Chapter 219: Engagement

Where did such a violent elf come from?!

Don't...... Is it here to rescue a companion?

How did they know the whereabouts of the mercenary group?

How many people did they come? Is the black dragon there?

In a matter of seconds, several thoughts flashed through the crocodile's mind, and cold sweat broke out on his back......

The elves that appear are naturally the players.

More precisely, the fastest Crypt Spider Troopers.

There are about two hundred Crypt Spider Cavalry.

They were independently separated from a team by Li Mu and handed over to the individual command of fried tomatoes with tomatoes, who were good at small team operations.

In the team, there are about forty elven archers, sixty elven mages, twenty elven druids, and more than ninety elven hunters and warriors.

Archers, Mages, and Druids all have ranged attacks.

And the hunter and the warrior were also given a dwarf steam gun that had been transformed by the Meng Meng Committee......

Steam Gun attacks are notoriously difficult to attach, and Marksman players' skills are all aimed at bows and arrows, so their weapons are still bows and arrows, while Steam Guns are used by warriors and hunters who can't fight far away.

It can be said that after the warriors and hunters are equipped with steam guns, these more than 200 players have a certain amount of long-range killing ability.

Under Li Mu's order, Fried Tomatoes with Tomatoes and the Crypt Spider Cavalry caught up with the mercenary group first, and launched a blockade and harassment against them......

I saw them riding a hideous big spider, screaming and rushing towards the camp of the crocodile mercenary group, like a group of bandits and mad dogs who came down the mountain to plunder.

In the middle of the charge, those with the longbow raised their longbows again, the staff wielded the spell, and the swordsman raised their thick and bulky dwarven steam guns again......

With a series of loud bangs, several more mercenaries fell to the ground, and then dozens of arrows flew in, followed by offensive magic, fireballs, wind blades, ice picks...... It's all around in the blink of an eye.

Screams rang out one after another, and a dozen more mercenaries were drowned in a rain of arrows and magic.

In less than a minute from the time the players launched a surprise attack, nearly fifty mercenaries were killed around the camp!

This sudden attack immediately stunned the mercenaries, and the edge of the camp instantly fell into chaos.

Seeing the panicked mercenaries and excellent results, the momentum of the players instantly rose:

"Haha! Good dish mob! ”

"10,000 points of experience! I shot a mercenary to death, and I gained 10,000 XP points at once! ”

"! Too rich! ”

The ranged players became excited, and their eyes on the mercenaries changed.

That burning gaze even made the outermost mercenaries shudder.

However, melee players who used the Steam Gun were a little frustrated:

"It's a pity...... I'm a warrior, this steam gun has no skills to attach to, and I can't eat experience when I kill people......"

The effects of War Rites are attached to abilities and close attacks.

Sword slashes, magic attacks, and even arrows from the shooter player with skill support can all contribute to experience.

But if you rely solely on tools, you won't be able to trigger this effect.

For example, the lunch squad, which used dynamite to kill the Crypt Spider, and the Warrior and Hunter players who now use Steam Guns, have no experience while killing their targets.

"Don't panic! There will be a chance for you to fight in close combat in a while, listen to the command first, and continue to rush! ”

Fried Tomatoes with Tomatoes comforts melee players as they lead the Crypt Spider Cavalry towards the mercenaries again......

The player's first wave of raids inflicted heavy damage on the crocodile mercenary group.

Fifty mercenaries were killed, which was already one-twentieth of the number......

However, the loud roar also caused the crocodile to react from its distraction.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw more than two hundred elven spider jockeys rushing out, and there was no other elf support to follow.

It's just that more than 200 elves riding strange spiders are not taken seriously by crocodiles!

I saw him snort coldly and shouted:

"Steady! Don't mess around! There are not many people on the other side! ”

"It's the elven archer and the elven mage! They've even got the dwarven steam guns! ”

"Shields and spears! Form a shield wall defense formation! Mage, apply magic to the shield wall! Protect the camp! Don't let those spiders rush in! ”

Under the orders of the regimental commander, the mercenaries quickly regained their composure.

Obeying the crocodile's command, they hurriedly raised their shields to form a shield wall, and stabbed spears through the cracks to prevent the crypt spiders from approaching.

A small number of human mages hurriedly chanted incantations to apply magical shields to the shield wall.

The charging player attacks again.

The Warrior and Hunter players pulled the trigger of the Steam Gun, and the loud roar was heard again......

Only this time, the mercenaries were already prepared.

The steel bullets fired from the steam guns were instantaneous, and the shield wall raised by the mercenaries trembled slightly, and the magic shields on them flickered......

This time, the player's attack didn't even penetrate the magic shield, and only dropped metal balls on the ground......

In the world of Seggus, the Magic Shield is the most effective defense against kinetic weapons that are not spell-attached.

As a result, when the mercenaries have magic shields, the steam guns in the player's hands lose their deterrent power.

