Volume 4: Swan Song (Remastered) Chapter 31: The Offensive and Defensive Battle of Nanhai Town (6)
The danger that Damar encountered on the city wall fell into the eyes of the wolf king Nandus, and the cunning werewolf king not only did not worry about his ally, but instead showed a satisfied smile on his face: "Hmph, that's it, that's it! ”
He had already seen that these orcs of the Blood Cave Clan were deliberately retaining their strength, unwilling to fight as desperately as the Dark Pine Trolls, and even did not hesitate to use the lives of their own clansmen as bargaining chips. But after all, the orc soldiers are an important part of this coalition, not only are they more numerically than werewolves and trolls combined, but they are not much inferior in terms of high-end combat effectiveness.
The reason why those trolls forced Damar to make a move in disguise just now was also under the command of Nandus, and he couldn't allow these orcs to just eat and not work. Darmar's attack was not only to increase the pressure on those humans, but also to be a decoy, even if the damn human priest didn't care about the lives of those soldiers, Nandus was confident that the other party would never let go of the opportunity to kill a hero! That could even make the difference between winning and losing this war!
What he didn't expect, however, was that while he was using Damar as bait, he would also become a sweet and tasty food in the eyes of others.
A faint white light silently enveloped the body of the wolf king Nandus, and when he reacted, he found himself bound by this white light. At the same time, Tibest and Dalton, who had quietly approached with the stealth props made by Matthew, burst into flames and rushed to the Troll High Priest and Demon Soul Hunter Tuska standing next to them as fast as they could.
The glorious charge of the Holy Shield Guard, the glorious impact of the Great Knight of Light, and the two warrior heroes are the most powerful breakthrough skills. Their mission is to cut off the minions around the wolf king Nandus in the shortest possible time, and finally combine the strength of the three of them to eliminate this damned werewolf in the shortest possible time.
The sudden appearance of the enemy made the wolf king Nandus's pair of wolves subconsciously squint, the guy with the heavy tower shield was obviously the human warrior who had been pestering him for the past few days, and the priest standing in the distance maintaining the magic that bound him was undoubtedly the leader of the humans in South Sea Town.
But who is the other knight who popped up out of nowhere? Why did the aura emanating from the other party even make me feel a trace of fear?
Out of her cunning nature, Nandus did not break free of the white light that surrounded her in the first place. In fact, although this shimmer binding is a hybrid magic that mixes the light element and the earth element, and the effect is powerful, for Nandus, who has the power of the powerful shadow, it is only a matter of taking a little more effort to break free. But the unexpected appearance of Tibest made the werewolf king choose to wait and see, with the help of those trolls, to test the strength of the other party.
The offensive and defensive battle of Nanhai Town has been carried out to this extent, and even Damar has personally gone to the front line, so Nandus and the others will naturally not have many audiences around them. In fact, apart from the three of them, only a few troll witch doctors who had previously exhausted their magic during the ritual were resting with their high priest.
Dalton, the shield guard, took the lead in using a volley shield strike, changing the last charge distance, and placing himself between Tusca and the troll witch doctors, directly separating the heroic troll and those troll spellcasters, although he didn't know who this guy who suddenly appeared was, but this did not prevent Dalton from making the most appropriate judgment. As a holy shield guard, he is naturally inferior to Tibest, the Great Knight of Light, in terms of attack power, but in terms of defense, he has absolute confidence, even if the troll hunter in front of him has legendary strength, he will not be able to break through his resistance in a short time.
Holy Assault! The Holy Flame Erupts! Radiant Wings! Without waiting for the effect of the glory impact to end, Tibest burst out three skills in a row, and a pair of short wings condensed with the power of light instantly grew on his back, making his breakthrough speed increase again, and a bright white flame suddenly erupted from the knight's long sword in his hand, which was the holy flame that Raphael had been using.
Before they could even react, the two troll witch doctors who were in Tibest's path were decapitated by the burning Flame Knight's sword, and as their heads flew up, the mighty Flame devoured their bodies like a bone appendage, burning their flesh and blood.
The instant death of the two men made the troll high priest feel a deep sense of fear, and he grabbed a witch doctor next to him and blocked it in front of him, a reddish glow coming from the palm of his neck pinch. The troll witch doctor who was held in the hands of the high priest aged rapidly, and the life force in his body was drained, and he instantly turned into a dried corpse.
