Global Lord: Start with Divine Favor-Chapter 558 - 8: Attacking the Fortress_2

Audrey’s forces were previously trapped here, unable to retreat.

The graveyard army in front of this teleportation device looks bizarre and exudes weirdness everywhere.

At this moment, a Corpse Witch King below was also looking coldly at Lin Rui, Audrey, and the others floating in the air.

The opponent’s strength was simply beyond imagination.

They covered the enemy with a large number of Weakness and Slow Skills, yet they had not devoured this opponent for several hours.

The opposing reinforcements’ Spirit Magic strike blotted out the sky. Countless ice spears shot down like a meteor shower, devastating the area completely.

It cautiously pulled its army back in front of the teleportation device, beginning to rely on the defensive line for layer by layer obstruction.

Two hours later, the Golden Pansy Clan’s main forces arrived.

All the heroes, riding on their mounts, gathered around Lin Rui, looking down at the defensive fortifications stretching for hundreds of miles!

Violet frowned tightly and asked, "Lord, are we really going to force an attack here and strike from this point? The densely packed Ghost Towers, bone spear launchers, Undead Pyramids, Spider Web Monster Towers, Skeleton Pillars, and Palace of Despair — all these defensive constructions fill every corner. We would suffer countless strikes just trying to advance, not to mention they have millions of soldiers. This is practically an iron fortress."

Hanna put her slender forefinger in front of her cherry lips, tone mocking, "These undead camp people, their hearts blackened by Dark Magic, how insidious. Look, unlike the Academy Faction, they’re not simply arrogant and conceited."

Audrey immediately put her hands on her hips, "You, you green tea girl, who are you double-dealing?"

"What? Can’t I just comment on these undead? Lord, look at her. She’s bullying and threatening me based on her strength. She might even throw corpses onto my bed at night to scare me. I’m so scared."

"Eh? How did you know I was planning to throw a zombie on your bed to make you experience the terror of sleep paralysis? Afraid? Good!"

One fears chaos in the world, and the other is fearless.

Lin Rui genuinely couldn’t be bothered to deal with them and turned to Violet, saying, "When I was here earlier, the undead army had even spread out around the outer edge of this defense point. If it weren’t for Audrey’s Breath of the Gods triggering and raising the Heroic Spirit level warriors inside the Pyramid, we wouldn’t even sense the teleportation gate inside this gigantic Pyramid."

Everyone turned to look at the center of the fortress, at the gigantic Pyramid towering over six hundred meters high. To hide the teleportation device, the Graveyard had spared no expense building this massive structure on the Sanitation No.2 Satellite to conceal the teleportation device within.

Surrounding this gigantic Pyramid were countless grand and terrifying defensive buildings. The layers of undead structures guarded the immense Pyramid without a break, like stars surrounding the moon.

Attacking from any direction required breaking through these defenses to advance into the Pyramid.

But the Golden Pansy Domain had not prepared many war machines before; sieges relied on powerful soldiers climbing the walls and capturing the gates directly.

Faced with such a hedgehog-like fortress, there really wasn’t an effective countermeasure.

Lin Rui said, "The Graveyard would go to such lengths to defend this place, there must be something extraordinary behind that teleportation device; we must see for ourselves."

In a typical war, Lin Rui wouldn’t be so headstrong, knowing the tiger was in the mountain yet still heading straight for it.

But for this Plane War, Lin Rui couldn’t take the usual path; otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to engage with the main quest.

Extraordinary circumstances require extraordinary people to walk extraordinary paths to succeed.

Hearing Lin Rui say this, the Golden Pansy Knight Order was the first to express their stance. After all, Wutong was their goddess, guiding countless knights on the Path of the Holy Grail.

So Violet was the first to say, "Then we, the Golden Pansy Knight Order, are willing to be the vanguard of the army, to smash all frontline defenses with firm and unyielding force."

Audrey, being Lin Rui’s little fangirl, supported mindlessly, saying, "Then it’s time for my Necromancer to shine. I can keep resurrecting troops and chop my way through, breaking down the defenses."

"Certainly." With two heroes already expressing their support, Lin Rui, as the lord of the territory and a hero himself, had his will to attack prevailing among the majority. He decisively ordered, "Have the Undead First and Second Divisions form up, serving as left and right wings to cover and destroy the flanks’ defenses, preventing any threat to the Mage Corps, Priest Corps, and archer units of the central army. With the Golden Pansy Knight Order as the vanguard, we will combat and advance, breach defenses, and directly target the teleportation device."

"Let Commander Terion lead the Black Banner Guard in formation, shielding the central army, covering the long-range corps and Priest Legion. Let the entire army form up and launch the attack!"

With a command from Lin Rui, all thirty thousand soldiers immediately came to attention, their chests straight, and the emblem of the Golden Pansy Clan on their chests shining brilliantly as they steadfastly followed the military orders.

However, as the Necromancers formed their layout and began advancing into the defenses, a Dark Forbidden Curse, "Dark Annihilation," struck down immediately.

This was akin to a tactical nuclear explosion occurring in the middle of the battle formation; in an instant, the Undead First Division was wiped out by over a thousand units.

This was the Undead First Division, bolstered by various traits by Audrey! Sturdy and powerful, elite and formidable, their Life Bars could not be easily destroyed. In large-scale wars, they could withstand countless sword strikes and sword slashes, and yet their Life Force remained resilient.

But facing this fierce hit, their Life Values for twenty squadrons were directly wiped out!

If this had hit the Undead Second Division, they would probably have lost four to five thousand soldiers and nearly collapsed, exiting the battle front.

Audrey immediately used the Resurrection Skill to pull up the fallen undead. At this moment, the densely packed undead army inside the defenses charged out, charging towards the Golden Pansy Domain’s forces amidst the shining attacks of the dense defense towers. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

The fierce slaughter on both sides erupted, with mad hacking and biting. The battlefield was soaked in blood and flesh, and burned by the Spiritual Energy strikes from the defense towers, the stench of undead decay pervaded the battlefield.

Undead Magic’s Slow and Weakness Skills were constantly covering the battlefield, diminishing the Golden Pansy Clan’s soldiers’ offensive.

Five minutes later, another tactical nuclear-like Forbidden Curse struck down, decimating thousands of soldiers on both sides. Countless Shattered Bones flew across the battlefield amidst the frosty shockwaves.

Audrey felt quite overwhelmed and asked, "Father, isn’t our loss immense with this frontal assault on these defenses?"

Lin Rui glanced at the vanguard Golden Pansy Knight Order. Their offensive remained unaffected; they truly were the ultimate super units within the territory.

The sturdy shields and intermittent Sub-Invincible Shields on them, even in constant attacks, still allowed them to fight valiantly. Violet’s hair was damp with sweat, sticking to her neck, yet she continued to charge with no signs of disarray.

Under her leadership, the Golden Pansy Knights had slain tens of thousands of undead monsters, carving out a passage several kilometers wide and a hundred meters deep.

Advancing over a hundred meters in a few minutes, the achievements were commendable. But compared to the several hundred miles long fortress, it was an insignificant feat.

To break through this fortress, they would have to prepare for a long-term siege.

Lin Rui maintained a firm stance, saying, "Continue the assault. Even if both undead divisions are defeated, we must break into the Pyramid."

The Tombyard Influence is so keen on defending this place — even if there isn’t an item related to the main quest, there must be something of significant value to the undead.

Perhaps this is an opportunity for Audrey’s subordinate troops to undergo a fundamental transformation.

Her undead forces have always lacked a backbone presence like the Black Banner Guard or Golden Pansy Knight Order. It’s time to find her a core troop type.
