The first strike of chain lightning is the most powerful. According to Richard's initial prediction, if a sky-level expert is hit by chain lightning for the first time, he will be seriously injured even if he is not dead. There is no possibility of survival for those below the sky level in the face of the chain lightning's damage.
.
This orc officer was chosen by Somra as the target of the first strike. After being hit by the chain lightning, he fell to the ground without moving.
"grown ups!"
"ah!"
The orc soldiers lined up around them saw the officer who had just been lecturing arrive on the ground. There was a commotion in the team, but this commotion was quickly replaced by screams.
Somra's chain lightning can jump thirty-six times in a row. This formation is most suitable for chain lightning. The next second after the orc commander fell, the soldier closest to him also jumped with him.
After receiving the same order, he was hit by a blue arc of electricity and fell to the ground twitching.
Then, as if forming a chain reaction, blue electric arcs jumped crazily in the orc team, and one orc warrior fell to the ground one after another. It was not until a few seconds later that the blue arc stopped jumping among the orc warriors. Richard carefully
After counting, there were exactly thirty-six orcs arriving on the ground. Somla's chain lightning played its maximum role, and it was obvious that the chain lightning with diminishing damage could also cause fatal damage to ordinary orc warriors. The chain lightning skill was indeed
Magic skills.
Because everything happened so quickly, most of the orc warriors were still stunned in place, not knowing how to act. Somra took the opportunity to launch chain lightning twice more.
The blue arc of electricity began to pulse among the crowd of orc warriors again, and the soldiers who were waiting for them fell one after another.
This time the orc warriors finally came to their senses. The fear caused by the chain lightning was even greater than that of the giant dragon. At least being bitten to death by the giant or sprayed with a breath of dragon breath was traceable. This chain lightning
Except for the blue arc jumping, there was no other trace, and there was no pattern in who it would jump to at the next moment. The terrifying pressure caused by this random death quickly overwhelmed the hundreds of orc warriors guarding the gate of the village. After losing their
After the commander dropped more than a hundred corpses, most of the orcs turned around and ran away, no longer wanting to stay here and suffer inexplicable casualties.
They quickly ran out of Somra's casting range. In fact, Somra had exhausted all his magic power at this time, and it was impossible to launch another chain lightning in a short time. However, Qianzhai was already frightened.
The orcs didn't know this. There was only a front stronghold defended by 500 people. Before the battle with humans, more than 20% of the troops were lost, including the commander. It would be strange if it didn't explode.
Just by running away, they were equivalent to giving up the defense of the front village at the foot of the mountain, allowing the attacking soldiers of the two flag regiments of the Northern Route Army to advance without any hindrance.
"Rush over!"
"Come on!"
Although the two flag captains who led the team were also a little confused about the collapse of the orcs' front stronghold, they still had the ability to seize the opportunity. Knowing that they could not give the orcs time to react at this time, they immediately ordered the troops to change from walking quickly to walking quickly.
Cheng Benpao must take this opportunity to open the village gate at the foot of Yandong Mountain first.
"Damn it, who allowed them to retreat?"
"Order them to turn around and push back immediately. Anyone who retreats over the mountainside will be executed immediately."
Just when the morale of the attacking human army was at its peak, the orc officer who saw the whole process on the mountain looked furious. The soldiers guarding the front village at the foot of the mountain were all his subordinates, and they were just like this before they had any contact with humans.
Fleeing, he only felt his face burning.
"Okay, let them retreat to the mountainside. The front stronghold cannot be defended in the first place. Let the broken troops reorganize on the mountainside and order the troops to prepare logs and rocks."
"Yes, General Adreu!"
No matter how angry the leader of the orc flag regiment was, he did not dare to speak to the legion commander Adlu. With Adlu speaking, these fleeing orc soldiers were not attacked by friendly forces on the mountain, but successfully returned to the mountainside.
Slope.
"Did any of you see clearly what humans just did?"
What Adlu said was naturally referring to the scene where Somra released the chain lightning. So many warriors suddenly fell. As long as they were not blind, they should have noticed it.
"It seemed like a blue light flew in from the human side, and then hundreds of soldiers fell down."
"There was burnt green smoke coming out of the body, and it looked like it had been injured by lightning."
Thunderstorms often occur in the eastern plateau in the summer. Cattle and sheep are killed every year, and some unlucky orcs are directly killed by lightning. They are not unfamiliar with lightning.
"The first one suffered such heavy casualties without any preparation. There is really no way to collapse when the commander is dead. Even if the dragon appeared, they should not collapse so quickly."
The orcs in Cave Mountain are somewhat mentally prepared for the human dragon, and they have also prepared some corresponding measures. This kind of tangible threat will not break down the defenses of all the orc soldiers at once.
But this was the first time chain lightning appeared on the battlefield, and the unknown was the scariest thing. Moreover, this kind of unknown would still take away lives.
"It should be the fault of those two enemies who suddenly appeared. The light seemed to be coming from the hands of that blue-skinned weirdo."
"I don't know what kind of method humans are using. If they can continue to use it later, our battle will be even more difficult."
"Probably not. If humans can keep using this method, there will be so many people coming back. If he can keep using it, why should we fight? We might as well just surrender."
"Lord Adlu, the human army has occupied the front stronghold."
While they were talking, the attacking human legion had already rushed to the foot of the cave. Most of the orc troops originally stationed were scattered by Somla's three chain lightning strikes. There were only a pitiful number of orc warriors holding on. The human legion was still paying the price.
After paying a small price, they successfully broke through the orcs' front stronghold.
"oh!"
The cheers of the human army could be heard at the foot of the mountain, and they waved their weapons at the orcs on the mountain, looking provocative.
"Sir, do you want to give them some color?"
"Forget it, don't expose it in advance. The human dragons will not move out. All bed crossbows and dragon hunting crossbows are hidden. The location of the front stronghold is not advantageous. We were originally planning to give up. Let the humans be happy for a while."
Although the two flag regiments attacking at this time broke through the front stronghold, most of them were exposed to the range of the orc crossbows. The wooden stronghold was not built to protect the back. The orcs on the mountain were separated by several hundred meters.
Ordinary arrows cannot be shot, but a heavy weapon like the bed crossbow can definitely cause damage in this range. If the orcs use their full strength at this time, they should be able to cause considerable damage to the two flag regiments in the front village.
of casualties.
However, the orcs had already hidden all the weapons that could hurt the dragon, such as the large bed crossbow and the dragon hunting crossbow, and would wait until the dragon started to attack. They were unwilling to be exposed at this time, so the attacking troops were very relaxed.
They occupied the front village.
"Sir, the remnants of the enemy in the front camp have been eliminated, and the front camp has been completely captured."
"Order the army to continue attacking the orcs on the mountainside!"
"Yes, sir!"
After Somra exhausted his magic power, Richard used teleportation to take him back to his own formation and then reapplied himself with the Dragon King's divine power. The attributes of the system soldiers increased again.
After Richard's order was issued, the two flag regiments that easily occupied the front village reorganized under the orders of the officers, and then marched towards the mountainside of Yandong Mountain.
"Moriel, after the army engages the orcs, you can find a suitable opportunity to attack with the dragon and capture Cave Mountain in one go."
"Yes, sir!"
"kill!"
Following the two flag regiments, the 10,000-strong army walked up the gentle slope and began to charge under the command of the officers while carrying shields. The offensive battle around Yandong Mountain was officially begun.
