Boom.
Boom.
Boom.
Even before the undead reached the vicinity of the fortress, the dwarven leader initiated the offensive.
The enormous cannons ignited, unleashing a barrage that erupted amidst the undead ranks.
The charging undead knights were struck by the projectiles, their bodies shattering into countless fragments scattered across the ground, seizing the moment while the dwarves reloaded their cannons.
The remaining undead knights pressed their advance towards the fortress.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Another round of cannon fire ensued, obliterating numerous undead knights, who were now perilously close to the fortress.
With the cannons rendered ineffective, the dwarven commander swiftly ordered the dwarven knights to charge.
Attack! In an instant, the dwarven warriors cracked their reigns, their wild boars lunging forward towards the undead knights.
The clash between the undead knights and the dwarven knights was imminent.
The immense force of the charge enabled the undead knights to effortlessly cleave the dimminionive dwarven knights from their mounts with a single swing of their sides.
In contrast, the undead knights were seamlessly united with their steeds and their size disparity further complicated matters.
Although the dwarves dawned protective gear that could withstand the physical assaults of the undead knight sidesthes, it was essential to remember that the primary means of the undead knights attacks were rooted in curses and psychological warfare.
At this juncture, the dwarven leader at top the fortress noticed that those undead knights who had been shattered by cannon fire were astonishingly regenerating with some even rising to rejoin the fry.
This utterly subverted the dwarf leader's perception.
Given the severity of the blow that shattered his body, he should have been dead beyond doubt.
As the dwarves lacked an air force and their knights were engaged in combat with the undead knights, their cannons could only target the sky to combat the gargoyles.
Even a standard gargoyle would be reduced to fragments by cannonball.
Yet, these creatures had the inexplicable ability to regenerate.
This was utterly bewildering and profoundly unreasonable.
The dwarven knights outside were no match for the undead knights, compelling the dwarf leader to dispatch the soldiers within the castle for assistance.
These dwarven knights were the elite cavalry crafted by the Firebeard clan, and it was anticipated that this would be their debut battle.
However, they were unexpectedly overwhelmed by their adversaries.
In the sky, Bayou unleashed several fireballs upon the fortress's protective shield, merely causing ripples across its surface.
It must be acknowledged that the shield exhibited a degree of technological advancement allowing unrestricted attack from within to the outside functioning as a one-way barrier.
As Bayu persistently assaulted the shield, she discerned certain clues.
It appeared that the shield was powered by some energy source within the fortress.
With her continued onslaught, the shield's luminescence began to weaken.
Sensing the opportune moment, Bayou conjured a sighthe in her hand and leaped downwards.
The dwarf leader, observing the shield's continued resilience under attack and the catastrophic defeat of his knights outside, felt his heart bleed.
Yet, he found himself powerless.
The only ranged weapon at his disposal was the cannon, which proved ineffective against that human adversary, forcing him to merely watch as she danced through the skies, assaulting the fortress's shield.
As Bayou descended, the dwarf leader tightened his grip on his Warhammer.
Acutely aware that the shield was on the verge of collapse.
Bayou plummeted from the sky.
Her small fists ignited with black flames.
Utilizing the momentum of her descent, she struck the shield with a powerful punch.
Besides served only to enhance her attributes in an instant, the shield shattered, obliterated by by blow.
She then teleported to the top of the castle wall, landing with precision.
The dwarf leader clutching his warhammer charged at Bayou with ferocity.
The hammer crackled with arcs of lightning.
Fully enchanted by the storm.
As the dwarf leader leapt high, swinging the hammer down towards her with all his might.
Bayou grasped the sythe with one hand, spun gracefully, and with her right hand positioned the sythe across her left shoulder, struck at the leaping dwarf.
The scythe ignited with black flames, its ringing bells, producing a clear, resonant sound.
The dwarf leader felt a sharp pain in his head just before the thunderous collision of the lightning hammer and the black flame scythe.
