride a horse. Instead, he held his sword and stood at the forefront. Behind him stood the most elite undead close combat troops. Sulfur's intention was to charge at the strongest wave of undead and be the first to ascend the city wall.
"Lord Sulfur, let the other soldiers charge first. When the enemy's firepower weakens, you can charge." Soudeis was a little worried because the bullets at the beginning were definitely the fiercest. Charging at this time required a lot of courage, and even Soudeis didn't dare to do so.
"No … I've already promised His Highness that I will be the first to ascend the city wall." Sulfur seemed to be full of confidence. The main reason was that he recently discovered that his new body felt really good, as if his abilities had become stronger. In fact, his strength had increased slightly after fighting against the two experts on this side. It was just that Sulfur didn't forget to think about this.
After several attempts of persuasion, Soudeis could only let Sulfur do this. He ordered the guards behind to protect the Lord while Soudeis gave the order to attack.
"All undead troops have … His Highness' order to attack has arrived. Everyone, listen up! Attack!"
"Attack!" "Woo …"
A horn sounded and the undead officially launched their attack. In an instant, a wave of hoarse roars sounded. The undead army trampled over the corpses on the ground and charged forward. The first troops were naturally the ladder team and the shield team, while Sulfur led the climbing team behind them.
"Pa Pa Pa …" Very naturally, a series of gunshots rang out. The loud sounds of gunpowder explosions pierced through the quiet night sky. Although visibility wasn't good at night, there were too many enemies. They could easily hit someone by shooting randomly from below the city walls.
The first volley of gunshots quickly caused casualties on the undead's side. Several suicide troops carrying ladders immediately fell down, but the people next to them immediately lifted the ladders and continued to move forward. This degree of damage wasn't enough to scare the undead. Under the protection of the shield team, the undead troops didn't suffer any injuries and continued to press down the city wall.
"Bang bang bang …" Another volley of gunshots rang out. This was the second volley of gunshots. Hearing this sound, Soudeis, who was commanding from the rear, suddenly frowned. Compared to the first volley, the second volley of gunshots sounded a lot less for some reason.
Sudais did not hear wrongly, because the frontline assault troops had also discovered that for some reason, the second round of gunfire had resulted in very few casualties. Not many of the troops who had been sent to their deaths had died.
"Sir Overlord, I don't know why the enemy's firepower has decreased." Sulfur's deputy said to Sulfur strangely. This was simply too illogical. How could the second volley of gunshots be less than the first? The enemies were getting closer, so the number of casualties should be higher.
"I don't know why, but it seems like a good opportunity for us. Everyone, follow me and charge!" Sulfur also couldn't figure it out, or rather, he didn't even think about it. Now that they were almost at the city wall, Sulfur only wanted to be the first to climb the city wall and didn't think about anything else.
Due to the decrease in firepower, the undead army's morale was boosted. The vanguard troops rushed down the city wall even faster. But why did the enemy's firepower decrease? The Dwarves didn't know. What happened just now was that the troops on both sides of the city wall opened fire, but the troops near the middle gate didn't open fire for some reason. That was why the firepower was so low.
"What's going on?" The generals on the left and right walls were bewildered. In the middle was the main force led by General Aska, but after the first volley of gunshots, there was no response at all. They didn't know what was going on.
"Send someone over to take a look." After thinking for a moment, the generals on both sides ordered at the same time, "Continue to attack!"
The Undead army was still charging forward, and they soon discovered that the Dwarves had let go of their guns. They didn't know what was wrong with the Dwarves. Only the two sides of the city wall would fire bullets, while the center of the city gate was unguarded. When they got closer, they looked up and saw that there wasn't even a single person standing on the city wall.
"Sir Overlord, this doesn't feel right. Is there a conspiracy?" The deputy general felt that something was wrong. What was going on? Why was there no one defending?
"Who cares! Set up ladders and charge! " If it was an ordinary general, he might have hesitated, but Sulfur didn't hesitate at all. He waved his hand and yelled.
