Already aware of the demonized creatures harmed by the skeleton archers, they sent out human shields such as demonized tauren, demonized hill trolls, trolls summoned by shamans, etc., and let the archers and magicians focus on taking care of the skeleton shorts.
Archers want to eliminate these nasty skeleton archers in one fell swoop, and then slowly deal with the overwhelming number of undead.
They thought well, but they didn't expect that the undead were also prepared. The elite heavy hammer skeleton warriors had been waiting for a long time. As soon as these demonized creature human shields stepped forward, they found a group of armored warriors with sledgehammers in their hands.
The undead stood in front of him and swung his hammer to smash it.
The demonized creatures are not undead, they also feel pain. Facing these elites, the unorganized human shields of the demonized creatures are retreating steadily, unable to resist the damage at all. Well, the role of the human shield is finally fulfilled.
At least they managed to keep the hatred at bay.
Not only did the elite Heavy Hammer Skeleton Warriors set their sights on them, but even the Skeleton Short Archers also set their sights on them. Who made them block their sight? They were so big that they couldn't shoot other demons.
If you are a creature, then you have to shoot as a meat shield, and it will be difficult for the ADC to find an output position.
The human shield that the demonized creature was counting on has completely become a large target. The rapid-fire arrows are fired as if they are free. A single arrow can only cause limited damage to the human shield of the demonized creature, but dozens or hundreds of arrows can't.
?
In addition to arrows, there are also heavy sledgehammers!
The casualties of the human shields continued to increase. Seeing this, the demonized creatures in the rear dared to stay wherever they were, so they turned around and ran away. They could fight hard and get on top, but they did not reach the battlefield. They still had their sanity, so how could they stay there and wait to die.
Run, go back first!
The demonized creatures in the three passages ran out one after another and gathered together again, looking at the passages with horror and annoyance in their eyes.
Click, click, click...
There was a messy friction sound, and the undead skeletons poured out of the passage like a tide. They lined up in front of the passage, densely packed. Among the undead groups, some big guys were very eye-catching. They were the elite Heavy Hammer Skeleton Warriors, Skeleton Bull Demons, and Skeleton Demons.
Hill trolls, skeleton ogres, etc.
The demonized creatures looked to their left and right, and were surprised to find that their number had been greatly reduced without realizing it. From the beginning of the battle, there were more than 15,000 companions to less than 10,000 now, and more than 5,000 companions were left alive.
In the channel.
In the past, the undead were weak and numerous, and they could fight without restraint. But now, powerful troops have appeared on the undead side, making the demonized creatures extremely vigilant.
When fighting, they will lose their minds under the stimulation of demonic energy, but in non-combat situations, they also know how to think and weigh the pros and cons.
Most of the demonized creatures who came to fight the undead were civilians. They were not specially trained warriors, nor city guards, nor members of the underground army. They did not have such a firm will, and found that their companions were seriously injured.
Already starting to back off.
Some demonized creatures who have found a bargain and absorbed a lot of soul fire have begun to think in their hearts that the benefits have been obtained and there is no need to continue. It is only right to run away as soon as possible. It is not worth throwing their lives here.
They came to Comilan to fight the undead, not to work for Comilan and help deal with the undead. They came to get benefits. After all, they paid money and resources when they came to hunt the undead. There was no need to give up their wealth.
After throwing it out, he also threw his life away.
The undead do not know the thoughts of demonized creatures. They only know that the city lord said to kill these demonized creatures and take their bodies back.
The high-level undead skeleton looked at the waiting demonized creatures from a distance, raised the bone knife in his hand, pointed at them from a distance, and issued an attack order.
Orders were issued layer by layer, and upon receiving the instructions, the undead skeletons immediately launched an attack and rushed toward the demonized creatures with weapons in hand.
"escape!"
"Remove, remove!"
Demonic creatures such as gnolls and trolls immediately started making noise when the undead launched an attack. They ignored their companions around them and turned around and ran towards the great city of Comelan.
I've already been beaten, and a lot of soul fire has been absorbed. Let's take it slow first.
When someone escaped, a rout immediately broke out among the demonized creatures. A large number of demonized creatures turned around and left, throwing those who did not react and stood at the front to the undead to gain more for themselves.
time.
Demonized creatures don't pay much attention to loyalty. In the face of life and death, they are definitely dead Taoist friends and poor Taoists, so run first out of respect.
The low-level skeletal undead were not very intelligent. When they saw enemies in front of them, they did not chase the escaping demonized creatures. Instead, they rushed up in a swarm and surrounded the remaining demonized creatures.
