Chapter 65 Frozen

"It seems that using long-range projectiles to attack the enemy is not working." A border prince couldn't help but sigh when he saw his long-range troops' poor performance. However, he added: "But I want to see how they cross the river."

Indeed, it felt that the other party neither wanted to dig the river to release water nor build a floating bridge. What was the straw mat in the hands of the skeleton soldiers? Do they think that as long as a pair of straw swept across the river, they could cross the river?

Then they saw the most amazing scene in this war. Vared von Castein in the air removed his invisibility technique. He walked to the front of the moat under the gaze of the princes on the border, squatted down, stretched out his right hand and pointed gently on the surface of the moat. The huge magic power instantly acted along the fingers of his fingertips on the moat.

In the blink of an eye, the surrounding early spring scenery turned into a snow-white frost hell, and it was frozen for thousands of miles - the newly-cultivated moat was frozen into a large piece of ice again!

This is exactly the self-created magical Frost and Frost Formation that Valed used when he killed Stryg's Ghoul King. After a year, Valed, who is in the ascending period, has even more magic power. It seems that such a complex magic can be instantly emitted without chanting a spell. Its effect is amazing!

"Damn it! Shoot that bastard to death! Magician, where is the magician?!"

Seeing the moat frozen in an instant, the city was suddenly panicked. The soldiers were surprised to dislocate their chins, while the officers and generals yelled angrily. However, all this did not threaten Valed. He stood up, raised his head, and finally smiled at the soldiers and generals led by the prince on the border. Then he used the invisibility technique again and disappeared without a trace.

At the same time, the undead skeletons continued to move forward. At this moment, the soldiers led by the Border Prince finally knew what the straw mat in their hands were used for. The skeletons spread the straw mat flat on the ice to reduce friction and prevent the undead soldiers from falling while crossing the river.

It seems that the width and area of ​​the river had been calculated before. So the skeleton soldiers had no more and less straw mats in their hands, just enough to lay a two hundred meters long passage. Soon, the skeleton soldiers who had finished laying the straw mat retreated. Then they rushed over and pushed more than a dozen siege towers and concentrated the main force of all magic attack devices.

At the same time, someone pointed at the sky and shouted: "Gargoyle!" Then the head was scratched by the whistling stone monster. The city suddenly became confused again.

"Use rockets, use rockets and tinder oil to burn! Melt the ice surface and make the opponent's plan fail! Hurry!"

As the opponent's army approached, dozens of gargoyles kept hovering - diving and grabbing their heads. This way, harassing their own troops and keeping chaos on the city. Several officers roared in anger. They organized a group of elite troops, setting up super spears, raising shields, and raising their necks to guard against gargoyles. They ordered the weaker soldiers to carry tinder oil and rockets to burn the moat.

However, at this moment, the new undead army had already pushed the siege tower across the moat. It had a solid hardwood baffle and a key part of the siege tower was also wrapped in iron, which was enough to defend against those weak hunting bows and hunting crossbows. Due to the low efficiency, the soldiers led by the Prince of the Border lost.

"Damn it!" When several hired mages tried to use fireball techniques to attack the ice surface or attack the siege tower, the portable magic attack device of the undead was activated. A total of twenty attack devices opened fire in a concentrated manner. In an instant, the few hired mages and dozens of soldiers around them were knocked into coke, causing the opponent to lose all magic firepower support in a short period of time.

In this way, when the high-end combat power was seriously insufficient, the garrison was in a disadvantaged state instantly. The springboard of the siege tower with barbs was suddenly embedded in the stones of the city wall, and the tomb guards holding the enchanted black iron sword and the sturdy black iron shield also rushed up and launched a fierce attack on the city wall. For a moment, there were a lot of crying and shouting at the city wall. A large number of incomplete armored recruits were chopped over and stabbed by the sharp sword of the tomb guard.

After all, they were just some half-baked militiamen. They were okay to let them lean behind battlements and shoot arrows, smash stones, etc., but they had to fight with real swords and guns. These idiots with serious lack of training, low morale and even poor nutrition were almost at a loss.

"It's true."

Not far away, Vared while eating melon seeds while admiring the heroic posture of the elite troops guarding the tomb.

Although in a sense, the tomb guards of the undead troops have slightly inferior abilities to those of the dwarves and the elite troops of the human empire at the same level. Where they are truly powerful is the morale, discipline and training level like ordinary undeads. But it also depends on who they compare with.

