The sound of cannons and smithing filled the entire mountain range.
As soon as the green-skinned warlord of Dragoncliff Castle, Gelk – Calamity Tusk, fought with François, it immediately knew that it was no match for the canned shrimp in front of it. After two exchanges in the air, Gelk – Calamity Tusk's shoulder had an additional wound, and the shield on its other hand had an additional chip.
However, the battle in the sky obviously didn't end there. The wyvern was naturally braver and crueler than the pegasus, but in terms of speed, the wyvern was definitely not as fast as François's pure-blooded pegasus, Prague. In fact, after the two sides exchanged three more rounds, Gelk – Calamity Tusk was in a dilemma. The green-skinned warlord was thinking about running away, but at the same time, he was thinking about how he couldn't run away.
Of course, the green-skinned warlords liked a satisfying battle, but they didn't like a battle where they knew they would definitely lose and couldn't get up. Gelk – Calamity Tusk found that its battle style was this kind of battle. This made the green-skinned warlord unable to get up, but it couldn't escape either.
And François didn't intend to give Gelk – Calamity Tusk any more chances. After more than ten exchanges in the air, François, who could feel his mount starting to get tired, finally found an opportunity. Duke Winford swung his sword and pierced the wyvern's eye socket at the perfect time.
The wyvern screamed and tried to retreat, but a dazzling light suddenly burst out from the tip of François's sword, making Gelk – Calamity Tusk dizzy. Duke Winford forcefully pierced the unicorn sword, and black, red, and yellow liquid spurted out. François pulled the sword out again.
"Woo woo woo woo ~" The wyvern fell from the sky and turned into a meteor.
"Go down!" Seeing the wyvern fall, Duke Winford immediately patted the pegasus's reins, indicating for it to land.
Of course, the smart pegasus understood what its master meant. It spread its wings and glided down from the sky. Just as the wyvern landed, François's blade brushed past Gelk Tribulation Tooth's neck.
Just like that, the Dragon Cliff Castle warlord's head fell to the ground.
On the other side, the reinforcements of the Dragon Cliff Castle were also in a bad situation. Normally speaking, they had eight thousand people while the other side only had two people. This was not a fair battle at all.
That's right, this wasn't a fair battle at all, and it wasn't fair for Gao Cuike and Felix.
But for the Green Skin of Dragon Cliff Castle.
Gaultrek Gonison, a butcher, a legend. This butcher, known as the most 'failed' butcher in history, was born after the great Holy War. He was once an adventurer, until he ventured to the northernmost part of the Roof of the World Mountain Range and embarked on a great adventure near the Chaotic Wasteland.
Only three dwarves successfully returned from that adventure, but Gaultrek found a runic battle-axe – Ancestor Grimnir's Runic Battle-Axe. This was one of the two battle-axes of the Dwarven War God Grimnir (the other one was in the hands of the White Dwarves).
After Gaultrek returned, he found that his wife and children had died mysteriously. Just as he was grieving and planning to take revenge, he saw an illusion. This illusion pointed the truth to a Dwarf Lord, so Gaultrek killed this Dwarf Lord, all his personal guards, and everyone present. After everything was over, Gaultrek swore an oath to become a Dwarf Butcher, and began to pursue the glorious death destined by his fate.
However, he became the 'most failed' butcher because he always failed to seek death. No matter what strong enemy he faced, even if he deliberately pushed himself into a corner, Gaultrek was always able to kill all of them and resolve the most dangerous situations. His name gradually spread throughout the Old World. Coincidentally, during a 'window tax riot', Gaultrek rescued the bard Felix, who was arrested by the Rik Guards. After hearing Gaultrek's story, the bard was greatly inspired. While drunk, the two of them swore a blood oath. Felix would follow Gaultrek and remember his legendary story, while Gaultrek would bring Felix along and go on their adventures together.
Thus, the legendary duo's story began. They did not just limited to the following feats.
They killed a Giant Horned Beast in the Plague Mine.
During the Night of Mysteries, they killed an entire Cult of Perversion in Rikwald Forest.
In Ford City, the two of them fought against an entire army of goblins. In this battle, Gauche had lost his left eye, while Felix had lost his lover. Although the truth was very painful, the bond between them had become even stronger, and their strength had also increased.
