Chapter 15: Bloody Battle in the Canyon! above

Two hundred professionals of the Dragon Temple rode all the way to gallop all the way, and finally saw the canyon after a quarter of an hour, and even saw the orc army at the mouth of the canyon, and heard the earth-shattering shouts of killing inside.

Frank and the other four hall masters all breathed a sigh of relief, at least, it wasn't too late to come, and there was still resistance inside. Frank immediately ordered: "Rest in place for five minutes." Change horses and get ready to rush into the canyon to the rescue. "For a long run like this, everyone brings a reserve horse so that the horses don't get overworked. And rest is to give the magician time to recuperate.

......

In the canyon, there were only more than thirty people left in the Dragon Divine Temple, which was originally a full hundred people. They relied on boulders and wagon wreckage on a rocky beach to resist the orc's onslaught. They are exhausted.

A knight cut off the head of an orc with a sword in hand, took a few steps back, and sat down against a boulder. He looked at the orc army that was gradually gathering again in the distance, and said hatefully: "Why haven't the reinforcements come yet? If we continue like this, we will be finished sooner or later." An archer sat next to him, tearing off a piece of his coat and bandaging his finger that had been cut by drawing the bow too hard, and said, "Hmph, what else can I do, keep it." It's been half a day now, and reinforcements should be coming. Hold on for a while. With that, he picked up the longbow on one side, climbed a huge rock, and looked at the orcs in the distance.

Yes, they have been here for several hours, and even if they are all composed of professionals above the third order, they will not be able to deal with the nearly 10,000 orcs. Up to now, more than sixty people had died in the Dragon Divine Temple, and only one fifth-order, three fourth-order, and twenty third-order remained. But the orcs also suffered heavy losses. With an army of nearly 10,000 people killed or wounded, nearly 2,000 people have been killed, and the strength of the professionals of the Dragon Temple cannot be underestimated.

......

"Queue up!" The knights open the way, the warriors protect the archers and magicians, and the magic swordsmen are ready to rush into the canyon. Frank gave the order, and he turned on his horse and removed the riding gun from his horse. And behind him, the professionals of the Two Hundred Dragon Divine Temple had all mounted their horses, lined up in formation, and were ready to enter the canyon at any time.

"Blow the trumpet!" Frank swung his spear, and the first horse rushed into the canyon. The remaining two hundred professionals followed. The knights at the front grabbed their spears, and the warriors and swordsmen drew their steel swords at their waists.

The orcs below also discovered them, and immediately sent out nearly two thousand people to stop them.

At this moment, Frank, who was in the first place, shouted, "Release!" and immediately, the forty archers in the formation drew their feather arrows at the same time and threw them. In fact, archers are a kind of profession that cultivates both magic and martial arts. Not only did they practice bowing and hand-to-hand combat, but they also practiced magic. For example, some buff spells and support spells. As is the case now, they can use the Eagle Eye in magic to lock on to enemies. Each arrow pinpointed an orc warrior. In terms of secondary magic, it is possible to attach magic to arrows that are fired. And after reaching the fifth level and mastering the skill of "condensation", you can also use magic elements to directly condense into arrows to attack the enemy.

"Kill!" Finally, the two sides fought each other, and the orcs who rushed to the forefront were impaled by the spears in just one shot. The knights who rushed to the front were all strength above the fourth order, and Frank had even reached the fourth level of the sixth order. In the face of these ordinary orc soldiers, it is naturally like cutting melons and vegetables. The charge of the two hundred men was like a spear, the tip of which was pointed straight at the entrance of the canyon. The place near this "spear" is like a meat grinder, and the warriors and magic swordsmen with steel swords are constantly slashing the orcs who approach, while those behind are still holding their weapons and trying to get closer.

Under the fierce charge of these orcs, the casualties finally appeared, a warrior slashed an orc warrior with a sword, but he couldn't dodge, and was hit by a flying giant hammer, and the entire cuirass was smashed down, and he himself was knocked off his horse, and was instantly chopped into pulp by the orcs.

The two hundred Dragon Divine Temple professionals finally felt the pressure.

At this time, the magician in the center made a move. The branch master of the magic temple held a staff in his hand, and first released a meteor rain forward, sweeping away the nearby orcs, and then tore open a magic scroll, and a milky white light shield appeared, separating the orcs outside. This scroll Yun Xiao Yu knew that it was the Holy Guardian Enchantment that Yu Wuqing used when he rescued him. It's just that this one seems to have made some improvements. Not only is the range larger, but it also moves with use, enveloping the entire team of Dragon Temple professionals.

Under the magical attacks of the Holy Guardian Enchantment and the magicians, the pressure on the entire team suddenly became much lighter, and the speed of progress also accelerated. It's just that this Holy Guardian Enchantment is certainly strong, but the magic power consumed is also very large, so in just five minutes, the milky white light mask disappeared.

Five minutes is enough, though!

Frank suddenly felt that there was an empty space in front of him, and the surrounding orc warriors had withdrawn from this area, and in front of him, a team of more than thirty people was standing there, waving the dragon pattern flag exclusive to the Dragon Temple. It's here!

The group quickly dispersed, warriors and knights matched, supplemented by archers to cover, and the magic swordsmen roamed around, forming a circle of defense. Frank, on the other hand, took the magician to heal the thirty or so surviving professionals of the Dragon Temple.

A knight covered in blood, wearing tattered armor, and carrying a longsword with a curled blade, strode forward, beat his chest with his right hand and performed a knightly salute: "Lord Frank, Deputy Hall Master of the Knight Branch Hall of Rhea City, Colin reports to you!" Before he could finish speaking, his body went limp, and he fell to the ground.

Frank hurriedly helped him up, probed his snort, and breathed a sigh of relief. He only fell into a coma because of continuous high-intensity combat and serious injuries on his body, as long as the bleeding stopped, there was no danger to his life.

However, Colin was supported by his fifth-order strength and the knight's strong body, while the others were not so lucky. Archers need to reach Tier 5 to master the "Condensation" skill, and even the most arrows will be exhausted after a full hour of combat. And a bow without arrows is just an ornament. Therefore, these archers, who were not good at hand-to-hand combat, raised their swords and fought with orc warriors after their arrows were exhausted, and suffered heavy damage. Magicians are even worse, after all, the strength of magicians comes from magic. However, the intensity of the battle made it impossible for the mage to recover in time after running out of mana. A magician who has lost his magic is not even as good as an ordinary soldier. Therefore, except for a few strong ones, most of the mages died in the previous battles.

Therefore, among the professionals who survived, the warriors and knights fought in hand-to-hand combat, and the professionals who fought on the front line died even less.

Under the healing magic of the magician, except for two who died of serious injuries, the others have basically recovered their mobility, and some have even been able to recover their combat ability.
