Chapter 609: Shadow Duel Arena

Anything of its weight and volume can be extraordinarily lethal, and the Bone Bomb is no exception.

All monsters that are unfortunate enough to be at its landing point, whether they are goblins, goblins, or large trolls, without exception, will be directly knocked to the ground with a flick of the hammer, and even if they do not turn into meat puree on the spot, they also become meat patties, and most of them die on the spot.

That's not all, these bone shells are not solid, they are wrapped in extremely compressed negative energy, and when subjected to a violent impact, these negative energy will lose its original stability and explode, enveloping those bone fragments, sweeping all living beings within a radius of ten meters.

Even bones, driven by strong kinetic energy, will become an out-and-out killing weapon, easily tearing their skin, flesh and blood, and nailing them deep into their bodies, accompanied by negative energy erosion, those scratched by bone fragments, nailed in the position, festered at a speed visible to the naked eye, and spread to the surroundings.

If it is only a limb, it may be possible to survive if it is cut off quickly.

But if the injured part is the body, neck, skull and other vital points, then there is basically no help, and the negative energy will directly hurt their internal organs.

For flesh and blood, highly condensed negative energy is the most powerful poison, with great medicinal properties and a short onset time, unless it is those undead who are purely composed of negative energy, only healing and not killing.

The area damage of the Bone Cannonball, both in terms of power and enveloping radius, is far superior to the fireball spell performed by a transcendent mage.

What is the concept of a radius of ten meters?

A full three hundred and fourteen square meters, even if there is a distance of two or three meters between people, it can fit the small number 10 people, not to mention the surrounding military formation, which is even denser than this.

The range of the Bone Cannon's 300 meters far exceeds the effective distance of most lethal spells (the casting distance of the fireball spell is generally 150 meters to 200 meters, and it increases with the caster's level, and the fireball spell cast by the legendary spell can reach a maximum range of 400 meters), and these monsters have not consciously dispersed and carried out a skirmish charge.

Of course, the effective cast range, kill radius, effective range, etc., described by all spells, just like the effective range of a gun, are only theoretical values, and the most important thing to look at is the actual situation when using it.

In the case of sparse personnel, the radius of destruction of bone shells is definitely more than ten meters, but in the case of such a dense population, an average of five or six meters is not bad.

The monsters that bear the brunt will become the meat shield of the peripheral monsters, helping them to block most of the splash damage, including the negative energy damage that spreads later, will be partially blocked.

Rao is like this, a skeleton cannonball harvests a monster, as few as a dozen, as many as dozens.

What's even more ferocious is that many corpses that have been eroded by negative energy actually staggered to their feet again, of course, not from the dead, but transformed into zombies on the spot, launching a brainless attack on the surrounding teammates, creating follow-up chaos for the monster army.

Moreover, the frequency of these bone cannons is also surprisingly fast, averaging two rounds of two cannons, which is twice the attack speed described by its special ability.

This extra shot is a wonderful chemical reaction after combining with the Dark Tree Man.

These dark treemen all have the ability to root the shadow and absorb negative energy regeneration, and what restricts the regeneration of these bone cannons is the speed of negative energy absorption, which originally needed to be transferred from the Vizeme Manor, but now with the assistance of the dark treemen.

This increase in attack speed only takes effect when the Dark Treant is rooted, and if the Dark Treant attacks while moving, the Bone Cannon will revert back to one round and one shot.

The lethality of the eighteen skeletal cannons was more than twice that of nearly two hundred vehicle-mounted heavy ballistae.

For the monster army, the attack of the vehicle-mounted heavy ballista is a knife slash, which is very easy to heal, and it does not feel too much loss.

The bone cannon is a standard hammer, and even if it is re-covered by the monster behind it, it is much more sparse than the original, covering unevenly like the top of a bald man's head.

This is only a long-range attack, not a medium- and short-range attack.

A second before the monster army collided with the van array, countless red points of light rose from behind the array, flying bigger and bigger in the air.

Fireball!

Mortar heavy artillery on the battlefield.

There is nothing surprising about this, even on the battlefield where hundreds of people clash, they can be seen, let alone on the battlefield where tens of thousands of people fight, if there is no fireball technique to ignite the sky and the earth, it will make people unaccustomed to it.

It's just that the fireball technique that rises in the army of conquerors is inevitably too much and too dense.

Densely, like arrows, the whole sky was obscured, and if there were not five hundred, there must be three hundred.

Directly cover all the 100 meters in front of the position of the pioneer vanguard army, and directly turn this place into a fire purgatory, there is no place to hide, the wisest choice is to lie on the ground and accept the flame impact and baptism of one of the fireball techniques.

Otherwise, it is likely that not one, but two or three, will cause damage to them, and the shockwave from the explosion of the Fireball Technique may sweep them into the coverage of other Fireball Spells.

That terrifying scene directly made the entire battlefield silent, and everyone looked dumbfounded at the battlefield after being baptized by hundreds of fireball spells.

