270, Hump Fort Attack and Defense (9)
Countless sharp ice picks shot out from the pale blue magic array, slamming into the trebuchet on the ground and the crowd around it.
The earth changed color in an instant, and it was crystal white—the light reflected from the ridges of ice that pierced the ground; Blinding red—the blood that flowed from the dead corpse, white and red were intertwined to form a bewitching picture.
The rich smell of blood dissipated with the howling wind, and at the same time, there was an inexplicable cold.
"What the hell is going on?!" Earl Bilgard watched his trebuchet be destroyed, and roared angrily, "Mr. Crabbe! Mr. Gower! Didn't you promise that with you here, you would definitely be able to suppress the mages of Prarell's Territory! Now how do you explain this? ”
"Lord Earl! We did say we could crush our opponents! A middle-aged man in a gray cloth robe and a pointed hat with a slender figure as thin as a bamboo pole said coldly to Earl Bilgard, "But as we also said, it was at the level of the other party's strength as you described. But do you see this is the same as you said?! The thin mage gestured to the ruined array of trebuchet positions. The two magic spells that fell there just now, one is comparable to a 'meteor fire shower' with a small power! An 'ice meteorite' that expands its range! Both of these spells are spells that can only be mastered by high-ranking warriors! In other words! There are at least two high-level mages on the other side! And its strength is only higher than me and Crabbe! If Crabbe and I hadn't retreated in time when the situation was not good, we would have just been buried under the opponent's spell attack! You have concealed from us that the other camp has a mage warrior of this strength, do you want us to die?! ”
"Calm down! Gore. After all, we are dealing with a noble earl, and the necessary courtesy is still necessary. The companion beside the Thin Mage—the fat man who had been called 'Crabbe' by the Thin Mage—frowned at his companion, then turned to Count Bilgard and said, "But as my companion said. Lord Earl, we are at a great disadvantage by the fact that you have concealed information about the enemy from us. If we tell the owner about it, I'm sure the owner will be quite upset, and the time will ......."
Mosara Birgard's face turned a little red when he heard this, and the words and deeds of the two mages in front of him, one fat and one thin, undoubtedly embarrassed him, but he couldn't attack. Because there is a big man behind these two people, and this big man is something he can't afford to offend.
"Two, there's really no way to do it." Count Bilgard finally swallowed the anger in his heart, and tried to adjust his emotions to make his tone appear soft. "I didn't expect that Kasha's little girl to actually entrap a powerful foreign family some time ago, I think those high-level spells were cast by the people of the other family."
"Hmph, I don't even know the strength of the foreign aid invited by my opponent. Your spies, Lord Earl, seem to be incompetent shit. "The thin mage 'Goyle' folded his arms in his hands, and pouted disdainfully on his chest.
"......" The blue veins on Earl Bilgard's forehead flashed, and he continued to persuade with kind words: "In this way, I promise to add thirty percent to the remuneration of the two, and please do your best to help me conquer the hump fort in this battle." ”
Crabbe and Goyle looked at each other and exchanged eyes with each other.
"Okay. For the sake of money, the two of us continued to help. "Fat mage Crabbe should take a bite.
"Okay, okay." Count Bilgard watched the two mages go to the front line, and a hint of fierceness flashed in his eyes. Then he was seen giving orders to the heralds: "Order the whole army to forcibly attack the city." Then he looked at his knights. You're on it too! Be sure to take the Hump Fort. ”
-
At the same time, inside the Hump Fort.
Seeing that the trebuchets of the Bilgard army on the opposite side were destroyed, the morale of the Prairly army was greatly boosted, and while the other side was preparing to assemble a team to storm the city, the defenders were also trying their best to treat the wounded and prepare the equipment to defend the city.
In previous rockfall attacks, more than half of them landed at the head of the castle, and a small number flew over the walls and fell into the castle. In addition to smashing many battlements and walls, the defenders also paid more than 20 casualties.
Even the alchemy soldier troops under the command of the Xuanyuan Adventure Group were also damaged in the enemy's rockfall attack, three alchemy archers were directly hit by the flying stones thrown by the trebuchet, one alchemy archer immediately ran out of durability (life) and dissipated into debris, and the other two were smashed and part of their bodies could not continue to fight, in order not to reveal their identities, they could only be temporarily put aside and left alone, fortunately, if the injured alchemy soldiers were ordered to stop their activities, they would really lie there and not move, but it was not easy for outsiders to see through their identities.
The traversers, on the other hand, are paying attention to the situation of their companions while arranging their defenses.
After Song Fei and Xu Wenjie successively cast a large-scale attack spell to destroy the enemy's trebuchet position, they both showed exhaustion, and were discovered by their companions around them and taken away from the city in time, hiding behind cover to be examined.
"How are the two of them doing?" Li Xiang looked at Fu Bin and asked.
"It's okay." Fu Bin didn't have a worried look on his face, and it seemed that the results of the inspection were not too early. "Lao Xu's mana consumption is too large, so it seems a little out of strength, and the next battle will be a little affected for him. Song Fei, on the other hand, was a little more serious - her mana was completely exhausted, and she needed a long rest to recover, and she was afraid that she would not be able to participate in the subsequent battles. ”
"How can this be?" Li Xiang asked distressedly.
"It can't be helped." Fu Bin pressed the bridge of his nose. "The Warcraft class inheritance we have has changed a lot compared to the game. For example, the two of them have a wide range of attack magic - except that this has not changed, both the attack power and the coverage have been greatly increased compared to the game. Similarly, the cost of skills has increased dramatically. If we cast spells excessively, it will also affect our spirit while the mana is depleted. ”
"Lack of endurance is key." Yang Qianyu came to the two of them at this time, and after hearing the conversation between the two, he stepped forward and said, "If the inheritance of the Great Magician wants to fully exert its strength, an abundant supply of magic power is a necessary condition, but it is a pity that Song Fei's several advances have not succeeded in cultivating the 'Brilliant Aura'. Now she has powerful attack magic but doesn't have enough mana to cast it, like holding a machine gun but not enough bullets, and she can't use it to her full strength. ”
"Is there a way to make up for this shortcoming." Li Xiang asked.
"In addition to continuing to advance and increase the upper limit of mental power, the only way to learn skills that can speed up the recovery of mental power is to learn as soon as possible." Fu Bin shrugged his shoulders and said: "Of course, taking a magic recovery potion is also a way, but unless you really don't have time to recover on your own, I don't recommend this method - after all, reality and games are not comparable, and God knows if there will be any side effects if you take a large amount of potions for a long time." ”
"Let's discuss these issues later." Yang Qianyu glanced at the direction of the battlefield, and suddenly interjected: "The enemy troops on the opposite side have begun to assemble in large numbers, and it seems that they are planning to attack." ”
As soon as Yang Qianyu's words fell, he heard the sound of the horn on the opposite side, and immediately saw that the military formation of the Manchado army began to move towards Hump Fort as a whole, and in front of each military formation were dozens of knights in fine armor.
"Those are the knights of the Serpent Knights of Count Bilgard!" Yang Qianyu saw the eye-catching poisonous snake crest on the armor of those knights, and immediately recognized their identities.
"It seems that this battle is about to heat up." Li Xiang subconsciously clenched the grip of the war hammer.
