The man shook his head:

"I'm limited in my ability now, I can only kill four, and I can't deal with the gnolls and kobolds in the back."

Chu Zaizhong gritted his teeth:

"Kill it first."

The mage nodded, didn't say anything, just lifted the staff in his hand and began to chant the words.

A little red light appeared in front of him, and quickly turned into a fiery vortex, and a blinding red beam of fire flew out of the vortex and shot at the nearest gnolla undead.

Heroic Spell - Blazing Ray, fires three high-temperature blazing rays in a row, dealing fire damage to the target, and the first blazing ray adds a spell penetration effect.

Normal Blazing Ray spells only emit one high-temperature flame ray, and this mage has also upgraded the second hero skill to LV2, plus two hero feats to strengthen it, it can fire three blazing rays at once, and the first additional spell penetrates, which can cause fatal damage to targets with strong spell resistance.

The first fiery ray fused a fist-sized hole directly into the neck of the gnolls' undead, and the second one completely fused through its neck, and its head fell off.

Kill on the spot.

Li Qing stood on the stone pillar and saw it clearly, and when the head of the jackal undead warrior fell, his eyelids couldn't help but jump.

It can only be said that when a mage hero goes to extremes and puts all the hero's skill points and specialty points on one spell, the explosion in a moment is too fierce.

According to the power of this spell, Li Qing suspected that even the fourth-order troops would not be able to withstand a blazing ray.

Four fiery rays in a row, and four gnolls undead warriors were slain.

Even the innocuous undead couldn't withstand this kind of attack that directly melted through the body.

At the end of the four shots, the mana was also exhausted, and this mage hero temporarily lost his combat effectiveness.

Of course, it's okay to cast some zero-ring spells such as light spells with the remaining mana, but this won't affect the outcome of the battle.

There are seven gnolls undead warriors in total, and after killing four, there are still three left,

But these three rushed over with the gnoll and kobold forces behind them, and they had to face the gnolls and the undead as well as the nearly two hundred gnolls and more than four hundred kobolds.

Almost instantly, the two unfolded troops collided head-on and tore apart.

The average rank of Chu Zaizhong's troops is not inferior to Li Qing, and there are also many second- and third-order troops, but he does not have so many elite and elite soldiers, and his strength is weaker than Li Qing's troops at the same level.

However, his number is large enough, about twice that of Li Qing, but it has smoothed out this gap.

In order to deal with these three third-order terror template gnolls and undead puppets, Chu Zaizhong directly mobilized about a quarter of his troops, slashing and stabbing arrows, although he could not be killed for a while, but the large number of people also blocked the attack of these three undead puppets.

On the other side, the infantry lined up in a row of shields, with the spearmen behind, and the archers last, firmly blocking the kobolds driven by the gnolls.

Although the kobold were numerous, their individual strength was weak, and the moment the two sides engaged, they saw that the front row was almost all planted backwards.

In addition to this, he had more than a dozen cavalrymen, and at this time he also began to gallop on horseback, and began to try to storm the enemy's rear row, and divide and destroy the small group of kobolds.

Chu Zaizhong stood in the back row and saw this scene, and his heart was settled.

"There is no problem on this side, as long as the other side can block Li Qing's counterattack, this wave can win."

He deliberately turned his head to glance at Li Qing on the walled wall, but he saw that Li Qing still had a smile in his eyes.

The heart that had just settled down was suddenly not so relieved.

At this moment, a roar suddenly sounded from the direction of the gate of the gnoll tribe in front of him, and then an extremely tall figure suddenly rushed out after seeing the gate.

"Huh?"

Li Qing was taken aback, he could see that the figure was the leader of the gnolls who had been shot by Xie Zhu's arrow before, but his appearance had changed greatly compared to before.

The height has swelled from about two meters to about two meters and a half, and his figure has become stronger.

The blood-colored demon pattern on his body had been completely activated, and the blood flame was burning, looking like a devil.

With just one glance, Li Qing knew that this guy's strength was much stronger than just now.

After this guy rushed out, he went on a rampage, and all the jackals and kobolds on the road were knocked away, and they rushed towards Chu Zaizhong's infantry line like a tank.

Chu Zaizhong's face immediately changed, and he shouted loudly:

"The first infantry squad is ready to fight!"

"All archers change targets, set fire to new targets!"

At this time, he already regretted letting his mage heroes use up their mana just now, otherwise he could still block it.

"You're going to lose!"

Just one glance at Li Qing can be determined.

Although Chu Zaizhong's troops are large, they have a fatal flaw, that is, they do not have powerful fighters comparable to Long Shou.

