Chapter 29:
Xing Lian followed the method stated on the note and found a gorgeous rune sword from Cangyang's real room full of unknown instruments and alien creatures.
The gray-white sword body was engraved with ice-blue runes, and the eyes of the skeletal sheep's head gauntlet exuded a strange purple glow.
On the body of the sword, there is also a line of strange symbols engraved on the seal.
βMadeInChinaβγ
Xinglian rubbed his eyes, and the line of symbols disappeared into shape, replaced by the words "Frost Sorrow" written in the language of the dead.
"Whew, I thought I had bought a domestic product. β
The girl carefully wrapped her hand in a handkerchief before daring to take the sword.
The sword doesn't have any strange abilities such as devouring human flesh and soul when it touches it, just because the temperature of the sword body is nearly minus 100 degrees, and if it doesn't, Xinglian's hand will turn into frozen chicken feet.
"What was Cangyang thinking, he actually inserted the sword directly into the liquid nitrogen!"
Because the sword is made of superconducting materials, it can only be effectively charged at extremely low temperatures.
"That's too much nonsense, isn't it? It's not the age of electricity!"
Before Xinglian finished speaking, he saw the battery logo on the spine of the sword jumping full of ......
ββββββββββββ
Frost Sorrow Replica.
Weight: five pounds.
Damage: Considered a +5 longsword with Ice Burst and Nether traits.
A special effect that can transfer the undead creatures controlled by the holder to the name of Frost Sorrow, and the maximum controllable undead creatures can be controlled.
Selling price......
"Only sell nine hundred and ninety-eight! Nine hundred and ninety-eight! Frost Sorrow takes home!"
Xinglian kicked the crystal ball of the advertisement out of the window.
Walking out of the real yΓ n room, the stars are about to move until eight o'clock.
Xinglian touched the back mountain alone, and at first glance saw the back road that the eldest sister said.
It is a large underground building that integrates a shopping city, a subway, a food street, and a neon night scene. You can see something like that in the center of some of the big, mega cities.
β......β
Starripple threw the wire door on the back road leading to the underground. Venture deeper into the forest. It didn't take long for me to see a shadow.
It was a myriad of undead clad in stubbornness.
"Don't even let go of the dead, Cangyang is worthy of being black. β
As he spoke, Xinglian walked forward with his sword raised, and several skeletons saw the creature coming, and their heads in rusted helmets turned to Xinglian.
Xing Lian, who was holding the chicken feather arrow, poked the skeletons: "You guys, I order you in the name of the regimental branch to assemble the whole army!"
The skeletons looked at each other. They looked at each other, and they didn't know what was roaring between their jagged teeth, and after talking for a while, one of the skeletons roared in the sky, and countless undead in the night ran out and lined up in front of the starry ripples.
"Ten hundred thousand...... I don't know how many of them, but there are at least a thousand or more anyway, which is enough for us to consume. All the army, follow me!"
In ten minutes, the portal will open. The soldiers of Cangyue were lined up in a neat formation.
The heavy infantry lined up in a row in front, and the crossbowmen lined up in three rows in the back. The half-dragons stayed on the flanks as a reserve, and Xinglian didn't explain anything else, so the whole army was waiting to die in front of the portal, ah no, standby.
The heavy infantry are all brute warriors from the beast tribe and the barbarian tribe, each of them has experienced a hundred battles, so naturally there is nothing to be afraid of, but the crossbowmen in the back are all low-level soldiers who have just been upgraded from coolies to archers, if it weren't for the half-dragons of the part-time warlord team staring behind, maybe they would have escaped.
What are you kidding, even if the slaves are sent to war, they will at most participate in skirmishes between the estates, and the kind of wars between petty nobles involving hundreds of people at most will only have a few minor bruises in a day.
Now the other party is a supernatural creature.,The kind of otherworldly demon.,Isn't this kind of work for the legendary protagonist to do?
The crossbowmen were anxious to check the heavy crossbow in their hands, whether the winch was still sharp, whether the bowstring was tight, and whether the arrow was stuck.
Cold sweat oozed from the palms of his hands, making the crossbow a little slippery, almost unable to hold on.
The coercion from the different planes came out of the portal wave after wave, making them can't help but want to turn around and run away, but the half-dragons behind them calmly carried the giant sword and chatted and fart, and when they were happy, Moonfall took out a silver wine box from his pocket and poured it several times.
The heavy infantry in the front row were under no less pressure than the crossbowmen, but they only increased their breathing and began to mobilize the furious blood in their bodies, and the twenty men in the array inhaled and exhaled in a rhythm, and the giant axes and spears were raised, forming a sparse but neat steel barrier in front.
