When the team reached a gentle slope one mile away from the castle, Nalant stopped the team and let the guards rest where they were.
Each of the guards was still frightened at this time, and their faces were indescribably pale.
"Everyone, please bring out water and dry food for a simple replenishment! The threat has not dissipated yet." Nalant ordered after seeing the Boris guards lying on the ground unwilling to move.
These people have not been trained for long-distance running in the past, and their current state is really different from that of Quick and others.
And Dark Creature has been successfully led to Quinte Castle, so the next plan is to be a oriole behind and complete the main task of the system. After all, ten Energy Points represent ten Sprites.
"Nalant, look, Death Knight is here!"
Before Nalant and the others could rest for long, Dark Creature came one after another. The first Dark Creature to arrive was Death Knight and several Headless Knight.
"Nalant, do you think Quinte can hold it?" Even though they were more than a mile apart, Boris still had lingering fears.
"It's not easy to say!" Nalant naturally hopes that Quinte will be unlucky, but it's really hard to tell now.
The castle of Quinte was not built on a mountain like Storm Territory, but on a flat land near a river.
Of course, although the castle is built on flat ground, Quinte Castle's defense capabilities are absolutely standard.
A moat more than ten meters wide was dug outside the castle, and the only access was a four- to five-meter-wide suspension bridge.
After passing the suspension bridge, there are still the towering city walls and the solid gate wrapped in iron sheets, which is really impregnable.
At present, the only shortcoming of Quinte Castle is that he lost too many guards this time, and only forty or fifty guards escaped with him.
If Quinte guards can reach hundreds, then guarding the castle shouldn't be a problem.
Time passed, and a few minutes later Hellhound, who was running slower, and some skeletons finally arrived one after another.
"Roar!" After all Dark Creature had gathered, Death Knight finally raised his sword. Following his order, all Dark Creature rushed towards the castle.
There was an immediate response from Quinte's castle. As Dark Creature approached, many arrows were shot out from the city wall, accompanied by several fist-sized gravels.
The arrows hit the group of skeletons. Except for a few unlucky Skeleton Soldier who were shot in the head, most of them were not painful or itchy for Skeleton Soldier. At most, they broke a few broken bones.
However, the several fist-sized stones were different. They drew an arc in the air and then hit the Dark Creature group, directly smashing many skeleton soldiers into pieces on the spot.
Often one stone can severely damage two or three Skeleton Soldier. The only flaw is that the trebuchet launches relatively slowly.
"This... turns out to be a trebuchet, a small trebuchet!" Boris exclaimed with eyes wide open.
Nalant was also a little surprised.
There are also trebuchets in this world, but trebuchets are considered a difficult craft in this world, and only great nobles can master them.
Little vassals and nobles like Nalant can't even think of getting it.
The reason is very simple. This thing is considered a strategic weapon in this world, and it is indispensable when attacking cities and castles.
Therefore, the great nobles will not let the trebuchet technology leak out, and the finished products are also strictly controlled.
Quinte Castle can own a small trebuchet, obviously because of his status as the heir of an earl.
Whoosh whoosh!
Bang bang bang!
While Nalant and the others were still surprised, the fighting over there was still going on.
Because of the presence of the trebuchet, those Skeleton Soldier became living targets.
After approaching the city wall for a hundred and fifty meters, the number of people continued to decrease. Even one Hellhound and two Headless Knight were unlucky enough to be hit by stones from the trebuchet.
Hellhound wailed directly, and his head was sunken and bruised.
As for the two Headless Knight, one of them was knocked to the ground and turned into black smoke. The other one was more lucky and only lost an arm.
Since it can become a strategic weapon in this world, the power of the trebuchet is not small, not much weaker than the solid artillery of previous and modern times.
It's just that the trebuchet is inconvenient to transport and not flexible enough.
Dark Creature's charge continued, and finally some Skeleton Soldier and Hellhound came to the moat. However, the moat did not seem to pose an obstacle to these Dark Creature.
I saw Skeleton Soldier and Hellhound jumping into the river. After about ten seconds, their figures appeared on the other side.
"It turns out to be amphibious!" Nalant also saw Dark Creature attacking a city for the first time. If it were a human race, even if it was wearing leather armor, it would not be possible to swim over. The heavy armor would be soaked in water and could be used as a lead ingot.
However, what surprised him even more was yet to come!
After Skeleton Soldier arrived at the bottom of the city wall, they began to climb the city wall with their bare hands.
The city wall made of stone is also very smooth, and special clay is used to glue the gaps between the stones.
But the Skeleton Soldiers used their white fingers to dig out the clay from the cracks in the rocks, and then began to climb up through these cracks.
Nalant felt his scalp numb when he saw this scene. He finally knew how Dark Creature were able to break through the castle without siege equipment.
Quinte The guards also discovered Skeleton Soldier's actions. After a brief period of confusion, the guards hurriedly lifted the rolling stone and threw it at Skeleton Soldier.
But there were too few people in Quinte Castle, some of them had to operate trebuchets, and there were Longbowman suppressing Skeleton Soldier below, so they couldn't effectively block Skeleton Soldier's climb.
Soon, the first Skeleton Soldier climbed onto the wall, followed by the second, third, and fourth... As more and more Skeleton Soldier climbed onto the city wall, the sound of fighting and wailing began to be heard from the castle.
"Nalant, look, that should be Quinte, he's on stage in person!"
At this moment, a Battle Qi light lit up on the city wall. It must have been that Skeleton Soldier saw Skeleton Soldier climbing up the wall, and Quinte also knew that he could no longer hide.
Although his cultivation level was accumulated through the accumulation of Warcraft meat and Battle Qi crystals, it was not a problem to deal with Skeleton Soldier.
With the addition of Quinte, it seems that Skeleton Soldier will be gradually suppressed.
"Roar!" At this moment, Death Knight, who had already arrived at the edge of the moat, roared again.
Following this roar, the Skeleton Soldiers seemed to have received some instructions and immediately moved towards the top of the city gate.
Wow!
Boom!!
A muffled sound was heard. It turned out that Skeleton Soldier and others had worked together to break the ropes that fixed the suspension bridge, and the retracted suspension bridge was lowered in an instant.
"Roar!" Upon seeing this, Death Knight immediately led five Headless Knights across the moat.
Two chapters will be updated first, and there will be two more chapters later!!!
