Chapter 46: The Distant Mountain (16)
It seems that Prince Thor's long-range firepower is very good, and it must be the support sent by those cunning mages and obscene elves, but it doesn't matter, none of them can escape when the infantry brigade arrives. Sorge thought for a moment, brandished his sword and ordered his subordinates to distance themselves. The howling wolf cavalry scattered like a hurricane, swirling and running around the bottom of the hill.
"They've stepped back a bit, won't they't attack?" Sonia stood beside Prince Thor, and in front of her, the determined Guards stood firm like a wall.
From time to time, the wolf cavalry threw arrows in a dash, but as soon as they got closer, they were immediately dismounted by Galadia and the mages, and could only harass them from a distance.
The orcs' bows and arrows fell limply on the dwarves' heavy armor with a clanging sound, not posing a single threat to the heavy infantry.
"They're waiting for their own infantry, count's daughter." Advisor Tolkien shook his head and said, "The battle will not begin until the infantry of the brigade and even the terrible mountain monsters arrive." β
Hundreds of wolf horsemen cunningly kept their distance, surrounding the dwarves on the hills. The mercenaries, including Kroger, understood that they were waiting for reinforcements, and their morale began to waver.
"Atmospheric Mirror." Dylan chanted a spell softly, spreading out his palm to create a mirror that looked down on the earth from above.
An army of hundreds of orcs and goblins is moving rapidly towards this side, with three burly mountain monsters in their battle formation.
"Do you need to break through now? Your Highness. Benioff observed the large crowd of enemies that were approaching, but his face was not worried.
"Native Chicken Tile Dog." Prince Thor snorted disdainfully, "Since they think that such a siege can eat us, let them come, we are here to meet them." β
"It's much better to kill them here than to be followed all the way." Captain Bartow, the warrior brandished his hammer, "Let them come, and hit their heads in front of the dwarves' steel." β
"What to do?" Galadia asked Xiao Yan quietly, "There is a big difference in quantity. β
"If it's just an opponent of this level, don't worry." Xiao Yan shook his head, "I have seen the power of Prince Commodus sweeping thousands of armies under the city of Odessa, and I am here to see the strength of Thor and Benioff, who are strong in the plot. Without the support of high-level combat power, the army of more than a thousand orcs is not to be feared. β
About half an hour later, more than a thousand orcs and goblin infantry rushed over in black and overwhelmed, gathering a few hundred paces outside the hill to gather in formation.
Whether it's the cunning and cowardly goblins, or the arrogant and sluggish orcs, or the gigantic mountain monsters have all traveled a long way, and now they are all panting, and you have been pushing me for a long time without forming a formation.
"The orc army is in an unstable formation, and now is the time for a surprise attack," Valkyrie watched the enemy's situation for a moment, "their commander has made a big mistake, and an army can be easily defeated if it is thrown into chaos." β
"Let these idiots hurry! Bring the mountain monsters to the front. Sorge yelled angrily, "Hurry up, hurry up! The shield is in front, the spear is in the back! β
The wolf cavalry and the infantry leaders scattered one after another, angrily scolding the useless infantry and telling them to hurry up and line up, and it was easy for the soldiers to reluctantly form a large phalanx, but the soldiers could not find their officers and fellow soldiers one by one, and shouted and shouted at each other like a vegetable market.
"Dwarves! The dwarves are coming! A panicked howl erupted in the ranks.
Prince Thor led his guards like a hammer at the ranks of the orcs.
The orcs, who were still in chaos, suddenly exploded. The timid tried to retreat, and the brave squeezed forward, and the already chaotic formation was almost twisted into a twist.
"Charge!" With a sword in hand, Prince Thor led the charge into the orc array. The wolf cavalry, which had just been roaring, scattered to both sides with a hula, leaving only the panicked infantry to face the onslaught of the dwarves.
"Boom!" Thousands of orc infantry were hit head-on by the dwarven assault, like a drunk being hit in the face, and the entire formation took a few steps back.
Bartow followed the prince with a dual-wielding battle axe, and in an instant he lifted a severing body of limbs and heads among the orcs. Where could the orc soldiers resist, the battle line suddenly collapsed, and the soldiers all cried out and collapsed backwards.
Mercenaries such as Galadia, Dilan, Emilia, and Kroger are constantly attacking the grouped orc forces with long-range fire, while also pointing out targets for the frontline soldiers. Whenever a brave orc infantry or wolf cavalry tried to gather together for a counterattack, long-range fire was tilted on their heads.
Xiao Yan and Valkyrie were guarding them from being raided by the wolf cavalry.
Sure enough, this squad that constantly exported destruction and death summoned the attention of the wolf cavalry under Sorge's command. The orcs rode terrifying wolves around from all sides, followed by a large group of orc infantry.
"You follow me." Shi Benioff, who had not made a move, said to Xiao Yan and Valkyrie, and at the same time shook his robe and stepped forward, "Let's stop these beasts." β
As soon as the words fell, the crystal on the gray-robed mage's staff radiated a dazzling brilliance, and the wolf cavalry covered their eyes and did not dare to step forward, while Xiao Yan and Valkyrie felt that they were full of power.
