Chapter 243 So fast?
Chapter 243 So fast?
The light was clearly coming from a torch.
By the light of the torch, Ziwan saw the reflection of Zian's armor.
She was reflecting light all over.
She's wearing full armor today!
They arrived so quickly!
Ziwan turned to look at the middle layer of the wall behind him.
At the southeast and southwest corners of the wall, the soldiers who should have been on guard duty were asleep, leaning against the battlements.
Only the torches remained burning in the two corners.
There wasn't a soul in sight on the inner wall.
The lights in the main building had disappeared at some point.
He walked to the southeast corner of the wall, picked up the torch stuck in the shelf, and went down the narrow steps along the wall.
Seeing that he moved, Li Mosi waved to Zi Yi.
"Move forward slowly and quietly."
Zi Yi relayed the message to the team leaders in two languages, and the team leaders then whispered the message to their tribespeople.
The group controlled their breathing and slowly made their way to the entrance of the fortress.
The rustling sound of the grass being trampled gradually stopped.
They could hear snoring coming from inside the wall.
In the absence of light, the stone walls of the fortress are the darkest part.
The massive stone wall was as tall as two people, as if some enormous creature was about to crush it.
Looking at the stone wall, the tribespeople couldn't help but feel nervous.
Li Mosi looked at them.
Although somewhat nervous, Ziyi had already given a pre-battle pep talk.
They believed they could win under the leadership of their chief and elders!
Click—snap!
Two soft sounds came from behind the door, and everyone grabbed their weapons.
Li Mosi glanced at the spears, halberds, javelins, and crossbows raised by his people, and then looked at the weapons in his and Zi Yi'an's hands.
In addition to their usual weapons, each of the three of them also had a crossbow that was already cocked.
This was taken from Baron Stern's warehouse when they arrived.
Baron Stern has crossbows in his warehouse, so it's impossible that Baron Taliss doesn't have them too.
You can't do it without equipment.
Fortunately, although the two soft sounds were quite noticeable to everyone, they were not enough to interrupt the snoring.
Soon, the fortress gate was pushed open a crack.
Ziwang poked his head out from inside.
"My lord. The second gate is unlocked. The soldiers inside the third gate have crossbows, while the soldiers outside only have spears and swords. The soldiers inside the third gate have no family members."
Li Mosi nodded.
He looked at his two disciples.
"Proceed according to plan."
"Yes, Master."
Zi'an checked his weapons and equipment, while Zi Yi emphasized to the tribesmen.
Li Mosi had already made plans for them.
Now is the time to execute!
He then looked at Hagi Saint.
"Stay close to me."
"Uh-huh."
The saint nodded vigorously.
When the tribesmen responded, Li Mosi raised his hand as if making a knife, and faced the fortress.
"Walk."
ga-
Zi'an suddenly flung open the fortress gate, and the tribesmen rushed inside, weapons in hand!
rustling sounds...
The loud noise immediately silenced the snoring.
Clang clang clang clang—
The sound of Zi'an running was impossible to ignore!
Just as the clansmen responsible for surrounding the inner side of the outer wall ran in, Zi'an rushed to the gate of the middle wall.
There was another brief but loud noise, and the gate of the middle layer of the wall was also opened!
Most of the tribesmen quickly ran towards the middle layer of the wall!
The gates of both the outer and middle layers of the perimeter wall are on the south side, and the buildings inside the outer perimeter wall are also on the south side.
However, the gates of the inner wall and the buildings in the middle of the fortress are all on the north side.
They must get under control as soon as possible!
Only then did the soldiers sleeping on the outer layer of the fortress come out to check.
"enemy!"
"There are enemies!"
Shouts erupted from their mouths instantly!
They couldn't see the situation clearly.
But they knew there couldn't possibly be that many people inside the fortress!
And all of these people were carrying spears!
"Lay down your weapons or we will not kill you!"
"Surrender and you will not be killed!"
