Dawn of the Ash Tower

Chapter 23 Siege


The torch illuminated the dark cave, leaving behind countless messy shadows.The battle has been going on for some time, although Mona has warned Mayor Bender that the cavemen have noticed the existence of the camp and their attack may come at any time.But the mayor firmly believes that those stupid cave creatures are not enough to pose a sufficient threat to this camp. The soldiers of Sweetwater Town can deal with the cavemen, and his self-confidence is justified.As a relatively affluent town, Tianshui Town does not have many armed forces, but it is well equipped.Even the armor of those guards made the three soldiers of the Frost Legion jealous.This is also a normal thing. As a commercial town, Tianshui Town needs good order more than other places. At the same time, in order to resist robbers, the guards in the town can indeed be called stronger than other towns.

However, as the female warrior said privately to others, although the guards in Tianshui Town are well-equipped, those people are not warriors. They can be used to maintain law and order and even deter robbers, but they are not suitable for the battlefield.Facts have proved what Mona said, the caveman's surprise attack is expected, but it is also reasonable. These large and small caves are the caveman's backyard, and they want to spend their lives quietly in other people's backyard. It would be too much to underestimate these cavemen after a whole winter.But what a few people didn't expect was that the attack intensity of those cavemen was far beyond their imagination.

"Gods of the Northland, when did there be so many cavemen in Dragon's Back Mountain!" Hahn sighed as he knocked down an enemy who tried to climb up the wall with an axe.

"I only saw three big guys, hell, when did these guys become so united!" "Monkey" shot down a caveman who was about to throw stones in the distance with an arrow, and echoed.

Indeed, the current situation is very pessimistic. A large number of cavemen surrounded the camp like a tide. If it weren't for the three-person high wooden wall blocking their footsteps, the residents of Tianshui Town would have been unable to resist. up.However, even so, a large number of cavemen also made this line of defense crumbling. These wooden fences were not built for fighting, and they never thought they would be hit by such a fierce offensive. Fortunately, Cheese used spells to reinforce them in time. How strong the wooden walls are, otherwise those cavemen only need to throw stones to smash the outer walls of the camp.

This is a very abnormal phenomenon. Judging from the previous experience of the Frost Guards against cavemen, these creatures with low IQs all have a big man as their leader and appear as a tribe. Because of the lack of food, a group of cavemen with a leader The number of human tribes often does not exceed one hundred, and even if two tribes meet, they will fight endlessly because of food. Even if the enemy is present, they have never worked together.But the current group of cavemen, both the number of its members and the number of leader cavemen that have been discovered, are far beyond the normal range.These caveman tribes seemed to have reached a certain agreement, temporarily put aside their hostility with each other, and attacked the camp in Tianshui Town with all their strength.

"I'm afraid we've been calculated." Cheese held a wooden stick in his right hand, and the top of the iron-clad knocked on the caveman's head, stunned the opponent instantly.

"You mean someone drove these cavemen to attack us?" Mona swept down the enemy in front of her, and the tomahawk mercilessly split the opponent's head.

"Yes, there are traces of spells on these cavemen. I think someone used spells like mind control on them." Swinging the wooden staff horizontally to block the oncoming stone axe, the mage kicked The caveman who attacked him kicked off the fence.

"The other sides can't stand it anymore!" Elsa held two short swords and rushed from another direction. As the most agile existence in the group, she was assigned to wander around in various defense areas for support.

"Aren't those guards even better than the four of us? All of us can hold a wall, but they can't?" "Wild Boar" shouted angrily.Indeed, as the most powerful force, Cheese and others defended one side of the four camp walls with four people, but the soldiers guarding other directions retreated steadily in the face of the caveman's attack.

"No way, you let those patrols who catch most thieves fight these guys, it's better to expect these cavemen to retreat by themselves." The female soldier said indifferently.

"But going on like this is not an option. Even if we can defend, once one side loses, it will become very troublesome." Jack said.

"Hey, mage, can you still make a rock fall like last time?" Hahn asked.

Although they didn't say anything, several soldiers knew that if there was anyone who could save the camp now, it must be Cheese. The incredible power exerted by the mage was also the key to their ability to fight so far.If the cheese is not here, I'm afraid these fighters should consider how to retreat now.This is not because they are afraid, but because they want to guard this simple camp in the hands of such a large number of cavemen. Only the command of the old commander Jon has a chance.

"No, there are too many cavemen. I'm afraid I can't cast spells in such a large area now." The mage shook his head, indicating that he was helpless.

This made Elsa breathe a sigh of relief while being disappointed.In fact, when several people were looking forward to Cheese's answer, Elsa was a little hesitant in her heart.On the one hand, she really wanted Cheese to protect the townspeople in this camp, anyway, they were all from the whole town.But on the other hand, since Cheese confessed that every time he casts a spell, he will pay a price that ordinary people can't understand, the proprietress really doesn't know whether to expect the power of magic.You know, the cheese has cast a spell to strengthen the walls of the entire camp before, what price will this magical power make the mage pay?Elsa was unwilling to guess.

Leaving aside the proprietress, the faces of the other three sank after hearing Cheese's answer. The mage's statement meant that the camp might really be difficult to defend.They exchanged glances, as if they were making some kind of decision.

"In this case, we are about to retreat." Said the female warrior Mona.Their mission is not to guard the camp. Although the glory of the soldiers drives them to help, in the final analysis, the mission of these frost guards is to ensure the safety of the cheese.Even when necessary, they sacrifice themselves for the Master.

"Wait a little longer, maybe there will be a turning point." Of course, Cheese could guess what Mona and the others meant. In fact, he still had one or two hands in his hands for training outside.But if those methods are used, it will affect his evaluation of this adult mission, so the mage doesn't want to use these hole cards unless it is a last resort.Cheese is also hesitating whether to spend a huge price to save these residents of Tianshui Town who once regarded him as an enemy.

However, just when the mage was about to force himself to make a choice, an accident happened.

"For the empire! In the name of the hammer, kill these cavemen!" A high-pitched battle cry came from the other side of the cave, and the cavemen in that direction were separated like butter cut by a sharp knife, a team with bright armor Appearing at the end of the firelight, the light reflected from their armor was so dazzling in the dim cavern.
