"Fire oil!"

Taking advantage of the fact that hundreds of skeletons were blocked by the arrow towers, the human soldiers at the head of the city immediately smashed a barrel of pungent fire oil and wooden barrels down the city, and threw torches at the same time.

"Boom!"

The oil drum fell from the top of the city more than ten meters high, and immediately split apart, and a large stream of viscous fire oil was also splashed out, sprinkled all over the radius of more than ten meters. As soon as it encountered the source of fire, it immediately burst into flames, sweeping away hundreds of skeleton warriors together, and all of them were burned into charcoal in a matter of moments. As a result, even the Priest of Death will no longer be able to summon new Death Golems from the useless ashes.

Seeing that the first wave of three hundred undead warriors was killed or wounded in a blink of an eye, the skeleton snipers who were watching the battle from behind seemed indifferent. It was only ordered that the remaining hundred or so skeletons continue to join the city and storm the "Night Fort", while another 500 skeletons were sent to follow and support.

"Teacher, the undead's offensive is so fierce, and it starts with a tough fight. It's a pity that there are no lichs to suppress the defenders of the city, and even ten times more skeletons will only add fuel to the gas. Julian watched the battle, half excited, half disdainful.

The old marquis only nodded his head in this regard, but did not comment. Because Iserren still doesn't believe that the Death Preacher would make such a lowly mistake to discredit himself.

At this moment, the skeleton sniper in front of the "Night Watch" suddenly took a step forward, and the black smoke swirling around his body also roared violently. When I looked at it again, I saw that the arm bone of one of the arms stretched out by the Undead Extreme Dao suddenly deformed, turning into a huge bow, almost as tall as the sniper himself. Then, in the black gas swirling on all sides, strips of black silk were inexplicably pulled out, twisted into a strand that seemed to be virtual and real, and attached to the bow body transformed by the bone arm to become a bowstring.

At the same time, behind the snipers. There were also two hundred skeleton warriors standing up in two columns, and each skeleton also had a bone as a bow, a strange string, and took out a bone arrow from the fur backpack behind his back, and bent the bow to open the string.

"What!? Skeleton Archer!? ”

This is a new undead class that has never been heard of before, and it is not only the first time that the four Human Templars have seen it. Even Moriarty has never found any such information in the Coalition's archives.

"These skeletons must be the new hole cards secretly cultivated by the Holy Spirit Temple, but they were brought to Dawn Fortress by Jahugh, replacing the traditional lich as far more than the main attacker."

Following the "Wolf's Head Army", today saw the new two hundred skeleton archers, and Moriarty couldn't help but secretly sigh that the Holy Spirit Temple family had a great cause and many means. And every hidden hole card is played, which is enough to shock Dejia and even Quan Da-Lu.

Of course, the most shocked at this moment was Julian, who could even be called a slap in the face on the spot. I couldn't help but blush a little.

"Julian, carefully observe the offensive and defensive characteristics and shooting patterns of these skeleton archers, and record them. Then send the information back to the royal capital as soon as possible! ”

The old marquis didn't care about the student's secret shame at all, and just said in a deep voice.

The emergence of a new undead combat unit, especially a ranged unit, is not only a problem for Dawn Fortress, but also a threat to the entire human kingdom, and it must be studied and formulated as soon as possible.

"Yes. Teacher! ”

"Ready!"

At the same time, it finally gathered momentum. The skeleton sniper slowly stretched out his right hand, grabbed it on the strings woven of black gas, and pulled back violently.

Immediately, a jet-black bone arrow appeared out of thin air and stopped between the bowstrings.

"Shoot!"

The next moment, only a sharp and long howl was heard. The sniper should be the first to fire his bow and arrows.

Like a meteor, the jet-black bone arrow slashed through the air in a straight line like ink, instantly hitting the middle of an arrow tower.

"Click!"

As if being hit by a heavy battering ram, the arrow tower was immediately shook, and a large hole with a thick bowl mouth had appeared in the center of the tower. Inside, several human archers were killed in seconds for standing along the trajectory.

But what is more serious is that after such a blow, there is a crack on the surface of the tower like a spider web, which has affected the stability of the building structure. If you break it a few more times, I'm afraid that the arrow tower will collapse on the spot.

And with this terrifying arrow, the two hundred skeleton archers in the back also released their arrows collectively. Raining bone arrows immediately filled the sky, raining down in a towering arc towards the numerous human defenders on the city walls. What's even more terrifying is that the tips of these arrows also have a trace of death power, carrying the effect of rotting, paralyzing, pain, or toxin. It was the Death Priest's Order's magical effect that had only been added to the skeleton archer, which increased the attack power of the bone arrow by more than two times.

