Chapter 50: Beamon Shaman, Decapitating a Blow, Resisting Demons
In the minds of most of Erathia's people, Krullod is almost synonymous with barbarism and violence. In this kingdom of Bimon, neither orcs, nor barbarians, nor half-orcs have anything to do with such noble words as civilization, morality, and wisdom. There are even ignorant scholars who openly declare Bimon to be an upright beast and to despise him as an uncivilized minch. However, it is extremely embarrassing and undeniable that the people who deeply despise the kingdom of Beamon are at the same time deeply afraid of each other. Whether it is the wolf cavalry that comes and goes like the wind, or the raging and greedy ogre, and the legendary golden monster, they are all terrifying beings that can make people shudder. Especially for the southern counties of Erathia, the Beamon bandits roaming the wilderness are a terrible nightmare that they can't get rid of.
However, as a veteran veteran of the "discharged" army, a former knight of asylum, Black Knife undoubtedly knows and understands the United Kingdom of Krulord much more deeply than those so-called "experts on international issues".
If we compare it from the point of view of species traits and innate genes, there is no doubt that Beamon's physical condition is far more suitable for brutal combat than humans.
Wild temperament, strong body, tough skin, and even fangs and sharp teeth that have not yet "evolved", all of these qiē are powerful assets for the Bimon warriors to win the battle and stand out from the crowd. In one-on-one conditions, it was almost impossible for an ordinary Terran warrior to defeat Beamon. This is why humanity is usually defeated in small-scale conflicts. However, once the scale of the battle escalates to a campaign or even a full-scale war, the balance of victory and defeat will tilt back in favor of the Terrans. With highly disciplined army restraint and strong cooperative combat capabilities, the Human Legion not only made up for the weakness of its own soldiers, but even used the advantages of group combat to launch a deadly attack on the poorly organized and coordinated Beamon army. Because after all, war is the killing of order. The Beamon army, which lacks a complete military structure and strong command, will not be able to defeat the human legions. And this is also the fundamental reason why the Terrans were able to rise and replace Beamon to dominate the continent.
Therefore, in the traditional concept of Erathia's mid-level or high-level warriors, they have always lacked a good impression of the "Beamon Military Junkers" who control the Krulord war plane, and even think that the other party's military literacy can only be regarded as a third-rate level. But on the other hand, the officers of the Human Legion have full respect for the powerful individual Beamon warriors and the Beamon shamans. Because it was they who, when the Great Empire of Beamon collapsed, used endless blood and lives to grab a glimmer of life for the retreating clansmen.
However, when they meet on the battlefield, the human knights will still do their best to kill each other. Especially for the Beamon Shaman, it is the primary target for sniping. Because without the Beamon Shaman's Krulod army formation is very different. In particular, those shamans who are able to chant powerful war songs are even comparable to those of the Beamon Behemoth Knights.
Therefore, when he heard the sound of the dreadnought-level Beamon war song "Breath of the God of War", the black knife immediately rushed forward with all his strength, trying to prevent the female werewolf from completing the chanting. However, the stubborn resistance from the werewolf warrior always limited the black knife's footsteps, making it impossible for him to reach the whip.
And White, although he didn't know what Beamon's war song was, could unmistakably perceive the rolling power of the high-pitched singing. However, in the face of the continuous suppression of the orc grenadiers, the crossbowmen were also unable to pose an effective threat to the werewolves.
Finally, as the last set of battle song notes rang out, the silver scepter in the werewolf's hand began to glow brightly. At the top of the scepter, the golden wolf head slowly opened its fangs, and a ball of blood-colored light swirled rapidly in the wolf's mouth with a boiling battle aura, from small to large. …,
And at this moment, suddenly, a silver arrow with a glow of magic brilliance flew out from the corridor.
In an instant, the magic arrow flew over the mound of death, swept past the fierce warbands, and crossed the orc array, aiming for the heart of the Beamon Shaman.
This is exactly the "decapitating blow" that Moriarty has endured for a long time.
Seeing that the silver arrow was about to hit the werewolf's full chest, suddenly, a multicolored light lit up from the red cloak of the Beamon shaman. In the light, a transparent crystal shield silently flashed in front of the cloak's owner, completely blocking the werewolf from the attacking silver arrows.
There was no burst of magical energy, no glare of light, not even a sound, and when the magic arrow hit the crystal shield, it disappeared like a pebble thrown into a pool, only to stir up a circle of water ripples on the surface of the shield.
"Anti-magic props!" When he saw that the magic arrow was completely blocked by the crystal shield, Moriarty in the corridor couldn't help but let out a low cry.
The so-called anti-magic item is one of the few methods that can resist magical attacks.
