Chapter 60: Fighting Back
Of course, the undead side is not the only one, and when the Sea of Bones is about to be wiped out, another group of skeletons came as reinforcements.
This batch is only about 400 skeletons, which is only half of the first batch.
However, this is not a misuse.
After easily destroying the skeletons, Roger sent Mom and the Druid Elders down to rest first, while he sent out all the Qi Elemental Elements to scout with a big grin.
However, there is a group of qi elements that quietly follow the traces left by the skeletons when they come.
After getting the information he wanted through this group of air elements, Roger also went directly back to his tent to rest.
However, this night, Tuna finally did not go to his bed again, but kept leading the rock elemental troops outside to prevent the attack of the undead forces for the whole night.
In the middle of the night and close to the early hours of the morning, two more groups of skeletons came to harass, but the early warning of the scattered qi elements was easily solved by Tuna.
Obviously, the strength of Roger's elemental legion was somewhat beyond the expectations of the undead forces, so that the temptation of the Sea of Skulls could not be carried out after only half of the temptation.
After all, the low-level skeletons were defeated too quickly, and they were completely unable to form a continuous offensive.
And without continuous offensives, the low-level Sea of Bones is completely like delivering food to the enemy.
This is actually not surprising, the Elemental Legion rarely haunts the main plane in the first place. Even the heroes who passed some of the elemental trials mostly used the elemental legion as cannon fodder during the demonic disaster.
As a result, now that they have officially faced the Elemental Legion, the undead forces were stunned to find that the Elemental Legion that had become an establishment was not at all worthy of the Undead Legion!
The same sleepless Elemental Legion that doesn't need vision makes the undead's nighttime harassment offensive completely head-on, and one-sided war.
And the undead who are good at fighting and fighting against the elemental legions, which are elemental beings, no matter how they win or lose, it means that the undead will not be able to use this to replenish the lost troops.
After all, it was elemental life, and there would be no corpses and souls full of negative emotions that the undead needed.
In this way, this has evolved into a war in which the undead forces lose even more money no matter how you look at it.
This suddenly made the head of the undead side very nerve-wracking.
As Roger estimated, this undead force is just a vampire family in the undead country that has lost its backstage due to partisan strife and has to leave the undead country.
At this time, the patriarch of the vampire family, the legendary undead hero Vampire Grand Convention Sephine was troubled by this elemental legion.
Grand Duke Josephine didn't really think that this elemental army was very strong, after all, what was used for comparison was just some cannon fodder skeletons, and he couldn't see the true strength of these strangely shaped elemental troops.
Because of this, Grand Duke Josephine only roughly estimated the strength of this elemental legion as a "fifth-order" army. After all, judging from the various reactions of elemental creatures, although these elemental troops look a little strange, they are not those high-level or even top-level intelligent elemental lifeforms.
As an undead hero, he still has this eyesight.
He didn't notice the existence of the earth elemental hero Tuna, and he didn't pay attention to the fifth-order troops who had been only about six hundred people at all.
Even if he escaped from the realm of the undead to this swampy area, the arrogant vampire Grand Duke still habitually despises the legions of the living, even if the legions under the command of the living are a little unusual.
Grand Duke Josephine was confident enough that the undead army under his command could easily crush this elemental army.
However, after all, this is a fifth-order elemental legion, even if he is confident that he can easily crush this elemental legion, it is obvious that the casualties of the undead legion under his command will definitely be inevitable.
So Grand Duke Josephine hesitated, after all, there were not many troops under his command, and there was still an important dark canopy to build, and there were not many supplies left in his hands.
In a short period of time, if he loses a large number of troops, he will not be able to pay for the supplies needed to recruit the alchemy undead troops.
In order to deal with this army, a lot of troops have been lost, and it is neither able to nourish the war with war, nor can it replenish the lost troops in a short period of time, no matter how you look at it, the gains outweigh the losses.
And it would be bad if the legions of the church heard the wind again and ran over.
Archduke Josephine, who had this in mind, finally made a decision that he would regret later.
For the time being, rely on the Sea of Bones to defend against this elemental army until the dark canopy is completed.
After ordering his children to monitor the movements of the Elemental Legion and constantly send skeletons to harass them, Grand Duke Josephine went straight to the location of the Dark Canopy, where he was going to personally urge the necromancers to direct the undead under his command to build the Dark Canopy.
On the other side, Roger, after exterminating the attacking skeletons in the early hours of the morning, hastily ate some food, and set out with the entire army of the Elemental Legion.
Although there was still a considerable distance from the depths of the Misty Swamp, the fog in the vicinity was so thick that you could only see the environment within five meters, and in the darkness of the early morning, it was completely impossible to see your fingers.
However, with the [Eye of Knowledge], Roger is very easy to see through everything around him.
Of course, it's useless for him to see it alone.
A group of qi elements led the way in front, and Roger directly led the large army that cast the second-level strategic magic of the qi system: "camouflage**" followed behind the air element.
Through the concealment of camouflage, Roger and the Elemental Legion cautiously followed behind the air elementals, and every time he encountered a lurking undead sentinel, he had to carefully distance himself and then bypass it.
Camouflage ** is actually quite a chicken strategic magic, it can only cover the figure of the troops and the footsteps and other noises made when the troops are moving.
