Chapter 160: Skeleton Legion, Counterattack

Woo woo –

The wind whipped up a layer of sand and dust.

Under the gloomy sky, in the endless desert, a battle is about to begin.

The moment the enemy is spotted, the entire army moves from a marching formation to a battle formation as quickly as possible.

Ji Chen looked at the large number of skeleton monsters that were galloping over, and his expression became unprecedentedly solemn.

This army of skeletons... The strength should not be underestimated.

The number of them is not very large, only about 50,000, but they are all "elite" existences.

There are no ordinary white skeletons that the skeleton clan has always used as cannon fodder, and the lowest level of them are all third-order black skeletons, with black skeletons and skeleton dogs as the main components, mixed with a large number of skeleton mages.

Not only that, Ji Chen also saw hundreds of skeleton monitor lizards that kept jumping out of the ground, and even thousands of skeleton knights that had never been seen before.

The turbulent but not chaotic offensive formation, there is obviously a skeleton hero in command behind this.

With such an elite composition and such a clear purpose, its origin is naturally about to come out.

It was sent by Skeletron to hunt them down.

Ji Chen didn't dare to be careless, so he chose a sand dune that was easy to defend and difficult to attack as the battle location, and set up a defensive line at the waist of Gao Qiu.

As the saying goes, hit the high, hit the low, hit the fool.

Hitting high and low not only maximizes your own firepower advantage, but also weakens the enemy's attacks.

On this kind of terrain, those skeleton knights who are obviously high-level skeletons, no matter how powerful they are, can hardly exert the most terrifying impact ability of cavalry.

Seeing this scene, the other party's skeleton hero was also aware of this, and did not choose to let the skeleton knight charge directly, but let the black skeleton attack first.

They made up an average number of more than twenty-five thousand in this skeleton legion.

This number instantly surrounded the entire sand dune in three layers and three layers outside, and none of them rushed up, and only some of them attacked.

About 5,000 black skeletons began to climb the dunes.

The defensive line was about seventy meters away from the bottom of the dunes, but the slope was thirty or forty degrees, and even the agile skeleton dogs could not move an inch on this terrain.

At this point, the soft sand became the best obstacle, and the skeletons struggled to crawl, their hollowed-out foot bones making it impossible for them to stand well, and the sand kept flowing out of the gaps.

At a glance, countless black skeletons were crawling with their heads buried, exposing their most fragile heads.

Seeing this scene, Ji Chen smiled slightly proudly.

The reason why he chose to defend in this dune is naturally because of this.

There was no time to delay at the moment, and the attack was immediately ordered.

At this distance, the Dragonblood Fishman and the Elemental Sea Elf's attacks can be fully exerted.

Tridents and water arrows poured directly into the Black Skull's skull, and such a deadly attack instantly reimbursed hundreds of Black Skulls, and the battle was remarkable.

However, the skeleton that fell into the gravel after death became a hard ground everywhere, which instead provided a place for the black skeletons behind them to avoid the gravel and climb faster.

The Black Skull is using its own life and body to pave a way forward for its allies.

Yaska watched her black skeleton being killed like a pig, without any sense of mentality, and a little dissatisfied.

For it, these black skeletons are no different from ordinary white skeletons, they are just cannon fire, but the black skeletons are slightly more advanced cannon fodder, which can consume a little more physical strength and mana of the enemy.

To its displeasure, the Black Skull was advancing too slowly.

So even if another 5,000 Black Skeletons were sent to attack, as long as they could defeat the enemy, it didn't matter if all the Black Skeletons died.

In the midst of such an onslaught.

At a distance of seventy meters from the bottom of the dunes, a large number of black skeletons were shattered, and a carpet of white bones was densely covered.

The Skeleton Legion lost a third of the Black Skeletons before they could rush to the front.

The Naga Berserker, who is in the front row, has already become a fourth-order class after evolution, and his strength has increased several times

Instead of needing several knives to deal with these Black Skeletons as before, you can now easily solve a single Black Skeleton with just one knife.

The Naga berserker, who was waiting for his work, had a red glint in his eyes, and the heads of the two black skeletons were cut off in an instant with his two blades crossed, and the heads of the extinguished soul fire rolled down with a grunt.

