"We'll attack tomorrow morning."
"Tomorrow? No! We're not ready yet. "
Bru shook his head and refused.
"You've already prepared for a week. There's no time for you to dawdle. Lord Halla has already protected your refugees. As a price, you must help us take down this city."
The Naga said.
Was this a threat?
Bru and Zeba glanced at each other. The lives of their compatriots were in their hands. This was like grabbing their throats. They had no choice.
"We will, but not in such a risky way."
"This is our meticulous plan. You just have to do as we say. I can guarantee that you won't suffer many losses."
The Naga seemed to be very confident. If it was just this magical device, Zeba didn't think that it would be so easy to destroy the Dwarves. Even if they had less than ten thousand survivors, they still had a large number of dangerous weapons in their hands. Moreover, there weren't only Dwarves in the city. There were also Humans and other Demons.
Zeba had also heard that a splinter faction of the Human Empire had joined them. This had undoubtedly increased their strength by quite a bit. If they attacked recklessly without knowing the enemy's strength, it would be very easy for them to be wiped out.
"This is Halla's will. I'm only the messenger. You aren't part of the Wussen Empire, so naturally you can disobey. However, I will tell Halla the truth. Please think carefully. Alright, it's already very late. I hope the two of you can think carefully. Tomorrow morning, I'll await your reply. "
Winged Dragon's words had already reached this point. The two Beastmen's faces had already become as dark as the night. They didn't say anything and just turned to leave.
Seeing their departing figures, Winged Dragon knew that they had no choice. He turned back and looked at the magical device that was being installed. His eyes gradually became gloomy.
The next morning, the bugle horn sounded. The Beastmen army was already in formation, ready to attack. The day had finally arrived. They were going to attack this huge city.
However, they didn't have any siege weapons. They only had the magic of the Magi. Just as the soldiers were wondering how they should knock on the door or climb up the high walls, suddenly, an army of different races appeared in front of them. They were extremely well-equipped and their movements were clean and efficient. It was obvious that they were a well-trained army.
They had transformed a carriage into a pedestal, and on top of it was a statue that resembled a human. Its hand was pointing forward, and the back of the statue was filled with red jars that emitted a dangerous light.
At the same time, the Crowmen who could fly appeared in the sky. They were circling outside the city walls, probably investigating the situation inside the city.
However, that was useless. Due to the magic on the city walls, no one could see the situation inside from the outside. They could only see the empty city.
Just as the Orcs were wondering what these strange fellows were going to do, the Naga appeared. He looked at the army behind him. Bru immediately raised his right fist, and everyone raised their weapons. This was the signal to prepare for the attack. A tense atmosphere filled the air.
The Snake-Winged Dragon nodded in satisfaction. It then came to the statue and placed a black energy crystal on the base of the statue.
In an instant, the cloudless sky turned pitch-black, and the earth darkened as if it were the end of the world. The magic casters around the statue immediately ran away from it, as if something terrifying was about to happen.
Following which, the statue began to tremble. No, it was the earth that was shaking!
The sudden earthquake caused everyone to be on guard. A powerful force exploded from the statue, and it turned into a pillar of light that shot into the sky. A strong gust of wind swept up the surrounding dust, and a magic shockwave spread out.
The soldiers could not open their eyes because of the strong wind that brought snow and sand. Lightning flashed in the sky, and within the Imperial City of Gotham, countless star-like spots of light appeared.
Countless black lightning appeared from all directions, attacking the same place at the same time. Even a large-scale defensive magic like the city walls could not stop these lightning bolts. The black lightning tore countless cracks in the sky above the city. One of the lightning bolts hit the city gate, and with a boom, the shape of the lightning was engraved on the gate. Then, with a muffled sound, the huge gate shattered, and the gate was broken open.
The light from the statue quickly disappeared, and the black lightning also stopped. The Naga turned around and looked at the crowd. Bru immediately shouted, "Charge!"
Before he finished speaking, a large group of Orcs rushed into the city. The black lightning destroyed the magic facilities in the city, and the city walls were also useless. Just like that, they rushed into the high walls. However, what welcomed them inside was an evil spirit wandering in the fields …
…
In his daze, Gilbert seemed to hear someone calling him. He opened his eyes and suddenly coughed violently.
"Are you okay?"
It was Lilith's voice. Gilbert raised his head and looked around. It was like he was in a wet cave, dark and damp, and the walls were covered in seaweed-like moss. There were many people around, and Gilbert immediately recognized them as the people on the ship.
"What happened? Where is this place? "
"I'm not sure, but it's very likely that this is not the ground."
Lilith replied.
Gilbert stood up, only to hear a familiar voice coming from the light.
"Is that General Gilbert? General Gilbert, are you there? Hurry and save us! "
He walked towards the light and was shocked to find that outside the cave was a world of water.
At that moment, he understood what Lilith was saying. This was the bottom of the sea!
The seawater was isolated by magic, and there was only air in the cave. Gilbert could not believe what he saw. He reached out and tentatively touched the intersection of water and air. He was mentally prepared to be injured, but his fingers stretched out and soaked in the seawater.
They could go out!
Gilbert immediately realized this, but Lilith immediately warned him, "This is the deep sea. The pressure of the water can squeeze the air out of our lungs in an instant. We can't swim back to the surface."
Hearing this, Gilbert's heart trembled and he did not pay attention to it.
"Then what should we do?"
Lilith was silent. She looked as if she was thinking about something.
"They brought us to this place instead of letting us drown in the sea. There must be a reason. Perhaps we can negotiate with them."
Negotiate.
What kind of negotiation could captives make with their enemies? Gilbert felt even more desperate.
However, at this moment, a few murlocs appeared outside the cave. Their appearance was so sudden. Just as everyone was scared out of their wits and looked at these monsters that looked like them but had fish tails in horror, they threw the fishing net containing the live fish into the cave and then left the cave with a flick of their tails.
Looking at the struggling fish on the ground, Lilith's heart tightened. Did these murlocs want to raise them?
