Chapter 121: Caught in a Bitter Battle
Seven or eight guards disappeared into the ranks, the caravan continued to move slowly, and after a while, the guards returned, all with excited looks on their faces, gesturing at the ghost.
The ghost whispered to Ling Yue, "The spies have been eliminated, thank you brother." ”
He knew very well that eliminating the other party's spies was equivalent to stabbing the other party's eyes, which was very beneficial to his own people, and it would be much more convenient to act again.
Under the influence of Ling Yue's inquiry magic, when the caravan traveled ten miles, a total of seven groups of bandit spies died at the hands of the ghost's personal guards.
As she was advancing, Ling Yue suddenly opened her eyes and said in a deep voice, "Don't go yet, there is a situation ahead." ”
Ling Yue raised her hand and asked the caravan to stop advancing, the mountain road in front of her was much narrower than the path they had just passed, the high mountains on both sides were towering, there was no sound in the woods on the mountain, and it was a little strange in calm.
The ghost looked at Ling Yue and said, "Are there spies again?"
Ling Yue shook his head, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and said, "It's not a spy, there are at least three thousand people on the mountains on both sides, and their breathing is very short, they should be preparing to ambush our enemy." ”
The ghost snorted coldly and said, "These bandits are really tired of being alive, they really dare to intercept us, three thousand people, hum." ”
Ling Yue muttered, "Ghost Leader, this way, I have a way to force these bandits out, and you order your men to prepare to attack." ”
In fact, with Ling Yue's current level of magic, if she attacked the bandits on both sides of the mountain with all her might, she would definitely bring them huge casualties, but after all, she was born in Aden and had good intentions, so she couldn't bear to kill herself, so she had this proposal.
The ghost was overjoyed, although he didn't know much about magic, Ling Yue's previous performance had already made him full of confidence in this young magician, and immediately summoned the wind spirit and asked him to move the bow and arrow brigade to the front of the team, and the light cavalry brigade and the hoplite brigade were ready to charge.
Ling Yue took out the angel staff, sighed lightly, and chanted, "Divine surging power is scattered on the world, destroy the darkness in the world." ”
The angel staff surged with golden light, Ling Yue slowly floated from the horse's back, hanging at the front of the team, the surging divine aura filled her delicate body, she slowly closed her eyes, and raised the angel staff.
The golden light became more and more abundant, and under the surprised gaze of everyone in the caravan, Ling Yue's body was already like a small sun, completely enveloped in golden light.
Huang Cang floated to the bottom of Ling Yue, Xuantian True Qi filled his body, staring intently at the movements around him, ready to respond at any time.
What happened on the caravan's side was naturally seen by the thieves who were in ambush on both sides of the mountain road.
There was no shortage of well-informed people among them, and one of them whispered, "This is light magic, we have been discovered, archers, quick, shoot that magician." ”
Although Ling Yue's position was still out of reach, it had already entered the attack range of the bandits, and for a while, countless drizzle-like long arrows flew out, shooting Ling Yue in the air.
How could Huang Cang let Ling Yue be harmed? Using the True Qi Floating Body Technique that he had just learned, he floated in front of Ling Yue.
The pale green Xuantian Transformation Shield completely protected himself and Ling Yue, and the long arrows shot in front of them, unable to penetrate the solid defense of their heads at all, and they fell to the ground one after another.
The huge shields of the hoplites showed their might. The cone-shaped bottom was deep into the ground, and the caravan behind them took refuge under the wagon.
The bandits' arrow attacks did little damage to the caravan, except for wounding a few horses.
Ling Yue's magic had been completed at this time, enveloping her delicate body, and the golden light turned into a huge golden ball that floated out, and the golden ball slowly rushed forward and rose into the air.
Ling Yue suddenly opened her eyes, her eyes were full of golden light, and she shouted in a deep voice: "Fly away, the divine light is shining." ”
The golden ball of light in the air stagnated, and without making any sound, the golden ball exploded, and bits of gold stars flew out, flying towards the ambush of the bandits on both sides.
Ling Yue's magic didn't want to hurt anyone, what Venus was referring to was the rolling wood and rocks that the bandits had prepared in advance and the mountains around them.