And looking at the ineffective attack, players can't help but curse:

"Rub! Even if this gun is transformed, the attack power is too watery! ”

"No wonder the dwarves' steam guns have been eliminated, and when they encounter magic, they are cold......"

"Do you want to charge?"

"Don't rush in close combat! Change shooters! We also have mages and druids! ”

Fried tomatoes with tomatoes roared angrily and gave a new order.

Hearing the team's command, the archer player riding the crypt spider raised his bow and arrow, and with the help of his skill, shot a magic arrow.

At the same time, the mage and druid players hurriedly chanted the spell again.

The arrows with the skill flew again, but they only pierced the magic shield and shot into the shield under the effect of the skill, but they could no longer go a little deeper......

However, the magic that followed caused some damage to the mercenaries.

It's just that, with the resistance of magic shields and shields, only a few lightly injured people appeared among the mercenaries.

For players in the middle of Black Iron, the attack power of ranged skills is still limited......

As a result, the surprise sneak attack effect was lost, and after the mercenaries began to take targeted countermeasures, the players' attacks were instantly frustrated.

And seeing the frustration of the players' offensive, the crocodile's eyes lit up:

"The shield wall is well defended! The magic is maintained! Their attack power is limited and they don't have many people! Surround them! Get them! ”

With an order, the mercenaries, who had recovered their morale, hurriedly held up the shield wall and outflanked the players.

Seeing that the mercenaries wanted to surround the player, Fried Tomatoes shouted in Elven language:

"Cancel the charge! Disperse! Guerrilla left and right! Harassment is the mainstay! Drag on time! ”

After he gave the order, the players changed their route in an instant.

Instead of charging at the mercenaries, they avoided the shield wall and moved to the sides of the camp, occasionally shooting arrows, guns, or fireballs into the camp.

They don't seek to kill, but they only want to mess things up.

After the players changed their tactics, although they did not cause much damage to the mercenaries, they once again restrained the mercenaries' actions.

More than 200 crypt spider knights, like a group of steppe archers fighting guerrillas, circled around the mercenary camp, swimming and shooting as they went.

And the occasional fireball thrown into the camp and ignited the cargo made the mercenaries even more commotion.

Looking at several wagons that were set ablaze by fireballs, the crocodile's eyes were red:

"Bastard!"

Those goods are all treasures that he worked so hard to buy from the Iris Kingdom! Need to resell to the Empire!

"Hurry up and put out the fire! Keep in shape, the guards follow me! Catch those elves! ”

He commanded angrily.

As soon as the crocodile gave the order, the mercenaries in the camp began to hurriedly extinguish the fire, the mercenaries on the outside still maintained the formation, and dozens of mercenaries who had reached the top of the black iron followed him and rushed out with him, directly attacking the elves......

It's just that...... The crocodile underestimated the speed of the Crypt Spider's movement.

After signing a contract with the player, the speed of these large crypt spiders is faintly faster, and the mage and druid players also add the continuous magic of [Light Body Technique] to everyone, and the mercenaries can't catch up at all.

Only crocodiles, whose strength has reached the silver median, can keep up with the speed of the players.

However, whenever he rushes out, the players will set fire on him and bypass him from a distance, although they can't do him damage, but they limit his pursuit.

"Why are these elves so cunning?!"

The crocodile's face was very ugly.

However, although the mercenaries could not catch up with the elves, the elves were also unable to rush into the mercenary camp, and even the kills against the mercenaries were almost ineffective under the mercenaries' defenses.

Situation...... There was a stalemate.

But even so, the elves did not give up the attack, and still circled the camp, wandering and harassing, and did not seem to be in a hurry to rescue their companions......

And after noticing this fact, the crocodile's face finally changed.

He suddenly realized a problem:

"These elves ...... Not to save people, but to stall for time! ”

"They...... I'm afraid there are reinforcements! It's very likely that it is waiting for that black dragon! ”

For a moment, the crocodile's face turned pale.

He gritted his teeth and yelled:

"Don't get tangled with them anymore! Maintain formation, let's go! ”

However, as soon as he had given the order, a faint shout came from the direction of the trade route to the south......

The crocodile was shocked and subconsciously looked over.

Accompanied by bursts of flying dust, densely packed with heavily armed elves formed a tight formation and appeared in the sight of the mercenaries.

As far as the eye can see, there are so many that there are no less than thousands!

"So many elves?!"

Looking at the exaggerated amount, the crocodile was dumbfounded.

But that's not the end of it......

When the members of the mercenary group were shocked by the elven army that suddenly appeared in view, and there was a faint commotion......

In the sky, there was a loud dragon groan.

The most terrifying thing for a crocodile happened.

A hideous black dragon, waving its huge wings, appeared in the mercenary's field of vision......

“RUA! Evil humans! You've taken Merrell's family! There has to be a terrible price to pay for this! ”

Its loud and excited voice resounded in the air.

For a while, the crocodile's mood fell to the bottom......
