Chapter 399: The Behemoth Loses Its Mind, and the Fortress Is Destroyed
Thundercloud County.

The legendary witcher, Rosalind, has arrived.

“Mrs. Rosalind.”

Shaya saluted to show respect, not only because the other party was a legend, but also because the other party was Grand Duke Meyers’ most trusted right-hand man.

“Can the Northern Province stop the orcs’ attack?”

Rosalind asked, and Shaya looked at him and asked curiously:
“Will the Emperor and the Grand Guild send reinforcements?”

“will not.”

Rosalind shook her head. This was decided from the beginning.

“Then I don’t know.”

Shaya was helpless. She had no army, and the noble coalition of the North Wind Province had been defeated by the orcs more than once or twice.

“Your grandfather asked the emperor for the Northern Wind Province for thirty years, so this place cannot be occupied by orcs. As long as we deal with the Werewolf King’s Court, we can stop the orcs’ invasion this time.”

Rosalind looked at Shaya, and her eyes told Shaya that she must find a way to solve this problem.

“It is almost impossible for the Silver Moon Court, one of the six great courts, to defeat it with only the Northern Wind Province.”

There was nothing Shaya could do. She had only been in Beifeng Province for less than a year.

“The werewolves failed to break through the fortress of the Northern Province, which means they are not that powerful.”

Rosalind said, he didn’t think werewolves were that powerful.

“Legends will not come to war. The Northern Province must resist the invasion of orcs. This is related to the survival of the Meyers family.”

“Whether the bloodline of the Meyers family can continue, the North Wind Province is very important. Your grandfather has already lost thirty years of preparation time. There can be no mistakes in the remaining thirty years.”

“Myers’ bloodline has been severely corroded by the nightmare and is growing towards an inhuman form.”

“This is a curse from the gods, and only the power of the gods can fight against this curse.”

Of course Shaya also understood that she had gone to the sea in order to find the blasphemer and ask him about his knowledge and heritage in this area.

“I will give the order.”

She said this, and other than that, she had no better solution. The population and army of the North Wind Province were in the hands of those nobles.

……

Twilight Province, in Twilight Fortress.

Harald the Lionheart returned to the fortress covered in blood. Every pore of his body was seeping with blood. In a short period of time, the blood that flowed out exceeded the total amount of blood in a human body.

But the blood was still seeping out, and the body of this legendary Lionheart King was shaking, his flesh and bones were trembling at a slight but extremely fast frequency.

Around him, a dozen magicians continuously released life magic to suppress the shock in Harald’s body.

After a long time, Harald finally calmed down, his nostrils dilated and stiffened, and his breathing was forced to slow down.

“Behemoth’s power is enough to shake the earth.”

Harald exhaled a mouthful of blood-red mist and said helplessly that he had already stood at the pinnacle of the empire’s legend, but even so, facing the powerful Behemoth King and the Behemoth, he was still suppressed.

Beside Harald, Twilight Marquis Hick Columbus said solemnly:

“The fighting power of the Raven Orcs is the weakest among the six royal courts, but they were able to witness the inheritance of knowledge from the wild years. With their help, the Behemoths gained a lot of power from ancient times, including the Behemoth beast, which was an embryo found in a piece of amber jade in the North.”

“If you want to fight against King Behemoth, I think you need to block his memory first.”

“In this case, we need to ask Brener to come over.”

Harald frowned and said, Brenna is a legendary magician who specializes in soul magic. He is now in the Cathedral of Light outside the imperial capital, helping the emperor manage the faith of light.

It’s not that there are no other legends in the empire who are good at soul magic, but if they want to block the memories of King Behemoth and the Behemoth… only this one person can do it.

“But… would it be better to turn King Behemoth into a beast without wisdom?”

Harald didn’t know, but he knew clearly that if the war in Twilight Fortress was not changed, there would be no need to wait until the overwhelming number of orcs captured the fortress before the Behemoth King and the Behemoth would be able to dig a hole out of it.

He was powerful, but he could not stop King Behemoth from attacking Twilight Fortress, which stood still.

The reason why he was injured so badly was because he had to resist the opponent’s attacks every time and could not let the opponent’s power directly fall on the Fortress of Vision.

The cost would be too high.

Marquis Twilight had already passed the message to the south through extraordinary means. After reading it, the emperor summoned Brener directly without any hesitation.

The magician did not go there in person, but sent a magic scroll to the Twilight Fortress. It would be available on the same day when it was requested. Commander Harald, holding the magic scroll in his hand, once again rushed out of the Twilight Fortress in the new day of war and fought with King Behemoth.

Amidst the earth-shaking roar, Behemoth’s fangs fell. Harald slashed the beast’s fangs with his sword, and then the armor on his body withstood the blows from Behemoth King’s bone sword.

After withstanding the blow, the distance between the two sides shortened, and Harald instantly crushed the magic scroll in his hand.

“Damn…Mage.”

The sky was dotted with mottled spots of light, like moonlight shining on a lake blown by a gentle breeze, the waves sparkling and glittering like the polished scales of a giant dragon, reflecting the light.