Because essentially, as long as you are not a dragon or a member of a limited number of other special races, then no matter how strong your body is, no matter how tall you are, whether your life form is a living being, an undead, or an elemental, it will not help you resist the power of magic.
And only magic can resist magic.
Normally, mages can cast spells through guò to increase their own or allies' magic resistance. For example, the first-level spell "Fire Magic Defense" (Fire Resistance) can effectively give the recipient the ability to resist fire magic attacks. Moreover, the higher the level of the mage, the greater the magic resistance it can bring. Of course, magic resistance doesn't completely negate a spell's attack, but only tries to minimize its damage. If you want to completely escape from the power of magic, you need another magical effect - anti-magic.
The so-called anti-magic refers to the use of an anti-magic force field to completely neutralize all spells that enter the force field.
Obviously, the resistance is much more thorough than the resistance to the magic, but it is also much more difficult. And to achieve demon resistance, either find a grand arcanist who can cast the legendary fifth-level spell "Demon Resistance Stand", or rely on superb alchemy and expensive, rare magic materials to make zuò anti-magic items.
Obviously, the werewolf's red cloak is such a precious anti-magic prop.
However, as the ripples of the water ripples slowly disappeared in the air, the anti-magic cloak that had protected against the magic arrows also slowly shattered, turning into tiny pieces before finally dissipating.
At the same time, in the sound of an ancient and distant war drum transformed from the end of the war song, the "breath of the god of war" finally descended on this small but fierce battlefield.
The red light began to fill the air, like rolling waves. However, the wolf's head scepter in Shaman Beamon's hand was like a lighthouse, guiding the tide of holy light to continue to rotate and gather towards itself.
At the top of the scepter, the blood-colored ball of light was already full and abnormal, as if it was filled with hot blood.
The next moment, the ball of light burst open, and a huge circular curtain of blood encompassed all the werewolf warriors and orc grenadiers. As if summoned by the blood curtain, the tide of holy light around it immediately boiled completely like a blazing fire. Immediately, a strong aura mixed with killing, rage, and bloodlust violently evaporated from the tumbling red holy light.
As if they had tasted the most delicious taste in the world, werewolves, barbarians, and orcs were all breathing in great excitement, and their eyes were full of pious light. …,
At a speed visible to the naked eye, the bodies of those Beamon warriors who had absorbed the "breath of the god of war" immediately swelled one after another, and their thick hair stood upright like sharp steel needles, leaving only the frenzy of battle in their blood-soaked eyes, and no other emotions were seen, which made people feel intimidating.
"Pseudo-madness!" Looking at the qiē in front of him, the black knife's heart immediately sank.
"Hamlin!" The werewolf, who had gained the power of Warsong, howled and pounced on the Black Knife.
Although there were only a dozen werewolf warriors left at this time, the momentum of their sudden attack was like a thousand troops.
"Hah!"
The black saddle blade slashed at a swooping werewolf again.
"Click!"
The scimitar in the werewolf's hand was immediately cut off, but when the sharp blade of the saber penetrated deep into the werewolf's chest, it was not able to directly cut the enemy in two as before, but was clamped by the werewolf, trapped in a cage made of muscles and broken bones, unable to extricate itself.
This is the powerful power of the "breath of the god of war". It allows a werewolf warrior who is less than level 4 to enter a state similar to "madness" in a short period of time, making it have a relatively large increase in strength, speed, endurance, and even vitality, and then greatly enhance its temporary combat power.
Among the magic, there is also a first-level fire magic called "Bloodthirsty", which can increase the combat effectiveness of the recipient. But in terms of effect, it is far from being comparable to the dreadnought-level Beamon War Song "Breath of the God of War".
You must know that Beamon, who can independently control the "carnival" skill, can at least be compared to a human mid-level knight or mid-level warrior who has mastered the aura of aura. And being able to help ordinary Beamon warriors enter a state of madness, even if it is only a kind of "pseudo-madness" that is far inferior to the real madness, is enough to be called a powerful skill that is close to the sky. And this shows the irreplaceable importance of the Beamon Shaman to the United Kingdom of Krulod.
Fortunately, there are only a few shamans who can summon dreadnought-level war songs like "Breath of the God of War", and at least the scepter level is required. Otherwise, in the face of the entire Beamon army that has entered a state of madness, no matter how strong the human legion is, it will definitely not be the opponent of the other party.
Of course, such a temporary combat power blessing like a doping will definitely cause a considerable physical and mental burden to the recipient, and may even cause some irreversible sequelae. But who would think about this when it comes to life and death? What's more, in the eyes of the Bimon warriors, these powers from war songs are the supreme gift of the god of war, representing glory and glory, how can they resist or even refuse?
