Chapter 269 Out of the City (7000 words to be sent)
Despite Teglisa's reluctance, the first wave of attacks arrived, but not on all sides of the city, but only on one side.
New Sain, who was on the battlements, could tell at a glance that this was just a test of the undead scourge, because the people sent out by Tegrisa were all low-level undead, and there were no skeletal warriors except for a few dozen stitching monsters.
Looking condescendingly at the slowly approaching undead scourge, New Sain did not rush to let the soldiers attack, but only ordered the attack when the undead scourge was completely within the range of the shooters.
Suddenly, accompanied by the herald's voice, tens of thousands of arrows fell like a dark cloud, only to see that the undead scourge below was instantly emptied.
After a neat volley, Synsain began to order his troops to shoot accurately, and to be honest, this condescending shot was simply too easy, and in the case of gravitational acceleration, as long as it hit the target, it was sure to be shot through.
At this time, I saw the gargoyle in the sky squeaking and rushing towards the city of Thos, and seeing this, Xin Sain hurriedly asked some of the archers to aim at the approaching gargoyle.
However, there are too many gargoyles in the sky, and these gargoyles themselves also have the property of hardened skin, and the five thousand archers, most of whom are rookies, have too limited damage to them.
I saw that after two consecutive rounds of bows and arrows, the gargoyles had already rushed down, but only to hear a series of 'bang bang bang' sounds, these gargoyles crashed into a despicable membrane, causing ripples like water ripples, this magic shield is one of the effects of the magic array in Soth City.
It was still the lowest power of the magic circle, but it was enough to block the air attacks of the gargoyles and undead griffins, and when the gargoyles were blocked out of the magic cover, the archers of Soth City shot down a gargoyle with two consecutive rounds of arrows.
Seeing this, Teglisa in the rear snorted lightly, which immediately caused the gargoyles and griffons to retreat, and then Teglisa even let the low-level undead who had just reached the bottom of the city wall retreat.
This is the end of the first undead scourge attack, which is quite anticlimactic, and at this time, Twilight senses that Dawn from the royal city should be there soon, so she takes out the magic communication stone from her bosom and sends a message to Dawn.
At this time, the light of the Philosopher's Stone in his hand was obviously not as strong as before, this was because the energy in the Philosopher's Stone was about to run out, which was also the reason why Twilight had less contact with Dawn recently, not because she didn't want to contact him, but because she wanted to save money.
Twilight doesn't get a reply for a long time after sending a message, which makes Twilight sit still, but after a few more moments, Dawn finally replies, but the reply message lifts Twilight's heart again.
"Teacher, the support troops brought by Dawn from Wangcheng have been attacked." Twilight finds New Sainway.
Hearing Twilight's words, New Sein was stunned, "Where did they get attacked?"
"In the South Whistle Forest, there are a lot of civilians there, and they need help." Twilight said.
"You want to save them?" New Sain guesses Twilight's mind at once.
Immediately, Xin Sain shook his head: "No, it's too dangerous, now there are undead disasters on all sides, and if you go out like this, you will be surrounded by those undead."
"Teacher, you see that the forces of these undead are not evenly distributed, give me a team of cavalry, I will definitely be able to rush out, and I can do more when I go out to meet the morning light." Twilight pointed to the largest number of frontal undead scourges.
Glancing at Twilight fixedly, New Sain thought for a moment and said, "You can go out, but I don't want your mind to get faint from the morning light."
"Teacher, my mind is clear, and I am perhaps more useful on the periphery than on the inside." Twilight said firmly.
When Twilight said this, New Sain also thought of Twilight's ingenuity, and he didn't say anything more, but said, "Okay, if you think about it, I'll pick out a thousand cavalry from the guards and give you another thousand horses, but the riders will have to be picked from your dreadnoughts."
Following one of the lieutenants of the guard arranged by New Sein to the cavalry camp, Twilight first gathers the 1,000 cavalry, then to the Dreadnought garrison.
"Emilio, help me pick a thousand soldiers who can ride horses, preferably Dreadnought veterans."
Hearing Twilight's order, Emilio knew that there was an action, he didn't ask much to gather the soldiers, there were still many soldiers who could ride horses, Emilio found some among the veterans, and the rest were not enough to find the soldiers who were originally part of the Third Legion.
