Chapter 63: The Undead Slayer
The reason why ambush tactics have always been liked by generals is because this tactic is indeed quite useful.
However, Roger, who finally found the army of the undead, was really a little crying and laughing.
Well, he took all the Elemental Legions to ambush around the graveyard with the intention of ambushing the undead legions who came to support, but the undead legions simply abandoned the cemetery and instead ambushed the only "normal" way out of the graveyard, intending to ambush the elemental legions leaving the graveyard.
What is this......
Roger, who covered his face, was speechless for a while.
Now that the two sides are ambushing each other, the first person who can't bear it should undoubtedly fall into the disadvantage. However, he successfully discovered the ambush force of the undead and did not let the undead notice it, which gave the Elemental Legion a great advantage.
The so-called balance of war or something, it's not reliable at all...... All at once, it swayed back and forth.
But Roger immediately became annoyed again.
I have to say, a place like a swamp is really quite troublesome.
Even if he found the ambush of the undead legion, Roger would not be able to go around the other party's back and attack the other party.
But looking at the defenseless middle and high-level undead hiding on both sides of the road so honestly, it's really sorry for the undead to prepare if they don't take the opportunity to make a surprise attack, isn't it?
So Roger decisively told Mom and Tuna about this, and then assigned Tuna to command the rock elementals, Mum to command the Druid Elder and the fire elemental and the ice elemental, and he was responsible for the storm elemental and the thunder elemental.
Roger, who had summoned the Elemental Legion, touched the scroll in his arms and subconsciously tensed his nerves.
Since there is such a good opportunity, of course, we must do our best to deal with these undead legions, especially those wailing banshees.
After the air elemental reported the news, Roger used the [Eyes of Knowledge] to carefully scout the ambush site of an undead legion, and accidentally discovered the existence of the wailing banshees hiding farther away.
Since it takes a lot of time for Ghosts to get out of an object like a stone or wood, the Wailing Banshees and Wraiths don't hide in the rocks.
However, the way they hide is not very normal.
Relying on the fact that the ghost class has no physical relationship, the wraiths and the wailing banshees directly overlap their bodies, although not completely, but it is obvious that the ghosts who overlap their bodies take up much smaller volume.
Roger also counted the "hands" of the banshees that did not overlap, and roughly determined that there were ten banshees stacked on top of each other in the position of a banshee. Ten is probably the upper limit, and there are ten such banshees!
Of course, the resentful spirits who stayed with the banshees were directly ignored by Roger.
The undead spirit of the banshee is a pain in the hearts of all elves, because the predecessors of the banshee were all elves.
After being tortured by the soul and polluted by the power of the undead, the elven souls that could not return to the tree of life normally were gradually twisted into banshees by the necromancers.
Although the Banshee is also a regular alchemy class of the Undead series, it is the same class that cannot be mass-produced as the Death Knight, because the "raw material" of the Banshee is the elves.
And the elven souls that have fallen into the hands of the undead forces have always been so many, and the elves who have suffered a lot now are not as easy to grasp as they used to be.
So since it happened, of course Roger had to do his best to liberate these poor banshees.
Having made up his mind, Roger commanded the qi elements to scatter out in groups of two to investigate.
Of course, in fact, Roger is just taking this opportunity to let the qi elements quickly seize the advantage.
Countess Marie, who had been preparing to launch an ambush, suddenly showed a cruel smile when she spotted the qi elements that were constantly probing around in the air. After ordering the undead troops to strengthen the hiding through the hero's certificate, Countess Mary also restrained the already meager undead aura, and quietly hid in the grass, quietly observing the qi elements scurrying around with only the naked eye.
In fact, Countess Mary was more worried that Count Tom would be unable to bear to jump out of the swamp than the undead troops, after all, the stench of decay made her unbearable.
Compared with Count Tom, Countess Mary, who has a lot of ambush experience, knows very well how difficult it is for the undead to detect the existence of the undead who have restrained the aura of the undead, not to mention that there is still a cover of mist here in the Misty Swamp, and if you don't get close, you will definitely not be able to find the undead who have done a lot of camouflage work.
Countess Mary didn't know that Roger had such an air element in his hands.
Under Roger's command, the air elementals continued to search back and forth in the location where the undead legion was lurking, but they never "found" any undead creatures.
The rock elementals strode forward as best they could, under the command of Tuna, followed by the flame elementals and ice elementals.
Due to the constant "reconnaissance" of the qi elementals back and forth, Countess Mary, who tried her best to restrain the aura of the undead, did not notice that the rapidly approaching elemental legion was not using the usual marching army.
It's about hitting the array!
Roger commanded the Storm Elementals to fly back and forth over the undead legion, but he always pretended to be blind to the undead below. The thunder elementals locked onto their targets one after another in the continuous flying back and forth, and quietly flew into the air.
Roger, who was sitting on the shoulder of a rock elemental, nervously mobilizing the qi elements, suddenly faintly heard a rather ethereal voice in his ear.
“…… Be careful...... Ambush...... ...... on both sides
Roger, who was frightened by this strange words and broke out in a cold sweat, suddenly noticed that this was obviously a woman's voice in Elfish language!
