Chapter 188: Let the corpse explode in a grand manner
The guards of Minethil Harbor saw that the friendly army fighting the fishmen outside the city seemed to sense danger, and they finally began to retreat.
Isn't it too late to retreat now? The guards began to worry, hoping that these people were safe.
One retreat, one retreat.
Under the command of the five Master Chiefs, the entire team kept retreating towards the interior of the wetland, and the distance between them and the port of Minahir became farther and farther away, leaving more and more space for the fishmen, and a large number of fishmen washed up on land. Fortunately, Verry and the other four non-commissioned officers commanded properly, if Leo was replaced, he would definitely not be able to do the difficult task of letting the team fight and retreat at the same time, and the tactical retreat would most likely turn into a rout under his command.
At this time, a strange thing happened, as the human army retreated, a corpse that fell to the ground became an obstacle for the fish-people to pursue the human army. Well, it's normal for corpses to appear when the two sides are fighting, and the reason why it's strange is because there were no corpses piling up on the battlefield before that.
The fish-people were unaware of this phenomenon, and in their case, they were afraid that if they did, they would feel that the corpses of their companions would be an eyesore and an obstacle in their pursuit of humans.
Chase, chase, the farther away from the sea, the better.
Leo was pleased with the development of the battle situation, and the fish-man's approach was exactly what he expected to see.
Fish-men from Minahill Bay came ashore in droves, and the land, which had been empty due to Leo's retreat, was filled with new fishmen.
Seeing the surging momentum of the fish crowd, Verry couldn't help but wipe a cold sweat. Fortunately, Lord Leo has crows that can scout in the sky, so that we can detect the movement of the fishmen in advance, otherwise so many fishmen will rush up at once, and the whole team will be encircled even if they are not overwhelmed.
Once again, Pelicion was ignored.
"It's almost, I can't go back."
After estimating the distance, Leo felt that it was enough, and gave the order to the team to hold on. At this time, in addition to the hellhound Wolf Irrigation Heart and the demon imp, all his pets such as Huma and Dinopincer have been sent out to help the warriors resist the increasingly fierce attacks of the fishmen.
Swish!
The Union flag was thrown out by Leo, and the appearance of this flag lifted the soldiers' spirits.
"Wait a minute, give it to my master, don't be weak."
Leo hadn't been able to improve the corpse explosion technique, so he had to say hello in advance, because the scene created by this spell was too nerve-testing for even a seasoned veteran to resist.
Corpse Explosion? That's right, don't forget, Leo is a necromancer in addition to being a warlock on the surface.
Bang bang......
There was a louder thud than the burst of muskets, and the corpses of the fishmen lying on the ground suddenly turned into bombs, exploding one after the other. Large swaths of the fish-men were killed by the corpses of their companions, and after the deaths of the fishmen, their corpses were transformed into new bombs.
Due to the tactics used by the fish-men in a swarm, this leads to their unreasonable positioning, and many places are crowded with people, and these are the places that Leo's corpse explosion chooses first.
The corpse explosion technique is worthy of being a magic skill that can be juxtaposed with summoning skeletons among necromancers, and in Leo's rapid casting, the number of fish-man casualties has increased geometrically, but in just five or six minutes, more than 20,000 fish-men have arrived under Leo's corpse explosion technique.
Rather than frightening the Fishmen, the mass deaths of their companions have only fueled their murderous surnames, and until they have been taught enough lessons, native creatures like the Fishmen who rely on their own surnames will not have any thoughts of retreating, and all they can think about is how to kill their enemies.
The fish people did not retreat, they still rushed forward fiercely, Leo was naturally happy, and the corpse explosion technique was used so much.
Verry froze as he watched the scene, believing that the others felt the same way as himself. The shock that Leo brought to him was too great, originally he thought that Leo was already very powerful, but who expected that this chief would have stronger means. The spell that made the corpse explode looked evil, but it was undeniable that the killing effect of this spell was not ordinarily strong, especially on the battlefield.
Anything may be missing on the battlefield, but there is no shortage of corpses. As long as there is a battle, how can there be no immortals? Leo's unknown spell was nothing short of terrifying in the Great War. As long as he exerts his full strength, the results he can create alone will not be inferior to that of a group of mages accompanying the army.
And the only scruple with this spell is what happens to the corpses of your own dead in battle?
If the bodies of one's own people are also used as explosives after they die in battle, it will not be accepted by the people.
Okay, I worked hard in front, but after I died, the corpse was still fiddled with by you like this, who wants?
Seeing that the soldiers didn't have much disgust, Leo breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, just as he seized the opportunity to use the ability to absorb corpses in Dammod, he now wanted to make the corpse explosion technique appear in everyone's field of vision.
