Volume 1 The Beginning of the Magic Sword Chapter 24, Besieging the Shadows

On the ninth floor, countless torches burned in the limited space, making it even more unbearable, and the smell of pine oil burning was everywhere between breaths.

Five miles away from the entrance, the soldiers of the Soldier Regiment formed three crooked skirmishers and engaged the monsters.

Ghosts are falling, floating bombs are exploding, soldiers are being carried back and retreating to the eighth floor, and more are soldiers who fall and never get up again.

Tihin found a high ground behind the battle line, took out the prism, fixed it to the staff, and summoned the magic spirit, magnifying the power of the prism a thousand times.

The adventuring team of three archers was left behind to protect Mage Tihin, while the other five adventuring teams moved to the battle line and joined the battle.

Obviously different from the fighting style of the magic sword squad, the four adventure squads of pure warriors pressed at high speed when they approached the battle line, and the line in front of them was retreating towards their side, the soldiers were crumbling by the impact of the ghost, and twenty people immediately filled the gap with their pets and pressed back the monsters that stood out from the battle line.

The magic sword team approached the battle line under the command of Wu Lian, but did not participate in hand-to-hand combat, and Ling and Ye Ya launched a long-range attack to support the soldiers, Wu Lian applied blessing techniques, light body techniques, and strength techniques to the soldiers in the front row, and applied recovery techniques to the wounded soldiers, while Luo Sheng and Miao Xiaodao held shields and weapons to guard the front.

In general, the soldier regiment has an absolute advantage, but it is afraid of the monster's dying counterattack, so it is slowly advancing to compress the monster's movement space.

A quarter of an hour later, Tihin's guidance finally came, and a bright red light leaped over the soldier line, pointing to a location not far behind the monster line.

A black monster five or six meters tall froze for a moment, and then disappeared, but in this short scene, at least hundreds of people saw it, that tall black shadow.

"The 2nd and 3rd Squadrons of the 9th Infantry Brigade!" The herald waved torches and issued a flag to the 9th Infantry Brigade, and more than 500 soldiers responded to the order and pounced due north.

Baron Morachang watched all the torches move, and said to the captain of the guard behind him, "Let's go, go over and have a look!"

The last reserve was also put into battle, and there was really no need for him to be in the middle, and the battle would be successful.

Mora often walked to the bottom of the slope and added another insurance, "Send two people to inform the second and seventh brigades not to repair, and this matter will be solved today." ”

Watching the two guards disappear at the entrance, Mora often became inexplicably excited, speaking of which, he hadn't entered the battlefield for seven or eight years, he suddenly drew his long sword and pointed at the top of the cave obliquely, "Brothers, follow me!"

The Shadow Creeping on the ground moves quickly, it has already activated its invisibility spell, and as the leader of the new generation of the undead high-level races, it is very adept at using the bleak environment to hide itself.

The transfer was unsuccessful, and a red beam of light from afar followed its shape, revealing its majestic body in a daze.

The shadow simply stopped, lifted the stealth technique, and looked in the direction of the red light, and then the two strong arms lifted the floating bomb and ghost in front of him, and moved towards the light source.

It seems that if you don't solve this red light, you can't use stealth and continue to hide.

The shadow as a whole is black mist, more than half a body higher than the soldiers, the head is very small, similar to a normal human, and even a circle smaller, but the body is very strong, the shoulder width has reached a terrifying three meters and a half, the strong arms are extended, and the end is a claw hand that shines with a black and bright metallic luster, the average length of the claws is more than five centimeters, occasionally flashing cold light, extremely sharp, the whole body is sharply reduced at the waist position into fog and ground contact, and the movement speed is extremely fast.

The reserve of the infantry brigade, following the guidance of the red light, broke into the monster brigade, just in time to encounter the oncoming shadow.

"Hey!" the two soldiers stabbed their spears into Shadow's chest, and to their surprise, they were able to strike a single blow!

But then the soldier sensed that something was wrong, there was no sense of obstruction in his hand, and the spear seemed to cut through the air, and did not touch the entity.

The shadow arm swept slightly, and the sharp claw sliced the necks of the two soldiers, blood gushing out, the soldier's eyes widened, and his hands tightly covered his neck, but he couldn't stop the blood from gushing between his fingers, and he fell weakly.

