Chapter 675 Stratholme Siege Battle 1
Holy Light's Hope Cathedral, as an important Holy Light Holy Land, the defensive force here is naturally very powerful!
Especially after the Kingdom of Stormwind was destroyed by the orcs, and the Holy Light Holy Land in North County Monastery was demolished by the brutal orcs, the defense of the Holy Light Holy Land was even more in place.
Any bunker that is under construction or has been completed will definitely cause intruders to suffer a bloody blow, and the undead army is no exception.
Zhang Weidao always thought that the Holy Light's Hope Cathedral would not be too big, probably similar to the North County Monastery.
It's just a church outside the main city. There's no need to build it too big. Isn't it normal to save resources?
Moreover, the cost of building large buildings in the wild is much higher.
When he saw the hundred-meter-tall cathedral and the large number of buildings built around the cathedral, he suddenly felt struck.
They are both Holy Light Holy Lands, so why is there such a huge gap?
Regardless of height or area, Light's Hope Cathedral crushes North County Monastery many times over!
Maybe Holy Light Church is willful if they have money!
In a place like the Eastern Expansion Territory, which is a wilderness and has not been developed for too long, a cathedral of the size of the main city was built here.
Now Zhang Weidao finally understood why Archbishop Faao came here to study ways to strengthen the Holy Light spell.
A large number of priests have gathered here. Whether it is research atmosphere or living environment, they must kill the main city of Lordaeron instantly.
When Kunpeng No. 1 landed on the outskirts of the city circle formed by the Holy Light's Hope Cathedral, Archbishop Fa'o excitedly ran over with a group of people.
Archbishop Fao had obviously stayed behind closed doors for too long, and exclamations of surprise could be heard from afar.
"What a big goblin airship! It's bigger than the warships originally parked on the beach of Nanhai Town!"
The other priests and paladins who had taken the Kunpeng No. 1 almost felt so ashamed that they found a hole in the ground when they saw the frustrated look of their boss.
They have obviously forgotten that when they first saw this behemoth flying, they acted like a country bumpkin, not much better than their boss.
This old man who was obsessed with studying the energy of the Holy Light was the first to discover the strengthening effect of the Holy Light on the human body.
As the single-handed founder of the Paladin profession, although most of the limelight has been taken up by Zhang Weidao, the time traveler, Archbishop Fa'ao can still be proud of him.
"Archbishop, this is much better than an airship! It can fly to the stars in the sky!"
After hearing Zhang Weidao's explanation, Archbishop Faao became even more interested.
"Quick, quick, let's go up and take a look, and then rush to support Stratholme!"
Under the urging of the old man, Zhang Weidao didn't waste any time and took everyone inside the battleship to visit the internal facilities.
Most of the people accompanying him had participated in the expedition to the planet Draenor.
After they returned to Holy Light's Hope Cathedral, they also mentioned various experiences of the expedition to Archbishop Fao.
However, Archbishop Fao cannot intuitively understand the relevant information based on their descriptions.
A huge black warship with a lot of weapons and equipment inside, as well as delicious food. This is all the information Archbishop Fao learned.
Now, under the leadership of Zhang Weidao, when he visited the high-tech equipment inside, he suddenly felt that his younger brothers were definitely a bunch of losers who only knew how to eat.
Seeing this miraculous internal facility, they actually only remembered the food in the cafeteria and the weapons on the battleship, but didn't pay attention to anything else.
Especially the magical item that can display images without any energy fluctuations is really amazing!
As he looked at it, Archbishop Fao suddenly discovered that the picture displayed on the magical object looked a bit familiar.
Soon, he saw some clues.
The picture displayed by the object was from a vertical downward perspective, so he couldn't get used to it for a while.
But there are some buildings in that city that Archbishop Fao is still very familiar with.
The most conspicuous among them is the Stratholme Church where Archbishop Fao lived for many years before he became famous.
If you can’t even recognize the church you’ve lived in for decades, that’s really wrong!
Several other landmark buildings also clearly indicate that this is the largest city in the Eastern Frontier.
Stratholme!
Judging from the images on several screens, there was something looking down from the sky, but Archbishop Fao could not figure out what it was that could achieve this level of surveillance.
Although the Spell Eye can achieve this effect, that magic item must be fixed with something in the air to achieve the effect in the picture.
