Volume 7 The Ferryman of the River Styx Chapter 59 The Ferryman of the River Styx
As Isaac's forces began to move inward, Hugo's forces finally began to use their proudest magical abilities. Almost every fort defended has a powerful protector artifact, some can increase the defense of the warrior, some can slowly heal the injuries of those within the range, and some will make the opponent fall into inexplicable panic. When the second battle began, Isaac's warriors began to feel resistance like never before. Hugo began to truly show the strength of a super-magical power, and all kinds of battlefield magic were thrown into the opposing camp in different ways, and Isaac's attack was at a stalemate for a while.
Moreover, the most terrifying Hugo strategic magic troops have been organized and officially headed to each fortress, and if Isaac makes any mistakes, Hugo will immediately activate the strategic magic equipment in the main tournament to deal a devastating blow to them.
So, shortly after Isaac's second attack began, the attack came to a standstill.
"We all knew that Hugo's magic force was strong, but we didn't expect it to be so strong!"
Grand Duke Fiore complained to Grand Duke Fernando, the Lion who had just delivered supplies. In the distance is one of Hugo's fortresses, and it is also the first fortress they face with a national protection artifact and strategic magic deployment, and the magic warriors inside take advantage of the geographical location to desperately defend it, and most of Hugo's soldiers are stationed near the fortress. The Crystal Burning Cannon is not very effective under the protection of the Protector Artifact.
Although the price of the new crystal-burning cannonball is much cheaper, it is still far from being able to be used to smash the artifact of national protection.
"And how are our Stygian warriors doing?"
The Grand Duke, of course, is still concerned about the performance of these new humans.
"Of course not! It's much better than you, a grain transport officer!"
Grand Duke Fiore said with a smile.
"Not necessarily, I'm a grain transporter to a certain extent more useful than you, a commander who can't take down a fortress. ”
The two Grand Dukes are old friends, and joking with each other can very well defuse the tense atmosphere.
"Actually, I knew from the beginning that it was not easy to fight. ”
Archduke Fernando continued.
"My son-in-law's plan is a bit too whimsical, and to be honest, even if we had been involved in this plan from the beginning, we would never have imagined that this would happen, in fact, I always thought that the plan would further weaken them by increasing their internal friction as pre-imagined. I never imagined that we would one day set foot directly on Hugo's territory, and for the first time I've been a Grand Duke in all my years. ”
"But now think about it, I led the guerrilla attacks in Verne, we tested the mobilization of the army, trained the soldiers, and for the first time used the teleportation circle that Freud gave us to deliver food and weapons. It can be said that everything is more like a preparation for us to fight Hugo. And it was all like that stinky boy had planned it, and if it weren't for the fact that I knew he wouldn't have thought about it that much, I really thought he had done it himself. ”
The Grand Duke looked at the blue sky in the distance with emotion, which was the light of the other party's fortress protector artifact. Every warrior in Hugo is a magician, that is to say, every one of them can provide energy for the protector artifact, and this advantage is absolutely unmatched.
"Now let's wait and see, not every fortress has such a complete defense, those who can be killed will be killed directly, and those who can't be killed will be surrounded by us, anyway, our initial plan was to make them suffer internal friction. With such a large defensive range, I don't believe he can last long!"
Archduke Fiore said.
"Actually, there is no need to be so troublesome, as long as my son-in-law can take out the other party's strategic magic forces, these so-called eggshell systems can only become their coffin boards!"
Grand Duke Fernando said with a laugh.
Hugo's Strategic Magic Force is a special team led by the Vice President, and they wield the power to fear the whole world, and they are the pride of Hugo. It has always been others who are afraid of their power, and no one has ever dared to advance to Hugo so arrogantly, and this kind of madman will become ashes in front of Hugo's strategic magic team. This is something that every member knows.
However, none of the people in this tense march could relax.
Each member sits on the back of a very fast-moving, six-legged beast with a wide back covered with soft fur and a soft layer of fat underneath it. From the outside, this animal looks like a flat-shaped camel. Due to the lack of physical exercise in each of the teams in order to concentrate on the study of strategic magic, most of the members of the strategic magic team are very bloated, and in order to maintain the absolute cooperation of the spirit, they often have to sit quietly on the ground to sense each other, which leads to problems with the joints of their whole body. It is this group of fat people with arthritis and cardiovascular disease who are the most powerful people in Hugo.
No one laughed at their size, because everyone in Hugo knew that they were paying for Hugo. But correspondingly, their characters contradict their stature.
The strategic magic forces are all about strategy, they must get to the assembly place quickly, and complete the preparation of the spell as quickly as possible, but their bodies must not withstand this level of movement, so they find such a contract creature for everyone, and they control their contract creature to almost like their own body, so that they can sometimes complete all the tasks they need to complete without even leaving the back of the creature.
As a result, their bodies become more bloated due to a greater lack of exercise.
This time, the team was led by a vice president, who was also one of the vice presidents who entertained Wang Wei at that time. At that time, the vice presidents who sat with Wang Wei have now died two, and one has lost his limbs and has become a human stick, and life is worse than death.
If at the beginning, he still adhered to the proud character of Hugo people and did not take Wang Wei in his eyes, then now he can easily admit in his heart that Wang Wei is the nightmare of every vice president.
The reason is very simple, because only the vice president can lead this kind of strategic magic force, and the strategic magic force is definitely the most lethal force to Isaac, so Isaac will definitely not allow this team to appear on the battlefield. And against this powerful force, the most suitable person must be that man.
Each of the Vice Deans clearly remembered how the man tore open the mage's shield with brute force, and the person who cast the mage's shield was none other than the famous old immortal. This man was known as the mage killer, the summoner of the troops, the spokesman of death, and some even said that he was the ferryman of the River Styx.
There are so many people who have died because of him.
Although I don't know if the underworld also recognizes this name, it can be expected that he deserves this name.
With such a person, no mage would dare to face him at all.
It doesn't matter if this mage's team is an elite mage unit or a strategic magic unit.
According to the latest news, Wang Wei has appeared on the battlefield, and his whereabouts are very strange, sometimes seeing him here, sometimes seeing him there. Every time he appeared, the local Hugo army would be terrified.
And not long ago, the man had already let out the word that if that strategic magic force dared to show his head on the battlefield, then he would let that bastard only have his head left!
The vice dean looked at the big fat men sitting on the contract creatures, each of them so fat that they couldn't even see their necks.
Are they all so frightened that they shrink their necks?
For this team of only twelve people, Emperor Hugo sent an elite force of 20,000 men to escort it, and there were also at least five such teams rushing to various battlefields. There are a total of six strategic magic troops, which is Hugo's biggest trump card.
After three days of non-stop marching, many of the warriors were exhausted, but everyone knew that they would not dare to rest until they reached the fortress, because once someone else was targeted, the results would be self-evident. An elite magic warrior looks no different from an ordinary magic warrior in that person's eyes, and an average magic warrior seems to be no different from an average warrior in that person's eyes, but it seems that he thinks that a warrior is no different from an average person.
To put it simply, in his opinion, elite magic warriors are no different from ordinary people at all.
The vice president was worried.
-=-
Towards dusk, in front of you is the planned supply point, a small village that looks inconspicuous on the surface, but in fact it is an important supply warehouse for Hugo. However, when the team approached the village, it seemed to be deserted, there was not a single pedestrian on the street, and at this time, the villagers usually sit together to chat or have dinner.
The soldiers at the front reported that they had not found anyone who had come to greet them, and the whole village looked strange.
When the vice president came to the entrance of the village alone, an inexplicable and wonderful feeling of depression suddenly came to his heart.
