Chapter 2746

Flames burned on the city walls. The front of the nearly 100-meter-high city wall was covered with claw marks and dents; these were the traces left by the wolf cavalry when they climbed. That's right, this was New Moon Fortress, which had been captured by the wolf cavalry legion.

New Moon Fortress was located between the Ancient Tree Fortress and the Aier Great Forest, mainly serving as a buffer. Although it was not a strategic stronghold, it was also an important transit station.

The Demon Flame Dragon, Barbato, flew in the sky, and Su Xiao stood on the dragon's back. He led the army to attack New Moon Fortress mainly to lure out Elf Elder Ruth, who was inside the Ancient Tree Fortress.

Just now, he had the wolf cavalry march toward the Aier Great Forest, and at the same time, he had Baja closely monitor the situation at the Ancient Tree Fortress.

Ruth was very steady. Whether it was New Moon Fortress being captured or Su Xiao leading the army toward the Aier Great Forest, the old guy remained still at the Ancient Tree Fortress. It could be said that the Elf Queen's decision to have Ruth guard the Ancient Tree Fortress was a very wise one.

Looking at the burning fortress city below, Su Xiao began to lay out his subsequent plans. First, he must not head straight for the Aier Great Forest at this time.

The Ancient Tree Fortress in the rear was like a nail, stuck there firmly. Leaving such a hidden danger in the rear meant that once Su Xiao's attack on the Aier Great Forest didn't go smoothly, he would be flanked by Ruth.

If the wolf cavalry legion were surrounded from the front and back, the advantage of being cavalry would disappear for the most part. Therefore, if he wanted to attack the Aier Great Forest, the threat of the Ancient Tree Fortress must be removed first.

Temporarily ignoring the two major powers of the Do-In Empire and the Northern Territory, the situation at this time was simple and clear: first capture the Ancient Tree Fortress, then capture the Aier Great Forest.

There was still the strong enemy of the Do-In Empire behind, so during the war with the Elf race, the wolf cavalry could not suffer too many casualties, otherwise they would lose the qualifications to go to war with the Do-In Empire.

Su Xiao checked the prompt information. After capturing New Moon Fortress, he obtained 3 four-star titles: Soul of the Brave (★★★★), Fortress Destroyer (★★★★), and Lunar Eclipse (★★★★).

Checking the existing titles, he still needed 2 more four-star titles and 2 five-star titles before the War Lord could perform title burning and refining.

Going to attack the Ancient Tree Fortress head-on now was a very unwise decision. There were 600,000 troops stationed there, 300,000 of whom were archers.

After the war started, the wolf cavalry would be blocked by the Elf troops around the "Ancient Tree Fortress" and engage in melee combat below the city walls. At that time, the city walls would be filled with Elf archers, unleashing a rain of arrows on the wolf cavalry.

In addition to this, the Ancient Tree Fortress itself was a war weapon. Its city walls were like thick tree roots intertwined together. Once the enemy army reached the vicinity of the city walls, these roots would unfold, entangle the enemy, and absorb the enemy's life force.

In Su Xiao's view, this was a weakness. If this fortress were a rock structure + engraved spells, a dead object, he would have to attack it by force. But now, this fortress was a living thing.

This matter needed to be done by Xiang Bubu Wang. It could sneak into the Ancient Tree Fortress. To influence this behemoth of an Ancient Tree Fortress, one must first find its weakness.

On the dragon's back, Su Xiao looked at Xiang Bubu Wang and explained to Xiang Bubu what it needed to do next.

"If the Ancient Tree Fortress has a hub or core, continue the plan. If not, withdraw."

"Woof."

After Xiang Bubu Wang barked, it looked at Baja, meaning it wanted Baja to give it a ride.

"Sit tight."

"Woof?"

"Go."

"Woo-ooh-woof (Don't touch me)."

Baja grabbed Xiang Bubu Wang's two hind legs and flew away quickly. High in the sky, Xiang Bubu Wang was flying fast, head down.