The skeletal steppenwolf, skeletal giant dolphin, and skeletal short archer were mixed in the group of skeletal undead and launched an attack on the enemies in the square.
In an instant, there were shouts of curses, shouts of death, and wailing, and the fighting began again, but this time the demonized creatures were completely at a disadvantage.
Thousands of demonized creatures fled and arrived in front of the gate of Comelan City. Before they could call the door, the city gate had already opened. White-haired Pu Lang had been paying attention to the battle. When he saw the demonized creatures exiting from the passage, he saw another
A large number of undead swarmed out, and they generally knew what was going on.
It is impossible for him to close the door tightly and keep out all demonized creatures. That would be too irrational. Once he does this, not only will his own city lose a large number of people, but other cities will also come to him for explanations, and even to science.
Meilan launched a massive attack.
It is better to integrate the escaped demonized creatures into the city, let them go around to promote the undead, recruit more people, and consume the undead in waves. This is obviously more cost-effective. It can not only eliminate the serious problem of the undead, but also reduce the number of people.
The population of other dungeons can also obtain more resources, and the strength of Comilan can be retained. This is killing four birds with one stone.
As for the unlucky ones who stay in the square and are surrounded by the undead, that is not something that White-haired Pu Lang has to consider. This is their life. What does it have to do with him? So many people ran back, but you didn't run back.
, I also picked up someone, isn’t that your own problem?
Because the undead did not chase the retreating demonic creatures, those who escaped successfully returned to Comelana. After everyone entered the city, White-haired Prang immediately ordered the city gates to be closed.
The battle in the square outside did not last long. The unlucky ones who were left behind were all wiped out by the undead, and even the corpses were dragged away. The white-haired Pu Lang and a group of demonized creatures who were watching the fun watched with gusto.
There was no sense of danger in case the opponent attacked the city, but instead it seemed like we were watching a big show.
Tsk tsk tsk, that’s great. It seems that the undead like corpses.
We like the soul fire of the undead, and the undead like our corpses. This time, everyone is happy.
This kind of war that everyone is happy with is the real war. A war without interests is worthless.
Sure enough, it is me, the white-haired Pu Lang, who understands war best.
After the battle in the square ended, the undead took away the corpses, looked at the closed door of Cormelan in front, and silently retreated into the passage.
There are still 50,000 skeletal undead remaining in the passage as a defensive force to prevent the opponent from rushing out. Other skeletal undead are scattered back into the various passages to continue searching for demonized beasts for hunting.
The alien undead did not leave, they also stayed in the passage, while the elite heavy hammer skeleton warriors and skeleton short archers followed the team transporting the corpses, left the passage, and returned to the undead fortress.
…
Fortress of the Undead, main building.
Li Ziyu stood up and stretched, his bones cracked, the battle was over.
This battle was much faster than last time, less than half a day, but the gains were even greater than last time.
"Boss, how are you doing underground?" Zhang Peng saw Li Ziyu getting up and immediately came up to ask.
"Very good, the harvest is not small." Li Ziyu grinned, showing his white teeth.
The loss of undead skeletons this time exceeded the last time, and the harvest also exceeded the last time. Of course, if he hadn't sent more reinforcements in time, it might not have been a matter of reaping the rewards.
What pleased him the most was the skeleton short archer, which was much stronger than he imagined.
Originally, according to his speculation, the short archers should gather together, fire in rows, and use dense and fast arrow rain to deal a huge blow to the enemy, but this battle gave him a new idea.
In addition to gathering together to saturate the attack, it is actually not bad to blend into the pile of skeletons and undead to kill the enemy secretly, and it can even cause greater casualties if the opponent is not prepared.
The number of short archers in his hand is not many, only 1,000 in total. Compared to the tens of thousands of undead skeletons, the number of short archers can even be ignored.
Even if 1,000 short archers gather together to fire a volley, the effect they can produce may not be satisfactory. It is better to disperse them into a crowd and let them attack freely.
However, which plan is better will only be known after verification on the battlefield. It is impossible to get a definite answer just by relying on one or two battles.
With the increase in the number of soldiers, Li Ziyu also has more combat methods to choose from, which will make his combat stronger.
Standing at the window and looking out, the undead were carrying out the corpses. Li Ziyu had a hunch. He hadn't slept for long when the battle in the passage began. He had been paying attention to the battle, and his spirit was tense and full of energy.
I was excited, but now that the battle was over, sleepiness came over me.
"Boss..." Liu Xingxing wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Li Ziyu waving his hand.
