Chapter Seventy-Three: The Night Dancer
Above the cliff at the back of the dock.
There are rocks on the edge of the cliff, and a team of more than twenty people is hiding behind these rocks.
At the front were two elite-level archers, and the people in the back, both wearing red and blue robes of a uniform style, holding ebony staffs, were none other than the third-order elite: the arcane mage.
"Captain, those bandits have already entered our attack range, now do you?" The cat-man archer next to him asked in a low voice.
"Wait a little longer, let them distance themselves from the catapult behind them."
The werewolf captain stared straight ahead, the bandits were getting closer and closer to the dockyard.
In the blink of an eye, the bandits were less than a hundred meters away from the dock, and even the patterns on the dock gate could be seen clearly under the moonlight.
"Do it!" The werewolf squad leader shouted.
"Hell!"
"Vortex Blade!"
After receiving the order, the more than twenty secret mages behind immediately released the group magic that had been prepared for a long time.
Rumble!
Huge flames rose up and illuminated the surroundings of the dock.
"Ahh
"Retreat, there's an ambush!"
The dozens of bandits who rushed to the front were surrounded by flames in an instant, some of the lower grades were directly burned to death on the spot, and the remaining few also let out a terrible scream under the scorching flames.
These arcane mages are already advanced professions, and their magic attack power is very high, and the few surviving bandits quickly retreated, leaving the range of the flames.
However, before these people who survived the catastrophe had time to rejoice, more than a dozen huge rotating water blades seven or eight meters long raged in the crowd, and several bandits with remnants of blood were directly torn to pieces by the water blades.
The surrounding bandits fled frantically, and the scene was chaotic.
Fire and water blend.
The huge water blade quickly evaporated under the scorching flames, and the front of the dock was immediately surrounded by a large area of water vapor, plus it was not yet dawn, and the surroundings were already pitch black, and the bandits' vision was greatly restricted.
The mystical mages kept unleashing water and fire spells, the fog became thicker and thicker, the water blades and flames raged, and the scene was even more out of control.
"Quick, use wind spells to blow away these fogs!" The leader of the tiger man bandits shouted loudly.
Several of the Wind Elemental Mages among the Bandits immediately unleashed their skills in an attempt to blow away the surrounding fog.
However, compared to the more than twenty mages above the cliff, the number of wind elemental mages among the bandits was too small, and the mist was still being generated, and a few wind spells were simply a drop in the bucket.
......
The seabed on the west side.
Six elite Assassins are lurking here.
Assassins are not good at large-scale frontal combat, and the first thing they have to do on the battlefield is to hide themselves, and sneak attacks and assassinations are their specialty.
These assassins are covered in a layer of transparent bubbles, which are the effect of underwater breathing potions. Hearing the explosion from above, several people also knew that the time had come, and quickly went ashore and entered a stealth state, and the night was their best cover.
The cat-man assassin who walked in the front observed the surrounding situation, then pointed to the catapult that was moving slowly behind him, and the few people behind him nodded.
Several catapults were moving slowly, and they had already distanced themselves from the large army in front of them.
Siege Machines have a long range, high damage, and a fairly high damage bonus to buildings, making them a prime target for elimination.
Phew.
A few soft sounds.
"Uh... There are thorns..."
Behind the catapult, several thieves who were pushing the cart clutched their throats and fell to the ground in pain.
"Enemy attack!"
"Be careful!"
As soon as the bandit in front turned his head, he saw his companion behind him fall to the ground, and then looked at the figures holding daggers next to him, and he reacted instantly
All the high-ranking bandits were in the front team, and almost all the people behind the catapults were the worst, and these people would be the opponents of the elite assassins, and they were killed in a few minutes, leaving only corpses everywhere.
"Ruined these catapults." The cat-man assassin shouted under his breath.
Under the attack of the Assassins, several catapults were reduced to pieces.
......
The bandits in front were now shrouded in dense fog all around, and they didn't know the situation behind them at all.
"Don't mess around! Stabilization!! ”
The tiger man shouted loudly, trying to regather the chaotic bandits around him.
However, now that their vision is limited, coupled with the constant attacks of the mages, the fog around them is getting thicker and thicker, and the bandits around them can't figure out where the sound is coming from.
"Second brother, we are in ambush, what should we do now?" The tiger man looked anxious and looked at the middle-aged man beside him.
He really couldn't figure out how the other party knew that their actions were so secretive this time.