“ta si la sa si lu!” After a few short syllables, a blood-colored shield appeared in front of the High Priest, and even the face of the troll witch doctor could be seen on the shield, and the blood shield that was sacrificed to a witch doctor in exchange for this blood shield was the ability given to the High Priest by the blood god Haka, and unless the attacker had more strength than Haka, it was absolutely impossible to break this blood-colored shield.
The knight's sword with the holy flame slashed at the blood-colored shield, and the power of light and blood erupted under the confrontation between them, and several troll witch doctors who were close to the two didn't even have time to shout, they were swept away by the scattered shockwave, and fell to the ground and directly entered a coma.
The full force of the blow could not even break the blood-colored shield, which made Tibest frown slightly, but he immediately gave up the urge to find out the reason, and made a wrong step, wanting to bypass this shield and attack again.
A totem staff swept over from his side, trolls are not a weak race like humans, even priests have physical qualities comparable to human elite warriors, for the troll high priest, when necessary, he can even use the totem staff in his hand to make a cameo troll berserker.
The blood in his body that had been blessed by the blood god Haka boiled, and most of the voodoo spells he mastered required special materials and rituals, which were simply useless in such a critical moment, but that didn't mean he was a lamb to be slaughtered. The blood-red spots on his body turned into bloody arrows driven by the boiling blood, shooting at Tibest.
"The remnant of the blood god Haka!" Tibest immediately saw the heels of the troll high priest, as the culprit who once destroyed half of the hills of Hillsbrad, the blood god Haka has long been known to all the forces of the human race, and this evil god who is good at using blood as a medium of power is undoubtedly at the top of the list of enemies of the Holy See of Light.
A layer of milky white holy light enveloped Tibest's body, and the Holy Shield Technique was already able to be used without chanting in Tibest's hands. Dense blood arrows struck the barrier of holy light, causing ripples, but they could not shake Tibest's progress in the slightest.
The Holy Flame Sword swung down, and the Troll High Priest, who raised his totem staff to fend off one or two, looked blankly at the weapon that had broken his hand in two, his eyes full of disbelief. A wound stretched from the top of the troll's head to his waist and abdomen, and Tybest's full force not only severed the totemic staff, which was thicker than his arm, but even split the troll high priest in half.
Tibest's own strength was certainly the main factor in this result, but the Troll High Priest's belief in his own power was also a major reason for his defeat. He didn't expect that the human knight in front of him was not just an ordinary hero-level existence, but a hero-level combat force that was about to enter the legendary realm!
Seeing that the troll high priest had become a dead man so easily, the wolf king Nandus immediately realized that this human knight who had suddenly appeared was not something he could compete with. At this moment, he regretted very much that he had let Damar leave here to participate in the attack, if the orc overseer was there, he might still be able to join forces with him to fight this terrible human knight, but now, he was faced with only one choice, and that was to escape!
"Despicable humans! Is this how you carry out the so-called belief in light? "While secretly gathering strength, while speaking out to provoke the other party, the wolf king Nandus is not a reckless man, he is far more cunning than the most cunning werewolf, and the most ruthless werewolf is more ruthless, otherwise how could he become the king of the shadow werewolves!
Tadrar, who had always maintained his skills, said indifferently: "The way of light is naturally used to entertain guests, you demons, you are not qualified to enjoy this grace!" ”
The countless years of war in the world of Entagre have long deprived those idealists of the soil for survival, and almost no one will be naïve enough to think that this war-torn land can be purified by so-called selflessness and dedication. As a priest of the Holy See of Light, Tadelar will use selflessness and sincerity to face those who also seek light, and will also use shamelessness and meanness to deal with those who seek to harm innocent enemies.
"Suffer death, werewolf!" A pious priest like Tadrar knew this, not to mention Tibest, who often fought against all sorts of enemies, and after slashing the troll high priest with a single sword, the Grand Knight of Light didn't even glance at the body that had been split in half, and turned around and attacked the wolf king Nandus.
"Roar!" With a wild roar, the power of the shadows tore through the faint white light that wrapped around his body, and the wolf king, who had regained his freedom, responded to Tibest with a powerful claw swing. The wolf's claws with the power of purple shadows are completely harmless to humans and animals, and if you are hit by such a thing, I am afraid that it is just a dream that exists in fantasy!
The Holy Flame Sword and the Shadow Wolf Claw clashed in mid-air, obviously a wolf claw made of flesh and bone, but it had a strength comparable to steel, and the sharp knight's sword couldn't even leave a single scar on it, only a small handful of wolf hair was burned by the Holy Flame and turned into charcoal.
