www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapters of the World Tree game!
The stars appear and dusk falls.
Manya is destined to have a sleepless night tonight.
Little lights light up in the city, from near to far.
What is brighter than the lights are the burning torches.
The torches gathered together like endless fireflies, spreading continuously on the criss-crossing streets and extending into the distance.
That was the angry people and the rebels who entered Manyia.
They danced bright flags in the vast night, moving towards the southeast of the city.
At the end of the road, a towering castle stood in the darkness, like a monster in the darkness, overlooking the ancient royal city.
That is Dororia Castle, known as the "Immortal Fortress".
Doloria means border fortress in the ancient Saighs language.
This majestic castle with a city wall of 20 meters and a tower of 50 meters high is the tallest building in the entire Mania except the Eternal Cathedral, and is also the commanding height of the entire city of Mania.
When the Holy Mania Empire was still an alliance of slave city-states, this castle already stood in the city of Mania.
At that time, the Mania City-State Alliance only had Mania, a city founded by escaped slaves, and Dolorea Castle was built by Mania to resist the former slave owners. Military fortress.
Later, Charles I, the founding monarch of Holy Mania, who was elected consul, expanded the fortress, used it as his own castle, and changed the city-state republic to a hereditary kingship.
With the city of Manyia as the center, he expanded all the way, and finally achieved the miraculous achievement of becoming an emperor as a slave.
Doloria Castle has therefore become one of the symbols of imperial authority for the entire Holy Maniea Empire.
Of course, thousands of years have passed.
Times are developing, and magic technology is also constantly improving.
Today, many nobles are no longer satisfied with living in ancient, dark castles, but prefer to live in beautiful manors with magical defense barriers.
The defensive role of Dororia Castle has gradually lost its meaning due to the continuous expansion of the empire, and it no longer has the value of resisting foreign enemies.
For this reason, this impregnable castle gradually transformed from a royal domain into a royal prison, specially used to imprison political prisoners who rebelled against the royal family and nobles, as well as heretics who opposed the eternal church.
Since then, Dororia Castle and Prison has become a terrifying legendary place for the people of the empire, feared and revered by others...
It is like a mountain weighing on the hearts of the people in Mani City, making people breathless; it is also like a devil monitoring the entire city, which makes people talk about it.
On weekdays, even on the streets near the Dororia Castle Prison, there are very few pedestrians. Some are just soldiers patrolling back and forth.
But today, it is different.
Dolorea Castle, outside the fortress.
The smoke is billowing, sometimes covering the sky, sometimes revealing the stars.
The streets were dotted with flames, and even in the darkness, you could see dense crowds of people illuminated by the flames.
There are heavily armed imperial soldiers, mighty mercenary knights, civilians holding flags high, and wanderers with countless patches on their clothes.
People are old and young, male and female. The only thing that is the same is the golden armband tied to the right arm, shining brightly under the starlight and torches.
Waving different weapons and shouting the same slogan, they rushed towards the prison of Dororia Castle in the darkness...
"Long live life! Capture Dororia!"
"Long live life! Capture Dororia!"
The shouts were like a tsunami, drowning the darkness.
On the tall tower of Dororia, the noble officers and soldiers guarding the castle looked shocked as they looked at the crowd that was as big as the ocean.
"Master Warden! The gate of the outer city has been captured by the rioters! The rebels have entered the city and are leading the mob towards us!"
The soldier who sent the message climbed up and down, and came to the warden who was standing on the tower, looking into the distance, and said in panic.
"Rebels? Where did the rebels come from?"
The prison warden, who was born into a noble family, looked confused.
"The Guards! They are the Guards! They are wearing the standard equipment of the Guards. I am afraid that the Seventh Guards Regiment outside the city has rebelled! Not only that, there seem to be mercenaries!"
The messenger said hurriedly.
After hearing what he said, the warden's eyes widened in disbelief.
He took a deep breath, picked up the telescope produced in the Elf Forest, and looked outside the castle.
Under the starlight and flames, when the warden saw clearly the iconic silver armor of the 7th Guards Regiment and the mercenaries and citizens rushing towards him with them, his expression soon changed. He changed slightly and took a breath of cold air.
For a time, his expression became more serious.
"Everyone listens to the order! Enter the highest alert state! Please activate the defensive magic, Lord Daniel! Archers and magic crystal cannon gunners are ready, don't let these rebels in!"