"If you have anything to say, please wait until I wake up. If you're sleepy, you can go out." Li Ziyu said again and waved to Zhang Peng and Liu Xingxing.
Seeing this, the two nodded and left the main building.
As soon as they left, Li Ziyu started hibernation mode again, and all the undead buildings sank into the ground.
The tauren, who had been on alert, looked at the surrounding buildings that had returned to normal, and felt relieved. The buildings had gone underground again. The crisis was over, and they could do whatever they had to do.
…
Comelan Grand, the city lord's palace.
"The undead are so arrogant! They want us to go to war completely!"
"We absolutely cannot let them go like this!"
"Spread the word, spread it farther!"
"We need more help!"
"Tell the residents not to leave the city at will. The undead are too dangerous. Also, guard the city gate. Do not open the door without my order!"
The white-haired Pu Lang walked around with a stern face, his brows were knitted together, the corners of his mouth were drooped, and he was roaring angrily, as if he was fighting the undead.
The officers of the city defense army looked at me and I looked at you. They lowered their heads and remained silent. They didn't understand why the city lord suddenly became angry. It was better not to provoke him at this time.
The white-haired Pu Lang turned his head and saw the stupid looks of the city defense officers. He was furious and roared again: "What are you doing standing here stupidly? Didn't you hear what I said? Go do something!"
"Get out, get out of here!"
Amid the roar, the city defense officers ran faster than rabbits.
After driving everyone away, the attendant closed the door from the outside. Only the white-haired Pu Lang was left in the room. He still looked angry, but his eyes were scanning around, and he slowly walked back behind the table with his hands behind his back.
, he sat comfortably on the chair, his angry expression wiped away, and he revealed a smile.
"Hahaha, hahaha, hahahaha..."
His laughter grew louder and louder, and he was so happy that he couldn't control himself.
Great, I’m going to post it myself.
Undead is really a lucky star. Whether you can take a step forward depends on the undead.
This time, more than 5,000 demonized creatures from other cities came to Comelan Grand, which greatly stimulated the economy of Comelan Grande. Those civilians lived well, so they were naturally grateful to him as the city lord, and he also specially asked people to come.
After inquiring, the common people of Comilan showed a sharp increase in their favorability towards him.
What a great thing.
The underground world is different from the above-ground world. The demonized creatures living in the underground world are warlike and advocate the so-called freedom. It does not mean that those demonized creatures will listen to you now that you are the city lord, but that if you give them benefits, they will
will listen to you.
And what will happen to the city lord if he does not get the support of the common people? It will not be his collapse, but his life.
In the history of underground cities, there are many examples of people who were overthrown by civilians because they did not handle the relationship with civilians well, and eventually lost their lives.
If you want to gain power in the underground world, you must have enough power and enough manpower. If you want to attack other cities, the most important thing is to have soldiers. Relying on the city defense army, the number of soldiers is definitely not enough. You must rely on it.
, those low-level civilians!
How to gain support from civilians has always been something every dungeon owner needs to consider.
Obviously, he did the right thing this time, and at least he gained the support of the common people of Comilan.
Of course, he can't act cheerfully in front of outsiders at will. After all, thousands of people have just died. If he is cheerful, it is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire. In the eyes of those lowly civilians, this is a sign of a villain's success. He has to
Stand up for justice and let people know that he, the city lord, is close to the common people, so as to gain more support.
Well, even if I want to laugh again, I have to hold it back.
There are also people in other dungeons, after learning about his anger, they may also increase their favorability. This is equivalent to planting nails in other dungeons. No matter how the final battle against the undead is, he will not lose.
.
Who is behind the undead? Can you make an appointment to have a chat? This is a good business. Only by working together can we become bigger and stronger.
White-haired Pu Lang was thinking in his mind, but now, he found that the undead who came were not very intelligent, and they had not seen the other party's senior officials. They were basically soldiers. Even if he wanted to talk to the other party, he had no way to start.
As for the undead, we can only take one step at a time. If we want to contact the undead, we can't let others know about it. We can only hide it in our hearts. Well, we might as well think more about how to coax people from other dungeons to come and hunt the undead.
The news must not only spread out, but also spread as far as possible, and the more people who come, the better.
"The city lord really cares about people. Look at the casualties caused by the undead this time. It makes him angry."
"Yes, which city lord can be as good as our city lord."
"Support the city lord!"
The incident of white-haired Prang losing his temper was not concealed at all, and was quickly spread by the officers of the city defense army, causing the residents of Comilan to once again increase their evaluation of him.
And if it was done intentionally, news of the undead was quickly spread.
