032, Attack on the Church of Dawn (2)
About half an hour ago, the 3rd Brigade was clearing the last goblin stronghold in Loglin Land, and after clearing this stronghold, they could go out of Loglin Land to join up with soldiers and mercenaries from other directions and go to Chili Mountain for the final battle. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The seven timberwolves summoned by Adam performed very well in the battle. Ordinary goblins have no room for resistance in the face of the timberwolf's sharp teeth and sharp claws, and often the moment they are pounced, their throats have already been slashed and they lose their lives.
Doberman did not hesitate to praise him, "Your summoned beasts are truly brave, and what is even more incredible is that their cooperation with the soldiers is really amazing." If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it was just a summoned beast, like a professionally trained warrior. ”
One thing Doberman was right, they were indeed warriors, but they were the Templar class.
As Adam pretended to be modest, a timberwolf let out a low growl in one direction, then ran to his side and gestured to him.
"What happened?" Doberman, who was with Adam, also saw the abnormality of this timberwolf and asked curiously.
Not only this timberwolf, but the other six timberwolves also roared in that direction together, and the hairs on their necks almost stood on end, very anxious.
Judging by the consciousness coming from the timberwolves, it seems that they are saying that there is an enemy ahead. But according to Adam's knowledge, there is no such thing as a goblin stronghold.
"They sense that there is an enemy ahead." Adam patted the Timberwolves on the head.
At this time, the three commanders also came over, and they looked at each other, "But this is the last goblin stronghold, is it another stronghold that we don't have mastered." ”
Adam communicates with the Timberwolves, and his excellent perception and keen sense of smell allow the Timberwolves to get more information.
"No, not a goblin." Adam said in a very affirmative tone, "It's probably an ambush!" ”
Out of trust in Adam, the three commanders decided to tread carefully.
Soon after, they sent two scouts to explore the front, but found no information about the ambush. And Adam's seven timberwolves are still looking ahead very vigilantly.
The three commanders consulted with Doberman and decided to trust Adam once. After all, if such a thing as an ambush really encountered, it would be a big mistake and loss for them.
As they approached a small hill, Adam finally noticed that something was wrong, there was not a trace of dark energy in it.
In this universe, there are six most basic energies and elements, two energies of light and darkness, and four elements of earth, water, air, and fire, which are scattered in every space in the entire universe.
It can be said that even the best garden can have a little bit of dark energy, and there is no way to do it, unless a priest like Adam uses a dispel to dispel all the dark energy in one place.
But not far ahead, there was not even a trace of dark energy in Adam's perception, it was obvious that it was man-made. Combined with the abnormality of the timberwolves just now, it is already clear where the enemy is ambushing.
When Adam shared the news with the three commanders and Doberman, they realized the gravity of the matter again.
In the absence of dark energy, there is a high probability that it will be attacked by an unexpected enemy, the Church of the Dawn. As for how the people of the Church of Dawn bypassed the ash forest and ran into the territory of the Seven Cities Federation, they were unclear for the time being.
At this time, Arras offers a very interesting scheme.
So when the third brigade was about to reach the small hill, they began to rest in place as planned.
Some of the soldiers rested in front to paralyze the enemy who were lying in ambush here, while the archers hid behind and began to prepare for an attack. When Adam felt the spell fluctuation coming from near the small hill, the archers shot their arrows at the location Adam was pointing.
"Be careful!" The three commanders heard an angry voice coming from ahead, and then saw an elderly priest in a robe appear in front of him, and he added a magic like an eggshell to protect himself.
The arrows landed on the shield and all slipped to the side, unable to hurt him at all.
But the other priests were different.
Out of trust in invisibility, they emerged from hiding unguarded, preparing to join forces to unleash the spell of Stonepiercing.
But at this moment, a dense barrage of arrows came at them. The priests wore soft priestly robes, unlike the soldiers' armor that could withstand one or two attacks, they were like the best targets, and the blood that flowed through their fragile bodies quickly turned it into a place of bones.
By the time the first rain of arrows had passed, most of the priests who had been ambushed had already been killed or wounded.
In the face of a sudden attack of arrows, they had no room to resist at all.
To make matters worse, the priests who escaped by not being hit by the arrows, because the spells they were preparing were forcibly interrupted, and they were immediately attacked by the spells, and the results were no better than those of their companions who died under the rain of arrows.
Spell backlash is a very scary thing that generally occurs in two situations.
One is that the strength is not enough to forcibly release spells that you have not mastered, and uncontrolled magical energy and elements will flow around the body, causing great damage to the body, and it is more likely that the body will be torn to pieces by violent magical energy and elements.
In the other case, like the unlucky priests just now, when the spell is forcibly interrupted, whether it is an external factor or an internal reason that causes the spell to be interrupted, they will be attacked by the spell.
At this time, the biggest possibility is that you need to withstand the damage of the half of the spell effect that is about to be released.
The priests screamed, pierced by the sudden rush of thorns from the ground, and wailed to death. Originally, the target of these ground thorns was the third team, but now it was their turn to taste the effects of the spell themselves.
The only good thing is that the priests who were supposed to unleash the fire arrow spell in the second team have not yet started preparing for it, otherwise they would have to face trapping themselves in a sea of fire.
But now their situation was not much better, and the priests lost their usual demeanor and desperately searched for a place to hide, but a second rain of arrows continued to fall before they could find them.
At this time, the soldiers belonging to the Church of Dawn hidden in the rear rushed up with shields on the orders of Tarn, trying to protect the fragile priests, but in the face of the long-prepared attack of the third brigade, they watched helplessly as the priests fell to the ground and lost their lives.
To add to the soldiers' despair, the mages in the Third Brigade struck out, causing them a new round of damage caused by flames, wind blades, and arcs.
The old priest couldn't believe his eyes, it was clear that they had a chance to put the third team of Falcon City into a spell trap of despair a moment ago, but after only a few seconds, the form was completely reversed, and they were experiencing unprecedented despair.
Watching the priests brought from the noble council fall to the ground one by one and lose their lives, the old priest could not bear it any longer.
These priests were the backbone of the land that he and his companions had painstakingly cultivated in the land of the Noble Council, and given enough time, they would become a pivotal force in the Noble Council.
But the young priests, who would have influenced the future, lost their lives under the relentless rain of arrows. Only a few priests protected themselves with defensive magic, and now they also looked like frightened fawns with a frightened look on their faces.
"Attack!" The old priest roared angrily, waved his wand in his hand, and an orange fireball erupted from the wand and attacked where the archers were.
Although the priests of the Church of Dawn claim to be the most adept at healing and defending, they clearly have more means of attack than traditional white mages.
The Lord of Dawn is a god of the light lineage, and it is natural that the most and best part of the divine art system he has established is the corresponding attributes of the light energy, healing and defense, which is determined by the priesthood field of the Lord of Dawn.
But as a priest of a god, it is impossible not to have a means of attack, otherwise he will not be able to deter the enemy. As a result, the gods often add spells from appropriate elemental magic to their unique system of magic.
Whether it's the Stone Piercing, the Fire Bolt, or the Quicksand Trap that the priests intended to use, they are all part of the magic system that overlaps with magic. It can be said that with the support of the gods, the priests can be regarded as the most extensive spellcasters in each elemental field, but they are not proficient in each field.
In the old priest's resentful eyes, the fireball technique did not hurt the archers of the third brigade in the end.
Because at the moment when the fireball technique was about to fall, a shield that emitted a soft light suddenly appeared in the air, blocking the fireball technique.
