Chapter 348: Defending the City
Looking at the knights who were getting closer and closer, Lyles breathed a sigh of relief, and thought in his heart: "It's worthy of Gray's guy, even with such a huge disparity in strength, there are still so many soldiers alive." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Gray tugged the reins, and the red-blooded leopard burning with flames all over his crotch stopped.
Turning over and landing, Gray strode towards Lyles who was not far from him, he stood in front of Lyles and said a little hurriedly, "Didn't the three court mages come back?"
Unexpectedly, Gray's first question was actually this, Lyles was stunned for a moment, then shook his head, and said with some puzzlement: "Do you mean the court mages who went to collect materials a few days ago? I didn't see them!"
Clenching his fists hard, Gray sighed, shook his head, and said, "Sure enough, I knew that there must be a leader among those demonic beasts. After the three court mages volunteered to break off before, with the strength of their three power levels, I will definitely be able to detect the magic fluctuations caused by the use of flying magic, but they have not evacuated for such a long time, and it is estimated that it has ......"
"If you can kill a professional of three power levels, can't it be a high-level demonic beast?" Lyles replied with a somewhat solemn face.
"I don't know, maybe there is more than one high-level demonic beast. With the same solemn sigh, Gray hurriedly waved his hand and let all the knights behind him start to line up.
Lyles thought for a moment and said, "No matter what, you still need to fight, and the command of this battle will all be handed over to you, and I will only be responsible for rushing and killing." ”
Although Lyles's strength is much stronger than Gray's, compared to his command talent, Lyles is a big cut behind Gray. In that case, he might as well go to the battlefield as a warrior and exert his spare strength!
"How many troops do we have now? And the ...... who are dressed differently Could it be an adventurer?" Gray asked with a frown, looking at the bells and whistles mixed in with the adventurers in the troops.
"That's right, this is the plan of the city lord, and if you hire all the powerful adventurers in the city, you can be regarded as temporary soldiers. Lyles nodded and replied.
Frowning and scrutinizing the circle, Gray loudly ordered to concentrate his forces and group all the adventurers into a pair.
In Lyles' puzzled gaze, he explained, "Although it is quite undesirable to scramble the order of adventurers according to their profession and place them all in the same clan as them. ”
"Because they are not the same as the soldiers, and they have not trained with them. In the course of the battle, if it only affects yourself, it is good, but if it affects a large number of soldiers, it will be a big trouble. ”
As he spoke, Gray turned his head to look at the adventurers who were slowly gathering together, and he continued: "Of course, it doesn't matter if the ranged professionals are adventuring, after all, when they are adventuring in the wild, the ranged professionals must also be standing behind to cast magic support or attack. But when a melee adventurer finds his companion and several people cooperate with each other, they can burst into powerful combat power. ”
Lyles shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "Listen to you, anyway, the commander can I follow you far behind." ”
While the two were talking, another cloud of dust rose in the distance, and Lyles leapt into the air with a slight step on his feet, his blue cloak hunting in the wind.
After observing it in the air, Lyles dissipated the magic under his feet and fell back to the ground, then turned his head to Gray and said very seriously, "It seems that things are a little troublesome!"
"What do you mean?" asked Gray, frowning, a little puzzled.
"Didn't the information you got before say that there were about 30,000 of those Demon Beast armies? Counting the nearly 10,000 that you destroyed before, there are only about 20,000 at most now, right?"
Gray nodded, motioning for Lyles to continue.
"But when I looked at it just now, there were more than 20,000, at least more than 50,000 at a glance. ”
Taking a deep breath, Gray knew that Lyles would not be joking at this time, he waved his hand and shouted loudly: "The whole army is ready, the Wizard Legion is ready to release the Mass Destruction Spell, and it will start to be released immediately within the range of the Warcraft Army entering the standard second stage." ”
"The heavy shieldmen hold your shields tightly, and all of them are on top of them, with barbarians and berserkers on their left and right flanks. The knights rested first, and after the mages began to bombard, the knight legions began to enter combat mode and then waited for orders. ”
"The Legion of Archers prepares to shoot, starts firing within the standard three-stage range of the Beast Army, and stops shooting after the Legion of Magicians has done a magical bombardment. ”
With one order after another, the various legions began to act under the command of Gray, Lyles patted himself, the hilt of the long sword at his waist, and said with a smile: "It's worthy of Gray, the command is still so vigorous, so what should I do?"
