Chapter 1959: You Orcs Have To Defend Yourselves

“How’s the situation in the Twilight Forest now?” Mag asked Connie and Rex after they left the city lord’s castle.

“The Roth Empire’s 200,000 northwestern allied forces were split into six forces, and launched an attack on the Twilight Forest. All the tribes along the borders have fallen, and the Roth Empire massacred all the tribes that they have conquered,” Rex said with a grave expression.

“Did they kill everyone?” Mag became grave too when he heard that. Such behavior was no different from the times of the racial war.

He couldn’t understand why Andre was doing this. Killing those innocent orcs would only worsen the conflict and make the orcs furious. It would also offend the other races. There were no advantages whatsoever.

“Yes.” Rex nodded. He was also shocked when he received the news. “The orc tribes are all fighting on their own. They are not the Roth Empire’s troops’ match at all. We have to go back as soon as possible to mobilize all the tribes. We have to organize resistance against the Roth Empire’s invading forces.”

“Lantisde and I will help you guys.” Mag flicked a glance at Dexter, who followed him out, and then whistled. Ah Zi appeared in the air. It hovered one round before landing in front of him.

“I will go to the Twilight Forest to check out the situation first. I can stop one of the six forces for you.” Mag leaped onto the griffin’s back, and said to Connie, “As for the rest of them, you orcs have to defend yourselves until the Peace Alliance’s allied forces’ arrival.”

The ground was trembling. It was caused by tens of thousands of cavalrymen moving forward together.

The sounds of the iron hooves stomping brought a terrible sense of oppression to the little tribe on top of the mountain.

The exhilaration from exterminating the steel eagle troop had dissipated. The orcs from the Uto Tribe looked increasingly solemn as they listened to the sounds of the iron hooves approaching.

However, fear couldn’t be seen on their faces at all.

Haga and Habeng stood on the city wall like two small hills. They looked down at the Roth Empire’s cavalry that was rapidly approaching the Uto Tribe.

The canyon was long and narrow. Only three to four steeds could make their way through at the same time. Moreover, the road to the Uto Tribe was winding and rugged. It was already extremely difficult to ride on horseback, let alone charge through it.

This terrain was a nightmare to the invaders, but to the defenders, it was a natural barrier.

Habeng spat, and angrily said, “Good fellows. They are indeed coming for our tribe. There are at least 20,000 to 30,000 knights. These sons of b*tches really take us seriously.”

“This matter was not going to end well after we got rid of one of their flying steed troops.” Haga helped him adjust his armor before patting on his shoulder hard and chuckling. “Are you afraid?”

“No.” Habeng laughed. “However, it’s a pity. I have wanted to go buy a few roujiamos from Boss Mag in Chaos City.”

“After this battle is over, I’ll bring you to eat them.” Haga chuckled too.

“Alright.” Habeng nodded. He looked at the Roth Empire’s cavalry in the canyon, and suddenly no longer found them hard to handle and terrifying.

The Roth Empire’s cavalrymen assembled at the bottom of the mountain quickly. Their formation maintained a safe distance away from the Uto Tribe. The orcs could see them assembling quickly, but they couldn’t bring any effective damage to them.

On the city wall, the archers and javelin throwers were ready, and the strongmen responsible for throwing the rocks were standing behind them.

The Uto Tribe didn’t have magic casters. Their terrain advantage and strength were their greatest reliance.

After an hour of confrontation, the Roth Empire’s troops that had finished assembling charged towards the Uto Tribe.

The cavalry led the charge, followed by the archers, and 10-odd magic casters in black robes made up the rear. The advance force of 3000 rapidly charged up the mountain.

“We have to get rid of those magic casters first.” Haga looked at those magic casters in black robes making up the rear with a solemn expression.

Judging from the badges on their chests, there were one 8th-tier magic caster and two 7th-tier magic casters among them, while the rest were 4th-tier and 5th-tier magic casters.

On the battlefield, the biggest use of the magic casters wasn’t their individual killing capability, but their assistance in helping the troops advance with magic, which would then influence the entire battle situation.

The Roth Empire’s army was powerful because they let the magic casters form an important part of their military system. They had continuously proven that this system was correct in actual combat.

The cavalry led the charge, and a 7th-tier magic caster in the rear lifted his magic wand, beginning to release his magic.

The originally rugged mountain road began to twist and change. The ground shook, and a slope that was 10-odd meters wide appeared, and quickly stretched to the Uto Tribe.

The cavalry that had difficulty advancing immediately increased their speed, and quickly charged up the straight slope.

“Why did the road change?”

“It’s an earth magic caster!”

The orcs on the city wall were shocked. The originally rugged mountain road that could stop the enemy from advancing had become a straight and flat road that led straight to the city wall. It could allow six knights to charge at the same time side by side.

“Don’t panic. Listen to my orders!” Haga gravely yelled. “Archers, get ready!”

The panic eased, and the orc archers aimed their arrows towards the sky.

“Release!”

With Haga’s order, hundreds of arrows flew into the sky from the city wall and the interior of the city, making a beautiful parabola as they rained towards those charging knights.

However, just as the arrows were about to land on those knights, an ice barrier appeared above their heads.

Dook, dook, dook!

The arrows made a series of sounds on the ice, making ice shards fly everywhere. However, the arrows couldn’t pierce through the ice barrier.

A giant ice slab hovered above the knights as they continued to charge up the mountain.

In the magic casters’ formation, the only 8th-tier magic caster was chanting. The tip of his magic wand was blinking, and he was looking at the top of the mountain sardonically.

“The arrows were blocked!” The orcs went white when they saw that. That was their most lethal attack, and yet it was blocked by a magic caster’s single spell.

Habeng drew out his saber, and angrily said, “These sinister fellows keep hiding. I will go hack them now!”

Haga stopped Habeng, and gave an order at the same time. “Javelins, launch!”

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Hundreds of several-meter-long javelins were tossed out by the strong orcs. The sharp javelins’ tips gleamed coldly under the sunlight. The orcs’ powerful strength gave these javelins terrifying speed.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The javelins landed on the ice slab, making dull thuds. The sharp tips pierced into the ice slab, but most of them were stuck in the slab. They couldn’t hurt the knights below it.

However, there were also dozens of javelins that pierced through the ice slab, and nailed the knights and their horses to the ground.

Dozens of big and small holes appeared on the ice barrier, but it was still hovering above the knights steadily.

“Catapult, release!”

“Catapult teams, get ready!”

“The children and the elderly will go into the cellar. Others, prepare for battle!”

Haga issued order after order calmly. At the same time, he aimed his arrow at that 8th-tier magic caster..
