The night was getting closer and closer, and a ray of sunlight slanted on the skull, and the white skull seemed to be tinged with blood.
Yes, skeleton.
The army came to the city, and a dense sea of skeletons was tangled in front of the city wall. It was a spectacle that would scare ordinary people even if they took a second look.
Mai Shiyu had never been to the front line and had never seen the opposing army. It was difficult to estimate the number of people in the sea. After scanning it, he thought: Is there ten thousand? It should not be tens of thousands.
The quality of the skeletons varies greatly, and it is difficult to estimate. Some have complete limbs, while others are in dilapidated condition. The queue can barely be said to be neat, and among them there are huge ferocious beasts emitting black smoke that suppress the formation and obscure the team. It is really difficult to count.
.But the estimate is about ten thousand to twenty thousand.
Although it was so spectacular, Mai Shiyu actually breathed a sigh of relief - the number was smaller than she had imagined.
At the beginning, tens of thousands of people were buried in the ancient battlefield at one time. If you put together several mass graves, you might be able to collect 100,000 people, but there were not that many enemies who attacked.
I am afraid that what really limits the number of skeleton armies is not the stock of corpses, but the ability of the Death Charm or the Necromancer.
The Necromancer is not a popular commodity. Back then, it was a small minority within the Wei Lingguan system. Now that they have been hunted down for so many years, there are not many powerful Necromancers left. Maybe there is only one in front of us.
One spiritual organ can activate tens of thousands of skeletons, which is already very powerful. This person's strength is probably not inferior to that of a swordsman.
But from another perspective, since we are fighting for quantity, the quality will not be high. This is a common rule in the world. If there are so many skeletons, all of them have knights, no, even if they have the strength of a warrior, they are truly comparable to an elite army.
, then the Necromancer is no longer a swordsman, he is probably stronger than the swordsman, chasing the swordsman.
However, the upper limit of the spirit officer is not that high. The spiritual power of the spirit officer can only match the standard Gang Qi, and cannot match the quality of the sword element. Therefore, the ability has its limit. If divided into tens of thousands, these skeletons may only have the role of cannon fodder.
That’s all.
Mai Shiyu glanced at the skeletons in the row in front of him, and then fixed his gaze on a few of the skeletons that were intact, unusually tall, and seemed to have the power to lead the army. He made a mental evaluation and raised his head again.
Behind the army of skeletons, in the bright morning light, several huge black shadows stood like mountains. They were ferocious beasts. Each one was surrounded by black energy. It was almost impossible to tell what kind of beast it was, and only vaguely various kinds of beasts could be seen.
Sharp fangs, sharp claws, and an ugly long mouth.
"Those general skeletons look powerful, but the power attached to them is limited, and I'm afraid they are nothing more than a cover-up. What you really need to pay attention to are those ferocious beasts. Do you see how much yin energy is wrapped around their bodies? They are not only polluted, but also specially blessed.
That’s right. Behind the Necromancer, there is at least one powerful Beast Spirit Officer.”
Mai Shiyu observed the battlefield and told Jiang Shenyi his judgment.
"You see, the first wave of battle must be these ordinary skeletons. Just like those barbarian thugs driving the captured people ants to attack the city, they are just consuming our reserves. If you waste those big moves on them, you will be successful.
It’s a plan.”
Jiang Shenyi nodded. Mai Shiyu was a dabbler. Is he just a stick, or should he listen to Mai Shiyu's instructions. Hearing this, he said thoughtfully: "It makes sense... but ants attack the city? These skeletons can do such a difficult task."
Action? They don’t seem to have any ropes or ladders, so wouldn’t they get stuck under the city? Or are they planning to knock down the city wall with their weight?”
Mai Shiyu was confused for a moment, but then she reacted and said: "Those skeletons may have come to step on the trap. You must know that our battle is not an ordinary war, but a battle involving swordsmen, spiritual officers, and talisman sword masters.
We may set up many obstacles under the city, such as your Thunder Talisman and my Luohong Formation. If they step on it, won’t it be triggered? As long as we step on a few rounds of traps, our home field advantage can be eliminated, and these cannon fodder will
It’s not a bad death.”
Having said this, Mai Shiyu sneered a few times and said: "It's a good idea. My Falling Red Killing Array can only be activated if I trigger it. What's the use of an ordinary skeleton stepping on it? The same goes for your Thunder Talisman, right?"
Jiang Shenyi said: "No. It is passively triggered. It will explode as soon as you step on it."
Mai Shiyu:......
"Forget it, it's better to get the head start."
Seeing the skeleton army approaching the formation, and about to step into Jiang Shenyi's talisman formation, the team suddenly stopped.
When he said stop, the entire team stopped. Although the queue was not neat, the skeleton army was able to order and prohibit, and it was comparable to the elite iron army.
The team separated, and an ugly giant beast crawled out. The giant beast had a shell on its back and was covered in gray and greasy. Its two soft tentacles dragged the ground, like a snail. It was only much longer than an ordinary snail.
A mouthful of fangs.
Mai Shiyu didn't bother to laugh, "The turtles now only have snails. Do you think the ones with shells are turtles?" Instead, he stared at the person on the snail's back.
