Chapter 39: The Snowfield War

There was a "clang" first, followed by a "sparse" sound. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

This is the sound of the mace in the troll's hand after it hits the berserker. Berserkers are the strongest fighters in the Northern Army, and in terms of physical lethality alone, even Martin or Sophia are far behind. Therefore, it is protected as a matter of paramount importance. Hazy, Tree Skin, Stone Skin, Shield, Elemental Resistance, Elemental Immunity, ...... Everything that Martin and the others could use was used on the Berserker. For example, some spells can only be applied to the mage himself, and cannot be cast on others, so simply make the berserker drink a potion that produces the corresponding spell effect.

However, no matter how powerful the protection is, there is also a problem of consumption. Under the attack of many monsters again and again, the stone skin finally collapsed in a hurry, and no longer provided damage reduction for the berserker. And other magic protections are also in danger under the attacks of those monster casters. If it weren't for the fact that Shirley's level was high enough to cast the arcane magic that was not easy to break, and the level of those monster casters was not high enough to cast advanced disarming magic or great disintegration, then the buff magic on the berserker's body would have been washed away long ago.

However, even if there is only a low-level trick to dissolve the magic, it can't be used many times, and there is always an effect. Seeing that there was a flaw in the berserker's magical protection, a fourth-level arcane phantom killer immediately took advantage of it.

Phantom Killer is popular as a low-level magic that can achieve the effect of "instant killing" enemies. However, unlike higher-level instant death magic, it requires a low level of willpower and physical toughness on the target's part to have a good chance of taking effect. And the strength of this axe-wielding berserker has far surpassed that of ordinary humans, comparable to some high-level demonic beasts. After this Phantom Slayer hit it, it certainly relied on the power of the magic itself to cause a trace of damage, but the instant death effect that should have worked was completely none, and that bit of damage was for the berserker. It's simply not enough to see.

In fact, this kind of situation is not uncommon, and the Phantom Slayer is so awkward when dealing with certain targets, even less so when it is cast by the caster himself, and even weaker if it is made into a wand or scroll with a large effect. There used to be aristocratic children who listened to what "stoned their opponents with money" and took the path of magic wand scroll flow. As a result, the entire 30-round Phantom Slayer wand was used up, and few enemies were killed by the instantaneous effect, but more by the smile damage caused by the magic power contained in it.

The magic of Phantom Killer is based on the principle of directly using the power of powerful illusions to rise into a terrifying "monster" to "scare the opponent to death". However, the berserker directly ignored this attack, waving his weapon like a whirlwind, knocking down the surrounding monsters one by one, and then unscrewed off the head of a troll alive, and threw it directly towards the ogre wizard.

Berserkers are powerful, big enough to throw a horse out. Therefore, despite the weight of the troll's head, it still slammed towards the ogre wizard with the sound of whirring wind. This strange hidden weapon actually pierced through the magic protection of the ogre's protective ranged weapon, and smashed the ogre wizard who was casting the spell to a big heel.

As the ogre had just risen from the ground, the dizzy ogre saw the berserker striding towards him, slashing down the ogre warrior guards who stood in his way with his axe. He was about to transform into a gaseous state to escape the terrible axe, but suddenly found that he had been hit by Shirley's monster immobilization technique, and he was captured.

Just as the berserker was in full swing, Martin was not idle, he first waved his hand to summon a black cloud, from which he attracted thunderbolts to kill the ogre, and then freed up his hand to help Shirley deal with the enemy's spellcaster - the powerful ogre wizard ended up like this because the magic protection on his body was broken by Martin's disarming spell.

The massive axe snapped out, and the ogre's head flew into the sky with a puddle of blood. After a clean blow, the Berserker roared into the air.

The ogres, who were known for their ferocity and whose reputation could scare civilians elsewhere with weak legs, retreated step by step under the pressure of berserkers.

Not far behind the Berserker, the Northland warriors were spreading their formations and outflanking their opponents.

"It's amazing...... "After cutting off the black hand of the ogre in front of her, Sophia took a few steps back and looked around.

