"Alert! Raise your shields! ”

The moment he saw the skeletal warriors all over the mountain, Ireles realized the seriousness of the problem. She shouted as she blessed herself with a lightning cloak and stood directly at the front of the line.

The three hundred escorts were all elites, and they began to move the moment they heard Ireles' order. The team that had just become a little chaotic because of the sudden appearance of the undead army also gradually calmed down.

Although the skeleton warriors are undead, to be honest, their bodies are still very thin, and every adult who has undergone any practice can smash one with a hammer. Of course, this is a "shattering" from the connection points of the skeleton joints, so that the situation of falling apart cannot really kill these skeletons, and they can recover after ten seconds. If you really want to kill these skeletons, you will either attack them with silver weapons in the same way you do with the undead, or you will simply smash your skull. If you can't, you can also restrict their movement by breaking their leg bones. In fact, these programs can be completed by fighters who have practiced a little, and in some respects they are relatively simple.

In short, the skeleton warriors are the most brittle of the undead family, but brittle does not mean that they are a good match. Many necromancers summon them out or simply use them as cannon fodder, draining the enemy's ammo and strength for the more powerful undead behind them. Either so, summon a skeleton archer to attack from a distance. When the distance is widened, it is no longer a matter whether the body is brittle or not. Under the rain of arrows, no matter how strong the enemy's attack is, he has to hit the street.

"Raise your shield!"

As soon as the protective shield on this side was raised, the undead who appeared on the other side pulled out their bows and arrows one by one and began to shoot at the group of humans in front of them.

Bagrove's convoy is not a regular combat unit, so their shields are the same as those of regular guards. On the shield is the head of a horse drawn with a black line on a yellow background, which is the coat of arms of Lord Baglouf, Lord of Snowman.

If the guards who are also equipped encounter such a rain of arrows, it is estimated that they will die in a wave because the shield is too small to protect the whole body. However, the soldiers of these convoys apparently had no such concerns. In the face of the rain of arrows, they had already made the most correct reaction when Ireles shouted to raise their shields.

Five rows in front and back, squatting or standing staggered. The shields in their hands were like tiny bricks, layer by layer, layer upon layer, extending diagonally upward, and finally forming an arc-shaped surface. This arc encircles the frame of Baggrove, and together with the cover of Baggrove's carriage, it forms an inverted iron pot that firmly protects the people below.

At the front of the team, Ireles, who was looking for the "master", saw the rain of arrows and had to retreat to the shield protection.

They didn't have to wait long for the arrows shaped by the magical power of the skeletal archers to slice through the sky one by one and finally land on the shields of the warriors of the Snow Man. For a while, the dense jingle sound was endless. Although the shields were staggered and stacked, and the gap had been greatly reduced, there were still a few that got into the shields, causing a lot of trouble to the warriors below.

Neat deployment, orderly attack. These skeletons must not have escaped from some kind of tomb! They must have been resurrected by some necromancer to ambush Lord Baggrove! Listening to the wave outside that had just flattened, and then the rain of arrows, Ireles' heart instantly tightened. There must be more than one attack on them! Now it's just an appetizer!

These skeleton warriors didn't have many arrows with them when they were resurrected, and this kind of covering indiscriminate attack continued for a few waves before gradually ceased. And because of the timely reaction on the side of Xue Manling, not many people died under the rain of arrows.

But is this the end? Just as Ireles thought, when the rain of arrows stopped and the warriors of the Snow Man Collar slowly lowered their shields, they were shocked by the situation in front of them. Because they saw that behind those skeletons, there were five trolls, and a giant! Just look at the blue light on their bodies and you can tell that these guys are the resurrected corpses of necromancers!

Damn it! Where did they get these bodies? Ireles also saw the current situation at this time. With a lightning chain in her hand, she smashed the skeletons that rushed to the front, and then shouted, "Rockets ready...... Shoot! ”

Although it is not clear how many attacks he will encounter this time. But one thing is certain, and that is that the team she is leading has a great chance of being ambushed. So Ireles had already brought enough weapons and bullets before he set off. At the sound of an order, the guards began to take arrows, ignite them, and set up arrows...... At the moment when the word "shooting" appeared in Irelis, one after another flew out of the air. The movements of these guards were not in the slightest mess, as if the rain of arrows that had just been fired by the enemy and the injured teammates who had been dragged down by the logistics staff did not exist.

Although I didn't expect the enemy to appear in this form, the effect of the fire element on the undead is also well known. It's not as effective as silver weapons, but at least for now, it's a solution to their immediate needs.

"Whew......" The orange flames struck the skeletons as they slammed forward, or fell to the ground and ignited the still withered grass. One of the rockets even shot directly at the troll in the back, and this guy turned into a ball of fire the moment he was hit by the arrow.

"Retreat!" Seeing the effect of the rocket, Qijia successfully stopped the undead who were moving forward, and Ireles did not like to fight, and directly ordered a part of the escort to stay behind the palace, and the rest of the people took the lord's carriage to retreat to the White River Lookout Outpost. After all, their team attracts firepower, and it is not cost-effective to force it against this army of the undead.

Dark.

A necromancer saw that the enemy actually wanted to retreat, and couldn't help but want to rush out and use ice spells to extinguish the fire and keep people. But as soon as he moved, he was pressed down by another necromancer in front of him.

"What? Don't you see the target to run? ”

"This must be the Dark Elf Captain trying to lure us out! Don't forget that it is us who control this army of the undead, as long as they can rush to us with the loss of manpower, not to mention that our operation will fail this time, even our lives will have to be taken here! ”

"But...... Task ......"

"Our mission is to assassinate Bagruf, but now that there is no way to kill him, he will not be able to reach the Council of Lords on time when we force him back...... This is also acceptable for Her Majesty the Queen......"
