Chapter 66: The threat of the Dwarf Village! Impregnable defense!

"By the way, putting those two pieces of territory equipment on the shelves can also attract some lords!"

Qin Luo listed 'Sigh of the Rat Race' and 'Collapse Armor' for sale, pricing them at one million Energy points.

Of course, Qin Luo didn't really want to sell them, and no one could afford this price anyway.

If he really encountered a ruthless person with one million Energy points, then Qin Luo would accept it.

After all, having an extra one million Energy points in the early stage would allow him to recruit four hundred thousand Undead Skeleton Soldiers.

Their utility would be much greater than a piece of territory equipment.

The sky gradually darkened!

Several miles to the west of Qin Luo's territory, there was a mine.

At the foot of the mine, there was a fortress built with copper walls and iron bastions on all four sides, with various defensive fortifications on top.

This was the Dwarf Village!

The characteristics of the Dwarf Race were very obvious; they were much shorter than normal adults, with a normal adult height of less than one meter.

And their strength was not weak among the many racial creatures.

Even in terms of individual strength, they were much weaker than Centaurs.

However, in this Barren Land, they occupied a place.

The reason was the Dwarf Race's racial talent: they were skilled in architecture, smelting, forging, etc. They would study different technologies and crafts, and even build various powerful war weapons.

Also, behind the Dwarf fortress was a rich mine, from which various metal ores could be dug to forge various weapons and equipment.

With the bonus of equipment, the strength of the Dwarves was among the best within a radius of more than ten miles.

Even the Orc Tribe, known for their strength, dared not look down on the Dwarf Race.

And relying on their powerful equipment and the impregnable castle defense, the Dwarf Village lived very comfortably; it had been unknown how many years since they had suffered an invasion by external enemies!

But today, outside the Dwarf Village, a vast, white Undead Scourge appeared.

Countless Undead Skeleton Soldiers were constantly attacking the Dwarf Village.

Woo woo woo!

The village sounded the alarm, waking up the Dwarves inside. Whether they were resting, sleeping, or working and forging, the Dwarves flocked to the city walls.

"External enemy invasion!"

"Everyone immediately put on your equipment and prepare to meet the enemy!"

"Immediately activate the Magic Arrow Towers and Magic Cannons!"

A Dwarf Captain wearing fine armor shouted, "Kuni, distribute the crossbows and firearms to the warriors. Once the enemy approaches, attack!"

Facing the attack of the Undead, the Dwarves naturally had to play to their strengths and avoid their weaknesses, using weapons like Arrow Towers and cannons that possessed long-range attack damage to cause damage to the enemy and stop their advance.

In this way, they could avoid close-quarters combat as much as possible.

Although the Dwarves each had a set of fine equipment, which could greatly improve their combat capability.

However, once in close combat, casualties were inevitable.

"Yes, Captain!"

A Dwarf Warrior beside him immediately responded.

In an instant, there were two or three hundred Dwarf Warriors on the city wall, fully armed and each performing their duties.

On the city wall, which was four or five meters high and made of various metals, there were more and more Magic Cannons, aiming their muzzles outward.

Boxes of cannonballs were moved out by the Dwarves and quickly loaded.

The Magic Arrow Towers, which had been silent for many years, were loaded with thousands of arrows.

Boom!

A heaven-shaking cannon sound rang out, and a magic cannonball streaked across the sky, landing three hundred meters away.

An explosion sounded, magic elements raged, and flames soared into the sky.

Dozens of Undead Skeleton Soldiers were blown to pieces, and bone fragments fell all over the ground. Before long, they were burned clean by the flames.

This was a warning from the Dwarf Race!

Once the Undead continued to approach, what would greet them would not just be a cannonball, but countless cannonballs and a rain of arrows!

"Stop!"

Wu Ershiyi shouted.

The Undead Army, which was slowly advancing, stopped immediately.

"Inside the Dwarf Village, there are a large number of Magic Cannons and Arrow Towers!"

"We have tried several tentative attacks during the day and basically figured out the opponent's attack range!"

"The attack range of those Magic Cannons exceeds three hundred meters!"

"And the Arrow Towers are within two hundred meters!"

"In addition, the Dwarves have a large number of repeating crossbows and muskets in their hands, with an attack range of about one hundred meters!"

Wang Er said to Wu Ershiyi. "If we choose to storm it, by the time the Undead rush to the wall, casualties will be at least over half!"

It has to be said, the defensive fortifications of the Dwarf Village were very powerful.

Before the Undead Race could even get close to the wall, they would suffer various cannon fire attacks.

Even if they rushed to the Dwarf Village, it didn't mean victory.

They still had to fight a group of well-equipped Dwarves.

"Rest in place!"

"Send people to surround the village!"

"Wait until night to find an opportunity to attack!"

Wu Ershiyi pondered for a while and said.

This time, he and Wang Er's Undead Army combined, reaching a number of six thousand.

Although most of them were cannon fodder like Undead Skeleton Soldiers.

However, they couldn't really treat the skeleton soldiers as cannon fodder; the casualties would be too tragic.

Even if they took down the Dwarf Village, they wouldn't be able to answer to the Lord.

When night comes, affected by the field of vision, the enemy's cannon fire accuracy will definitely not be as good as during the day, which can effectively reduce casualties.

"Send a few more teams to eliminate the wild monsters nearby!"

Wu Ershiyi said again.

Killing the surrounding wild monsters, one is to avoid the wild monsters going wild under the illumination of the Scarlet Moon, affecting their attack on the Dwarf Village.

Second, the corpses of the wild monsters can be converted into Undead, increasing the number of their own cannon fodder.

Third, Wu Ershiyi can use these monster bones to condense into Undead Giant Beasts as the front row to resist the attack of cannon fire and cover the attack of other Undead.

Night fell, but the atmosphere became increasingly heavy; a great battle was about to break out.

Inside the territory, Wang Yi escorted more than nine hundred indigenous people and a large amount of Red Iron back to the territory!

The Red Iron mine was outside the territory and underground; once night fell, nothing could be seen at all, and naturally, mining could not be done normally.

Therefore, laborers like the Centaurs had to return to the territory!

Of course, there was another consideration, which was safety.

Last night, the Red Iron mine suffered an attack from the Gold-Eating Rats. Although the Gold-Eating Rat tribe had been wiped out, who knew if other monsters would attack the Red Iron mine.

Therefore, only one team of Undead was left to guard the Red Iron mine.

"Lord, we are back!"

"Today we dug five thousand one hundred units of Red Iron, and it has all been transported back!"

Centaur Village Chief Kamen immediately reported to Qin Luo.

"Good!"

"You have worked hard. I have already had people prepare a large amount of meat, placed in the canteen!"

Qin Luo nodded slightly, "Let everyone eat their fill, and after eating, have a good rest. At night, just like yesterday, no matter what movement you hear, do not leave your houses!"