Soon the two thousand cavalry were assembled in the school field, and looking at the cavalry in front of them, Twilight shouted loudly with a war roar: "I will take you out to rescue your comrades in a while, I can tell you that this time your sacrifice may be great, if you don't want to go, it's too late to quit now."
Twilight's words immediately caused some discussion, although the skill of war roar can arouse people's fighting spirit, but it is only useful for those who have courage, and it is not very useful for those who are weak at heart.
"People die and birds are facing the sky, Darius warriors are not afraid of death, I am willing to swear to follow the commander!" A young fearless soldier roared first.
"Yes, people are dead and birds are facing the sky, and they are willing to swear to follow the commander to the death!" Immediately the other Dreadnought soldiers shouted along, they had followed Twilight since the beginning of the Human-Beast War, and they had a blind trust in Twilight, which is why Twilight asked Emilio to try to find veterans who had been following her.
"Willing to swear to follow the Commander!" Seeing that the dreadnoughts were high-spirited and no one was afraid of death, this also aroused the bloody nature of the cavalry of the garrison of the city of Soth, and then the other soldiers who were a little hesitant were embarrassed to speak again.
Waving her hand to stop the shouting, Twilight glanced at all the soldiers and said, "I don't force you, but once you follow me out of town, it's too late to regret it."
Seeing that no one was standing up, Twilight nodded and turned over on a warhorse, Zagrell and Heartbreaker also got on the horse, and Setis also got on his warbear, in fact, he didn't need a horse at all at the speed of Heartbreak, but Twilight let him ride a horse just in case.
"Let's go!" Seeing the 2,000 cavalry on the school grounds, Twilight roared and walked towards the gate to the east of the city.
The city gate in the east of the city is much smaller than the north and south city gates, this is because the city gates in the east and west of the city are auxiliary city gates, and the north and south city gates are the main city gates, if you want to save Dawn, the best city gate is the south gate, but Twilight observed and found that the undead disaster in the north is the least, followed by the east side, the north city gate must not go, that is the direction of Thorn Mountain, so Twilight decided to take the east gate, which is also the farthest distance from the Tigrissa gathered under the west city wall, and it is too late to support.
"Open the gates!" New Sein was already waiting at the east gate, and when he saw Twilight arrive, he ordered the soldiers guarding the gate.
"Wait!" Seeing that the gates are about to be opened, Chashur, the middle-aged general that Twilight looks down on, rushes over and yells to stop the soldiers, while Archduke Simman follows.
"New Sain, what are you doing here?" Simon walked up to New Sain and asked.
"Let the cavalry out of the city, the reinforcements of the royal city are now under attack." New Sain said with no expression on his face.
"Now there are undead disasters everywhere outside, if you go out, you will die, our city of Soth is already short of troops, how can you let two thousand people go out to die in vain." Simman said angrily.
"Grand Duke, you said before that all the defenses of Soth City should be handed over to me! I'm not going to let my soldiers die in vain, and if the city of Soth really reaches the point where it is impossible to lack 2,000 men, then the city of Soth is broken. New Sain said with some unpleasant glance at Chashur who was standing next to Sinman, knowing that this guy must be slandering again.
Hearing New Sain's words, Xin Man was choked up, and after thinking about it, now is really not the time to get angry with New Sain, for the time being, Soth City really needs New Sain, not only needs his ability, but also needs his prestige, Xin Man just hesitated and said:
"Since you must have your own plan when you say this, then I won't stop it and open the city gate."
Looking at the slowly opening gates, Twilight snorted disdainfully at Chashur, who had no fart skills, and beckoned the soldiers behind her to line up and prepare to charge.
When the gates were fully opened, Twilight drew the Blade of Vengeance and the Destroyer of Worlds and yelled, "Brothers, arrow formation, follow me!"
"Darius wins!"
"Darius Victory !!"
Two thousand horsemen shouted and followed Twilight out of the city, and the soldiers on the walls and at the gates followed suit, marching for their companions.
Boom Boom!
The undead commander outside the east city gate didn't expect that someone would dare to rush out, and his reaction suddenly slowed down by a beat, when the speed of the two thousand cavalry with the dreadnought banner was completely lifted and pierced into the undead calamity like an arrow, the undead commander reacted and hurriedly mobilized the surrounding undead calamity to surround the human cavalry.
