Age of Adepts

Chapter 230: Defense battle

Views:

The flames of war in the jungle are getting closer and closer!

Several areas have already been broken through. Demon hunter knights standing high on the magic horses and wielding dazzling long swords frequently appeared on the edge of the wizard camp, fighting with the witch beasts, mechanical beasts and ghouls guarding there. You fight to the death.

If there weren't a lot of witchcraft traps around the camp, I'm afraid hordes of witch hunter knights would have already poured into the camp and began to besiege the war witch tower directly.

But even so, as the flames of war gradually burned under the Wu Tower, the space left for the wizards to move became smaller and smaller. Gradually, the last batch of resistance gathered in front of the main entrance of the Wu Tower. The thirteen wizards who swore to defend to the death guarded this place, not retreating an inch.

On this flat battlefield of less than 500 meters, there are as many as 300 summoned beasts and puppet beasts of various types active. As for the relatively low-level witch beasts and mechanical beasts, they have all been filled under the butcher knife of the demon hunter knight.

The mountains and forests around the Wu Tower suffered all kinds of devastating blows, and there were continuous seas of fire and violent natural storms everywhere. Once the ferocious fire was ignited, it was difficult to extinguish, and in a blink of an eye, the mountains and forests with a radius of tens of miles were plunged into a sea of flames.

Teams of demon hunter knights emerged from the forest in file and began to gather around the camp.

There are still traces of fire licking on their faces and bodies, and fine scratches cut by wind blades can be vaguely seen on the armor. Although they paid a heavy price for passing through this terrifying area, with the hope of victory and hatred for wizards, they still forged ahead, and finally came to the bottom of this terrifying witch tower.

The demon hunting knights in twos and threes gathered together and reorganized the team. The nine glorious knights led the less than 4,000 witcher knights and continued to charge against the last line of defense of the wizards.

Look back at the way you came from!

In this jungle, in a narrow area less than 5 miles away, the overwhelming army of knights paid the lives of 2 brilliant knights, 33 spell-breaking knights, and more than 2,000 demon hunting knights. Such a heavy price is simply beyond the limit of everyone's imagination!

This undulating and rugged mountain jungle has become a burial ground, with mutilated corpses of knights and fragmented remains of magic horses everywhere. Now, as the wildfire spreads, everything is consumed by the blazing fire!

To be honest, if the Green Dragon Squad and the Dragon Knights hadn't destroyed half of the arrangement of the wizards with their continuous dive attacks in the sky, I'm afraid the casualties of the witcher knights would have been even greater and more tragic!

Compared with the sacrifices of the knights, in this jungle, there are also two wizards who came across the plane and fell forever!

This also means that the number of wizards sent by the Sarubo family to the knight plane has reached as many as seven. This... This is getting closer and closer to the psychological bottom line predetermined by the family's senior management! Once the number of lost wizards exceeds 9, even if the family wins this plane, they may not be able to develop it quickly.

After all, the foundation of the family guarding the wizarding world needs wizards, and wizards are also needed to guard the two secondary planes. In the short term, pulling out the main force of wizards in a certain plane to carry out a plane war will not have much impact or impact on the local situation. However, once the main force of the family is pinned down in a certain region for a long time or the power is exhausted too much, the ruling structure at the entire family level will become unstable.

After successfully invading the knight plane, it may be able to bring huge benefits to the Sarupo family every year, but maintaining this kind of rule requires strong strength. The same is true for the other two subplanes. Once the main force of the family has been away for too long, the local opposition forces there will hear the news of a new wave of resistance, but the loss outweighs the gain!

So when the two wizards died in battle under the sneak attack of the dragon knight, the senior family finally made the decision to shrink strategically and stick to the gate of the witch tower.

At this moment, the construction inside the Wu Tower restrained eleven wizards, so only the last thirteen wizards remained at the entrance of the Wu Tower, including the second-level wizard Fogan.

At the forefront of the team is of course a group of powerful wizards, mainly 3 body-training wizards, who also assisted a large number of summoned creatures. Greem and that Wizard Hyde also had good physiques after transformation, so they were distributed on both sides to assist in defense.

More wizards stayed within the protective circle, constantly throwing powerful witchcraft in a wide range into the densely forested knight team. Most of those wizards who are not good at fighting also part-time some special wizard professions, or throw a lot of potions to summon some summoned creatures with strange abilities, or pull out bags of witchcraft scrolls, and smash them down on the knight's head frantically superior.

