Chapter 363: The Beginning of the War
At this time, even Li Ran couldn't help frowning, judging from the current situation, the leader of the orc clan is obviously a good fighter, in the face of the sudden war of the frost elephant mastiff, even if he has a full advantage in numerical strength, he would rather suffer a little more casualties than launch a full-scale attack, but leave enough troops to finally be on alert, just use some of the troops that can be captured to squeeze and grind the enemy's strength bit by bit.
And the frost mastiff side is almost unable to support it at this time, if they insist on waiting until the battle between the two sides is over, then the remaining strength of the orc clan is still far above them. And if they go into battle at this time, no one can guarantee what the reaction of the Frost Mastiff will be, whether they choose to retreat or suspend the attack, Li Ran's side will be severely hit by the orc clan. In the end, whether it was the frost elephant mastiff or the orc tribe, Li Ran's only result was destruction.
For a while, Li Ran was in a dilemma, retreat was impossible, he had killed so many sentinels of the Modo tribe, I believe that soon the leader of the Modo tribe would know, and without their joining, this battle would soon come to an end, and if they could not wait for them to withdraw to the territory safely, the orc army would come to chase and kill them, and even if Li Ran and the others fled back at that time, those ballista golems and slower moving troops would definitely not be able to escape, and in the end they could only end up with the territory being captured.
Li Ran silently glanced at everyone, it seemed that he only had a gamble at the moment, hoping that the old village chief Morga's guess would not be wrong.
Five minutes later, Li Ran looked at the team that had already entered the battle state in an all-round way, and slowly pulled out his battle knife. A series of orders followed, and after a few minutes, the entire team began to move slowly. It was like a killing machine that began to slowly turn, gradually revealing its fangs.
I saw Tang Zhi leading the hunters to rush out first. Six jungle elf druids plus twenty-eight high-level hunters, amidst the singing of the three sword dancers who were guarded by Tang Zhi, they left behind the large army and rushed towards the left side of the orc tribe.
And as they continued to approach, they were also spotted in the direction of the orcs, but in the song of the sword dancer Wind Chant, these troops, who were already known for their speed, were now killed like the wind, and before the other party could react, they began to shoot with short crossbows, aiming directly at some of the outermost Modo rages.
Suddenly shot at these hunters out of nowhere, the Modo Rage was visibly angry. These warriors who were known for their brutality did not wait for the leader to give orders, and the dozen or so couldn't help but rush over, Tang Zhi saw this bow and tried to shoot two arrows in succession, the first arrow ran in the left eye of a Modo berserk in the front, and shot it through, and the second arrow shot into the neck of a Modo berserk behind him, only to see the two slowly fall.
Obviously taken aback by Tang Zhi's hand, the dozen or so Modo Rage who rushed over impulsively couldn't help but slow down, and the hunters naturally wouldn't give up this opportunity. They shot again with their bows and crossbows, and at one time two or three fell.
The remaining dozen or so didn't know what to do at this time, and the hunters were naturally even happier when they saw this, except for a few who began to set traps. The others began a new round of shooting.
The leader of the other party is really extraordinary, and at this time, he doesn't care about the dozen or so clansmen who dare not obey the order, without understanding. Instead of pursuing the enemy, he ordered a group of giant warriors and the four-headed drakemon to move forward.
After shooting a few more Modo Berserkers. The hunters' crossbow arrows were blocked by the Ankylosaurus, which was three meters tall and nearly five meters long, and the arrows fired without professional archer skills could not penetrate the skin of the Ankylosaurus at all. The Ankylosaurus only made a white mark on its body, and only a few of them happened to shoot in their faces or in vital points that they howled a few times.
However, what the leader of Moduo did not expect was that with several piercing whistles, several steel long feathers suddenly shot out from the grass behind the hunter, and it turned out that when Tang Shi rushed out, Li Ran had already ordered Ke Jiaxi to push the ballista and follow out. Stretching through the dense grass, the short Kegashi and a dozen big goblins pushed crossbows without being noticed by the other party.
The powerful range of the ballista made these steel long feathers bring a sharp whistle, and even if the leather armor of the opponent's ankylosaurus beast was thick, it was brought by the crossbow arrows that were completely hit, and one of them fell to the ground at the vital point of the front leg.