"Arrogant human, your Light is nothing in the face of the Shadows!" The shadow power that continued to pour out of his body allowed the wolf king Nandus to regain the physique of a shadow creature in a short period of time, and at this time he completely abandoned his body and used the purest shadow power to form the shell of his existence in this world.
Tadelal waved his hand and threw out another skill, it was the Holy Light Cage used by Raphael, the advantage of the Shimmer Binding was that it was not easy to be detected, but now there was no need to act covertly, so it was natural to use a skill with better results.
At the same time, a holy light shelter was brushed on Dalton's body by Tadrar. Don't underestimate a great priest, for Tadelal, who has been immersed in the power of light for decades, most light spells can be instantaneous without chanting.
Dalton, who raised his shield to keep Tusca firmly on the side, immediately changed his previous defensive fighting style after receiving support, and through a few short encounters just now, he had determined that the strange-looking troll in front of him was no stronger than the wolf king Nandus, which meant that his life was no longer in danger. But Dalton, who has been raised as an Aegis guard since childhood, knows his duty very well, and his mission is not to kill any enemy, but to keep no one from disturbing Tibest and Tadrar as they destroy the werewolf!
He had long since passed the age of competitiveness, and the reason why Dalton, who was now in his forties, was entrusted by Cardinal Meradele with the task of supporting the expeditionary force was because of his cautious and cautious character.
Before the Holy Light Cage could touch the body of the Wolf King Nandus, it was dissipated by the power of the shadows surging on the surface of his body. As Nandus had said, the power of the Light they used was no match for the shadow power he possessed, and the two sides were completely different in quality. Tadrar and they only use the Light as a power they control, but now Nandus has become one with the Shadow, he is the Shadow, and the Shadow is him!
Seeing this, Tibst also realized that he could no longer spare his strength, and he wanted to use the advantage of the surprise attack to clean up this damn werewolf with minimal effort, and then rush back to support the battle on the other side of the wall. Damar's burst of aura was sensed by Tibest from the very beginning, and he didn't have to look at it to think that there must be a lot of mourning on the other side of the city wall now, and if you want to rely on those ordinary soldiers to resist a hero-level existence, you must pay an extremely heavy price!
But the strength of the wolf king Nandus exceeded his expectations, he didn't expect that the werewolf in front of him actually had the same strength as him, especially since the other party had now completely turned into a shadow creature, which made it difficult for their holy light to pose enough threat to the wolf king Nandus.
He was not one to hesitate, and once he made up his mind, Tibest immediately put aside his worries about Southsea Town. The aura that surged again made the holy flame on the knight's sword burn even more violently, and the surface of his body began to appear with a milky white light, and the whole person seemed to have turned into a collection of holy light.
"Don't think you're the only one who gets the recognition of the source of power!" Tibbest, who had almost transformed into a humanoid holy light, jumped high, and the knight's sword in his hand seemed to have turned into a holy sword for judging evil, slashing from the head.
The wolf king Nandus's eyes swelled with rolling shadows, he sensed mortal danger from the knight's sword, and in the face of Tibest's blow, which gathered all his strength, the werewolf opened his mouth and spewed a beam of energy from the power of darkness at Tibest, who was leaping high.
The Shadow Energy Beam confronted the Holy Flame Sword in the air for less than a second before falling into disadvantage. The sharp knight's sword whistled through the lilac space dyed by the power of the shadows and slashed at the head of the wolf king Nandus, and the fierce flames enveloped the werewolf's body, turning it into a pile of ashes in the wail of the wolf king Nandus.
On the other side, Tusca realized the outcome of the battle when Tibest burst out with all his strength, and the demon hunter wisely chose to escape, desperately being attacked by Tadrar and Dalton several times, paying the price of half an arm, and successfully escaping the battlefield.
"Success?" Looking at the pile of ashes, Tadrar gasped and asked, don't look at the way he lifted his weight just now, in fact, using a large number of high-level light spells in such a short period of time still made the not-so-young archpriest feel obviously tired.
"No, he ran away! I didn't expect this werewolf to be so decisive! I'm afraid he had already made that decision when I killed that troll! ”
"And who was burned to death by the Holy Flame just now?"
"A puppet created with the power of shadows, or a makeshift shell!" Tibest flipped over the pile of ashes on the ground with his knight's sword, "However, in order to hide from my eyes, that werewolf left most of his strength in this shell, and he himself probably tore open a spatial rift and escaped back to the shadow plane under the cover of the shadow energy just now." ”
"What a pity!"
"Now is not the time to say this! Hurry back! I'm worried about Raphael's side! ”