When the rain of arrows fell, a large number of casualties were immediately killed and wounded on the "Castle of the Night's Watch". In particular, humans did not expect that the undead had other ranged combat units besides the lich, and there was no targeted defense, and the bone arrow with the death magic was indeed sharp, so hundreds of soldiers were shot and killed in one look. A large number of other soldiers fell to the ground wounded, wailing from the rapid decay of flesh or the unusual pain.

For a time, the head of the "Night Watch" city was like a pot, and there was no order.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, a large number of skeleton warriors rushed to the city safely and immediately began to climb up. The sharp phalanges are also very suitable for cutting through the uneven gaps in the city wall, straight up. Only half a minute later, the first skeleton warrior had already stood at the head of the "Night Watch".

"Get rid of them!"

Only then did the wounded be cleared aside, and the newly reinforced human sergeants immediately launched a counter-assault on the undead who had come up one after another under the guidance of several middle-level warriors, in an attempt to quickly fill the loopholes and restore the integrity of the front.

At the same time, several crossbowmen in the tower also aimed at some of the powerful undead in the skeleton for key sniping.

"Shoot!"

At this time, a new wave of arrows rained down outside the city, completely ignoring the mixing of humans and undead enemies, and only ruthlessly covering the whole area.

Immediately, dozens more human defenders were shot on the spot by the indiscriminate shelling of bone arrows.

What's even more terrifying is that the skeleton sniper once again took control of a jet-black bone arrow, aimed at the already damaged arrow tower, and blasted out with one arrow.

"Glory!"

In the next second, a golden light lit up, and it instantly gathered into a huge chain flail and swept through, hitting the bone arrow.

"Boom!"

There was a deafening sound, and the bone arrows were completely shattered, and most of the three spiked hammer balls of the golden flail were destroyed.

At this moment, a straight figure appeared in front of the flail and stretched out his hand. The flail flew into his palm. Then another golden glow swept through, and the damaged hammerball was restored to its wholeness.

That person was the fourteenth-level Human Sanctuary "Light of Glory" Bakare.

As if forced by the momentum of a powerful enemy, the heavy black smoke in front of the skeleton sniper also rose violently, and then quickly diffused, completely obscuring itself and the large area.

This black smoke is not really tight, though. But in it, the skeleton powerhouse can be completely invisible. Even with extreme spiritual induction, he could only find out that there were a large number of undead in the black smoke, but it was impossible to judge which one was a sniper.

"It's actually a cover-up realm, and this bone arch pole is also very smart."

Looking at the skeletal sniper who had disappeared, Moriarty nodded slightly.

But when the hundred columns of the gate in the sky above the city saw it, they frowned. Originally, he planned to take the opportunity to highlight the outside of the city and kill the other party, but now it is much more difficult.

At this moment, a pair of human arrow towers began to concentrate their fire on the array of skeleton archers in the distance.

Because of the high superiority, the human crossbow bolts do not have supernatural effects. But the impact was not trivial, killing or wounding many skeleton archers at once. Immediately, the pressure of the undead on the head of the "Night Watch" city was greatly reduced for a while.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the human warriors also began a second wave of counterattacks, dividing and surrounding the hundreds of skeleton warriors who had already rushed to the city wall, and they were all wiped out in the blink of an eye.

Immediately afterward, two more barrels of oil were poured down, and a raging fire burned under the castle. Block the subsequent army of the undead.

"It's a pity that Bailiemen couldn't take out that bone arch pole in the first place. For city defense. Such a thirteenth-level powerhouse was more threatening than an ordinary fourteenth-level powerhouse. Seeing that the undead temporarily slowed down the offensive and withdrew his troops, Julian couldn't help but say with a little regret.

"There was no mistake in the handling of Bailemen. We don't yet know where the death preachers are hiding, and if they strike rashly, they will only fall into the trap. Iseron shook his head, his expression serious.

The first round of offensive and defensive battles seemed to end in victory on the human side, but after only ten minutes of fighting, at least 200 people in the "Night Watch" were either injured or wounded. It already accounts for 20% of the total number of defenders. Such a rate of casualties is unbearable for any general. If there are more such "victories", I am afraid that the night watchman will die.