Just as the crossbowmen were about to collapse, Starripple appeared.
He was carried out of the back mountain by four skeletons on a sedan chair.
Behind Xing Lian, countless skeletons held a variety of weapons and lined up in a four-way column.
Xinglian took a sip of the straw, drained most of the carbonated drink in the glass, then hugged the crystal ball to his knees, pulled out an optical mouse from under his buttocks, and plugged it into the USB port of the crystal ball.
Gently drawing a frame, framing all the skeletons behind him, Star Ripple sketched the route of the march on the virtual window, so that it could enter the position in three minutes.
"En, the crystal ball belongs to Dell, and I originally wanted to buy Sony, but Sony is not resistant to falling. β
The skeleton soldiers spread out in front of the position, protecting the 100 people behind them, and the skeleton soldiers who spread out in a fan shape moved in unison, in stark contrast to the rookies behind them.
In the first five rows, there are spearmen, skeletons holding extended spears arranged in a dense formation of five rows, each row of skeleton soldiers with spears on the shoulders of the front row, and a war hedgehog wrapped in steel shows a hideous stinger on the plain.
The infantry on the flanks were also ready, and the skeletons with heavy bone shields holding short swords in the other hand formed a shield formation with their companions on both sides, and no matter how powerful the impact army was, it was impossible to break through such a three-row shield formation.
Then there is the longbow team in the rear, although they can't compare with the longbowmen of the original Moon Temple, but they have an absolute advantage in numbers. More than five hundred skeleton archers are armed with enchanted longbows. Looks like it's okay to ignore the damage output of your own crossbowmen.
Starripple adjusted the cushion behind him. Lying down in a more comfortable position, a skeleton walked over with its head on a fruit platter under her command, and Xinglian raised his hand to carry a cherry, stuffed it into his small mouth and chewed it.
"Let the cavalry team be ready in the back, and all the siege spears will be reloaded...... Eminem, another lychee. β
The undead knights, clad in heavy black armor, were also ready behind the flanks, throwing away the slender spears they were holding. It was replaced with a three-edged rifle with a length of seven meters and a thickness of thighs.
The Nightmare of Hellfire under his crotch snorted with sparks and kicked his hooves restlessly.
"Success or failure is here, if the old lady who opens such a big plug-in is still defeated, I will be sorry for the name of 'Goddess of Western Sea War'!"
The portal finally opened, and the flames burned a large part of the grass at the entrance.
Behind the door, a group of humanoids stepped out, their average height was only about one meter and a half, and their skinny limbs were covered with a layer of red rough skin, and they held crude weapons of stone and bone in their hands.
Xinglian shook his head, shaking his head out of the dark history of the Moon Temple. This summer, his employer was ruthlessly repaired by the Moon Elves with advanced weapons because of their outdated equipment, and he was captured at that time......
"If you fall behind, you will be beaten. In order to appease Miss Ben's anger, you all go to death!"
Xinglian, who gnawed the whole durian to a creaking sound, was about to go berserk, and the thorny shell of the durian was bitten into countless pieces by Xinglian's little tiger teeth.
ββββββββββββ"Lava Monsters, small otherworldly creatures, have a rudimentary civilization, mostly from the sixty-fifth layer of the Abyss, but also in other fire elemental dominant planes. This group is the genuine version of the sixty-fifth layer, and it is born with strong flame resistance. β
"But these things are said to be intelligent creatures, but the level of civilization is still in the Stone Age, and the language is also a simple abyss lingua franca. Although the Flame Bloodline provides a powerful fire resistance, in the face of ice damage, the scorching blood in the body will only cause them more damage. β
"All in all, miscellaneous soldiers. β
"The only problem is...... There are really too many of them......"
The number of visual inspections was at least 10,000 or more, and those little monsters were in front of the portal, standing loosely in a group, and several officers riding red big cats came to the front of the formation, and said a few words in the hoarse abyss lingua franca, and the whole army roared together, shouting and killing to the sky, and 10,000 weapons were lifted into the sky.
Xinglian picked a crimson cherry and threw it into his mouth, letting the blood-like juice spill between his lips and teeth.
"Spearmen prepare. β
The rune sword in Tong GuΓ²'s hand, the order was enlarged a thousand times and spread to the entire team.
The pikemen in the front row grasped the handle of their guns and pushed them forward, and the steel storm formed by the spear heads spread forward for nearly half a meter.
"Archers prepare. β
The skeleton archers in the back drew their arrows and rested their arrows on the bowstrings, which were pulled apart with a burst of creaks, pointing at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle.
