One thing to say, in the current game stage, the acceptance of low-level NPCs for various "supernatural" anomalies is quite low~
Unlike the people in the real world who have been bombarded by all kinds of fantasy movies and TV dramas, in the game world, let alone those ignorant people who don’t know what entertainment and mystery are, even regular soldiers in the army will not be affected by their knowledge.
, limited by his vision and general environment, he is also full of fear and fear for most supernatural phenomena including magic.
And this kind of cognitive shortcoming often becomes the opponent's first weakness when facing enemies such as the undead and demons, such as various types of [Horror Technique], [Horror Hallucination], [Nightmare Technique] and other deceptive abilities.
It can be said that spells are completely developed for races such as humans.
When facing the human army, the necromancers did not hesitate to devise various designs, just to make more human soldiers see that their comrades who were fighting side by side with them one moment would not only die in battle the next moment, but also become ruthless.
The tearless immortal monsters immediately turned their weapons to attack the weak soldiers who were still shouting their names in terror, begging them not to do anything...
In addition to the back-and-forth exchange of combat effectiveness, this situation of fratricide and comrades trying to kill has always been the best way to destroy the fighting spirit of soldiers!!
The necromancers in the village have laid a shady curtain and laid an ambush in order to give any human army that dares to knock on the door a hard blow~
While hurting the human army, it also bought more time for themselves to hold on. After all, the magic transmission from the rear showed that Diya's reinforcements should not be far away from them...
I originally thought it would be fine if I just persisted for a few more days~
Unexpectedly, in just this moment, Liu Yifei, Cheng Yaojin, would be "bumped" in...
Liu Yifei, Xiao Jiujiu of the Necromancers, was very clear from the beginning. It can be said that he had no intention of following the other party. Even if he had to go deep alone and take a little risk, Liu Yifei would not push the soldiers to the extreme disadvantage for them.
in a situation!
And just this little bit of bravery by someone pushed the last two semi-necromancers in the village to the edge of the cliff of life and death. Although the elites in the village were still there, they were just like the cannon fodder outside the village. Due to the previous
The "malicious temptation" of a certain little giant caused the formation to be scattered, and even the more powerful undead people floated out to hunt and kill them~
As for the necromancers themselves, let alone the disabled half. Even the two who seemed to be intact had to endure the aftermath of the turbulent magic flow when the dark sky was forcibly broken by external forces...
Fortunately, necromancers are different from human mages. At least every "vitality" belongs to Xiao Qiang. Otherwise, how would they have the strength to chase someone all the way and bombard them like before?
It's a pity that the evil spirit was released a little bit, but it failed to keep the culprit behind... What's even worse is that a lot of magic power was consumed, which is equivalent to breaking the most critical life-saving trump card of the caster...
However, facing the massive attack by Morrisgues's men, the undead party that was defending the village seemed particularly powerless!
Scattered skeletons and corpses outside the village rushed forward one by one, and in the end they were just reduced to the experience dumplings of the front-line soldiers who were familiar with the battlefield. And when the large number of undead troops chasing after Liu Yifei received new orders and turned back, they did not even dare to
Riggs has prepared "gifts" waiting for them——
"Get ready~~~release!!"
The orders under the influence of [Phantom Sound Technique] were extremely clear. As Morrisgues's order was issued, a dense crossbow arrow flew out from behind the Karava army formation... Well, generally speaking, crossbow arrows are not suitable for projectiles.
Yes, but it doesn’t matter if you shoot with coverage at a slightly higher angle...
But these "crossbow arrows" are not ordinary things~
Do you still remember that when Liu Yifei came to support Karava, he asked his subordinates to bring a lot of military supplies?
As mentioned before, half of them are the main ingredients for pharmaceuticals used for large-scale land purification, and the other half are specially prepared for "Jenny Radar"... Ahem~ The things prepared for Jenny have gradually been used, but in fact
There are still a lot of materials left for purification.
Although Liu Yifei is equipped with only the worst purification chemicals, in many cases they can only be used to scatter around the cemetery, or simply to "clean corpses"...
