Chapter 115: The Decisive Battle at the Royal Viewing Platform (4)
"Whew!" The huge stone slammed into the ground, making the thick earth tremble, and the human warrior Gavin curled up his body in a ball, hiding behind cover, not daring to move.
"Bill, Bill?" Gavin whispered the names of his comrades, but his voice soon stopped abruptly, and the bloody scene in front of him shocked him greatly: under the boulder thrown by the orc catapult, a human warrior lay there with a painful face, his lower body completely under the boulder, blood mixed with internal organs flowing on the ground, making people feel the urge to vomit.
"Damn!" Gavin cursed viciously, and was about to continue greeting the orc female, but a black shadow suddenly jumped next to him, knocking him to the ground, and quickly rolled on the ground a few times.
"Boom!" The dust and the strong impact of the boulder falling on the ground kissed Gavin's face mercilessly, making the latter's "greeting" that had reached his mouth swallow back, and then, a middle-aged man's voice sounded in his ears: "Don't look at the ground, always be alert to the sky." ”
Gavin looked at the middle-aged man who had saved his life in shock, and realized that he turned out to be his squad leader, Donald. The latter's expressionless lecture Gavin said: "If you want to die, just stand up, but if you are still going to marry your woman alive, let me stay behind the cover honestly." ”
Gavin didn't dare to say anything, and honestly lay behind the cover, just now after he was knocked down by Captain Donald, the long sword in his hand actually did not fall to the ground, nor did it cut him and Donald, which was a sign of good luck. Gavin thumped his chest vigorously and muttered, "May this good fortune always accompany me!", and began to stare at the orc position in the distance.
According to their squad leader Donald's description, the orcs will definitely throw a large number of stone projectiles before attacking, although these guys are amazingly powerful, as long as they are not directly hit, they usually do not pose any danger, and when the ground offensive of the orcs really begins, that is the moment of death.
"Whew!" More than a dozen stone bullets flew in the direction of the orc position from Gavin's side, this was the human stone throwing cart fighting back, Gavin raised his head slightly, and followed the stone bullets with full attention, and watched them smash the target.
"Alas, it's a pity. Gavin watched as the stone bullets almost all smashed into the walls of the solid building, then bounced off and fell to the ground, not posing any threat to the orcs hiding in the building, and thought to himself, "It seems that those guys must not have eaten in the morning, and they couldn't hit such a distance." Didn't you say that there were magicians, so I haven't seen them until now?"
Gavin's last two words came out of his mouth unconsciously, and Donald, who was lying beside him, heard it and said in a disdainful tone: "That's because you don't know much." Of course, you haven't seen the power of those magicians, I think when we were in Thor's Fortress, that Ryan magician was ...... alone"
"One man killed tens of thousands of orcs!" Gavin interrupted his captain and said, "Don't bully me for not knowing anything, even if 10,000 people stand there and let me cut them, I can't cut 10,000 people if I'm exhausted." Also, you've said this thing dozens of times, if that Lai ...... What's the name?"
"Stupid, it's Ryan!"
"Well, Ryan. Gavin continued: "If he was really so powerful that he couldn't see his shadow so much, he wouldn't have gone into hiding a long time ago, right?"
"Don't talk nonsense, the orc army is out!" Donald was still focusing on the orc position even though he was arguing with Gavin, and as soon as Gavin heard Donald's words, he immediately became excited, and he said loudly: "It's finally out, see how I kill a few more in a while." ”
Three kilometers away, tens of thousands of orcs lined up in a loose formation, slowly advancing towards the human position, they could still rely on the building at the beginning, which made their casualties not very many, but when they entered the area of the central square, they were immediately subjected to fierce resistance from humans, stone throwers, ballistas, bows and arrows...... Whatever long-range weapons humans could make, they fired without reservation, and a huge amount of ammunition tilted into the orcs' formation, taking their lives without mercy.
