The Elven army surrounded the Golden Tent Tribe like a tidal wave.
The heavy equipment was unloaded by the players, and the siege weapons were assembled.
Most of the siege weapons were produced by the Adorable Committee.
After the War Mission was triggered, many big shots started to produce these weapons and made a fortune by selling them to other guilds.
They used the technology of Bluestar as reference. Not only did they design catapults, but they also designed ballistas and siege cones.
Of course, with the improved magic guns as a precedent, these siege weapons were also magically modified by the players. They were engraved with magic arrays similar to the magic guns, and their power was far greater than before.
However, unlike the magic guns that had become "energy attacks", these siege weapons were still "physical attacks". They only relied on the fact that they were much bigger than the magic guns to successfully engrave magic onto them.
From this perspective, the principle was more like the archers' bows.
More importantly, through the magic arrays similar to the magic guns, the players could also rely on these big weapons to gain combat experience.
After the siege weapons were assembled, the players set up camp and rested while waiting for the order to attack.
Although there were magical beasts to hasten the journey, everyone was still a little tired after marching for such a long time.
Even if they could turn off the feeling of fatigue, they still had their Energy Points. If their physical condition was not good, it would affect their combat effectiveness.
While they were resting, the players raised flags with golden irises and fluttered proudly in the biting cold wind.
This was the flag of the Nature's Heart Guild.
It was the army of the Nature's Heart Guild that was attacking the Golden Tent Tribe.
The four major guilds were each in charge of an army. After entering the Death Desert, they split up and went straight to the four Orc tribes closest to them.
The Nature's Heart Guild was facing the Golden Tent Tribe.
According to Li Mu's plan, the four major guilds would attack separately. Then, after breaking through a few routes, they would regroup with each other. Finally, under his command, they would have a decisive battle with the main force of the half-orcs in the Desert of Death …
The plan was simple, but it was also very effective.
"Master Zero, this is the Golden Tent tribe of the Half-Orcs. It has the largest population among the four Half-Orc tribes near the Dark Mountain Range. According to the Half-Orc captives we captured, there are nearly 20,000 of them."
"Of course. Because the Orcs are preparing for war, the elite warriors in the tribe have been transferred to Sandstorm City. I estimate that there are only about ten thousand people left."
"The orc army isn't nearby. According to our intelligence … they should still be in the Sandstorm Tribe. As long as we can take this place down within a day, we can meet up with the other groups before they send reinforcements."
On a barren hill, Li Mu respectfully reported to Eve on his Brass Dragon.
In order to make it easier to deal with the Gold class that might exist in the Half-Orc tribe, every army was accompanied by NPCs of Advanced class and above.
The Adorable Committee was led by The Black Dragon Merril. The First Army was led by the Red Dragon Tiberias. The Autobot Guild, which was slightly weaker, had the Spider Queen Lolth. The Heart of Nature, which had to deal with the Golden Tent tribe, was led by the Oracle, Zero.
Hearing Li Mu's words, Eve nodded repeatedly as the Oracle, indicating that she understood.
Even though … She had already known everything Li Mu had said through spying on the players.
There were many Half-Orcs in the Death Desert, and they had organized a powerful army.
In terms of numbers, Eve knew that the total number of Half-Orcs was definitely several times that of the players.
If the Half-Orc army was fully assembled and stationed near the Dark Mountain Range, Eve would never allow the players to split up.
Fortunately, the orcs' army wasn't nearby.
Sandstorm City was the place where the Half-Orc army was gathered.
Eve more or less knew why the Half-Orcs did not assemble their army near the Dark Mountain Range and instead chose to gather in Sandstorm City.
On one hand, it was because Sandstorm City, which was directly connected to the Underworld, could support the supply of resources for the huge army.
On the other hand, if the Half-Orcs set off from Sandstorm City, they could directly enter the Underworld and bypass the rugged Dark Mountain Range to attack the Elven Forest.
The Dark Mountain Range had a complicated terrain. Lionheart King Imsh and his army of 30,000 took a few months to cross it. If the Half-Orc army followed the previous path, it would probably take even longer …
To maintain such a large army, the amount of resources consumed was not small.
Even with the support of the Sauron Merchant Group, the Half-Orcs could not march through the mountains for a few months like last time.
Otherwise, they would probably go bankrupt by the time they reached the Dark Mountain Range.
Of course, Eve guessed that the Half-Orc army chose Sandstorm City because it was the place where the World Tree Kingdom appeared.