"Boom!"
Numerous explosions were heard, clouds of smoke rose from the mountains on both sides, panicked shouts continued to sound, and some broken stones and logs continued to be scattered in the mountain path.
The bandits were finally unable to ambush any longer. As a last resort, he abandoned the scattered rolling logs and rocks that had been blown up, and several thousand people attacked the caravan from the front.
This kind of frontal attack was what the ghost wanted to see the most, and he shouted, "Bow and arrow brigade, shoot flat three times." ”
Four hundred steel-headed feather arrows flew out, and for these bandits who only coveted lightness and flexibility, and had no protection on their bodies, the feather arrows were like their life talismans, and a terrible scream sounded.
Four hundred long arrows accurately took four hundred and two lives, and the shadowless arrows of the wind spirit pierced through the hearts of three enemies before they stopped.
The bow and arrow brigade fired three times, and immediately took nearly a third of the lives of the bandits.
By this time, the bandits had rushed to a distance of less than thirty meters from the caravan.
Nian Ling shouted, "Warriors, follow me." ”
Raising the heavy spear in his hand, he urged him to step off his horse and rush towards the enemy like a black whirlwind, and behind him were four hundred heavily armed cavalrymen who had laid down their huge shields.
At the same time, they raised their heavy spears forward, and with the roar of horses' hooves like thunder, they rushed into the enemy's camp.
The impact of the hoplites was as powerful as the waves, and under the sudden impact, hundreds of bandits in front of them were suddenly provoked by the heavy spears, and the spirit was like a wind tiger, and the heavy spears in their hands flashed with yellow light, and each spear was picked out to kill a bandit.
The bandits were already frightened by such a strong onslaught, but they could not retreat now.
Because, their families are in the hands of the chief village master, and if they are enemies with the undead mercenary group here, they may only die for themselves, and if they retreat, the whole family will die under the cruel head of the village.
Therefore, they can only rush, and only by destroying the enemy in front of them can they have any hope of life.
The remaining 2,000 or so bandits used their full potential to block the onslaught of the hoplites with their bodies.
Although the defense of the hoplites was solid, there were also masters among the bandits, and under the light of the fighting spirit, for a while, more than ten hoplites had been killed in the sea of people, and the hoplites suddenly fell into a bitter battle.
The ghost's eyes kept flashing with coldness, and every time one of his subordinates died, his heart would be touched, these hoplites were not only the most valuable troops in the undead mercenary group, but these mercenaries were also his brothers and relatives.
He took a deep breath to stabilize his mind, and the ghost shouted, "The guards attack, the bow brigade shoots the back of the bandits, and the light cavalry brigade maintains formation to protect the caravan." ”
After speaking, wrapped in the red douqi light, he personally led his two hundred guards to rush out.
The seventh-level magic god that had been released earlier made Ling Yue slightly tired, and she pulled out Huang Cang, who was about to rush out with the ghost.
Hurriedly said: "Big brother, you are still here to protect me, I will continue to support them with magic." ”
As he spoke, he began to chant a second spell.
Although this was just an ordinary fourth-level magic, it was very different when it was used in Ling Yue's hands, the original small range of auxiliary magic, under her surging divine power, the area increased greatly.
The golden light was rendered, and it instantly enveloped the hoplites and ghost guards that were attacking in front, and the soldiers of the undead mercenary group all felt that their whole body strength had greatly increased, and the speed of their attacks was much faster.
With the addition of the pro-guards, the disadvantage was immediately reversed, and one after another the bandits died under their weapons.
The archers under Feng Ling's command were not idle, and the steel arrows fired from the back fell accurately into the bandits, although the accuracy was much worse than that of flat shooting.
But a moment of work also took the lives of hundreds of bandits. The number of bandits decreased dramatically, and by this time, there were only about 1,500 people left, and the gap between the two sides was narrowing.
At the top of the mountain, the green king, the head of the village, watched the robbers below retreat with a sinking face, snorted angrily, and said: "What a waste, twice as many as the other party, and was killed without any power to fight back." ”
A man in black beside the Green King whispered: "My lord, this undead mercenary group is even more powerful than we imagined, and there are light magicians among them, if this continues, I'm afraid those stupid people are dead, and they won't be able to make the mercenary group suffer too much blow, you see, isn't it ......"
