Chapter 495: The Ghost Tide Strikes (64)

At this point, the only handsome blonde man, Pitt Dorey, who had not yet spoken up, did not want to further affect the morale of the army with his perhaps more pessimistic speculation, even if the earlier conversation was enough to make everyone's mood fall to the bottom.

Even if someone hopes that the unspoken words are hopeful, the desire to ask questions is interrupted by the commotion and antagonism generated by the troops.

Although Sima Qiudao had repeatedly proposed to retreat quickly, everyone still overestimated the speed of the advance of the undead skeleton army on the opposite side......

In just a few words, as the commanders on the scene, the reactions and actions of the three of them at this time have already indicated everyone's current mood, and they no longer have any optimism about the current situation, or they are simply desperate.

Victory was no longer expected, and a deadly enemy counterattack did turn the whole situation around.

Now, perhaps the dying struggle of our own Blood Island coalition could not be more appropriate; No matter that it is close to dawn at this moment, and the day is approaching, no one knows whether the Skeleton Legion, as a real elite undead, will really care about the so-called broad daylight......

No one had the luxury of expecting to take advantage of the slope to make an all-out downward charge, but instead prepared to face the enemy with a rudimentary line of improvised war equipment.

Even such a cautious and conservative move has yielded good results in the fighting of recent days. However, Sima Qiudao still suggested that it was better not to fight to the death on the spot, and it was advisable to avoid its edge and retreat as soon as possible.

However, where can you retreat? Behind it is the small town of Blood Island, where many old and young women and children who can't fight are concentrated here, even if they have to drag each other here in order to gain time for them to transfer~!

Obviously, Sima Qiudao was also well aware of this situation, but he obviously pressed all his hopes on Father Tang Long's summoning array, and he thought that it was pointless for Pete and Meishen Reiko's persistent delaying tactics.

However, since they didn't want to leave, Sima Qiudao couldn't go alone, so he had no choice but to stay and sing a tragic drama of "sacrificing his life to accompany the gentleman......

These arrangements did not have any effect on the enemy, but unfortunately the original catapults and ammunition were already close to catastrophe, and it was really impossible to suppress the fire.

So much so that at this time, the opponent actually occupied the gentle slope in the middle of the mountain road and could temporarily form a team, but then moved forward step by step with a more rigorous attitude, and the formation was huge enough to shake the minds of normal people.

In fact, quite a few people began to think about escape plans and routes. Especially longbow teams that have not been trained in group tactics.

"Do muskets work? Against skeleton soldiers. Pete, the handsome blond man, asked the townsfolk around him, but no one could give him a definitive answer. Suddenly, a gunshot caught everyone's attention, and the best hunters from the small town of Blood Island replaced the ammunition casings with skillful movements and sent them to the bolt. Aim, second shot. The veteran hunter in a kneeling position spat his lips and pulled out a third special ammunition from his waist bag. Aim, shoot!

"Hey! It works. The guy in front of him, who looked old enough to be called an uncle, screamed like a child with excitement. As long as the part of the spine is hit, one shot is enough. But the leader of the Longbow team, who approached from behind, gave him a kick unceremoniously. Spine! Wouldn't you be embarrassed to say something like that with the best and most accurate shotgun in town? ”

What was meant to be retorted was stopped by another gunshot. Everyone turned their heads to see a hunter of similar age lying on the earthen embankment in front of the slope, and smoke was coming from the muzzle of a single-barreled long-pole shotgun equipped with a scope. He also tilted his head to look at the others. "Is it hard to hit?"

"Damn! Pretending to be a criminals with their own scopes! ”

I couldn't swallow a breath, and in the face of that sentence, all the members of the gun team lined up, kneeling or lying down to launch a series of precision shots. There was no one to command, they didn't need any commands, everyone was focused on their own aiming, because the enemy could not be crushed with a barrage, and blind shooting was just a waste. As for the leader of the meaningless longbow team, it is a total of fifty people, and the director of the women's battalion who controls the almost Japanese-style longbow should retreat with his subordinates first, it would have been difficult enough to shoot skeletons, and wouldn't it be more tragic if it was changed to a long bow~?

The original undead ghoul was still in the flesh and could be pierced by arrows, but now it has been replaced by a bone rack that leaks everywhere and is empty, so where can the arrows be inserted?

