Nine Chapters: The white-hot of the giant mallet
After following the skeleton army into the castle in a fog, Zhang Long unconsciously learned more about Shande. www.biquge.info The reason why this necromancer can control such a large number of skeleton soldiers is not only that his strength is indeed strong enough, but also that he is inseparable from the summoning style of "cutting corners": although these skeleton soldiers have considerable strength, their IQ is really not flattering, and they can only complete simple charge, slash or block movements, and have no combat skills at all. To put it mildly, with Zhang Long's current strength, if he overcame his fear, it would not be a problem to defeat five of these skeleton soldiers at the same time. As for the engineering battle just now, Shande's style of play did not have any military strategy, and it was completely relying on the numerical superiority to push brainlessly, if it weren't for the limited number of castle defenders, plus the lightning from the sky quickly disintegrated the enemy's long-range threat, it would have been impossible to win so easily. Now that they have managed to fight inside the castle, they will have a tough battle against the beast-like enemy in the cramped environment!
"Whoa!" a large group of demonized soldiers howled from the corner of the cloister, surging "in all directions". The so-called "all-round" is because these demonized creatures can climb the wall sideways with their claws, and even hang upside down on the ceiling to run, and their posture is as strange as a huge humanoid spider with black pressure! With only simple fighting instincts, the skeleton soldiers who are not afraid of death raise their bone knives and hula to meet them head-on, and it is a melee! For a while, flesh and bones fly together, the sword light is the same color as the belly, and the foul-smelling demonic blood sprays everywhere, which is not spectacular. Seeing that the demonized soldiers were piling up one after another, Shande chanted the incantation loudly, and the corpses of the demonized soldiers who fell to the ground let out a violent buzz, and after shaking and bulging, a deafening explosion sounded in a row, and the masonry and rubble mixed with mutilated limbs and internal organs flew everywhere between the flames and blood mist, and the entire corridor collapsed, and even the monsters that were not killed were buried alive.
", are you crazy?" Exclaimed Esenhard, "If you blow up the castle, we won't survive!"
"Don't worry, our McAure's castle can't be tofu dregs!" Sander laughed. What he said was true, although the cloister had been completely blown through the ceiling, and the condition of the upper floor was clearly visible, but this explosion did not shake the foundation of the castle at all. This corpse explosion wiped out a lot of skeleton soldiers from several sides at the same time, and Shander walked forward, picking up corpses that were not so fragmented to replenish the troops. Zhang Long watched from the sidelines, and sighed in his heart: Three-dimensional is different, "corpse explosion" is the necromancer's clearance skill in the game, that's because Blizzard didn't set up the concept of accidentally injuring allies in the game for the player's experience, how can there be such a good thing in reality? If you use corpse explosion as recklessly as you do in a game, your skeleton army is estimated to be blown up with the enemy in a few clicks!
Sander continued to lead his army to clear the castle of the remaining enemies, and the operation went even more smoothly than expected, and the large wave of demonized soldiers just now was arguably the last "formed" resistance they encountered, and the enemies encountered in the next few floors were sporadic raids. It's a threat to a lone human, but the four of Shander are protected by a sea of skeletons! The demonized soldiers who emerged from unknown corners were at most slashed and chopped into meat sauce after killing one or two skeleton soldiers. Occasionally, a slightly more powerful demonized knight appeared, and he was killed by the sea of skeletons rushing up in an instant, and there was no chance at all.
Along the way, they saw a lot of human corpses that had been torn to pieces, apparently disposed of in advance by their demonized companions. These poor fellows may not have figured out what the attack was all about until they died, and it was impossible to think that the attackers and the forces that had turned their comrades into monsters were not the same people. They died in the middle of the antagonist side, and it was really enough......
"Smack!" As soon as he climbed the next staircase, the skeleton soldier who walked at the front was shot through the skull by a crossbow from nowhere. The summoning magic infused into the cranial cavity leaked out, and it collapsed with a thud, turning into a useless mass of dry bones.
"It's a human!" Sander frowned, "I wasn't killed by my demonized companions, it should be a tough guy, and the trick is high!" He waved his bone staff, and the skeleton soldiers rushed up the stairs in a swarm, but a calm shout suddenly sounded upstairs: "Release!"