Wang Qiyong is a stalker hero who has no head-on combat ability.

His own melee combat ability is not weak, but the gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, and it is impossible to let the lord go to the front line until the rout.

The key is that his personal strength is comparable to that of a third-order elite infantry, and it is enough to fight a jackal undead warrior alone, and the strengthened third-order hero will definitely not be able to beat him.

And the fact is that it is simply impossible for him to personally go up and fight this powerful gnoll hero.

More than fifty archers gathered fire in one round, and most of them hit the rampaging gnoll leader Larsen, but at this moment his body was very strong, obviously stronger than before, most of the arrows were bounced away by the tough flesh, and the few shots that were shot into it were only a finger or two deep, and they could not hurt the root.

This inspired him even more fiercely, and with a loud roar, he knocked the kobold in front of him away, jumping seven or eight meters high.

Berserker Hero Skill, Jump Slash.

Jumping directly over the front line and jumping into the rear, a sword split an archer in half, the flying blood made him even more crazy, and he quickly turned his sword body after a roar in the sky.

Berserker Hero Skill: Frustrated Roar, reduces the fighting spirit and strength of nearby enemies.

Berserker Hero Skill: Whirlwind Slash.

Although there is only one sword, it is no different from two.

The blade of the sword turned and swept, where could the archer's leather armor block, and suddenly there was a burst of flesh and blood.

"Cool!"

At this moment, Chu Zaizhong's heartache is, and Li Qing, who is standing on the city wall and watching the play, is in a good mood.

"You want to attack me, you deserve it!"

A whirlwind swept through, and at least fifteen long-range shooters were killed on the spot, and more than ten were injured, although they were not dead, but their combat strength was affected.

After the whirlwind slashed, Larsson swept with his sword, and one of the wounded archers was intercepted and cut in two, and the brutal image frightened the wounded soldiers around him to retreat one after another, and the other uninjured archers quickly dispersed.

A berserker rushes into the herd of shooters, and that is the wolf into the flock.

At this moment, the weakness of not having a strong warrior in his hand was exposed, and Chu Zaizhong had no choice but to transfer the five third-order elite imperial infantry that he had carefully cultivated from the front row, and he couldn't be idle, so he followed with a shield in one hand and a sword in the other.

Seeing this, Li Qing whispered to Xie Zhu on the side:

"Look for the moment and snipe out that Stalker hero in his hands."

Then he said to Long Shou in front of him:

"Find an opportunity to go over and take a breath of dragon breath, the target is not only the other party's lord, you can do it yourself."

Li Qing said that if he wants to retaliate, he will definitely retaliate, Chu Zaizhong has already done the first year of junior high school, and he has already done a substantial job, so don't blame him for doing fifteen.

Don't say that you don't have no losses.

That's lucky, but if he gets blocked slowly, it's over.

Anyway, as long as you don't do it to Chu Zaizhong himself.

The protection of the academy only protects the War Lord apprentices themselves, not their subordinates, and no one will call the shots for you if they are killed due to lack of ability.

And for the War Lord Apprentice, as long as he doesn't die, he can make a comeback.

When the troops are gone, they can be retrained, and when the heroes die, they can be re-recruited.

It is worth mentioning that normal heroes are protected just like professional apprentices, but if heroes and pros are already loyal to a Warlord apprentice, they will not be protected.

After all, life and death have fate, and wealth is in the sky.

You have chosen to fight for the future, whether you live or die depends on whether your life is hard or not.

Long Shou still stood beside Li Qing after receiving the order, while Xie Zhu took out an armor-piercing steel arrow from his back and put it on the bow, but he did not pull it away, but observed.

There is no chance now.

The stalker hero under Chu Zaizhong's command has been in a semi-stealth state, and it is difficult to find and lock on under the cover of night, and from time to time suddenly appear behind the jackal man and strangle with a double dagger throat.

He's not fast, but he's very efficient, and he's sure to kill one every time he appears.

This kind of assassin-type hero is the nemesis of the French system and the ranged class, and even if Chu Zaizhong is defeated after not killing him, he has the strength to continue to interfere with them.

Li Qing is not in a hurry to urge, this kind of thing can't be done without a chance.

The combined efforts of the five third-order elite imperial infantrymen, coupled with Chu Zaizhong himself on the side, barely managed to attract the attention of the gnoll leader away from the archer.

The twin swords kept slashing, and the iron shield was slashed with a thud, and from time to time the infantry was repelled with great force.

But the two enemies are difficult to defeat the four hands, whenever they repel an infantry and want to make up the sword, there is always Chu Zaizhong and other infantry who come forward to interfere and intercept, and no one can help anyone for a while.