Most of the ladders had safely reached the bottom of the city wall and started working. To be honest, it wasn't easy to set up the ladders. The city wall was too high, and the ladders were 20 meters long. Moreover, they were made of solid wood and weighed a few hundred kilograms. It was very difficult for a dozen people to pull the ladders. If someone interfered, it would be very difficult to complete the task. But for some reason, the Dwarves on the city wall didn't seem to notice the undead building the ladders. Nobody came to disturb them.
When the Dwarves on both sides of the city wall saw the undead rushing to the bottom of the city gate, they were extremely anxious. However, they couldn't shoot anywhere. The generals on both sides were anxious and wanted to go to the middle to help. However, General Aska's order hadn't arrived yet, so they didn't dare to give up their positions.
"Where's the person we sent?" the general asked.
"Reporting, General. The person hasn't returned yet," the messenger replied.
"What's going on? The enemy is about to attack. What is General Aska doing?!" The Dwarf general said in annoyance. "Send more people! Quickly! "
Since there was no one to disturb them, the ladders completed their work very quickly. About ten minutes later, the first ladder was set up, and the other ladders were almost ready.
"Move, I'll go first!" As soon as the ladders were set up, Sulfur couldn't wait any longer. He tossed aside the undead soldier beside him and grabbed the ladder to climb up.
"Wait, Sir Overlord." The deputy general pulled Sulfur and said, "The situation isn't right. I suspect that the enemy general has set up a trap. General, you can't take the risk. Let the soldiers go up first."
"What kind of trap?" Sulfur asked in annoyance.
"Uh … I don't know …" The deputy general said, "But General, this is too strange. If it was a normal time, the enemy's stones, boiling oil, and other things would've been poured here, not to mention arrows and guns. But now … there's not even a shadow. This … this doesn't make sense."
"Who cares what's going on? I want to be the first to climb up the city wall!" Sulfur didn't listen to the deputy general's advice. He tossed aside the deputy general, bit his sword, and began to climb up.
"Sir Overlord, Sir Overlord!" The deputy general couldn't stop Sulfur. Without a choice, the deputy general could only follow. With Sulfur taking the lead, a large group of elite undead soldiers began to climb up the wall.
"We're almost there!" Looking up at the city wall, they weren't far from their destination. Sulfur was also paying attention to whether there would be a surprise attack from above. He was ready to counterattack with his sword.
But when he reached the top, Sulfur didn't see anyone sticking out from the wall to stop him. The top of the ladder was still a distance away from the top of the city wall. Sulfur stood on it, grabbed it with both hands, and flipped over.
"Haha!" Before Sulfur could see the situation, he immediately pulled out his sword and shouted, "I, Undead Lord Sulfur Banserro, am the first to climb up the city wall! Dwarven grandsons, come and fight! "
"Oh, you're finally up? Too slow! " Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded, causing Sulfur to be stunned. At this time, he finally saw the situation around him. It wasn't that there were no people on the city wall, but that they were all lying on the ground. The entire city wall was filled with the corpses of the Dwarven soldiers who were vomiting blood. They were so densely packed that they almost covered the entire wall.
And on top of their corpses stood a person wearing a black robe. No matter how Sulfur looked at him, he found him familiar.
"Your … Your Highness?" Sulfur was stunned. "You … How did you get up?"
"Is it difficult? Didn't you just come up with a 'whoosh'? " Li Huailin spread his hands and said, "Why are you so slow? Didn't you say that you would be the first to climb up? Why are you slower than me? You even want me to wait for you?"
"Eh? This … this … "Sulfur didn't know how to answer. He couldn't understand how Li Huailin managed to climb up. Could it be that His Highness could fly?
"Lord, you're fine … F * ck!" At this time, the undead army behind had also caught up. When they saw the corpses on the ground, they were shocked. "What's going on? Why are all the Dwarven soldiers dead?"
"Come, come, come. Don't worry about it. Open the city gate immediately," Li Huailin said immediately.
