Chapter 42 Counterattack 1
If the strength of the skeleton soldiers and the Nether Fire Skeleton is in terms of rank, it is barely equivalent to that of the second-level ordinary people. It has low attacks, low anti-strike ability, and only weapons derived from bones, and its speed is barely faster than that of the turtle. If there are not hundreds or thousands, an ordinary person wielding a wooden stick can defeat these bone frames. To deal with them, a fire bomb or a magic arrow is enough.
The students of Stanford may have a brilliant future, but they have been in the ivory tower for many years and obviously lack combat experience. According to the teacher's teaching of "defeating the enemy with the least mana", they used the lowest-level skills to attack the Nether Fire Skeleton, but were blocked by the skeleton soldiers without exception.
On the other hand, the adventurers of the Iron Blood Rose Adventure Group, those who rely on actual combat training and have experience in war, all chose range skills. Although they consumed a lot, each wave of attacks could kill several Nether Fire Skeletons.
The choice of the Iron Blood Rose Adventurer is correct. First, the skeleton soldiers cannot climb up anyway, and they squeezed under the low walls will also hinder the advance of hatred and ghouls. Second, the Nether Fire Skeleton's Nether Fire Bull fell on the most powerful adventurer, but it was like being hit by a fist, but the green Nether Fire from the Underworld has the attribute of directly attacking the soul. There will be no feeling when one or two hits. Once you are hit more times, even the strong soul of the adventurer will feel trembling.
There was a huge block of hatred before, and the range of the Nether Fire Skeleton was only a pitiful thirty meters. They did not cause much trouble to the defenders. However, this time, humans understood the fear that covered the entire field of vision.
The skeletons summoned by the undead wizard were covered in white, densely packed under the low wall and stretched dozens of meters away before gradually becoming sparse. Arthur's tactic of burning oil and burning the trunks slightly reduced the skeletons, and the blocking of the five hundred adventurers wiped out about one-fifth of the skeletons. However, the number of skeletons still looked more than ten thousand. The number of skeletons in the middle accounted for about three-fifths.
Under the powerful skill attack of human adventurers, a large area of skeletons under the short wall often disappears with one skill. But the Nether Fire Skeleton still stubbornly approached the Low Wall. The next moment, with combat instinct, one hundred groups of Nether Fire Skeletons entering the range, raised their bone staff and fired green Nether Fire bombs at the Adventurers on the Low Wall.
For a moment, the adventurers on the low wall felt that only monotonous white and green were left in their eyes. The white ones were skeletons and the green ones were the Nether Fire Bombs. The sinister white and green made many adventurers close their eyes.
In almost the blink of an eye, nearly ten thousand Nether Fire Bombs flew to the adventurer. Faced with the Nether Fire Bombs that closed all the dodging spaces, the unlucky guys who were targeted had no choice but to resist.
Time seemed to pause for a moment, and then dozens of adventurers standing in the first row were flooded by the Nether Fire Bomb.
"Ao!"
As if they had made an appointment, the adventurers attacked by the Nether Fire Bomb all let out a silence that was not like a human voice, and then fell to the ground with their heads in their arms. While they were wailing, their bodies were twitching constantly. A few unlucky guys even rolled down the city wall directly, and were instantly seen as a pile of minced meat by countless bone knives.
At this moment, the Stanford students who were originally despising the Iron Blood Rose Adventurer wasting their mana, changed their faces to range skills, and greeted the Nether Fire Skull with pale faces.
The huge meteorites falling from the sky, icicles with a cold air, sharp rocks protruding from the ground, and eye-shaped storms with evil auras. Various magics hit the surroundings of the Nether Fire Skeleton, causing the vast sea of white skeletons to disappear in an instant.
After several rounds of powerful magic, there were only two or three kittens left in the endless frame of bones. The result they achieved was that they killed about twenty adventurers, causing about one hundred adventurers to temporarily lose their combat power and consumed most of the mana of human adventurers with long-range attack capabilities.
When ordinary soldiers of the Demon Wolf Division dragged the adventurers who had gradually calmed down from the low wall, the main forces of the undead ghoul and hatred had also advanced to less than fifty meters away from the low wall. Behind them were all the undead wizards.
"Let Sbastian and the others come up."
Arthur, who was still standing on a low wall like a flag, said to an adventurer.
The latter nodded, jumped down from the low wall, and ran quickly towards Sebastian and others who were staying under the low wall.
The moment the undead army launched the attack, the three thousand stone ghosts that had disappeared also appeared above the Pocket Valley with the same number of ghouls.
This time, the gargoyles learned their lesson and did not try to raid humans who had already set up formations on the other side of the low wall. They threw the ghouls in an open place, and then rushed towards the human formation with more than two thousand ghouls... In this process, even though the gargoyles tried their best to dodge, they were still shot down many of them with a drag.
Arthur's formation was well-designed in the Pocket Valley, with the first row of the One Thousand Shields, the second row of the One Thousand Spears, and the third row of the One Thousand Crossbows. Sbastian and Byronger's six hundred houses will be at the end. Marinen and her Thousand Night Elfs hide in the jungle in the Pocket Valley. There is the home court of the Night Elf.
The ghoul was low in his mouth with a smelly liquid, and his limbs ran towards the humans quickly. When they approached the first row of the big shield hands, the third row of the crossbowers raised the crossbow machine in an orderly manner, pointed at the sky and pulled the trigger.
