Chapter 259: Repelling the Basilisk

Vane turned his attention back to the battlefield again, and the battlefield was now much different from what it had just been.

In addition to some of the enemies engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the paladins on the front, there were also a large number of enemies concentrated in the back and constantly attacking the paladin's defensive line with fire spells.

These fire spells are enhanced by the surrounding environment, and their power is about one-third greater than normal. If you are usually hit by a fire spell of this power, it will definitely be a life-threatening ending.

Unfortunately, however, the paladins in front were wearing fire resistant armor captured from the Black Iron Dwarves, and the power of these fire spells was immediately reduced by two-thirds. In addition, to fight in the heart of the molten fire, the fire protection spells have also been blessed by the paladins early on.

Therefore, although the damage of these fire spells is still not small, they have not reached the level of lethality in one hit. Since there was no fatal blow, after the flash of the holy light, it immediately became entangled with the enemy again.

In the face of their own side's invincible tactics, they failed to achieve results this time, and for a while, the monster snake creature didn't know how to deal with this situation.

The Snake didn't know what to do, but the Coalition didn't care what they were doing. The Griffon Knight rises into the air before the opponent begins to attack with spells, attacking the enemy's rear caster. Although they can't steer flexibly in the air, the air flow of the cave ** also makes the griffons very uncomfortable. However, it still caused a certain disruptive effect on the enemy's rear.

The griffin knights struck in the air, and the gnome mages were busy assembling engineering weapons after blessing the paladins with fire protection spells. However, this does not mean that the coalition forces do not have long-range attack capabilities. At the rear of the defensive line, on top of the improvised high platform, the machine guns captured from the Black Iron Dwarves opened fire. The Snake troops assembled in the distance were strafed by machine gun fire and fell one by one, suffering extremely heavy casualties.

Even with such heavy casualties and battle damage ratios, the strange snake still launched an endless assault in the direction of the coalition forces.

To Vane's strange part, there was not a single corpse of a strange snake on the battlefield. Wayne hadn't noticed this when he left just now, but now that he found out, he couldn't help but wonder if what they were facing was an illusion.

Immediately shook his head, this is impossible, you know, Vane has been making magic items for a long time, and has always made constant spell effect items, among which there is a necklace that Vane has made after reaching the level of nine rings, and this necklace has a very powerful constant spell: the Eye of Truth.

Under the effect of the True Eye, nothing can deceive Vane. So as soon as Vane thought of this, he immediately shook his head and denied his own thoughts.

"Quick, get on the bullet." When Vane found Walker, Walker was shooting with a machine gun in his own hands.

"Hey, Walker." Vane shouted at Walker under the high platform.

"Oh, Vane, didn't you go to the mage's side to help? How did you come back so soon. Walker saw that it was Vane calling him, so he gave way to the dwarf next to him and came down from the high platform.

"The weapons have been assembled and they are making final preparations for launch." Vane answered Walker's question before asking, "Those strange snakes must have died a lot during this time." Why can't I see their bodies? ”

"You say this, we were surprised at first, but if you look closely, you will find that once these strange snakes die, their corpses will disappear like those fire elementals." Walker jumped down from the platform and explained to Vane: "At first, we thought it was a hallucination, but after asking the master craftsman, we found out that it was not a hallucination, these strange snakes were full of fire elementals, and once they died, the fire elemental would drift away, leaving only a corpse that looked like a shriveled skin. ”

"I see." According to Walker's prompt, Vane carefully observed the situation on the battlefield, and found that it was indeed according to Walker's words, the corpses of those dead basilisks would burn, and then only a piece of what appeared to be skin would remain, and finally these things would turn to ashes and disappear.

While Vane was observing the basilisk's corpse, the master craftsman's deputy ran over. As soon as they met, he shouted to Walker: "Get those guys flying in the sky back, we're about to fire artillery attacks." ”

As soon as Walker heard the gnome's words, he immediately told the herald to blow the horn. This is a directive withdrawn by the Air Force.

With the horn blowing, the Air Force left the head of the enemy. Then, in the basilisk's confusion, the earth-shattering cannon fire fell on their ranks. Violent explosions rang out continuously, and stumps and severed arms flew in all directions. The fire elemental, which had not had time to dissipate, formed a raging fire on top of the numerous fragments of corpses, and burned. In just a few seconds, the Snake Troop vanished in large chunks, as if someone had scooped a piece of jelly out of it.

This terrifying artillery bombardment made the battlefield suddenly silent, and the basilisks had never been attacked so terrifyingly. For a while, the crow looked at the attacked place silently, and couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.

Although the basilisk could not come to his senses, the gnomes did not have this problem, and after reloading, the deputy of the master craftsman commanded in a loud voice: "The artillery extends the fire." ”

Suddenly, the terrifying cannonballs rained down again and stretched into the distance. In a matter of minutes, the basilisk that had originally possessed an absolute number became extremely thin under this blow.

"Roaring ————!" It was only then that a loud roar belated, and the sparse basilisk quickly fled the battlefield as if relieved, disappearing around the corner of the cave in the distance.

After the battle, the dwarves counted the losses, and the dwarves were okay, only losing about a hundred paladins. The loss of humanity was very large, and the death of two hundred paladins was to the extent of breaking bones and bones all at once. You must know that there are only more than 1,000 paladins in the Kingdom of Azeroth now, and although they didn't bring all of them this time, they also brought about half of them. More than two hundred were lost in this battle, and the anxious human king's eyes were red, if it weren't for the paladin's beliefs and precepts, he really wanted to quit the alliance immediately and go home.

Fortunately, for the situation of the Azeroth Kingdom, the dwarves and gnomes are very clear that the losses of the Azeroth Kingdom in this battle are indeed very heavy. Therefore, after discussion, it was unanimously decided that the remaining paladins of the human race would no longer be used as a combat unit as a logistical medical unit.
