“The veterans are in front, the recruits are behind!
The sword and shield bearers are in front! The spearmen are behind and hold out their guns to resist the enemy!
The shadow crossbowmen can freely shoot enemy long-range shooters, and the mage casts spells to protect the front line!
The entrance to the mine is very narrow, we can win as long as we hold on here!
Margaret! You take over the command!"
"yes!"
After Leicester determined the strategic guidelines, Margaret began to make arrangements according to the strategic guidelines.
Military orders are like mountains.
Without enough time to be surprised that their ruthless commander turned into a bright blonde beauty, the soldiers of the Noxian Black Iron Guard quickly began to move quickly under Margaret's command.
Orders were issued quickly. Although there was some commotion in the military formation due to the large number of new soldiers, they quickly found their positions under the guidance of the veterans.
The fire in the mine suddenly went out, and the unknown liquid gurgled. Every soldier clenched the weapon in his hand. They didn't even know what they were going to face.
"Attention! The enemy is a group of evil underground rats! The rats' crossbow bolts are extremely powerful! The swords may be quenched with poison! The sword and shield soldiers should use iron shields to protect their vital points! Meredith!"
The square-faced female mage quickly came to Lester's side and bowed respectfully.
"Lord Leicester."
"Do your mages have magic that can be used to illuminate for a long time and destroy enemies on a large scale?"
After taking one look at the dark mine, Meredith instantly understood what Lester meant.
"I think the 'Bone-corroding Flame' should be able to meet your requirements. After the spell is generated, as long as an enemy is contaminated with flames, it will automatically ignite itself until it turns into green bone powder. However, it takes a long time to construct the spell."
Hearing this, Lester frowned.
There is no doubt that this is a terrible black magic.
"Is it easy to clean up after the war? Will it affect the mine environment?"
"The flame will disappear after it is extinguished and will not affect the mine environment."
Lester was relieved.
"You start preparing now and cast the spell directly into the mine later."
"yes."
The female mage sat down cross-legged, muttering something in her mouth, took out a handful of dark green 'soil' from her arms, and threw it into the air with all her strength.
The magic power spurting out from the fingertips quickly spread along the green soil in the air. The light green magic flame ignited from the soil. A magic symbol engraved in the ancient Valoran language gradually formed. The obscure and complicated array appeared in the elemental world.
constructed out of thin air.
As always, he couldn't see any way out. He looked away from Meredith. After Lester arrived at the military formation, he looked calmly at the quiet mine.
The scalp-numbing 'squeaking sound' has disappeared, and the dark mine seems to have returned to its previous calm state, but no one would naively think that there is nothing in the mine now.
Both inside and outside the cave fell into an unsettling silence for a short time.
The next moment, the scream of a crossbow bolt piercing the air came from the stagnant cave without any warning.
With her eyes focused, Margaret yelled.
"Shield soldiers defend!! Keep the rest of the body down!!"
The dozens of swordsmen and shieldmen in the front row held up the iron shields on their left arms and lowered their bodies. Most of the spearmen interspersed between the swordsmen and shieldmen were in a crouching posture, and followed the swordsmen and shieldmen in front to lower their bodies.
Dozens of red-headed crossbow bolts were inserted straight into the thin iron shield. As the metal screamed, they poked their heads out from the inside of the iron shield with difficulty. They got stuck between the iron shields that were about to break.
He took a step back and was held up by the spearman behind him to prevent him from falling.
There were still a dozen spearmen and sword and shield wielders who either failed to react in time or were unlucky enough to be pierced by red arrows and fell on the spot. The extremely penetrating crossbow arrow even brought the sword and shield behind them.
The soldiers were blocked by the new iron shield.
The soldiers of the Noxian Black Iron Guard, who had never experienced such a terrifying weapon, suddenly became agitated, and many recruits had a look of fear on their faces.
"Stabilize the formation! The mage's spell is about to be completed! Those with broken iron shields will retreat and switch positions with those without injuries!"
Margaret's voice appeared on the battlefield at the right time, quickly calming down the commotion of the soldiers. The wounded and dead were pulled away by the people behind them, and the swordsmen and shieldmen in the rear were added to the front.
Although he knew from the beginning that these crossbow bolts and crossbows were terrifyingly powerful, Lester was still shocked by the scene in front of him.
If this group of rats has enough crossbow arrows, without magic, no matter how many people there are, they will not be able to stop the opponent.
This is a fundamental gap in equipment. I just don’t know how those red-skinned rats obtained such terrifying crossbows and crossbow bolts.
Ancient ruins, self-developed, or some kind of special mineral...
Perhaps he will know the answer after he completely defeats this group of underground rats.
"Water barrier!"
The mage with the black rose completed the spell, and a light blue spherical magic shield appeared in front of the sword and shield player.
"Shadow Crossbowmen obey orders! Fire arrows!"
Although he had no vision inside the mine, Epsol decided to order an attack. Being beaten passively would quickly reduce the morale of the soldiers. He understood this truth.
Dozens of crossbow arrows flew into it.
Under the counterattack of the shadow crossbowmen, many painful "squeaking" sounds were heard in the cave, which made many soldiers look much better.
Immediately afterwards, as if being angered, a second wave of red arrows shot from the cave. Under the horrified gaze of the mage, it easily penetrated the water pattern barrier and took away the lives of more than a dozen soldiers.
"Lord Leicester! These crossbow arrows have the property of destroying demons! The magic barrier does not work!"
A mage yelled at Lester.
Lester's expression remained unchanged, but his expression became more solemn.
I still have no experience, and now I can no longer think about the mine.
"Release offensive magic with all your strength!"
The mages who were preparing other defensive spells stopped the unfinished magic spells in their hands and switched to attack spells.
After the second wave of shadow crossbowmen counterattacked, all kinds of attack magic flew into the cave.
Lightning, fireballs or cold ice spikes and stones slightly illuminated the mine under the dim light of magic. Dozens of red-skinned rats standing scattered, holding crossbows, saw that something was not good, and screamed at the people on both sides.
They fled through the tunnel, but in the end only a dozen or so rats that couldn't escape were hit by magic and fell to the ground under the attack of magic elements.
"Continue the attack!"
Lester gave the order.
The mages hesitated for a moment. Although the results were not satisfactory, they still painted the spell again and consumed their own magic power.
"Squeak squeak!!!"
Under the suppressive attacks of magic and crossbow arrows, the mine began to become noisy and manic. With the red arrows flying out again, a red tide of rat infantry waved their daggers and rushed towards the entrance of the mine, glaring ferociously.
Red eyes rushed towards the sword and shield players in the front row.
