Chapter 2059: Chapter 687: Spirit of Anger of Blackflame Mountain Pass, the Hour of Vengeance Has Come!

Fuck!

When I first saw those Ratmen, I knew for sure these creatures would be a disaster, but I never thought the dev team would play it out this big.”

“It wasn’t just you who overlooked it, everyone overlooked the potential impact of the Ratmen. It turns out the civilizational factions of the continent really underestimated the Gnolls, and the Gnolls knew how to continuously launch offensives on the surface to cover up the Ratmen digging below.

We also underestimated these barbarians.

But we can discuss the post-war summary later. For now, the priority is to gather people, preserve our living forces, and then plan for other actions.”

Old Qin exhaled a ring of smoke. He pointed to a spot on the map with his hand and said:

“We’re going here!”

“Fortress of Courage?”

Stick Brother and the Old Soldier of Qing Dynasty exchanged glances. They looked at Lord Qin, whose eyes were bloodshot, not concealing his anger anymore.

He said:

“We’re going to launch a counterattack there!

Don’t look at me like that. I know we don’t have enough manpower, and I know the Gnolls aren’t easily defeated, but Loyal Brother gave me a proposal a few days ago, suggesting a concept.

When you guys fought the Gnoll warlord Kenbort in the Andma Hills, didn’t Lady Triss use the Nocturne Core Crystal to launch the Star-world Tear?”

As soon as Lord Qin said this, Stick Brother and the Old Soldier of Qing Dynasty immediately understood.

Actually, it’s straightforward. Since the position is destined to be breached, just give it up! After the enemy takes it, throw a “nuclear bomb” here.

Honestly, this plan is crazy, but it’s not unfeasible.

Cheche jumped up excitedly beside them, raised his hand high, and shouted:

“Me, me, me! I know the Star Realm Tear Technique! All Psychics who participated in the final battle in Andma Hills know this! We just need to gather everyone and use the Nocturne Core Crystal as the energy core, we can absolutely blast these dog-bastards to hell!”

“Don’t get too excited.”

Old Qin glanced at Cheche and said:

“It’s still the same thing, gather the people first, break through, and then talk about other things.

All of you!

Immediately go to the forum, pull everyone still alive into a group, and have them figure out how to gather as guilds, then converge at position one. If it really can’t be done, then retreat.

But don’t go to the last position at the rear.

Bah!

The Gnolls think they’re ruthless enough, that their evil offensive can scare us. Well, let them see how we foreigners respond to malevolence! I wasn’t raised to be scared, start contacting people first, I’ll choose a breakout route…”

“No need! Lord Qin, let’s go through the tunnels!”

Perhaps because Gorm didn’t unleash power today, Giant Shark regained his intelligence.

Leaning on his Gorm Decapitator’s Great Axe, he said sternly:

“We’ve killed Ratmen in that valley before, these bastards are individually weaker than Gnolls, cowardly too, they only dare to make noise because they have numbers. Let’s charge out through the tunnels they dug from Blackflame Mountain Pass!

As long as there are enough of us, as long as we sprint fast enough, these idiots won’t be able to stop us.

I’ll lead at the front as our vanguard, chop them down one by one!”

“Right! Giant Shark makes sense, the tunnels have another advantage, the Gnolls can’t spare too many to chase us, the terrain limits them, no matter how many they have, it’s useless.”

Stick Brother also agreed with this tactic, and Old Qin, after thinking for a moment, nodded and said even more boldly:

“If that’s the case, then we don’t need to have our brothers find a gathering point. Just find a Ratman tunnel nearby and jump in, charge in one direction and we’ll end up together eventually. No time to waste, send messages to the other brothers now!

Remember, make sure they bring NPCs, as many as possible.

Blackflame Mountain Pass has no civilians, as long as these soldiers survive, they can return to the battlefield.

Fortress of Courage is big enough, it also needs people to defend. We can’t stay there forever. After we leave, whether Fortress of Courage can be held depends on whether the NPCs we bring are tough enough.”

“Matriarch! Grand Marshal Huggesen, amidst the clan warriors, has already reached the sixth line of defense. We’ve taken half of Blackflame Mountain Pass! That overconfident Lord Hether tried to block the Grand Marshal but was driven back.

The vampires have no more chances!

We’ve won!”

The Gnoll messenger, riding a Bipedal Dragon, returned excitedly to report victory. After witnessing firsthand the impregnable Blackflame Mountain Pass half conquered by one charge of the Pī zhǎo Clan’s forces, no Gnoll held any doubt about the outcome of this Black Disaster.

This glorious victory elevated Matriarch Botana’s prestige within the Pī zhǎo Clan to new heights, yet Botana herself wasn’t overly joyous about receiving this triumphant report.

Her real concern wasn’t how much of Blackflame Mountain Pass could be taken, but when the most challenging rear positions would start to crumble.

The secret weapon buried at Blackflame Mountain Pass at dusk has been activated, yet the unexpected arrival of the Supreme Lord Silver Dwarf disrupted the Pī zhǎo Matriarch’s plans. Although it’s certain that one Old Dwarf couldn’t possibly stop tens of thousands of angry Undead, the fall of Blackflame Mountain Pass is just a matter of time.

But considering it was recently declared sacred land by Mother Earth, heaven knows if the Dwarves and that peculiar group of Transia Barbarians will cause more unexpected trouble.