"Bang bang!" followed with the sound of the crossbow bursting through the air, and seven or eight skeleton soldiers were pierced on the spot. The bones that followed them continued to rush forward, only to hear the man shout again: "Shield wall!"
"Bang!" apparently the skeletons crashed into the shield wall. I knew from outside the castle that this kind of hand-to-hand combat, the white bone army without IQ could not take advantage of anything, especially at the junction of the narrow staircase and the cloister, after a series of crisp "clicks", the skeleton soldiers who had been stabbed by spears fell down the stairs with a grunt.
"Damn, that's a hard ballast!" Sander muttered, the bone staff swaying again, this time led by the Iron Stone Demon, leading a small group of skeleton soldiers straight up. There was an immediate exclamation from upstairs, but the commander's voice remained calm, shouting, "Steady!"
Just kidding, how can the strength of the Iron Stone Demon be blocked by a mere shield wall and spear array? After Kuang Kuang made a few crisp sounds, there were a few screams from upstairs, and the commander obviously broke his man's hand, so he had to order: "Stay in formation and retreat, I'll deal with it!"
With a majestic roar, there was a dull loud sound of heavy objects hitting the metal from above, and the four of Shande seized the opportunity to follow the skeleton soldiers upstairs, and finally saw the true face of the commander. Speaking of which, Zhang Long actually had a relationship with him: the direct lord of Lake Village, the knight of Dangerous Rock Castle who had indirectly saved him from Noklan's demonic energy, Lord Joholm!
At this time, Joholm was wearing a full set of gothic armor covered in blood, and his heavy hands were slashed with the hammers, and he was fighting with the steel stone demons. The huge steel stone demon had been knocked out of several large holes, and its movements were very embarrassing, and the team of skeleton soldiers that had attacked with it had already been taken care of by Joholm's men, scattered all around. The group of human soldiers was less than twenty people, but all of them looked resolute and still had fighting spirit, and when they saw more enemies attacking, the shield wall was instantly erected, and the crossbowmen shouted, and at the same time shot at the enemy, and the skeleton soldiers who were blocking in front of Shande and the others suddenly fell seven or eight.
"Up!" Sander pointed with his bone staff, and the sea of bones frantically covered the past. Seeing this, Joholm was not afraid, and with a roar of the tiger, the mallet struck down and smashed the head of the steel stone demon. The stone demon shook twice and fell to the ground, Joholm bravely faced the sea of skeletons in the cheers of the soldiers, and with another roar, the mallet in his hand smashed out with a round of afterimage at a speed that was difficult to see with the naked eye, and a large group of skeleton soldiers turned into powder on the spot!
"White hot"! Zhang Long immediately recognized this paladin mystery, and almost screamed in surprise. Although the "White Hot Knight" in the hands of gamers uses more sword and shield combinations, but in the third dimension, the domineering spirit of the two-handed mallet is unparalleled!
"Lord Joholm!" the soldiers were deeply encouraged, they shouted in unison, and the shield soldiers rushed forward, and the solid tower shield knocked the skeleton soldiers into a twist and turn, and before they could stand firm, the spearmen used the momentum to push out their spears, and the skeleton soldiers suddenly fell into a large area. Shander looked coldly, the drum staff was horizontal, the sea of bones temporarily stopped the momentum of the forward rush, Joholm was finally able to catch his breath for a moment, stood in front of the soldiers, slowly raised his head, and saw Shande's face, and froze on the spot.
"Santoku-sama, what's the matter...... How could he lead an army of skeletons to attack his brother's castle, and what evil methods did he use to turn those faithful knights and soldiers into monsters?
"You're a hero, old man will let you die!" Sander said solemnly, "That witch Nokolan is the embodiment of the Destruction Demon Grand Wizard Carranso the Destroyer, and Daric has been bewitched by her. She had already controlled the entire Rock Fortress, so the king personally asked the old man to come forward to clean up the mess. Although you haven't been corrupted by this demon yet, this matter is about the face of the royal family, and you can't leave any trouble, so I'm sorry!"
Joholm was dumbfounded, and his soldiers were shocked, unable to believe that what Sander said was true. However, they didn't have a chance to think deeply, and the sea of bones rushed in, drowning them all in an instant, and the waves of bones washed wildly, leaving blood all over the ground, and the majestic malllet that Joholm had used......
