In the hall, the group leader had reported the situation at the gate to Angus.
“Do you mean that you have shot more than half of the arrows without even seeing anyone?” Angus’s face darkened and asked seriously.
Sensing the anger in Angus’s tone, the group leader explained stiffly, “Yes… The fog is spreading in front of us. We can’t see the situation at all, and we don’t dare to go out to investigate, so…”
“Stop shooting. Everyone should be on high alert to prevent the enemy from a sneak attack!”
Angus was very decisive. It was obvious that the other party was consuming their arrows.
The group leader took the order and quickly went down to deliver it.
“Locke Capet, you are smart. But it’s your bad luck to meet my Black Rock Bandits.”
Although the underlings had been tricked, Angus didn’t worry too much. He was confident in the defense of his fortress. There were more than 10 traps and defenses. Locke would never be able to come back!
About 1 mile in the forest away from the fortress, Athena had sensed that the bandits had begun to relax. She turned around and said to Locke, “It’s about time.”
Locke nodded and gestured for Kerton and others to get ready. Kerton and the others also held their weapons tightly and were ready to charge.
Under Locke’s lead, they approached the fortress carefully.
Looking at the arrows all over the ground, Kerton felt his scalp tingling. If they rushed over like this, they might die without knowing how.
But deep in his heart, he began to admire Athena. It was just a little trick. They had only roared a few times and consumed so many weapons of the enemy.
Of course, it couldn’t be without the magic sound transmission ability of Athena.
After a while, they were less than 100 meters away from the gate. Looking at the blurry outline of the city wall in the distance, Locke lowered his voice; “These brigands are really unusual. They have built such a large defensive wall. The gate is a hard nut to crack,”
Looking at the ten-meter-high city wall, Athena said, “Explode the gate directly.”
To explode?
Looking at the tall wall, Kerton twitched the corners of his mouth and reminded in a low voice, “Miss Athena, we didn’t bring gunpowder with us.”
Locke didn’t say anything. He knew that Athena must have a plan.
“I didn’t mean to use gunpowder.”
The corner of Athena’s mouth raised a beautiful arc. It was a confident and charming smile. After saying that, she strode towards the gate without hiding anything.
At the same time, the energy in her palm was transmitted. In the blink of an eye, a fist-sized fireball was formed.
“Fireball spell…”
Looking at the fire in Athena’s hand, Locke twitched the corners of his mouth again and said numbly. In such a short period, using water magic well was already very terrifying, and now she even had fire magic!
Kerton and the people behind him looked nervous and confused. What was the fireball spell? What was Master Locke talking about?
But the next moment, they seemed to know what Locke meant. The fireball in Athena’s hand had taken shape. Different from the previous cold, they felt a burst of burning sensation in Athena’s hands.
There was no doubt that as long as they touched it a little, they would suffer a lot.
On the wall of the fortress, a bandit rubbed his sore arm tiredly and complained, “I don’t know who dares to…”
The next moment, the bandit’s words were stuck in his throat. All of a sudden, a slender black shadow appeared in his eyes. The black shadow walked over from the fog aboveboard, even giving people a feeling of strolling leisurely.
There seemed to be a ball of red light flashing in the black figure’s hand.
“Enemy attack! Enemy attack!”
After a short pause, the bandit trembled and roared. The person who dared to come to the fortress at this time couldn’t be a guest.
At the same time, the bandit saw the light in the shadow’s hand suddenly move and quickly fly in his direction. In just a few seconds, the ball of light had already rushed in front of him.
“Bang!”
With a loud noise, a big hole had been made in the city wall by the fireball. The brigands in the center of the explosion didn’t know what had happened and were directly burned to ashes by the flames.
It was so powerful! Looking at the smoke which didn’t spread on the city wall, Locke was shocked.
“Come with me!”
Although he was extremely shocked, he knew that it was not the right time to think about it. He roared and rushed to the fortress.
Kerton and the others were also awakened by Locke’s roar. They pulled out their weapons and followed Locke into the fortress.
The several bandits were far away from the explosion center, but they were also stunned by the aftershock of the explosion. When they came to their senses, Locke and the others had already put their swords on their necks.
“We surrender. Don’t kill us!”
Feeling the chill on their neck, one of the bandits knelt directly, and the rest of the bandits also knelt, not daring to move at all.
After all, Lister still needed a lot of labor, and Locke didn’t kill them all. After binding up the bandits, he left a retinue to watch them and continued to attack with his men.
On the defensive work of the Stonehenge in the fortress, a group of bandits was carefully observing. They all heard the explosion in front of them, and it was obvious that someone was rushing into the mountain.
