Chapter 353: Battle of Blade Fortress

Strictly speaking, the lich is not considered an undead race, they are a normal race in the Northern Continent, but they have cultivated soul crystals and can control a large number of undead with [Undead Transformation Technique].

In order to become a lich, one must be at least a high-tier elite in order to have enough focus to control these undead. In the Northern Continent, if the Lich Clan wants to advance to the high-level elite, they must face brutal competition. During this period, their physical bodies, which they rarely cultivated, would inevitably be damaged, and many more lich demons even changed their bodies when they advanced to this battle rank.

Therefore, when the people of the Western Continent see the lich, they always appear with a dilapidated body, because they change their bodies so often that they neglect to maintain their flesh.

The number of lichs guarding Blade Fortress is not large, only a dozen. But even these dozen or so lichs were able to assemble an army of 50,000 undead, which shows the rebelliousness of the [Undead Transformation Technique]. It is impossible for an ordinary small country or town to resist the invasion of this army of 50,000 undead.

This is also the reason why the Lich profession is highly regarded in the Northern Continent.

Originally, in the face of the five thousand steel torrents of the Demon Armored Legion, although it seemed very difficult to deal with, these dozen or so lichs didn't care. They have experience with these magical armors, and as long as they surround them and constantly resurrect the undead, in order to drain the power of these Black Iron Giants, they will soon break through and retreat.

However, now, the army of the undead that they rely on for survival is constantly breaking away from their control, which means that their army of the undead is constantly decreasing, and they cannot maintain their combat strength with resurrection!

This discovery literally killed them. What made them even more horrified was that after the undead who were out of control were resurrected, they actually turned against them en masse!

On the battlefield in front of Blade Fortress, a strange scene occurred. With the advance of the Magic Armored Legion. The undead were harvested and fell like wheat, then stood up again, and after a moment of confusion, immediately followed the Wizard Panzer Legion and rushed towards the undead army in Blade Fortress. Most of these undead who have risen back on the battlefield are mutilated, but this does not prevent them from hating the Expeditionary Force of Damnation. They don't have much combat power though. But it can strengthen the momentum of the Magic Armored Legion.

"Newly resurrected Void Spirit Clan, please don't be confused, those who are physically crippled, please go to the rear to receive treatment from the magic guide armor as soon as possible, you are an important member of my Void Spirit Clan, and you are not in a hurry to find the Divine Curse for revenge. ”

Fugart and some of the Ethereal Clansmen constantly sent out such soul exchanges, directing these defective undead to the rear in an orderly manner to prevent them from disrupting the charging formation of the Magic Guide Armored Legion. However, the effect was very small, and only a small number of newly resurrected Ethereals followed their advice and headed to the rear, and most of the Ethereals were full of hatred. Sandwiched between the Magical Armored Legions, charge forward. More of the ethereal spirits were trampled by the chaotic army, and in the end only a skull remained, and some could only exist in the form of ethereals.

Vivien, who was in charge of the command, didn't expect this to happen, but she couldn't stop the charge at this moment when the two sides were fighting, and she couldn't let the pilots of the magic armor distract the new members of the Ethereal Spirit Clan at their feet, and she was a little overwhelmed for a while.

Fugart also has no way, the only drawback of the two spells [Slavery Contract] and [Ethereal Transformation]. That is, they can only cast spells when they are weak or dead, if they want to cast spells directly on those intact undead. The result is bound to fail.

"Mentor Carlos, Mentor Vivien, judging from the current battle situation, we are not short of mana output, and we can let the Battle Mage Magic Guide Armor use the [Mage's Hand] to force those new Ethereal Clans that are hindering the charge to the rear, and clear the forward path of the rear fire group. Keep up with the forward regiment in time. ”

Carlos and Vivien's imaging screen shows Lehman's innocent bull's head.

The two of them immediately adopted the advice of the Minotaur Rayman, and ordered the battle mage who was hovering at low altitude behind the stormtrooper group to stop the attack and use the [mage hand] to carry the new ethereal spirit clan who ignored the order.

Rayman's overall view is good, and the Magic Armor Legion is currently divided into three levels: the spear and shield armor in front is mainly to charge and defend against the opponent's attacks. The combat armor in the middle is responsible for mana output at medium range, the staff armor in the rear is responsible for ultra-long-range and powerful ranged attacks, and a small part is responsible for repairing the stormtroopers.

For the Stormtroopers, all they need to face are the undead of the place. Since the combat armor is suspended at a low altitude, there is no danger of being blocked on the ground. Only the ranged troops that follow in the rear will be blocked by these new ethereal spirits, and if they can't keep up with the speed of the stormtrooper, they will not be able to provide strong fire support and repair support to the front in time, and the stormtrooper will soon be besieged by the other side.

As soon as Vivien's order was issued, the rear regiment's advance speed was much smoother, and the damage of those newly resurrected Ethereals was greatly reduced. Most of the drivers of these battle mages are students of the Retans Academy of Magic, and they usually pay great attention to the cultivation of concentration, and usually have three or four orb guards. Coupled with both hands, a Battlemage Wizard Armor can capture five or so Ethereals at once, and then place them at the rear of the Legion with their roars.

With their mutilated bodies, they are destined to only eat ashes in the back, which can also make them calm down.

Vivien also ordered the Stormtroopers to reduce their charge speed a bit, giving the Ethereals and Combat Armor time to operate the new Ethereals.

............

As there are more and more new Ethereal Clans behind the Wizard Armored Legion, the army of the undead in Blade Fortress is also decreasing with a visible trend. And due to the panic of the lichs in the rear, the army of the undead inevitably had a chaotic situation. There was also a split among the lichs in the rear, with most of them planning to retreat and a few holding on. They talk distractedly, and certainly can't manipulate the army of the dead very well.

The lich's final discussion resulted in holding on to Blade Fortress, waiting for reinforcements, and reporting the horrific phenomenon to Elvis Noah, the commander of the Damned Expeditionary Force.

As a result, the undead army broke for the first time, and despite the unstoppable charge of the Charger and the powerful summoning spells, they all handed over their backs to the Magic Armored Legion and retreated towards the Blade Fortress.

The Demon Armored Legion has been harvesting the lives of the undead army until it rushes to the "city wall" made of Blade Mountain, and then has to retreat calmly against the many mana bodies and arrow rain of the undead army.

Although the "city walls" made of sharp rocks of Blade Mountain were not strong at all, there were too many of them, and when attacked, they flew around, and the huge number could even bury the magic armor, seriously hindering the speed of the charge.

The magic armor of this half of the army was Richard's trump card in the coalition forces, and Vivien, fearing that it would be lost, ordered the whole army to retreat slowly, while sorting out the gains of this battle. (To be continued.) )
