Chapter 571: The Battle Is Deadlocked

The darkness of the night and the fog are enough to disorient any flying creature unfamiliar with the swamp in the sky, of course, this does not include the griffin knights who are the elite members of the Erathia Emperor** team, each griffon knight is an excellent aerial scout, and their rigorous training allows them to quickly adapt to various environments, and it is they who ignore the obstacles of the fog and have been biting the enemy's tail from the air through various subtle sounds and residual traces, and finally discovered the enemy's camp.

Reddell is the best of the griffin knights in the defending army of Ajvoort, he is a veteran of the last great war, a veteran griffin knight, and now the commander of one of the griffon brigades of the Flying Force of Ajvor City, and now, he is directing his troops to advance with the ground forces at a high speed, but the closer he gets to the target, the more uneasy his heart becomes.

His instincts told him that the woods hidden in the mist below him were dangerous, and the spiritual royal griffin who had accompanied him on the battlefield for many years was also a little restless, but the others had no special discoveries, and he couldn't find anything wrong for a while, which made him wonder if he was a little nervous.

"Is it because of the poisonous dragon flies?" Redel thought a little self-deprecatingly, in the previous battle, he had already appreciated the power of these poisonous insects, the fierceness of the battle at that time made him still have lingering palpitations, and the griffins who were fearless in the face of dragons were so powerless in the face of these amazing numbers of poisonous insects, fortunately, these poisonous insects had low defense and were a mess, otherwise the griffons who pursued the enemy would be dangerous in that battle that day.

At this time, the troops on the ground had completed the encirclement of the dense forest from two directions, and the general attack on the enemy's camp had finally begun.

Through the mist, Ryder saw that in just an instant, countless torches were ignited, and then the emperor ** soldiers shouted in unison, and slaughtered into the dense forest with great momentum.

This kind of fanfare attack seems ridiculous, after all, the emperor ** touched it quietly all the way, in order to sneak attack the other party, but at the last moment, it was a self-violent act, but Ryder was not surprised by this situation.

The commander of the other party is the famous fire witch Edney, these days of exploration have also shown that the enemy is extremely strict around the camp, there are a lot of bright posts, and I don't know how many dark whistles there are, and now the emperor ** has arrived at their door, if you still think they don't know anything, it is an idiot's behavior.

Even if you can't hide your tracks anymore, it's better to attack it in a big and dignified manner, anyway, the numerical advantage of the army has been determined, and it is quite unwise to fight with the Titarians in the swamp in the dark, those lizardmen and wolf-headed monsters, as well as those strange beasts, are much more flexible than the emperor's soldiers in the swamp, and fighting in the dense forests of the swamp is not as good as fighting in the endless plains of the empire, which is very different, So Reddell thinks that Lord Alfred made the right choice.

In addition to the torches, many light fire magic was also cast into the sky by the priests in the emperor's **, the light of the magic shone in the mist, illuminating a large area, the crossbowmen were not idle, a large number of rockets soared into the air, flew into the depths of the woods, and the specially treated rockets ignited those non-flammable plants in the swamp, and sporadic fires began to appear everywhere in the woods.

The Emperor's offensive was very fast, and the ground in the woods was undoubtedly more solid than the rest of the swamps, which made the Emperor's soldiers advance not slowly, they shuttled through the forest, bypassing the dirty quagmire and ponds with turbid water that appeared from time to time in the swampy woods, and advanced towards the predetermined goal, the crusaders with shields and halberders walked together in front of the team, and behind them, there were imperial priests who cast various magic spells from time to time, and the crossbowmen lined up in firing formations, firing a volley every twenty pacesto shoot the hero's flaming rocket into the darkness.

The originally quiet woods suddenly became extremely noisy because of the actions of the emperor, and everywhere was the shouts of the emperor's soldiers, the chanting of the priests' incantations, the humming of bows and crossbows, and the crackling sound of flames burning trees.

All this made Rydell instantly understand where his uneasiness and sense of danger came from - before the emperor ** attacked, this forest was too quiet, there were no bird calls, no insect chirps, no friction of small animals moving between the branches and leaves, and no sound of animals playing in the swamp water, in the case of a forest, this kind of silence is not normal at all!

Even the arrival of Emperor ** failed to break this silence immediately!

Rydel's heart tightened for a moment, he knew very well what this silence meant, and he yelled for one of his nearest griffon knights to go down to the ground to find Alfred and warn them, but before the inexplicable griffin knight could figure out what had made his commander so nervous, the rebel attack had already begun, and Rydel woke up a little too late.

The forest, which had been quiet, suddenly came to life.