When the average village is raided by ogres, the villagers tend to flee in all directions. Only those who have the courage dare to gather together and launch a counterattack against the ogre, relying on the strength of the outnumber. However, the situation in front of them is that these northerners dare to disperse and outflank their opponents!

There are veterans of the battlefield, but more of them are villagers who are not experienced in combat, but they are more courageous than the regular armies of most countries.

Sophia saw a militiaman, with his right shoulder shattered by the ogre's mace, fall to the ground and use his legs to entangle one of the ogre's thighs, trying to trip the opponent for a moment and create an opportunity for his comrades.

No wonder these people were able to become conquerors of their homeland...... Sophia thought that she was a Waglian. Sofia's hometown was ruled long ago by the Northland pirates who set out from here. At that time, because of the internal discord among the locals, someone invited the Northland pirates as helpers, and then it was a matter of taking the lead. In fact, this kind of stupidity is not only in Sophia's hometown, but also in other places.

These northerners are called pirates, but they are not just the kind of bandits of the sea who drive pirate ships to rob merchant ships. Rather, they are conquerors with a thirst for the land. They will go around in ships and conquer new lands. Migration in droves. They were also merchants, daring to take risks to do business - to protect themselves with their own swords. They are also farmers, craftsmen...... It's not enough to describe them as pirates.

However...... They did plunder, not only merchant ships, but also villages near the coast, and even thousands of miles inland along rivers. Even when there is no river, he marches with a boat to find the next river. This tactic can only be used if the warriors of their strength are strong enough, and the ships built by their ingenious craftsmanship are light enough.

"The Blonde Beast ......" Sophia dodged, dodging the ogre's wrathful blow. Then he stepped forward and stabbed the opponent in the neck with a sword. Truth be told, Sophia doesn't have a good impression of these Northlanders. Because her hometown was often plundered by the people of the Northland, who burned, killed, plundered and looted all kinds of evil, Sophia herself appeared here to save the people of her hometown who had been plundered and reduced to slavery. Tsk, don't you say that the people of the Northland have already become the rulers of Waglian? Well, who told you that if a group of Northland leaders become rulers, the other Northland leaders will not rob their people?

However, Sophia also had to admit that since the North Sea King unified the North Sea for the first time in history, there have been fewer and fewer raids from the north. The King of the North Sea strictly restrained his people.

Because the King of the North Sea is a very intelligent man, he realizes that there is no way out for a country to be a bandit group.

Of course, things are often multi-faceted, and the organization of righteous people to deal a head-on blow to piracy is also an important reason for the decline in piracy.

In any case, the brief experience of staying in this small village had convinced Sophia that they were not vicious invaders, and that she had seen with her own eyes the hard work and hospitality of these people. That's why I'm willing to fight side by side with them.

"I said, uncle, you're very good at dealing with these big guys. Natasha said to the Northland militia on the side. "Isn't it because you deal with them a lot?"

"Hahaha. The militia uncle smiled heartily, "I often deal with bigger guys, and stick a harpoon on them!"

"It's a whale, from this dimension...... There should be many narwhals, beluga whales, in addition to green island whales and right whales. These are whales that are resident in the local area. Of course, other cetaceans will also come to the area. Martin introduced. Now that several strong enemies have been killed one after another, he can make room for gossip. Of course, this is actually taking the opportunity to take a little rest. With a lot of spells, he's going to get ready for melee combat next, and he has to make sure he's in shape.

"You really know everything. ”

"I don't know everything, I just know what I know. Martin replied.

At the same time, the Northlanders were constantly throwing their spears at each other. For these huge guys, not to mention ordinary bows and arrows, even light javelins, if they are not very accurate, the power is still limited. However, the northerners threw spears that were 2 meters long. If it's a javelin, it's a heavy javelin. It's totally powerful enough to deal enough damage to those big guys. The power of the javelin is extremely important for the entire human civilization, and the ancestors are holding the mark of the obsidian spear to kill those huge cave bear lions, and even the unusually large mammoths, and finally fight for mankind. Humans can even paddle canoes to the shore and use stone-tipped spears as javelins to hunt the huge whales in the sea. The Northlanders, on the other hand, hunt 20-meter-long sea beasts either by magic or psionic powers, but by their fearless spirit and a whaling fork (which can be regarded as a special javelin).