Bang.
Remarkably, Bou's scythe sh the scythe, imbued with dark magic, is extraordinarily sharp, capable of effortlessly obliterating other equipment of equal rank, including that of the dwarves.
Furthermore, it must be noted that among all leader class beings, the dwarf leader ranks among the weakest.
At this moment, Bayou experienced a slight tingling in her hands.
Yet, it was of little concern.
With a swift flick of the scythe, the flames adorning it extinguished.
The dwarf leader fell before Bayou with ease, and the fate of the other dwarves was even more dire.
The dwarves hastily brandished their firearms, aiming them at Bayou and pulling the triggers.
Undeterred, she advanced steadily towards them.
Her magical barrier deflecting every bullet.
With a metallic clang, Bayou dispatched them with two swift strokes, annihilating the cannons in the process.
Meanwhile, in the skies above, Xiaoin observed Bayou<unk>s prowess with admiration.
Relieved to see her dispatching foes with such ease, she maneuvered her griff into land within the fortress.
Impressive.
Truly, Xiao Yianua exclaimed, giving Byu a thumbs up.
As Bayou turned to acknowledge Xiao Yianua, a sudden peculiar sensation coursed through her body.
She quickly scanned her surroundings and noticed a more distinguished looking building within the fortress, presumably the dwelling of the dwarf leader.
"Please wait here for a moment.
I need to use the restroom," Bayu said, her face growing increasingly flushed.
Without glancing at Xiao Lianua, she teleported directly to the entrance of the building.
Hastily stepping inside.
Unfortunately, teleportation does not allow one to pass through walls.
It only permits movement within a visible range.
Xiaoin puzzled scratched her head.
The restroom.
Chapter 128.
Social death.
The living habits of dwarves are quite similar to those of humans.
They construct houses, sleep in beds, and possess various furnishings within their abodess.
Unlike goblins or weirwolves, who content themselves with merely laying on the ground amidst some grass, dwarves exhibit their own technology and civilization, classifying them as highly intelligent beings.
At this moment, Bayou pushed the door open, took a quick glance at the interior decor of the room, and hastily closed the door behind her.
Approximately 10 minutes passed, yet Bayou had not emerged from the dwelling.
Outside, Xiao Yinshi was eager to discover whether there were any treasures hidden within the fortress when suddenly she paused, perplexed.
What could be taking the esteemed one so long? Is she perhaps attending to a private matter? A sudden flash of insight illuminated Xiao Leian's mind, and her suspicion solidified.
Stealing herself, she cautiously approached the building Bayou had entered.
As she drew nearer, she slowed her pace, moving stealthily like a thief.
Pressing herself against the wall, she strained to hear any sounds from within, and her thoughts were further confirmed.
A soft sound escaped by us lips, and Xiao Yini clearly heard it.
A mischievous smile crept across her face as she pressed her ear against the door, eager to listen more intently.
I knew it.
Who would have thought she was engaged in such an activity? This was her chance to catch her offguard.
Xiao Yinshu listened more intently, her conviction only strengthening.
She had not anticipated that the esteemed one could possess such a gentle side.
It seemed to emerge only at this moment.
With a cheeky expression, Xiao Yinshi leaned against the wall, attempting to discern the sounds more clearly.
She moved towards a gap in the door frame where the sounds would be more pronounced.
Her ear pressed against the door.
She couldn't te help but giggle, entirely forgetting that this was a double door that opened inward as she inadvertently applied more pressure.
The door creaked open under her weight, causing her to stumble and fall to the floor.
The sound of the doors swinging wide echoed in the room, leaving Xiao Yinshu momentarily dazed.
"Oh no!" The two women locked eyes and an awkward silence enveloped them.
Xiao Yinshu was stunned, never having anticipated such an embarrassing encounter.
Lying on the ground, she glanced up at Bayou, her face flushed with an awkward smile.
