Chapter 232: Between the Woods (1)
The blood-stained wind chimes still jingle there, but the city that used to be peaceful has changed. The shattered corpses constantly exuded a strange aura, and the body full of undead toxin was so terrifying in the eyes of the elves.
Because these necromancy toxins will pollute the surrounding soil for a long time, causing the originally lush trees to slowly wither and even spread to the surrounding areas. Although the elves were already very fast, the toxins that boiled and the blood containing the toxins from the dead elves still polluted the soil in the city of wind chimes. At least a third of the city will no longer be able to live in the city, but the loss of city area is negligible compared to the dead elves.
For these elven knights, the death of their compatriots was what infuriated them the most, and what made them even more angry was that the culprit managed to escape under the attack of several elven demigods. This is an absolute shame for those demigods, but the problem is that because the other party uses random teleportation, several demigod elves have no way to trace the traces of the space that the other party left.
However, in order to save their face, the oracle issued by several demigods and elves to these elven knights is that the other party has escaped with serious injuries, and as for whether there are serious injuries, then basically only the elf demigods and the escaped Keno mage know. It's just that for Chen Kai and them, they didn't get the help of the elven knights, because these elven knights were busy clearing the undead in the city, and they didn't find out about the undead who had poured into the city lord's mansion.
So when the undead crashed through the shattered walls that were shaken by the elven demigod attack, Chen Kai and the others could only fight alone with their weapons. Fortunately, the wall that these undead smashed into only opened a hole that was not particularly large, so Chen Kai and they were still able to plug the gap, and the moment the first wave of undead rushed in, the dwarves used a few muskets filled with cross-broken magic bullets to kill seven or eight undead lying on the wall in an instant.
It can be said that these bullets fired directly tested the killing effect of the magic power in Chen Kai's body on the undead, and Chen Kai's magic power was the strongest. Even if it was added to other instruments, the evil strike effect he inflicted on filthy creatures was just as powerful, and this was when Chen Kai used magic power. If he uses Dou Qi, the effect will be even more significant. It's just that Chen Kai hasn't tried it, and it is difficult to inject Dou Qi into the spell crystal, at least he has no way to inject Dou Qi into it.
As several crosses lit up, Chen Kai and the others had to fight against the undead who kept pouring into the room in order to save their lives. What made Chen Kai feel cheated was that he was still in the way, and several elven elders, including the elven mage Aaron, were hiding behind and attacking with natural spells.
Although Chen Kai knew that this situation was normal, after all, their injuries were not as fast as Chen Kai and other players, but the problem was that Aaron Ke was much stronger than Chen Kai and other players. So looking at the elves shrinking behind, Chen Kai felt very depressed, but he had to go up. Because Chen Kai is a Templar, and no matter when he fights against the evil forces, the Templar is the hardest to stand in the way.
In fact, there are almost no temples of dawn in the city of wind chimes, and most of the elves also worship the goddess of nature or the goddess of hunting. In the Elven Empire, even the Temple of the Goddess of Life is better than the Temple of Dawn. Although the relationship between the Lord of Dawn and the three goddesses of life, earth and nature is good, it does not mean that the elves agree with each other. For the elves, the Temple of Dawn is a god of the predominantly human race, so it is strictly rejected in the Elven Empire.
However, although the elves rejected the Temple of Dawn, there were still elves joining them, but this number was small compared to the entire elven empire. Among the hundred professions in the Elven Empire, you can only find less than ten magicians or priests from other temples at most, and the knights of the Dawn Temple are even rarer to only one or two. But even so, it still can't change the inherent concept of the elves to keep the Templar in front of them when they encounter evil creatures, there is no doubt that Chen Kai and they are used as meat shields in front of them under this inherent concept, and they don't even have the ability to refute.
Wielding the giant sword in his hand, the number of undead killed in Chen Kai's hand has reached double digits, and these undead elves without weapons are more like death squads that send experience to Chen Kai. However, Chen Kai and the others knew that this situation would definitely not last, if it weren't for the fact that this broken wall limited the speed of those undead elves pouring in. Perhaps they will be directly drowned under the incomparably dense offensive.
No matter how strong Chen Kai's combat power was, when they didn't even have room to wield their weapons, they could only usher in one ending, and that was death. If it was a Sacred Domain level powerhouse, they could use their strong strength to forcibly open a space around them, and Chen Kai and they didn't have that ability yet.
Fortunately, Chen Kai and their lack of this ability as warriors did not mean that the casters behind them did not have the ability to clear the field, in this case, in order to save their lives, including the elven elders such as Aaron, they began to throw spells frantically towards the outside of the broken wall. For a few elves, as long as it doesn't kill them. Even if it is something that temporarily overdraws their magic power, or even something that burns their life, they will do it. One by one, the natural spells that emitted green light fell outside, constantly causing damage to those undead elves, and Xu Fei and them blasted out with one spell after another.
