Chapter 227: Wind Chimes Echoing in the Forest (8)
As they walked through the broken corridor, Chen Kai and the others had already felt a slight vibration on the ground, and when they passed through the corner, the vibration was even more obvious, and they could even hear the sound of weapons and bones colliding in their ears. At the same time, Chen Kai and the others also heard the elf's cry, which was a very immature voice, obviously the crying elf was still very young.
When Chen Kai and the others stepped out of the corner, the first thing they saw was nothing else, dozens of undead elves with red flames shining in their eye sockets. The biggest difference between these undead elves and the undead who attacked Chen Kai was that they retained their flesh and blood, so they looked more like undead creatures like zombies or death knights, rather than the white bones of the undead who attacked Chen Kai.
Relatively speaking, the undead with flesh and blood are more high-end than the bone undead, even after reaching the lord level, unless the emperor in the bone creatures is the other, the undead with flesh are more powerful than the undead. Looking at these dozens of undead elves with gray faces, Chen Kai's first move was not to rush up directly, but to stop their footsteps and stop quickly.
It's just that the sound of their footsteps still made those undead find out, so the next moment Chen Kai and the others saw the heads of at least twenty or so undead elves turn around, staring at them with burning orange eyes.
"Pillars! Vertical shield!! Chen Kai's footsteps quickly scurried back, and then Zhao Tiezhu scurried forward, directly erecting his dwarf shield in front of him. Because they all saw the dozen or so undead rushing over with the elven knives in their hands, these undead elves didn't follow the usual path at all, relying on their terrifying movement speed, and even rushed directly along the wall.
In the next moment, at least seven or eight elven long knives beckoned towards Chen Kai and them, and Zhao Tiezhu's shield was obviously unable to protect such a large area, so he could only activate his earth shield to unfold an oval-shaped earthy yellow barrier.
"Don't hit at the same time!" Staring at the seven or eight fallen elven long knives, Zhao Tiezhu gritted his teeth hard and prepared to withstand the impact, while Chen Kai, who was standing behind him, had already held the half-purified Longinus spear in his hand. This weapon absorbed a large amount of evil dragon blood in Runmaran, and for this reason, Chen Kai and the others had to consume a large amount of divine attribute magic power almost every day to purify, but after such a long time, the evil aura on the weapon was still very strong. However, in this rich evil power, there is a little more intense divine power. After Chen Kai's fighting spirit was stimulated, the spear that originally exuded an evil aura began to exude a strong divine aura instead.
"Click!" Although Zhao Tiezhu tried to pray that the attacks of these undead would not hit the earth shield he had unfolded at the same time, the earthy yellow shield still shattered the moment it was hit. After all, there are six long knives that hit the shield at the same time, and even if the power has been completely reduced, it can still break through the protection of the shield of the earth.
At the moment when the earth shield released by Zhao Tiezhu was broken, the Longinus spear in Chen Kai's hand was also thrown out by him, and the spear containing a large amount of divine power and magic power instantly tore through the air and flew into the body of an undead elf that flew in front of Zhao Tiezhu. The rich divine power erupted in an instant, and the point where the evil power on the undead elf that Chen Kai saw was the most intense, that is, the place where it was penetrated, spread towards the surroundings. The next moment, the undead spirit turned directly into a flaming flame, until its body completely turned into char and fell to the ground, still maintaining the posture of wielding a weapon.
The spear that pierced it at the same time did not stop by shooting through an undead elf, but continued to extend backwards, penetrating three or four elves before penetrating the ground. It's just that although the elves who were hit behind were also ignited with holy flames, they were not directly burned to death because they didn't hit the vital point like the first one, but the blows they received were not light, and the total damage of thousands of points of damage added up to more than 20,000.
It's just that after the spear was thrown, Chen Kai couldn't use it for a second attack for a short time. Because these undead elves who rushed over had already pounced in front of them, long-handled weapons were not as good as short-handled weapons in the case of short-handed combat. In fact, the space in the elves' building is actually not small, and if it is replaced by a human house, Chen Kai's body can't even straighten his waist at all. At the same time, the top of this corridor is very high, not to mention very wide, so Chen Kai can wield his giant sword here, but it is only limited to slashing and stabbing, if you sweep, then I'm sorry that it will cut into the wall on the side.
When Chen Kai swung the giant sword in his hand and slashed down, Zhao Tiezhu had already resisted the slashing of the elf long knife several times. The sharp long knife left white slash marks on the dwarven shield in his hand, but none of them broke through the shield's protection. After all, although these elven long knives were sharp, they were not top-level weapons, so they couldn't be cut through this special purple shield from the Black Dwarf Kingdom at all. After all, this shield is also a dwarven royal tower shield. When retreating from Lava City, Chen Kai and the others collected a lot of weapons and equipment left by the dwarves, most of which were returned to the black dwarves, and only a few things were kept.