But the 2,000 cavalry led by Twilight can be said to not stop for a moment, under the leadership of Twilight, Dumb, and Heartbreaker, they crush those low-level undead all the way, even the tall stitch monsters can't withstand the attacks of any of Twilight, Dumb, and Heartless.
Just as Twilight and the others are about to break out of the undead defenses to the east, gargoyles and undead griffons hovering over the city of Soth notice the situation and scream and pounce.
"Accelerate! Accelerate!" After breaking away from the last of the undead scourge, Twilight looks at the falling gargoyles from the sky and speaks to the soldiers, as he slams his heel against the horse's belly.
There was no undead in front of him, and when he was kicked by Twilight, the speed of the war horse suddenly increased by two points, and when the speed of all the cavalry was raised again, many of the gargoyles who pounced down were empty, and when the gargoyles wanted to have a decent attack after the first pounce, it was difficult for the gargoyles to have a decent attack, because the speed gargoyles were only one point faster than the speed of the war horses, but those undead griffins were more deadly, and their speed was much faster than that of gargoyles.
Just as Twilight and the others were entangled by the undead air force, Tiglisa on the other side also received the news that a group of cavalry had broken out.
"Blue background, red cross, sword and shield emblem, dreadnought's flag?" Listening to the battle flag reported by his subordinates, Teglisa showed a sneer.
"Russell, I think you're interested in Twilight, right?"
With Teglisa's words, a man wearing black skull armor and holding a two-handed broadsword walked out of several death knight squires behind him, and a closer look at this person was Isdar's disciple Russell, and now Russell's appearance has changed greatly, not only his whole body has become dead gray, but his hair has also turned gray and white.
Russell, who has been following Isdal's side, has also followed in the footsteps of many people and has become a death knight, due to the distortion and hatred in his heart, as well as the great changes in life and death, Russell, who has been at the peak of the ninth order, has directly advanced to the first level of heroes after being resurrected as a death knight.
"Your Highness, leave it to me!" Russell smiled hideously, he couldn't look down on Twilight for a long time, and if it weren't for Isdal, Russell would have cleaned up Twilight a long time ago.
Sending a hero-level powerhouse to chase Twilight, Tegrisa is also very fond of Twilight.
Twilight and her cavalry had traveled some distance before plunging headlong into a wood
Although the cavalry could not exert its speed when walking through the woods, the woods effectively hindered the strength of the undead griffin.
In the woods, Twilight slightly discerned the next direction, and then headed south of Sostantin, but although Twilight and the others got into the woods, the undead griffins and gargoyles behind still did not give up, and Twilight and Dumb and other strong men came to the back of the team to deal with the trailing undead griffins, during which Twilight asked people to count the number of people, and from Soth City to the current 2,000 people, more than 500 people have been lost, most of them are in the hands of dead gargoyles and undead griffins.
Seeing that the woods are coming to an end, Twilight knows she must get rid of these difficult undead griffins and gargoyles, or if she finds Dawn, she will eventually attract more undead disasters.
"Lao Sa, can you set off a torch to stop the big birds behind you?" Twilight grabs Zagrel Road.
"Damn!" Sagreel's face is bitter at Twilight's words, but he begins to condense his magic.
A low chant came from Zagreel's mouth, and soon a medium-sized fire spell came out of Zagreel's hand, instantly smashing into the two griffons.
This season is about to come to the autumn harvest, it is when the weather is unusually dry, Zagreel's two medium-sized magic spells went down and ignited a leaf and branches, and finally Zagreil used the magic bracelet to use a large range of fire magic fire dragons again, which immediately completely ignited the woods to block the pursuers behind, and also killed hundreds of undead griffins directly in the flames.
Looking at Sagreel, who was tired and stuck out his tongue like a dead dog, Twilight came to the front of the group again, and then rushed out of the woods and began to run as fast as she could towards where Dawn was.
However, such a large-scale mobilization of magical elements, coupled with the smoke and fire from the fire, seemed to be a beacon for Russell to rush here in the first place.
Unbeknownst to Twilight, a man who hates him is chasing after him, and after temporarily getting rid of the undead griffons, Twilight urges the horses under her crotch to speed up as fast as she can, before the griffons and gargoyles have yet to rise.