Where did the elves come from? Wait a minute! It can't be those banshees, right?
Roger, who twitched the corners of his mouth, subconsciously glanced at the current location of the elemental legions under his command in the system map.
The flame elementals and ice elementals have arrived at their positions, and the thunder elementals in the sky have also found their targets, but the rock elementals are still a little short of reaching the most suitable distance.
No waiting! Just do it!
With the reminder of the elf or banshee in the dark, Roger estimated that for the undead legion, the elemental legion under his command, especially the rock elementals, was probably about to reach the ambush point of the other party.
So Roger simply gave an order to all elemental classes through the Hero's Certificate: Attack the whole army!
The special wailing banshee mixed in with the group of wailing banshees, seeing that the Terran druid, who was obviously the commander of the Elemental Legion, still did not make any action under his own warning, and was about to come forward to warn regardless of his own safety, when he found that there was a sudden change in the field.
At the same time, the Fire Elementals and Ice Elementals began to unleash special attacks that had been slowly preparing from the beginning to both sides of the road!
However, the thunder elements who had already arrived at the predetermined position and had already found their targets were the first to throw the lightning in their hands!
Target: The Great Corpse Witch Force!
The sharp lightning instantly pierced through the fog and hit the unsuspecting corpse witches on the edge of the swamp pond on both sides of the road, and under the diffusion effect of the swamp pool's abundant water and passive ability electric shock, most of the three hundred corpse witches were lost in an instant! The Great Witch who was not defeated was also paralyzed by the electricity scurrying around! Lightning attacks are surprisingly effective against corpse witches!
The corpse witches who were suddenly attacked suddenly let out a howl of rage.
At the same time, however, the other undead who had been attacked also howled, and the voices of the corpse witches were inconspicuous.
And when the Thunder Elementals attacked, the Storm Elementals were not pretending, and quickly pounced on the skeleton griffons lying on the ground! Didn't try to storm the Bone Gryphons, just kept coming out of the fog and sneaking up on the Bone Griffons before returning to the mist! The entanglement of the storm elementals keeps the bone griffons from taking to the skies!
The Ice Elementals, who had been preparing for a long time, also quickly threw the ice bombs in their hands under the guidance of the Air Elementals!
Target: Half aimed at the Wailing Banshee troops! The other half is the Wraith Army!
The wailing banshees, who were also completely unresponsive, were directly frozen into crystal clear ice sculptures by the ice bombs!
In the seemingly beautiful ice sculptures, you can see the banshees with endless pain and resentment on their faces constantly struggling, their hands waving around, and their overlapping bodies struggling to separate.
However, the ice bombs that hit the ice sculptures one after another quickly turned the ice into two, three, and even five layers.
Although the seventh-order Wailing Banshee did not suffer any damage under the dual effects of its powerful strength and spirit ability, under the freezing effect of the enhanced magic effect of the Ice Elementals especially for the ghost-type troops, it was obviously impossible for the Wailing Banshees who were frozen by the fifth layer of ice to participate in the battle in a short period of time!
The wailing banshee, who had been paying attention to the battlefield and had left her companions' bodies in advance, had escaped the ice bullets, and immediately smiled bitterly when she saw the appearance of her compatriots around her. Obviously, Roger had been prepared for an ambush by the Undead Legion, and her reminder seemed completely superfluous.
However, the Wailing Banshee shook her head with some interest, and headed in a direction she had been eyeing for a long time.
As for the wraiths that guarded the Wailing Banshee, they were also frozen in ice, but they were not as powerful and resistant as the Wailing Banshee, and they had quietly turned into ice sculptures.
I can't even struggle.
At the same time as the ice elementals threw the ice bombs in their hands, the flame elements also threw the incendiary bombs in their hands in a slightly deviated direction!
Target: Wraith Troops!
The resentful spirits who were further ahead of the wailing banshees were also caught off guard by the Molotov cocktail! And these incendiary bombs are not directly aimed at the resentful spirits. Some of the incendiary bombs hit the wraiths directly, while others were dodged by the wraiths with their disembodied abilities, and some of the incendiary bombs fell to the ground.
However, whether or not the Wraiths were hit, all the incendiary bombs that fell exploded!
The Flame Elementals who are not guided by the Air Elemental directly choose Fire Coverage!
The burst of flames quickly clinged to the spirits of the overlapping spirits! Similar to the methods used by the Ice Elementals, the Flame Elemental also increases the collateral effect of the attack by reducing the direct damage, and the Ignite effect attached to the incendiary bomb quickly ignites all the Spirits in the area.
Whether or not the wraiths separated their overlapping bodies after the attack, they were all on fire!
The ignited spirits suddenly howled miserably, but there were still many unignited spirits who separated their bodies in time and quickly pounced on the elemental legions!
Half of the last Rock Elemental troops were left in place to protect Roger and the Druid Elders. The other half of the troops, some of them met the wraiths that slipped through the net, and some of them buried their heads and rushed directly to the vampire counts.
"How did it suddenly become like this?"