At this time, the leader of Modo in the distance couldn't help but be shocked, and the fact that he could have several ballista troops made him really worried. But seeing his warriors being attacked and unable to fight back, he had to order the first team of Modo Berserkers and those giants and ankylosaurs to launch a tentative attack.
At this moment, the sudden intervention of Li Ran's side made the warring sides a little confused, and the orcs who were in a state of battle in front of them were one of them, but the reaction of the frost elephant mastiff made Li Ran's heart happy, as the old village chief Morga expected, except for some of the frost elephant mastiffs who were still fighting, all the others were in a state of rage, still with red eyes and desperately tearing apart all the existences around that were not the same kind.
At this time, Li Ran waved his sword, and everything that followed went according to plan, according to the previous intelligence and the combat deployment of the orc troops and the frost mastiff, Li Ran knew that the leader of the other party was a person with deep tactics, and if they met on a narrow road, they would definitely be a strong enemy, but such people were often suspicious and unwilling to take risks.
So at this time, in the face of the temptation of the leader of Modo, Li Ran hurriedly ordered the spirit Kegaxi and the ballista to retreat, but he and Xia Houben rushed out with the leopard warriors and Zerilamo orcs, hoping to reduce the number of the other party as soon as possible before the leader of Modo saw their strength, and strive for a little more chance for the final decisive battle.
At this time, the hunters also began to retreat under the command of Tang Shi, and from time to time they turned around to shoot a crossbow and throw a trap. With the sword dancer's wind chanting state, their speed is much higher than that of the Modo Berserk, so they are naturally not afraid of being caught up by the other party.
And when Li Ran and Xia Houben rushed out with their troops, Wu Tongtong also started to act, followed with more than fifty middle-level archers, and threw two rounds of bows and arrows before Li Ran, Xia Houben and Moduo Rage fought.
Under the double attack of traps and bows and arrows, these hundred Modo berserkers encountered less than seventy people when they encountered the troops led by Li Ran and Xia Houben, but in the face of the enemy who rushed over with only a lot of them, these Modo berserkers were not afraid at all, and even deliberately accelerated their speed to leave behind the giant warriors who might steal the merit, as for the remaining three wounded armored dragon beasts, they had not recovered from the giant crossbow blow just now.
But this time, these Modo berserkers obviously underestimated the strength of Li Ran and the others, whether it was the leopard warriors who had been blessed by the prophet or the Zereramo orcs who were in a state, their overall strength was not below them, especially in the middle, there were top-level troops like Tulga and Borken, and even the eight blood guards of those Tulga had reached the twelfth order. What's more, there are more than twenty tenth-order hunters around, and they who have given up their short crossbows and picked up short swords are by no means the existence that Modo berserkers can settle at will.
At this moment, Xia Houben opened the Killing Realm, and the Killing Realm opened by him, who was already a top-level seeker, not only made the pressure on the other party stronger, but also much larger. At the moment of contact, the Modo berserkers were shocked, and the brutal and unscrupulous killing intent made these berserkers cold in their hands and feet, and even their actions were obviously abnormal, and their strength dropped a lot in an instant.
At this time, the Modo berserkers couldn't help but regret a little, it would be good if they waited for the giant warriors to step forward, but at this moment there was no point, facing twice as many enemies on the battlefield as they were, and the strength was far above them, this small contact battle came to an end in an instant, and the last berserker who could still stand fell to Li Ran to guard closely, at this time, under the sword of the Tucker swordsman Gilro, who had reached the tenth order, he had superior attack power and cooperated with Li Ran's other personal guard Barranca's guard Wooki in the battle, The strength played was not inferior to that of any of the fighters present, of course, the two of them had to be removed, Tulga and Borken. As a top-tier class, they had already killed more than ten people in this short battle.
There was no time to clean up the battlefield, at this time, the more than fifty giant warriors who had been late had rushed to the front, and at the same time as the ballista was launched, Li Ran led the team to meet it again, and this time the mage regiment behind him quietly came out under the leadership of Liehei.
Although these giant warriors are only about the eleventh order, they are only one order higher than the Modo berserker just now, and the number is much less, but Li Ran and the others still ushered in a bitter battle, the killing world has little impact on the giant warriors, except for the leopard leader Borken and the orc captain Tulga, who can kill them quickly, others can't inflict a fatal blow on them at all, and the opponent's seemingly simple thick trunk hits them from time to time between swings, although they won't die instantly because of the weapon, But after a while, several of them were seriously injured and fell to the ground.
