Chapter 31: First Victory

"Onward! Stay in formation! As the battlefield commander Sharif shouted. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After hearing the command, the guards marched in order. With so many soldiers marching, they naturally couldn't hide it from the gnolls, and they quickly discovered Xiao Yi's troops, as unorganized and undisciplined as ever, and all the gnolls who could fight rushed out in one go.

Luckily, the tribe had a more intelligent shaman who unleashed a lightning shield on himself, then howled loudly and restrained the gnolls along with another shaman who had also released a lightning shield.

The difference in numbers between the two sides is not large, but it is just a neat phalanx, and people are crowded into a human phalanx that does not say a word. Compared with those jackals who kept roaring arrogantly, charging half of them from time to time and then retreating, it seemed that Xiao Yi's side lacked momentum.

"Steady!" The shouts of the guards continued to rise and fall, directing the guards to maintain a neat formation.

The gnolls on the opposite side also did not move, the distance between the two sides was not far at this time, if he had a team of archers, Xiao Yi thought that for these gnolls with weak armor, the blow would undoubtedly be huge, but he did not have archers.

Whoosh, whoosh - the sound of arrows piercing the air was heard, and although the gnolls looked savage and unbearable, there were still some hunters. Shamans can restrain the gnolls from charging, but the hunters are the first to attack.

The haphazard and fragmentary arrow attacks had no effect on the guards with huge shields, and the weak attacks did not even make their bodies shake, and under the restraint of the guards, they still held their shields silently, looking at the gnolls indifferently.

Crackling-

The arrows didn't work, but the Gnoll Shaman quickly unleashed their stunt, the Lightning Arrow! The twisted lightning turned into an electric snake and struck the sentinel shield in the front row.

The huge impact distorted the sentry's shield, and he let out a scream from his mouth, and fell backwards involuntarily, but was soon held up by his companions behind him, and then dragged into the phalanx behind him, and his vacancy was immediately filled up.

At the same time, another lightning arrow also hit the phalanx, this lightning arrow hit the junction of the two shields impartially, and the burst arc drilled into the array along the gap, paralyzing the connected several sentinels, several people couldn't control their bodies, and twisted and twisted the formation into a little chaotic.

Following the lightning bolts, the gnolls charged to the sound of the shaman's howl, wielding rudimentary weapons and quickly charging at the disorganized enemy.

"Steady! Drag the wounded away! Seeing the chaos of the formation, the guards hurriedly stepped forward and dragged away the wounded who fell to the ground together with the sentinels, while directing other soldiers to fill the defensive line, and in an instant, the phalanx was once again impregnable!

"!" Seeing that the enemy almost disintegrated his phalanx with only two magic attacks, Xiao Yi scolded angrily and took out the magic book.

Instantly locked onto a gnoll shaman who was condensing lightning, and the fire bolt flashed in front of him, turning into a red streamer and hitting the gnoll's lightning shield. The flames collided with the lightning and exploded violently, engulfing the gnolling shaman.

At this time, the gnolls warriors also rushed to the front of the phalanx.

"Stabilize the formation!" The guards shouted loudly. The sentry guard in the front row clenched the spear that had already stretched out from the gap in the shield, and after feeling the shield in his hand sink, the spear in his hand instantly stabbed out, and then withdrew, regardless of whether he was stabbed or not, and then mechanically repeated the next attack.

"Whew-"

As soon as the two sides made contact, the jackals who rushed to the front had just smashed their weapons against the impermeable shield wall in front of them, and the sharp spears pierced their bodies, and the screams continued to sound.

Crackling-

The lightning arrow struck again, and this time the target of the attack was no longer the phalanx, but Xiao Yi, who had already released a fire arrow technique and was releasing healing to the guards. Since the completion of the City of Angels, Xiao Yi's upper limit of magic power has been slowly increasing, and now it has grown to 18 points, and when the first-level magic tower is established, his upper limit of magic power can instantly increase to 100 points!

One of the guards guarding Xiao Yi's side used his shield to resist the lightning arrow, and he also stumbled a little, but soon he was fine, and he was guarding Xiao Yi's side again.

This level of lightning arrows cannot cause serious damage to the guards, but the paralyzing properties of lightning are difficult for the heavily armored guards to resist, and only after the construction of the alchemy laboratory is completed, the development of magic resistance runes can make the advanced troops completely resist, this side effect of controlling magic.

The gnolls' formation was too scattered, and after hitting the phalanx like a tide, in the face of the rock-solid phalanx, some scattered gnolls instinctively rushed towards the two wings of the phalanx.

After Sherif killed a gnoll, he saw Xiao Yi being attacked by the enemy's mage, and although the gnoll who was attacked by the fire arrow at the same time was scorched black and looked embarrassed, he still did not fall, and he shouted: "Patton! Linton! Kristen! Go kill those two mages! ”

After hearing Sharif's order, the three of them quickly broke through the siege of the gnolls and rushed towards the shaman, who was no longer protected by the gnolls warriors!

The gnoll shaman, who had just released a lightning arrow, saw that a human being had a person charging at him, and it no longer condensed the lightning arrow, but picked up the one-handed hammer in his hand, howled, and then launched a counter-charge with his injured companion without fear!

"Hey-ha!" Seeing that this mage actually used courage to charge, Barton, who was holding a two-handed broadsword, picked up the greatsword and slashed straight down like chopping wood.

Bang - stab -

The gnoll shaman successfully blocked Barton's slash with a one-handed hammer, and at the same time, a dazzling flash of lightning erupted on the one-handed hammer in his hand, and the sharp pain of the electric shock made Barton almost throw the two-handed sword in his hand.

The moment he felt the electricity, he flew into the air, and the steel boots glowed with white light, and kicked hard against the gnoll shaman's lightning shield. The lightning shield burst into a dazzling light, arcing around Barton's thigh, but it was useless, and the skinny gnolla shaman was still kicked a few times overturned, and the lightning shield that had been surrounding him disappeared.

Before it could get up again, a shield slapped against its head, causing it to roll with great force, and then he saw a long sword with a cold light, which was being held upside down and stabbed at him.

After knocking the gnolla shaman unconscious, Christine did not hesitate to hold the crosssword upside down, and a sword pierced its head through its right eye.

"I hate magic!" When Barton saw the Gnoll Shaman die, he moved his paralyzed thighs and muttered.

The gnoll shaman was dealt with, the wounded shaman was easier to deal with, and Linton threw an axe as he approached it. The gnoll was about to howl after parrying with his weapon, when a barbed meteor hammer struck it in the jaw from the bottom up.

The blow caused it to fall to the ground on its back dizzily, and before it could react, the meteor hammer smashed down again with great force, smashing its ugly dog's head to pieces!

In a short split second, the guards were able to defeat these shamans, and if they weren't used to these unfamiliar elemental powers, it is estimated that one guard would have been able to kill these two shamans effortlessly.

The shaman was killed here, and the guards launched a counterattack under the orders of the commander! The guards in the front row pushed the giant shield in their hands forward with all their might, and at the same time stepped forward, and their companions behind them quickly stabbed out the spears in their hands.

The guards advancing layer by layer constantly pressed the living space of the gnolls, and the weak formation of the gnolls was broken through by the phalanx, followed by the collapse of the gnolls, and in just a few contacts, the gnolls lost more than eighty percent of their companions! This scared the hell out of the brutes! They wailed and fled to the tribe.
