Chapter 611: The Indefatigable Tree Man Puppet
By combining the rudimentary-level water-based magic - rainfall and the beginner-level poison magic - poisonous fog magic, the combined magic is formed - poisonous rain magic!
Its effect is equivalent to a weakened version of the alien blood, its power is only enough to corrode the skin of the orc soldiers, causing severe pain, as for its lethality, it is not as domineering and strong as the alien blood.
Because the intent of the magic itself is to weaken the enemy rather than kill it.
After all, this magic is just a beginner-level spell, and the effect it can play is limited.
However, this magic was very effective at this time, when poisonous poisonous raindrops fell on the shield of the orc soldier, and then flowed into his body along the shield and iron armor.
The intense pain caused by the corrosion also made the orc soldiers unable to maintain their shields any longer, and desperately slapped the poisonous rain on their bodies with their hands, slapping them down from their bodies.
It is worth mentioning that the toxicity of the poisonous rain is continuous rather than immediate, so the corrosion of the poisonous rain is gradually intensified at the beginning, and it is precisely because of this that when the orc soldiers beat the poisonous water on their bodies, the pain caused by the corrosion gradually disappears.
But it was precisely because of this that the orc soldiers, who had lost their shields and ironclad defenses, were also quickly killed and wounded in the face of the arrows that rained down.
A large number of orc soldiers fell in pools of blood with arrows stuck in their bodies!
In the end, the poisonous rain lasted for nearly 5 minutes, and in the time that the poisonous rain lasted, there were only less than ten orcs who were directly poisoned by the poisonous damage of the poisonous rain.
However, the orc soldiers who were shot by the rain of arrows because of this were more than ten times the casualties!
More than 200 orc soldiers died tragically under the rain of arrows!
And during the 5 minutes that the poisonous rain lasted, the efficiency of the orc soldiers' actions to carry corpses and clods of earth was also greatly reduced.
However, after the duration of 5 minutes, I saw that the dark clouds that had originally shrouded the battlefield gradually disappeared, and the warm and warm sunlight shone down again.
At this time, the orc soldiers had never been so eager for the arrival of the sun.
You know, they hated the sun very much!
It is worth mentioning that the area covered by the poisonous rain is only a few tens of meters from the city wall, so the army of orcs behind is not affected by the poisonous rain.
And just after the poisonous rain technique disappeared, I saw that the originally energetic five-headed monitor lizard also withered instantly, but this was because the magic power consumed by summoning the poisonous rain technique was directly extracted from the magic crystal in its body.
In fact, when the three-headed monitor lizard evolved into a five-headed monitor lizard, in addition to its own rank being promoted to become a third-order legendary creature, its greater change was that a magic crystal containing magic power quietly appeared in its body!
This also indicates its transformation from the original beast to the monster!
However, because it had only just transformed into a demonic beast, the magic power contained in the magic crystal in its body was naturally not much.
Therefore, a spell like this poisonous rain spell, the five-headed monitor lizard can only use it twice at most in a single battle, and then its magic crystal can no longer support the casting of the third spell!
And after casting the Poison Rain Technique twice, it must also go through a long period of time for the magic crystal in the body to naturally absorb elemental energy from the outside world to recover automatically, but the time it takes is naturally very long.
At this time, Ye Feng looked at the languishing appearance of the five-headed monitor lizard, and it seemed that he would not want to continue to cast the poisonous rain technique in a short period of time.
So then, they have to rely on themselves.
At this time, when the black dark clouds hanging over the city wall disappeared, the army of orcs in the distance also started to carry corpses and earth blocks again!
Half an hour after the battle, the orc army, under the bombardment of arrows and stones, and at the cost of the death of nearly a thousand soldiers, finally used a large number of clods of earth and corpses to build a steep slope about ten meters high on the city wall under the lonely mountain!
