Chapter 121: Guerrilla Warfare
The young mercenary leader didn't know what happened in the hall after the breakaway, so he decided to attack the skeletons with the whole group.
Caterina and a group of people were watching the fierce battle of the professionals above the third and fourth orders in the venue before, and their excitement had been suppressed for a long time, and they were all in good spirits when they heard the decision of the regiment leader.
"I'll continue to guard here," Eric took the initiative to say, he knew that the current form, with his first-order strength, would not be of much help, it was better to continue to stay behind to ensure everyone's retreat.
"Okay," Leon nodded at him and said, "Let's go." â
The group left Kaka's house, and the target was directly to the southeast corner of the administrative district, where the blade was located, and since it was decided to support depending on the situation, of course, it was necessary to choose the force that could bring the most benefits in the end.
Blade belongs to the Kingdom of Sver, and it is not the target of the undead army, so it may be more beneficial to make a good impression on the trip after returning home.
The streets along the way are deserted, and the lower city seems to have become a no-man's land, but after a few moments, you can see several human corpses and the scattered bones of the undead soldiers, indicating that there were a lot of skirmishes here when the undead soldiers first entered, and it is estimated that the number of undead soldiers was finally seen, and the residents of the lower city hid separately.
Soon, they came across the first group of enemies, and Leon "saw" them from a house - about twenty ordinary skeleton soldiers, as well as two skeleton warriors and a four-limbed ghoul he had ever seen.
Presumably this is the skeleton team in charge of patrolling and guarding, Leon stopped and told what he had discovered.
Caterina said: "This is a very common minimum formation in the undead army, the lich controls the ghouls, and the ghouls control the soldiers summoned, and the ghouls must be dealt with first, otherwise it will be very troublesome for it to pass the information to the lich." â
Leon, who had had such an experience, agreed with this remark, "The mentor is responsible for killing the ghouls quickly, I am in charge of the two skeleton warriors, and the others are responsible for dealing with the skeleton soldiers, and do their best to solve the battle!"
With that, he rushed around the house and towards the enemy.
Almost instantly, Leon was in front of a skeleton warrior at the front, and the impact of the "charge" raised a puff of dust, and then he slashed at the enemy with a sword.
With a "bell", the Skeleton Warrior hastily raised his sword to block the sudden attack, but the ensuing force made it jerk back, and there was a "creaking" grinding sound between the arm bones.
Immediately after that, Li Ang's second sword came again, slashing at the same position of the opponent's weapon, this time cutting off the opponent's long sword, and the third time he launched the combat skill "Heavy Blow", smashing the right half of the sternum of the skeleton warrior from top to bottom.
Leon dodged the palm of his hand, crossed his two-handed sword and struck another blow to forcibly pierce the opponent's neck bone, and the head of the skeleton warrior rolled down at his feet, and he trampled it to pieces.
"So weak?" he wondered, and then ducked to dodge the sword swung by another skeleton warrior who had just reacted.
Since he came to this conclusion, he honestly and unceremoniously attacked repeatedly, slashing the enemy left and right and unable to even stand steadily, and when he took out the sword for the fourth time, he directly cut off the skeleton warrior's waist, and by the way, he inserted a sword in the middle of the opponent's head.
"So weak!" "The target of Leon was the skeleton warriors summoned by President Duru at the beginning, but those second-level troops had the strength to hold on to him with strength alone, why were these two three-down-five-dividing two?
This question only existed in ZĂ i's mind for a moment, and he immediately understood how terrifying the high-level lich's bonus to summoned creatures was, and at the same time, he was glad that he was able to come up with a plan in time to impress the president of the Eternal Society.
With a total of 4,000 experience to start with, and at the same time one more experience hint, he turned his gaze and saw Kaka standing aside with his hands behind his back, watching Katarina and their battle as if nothing had happened, and at his feet was a ghoul who had broken his hands and feet and was motionless.
"Is this pose trying to show off your superiority?" Leon couldn't help but mutter.
At this time, the other members of the mercenary group also inflicted a lot of damage on these low-level skeleton soldiers, especially Caterina alone almost half of them, and Melissa's sharp attacks also killed at least six or seven.
The rest, of course, was arranged by Jeff, and after so many battles, the strength of the man with mixed hair began to improve.
It's just that Sophia is a little strange, Kaka said that her potential is very good, and it is said that she should have reached the edge of the second order a long time ago, but there is still no sign of promotion, which makes Leon feel very puzzled.
After completely destroying the enemy in just a few tens of seconds, the mercenary group immediately left the scene under the leadership of Li Ang and marched towards another street.
Then he encountered several more teams, all of which were tacitly handled by everyone, and then stopped at the end of a certain street, and he found another team of considerable size at the corner in front of him.
One lich, two ghouls, two elite skeletons, ten warriors, and nearly eighty ordinary skeleton soldiers.