If it were placed on a flying bird, it would obviously not be able to float in such a stable manner.
Moreover, there are powerful mages stationed in Stratholme City, who can definitely detect those peeping magic eyes in the sky.
Being able to peek into the city so safely is not something that can be achieved by ordinary means!
Archbishop Fa'o, who couldn't figure out what was going on after much thought, quickly put the matter behind him and turned his attention to the undead outside the city.
Stratholme is a large city with a very advantageous geographical location.
The entire city is built in a recessed position of the mountains, like a very huge valley.
If the mountains stretching for hundreds of kilometers behind it were opened up, this city could border the High Elf Kingdom in the north.
This is a general terrain, a bit like the Beijun Valley, but the exit of the city is blocked by a large river, forming a natural moat.
However, it is still unclear whether this huge moat exists naturally or is created by magicians.
The power of the spell is so powerful that it is not difficult to create a river as wide as the Yangtze River with the wave of your hand.
Since there is a wide river blocking it, it would be a bit astonishingly difficult for the undead army to attack the city.
Facing a bridge built over a large river, like the Yangtze River Bridge, even a guy like the undead who is not afraid of death will have a headache when he sees it.
The undead are just brave and not afraid of death, but they are definitely not brainless people.
Although there is indeed no such thing as a brain inside their skulls.
But thinking about problems requires more than brains.
Soul, only soul is the key to life!
The brain is just an auxiliary item for flesh-and-blood creatures to think, and its nature is similar to that of a computer.
Computer software is similar in nature to the soul.
Using a computer to control an excavator for cooking is the ultimate secret of robot operation.
When the robot sees this situation where there is only one narrow road leading to the enemy city, it will stop and search for countermeasures.
If it were a real life form like the undead, all the stakes would naturally have been considered thoroughly.
Then there is no other ending than a bridge of death, except that the soul returns to the Shadow Realm.
It is impossible to attack a city directly, and there is no difference between such an action and death.
The person responsible for conquering the entire Eastern Frontier is a psychic lord from Maldraxxus.
This psychic lord named Samat, if Zhang Weidao knew his name, he would definitely pronounce his name as Shamat on purpose.
Samat looked at the big city in front of him, scratched the skull's head with some headache, and then continued to command his lichs to build a ziggurat in the forest.
Although the name is a bit weird, Samat's way of thinking is not weird at all.
Build several ziggurat towers and use the ziggurat towers to increase the power of the lich.
The nature of Lich's power is that he is a powerful spellcaster who prefers Death Ice.
If the ziggurat increases it, their death ice power will definitely increase exponentially.
When the time comes, several ziggurats working together will definitely be able to freeze this big river into a glacier.
Once the glacier freezes and takes shape, the original chasm becomes a thoroughfare. Let's see how the defenders on the city wall defend themselves.
Which company has the best siege technology? Maldraxxus looks to Samat!
Samat, who has a very pragmatic work attitude, brought a lot of skeleton mages with him to summon ziggurat phantoms from the Shadow Realm.
Other undead soldiers threw in the bones and gravel they picked up as raw materials to fill the shadows, gradually turning them into entities.
The construction and shaping of death-type buildings is so magical that the entire construction state looks almost like printing with a three-dimensional printer.
Of course, this also has a lot to do with the group of skeleton mages who look ordinary in appearance.
What the Shadow Realm provides to the material world is only a piece of technical information, and the material materials need to be provided by the material world.
But the power that really makes it take shape depends entirely on the magic power of those skeleton mages.
If you just look at the shabby appearance of these skeleton mages, they are just ordinary skeleton soldiers, the kind of skeleton soldiers without weapons.
However, the power of the spellcaster cannot be seen just by looking at the appearance.
They don't need a strong body, they just need to have strong mental power, which is enough.
And a skeleton mage who can rely on strong mental power to maintain his body in suspension is obviously not a normal skeleton mage.
Among these guys, none is an ordinary skeleton mage.
The reconnaissance satellite can only view the surface of the forest, and at most it can detect a large number of undead gathering under the forest.
Zhang Weidao only believed that the undead army was planning an attack on the city.
Little did he know that they were a group of powerful spellcasters who controlled the power of death.
Yes, that is a group of lichs!
Although lich generally only have the strength of the magister level, those powerful ones among the lich have the strength of the great magister or even the demigod level.
Chapter completed!
