Chapter 164: Urban Guerrilla Warfare
The baptism of ice and fire had no small impact on the aristocratic council. The pain of peeling off large swaths of skin is by no means something that ordinary soldiers can endure. Some of them trembled instinctively, some couldn't help but twitch; Some were curled up in a ball and wailed, and some even fainted from the pain.
However, although the opponent's counterattack could not form a combination of high and low temperatures, it was even sharper in terms of a single spell - the raging thunder crackled in the ears, and the flickering electric light shuttled freely through the crowd. The anvil that holds the 'Ancient Virtue War Hammer' in his hand on the ground tries to channel the thunder and electric charges on his body into the ground through this lightning rod grounding method.
Lalu, who jumped up and down among the ruins, kept twisting his soft and boneless body (cat people have soft bones), dodging the dazzling lightning. This dense video game is not so easy to get rid of, and every time he passes by with a thunderbolt, a whole piece of charred black hair appears on Lalu's body - the Western-style monk's robe, which has become tattered at this time.
Fortunately, the catboy's raid action was also not busy, so he managed to escape from the range of the flashing magic ball after only a few tricks. Unfortunately, Claymatis, Claudia, and Rielly ate almost all of the damage. Now the hair of the first two of them has all been straightened upwards and styled.
On the contrary, it was Rielly who had been transformed, relying on the smooth scales, and she couldn't see much change. However, the pair of red eyes that she looked at the other party's spellcaster were probably very much in line with her own mood right now - no matter which mage it was. When they see their enemies using their own unsearchable spells, most of them will have the same emotions as Rielly.
"Whew!" Clematis, who protruded a smoke ring from his mouth, immediately clenched the emblem and channeled positive energy. A surging tide of energy. Immediately dispelled the darkness in the entire aisle. In this night, most of the city of Karada can notice the brilliance that flashes here.
Under the shroud of this energy, the injuries on the players' bodies recovered at a speed that was visible to the naked eye. The blackened dead skin peels off, and the new skin is more delicate than the surrounding peers, and at first glance it looks like a camouflage that has failed to make up. Anvil's beard had also grown a little shorter by this time, and he should be worried about how to describe his encounter with his compatriots in the future - perhaps it would be a good idea to go to the alchemy shop and buy a bottle of hair growth potion.
In terms of spellcasting, it can be said that there is no winner or loser. The frontal battlefield in close combat also takes the form of a stalemate. The width of the lanes is not large, and the number of enemies Barrett can reach at any one time is not large. In this way, the cleaning work he was able to carry out was not intended to be greatly reduced in terms of efficiency - the mass damage effect that 'Metal Storm' could cause. It is only within the range of the threat of weapons around you. In such an environment, it should be snickering to have three people hit every time you launch.
Also because of the small area of contact, the battle line of the aristocratic parliamentary army appeared quite strong. The close encounters also made Barrett know through the opponent's shirt and badge that this was a soldier of the Dragonclaw Corps. Although it is not known which team they belong to, the quality of these soldiers is beyond doubt.
Perhaps there is a big gap between their individual strength and Barrett. It can rely on the instinctive cooperation formed by long hours of training. They took advantage of the favorable terrain at hand. Successfully intercepted Barrett's charge. Although the baptism of spells brought them a batch of injuries, these comrades-in-arms who had become a burden were sent to the rear by their companions as soon as possible, and their gaps would naturally be filled immediately.
Although the sword light swung out by Broken Peak was sharp, it could not tear through the human wall of mutual support for a moment. And the spear that came out of the man's wall, mixed with the wielding broadsword, struck Barrett. Although in his eyes, these attacks did not pose much of a threat to him for a while. But it also takes effort to parry and dodge. And Barrett now has no three heads and six arms, and he can only wield one weapon, and the strength he spends on offense is naturally much less.
Fortunately, at this time, the cat boy was the first to feel Barrett's side. Deftly, he sensibly looked for an opportunity in Barrett's attack and the counterattack of the Dragonclaw soldiers. Accompanied by Barrett's imposing knife technique, Laru followed the route of the 'broken peak' and followed the knife.
At that moment, the Dragonclaw Corps drilled out a few spears. Immediately blocked the cat's path. Seeing that the situation was not good, Barrett twisted his waist, and with a backhand swing of the 'Broken Peak' that he cut out, he immediately cut off half of his gun. The remaining voids were no longer small, and Lalu successfully passed through them with a flexibility that was not inferior to the bone shrinking skill.
Breaking through the blockade, he rolled to his feet, and then slammed the 'scorpion scythe' into the inner thighs of his enemies - these days of fighting have taught the cat that the armor on this part is often weak, whether for weight or for agility.
The severed femoral artery spurted out fan-shaped blood stains, and the catboy who couldn't dodge was even drenched after he succeeded. With this fishy smell, Lalu had no intention of taking advantage of the victory, and he immediately shrank into a ball and rolled outward. And the soldiers of the 'Dragon Claw' Legion, who saw that their companions' lives were on the verge of death, immediately vented their anger to Lalu who was retreating.
"Click! Click! The sound was the collision of the blades that hadn't hit Lalu with the ground, but just as the Dragonclaw soldiers were about to see the dawn of victory. An even more dazzling sword light immediately knocked them from the peak to the bottom. The torn air, the 'Broken Peak' that disturbed the autumn wind, with a sweeping momentum, forcibly interrupted the attacks of all the soldiers of the 'Dragon Claw' Corps.
After activating 'Blood', Barrett has a huge power that these ordinary soldiers can't resist. Laru's dash succeeded in attracting the attention of the opponent and causing a hole in their defense. Barrett, who saw this opportunity, naturally did not miss it - under full fire, the first three platoons of the entire front fell.