Leon was sure that they were the main vigilant force responsible for several roads in this block, and it was probably the lich who was aware of the disappearance of several squads, so he personally brought his subordinates over to inspect them.
As soon as he raised his hand, he led his group to hide in a dark alley next to him, and then explained the number of enemies.
Caterina judged that this should be an informal squad formation in the undead army, with a third-order junior lich as the captain, plus a small number of third-level troops, and the ghoul was only a combat commander of the low-level undead soldiers, and the actual combat effectiveness was not high.
"To fight?" Kaka said with a wink in his eyes, "I can deal with lich and elite skeletons." â
Leon thought for a moment, then said, "Go around." â
He now has a rough understanding of Kaka's combat power, this alchemist himself has the combat ability equivalent to the third order, but the various powerful effects of the alchemy potion in the battle can completely compete with the fourth-order professional, but if it is not worth consuming a part of the alchemy potion just to destroy the lich and elite skeletons in front of him.
Moreover, there are too many of these enemies, although they can be dealt with with the current strength of the mercenary group, but it will take at least some time, and once a new enemy appears, it will be dangerous.
So he "endured the pain" and gave up a large amount of experience points that had come to his mouth, and quietly left with the members of the group, in such a dark alley and crisscrossed by streets, Li Ang, who has a battlefield map, can be said to be like a fish in water, and can always find the enemy's storage in advance at a critical moment, so as to bypass it first.
"Boy, it's a waste for you not to be a priest or those mysterious professions!" the alchemist commented upon Li Ang's unusually keen perception.
After a few minutes of circumambulation in the lower city, and the elimination of two small squads, Leon called up the attribute panel, and found that the experience was enough to upgrade, he judged the current form, and decided to give up on promoting the second class for the time being.
Now the time to summon the Heroic Soul is ten minutes, and if you forcibly upgrade the rank, it will be three minutes, which is roughly enough, and even if you increase the level of a few mages, it is estimated that the additional time is a drop in the bucket for now, so Leon upgraded the warrior to level 10.
This upgrade adds 0.5 strength again, so that the Warrior's primary stat reaches 19.
"Only by upgrading two levels can you add a little attribute ......" Li Ang felt a little pity, and he didn't know when this unreliable attribute increase method could increase willpower from 17 to 18, and he was still waiting to see if there would be a second bloodline talent.
But this way of brushing up experience is really cool! Li Ang led everyone around with great interest, and suddenly heard a faint shout of killing.
He didn't dare to get too close, and when he reached a place where he could clearly hear it, he found the tallest building and said, "Melissa, go up and see what is going on." â
Receiving the "personal instructions" of the young regimental commander, Melissa immediately ran to the edge of the building, jumped up like a cat with her hands on the edge of the windowsill, and then quickly climbed to the top with her hands and feet.
A few minutes later, Melissa reappeared in front of Leon with a look of excitement on her little face and said, "It's blue, it's very, it's beautiful!"
Li Ang was speechless, it seems that this girl has been with Sophia for too long and has been contaminated with the "trait" of not being able to distinguish the situation, it seems that the idea of letting her be responsible for investigating the enemy situation in the future is a bit of a long way to go.
So the young regiment commander himself went into battle, although the building was five stories high, but with his current agility, he could handle it, but his posture was far worse than Melissa's.
When he came to the roof and squatted on the chimney, he realized that although Melissa's words were somewhat "embellished", they were true.
He now knew that it should be the headquarters of the Black Hand Brotherhood not far away, but at the moment most of it was in ruins, only a small building in the center still existed, but it was surrounded by undead soldiers, like a lonely boat in the blue sea, in danger of toppling at any time.
From this direction, it was clear that the ground around the ruins was almost covered with skeletons, many of which were tall elite skeletons, and it seemed that the undead's attack was met with stubborn resistance. However, the skeleton soldiers are only diverted by the will of the lich, and they have no negative feelings such as fear at all, so they still desperately attack the final target.
The door of the small building was wide open, and there was no one to defend it, but the soldiers who rushed in were like stones sinking into the sea, and there was no sound anymore.
Before a lich floated to the small building, he raised his hands and seemed to start chanting some kind of secret method, causing a hurricane around the small building, but then his body suddenly shook, and the hurricane that had just condensed immediately dissipated.
Two assassins appeared behind the lich, one tall and one short, cooperating with each other to launch a sharp attack on the lich, and several elite skeletons arrived but were blocked by two identical figures conjured up by the tall man, which should be similar to the "fool" combat skills that Leon once faced.
But more and more enemies have gathered, and the two assassins have fallen into an endless siege before they can fatally damage the lich, even if the most of the surrounding are the first and second level troops, but a large number will produce a qualitative change, so they soon had to give up their original purpose and use their combat skills to escape back to Xiaolou.
Seeing this, Leon climbed down the chimney with his hands and feet, and was a little concerned about the number of undead troops.
