Volume 5: The Elegant Tea Party (Remastered) Chapter 14: The Battle of the Shadowfang (4)

When the third wave of elite soldiers, led by Dalton, climbed the city walls, the battle looked like it was in its final stages. Especially after Tibest escorted a group of magicians and high-ranking priests to appear, the human soldiers, backed by nurses and mages, immediately pulled the tide of battle into the rhythm they did best.

The thick-skinned warriors and knights advanced steadily, the archers supported in the center, the nurse was responsible for buffing and adding blood, and there was a magic sweep behind the mage. It's obviously an offensive and defensive battle on the city wall, and the feeling of a positional battle is what humans are best at and the most favorite tactic.

And in the face of this kind of tactic, which can be called a panacea, the werewolves don't have much to deal with. Although the werewolves in Shadowfang Castle are more individually stronger, the single class ratio makes them have few options in terms of tactics, and the only way is to rely on the environment in Shadowfang Castle to resist and eliminate these human soldiers in front of them as much as possible.

But in the face of human warriors with the support of wet nurses, it is clear that such monotonous tactics have little effect.

This is one of the reasons why the four races have been able to become the pillars of their respective factions. The comprehensive class ratio determines that they can formulate the most suitable tactics based on the characteristics of their own race to face a variety of enemies.

It took almost less than three hours for the expeditionary force to occupy the entire outer walls of Shadowfang Castle, a speed that Tibest had expected, as if the defeat in the morning was a joke.

But Tibest didn't feel much joy, even though he had surrounded the entire Shadowfang Castle. Because the most feared enemy in this castle has never been seen from beginning to end!

Fenruth the Devourer! A terrible shadow wolf! A shadow creature with legendary strength and almost complete immunity to magic!

In order to deal with this terrible monster, His Majesty the Pope even brought in Pierre, a legendary assassin, and he needs to work with Dalton to confront Fenrus the Devourer head-on to fight Pierre a chance to deliver a fatal blow!

As for that archmage Arugao? Hehe, it's not that Tibest looks down on him, it's really a hero-level archmage who can't pose any threat at all in this situation!

Not to mention that there are two existences on his side, Vane and Matthew, who are also archmages, and the heroic griffin knight of Kudran alone is enough to form a mortal threat to Arugao! In the face of an attack like Stormhammer, no matter how many magic shields Arugao puts on himself, as long as he is successfully approached by Kudran, there is no chance of survival!

Seeing those werewolves relying on the various buildings in the Shadow Fang Castle to resist stubbornly, Tibest couldn't figure out what to do for a while! Originally, in his plan, as long as the walls of Shadowfang Castle were likely to be lost, the archmage Arugao would definitely intervene to stop the attack of the expeditionary force (at this time, Tibbest did not know that Arugao had been turned into a werewolf), and as soon as Arugao appeared, Vane and Matthew would use spells to suppress him, so as to lure out Fenruth the Devourer.

And in the chaotic battlefield, Tibest and Dalton teamed up to create a chance for Pierre!

However, now seeing that the expeditionary force has completely surrounded the entire Shadowfang Castle, and is even about to enter the inner area of this castle, there is still no appearance of Fenruth the Devourer, and even the culprit capital of Arugao is nowhere to be seen, which can't help but make Tibest hesitate a little.

Go ahead and attack, he's afraid it's a trap. Once the soldiers are inside the castle, it will be much more difficult to evacuate, and the appearance of Fenrus the Devourer will most likely cause great damage to the expeditionary force.

So continue to stay surrounded and wait for the shadow wolf to appear? This obviously doesn't work either, because in just over an hour, the sun will go down, and fighting at night is extremely disadvantageous for the expeditionary force, while the werewolves' combat effectiveness at night has little effect, and it can even be said that it is even higher than during the day.

"What's next?" Wayne Beinst casually threw low-level spells into the castle as he said, "Could it be that we scared you away?" ”

Theoretically speaking, as long as Arugao's brain is not broken, he will never let the expeditionary force enter the Shadow Fang Castle, with the advantages brought by the city wall and the werewolves in the castle, he may be able to confront the expeditionary force, once he loses the protection of the city wall, it is impossible for him to escape from the expeditionary force with as many as six heroic combat power alone!