They explored the depths of Eight Peaks Mountain Fortress. Felix found his Rune Sword, 'Calagur – Dragon Slayer'.
The two of them defeated a female Khorne champion and an entire Khorne army.
They killed a Chaos Warlock and his Orc army.
They wiped out a group of Empire nobles who believed in Tzeentch and killed a female Werewolf.
In the year 2499 of the Empire calendar, they defeated Gray Prophet Kwanero and his army of Ratmen in Nur.
They then defeated Gray Prophet Kwanero and his army of Ratmen in Kislöw.
They arrived at the Ridge of the World, rescued a Dwarf fortress that was besieged by a Chaos Tribe, and killed a Giant Dragon.
The two of them worked together to defeat an entire Chaos Tribe that invaded the South and a Green Tribe that attacked Kislöw.
They killed a Chaos Giant in Obien.
Gaultrek killed a Khorne Great Demon alone.
The two of them worked together to sink a Dark Elf Black Ark.
And now, facing thousands of green-skinned creatures, not only were the duo fearless, but they were also like tigers in a flock of sheep. Within a minute, Gao Cuike slaughtered dozens of green-skinned creatures, while Felix didn't lose out either. More than 20 green-skinned creatures and more than 30 goblins were shredded into pieces like cutting straw.
The duo came too quickly, like a tornado.
They could not leave their axes and swords. They could not escape.
The first three rows of Green Skins all died in a few minutes.
First, the warlord died on the spot. Then, facing the two murderous gods, the morale of the Dragon Cliff Castle's Green Skins fell to the bottom. They lost the courage to fight and screamed as they fled for their lives. In just a dozen minutes, the Dragon Cliff Castle's Green Skins, who had been slaughtered by more than a thousand people, collapsed and fled toward the South. Gao Cuike and Felix were obviously not satisfied with killing them, so they immediately gave chase.
The Dragon Cliff Castle's army collapsed as soon as it appeared and disappeared from sight.
The bizarre change caused a huge change in the situation of the entire battlefield. With the collapse of the Dragon Cliff Castle's reinforcements, the expeditionary army left a small part of the army to deal with Headhunter Quake's cannon fodder. At this time, Skarnik found himself surrounded on three sides. To the north was the Iron Peak Castle's army, to the east was Laing's knight army, and to the southeast, Belegar's Dwarf Army was approaching.
The Dark Moon Clan finally could not hold on. Skarnik was so angry that he cursed the Dragon Cliff Castle's Green Skins and Green Warlord Gelk – Jie Ya for being a bunch of trash. Then, the Eight Peaks Mountain general, who had no more cards to play, finally gave the order to retreat.
The whistle sounded again, but this time with a different tone. At this time, the Black Orc army had been completely wiped out by Laing's main attack, but less than 30% of the Eight Peaks Mountain fanatics were left. These loyal Dark Night Goblins immediately gave up the battle and let the cannon fodder take the place. They covered the retreat of the Eight Peaks Mountain general, leaving the entire battlefield to the Oker Orcs and Goblins who did not have time to retreat.
The new battle flag of the Dark Moon fluttered back and forth, and the Green Skin army was completely defeated. However, the dwarves could not catch up with the escaping Green Skins. No matter how hard Belegar and King Cazador ran, and no matter how hard the dwarves tried to run, the distance between them and the Green Skins was getting farther and farther. Belegar and Cazador, who knew that they could not catch up, could only give up.
It was already afternoon, and Belegar's army was very tired from the long battle. The army of Ironpeak Castle had forced their way to the battlefield. After fighting for three hours, they were also hungry and thirsty. They turned their attention to the Skarvin Ratmen and turned to fight them.
At this time, only the knights were left with the ability to chase after Skarnik. However, after a few hours of hard fighting, the heavy warhorses that the knights rode were also very tired. Heavy cavalry was not a unit that could fight for a long time. Even the warhorses of the Holy Grail Knights were the same.
At this time, there were not many soldiers who could chase after Skarnik.
Seeing this, Leon immediately rode on his griffin and issued an order, "Old Guard Dragon Cavalry! Ugor Archers! Listen to my orders! "
"Yes!" The old guard Dragoons and Ugor Archers immediately responded.
"Follow me and charge!" Laing raised his war hammer. Knight King rode on his Griffin and tried to chase after Skarnik.
