Chapter 194: Doomsday Guard
Kael'thas returned to the group, and the empty space ahead of him was quickly taken over by the orcs.
Under the night sky, the elves were completely surrounded in the middle of the small space.
All kinds of magic light and arrows flew out from the elves, barely resisting the orc's attack a few meters away.
A warm white glow rose from Kael'thas.
It was the priest's treatment, and Kael'thas ignored it, riding on top of the white bird, scanning his troops.
The thousand-strong troops, stretching for nearly 100 meters, seem a little long.
"The front stops first, let the troops behind come over, and shorten the distance between the front and back!"
Kael'thas ordered.
Units that are too long can be easily truncated, and when combined, they increase firepower and reduce the number of enemies around them.
The elves in front stopped their advance for a moment, clearing the enemies around them, and then waited for the troops behind to join.
However, Kael'thas soon saw that the scene was starting to be a little crowded behind.
He thought for a moment, then said:
"The number of people in the back is too crowded, clean up the orcs around you remotely, and move forward in a triangular formation!"
"Yes."
Immediately, a team leader went to arrange it.
After three minutes, the elf's line was shortened to 30 meters, and the whole team smoothly formed a triangle and stabilized.
30 meters, an excellent distance, even the innermost priest can just heal the melee fighters a few meters next to the team.
And, surprisingly, this formation achieved unexpected results.
Because of the shortening of the distance, a large number of rangers and mages lined up together, and the elves' long-range firepower suddenly increased, slowly destroying the surrounding enemies, and the distance between the two began to widen.
"It's enough to maintain a distance of 15 meters from the enemy, and rest in rotation with extra range."
Seeing that the situation had stabilized, Kael'thas gave orders.
He then saw some wounded, somewhat tired warriors and rangers still fighting on the periphery, and hurriedly pointed to them and said:
"You are injured, don't hold on, go back to receive treatment and rest first, and let other companions take over!"
Now, there are some extra numbers, so it can be done.
Some of the elves who were about to lose their heads nodded and slowly retreated to the group, and the few warriors in the team who were not used because the battle line had become shorter immediately came out and took their place.
After clearing the 15-meter area around them, it could be maintained with eighty percent of the firepower, and some rangers and mages had time to rest and began to prepare to recover their mana.
At this time, the pastors gradually figured out the method, and except for some pastors who treated the periphery, most of the pastors began to restore and treat the group surname.
Such spells are very effective when the crowd is crowded, and it also puts little pressure on the priests, so that their spirits that have been tense begin to relax.
"Let's go!"
Kael'thas hasn't lost sight of his goal, and now that the team is stable, they can move on.
Is tonight's action too arbitrary?
He thinks this way occasionally, but he made this decision for many reasons.
No one knows how far the Horde's plan has gotten and whether it has succeeded. Plus from the beginning of the war, although Kael'thas they have been winning, it is undeniable that the elf has been passive, and he needs to take the initiative to save the situation.
Otherwise, the elves will continue to be pursued by the elite orcs, continue to let the tribe's personnel roam the border, and in the end, no matter whether the tribe infiltrates Hinterland or plots something, the elves will face an even more dangerous situation.
That's why Kael'thas launched this attack.
He was mentally prepared, but he still thought that it was impossible for his powerful team not to destroy a cave.
It turned out that the other party was even weaker than he thought, but the warlock's strength was beyond his expectations.
A high-level warlock, plus the demons he summoned, the overall strength, under the legend, is almost invincible.
Their only weakness is the main body, but the horde's low-level soldiers have defended them, leaving the elves unable to act.
For now, the only way to get to the cave is to get to the cave as soon as possible.
Kael'thas followed the group and slowly walked towards the cave, believing that once it was within range, the elves' spells could destroy the cave in an instant!
The orc warlocks seemed to understand this, and summoned more demons in front of them, only suppressing the advance of the elven ranks.
It's a pity that in the current formation, the speed of the elves is still moving slowly.
However, it wasn't long before Kael'thas discovered that five orc warlocks had been assembled.
An ominous premonition flashed, and Kael'thas thought of a terrible demon. He was about to call the Hammer Dwarves to interrupt them, but several orc warlocks were extremely fast, and they immediately prepared a formation, and then in the purple circle, a huge demon with wings came out.
The last guard!!
It was a terrifying demon that exuded great strength and malice, its skin blood-red and bat-like wings stretching out from its back.
"The Last Guard."
This was no ordinary demon, and even Mephites frowned.
The Last Guardian is the ultimate pet that Warlocks can summon, and although it has been weakened in the later versions of the game, in the early version, this demon can even kill the player.
