Chapter 160: The Trumpet (2)
The so-called war, in fact, is nothing more than the collision of spear and shield, 200 years ago, the undead legion exposed the weakness of the lich itself that led the army, and it was easy to be killed by human surprise attacks, so in these long 200 years, the supreme commander of the undead legion, the demigod Lich Conse, set out to improve, the more powerful white bone monsters, powerful warriors from the blood allies, and all kinds of vicious undead defense magic...... Under the protection of these things, it has become almost impossible for human armies to emulate the feat of Fernando and others 200 years ago.
"It's a pity that Ryan isn't here. Adela finally shook her head unnoticed, for she had discovered the greatest weakness of the undead army that was besieging the city, but she had no one on her hands to carry out the task. In fact, the army of the undead is not invincible, and the boundless "sea of the undead" may seem terrifying, but it is the best target for powerful mages, and if there are mages who have mastered the magic of mass destruction, they can directly turn the tide of battle.
Now there are only 2 magicians with such strength in the human side, Victor naturally wants to sit in the imperial capital, Ryan is unconscious and doesn't know what is going on now, the great magician Faraz and Clifford who barely have such strength are not here, and others such as Barbara's magic legion are from the imperial capital, The magicians in Mochizuki City who support the Cassano Magic Guild do not have such power, they can act as firefighters and help allies achieve partial victory on the battlefield, but they do not have the power to change the outcome of the battlefield, in other words, they do not have the right to dominate the battlefield.
"Bang!" The mountain of white bones outside the walls of the Iron Fist Castle was suddenly opened, and in the midst of countless white bones, a huge undead creature emerged from the ground. The body of this white bone demon beast was all assembled from the bones of dead creatures, and when it appeared, a pungent green cloud of decay mixed with an unbearable stench rushed towards the front, and the human warriors closest to this white bone monster were eroded by this green cloud of decay, and the flesh and blood on their bodies immediately began to rot, and they let out a scream that shook the sky, but they still couldn't stop themselves from turning into a living white bone.
The white bone demon beast climbed up from the ground with force, and its appearance was completely revealed in front of everyone, although this monster used the white bones of various dead creatures to assemble it, but its overall form was still quite similar to a huge python, but on the link-like body of this white bone demon beast, there were many white bone hands, which made it more like a centipede.
"Roar!" The white bone demon beast roared towards the sky with its long mouth, its body was completely composed of bones, and there was no flesh and internal organs at all, it was really strange how this sound came out, of course, the Cassano warriors who defended the Iron Fist Castle did not have time to think about this problem, because after the white bone demon beast roared, the warriors near it suddenly felt that their bodies had become extremely weak, and many warriors who were usually extremely strong suddenly found that the hammer in their hands was so heavy, even if they used all their strength, they could no longer lift it。
The lower body of the white bone demon beast crawled on countless rotting corpses and white bones, its body was huge, and the crawling speed was also quite fast, and it rushed to the top of the city wall in a few breaths, dozens of Cassano warriors wanted to fight to block its advance, but their attacks could not cause any damage to this white bone demon beast at all, and the body of the white bone demon beast was covered with sharp bone spurs, and it would slam its body into the Cassano warriors who were blocking its progress with a random movement, knocking them away or directly piercing their bodies with sharp and sharp bone spurs。
In the blink of an eye, the white bone monster had killed hundreds of Cassano's defenders, turning a small section of the walls of the Ironfist Castle into a no-man's land, and a large number of undead warriors behind it followed closely behind it towards this defensive gap, and the defense of the Ironfist Castle was about to collapse as a result.
Just when everyone was a little flustered, Adela's voice fell from the sky: "Stand back, let me deal with it!" Before the words fell, Adela brandished Andrew's two-handed giant sword and flew down from the sky, and the blade of her sword pointed at the head of the white bone demon beast that didn't know what mess of bones it was put together.
The white bone monster beast also sensed Adela's arrival, it stopped crawling forward, looked up at the sky, and when it was determined that Adela could no longer change the direction of his actions, the head of the white bone monster suddenly cracked, as if a terrifying ancient beast opened its own blood basin mouth, countless sharp bone spurs appeared at Adela's feet, as long as Arad fell into it, it would immediately turn into countless flesh and blood fragments.
Seeing that Adela was about to be killed by the white bone monster, who knew that Adela's body suddenly had a dazzling red light, and the Andrew two-handed giant sword in her hand burst out of flames several meters long, and when Adela's body was less than five meters away from the head of the white bone monster on the ground, her body suddenly began to rotate, and soon, a hurricane mixed with flames appeared.