However, the cunning Skarnik would not let Laing do as he wished. He immediately ordered the Dark Moon flag to fall, and the figure of the Eight Peaks Mountain general disappeared into the defeated Green Skin army. The old guard Dragoons and Ugor Archers who were in charge of chasing after Skarnik immediately lost their target.
Laing summoned lightning to destroy a dozen Night Goblins, but it was to no avail. His psionic senses were ineffective against the Green Skin. Now, even Knight King did not know where Skarnik went. The Dragoons and Archers could only try their best to chase and kill as many Green Skin as possible to accumulate battle merits.
The Old Guard Battalion Commander Raymond, whose whole body was covered in Green Skin blood and flesh, and even his mustache was clumped together because of the filth, also rode on his warhorse. He wore Dwarven rune half-body plate armor and held a Dwarven rune halberd in his hand. He tried his best to kill the Green Skin army, and at the same time, he tried his best to find traces of Skarnik.
But in the vast sea of green, it depended on luck to find where Skarnik was.
Rather coincidentally, this ranger knight who had once been a serf had always been very lucky. Raymond personally led a dozen old dragoons in a circle, and this old battalion commander just happened to see Skarnik, who was retreating on a goblin's back! The Old Guard pointed at Skarnik without hesitation and shouted to the Dragoons near him, "That thing is Skarnik! Fire! "
The Dragoons immediately raised their guns and fired in the direction of Skarnik from about 60 meters away.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
After the roar of the muskets.
Skarnik, who was sitting on the Goblin, shook for a while, then turned over and fell into the dust. Raymond still wanted to chase, but the Night Goblins had already rushed up to stop them. The Dragoons had no choice but to pull out their weapons to fight the enemy. After killing the Night Goblins, the Dragoons found that they had lost their target. At this time, Skarnik had turned over again on the Goblin. He even led the Wolf Riders and Squigg Cavalry to launch a wave of counterattack, killing the leader of the Ugor Cavalry Archers, General Ivan, on the spot. The Ugor Cavalry Archers were almost completely defeated. Fortunately, Laing arrived in time, but Skarnik had already retreated to the vicinity of the Titan's Gate.
At this time, the Green Skin army had begun to retreat to the Titan's Gate. Laing led some knights and cavalry to chase after them, but Belega anxiously shouted at Laing, "Brother Laing! Stop! Stop! Don't go near the Titan's Gate! "
"What?!" Laing was about to catch up with Skarnik when he heard Belega's shout. He was a little hesitant, but in the end, he chose to listen to the dwarf's advice. "Everyone! Stop immediately! "
Most of the knights and all the Old Guard obeyed Laing's order and immediately stopped. Although the nearest distance between them and Skarnik was only 30 or 40 steps away, the Knight King's order was absolute.
Only a dozen or so knights were eager to make a contribution and directly rushed towards the Titan's Gate. "Kill Skarnik, avenge our brothers, kill it!"
The next second, the Eight Peaks Mountain warrior who was sitting on the Goblin's back in pain had a hideous expression on his face. He immediately signaled the Night Goblins to do as they had planned. "Damn Belega! Damn it, we're not done yet, not yet! "
"Damn you stinky rats! Why are you doing this! Die for me! "
"Boom!!!"
With a loud bang, a scorching wave rushed out from the base of the stone statues of the dwarven ancestors, Granny and Grimnir. Accompanied by an earth-shattering bang, thick smoke rose into the air like a sandstorm. Scarlet flames bloomed beautifully, like enchanting and gorgeous flowers of the opposite shore, contending with each other in terms of beauty.
The two giant stone statues simultaneously aimed in the same direction and fell towards the location of the Titan's Gate! Hundreds of Green Dwarfs who could not retreat in time and a dozen or so knights who were eager to make a contribution were crushed into meat patties on the spot by the two giant stone statues. Amidst the smoke and debris, the Titan's Gate was blocked by the two giant stone statues. The collapsed stone statues blocked Skarnik's Green Dwarfs and the pursuing knights on both sides, firmly sealing the entrance.
Laing and the pursuing troops were stunned by the scene in front of them. The Knight King did not even dare to imagine how many of them would have survived if Belega hadn't warned them.