As long as they saw people, they would push down the huge stones in front of them, and these stones would ruthlessly crush their enemies!
However, they didn’t see anyone but saw a few red lights flying towards them first.
“Boom! Boom!”
In the explosion, more than 10 bandits were directly burned to ashes.
A familiar scene played out in other defensive works. The traps and defenses that the bandits were proud of were destroyed in this way.
“Boom! Boom!”
“Boom!”
…
‘Why are we here? What are we doing here?’ freewebnov(e)l.com
Looking at the fireballs that flew out of Athena’s hand one after another, Kerton and the others were somewhat numb. freewe(b)novel.com
From the moment they entered the fortress till now, they had solved a few disordered bandits. It could be said that they came in unimpeded. They almost “walked” into the fortress.
As soon as the bandits showed up, Athena would throw a fireball at them as long as they didn’t surrender. There was no need for Kerton and the others to do anything.
Locke and the others moved quickly towards the conference hall with an irresistible momentum.
“Chief, bad news! Capet is coming with his men!”
A bandit ran in in a hurry and reported to Angus.
“That loser came here with his men?”
Angus was stunned and didn’t want to believe it was true. In terms of the defense of the mountain, even if the armies of several nearby areas came to attack, they would suffer a lot.
Leth and Elsie were also shocked. ‘Is Capet, the loser, so powerful?’
Another explosive sound came from outside the conference hall.
Angus couldn’t sit still any longer. The truth was in front of him, and he had to believe it. His eyes were filled with coldness. He grabbed the magic wand and walked straight out of the conference hall. “I’m here to see what this Capet can do!”
As a member of the level-2 fire mages, he didn’t believe that there was anyone who could threaten him.
Leth and Elsie followed Angus closely with weapons in their hands.
10 minutes later.
“Puff!”
After killing a bandit who rushed up to obstruct him with a sword, Locke stopped and fixed his eyes on the front.
At this time, a large group of bandits appeared in front of them. There should be 80 or 90 people.
They were Angus, Elsie, and the others.
Angus waved his hand and all the bandits stopped.
Staring at Locke, Angus turned to Elsie and asked, “Is this the Locke Capet you mentioned?”
Locke was wearing ordinary combat armor, and his young face became more resolute after more than a month of training. Although he was only wearing ordinary armor, he could not hide the youth’s spirit and heroic posture.
But that was all. Angus didn’t feel fighting air or magic power from Locke either. He was just a strong ordinary person, not as strong as Elsie described.
“Is it this guy who beat you like this?”
Looking at Locke up and down, Leth burst into laughter.
Angus doubted whether Elsie had lied to him?
Seeing Angus’s questioning eyes, Elsie immediately promised, “Chief, I’m sure what I said is true!”
Angus nodded slightly. He didn’t intend to look into it now. Since Locke could come here from the gate, it was true that Locke was extraordinary.
His eyes fell on Locke again.
Looking at Locke, Angus’s eyes were filled with viciousness. He said in a low voice, “Boy, you’re a good man. You’re the first person to break into the fortress over the years.”
Although they knew that Athena was very strong, seeing the two red bars on Angus’s magic robe, Kerton and the others could not help but feel nervous and cautious.
Locke looked at Angus without fear. He shook his head and pointed at Angus with his long sword. “You’re wrong. I’m not a person who broke into the fortress. I’m the man who would destroy your Black Rock Bandits.”
“My Chief, look, this loser has got paranoia, ha-ha!”
Hearing Locke’s arrogant words, Leth was a little stunned and burst into laughter.
The bandits also laughed directly with obvious disdain. A man who was called the most useless man in Naton County said he was going to destroy a force with the level-2 fire mage.
How ridiculous it was!
Angus also laughed and looked at Locke contemptuously, “You are a loser. You are so arrogant. Do you really think you can be invincible by destroying a little trap and defensive works?”
With a disdainful smile, Angus looked at Athena and said, “Capet, if you give me the secret method and the beauty beside you, I can spare your life.”
Angus looked at Athena with lustful eyes. He had never expected to meet such a beauty in a remote place!
He had seen countless noblewomen. With just a glance, he was sure that the woman in front of him, regardless of her beauty or temperament, had surpassed all the women he had seen.
Locke didn’t pay attention to the secret method in Angus’s fantasy. He looked at Angus and said calmly, “You must die today.”
Athena was his teacher and friend, and no one was allowed to desecrate her. In his eyes, Angus was already a dead man.
Kerton and the others also looked at Angus angrily. After getting along with Athena for so long, she had been one of the most respectful people besides Locke for them. Now someone dared to insult her. Damn it!
