Chapter 609： Siege (Part 1)

night.

In the faint starlight, a group of orcs were searching carefully in the forest.

At a certain moment, the leading orc suddenly stopped, and he turned his head sharply to look in a direction beside him. Just as he swung the giant axe in his hand, he saw a figure rushing out from the darkness.

Bang!

A small encounter broke out suddenly.

Knight McCoy knocked an orc out, but in the process of losing his balance, he still inserted his long sword into the opponent's chest.

After landing, Knight McCoy rolled a few times, dodging a few slashes.

The companions behind him also rushed out. Custer Knight took the lead, and it was a combo to rush into the orc soldiers.

As the waves of blood rolled, three or four orc soldiers were already dead.

The orcs fought back desperately, but because they had already been attacked by the McCoy Knights and killed the strongest Skullbreaker in the team, the remaining ordinary orcs were no match for the two knights at all, and they were quickly killed off.

However, their dying counterattacks also caused a lot of casualties to these humans.

After the fierce battle, Knight McCoy came to a companion who was lying on the ground and whimpered.

"Master Mike, don't worry about me, I'm afraid I won't be able to follow you to Wind's Rest City."

Knight McCoy was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "What's your name?"

"My name is Jason. I have been fighting with your father for six years, but I have only just served as the team leader, so it is normal that you don't know me."

Knight McCoy looked at the little officer who had discouraged him from acting recklessly several times along the way, and there was an unspeakable feeling in his heart.

Viscount Custer saw that Knight McCoy remained silent for a long time, so he had to remind softly:

"We'd better leave as soon as possible, new orcs will soon be chasing here."

Only then did Knight Mack come back to his senses, handing his saber into Jason's hands, and said in a hoarse voice:

"Pull a few more backs..."

"I understand!" Jason nodded heavily.

Knight McCoy immediately got up and continued to the east without looking back.

Before long, they heard the faint sound of fighting behind them.

McCall Knight paused, but didn't stop.

A group of people crossed the mountains and ridges, trying to choose the path between the mountains and fields, and rushing towards the wind's rest city.

Along the way, they met more and more orc scouts, which meant that they were getting closer and closer to the main army of orcs.

However, they also gathered a few waves of soldiers from the western border who had broken down from the Tianduan Mountains on the way, and the number of the team increased instead of decreasing.

In mid-July, when Knight McCoy and the others arrived at Wind's End City, a hundred people had already gathered.

At this time, the orc army has not yet reached Wind's End City, but the distance is already very close.

The air in Wind's End was filled with panic and anxiety.

The city gates on three sides were tightly closed, and only the east gate was open.

It was crowded with people coming in and going out. There were not only the warriors of the Westland who came to support the Duke of St. Grian, like Knight Mack and Viscount Custer, but also a large number of warriors who heard that the orcs were coming and wanted to Civilians fleeing Wind's End.

At the same time, there were the refugees who fled to Wind's End from the cities that had been overrun by the orc army.

These refugees poured into the city and began to ask Storm's End for food, and they asked Storm's End to immediately send troops to recover their homes, and some refugees saw the residents fleeing and began to occupy the vacant houses, which caused some friction. Even fighting, in short, the wind's breath city at this time can be described as chaos.

The army in the city simply did not have enough manpower to maintain order, and they were busy preparing to defend the city. As long as there was no chaos in the city, they would not intervene.

Viscount Custer and Knight McCall rushed to Storm's End immediately after entering the city, wanting to ask to see Duke St. Grian, but unexpectedly, the guards at the entrance of the castle stopped them.

"Everyone in this city wants to see the Duke, but how can the Duke have time to meet them one by one?"

Seeing that the guards were making things difficult, Viscount Custer had to reveal his identity: "I am the lord of Little Rock, Viscount Custer, can you let me enter Storm's End?"

"Viscount?" The guard did not let him go, instead he pouted and said, "Has Little Rock held it? If you don't, your title will be lost."

Viscount Custer was speechless, and seeing that the other party really refused to let go, the two had to leave.

However, as the Viscount of the West, Custer had some connections in Wind's End City, and soon found an officer he once knew.

The officer was instructing his subordinates to demolish the houses near the city wall to make the log stone, and he didn't give a good face when he saw Viscount Custer:

"Want to see the Duke of St. Grian? Viscount Custer, I advise you not to waste your time. No one can enter Storm's End now, let alone a viscount who has lost his territory. Another earl was stopped before. Outside the castle."

Viscount Custer frowned, full of doubts in his heart.

Because the Duke of St. Grian was needed to stabilize people's hearts at this time, why did she block Storm's End and see no one?

A dangerous thought appeared in his mind, and he couldn't help but ask in a low voice:

"Lord Duke... Are you still in the city now?"

The officer glanced at Viscount Custer with complicated eyes, and then said coldly:

"If you want to run, run quickly! If you want to stay behind to kill the orcs, come and help! Don't think about nonsense there!"

Before Viscount Custer could speak, Knight McCoy stepped forward and said, "I want to kill orcs. Do you need help? Count me in."

The officer's expression softened a little, he pointed to the ruins in front of him, and said, "Okay, then you can help move those beams to the city wall."

"Okay." Knight McCoy didn't feel that this kind of work was humiliating, and immediately stepped forward to help.

Viscount Custer sighed and said, "I won't run anymore. Little Rock is gone What am I running for? I just want to know how many defenders are there in the city. Can Xicheng survive?"

The officer did not answer this question at all, but continued to command his subordinates to work.

Viscount Custer had no choice but to go to help demolish the house.

On the second day after Knight McCoy arrived in Wind's Rest City, the first army of orcs finally arrived outside Wind's Rest City.

Afterwards, groups of orc armies gathered from all directions in the west to the largest city in the west.

The gates of Wind's End City have all been closed, and entry and exit are prohibited.

And Storm's End, the door is still closed.

The Duke of St. Grian also disappeared.

Standing on the top of Wind's Breath City and looking down, on the opposite wilderness, a group of figures gathered together into a suffocating black tide, which filled the mountains and plains.

In front of the orc army formation, a large number of human refugees gathered, crying, screaming, and begging for mercy, resounding through the field.