It's just that most of the time, Zhao Tiezhu only uses the repaired shield of protection, because this dwarven shield is too heavy, and he needs to pestle the lower half of the shield on the ground just when he holds it in his hand. Otherwise, he would have lifted it for a maximum of three minutes and his body would be exhausted. So he is now a stake, and he can only stand still in place. Of course, this kind of immobility does not mean that he is completely immobile, that is, he is waiting for death, and Zhao Tiezhu, who is standing in place, will constantly adjust his position and use his shield to meet the enemy's attack. Then try to block most of the undead elves' attacks.
After all, Chen Kai and the others lined up in a row, blocking the attack route of these undead elves, so that they could not pass through everyone, and hurt the mages and black dwarves behind who had not had time to catch their breath. However, Chen Kai and they are not completely lined up together, Chen Kai's body alone is destined that if he and others stand in a row, then Zhao Tiezhu and they don't have to do anything else. All of them have to dodge the weapons wielded by Chen Kai.
Therefore, Chen Kai wanted to stand in front of the others, and it could be said that he was stuck in these undead elves like a war knife. When he jumped out, the remaining metal wings behind Chen Kai had disappeared, and all the metal feathers were shot out by him with his fighting spirit, causing a blow to those undead elves. It's just that this practice has made Chen Kai lose the ability to use metal wings to cover himself for protection, and he doesn't want to use the metal wings on his back until the battle is over to recover those feathers.
After jumping out, Chen Kai directly slashed down with a sword, and the huge sword body slashed directly at the body of an undead, and the additional divine fighting qi instantly invaded the opponent's body, turning the slashed position into a rag pocket in an instant. White smoke kept coming out of the position where Chen Kai had slashed, and the undead elf who had been hit opened its foul mouth and yelled at Chen Kai.
It's just that this open mouth was hit by a Mithril zuò cross magic bullet the next moment. Then Chen Kai saw a Holy Light Cross more than thirty centimeters tall appear in an instant, directly blasting the head of this undead elf. There was no doubt that it was the Black Dwarf who fired the bullet, and this attack was also a test to test the effect of the bullet after it was reloaded. At the moment, it seems that the effect of such bullet attacks is not bad, the only problem is that it is a bit troublesome to recover bullets. But these bullets must be recycled for the dwarves, because they are all made of Mithril, and each bullet costs dozens of Mithril coins of Mithril.
In just a few strokes, the dwarves emptied the Mithril bullets in the musket, but the number of undead spirits killed and wounded was less than half the number of bullets. The most troublesome thing about reloaded bullets is that the runes on them are easy to destroy, and this is the case with those dumb bullets, where the most important cross divine attack consumes all stored divine power without being launched.
Looking at the scrapped bullets, a few black dwarves were a little depressed. This situation meant that their idea of reloading bullets seemed to be shattered, and unless they found a large amount of Mithril, the maximum number of these bullets would be ten per person. Because the black dwarves are also very poor, so poor that they have to share the spoils with Chen Kai and them in order to have money to buy wine and drink. Of course, they can also receive money directly from Chen Kai, but in this way, their status will change from their current partner to subordination, so the dignified black dwarf would rather work hard when he fights than change from a partner to a subordinate.
The killing of several undead elves naturally reduced Chen Kai's pressure greatly, and as the spells of the mages fell one by one, the pressure brought by these undead became even lower. It's just that Chen Kai and the others forgot that when they inflicted damage on these undead elves, they actually increased their own danger. In less than a minute, Chen Kai and the others had killed nearly ten undead elves, but the next moment they found that the number of undead elves who turned around and rushed over was more than twenty more.
It's just that Chen Kai and the others are under increased pressure here, and on the other hand, the elven city lord and the few elven elders who escaped with their lives are under a slight decrease, although in general, it is definitely not small fish and shrimp that can put pressure on them. Although the strength of these undead elves is not bad, it is not enough to cause trouble for a few elven elders and the city lord. In fact, it was this situation that made Chen Kai and them feel that they seemed to be a little overpowered, and then the pressure that had just been reduced rose again, after all, the undead spirits standing in front of Chen Kai and them now brandishing weapons added up to nearly thirty or so.
"Zodiac!" Looking at the undead elves crowded in front of him, Chen Kai felt that the pressure had become even greater, as he would be hit by the opponent at least three times if he slashed out an attack. Even if the armor is strong enough, the health will be reduced under such a blow.
"Sorry! The boss has a spell reinforced on the ground, and I can't summon the earthen wall! "Zodiac looked a little ugly, the saddest thing about being an earth elemental spellcaster was to come across a place that had been reinforced by spells. In such an environment, many earth elemental spellcasters' spells to change the terrain are almost ineffective, and their combat ability is greatly limited.
"!" Hearing the other party's words, Chen Kai knew that it was impossible to complete the tactic of using the earth elemental spell to build a wall to divide the enemy. Fortunately, there are many broken stones on the ground, which have been turned into small ground spikes under the control of the ecliptic. Although the damage is small, it is extremely abrupt.
