Undead's second round of attack started with Nerubians as the vanguard. Not only could these bug-men Undead easily scale the city wall, the spider webs they weaved could also provide an easier way for the Undead troops behind them to scale the city wall.
After the last battle, the soldiers have understood the basic characteristics of the Nerubianss. At least after the fight, they will not be confused by the Nerubians's unusual fighting methods. Two or three soldiers can still defeat a Nerubians together.
But just repelling Nerubians is not enough, because at this moment more Undead have stepped on the spider webs to the city wall. Originally, with the hands and feet of monsters like skeleton soldiers and Ghoul, it was difficult to climb the city wall. Building a wall is not an easy task, so the guards of Durnholde don't have to face too many Undead at one time, but now they have to face being surrounded by Undead that are several times their own.
"Where did so many skeletons come from?" Aaron also joined the battle at this moment. Even for him, whether they were skeletons, Ghoul or Nerubians, they were targets that could be solved with one sword, but such a large number still made him a little stunned.
Aaron swears that the space in the basement of the Barov Family cannot accommodate such a large number of Undead. However, the number of Undead appearing at this moment is unusually large.
"It looks like these skeletons have been buried in the ground for many years." Vereesa stood behind Aaron and kept shooting at these Undead with arrows. Naturally, he also heard Aaron's question, "These skeletons should have been dug out from the cemetery, right?"
"These tomb robbers!" Aaron looked at the few skeleton soldiers closest to him. Judging from the traces of soil left on these skeletons, Vereesa's statement is very likely to be true. Unfortunately, knowing the reason for Scourge's troop expansion cannot directly lead to victory.
After the first batch of Nerubians who rushed to the city wall were defeated, Undead who came along the spider web had already established a foothold on the city wall and fought together with the soldiers.
By the dim light of the fire, you can also see larger monsters slowly running up on the spider web. There is also the sound of wings vibrating in the night sky, and you can see hundreds of Gargoyle flying towards the castle in a tight formation.
Under the cover of the night, Gargoyle flew very close to the castle before being discovered. At this time, it was too late to fire the crossbows. Even though many Gargoyles were scattered and fell to the ground because they were pierced by giant crossbow arrows, there were still more Gargoyles with ferocious expressions ready to rush to the city wall to attack the soldiers.
"Boys, it's time for us to take the field." Gryphon Rider, who had been prepared for a long time, faced Gargoyle under the command of Falstad, forcing Gargoyle to give up the target below and fight with the enemy in the air.
However, Gargoyle was intercepted but could not prevent the deterioration of the battle. Abomination slowly walked over and rushed to the city wall, giving the Undeads a complete upper hand. These huge monsters would give the soldiers a great sense of oppression just by standing on the city wall, not to mention that Abomination was a terrifying war weapon.
Even if it is Aaron, it will take a lot of effort to deal with Abomination. Even if he can deal with Abomination one after another, he still cannot prevent other soldiers from being suppressed or even killed by Abomination.
The only good news is that in order for Abomination to be able to function on the narrow city wall, the skeletons and Ghoul who were serving as cannon fodder had to be withdrawn first to avoid wasting their troops.
The most desperate thing is that after the soldiers finally paid a huge price to deal with Abomination, the skeletons and Ghoul waiting at the rear rushed up again, and the new batch of Abomination also stepped onto the spider web again.
This battle lasted from midnight to dawn. Even the energetic Wildhammer Dwarvess became extremely tired by this time of the battle, and their iconic loud voices became hoarse.
By the end of this battle, it had become a confrontation between the will of the Alliance soldiers and the numbers of Undead. For this group of soldiers who usually acted more as jailers, being able to persist for such a long time can be said to be a performance beyond the normal level.
In the end, it was these persevering soldiers who won the battle. The number of Undeads only seemed endless, not really infinite. By the end of the battle, the Undead side could no longer send even one Abomination, only the skeletons who keep falling and standing up are still fighting hard. Facing these skeletons, even if the soldiers are at the end of their strength, they can still chop down these skeleton soldiers who are missing arms and legs due to lack of materials with one breath.
"It's daybreak." Looking at the slightly white sky in the east, Aaron also breathed a sigh of relief. Even with his physical strength, he was still a little tired after fighting all night, but he was still much better than those soldiers who were slumped on the ground.
With the support of Aaron, the soldiers near him are in much better condition than those in other areas. At least the soldiers on Aaron's side can receive timely treatment from Aaron if they are only slightly injured.
Seeing the Undeads retreating under the rising sun, the soldiers on the city wall breathed a sigh of relief. However, they were too exhausted at this time and even let out a cheer.
"Finally, we got through it." Drake checked the status of the soldiers, and after arranging the rotation, he walked to Aaron, found an open space and sat down, and said to Aaron, "Thank you for your help. Without you, I don't know how bad the situation would be tonight."
As Drake said, the Undead's offensive tonight can be said to be continuous. In addition, a large number of Gargoyle launched attacks on Durnholde Keep from the air. If it were not for the support of Gryphon Rider, I am afraid it would not have been able to sustain it with only the ballistas installed on the Durnholde city walls.
On the other hand, the existence of Aaron also reduced the casualties of the soldiers. Although the direct assistance he could provide was limited, his shining Holy Light attracted many Undead to attack him. Just a lot of Abomination died in his hands.
"The current situation is not much better." Aaron sighed. His attempt to break through Undead's formation and find the manipulator directly failed, which made him a little uneasy. Only Undead appeared that night. Where is Cult of the Damned? Where is Syndicate? Where is Frostwolf Orcs?
The attack that lasted all night was composed of Undead. Even in the end, the Undead's offensive slowed down and no other reinforcements appeared. If the soldiers on the Durnholde side were not exhausted to the extreme, they might have been able to counterattack.
"It's better than..." Drake didn't finish his words, and suddenly showed a surprised expression. "The sound sounds like cavalry? Could it be that other reinforcements are coming?"
"Cavalry?" Aaron thought to himself, could it be that Silver Hand's reinforcements have arrived? It shouldn't be so fast, right? Unless they have been traveling long distances for a day and a night, there is no way they could arrive at this time.