"I don't know, let's see! I've always thought there was something weird about it! ”

After a while, Dalton also walked over: "I really don't understand what those civilians are thinking!" Obviously like a coward in the morning, he couldn't even touch the edge of the city wall, but now he was almost at the door of the mage tower! ”

"At the entrance of the Mage Tower? How could it be so fast? We've occupied the entire city wall for less than an hour! ”

"I don't know, I thought it was you......"

Before Dalton could finish speaking, a powerful aura suddenly emerged from the depths of Shadowfang Castle, and that aura was full of tyranny, even making Tibest feel obvious pressure.

"Legendary!" Vane also felt the power contained in this breath, which was an existence of a higher level than himself! "Is that Fenruth the Devourer?"

Rumble! With a loud bang, a large number of player corpses splattered everywhere like rags, and there was a sudden silence in the noisy Shadowfang Castle.

With his sword in hand, Tibest said to several officers beside him, "Order the soldiers to exit the Shadow Fang Castle immediately, and the soldiers below the fourth rank leave the city wall!" ”

Although he was a little late, Tibest decided to go according to the original plan, and the next battle would be a heroic battle for them, and it would be difficult for those soldiers to help!

The terrifying, tyrannical atmosphere, and the miserable death of the players calmed down the soldiers who were immersed in the flames of war, and quickly exited the Shadowfang Castle under the command of the officers, and the werewolves strangely did not launch a counterattack, as if they themselves were afraid of the powerful being.

Kudran walked over with the hammer in his hand, his eyes staring straight into the distance, and in that direction, the tyrannical aura was getting closer: "I have to stay and fight!" The Hammer Dwarves would rather die in battle than be deserters! ”

"Then you'd better get on your griffin and find a chance to give that bastard a hard shot!"

"Great idea!"

As he spoke, a figure slowly walked out of the castle!

"Wait, a werewolf? Shouldn't it be a giant wolf? Will that thing ever take on a human form? Vane said in surprise.

What appeared in front of Tibest and the others was not a shadow giant wolf at all, but a huge werewolf nearly four meters tall. Scarlet eyes were so mad and tyrannical that even the shadow werewolves were reluctant to approach him.

"Damn, there's a mistake in the information! In addition to that shadow wolf, there is also a legendary werewolf in the Shadow Fang Castle! There was a hint of horror in Tibest's tone, this unexpected legendary werewolf undoubtedly decided the outcome of this war, and he was confident that he would temporarily fight against a legendary existence with Dalton's cooperation, but this did not mean that he could defeat the other party.

In fact, Tibest himself is already on the threshold of the legendary level, but because of this, he knows the difference between the legendary and the heroic level better than the others, and it is a desperate gap that cannot be described by heaven and earth.

"Kudran, I need you to rush back to the camp immediately and inform Tadrar so that he can prepare to retreat! There's no one here better suited for this mission than you, and your snow fury is the only thing that has the potential to get out of here unharmed! Can I trust you? ”

Sensing the unbridled killing intent emanating from that werewolf's body, as well as the eyes that were firmly locked on him, Tibest made a decision without hesitation, he must stop the other party here, otherwise the entire expeditionary force will be in a desperate situation! For this reason, he did not hesitate to die here!

Kudran wasn't stupid, and he immediately understood what Tibest meant. As a Hammer Dwarf, Kudran will never allow himself to leave like this, it will be a stain on his life, and a Hammer Dwarf who abandons his comrades will be spurned by the mountains. But as a commander, Kudran's sanity told him that this was the best way!

Struggling to stop the tears from pouring out of his eyes, Kudran whistled into the sky and jumped off the wall without looking back. A snow-white figure fell from the sky like lightning and carried Kudran on his back. The young Hammer Dwarf glanced back at the ramparts, then pulled the reins and controlled Snowfury to fly out of the castle.