However, soon the low-flying gargoyles flew into the air and began to hang far behind Twilight and the others, but most of the undead griffins and gargoyles did not catch up again, because their main job was to besiege the city of Soth, and it would be incompetent to distract all the air units because of Twilight's small number of people.
It is easy to find the exact location of Dawn and the others, because as long as they follow the path of the undead scourge, the stench emitted by the abomination of viruses and plagues and the rotting walking corpses will not dissipate for a long time, and most of the roads traveled by the undead scourge will be polluted, this is the road sign.
Following the path of the undead scourge, Twilight galloped with the remaining 1,500 people, and it took more than half an hour for the South Outpost Forest to come into view.
The undead scourge besieging Dawn and the royal city support forces was led by Toph to lead the Scourge, he happened to meet Dawn and others when he was chasing the fleeing human civilians, and as the hammer and commander of Dawn, it was naturally incumbent on Dawn to save his own people, and suddenly the 3,000-strong paladin army fought with 40,000 or 50,000 undead scourges.
As a former shadow mage and now a lich, Topher is a person who has experienced pain and confusion before death, and he doesn't want to go through a similar experience a second time, so when besieging the three thousand trainee Hammer Knights of Justice led by Dawn, he just hid in the rear to command, but Topher imagined that there would be a human cavalry in the rear.
Seeing the familiar golden fist banner caught in the untold siege of the undead, Twilight takes a slight look at the battlefield and begins to roar into the Scourge army.
Twilight goes straight to the location of the Undead Scourge Banner, as he finds that the Undead Commander's banner is located far away, and if he can kill the Commander, the low-level Undead Scourge in front of him will suddenly fall into a state of chaos.
Topher didn't expect the human cavalry to appear in the rear, let alone the low-level undead, so Twilight and the others rushed to the front of the Scourge Banner as if they were in a no-man's land, and at this time Topher realized that it was too late behind him.
"Stop these humans for me!" Looking at the menacing cavalry, Topher said with horror on his face.
"Stop me with something." Twilight roared and activated the runic power on the Destroyer of Worlds, unleashing the devouring power of death, and in an instant, the undead in front of him were swept away, and then Twilight's horse rushed straight towards Topher without stopping.
In the face of the onslaught of the cavalry, not to mention a ninth-order powerhouse, even a hero-level powerhouse did not dare to resist, only to see Tofer flash out at the moment of crisis, and narrowly dodged it, but Twilight would not just let him go.
In the game, Tof's boss is a dish, that is, the player crushes the role of the equipment, but here Tofo is a real ninth-order powerhouse, when Twilight controls the zhì war horse and rushes towards Tofo again, I see Tofer's dark green energy from below, and then Tofer also followed and shot a shadow arrow, feeling that the energy above his head is a little big, Twilight instantly jumped off the war horse, rolled forward, and then used the royal barrier to steadily block Tof's backhand shadow arrow, I saw that his war horse had fallen to the ground with a scream.
"Everyone is fighting in squad mode." Twilight said as she strode towards Topher with the Destroyer of Worlds and the other royal barrier, Dumb followed with the War Bear, and Heartbreak snatched from the other, while Zagreel, who was no longer able to fight, was under the protection of the soldiers.
As a member of the legal system, of course Topher doesn't want to fight with Twilight and the others in close combat, he wants to retreat to the army of natural disasters, but those low-level undead are really too weak to even block Dumb and Twilight a little, I saw that Dumb's battle axe will directly smash a piece of undead every time he swings, and even Denagostan in mid-air can spray a dragon breath to kill an undead catastrophe, plus a loss of heart that flexibly shuttles among the undead.
I can't close the distance with Twilight and the others, which makes Topher a little painful, to say that melee mages are not nothing, like many later demon warlocks are proficient in melee range, and Cimberola also has many mages with swords and staffs, but these people never include Topher, after Twilight thought that he was transformed into a lich, Topher's body must have become stiff, and speed would not be the strength of these professional personnel who study magic all day.
Such an opponent is exactly what Twilight is looking for, not only because Toffer is the commander of this undead scourge, he is now at level 79 and a half, and there is only one foot left to enter the eighth order, this Topho is suitable to be his stepping stone, but Twilight thinks so, but the result shocks him!
