Because of the city's holy light defense, Zhang Wei in the city was unable to communicate with Shen Mudan through the mental link. He didn't know what Shen Mudan was doing. Instead of taking advantage of the empty defense of Laza City and leading the lurking goblins north to bypass Laza City and go to the Warcraft Forest, he chose to attack Laza City.

Zhang Wei cast the fire wall spell on the city wall to block a section of the bridge. He was trying to make Shen Mudan give up and continue with the previous plan.

However, Shen Mudan actually issued an order to attack the city. As the Warcraft horn was blown, the goblin army attacked the city.

Zhang Wei was speechless. He couldn't understand what Shen Mudan was trying to do, but he could only respond accordingly.

Marquis Laza, Centurion Chaudhry and others also rushed over at this time. Now the defenders of Laza City are all old, weak and sick, and can't stand a single blow. However, the goblin army in front of them has a unified command and clear division of labor.

The goblin magician began to chant magic and bombarded the magic shield of the city of Laza. The goblin archers, under the cover of the goblin shield axe soldiers, came to the city wall and began to suppress the human officers and soldiers on the wall with bows and arrows.

Goblin engineers were divided into groups of three, carrying long ladders and running to the moat. They placed the ladders in two sections. The ladders made of special materials looked soft and fragile, but they could float steadily on the moat. When the goblins stepped on them, the ladders did not break or become silent.

"Is there any oil?" Zhang Wei asked Centurion Chaudhry loudly. He wanted to pour oil on the moat and then ignite it with fire magic to prevent the goblins from crossing the river.

"No...if there was any, I would have used it long ago, damn it!" Centurion Chaudhry tried his best to shoot the nearest goblin with his bow and arrows, but he was alone and had little effect. As for Zhang Wei, since he was not a believer in the God of Fire, the number of fire walls could only maintain three sides at most, and it was impossible to use fire walls to block all the defense surfaces.

"Sir, evacuate. We can't hold on any longer." Centurion Chaudhry asked Count Laza to evacuate the population to other cities through the magic circle, and as the local military commander, he naturally had no way to escape.

Marquis Lazar was still a little hesitant, but when he saw the goblin engineers carrying ladders starting to cross the moat and approach the city wall, he knew that he really could not hold it. He just said take care, and then took those who could still walk and retreated from the city wall. He gave up the city of Lazar.

Alarms sounded in the city of Laza. This was the first time an evacuation alarm was sounded after decades of peace in the kingdom.

"You're not leaving?" Centurion Chaudhry looked at Zhang Wei and sneered.

Zhang Wei didn't say anything. He was still trying his best to use magic to prevent the goblins from approaching. When his magic power was running out, he switched to sniping with a bow and arrow.

"Good boy, you're a hero." Centurion Chaudhry praised Zhang Wei, which was rare.

"Okay, you are about to die, save some strength." Zhang Wei rarely argued with Centurion Chaudhry. He also knew that according to the laws of the kingdom, anyone could escape from the city except military commanders. It was a case of "the city survives and the people live, but the city dies and the people perish".

Centurion Chaudhry smiled but said nothing.

When the first goblin ladder was placed on the city wall, Zhang Wei changed his gun and pushed the ladder down with force.

However, as more and more ladders were put up, Zhang Wei and Centurion Chaudhry were no longer able to push the ladders down.

I have to say that Shen Mudan's command wisdom is higher than that of the goblin leader. The last time it was the goblin swordsmen and axemen who climbed the city wall, but this time it was the magic wolves who climbed the city wall.

In order to let the magic wolf climb up the city, Shen Mudan used a specially made ladder. The angle was just right for the magic wolf to run up in just three or two steps.

After Zhang Wei shot a demon wolf that pounced on him away, he was hit hard by another demon wolf right after. The demon wolf took Zhang Wei and flew down from the city wall.

In the air, Zhang Wei, who had lost his spear, used flash to get above the magic wolf, then took out his dagger and killed the magic wolf. Just as Zhang Wei was about to use the magic wolf's body to return to the city wall, he felt a heavy object hit his back again. Zhang Wei's mind was stunned, and then he was brought to the ground by the magic wolf that hit him.

Zhang Wei was dizzy from the fall. He shook his head, trying to sober himself up.

The demon wolf that hit Zhang Wei from behind also stood up and shook its huge head. It was obvious that the blow just now had made it a little dizzy.

The demon wolf, having regained its vision, rushed straight towards Zhang Wei, but was shot in the head by Zhang Wei with the dagger or flying sword in his hand.

After Zhang Wei killed the magic wolf in front of him, he found that some goblin cavalry had also climbed up the wall, and the first batch of magic wolves that climbed the city began to use their flexibility and elasticity to go deep into the city.

The city of Laza... has fallen.

Zhang Wei didn't know what happened to Centurion Chaudhry, but seeing that the goblins on the city wall chose to enter the city one after another, it seemed that Centurion Chaudhry was in great danger and had probably been killed.

Zhang Wei turned around and ran towards the Adventurer's Guild. When he arrived at the Adventurer's Guild, a huge fire was already burning in the guild. It seemed that the place had been abandoned and the magic circle should no longer be usable.

Zhang Wei wanted to go to the Marquis' Mansion where there was a teleportation array, but halfway through his run, he saw a fire breaking out in the Marquis' Mansion.

Well~ Regardless of anything else, at least the Marquis and the Guild President must have evacuated safely.

Unable to use the teleportation array, Zhang Wei could only continue westward. At this time, because the defensive magic array of the Marquis' Mansion was damaged by fire, Shen Mudan, who had entered the city, contacted Zhang Wei through a mental connection.

"Master, where are you going?" Shen Mudan asked Zhang Wei. She could feel that Zhang Wei was moving quickly towards the west of the city.

After hearing Shen Mudan's voice, Zhang Wei stopped and found an abandoned house and asked Shen Mudan to come find him.

After a while, Shen Mudan came to Zhang Wei.

"I need an explanation. Why did you attack Laza City?" Zhang Wei asked Shen Mudan as soon as he saw her.

Shen Mudan was stunned at first, then explained: "Master, the situation is changing all the time. I think the troops in Laza City are empty at this time. If I don't attack it, it will arouse the suspicion of the kingdom. I think there are many smart people in the kingdom, and they should guess my existence soon. Instead of being unprepared to deal with the encirclement and suppression of the kingdom by then, it is better to take the opportunity to develop my own power."

"So you mean that Laza City is your base? How confident are you that you can hold on to this place?" Zhang Wei didn't expect Shen Mudan to have such a big appetite. He was a little hesitant whether he should allow goblins like Shen Mudan to develop without limits. In such a short period of time, Shen Mudan captured the main city of the Marquisate. Although the overall threat to the kingdom was not that great, this progress was really too terrifying.

"No," Shen Mudan shook her head and said, "This place is used as a decoy. The main base is still the Warcraft Forest. The longer this place exists, the more time we can buy for the main base to develop."

Zhang Wei didn't expect Shen Mudan to use Laza City as a decoy. He took a deep breath and asked, "What scale do you want to develop to?"

Shen Mudan was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect Zhang Wei to ask this question. She thought about it and asked back: "Master, how far do you want us to develop?"

This time it was Zhang Wei's turn to remain silent.