Among them, the corpse of the dead trolls played a large role, so the corpse of a trolls is at least equivalent to the sum of more than a dozen half-orc corpses.
And from the beginning to the present, the orc army has also paid at least 2,000 soldiers to die, but their remaining strength is still as high as nearly 8,000 people, which is more than dozens of times that of the dwarves defending the city!
It is worth mentioning that the casualties on the dwarven side at this time are not optimistic, and in this half an hour, their casualties are as many as dozens of people.
This is because when the height of the earthen slope reached nearly ten meters, the orc archers standing on the ten-meter-high earth slope at this time fired arrows that were enough to pose a threat to the dwarves on the city wall!
Under the conspiracy of the orc archers to draw cold arrows, dozens of dwarven warriors and human slave warriors also died as a result!
At this time, after the earth slope used for the siege was built, the orc army also regrouped behind and lined up in a charging procession.
The ones who were placed at the front were hundreds of wolf cavalry!
Swift as the wind, they can withstand long-range attacks from the dwarven side to rush to the top of the city walls in the shortest amount of time, and then disrupt the formation of the defenders on the walls.
At this time, the half-orc shield soldiers and spearmen behind can also take advantage of this to rush forward.
"Woo......!"
When the low, savage half-orc horn sounded on the battlefield, the wolf cavalry that was originally standing at the forefront also suddenly took action.
I saw them launch a decisive charge towards the lonely mountain!
The swift wolf cavalry quickly crossed the battlefield of dozens of meters and rushed to the bottom of the city wall of Gushan after a while, and then they immediately rushed towards the city wall along the dirt slope of about 45 degrees.
At this moment, arrows rained down from the top of their heads, because the wolf cavalry was not equipped with hard iron armor, so these arrows also caused a lot of damage to them.
From time to time, several wolf cavalry were shot by arrows and overturned, and their companions were also dragged down.
And the crossbow arrows fired by the extremely penetrating heavy crossbow are directly connected to the mounts and cavalry, directly piercing and stringing them into a string!
However, compared to the hundreds of wolf cavalry, the counterattack of the dwarves can only be said to be a drop in the bucket!
With less than a tenth of its losses, at least a few hundred wolf cavalry managed to charge to the front of the walls.
And behind the wolf cavalry, the tide of half-orc soldiers also swarmed in!
Looking at the large number of wolf cavalry who were about to rush in front of him, the dwarven warriors on the city wall couldn't help but nervously clench the weapons in their hands!
However, at this time, when Ye Feng saw that the wolf cavalry was about to rush in front of him, he suddenly sneered, and then he immediately stretched out his hand to the front.
"Summon thistle!"
Then, I saw that the 8-meter X-8-meter area in front of him instantly appeared densely packed with spikes!
Then, when the wolf cavalry rushed over the area, most of the wolves curled up and screamed in the next second.
This was because the wolf's meat pads were now covered with thistles, and bright red blood flowed from their flesh pads, and in a short time soaked the dirt slopes.
With the exception of ungulate creatures such as war horses and bison, no matter what other animals are, as long as they do not wear thick shoes like humans, they will end up like wolves.
If it were you, if you were to walk barefoot over a large number of pushpins, you would definitely be in so much pain that you couldn't walk at all!
Subsequently, when these wolf cavalry who rushed to the front suddenly stopped, the wolf cavalry who followed closely behind also crashed directly into the wolf in front of them as if they couldn't stop the car for a while, like a series of car accidents!
At this time, the dwarven defenders on the city wall also took advantage of the confusion of the wolf cavalry and hurriedly poured attacks on the enemy!
Arrows, crossbows, stones, throwable spears, hatchets, and all kinds of weapons fly through the air!
Blood rage!
A large number of wolf cavalry were killed under this surging firepower, but then, after having these dead wolf corpses as a foreshadowing, the wolf cavalry behind also stepped on the corpses of their companions and continued to rush over!