The orcs had expected this situation for a long time, after all, the central square of the human race was a huge flat field, which could accommodate millions of people here, and the temporary defense line of the human race was in the interior of the square, which happened to leave the part of the open space directly connected to the outer building complex and the central square, so that the attacking orcs had no danger to rely on.
Of course, the orcs also have a way, they quickly pushed up hundreds of siege vehicles, using the thick wooden planks on the front of the siege vehicle to isolate human shots, as long as they are not hit continuously, the orcs' siege vehicles can block stone bullets and crossbow arrows, as for the ordinary feather arrows, they are densely nailed to the baffle in front of the siege vehicle, which can not have any impact on the orcs behind the siege vehicle, and soon, the orcs came to an area less than 100 meters away from the human defense line.
"Oops, things are in trouble!" Gavin said in a lost voice: "Do you want to form a commando team and forcibly stop ......" Before Gavin's words fell, he saw a bright fireball in mid-air draw a brilliant trajectory and whistling towards an orc siege vehicle.
The bright fireball slammed directly into the plank in front of the siege engine, bursting with a strong light, and then the fireball exploded, and the power contained in it spread in all directions, engulfing all the nearby orcs. The scorching flames ignited everything in the blast area almost instantly, and when the billowing flames dissipated, all objects within the scope of this magic shroud, whether they were siege engines or orcs, all burst into flames, and the screams were incessant.
"This ......" Gavin grew his mouth and looked at the scene in front of him in surprise: "This is really amazing." ”
"It's rare and weird, isn't it?" Donald said proudly, "This is a fire-based flame explosion technique, and it's very powerful." Before Donald could finish speaking, he saw a cloud of ice flying in the sky, this ice cube was hexahedron, and when it crossed the air, it reflected the light of the sun, shining in front of people's eyes and dizziness.
Gavin's eyes followed the ice, and he watched as it flew above an orc siege engine and then exploded. Countless pieces of sharp-edged shards swept through the orc warriors behind the siege engine, blood and screams one after another, even if they were nearly a hundred meters away, Gavin could still feel the pain of the orcs there.
"Captain, what's the name of this magic? It's so gorgeous, it's terrifying!" Gavin turned his head toward Donald, who said with a serious face, "Well, it's amazing, anyway. But now is not the time to think about these things, hurry up and get ready for battle. ”
Gavin's eyes were white, he knew that his captain didn't know the name of the magic, but the orcs were getting closer and closer, and he did have to make the final preparations for battle.
A sky blue lightning swept across Gavin's head, and the sound of "ziz" made Gavin's whole body break out in a cold sweat, and the speed of that lightning was even more amazing than he imagined, almost in such a short moment, it flew over a distance of hundreds of meters. "Ahh
After weapons such as the catapult were ineffective, the human magician intervened. These more than 30 magicians cast spells together, causing satisfactory results, with at least 300 siege engines destroyed by magic and thousands of orc warriors killed. However, the number of orcs is far more than that of human magicians, and after paying a certain price, a large number of orcs still crossed the blockade formed by these human magicians with magic, and those human magicians saw that the orcs were approaching, so they naturally did not stay in place for hand-to-hand combat, and they withdrew from the first line and returned to the rear.
From the beginning of the defense of the imperial capital to the present, the scale of this magic attack is the most violent on the human side, although there have been arrangements for magicians to assist the army in defending key areas before, but after all, the imperial capital is large, and the number of high-level magicians is limited, it is impossible to cover everything, and it is impossible to consume these magicians in vain. Now the orcs and humans will fight in the central square, this is the center of the imperial capital, and it is also the location of the command post of the human race, once this place is captured, the human race will also lose the war, so except for the magicians who protect Catherine, Luke, Orlando and other human leaders, the other magicians are under the leadership of several archmages and magistors, and take turns to teach those orcs a hard lesson with their magic.
Ryan stood on the royal viewing platform and only watched his blood boiling, it was the first time he had seen so many high-level magicians casting spells together, this scene was simply spectacular, Ryan even had the idea of rushing to fight immediately, but after all, he had another important responsibility, so he had to put this tempting idea back in his heart.