The standard crossbow machines of the human army usually fire three consecutive times. But three thousand crossbow arrows flew into the air "swooshing" and then the next moment, the crossbow arrows drew a beautiful arc, instantly covering hundreds of zombies.
Unfortunately, crossbow arrows without any elemental power are invincible weapons against ordinary monsters of the Chaos Legion, but for the Scourge Legion ghouls between the leader-level monsters and ordinary-level monsters, they are only injured and not killed. Except for a few unlucky guys who were nailed to the ground by hundreds of crossbow arrows, most of the ghouls were covered with arrows and continued to rush towards the human front.
The distance between thirty or forty meters is only a dozen seconds for the ghouls. The second wave of the crossbowman's attack shot to kill dozens of ghouls falling behind again. The ghoul in the forefront had already hit the shield wall erected by the big shield hand.
Ghouls are not a creature that is famous for their strength. The huge impact of running at high speed still causes some gaps in the human shield wall.
The combat instinct made the ghouls frantically flock to these gaps, but their attacks were still repelled. At the critical moment, the human spearmen launched a collective stab from the gap in the shield wall, and the bodies of hundreds of ghouls in the forefront immediately became ragged.
But the undead is a terrifying creature that can continue to fight as long as the soul fire is still burning. The ghouls whose body is pierced by a spear, as long as their claws can still move, will firmly grasp the spears that are stabbed without giving humans a chance to recover. Then, humans are completely defeated in the battle with the ghoul's power.
Without the interference of the spearmen, more ghouls rushed to the shield wall, stretching out their sharp claws to pull the square shield that was almost one person tall.
At this time, the human warrior took action.
The ghouls who tried to destroy the shield wall suddenly spewed out flames more than two meters high, and in a few breaths the ghouls turned into charred corpses.
The third-level flame skill of the mage, firewall!
The turtledove and the Cameron family have very high qualities. Dozens of firewalls are connected to each other, without overlap or gaps, just like a person who made it. This perfect blow made most of the hundreds of ghouls blocking the shield wall disappear in one go.
On the other hand, about two hundred adventurers wielded various melee weapons such as big swords, scimitars, tomahawks and spears, and powerful hand-to-hand combat personnel such as barbarians and magic swordsmen flashed out from both ends of the shield wall, and patiently slaughtered ghouls bit by bit.
The rain of arrows, spear formations, firewalls and the final massacre, more than two thousand ghouls soon left.
When the first ghoul hit the shield wall, the gargoyles flying all over the sky also pounced down. The gargoyles flew to the head of a human warrior in groups, feather arrows, flying axes, javelins, and dozens of people flew to the head of a human warrior in groups, and then spit out sharp air blades, instantly scattering dozens of deep bone- visible wounds on the target's body, and they were almost out of their lives.
In the face of the collective attack of gargoyles, even the barbarians who claim to be the strongest power could not withstand it. Although the human counterattack made fewer and fewer gargoyles, the number of humans also decreased sharply in the gargoyles' aura...
Ten minutes later, humans annihilated all the undead at the cost of nearly a thousand casualties. Most of them died from gargoyles' volleys.
The fierce battle also completely exhausted the mana of the six hundred generals. Instead of sitting down to meditate, they took out various specifications of mana potions and poured them down. After doing all this, the humans who had no worries redeployed their formation under the low wall.
All the undead troops that broke into the Pocket Valley were destroyed, and the battle on the low wall also entered the most critical moment. After paying the price of thousands of ghouls and hundreds of hatreds, a large group of ghouls rushed up the low wall again and started a melee with humans.
This time is different from the previous battle on the low wall. The Turtle Dove and the Cameron family all trained together and fought together, and cooperated with each other. Even though there was not much room for playing on the low wall that was five meters wide and three hundred meters long, they still firmly blocked the attack of the ghouls.
However, Stanford students are different from Iron Blood Rose Adventurers. Stanford students play their own games on weekdays, and there is no tacit understanding at all. The Iron Blood Rose Adventurers fight together for only seven or eight months, and their opponents are still monsters, and their tacit understanding has not been cultivated. Therefore, hundreds of adventurers on the low wall fight each other and try their best to resist the zombie rushing up.
However, facing the desperate battle, neither the young Stanford student nor the Iron Blood Rose Adventure who followed Arthur at Godzilla did not wince, and still waved the weapons in his hands to kill endless ghouls or be killed by ghouls.
A magic swordsman's big sword suddenly swung his sword and slashed from the side. The next second, the heads of five or six ghouls in front of him all left their bodies and flew into the air.
The Demon Swordsman made a slash in an arc, and before he could catch his breath, several zombies rushed over and threw him down. After a few dozen seconds, there were only many broken corpses with bones left where the Demon Swordsman fell.
A barbarian had just broken a ghoul, took a breath, waved his weapon and rushed towards another ghoul. But a black feather arrow came silently and inserted it accurately into the barbarian's neck.
The vitality was quickly lost from the barbarian's body. The barbarian, who already knew his ending, looked at the north with nostalgia, and then fell down. The next moment, the barbarian's body turned into two huge skeletons.
A Templar's shield knocked a ghoul out with a wave of his shield. The scepter in his right hand waved out his head, which was about to smash the ghoul's head, but unexpectedly a black mist suddenly flew over and penetrated into his body in the shocked gaze of the Templar.
The Templar, who was in the fog, felt that his power was disappearing sharply. His face aged at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his short red hair gradually turned gray. In just a dozen seconds, the Templar became an old man in twilight, and was easily killed by the awakened ghoul.
...
“Hand it.”