"You've been affected by the Holy Light Blessing Spell!"
"All stats increased by 15! Lasts 30 minutes. β
"It's so powerful! Worthy of a teacher! Xiao Yan's morale was greatly boosted, and he pulled out Hanguang and rushed forward after Benioff.
The three of them rushed towards the wolf cavalry like a whirlwind, and Xiao Yan suddenly accelerated as he approached, crashing head-on into the cavalry at the front.
"Boom!" A man and a beast were knocked to the ground at the same time, and the orcs on the wolf were also overturned. Before he could come out of the whirlwind, a sharp blade slashed him to the ground.
Valkyrie stepped lightly on Xiao Yan's shoulder and leaped high into the air. A blood-red glow covered her golden spear.
The killing intent almost condensed into substance in the air, Xiao Yan was so shocked that he took a step back, and the black wave-like orc infantry suddenly quieted down, staring at the red figure in the air in a daze.
"Gae BLG (Pseudo)!"
Bursting light fell from the sky and rushed towards the densest part of the crowd. Xiao Yan fell to the ground, and before he could lie down, dozens of blood-colored rays of light exploded.
The hottest beam of light hit the core of the orc infantry, and exploded with a "boom". Huge mountain monsters, strong orcs, and dwarf goblins fell like grass in a wildfire.
Benioff swung his staff in his left hand to knock an orc out of a wolf, and with his backhand, he drew a glittering sword and slit the orc's throat. Immediately after a spin, the sword rays spread out like ripples, and the wolf cavalry besieging him was cut by the blade at the same time, and they let out a scream in unison, and retreated in blood. His battle was like a storm of silver blades, and the enemies who came close to him were all broken.
It's so strong! Are my teammates all monsters! Xiao Yan sighed in admiration, turned around and killed an orc.
Something seems weird. Forget it, it shouldn't be a big deal.
Prince Thor was especially powerful, wielding a sword made of pure gold to cut through the orcs' defenses like a melon and a vegetable. Enemies from all sides threw javelins at him, and the sharp heads of the spears smashed into pieces on the hard shields, and no one could stop him. In the blink of an eye, the prince led his steely men through the center of the orcs.
"Mountain Monster!" Dylan suddenly shouted, only to see a huge monster push away the soldiers who were in the way and rush towards the mages.
"I'll deal with him!" Xiao Yan hurriedly turned around to face the mountain monster.
Unlike the mountain monsters he had encountered in the world before, the guy in front of him was even more burly and tall, holding a terrifying mace instead of a wooden club. Even his body was covered with several heavy steel plates as armor.
"Roar!" The mountain monster swung its hammer into the ground, and a huge shockwave swept across the rubble.
Before Xiao Yan could get closer, he was shocked by the heavy blow of the mountain monster and took a few steps back. The mountain monster's roar even had a slowing control effect, making it difficult for him to move for a while.
The mountain monster obviously had a clear goal, leaving Xiao Yan behind and rushing towards the back row of the coalition army.
Galadia drew a bow and arrow, gathered the spirit around the arrow, and immediately covered the armor-piercing arrow with a layer of ice.
"Frost, freeze!"
I saw a silver-white streamer shoot out of the calf of the mountain monster in the middle of the mountain, shooting through the leg bone and pinning him in place. Quickly formed a thick layer of ice where the arrow hit!
"Not bad!" Emilia flicked her long green hair, "I don't see you know a little bit of noble magic. β
I saw her raise her hands, arcane energy leaping in her fingertips, and then quickly enveloped layer after layer of violently colliding energy.
"Look! That's the way to deal with things like mountain monsters! The wind ruffled Emilia's long hair, revealing her smug smile.
"Arcane Bomb!"
The mountain monster in the assault suddenly let out a wail, and was almost about to turn and run away. But a surge of arcane energy roared in his chest.
Heavy and rough armor, like papier-mΓ’chΓ©, did not work at all. Arcane energy easily penetrated the defenses and hit the mountain monster directly.
"Whew!" Xiao Yan, who was close at hand, felt that his ears were about to be deaf, and the mountain monster that was hit howled and fell down.
That's amazing! Xiao Yan couldn't help but admire. Although the mountain monster has low magic resistance, it can kill one head with one blow, and Emilia's strength is indeed good.
Wait a minute! That's not right! Why is it that Dylan and Amilia, who obviously have a deep understanding of magic, are only apprentices of magic, but this guy next to me who slashes with a sword is a teacher?
Since Benioff released a Holy Light Technique and Holy Blessing Technique to improve everyone's attributes, he has slashed left and right in the orc army like a sword master, slashing and killing enemies who are ravaging themselves wantonly. The staff he wielded swept around like a windmill and had a knockback effect, and the sword in his hand was razor-sharp.
"Almost, retreat." Sorge, who had been watching the battle for a long time, brandished his sword, and the remaining wolf cavalry let out a howl one after another, and then quickly withdrew from the battlefield. The infantrymen, who had already been terrified, shouted, running everywhere like cockroaches in the kitchen.