Realizing that the ambush failed, Countess Mary, who was still being planned by the enemy, stood up from the grass in a trance, and was about to call Count Tom to raid the enemy army together, only to find that Count Tom had already left the swamp and rushed up at the first time, and was now being pressed and beaten by a woman in heavy armor!
Gritting her teeth, Countess Mary gave the same order to all the vampire counts; "Raid the enemy hero!"
Decapitation tactics!
The vampire counts howled and dissipated into a black mist, quickly appearing in the black mist in front of Roger.
Druid Elder Ina was about to step forward to defend Roger with her life, just as Sacco had done, when she saw Roger spread out a scroll that had been in his hand.
It was a white magic scroll with a gold rim, and at this time, due to Roger's magic power constantly pouring into it, it was emitting a faint white halo.
It was a halo of light!
"I've been waiting for you!" Roger laughed and opened the scroll!
Intense holy light suddenly erupted around Roger!
Light Strategy Magic: Undead Slayer!
A strategic magic scroll made by the cardinal legends of the Dawn Church! And it's also a scroll made by a strong man with grandmaster-level light strategic magic skills!
This is only the third-tier strategic magic in the fifth-level light system, and strategic magic has played a huge role at this moment!
The vampire counts closest to Roger suddenly turned into ashes in the holy light, and the vampire counts in the distance also wailed and gradually disappeared into the holy light.
The vampire counts, who didn't launch a teleportation attack at the first time, immediately stopped in place, and then they were approached by the rock elementals!
Countess Mary suddenly felt a darkness in front of her!
"Damn the Church of Dawn! Damn the Light! ”
As soon as this undead slayer's strategic magic scroll came out, Countess Mary knew that they must have been planted this time!
Unlike the top-tier undead classes like the Bone Dragon and the Death Knight, who have a certain degree of tolerance for the Holy Light, the vampire counts who have been promoted from the high-level classes still retain the weakness of the light system!
This weakness is especially fatal in the face of the undead strategic magic undead killer developed specifically for the undead!
Now it is not a question of whether or not you can annihilate the enemy, but to save this life as much as possible in the enemy's powerful encirclement and suppression!
Because this light weakness also exists for Countess Mary and Count Tom, who have not yet reached the legendary level! Hit by this powerful light strategic magic, Countess Mary and Count Tom definitely have the possibility of falling on the spot!
Seeing that Roger had eliminated the vampire Count's troops that had appeared near him, and had the rock elementals take over the remaining vampire counts, his eyes were in the direction of Count Tom, and Countess Mary was suddenly shocked.
"Tom! Run! ”
With a terrible scream, Countess Mary hurriedly spread her bats wings and flew towards Count Tom, who was still struggling to support Tuna.
However, Countess Mary's figure in mid-air slammed into a slam, and a terrible howl suddenly sounded in her ears!
"Banshee howl! How can it be! Who the hell is it! Countess Mary's eyes widened, but her body was actually unable to move due to the banshee's howl.
Banshee's Howl, which is a special ability possessed by the undead class that belongs to the Banshee, and the Wailing Banshees are the best among them, and its effect can make all targets within the range of sound waves suffer a mental impact, so as to fall into a dizziness, coma and other bad states.
Countess Mary was so close to the source of the sound that she had suffered the banshee's howl almost completely unguarded, and although she did not fall into a coma or dizziness, she had completely lost control of her body.
Count Tom, who was fighting with Tuna not far away, froze even more, only to be knocked to the ground with a punch from Tuna who was an elemental creature and ignored the banshee's howl.
"Bloody Countess! When you bathed in the blood of my sisters, did you think that you would be where you are today! The wailing banshee, who had left the group, slowly appeared behind Countess Mary, and while her hands and feet quickly wrapped around Count Mary, the wailing banshee laughed coldly in Countess Mary's ear.
"How is this possible! How could you possibly escape the control of the Hero's Proof! "Countess Mary didn't recognize the banshees behind her, after all, there were many banshees under her command, and she didn't have the leisure to write down the looks of these banshees one by one. Countess Mary, however, wondered why the Banshees had been able to escape control.
If there really were high-level undead who could escape control, it would be an absolutely catastrophic blow to the undead realm.
Many of the powerful undead who are driven by the lich and necromancer as undead are resentful, especially the Death Knights.
"If I'm still a seventh-order strength, of course it's impossible. However, I have already broken through the bottleneck and become an eighth order! The wailing banshee laughed in Countess Mary's ear, and as she watched the scroll in Roger's hand in the distance begin to emit a strong light again, she grabbed the countess who was gradually recovering from the effects of the banshee's howl.
"Let's die together! Countess! ”
"Nope! My Tom! ”
The light descended on the two vampire counts and the wailing banshees, as well as the nearby corpse witches, all of whom let out loud screams in unison.
However, when the light slowly dissipated, the two counts and the wailing banshee were still alive, but they all fell to the ground.
The Wailing Banshee barely supported the figure that had obviously become very thin, and finally lost consciousness completely after seeing Tuna smash the two blackened vampire counts one by one with the giant shield in her hand very easily.
Sisters...... I ...... for you Revenge......