"Bow and arrow attack! bow and arrow attack!" the squadron leader of the infantry brigade saw clearly, brandished his long sword, and ordered loudly.

The arrow feathers shot towards the shadows, and the arrow feathers were like spears, all passing through the shadow body, and in just one breath, there were more than a hundred arrow feathers passing through the shadow body, and the black mist became a little lighter, but it was not obvious in the dimness.

The shadow sprinted to the ground, and the right arm and claw hand changed into a hammer the size of a bucket, and under the drive of the strong arm, he waved and rushed into the group of soldiers, and then screams were heard frequently, and there were no soldiers at all who were the Shadow's generals.

"Wind Blade!"

Under the protection of Luo Sheng and others, Ye Ya guided the long-accumulated wind magic elves to build a wind blade spell, the rapidly rotating strong wind blade, following Ye Ya's guidance, swayed left and right, when the shadow was repelled by more than ten shields, and the body shape was uncontrollable, the wind blade quickly pounced, cutting through the left shoulder of the shadow, rolling up a large area of black mist.

The hammer head of the shadow's right hand disappeared when he was injured, and the whole body shook continuously, and the change in the black mist was too obvious, everyone saw it, the black fog had a noticeable dimness, and the surrounding soldiers took the opportunity to distance themselves, and their weapons were all pointed at the shadow.

Of course, the Seventh Soldier Regiment has its own team of mages, but at this time, they are still in the defense area, and there is only one mage who follows Deputy Commander Mora Chang to the royal capital to replenish the new soldiers.

In the previous battle, Ti Hin had never caught this cunning shadow, otherwise with the combat power of Mage Ti Hin's main position, I am afraid that one person would be able to kill this monster that was a headache for the entire army of soldiers.

"Raptor! Take Ye Ya and run!" Seeing the soldiers around him hiding from the shadows like a plague, Wu Lian knew that it was not good.

Even if the physical attack effect is not high, if it is besieged together, it can bring enough threat to the shadow, and it can also greatly hinder the impact ability of the shadow, and it is not impossible to kill the shadow completely.

As soon as the soldiers in front retreated, the crazy shadow had space, and after a short period of acceleration, they immediately broke through the encirclement and went straight to Ye Ya.

Seeing this, Wu Lian had to order the raptor to carry Ye Ya up.

Now, he can only hope that Ye Ya's magic attainments are enough to successfully launch spells in the bumpy movement.

Ye Ya jumped on the back of the raptor, grabbed the dorsal fin in the center of the back with his left hand, and the raptor spread his steps and ran wildly in the direction guided by Luo Sheng, that direction was the hillside where Master Tihin stayed, and the beams of light were constantly emitting from there, shining on the shadows.

"Stop him!" Wu Lian shouted, and the soldiers and adventurers around him looked at each other, where did this little girl come from, shouting?

"Gain time, follow me, rush!" Baron Morachang arrived just in time with the guards, more than a dozen people rushed from the side of the shadows, and the deputy commander played an absolute leading role for everyone, and the retreating soldiers swarmed up.

The long sword in Baron Morachang's hand was obviously not an ordinary combat sword, and it flashed with a dazzling pale red light when he swung it, and it was actually a fire-type magic sword.

The left claw of the shadow turned into a shield to block, red points of light splashed everywhere, and the shield retreated, its shield was not a real shield, it was an extension of its body, and it was also a part of its body.

The human beings in front of him are different from ordinary soldiers, the shadow right claw is swept evenly, and it is easily flashed by Mora, and many years of military career have given the middle-aged man a combat power that surpasses that of ordinary soldiers.

Seeing that the fleeing mage stopped, gathering the magic elves again not far away, and was about to inflict great damage on himself, the shadow's right claw was swinging, and the claw hand suddenly changed into a long hammer, the length of which was immediately more than a foot longer, and the hammer head hit Baron Morachang's right waist fiercely.

Poor Baron Morachang, who has the strength of a full-time soldier or above, has not had the experience of fighting to the death for many years, and his martial arts have regressed, so he immediately flew out upside down and fell behind the soldier's line, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.

The soldiers rushed up, stabbed the spears and swords in their hands, and the shield hands stepped up, trying to limit the shadows, and the archers kept shooting arrow feathers, but the shadows didn't care, and took the shields and hammers that were conjured, and quickly broke through the encirclement and ran away.