After controlling the Demon Flame Dragon, Barbato, to land, Su Xiao ordered the 480,000 wolf cavalry to stand by. The previous plains battles had boosted the morale of the wolf cavalry.

After waiting for about half an hour, Xiang Bubu Wang arrived near the Ancient Tree Fortress, while Baja and Am were located between Su Xiao and Xiang Bubu Wang.

The reason was that the communication range of the team channel was limited. Su Xiao, Am, Baja, and Xiang Bubu Wang formed a straight line at four points. In this way, the communication distance of the team channel would be greatly increased, and Su Xiao could decide when to dispatch the army through real-time messages.

The Ancient Tree Fortress was on high alert, still in its previous formation. Because this fortress was a living thing, Xiang Bubu Wang could not penetrate the city wall through the ability attached to 【Holy Traveler】, but it took a different approach, choosing to dig a hole and pass through in a U-shape from underground.

It took 2 hours for Xiang Bubu Wang to successfully bypass the tangled tree roots underground and reach the inside of the fortress.

Because it had just rained, the stone slabs inside the fortress were washed very clean. A stone slab next to a tree house was suddenly pushed up, revealing a gap.

The stone slab was pushed up very slowly. Xiang Bubu Wang looked around with the stone slab on its head, confirming that there were no Elf warriors nearby, before it crawled out of the hole, shook the fur all over its body to shake off the dirt, and didn't forget to cover the stone slab behind it—as steady as an old dog.

Finding the hub of the Ancient Tree Fortress was not simple, but Xiang Bubu Wang was very experienced in this. It came to a high place, gathered its Qi in its dantian, and brewed its emotions for a moment.

"Woo-ooh!"

Xiang Bubu Wang let out a long howl and then merged into the environment.

This long howl from Xiang Bubu really shocked the garrison inside the fortress. Elf Elder Ruth on the city wall rushed down quickly; he had recently developed a shadow from the sound of wolf howls.

"Wolf cavalry have infiltrated the fortress!"

The Elf warriors began to patrol inside the fortress, wishing they could lift every stone slab on the ground. Soon, they found the hole Xiang Bubu Wang had dug and confirmed that an enemy had infiltrated the fortress.

Ruth stood in front of the hole. He was very puzzled now: why did the enemy choose to expose themselves after infiltrating? Instead of taking the opportunity to burn their food reserves or cause destruction inside.

Just as Ruth was full of confusion, he felt the ground beneath his feet trembling. With a boom, the east city wall suddenly unfolded, turning into a large area of tree roots. These tree roots swayed wildly, and all the Elf warriors who had been standing on the city wall fell down, landing among the roots.

"Oh no!"

Ruth ran quickly toward a three-story wooden building. Such a change in the Ancient Tree Fortress was likely because the hub had been attacked. The vague consciousness of the Ancient Tree Fortress was stored in the hub branches.

Not far from Ruth, Xiang Bubu Wang yawned. It just needed to find something and make the enemy feel that something was wrong with it, and the enemy would naturally go to check it, thereby leading the way.

Following Ruth, Xiang Bubu Wang arrived under a three-story wooden building. After entering, Xiang Bubu Wang found Ruth looking around, searching for something.

After Xiang Bubu Wang searched the wooden building, it didn't find anything suspicious. It activated the ability attached to 【Holy Traveler】, wanting to penetrate to the bottom of the wooden building to see if there was a basement or something similar.

Just as Xiang Bubu Wang was about to penetrate the wooden floor, it found that it couldn't penetrate this thing. This wooden floor actually had the characteristics of a living thing.

Seeing this, Xiang Bubu Wang took out a magnifying glass. After checking the floor and the walls, it found that they were all composed of tree roots as thin as hair. This wooden building was the hub of the Ancient Tree Fortress. The hub was hidden very cleverly; no one would ever think that this unattended place was the hub of the fortress.

