Chapter 9: The Fierce Battle in the Dead of Night (Part II)

Although he knew that a bone arrow might shoot at his vital point at any time, when the white bones of the skeleton appeared in front of his eyes, and the rusty sword in his hand was about to pierce his chest, who could refuse to fight?

So everyone can only be as careful as possible, but when fighting to the death with the enemy, a few people can distract themselves from whether there are skeleton archers shooting at them, so the hit rate of skeleton archers has increased rapidly for a while. Fortunately, because everyone is fighting with the undead, most of the vital points in the body are blocked by the skeleton skeleton, so that although the hit rate of the skeleton archer has increased a lot, the corresponding critical hit rate has dropped to the limit, and most of the warriors are only slightly injured, and they can continue to fight even if they grit their teeth, because the battle damage rate caused by the skeleton archer has decreased slightly, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.

Of course, these undead who finally climbed the city wall did not climb up to play, under the increase of the death canopy, the bodies of these originally slightly weak bone frames were very tough, and there were many warriors who fell under them, and after half an hour, the casualties were aggravated, and the side of Taxi Town lost more than 30 combat strength, and after only fighting for more than an hour, Taxi Town had lost nearly one-third of its combat strength, and the situation was quite bad.

Due to the loss of many manpower, more and more warriors have no one to replace, they have to endure fatigue, let the wound lie with blood, and insist on fighting at the front, the more this is the case, the more likely the soldiers to make mistakes increases, more and more undead creatures break through to the city wall, probably seeing the current loopholes on the side of Tarssi Town, the twelve skeleton knights who have been standing conservatively next to the skeleton lord without moving, among them, there are six bone horses that immediately urge the bone horses under them, and rush towards the city wall with great momentum.

Seeing that these terrifying skeleton knights were about to participate in the battle and become the last straw that crushed the defense of Tarssi Town, those magicians who had gathered around the mayor and had not behaved well before suddenly made a big move.

"O Flame Elves of Heaven and Earth, as your friends, I pray for your help to sweep away the filth of this world, be angry!

"O son of thunder and lightning who sits in the clouds, please receive my sincere admiration, and cast down your spears, and let me behold your incomparable power!

With the chanting of a profound incantation, a large number of fire and thunder elements converged under the guidance of spiritual power, forming a storm vortex burning with blazing flames and two spear-shaped pillars of lightning light. Facing the direction of the six skeleton knights, the three mages who controlled the terrifying magic lifted lightly, and a fourth-level magic flame storm and two third-level magic thunder and lightning spears were skillfully combined under the exquisite control of the mages, forming a fourth-level combined group attack magic with a power close to the fifth-level magic: Fire and Electric Storm!

These three mages are the three strongest in the magic of Tassi Town, they belonged to three different mage groups before, they have fought and cooperated with each other many times, and they know each other very well, through these days of continuous practice, they finally learned this powerful joint magic, of course, the success rate is not high, this time it was successfully released on the battlefield, and it can be regarded as the blessing of the Supreme God.

Under the attack of the flame storm, the white bones on the originally terrifying skeleton knights quickly carbonized, and when the thunderstorm ended, the six skeleton knights were already missing arms and legs, and they were left with a breath of air.

Because they are undead without intelligence, they don't need the wisdom of these skeleton knights to attack humans by instinct, and the death of the skeleton knights can't stop them from attacking, but because the fire and lightning storm also affected a large number of undead creatures when attacking the skeleton knights, how can the defense of these undead creatures at most be compared with the skeleton knights who are already mid-level undead creatures, so the fire storm that tried their best to kill the skeleton knights was just a light wipe, and these undead creatures turned into ashes。

The battle array of the undead creatures was cleared out of the boss's blank, and the skeletons on the city wall were quickly cleaned up by the morale-boosting warriors, and everyone who had been fighting for a long time finally got a precious chance to rest, and the wounded finally had time to clean up their wounds and tie a bandage to themselves.

It's just that after all, they are still in the middle of the battle, and when the undead army in the rear fills the vacancy, everyone who has just put on a breath will have to fight with the undead again.

Time passed minute by minute, seeing more and more soldiers scarred and about to be unable to support it, at this moment of great crisis, the hole cards that had been hidden for a long time on the side of Tarsi Town finally had to be opened.

I saw that a cloud of pale golden holy light fell on the soldiers' bodies, and the wounds on everyone's bodies quickly closed, and the exhausted bodies seemed to rest for a while.

Looking at the priest grandfather and his three apprentices who were standing on the side of the town elder, dressed in a solemn black robe, it was the appearance of this third-level, two-second-level, and three priests that made the originally crumbling defense line consolidate in an instant, and dozens of warriors who were about to lose their combat ability were restored to rejoin the war on the one hand, and the kind of down-to-earth confidence that did not have to worry about the danger of their lives was the fundamental reason for everyone to regain their fighting spirit.