The weapons conjured up by the shadows have a great increase in attack and are equally expensive.

"Raptor, go!" shouted Ulian as he retreated.

"Throw it away!"

Luo Sheng put the shield on his left shoulder, and gathered all his strength towards his right shoulder.

The force comes from the legs, gathers in the waist, and becomes in the limbs!

Regardless of defense!

Don't count dodging!

Hit it all out!

The essence of the Qiankun throwing skill echoed in Luo Sheng's mind, and the spear in his right hand calculated the position and speed of the shadow, and suddenly stabbed out, and the Miao knife beside him also stabbed out the long sword that also contained the essence of the Qiankun throw.

Hit!

The shadow was stabbed in the lower waist and shook repeatedly, but he didn't expect that the two small human warriors had also caused themselves quite a lot of damage, and in anger, they opened their arms left and right, and wanted to cut open the chests of the two humans.

As a swordsman, Miao Xiaodao's speed was extremely fast, and after the long sword was successful, he immediately withdrew, and retreated in time, which was able to avoid the claws that swept across his chest.

In the midst of breathing, there was a sudden loosening on his body, which turned out to be the straps of the backpack being cut off, followed by a hot pain in his chest, three scratches not far from each other, and blood flowers.

"Ah~" Miao Xiaodao's long sword pointed at the shadows, retreated again and again, holding the left hand of the shield, approached his chest and left, hesitating whether to cover it or not, if it was just now, he retreated a little slower, and now his chest must be wide open.

"Ahh

It doesn't look like a thick little arm, and the claw hand is only the size of an ordinary human palm, but the strength is not at the same level as a human at all.

The shield was like being hit by a thousand catties of boulders, and it immediately concave, and Luo Sheng behind the shield spurted blood arrows from his mouth, and the whole figure flew away, and his heels fell back on the sandy ground and ploughed out a deep ditch more than five meters long, which could bury the entire foot surface.

Luo Sheng spurted out a large mouthful of blood on his back, and withdrew all his strength, the weight of the shield and spear hung down with his hands, and the whole person fell on his back.

The knife spread its wings and leaped to the back of the shadow, the double knives staggered and slashed at the shadow neck, the shadow neck shook slightly, the attack of the knife did not cause much damage like spears and arrow feathers, and after the attack, the jump of the knife had come to an end, and it had to fall to the ground unwillingly.

Unlike the knife, the blade's wings can only assist in movement and jumping, allowing the jump time to be slightly extended, but Minzhen's wings are truly wings, flying directly on the shadow's face and the back of the head, finding the right opportunity, and the wings do not hesitate to pass by.

Everyone, for the first time, saw that the physical attack caused considerable damage to the shadow, the fiery red edge of Min Zhen's wings, burst out with dazzling light, and at the moment of cutting into the shadow neck, the shadow neck was like ice and snow meeting a red-burning knife, and the shadow head flew directly out of the distance.

"Oh......" The soldiers and adventurers around him shouted excitedly, and at the same time sent gifts such as spear heads and arrow feathers to the shadows.

Otherwise, it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow, and it is easy to fall into the well.

The cheers were still in his throat, and Min Jin, who had caused great damage to the shadow, was hit by the shadow and flew out, his wings were broken, a hole was made in his abdomen, and pale yellow blood splattered.

Min Zhen tried to swing his wings to maintain balance, and the unbearable pain came from his injured abdomen, and finally he had to land on his chest, rubbing his head and face on the ground fiercely, afraid that the wound would be contaminated with dust, and immediately flipped his body, but after trying hard for a long time, it was difficult to succeed.

After Min Zhen landed, the head that was cut off by the shadow quickly disappeared into a black mist and returned to the body of the shadow, and another head appeared on the neck, and the black mist of the shadow as a whole was lighter, and he galloped straight towards Min Zhen, waving his right claw, and with just one grab, this little thing would be cut into four pieces by himself.

Shadow couldn't help but secretly rejoice in his heart, fortunately, the part that was attacked was not the energy core, otherwise......

Suddenly, a blue ball appeared in the path of the clawman, and the shadow had to explode the condensed attack in advance, and the claw hand bent lightly and slashed past the surface of the ball.

