Chapter 220: The Great Rout!
When the army of well-armed "elves" burst into view, the mercenaries were in a commotion......
No one expected that the attack of more than two hundred elves was just the beginning, and that there were many more to come.
And...... There are so many people on the other side!
At least a thousand elves rushed in, well-equipped and morale-high......
The spectacular scene shocked the mercenaries' hearts, but at the same time they were incredulous, feeling like they were in a dream.
As a medium-sized mercenary group roaming the border, the crocodile mercenary group is not without contact with large-scale battles, they have once crusaded against a thousand-strong bandit group, and they have also been hired by the imperial nobles to participate in the pacification of the imperial rebels......
But...... Whether it is a group of thieves or a human army, the shock brought to them is far less than the scene in front of them.
Genie!
This is an elf!
Not human! Not even an orc!
On weekdays, they may not be able to see elves once in many years, and even say that many mercenaries only saw this legendary noble and beautiful creature for the first time yesterday......
However, the experience of these two days has been an eye-opener for them.
The more than fifty elves captured in yesterday's sneak attack have already shocked and surprised the mercenaries enough......
But I didn't expect to see more today!
On the not wide trade route, the elves are densely packed with no end in sight, and even their tall figures can be seen in the dense forests on both sides......
The mercenaries judged from experience that the number of these elves was ...... I'm afraid it's more than my own mercenary group!
The Lord of Eternity is above, is this all the elves of the world gathered?
When did the elves get so bad?
Of course, the appearance of the elven legion only made the mercenaries slightly commotion, but it was not to say that they were afraid.
After all...... Although the number of elves seems to be large, the number of mercenaries is also quite large.
Not only that, although these elves have a vague formation, they are obviously much more chaotic than the mercenaries, not so much an army, but more like the chaotic bandits who came down the mountain to raid in the memories of the mercenaries......
In contrast, although the crocodile mercenary group is barely a mercenary at best, it also has the cooperation of no weaker than the professional army, and has the most basic organization of the army.
Gennies, on the other hand, are different.
Although they have a formation, it is obvious that it is only a temporary patchwork, and it is very chaotic.
And this chaos reached a climax when I saw the mercenaries.
It can be said that the image of these elves ...... It is completely different from the noble elegance of the legend.
It's just that the mercenaries don't have the heart to think about it anymore......
Because, not long after the elven legion appeared, a loud dragon groan came.
"Black ...... Black Dragon! It's a black dragon! ”
Seeing the hideous black shadow in the sky, the mercenary group instantly fell into panic and their morale plummeted.
Dragon!
As the most legendary golden race in the world of Seggs, the legend of the dragon can be found all over the world.
As the most vicious and powerful dragon species among the dragons, the black dragon has always been the typical representative of the evil dragon in the story.
It can be said that naturally, humans are afraid of black dragons......
Not to mention, the mercenaries all know that their leader just led a wave of people to attack the black dragon's lair yesterday, and he hurried today to get rid of possible revenge.
And obviously...... They were chased by the black dragon, and the other party came to take revenge!
If it is said that only the elves arrived, then although their hearts were shocked, the mercenaries were not without the confidence to fight.
If only the black dragon arrived, then the mercenaries would be frightened, but at least they would be able to put up an organized resistance.
However, when both of them appeared at the same time, they had completely surpassed the bottom line of the mercenaries' psychological tolerance.
In the face of a battle that is bound to lose or even die, unless there is a firm conviction, no one will be sent to death.
In the crocodile's dull gaze, he saw that before the elves rushed over, the formation of his own mercenaries who had been training for several years faintly began to waver, and there were some signs of collapse!
A mercenary is a mercenary in the end.
And the crocodile mercenary group is not one of those well-known legendary mercenary groups.
Even if they have a certain degree of organization, they do not have the discipline of an army.
Tailwind fighting is their forte, but it's normal to waver and rout when faced with an enemy that is clearly impossible to fight.
It is in this wavering ...... The two sides engaged.
Unlike the mercenaries who have lost their guts......
Listen to the dragon chant overhead, accompanied by the uplifting BGM, and watch those crypt spider jockeys in the team's chat channel show off their enviable experience point income...... The players who rushed up were already completely crazy.
These mercenaries ...... Huge amount of experience!
Head!
Be sure to take a few more heads!
Players are red-eyed and morale is at an all-time high!
They wielded their swords and screamed like a pack of crazy hungry wolves, chasing their prey and rushing towards the mercenaries!
The formation is completely out of order.
But the morale exploded!
The players who went forward and succeeded, like a torrent, instantly broke through the formation that the mercenaries had already shaken!
