Swamp Lord with an Intelligence System-Chapter 417 - 191: Undead Onslaught and Faction Movements (Part 2)
Using treants as shooting platforms.
His gaze was as sharp as an eagle, and his quiver was filled with 2 Stars thorny arrows.
In addition, many people have already switched to 3 Stars armor-breaking longbows.
They, along with the ancient treant guardians, formed a long-range strike force.
After the city walls were built, the cold-blooded cavalry began to station themselves.
Organized troops immediately filled the walls...
Even though they were cavalry, these Lizard-man legendary soldiers were ferocious and formidable, capable of standing ground even if they stopped charging at the enemy.
The guard force was already in place.
For Lear, the only suspense in this war was whether that dragon lich would come personally.
Early morning, November 22nd.
Over the Wilderness, an exaggerated sized army was marching swiftly.
The clear moonlight shone down, revealing countless pale skeletons.
Like a rushing tsunami, everything in its path was flattened, the thick necromantic aura corroding the vegetation in the Wilderness.
The wild creatures on the road were directly crushed.
No one could stop their advance.
Within the skeleton frames, bluish flames were burning one by one.
From afar, it looked like a sea of bluish flames surging.
Roar~
Suddenly, a deep roar echoed in the sky.
The silent night sky became even more eerie.
Swoosh, swoosh~ The sound of wings flapping arose in gusts.
The fire of the soul in the skeleton warriors below began to flicker wildly.
In the night, dark beings with wingspans over 15 meters, made entirely of bones with terrifying skulls, flapped their bone wings and swept over the undead army.
The impact of air currents caused a considerable commotion in the army.
In their hollow eyes, the fire of the soul burned fiercely, as if gasoline had been poured on it.
Their aura made people’s hearts tremble with fear.
Bone dragons!
Symbolic soldiers of the undead!!
These undead beings, buried in the Land of Burial and transformed by soaking in necromantic aura, are the arch-villains in countless minstrels’ tales.
Their initial level is as high as Level 17!
And at this moment, there were up to 20 bone dragons sweeping across the sky!
This was a terrifyingly powerful force.
On the foremost bone dragon, a dragon lich in a black robe sat on its head, its hollow eyes gazing downwards.
"Urge the army to speed up..."
At the end of its sight, it could already see the swamp wetlands illuminated by moonlight.
Its inner desires surged at this moment.
This was a battle to regain its power... no one could stop its advance!
No one!
—
Lorand City.
On the towering city walls, the powerful Guard Legion was in place, their eyes solemnly watching the beastman army slowly pressing towards the walls.
Countless strong bowmen had their hands on the bowstring, heavy siege weapons were ready, their capstan drawn, ready to be unleashed at any moment.
In the sky above, a vast number of griffins formed an impenetrable defense, their calls crisp and clear.
At the gate, two hundred-meter-tall stone statues drew their swords, crossing them in mid-air.
Their gaze was directed outward, stopping intruders in their tracks.
And directly ahead, countless beastman warriors stared fiercely at them.
War giants over 20 meters tall and more than 30 meters long roamed among the beastman army.
In the sky, countless Level 10 soldiers——venomous flying dragons, blocked out the light.
Siege machinery, marked with beastman’s rough design, was quickly being assembled.
A massive formation of beastman heavy crossbowmen had already taken their positions...
From above, the formations of both offense and defense appeared terrifying.
This was a war between Empires!
Dressed in a bright red noble robe, Firina stood above the city gate, gazing through the giant swords of the crossing statues at all this.
"Have we detected any other movements from the beastman?"
Her tone was calm without a trace of fluctuation, as if the terrifying beastman army before her was as insignificant as dust.
Behind her, Jasmine, wearing battle armor, spoke in a deep voice.
"Your Highness, the beastmen have launched attacks from seven directions, each direction led by a beastman prince..."
"Their goal is to swallow the entire Northern Province."
"Although the Empire has already dispatched troops to respond, the speed of the enemy’s attack was too fast, and we were caught unprepared, suffering defeat after defeat."
"Just recently, intelligence personnel discovered that a beastman army of over 200,000 is preparing to cut off Lorand City’s retreat."
"They want to isolate us from the whole Northern Territory, turning us into an island."
The entire Northern Province, with Lorand City at its center, had the most solid defenses and the strongest military force.
But correspondingly, the pressure from the beastman army was even greater!
Firina nodded slowly, the floating strands of her hair slightly swaying in her mind, as if rippling in water.
"In areas that cannot be held, let the army retreat... as long as our people survive, we can reclaim the land anytime."
"Yes!"
"What about the movements of the beastmen in the Wilderness?"
"They’ve dispatched an army of over 100,000 to enter it, seemingly intending to build a city in the Wilderness and completely occupy this land."
"Such a large appetite... is the Wilderness so easily conquered?"
Over the years, Lorand City had made great efforts, only to penetrate several hundred kilometers into the Wilderness.
The beastmen wanted to swallow it all at once, underestimating the Wilderness greatly.
In the depths of the Wilderness, just the Evil Gods she knew numbered no less than 3.
A few years ago, she had even encountered one personally...
The prosperous regions of the Main Plane had already been occupied by the Light Element divine spirits; those evil beings seeking to spread their faith could only expand into areas with little human presence.