If that's all there is to it, then there is still merit in this strategic magic.
However, due to the limited effect of camouflage, it cannot completely cover the figure of all troops! Even Roger, who had reached the level of master-level qi magic, could only barely cover up the main force, and deliberately exposed the qi element at the forefront.
Camouflage, camouflage! Camouflage**To put it bluntly, it relies on visual deception, relying on the revelation of one unit and hiding the rest of the troops.
The unit that can't be hidden must be the strongest force in the ranks.
Since it only hides its body and voice, in fact the troops are still there, so once you get close to the enemy's troops, the camouflage** will still be ineffective.
So Roger could only carefully bypass all the undead sentinels along the way.
When the two sides are engaged, it is impossible to keep their strongest troops secret. When the two sides are at war, it is impossible to completely conceal their own figures.
The shortcomings of this kind make camouflage completely chicken.
Now, during the exercise, when the scout reports that only one strong class unit has been found, heroes who have received a formal hero tutorial can consider the possibility of camouflage. After all, under normal circumstances, no hero would be stupid enough to go out with only one army.
Therefore, camouflage ** has lost its original strategic significance, and it is only mentioned in the current hero tutorial that when the enemy tries to sneak attack, camouflage ** may be used to cover the whereabouts of the troops.
In fact, there are not many heroes who still care about such a strategic magic, and now this strategic magic among Terran heroes is close to being lost.
Now, however, the strongest forces of the Druid Elders and a portion of the Elemental Legion have taken refuge near the makeshift camp. And the rest of the troops, the whole army is the same rank of the elemental legion, and the effect of this chicken rib strategic magic has been fully exerted to the maximum!
The undead forces who saw the action of the air elemental through the "eyes" lurking everywhere did not react to this.
After all, in addition to this group of gas elements, there are other nine groups of gas elements that are being investigated.
It's the same as usual, except that there are a little fewer reconnaissance units today.
On the other side, the Druid Elders and the remaining Elemental Legion have been carefully guarding against all undead creatures that may be close to the camp.
However, after the cleanup of Roger and his party a few days ago, no undead troops are trying to get close to this area anymore.
As the sun rose, the surrounding fog became faintly thinner in the sun, and the early morning sun could often be seen shining a little spot on the ground through the fog, and the troops left behind were obviously relieved.
After all, these days, whenever the morning comes, the undead scouts will quietly retreat.
Ina Emerald was holding Roger's Heroic Banner, her expression was obviously dissatisfied, but she was still quietly alert to her surroundings, ready to strike at any time.
With the help of the cover of the fog, Roger led the troops and smoothly followed the air elements to find the traces left by the skeletons that attacked last night, and traced them all the way back.
In fact, the undead forces probably didn't expect that the fog was a good location, and the enemy could actually borrow it.
The so-called geographical advantage is originally relative.
The Everglades and the Mist are geographically advantageous for the undead, but they are also advantageous for Roger and his party, who are in dire need of cover at the moment.
The two sides barely leveled.
Although the undead side actually still has the advantage of defending the city, it no longer has a strategic advantage over Roger and his party.
At the moment, Roger's only concern is; How far away is the place where the undead summoned the skeleton from his makeshift camp.
Although judging by the timing of the skeletons' attack, the place where the skeletons were summoned should not be far from the camp. But it's hard to argue that the undead forces don't have the means to protect these fragile skeletons during the day.
It should be said that such means must be available, after all, most of the undead classes will be quite limited during the day.
It's just that it's just a skeleton used to harass, is it qualified to use these methods?
Roger, who was unaware of the various abilities of the undead forces, could only speculate from various signs.
Such speculation is undoubtedly quite unreliable.
The only thing that is certain now is that there are two locations where the skeletons are coming, and both are not on the same line as the undead stronghold found by Roger's air elementals.
So just in case, now Roger is on a hurried march with the Elemental Legion, targeting the point where the number of skeletons is high.
However, in order to avoid the undead sentinels along the way, the speed of the Elemental Legion was completely unfast, after all, there were too many eyeliners arranged by the undead side.
It was almost noon, and just when Roger began to get a little anxious, the storm element and thunder elemental who were responsible for leading the way slowly stopped.
Got to the place?
Roger looked at the swamp that seemed to be empty in front of him, and the obvious abrupt interruption on the ground, remembered the vanished crow before, and guessed that there might be enchantment protection here.
There was no time to study slowly, so Roger directly chose brute force cracking.
The jasper bamboo, which contains a lot of natural magic, directly "stabbed" into the enchantment, and through the continuous conflict between the vitality of natural magic and the magic of the undead in the enchantment, the entire enchantment was directly shattered!
"Bang!"
With a crisp sound, what appeared in front of Roger and the others was a huge cemetery.
The necromancers, who had already summoned many skeletons, turned their heads to look at the elemental legion that suddenly appeared, and they were all stunned, but under the noon sun, they all suddenly screamed in pain.
The undead troops who were responsible for guarding the place completely ignored the damage caused by the sunlight and quickly approached in the direction of Roger and his party.
Without waiting for Roger's order, Tuna charged directly with the rock elemental.
Roger, on the other hand, looked at the red-robed "necromancers" who were screaming and showed their fangs outside their mouths, and nodded with satisfaction.
It's a vampire, that's good news!
