Endless battles, the huge rock castle under the intertwining blood and fire, withstood repeated attacks by the orc army.
Groups of soldiers rushed to the city wall and suffered heavy casualties in the battle with the enemy. The first city wall defense line fell several times. The main force of the orc army successfully pushed under the city wall and began to fill the moat with soil and stones. Both sides
The battle between them has entered the most brutal and brutal stage.
On the afternoon of the third day after arriving in the plane of destiny, Zhao Xi was promoted to level 15.
On the evening of the fourth day, he was promoted to level 19.
This promotion speed is definitely very fast. The 9-level promotion not only brought Zhao Xi 45 free attribute points, but also allowed him to successfully activate 9 important skills, including 2 advanced secret skills.
Unfortunately, the original set of top-quality equipment still cannot be activated.
Despite this, Zhao Xi gradually gained the confidence to kill the elite BOSS orc commander.
As the defense power of the giant rock castle continued to weaken, the orcs became more and more rampant. The orc commanders who had been hiding in the safe area at the rear gradually moved closer to the front line, and the distance became closer and closer.
But it is still impossible for Zhao Xi to go down to the city alone and take down the BOSS's head among thousands of troops. He still needs better opportunities and stronger strength.
The trouble is, this task is time-limited, and there is not much time left for Zhao Xi.
Night fell again, and piles of bonfires were lit on the city wall. Their function was to prevent sneak attacks from the Shadow Demon Leopard. This level 15 monster raised by the demon clan had assassin-like abilities and could sneak up to the city wall.
Attack and kill soldiers from above.
After a large number of ordinary orc warriors were used as cannon fodder some time ago, more and more advanced warcraft and monsters began to appear, making the defense task of the giant rock castle more and more difficult.
Zhao Xi sat on the corpse of a forest goblin, with his back against the wall, slowly biting into the dry and hard pieces of meat in his hands. This was his dinner today, there was only one piece and no more.
The giant rock castle is crowded with a large population. Daily food consumption is not trivial. Due to the recent siege by the Orc Legion, support from the rear has basically been cut off.
Although there is still food in the castle, it is impossible to open it to eat to sustain the consumption of such a large population.
Four scarred soldiers sat around him, their faces full of fatigue.
Lu Xiong died in the battle, and David also died in the battle. Zhao Xi is now the captain of the first team of the 9th Squadron, but in just two or three days, all the veterans in the first team have died in the battle, and they were just added in the afternoon
These are the only four recruits left.
After swallowing the dried meat in his mouth, Zhao Xi clapped his hands, and then cast a holy healing spell on the soldier closest to him - his holy power had just been restored a lot.
This soldier was the most seriously injured. His entire right arm could not move. Because he had not received timely treatment, the wound was still bleeding and his face looked very pale.
The number of priests in the Temple of Light in the Stone Castle is very small, and the holy power obtained through prayer is also limited. It cannot be wasted on ordinary recruits. At most, the doctors in the army can give them some medicine and straps.
But for Zhao Xi, they are NPCs, and they are comrades who can fight side by side, so even when his own holy power is not enough, he tries to save as much as possible to help with treatment.
The fact that the four recruits have persisted until now is inseparable from his treatment.
What Zhao Xi received in return was that several times he was in danger, but these recruits rescued him desperately.
All the recruits are basically residents of the city, and their equipment is quite regular. But the level is very low. In a head-on confrontation, it often takes two or three to defeat an orc warrior, but the victory is through unity and bravery.
Escape from battle is rare.
"Thank you, sir!"
The soldier said gratefully, sitting down and bowing to him.
Zhao Xi's expression suddenly changed, and he suddenly grabbed the spear beside him and threw it towards the opponent with all his strength!
This kind of spear gun is a standard weapon in the military. It is specially used by samurai warriors to throw it to kill enemies. It is not long in size, but the gun head is made of fine iron casting and grinding. Therefore, it is very sharp.
call!