But even this level of potion actually has extra damage bonus to undead creatures!
At least it is much more obvious than the damage caused by natural sunlight~
And the attack points of these crossbow bolts are actually quite tricky! If you look carefully, you will find that most of the crossbow bolts in the air are directed towards the undead floating above the cannon fodder undead army!
Yes, undead monsters do have natural physical attack dodge and damage reduction talents... but the problem is that in the face of this overwhelming and intensive attack, so what if you can ignore 90% of them?!
Not to mention that every arrow has been soaked in low-quality purification agents...
You must know that quantitative change causing qualitative change is not just a trick that the undead can use.
Just this round of crossbow bolts flew by, not to mention the cannon fodder undead below who were affected by the fish, and even the undead in the sky "evaporated" more than a dozen!!
The undead are the real grassroots main force of the Dia undead army! Their status is even comparable to that of the swordsman army in the human army~
Although a single Necromancer may not be as strong as a Swordsman in terms of hard power, it is even much better than a Swordsman in terms of mobility, toughness, etc.
After all, the enemy in front of us is just a vanguard, lacking the hero-level combat power to overwhelm the formation. Even the undead wizard, who is the small boss, only has two and a half left... The dozens of undead gathered in the sky above the village can be said to have already been destroyed.
It was the last trump card of the undead side, but this time, due to "negligence", almost a third of it was emptied in an instant...
"Spread out and charge!! Press on!!! Don't let them continue shooting!"
The undead wizard roared, and at the same time, several black clouds shot like arrows from the village dozens of meters away, directly covering the crossbowmen phalanx at the rear of the army.
The sudden loss of vision would naturally cause a large-scale commotion. Those crossbowmen who were not psychologically prepared subconsciously wanted to rush around like headless chickens. Fortunately, the veterans in the queue still remembered the instructions before the battle, and immediately began to loudly comfort them.
Get up and try your best to control other soldiers around you so as not to cause greater chaos...
However, seemingly intentionally or unintentionally, even the monk at the front of the queue did not make any counterattack against those magic clouds.
Generally speaking, whether it is a small team adventure or an army confrontation, it is more about warriors versus warriors, spells versus spells~ In fact, there is clearly a spellcaster present, but the control spells in the team are turned a blind eye.
It is quite abnormal, and even the caster will be directly scolded by the commander.
But now it wasn't just the monks who ignored the commotion behind the team, even Morgues seemed to be blind and couldn't see the trouble the crossbowmen array was encountering.
And just after such a moment of delay, the undead army from the opposite side, which had gradually rushed back to the village and began to launch a counterattack against the human army, began a close-range charge!
The cannon fodder undead on the ground were still playing in a careless manner, stumbling and huddled together. Even some skeletons and corpses were squeezed by their comrades until they lost their arms. No one cared about weapons or anything like that~
But in mid-air, the faster running undead learned the lesson this time. Not only did they disperse into a line of skirmishers like a nest, they even activated their innate ability [Lingyin], like a flash.
The flashing ghost shadow...oh, no, it should be said that it turned into those terrifying invisible "ghost shadows" in rural legends and "flashed" towards the back line of the human army——
The difficult group of spearmen is not a piece of cake that the undead are willing to chew on. Even the necromancers will not be willing to exchange their elite undead for human spearmen... even if one undead can be exchanged.
The ten small spearmen are also a loss in the eyes of the wizards!!
But it’s another story to say that the crossbowmen are powerless when they get close~
Not only can they instantly paralyze the enemy's powerful long-range firepower, but the key is that the crossbowmen have a longer training period than the spearmen, but their ability to fight back against the undead at close range is weak!
It really didn't work. The undead could escape the crossbowmen's weak daggers by temporarily hiding on the ground. However, a claw strike or a pass through by the undead could take away the lives of the fragile human soldiers.
...The hearty killing was so satisfying that even ghosts would be so happy that they could ascend to heaven on the spot~~
The undead roared and charged one by one, and the flickering ghosts looked ferocious and terrifying, almost scarier than the "ghosts" in children's bedtime stories!