The mercenaries, on the other hand, lost their fighting spirit under the double pressure of the black dragons and elves......
The shield wall, which was originally impregnable under the siege of more than 200 spider cavalry, is now like paper paste, and it is destroyed by players in an instant!
The mercenaries only saw these elves rushing in desperately, their skills were wildly released, and when they caught a person, they would slash indiscriminately, and they would not stop if they didn't hack to death!
Blood splattered and splattered on the elves' faces, while they had bloodthirsty smirks on their faces, as if enjoying a killing......
That kind of madness, that kind of fearlessness, makes the mercenaries who are used to killing can't help but be afraid.
"Crazy...... They're crazy! ”
Finally, there are mercenaries who collapse.
He let go of his shield and turned to flee......
With the first to escape, there was soon a second.
Gradually, with the onslaught of the elves, the entire crocodile mercenary group began to rout!
The rout further exacerbated the confusion of the mercenary formation.
Soon, half of the mercenaries turned around, abandoned their armor, and fled behind them......
Defeat at the touch of a button, nothing more than this!
The crocodile looked at his legion, which had been defeated in an instant, and was dumbfounded.
However, this is not the end of the story.
Seeing the mercenaries begin to run away without their armor, exposing their backs to themselves, the morale of the players suddenly rose to a new level.
"They're running away! Catch up! Kill them! ”
Li Mu ordered excitedly.
And the players in the front row also screamed and chased after them......
Leaving your back to the enemy is the most stupid thing to do.
Throwing away armor is even more stupidity among stupidity!
The agility of the elves is already high, and many of them have deliberately changed into [Acceleration] shoes.
Therefore, even if they threw their weapons, the mercenaries did not escape far.
They were quickly chased by the players behind them, and they were cut down like melons and vegetables!
And the equipment that they threw down was picked up by the players who caught up behind and carried on their backs.
The whole battle scene took a sharp turn, from a rout on one side to a one-sided massacre!
Under the impact of the players, the mercenary group has completely collapsed, and almost all of them have lost their fighting spirit and began to flee in all directions!
And at this time, the Crypt Spider Cavalry on the periphery moved again.
I saw that they began to wander around the periphery, chasing and intercepting the mercenaries, specifically chasing and killing those mercenaries who had fled......
The crocodile stared blankly at the scene in front of him, and his heart was cold.
Even if he has the strength of the silver median, he can't change the reality of the fiasco.
No......
This is no longer a fiasco.
If you don't get it right, the crocodile mercenary group is likely to be wiped out here today!
Those elves...... How can you be so cruel?!
The crocodile clearly saw that it was not that no mercenaries chose to surrender, but even if they did, they were greeted with only laughter and slaughter from the elves!
"Captain! Let's run! The black dragon hasn't shot yet, and we still have hope! ”
At this time, several cronies rushed over and said with a pale face.
And listening to the words of his cronies, the crocodile's mouth became more and more bitter.
That's right, Black Dragon...... Haven't shot yet!
It just hovered in the sky, crushing the elves.
However, it's just these elves...... It has already defeated the team that the crocodile has worked hard to pull up for many years!
For a moment, his heart became colder and colder.
At this time, the crocodile's heart was extremely remorseful, why did he have to be greedy, why did he attack the Black Dragon Castle, why did he capture those damn elves!
But...... It's late!
The crocodile's hands trembled slightly, he gritted his teeth, and said with red eyes:
"With those captured elves as hostages, let's break out!"
The black dragon is very powerful, and it is not at all something that a crocodile can fight against.
And his only hole card, the teleportation magic scroll of the seven rings, was also used by him yesterday.
Fleeing alone, I'm afraid he won't be able to escape the pursuit of the black dragon...... And those elves who were arrested were his last reliance!
In order to rescue his dependents, the black dragon actually dispatched so many elves, which shows that it attaches great importance to these elves who were captured by itself!
And this ...... It may be the only way for the entire mercenary group to survive!
After speaking, the crocodile took his cronies and returned to the place where the elves were imprisoned in embarrassment.
Under the orders of the crocodile, the mercenaries pulled out more than fifty elves who had been bound by the forbidden demon rope and gathered together.
And the crocodile himself picked a female elf who looked the most ornately equipped and should have the highest status, and put the long sword in her hand on the opponent's neck......
Then, with red eyes, the crocodile mustered up the strength of his whole body, and shouted to the black dragon in the sky:
"Black Dragon! If you want to save your dependents, stop your elves! ”
"Otherwise, even if we die, we will pull your dependents...... Let them give us a burial! ”
