Chapter 715: Undead strikes

Renn knew exactly what Kerstakin was thinking.
The king of the hill coveted the throne of the high mountain kingdom, and he wanted to replace it. This caused an unresolvable hostility between him and Thorgrin, but his personal ambition did not affect his ideal of reviving the glory of the dwarf. The two are highly consistent. of.
The powerful electro-optical cannon of Vaillant can undoubtedly greatly help Kerstakin realize this lofty ambition, even if it is finally effective, it will not hesitate to be loyal.
The other dwarves also realized the great effect of the electric light cannon.
Renn is not disgusted with the intentions of these dwarves. The two sides are currently partners and allies. If they can help, they will help.
Unfortunately this is impossible.
The most important core component of the electro-optical gun is the brain-dissociating chip, which accurately controls the energy transmission and release of the Titan engine with the computing power far exceeding the limit of the human brain, combined with optical knowledge, makes the magic of "electro-optical rays" reach an incredible level.
All of this is the product of the mutant phone and the heart of the brain. It is unique, no one can make it except himself, and Master Ogulevi can't do it either.
Even if Kstakin was told the original method, he would not be able to make an electric light cannon.
Facing the desire of the dwarves, Renn shook his head decisively.
"The core technology of the electro-optical cannon involves my demon soul." Renn said solemnly: "Except for me, there is no second person in the world who can make the electro-optical cannon."
Kerstakin didn't believe it.
How could he not be able to make the master rune lord, the most brilliant craftsman and alchemist of Ellenus, as long as he got the blueprints?
The dwarves thought that Renn was just making excuses to refuse, but they could only sigh in a low voice.
Why should such a powerful invention be taught to dwarves?
Ryan saw through their thoughts at a glance, and said: "I can give you a rune array and design drawing of the electric light cannon, Kstakin, you can try it yourself, but you must make sure that you will never pass it out."
Since it will never be possible to make an electric light cannon, let them give up from the beginning.
"it is good!"
Kerstakin was excited, and at the same time full of confidence, he said loudly: "I swear in the name of Grimmnir that I will not leak the design of the electro-optical cannon."
Ren shook his head in his heart and didn't make a sound to hit him.
The rune array of the electro-optical cannon only plays a secondary role. After Kstakin has mastered it, he will find that without the Titan engine and the brain chip, the power of the electro-optical cannon is not reached at all, but it is an ordinary rune method. Array, just can excite electro-optical rays.
Ren glanced at the turret, then turned to leave.
Brestein stopped him, "My lord, do you need to send a team of dwarf fighters from the Three Hammers to strengthen the guard of the electric cannon?"
"You don't need to waste manpower, just patrol the wall normally." Ren shook his head and replied.
The dwarves were stunned.
Isn't such an important weapon specially assigned to guard it?
Renn smiled and explained: "The electro-optical cannon has a self-defense mechanism. If an enemy approaches, it will automatically counterattack. Without reaching the legend, approaching the electro-optical cannon is a dead end."
The electric light gun is essentially a clone of itself.
In addition to the three firing modes of long-range attacks, there are also powerful protection capabilities. The electro-optical shield inspired by the Titan engine has only eight rings, but with the support of huge energy, the defense capabilities are no less than nine-ring spells.
In addition, there are "serial lightning" and "advanced thunder technique" approaching the enemy. The brain-disconnecting chip has its own telepathy, and is connected with six "secret eyes", leaving no dead spots for detection.
The brain-separating chip is always on standby, tireless, and no rest.
It itself is more reliable than any guard.
The dwarves looked at each other. They had never seen such a magical weapon, but Brestein was still worried: "What if it is a legendary enemy?"
What he was worried about was that the electro-optical cannon was taken away.
"Don't worry, the electric light cannon will respond correctly." Renn patted the chief craftsman on the shoulder. "No one can steal the electric light cannon. If anyone does this, it will end badly." The corners of his mouth raised. A quirky smile.
Even if someone breaks through the protective system of the electro-optical cannon and wants to destroy it, or even looting it, the electro-optical cannon has the last card-self-destruction!
The Titan engine model of the electric light gun is different from the power armor. It is larger, more powerful, and consumes more source crystals.
It uses a medium-sized standard source crystal rod, which weighs a full eighty pounds.
So many high-purity source crystals exploded, and their lethality surpassed most nine-ring spells. The temperature and impact of the explosion center were enough to kill the Saint-tier powerhouses who lacked protection or were not cautious enough.
In other words, the spark cannon is actually a magic trap.
If an electric light cannon can exchange the life of a holy rank powerhouse, it would be worth it! Regardless of labor costs, the cost of an electro-optical cannon is more than 79,000 gold shields, which is close to 80,000. A mere 80,000 gold shields killed a holy rank powerhouse, even if only a legendary high rank was killed, it was a blood profit!
