Chapter 363: Dust Storm
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
A little firelight burned an orange-red fireball, and the fireball expanded, bursting into a huge flame...... Then, the boiling heat wave swept out around the explosion point!
In the next breath, everyone felt the ground jump under their feet! Before they could react, a strange sight appeared in their field of vision—in fact, it was extremely spectacular: gray powder, a cloud of expansion, and a dark red flame swelled violently in the cloud, and the thick white center tumbled into a billowing red cloud in the blink of an eye, like a monster curled up in it and suddenly opened its huge body, and the red fire ball suddenly stretched outward thousands of times! Wrap the entire battlefield!
And then there was the violent storm that burst out because of it!
Before everyone had time to react, a small group of knights dispersed...... They were torn apart by an unrivalled thrust, and they were tossed out of their surroundings by an unrivalled thrust, and then the next team, and the next pile
The knights, wrapped in red light, looked like a swarm of ants, they wanted to turn their horses' heads, they wanted to jump off their horses, they wanted to avoid the red aura...... But their struggle was clearly in vain! All of them stretched outward, and the crimson clouds completely drowned them in the sea of fire. The instantaneous rise in temperature made them scream, but the sound was already drowned out by the terrifying crackling sound!
Then, the storm that had been blown out flipped violently, surging back towards its original position, and with an even more violent thunderous explosion poured into the huge cavity that had been burned out!
For a moment, no sound could be heard on the entire battlefield...... For a moment, the world was enveloped in an eerie silence.
Everyone was screaming, and everyone only saw the people around them, their mouths opening and closing like fish out of water, but they couldn't make a sound. For the next second or two, the world stood still, as if the whole thing was encased in a delicate crystal container, and every person, every movement, froze in that instant.
And then. The earth-shattering screaming sound seemed to come from the horizon, or from the depths of the heart! It seemed to fill the whole heaven and earth. It roared and roared, piercing everyone's ear drums, eclipsing all other voices and making all qiē tremble in front of it.
A storm of air that swept across and erupted outward and flowed back. will be off-white in color. Expand into a rising cloud, and a circle of air swept outward, mixed with dark red sand, dirt, and scattered fragments of what they were. Spread outward, sowing red, red, black and black along the way, then turning into a storm that blew across the wasteland.
Then, when time finally passed a little bit, the sound. Finally back in this world again......
Then the sound of screaming, the moaning, the neighing of the horses, formed a faint noise, as if fear disturbed the silence.
In the rear of the cavalry, it was impossible to restrain the commanders and their retinue, who had been lifted to the ground by their terrified mounts...... The grizzled man stood up from the storm and glared at the one in front of him. Among them were even the less capable spellcasters, who were lying on the ground, barely caring to hold their heads;
No one can understand what this scene represents...... The light from the violent explosion and the loud noise had caused everyone to have tinnitus and blindness from the bright light, the horses neighing, and the people yelling. Some have even forgotten where they are.
Among them was the hapless Jabr.
The already irascible thoroughbred horse under his seat had unceremoniously thrown him off his back at the first moment of the firelight, and then turned and fled without hesitation, so the viscount, who was not very good at riding, almost broke his neck and died! Fortunately, he struggled to use one arm instead of his neck to bear the armor of more than two hundred pounds. So although his arm was simply broken, he managed to save his life after dozens of rolls.
Half of his body was numb. The coldness of the wound was gradually turning into a pain in the heart, the dust was dry on the lips and became salty and bitter, and even the nose was full of that stinky fish.
But now Jabr didn't have much time to curse this qiē, and this fall at least protected him, and there was no other first outburst that blinded his eyes...... And the qiē in his sight had already made him forget everything, only knowing that his heartbeat seemed to have stopped, and every muscle in his body was trembling.
He wasn't a full bag of wine to be in his current position, at least he had been through many small bandit battles, territorial conquests, and a campaign against Kenlan. I've seen some mages perform those earth-shattering arcane ...... But those spells that he had seen from afar would shock him at best, but he had never been so frightened as this moment!
The clouds were growing towards the sky, and the white clouds below were finally blown away by the storm...... Exposed to the very center, it has become a scorched black area.
The remnants of the fire burned faintly on the carcasses of men and animals, filling the remnants of the wind with a disgusting stench, and in a further circle, dozens of horses and their riders fell to the ground, their bodies unscarred except for the blood flowing from their features......
