A baker's dozen
The enemy's spell queue consisted of about sixty mages, as well as two squadrons of minotaurs, and Guderian was less than three hundred meters away from them. When the enemy spotted the human cavalry charging, the minotaurs brandished their huge weapons and roared back towards Guderian and his party. The huge weapon was a cylindrical piece of wood, painted with various totems. And only the Minotaur and other strange power classes of more than 2.5 meters use this kind of weapon that is almost the size of a basin and is about the same height as them. With such a huge weapon, Guderian believed that as long as it was hit, there was absolutely no chance of survival.
"Spread out left and right, go around and get straight to the spell queue!" shouted Guderian. The cavalry quickly split into two parts and abruptly parted when they were about thirty meters away from the charging minotaur ranks. Guderian to the left.
However, as the minotaurs charged, the horde formation of the gnomes and drow was charging several circles. These circles were the source of the countless fireballs that had just been inspired to fly towards the human ranks. They didn't seem to be worried about the charge of the human cavalry.
Yes, there really is no need to worry. As the human cavalry split and circled the Minotaur queue, the circles glowed brightly, and countless fireballs generated from the sky above the circles, and then rushed towards the human cavalry under the guidance of the mages. The minotaurs quickly turned around and charged at the human cavalry again. At this time, the distance between the human cavalry and the enemy's spell queue was less than fifty meters. This has almost become a moat.
"Queue sideways!" Guderian yelled at the parted cavalry on the other side. At the same time, the horse turned to the left, and the cavalry team that followed immediately moved away from the enemy's spell queue. Guderian's high-pitched roar penetrated a distance of more than two hundred meters, and the cavalry on the other side quickly moved sideways to the right. After the human cavalry shifted position, the fireballs exploded in their path, sparks flying in their tracks. Also because of this, the path pursued by the minotaurs was blocked.
Guderian and his party did not slow down, and after moving sideways, they rushed forward and turned right to continue to attack the enemy's magic queue. From the charge around the minotaurs, it looks like an S-shaped route.
The enemy's circle ignited the first wave of fireballs, and then the second wave. But it seems that the target is not Guderian and his party, but Rogris behind Guderian. Guderian was about three hundred meters away from the battlefield of Rogris at this time. Rollris's cavalry had already crossed the wolf rider three times, and was preparing to charge again. The duel between cavalry and cavalry, unless the field is limited, is nothing but charging or charging. And if the enemy's mage troops were allowed to activate the circle infinitely, it would be a nightmare for the Rogrith cavalry troops.
Therefore, Guderian and his entourage moved forward this time. "Change your bow, target, mage!" Guderian once again shook his blood and let out a roar even higher than before, so that his lungs almost exploded. The sound pierced the battlefield. As a result, I saw that the human cavalry charging on the left and right sides of the enemy was about thirty or forty meters away from the enemy's magic circle, and hundreds of feathered arrows rushed straight into the enemy's mage ranks, and then the cavalry turned around again. This stunned the minotaurs, who were already ready to receive the impact.
For feather arrows, the mages are not afraid, since they dare to appear on the battlefield, the physical penetration defense spell must be memorized. Therefore, this wave of feathered arrows did not cause damage to the enemy. However, this also interrupted the guidance of the enemy mage team, so the fireballs that flew towards Logris's team exploded before they reached their intended position, and the sky was full of fireworks that lit up the enemy's angry eyes.
Guderian and his party did not cherish the horsepower, and once again circled back and charged again, using the speed of the horse to exert greater speed and penetration on the feathered arrows they shot. As a result, although Guderian and his party were unable to kill any of the enemies, the enemy's spell queue was also delayed. In the same way, the defensive spells of their memories are being consumed. You know, even if it's an archmage, there aren't enough spell slots.
Every mage needs to use his spiritual power to engrave a spell model in his soul in order to be instantaneous. Otherwise, you need the assistance of magic items and the guidance of various mudras to construct a spell to cast out, so that even if the archmage casts a large fireball technique with only three rings, there is no way to shorten the casting time to less than five seconds. Only by imprinting the spell model in the soul can it be instantaneous when fighting. And how much can be engraved depends on the strength of the mage's soul and spiritual power. That's the spell bit. Often, the mages of the first to third rings belong to the low-level mages, the mages of the fourth to sixth rings belong to the intermediate level, the seventh to the ninth rings are the high-level, and the existence beyond the nine rings is the great mage. This is just the rank, and many times, the strength of the mages below the archmage does not depend on the level of the rank. Wealth and knowledge are the key. For example, a little mage with three rings, as long as he has enough magic items and a sufficient understanding of medium and high-level spells, even if he is not promoted because of his mental power, he will also have the possibility of fighting in the face of even a mage with six rings and seven rings.
For the harassment of Guderian and his party, the enemy could only grit his teeth. The circle was activated, and Guderian and his party fled, and the speed of the Minotaur team could not keep up with the galloping horses. If ignored, the mages will have zero support for the main battlefield due to the interference of feather arrows.
And, without the support and suppression of the enemy's spell queue, on the main battlefield of the human race, the human mage group can finally draw their hands to attack the enemy, instead of just holding up the protective shield. It's just that high-end combat power, such as Douglas and Archmage Martin, are all held back by the enemy's high-end combat power. The team of orc prophets and shamans who have disappeared are fighting against these two human archmages. They wandered and fought each other on the edge of the battlefield, when the lightning that lit up the night sky and the roaring explosions that pierced the battlefield showed that their battle was going on.
In the same way, these generals, such as Wharton or Rommel, were also pinned down by the enemy's strong men. There are strong people in human beings, and there are strong people in the enemy, not to mention that they are united with the underground races, and the number of strong people is several more than that of humans. For example, at this time, the mage queue and the minotaur queue of the enemies who were helpless against Guderian and his party sent a signal to attract reinforcements.
A mage shrouded in a black hood and cloak.
Guderian they stopped wandering and joined up with another line of cavalry that had separated. There were no losses and no gains. Of course, just pinning down the enemy's mage team is the biggest gain. In addition, because of the wandering and harassment of Guderian and his party, the enemy's mage team spell slots were almost exhausted, and at the same time, the stimulation and guidance of the magic circle were counterattacked, and at least half of the mages could no longer participate in the activation and guidance of the magic circle in a short period of time.
The man who came stood in front of the Minotaur formation, and the distance between him and Guderian was only seventy or eighty meters. Guderian ordered the cavalry to retreat and join General Rogris. With the presence of minotaurs, there is no way to kill the enemy's mage queue. It's not cost-effective to fight hard with the minotaur.
The spiritual power of the person who came locked on Guderian, and Guderian did not dare to turn the horse's head at all. Guderian believed that if he slackened a little, he would inevitably face a terrible blow. So, the cavalry left, and although they wondered why Guderian did not go, they firmly carried out the order. This is a battlefield, and there is no room for recklessness.
"I didn't expect that there are so many strong people among human beings. The hoarse voice of the visitor spoke a lingua franca.
"Who is Your Excellency?"