Finally, after surviving a few rounds of arrows, the wolf cavalry finally rushed in front of the dwarven warriors.
At this time, the number of wolf cavalry was still nearly two hundred!
And at this moment, just as the wolf cavalry was about to collide violently with the dwarven defenders on the city wall, at this time, the treant puppets that were originally used as trebuchets were also under the control of the night front, and nearly half of the treant golems raised huge log stakes and swung them vigorously at the charging wolf cavalry.
The wind is howling!
The log stake, which was about 2 meters in diameter, was waved by the giant force of the treeman puppet, as if it were swatting flies, and directly smashed the wolf cavalry that charged over, and even the people and mounts directly flew out.
Occasionally, some wolf cavalry who slipped through the attack of the tree puppet were stabbed out by the dwarven warriors with spears.
The terrible screams of the orcs and the painful wails of the wolves rang out incessantly.
It is worth mentioning that, unlike humans and dwarves, the Treant golems do not feel tired at all, so they act like robots, mechanically repeating the movement of waving logs in their hands.
With the support of the Treant Golems, the hundreds of wolf cavalry could not rush to the top of the city wall at all, and could only stop on the dirt slope, trying to attack the Treant Golems, intending to break through the Treant Golems' blockade.
However, it is precisely because of this, because the area of the dirt slope is not very large, and as soon as hundreds of wolf cavalry are crowded like this, they directly block the army of half-orcs who came to help behind!
This also caused the army of orcs behind to push and withstand the arrows shot from the city wall!
Although the orc soldiers immediately raised their shields above their heads, from time to time some unlucky ghosts were hit by the stray arrows flying out of the gap, and they couldn't help but let out a scream of pain.
In such a situation, the loss rate of the orc army is also greatly increased, on the contrary, because there are a large number of tree puppets in front, and the dwarven warriors only use their spears to attack the missing orc soldiers in the back, so their task is also relatively easy, and the danger is also greatly reduced!
However, the Treant Golem is not a steel puppet that King Kong is not bad after all, and their wooden bodies, although tough, have definitely not reached the point of ignoring the enemy's steel blade for a long time!
Under the decisive attacks of the wolf cavalry one after another, the tree puppet was finally damaged!
I saw that the first treeman puppet was thrown to the ground by the tide of wolf cavalry, and then a large number of wolf cavalry also pounced, with claws, with sharp blades to constantly attack the body of the treeman puppet, and for a while, a large number of sawdust also collapsed out because of this.
Soon, the Treant Golem was also killed under the siege of a large number of wolf cavalry, and when the Treant Golem died, their bodies quickly turned into a large amount of sawdust and scattered down.
However, under the control of Yefeng, as soon as this treeman puppet died, another treeman puppet immediately filled in its defense gap, and the wolf cavalry in front of this gap was once again resisted in front of the city wall, so that it could not take a step forward!
Under the tireless attack of the treeman puppets, a large number of wolf cavalry died on the way to charge, and at the same time, a large number of orc soldiers could only passively bear the rain of arrows and stones pouring down from the city wall because the path of advance was blocked!
Such an aggrieved death in a situation of passive defense!
Finally, half an hour into the battle, hundreds of wolf cavalry also died in front of the city wall, dead under the log swing of the unaware tired tree puppet!
It's also a shame that the treeman puppets won't feel tired at all, otherwise, if they are replaced by other creatures, even if they are giant, high-defense trolls, although they rely on their huge bodies, they can also wave such huge logs like treeman puppets, but they are absolutely impossible to continue such high-intensity attacks like treeman puppets!
The trolls have already died of exhaustion on the spot!
Where can you continue to fight like a tree puppet with such a high-intensity attack that lasts so long, and can continue to fight vigorously!
At this time, the trolls, let alone continue to fight, may not even have the strength to raise their arms!
It's like letting a human wave an iron rod weighing more than a dozen pounds for half an hour, and it's really an iron man who can't bear to do this!