Starripple's Psychic Mind could observe the positions of the Lava Monsters in the distance so closely that they could even see their sharp-beaked monkey cheeks. The monsters had rough weapons such as bone spears and stone axes in their hands, and the lines were very scattered, the spearmen and swords were scattered together, the shields were not uniformly equipped, and the best armor on their bodies was only rudimentary leather armor.
The leader of the lava monster roared, and the leader of the riding beast that resembled a big cat charged with all the monsters.
"Whole army, prepare!"
The skeletons' bodies erupted in a circle of blue light, and the tips of the spears reflected the blue light of the undead army, connecting into a dead thorn bush on one side.
The wind blew from the opposite side, overpowering the waist-high dead grass, and the lava monsters rushed towards the middle of the moon with a scattered line, and the dark red tide was about to drown the fragile thorn bush, and just as the two sides were about to collide, the officer on the back of the war beast took the reins, and the beast soared into the air, leaping over the undefended spear formation, in a vain attempt to open a gap.
The first three rows of spears remained forward, while the last two rows of spears were raised to the sky, and the dense heads of spears met the officer, and with a pop, he was pierced along with his own horseman.
Like a piece of roast meat with a toothpick stuck in it, the corpses of the horsemen and officers were pierced by countless spears and then thrown far away.
But because this area is missing two rows of spears. Under the subsequent onslaught. There were quite a few lava monsters that pierced through the spear's blockade. Directly face to face with the skeletons.
With a wave of his hand, the skeleton spearmen in that area retreated, and the longbow team covered the gap with saturated firepower, and five hundred arrows instantly swept a death void in the gap.
The Lava Monsters had no adequate means of defense, and the only shields and armor they had were rudimentary Stone Age works, making them ineffective against the skeletons' arrows.
Before the lava monsters could react, the crossbowmen fired a volley, unlike the longbow. The heavy crossbow that Wang Ming bought with his blood can penetrate even if it is plate armor, not to mention those simple leather armor, the armor-piercing arrows that he also bought with blood can completely penetrate one and two, and the forward of the cone charge formation of the lava monster was destroyed, and a salvo wiped out all the edges.
However, it is impossible for the monsters to be repelled because of this, the war in the era of cold weapons determines that it is impossible for a charge to put all the troops into battle, and there are only more than two thousand monsters involved in that charge, and the main force is still nesting behind, and the monsters who rushed through once have retreated, until they retreat to the opponent's main formation. Then the uninjured ones regrouped in the rear of the large army.
The second echelon replaced the previous one, and the number was also around 2,000 people. It seems that the opposite is preparing to use wheel warfare to slowly wear down the spear defense.
In the previous charge, the damage to the skeleton was not large, but the damage of the spear was quite a lot, and the spear often broke in the impact, so if the opponent was really ready to use the number of people, it would really be polished alive.
Starripple certainly wouldn't let that happen, she swiped twice on the crystal ball, and the skeleton cavalry that had been on standby began to move from the rear to both flanks, while the infantry retreated to the rear of the pike.
The second wave of charges came quickly, and the monsters began to charge two hundred meters away, and the rain of arrows that came from the projectile did not have an obvious effect on the monsters who charged in the straggler line, and the spear array quickly came into contact with the monsters, and the stabbing of the five rows of spears did cause a lot of losses to the monsters, but under the impact of the other party's minus, the front line was still torn open a gap.
How could the monsters let go of that loophole, they concentrated almost all their superior forces and began to attack the gap, and the only spears were also concentrated, and began to suppress the spearmen at that gap.
The skeletons' bodies are made of bones, and the hard bones don't buy slashing and piercing damage, but the stone axes equipped by the monsters can smash the skeletons to pieces, and the gap is rapidly widened by the stone axes and meteor hammers.
The infantry who had already moved to the rear of the spear formation immediately plugged the gap, and the undead did not have fear, and the unconscious skeletons raised their heavy rusted long knives in their hands, slashing at the monster's impact formation.
The battle situation in the front row was extremely tragic, under the swing of the long knife, the unprotected monsters suffered heavy losses, the stumps and broken arms were all over the ground, and many of the disemboweled, not yet dead, crawling all over the ground while screaming.
Xinglian saw a demon with its internal organs flowing all over the ground crying and trying to stuff the large intestine back into its stomach, but it was quickly overwhelmed by the crowd, trampling back and forth, the internal organs were broken, and the body was also trampled by hooves and bone claws turned into a puddle of minced meat.