Even though staying can boost morale a little, in the eyes of Sima Qiudao, this is meaningless to increase the chaos and casualties during the retreat, so he was still repelled by Sima Qiudao and retreated to the town of Blood Island......

If anyone still disagrees with this decision, please refer to "The Mummy 3 Dragon Emperor" for yourself......

As the only long-range containment attack that can be used on the front line at this moment, if the effect of this wave of bullets is still unsatisfactory, it is not that it cannot hold on a little.

Not surprisingly, under the cover of inefficient bullets, our coalition forces finally made official contact with the undead skeleton legion returning from hell. It seems that the strength of a living person should be much stronger than the so-called bone frame, even if the opponent is wearing a bone frame with equipment.

However, even this blind self-confidence still does not play a role in the face of the enemy's many insects and ants on the opposite side, especially the army that has been properly trained......

Well, the undead army. The bones of the foot soldiers entangled their opponents, and the impact of the skeleton knights was overwhelming. Unlike the ghouls' monotonous forward lunges and bites, the Skeleton Legion undoubtedly displays a variety of combat skills. It's just that this change is really unpleasant.

The front end of the defensive line, which was the first to contact the enemy, was mixed into a scuffle, and for the time being, no side was in a state of decay. It can also be seen from this that under the huge disparity, there is Sima Qiudao, the blonde handsome guy Pete and the longitudinal horse (Shikigami Endara) back and forth to support the patrol of the beautiful god Reiko, how powerful the battle power broke out in a short period of time, even if such a dazzling performance is only fleeting.

Detached from the human attack, the skeleton foot soldier leaps like a grasshopper and swoops straight at the shooter who is still hiding behind makeshift cover, causing the living to fall to the ground and lose their balance when they encounter an unexpected attack. If ghouls use bites as weapons, then the skull's soul sucking must be another unbearable pain.

The more energy the skeleton absorbs, the more obvious the aura covering its exterior becomes, even revealing the image of a human being. Even if the miserable green and murderous light only shows a hideous face.

As half-blood daywalkers who are much more powerful than ordinary humans, the armed townsfolk of the Blood Isle are also very capable of struggling to resist, not to mention that they also possess some of the traits of the dead in strict speaking.

Therefore, in the soul-sucking soul eating attack that would inevitably kill an ordinary living person in an instant once they were hit, the daywalkers who had lost a small amount of the breath of the living gradually revealed the unique characteristics of the undead of the blood clan, and this time it changed from the battle between the living and the undead to the struggle between the half-undead and the undead.

However, in the end, the number of the coalition forces on this side is too small, and the number difference is a full twenty to one, and a little desperate struggle cannot change the situation of the battle, and some only increase the continuation of the pain before the death......

All the fighters who were on the front line blended into the enemy's forward phalanx, and they could only barely maintain the situation that had not yet collapsed. But looking at the eyes of the people on the slope, the two large moving skull bones phalanx that were filled in from the rear were like the death knell from hell.

They are not only the key to breaking the balance of power, but also the complete defeat of the forces of several parties.

It is undeniable that some people have quietly fled from this defeated battlefield, but others continue to participate in the battle below. Where to care about their meager strength is just a drop in the bucket.

As the three most capable commanders in the front line, everyone had already put the dream of victory behind them, and everyone began to make their own calculations. It was retreating step by step, barely parrying off the endless onslaught of the sea of skeletons like a tidal wave. Even though relying on the mana infused in the palm of their hands, the weapons of spiritual power and sharp minions could easily tear, slash, and shatter the skeleton of the skeleton of the skull sent to them, but the efforts of the three of them still could not produce much results in the entire battle situation, and it would not be of much help to continue to waste energy in vain, thus further losing their confidence.

In the distance, where the three of them could not take care of it, there were already some fallen areas and routs, especially now that the skeleton army was gradually retreating and rushing uphill.

As soon as he tore off the skeleton knight holding the spear from the skeletal war horse that was charging towards him, he twisted off the ugly skull with his hand, and threw the cavalry spear back with his backhand to knock down the two skeleton soldiers.

"Pete, do you think this battle can be fought?" When he turned his head to look, he saw that Reiko the beautiful god had just smashed the three skeleton soldiers who were blocking the road with a magic stick shining with spiritual power.