[Forbidden Spell: Soul Dust]

Wisdom will also be covered with dust, and the soul will also decay. The power of the legendary forbidden spell makes it impossible for the Behemoth King and the Behemoth to resist, because this power itself has no lethality. It is like silence, a suppressive magic.

The light in King Behemoth’s eyes gradually faded, and the movements of his four arms became increasingly disordered. He lost his memory and wisdom, and even walking seemed to become a problem for King Behemoth.

He became weaker and even did things that were very revealing, such as rushing directly towards Harald and using his four arms to block the legendary sword of the Lionheart.

But facing such a Behemoth King, Harald did not gain much advantage, because…

The Behemoth King, who had lost his memory and reason, became very weak, but the Behemoth beast, who had lost his memory and reason, became violent at this moment, completely forgetting everything, with only crazy desire for destruction and devouring in his eyes.

Its eyes were bloodshot as it rushed towards Harald, biting off a corner of the mountain with its bloody mouth. Its six legs were running wildly, which would cause it to lose more energy, so it needed to eat more food to replenish it.

The sharp, bridge-like fangs hit Harald’s body, and the legendary Lionheart’s armor was covered with dense cracks in an instant.

Blood was flowing from all of Harald’s seven orifices. He was shocked and looked at the Behemoth that was attacking him madly and wanted to eat him. The opponent’s strength was twice as strong as before. No, more than twice!
Boom! ! !
The Behemoth ran wildly, and around it, tens of thousands of orcs were lifted up. Under its feet, its six legs trampled hundreds of thousands of orcs. As it ran wildly, countless orcs were trampled into pieces and pulp by the Behemoth before they died at the hands of human weapons.

“Stop it!”

King Harald the Lionheart, who knew well how powerful the Behemoth was, opened his eyes wide and shouted towards the fortress in great fear.

Countless lights lit up in the sky. In less than three breaths, more than thirty wizard towers were suspended in the sky. Hundreds of powerful magicians floated in the sky. They chanted and released powerful magic. Countless lights illuminated the sky of Twilight Fortress and turned into strong winds, sharp blades, heavy rain, mountain torrents, thunder and fire, smashing towards the Behemoth.

But it was useless. The Behemoth, which was emitting a bloodthirsty red light, had enough energy to resist these magics, and then it crashed heavily into the Twilight Fortress.

“Roar–“

The fangs broke and the severe pain made the Behemoth wail even more crazily. The densely packed magic patterns on the surface of Twilight Fortress helped the fortress to block the impact, but every soldier of the human army in the fortress could not help but stagger, and some of them could not stand steadily.

The Behemoth climbed up again, struggling, with blood flowing from its body like a river onto the ground. After another deafening roar, it opened its bloody mouth and bit towards the Twilight Fortress.

At this moment, the originally bright sky dimmed. The Behemoth ate countless magic factors in the void, and then, in the terrified eyes of countless people, the Behemoth once again crashed into the Twilight Fortress. Boom boom boom boom –

Huge rocks flew into the sky, smashing a wizard’s tower to the point of collapse. Deep in the dust, the shadow of the Behemoth stood on the ruins of the Fortress of Gaze, roaring angrily.

A fifty-meter-wide gap appeared in the huge Twilight Fortress surrounded by mountains. The orcs rushed towards the gap frantically. Some were killed by the Behemoths, but more of them rushed towards the human army that no longer had the fortress as a bastion.

“how so.”

Harald was furious, and the magic scroll dealt with the Behemoth King, but who could have thought that it would make the Behemoth go berserk.

King Behemoth was still in a daze, but the power unleashed by the Behemoth made up for everything the orcs needed.

Pure power, the Behemoth only has power, the power to shake the earth and the mountains, which is exactly what Twilight Fortress cannot resist.

“Hahahaha! Kill all the humans and occupy their land!”

Ravens flew in the sky, clamoring hoarsely, and kept falling on the dying humans. While killing them, the ravens’ eyes were also devouring the human souls. They were absorbing the power and skills mastered by humans.

For a moment, the Twilight Fortress shrouded in dust was in chaos.

Beifeng Province, Xiangshan Plain Fortress.

“The Behemoth Court has actually defeated the fortress of the human empire.”

The Silver Moon Werewolf King was a little shocked that he succeeded so quickly.

Behemoth has already entered the human land, so there seems to be no need for him to hesitate. The Silvermoon Werewolf King has a simple idea. He actually only wants the North Wind Province. Of course, if he can break through the Flying Wing Canyon, that would naturally be the best.

He didn’t want the Silver Moon Court to suffer too much loss, otherwise it would not be able to launch attacks on humans for many years. By nibbling away and occupying human land bit by bit, werewolves would one day become the rulers of the world.

But these are all problems for the future. The most important thing now is——

“attack!!!”

Ouch——

The geographical environment of the Beifeng Province is really very favorable, if we ignore the cold brought by the wind and snow in the north. The entire Beifeng Province can only be attacked by the enemy from one direction in the north, and in this direction, the Xiangshan Plain will almost be the only option.

With only this one road, the fortress standing on the Xiangshan Plain will naturally bear more pressure.

