The five hundred and seventieth chapters of the most outstanding people in the Mesozoic
"Gase the oil!"
Taking advantage of the hundreds of skeletons blocked by arrow towers at the bottom of the city, the human soldiers on top of the city immediately smashed a bucket of pungent kerosene and wooden barrels down on the top of the city, and threw down torches at the same time.
"boom!"
The oil barrel fell from the top of the city, which was more than ten meters high, and immediately fell into pieces. A large amount of viscous fire oil also splashed out, covering an area of more than ten meters. When it encountered the fire source, it immediately exploded and swept away hundreds of skeleton warriors.
, they were all burned to ashes in a matter of seconds. As a result, even the Death Priest could no longer summon new death puppets from these useless ashes.
Seeing that more than half of the first wave of 300 undead warriors were killed or wounded in an instant, the skeleton sniper who was watching the battle seemed indifferent. He just ordered the remaining 100 skeletons to continue to move up the city and attack the "Vigil Fort". At the same time, there were 500 more skeletons.
Skeletons were dispatched to follow up and support.
"Teacher, the undead's offensive was so fierce. It was a hard fight from the beginning. It's a pity that there are no lichs to suppress the defenders in the city. Even if there are ten times more skeletons, it will just add fuel to the fire." Julian watched the battle, half excited.
Said half contemptuously.
In response, the old Marquis just nodded but made no comment. This was because Iserlohn still did not believe that the Death Preacher would make such a low-level mistake to discredit himself.
At this moment, the skeleton sniper in front of the "Vigil Fort" suddenly took a step forward, and the black smoke swirling around him suddenly roared up. When he looked again, he saw the undead Ji Dao.
The arm bone of an outstretched arm suddenly deformed and turned into a huge bow, almost as high as the sniper himself. Then, black threads were inexplicably drawn out of the black air swirling around, twisting into a virtual shape.
A solid strand is attached to a bone arm to transform into a bow body, which becomes a bowstring.
At the same time, behind the sniper, two hundred skeleton warriors stood up and lined up in two rows. Each skeleton also had an arm bone as a bow and a weird wire as a string, which was taken out from the fur backpack on the back.
A bone arrow was attached, the bow was bent and the string was drawn.
"What!? Skeleton Archer!?"
This is an unheard-of new undead troop. Not only is it the first time for the four human temples to see it, but even Moriarty has never found similar information records in the alliance's archives.
"These skeletons must be new trump cards secretly cultivated by the Holy Spirit Temple, but they were brought to Dawn Fortress by Jie Xiu, replacing the traditional Lich as the main body of the attack."
After the "Wolf-Headed Army", he saw two hundred new skeleton archers today. Moriarty couldn't help but sigh inwardly at the Holy Spirit Temple family's great cause and many methods. And every hidden card played was enough to make De
Jia and even the whole continent were shocked.
Of course, the most shocked person at this moment was none other than Julian, who was even slapped in the face. He couldn't help but blush.
"Julian, carefully observe the offensive and defensive characteristics and shooting patterns of these skeleton archers, and record them. Then send the information back to the capital as quickly as possible!"
The old Marquis didn't care at all about the student's secret shame, and just said in a deep voice.
The emergence of a new undead combat unit, especially the long-range unit, is not only a problem for Dawn Fortress, but also a threat to the entire human kingdom. It must be studied as soon as possible and a corresponding combat strategy must be formulated.
"is teacher!"
"Prepare!"
At the same time, the momentum was finally overflowing. The skeleton sniper slowly stretched out his right hand, held it on the string woven with black energy, and pulled back suddenly.
Immediately, a black bone arrow appeared out of thin air and stopped steadily between the bowstrings.
"shoot!"
The next moment, only a sharp and long roar was heard. The sniper should open his bow and fire his arrow first.
Like a meteor, the black bone arrow drew a straight line like ink in the air, and instantly hit the middle of an arrow tower.
"Crack!"
As if being hit by a heavy battering ram, the arrow tower immediately shook violently, and a large hole as wide as a bowl appeared in the center of the tower. Several human archers inside were killed directly because they stood along the trajectory.
But what's more serious is that after such a blow, there are cracks like spider webs on the surface of the tower, which has affected the stability of the building structure. If it is hit several times in the same way, the arrow tower may collapse on the spot.
Following this terrifying arrow, the two hundred skeleton archers at the back also fired arrows collectively. Raining bone arrows immediately filled the sky, following a towering arc and pouring down on the numerous human defenders on the city wall. What was even more terrifying was that
, the tips of these arrows also have a trace of the power of death, carrying the magical effects of decay, paralysis, pain, or poison. That is the magical effect that the Death Priests add to the skeleton archers, which makes the bones instantly
The attack power of arrows has more than doubled.