The warden looked at the direction of the inner city, then at the sky, took out the command sword in his hand, and drank.
Following his order, magic crystal cannons with deep muzzles were set up by the defenders, aiming at the streets outside the castle and at the people who continued to pour into the streets.
The archers also tightened their bowstrings, mounted their arrows, and aimed at the citizens and soldiers who gradually surrounded the castle.
In the darkness, the castle defenders standing on the towers faced off against the rebels who gradually surrounded the castle.
"People outside, get out of here quickly. If you take another step forward, we will fire cannons and arrows!"
Seeing the crowd gathering outside the castle, the warden's scalp went numb. He suppressed the fear in his heart and shouted using amplification magic.
Dolorea Castle is impregnable.
But there were too many people gathered outside the city.
Faced with these thousands of rebels, even if the warden had confidence in the castle, he could not help but be frightened by this exaggerated scene.
And outside the castle, among the dense crowd.
Soon, people separated to both sides, and several professionals dressed as mercenaries stood up.
The leader is none other than "Hound" Tim.
Besides him, there were several mysterious people wearing hawk-beak hoods whose appearance was unclear.
Recognizing Tim's identity, the warden was furious:
"Tim? Do you know what you are doing?! Your current actions are blatantly hostile to the empire and blatantly hostile to the church!"
However, "Hound" Tim just shook his head slightly:
"Lord Eichendorf, don't say any more meaningless words."
As he spoke, he looked solemn:
"Open the gate of the castle and surrender to us, otherwise, we will attack by force... And if we attack by force, we cannot guarantee your safety after victory in the battle."
The warden was stunned for a moment, then laughed angrily.
His eyes swept over the vast majority of the people under the tower who did not even have decent equipment, and he snorted:
"A bunch of rabble! Do you even want to attack Dororia Castle Prison?!"
After speaking, he turned around and ordered to the soldiers on the castle:
"Fire cannons! Fire arrows! Let these mobs know the fate of the rebellion!"
With his order, the cannons rang out, and along with the rain of arrows, they fell into the crowd outside the castle.
For a moment, the fire caused by the magic explosion exploded in the crowd, and the rebels at the front fell one after another in the rain of arrows.
Seeing the tragic death of their companions, the rebels who besieged Dororia Castle instantly fell into chaos and began to retreat.
"Tim" looked solemn.
He chopped down the arrows and shouted:
"Everyone, look for cover! Hold on! Don't mess! Hold on!"
Then he looked at the mysterious man wearing a hood beside him:
"Master Cyber!"
The mysterious man beside him nodded and shouted in a certain direction:
"苳苳! Prepare to attack the city!"
With a shout, the crowd on the street hundreds of meters away slowly gave way, and heavy magic crystal cannons were pushed out by the resistance forces.
Seeing the heavy magic crystal cannon appearing on the street, the warden's expression changed slightly and he exclaimed:
"Elven Magic Crystal Heavy Cannon!"
Elven Magic Crystal Heavy Cannon...
That is a kind of heavy artillery that only the elves of the Elf Forest have. It was very powerful when attacking the demon army some time ago.
Even in Mania, the warden of Dororia had heard about it. He specifically looked for the picture album and saw what this legendary heavy artillery looked like.
It is said that in the final siege of the demon fortress in the Southern Territory, the elves blasted open the demon wall with just one shot...
However, today, he did not expect that he would encounter such a terrifying opponent on the battlefield.
Thinking of the power of the elf magic crystal heavy artillery, the warden's face became paler.
The next moment, the rebels activated the magic inscriptions, bursts of light gathered on the body of the heavy magic crystal cannon, and with a deafening roar, the magic crystal cannon spewed out terrifying elemental bombs.
A violent explosion exploded on the wall of Dororia Castle, and the entire castle seemed to be shaking.
The soldiers on the tower were shaking and staggering, and some of the unlucky ones were torn to pieces by elemental bombs falling on the city wall.
After several roars, a crack appeared on the surface of the solid castle...
"Not good!"
Feeling the trembling of the castle, the warden's expression changed drastically. He picked up a rolling messenger and shouted:
"Isn't it good?! Lord Daniel's defensive magic is not good yet?!"
"Ready... Preparing! Lord Daniel was meditating just now, and just now he had his hands free..."
The soldier said in fear.
"Meditation?! When are you still meditating! These legendary mages with weird personalities!"
The warden cursed.