"You guy, when the time comes, rush forward with the barbarians and the berserker legions!"
Speaking of this, Gray sighed, showed a helpless expression and continued: "That guy Cornell is really excessive, and when he left, he took with him the only few superior legions in the city. If the troops in the city are complete now, we can easily crush them to slag with this level of Warcraft army. ”
Showing a slightly solemn look, Lyles said with a somewhat bad face: "I said that I was worried that it would affect your mood and cause a mistake in the command, so I haven't told you that I and the city lord think that there is a mole in the city." ”
"Why do you think so?" asked Gray, frowning and puzzled.
Looking at the army of Warcraft that was getting closer and closer, Lyles shook his head and said, "Let's talk about this later, now solve the problem in front of you first." ”
Just as Lyles's words fell, a roar rang out from the archers standing above the city walls: "All shot!!"
Turning his head and looking at the approaching army of demonic beasts, Gray muttered to himself: "Have you already entered the three-stage standard range?" I didn't expect that the mere demonic beasts could advance so quietly and quickly, like a well-disciplined army......"
The standard range is a continent-wide unit of measurement, with three standard ranges representing the archer's best shooting distance, which is three kilometers.
After three rounds of arrow rain, another roar came from the city wall: "All archers stop shooting, magician legions cast magic!"
The arrows shot by the archers all had elemental attribute additions, and thousands of demonic beasts had fallen under the baptism of three rounds of arrow rain.
And the magician legion had already prepared the magic, and after the rain of arrows stopped, the swirling magic arrays behind them released colorful lights.
Countless elemental magic bombarded the Warcraft Legion with a bang, and the massive destruction spells jointly released by two or three vortex mages were terrifyingly powerful and not comparable to three rounds of arrow rain at all.
After the flames and ice, the storm and thunder had dissipated, the scene that appeared in front of the soldiers defending the city of White City shocked them.
After the countless magic fell from the sky, it didn't even hurt any of the demonic beasts, and it turned out that there was a dark black barrier about two meters above the demonic beast army, intercepting all the magic.
"What, what!?, how could a demonic beast release a magical barrier of this magnitude, tsk...... That's a big problem!"
Smacking his lips, Gray complained in a low voice with some unwillingness, and then he raised his right hand high, waved it down vigorously, and shouted in his mouth: "The Heavy Shield Legion goes up and withstands the first wave of impact!"
The galloping wolves opened their mouths and spat out all kinds of magic bullets, and a few stronger monsters released even more powerful magic.
After two rounds of magic attacks by Warcraft, the heavy shield defense line on the front line had already been blown open by three or four gaps.
The wolves that had already rushed to the side of the heavy shield soldiers immediately rushed in along the gap and began to attack the heavy shield soldiers frantically.
"Hurry up, the barbarian legion berserker legion will go up, kill all the demonic beasts that come in along the gap in the defense line, and build another defense line!"
Of course, even if these three legions are quite numerous, they still can't effectively defend immediately when facing the Warcraft Legion that is twice as large as their own.
Gray frowned slightly, he knew that the so-called elite troops were needed at this time, and now the only one who could handle it and be called an elite force was that unit.
"Adventurers, take up your weapons, drive out all the monsters that rushed in, and close the left flank defense. ”
Adventurers who dare to take on such a task must have some strength, and if two soldiers and adventurers of the same strength are allowed to fight on the battlefield, there is a chance that the winner will be soldiers.
But if they are all facing Warcraft, adventurers with the same strength can often withstand three soldiers at a time, because they are proficient in Warcraft's attack methods and combat methods.
After the adventurer went up, the monster was still slightly crazy and attacked, and it was immediately defended.
At the same time, the situation on the battlefield has gradually stabilized, and the Warcraft cannot break through the defense line at all, even if the number far exceeds the number of defending troops, but the number of battles that can be fought is almost the same.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the mage legion and the archer legion standing on the city wall immediately began to attack frantically under Gray's order, and the demonic beasts in the back line suffered heavy casualties for a while.
"Alright, Lyles, let's rush in with our special squad!"
Gray waved his hand, and Lyles, who was standing beside him, nodded, and then called out to several powerful professionals standing behind him, and several of them rushed into the battlefield together. (To be continued.) )