Two wizards who were good at curse witchcraft started to cast spells crazily, throwing curse halos of different colors into the area where the knights were most dense.

The witcher knight in the front row had just rushed 30 meters in front of the wizard, and was covered with a colorful halo of disgusting curses. Not to mention dizzy, weak, and weak, his body seemed to be covered with a thick layer of mud, and his every move and every movement changed. It was unusually slow.

Turning even the wildest charges of the knights into ludicrous slow motion.

All kinds of terrifying magical plants sprang out from the ground, entangled, pierced, or blood-sucking... creating huge troubles for the demon hunter knights who were struggling to move forward!

The demon hunter knight's charge on the back side was blocked, so he had to put away his sword and replace it with a rune bow. Fire arrows and ice arrows rained into the area defended by the wizard.

Originally, the weak attack with such elemental damage could not bring any threat to the wizards at all. But it can't stand the large number of opponents, and the strength of the wizards is seriously depleted.

As a result, the three body-refining wizards swelled up like terrifying giants, flying over and smashing every demon hunter knight who came into their sight into meat paste, while setting up a protective barrier, struggling to block the knights' strange attacks Ranged attack.

The body-refining wizards are strong, and may be able to withstand such a density of continuous attacks, but the blood giants, creeping monsters, rock puppets, evil eyes and other summoned creatures clustered around them are unbearable. The wailing full of arrows fell to the ground and disappeared.

Soon, the courageous demon hunter knights waded through the witchcraft traps with their flesh and blood, broke into the wizard's defensive circle, and fought with them at close range.

The three body-refining wizards defended the front, while Greem was assigned to the left.

Here, he alone needs to defend a wide defense line of nearly 70 meters. And all his puppet legion had been lost in the dead forest, and now the only ones who could stand in front of him were the flame lord, the lightning giant, and two quasi-witch-level water men!

Once upon a time, the lightning giant was Greem's powerful main battle puppet. But as he advanced to become a wizard, it was already difficult for this kind of quasi-witch-level puppet to keep up with his footsteps. Even if it occasionally appears on the battlefield, it has been reduced to some kind of consumable.

But no matter how difficult the situation was, his situation was far stronger than Wizard Hyde on the other side.

In any case, Greem still has 4 subordinates to share the pressure, but Wizard Hyde needs to defend such a wide battlefield space by himself.

If it wasn't for his mechanical body, as long as his mental strength was not exhausted, he would have inexhaustible physical strength. If it were another wizard, he might be exhausted from running back and forth to clean up the rushing knights.

In the jungle, when encountering an invincible target, they can run to fight, fly to fight, or directly switch the battlefield. But here, even if a small group of law-breaker knights rushed to face you, you could only grit your teeth and go forward, defending your position with your life.

As for reinforcements? As long as there is no shining knight, then the level 2 wizard Furgen will never make a move!

Therefore, Greem was lucky enough to take the time to appreciate the heroic figure of that wizard Hyde.

In terms of the inherent nature of wizards, Hyde must have hidden part of his strength. But when five law-breaker knights teamed up to kill him, it became very difficult to hide his strength, unless he didn't want to live anymore.

So in the next second, Wizard Hyde turned into a big octopus with a dozen thick metal tentacles. Except for the head and a small part of the body that still retains the human form in the center, the other body parts are quickly assembled and combined into terrifying metal spike tentacles, sweeping towards several magic-breaking knights like a storm .

No wonder he was respectfully called Boss Hyde by that Thunderbird, and he really possessed a terrifying power far exceeding that of ordinary people when fighting in close quarters. Under Greem's shocking gaze, the Hyde boss cut the five incoming lawbreaker knights into pieces.

And the price he paid was only minor injuries!

Three of the twelve metal tentacles were severed, and two suffered damage to varying degrees. When Wizard Hyde regained his human form from the octopus form, large areas of defects appeared on the surface of his body. The countless fast-rotating gears and bearings in the body also made creaking noises, and it seemed that they couldn't even operate very well.

And at this moment, Greem's good luck also reversed!

A brilliant knight appeared in front of him with two law-breaker knights and nearly a hundred witcher knights, rushing up screaming. And at this time, the second-level wizard Furgen was fighting with the two glorious knights in the front of the position, and even the three body-refining wizards silently withdrew from that area.

Due to the narrowness of the battlefield, it was difficult for Greem's transformed Balrog to create a wide enough lava pool, and the golems under him were not strong enough to resist such a powerful raiding team.

Therefore, Greem could only roar and desperately!