"It's race warfare, and there's no way around it. β
Dispelling the boring goodness from her mind, the former goddess of the Western Sea War raised the ice sword in her hand, and the cavalry team that had just flanked and was ready immediately charged at full speed, aiming at the flanks of the monsters.
The cavalry lances were all put down, and the undead cavalry lined up in a conical formation poked into the left and right flanks of the monsters like two awls, and the undead cavalry wrapped in the white bone full-body plate armor set off a storm of flesh and blood on the two wings of the monster army, and after the heavy cavalry spears destroyed the fragile defense temporarily constructed on the flanks of Miè, the cavalry had already rushed into the depth of the monster formation.
The heavy cavalry spear is difficult to use at this distance, if it is a short spear, it can still deal with it, but the extra-long heavy cavalry spear is difficult to wield in the dense enemy formation, the heavy cavalry did not hesitate to throw away the cavalry spear, pull out the two-handed giant scythe hanging to the side, and slash with the momentum of the war horse, quickly harvesting the lives of the monsters.
These heavy cavalry were clearly proficient in combat skills, and each time they cut down, they would attack the approaching target in an instant, giving the enemy no time to react at all.
It is not uncommon to have a combat skill called homeopathic slashing, generally speaking, as long as you are willing to work hard and have a little talent, a soldier with a rank can learn it, but that is for adventurers, it is difficult for ordinary people to learn this kind of combat skill, and the general regular army only has the rank of a warrior at the captain level, so an army full of ranks can only be done by those big countries, and the size of the army must be very small. Because the cost of raising a rank is much higher than raising a soldier.
Like this undead cavalry, each army is skilled in a variety of combat skills. In this world there is. But definitely not much.
"Where did Cangyang get these things, it's already the top elite of the general country!"
The weak flanks were quickly penetrated, and the cavalry penetrated from the two flanks to the rear of the monster charging echelon, and the cavalry who slashed all the way from the left and right flanks were covered in blood, reunited, and without a moment's pause, they turned back and attacked the monsters from the rear of the echelon.
After all, they are just undead and do not need to rest. No fear, no hesitation, only cold thoughts......
On the frontal battlefield, the pikes began to squeeze the monsters forward, and under the attack from both sides, with the dense rain of arrows falling from the sky, these monsters began to collapse, and the battlefield fell into a one-sided massacre.
"Bloodband, forward, Dragon's Tooth Squad. Copy it from the flanks. β
ββββββββββββ
Five minutes later.
The Bloodstained War Band held the blood-stained battle axe, holding the line that had been broken through again and again.
That notch was deliberately placed by Starripple. In order to reduce the pressure on the pikemen, the impact is directed to the Bloodtrampling and Skeleton Infantry.
The half-dragons had already rushed into the depths of the battlefield with their giant swords, forming a circular iron bucket formation near the gap to stop the monsters' attacks.
The pikes were now lined up in a concave arc, with a rift in the middle leading to the Bloodtrampling and Skeleton Infantry in the rear, directing a steady stream of demons to the pocket formations in the rear like a funnel, and the formation of the inner line made the spears denser, making the rest of the line unusually strong.
But this also causes the pressure on the notch to be very heavy.
Therefore, Xinglian quickly put the half-dragons outside the gap and cushioned the impact formation.
Just now, the portal suddenly burst, and a steady stream of monsters erupted from it, and thousands of red figures filled the entire field of vision, and the number made everyone despair.
Starripple immediately decided to let the cavalry launch a suicidal charge in exchange for time to rearrange and reorganize the array, which is why he has persevered until now.
Although it had only been less than a minute since the lava monsters' large forces had officially attacked, the pressure on the defense was already outrageous.
Someone fell on both sides every minute and every second, but the fallen Knights of the Blue Moon were basically undead, and the stars were so distressed that they were not very distressed.
At this moment, the former goddess of war activated the spiritual energy that was constantly surging in her heart, and the [Inert Armor] was activated in an instant, and the crystal-transparent and illusory psionic weapons converged and formed in her hands, leaping into the most incandescent battlefield.
As a senior psychic magician, the speed at which Xinglian displayed first-order spiritual energy was already so fast that it was impossible to see clearly, and at the same time as swinging the knife, a [secondary creation technique] was cast, and the spiritual energy disappeared in the void, turning into concussive fluctuations and transmitting to the distant astral boundary, and the chaotic undivided astral oil was shaped into transparent spikes by the shock, and appeared next to Xinglian a second later.
At this time, she had already flown above the monsters under the effect of the jumping technique.