Kael'thas clearly remembers that at the beginning, in order to summon this demon, it took 5 people to summon it together, and after the summoning was successful, a random player would be sacrificed (to be said, it was to reduce the amount of blood that exceeded the player's life in that version at that time), which shows how powerful this demon is.
Luckily, now this Doom Guard is summoned in an ordinary way, and it seems that it can't be a very powerful demon, and it can still fight.
"Your soul is mine."
When the last guard came out, he laughed and drained the soul of a warlock, and the other died without resistance.
"This fragment is for you!"
The remaining four warlocks hurriedly gave each of the last guards a soul fragment, and it put it all away without hesitation.
"So, are the elves the opponents?"
The last guard then turned to look at Kael'thas and them, as if he knew them.
"Yes, I'm sorry for you!"
A few warlocks nodded, and depending on the situation, this demon seemed to be more like a master than them.
"No problem."
The last guard nodded, then flapped his wings and flew from the sky.
"Destroy it!!"
Kael'thas hurriedly commanded, and as soon as the words fell, the elves' spells blasted towards the last guard.
The icy arrows and flames hit him, making the guards feel cold and hot.
[Seems to be strong]
The last guard has always been proud of his high defense, and he felt the power of the elves' spells, and couldn't help but take two steps back.
It pulled out its arrows, looked at the ground, and then grinned, grabbed the two orcs, held them in front, and advanced against the elven spell.
This is really demonic
Every elf who saw such a despicable act thought so, but there was nothing to do.
"A little gift for you!"
At the end of the day, the guards flew in, and suddenly they laughed, not knowing what they were thinking.
Then there was a rain of fire in the sky.
The rain of fire fell in the center of the elven procession, and the mages, where the priest was, quickly and with great difficulty, raised the protective shield for the priest and withstood the pressure of the fire rain.
Cunning demons.
"Knock it down!"
At this moment, even the Hammer Dwarves, who knew nothing about the demon, realized the horror of this demon, and in order to prevent the demon from moving forward, they immediately surrounded the demon and shot arrows at it.
"Get out of here!"
The last guard flew quickly, took the orcs, knocked a few of the Hammer Dwarves away, and then ignored them and landed directly next to the elves' team.
"Block it!"
Elven rangers and warriors rushed towards it, but the ground shook suddenly, and the elves stood unconscious.
War trampling!
"Guy, you can't stop me!"
The last guard laughed, threw away the orc's corpse, and strode forward, the war trampling on the way continued, and all the surrounding elves fell into a coma.
Because there are elves all around, the mages are not easy to attack, and only a few rangers can shoot arrows at the last guard, and the last guard is a little painful, and suddenly catches two elves and blocks the front, so the ranger has to give up most of the attacks.
There was a collapse in the middle of the elves' ranks.
"Boom, try my new gadget"
The last guard smiled, ready for the next round of attacks, but suddenly its feet were unsteady and its whole body was rotten.
"Weightless position!"
Kael'thas finally arrived, and without hesitation, he unleashed the spell.
The last guard and some of the elves floated.
"What is this!?"
The last guard fluttered its wings and tried to fly away, but the air here was as if it was not moving, and no matter how much it fluttered, it could not move a single bit.
And at this time, because it was not on the ground, the last guard could not use the war trampling, and the elf in its hand woke up, and then without hesitation, he took the sword and slashed it into the demon's hand.
"It hurts!"
The last guard was taken aback, and reflexively let go of his hand.
[It's now.] 】
The time was just right, and Kael'thas hurriedly bounced all the elves out, and only one of the last guards was left in the weightless position.
"Attack!!"
He shouted, and the elves reacted and shot all sorts of spells at the Doom Guard.
"You little one!?"
The last guard shouted angrily, and it chanted the incantation, as before, without guidance, and a rain of fire fell above Kael'thas head.
Unfortunately, Kael'thas completely accepted this rain of fire with a calm face, and the special surname of the Lord of Flames made him almost unharmed.
And the last guard, anyway, was just a high-ranking demon, and soon only wailed and died under the spells of the elves.
[Solved]
Removing the weightlessness stance, the corpse of the last guard fell to the ground, and before Kael'thas could relax, he suddenly heard the terrifying breathing of the elves.
Well?
What's going on?
Kael'thas looked back
A hundred meters in front of the elves, the orc warlocks gathered together, and in the sky above them, a meteor shower fell
Dozens of meteorites that exuded a powerful aura fell from the sky
The entire battlefield fell silent in an instant.
