Chapter 238: Blood Lord Hannibal (I)
The sudden appearance of a huge lightning bolt caused everyone to fall into a stupor, of course, perhaps because the terrifying roar that occurred in an instant made most people instantly deaf. For Chen Kai, he yelled with his mouth open for a long time, but found that he couldn't hear what he said. As for those who were close to the lightning landing point, it was even more tragic, and the electricity that burst out when the huge lightning fell directly from the sky instantly vaporized several black-armored cavalry.
It can be said that the impact of this sudden terrifying lightning on the Drow is far less than the impact on Chen Kai's black-armored cavalry, because most of the black-armored cavalry are wearing metal armor, while the Drow are wearing leather armor. The conductive effect of metal cannot be completely eliminated even if some special substances are added, and the most important thing is that the two sides are closer to the lightning landing point, and the obvious black armored cavalry is closer. Because they were protecting the red spar, and the center of the lightning was the red spar that wrapped Hannibal's body.
In addition to the few black-armored cavalry who were vaporized in an instant, there were at least a hundred black-armored cavalry around the lightning landing point that were penetrated by the violent lightning current. More than 20 of them were directly turned into charred corpses after being pierced by lightning because of the close distance, and only those who were farther away survived, but their bodies could not move and could only lie on the ground and convulse. This is still the part that was stunned, and there were many black-armored cavalrymen who were stunned by the lightning shock wave and the huge sound wave. It can be said that when such a lightning bolt fell, at least half of the more than a thousand black-armored cavalry around Su Xinghe lost their combat effectiveness, and the rest were dizzy and their heads buzzed.
Thankfully, the lightning blast wasn't just for the black-armored cavalry, the Minotaurs and Drow were also affected by the lightning, and even worse. Because Su Xinghe was protecting Hannibal, who was wrapped in red hedrons, they had their backs to lightning, while the Drow and the Minotaurs were facing lightning. When huge lightning falls, it's not just sound and electricity. And the light of terror. When a huge bolt of lightning suddenly fell. A terrifying light that tore through the night. That can turn the night into the light of day in an instant. For underground creatures like Drow and Minotaurs, the damage is more terrifying than any spell.
At least nearly eight hundred of the Drow's eyes were hurt at that moment, and at the same time, nearly two hundred Minotaurs closed their eyes and couldn't open them for a long time. To put it bluntly, they were blinded. Of course, this kind of blindness is only temporary, and they can recover after giving them a little time. However, compared to the inhabitants on the ground, the recovery time will be very short after being blinded. However, after the underground creatures were blinded, it would take at least several times longer than the terrestrial humans to recover. Therefore, these drows were in a state of being unable to fight for a short period of time like the black-armored cavalry, even the six-legged war lizards under their crotch.
Of course, if there was only one flash call, maybe these drows would not be so blinded by the flash, but when the first lightning bolt fell, nearly eight lightning bolts were immediately slashed from the sky. Nine huge bolts of lightning fell to the ground. Hu Lansi, who was following behind Chen Kai's buttocks, opened his mouth wide and looked at the huge lightning that kept falling in the distance, and suddenly the word catastrophe flashed in his mind, and then he followed in the footsteps of the drows, and was blinded by the bright light of the lightning.
It took nearly ten seconds for Hulans's eyes to regain the ability to see, and then a loud shout of killing rang out in his ears again. The sudden lightning did not stop Chen Kai's determination to besiege and kill the Zhuoers, and even because of these lightning, Chen Kai found that the number of casualties had dropped a lot in an instant. Because the Drow were still in a state of confusion blinded by lightning, and most of the soldiers led by Chen Kai had nothing at all, except for some of the landing points near the lightning that were affected by the roaring thunder.
Although Chen Kai himself was temporarily deaf because of his proximity to lightning, it did not prevent him from yelling at his subordinates. When Chen Kai's attack full of anger was transmitted to the ears of the soldiers who could still hear it clearly, the troops who had fallen into a stupora because of the sudden lightning subconsciously reacted. All the soldiers instantly swung their weapons again and pounced on the nearest enemy. If the black-armored cavalry, which had used the terrain and armor on their bodies to defend against the enemy's attack, suffered very few casualties in battle. Then when Chen Kai's entire army was put into battle, the number of casualties instantly jumped from hundreds to thousands. Those short monsters were the first targets to be killed by Chen Kai's soldiers. For these small but very fierce, the infantry of Burkner Town had a natural advantage and a sense of superiority.