Rennes suddenly looked forward to it.
After carefully confessing a few words, he patrolled Gotham City and then returned to Fort Vajra.
Kerstakin followed to get a design drawing of the electric light gun, and immediately returned to Gotham's Highland Fortress like a treasure.
Rennes buried himself in the research and development power armor again.
He himself did research, but Lei Zhu Heavenly Soldier was not idle for a day, making electro-optical cannons almost at the rate of one per day, and once they were completed, they would be sent to Gotham.
The city wall has just been built a quarter, but this does not affect the installation of electro-optical cannons.
According to Rennes's request, Brestein built a short section of the foundation as a turret on the foundation where the city wall had not yet been built. The distance between the two turrets is controlled within two miles. This is the effective range of the electro-optical gun burst mode. If the enemy exceeds two miles, the bombing mode has a range of 3,000 meters, which is enough to form a fire network covering the entire city wall. .
Ten electric cannons were installed on the twenty-mile-long city wall, but this was far from enough.
The west coast of Shield Island is more than forty miles, and the northern half is a strait. The widest point is only more than 200 meters. The undead can easily cross over from Abraken on the opposite side, so a wall must be built.
The southern half is a wide bay. It is also one of the two best natural deep-water ports in the New World. It is shaped like a bottle with a narrow neck and wide belly. There is only a "bottle mouth" on the south side, but the width of the bottle mouth. For nearly three miles, it has been able to stop the vast majority of the undead army that cannot fly.
But there are still some undead who can fly.
So Wren asked Brestein to build a turret every two miles along the shore, and also installed electro-optical cannons to block the exit of the bay.
The defensive line of the wall turret only targets enemies from the west.
And the enemy will definitely attack from the east.
Ellen's war is always inseparable from teleportation, and the actions of the Scourge are always inseparable from the Lich and Necromancer with the seal of death knot.
They will teleport the undead army directly to Shield Island, bypassing the city wall and attacking from the east.
However, in the larger the battle, the role of the portal is more limited, because there are too many troops. If the portal is not built in advance, and only relying on spells to open the portal, there is no time to send many troops.
The greatest advantage of the Scourge is quantity, which also restricts their mobility.
The best strategy is to transmit only a small number of elite troops, allowing most of the troops to march on a regular basis, forming a multi-faceted attack.
Therefore, the offensive of the Scourge is also very well judged.
In addition to the city walls, Gotham City is still a large area of ​​open space. There is a Pingchuan to the east, and there is no danger to defend. The only thing that can attract the undead to attack is the highland fortress in the city.
Rennes selected a dozen points to build turrets to the east of the Highland Fortress to form a curved line of defense.
Finally, four electric cannons were installed on the top of the highland fortress. The firepower covered the area within two miles of the fort. The residents and dwarf artisans who migrated to Gotham one after another are currently living here. The four electric cannons are used to protect them. .
In more than a month, Leizhu Heavenly Soldiers manufactured a total of 35 electric cannons.
This takes up thirty-five brain-dividing chips.
Rehn’s chip quota is still enough. He has just earned five million gold shields from Thorgrin, and it is not bad now. However, considering the huge investment in Gotham City, it is still necessary to save some money, so he temporarily stopped manufacturing electric lights. gun.
Time passed day by day.
From the day the city wall was started, nearly three months passed in a blink of an eye.
Two-thirds of the tall city wall has been built, more than 14 miles, and it was built from both ends at the same time, just like digging a tunnel, and finally connected in the middle.
The gap in the middle section of the city wall is nearly six miles, and it is closing every day.
During this period, a small army of undead forces crossed the water surface of the strait to try to interfere with the construction of the city wall every three to five.
This is an obvious temptation.
The Leizhu Heavenly Soldiers sent out were scattered in Abraken, and found that the undead army was gathering, and the number had doubled from that of a Xinqian, reaching more than 70,000. However, the undead of this scale are not too many for the Scourge, even just a drop in the bucket.
Historically, the Scourge has dispatched at least hundreds of thousands of scales, and millions of them are also very common.
This made Renn a little strange, and the Thunderforged Heavenly Soldier lurking in Abraken did not find that there were many legendary powerhouses among the undead.
Counting, there are only a dozen legends, most of which are beginner and intermediate.
The undead that make up this army are not high-ranked, mainly in the elementary and middle-ranking, and the proportion of high-ranking is less than 1%, which is not an elite army at all.
Various undead creatures are mixed together, like a miscellaneous army.
Wren secretly asked the Leizhu Heavenly Soldiers to expand the scope of investigation, and went around a large circle around the Abraham area, and found that the tomb of the undead was almost empty in this area of ​​thousands of square miles.
Obviously, these undead are just a vanguard.
The main force of the Scourge has not yet arrived.
