Chapter Seventy-Five: Fierce Battle
Song Zheng had only guessed that Lena Imbas's identity was very good before, but now it seems that her magical talent is also extremely good, and it is even likely that she is no worse than Gianna, who is known as a magical genius.
However, his attention quickly shifted from Lena Imbas to Wenlesa next to him.
After all, magic is too special, and he pays great attention to talent, and with his ability, it is estimated that it is already good to become a magic apprentice, even if he keeps watching Lena Imbas release magic, he will not gain anything, but Wen Lesa is a ranger, and his combat skills can be learned.
However, just by taking a look, Song Zheng's eyelids couldn't help but jump wildly.
Wen Lesa used a green longbow, and the wooden bow even had a few leaves on it, which looked quite ordinary, but the speed at which this elven ranger pulled the bow was extremely amazing, only to see the continuous vibration of the bowstring, and the arrows shot out like beads, and Song Zheng couldn't even see the specific action of her drawing the bow.
And what made Song Zheng particularly speechless the most was Wen Leisa's attack strength...... At least half of the long arrow pierced the ogre's body!
Even though the ogre's defenses were very strong, they fell with a bang after being shot by Winlessa three or four arrows.
In less than a minute, Song Zheng had already seen four ogres die under Wen Lesa's arrows!
Song Zheng couldn't help but glance at Wen Leisa's slender arm, thinking of the previous scene when his crossbow couldn't penetrate the ogre's skin at all, he really couldn't believe that this seemingly slender elf girl would have such a strong strength.
"No wonder Sylvanas was able to easily defeat a group of mages in Dalaran, if she couldn't perform instant magic like Gianna, I'm afraid she would be shot to death before she finished a spell......" Song Zheng pouted, this elven ranger is really too far from ordinary hunters, if Wen Lesa is given enough time and arrows, it is estimated that she can kill this group of ogres with at least two hundred or more numbers alone.
However, those ogres were also extremely crazy, although the same kind continued to fall on the way to the charge, but the rest of the ogres seemed to be more courageous, and even the already extremely burly body actually increased a little again.
"Raise your shield and form a formation!"
Seeing that those ogres had rushed closer, the distance was only twenty or thirty meters, and everyone could even see the red eyes of those ogres, some knights hurriedly raised their big shields and stood at the forefront of the team.
However, due to the lack of unified command, the shield wall looked crooked and untidy, and some people even quietly retreated.
Song Zheng also felt that it was difficult for these knights to resist the ogre's charge, after all, the opponent's size occupied too much advantage, especially those huge weapons could easily destroy these shields.
While he was secretly preparing to use the 'Sprint' skill if the situation was wrong, Luo Ning's magic was finally completed, or rather long since it was completed, just waiting for the best time to release it.
As the golden staff in Luo Ning's hand slammed into the snow under his feet, a red light suddenly erupted about twenty meters in front of him.
Countless flames rose from the snow, rushing up more than ten meters high, and then burning quickly towards both ends.
"Firestorm? Wrong...... That's too big, it's supposed to be a wall of fire! ”
At this moment, the wall of flames had stretched for nearly a hundred meters to the left and right, and the ogre who happened to step within the range of this wall of fire instantly fell down screaming.
Song Zheng had to secretly admire Luo Ning's actual combat experience, this wall of fire that had endured for a long time was released just right, just separating the charging ogre team from it.
The dozens of ogres who rushed to the front were immediately hesitant after being startled by the wall of fire, but the constant stream of arrows forced them to continue the charge.
By the time the ogres finally collided with the knights, their charge had slowed down considerably.
Since the ogres in the rear were blocked by the wall of fire, it was difficult to continue to rush over for a while, so everyone's attacks were instantly concentrated on these dozens of ogres.
Although the followers of those mages lacked cooperation and command, their personal abilities were indeed good, especially after the mages used the sluggishness technique again, even if those ogres had rushed to the front, their combat effectiveness was greatly weakened, and they soon continued to fall under siege.
Song Zheng also took the opportunity to wield a small dagger and stabbed a few times at an ogre affected by the Retardation Technique, although with his height, he could only stab the opponent's thigh at most, and it was difficult to cause any fatal damage, but it allowed him to successfully mix up the experience points.
"5300 ......" Song Zheng glanced at the experience value, and immediately became excited as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, if he could kill a few more, then he would be able to upgrade immediately!
"It's a pity that the power of the crossbow is too small to have no effect." Song Zheng felt a little regretful in his heart, it was still too dangerous to use a dagger to mend the knife at close quarters, the weapons in the hands of those ogres could kill people even if they accidentally fell, and the dwarf musket in his hand had very little gunpowder and bullets left, and he was ready to keep it for use in a critical moment.
After all, in the Alterac Mountains, the threat isn't just ogres!
When all those ogres fell, Song Zheng finally gained the experience of only two ogres, but as time passed, the wall of fire released by Luo Ning had gradually extinguished...... On top of this snowy mountain, almost all of the fire-type magic has been weakened.
The remaining ogres still numbered nearly two hundred, and immediately let out an extremely angry roar when they saw that all their kind in front of them had been killed.
Surprisingly, however, the ogres did not continue to charge, but instead began to retreat.
"What's going on?" The people who had thought that a hard battle would be needed suddenly showed a look of surprise, but no one dared to pursue them.
Many people looked at Gianna, but judging by Gianna's look, she was also puzzled by the actions of these ogres.
"Stay vigilant, the priest hurries to treat the wounded, and the mage immediately meditates on the spot to restore his magic." Luo Ning issued a series of orders.
Although the ogre's charge just now was greatly restricted, it still caused a lot of impact on the knights at the front, with more than fifty killed in battle, and nearly a hundred seriously wounded, which was not even less than the ogre's in terms of the number of losses.
"It seems that ordinary knights and warriors are still too dangerous, only one shield can barely be used for ......defense," Song Zheng couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the wounded who were wailing in pain in the snow.
But he soon discovered another problem...... One of the ogres on the ground doesn't seem to be completely dead!