Orc warriors are also on the front lines, and they are not as easy as the Naga berserkers, but they also rely on the advantage of strength to quickly take out the enemy.

Ji Chen looked at the black skeletons around him who had rushed to the front of the formation and wrapped them tightly, but his face was very calm.

With these high-level cannon fodder alone, it is absolutely impossible to break through the defense line, and the only thing that needs to be paid attention to is those fourth-order skeleton monsters that are serious, as well as the hidden skeleton heroes.

That's the real threat.

Taking advantage of this moment, he looked at the panels of the skeleton knights.

【Skeleton Knight】

[Race]: Skeleton

[Rank]: 4th Order, 5 stars

...

Ji Chen's brows jumped suddenly.

Good guy, a fourth-order 5-star skeleton knight.

The power of the cavalry charging at full speed is not a joke, if these thousands of skeleton knights can charge, I am afraid that a single glance can collapse the defense line.

Fortunately, he was clever enough to occupy this steep sand dune in advance, and not just these skeleton knights could make them lose a lot.

Brother won't go down today, just be a nail on it!

As a mage, Yaskar's own defense is not excellent, so she naturally knows to hide herself.

At this time, it hides in the group of skeletons, secretly commanding the skeleton army.

I was also a little surprised.

It didn't expect that the strength of this army brought by humans would be so extraordinary, and it would be able to block the attack of the Black Skull so easily, and its evaluation of it would also improve a little.

In his heart, he secretly communicated with the other skeleton monsters.

The skeleton monitor lizard, which had been staying behind, received the order and burrowed into the ground to the bottom of the dune, directly crashing into the many black skeletons that stood in the way, and burrowing into the gravel again.

Seeing this scene, Ji Chen suddenly became vigilant.

He was worried about the skeleton monitor lizards that could attack from underground.

Skeleton monitor lizards may not be able to kill your own army, but if they break through the defenses with their size, giving other skeletons a chance to take advantage of them, then it will be a problem.

The skeleton giant burrowed into the gravel, dodging ranged attacks all the way, and suddenly jumped out in front of the defensive line, and the huge impact knocked the Naga berserker into the air at once, and dozens of gaps appeared,

Taking advantage of this opportunity, it was as if he was stuck in a quagmire in front of the defensive line, and he suddenly found a breakthrough, and hundreds of black skeletons squeezed into it along the gap.

Just as they bared their teeth and rushed to the weakly protected back row.

A chorus of singing sent them all to their seats.

Alice used the Song of Temptation just in time to keep the Black Skeletons and Skeletal Monitor Lizards in place.

Taking advantage of this respite, the Naga berserker who was knocked into the air immediately got up, slashed hard, and slowly pushed back with the back row, recasting the defensive line.

Yaska couldn't help but nod in satisfaction when he saw that the skeleton monitor lizard had successfully broken through the defense line and hundreds of black skeletons had attacked it.

But after hearing the song, its connection with those skeleton monitor lizards and black skeletons was disturbed and uncontrollable, and it immediately became suspicious.

Damn it! What happened!?

Could it be the singing? What kind of magical spell is the singing being able to interfere with my control of other skeletons?

Seeing the skeleton monitor lizard and the black skeleton that broke through the defense line being killed without resistance, and the enemy's defense line was repaired again, Yaskar would already have a gloomy face at this time if he had a face.

Although the offensive just now was dismantled, they still had a huge numerical advantage.

This human only relied on the terrain to stop them, and they never dared to come down and fight them head-on.

Therefore, as long as it is temporarily besieged, send troops to the nearby skeleton camp to find reinforcements and bring more skeletons.

Then as long as there are enough of them, the heap can also pile him to death!

Moreover, as long as the soul power of the skeleton clan is not damaged, it can attack forever, which is incomparable to flesh and blood.

As long as they can wait until the enemy is exhausted, then their chance will come!

Thinking of this, Yaska immediately sent the skeleton knights, told them to divide into several teams to go to several nearby skeleton camps to find reinforcements, and then sent more black skeletons to surround them, to ensure that the enemy would not escape until the reinforcements arrived.

On the top of the sand dunes, Ji Chen couldn't help but be stunned when he watched those skeleton knights suddenly break away from the team, gallop outside, and disappear into the horizon, thinking to himself why they left suddenly?