Countless crystal spikes fell from the sky like a deadly storm, and the monsters were no stronger than the fragile wheat straw in the face of the storm, and quickly lay down on the ground, and more than a dozen monsters huddled together were pierced through their bodies, and the star ripples stepped on the upper edge of the huge spikes, and jumped up again.
Star Ripple directed a stream of psionic energy to shuttle through his body, searching for the ticking biological clock in his body, and then silently accelerated the gears of the clock, causing it to overspeed at a faster speed.
First-Order Psionic Energy [Haste].
Under the effect of the fastened biological clock, Xinglian's nervous reaction speed was almost halved, and the global vision and combat vision were exerted on him, and then the high-speed biological clock slowed down the hurried pace, and the slow-moving world in Xinglian's eyes also returned to its original state.
"I thought that after being comfortable for so long, I would forget how to hold a weapon!"
Feeling the blood of the goddess of war gradually reviving in her body, the giant meteor hammer in Starripple's hand danced back and forth, sweeping away all the enemies in front of her.
The so-called meteor hammer is actually a divination crystal ball that is tightly grasped by telepathic control, and the crystal ball becomes very strong under the action of the spiritual energy of [Spiritual Weapon], and each blow will have a spiritual energy shock attached to the blunt damage.
"I just like to use blunt weapons...... Why?Maybe it's because I love stewed chicken~. β
The forgetful Starripple was immersed in the joy of killing, and he didn't know what was babbling nonsense in his mouth.
Feather Phoenix took off from a small mountain bag and tore apart the dozen or so Ice Storm Scrolls in his hand one by one, and in an instant, a huge blank belt was cleared out of the middle of the monster, but Feather Phoenix was powerless, and after exhausting the scrolls, Feather Phoenix could only use secondary ice balls to provide fire support.
Xing Liantong GuΓ² Mind Link, and said casually: "Little Huang, the eldest sister said, if you are a mage, and the number of kills is not even comparable to me, then when you come back, I will [beep] and then [beep]." β
Yu Huang's heart was shocked, and he quickly cheered up, put his hand into his towering chest, and throbbed hard, taking out a huge spell book.
Then her chest regained its former flatness.
The surface of the book is decorated with ornate patterns, and the cover made of Mithril is imbued with surging magic.
The Book of Ten Thousand Laws
"It's good that Scarlet Moon sent me this thing a few days ago, otherwise how could I ...... with conventional spells"
"Well, let me research, which spell is more suitable?"
"Blood vine spell causes the recipient to burst out of thorny vines, pierce his body and wrap around his hands and feet, not only causing damage, but also keeping him in an entangled state until the recipient breaks free. β
"But this spell is a druid's ......"
"Bloody rage, let a creature with berserk ability enter the berserk, this rage will not consume the recipient's physical energy, and will not affect the number of rages he brings. β
"But this spell is also a druid's ......"
"The Body of Doom emits heat and flames from its own body, and the stronger the caster, the more powerful the flames released. β
"But this spell is also a druid's ......"
Feather Phoenix made up her mind that if the next spell was still a druid's, she would switch to become a druid.
"Nima's, isn't the number of mages as good as the druids?"
"Ah, this spell seems to be very interesting!"
Feather Phoenix danced and shot a small gray-black flame from his fingertips, burrowing into a monster's heart, and then the unlucky ghost crashed into the moonset, the leader of the dragon tooth team can be said to be the strongest melee professional on the field, and the giant sword slashed the unlucky ghost away with a flick of the giant sword.
The corpse that had been split in half burst in the air, and flames erupted from it, the same flames that Feather Phoenix had placed in his body, spreading in all directions whenever the target died.
However, this spell is not only limited by the caster's ability, but also by the recipient's body, under the fact that the feather phoenix is unlearned and the monsters are just miscellaneous soldiers, the spread of the flames cannot even burn through the flame resistance of those monsters.
"It's okay, it's just a test of the spell's performance!
A pitch-black feathered arrow shot out of the palm of the feathered phoenix's hand and stabbed into the arm of the other monster, and the feather arrow rolled into two black streamers, rotating around it, constantly devouring the monster's life force.
Moreover, although the monster was terrified, it did not move, and it was not long before it was trampled to the ground by enemies and allies.
"Wow, it comes with a deterrent attribute! Try this again......"
"In the name of Newton Isaac, Isaac Ultimate Missile Storm!"
As soon as the words fell, a huge magic array appeared at the feet of the feather phoenix, who had violated the first law of magicians, and countless complicated lines meandered on the magic circle, and then, a thousand missiles appeared above the thousand runes, and the dense missiles like rain roared and crashed into the battlefield in the distance.
This spell may be the favorite of the Grim Reaper.