I saw that after Dumb swept away the undead in front of him, Twilight started the charge and rushed to Tofer in a few steps, and then slashed with a sword, according to Twilight's idea, how could this sword not directly cut off the staff in Topher's hand, but what surprised him was that Topher's staff turned out to be very strong, Twilight's sword did not cut, but only made Toffer's take a step back, not only that, a circle of cold air spread from Topher's feet, and Twilight was suddenly frozen in place.
At this time, Dumb also rushed over, facing the axe that could push half of his body, Tofer wisely did not block it, but pulled the blue light to flash, and another flash escaped, but the heart loss was already waiting on the side, and when Tofer appeared on the other side, the heart loss turned into a red shadow and rushed over, and a sharp claw hit Tof's chest directly.
However, what was unexpected was that Tofer's body was very hard, and the claws of the heartlessness were only half in, only to see that after being attacked, Tofer did not react much, and the staff in his hand turned into a stick with a black light, and the head of the heartless was smashed to the ground without checking it.
Just as Tofer made up the shadow arrow on his body and tried to distance himself, he saw an arm-thick flame fall on Topher's head in mid-air, which made Tofher scream.
Seeing that the heartless attack didn't work, Twilight suddenly thought that Topher did have a physical damage reduction feature during the game, but at that time it was just an ordinary damage reduction, I didn't expect the effect to be so strong in reality, and the defense was simply perverted, but fortunately, I watched Dena Gostan's flame attack, which shows that Tofer is not strong in magical defense, and Twilight doesn't think that Tofu can block his own attack!
Immediately Twilight put away the royal barriers, and also began to use magic attacks, at this time Topher just released an attack on Denagostan in the air, he didn't know that Twilight could also magic, in the case of dodging one arm was suddenly hit squarely, Twilight's magic arrow is at least more powerful than ordinary magic arrows, because it contains the power of desolation, after a hard bit, Tofer's withered arm fell down, but it was pierced at once.
Tofer, who was missing one hand, suddenly became less threatening, and in the face of the aggressive persecution of Heartbreaker, Dumb and Twilight, he was suppressed in a few clicks, and he could only dodge in a panic, and the skill of the flash technique could not be used often even with the strength of Tofo's ninth order, and the load on the body was too great.
Just as Twilight felt that it was only a matter of time before Twilight could solve Topher, a burst of black light appeared from Topher's staff, and a thoughtless dance forced Twilight back from the bully, followed by another flash and ran ten meters away, and then Topher screamed and sang loudly in the sky.
Twilight is speechless, this is obviously the death struggle of the villain Topher, who wants to put a big move to kill himself and others! Twilight really doesn't remember any of Tofer's bad moves, but Twilight won't let him release it despite this, and Twilight gathers energy to interrupt, but it's still a step too late!
Before Twilight could make a move, he suddenly felt a burst of heat welling up from his body, his head felt a kind of grogginess, and his body became even weaker, it felt like the whole person suddenly had a fever of more than forty degrees, it was a little difficult to breathe, and his body shook involuntarily, and it was obvious that he looked like a dumb person, and Denagostan fell directly from the air.
This is...... Epidemic disease!
How did the most useless attribute reduction skill in the game come here, and it became an instantaneous group spell!
However, this skill is useful for Twilight, Setis, and Denagostan, but it is useless for the Flesh Golem's Disillusionment, only to see that the Disillusionment quickly rushed towards Thofer when he cast the spell
At this time, Twilight stopped, and a trace of cold energy suddenly came from the Destroyer of the Worlds in his hand, and this energy that made Twilight feel cold but not exclusive as soon as it entered his body, it drove the desolate power in his body to become active in his body, and suddenly Twilight felt a sense of clarity in his mind, and the discomfort immediately disappeared.
Twilight immediately rushed forward again with the Destroyer of the Worlds, and just as Twilight was driving out the plague, she rushed in front of Tofer, only to see the scarlet light in his eyes flash, and the sharp claws grabbed Tofer's arm and bit Tofer's neck with one bite.
Topher screamed angrily, and a burst of shadow energy erupted from his body, and he was blown away in a frustration, but by this time Twilight had already arrived in front of Topher, and the Destroyer of Worlds swept through Topher's body with the light of the power of desolation.
