Pecker Orc corpses covered the entire bottom of the Miracle Wall, especially within 20 meters of the foot of the Miracle Wall. It was a staircase made of corpses.
The firewall spell could no longer clean up the corpses. As soon as a row of corpses was burned, countless more Pecker Orcs would rush up and fill the gap.
Abel was stunned. Although he had experienced many battles in the Dark World, he couldn't understand what was happening in front of him.
The Pecker Orcs' attack was meaningless. Other than dying, he couldn't think of anything to do with the Miracle Wall.
"K3516, now you know why the Miracle Wall is different on both sides, right?" K3003 said softly.
"Is it because of the corpses?" Abel felt a shiver down his spine as he said those words.
"For thousands of years, the Orcs would attack like this every once in a while. Sometimes it would be bigger, sometimes it would be smaller. Basically, it would be 2 to 3 months apart!" K3003 lowered his voice and explained.
"Do you see the rocks the Pecker Orcs brought? Those rocks are just to add to the pile. We will send people to clean up those rocks, but the corpses will be hard to clean up because … "K3305 explained, but he suddenly stopped.
"Because what?" Abel asked.
"I don't need to explain. Look at the battlefield!" K3305 pointed outside the Miracle Wall.
The Pecker Orcs' corpses had piled up to 100 meters tall outside the Miracle Wall. Hundreds of thousands of Pecker Orcs and their wild boars had fallen outside the Miracle Wall. At the same time, the black-cloaked priests under the protection of the Pecker Knight began to approach the Miracle Wall.
There were also 10 giant orc crossbows moving with the deities. These giant orc crossbows were pushed by the Pecker knights until they reached a distance of 600 meters before stopping.
"Why didn't our intermediate wizards go out and stop them? Why did they just stop outside the Miracle Wall?" Abel asked again in confusion.
"Other than the crossbows, there is no other way to threaten them. The Miracle Wall is now the territory of the priests!" K3003 said helplessly.
"Why?" Abel asked again.
"Didn't you see all those corpses? Our intermediate wizards will not be able to win against a deity in an environment like this. They will most likely die outside the Miracle Wall! "K3003 knew Abel was a newbie, so he explained patiently.
Abel finally understood what k3003 meant. The entire Miracle Wall was filled with dead bodies, and death qi was everywhere. It was like heaven for sacrifices.
The countless corpses provided endless materials for the deities' 'corpse explosion' and 'poison explosion' spells. Once an intermediate wizard entered an environment like this, even if they had the 'instantaneous movement' ability, it would be hard to avoid the endless corpse explosion.
"Then it shouldn't be a problem to use the crossbows to attack, right?" Abel asked again.
"You know what? Our Miracle City will not use crossbows when we can't retrieve them. Although 600 meters is within the range of a crossbow, with the protection of a Pecker Knight, it will not hurt a deity. Every Pecker Knight will sacrifice their life to protect a deity, and the Orc Empire will be more than happy to trade a Pecker Knight for an armor piercing crossbow! "K3003 explained again patiently.
Outside the Miracle Wall, the Pecker Knight had already set up the giant orc crossbow and loaded it with a bolt. In Abel's eyes, the quality of the bolt could only be considered normal.
A deity waved his hand, and a bolt flew out and hit the Miracle Wall. A white light flashed on the Miracle Wall, and a small light shield appeared between the bolt and the Miracle Wall.
Afterward, the deity commanded a second giant orc crossbow to attack. Again, the bolt was blocked by the light shield, and it did not make contact with the Miracle Wall.
However, in Abel's eyes, he saw something different. The strength of the crossbow arrow had changed from before.
Under Abel's observation, the bolt's speed suddenly slowed down. He could clearly see the strange pattern on the bolt.
The 3rd giant orc crossbow also attacked, and the effect was more or less the same. Afterward, the giant orc crossbows all fired, and the entire Miracle Wall was eerily quiet. It was like everyone was silently watching what the deities were doing.
For the next eight arrows, Abel also saw slightly different patterns. As a grandmaster blacksmith, he was no stranger to these patterns. These were the patterns on the dwarven armor-piercing arrows, but it seemed that these patterns had some flaws. In terms of power, they were not as powerful as the dwarven armor-piercing arrows.
However, if this pattern was made of the best steel instead of ordinary iron, then the power of the arrow would increase by many times.
Could it be that the orcs were trying to crack the dwarfs armor piercing crossbows?
A thought emerged in Abel's mind. The pattern on the dwarfs armor piercing crossbows was a special pattern passed down from the dwarfs. It could increase the penetration power of the crossbow.
This pattern was the secret of the dwarfs. Even Abel did not want to find out about it. With his relationship with the dwarfs, he could buy as many armor piercing crossbows as he wanted. He did not need to make them one by one.
Although he didn't have time to pay attention to the first arrow that the orc priests shot out, he could clearly see the patterns on the other nine arrows. They were all testing the same pattern. It seemed like the priests were testing the armor piercing ability of the arrows.
"There is something wrong with the orcs' crossbows. They should have armor piercing ability!" Abel lowered his voice.
"Are you sure?" K3003 also saw that the orc deities were acting strange today, so he quickly confirmed after hearing Abel's words.
"Won't we know if we can get one of the bolts?" Abel gazed at him and said.
He couldn't really explain why. He couldn't tell him that he was a grandmaster blacksmith, and he had made tens of thousands of armor-piercing crossbow bolts, but he just needed to get his hands on one of them to know what was going on.
K3003 gazed at Abel seriously. If Abel was not a wizard who had killed a head Knight captain, he would not believe Abel. Armor piercing crossbows could only be made by the dwarfs. Although you could see the patterns on each arrow, those patterns had been encrypted countless times. It was not easy to crack them.
However, if this was true, it meant the Orc Empire had a powerful attack method. If those armor piercing crossbows were made of the best steel, they would be a real threat to the Miracle Wall.
Not just the Miracle Wall, but also wizards who did not know how to move in a flash would have to consider the threat of those armor piercing crossbows.
K3003 took out his military card and whispered to someone. Abel did not use his power of the will to eavesdrop. They were all wizards, and they were very sensitive to power of the will.
Soon, K3003 returned to Abel and said softly, "I've just talked to the wizards on guard. They will try to get one arrow for research!"
Abel once again connected to the scouting circle through his military card. By that time, 2 black shadows were dashing towards the Miracle Wall. Their target was the arrow on the dead body.
Normally, this kind of thing would be very normal because the Orc Empire had a persistent need for all kinds of iron. Even a little bit of iron was very important to the Orc Empire.
Just as the two shadows approached the Miracle Wall, three walls of fire appeared in their direction. Then another three walls of fire appeared, completely blocking the two shadows from getting any closer.
"Not good, those humans want to take our arrows. Let's attack together and destroy those arrows!" A black cloak priest yelled.
A few priests raised their hands at the same time, and death qi began to gather. At the same time, a white light flashed next to a broken arrow. An intermediate wizard appeared next to the arrow and pressed his hand on it.
At that moment, the body beside him began to expand. It was too late for him to move in a flash. However, that intermediate wizard just patted his waist, and his body disappeared from the spot.