"Die! Mud dwarf from hell! These are the words that many Burkner soldiers shouted most often when they killed monsters, and if it was said that in the days when Count Hugodi was still leading the demonized cavalry, these monsters were the most hated beings in Hugodi's domain. Now when most of the demonized cavalry has turned into bones in the magma, the treatment of the demons has changed from a nasty demon to a mud dwarf who is now trash. In the eyes of these soldiers, the monsters were far easier to bully than the drows, so the nearly 2,000 monsters directly became the target of most of the soldiers. In less than a minute, the number of monsters had plummeted from more than two thousand to less than a thousand. However, the drow riding on the six-legged battle lizard was too difficult to deal with, it would take four or five soldiers to kill one, and Chen Kai would lose one or two soldiers. This kind of business must not be described as cost-effective, you must know that Chen Kai led the aboriginal troops this time, and there is no way to replenish it if one dies.
So seeing that the casualty statistics in the system began to rise gradually, Chen Kai's heart instantly began to throb and throb. Thankfully, when the caster joined the fight, the casualty count dropped considerably. This time, Chen Kai pulled all the high-level player spellcasters in Burkner Town that could be hired by him. He formed a huge force of nearly 500 spellcasters, and the price he had to pay was to open the spell society in Burkner Town to them and a commission of less than a hundred gold.
Originally, the Spell Guild in Burkner Town was just an ordinary Spell Guild that was not paid attention to by players. However, when the five archmages arrived, the number of magic books in the Spell Guild instantly increased several times. Although in order to borrow these magic books, players need to pay a lot of money, such as the price of nearly three thousand gold coins for a fourth-order spell. But this is still much lower than other places, and in other big cities, you can't learn such a spell without four or five thousand gold coins. It's just that when these archmages arrived, they also took over the Spell Guild, which was originally occupied by players. Even if Chen Kai, the lord, wanted to enter the Spell Association, he had to get their consent.
However, because Xu Fei is the founder of the Spell Society in Burkner. Therefore, he also has some privileges, such as taking some mages in and out of the spell association freely, and so on. So Chen Kai is still very cost-effective than trading. The only thing he had to pay was 50,000 gold coins. For Chen Kai, who is making money every day, this gold coin is nothing at all.
When hundreds of casters cast spells in clusters, Drow's casualties instantly multiplied several times. However, what made Chen Kai's face ugly was that the attack distance of these spellcasters was too short, and many players only cast a few dozen meters away. After more than 100 meters, the power of the spell is reduced to a very embarrassing point. The biggest problem with the inability of player mages to turn into real battle mages is in this place, most of the player mages have too short cast ranges, and the attack range of the war mage group must be at least five hundred meters or more. However, such a distance is simply impossible for players to cross, but those who choose to join the army and become army mages are a different story. At the beginning, Chen Kai and the others met the army player spellcasters when they were traveling. The spell attack distance is extremely long, and there is also a special spell and spell casting magic circle to enhance the power of the spell and extend the distance.
However, this mercenary Chen Kai generally did not have any mage troops, although Xu Fei also organized a spellcaster army of nearly fifty people, and even unified the robes and paid them to master some high-range spell casting skills. He even spent money to buy a long-range amplification spell magic array from the hands of five archmages, but the power generated by the fifty-person spell army was not great, and the effect of the long-range amplification spell magic array was only unsatisfactory. After all, this kind of magic array belongs to the army's control technique, and the magic array sold to their archmage is a modified version of the abridged version.
Fortunately, Xu Fei got a lot of things from the player's mage, and now the two sides are still in contact, with the help of some realistic means, he still tries to restore this magic array to a situation where it has not been modified and deleted much. In this way, the power and distance of the spell were guaranteed, and these fifty spellcasters became the backbone of Chen Kai's mercenary mage army. Although the attack distance cannot reach the distance of at least five or six hundred meters of the regular army mage regiment. But it has also reached nearly 300 meters. The giant arcane missile is as terrifyingly powerful as the arcane cannonball that Xu Fei uses his wand to make, but it flies much farther away. And there are seven or eight arcane missiles released at one time.
Under Xu Fei's control, these missiles bombarded one Drow after another with extraordinary precision, and with powerful penetrating power, the arcane missiles instantly pierced the heads or chests of one Drow after another. However, such a spell Xu Fei can only be used three times in a row, although after three times Xu Fei's magic power still has a full thousand points of surplus, but the other players have already sucked out their magic power and even have to be supported by someone to take a breath. Of course, the power of these three rounds of spells was absolutely terrifying, and at least more than twenty drows were killed along with their mounts, and Xu Fei even achieved a triple kill. In addition to killing a Blackhorned Minotaur, an arcane missile killed the Drow cavalry behind him.
However, the player's magic power is a shortcoming that limits the mage's combat power after all, and even using a long-range magic array to increase the power of the spell cannot avoid the hard wound that the player's magic power is too little. Now, even if the player's highest level has exceeded level 67, the caster with the highest magic power is still Xu Fei, of course, it is cultivated with the water of the Holy Lake. As for why not call Chen Yi, who has more magic power, the caster with the highest magic power, because Chen Yi is a divine official, and in the eyes of many orthodox mages, a divine official is not even a mage.