There were two people sitting on the back of the snail, one sitting and one standing. The one sitting was an old man with white hair and beard, and the one standing was an extremely beautiful woman. Her facial features seemed to have been carefully carved, without any flaws, and she was holding her arms around her.
On the old man's head, the old man had his eyes closed and seemed to have lost consciousness.
Mai Shiyu couldn't bear it any longer and shouted: "Guardian Envoy——"
"boom!"
The sudden iron fist hit the chain, causing the chain to vibrate and almost collapse.
not good!
Is it the attack of the demon in the empty demon cave?!
Tang Zhao was stunned and immediately activated the talisman and tightened the chain.
The original seven chains were thickened at the same time, and seven more chains were drilled out of the jade and wrapped around the space again. The blockade immediately became tighter, as if the gaps had been sealed again with sealing strips.
Bang-bang!
His fist hit the chain. Although the chain still vibrated, it was no longer as dangerous as before.
"Come on, keep fighting. It's not enough. Let me see how many chains you can shake?"
There are 7,749 chains hidden in this star stone, which can be released together or seven by seven. After releasing a total of 7,749 star stones, they will be completely scrapped.
Although this magic circle is non-renewable, because it is a gift, it is considered free. Tang Zhao does not cherish it so much. He is waving chains one by one. If the demon inside is still strong, then seven or forty-nine chains will be pressed together.
It doesn't matter if you go up.
In any case, at this critical moment, the demon must not come out.
The demon punched dozens of times, but the momentum became weaker and weaker, and then stopped.
Suddenly, two big hands came out, inserted into the gap in the chain, grabbed the links of the chain, and opened it, as if to expand the gap in the chain!
Tang Zhao raised his eyebrows. This time, he clearly saw ten fingers!
The fingers are thick, twice as thick as his hand, but the joints and nails are clearly like human hands. Moreover, the action of picking off the chain shows that the other party is violent and rational. Knowing that this action saves effort, and the fingers are also flexible, he can act like a human.
Make an action.
It's not that he's making a fuss, it's that he has only seen one demon, that dragon. The dragon-shaped demon is powerful, but I don't think it's very smart. At most, it's somewhat spiritual. In battle, it's just instinctive and reckless, no different from a cunning beast.
.
If the demon had been willing to think like a human on that day, Xing Ji and Tang Zhao might have become cold.
So, are the demons of a different species this time?
Tang Zhao thought like this, and couldn't help but look at the hands again. Sure enough, because he pulled the chain too hard, the veins on the back of his hands popped out, and the veins moved like human meridians. Looking at the details, the finger joints were thick, and there were calluses on the knuckles.
, with a slight body hair, he looks like a thick and strong man who has practiced martial arts.
A thought occurred in his mind: I have long heard that the phantom is the spiritual official of another world, and the demons are the natives of another world. Have you seen the demons? What is the name of the humanoid race in the other world, the demons?
This devil is really manic. Jiaolong was not that manic before. He only became mad after being beaten. Looking at him, he looked like there was a wolf chasing behind him and he was in a hurry to escape from the devil's cave.
However, is it okay to reach out to other worlds and just use your strength?
Tang Zhao's heart moved, and two more chains flew out and entangled the hands. The hands felt the restraint, and immediately turned back to hold it. Two more chains entangled in the opposite direction, tightening its fingers, and then entangled them.
The four chains on the wrists were tightened at the same time, and the hands were handcuffed to the chain railing.
This time, it’s really hard to move!
This was because Tang Zhao was merciful for a moment, otherwise if he tightened the grip just a little bit, it would be the same as a torture tool, and he would let the devil taste the feeling of ten fingers connected to the heart!
After fixing his hands on the chains, Tang Zhao felt a little more at ease and looked through the blurry entrance to the space, wanting to see what this demon looked like.
The exit of the space is like frosted glass. The light is distorted when it passes through. It is impossible to see the specific scenery on the opposite side. However, you can vaguely see that the demon is tall, but it is only as tall as a person. It is comparable to the space exit. The height is higher, and his hands are
He was chained to the railing and seemed to be struggling and roaring, but no sound could be heard.
With this guy's ability, he can't escape once he's locked up!
Tang Zhao confirmed that he had the situation under control, and gradually focused his attention on the outside of the city. He heard the roar gradually rising in his ears. It seemed that thousands of troops had arrived outside the city, and he took out Lord Turtle with his backhand.
"Oh... what is this?" Master Turtle first shrank his head when he saw the tug-of-war of space barriers, and said, "Where did you find the devil?"
Tang Zhao hurriedly said: "Master Gui, I have something to give you. Now there is a big enemy attacking outside the city, but I have to watch the devil's cave here without being able to separate myself. This is not possible. You take this Tongxin Jade,
We can communicate, and then you can..."
Turtle Master said in surprise: "You want to go to the front to support me and let me watch this ghost thing from behind to prevent it from coming out? Do you think too highly of me?"
Turtle Lord has many advantages, certainly not including his outstanding fighting ability. If he is left to watch this devil alone, the devil will be unable to move. If something goes wrong, Lord Turtle's life may not be enough for these two hands to break him off.
Of course Tang Zhao knew what it was worth, and said: "On the contrary, I want you to go outside the city and watch for an opportunity for me! If I stay here, I can still kill the enemy in the front!"