Less than half of them were still standing, most of them were still injured, and there was a smell of smoke and fire all over their bodies, whether it was goblins, or gnolls, goblins or orcs, their eyes were a little dull.

This is completely inconsistent with the propaganda and mobilization they heard before the war, doesn't it mean that this is an army of immigrants? The whole army had less than 10,000 troops, and the rest were all weak like lambs, and if they tore open the outer shell, the tender meat inside would be left to them.

Their firepower is fierce, making them feel that they are not facing a team of immigrants, but the Purple Dragon Legion of the Cormier Kingdom, only this perverted country will equip its army with so many mages and will gather spellcasters into a legion to use.

Before the enemy could touch it, most of their teammates had already fallen?

How will this battle be fought?

There was also a three-meter-high wall in front of it, which was covered with a dense pile of spears.

They didn't have much time to think about it, and in the face of the crowd tactics that had been agitated, they had no possibility of retreating at all, and the monsters that surged up behind them would push them to continue to advance.

And the longer they stay here, the longer they are in danger, because the Conqueror's army has not only fireball magic in its medium and short-range attacks, but also thousands of arrows, densely covering the entire battlefield.

The continuous rain of arrows is perfect for harvesting the remnants of the enemy after the baptism of the fireball technique, and many of them are lying on the ground and are barely able to defend and dodge.

But even if there is no harvest of this wave of arrow rain, their chances of survival are very small, and the army of monsters that continue to pour up behind them, but whether they die or not, the big-footed girls will step on it mercilessly, and it won't be long before they will be trampled alive and die, and die early under the rain of arrows, but it is a relief.

"Kill! Rush in and kill all those humans, all the riches are ours. ”

"Kill all the men, take all the wealth and all the women."

"Victory is ours!"

Shelling, rain of arrows, and magic blasted the monsters to the army of conquerors, but they were blocked by a huge wall of vehicles.

Strictly speaking, this is the first time that the partial van formation has been put into actual combat.

In the Blood Canyon defensive counterattack, the main force was not the partial van, but the building chariot, when a hundred building chariots were placed to fill the entire Blood Canyon, and the second line of defense built by the partial van in the back played the auxiliary.

These side wagons, printed from a mould, when connected end to end, are condescendingly mounted by soldiers with spears on the side of the carriage facing outward, capable of either firing through the reserved firing air or using spears to stab downwards to keep the enemy out of the walls.

Like Goliath and Frogman, there are not no monster soldiers who jump three meters high, but they are only a minority.

And the result of them doing so will only make them die faster.

Most of the spearmen in front were recruits or less courageous, and they relied on the walls of the car to defend themselves, and they could just poke blindly with their eyes closed.

The real elites are squatting in the back of the side van, or under the side side car, waiting for those powerful monsters to break through the car wall, and then carry out a quick harvest.

After they jumped in, they definitely faced not one-on-one heads-up, but group fighting.

It wasn't until the front of the wall of the side van car that it was densely packed with people, and the entire car wall was pushed and swayed, and when the successive fireball spells in the monster group began to rise, the second round of fireball techniques smashed down viciously, and the number was only a lot more than the first round.

The army of conquerors can have such terrifying firepower, thanks to Avantor Ames, this guy is worthy of the evil beast ghost of the greedy and lustful devil Grand Duke Maman, he took greed to the extreme, he hoarded more than a thousand wands and more than a hundred magic wands in his portable dimensional cave, of which 800 wands are fireball wands.

The price of a single fireball wand is not expensive, only five or six thousand, one or two is easy to do, but if you want to start in large quantities of ten or eight, it will be more troublesome.

Many forces regard it as a strategic material reserve, and they will not make it at all, as for making it yourself, you need at least six mage levels, and you can completely understand the principle of fireball magic, and each one takes at least eight hours to make.

Hundreds of hoarding, either you have enough time to accumulate little by little, or like the Cormir Kingdom, you have enough intermediate mages for you to mix - as for the warlocks, most of them are users of spells, and if you want to make magic items such as wands and wands, you have to spend a lot of time researching and learning the corresponding magic principles and crafting processes.

And the mage who is proficient in the craft of making magical items is what Gavin lacks the most, and the six female mages sent to him by the Roinhearn family with ulterior motives must be treated as treasures.

With these 800 fireball wands, the conqueror army immediately has 800 mortar heavy cannons with a capacity of 60 rounds - Gavin has always paid great attention to the cultivation of battlefield spellcasters, and the third-level difficulty is not high.

Unexpectedly, this shortcoming was made up for by Avanetor's necromancer.

It is estimated that he did not expect to kill Arms, and he did not expect that he had hoarded all the wealth he had hoarded for centuries and gave it to the army of conquerors as a wedding dress.

The army of conquerors has used their actual actions to explain what it means to fight more and more.

This is also the reason why the army of conquerors did not show too much fear from top to bottom, knowing that there were a bunch of enemies waiting for them in the Goblin Frontier.