Countless poisonous dragon flies flew out of those swamp trees with dense foliage, their yellow bodies and transparent thin wings looked very strange in the light of the firelight, this time, they did not fly into the sky to find trouble with the griffins, but plunged headlong into the crowd of emperors who were defenseless against them.

At the same time, there are a large number of bipedal wyverns emerging from the trees, these powerful flying creatures with a long snake neck have the size of a griffin, they are the highest level of the swamp flying creatures, a mouthful of sharp teeth, a pair of claws, and a powerful tail whip, is the weapon they rely on to kill the enemy, their hand-to-hand combat ability far exceeds that of griffins and other ordinary flying creatures, but their power is not only that, these powerful creatures can also use the venom secreted between the teeth to poison the enemy, it is worth mentioning, Their poison is not the kind of poisonous dragon flies that only make people feel weak, and if they are poisoned, even the angels will be in pain.

What made the faces of all the Emperor ** soldiers change even more was that the number of poisonous dragon flies and bipedal wyverns that attacked was extremely amazing, far beyond the information they knew, and the enemy was obviously prepared, they hid in the woods, withheld it, and ignored the attack of the Emperor **, until the Emperor ** entered their ambush circle, and then suddenly launched.

But these are just the beginning of the emperor's nightmare, and their enemies are not just poisonous dragon flies and bipedal wyverns.

From the filthy mire, a six-legged monitor lizard broke through the mud and crawled out with great speed, and threw himself into the crowd to bite and bite, and occasionally someone was hit by their petrification ability, turning into immobile stone statues; Many of the holes hidden in the trees, a fierce bull with a strange red glow in their eyes also rushed out, they spread their powerful hooves and ran through the forest, using the sharp horns on their heads to fly all the emperor ** soldiers who dared to block their path into the air, and some of the unlucky soldiers who came home had already withered on the ground when these brute bulls rushed in front of them, and that was because the racial ability of the brute bulls died suddenly due to the death gaze of the brute bulls.

This ability of the brute bulls is quite domineering, as long as it is a living creature, even if it is a dragon, if you are not careful, you will have to capsize in the gutter against this weird eye of death, if it is not for the fact that the probability of success of this ability of the brute bulls is too low, and the launch time is long, and the harsh condition that the eyes of both sides are still needed, the brute bulls can definitely rely on this ability to become the strongest creatures in the continent.

The appearance of monitor lizards and brute bulls made the battlefield in this dense forest even more chaotic, and the emperor's originally orderly offensive was completely destroyed, which was also one of Tanan's strategies, he knew very well that only by forming this kind of melee situation where you have me and I have you, the powerful hand-to-hand combat ability of swamp creatures can be maximized, and the advantages of swamp creatures in the swamp can be used to the greatest extent. The powerful magical attacks of the priests and the incredibly powerful bursts of heavy crossbows of the crossbowmen are no longer as effective as they should be.

Of course, Alfred also knew very well how unfavorable this kind of chaos was for the emperor, he roared and gave various orders, trying to make the emperor ** reorganize the formation, but it didn't have much effect, so all he could do was to gather the emperors around him, as for the farther places, everyone could only fight separately, this situation made him feel helpless and angry, but he really didn't have a good way, he knew that he had completely fallen into the enemy's trap, the enemy's strategy, the enemy's strength, The enemy's tactics, in any case, were far beyond his imagination.

Is this the power of the Witch of Fire? Alfred thought of this with great grief and indignation, and it was not easy to find that he was being played with by someone from beginning to end, but he did not despair because of this, he was confident in the combat effectiveness of the emperor.

Even if this battle is doomed, he intends to make his opponent pay a heavy enough price.

And the performance of the emperor did not disappoint him.

Despite the passivity, the soldiers fought valiantly, and although the enemy seemed to be outnumbered, they were far better trained and better equipped than their opponents, and their courage would not be lost to their opponents.

The halberdiers began to spontaneously form small formations in relatively open areas to protect their priests and crossbowmen, and to engage the enemy in a sharp formation to offset the disadvantage of the terrain, the crusaders cooperated with their actions, using their superb martial arts to fight the enemy, the priests nervously cast beneficial magic blessings on the soldiers, and also threw negative magic on the enemy's body, or used the single attack magic to attack the enemy who didn't notice them, and the crossbowmen were doing the same thing, Many of the enemies fell to their cold arrows, and some crossbowmen simply put away their heavy crossbows and joined the ranks of hand-to-hand combat with short knives in hand.

This is the army of the strongest country in the continent, this is the imperial army of the Megatron continent, although they have changed their elbows, they still deal with it well, if you want to gnaw them, you must have a good tooth.

The battle is deadlocked.