The new tribesmen and goblins shouted together.
Warnings, calls for surrender, and the squeaking of goblins mingled together, breaking the tranquility of the night.
The battle has officially begun.
Soldiers and tribesmen on the outer perimeter of the fortress faced each other against the entrance of the building, and Zwan stepped forward.
"Put down your weapons, friends. Gaimour killed my family; this is my fight against him."
The soldiers gathered at the door frowned in confusion.
Seeing that the people surrounding them made no further moves, they gradually retreated back into the house.
……
"gather!"
"Grab your weapons!"
"Get up, all of you!"
"Torch!"
The soldiers in the middle layer of the fortress realized what was happening and grabbed their weapons, wanting to go out and investigate.
They even knew to light torches before going out.
But the tribesmen have successfully surrounded them.
"Surrender and you will not be killed!"
"Lay down your weapons or we will not kill you!"
"You won't get hurt if you don't resist!"
Even with weapons, they couldn't win!
"Surrender and you will not be killed!"
Zi'an stepped forward to stabilize the situation as planned.
The torchlight shone on Zi'an, illuminating his armor and the emblem on his chest.
They are nobles!
It's Baron Stern!
They simply can't win!
"Go back!"
Zi'an spoke again, and the surrounded soldiers trembled.
"Go back inside! You won't get hurt!"
"yes!"
The soldiers responded instinctively.
They looked around at their tribesmen.
Although it's unclear why there are goblins here, this group certainly didn't launch an attack.
The soldiers glanced around haphazardly before gradually retreating back into the house.
The soldiers guarding the walls and corner towers were not under control, but they had no other equipment besides spears!
OMO
They saw the situation clearly, but there was nothing they could do.
The outer layer of the fortress is breached.
The middle level of the fortress is breached.
Seeing that the barracks and other middle-level buildings of the fortress were under the control of the tribesmen, Li Mosi, Zi Yi, Zi An, the Holy Maiden, and the warriors turned to look at the inner wall.
bang bang——
Zi'an went up and tried to push and pull the inner door a few times, but the door had already been bolted shut.
Li Mosi glanced at the gate, tucked the spear under his arm, and raised the crossbow with both hands.
"Lift it up!"
Ziyi quickly translated.
"Aim the crossbow at the wall!"
The warriors with crossbows imitated the postures of the chief and elders, aiming their crossbows at the top of the wall.
……
"Damn it! Why is it so noisy?"
"Is there an enemy?"
"Get up and get ready!"
The wandering soldiers guarding the inner wall had already heard the shouts.
On the wall, the captain sat up with some dissatisfaction.
"What's the rush! There are still people on the outer and middle layers!"
"Exactly! Let them fight first!"
"What does this have to do with us!"
Several soldiers guarding the inner wall with their captain also shouted in dissatisfaction.
They weren't nervous.
They're just complaining.
But they soon realized something was wrong!
Why are there so many footsteps in the middle area?
Even if all the mid-level soldiers were mobilized, there shouldn't be this much commotion!
"Surrender and you will not be killed!"
"Go back!"
"Go back inside, you won't get hurt!"
"yes!"
A loud yet childish female voice rang out from the north, followed by a response!
The footsteps just now weren't heading south, they were heading north!
bang bang!
The door beneath them rattled as if on cue.
That's when they realized something was wrong!
The captain quickly picked up the crossbow and the cocking device from the ground.
"Load the gun! The enemy is coming!"
Why was it breached so quickly?!
This is a fortress with three walls!
The wandering soldiers on the wall and the captain together used the stringer to string the crossbow and put the bolt into the groove.
The captain was the first to wind up the gun, then turned around and poked his head out from under the wall.
"Shoot when you see the target."
Seeing the shadows behind the wall move, Li Mosi turned around and pulled the trigger at the same time.
whoosh-
The crossbow bolt pierced the head of the wandering soldier captain.
Only one thought remained in his mind.
"So fast?"