If a well-informed person could recognize it, it was a symptom of direct shock, but for these knights who did not have the slightest knowledge, the appearance of the bleeding from the seven holes was similar to the legendary description of the creature that was cursed to death.
What a vicious curse!
Stretching for nearly a mile, a huge cloud of fire engulfed hundreds of Medium Armored Knights, a deafening explosion and a strong wind that blew everyone on the periphery overturned...... What does this mean?
In that humble convoy, leading the more than 100 ragtag soldiers, it was actually a mage who could cast the arcane magic of the eight rings, or even the nine rings?
Division......
Jabr's breath had almost stopped with that terrible thought, and he never dreamed that he was fighting against such a being......
A division has absolute ability, and destroying an army is like a knight slaughtering a pig and a sheep for them, and their strength is too much, bringing only incredible destruction and death. Even those who have just stepped into the realm of the division can also destroy hundreds of heavily armored knights in a few spells.
But can he really be an ordinary teacher who can release such a huge 'hand' from the beginning?
One by one, thoughts arise and disappear. He finally found himself in a sense of relief...... In the face of a division, any failure can be accepted, however, the next thought makes him can't help but feel sad.
Hundreds of knights, just like that, were wiped out in one blow. Although the real loss is only five or six out of ten. But the loss of the horses was almost total, and only the last few dozen horsemen of the team could barely control their collapsed horses, which meant that at least for a short time. His highly mobile combat power can only move on the ground on two legs like those infantrymen!,
And the most important thing is that the morale of the knights has collapsed in an instant, and it doesn't matter whether the enemy behind them will take advantage of the victory and pursue them. They turned around and ran, ten times faster than they had come. Although they are trained elites, in the face of such indescribable power, no one will not appreciate the weakness of human beings......!
Fight?
Is that idiot the idea of fighting a division?
......
"On the battlefield, if you take the enemy for an idiot, then the biggest idiot is yourself. ”
Edward shook his head as his gaze swept over the retreating crowd.
Although as a psychic warlock who touches the wall of truth. It's not a problem to deal with two or three real-name mages, but if the target is replaced by a few hundred cavalry, with his own strength, it is actually a bit reluctant...... Therefore, it is necessary to use a little means-
First, barbed wire.
This thing is obviously not difficult to make. As long as there are enough iron ingots, with the help of the power of the axe, a single psionic energy, this kind of iron thorn can be made to cover an area of at least a few hundred feet. Place it on either side of the road and add a simple illusion scroll. For the enemy who tries to surround him, it is a surprise soldier.
Of course, barbed wire can stop cavalry, but the damage it does is extremely limited, so the most important purpose is to concentrate the opponent and gather it within the range that the Wind Wall can envelope. Those flours are the most beneficial and cost-effective kills.
When combustibles and air are "well mixed", the scientific name seems to be combustible aerosols. This thing is very dangerous, just one spark is deadly enough;
This is a little residue of Edward's few physics and chemistry teachers who have not yet returned to him, in fact, if it is really a confined space, he is even sure that he can send all these guys back to his hometown, the shock wave alone is enough to make people bleed to death, but now the direct damage is only three or four hundred people, or even less.
But that was enough, even Edward, who was the initiator, did not expect that this little trick would work so smoothly......
If the other party is a little vigilant about this theory, and does not use wind creation to fight back, but directly summons a rain cloud, or any moisture, then this small sneak attack will not make much sense, even if it can explode first, it will not cause much casualties.
But apparently, not many people think so...... No, to be precise, that's not what everyone except the one who started it.
A subtle wave of heat rolled in the third wave of the air, mixed with scorching heat and the stench of corpses, washing over the faces of everyone present.
"It's a scary ......"
Following a slight exclamation, Edward withdrew his gaze and noticed that his young apprentice and several mercenaries were looking at him dumbfounded...... Or bouncing his gaze between him and the rising clouds, each mouth wide enough to swallow an egg or two.
The rolling clouds of fire not only stunned the enemy, but also made the hearts of these new soldiers on the battlefield shake...... The terrible battlefield brought to everyone the same throbbing from the heart, the people who got up from the ground, the people who got out of the back of the carriage that was torn into several sections, the people who stood, the people who lay on their stomachs...... From front to back, this throbbing sensation spreads like ripples, sweeping through the entire team in an instant.