The ball burst in response, spewing out a large amount of transparent liquid, quickly flattening, and the huge impact took the ball away from the shadow, and when the shadow looked again, Minzhen on the ground disappeared.

Wu Lian pushed away the soldiers, half-knelt in front of Miao Xiaodao, quickly released the analgesia and recovered, Miao Xiaodao's injuries were not serious, and under the effect of the spell, the three straight wounds slowly scarred.

The spirit on the other side, seeing that Luo Sheng had fallen, did not continue to attack to anger the shadow, and desperately grabbed Luo Sheng's armored shoulders and dragged Luo Sheng away from the shadow.

As he moved and jolted, blood kept gushing out of Luo Sheng's mouth and nose, making Lingling's face pale with fright.

"Lian, come on, come quickly! Luo can't ride anymore!"

Knowing that Min Zhen and Xiao Liang were still alive, Wu Lian hurriedly took Miao Xiaodao from behind the shadow to Luo Sheng and Lingling's side.

The shadow was in the moment of the news of the little thing, and Ye Ya's second wind blade spell made another meritorious service.

The shadow body was shaky and dimmed again, and it was hit by the spell a few more times, and it is estimated that the energy core will not be able to hold on, and once the energy core is consumed, it will disappear into the world forever.

The shadow is unwilling, he just came out of that place, there are still many things he wants to do, and the things given to him by his boss have not accomplished anything, how can he die like this?

The tall body shrank rapidly, and finally condensed into the height of an ordinary human, and the body was almost as solid as it had been at the beginning.

"Yezi, fire!" Wu Lian kept an eye on the battle situation while treating the wounded.

Minzhen's wings have fire-based attributes, and since fire-based physical attacks can cause considerable damage to Shadow, Shadow is obviously very afraid of fire.

Ye Yazhen, who had just released the wind blade, gathered pale yellow and pale cyan elves scattered in a hurry.

With Ye Ya's gesture changing and the whispers in his mouth, the pale red elves were rapidly converging.

"Effective! effective!" one soldier shouted excitedly as he was repelled by the shadows, blood still spurting from his mouth and nose.

The real flesh and blood resistance from the spear earlier made him understand that he had stabbed an entity.

"Attack!attack!" The arrow feather once again flooded the shadow, and the shadow conjured a shield to block most of the arrow feathers.

The shield just now looked very petite in the tall shadow hand, but now after the shadow is reduced, it can shrink the entire body behind the shield, and even so, it can't withstand the constant attack of arrow feathers from all directions, and the back and shoulders are constantly hit by arrows, and there are five or six arrow feathers inserted.

After many days of fighting, the human race has not been able to do anything with itself, the shadow can't help but give birth to the idea that the human being is just like this, when the red beam appears, the shadow actually has a chance to retreat, this ninth layer is enough for it to toss and turn, but the proud shadow has no idea of reconstructing the army in his heart, the only thought is to solve that thing.

But I didn't expect that spells, extraordinary humans, and small things with fire attributes ...... Under the blows again and again, the shadow had to reveal its true body, and without its transfiguration body, it could no longer rely on its external body to protect against physical attacks.

Alone in the crowd of human soldiers, he now regrets it and wants to go back.

The soldiers have paid a huge number of casualties, can he get his wish?

The shadow slammed left and right in the battle circle, and the soldiers, with the thought of death, did not let it break through as they wished.

The shadows suddenly stopped, the shields and hammers vanished, and they looked up at the growing fireball.

"Twitter......"

After a long, piercing scream, the noisy fire magic elves threw themselves down on the shadow, and the shadow seemed to accept its fate, motionless, allowing the elves to devour its body.

The surrounding soldiers held their breath, for fear that the shadow would fight to the death again.

Until the last fire-type magic spirit jumped and disappeared, and in the red light, a fist-sized bright yellow magic stone faintly shone.

The cry erupted instantly.

"The shadow is dead!

The wave of shouts gradually spread to the ninth floor, and the soldiers on the front line noticed that the ghost's will to fight in front of them suddenly became low, and the front commander immediately noticed this change and ordered the soldiers to charge.

I didn't expect the ghost who fought with them in the past to escape!

In the distance, floating bombs were also retreating.

Without the shadow leadership and organization, the monsters can no longer form combat power, posing a threat to the soldiers, and it is only a matter of time before the scattered monsters are completely wiped out.