Xiang Bubu Wang took a test tube out of the team storage space, which contained black liquid. It very carefully pulled out the cork. What was inside was purified Ancient God blood, or rather, this was the divine blood of the Blood God, Gheps.

Ancient God energy has terrifying corrosive and assimilative power, so one can imagine how dangerous its divine blood is.

The reason the Ancient Tree Fortress appeared out of control just now was that Xiang Bubu Wang had poured some divine blood on the city wall, but this level of contact was not enough to make the fortress completely out of control.

Xiang Bubu Wang stood the test tube on the ground, with two dog paws supporting it on the left and right sides. It counted down 3 seconds in its heart and then retreated in a flash. Because the bottom of the test tube was round, the test tube fell over.

As the test tube fell, Ruth sensed this thing. He immediately turned his head to look, and after seeing the black blood inside, he lunged forward regardless of everything. Unfortunately, it was too late.

The test tube fell, and the black divine blood inside flowed out, instantly sinking into the rough floor below. The hub of the Ancient Tree Fortress had come into contact with the divine blood.

Everything went quiet. After the silence lasted for a few seconds, this wooden building suddenly expanded, turning into millions of black tree roots as thin as hair, swaying wildly.

A dull roar came from inside the Ancient Tree Fortress. All the soldiers inside and around the fortress felt a buzz in their ears, and their heads felt like they had been hit hard.

The entire Ancient Tree Fortress was like it had bloomed. The tree roots that formed the four city walls all stretched out. One can imagine the number and length of these tree roots that could form city walls dozens of meters high.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Tree roots as thick as water buckets whipped wildly at the surroundings. Many Elf warriors who didn't have time to dodge were directly smashed into puddles of rotten meat.

The Elf warriors were all stunned. The fortress they had guarded for more than ten years suddenly went berserk and began to attack the surroundings indiscriminately.

For a time, the hundreds of thousands of troops inside and outside the fortress were in chaos. They were all rushing toward the periphery, preparing to get out of the attack range of the Ancient Tree Fortress first.

Hum~

The sound of horns came from the distance, and the ground shook slightly. A black "wave" surged from the distance—it was the wolf cavalry legion.

What was even more deadly was that the 480,000 wolf cavalry had now split into ten groups, charging from all directions.

Inside, there was the berserk Ancient Tree Fortress, and outside, there were the wolf cavalry surrounding them. For a time, the garrison of the Ancient Tree Fortress was nearly routed. Before the war had even started, their morale had slipped from 100 points to 48 points. Once it dropped below 30 points, large-scale routs would occur.

The surrounding wolf cavalry had completely charged, and the shouts of killing soared to the sky. One wolf cavalryman after another raised the wide-bladed swords or war hammers in their hands.

Metal clashed, and flesh and blood flew. In the chaotic army, a Morning Glow warrior holding a battle blade held his blade horizontally in front of him.

With a bang, a long-handled war hammer smashed down, directly sending this Morning Glow warrior flying while spraying blood from his mouth, his internal organs severely damaged. This was the power of a cavalry charge.

One wolf cavalryman after another was like a wolf entering a flock of sheep, using their strongest attacks to harvest the lives of the enemy army to their heart's content.

In one round of charging and killing, nearly 50,000 of the 600,000 enemy troops fell. The wolf cavalry didn't linger in the fight. After completing one round of charging, they immediately circled to the flanks, and the second wave of wolf cavalry from the rear charged in.

One hour after the war started, the 600,000-strong Elf army was defeated. The Ancient Tree Fortress turned into a large area of tree roots. By the looks of it, even if it didn't wither to death, it wouldn't recover for several years. This was the corrosive power of divine blood. You must know that this was still under the condition that the Blood God was already dead.

Those who are good at water drown in water; the garrison of the Ancient Tree Fortress was just like that. They relied too much on this fortress, and today, this fortress led to their disastrous defeat.