It seems that compared with the elite troops of the elves and dwarves, the tomb guards are indeed slightly inferior. However, when he was tortured and killed the princes of the border to lead these insignificant armies, the elite undead gained an absolute and irrefutable advantage.

Because it was a close-range hand-to-hand battle at the city, the tomb guards abandoned their long halberds and used swords and shields to defeat a large number of enemies like chopping melons and vegetables. They were about to stand firm on the city wall. One half was in a garrison posture, and the other half jumped down from the four-meter-high city wall - and then rushed towards the city gate, preparing to open the gate of Aydhos and put more undead troops in.

"Is it already so bad? It's unimaginable."

Ak Bieber, a poor worm who had lost all his capital for more than ten years in a few months, sighed like this while leading his personal guards to block the way for the undead.

These soldiers held long-handled battle axe and wore heavy scales made by the best craftsmanship of the Prince of the Frontier. Although they were not disciplined, their morale, their courage and lethality were not inferior to any army. Especially their vitality—

When a tomb guard blocked the opponent's attack with a shield, he took the opportunity to counterattack and pierced the opponent's abdomen with a sword. When he was expecting the opponent to fall, he found that the opponent did not fall, but instead left the exposed wound and half of the intestines. As if nothing had happened, he waved the battle axe again. When the tomb guard didn't react for a while, he turned to an axe as he was in the head. Then he fought for more than ten minutes, and then died because of too much blood...

These soldiers are called immortals. They are the best soldiers under Ak Bieber. In addition to their burly physique, strength, equipment and training advantages, they will also take a large amount of special potions before the war to paralyze the impression, making these soldiers fight bravely regardless of any pain.

However, although it sounds very powerful, it is actually just a wrong way. With these things, you may be able to occupy a place in the countryside such as the Prince of the Border. However, it would be too naive to use this to fight against the undead army, which is one of the strongest forces in the old world.

After adapting to the opponent's tactics, Vared, who was associated with the impression of these soldiers, made tactical adjustments. He removed all the virtual moves, feints, and restrained attacks of the tomb guards against the enemy. At the same time, the attack parts were replaced with the neck, so that the brain could make people die suddenly.

So, after a little setback and a few soldiers were lost, the tomb guards gained the upper hand again, either pierced the opponent's head with oblique pierced, or beheaded the opponent. This did speed up the efficiency a lot... However.

However, after all, it was blocked. It was unable to move to the city gate in a short time, so the city gate was opened. At the same time, after a slight setback at the top of the city, the princes of the border immediately invested several times more troops than before and launched a counterattack with no chance. In a blink of an eye, the front line occupied by the undead became like a reef in the torrent, and was constantly beaten by crazy waves.

"The attack was frustrated...stop attack for the time being...no, it's not that bad."

Vared thought about it and shouted loudly at the vampire officer who operated a portable magic attack device on the front line: "Don't worry about your own army, launch an attack to the most densely populated areas of the enemy - the large-scale attack magic shall prevail! Anyway, the opponent is a group of ordinary humans with insufficient magic resistance!"

"I understand, leader!"

While issuing orders, Vared also manipulated the corpse witches to bless the secondary magical defense barriers for the undead soldiers fighting on the city to resist stray bullets that might hit them.

Soon, the vampire officers, as Varred's command, adjusted the magic attack devices that were busy with the large city defense crossbows on the city and hired mages to attack the bomb, turning their attack direction to the densest places of the enemy... At the same time, they were also the place where the undead entered the city and launched magic attacks.

Lightning Chain - Blast Bomb - Ice Storm - Shadow Shotball. A large amount of attack power is not very high, but magic with a very wide attack range covers the battlefield! As Vared said, human soldiers who have no magic resistance bonus and are even more unlikely to be equipped with enchanted armor to defend against magic attacks have suffered heavy casualties in an instant.

Although not many soldiers were killed directly by these magic, there were quite a few who were injured and restricted from moving. In this magic rainstorm, the undead who were blessed with barriers and equipped with enchanted black iron armor were naturally invincible. The situation quickly reversed. The tomb guards once again gained the upper hand.

"It's really hateful - mage! Are magicians dead?!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to Qidian to vote for recommendations, monthly votes, and your support is my greatest motivation.)