After Rehn made his judgment, he only asked the Three Hammers and Extreme Soldiers to destroy the small groups of undead who came to interfere, and did not let the electric cannons fire, so as not to attract the attention of the Scourge. In the electro-optical cannon test that day, Renn deliberately chose a relatively biased position and fired after confirming that there were no undead lurking nearby.
An army of seven or eighty thousand undead lurked in a valley north of Abraken, more than thirty miles from Shield Island.
Since their large forces did not move, Renn was so happy, not going to stun them.
Every day, urban construction gets closer to completion. After the city wall is built, it will be difficult for the Scourge to break through Gotham City, and the difficulty will increase by at least ten times!
However, Renn did not take it lightly.
There is also a possibility that these undead are just an illusion released by the Scourge. Maybe it was calm in the first second, and in the next second, the Xinxiang Floating City under their control jumped to the sky above Gotham.
As the city wall is built day by day, the gap in the middle has gradually narrowed.
Suddenly, Renn, who was immersed in the research, raised his head.
In the river valley north of Abraham, the originally silent ground suddenly rolled violently, the river became turbid, and countless undead emerged from the underground and hidden caves. Soon, the mountains and plains were crowded with densely packed undead creatures.
Zombies, skeleton warriors, skeleton archers, corpse dogs, water ghosts, spider monsters, soul weavers, ghost servants, bone constructs, ghost cavalry, ghost sentinels, shadow lurkers...
Thousands of gargoyles, wraiths, and ghost bats fly into the sky, forming shadows that cover the sky and the sun.
To the east of the river valley, a Leizhu Heavenly Soldier melted into a thick withered tree trunk, monitoring the movement of the river valley.
He found the leader in the undead army.
A legendary high-level death knight, beside it, there is a haggard-like lich wearing a gorgeous robe. The eyes of the soul are too far to see clearly, and it can only roughly judge whether the level of the lich is 18th or 19th level. , But it must not be the Holy Spirit Lich.
The death knight is riding a ghost horse that can fly in the air and directs the army forward.
They head south, the target is Shield Island.
Ren also saw everything that Lei Zhu Tianbing saw.
He immediately stopped his work, sent it to Glamorgan, and notified the teacher through the Wezeland badge. At the same time, he used the magic communication stone handed to him by Hellfire to send a message to the ancient red dragon, asking it to tell the elder Titan, at any time Be prepared for battle.
At the same time, more than 20 Thundercast Heavenly Soldiers in the mechanical alchemy room also stopped working, quickly put on golden armor, and jointly opened the portal.
The extreme fighters and spear wing knights who stayed in Fort King Kong entered the portal in an orderly manner.
The portal of Glamorgan also opened.
The two extraordinary legions were transported step by step at the fastest speed, using Jianwan Town as a transfer station, and they all reached the highland fortress in Gotham City in just a few minutes.
Rennes arrived at Gotham one step ahead of time.
The Leizhu Heavenly Soldiers stationed here have already told Kstakin the movement of the undead army. The King of the Hill has acted resolutely, and the five thousand dwarven army has moved. The dwarf craftsmen and the more than 10,000 human residents who have moved there are all gathering in the direction of the highland fortress.
Ren teleported to the city wall and appeared next to Kstakin.
The King of the Hill looked at Abraken across the river bank, only saw the dry and twisted black forest, still silent.
The undead army is still far away.
But Kstakin didn't relax a bit, his eyes were full of dignity. He turned his head to look at the highland fairy fortress in the city, and the tall extreme fighters were pouring out of the fortress. There is also a flying horse, which seems to be cast in bronze, with its vibrating and translucent wings flying into the sky and flying towards the east.
According to the advance plan, the extreme fighters stayed behind the fort.
When the extreme fighters finished the transmission, they found that the teleportation array was still in operation. One by one, the Thundercast Heavenly Soldiers hidden in the golden armor appeared. They were armed with explosive guns and lightning warhammers. The breath that came out of them made even the extreme fighters look at him. .
The extreme fighters know that the original body has cultivated a new army, and UU reading www.uukanshu.com has also seen the Thunder Cast Heavenly Soldier, but they did not expect that there are so many, there are more than 100!
On the city wall, the Three Hammers were already in place.
The Iron Shield and Wildhammer warriors are at the forefront, the Musketeers and Hunters are behind, there are dwarf mages and priests, and some priests who go out to purify the land are rushing back.
In addition, there are more than 60 Wezeland wizards, which are already members of half of the Wezeland wizards, and many of them are legendary wizards.
These transcendents gave Kerstakin strong confidence.
Of course, the greatest confidence comes from Renn around him.
Kerstakin looked at Renne, the young man's face was still calm, unable to find the slightest fluctuation, as if everything was under control. Ren's strength and preparedness have eliminated the last trace of anxiety in the hearts of the dwarves.
After a while, a shadow appeared on the northern horizon.
The undead is coming!
