The horn for the Dark Coalition's attack sounded, and Blade City was like a huge war machine, slowly operating from the inside to the outside, switching to wartime mode.
The entire city was shrouded in a tense atmosphere.
The residents dispersed. Those below Black Iron level returned to their homes to hide, while those above Black Iron level carried bags of supplies and spontaneously formed civilians to support the war.
The current Chief of the Elder Council, Brin, accompanied by soldiers, followed the flood of gamers to the city wall.
As the current ruler of Blade City, he had to shoulder the responsibility of commanding.
However, the Dark Dwarf Firebeard did not choose to leave. Instead, he returned to the Death Shrine in Blade City and activated the Dungeon's defense core under the gaze of the Death High Priests who heaved a sigh of relief …
Though other people could do this job, the previous siege proved that it was better for Firebeard, who was a god's chosen one, to operate it.
Under Firebeard's control, the Power of Faith stored in the shrine instantly activated the defense system. The dark gray energy split into two directions, with the shrine as the center.
One of the energy traveled along the ground and quickly covered the entire city wall of Blade City. The other energy soared into the sky and covered the dome of the cavern. It was like an inverted bowl that covered the entire Blade City.
This was the same method used by Black Rock City to defend against the Shadow Army. It was a large-scale Divine Spell defensive barrier that covered an area comparable to a Forbidden Spell.
However, upon closer inspection, one would discover that this Divine Spell defensive barrier was not sealed. Instead, there was a gap in the city wall.
This could not be helped …
If it was completely sealed, the consumption of the Power of Faith would multiply, and the remaining power of the shrine would not be able to last for long.
Hence … the Divine Spell defensive barrier could only cover the most likely areas above and below the ground that would be ambushed. At the same time, it left the area above the city wall empty as a battlefield for the enemy.
This area was also the main source of casualties for the Dark Silence Alliance army.
In the Underworld, which was filled with climbing Magical Beasts and monsters, the city wall's function was far inferior to the surface. Its value was only in choosing to fight on the city wall.
At this moment, the Dark Dwarf warriors and Gnome Mages were already standing on the city wall. They were preparing various long-range machines to fight against the army while looking nervously below the city wall.
Monsters, Dark Dwarves, Spirit-Leeches, Spectres, and Goblins formed the Dark City-State Alliance army and gradually surrounded them.
As far as the eye could see, it was a sea of black.
Accompanied by the tremors caused by the army's march, as well as the constant roars and roars of the monsters echoing in the cavern … the Dark Faction's army appeared even more oppressive and frightening in the already dark underground world.
Some of the soldiers of Blade City had a slight change in expression because they noticed that the scale of the enemy's attack this time was much larger than the previous ones.
After a few days of siege, the Dark Alliance had more or less figured out the strength of Blade City. Under the command of Lich King Pelone, the army had decided to take down the bridgehead of the Dark Alliance in one fell swoop.
At the front was the Goblin army. They were poorly equipped, but there were many of them. Under the threat of the Death Knights behind them, they carried ladders and howled as they charged towards the city walls …
They were both cannon fodder and vanguard.
"It's a Goblin! Prepare to fire! "
Seeing the "sea" of Goblins charging towards them, the Dwarf soldiers on the city walls turned solemn. They raised their bows and arrows and shot at the same time.
With a swishing sound, thousands of arrows fell like rain into the sea of Goblins. In the blink of an eye, the weak creatures fell to the ground.
But … there were too many Goblins.
Under the command of the Dark Alliance army, their eyes were red as they brandished their low-quality swords, carried crude ladders, and raised their Short Bows to shoot at the city walls as they charged forward.
The Dwarven Steam Cannons on the city walls emitted loud sounds. Large steel balls were fired at the Goblin army, smashing the unlucky creatures into meat paste.
But no matter how many casualties there were, the Goblins didn't retreat a single step.
This was the tragedy of the weak. As one of the subsidiary races of the Dark Alliance, the Spirit-leeches and Dark Dwarves kept the Goblins as cannon fodder.
If they didn't fight with all their might, they would also die and implicate their own tribe.
After paying a huge price, the Goblins successfully reached the bottom of the city walls. Under the bombardment of the Gnome Mages' spells, they desperately built ladders and started climbing upwards …
The hand-to-hand combat had officially begun.
The Dwarven warriors roared as they waved their axes and hammers. They either split the climbing Goblins in half or hammered them into meat paste.
The Goblins either panicked or screamed crazily. But regardless of whether they were scared, panicked, or motivated, none of the Goblins on the city walls chose to retreat. Instead, they waved their weapons and hacked at the Dwarven warriors.
Perhaps the Goblins' abilities weren't high, and most of them weren't even level 10, but their locust-like numbers were enough to drown any Dwarven warrior …
Curses, screams, groans, the sound of arrows piercing through the air, and the sound of axes sinking into bones mixed together, rendering the city walls into a hellish scene.
In fact, because the city walls were too long and there were too many Goblins, the warriors of the Dark Still Alliance were quickly surrounded by the Goblins.
Wounds began to appear on their bodies one after another. The axes in their hands began to bend as they hacked again and again. Their breathing also became heavier and heavier.
But at this moment, they suddenly heard a burst of battle cries coming from behind them …
"Kill! For the Elves! Uh, no, for the friendship of the Dark Alliance! "
"Charge! Comrades! "
"Hurrah —!"
Accompanied by excited shouts, one after another, tall and slender figures rushed up the city walls.
There were both men and women among them. Some of them were clad in gorgeous armor and robes, while others were draped in the standard equipment of Blade City. Like a torrent, or like a sharp knife, they instantly charged into the midst of the battle between the goblins and the Dark Silence Alliance soldiers.
"F * ck! So they want to fight the Goblins! There are so many of them! "
"Haha! I'm the best at this! "
They laughed heartily, their faces ferocious as they chopped the Goblins to the ground like vegetables, and consciously began to drive them away.
The Goblins were shocked by the sudden addition of enemies.
They quickly fell into chaos, instinctively dodging and huddling together.
However, these fellows that had just gathered were quickly burned to ashes by the fireballs or pierced through by the ice blades amidst the rhythmic incantations ….
The Elves' skillful movements, the accuracy of each strike aimed at the opponent's weak points, and the flawless one-stop service of "torture, terrorize, expel, and magic dispel" seemed to be their profession …
"Elf … Elves?"
Seeing the players suddenly rush up the city walls and begin a frenzied slaughter, the Dark Dwarves and Underground Gnomes were stunned.
