Chapter 123, Underground Raid

The defenders on the city wall began to rotate.

A giant dragon soaring in the sky fell into the city.

One by one, the heartless swamp fishmen began to push the corpses on the city wall into the city.

The corpses were piled up on the inside of the city wall, almost reaching the same height as the wall.

The Kobold wizard did not burn the corpses in the city because they were mixed with a large number of their own warriors' bodies, and of course the majority were the bodies of the ratmen.

At the same time, they also need to meditate to restore their mental strength.

These bodies would have been thrown into the towering furnace in the center of the city as fuel.

But after two batches of corpses were thrown in, the fire element that was imprisoned in the blast furnace as an eternal flame began to become more and more violent.

So this approach was stopped.

Gradually, no one cared about these corpses that were pushed into the city.

Mixed and stacked together.

Even as time passes, stench and decay are inevitable.

But the defenders in the city were too exhausted.

Huo jumped off the Black Dragon Beast with a tired look on his face.

This war cannot continue like this. During this brief pause, he hurried to the city wall where the leaders of other races in the Wetland Kingdom were.

After the fire went away.

The black dragon beast dived into the corpses piled up inside the city wall and began to pick out its food.

No one stopped this from happening. When the battle just began, the soldiers on our side would be dug out from the pile of corpses and buried in the city.

But on the fifteenth day of this long war, I was so exhausted that I no longer cared so much.

And it's not just the black dragon beasts that do this. Those stunned swamp fishmen also like to secretly take something from the corpses, either as food, decoration, or weapon.

The flames would not burn for long, especially after a gloomy sky gradually appeared.

The sudden fall of dense drizzle made the originally peaceful battlefield even more stagnant.

The flame grew weaker.

until.

Completely extinguished.

The rats came again.

The diffuse pale ashes were compacted by the rats' trampling, and the pale-based earth slope grew a little higher.

The massive charge of the rat swarm became urgent and rapid amid the ruthless advance of the supervision team behind it and the sharp cries of the rats.

Until fighting and death come again.

The gradually strong smell of blood will push the fight to a climax. The rats who are pushed forward and have nowhere to go will become violent and crazy in the pungent smell of rust.

From time to time, balls of fire would whiz past the city walls and explode violently.

The cold-blooded Lizardman warriors now acted as supervisors, and some Gnolls were already trying to escape from this battlefield that was like hell.

The black dragon did not rise from the city.

The hazy rain is still falling.

A lizardman with bright red scales stood on the city wall. Some warriors began to gather behind him, and the ratmen climbing up in front of him were killed at will.

The only remaining eye was looking into the distance, at the back of the ratmen.

Shu Zhan knew that this guy was looking at him.

He kicked away a ratman warrior who was operating the catapult, climbed to the top of the catapult with the flag in hand, and stared at the red lizard from a distance.

The expression on his face was full of provocation and ridicule.

Shu Zhan felt that the damn red lizard was nothing without that damn dragon!

Until most of the warriors behind him had gathered.

The red guy jumped down from the city wall with his war club in hand, and took the initiative to rush into the surging tide of rats under the city wall. One by one, the warriors of the Wetland Kingdom jumped down from the city wall.

There are lizardmen, snakemen, and some swamp fishmen holding wooden staffs.

Obviously, this is not a wise decision and is almost tantamount to suicide.

But the red figure leading the way seemed to give these guys courage, allowing them to suppress their fear.

Follow behind.

Just as Huo had expected, the rat people finally came again, and they came much faster than he thought, much faster.

And there are more of them too.

Huo found it difficult to imagine what the future of the Wetland Kingdom would be, but if he wanted to win the war, he had to rely on the power of the dragon.

But the dragon was afraid of those evil creatures and was unwilling to approach the rear of the ratman army.

There are no more options.

The war cannot go on like this.

The ratmen that were blocking the road in front of him were cut off in one go. These ordinary guys could hardly pose any threat to the fire.

After the power of metal was tapped, Huo also had a sword on his body.

This sharp weapon can deal with weaker enemies more easily.

The fierce dragon might enveloped his entire body, but his eyes pierced through the crowd of ratmen in front of him and fell on the ratman general who was holding up the battle flag at the end of the rat group.

Move forward without stopping.

He wants to kill Shu Zhan.

This is indeed the best way to reverse the situation. In the chaotic moment when the commander falls, the dragon will soar into the sky, and the ratmen will naturally flee in a huge rout.

Fire can naturally recreate what happened before the old city was built.

This is a simple but effective strategy.

There is no concealment.

So what is Rat War’s response?

He did not move an inch, standing on the platform carried by the young ratmen.

Looking at the fire not far away with sarcasm.

It was at this time.

In the city.

A faint sound came from underground.

It was first noticed by the Black Dragon Beast that buried itself in the pile of corpses, and it looked puzzledly at the ground filled with slag and rubble beneath it.

Until the tiny sounds became louder and closer.

A crack appeared in the ground.

Then, it collapsed into a small underground cave.

An excited guy popped up.

But what he saw made him freeze.

A huge dragon was looking at the unlucky guy who suddenly emerged from the ground.

Perhaps they were wondering why food would pop up from the ground on its own.

When the Wetland Kingdom built this city, they used a large amount of slag and gravel to fill the ground and compact it. This did cause some trouble for the rats who tried to dig underground in the city.

But it's just a nuisance.

On the fifteenth day of the siege, the underground passage was opened, although the guy who was the vanguard was a little unlucky.

But it was obvious that after the tall city wall was crossed, a carnival was about to begin.

As if it was a chain reaction, caves appeared in the city, and a large number of fanatically cheering ratmen warriors swarmed out from the opened underground caves.