"All of a sudden...... It's over......" Little Ryan let out an unconscious moan, and after a few breaths of stagnation, he finally recovered himself from the great shock: "You...... Is this a legendary cane?" swallowed. He asked tentatively.
It seems like it's still early.
Edward raised his gaze and swept over the soldiers who were struggling and beginning to retreat. Falling in the sky, it gradually becomes clear on the black dots. The cavalry that can threaten here has been almost wiped out, and in the face of this incredible force, as long as there are some brains. I will never dare to provoke again...... But. There may still be some guys, who will show up soon.
With a sneer, the psychic sorcerer took a step back and merged himself into the aura that suddenly bloomed.
......
Rising Qin-like clouds. It is enough for every deposit within a radius of 100 miles to be clearly seen......
A giant eagle spread its wings and soared upwards in the air current, though on its muscular back sat a human man, but it had a wingspan of more than ten feet. It's still enough to make it easy and wanton, driving every wind in the sky......
It's just that the people who ride it can't get relaxed.
Under the lowered hood, the black wood mask shimmered with a faint purple light, and the power of magic allowed the wearer to obtain a gaze comparable to that of a falcon, and when this gaze swept across the ground, the tragic battlefield, black petals generally fell outward. The corpse laid out is enough to make the girl suddenly have a cold war,
This is...... Magic?
The sky in the middle of summer was just cool, but she felt as if a cold wind had risen from hell blowing through her!
This thing. Leia, it's not something you can handle, and for your safety, you'd better not need to know about it......
Warnings from the Elders. Again echoed in the heart, and this time. The words that were originally incomprehensible were already as heavy as Hong Zhong Dalu......
Such an enemy...... It's really not something that you can touch at will.
Yourself, or you have already stepped into a dangerous situation.
Standing up on the back of the giant eagle, she turned sharply and stared at the source of the coldness......
In the sky, I don't know when, there was already the dark figure standing still.
Three hundred, or four hundred feet away, the black-robed man stood with his hands down, small compared to the boundless blue.
However, in the druid's gaze, this darkness seemed to occupy the center of the sky!
A pale palm, sticking out of the black robe, carried a mass of things.
It looked like an eagle, but if you look closely, you can see that it has a humanoid head...... Actually, it should be said that it is a monster formed by the combination of the upper half of a person's body and the lower half of a giant eagle, such a monster, in this plane, no, in fact, there is no such thing in any plane, because he was twisted into this by divine magic.
The wild incarnation of the druid, but it was terminated only halfway through...... But it was given by the gods of nature, and the only thing that could put an end to it was death.
The female druid opened her mouth in disbelief, but she couldn't make any sound, and she could already see the face of the half-human, half-eagle corpse facing her. Her neck hung limply at an abnormal angle, and the bulging eyes of a pale face stared at her.
She knew the face, it was one of her companions.
But now, he is nothing but a corpse.
The short surprise finally ended, she leaned down, in this simple action, her body had been compressed to the limit, and then she would burst out with the fastest speed in her life, escape!
The surging power erupted from her body, but it didn't let her leave the giant eagle's back, and even her vocal cords trembled, and what should have been a note that commanded the giant eagle turned into a meaningless mutter...... The giant eagle at her feet trembled violently, and in the mournful chirping, her body was suddenly thrown up and fell...... The swirling field of vision made her notice for a moment that the giant eagle had spurted countless blood springs from the back of its neck to its tail vertebrae! But more than that, it's crystal clear, as clear as ice cubes!
"You guys, you guys, you have a lot of guts. ”
In the distance, under the black robe, there was a subtle sneer, but that word was imprinted on the druid's heart.
Yes, in his opinion, these druids, however, had only a modest amount of guts.
A bunch of waste.
The so-called experience of the battlefield is actually a very simple thing...... Some people can even go from a who knows nothing to a veteran in just one battle, and the reason is that they have grasped the only trick – concentration.
Concentrate all your energy all the time, invest it in every action you make, into every thing you see, into the analysis of complex situations, and do not let go of any detail, and get something that can be used by yourself. Once you do that, you can be considered to have adapted to the battlefield - on the battlefield, there are things that no amount of training can simulate, and many good players have amazing skills, but a yawning negligence can bury a winning general in the dueling arena.
As the saying goes, the older the rivers and lakes, the less courageous they are, always vigilant and cautious.
And here, the druids are undoubtedly the most failed examples, their sluggish spirit has long been doomed for them, the result of failure.