The short gun roared through the air, and the recruits who had just been grateful to Zhao Xi were suddenly frightened and panicked. They were so stunned that they had no time to make any dodge action.
But the spear gun did not hit him. Instead, it passed by his shoulder and hit a black shadow that had just flashed just five or six steps behind him!
-35!
roar!
The black shadow suddenly let out a painful howl, and it turned out to be a black magic leopard!
Shadow Demon Leopard!
A large number of war pets raised by the demon clan, level 15 monsters, and stalkers of the night.
No one noticed just now that the Shadow Demon Leopard actually sneaked onto the city wall. Fortunately, Zhao Xi discovered it in time, otherwise some of the new recruits would be in trouble!
The Shadow Demon Leopard was quite brave. After taking Zhao Xi's shot, it not only did not run away, but turned around and roared towards the nearest soldier, opening its bloody mouth at the same time.
But at this time, Zhao Xi had already grabbed the weapon and jumped up. Without thinking, he slashed out with his sword in the air, releasing a streak of sword light that was as sharp as a sword. In an instant, he passed a dozen steps away and accurately struck the shadow demon.
On the leopard!
Holy Power Judgment!
This is the strongest skill that Zhao Xi currently possesses. The Shadow Demon Leopard was hit in the lower back by the sword light, and immediately screamed and spun away, causing a huge damage figure to float up.
-105!
The four recruits jumped up one after another, holding weapons and preparing to attack.
Zhao Xi shouted in a deep voice: "Everyone, get out of the way and let me come!"
The so-called trapped beast still fights, these recruits who are only level 4 or 5 now are no match for the level 15 Shadow Demon Leopard. Even if they can win, they will have to pay a heavy price.
He directly activated the running skill and rushed between the two recruits like a whirlwind. He rushed in front of the Shadow Demon Leopard in a breath, swung his sword and slashed down hard!
The Shadow Demon Leopard had just rolled and got up, turned around and wanted to bite Zhao Xi, but Zhao Xi's sword slashed hard on the neck, and the skin and flesh immediately tore open and blood burst out.
-68!
-77!
A double whammy!
This move was used so hard that the Shadow Demon Leopard was finally afraid of being killed and did not dare to try to fight back. He quickly jumped forward and then jumped high, trying to jump directly from the city wall back to the outside.
Zhao Xi knew that this beast could swim and could escape by jumping into the moat. How could he helplessly watch the experience he gained slip away? He suddenly raised his left hand, opened his five fingers, and clawed at the Shadow Demon Leopard!
A translucent giant palm then appeared out of thin air, catching the Shadow Demon Leopard firmly!
Grip of great power!
Grip of Giant Power (Elementary), combat skill, consumes 10 points of holy power, captures any target within 10 meters, and pulls it in front of you. The target level cannot be higher than the character level. It is invalid for players and BOSS!
This special skill was rarely used by Zhao Xi in the past, because he always jumped up levels to fight monsters and bosses, or fought players, which did not meet the requirements for the use of the Grasp of Power.
But this does not mean that this skill is useless. Now it is just right for dealing with Shadow Demon Leopard.
Bang!
The Shadow Demon Leopard was directly caught and fell back to the ground. Zhao Xi took the opportunity to rush up and add another strike with his sword, and immediately chopped it to the ground. After a few struggles, there was no movement.
System prompt: Successfully kill the Shadow Demon Leopard, mission experience value +150!
The extremely familiar upgraded light appeared at Zhao Xi's feet again, making him stunned.
Upgraded? Level 20!
He had been fighting all the time before, and he really didn't notice that he had accumulated almost enough mission experience.
This can be considered a little surprise!
Zhao Xi laughed and invested all 5 free attribute points in physical fitness to increase HP.
He can't afford to die in this mission. If he dies once, he will have to start over.
So which skill should be activated?
Zhao Xi opened the attribute panel and scanned the skill bar. There were very few skills left that could be activated.
Suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, he jumped over the skill bar, aimed at the equipment bar, and selected the main weapon option!