The Green King nodded, and shouted in a deep voice: "Brothers, rush with me, take advantage of the opponent's lack of troops to directly attack the opponent's caravan, and give me a little bit of ruthlessness, leaving no room for survival." ”
At his command, seventy black shadows shot out and poured down from the mountain wall.
The first one to be alert was Ling Yue, her inquiry magic was never withdrawn, the Green King and his men were indeed strong, and the hidden aura did not even detect the inquiry magic of the light system.
It wasn't until the moment they made their move that Ling Yue felt something strange on the top of the mountain, and the strength of the enemy surprised her, and she hurriedly said to Huang Cang: "Big brother, look, the enemy's main force seems to be coming. ”
Huang Cang looked in the direction that Ling Yue was pointing, and sure enough, dozens of figures were falling quickly on the hillside wall, and it could be seen from their lightning-fast speed that these people's skills were very powerful, and they were not ordinary bandits.
At this time, the ghost's personal guards and Nian Ling's heavy cavalry infantry brigade were entangled with the bandits in front, and they were powerless to save them, so it seemed that they could only rely on themselves.
Feng Ling also heard Ling Yue's shout, and his heart sank, and he shouted: "Bow and arrow brigade, target mountain, shoot up." ”
Under his command, four hundred and one long arrows turned into four hundred and one graceful arcs, and shot like lightning towards the falling black shadow. However, to everyone's surprise, something happened.
The falling black shadows released black light almost at the same time, and after the long arrows touched these lights, they fell one after another, including the shadowless arrows of the wind spirit, without causing any damage to the other party.
Chang Ling immediately made a decision, took off the Extreme Ice Silver Spear on the saddle, and said in a cold voice: "The light cavalry brigade dismounts and prepares to attack." ”
The hussars jumped neatly from their horses, half long swords and half spears, forming a strong defensive line, waiting for the onslaught of the enemy.
The men in black fell under the leadership of the Green King, and they didn't look at the mercenaries in front of them at all, and rushed forward without hesitation.
Chang Ling let out a loud shout, and the Extreme Ice Silver Spear in his hand transformed into a debut blue light and rushed forward.
The enemy seemed to be well aware of her strength, and two men swung their scimitars at her.
The black fighting spirit wrapped around her extreme ice silver spear, and in the sound of the collision, Chang Ling was surprised to feel the strength of the other party, and in one look, he didn't even hurt the two black-clothed people.
The competitive heart rose, and the silver spear in his hand conjured ten thousand rays of light, attacking the two men in black.
However, Chang Ling forgot one thing, the two men in black on the other side could tie with him, and her subordinates were far inferior to her skills.
Dozens of black-clothed men rushed into the camp of the light cavalry brigade like a sharp blade, and the screams rang out again and again, and the light cavalry, which was not weak, could not cause any obstacles to these black-clothed men at all.
The man in black shot extremely ruthlessly, the attack of the light cavalry could not break through their protective fighting spirit at all, the black light flashed continuously, and dozens of light cavalry died tragically in the hands of the man in black in just a few blinks.
The light cavalry has always been known for their flexibility, and this kind of tough duel is what they are not good at, not to mention that their opponents are so fierce and tough.
When Feng Ling saw that Chang Ling's men were killed and wounded so quickly, he was immediately shocked, and immediately made a decision, shouting: "The bow and arrow brigade will change its sword and support the light cavalry brigade." He pulled out the long knife behind his back and pounced first.
Huang Cang looked at Ling Yue, they were taken aback by the powerful attacks of the men in black, the martial arts of these men in black were so high and their methods were so ruthless that they far surpassed those ordinary killers.
Although they were not as good as Brahma and the others, Huang Cang clearly felt that their skills were by no means below the masters of the Killing Guild, where did they come from so many masters?
Ling Yue bit her lip and said, "Big brother, you go, if this continues, those undead subordinates will suffer heavy losses." I'll support you in the back, don't worry, I have the Heavenly God!"
