Chapter 277: 275 Attacking Yellow Sand City_1


    Trantor:549690339


    To attack Nn Forest, the first obstacle to be removed was Yellow Sand City.


    The city-state was situated right along the main route from the Dragon Bone Wastnd to Nn Forest, guarded by an astonishing number of monsters.


    No one expected these brutal monsters to allow the joint forces of the Dore and the Undead to pass through easily, and Riley was no exception.


    So, let’s begin by leveling this pitiful low-rise city-state!


    With such a thought in mind, Riley and ck Knight Landry led an imposing army to the foot of Yellow Sand City.


    But upon arriving at their destination, Riley was dumbfounded.


    ording to the intelligence, Yellow Sand City was only supposed to have a low wall built of yellow sandy soil.


    But what stood before them now was a towering, sturdy yellow stone wall—by no means a short-term construction.


    Could the intelligence be wrong?


    Riley frowned tightly. No matter what, there was no turning back at this point.


    Upon hermand, some war machines brought from the Dark Domain were pushed forward.


    There were catapults from the Dark Dwarves and de throwers from the Dore. The ck Knights also had a batch of undead pushing many meat wagons capable of spreading gue.


    War had begun!


    Countless undead and all sorts of monsters from the Dark Domainboriously pushed the various war machines forward.


    Before they advanced much further, however, Chimeras flew above them, dropping one strange iron ball after another.


    Riley, who was in the rear, appeared unfazed and merely chuckled to Landry beside her: “It seems their way ofbat is quite primitive. They’re probably just relying on that troublesome city wall.”


    But the ck Knight didn’t respond. He was focused intently on the battlefield.


    And on the city wall of Yellow Sand City, he saw a familiar face.


    It was that goblin, Gaz. This time, he swore to kill this strange goblin and wash away his own shame.


    Riley didn’t care about the ck Knight’s indifference towards her. She just nced at him and muttered to herself how the undead simply didn’t understand romance.


    The Death Lord was like this too, as was the ck Knight. They treated her as if she were merely air.


    In her city-state, she was a top-tier beauty with many male admirers to choose from. She didn’t need to bother with this ck-armored knight.


    She believed that she would soon achieve the will of her Goddess


    Just as Riley thought this, an unexpected situation arose.


    A series of deafening noises came from the forefront; even the ground beneath her feet trembled continuously, nearly causing her to lose her bnce.


    What was happening?


    Startled, Riley looked ahead and saw, with sheer horror, that the catapults and fighters nearby had all been blown to pieces by the explosions.


    As her eyes grew dull and numb, a disembodied skull fell right before her.


    This skeleton soldier, clearly a low-ranking one, wasn’tpletely killed despite losing its head and body.


    Its eye sockets flickered with faint undead mes, and its jawbone opened and closed incessantly, as if to mock Riley.


    “What the hell is going on!”


    Enraged, Riley crushed the skull at her feet and furiously interrogated her guards.


    But her guards had also failed to see what had just happened. They stuttered for a long time but said nothing in the end.


    Annoyed, Riley murmured a curse and a surge of eerie mes burst from her guard’s body.


    Subsequently, the guard was quickly burned to ashes amidst his wails, and the surrounding guards, upon seeing this, instantly bowed their heads, pretending they saw nothing.


    Once she was done, Riley stared viciously at the ashes on the ground, which somehow made her feel a little better.


    The ck Knight had been watching this coldly from the side. When Riley’s expression finally returned to normal, he spoke icily: “It’s those ck iron balls. Perhaps they managed to imprint explosion spells within, causing such intense sts.


    And tossing them from the Chimeras above is simple and practical.”


    “I don’t want to hear you praise our opponent!”


    Looking at Riley’s angered expression, the ck Knight shook his head. Then, a flock of flying Gargoyles and Skeleton Griffins soared into the air swiftly.


    Simultaneously, he sent out arge number of Undead to push the meat wagons slowly forward.


    This time, Riley did not send out her own subordinates to cooperate with the undead attack. Instead, she decided to let these worthless undead clear the way for her.


    With the protection of many flying units, the Chimeras could not throw their ck iron balls as freely as they did before, much to the relief of the Undead below.


    After paying a price, they had advanced quite a distance and believed that before long, they would be within the meat wagons’ striking range.


    The Undead’s meat wagons were simr to catapults, with their ammunition being corpses that couldn’t turn into the undead, or rotting zombie bodies.


    No matter what form their projectiles took, they all carried a horrifying, infectious gue—biological warfare that was difficult for most creatures to resist.


    Just as Riley was about to see some results from the Undead’s efforts, the explosions erupted again.


    This time, however, the source was not from above, but below.


    Riley couldn’t believe her eyes. As the dust settled, the undead and meat wagons that had previously been in position were now reduced to fragments scattered everywhere and mostly buried in deep pits.


    “Indeed, you’re not an easy opponent to deal with ”


    With his eyes fixed on Gaz atop the city wall, ck Knight’s fighting spirit surged.


    Meanwhile, Gaz gently touched his recently healed wound and gazed intensely at the Undead below.


    Attacks by top-level undead creatures like the ck Knight were typically apanied by a fierce undead toxin. Gaz had been affected by it before.


    Had it not been for his improved physique after bing a Dragonborn Goblin and Saru’s assistance, alongside some mysterious white-robed spellcasters, he might have been bedridden.


    Speaking of Saru, Gaz gazed at an open space within the city with a puzzled expression.


    Saru was sitting there with those strange white-robed spellcasters in a circle, a small Silver Dragon statue ced in the center of the crowd.


    And they, one and all, were ceaselessly praying to the small statue.