Lord Matteo was one of those who couldn’t even sleep under the pressure. With darker circles under his dark skin, he was patrolling on the fortress wall wearing ill-fitting lord clothes.

A noble does not look like this, because he is not a born noble, but the last time Baron Ryan came here and took back the Xiangshan Plain Fortress, he granted him the status of lord.

The nobles were reluctant to accept him into the circle, but because of Ryan, they did not deny the identity of Lord Xiangshan. Lord Matteo, who was caught between the nobles and the peasants, wanted to rely on this fortress to prove himself.

During this period of time, he also thought it through. As long as this fortress was still there, his identity as a lord would be real. Even if his generation was not considered nobles by other nobles, his descendants could be.

Therefore, he would never allow the fortress to fall, and therefore he was extremely strict in supervising the soldiers.

Ouch——

In the distance, a wolf howl appeared in Matteo’s ears. He looked to the north of the fortress. Such wolf howls could be heard every day and every hour. He didn’t know whether it was the werewolves’ anger at the disadvantages of the war, or the werewolves’ grief over the deaths of their tribesmen.

But the next moment, more and more, more and more frequent, and louder and louder wolf howls echoed over the Xiangshan Plain, and Matteo’s face changed.

It’s different, different from before, completely different!
He became a noble because of this fortress and the war, and he knew the significance of it very well.

“Werewolf, werewolf attacks!!!”

He shouted loudly, ran to the alarm bell, and knocked on the bronze bell frantically. The harsh sound woke up the man who was still immersed in the warm bed at dawn.

“Werewolves, countless werewolves are attacking!!!”

On the city wall, soldiers were shouting and looking terrified. They had experienced many wars here, but none of them was like what they were seeing now. On the north side of the fortress, there were no extra orcs. They were so densely packed that as far as the eye could see, there were endless ferocious werewolves.

“Why are there so many werewolves?”

Not only the soldiers, but also the nobles were shocked. Viscount Landa looked outside and had never seen so many werewolves before.

“Could it be that… the Frozen Territory has been lost, so the werewolves came here?”

He asked, and Lord Hora next to him thought about it and shook his head.

“Even if the Frozen Territory is lost, Baron Ryan will not die, but there is no news yet.”

“So – these werewolves were here originally, but they have never appeared before.”

Viscount Landa’s face turned pale as he watched those hideous-looking werewolves covered in weapons turning into vicious wolves and running wildly across the land, rushing towards the fortress like a torrent.

In the north of the fortress, the Silver Moon Werewolf King roared bloodthirstily at the people around him. There were many orcs around him, such as wild boar orcs, fox orcs, cat people…

“You are a bunch of trash. You will be easily killed on the battlefield. It is better for you to stay here.”

The Silvermoon Werewolf King is much smarter than Weiss, the leader of the Garg clan. He knows very well that the appearance of these orcs on the battlefield will be of negative help to the war.

Orcs will die and collapse, but such death and collapse will affect the combat effectiveness of other orcs.

Standing next to the Werewolf King, the gray-haired werewolf looked at the Werewolf King.

“Your Majesty, won’t you take action?”

“I have no role in this war.”

The Werewolf King licked his paws and laughed.

“What do you think I don’t know? Humans’ favorite thing to do is to achieve balance. They would send a legend as powerful as me to this battlefield just to prevent me from slaughtering their soldiers.”

“But I don’t even need to fight. The powerful werewolf clan can overwhelm the human army and kill his soldiers.”

“Now, it’s my turn to threaten him. He must be very angry seeing his fortress being breached but unable to do anything.”

Hati, the Silver Moon Werewolf King, did not take action since the first day, which meant that he would not take action again.

“How about… I’ll go test him. If he’s not strong enough, you can kill him.”

The werewolf next to him suggested, he was eager to try, what werewolf is not bloodthirsty and does not know how to fight? The king could endure it, but he could not.

“Yeah, that’s okay.”

Hati nodded. Indeed, what if humans are not strong enough?

Inside the fortress, countless werewolves outside had already approached the fortress. What was shocking was that these werewolves that had turned into wolf beasts turned back into werewolves the moment they approached the city wall. Strong werewolves stood on the ground, and the werewolves behind them stepped on them. In this way, seven or eight werewolves formed a bridge and clung tightly to the fortress wall.

The werewolves were already agile, and the wolves running behind them used their limbs to run upwards using the werewolf bridge, and suddenly jumped up by taking advantage of the back of a key werewolf.

The wolf beasts leaped out and jumped onto the wall of the fortress. At this moment, they turned into tall wolves again, looking down at humans with a ferocious appearance, bringing an incredible sense of oppression to the soldiers.

Under the city wall, some of the werewolves’ ladders collapsed because the werewolves could not bear it, but the next moment more werewolves reorganized them. Some ladders remained strong and helped the wolves behind them to gain leverage, allowing them to rush up and then leap onto the human fortress.

More and more claw marks appeared on the werewolves’ bodies, and the blood stimulated their bloodthirsty desire. After all, the wolves would use their claws to grab the flesh and blood of these “ladders” while running.

The wars among wolves are always about cooperation rather than hunting alone. At this moment, the harmony of the wolves is fully demonstrated.