The arcane cannonballs alone unleashed four of them, and the massive explosion nearly shattered the walls outside the gap in the walls of the council chamber. The raging arcane energy blasted gaps in the dense hordes of undead elves, only to be filled quickly. The dense crowd of human heads makes people feel hopeless. Although Chen Kai didn't count, he could clearly perceive that the number of undead in front of him was at least hundreds, and this was already the result of them killing dozens of undead, and at the same time, this was still the undead crowded in the passage.
There was no doubt that the number of undead crowded outside the entire council hall was definitely enough to make Chen Kai and them feel desperate. And it was also necessary to exclude those parts that were entangled in the vines and could not move, and the remaining undead were squeezed into an area after passing through the dense vines, and this area was the place where Chen Kai and the others were facing now. Lightning fireballs continued to explode around the broken walls, and the spider web technique released by He Liwen had been broken through I don't know how many times, and she had even used the last spider web technique material to seal a gap that had just been broken.
"Zodiac! Can you seal it off with an earthen wall? Chen Kai shook his fist and directly smashed the head of an undead elf, the giant sword in his hand had already spun out and inserted into the body of an undead elf outside, and what he held in his hands were two elf long knives taken from those dead elf sentries on the ground. The sharp long knife waved into a series of sword light in his hand, and what Chen Kai forced to do was an incomparably dense undead. At this moment, the number of undead who poured into the room was so large that Chen Kai couldn't wield the giant sword at all, and because of the huge size, Chen Kai had no choice of the weapon of the elven long knife. Not only him, but everyone else as well. Only Guan Yu was still holding on to his Judgment Blade, but in the end, he angrily replaced the weapon in his hand with an elven knife that he had picked up from the ground.
"No more magic!" Huang Dao supported the ground with both hands, as a seventh-order mage player, he had done his best, and it was a miracle that he was able to shape walls from the rubble on the ground in the face of the extremely solid ground. In fact, if it weren't for the magic artifact in his hand, there might not have been a way to reshape the rock that had been reinforced by the spell.
"!" The words "no magic" were definitely the last words Chen Kai wanted to hear, but seeing Huang Dao's appearance, he knew that he had no way to criticize the other party, because everyone knew that the player mages were all fast gunners. The shortage of mana is the biggest shortcoming and common problem of almost all player spellcasters, and many mages are now starting to change careers to become professional otaku, basically nesting in the mage association all day long, meditating and meditating. It's just that Xu Fei doesn't have this condition, although they are basically like this rhythm when they are in Burkner Town, but more often they are stumped by a bunch of things.
When the last spell slammed into the pile of the undead. The spellcasters, including the elves such as Aarun, were in a state of exhaustion, and now the defense line was completely dependent on Chen Kai and them to forcibly support it. Because their fighting energy is about to run out, there is basically not much energy to use for fighting, except for some body lì.
The elf long knife in Chen Kai's hand had already been chopped up, and compared to his giant sword, the texture of the two elf long knives was really worthy of their delicate patterns. In fact, when he first swung it, he was worried that he would cut off the long knife when he directly cut off the opponent's head, but the strength of the undead elf body created by the undead toxin slowly decreased over time, and Chen Kai was able to hold on with two long knives that basically did not have much sharpness value.
But the last two weapons still clicked into two pieces of scrap metal, and looking at the broken weapon in his hand, Chen Kai's face became very depressed. He now regretted throwing the greatsword in his hand to slash and kill the undead, and there was no doubt that if the greatsword was still there, then now he could not worry about the weapon in his hand breaking.
Looking at the giant sword inserted on the ground less than five meters away from his body, Chen Kai sighed, although this distance was actually not far, but through a gap in the wall, it was difficult for him to walk to the edge of the giant sword and pull out the weapon that was inserted in the ground and was about to be overwhelmed by the undead.
Looking at the weapon with only the handle left in his hand. Chen Kai gritted his teeth and jumped out of the room directly, surrounded by undead spirits who kept tearing his armor when his body fell. The dense undead made it difficult for him to even move his feet, but fortunately his massive body had the advantage that these undead could only scratch his body below his chest, not enough to hurt his head.
So Chen Kai grabbed his giant sword and swept it hard, and the sharp blade of the giant sword directly cut off the heads, necks and even upper bodies of the surrounding undead like mowing grass. At the same time, it is deeply embedded in the wall next to him. Fortunately, there was no council chamber behind this wall, so Chen Kai didn't have to worry about the people in the room being scared to death.
But his current situation is not particularly good, because the undead around him are constantly attacking his body, and although the thick armor blocks their teeth, it can't stop the huge power of these undead. After all, these elves are all immortals in front of them. Although they lost most of their spell-casting abilities after becoming undead, the warriors' abilities remained.