Huang Cang didn't dare to leave Ling Yue's side easily, because he was afraid that she would be attacked by the enemy, and he was also worried about the unfavorable situation when he saw that there was no enemy around him, and he nodded when he heard this: "Brother, you are careful. ”
After speaking, he used Xuantian to transform into a pale green solid energy sword, and several ups and downs pounced on the black-clothed man who was slaughtering mercenaries.
While Ling Yue was talking to Huang Cang, hundreds of members of the undead mercenary group had died at the hands of the men in black, and the ground was littered with the broken limbs of the members of the undead mercenary group.
Wind Spirit and Chang Ling joined forces, but they only managed to resist the five men in black.
Huang Cang rushed forward, shouted, held the energy sword with both hands, and suddenly swung down, the pale green light was flourishing, and in the loud bang, the seven black-clothed men spurted blood and retreated.
But under Huang Cang's powerful attack, they were only injured, and Huang Cang was surprised to find that the strength of these black-clothed people's bodies was far beyond his imagination.
The ghost and Nian Ling also found out that there was a fire in the backyard, but there were still thousands of thieves entangled with them in front of them, and they couldn't spare their hands to help, so they could only kill the thieves in front of them with all their might, and strive to free up their hands to help Chang Ling and the others.
The battle between the two sides has entered a white-hot stage, which can only be described as tragic, and several lives are lost almost every second.
Huang Cang hadn't exerted his full strength at the beginning, but when he saw the mercenaries around him die tragically at the hands of the other party one by one, the killing intent in his heart was finally stimulated.
With an angry shout, the five black-clothed people surrounding him shook their whole bodies at the same time, and the pale green light of Huang Cang's Xuantian Transformation Sword gradually turned into blue-green, and suddenly slashed out, and suddenly three black-clothed people were cut off by their waists.
The difference in strength made them powerless to resist Huang Cang's attack at all, and the fighting qi used to protect their bodies had no effect at all.
This is also the first time that the man in black has been injured on a person's hand since he appeared.
After killing the three of them, Huang Cang suddenly felt an inexplicable pleasure in his heart, and there was a cold feeling coming from the blood spirit bead in his chest, as if he was asking him for battle.
Huang Cang barely suppressed the urge to use the Blood Spirit Bead, his body jumped high, and the Xuantian Transformation Sword in his hand suddenly skyrocketed to two meters in length, slashing towards the more than ten black-clothed people under him.
In the loud bang, more than a dozen black-clothed people relied on their combined strength to barely resist Huang Cang's strong attack, but they were also slightly injured at the same time.
At this time, Ling Yue's first magic finally arrived, and the golden divine light shrouded the bodies of everyone in the field, and the mercenaries and Huang Cang felt a spiritual shock at the same time, and their strength and speed increased greatly.
The wounded mercenaries were given a respite from this massive recovery magic, and the warm energy moistened their bodies, and their physical strength quickly recovered.
The men in black froze, as if they were very tired of the golden light.
It turned out that when Ling Yue discovered that the other party's fighting spirit was a dark attribute, she resolutely increased the range of her auxiliary recovery magic, enveloping the man in black as well, and sure enough, it had an effect.
Taking advantage of the moment when the man in black slowed down, Chang Ling finally killed an opponent with the Extreme Ice Silver Spear. This, Huang Cang also took this opportunity to eliminate two more enemies.
At this point, they controlled the one-sided situation, and with the assistance of the mercenaries with their lives, they gradually stabilized their position.
Angry shouts rang out, and a tall man in black suddenly rushed towards Huang Cang.
Huang Cang's heart froze, he clearly felt the pressure brought by this man in black, and the black fighting qi condensed into a ball, blasting towards his chest without any fancy feelings.
Huang Cang snorted coldly, Qi Luck Dantian, mobilized the huge energy of the golden body, a solid blue-green light suddenly appeared, and the two different colors of fighting qi suddenly collided in the air, and in the loud bang, the strong shock wave shocked the crowd below them.
The man in black in the distance was better, but he just retreated more than ten meters, and the mercenaries were miserable, and under the shock wave, more than ten people were suddenly seriously injured.
Fortunately, at this time, Ling Yue's second magic arrived, and the soft white light enveloped the remnants of the two brigades, magically healing the wounds on their bodies.