After Eve handed in the letter of challenge, the Half-Orcs did not make any big moves.
From this perspective, Eve thought that the Half-Orcs were very likely planning to wait there for rabbits …
However, rabbits could only become prey because they were weak.
But if it was not rabbits, but a fierce tiger, then it would be interesting.
The players' army was such a fierce tiger!
It could be seen from the alert state of the Half-Orc tribes.
Even if Eve mentioned 100,000 troops in the letter of challenge, they would not believe it.
Otherwise, the Half-Orcs would have left some troops at the border instead of relying on a few large tribes to support each other.
In fact, who would have thought that the Elven Forest, which was still deserted last year, would suddenly be filled with hundreds of thousands of Elves?
Oh, no.
It was not last year anymore.
On the day the players set off, the world of Segers had already entered the first month of the new year.
Eve narrowed her eyes and looked at the Golden Tent tribe.
On the simple walls of the stronghold, Half-Orcs were already gathering.
At the same time, Eve also sensed a strong aura from it.
It was a Gold professional of the Golden Tent tribe.
According to the information collected by the players, it was most likely the chief priest of the Golden Tent tribe.
The Golden Tent tribe had more than one Gold professional. According to the information, there were two Gold professionals, which was the most among the large tribes nearby.
Since the other one was not here, it was most likely that he had been summoned by the Royal Court and became a member of the Half-Orc army.
From this perspective, the Half-Orcs' gathering of troops had weakened the large tribes at the border.
From afar, Eve could even clearly see the panicked expressions on the Half-Orcs' faces …
"It seems that they have received news from the other tribes."
Eve muttered to herself.
The 30,000 Elven army would not have made them so panicked.
The only possibility was that the other tribes had received news of being besieged …
"How is it? Master Zero, can we start the attack? "
Li Mu asked expectantly.
He couldn't wait any longer.
Because at this moment, the progress of the Heart of Nature was actually lagging behind.
From the map, the Golden Tent tribe was the furthest away for the players.
By the time they arrived, the other large orc tribes had already fallen into a fierce battle … …
If one were to enter the subchannels of the other three guilds in the battlefield channel, they could hear the crazy and excited roars of the commanders. If one were to open the video, they could even see the commanders' perspective of the magnificent battlefield.
In the Heart of Nature's battlefield channel, there were constantly screenshots of battles from other battlefields.
The projectile catapults, the volley of magic guns, the gorgeous spells, and the fearless charge of the players …
Just looking at it was enough to make the players' blood boil.
The provocation from the players in the other channels made the players in the Heart of Nature's army even more restless.
Everyone was eager to give it a try.
The war had already begun …
They had been waiting for this moment for too long!
This would be the first real siege since the launch of the Elven Kingdom server!
After hearing Li Mu's words, Eve looked at the players' campsite.
At this moment, ten magically modified trebuchets had been erected, five ballistae had been assembled, and one battering ram had been completed.
These siege equipment were prepared in advance, and the players had the help of magic, so it was not difficult to assemble them.
However, it was more troublesome to choose the players to control these equipment.
From the feedback from the other battlefields, the experience gained from the catapults and ballistae was terrifying …
The premise was that one had to hit accurately.
At this point, the players returned to the most primitive and fairest method in the online game — ROLL.
At the position of the catapults and ballistae, the players' excited laughter could be heard. It was obvious that a lucky player had been chosen to control the siege equipment.
"Not bad, get ready to attack."
Eve nodded and said to Li Mu.
"I'll leave everything to you."
After hearing Eve's words, Li Mu's eyes instantly became serious.
He bowed slightly to Eve, then turned around and shouted into the microphone, "Attention, catapults!
"Catapults, prepare to attack!"
Following Li Mu's command, the players who had been prepared for a long time instantly took action.
Pieces of prepared "ammunition" were loaded into the catapults by the players. Those were Magic Stones engraved with magic arrays, some metal fragments, and even "biochemical weapons" were mixed in.
The players controlling the catapults injected their magic into them and activated the magic arrays. Then, they released the ropes of the catapults and further activated the "Attraction" magic engraved on the catapults.
In the next second, the huge machine vibrated and emitted a bright light. The huge bearings rotated rapidly and ejected the "ammunition" …
As the projectiles shot up, the Magic Stones that were activated by magic instantly burned. Like meteorites, they drew a beautiful parabola in the air and smashed into the wall of the Orcs' stronghold …
Roars began to resound on the battlefield.
