Chapter 312: 310 City Wall Battle
Translator: 549690339
Simply relying on the Undead Dragon would make it impossible to compete with the Metal Dragon, especially when the Metal Dragon possesses the outlandish power of the Luminous Golden Flame.
Guided by the Luminous Golden Flame, the Metal Dragon was entirely suppressing the Undead Dragon.
Of course, the scene was considerably shocking, and the omnipresent dragon shadows provided a foreboding sense of the final battle.
Below this terrifying battlefield, the warriors of Har City, who had barely left the front lines, found no rest.
They were hastily hauling materials from within the city, starting to repair the damaged city walls.
The seriously damaged parts of the wall had to be temporarily filled with materials such as dirt, rocks, or ice blocks, conjured by the Spellcasters’ magic.
In the heat of the battle, they couldn’t afford to be too particular.
For instance, the section of the wall previously hit by the Luminous Golden Flame had been severely damaged. It was almost impossible to repair it quickly using ordinary methods.
Now, the gap was filled by a column of sand and rock that had risen from the ground. Smaller crevices were covered with ice shards serving as patching material.
With the Metal Dragon’s involvement, the battle in the sky was going smoothly.
However, this didn’t mean Har City could ignore the enemies on the ground. From some point onwards, hordes of undead creatures had begun to charge towards the city.
The bustling repair efforts on the wall were naturally intended to better withstand these undead. Troublingly, the Spellcasters hadn’t recovered much of their magic power, and the enchanted arrows were almost depleted.
Due to the destruction caused by the Fury of Wild Thunder, many of the Magic Cannons sent by Stania had become inactive
With their ranged attack options severely limited, the warriors in Har City were preparing themselves for close contact combat.
Fortunately, the road leading to Har City had been bombarded with various spells, creating pits and holes everywhere. The presence of undead bodies also made the terrain incredibly complex and treacherous.
This made it extremely difficult to bring large siege weapons like catapults and engineering towers to the front of the city.
Soon, a group of ghouls took the lead and rushed to the bottom of Har City’s walls. Without engineering towers, they used their sharp nails to scratch and claw up the wall.
The walls of Yellow Sand City, largely composed of relatively soft sandstones, struggled to withstand this assault.
In addition to a few enchanted arrows and Spellcasters still raining down on the undead army from above, the warriors on the wall also lifted the large stones beside them, brutally hurling them at the undead below.
The sources of these stones were mostly buildings within the city. Some Stone Giants from benevolent factions were continually transporting newly demolished stones to the city walls.
Even so, many ghouls and other undead creatures managed to climb the city wall, and their numbers were increasing.
Left with no choice, given their superior numbers, the undead creatures were using the dead bodies, limbs and rocks to create improvised ladders to scale the city walls.
This sort of planned attempt couldn’t possibly have been made by the mindless undead. Unbeknownst to them, a considerable number of Death Knights had already appeared at the foot of Har City.
They were natural leaders among the undead creatures. Under their command, an increasing number of undead creatures began to scale Har City’s walls.
Low-level undead like ghouls weren’t much of a threat. Even if they climbed the city walls, they wouldn’t pose much danger to the fully-armed elite warriors.
But aside from ghouls, many more troublesome undead creatures had started to climb over the wall as well.
A fully-armored human knight had just killed a ghoul when he saw an undead body wrapped in a dark-negative energy staring at him intensely.
It was a Night Zombie
Suddenly, a strange light ray emerged from the Night Zombie’s eyes, aiming straight at him.
It was the Death Gaze!
Caught off guard, the human knight was hit by the Death Gaze. Although it wasn’t fatal, he still felt suffocated, as though he couldn’t draw breath.
If he died from the Death Gaze, his body would transform into a brand new Night Zombie within twenty-four hours.
Enduring the discomfort, he bellowed and used his sword to sever the frontal zombie’s head, then forcefully kicked the still screaming skull off the city wall.
The zombie’s headless body instantly dropped to the ground.
Just as the human knight was catching his breath, an elongated sticky tongue suddenly lashed around his neck.
As the sticky fluid on the tongue seeped through the gap between his helmet and breastplate, the knight felt a growing numbness in his body.
He struggled to turn around and saw that his assailant was an undead creature that looked no different from a regular zombie.
Yet with his extensive experience, he instantly identified it as a powerful Demon Soul Corpse.
But given his current physical condition, it was difficult to fight back.
After the Demon Soul corpse was killed by one of his fellow knights, this human knight had to retreat to a safe zone due to his dire physical condition.
As more and more undead creatures climbed onto the city wall of Har City, there were many people with similar experiences.
And this could still be considered fortunate. A significant number of them had met their end on the city walls, never to return.
This human knight was clearly not one to stay behind and watch his comrades fight a bloody battle from afar.
After receiving simple medical treatment, he put his helmet back on, preparing to go back to the wall and continue fighting.
Suddenly, his vision blurred, and he thought he saw a figure dart past him.
He quickly spotted the familiar figure on the city wall, but he found it hard to believe that it was the same person he had just seen.
The distance from here to the wall was not short. Could someone have reached it in the blink of an eye?
The figure was dressed just like an experienced mercenary, so it didn’t seem possible for him to use the Flicker Skill
Suddenly, the human knight’s expression changed as a realization dawned on him.
With the look of a middle-aged man, a scruffy appearance, and the outfit of a mercenary
Could this be Konoheim, the Master of the Dragon Bone Wasteland, from the rumors?