Everywhere there was the panicked shouts of the bandits.
Occasionally, a few hapless bandits were directly hit by the magic attacks of the mystical mages, either burned to charcoal or cut to pieces by water blades.
The middle-aged man looked at the surrounding situation and said with a solemn face: "Third brother, it seems that our actions have long been exposed, and now there is no point in attacking the dock, let's withdraw first." ”
The surrounding fog was filled, the situation was chaotic, and they couldn't give full play to the advantage of being numerous, so they could only withdraw from the fog-shrouded area before making plans.
"But, what about what the eldest brother told us?" The tiger man said urgently.
"Third brother, the purpose of the eldest brother is not to dock, but to let us lure out the guards in the territory, there is such a big movement here, the lord here will not sit idly by." The middle-aged man said
In fact, he had even greater worries in his heart.
Since there is an ambush here, the other party will definitely have a backhand, judging from the attack strength of these mages on the other side, I am afraid that all of them are advanced elemental mages, and the strength of this territory is much stronger than they imagined.
What he is most worried about now is not whether the plan will succeed, but whether the more than 1,000 people will return alive.
"Withdraw from me!"
"Retreat!!"
The two shouted as they stepped back.
Those ordinary bandits had long wanted to withdraw, but when they heard the boss's order, they naturally turned around and ran.
The bandits quickly retreated a few hundred meters, and finally left the enveloping range of the mist, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.
The middle-aged man glanced around, in a short period of time, hundreds of brothers had been killed and injured on their side, and the most important thing was not casualties, and the morale of the team had fallen to the bottom.
"Second master, our catapult was destroyed, and our brothers were killed!" As soon as the retreating bandits looked up, they saw the fragments of the catapult and the corpses of the bandits lying on the ground.
"!" The strong tiger man scolded fiercely.
The middle-aged man next to him also had an ugly face.
He didn't expect that the other party would actually ambush people in other places, and what worried him even more was that there was no reaction at all in the territory over there for such a big movement here, which was very abnormal.
"Second brother, why is there no movement over there?" The tiger man wondered.
"The situation is a little wrong, let's withdraw first."
The bandits began to retreat one after another.
......
Ten minutes ago, the central square.
Barr and Lilith were gathering here, while the Black Ghost and Bart were hiding in the courtyard nearby.
From the figure of the man in black, it can be seen that he should be an assassin, and an assassin wants to lure the guards out of the territory, and the purpose is already obvious, I am afraid that he wants to attack him.
Simply, Barr fulfilled him.
"Lilith, let's act." Barr said calmly
The guards had quietly assembled.
"Let's go!"
Lilith gave an order, the guards immediately took action, the gate at the entrance of the village had been opened, and the village guards almost poured out of the nest this time, and rushed to the direction of the dock under the leadership of Lilith.
At this time, the bandits were being attacked by the mystic, and they didn't notice the movement here.
Barr was the only one left in the central square.
.......
In the hidden place on the right side of the village entrance, the man in black stared closely at the guards who left the village entrance one after another.
"The minotaur wasn't in there, he stayed in the territory." The man in black said secretly, his purpose is to transfer the guards around the target, of course, if the mission target can come out of the territory, in the chaos of the army, it is more suitable for him to play.
As for the bandits who lured away the guards, he didn't bother to care, in his eyes, these stupid races didn't deserve this world at all.
The man in black dodged and climbed the city wall.
Looking at Barr, who was standing alone in the square, the man in black was overjoyed.
He didn't expect things to go so smoothly, he thought that this minotaur would leave a few guards around him, but he didn't expect him to stay here alone, then things would be simple.
"It's not challenging at all, it's boring."
The man in black pulled out the dagger at his waist, then took out a black potion bottle from his backpack, opened the bottle, and poured the liquid inside onto the dagger.
This is a poison from the Demon Realm: Ghost Dreams.
This dilute poison can inflict up to 100,000 points of toxin damage on the target within ten seconds, and it can be used against a level 30 elite, but the man in black has always been cautious, and in order to ensure that this operation is foolproof, he still does not hesitate to use it.
He is a level 52 night dancer.
The Night Dancer is an advanced class of assassins, skilled in assassination, and the template level of the man in black is even a low-level leader, killing an elite of more than 30 levels is simply handy.
He clenched the dagger in his hand and went into a stealth state.
One step, two steps.
The distance between the two is rapidly closing.