On the other hand, the undead, although they lost more than twice as many skeleton warriors as the defenders, but they just didn't hurt. Not to mention the fact that there is still a steady stream of undead in the Black Forest who rush to join the war, as long as time allows. This loss will soon be replenished.

Therefore, compared with the two, mankind is only barely tied or even lost in terms of grand strategy. And all this is "credited" to the emergence of a new undead class - the Skeleton Archer.

"Those two hundred skeleton archers must be destroyed, otherwise the undead priest will be too much of a threat to us!" The old marquis pondered for a moment, and then resolutely spoke.

"Teacher, did I just take the 'Thunder' and swoop out once, and cooperate with Bailiemen and Inscosai to knock out those archers?" Seeing this, Julian immediately asked for battle.

"It's too early." The old marquis hesitated for a moment and shook his head: "We must wait for the 'Night Watch' to try to attract the attention of the undead, especially to lure the thousand zombie legions over." Otherwise, no matter how elite 'Thundering' is, it will be difficult to break through the double blockade line arranged by the undead heavy soldiers and the death knights. ”

“… Yes, Teacher. Although he was a little reluctant, Julian chose to obey.

After waiting for about ten minutes, the fire in front of the "Night Watch" was finally extinguished, and the skeleton army once again divided into several hundred-man teams and began a new round of assault on the city.

It started with the collective exchange of human arrow towers and skeleton archers, but this time the Necromancers not only held up a temporary magic light film for ranged combat units, which can weaken the lethality of human crossbow arrows, but also attached a new death force effect to the skeleton archers.

When hundreds of bone arrows roared into the sky and rowed towards the castle, not only did most of them concentrate on the injured human arrow tower, but there was also a strange layer of green flame attached to the arrows, like the legendary ghost fire of the underworld.

Eventually, dozens of arrows struck all over the tower, only to be immediately bounced off by the hard iron bricks. But what is amazing is that at the dozens of landing points, patches of green flames suddenly burned as if they were infectious. And without any fuel, extremely high temperatures appeared, burning large and small pits in the walls of the arrow tower out of thin air. Moreover, there are obvious traces of corrosion in all these pits, which destroy the stability and structure of the iron bricks themselves bit by bit.

"Phosphorus fire?" Moriarty's brow furrowed as he looked at the tower, which was almost covered in green flames.

Phosphorus fire is arguably one of the most vicious flames in the world, and it can only be tempered from corpses. Not only does it have an extremely high temperature after ignition, but it can even burn on its own for a long time without any substance. Especially when facing an enemy, once a living organism is burned by phosphorus fire, it is almost impossible to extinguish it. In addition, the phosphorus fire will also ignite the existing phosphorus in the bones, and the entire victim will be burned from the inside.

Now the skeleton archers are gathering fire with phosphorus rockets, which is to bring down the human arrow tower with all their might. While a single burn is not an immediate effect, a few more repetitions can cause massive damage to the walls of the tower. Combined with the breaches and chasms that had previously been pierced by the Skeleton Sniper, it was only a matter of time before the tower fell.

When the human defenders of the castle looked back in horror, the skeleton general also came to the bottom of the arrow tower, and stretched out his left hand, wearing a black leather glove, and pressed it against the wall.

Suddenly, a cold air floated, with a trace of mystery, spiraling up around the entire arrow tower in an instant.

In just a few breaths, all the green flame phosphorus flames were extinguished under the cold blowing of Xuanguang. However, the cold air was always only half an inch apart from the arrow tower, and it did not touch the iron brick itself at all, nor did it cause any additional damage. This kind of control is a miracle.

Seeing this, the "Night Watch" immediately erupted in cheers, showing the greatest respect to the skeleton general they revered, and at the same time, the morale was greatly boosted.

"Awesome!"

There are many extreme powerhouses whose overall strength surpasses that of Inscose, and Moriarty has also seen a lot. But the character who can control his own strength to such a subtle point is the first time he has encountered it, and it has also made him feel a lot of emotion and even admiration.

And one thing is clear, when the overall strength cannot be immediately improved, being able to control every bit of strength as you want and make it to the maximum effect is equivalent to obtaining additional strength replenishment.

From this point of view, although the Skeleton General is "only" level fourteen, its true combat power is likely to be very close to that of a level fifteen super powerhouse, which can be described as a "true extreme way".

"Julian, you should look to Inscose as your goal and example. Whether it is military strategy or combat skills, he can be called the most outstanding person in the kingdom in the Mesozoic era. At "Castle Thunder", Iserren told his students the same. (To be continued......)
