The night was exceptionally cold. The carriages were buried deep under the snow. A group of tall Gecarins were desperately digging in the snow. Many of their comrades were still buried under the snow.
It had been two hours since the avalanche happened. None of the companions that had been dug out were still alive. Once they were buried under the snow, a large amount of snow would press down on their chest, causing them to suffocate and die quickly. In addition, the soldiers were wearing heavy armor, so it was difficult for them to struggle out from under the snow. Thus, if they continued to dig, they would only find more corpses.
Gray Death understood this. They had no tools. Now that all the soldiers were frozen, if they continued, their hands might be frozen and everyone was very tired.
But the carriages were still below. Without food, how could they return?
"Sir! We've dug the carriages! "
At this moment, a soldier shouted. Gray Death immediately walked over.
"Quickly drag the food out. Don't worry about the carriages. Dig as much as you can! Count the people! Have you finished counting? "
"Sir! Count is finished! Only … only two thousand seven hundred and forty people are still alive. "
The soldier's voice made everyone around him shut their mouths. Gray Death gritted his teeth and made a gurgling sound. Nearly 10,000 elite troops had been reduced to such a miserable state before even fighting.
This was definitely the most humiliating battle in Gray Death's military career. He would never forgive this forest race. They were all accomplices! He wanted to raze this forest to the ground!
Looking at the exhausted soldiers, he clenched his fist.
"Everyone! It's about time. Have a good rest. There will be a fierce battle tomorrow. If you want to avenge your comrades, use all your strength to rest now! "
Gray Death shouted.
There was no other way. They had nowhere to go. The supplies buried under the snow couldn't be retrieved in a short time. If they wanted to dig them out, it would probably take a day. But by then, no one in the army would be able to hold a weapon.
Without supplies, they couldn't retreat. It would take a few days to return.
But there was still hope. Without the carriages, this army of more than 2,000 was a nimble infantry regiment. They didn't need to be afraid of any traps or ambushes. They could directly rush to the enemy's headquarters and catch them off guard!
Ash Death revealed a murderous look in his eyes. The key to victory was the element of surprise!
At dawn, before the sun rose, a group of Gokalin soldiers suddenly emerged from the snow. They had rested for a day, and now was the time to vent their anger.
"Go!"
Ash Death yelled as he led a group of lightly armed soldiers and quickly approached the Orc City.
The Boar-Man who led the way was gone. He was probably buried in the snow. But it didn't matter, Hui Si already knew where the Orc City was. It had been here before, otherwise, it wouldn't know about the little demons in the forest.
This troop moved quickly with a rather rhythmic pace.
Strangely, they didn't encounter any ambushes or traps along the way.
Ash Death looked around but didn't find any traces of the demons.
It cracked a smile.
"As expected! It must have thought that we escaped and is now having a celebratory feast! "
Last night, it had asked the soldiers to dig a snow cave and hide in it to sleep. It could not only keep warm but also hide itself.
Those demons couldn't see them, so they probably thought that they had escaped in the night. Moreover, they definitely didn't think that even after suffering heavy losses, Hui Si's troops would continue to attack, so there were no traps here! There were also no ambushes!
The soldiers stepped on the snow and left footprints in the snow. At this moment, they could see a tall wall in front of them.
They were almost there!
Hui Si could imagine the expressions of the little demons when they charged in. They would kill in all directions and those little demons would run away in panic. They would kneel down and beg for mercy, but it would be useless. It wouldn't forgive anyone.
Perhaps that Ox Demon would be a bit troublesome, but it didn't matter. A demon that only knew how to use underhanded methods and didn't dare to fight openly, how could it defeat an experienced demon like him?
Hui Si saw it. He saw the two Rabbitmen soldiers holding tags in front of the city gate and they also saw Hui Si's troops. They immediately threw away their spears and armour and ran away. Maybe he wanted to inform his clansmen, maybe he wanted to close the city gate.
But it was too late now!
"Brothers! Charge!!! "
Hui Si held his giant hammer and charged in with his troops, but he suddenly found that there was no gate and it was just an empty city. He didn't know where the two rabbits had run off to.
When all the soldiers charged in, they were all stunned.
There were only broken walls and two sets of footprints in the snow.
No one lived in this city. They had been tricked, tricked by the Boar Clan! This wasn't their headquarters! They had been tricked!
Hui Si's eyes opened wide. With his decades of battle experience, he felt that things were very bad!
"Everyone! Quickly retreat!!! "
He used the loudest voice he had ever used in his life to shout, but it was too late. The entrance was suddenly sealed by a white waterfall.
The soldiers swung their weapons, but they were stuck to the wall. Some of the soldiers accidentally touched it and their skin turned into blood.
This wasn't a waterfall, it was terrifying spider silk!!
Hui Si's heart was beating wildly. He had never heard of a spider that could instantly block a ten meter tall gate. But it didn't matter, he had thought of a way.
"Move!"
He charged out from the side of the soldiers and the giant hammer in his hand exploded with a shocking amount of energy, hitting the wall beside the gate.
Peng!
But there wasn't an explosion as expected. There wasn't a hole in the wall, it just cracked.
"Strange, what's with this feeling?"
Hui Si felt as if he had smashed into a swamp. He wasn't happy at all. He pried open a brick and found that the wall was also filled with spider silk.
They were trapped.
Hui Si's eyes opened wide and he suddenly raised his head.
"Brothers! Climb up! "
He shouted. But at this moment, the screams of the soldiers came from behind.
"Ah!!!"
"Strange! A monster!! "
Ashen turned around abruptly and saw a white monster appear in his field of vision.
Human?
No, it definitely wasn't a human. It just had a similar body shape to a human. Her body was slender, at least two and a half meters tall. Her entire body was white and there were six giant spider claws on her back. They were also translucent.
She floated in the air and attacked crazily with her six claws. The armor was like a thin piece of paper to her, a light poke would cause a large hole. In the blink of an eye, there were sixty to seventy corpses on the ground. And swords were useless against her! They couldn't hurt her at all. Some Geckarin wanted to grab her claws while she was attacking and pull her down. But they didn't expect her to be so strong. She raised her claws and flicked them into the air or directly hit the wall to their deaths.
Seeing this, Hui Si immediately raised his hammer and jumped into the air, hammering the enemy.