Therefore, every blow on Chen Kai's armor was very painful, but fortunately, most of these undead were unarmed, and the better one was holding a stick. There are very few undead with strength in their hands, so Chen Kai can occupy a favorable position here with his armor. But when the Dou Qi Bead on his armor was consumed in large quantities and could not maintain the Dou Qi defense against these blows, Chen Kai began to take damage gradually.
"If only there was some vindictiveness!" Chen Kai panted and pulled out the giant sword, and then continued to sweep it hard, but the sword body that lacked the blessing of fighting qi was no longer able to crush the undead that attacked. All Chen Kai could do was to cut open the bodies of these undead, and he might not be able to cut them completely, because his conjoined body had also begun to decline significantly.
The continuous use of drugs made Chen Kai's body almost unable to use any restoring potions in a short period of time, if it weren't for the aura of Chen Yi's blessing, it was still slowly restoring his body. Maybe he didn't even have the strength to raise his weapon. But Chen Yi's magic power was also running out, and once they lost their aura blessing, Chen Kai's situation would be even worse.
Looking at the undead who were densely packed in the corridor leading to the conference hall, the undead who were already entangled, Chen Kai felt a little desperate. In fact, they had expected the battle to end soon, as the terrifying power and sound had already signaled the arrival of reinforcements from the elves. But the problem is that they have been fighting for almost a quarter of an hour, but there is no sign of reinforcements. At the same time, although the two flying dragons were trying to fly back, Yan zhòng's loss of body lì made their flight speed slower and slower, and they had to stop and lie on an ancient tree a kilometer away from the City Lord's Mansion to rest.
According to Chen Kai's estimate, even if the two flying dragons take off again and arrive here, they probably won't be able to take a few people with them, so it's best for them to pray that they can bear it and carry those so-called reinforcements to rescue them. But for now, it seems that this rescue is far away. At least in the short term, Chen Kai could not see the possibility of rescue arrival.
Therefore, Chen Kai hopes that there is a way to stop these undead, but the dwarves have already consumed all the mines, otherwise throwing a dozen mines in this situation can at least blow up a piece of undead. Unfortunately, dwarven mines are not junk sold in grocery stores, and in the continuous battles, there is no way for the dwarves to take more goods out of their pockets.
No matter how skilled Armand is, he couldn't make dwarven mines out of thin air, he needed metal and magic crystal gunpowder to make zuò dwarven mines, and the magic crystal gunpowder in his pocket now was not enough to reload those Mithril bullets. If it weren't for the fact that the explosive power of these bullets relied on the crystal that stored the divine power instead of the magic crystal gunpowder inside, perhaps the black dwarves would have a third less special bullets on hand.
When Chen Kai's giant sword swept out again, his surroundings had turned into a pool of blood. But these severed spirits did not die. Their bodies are still moving, and if they don't have the Holy Powers to destroy them, they can't kill them unless they completely crush their heads and destroy their hearts. In fact, Chen Kai and the others still couldn't figure out whether these undead elves were more like those biochemical zombies in the game, or more like undead creatures controlled by soul fire.
This is not true to say that they look like zombies. Because if it's a zombie, then it will definitely be finished after cutting off the head or headshot, but they can move even if they are cut in half or even their heads are split in half. But it would not be entirely correct to say that they were undead spirits controlled by soul fire, because Chen Kai and they had killed so many undead spirits without seeing a single shadow of soul fire. In fact, it was precisely for this reason that it was extremely difficult for Chen Kai and them to kill these undead, because they had clearly cut off the other party's head, but they found that the other party could still move. And the next time, if you cut off the opponent's head, you will find that the target has hung up, and the body cost the second attack is wasted.
In fact, not only Chen Kai discovered this problem, but the elven knights who had wiped out most of the undead elves in the City of Wind Chimes also suffered a dark loss in the first round of confrontation for this reason. The severed corpses rose up again and attacked, causing several elven knights to almost fall to the ground and lose their lives. But even so, these elven knights who had teleported from the imperial capital of the Elven Empire still lost dozens of people to adapt to the existence of these undead elves.
Therefore, it is precisely for this reason that Chen Kai and the others have not been rescued for a long time, because the small environment of the City Lord's Mansion is not suitable for the large-scale impact of the elven knights, and in the face of a large number of undead elves with extremely strong lives, these warriors from the imperial capital need to pay a great price to eliminate some and then advance to the City Lord's Mansion little by little, but that is after completely eliminating the undead outside the City Lord's Mansion. Because everyone thought that there were no living people in the city lord's mansion that had been occupied by the undead, these elves didn't know that there were also the city lords of the Wind Chimes City and Chen Kai and them.
There is no doubt that because of the lack of information, Chen Kai and they are not listed in the rescue ranks at all, even if the elves wipe out the undead in the whole city, they will only slowly strangle the undead elves entrenched in the city lord's mansion. (To be continued......)