Fortunately, after the players' mana was consumed, there was still an archmage in the sky who was still wielding. Although in Chen Kai's eyes, the John Jose Road Archmage was suspected of paddling, it was an indisputable fact that the spells in the opponent's hand had been released hundreds of times in a row without stopping. Of course, although the archmage in the sky kept spelling, but his attention was more on the area that was struck by lightning, as a powerhouse of the Holy Domain, he knew very well that the only possibility of this situation was that someone was advancing, and it was also a promotion that touched the edge of the legend.
The most important thing is that Archmage John Joselu did not feel the death of the promoted person, on the contrary, he felt that there was an incomparably majestic vitality condensing there. If he feels good, then a new lord will be born there. Of course, the lord mentioned here is not the lord of a territory like Chen Kai. Rather, it is a Saint-Order Lord with a special title. When they advance to the Legends. They're the Great Lords. For example, Count Adolik, he has the title of lord. However, not all holy orders have the title of great lord or lord, and generally speaking, only the more special depository zài will obtain such a special title. Like the Count of Adollig, his title is Thunder, because the current Count has the power of a certain amount of lightning. This kind of power is more powerful and special than the power held by ordinary legends or holy ranks, so coupled with his own strength, he has won the title of Thunder Lord.
As for why Count Adolig's strength has reached the level of legend but only has the title of lord, it is actually because the earl's lightning power is not particularly strong, and there is no way to compare with his own legendary power. To put it bluntly, the so-called lord title is a person who has mastered the power of a certain domain rule. Only such a depository zài can have the title of special lord.
Archmage John Jose Road didn't know what kind of rule power the one below had, but he knew that it was definitely not the power that a single Holy Rank should obtain to advance to the Title Holy Rank. The surging red light gave people a very strange feeling, but the archmage only felt weird but not any evil. Therefore, he felt that the vitality of the existence below was very strong, but it would not be an evil existence. If he felt that the power transmitted below was a death force full of evil, then he would definitely cooperate with the lightning just now to give a large spell to the one below.
As the dust shrouded in the lightning spot slowly landed, a figure wrapped in red slowly emerged from the mist. This man was very tall, at least from a human point of view. According to Su Xinghe's estimation the moment he saw the other party, the figure that appeared in front of him was at least two meters tall. All that was left of his body was armor around his waist, and the rest of his body was just exposed muscles and waist-length red hair.
When Su Xinghe saw the other party's face, he immediately understood who this person was. Although the image of Hannibal has changed a lot at this moment. Especially the weird red tattoo on his body that didn't exist at all before. Even his hair used to be blonde instead of red, and it wasn't as long as it is now. The most important thing is that the eyes of Hannibal that Su Xinghe had seen were not as aggressive as they are now. When Su Xinghe saw the other party before, the other party's eyes were full of wisdom that had gone through the years. Of course, with the other party's nearly 100-year-old age, such a look is definitely in line with the other party's age, but now Hannibal is completely full of aggressive eyes, if it weren't for the fact that his face hasn't changed much, Su Xinghe would have suspected that the other party is another person.
However, compared to the aggressive eyes, what is even more terrifying is the strength of the other party. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Su Xinghe would never have believed what appeared in front of him. Watching the other party's chest slowly bulge, and then gently exhaling a breath full of influenza, the dust around him was suddenly blown away with a shock.
If it was just that, it would be okay, but the next moment, the strong man who had just appeared in front of Su Xinghe showed his terrifying place. watched the other party's arm slowly stretch out, as if he was stretching his waist, but when the fist reached the end, a terrifying roar suddenly sounded. A thunderous bone joint impact sound in the opponent's body clearly appeared in Su Xinghe's ears, and the most important thing is that when these sounds were about to disappear, Su Xinghe saw a clear air flow rushing out of the opponent's fist.
After stretching his waist, Hannibal's gaze slowly focused forward, and then he took a step in front of Su Xinghe. Then a terrifying roar instantly sounded in Su Xinghe's ears, and Hannibal, who had taken a step, rose directly from the ground in the next moment, and flew towards the drow not far away. In mid-air, Hannibal's hand clenched into a fist, and then landed in the air. Su Xinghe knew very well that Hannibal was not a boxer, and his boxing style seemed to him to be completely undisciplined, just a very ordinary straight punch. However, this straight punch that was hit in the air crushed Zhuo'er directly below him like a meat pie, and Su Xinghe could feel that it was the result of a huge fist pressure, as if he had been crushed from head to head by a boulder.