"Is there anything else I can do to stop it?" Chen Kai shouted to the back. Chen Yi's aura continued to reduce the health of these undead elves, and white smoke began to rise as they approached. But the damage caused was not high, because the strength of the undead elves was not bad, and Chen Yi also had to share his magic power to restore the lost vitality to others. Although Faye Wong and Alyssa helped, her aura effect was still the best, and the increased defense of the protective aura alone could effectively allow Chen Kai and them to reduce the damage caused by the blow.
"Yes! Let's get out of the way, there's a wall around the corner to block it! Xu Fei said slowly, but it was obvious that they couldn't retreat now, once they retreated, those elven city lords and a few elven elders who had just heard the news of reinforcements would really not be able to hold on. So they can't go back. And you have to keep pushing forward.
"Then let's hold on a little longer!" Chen Kai sighed helplessly, and then swept the giant sword in his hand hard, although this time because the corridor was a little narrower, Chen Kai almost slashed the wall on the side. But this time, several undead were swept out and flew out directly by Chen Kai's giant sword, although it was not a fatal blow, but it made Chen Kai breathe a sigh of relief.
While Chen Kai and the others were fighting against the increasing number of undead elves, Aaron, the city lord of Lorraine Elite, looked behind him with a bitter expression. Although he could already hear the fighting of reinforcements, he knew better that he would not be able to hold out for long. How could Aronel not think of Morn, who was also an elven elven elder? Sanye and Lorte? Yue has turned into an undead, and it is also a very powerful kind When the other party took out a weapon and stabbed into the bodies of the two elven elders from behind, Aaron was directly stunned, and he was not able to react in a short time.
If it weren't for another elf elder pushing him, maybe Chen Kai would have seen Aaron's body lying on the ground when they entered the council hall, and the knife grazed his waist and almost stabbed this elf city lord a little bit. The raid of the two elven elders on the council chamber killed four of them in a short period of time. And when a few elven elders came back to their senses, the gate was broken open by the undead elves who rushed in.
An elven elder who was close to the gate was directly cut into a corpse by the undead elves who rushed into the room, and Aaron saw that the situation was not good, and quickly activated the protective spell of the council hall and escaped from it with several other elven elders. After retreating into the corridor, they eased up slightly, but at this time, they found that the two elven elders who had become undead directly broke through the spell protection and rushed in, so a battle quickly unfolded in the corridor. This was also the scene that Chen Kai saw when he rushed into this corridor, but what Aaron didn't expect was that several of their elven elders and city lords combined were unable to block each other, and they fell into a disadvantage at the beginning of the battle and had to keep retreating.
When Chen Kai and the others appeared, Aaron and the others had already retreated to the last room, which was the resting place of Aaron, the elven city lord, where his wife and children were located, and the cry that Chen Kai and the others heard was made by his youngest daughter. It's just that at this moment, Aronel doesn't have much combat power. A narrow wound on his waist was constantly gushing black blood, and it was this poisoned wound that made the strength of the powerful Elven City Lord continue to decline and become extremely weak. In fact, it wasn't just him, but several other elven elders as well, so now they were all extremely weak against the door, barely resisting the onslaught of the undead outside.
Although relying on their own strength, several elves have already expelled most of the toxins from their bodies. However, the remaining residual toxin still wrapped around several elves like maggots on tarsal bones, making their bodies constantly weaken. Even if the elves whose strength has exhausted have reached the Holy Domain before, they are now only ordinary sixth or seventh order.
If it weren't for the fact that they had seriously injured the two elven elders who had become undead before, perhaps Aaron and the others would have been unable to block the attacks of these undead elves. Now these elves can only rely on the protective spells that have been attached to the door of the thick room door to withstand the constant onslaught of the undead outside. The wooden door had begun to groan under such an impact, but all the elves had no way to reinforce it.
"Hopefully they'll be able to hurry!" Aronel clutched his belly, all the power he had recovered was used to suppress the toxin in his waist. Because he had the deepest poison in him, and he didn't notice it at first, he fought for a long time, and the venom almost spread. Now he can only excrete venom little by little, and at the same time he is expelled from his body, and there is also blood contaminated with toxin. At the current rate of bleeding, Arun could be unconscious if he lasted ten minutes at most, and if he passed out, there was no doubt that the protective spell he had accused would disappear, and then the people in the room would definitely be finished.
It's just that Aronel knew that the gate would not last for a few minutes, because the elves outside were wielding weapons and destroying the structure of the door. Chen Kai didn't know about this, they only knew that it was very difficult to advance now, and the sound of the weapons in front of them kept ringing out, telling them that the battle was still going on, and there were still people alive inside. But the problem is that they simply can't move forward quickly in a short period of time.
It would take nearly a minute to kill an undead spirit at the fastest, and there were at least thirty undead elves in front of them, which meant that even if they increased their speed in the back, it would take a long time to be able to rush in front of Aaron and the others. (To be continued......)