This action clearly angered the werewolf, and with an agility that was completely inconsistent with his body, he tore a hard stone brick from the ruins beside him, and the rich shadow power instantly wrapped it, and with his heavy throw, the dark purple stone brick shot like a meteor towards the snow fury flying in the air.

One, two, three! Just as the Shadow Stone Brick was less than five meters away from Snow Fury, three basin-sized fireballs blocked its path, and the violent explosion not only dispersed the shadow power that wrapped the stone brick, but also greatly neutralized its impact, eventually causing it to crash out of the castle along the parabola.

Vane, who was playing at a super level, gasped, the successful triple fireball interception just now was simply the peak moment of his life, and he was sure that even when he was promoted to a hero, he had never been so focused! And the price of this is a lot of mana consumption and violent agitation.

Seeing that the blow he was aiming for was stopped by a small reptile, the werewolf let out an angry roar. Seeing Snow Fury quickly disappear from view, he refocused his attention on the three Tibests. Not only because these three guys are the most powerful enemies in the perceptual range, but also because of the rich power of holy light in Tibest and Dalton.

With a roar, the huge werewolf kicked his legs, instantly crossed a distance of nearly two hundred meters, and jumped onto the city wall. Before he could land, a hideous wolf kiss was given, and a shadow spray mixed with bloody gas instantly covered the section of the city wall where Tibest and the others were.

The soldiers who remained on the city wall seemed to be contaminated with concentrated sulfuric acid, whether it was a fourth-order glorious crusader or a sixth-order knight, there was no resistance at all in this dark shadow that looked like a thick fog. The armor blessed by the power of the Holy Light could not even last for a few seconds, and it was corroded into rusty and broken copper and iron by the power of the shadows, and the exposed skin festered rapidly, and the city walls instantly turned into hell.

Tibest, who avoided it in time, couldn't care about those poor soldiers at all, and milky white holy light surged from his body, turning into an eggshell that firmly covered him, which was the most famous and speechless skill of the paladin-Holy Shield Technique!

With the help of the Holy Shield, Tibest was temporarily immune to those terrible shadow poisonous mist, and rushed forward with a long sword burning with holy flames, as the most powerful of the three present, he naturally took on the main force of the battle.

Not to be outdone, although he was still far from touching the threshold of the legendary level, as a holy shield guard who specializes in defense, Dalton is not good at anything else, but his defense is definitely a good hand, even better than Tibest! Like Tibbest, he was wearing a holy shield, and the shield in his hand was also covered by milky white holy light, and the area of protection was almost several times larger, and it looked like he was pushing a strong city wall. Having completely abandoned the attack, Dalton could even ignore the interference of those shadow poisonous fogs and firmly block all directions of the werewolf's attack.

Compared to the two heroes from the Holy See of Light, Vane is a little embarrassed. The strength of this archmage itself can only be regarded as in the middle and lower reaches of the heroic level, coupled with the fact that his own magic power has not subsided due to his super-level performance just now, in the face of this corrosive poisonous mist, he can only reluctantly put a flame shield on himself, and then hide behind Dalton to recover his state as much as possible.

In the face of Tibest's attack, the werewolf's face showed a sarcastic expression, and he didn't even pay attention to the paladin's body, and with a single stroke of his two claws, he grabbed the two soldiers who had been corroded to death by the shadow poisonous mist, and threw them out.

The huge force flew dozens of meters with the two corpses and smashed into another section of the city wall. After landing on the ground, the corpse quickly swelled up, like a balloon that kept inflating, and after a few seconds, the balloon finally couldn't hold on anymore and popped open. The shadow mist, which was exactly the same as before, spread like a poison gas bomb, spreading rapidly along with the explosion of the corpse, enveloping large sections of the city wall.

It turned out that at the same time as he picked up the two corpses, this terrible werewolf had already injected a huge shadow power into the corpses, turning them into two shadow bombs.

For a while, the city wall was full of mourning, and the strength of the legendary-level powerhouse reversed the battle situation almost instantly!