However, before they could stretch out their claws on the humans who were so close, a dozen magic arrows were suddenly shot out from behind the crossbowmen shrouded in black clouds!!
[Magic Arrow] is only the lowest formal attack spell at level one. Even spellcasters with a little skill will try to incorporate more elemental power into magic arrows to make them more suitable for their own magic characteristics, or
It is a more powerful [Elemental Arrow].
So generally speaking, [Magic Arrow] can only be regarded as the standard attack equipment of "apprentice" level spell casters. Senior spell casters with a little bit of status have long disdained to use this kind of gadget to bluff people...
However, for "some" people, [Magic Arrow] also has its unparalleled superiority - namely, the extremely fast spell casting rhythm... and when the magic power is filled, it can even achieve the terrifying attack of "thinking until the arrow comes out"
frequency!
It's a pity that Jenny is such a powerful witch full of magical power!!
Right now, it was Jenny, who had been hiding in the crossbowmen group since the war started, who launched the most powerful counterattack against the enemy!
In fact, from the beginning, Jenny had planned to take the initiative to break the enemy's dark sky, because the general unspoken rules of the battlefield were like this, spell caster vs. spell caster...
Although she is not completely affiliated with the human side's army at the moment, Jenny feels that she is undoubtedly the main force of magic on the human side in this battle. She leaves the enemy's magic barrier untouched, but allows Geralt to do that.
It is somewhat unreasonable for an "important person" to take the risk to break in...
But what makes Jenny even more depressed is that she had previously agreed with Geralt on the current "primary targets" - those undead souls that are extremely dangerous to ordinary soldiers!
Both Liu Yifei and Jenny actually expected that the enemy would definitely try to surprise their own crossbowmen's rear formation. After all, with such outstanding lethality, as long as the opponent did not want to sit still and wait for death, they would have no choice but to attack the rear formation.
The decision not to make.
The agreement between Liu Yifei and Jenny was that Jenny would wait until the most certain moment to inflict heavy losses on the enemy's elite main force...
The dozen [magic arrows] that burst out in a wave were just the first round of blows~
In the hands of Jenny, who has huge magic power, [Magic Arrows] seemed to be free of charge, and she fired more than fifty [Magic Arrows] in four rounds in a row!!
This is almost a "magic arrow storm"~
Almost every one of the roaring undead that rushed forward was attacked by more than two magic arrows. In addition to her huge reserves of magic power, Jenny was also quite good at controlling the subtleties of magic power.
Generally speaking, the elemental mages of Brakada are the ones who have the best control over the details of magic. However, Jenny is worthy of the name of "Witch General". This move is not to mention the undead on the opposite side.
Even Morrisguess, who was not far away, was so frightened that he fell off his horse...
By the way, is this the strength of what Geralt called the “exotic general on the continent of Enroth”???
In Morrisgues's opinion, there seem to be very few "generals" in Erathia who can do this...
Jenny's outburst is really extreme and deadly!
More than half of the undead who had just experienced a round of heavy losses were killed this time. It can almost be said that the last bit of wealth in the undead village on site was wiped out~
When the necromancers in the village saw this scene, they couldn't help but roar.
But the problem is that no matter how anxious you are now, you can't save the undead spirits that have disappeared in the air. You can only muster up the last magic power and send each offensive undead spell to the outside of the village for free... even
There are two bloody electric rays heading straight towards the [Monk] who is also the caster in their eyes!
That is a weakened version of [Death Ripple], or a second-level single-target spell [Finger of Death]. The effect is to directly hit the target's soul with terrifying undead death energy and magic power, and there is a high probability of directly causing the target's soul to be destroyed.
melt……
However, the monk is not a freeloader. Before the war, Liu Yifei had carefully warned him that he stood in the front row just to serve as a "light" to attract the other party's attention...
But what should be noted here is that letting the [Monk] come to the front row to attract firepower is not just to protect the relatively "cheaper" big-headed soldiers around him.
Just as the necromancers roared and vented their anger at the human army, they did not notice that on the other side of the village behind them, a shameless man who had just been driven away not long ago quietly touched the ground again.