"Hey......, if you have time to chat, don't hurry up and break through, if you continue to entangle, no living person can leave, everyone has to meet ...... underground"

Not far away, a single sword, dancing into a ball of blue and white electric light protection, chopping skeletons like cutting grass Sima Qiudao, it seems that while fighting, he did not forget to pay attention to the movements here.

"It doesn't matter what you think, anyway, I don't want to accompany a certain family here, after half a moment, I'll go straight in, let's do it yourself......"

"Cut~! To put it lightly, it's really like everyone else has a magic weapon in your hand, just go......"

In the midst of the curse, he pulled open his shirt, and a mysterious mark gradually became clear on the left chest of the handsome blonde man, Pete. "Damn! Do you think I'm going to take this as a gift? Fart! I'll just take this as a curse, a curse from this race. ”

Clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, that power did not fade with anger, as early as the death and fall of his father, an inexplicable family brand appeared from his chest, perhaps as the last member of the Bradhu family, he had officially inherited the special power inherited by the family.

Suddenly, a war knife with rust stains but still sharp blades slashed at him, and he managed to dodge the fatal blow in a state of slight distraction.

The handsome blonde guy Pete scolded in a low voice, casually raised his right hand to tease the enemy, and the five sharp claws flashing with cold light easily scratched the skeleton in front of him, and suddenly jumped away from the spot and turned forward, still cursing in his mouth: "Damn, no wonder some people say that war is a game played by madmen, and it is irreparable to fight." Trapped in it, I can't help myself, I fight~! ”

Holding the spear with his backhand and raising it high, the stupid skeleton knight who refused to let go of the spear was turned into the air like a fluttering battle flag, and the next moment, he threw it out casually and knocked over a skeleton.

The handsome blonde guy Pete Dorey opened his mouth and shouted: "Gather here with me and break through with me~!" ”

The battle situation is not as fierce as imagined, because the one-sided battle is not related to the "fierce".

A tidal wave of skeletal troops rushed to the human coalition position. People who desperately resist can only consume their physical strength endlessly and shed blood, which may have something to do with "tragedy".

Even the three of them, including the handsome blonde guy Pete, could only barely assemble into multiple small groups to protect themselves. Struggled to support the never-ending attacks of the enemy without being swallowed up by the sea of skeletons and bones.

"Khooth!" Having just decapitated the head of a skeleton knight, Reiko Migami gasped as she held the already broken and broken avatar with one hand.

Lifting the weapon that is still blessed by spiritual power, it should be a straight stick body that has already been scratched everywhere, full of gaps, and it is only a matter of time before it breaks and breaks. "Even if you have enough spiritual power, it's almost gone?" In the fierce battle just now, I don't know how many skeletons were smashed and the strongest female GS who slashed more than a few undead blades flew away, so emotional.

There was an ominous premonition behind the moment, and the grinding on the battlefield pulled the horse's left hand. The spinning body of the horse drove the club, and it turned around and slammed into the sword of the headless skeleton knight, the rusty iron sword and the badly damaged avatar stick breaking at the same time. The powerful impact from the skeleton horse also knocks Reiko off the horse (Shikigami Endara).

One rolled to his feet, and seeing the bones and horses coming again and again with a rapid pace full of threats, Migami Reiko did not hesitate to meet him. Leaping to the height of the rider, he unleashed a straight right punch containing spiritual power and knocked his opponent off the horse.

The skeleton that fell to the ground tried to get up from the ground, but the phosphorus fire that was beating in the hollow eye socket saw the oncoming spiritual power fluctuations, and in a burst of blue light and a shining explosion, the skeleton knight who fell to the ground was completely gray.

The red hair fluttering like a torch dancing in the night, Reiko Migami was using her hands that gathered spiritual power to break another skeleton soldier into several pieces.

The swarming skeleton foot soldiers struck at the rolling enemy, but Reiko Mijin remained dazed until the last moment. The crimson light of the fiery power flickered overhead, and the undead soldiers were reduced to threatening ashes, and our valiant female knight remembered that there was more than one enemy he had to face.

"Sima ......"

"Hehe, it's not okay to focus too much on the opponent in front of you and ignore the movements around you, Miss Meijin......"