But that didn't last long, as the second round of frustration and rage of the Gnoll hero Larsen caused fear into the besieging infantry, and the sword was the second whirlwind slash.

The third-order infantry had iron shields, and the scale armor on their bodies was strong, and the whirlwind slash quickly slashed twice, only knocking the shield in their hands away, and the scale armor was blown with sparks.

By the time they recovered from their fear, only two elite infantry had been cut, and one had been slashed with a single blow.

Chu Zaizhong is fine, he has a hero template, and he is extremely resistant to negative states such as fear, and the Gnoll hero whirlwind slash avoids the blade early.

But many of the elite were wounded, and their siege was broken.

Seeing this scene, Chu Zaizhong's eyes flickered, and he was already thinking about whether to break his tail to survive.

After pulling a part of the troops, the main force withdrew first.

There is no way, he has only these third-order elite infantry in his hands, and the rest are first-order and second-order mixes, and he has not confronted the strength of this jackal hero head-on, and the loss of wanting to encircle and kill will exceed his expectations.

The key is not necessarily successful.

What's more, there is Li Qing on the side, if the loss is too great, even if he can win later, he will not be able to keep the fruits of victory.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that I couldn't draw it, and the scales in the center of Chu had already begun to tilt.

At this moment, he subconsciously looked at the afterglow of the city wall not far away, and saw a tall figure jumping down from the city wall and rushing towards him.

Chu Zaizhong was stunned for a moment, and immediately shouted:

"First Squadron, First Second Squad, be careful."

Ryumori quickly approached, and a swirl of flames appeared in the distance.

Chu Zaizhong immediately recalled Long Shou's previous flame breath during the big exam, his face immediately changed, and he shouted again:

"Disperse!"

However, Long Shou did not immediately spit out the dragon's breath, but continued to move closer, and when he reached a certain point, he suddenly turned his head, and a dazzling dragon's breath ray erupted in Chu Zaizhong's drastic expression.

"No!"

In Chu Zaizhong's desperate voice, the dragon breath ray instantly crossed a distance of fifty meters and passed between the scattered infantry, hitting the face of the mage hero wearing magic robes not far from Chu Zaizhong.

Unthinkable heat and flames shot into the face of the defenseless mage hero, and the ultra-high temperature quickly incinerated the flesh and blood, turning the entire head into a fireball.

A mage without defense is not as good as an infantry of the first order, where can he block a high-energy ray from the dragon guard.

A few seconds later, the dragon's breath ray disappeared, and the mage hero's head was still burning, his body shook a few steps, and he collapsed with a bang in Chu Zaizhong's desperate eyes.

Li Qing said to Long Shou before that he would let him choose his own target.

For Long Shou, the biggest threat to him is this mage hero.

The power of those four rounds and three consecutive flames was too powerful, and if he hit them all, he would definitely not be able to stop them.

The death of the mage hero made Chu Zaizhong directly make up his mind to retreat, and he endured the pain in his heart and quickly issued a series of orders.

After leaving more than fifty infantry to come to the palace, as well as to prevent Li Qing's possible pursuit, he ordered the remaining troops to prepare for the battle.

After a short buffer, Long Shou opened his mouth and took a sharp breath to start the second round of charging, and his eyes were on the second Stalker hero under Chu Zaizhong's command.

At this time, Wang Qiyong had already accepted the order to retreat from the rear of the jackal, although his body was still in a stealth state, Long Shouyuan's perception of ordinary people roughly captured his general position.

The second ray breath of the mouth was aimed at a clearing not far from Chu Zaizhong.

The blazing rays swept through the air, failing to hit the target, but the firelight dispelled the darkness around them, revealing a humanoid silhouette.

At the moment when he appeared, the ghost light in the void flashed, and an arrow crossed a distance of nearly one hundred and fifty meters to hit the humanoid silhouette, and the blood light soared, and the powerful force directly knocked the humanoid silhouette away, landing to the ground to appear humanoid, and a stainless steel arrow shot into his lower abdomen and came out through his back.

It was Xie Zhu's charged blow.

When Ryumori began the second round of breath charging, he began to draw his bow and charge up.

With the sniper's 100% range bonus, it can accurately snipe targets even at a distance of more than 150 meters.

There is no negotiation, only tacit understanding.

Seeing the moment Wang Qiyong was shot, Li Qing couldn't help but applaud.

Killing these two heroes, coupled with the loss just now, and the loss of the breakthrough later, Chu Zaizhong's strength was cut in half on the spot, and his competitiveness plummeted instantly, and it was estimated that he would fall outside the top ten at that time, and he had lost his threat.