As soon as he finished cursing, another series of cannon shots came from outside the castle, and the whole castle trembled again.
While avoiding the gunfire, the warden raised his command sword and ordered:
"Fire the arrow! Fire the arrow hard! Fire! Fire!"
Both sides fired artillery fire inside and outside the castle, and they were involved in a fierce battle.
Elemental bombs fell into Dolorea Castle one after another, and fireworks bloomed all over the castle.
Among the crowds besieging the castle, explosions continued to be heard. With each roar, a group of rebels were torn to pieces amidst the screams.
Finally, when another elemental bomb focused on a section of the wall of Dororia Castle, the 20-meter-high wall finally collapsed.
Seeing this scene, the warden's face turned pale, while the morale of the resistance army was lifted.
"The wall has collapsed! Charge! Charge to the castle! Hurry! Take advantage of the moment and capture Dororia!"
"Hound" Tim shouted, raising his sword.
Following his order, the rebels raised their red flags high, shouting, waving their weapons, and setting up ladders as they rushed toward the smoke-filled Dororia Castle.
Arrows from both sides continued to fly, and the shouts were like thunder.
Braving artillery fire and arrows, the guards, mercenaries, adventurers and ordinary citizens rushed forward.
They fell one after another, but every time the people in front fell, the people behind would follow up and once again take over the tattered flags in their hands that had long been covered by arrows and artillery fire. Rushing towards Dororia Castle...
"Long live life! Capture Dororia!"
The rebels shouted angrily.
In that shout, endless anger that had been suppressed for a long time seemed to erupt, like a gushing volcano.
"Long live life! Capture Dororia!"
Screams came one after another, ranging from teenagers to elderly people. The roars of men and the shouts of women were intertwined, converging into a tsunami-like cry. At one moment, it even overwhelmed the continuous Heavy artillery fire broke out.
Under the overwhelming roar, the defenders on Dororia Castle felt that the castle beneath them seemed to be shaking.
Finally, after an unknown number of people were sacrificed, the rebels carrying ladders, arrows and artillery fire rushed under Dororia Castle!
"Block them! Block them quickly!"
On the castle, the warden waved his command sword, with a frightened face and roared at the top of his lungs.
However, there were too many rebels besieging the castle.
When the endless crowd of people gathered from all directions, and when one after another simple ladders were set up on the cracked city wall, the situation on the defenders' side suddenly took a turn for the worse.
However, just when the rebels at the forefront finally climbed onto the city wall and fought with the prison defenders, a light blue beam of light suddenly shot into the sky...
The faint blue light gradually enveloped the entire Dororia Castle, and a vast power spread around the castle.
In the shocked sight of the rebels, the entire Dororia Castle was radiating a faint light, and then, the places damaged by artillery fire began to slowly recover.
At the same time, the rebels who were climbing the city wall suddenly felt pain in their bodies, and light blue flames spontaneously ignited on their bodies.
With a series of screams, they, like the ladder, were reduced to ashes in the flames.
Seeing this horrific scene, the rebels on the street fell silent for a moment.
"Legendary Solidification Spell...[Doloria Barrier]!"
"Hound" Tim's pupils suddenly shrank.
Dolorea is known as the Immortal Fortress, not just because it has taller and stronger walls than ordinary castles.
But because it has a unique solidification magic in the entire Segas world, a legendary magic that integrates defense, recovery and attack that was created and solidified by Emperor Karl himself, who was both skilled in magic and martial arts - [Doloria barrier】.
Although this solidification magic has shortcomings such as a long activation time, a small radiation range, and must be controlled by a legendary mage, once it is activated, Dororia will be invincible.
Above the castle, the warden's eyes widened when he witnessed the changes in the castle, and his expression soon became excited and excited.
He laughed heartily, and that cheerful laugh soon turned into a ferocious smile.
I saw him looking at the rebels outside the city bitterly, raising his sword again, and shouted to the defenders:
"Defense magic activated! Fire! Destroy these **** rebels!"
However, not long after he gave the order, there was a commotion inside the castle.
The warden frowned slightly and looked behind him in confusion, only to see a soldier crawling over with his head covered in blood and a look of panic on his face.
He looked frightened, and vaguely seemed to be a little confused:
"Prisoner! Oh no! The prisoners in the dungeon rioted! They broke out of the dungeon and broke into the castle!"
"What did you say?!"
The warden was stunned for a moment.