When the rain of arrows fell, there were immediately a large number of casualties on the "Vigil Fort". In particular, humans did not expect that the undead had other long-range combat units besides lich, and did not make targeted defenses. In addition, bone arrows combined with the death spell are really sharp, so
In one encounter, hundreds of soldiers were shot and killed. A large number of other soldiers were wounded and fell to the ground, wailing because their flesh was rapidly rotting or in abnormal pain.
For a time, the city walls of the "Vigil Fort" were in chaos, and order was lost.
Taking this opportunity, a large number of skeleton warriors rushed to the bottom of the city safely and immediately began to climb up. The sharp finger bones were also very suitable for digging into the concave and convex gaps on the city wall, straight up. Only half a minute later, the first skeleton warrior had already
Standing on the top of the "Vigil Fort".
"Kick them off!"
After clearing the wounded aside, the newly reinforced human sergeants, led by several mid-level warriors, immediately launched a counterattack against the undead that were coming up one after another, in an attempt to quickly fill the loopholes and restore the integrity of the front.
At the same time, several divine crossbowmen in the arrow tower also aimed at some powerful undead among the skeletons and made focused snipers.
"shoot!"
At this time, a new wave of arrows rained down outside the city, completely ignoring the mixture of humans and undead enemies, and just covering the entire area ruthlessly.
Immediately, dozens more human defenders were bombarded with indiscriminate bone arrows and killed on the spot.
What's even more frightening is that the skeleton sniper once again directed a black bone arrow, aimed at the damaged arrow tower, and fired out with one arrow.
"glory!"
The next second, a golden ray of light lit up, instantly forming a huge flail that swept across and hit the bone arrow.
"boom!"
There was an ear-splitting explosion, the bone arrow was completely shattered, and most of one of the three spiked hammer balls of the golden flail was destroyed.
At this time, a straight figure appeared in the air in front of the flail, stretched out his hand and made a move. The flail flew into his palm. Then another golden light swept across, and the damaged hammer ball was restored to its entirety.
That person is Baikal, the "Light of Glory" of the fourteenth-level human temple.
As if forced by the momentum of a powerful enemy, the heavy black smoke in front of the skeleton sniper suddenly rose up, and then spread quickly, completely covering himself and a large area.
Although this black smoke is not really tight and seamless, the strong skeleton can be completely invisible in it. Even with the spiritual induction of the extreme, it can only detect the existence of a large number of undead in the black smoke, but who is the best sniper?
, but there is no way to judge.
"It turns out to be a cover-type field. This bone bow master is actually very smart."
Looking at the skeleton sniper who had disappeared, Moriarty nodded lightly.
But when the Bailie Gate in the sky saw it, they frowned. Originally, they planned to take the opportunity to stand out from the city and kill the opponent, but now it was much more difficult.
At this time, a pair of human arrow towers began to concentrate their firepower on the array of skeleton archers in the distance to suppress the shooting.
Although the human crossbows, which had the upper hand, did not have supernatural effects, their impact was not trivial, and many skeleton archers were immediately killed or injured. Immediately, the pressure of the undead on the head of the "Vigil Fort" was greatly reduced.
Taking this opportunity, the human warriors also started a second wave of counterattack, dividing and surrounding the hundreds of skeleton warriors who had already rushed up the city wall, and killed them all in the blink of an eye.
Immediately afterwards, two more barrels of kerosene fell, igniting a raging fire under the castle, blocking the subsequent undead army.
"It's a pity that Bailiemen couldn't kill the bone bow master immediately. For city defense, such a strong man of level 13 is more threatening than an ordinary level 14." Seeing that the undead temporarily slowed down its offensive,
Withdrawing his troops, Julian couldn't help but said with a little regret.
"There is nothing wrong in the handling of the Bailie Gate. We don't know where the Death Preacher is hiding, and if we attack rashly, we will only fall into a trap." Iserlohn shook his head, looking serious.
The first round of offensive and defensive battles seemed to end in victory for the human side. However, in just over ten minutes of fighting, at least two hundred people in the "Vigil Fort" were injured or injured. This accounted for 20% of the total number of defenders. Such a rate of casualties
This is unbearable for any general. If there are a few more "victories" like this, I'm afraid the Night's Watch will die.