The participation of the priest allowed the line of defense that was about to collapse to hold on, but there were advantages and disadvantages, it was precisely because of the appearance of the holy light that the skeleton lord and the remaining six skeleton knights who were still standing still were instantly like seeing the enemy who killed their father, like a sharp spear, violently inserted into the battlefield, shooting straight in the direction of Tarssi Town, and the spearhead was directed at the priest who was casting healing techniques.

And the other undead creatures also seemed to go crazy, and launched an attack in the direction of the priest at any cost, and the priest who saved hundreds of lives was like a huge taunt for the undead, becoming the target of the siege of all the undead creatures.

As the clergy who are the users of the Holy Light that represents justice, order, and life, the relationship between them and the slaves and undead creatures of chaos and death is well known, and since the mayor dares to invite the priest to the battlefield, he naturally expected and prepared for the emergence of such a situation.

The middle section of the city wall where the priest is located is the location of the mages, the defensive strength is naturally very different, the undead creatures are limited by the restrictions of the siege method, even if they attack in this direction frantically, the increase in attack strength is extremely limited, and the elites on duty here can easily carry this pressure down, and the town mayor Morton also specially appointed Conseil, who is a senior third-level warrior, to hold a fine iron shield to protect the priest in front of him, even if it is the sharp bone arrows of the skeleton archers, don't want to hurt half of the priest's hair.

As for the terrifying skeleton lord and the six skeleton knights, naturally there are strong people such as the mayor who are responsible for resisting, just listening to the chanting of incantations, the light of fire and electricity shines again in the dark night sky, and then fused together, and the storm of fire and lightning that once turned the tide of the battle swept towards the skeleton knights again.

Although it only has the rudimentary wisdom equivalent to that of a beast, it still has the ability to distinguish the fierce auspicious, and the violent energy fluctuations and the scorched earth left behind along the way all show its terrifying power, not to mention that the tragic appearance of the previous six colleagues after being swept by this damn flame has not faded from their memories, even if the strong inertia caused by the high-speed gallop has made them unable to dodge, they try their best to resist while trying their best to dodge, plus the skeleton lord as the boss has shared a lot for them in front, although they are also injured under the ravages of the fire and lightning storm, but they still maintain the ability to continue fighting。

After casting another storm of fire and electricity, the three mages ran out of mana, and they had temporarily lost the ability to continue fighting, because they were all skeletons, the arrows of the archers greatly reduced the attack power of these skeleton creatures, and without magic, the archers could not work, and the long-range powerless Tarsi Town side could only watch these seven undead creatures jump onto the city wall, and then go up to fight in close combat after losing their geographical advantage.

Although it suffered a thunderstorm comparable to fifth-level magic, the Skeleton Lord was a fifth-level undead creature with a serious eight-level history, coupled with the enhancement of the weakened version of the Death Canopy, it still preserved the strength of the fifth-level well, and the mayor and the other two mercenary group leaders could only make use of the natural shortcomings of the skeleton creatures as inflexible as possible, which could block the Skeleton Lord.

Fortunately, although the seriously injured skeleton knights can continue to fight, but the strength they can exert is not much stronger than that of the third-level warriors, the six skeleton knights, as long as the six senior third-level warriors can barely carry it, although the six skeleton knights were not destroyed by the fire and thunderstorm as expected, but they also lost the fourth-level combat power, everyone fought and retreated, and successfully led the seven intermediary undead to the remote place, and the priest also took his apprentices to move in the opposite direction in a timely manner, barely destroying the mayor's plan。

Although the current Tarsi Town side has tried its best, it has only barely dragged down the top combat power of the undead army, and has no ability to kill any of them, but without the threat of these top combat powers, coupled with the healing skills of the priests and apprentices, everyone actually persevered for a long time in the continuous attack of the undead.

It's a pity that humans are only human beings after all, even with the support of healing techniques, they can't continue to fight tirelessly like the undead, not to mention that the priest is also a human, even if the city lord continues to supply magic potions at any cost, the priest can't always take care of everyone, so after holding on for another hour, there was finally an irreparable gap in the weak defense line of Tarsi Town, and the undead who poured up the city wall from this gap helped other places expand the results of the battle, and with their efforts, the gap expanded rapidly.

Although the strong men of the human race wanted to rush over and drive these damned undead off the city wall, they could not protect themselves against enemies stronger than themselves, and they had no strength to do anything else, so they could only watch the warriors fall under the siege of the undead.

I don't know when this long night will end, and the fall of Tarssi Town has entered the countdown stage.