Compared with the Beast Emperor's "Blade Storm", Adela's flame whirlwind attack is not comparable to the rotation speed at all, usually the rotation of this speed is difficult to produce powerful lethality, but after Adela borrowed Ryan's mana, he ingeniously added deadly magic flames to this insufficiently powerful whirlwind attack, thus creating his own secret technique "Raging Flame Strangulation".
Adela was very confident in the Mithril full-body armor on her body, which was made for her by Ryan herself, which gave her the feeling of being able to fight side by side with Ryan, and the weapons in her hands were extremely sharp, and after adding the flames, they became completely invincible, which gave her enough confidence to destroy everything in front of her.
"Flutter!" With a soft sound, Adela's "Raging Strangulation" slammed into the long-awaited white bone demon beast on the ground, whose sharp bone spurs did not bother Adela at all, and quickly dissolved as if the snow had met flames. Adra's "Raging Strangulation" slammed into the Bone Beast's body, shattering the massive undead creature to pieces, and the Bone Beast's dark body's body was purified by the scorching flames of Ade's weapon before it could affect Adra.
After seeing their leader easily take out the formidable enemy, Cassano's warriors cheered in unison, chanting Adra's name, fighting the undead in front of them even more bravely, and quickly repelled the undead onslaught. The lich in charge of the attack saw that the undead warriors under his command were lost, so he had to slowly retreat, and the defenders of Ironfist Castle were given a rare respite when the opponent's forces redeployed.
Adela returned to her previous position, she carefully recalled the scene of borrowing Ryan's mana just now, others only saw Adela easily kill a white bone demon beast comparable to a level 8 demonic beast, but they didn't know that Adra's shock in her heart at this time was far greater than that of others, because the "Fury Flame Strangulation" she created herself usually did not have such a terrifying lethality at all.
With Adela's strength, this level of attack, combined with the sturdy Mithril full-body armor on her body and Andrew's two-handed greatsword over there, would definitely be able to kill all sides in the human race's own conquest, but it was something that Adela would never have imagined if she wanted to easily crush a white bone demon beast. At that time, the situation was critical, if the city wall was lost, then the entire Iron Fist Castle would fall, so Adela didn't think much about it and jumped down, but when she came back, she was terrified, and she couldn't figure out why her strength had suddenly increased dozens of times.
"My lord, those damn bones are coming up again!" Adela whispered to the maid as she thought about her thoughts, causing her to turn her attention to the battlefield again. The undead army in the distance has mobilized a group again, this time the lich who commands these undead warriors has 10 white bone monsters of different shapes around him, and among the army it commands, the kind of powerful assembled monsters also occupy a high proportion, all of which shows that the strength of the lich who is about to attack is far greater than that of the same kind a few days ago, and the Iron Fist Castle is about to face even greater pressure.
Looking at his companions around him, Adela's heart was full of anxiety, although the morale of Cassano's soldiers was okay now, but the exhaustion of the body made the overall combat effectiveness plummet, although Adela could immediately mobilize the unit in charge of Vivien to change the defense, but this can only solve the current dilemma in front of him, which is even more detrimental to the next battle.
"What should I do? Do I want to gamble or change my guard right away?" Adela was full of hesitation, she knew that the time in front of her was very precious, and if she missed this time, no matter what she did, it would affect her morale and combat effectiveness. But no matter what Adela chooses, she will face a greater dilemma, which makes it difficult for her to choose.
"Lord Adela, Lord Adela, a messenger from the Imperial Capital has sent a letter!" a voice called everyone's attention, and Adela looked up to see Vivien's retinue running up the walls waving a letter.
Adela tore open the letter, she read it at a glance, and soon a smile appeared on her face, and then Adela laughed loudly, she waved the parchment letter in her hand and shouted at all the expectant Cassano warriors: "My bravest warriors, reinforcements from the imperial capital are about to arrive!
"Boom!" The entire walls of the Iron Fist Castle turned into a sea of joy, and the Cassano warriors, who were still extremely tired just now, suddenly felt full of strength, and they vented their inner ecstasy in various ways, but soon regained their quiet under the command of the experienced captain, and the battle was about to start again.
Adela looked at the warriors under her with a smile on her face, but her heart was like a harsh winter, in fact, after the undead attacked Cassano, the connection between the Iron Fist Castle and the imperial capital was completely broken, and the teleportation magic array could only barely transmit some incomplete text information because of interference. As for the news just now, it was simply made up by Adela herself, because there were only four words written by Vivien herself on the sealed letterhead: "No reinforcements"!
"Woo!" the horn sounded again, and the brutal battle began again.