There are too many hole cards in their hands, and what they think about from beginning to end is not whether they will fail, but how to reduce their losses as much as possible, especially the loss of personnel, and then get more benefits from the enemy.

Looking at the situation below, Xi Manmeng's face was extremely ugly, he didn't feel sorry for the monster soldiers who were slaughtered below, this thing has never been part of his forces, just like the weeds on the side of the road, on the Feren Continent, as long as you have power and financial resources, you really want as much as you want.

What made it difficult for him to accept was the irreparable situation, the monster army of the Dark Castle, now facing not the entire army of conquerors, at best, a third, paying thousands of casualties, just barely rushing in front of their camp.

And it has become a meat grinder completely, and the monster army will rush forward one after another, killing them.

Until the casualties reach a certain point, the entire monster army completely collapses, and at that time, it will be the moment when their heavy cavalry attack, and they can't run on four legs on the wasteland.

If the Lizard Queen is killed by the other side again, the Lizard Army of Thun Swamp will collapse on all fronts.

As long as they hold this bridge of man and god firmly in their hands, they will lock the group of lizardmen in the swamp of Thun.

And the gathering of the legendary ghost women in the open sea swamp will be lonely, and they can only retreat to the far sea swamp.

At that time, the entire Goblin Frontier Wasteland will be left to the conqueror's army to knead and cut, and the Dark Fortress will be driven out of here in a short time.

This is still the most optimistic development, if the Lizard Queen is scared by them, or if the legendary ghost women of the far sea swamps gather to throw themselves into the arms of the conquerors, the situation in the Goblin Frontier will completely spiral out of control, sliding in a direction that Simon can not even predict.

This possibility is not existent, but very large.

Because the black fog created by the other party was extraordinary, the more Xi Manmeng looked at it, the more he felt that something was wrong, because as the war continued, wisps of black fog were constantly joining it.

When the number is small at first, it is not easy to notice.

When the battle at Xiqiaotou broke out completely, the conqueror's army began to harvest the lives of those monsters in large quantities, and countless black mist floated out from the battlefield at the same time to join them, and even ordinary people noticed the abnormality.

It wasn't black mist at all, but souls, souls that belonged to those dead monsters.

The soul that was supposed to go to the City of Judgment and wait for the judgment and reception was actually robbed alive, and the meaning of this is a bit shocking, what kind of ability did the commander of the conqueror's army use? If the Lizard Queen is killed there, will she still have the ability to resurrect?

But it is rumored that the little baron has the ability to hinder the resurrection of the enemy, so this is not the ability, right?

If that's the case, the Lizard Queen will have a lot of fun.

Simon didn't know that his estimate of the situation was still a little too optimistic.

Gavin's ability is not as simple as stopping the resurrection, but also controlling it in his own hands, and in turn to control the lizard army.

The Lizard Queen and her army of lizarders have always been the first target of the conqueror's army, and the previous battle was completely prepared for them, in order to stagger the time of the other two forces, and fight the lizard queen alone.

This had nothing to do with the Crown Princess's previous trade request, but was entirely motivated by the interests of the Conqueror's army and Gavin's special abilities.

The Lizard King's way of existence is destined to be centered on the Lizard Queen, who has absolute loyalty to her from top to bottom, and will unconditionally obey whatever orders she makes, even if it is to turn the original enemy into their own allies.

This is simply an excellent opponent in the field of undead revenge, as long as you kill it and transform it into the Night Shadow state, the original three-on-one will immediately become two-on-two.

And on the newly acquired Bitch Terminator, there is a ghost dueling arena, which is really suitable for this kind of place.

It's just that I didn't expect that although this black dragon was fat, it was not stupid, and it had been lurking under the river to manipulate the huge waves, sending its own cannon fodder to carry out repeated temptations.

The Shadow Duel Arena only has one chance to use it once a day, and without being 100% sure, Gavin doesn't dare to make a move easily, once he surprises this guy, he sneaks back into the River of the Desert and sneaks back to the Thun Swamp, and then finds a chance to kill her, I'm afraid it will be ten or a hundred times more difficult.

In desperation, she could only show that the enemy was weak, and when she held a large number of means, she did not dare to use it easily, and let her send her cannon fodder army to the bridge of people and gods, until she felt that she had a certain chance of winning and couldn't help jumping out, which was the moment when Gavin made a move.

Before the Lizard Queen could release the first strong acid dragon breath she had carefully prepared, she was pulled into the Shadow Duel Arena by Gavin.

This shadow dueling arena is very similar to the shadow duel that Gavin had in Ivantor and Arms in the town hall, entering the gap between the material plane and the shadow plane, a dimensional space temporarily carved out with shadow energy, this space is detached from the material plane, but it is leaning on it, only as a vague background.

In other words, Gavin and the Lizard Queen are still on the Bridge of Men and Gods, but the bridge is infinitely long and infinitely wide.