Even the trolls. Although the regeneration ability is very strong, after being inserted with so many spears, there will always be a strong restriction on movement. When the spears were enough, the Northlanders swarmed up, grabbed the hilt of the spear and overthrew the troll with all their might, before striking the fatal blow with their axes. The axe used by the Northlanders was just right for these massive monsters. It's powerful enough to inflict heavy damage, and even if the axe isn't agile enough, the opponent doesn't have enough agility to dodge.

Of course, if both sides line up against the wall. Then the monsters who are strong and do not lose the body must have the upper hand. However, Martin and the other elite killed the opponent's good players, and in addition cut the opponent's formation. The situation is very different. In addition to the martial arts and bravery of the soldiers on both sides, the degree of organization is also very important. To put it simply, the higher the degree of organization, the more you can play the advantage of playing more and playing less locally.

At first, many of the militia who went into battle for the first time were still afraid, but as the battle progressed, Martin and the others killed the opponent's spellcaster, especially after the berserker was in the limelight, their blood boiled all at once.

Those who can persist in living on this land will not be too weak in themselves. Otherwise, it would have been eliminated by the harsh environment and endless monsters.

The members of the Northland team, armed with two-handed axes, cut down the huge ogres like they were felling. I saw that the two of them always cooperated tacitly, lured the enemy to attack, and then seized the opportunity of the enemy's old move to lower their bodies and slash the ogre's thigh. Continue to pounce on its arms and slam it down. Generally, you can always get out smoothly before the opponent grapples. Occasionally, if they are caught, their teammates will be able to swing an axe to the rescue before the ogre squeezes hard. These were originally powerful heavy warriors, but at this time they were flexible. After all, even heavy armor may not be able to get much benefit from a blunt weapon in the hands of an ogre, and it is better to take off the armor in exchange for mobility. In fact, agility and mobility are part of defense.

And the witch is also trying her best to contain the remnants of the other party's spellcasters. Shoot magical arrows, then sprinkle mysterious powders, light strange incense, spill strange liquids, and many other effects. For a while, a group of black feathers swirled and slammed into the opponent's eyes, making it impossible for the opponent to cast spells. After a while, slimy clumps of dirt will emerge from the land and attack each other. This is some of the unique magic of the Northland Witch, mysterious, rustic, primitive. However, it also has a unique effect. When Martin first took part in the assault on Black-robed Bull's castle, there were witches in his ranks, unlike mages, warlocks, psychic warlocks, and so on. The witches of the Northlands are different. Martin was an eye-opener.

The wolves roared as they jumped up and down to attract each other's attention. Their movements are so flexible, twisting their waists in the air again and again to avoid the attacks of monsters, and they are always so stable that they can immediately stand firm and launch new attacks. However, they weren't really engaged in the attack. No matter how fierce these canines are, the length of their teeth is always limited. It's fine with smaller animals. It's hard to deal with these big guys. If you run into an ogre. They know how to attack their ankles, bite their Achilles tendons, and then attack their throats and the like. However, the current target wears combat boots and throat armor around their necks. Their fangs are of limited power, so they do some harassment and containment work, and they don't just stumble. It's amazing to be able to train an ice wolf like this. Martin is a druid, and he knows a lot about it. In fact, not to mention the ice wolf, even the knights, often charge uncontrollably when they fight. There is no way that these ice wolves can do this.

Martin looked around and saw a Northland militia fall to the ground, and immediately took out his healing wand and walked over. Now the scene is completely under control. His role should have been reversed as well.

Instead, Zari took out her wand early and converted her role into a healer. Apparently she was passively avoiding the war. Martin shook his head, wondering how to punish her.