But when he saw a large number of black skeletons coming up from under the dunes, surrounding the sand dunes to the ground, he quickly figured it out and suddenly realized.

This is to move reinforcements!

I don't feel worried, but happy.

Without these skeleton knights, see how he smashes these skeleton monsters!

At the same time, Ji Chen also determined the general location of the skeleton hero.

He whispered to Darrow on one side.

"After launching a counter-attack, you will take the orc warriors to attack this piece of skeleton monsters, not to be able to completely break through, but to force out the enemy skeleton heroes hiding inside."

Hearing this, Darrow nodded very seriously, and Ji Chen then said to Anina: "After Darrow forces the enemy skeleton hero out, you will directly kill it." ”

"Leave it to me, I'll get the job done." Anina patted her chest, looking like a small thing.

"Alice, as soon as the enemy's remaining skeleton monitor lizards are dispatched, control them immediately."

"Alice understands."

"Rush Erba, you wait and take the dragonblood fish people and the elemental sea elves, and clear a clear path for them to wait for the sand dunes."

"Yes, great master."

Everything is ready to go.

Ji Chen waited for some more time, and after making sure that the skeleton knight would not return in a short time and had left a sufficient distance, he gave the order to counterattack.

In an instant, the army that had been on the defensive suddenly charged downward.

Tridents and water arrows smashed into the enemy group like rain, using dense attacks to clear a road tens of meters long and twenty or thirty meters wide.

Seeing this, Ji Chen shouted loudly without hesitation.

"All according to plan!"

"Little ones, give me !!"

"Ula!!"

The second shot was fired by Darrow and the orc warriors, who charged down the cleared passage towards a group of skeletons.

The giant axe in his hand rose and fell, smashing more than a dozen black skeletons and skeleton dogs in the way.

Behind them, thousands of orc warriors followed behind him like a macho man, and plunged deep into the group of skeletons like an awl.

Yaska, who was hiding among the skeleton monsters, almost jumped when she saw this.

His grandmother's, this human actually counterattacked!? How dare he?

But at this time, it was a little unconcerned about this problem, so these savage orcs coincidentally chose to attack it in the direction it was in.

Looking at the speed at which they are advancing, I'm afraid they will be able to kill it soon.

No, it needs to get out of here.

Yaska slowly swerved back, trying to retreat farther away.

But this move was discovered by Ji Chen, who had been paying attention here.

The reason is very simple, among all the skeletons that are crowded forward, suddenly one of them is not moving forward but retreating, which looks extremely conspicuous.

Ji Chen's eyes lit up instantly, "That skeleton monster holding a staff is the enemy skeleton hero!" ”

Hearing this, Anina, who had been hiding among the orcs, suddenly stretched out her head to take a look, and rushed over after determining the target.

When encountering a skeleton monster in its way, whether it is a black skeleton or a skeleton dog, a single sword will tear it apart, and it will advance faster than Darrow.

Hearing Ji Chen's words, Yasca suddenly felt bad.

Seeing Anina, who was more fierce than the orcs, rushing straight towards him, even the soul was almost frightened, and immediately let the remaining dozens of skeleton monitor lizards block it to buy it time to escape.

But it seems to underestimate the power of Anina's humanoid whale.

Seeing the four or five meter-long skeleton monitor lizards rushing towards her, Anina did not have a trace of fear in her heart, and with a sword in one hand, her fist suddenly hammered out.

Kela –

The hardest skull of the skeleton monitor lizard's body, centered on the landing point of the fist, shattered in all directions, scattering into fragments in the sky.

The power of a punch is terrifying!

After killing the skeletal monitor lizard, Anina did not stop for a moment and continued to pursue.

Everywhere he went, there was a storm of bones.

But the group of skeletons that reacted rushed up one after another as if they were not dying, blocking their progress with their bodies.

Irrepressibly, Anina's speed slowed down a bit, and Yaska fled even further.

Seeing this scene, Ji Chen decisively ordered.

"Elemental Sea Elf support, don't be stingy with mana, blow up the fuck for me!"

Hearing this, hundreds of elemental sea elves immediately turned their spearheads, and water arrows fell around Anina, blasting the blocking skeleton monsters to pieces.

With their immediate support, Anina's speed of progress increased again.

Looking at Yaskar, who was getting closer and closer, a cold glint appeared in his eyes.