The closest to Barrett were almost cut in half. The struggling upper body and the instinctive shaking of the lower body will make any onlooker shudder. Even the survivor who survived the side was also incapacitated by the profusely bleeding torso. Immediately after the soldiers of the second row. Although there are indispensable missing arms and legs, there are not many who are really in danger.
When they got to the third row, most of them were unlucky people who were knocked down in the previous panic. While they don't have many of them to be able to fight again as soon as they get back up, Barrett obviously won't give them that kind of almost. With a big stride, he directly used these fallen soldiers of the 'Dragon Claw' Corps as stepping stones, and launched an offensive against the enemy behind him.
The short-legged anvil that arrived later was with Laru, hiding behind Barrett's peacock-like blade, harvesting the lives that were still struggling one by one. By the time Clematis, who was one step later, arrived, the two quick-handed stolen runners had already harvested most of the heads. Watch the experience skyrocketing on the character panel. The lowest-ranking anvil in the team was really happy at this time.
But the regular army is a regular army after all, although the fronts are eroded in vain. But the members behind him still regrouped in a short period of time, and Barrett, who finally took a few steps forward. The offensive is again siblings. On the other side, Rielly was fighting against the enemy spellcaster.
The three-color rays that come and go make it feel like you're watching a movie called "Star Wars". It's just that neither Rielly nor the enemy spellcaster has the ability to intercept rays like Barrett. How flexible they are jumping up and down at this point. Not even under the previous Lalu.
It is recorded that there were times when the warring sides fought back and forth. Claudia, who seemed to be pinching something, suddenly took out a silver whistle and puffed out her cheeks. Hearing this, Barrett slashed with a stumbling stride, causing the soldiers of the 'Dragon Claw' Corps in front of him to take a half-step back from the edge for a while.
Then Barrett turned in a volley, and then activated the effect on the accelerator boot. In the blink of an eye, he opened a constant distance from the soldiers of the 'Dragon Claw' Corps. And Lalu and Anvil, who had been prepared before, also began to retreat rapidly with the help of Clematis.
This sudden change immediately made the soldiers of the 'Dragon Claw' Legion dumbfounded. Even the junior officers among them really couldn't figure it out. Why would these enemies in front of them suddenly choose to retreat when they have the upper hand? By the time they came to their senses and were ready to catch up. In the midst of the retreat, Claudia untied a bag and scattered an iron thistle on the ground.
Faced with this headache-inducing obstacle in front of them, the soldiers of the 'Dragon Claw' Corps began to scratch blind. Because they don't have the equipment to ignore thistle punctures, even ordinary metal riding boots are not completely immune to this effect under the weight of the human body. Unless it's a certain quality of thick-soled combat boots, it can make ordinary people walk on the ground on this road. It's a pity that every soldier of the Dragon's Claw Corps can have that kind of equipment.
So as they prepared to clear the road and take a look at their own victims, they found that most of the corpses were missing an ear. The soldiers of the 'Dragon Claw' Corps, who returned to China in the future, immediately understood what the main purpose of those attackers was just now. At this moment, a roar suddenly came from behind them: "What kind of enemy did you encounter, forcing your team to send out distress signals one after another......"
Ignoring the belated increaser, the 'Bloodstained Gray Flower' and his party after successfully breaking away from the battle rushed all the way. Then, after running into a few twisting alleys, he found an abandoned empty house. It was said to be a house, but the thing in front of me was the ruins of the ruins with only four walls left. However, with the cover of the ruins, the eyes of ordinary people can be very aware of the players in it.
"I didn't expect Barrett to be so accurate! As I ran behind, I heard the roar of reinforcements. Claudia, who had just been in charge of blowing the whistle, said with palpitations at this time. If she had been negligent or had not believed Barrett's previous plan, the group would have been in the middle of a bitter battle.
"Actually, I didn't expect the other party's reinforcements to come so quickly. I've set aside a lot of window time in the plan I've set before. Speaking of this, Barrett frowned before he didn't even have time to catch his breath, "It seems that the previous estimate is still not accurate enough!" If you launch a surprise attack again, the time to retreat will have to be further advanced. ”
Hearing this, it is clear that the players are not planning to go head-to-head with the armies of the Council of Nobles tonight. Relying on the strength of their relatively strong squads, they found an opportunity to raid the front-line troops of the noble council. Therefore, it is often possible to cause a lot of casualties to the other party at the beginning. What's more, these players are not in love with battle, and are always able to retreat decisively when they take advantage of it, and flee before enemy reinforcements arrive.
Using this mode of action of urban guerrilla warfare, the players who came down to 'blood stained gray flowers' in one night experienced a total of 8 major battles. During this period, although I also encountered a stubble that missed my eyes, in the end, I came over without danger. However, the successive battles also consumed a lot of spells, supplies, and stamina from the players. Now they have found this place to prepare for a short rest to relieve the discomfort and stress caused by continuous fighting.
"Anvil, how much loot do you have on your back now?" Rielly, who had recently become a money fan, immediately asked the dwarves about it when she was free. Because this operation needs to come and go like the wind, the so-called loot is just the mission items that need to be turned in.
It's just the dog tags of the soldiers of the noble council, but their ears are blood-drenched obscurity. Claim refused to put them in his storage. Therefore, these things can only be held in asbestos cloth, and handed over to the anvil (dwarf talent) that does not affect the movement of the weight.
After removing the bag hidden under the shield, the anvil weighed it slightly. Obviously, he didn't want to count the ears of those disgusting people at this time: "There are a lot of them, there should be almost 50-60 people!" It seems that our actions this night have dealt a little blow to the noble council. (To be continued.) )