The battle is gradually coming to an end. The captain of the Northland squad looked around and saw that the loss was not large, and he couldn't help but feel relieved. He thanked Martin gratefully. This is possible thanks to Martin and others. It is they who counter and kill enemy casters, and take out powerful enemies at targeted targets, giving Berserkers buffs that take their strength to the next level. Finally, the wounded were rescued. Otherwise, this battle can be won, and it will be a miserable victory.

"You're welcome. After all, we need your help along the way. "Martin is humble. Just then, the berserker's long howl was heard. With no more opponents on the feet, the Berserker's sanity is gradually returning.

When the victors withdrew from the battle and returned to the village long after. On the battlefield, there are a few sneaky guys.

"Well, join forces, and our Earl!" said one of the Lasians. "Just now, in order to prevent them from finding out, we didn't come to this battlefield. But now you see the ruins of this battlefield. It is terrible to know that they are Doco. You also know the strength of this village, that group of militia alone, and even a squad of the Northern Army, can't achieve such a victory!"

The other shadows did not speak. Instead, he looked down on the snow and asked for something.

"What is he doing?" asked the Lacian to the man's companion.

"Inferential deduction. The man's companion replied. "He's using those clues to reconstruct what happened. ”

"There are footprints of Icewolf...... There is a toe that is missing from the left forefoot...... It's two...... Tsk, look at this fragment, such power, such brutal methods, it should be a berserker, right...... Ah, this arrow still has a remnant of magical power, it must have been shot by a witch...... Well, the traces left by the druid's spells...... The lightning strike technique can be used so many times, and the rank must not be low. Ha, look at these spell traces, a great combination, at first glance, it looks like a high-achieving student taught by the Academy of Magic...... Well, it can be seen that the Northern Army has provided a team to assist them, but their own strength is not weak, and they are completely above that Northern Army team. ”

The Rasians, who were standing on the sidelines, stared at them in surprise. This is really a miraculous skill, just through those traces of reasoning and connection, it is possible to analyze the various attributes of the people who have fought in this kind of battle before so clearly.

"Let's join forces!" the other responded. This is exactly the answer that the Lasians need. However, he was a little scared.

Because, he knows, these monsters used to be this person's subordinates. However, because those monsters did not obey the command, and the goal of marching was too big to attract the army of the Beihai Kingdom, so they easily sacrificed those monsters here to test the opponent.

Such a ruthless and decisive character, teaming up with them, I'm afraid that I have to always guard against the other party stabbing in the back.

"That count of yours mainly wants that paladin, right?"

Of course, he didn't want to let anyone else go if he had the chance. The people of Lasia thought so. However, he knew how to answer, "Yes, the dark elf, is yours at all." ”

"The main thing is that the conversation is over, and if you want to talk about the details, you and my subordinates will talk about it in detail. There's nothing for me to do here. As he spoke, he stretched out a leather-gloved hand, pressed down the brim of his hat, and floated away.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Huhu, who was obsessed with bow and arrow sports before. Now I've got it to the point where it looks good -- it's still far from it. Yesterday afternoon, I shot a 16-meter, 12-meter, 10-arrow in Huang. In other words, I really got a lot of help from my cold weapon friends who I met several years ago in archery, and I saved a lot of money and detours.

Other fitness activities such as running, pull-ups, etc. are also being carried out, and it feels quite good to do 13 pretends in front of others in one go.

and boldly did something that he could do while he was young, and the final result was that this wave was not a loss. The main thing is that it has greatly enhanced my self-confidence and ability to do business, and I have been trained.

In short, I'm sorry to delay the update for various reasons. But seriously, there isn't as much motivation for updates as there used to be. You guys give me more reviews and stuff like that. Also, there are fewer fantasy objects to see, and there is no inspiration in my head. I also recommend some fantasy books.

When I was learning to take the first subject test before, an idea came to me. Wrote half a story. Unexpectedly, it was partially verified in the incident of Hou XX being beaten. I'll finish writing that story and send it in, so let's count it as a short or medium-length synopsis.