It doesn't matter what ability is evil or not, most people have this idea: as long as it is beneficial to themselves, then they might as well let it exist.
The ability to absorb corpses was not met with strong opposition for the first time, and there would be no pressure to use it in the future, and the same is true for corpse blasting. As long as the first level is passed, this necromancer's group brush magic skill will gradually be accepted by the world.
Time passed, and the battle continued.
Although the corpse explosion technique made the battlefield a mess, its efficient and powerful group injury ability made the battle easier, and the fishmen who could rush over the dense corpse explosion were relatively few, and most of them were seriously injured, and the soldiers suddenly felt relieved.
The guards at Minahir Harbor were completely stunned, still worried about the friendly forces fighting outside the city as the fishmen poured ashore, hoping that the friendly forces would be able to evacuate.
But now, they don't think about it anymore, this friendly force from the wetlands is simply too strong to be said, and in the face of the attack of tens of thousands of fishmen, this team of only 3,000 people is not only not defeated, but is killing fishmen on a large scale.
A force of 3,000 men faced an enemy twenty-three times its size, and not only showed no signs of defeat, but even its own casualties seemed very small, how high must its combat effectiveness be to be like theirs? What kind of strong man is an officer who leads such a team?
If the guards of Minahill Harbor knew that no one was killed in this friendly force fighting outside the city, not even seriously wounded, I don't know what their expressions would be. It must be very exciting.
Pulling out a bottle of magic potion and drinking it in one gulp, Leo once again replenished the mana consumed, this was the third time he had used the potion since he performed the corpse blast, during which he also used the life diversion to exchange physical strength for mana, but it was still not enough.
Even with a magic skill such as the corpse explosion technique in his hand, he gradually developed a feeling of being difficult to parry when facing the fish-men who were surging like a tide.
The magic consumption of the corpse explosion technique is not large, and it is very difficult to use up Leo's magic power with such a spell in normal times, but now it is different. No matter how small the magic consumption is, it will also be consumed, and after ten minutes of frantically using the corpse explosion technique without stopping, Leo's mana began to run out of steam. If it weren't for the fact that he had enough magic potions on him, if he hadn't been able to trade his physical strength for magic as a warlock, his mana would have been exhausted.
This is where the power of the crowd tactic lies, using a large number of corpses to pile up powerful opponents. Drain your mana, drain your stamina, and see how you can still make it?
Of course, the casualties of the fish-people who spent so much time with Leo were also huge. The total number of fishmen involved in the attack on Leo's team is about 70,000, and there are less than 20,000 fishmen still alive. That is, in less than half an hour, the number of fish-men who died was close to fifty thousand, and half of the fishmen who besieged the port of Minahir died.
When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty fought against the Huns, the fierce man Li Ling fought 100,000 with 3,000. Leo felt that his current record was not bad compared to that fierce man, and he led 3,000 human soldiers against 70,000 fishmen - although the opponent could only be described as 'unarmed', killing more than half of the opponent, and not a single soldier of his own was killed, how many people could do it?
A large number of companions died, and the number of their own men decreased again and again, and the fish-men were finally frightened. The remaining fishmen stopped attacking the human army, and they turned around and ran towards the sea.
The fish-man is going to run!
"Can't let them run away, chase me!"
Leo gave the order, and all the sergeants shouted in unison and began to pursue the fleeing fishmen.
Three thousand men pursued and killed nearly 20,000 fishmen, a scene that shook the guards of Minethil Harbour very much. They also wanted to join the pursuers, but on the other side of the city, the nearly 30,000 fishmen in the harbor did not dare to act rashly. They could only hope that the friendly forces outside the city would kill more fishmen.
Any creature must be faster than usual when fleeing for their lives, and the speed of the fish-people is not slow, and they quickly approached the sea after running for their lives, and seeing that they were about to flee into the sea, a high-pitched dragon groan suddenly sounded.
In the shocked eyes of the guards in Minahir Harbor, a red dragon with a length of nearly fifty meters appeared in the sky, and the dragon power emitted by the red dragon made them feel a sense of fear in their hearts that they did not dare to resist.
This is true for the port guards who are far away, and the fishmen who are directly below the red dragon are even more unbearable. These fishmen had already been beaten by the human army without fighting spirit, and now they were facing the coercion of the red dragon dragon power, and one by one they immediately lay on the ground and did not dare to move.
Seeing that the scene was exactly what he expected, Leo smiled with satisfaction. Since the fish-man has lost even the courage to escape, and just lies on the ground and closes his eyes to die, it is no wonder that he is ruthless.
"Kill!"
