Chapter 1425 Fierce Battle at the Twin Towers Fortress (Part 1)

Ever since the 15th year of the Dark Portal, when Illidan lost to Arthas in Northrend and was forced to withdraw to Draenor, Illidan has been painstakingly managing the territory of Outland.

For eight years, Vashj maintained firm control over Zangarmarsh.

There is a saying that goes well, whoever controls the water source will be invincible.

Vashj used the black technology from the draenei to build a large number of water pumps to extract water resources from the entire Outland, and also gathered a large number of elite aquatic soldiers.

At the beginning, there were some strong men from the tribe who thought that gathering all the strong men from the alliance and tribes in the outer regions to defend them was making a big deal out of a molehill.

When Vaschi's strong men came out in full force, the coalition forces realized that they were lucky enough to be able to take advantage of the opponent's contempt and build a small fortress on the shore early.

In addition to giant monsters like Yuzilla, which can only stay in deep water, there are also monsters such as Gazian, the three-headed snake from the dark swamp, Hogarfen, the swamp giant, Stirig the mechanic, and so on.

The biggest feature of these guys is their huge size.

If one of them were randomly selected to challenge the powerful heroes of the alliance, as long as the heroes were given enough time, they would definitely be killed.

The problem is - they appear together.

It's like a tank charge. If a tank comes alone, everyone has a hundred ways to deal with it. The easiest is to go around behind and then launch a fatal attack in the blind spot of the opponent's sight.

When a tank group charges, it is really unstoppable and there is no way to escape.

Without this fortress as a support, the coalition forces would most likely be defeated by the terrifying impact of a group of enemy giant beast leaders, and then be chased across the mountains and plains in the swamps, catching up one by one like ducks being chased away. Kill.

However, having an extremely strong city wall is another matter.

At first, the engineers didn't understand why a large number of triangular steel brackets had to be added as auxiliary supports behind the temporary city wall. When Naga drove the murlocs to fill the slope with corpses and paved the passage, everyone understood.

Never underestimate the strength and madness of your enemy!

After the first layer of the city wall was breached, the almost completely sealed arrow tower, which had no entrance to the city wall, was still pouring out guns and ballistae. The special bastion-type design can well resist the bombardment of artillery and heavy weapons, and can even allow the artillery in the second-layer defense tower to directly bombard it without hesitation. The enemy will definitely die anyway.

The open space between the first and second walls of the fortress became the most terrifying slaughterhouse.

Vashchi's men would not have thought that after the alliance built the city wall, they would still have time to use the excavator to perform Lan Xiang's stunt, digging thirty-six large pits with a depth of more than 20 meters around the inner city wall in such a short period of time. Waiting for the giant monster from Vashj's side to fall in.

It was filled with barb-like discarded steel bars. Most of these are scraps left over from fort construction and other projects, and now they can be used perfectly as traps.

Take the swamp giant Hogarfen, for example. He had just dashed across the city wall with long strides and stepped on the corpse of the murloc, and then he fell into the pit with a plop.

There is a two-meter-wide road between each pit for coalition soldiers to evacuate. This width is enough even for a tauren, but for the swamp giant boss whose feet are more than two meters in diameter, it is worse than walking on a tightrope.

Hogalfen fell down in embarrassment on the spot and was turned into a specimen by dozens of protruding steel bars.

"Roar——" This giant who was more than five stories tall let out a shrill howl.

Although very painful, this is not a fatal injury to a swamp giant with super vitality.

At this moment, Varian jumped up high and raised his two increasingly famous artifact swords [Sharatol (Shadow Tearer)] and [Eremeni (Shadow Reaver)]. The two swords stabbed Hogalfen's throat at the same time.

One red and one basket, two bright rays of light extended from the curved blade with a sense of futuristic technology in his hand. In an instant, it completely pierced the swamp giant's throat and penetrated straight into the brain from there. .

The swamp giant was not a low-intelligent creature like the slime monster. His brain was destroyed and he died on the spot.

Not every hero has Varian's level of attack power. Without the two artifact long swords to open the way, the Japanese might be outnumbered.

There, Fandral Staghelm was unlucky enough to encounter the three-headed snake Gazian. This super monster with a lizard-like lower body swept its tail, and its huge tail hit Fandral hard like a battering ram. The violent impact knocked him out like a fly ball, slamming into the outer steel wall of the fortress wall. If he hadn't been able to transform himself from the form of a giant bear back into a human form, he would have really responded to the phrase "if you slap someone against the wall, you won't be able to dig them out."

While Fandral attracted Gazian's attention, Lilas Windrunner assumed an independent pose. She held the bow string tightly with both hands, and used her long legs, which were second only to those of her sisters, to open a two-meter-long super bow that resembled an English longbow.

It took so much physical effort to pull it apart, so it was natural that ordinary arrows would not be used. Those were the crossbow arrows used by crossbows that have almost been eliminated by the times.

Everyone has discovered that high-explosive bombs must be used to defeat mobs. Armor-piercing bullets and the like are just fine against ordinary elite monsters, but the leaders coming out of the Coil Fang Reservoir all have a layer of water elemental armor, and the power of explosive weapons is greatly weakened.

Compared with the overwhelming firepower of the flying battleships overhead, more primitive weapon attacks are more effective against this thick-skinned monster.

This time, Lilas fired a crossbow and nailed one of Gazian's three heads to the base of a half-collapsed arrow tower.

"Ouch——"

The leader of the three-headed snake is not afraid of injury, but he is very afraid of attacks that limit his movement. Without three heads that can attack from multiple angles at the same time, its movements are slow and its attack success rate will further decrease.

It let out a shrill wail, and streams of thick, sour breath flowed from its mouth. Just smelling it makes the world spin.

Any kind of giant monster has its own horror when it goes crazy. When it rushed into the fortress before, due to its size and slow crawling, it had been bombarded by several rounds of cannon fodder and had already been seriously injured.

Although Gazian, as a boss, is not considered top-notch in the entire Outland, the monster's dying blow before it dies is still quite terrifying. The other two heads that were not pinned were raised to the sky, and the terrifying [acid spray] swept an almost 180-degree arc in mid-air.

This spray covered almost half of the battlefield at low altitude.