Looking at the undead, although the number of skeleton warriors lost was more than twice that of the defenders, it was only insignificant. Not to mention that there was a steady stream of undead in the black forest coming to join the battle, as long as time allowed. This loss
It will be replenished soon.
Therefore, comparing the two, in terms of grand strategy, human beings can barely maintain a tie or even lose a round. And all of this is "attributable" to the newly emerged undead unit-skeleton archers.
"We must get rid of those two hundred skeleton archers, otherwise the undead priests will pose too great a threat to us!" The old Marquis pondered for a moment and spoke resolutely.
"Teacher, should I just take the 'Thunder' and make a sudden attack, and cooperate with Bailiemen and Yingsi Kesai to knock out those archers?" Seeing this, Julian immediately called for battle.
"It's still too early." The old Marquis hesitated for a moment and shook his head: "We must wait for the 'Vigil Fort' before trying to attract the attention of the undead, especially the one thousand zombie corps. Otherwise, no matter how elite the 'Thunder' is,
, it is also difficult to break through the double blockade set up by the undead soldiers and death knights."
"...Yes, teacher." Although he was a little reluctant, Julian chose to obey.
After waiting for about ten minutes, the fire in front of the "Vigil Fort" was finally extinguished, and the skeleton army once again divided into several hundred-man teams and began a new round of attack on the city.
It still started with a collective exchange of fire between human arrow towers and skeleton archers, but this time the undead warlock group not only propped up a temporary divine magic light film for long-range combat units, which can weaken the lethality of human crossbows, but also provided a barrier for skeleton archers.
Added new Death Power effect.
When hundreds of bone arrows roared into the sky and rowed towards the castle, not only did most of them focus on the injured human arrow tower, but the arrows were also covered with a layer of strange green flames, just like in the legend.
The fire of the underworld.
In the end, dozens of arrows hit various places on the arrow tower, but were immediately bounced away by the hard iron bricks. But what is surprising is that at those dozens of impact points, patches of green flames seemed to
It suddenly burned like a contagion. Without any fuel, extremely high temperatures appeared, burning large or small pits on the walls of the arrow tower out of thin air. And there were obvious holes in all these pits.
Traces of corrosion are destroying the stability and structure of the iron bricks bit by bit.
"Phosphorus fire?" Moriarty looked at the arrow tower that was almost covered with green fire, frowning deeply.
Phosphorus fire can be said to be one of the most vicious flames in the world. It can only be tempered from corpses. Not only does it have an extremely high temperature when ignited, it can even burn for a long time without any substance. Especially when fighting the enemy, once life is
Once the body is burned by phosphorus fire, it is almost impossible to extinguish it. Moreover, phosphorus fire will also ignite the existing phosphorus in the bones, burning the victim completely from the inside, making it difficult to prevent accidents.
Now the skeleton archers are focusing their fire with phosphorus rockets to knock down the human arrow tower with all their strength. Although burning only once will not have an immediate effect, as long as it is repeated several times, it can cause huge damage to the wall of the arrow tower.
Combined with the breaches and fissures penetrated by the skeleton sniper before, it is only a matter of time before the arrow tower collapses.
When the human defenders on the castle looked back in horror, General Skeleton also came to the bottom of the arrow tower, stretched out his left hand wearing a black leather glove, and pressed it against the wall.
Suddenly, a piece of cold air floated up, with a trace of mysterious light, and instantly spiraled around the entire arrow tower.
Within a few breaths, all the green flames and phosphorus fire were extinguished under the cold air of Xuanguang. However, the cold air always passed through the arrow tower with only half an inch, without touching the iron brick itself at all, and without any additional damage. This way
His control is nothing short of miraculous.
Seeing this, the "Vigil Fort" immediately erupted into cheers, showing their greatest respect to the Skeleton General they respected, and at the same time, their morale was greatly boosted.
"sharp!"
There are many Yakuza strongmen whose overall strength exceeds that of Insikose, and Moriarty has seen many of them. However, this is the first time he has encountered a person who can control his own power to such an extent, and it also makes him feel quite emotional.
Even admire.
And one thing is clear, when the overall strength cannot be improved immediately, being able to control every bit of strength satisfactorily and maximize it is equivalent to obtaining additional strength supplement.
From this point of view, although General Skeleton is "only" level 14, his real combat power is probably very close to that of a super strong person at level 15, and he can be said to be the "real ultimate".
"Julian, you should regard Inscorse as your goal and example. Whether it is military strategy or combat skills, he can be called the most outstanding person in the Mesozoic era of the kingdom." "Thunder Castle", Iserlohn
He also tells his students the same thing. (To be continued...)