The fates of the Green Dwarfs that failed to escape into the Titan's Gate could be imagined. Leon led the remaining knights and killed all the Green Dwarfs with the help of Veronica's Witches who had rushed over.
"Despicable, despicable, Skarnik! This damned green, green thing has blocked our retreat! "
At the same time, Headhunter Quake, who was watching the battle from afar, also realized that the battle had been lost. He immediately led the elite Storm Rats, who were less than half of their original force, and hurriedly retreated to another tunnel entrance, abandoning the army that was still weakly attacking the dwarves on the battlefield.
"Don't even think about leaving!" At this time, François and his pegasus knights, who had already dismounted, appeared not far from Headhunter Quake. Together with François, the Patriarch, Paladin Captain Al Frey, his team of paladins and a team of ascetics appeared. "Headhunter, today is your end!"
Before his voice fell, the paladins had already rushed over with long swords and shields. The ascetics also waved their flails and joined in to snipe Headhunter Quake, not wanting to let them successfully escape the battlefield.
Headhunter Quake was forced to step forward and fight François again, but this time he finally met a strong opponent. The unicorn sword in François's hand was as fast as lightning, and carried with it an extremely dangerous pure light. If it were not for the dimensional stone plate armor that was hard enough, and the Gray Prophet's blessing on it was reliable enough, Quake would have been cut into meat paste by François.
The confrontation between the Dwarf Slayer and the unicorn sword burst into sparks. Headhunter Quake had already heard the sound of cavalry approaching from afar. Right Claw of the Morse clan finally used its last trump card, "Descendant of the Horned Rats, help! Help!"
François was about to continue his attack when a shocked expression suddenly appeared on Duke Winford's face. He could feel that something extremely filthy and terrifying had appeared, and it was coming towards him at high speed!
A spectre, a Skaven spectre, was wandering on the battlefield!
It was approaching at an incredible speed. It was definitely not a speed that any human or Skaven Ratman should have. As the spectre moved, only a green metallic light could be seen shining in the shadows. Wherever it passed, the ascetics and paladins would all fall to the ground with their throats slit, and then be cut into pieces, leaving behind a ground of minced meat.
François hurriedly withdrew his sword to defend himself. The light of the Lake God flashed, and the spectre's circular blade could not break through François's defense after three consecutive strikes. However, it was still able to force the Duke to take three steps back. Under the light of the Lake God, the spectre finally appeared.
Ruel Klos the Lurker, the Scourge Lord of Skaven. On the gloomy battlefield, it was just a blurry shadow that moved quickly. In its hand was a huge, constantly rotating circular blade that shone with a faint dimensional light. The sharp curved blade bounced outwards in a beautiful curve, cutting through all who stood in its way.
"Little warlord, you have failed. You must retreat immediately, or you will die here ~" The Scourge Lord of Skaven knew that it would be difficult to defeat François in a short period of time, so it forced François back with a few moves, then immediately rushed towards Alfred Frey. Headhunter Quake immediately signaled for all the storm rats to follow.
The paladins and monks were prepared to face the enemy, but in front of the Scourge Lord, their resistance was incomparably laughable. In the shadow, the circular blade kept spinning until a nimble hand grabbed it. Ripples from the dimensional stone reverberated in front of everyone. In an instant, a dozen paladins and monks were cut into several pieces, their bodies torn apart in the air. But in the eyes of the bystanders, all of this happened too quickly, as if it was an illusion. The shadow's speed had already surpassed the vision of mortals, and it rushed straight towards Alfred Frey.
The Paladin Captain was horrified and immediately activated Divine Shield. The shadow did not seem to be surprised by this result. It quickly turned back and waved its weapon. Under the precise control of a scalpel, the heads of more than twenty Paladins, two Pegasus Knights, and more than thirty Ascetics flew into the sky. The rest stopped in their tracks out of fear.
Relying on the power of the Scourge Lord, Headhunter Quake led his less than two hundred storm rats out of the encirclement and successfully withdrew from the battlefield.
The dimensional stone blade blocked François's unicorn sword. Ruel Klos the Lurker sneered at Duke Winford. The Scourge Lord and François exchanged two and a half moves like gods. When François prepared for the third move, the Scourge Lord immediately turned into a cloud of smoke and disappeared.
At this point, the curtain fell on the battle of Titan's Gate in a cloud of smoke.
The battle was over.
