Listening to the scout's words, every time the scout said a piece of data, the expressions on everyone's faces would change at the same time.
When he said that there were only 1.4 million skeleton soldiers in the Undead Army, everyone including Bott showed an extremely relaxed expression. After all, in the previous battle, 4 million skeleton soldiers plus nearly 2 million beast undead could not do anything to the magician army of the Yan Kingdom. So after losing nearly 2/3 of the troops in this attack, it would be a pipe dream for the Undead Army to defeat the Yan Kingdom.
When talking about the more than 3,000 Undead Knights, everyone present looked extremely unnatural. 3,000 Undead Knights, this number does sound very small... But anyone who knows something about the Undead Calamity a thousand years ago will think of the war that took place outside the imperial city of the Mokaster Empire. The 120,000 strongest royal guards of the Mokaster Empire, in a battle with less than 5,000 Undead Knights, ended up with both sides perishing. It was this war that forced the Mokaster Empire to finally join hands with the Kingdom of Yan to fight against the Undead Mage.
But then, a sound that frightened them even more finally reached their ears. The news of more than ten ghost dragons made everyone present stunned on the spot, and they could no longer utter a word.
What does it mean to have more than ten ghost dragons? According to the concept of people in this world, a dragon, as long as he has the blood of the dragon clan, has the ability to completely turn a city into ruins. Although ghost dragons are just a kind of thing close to dragons, but not yet dragons, in fact, except that they cannot use the dragon language magic unique to dragons, they are not much different from real dragons. The strong and huge body, the speed of wind, and the extremely frightening corrosive dragon flame will be the nightmare of people who encounter him.
"William, you immediately..."
"Sir, the orc troops are coming. It is estimated that they have deployed millions of troops this time..."
Just as Bout was about to dispatch troops to clear out a stable rear area, the voice of the soldier in the sentry tower on the city wall made him swallow the following words. Deploying more than a million troops in an attack was not fun. If he did not resist with all his strength, he might have to die here today.
"It seems that they are all ready to take down the Canglang Line in one fell swoop... Then let them come! Boys, hold on hard, we will show those long-haired guys that we humans are not easy to mess with..." After a few words to boost morale, after arranging the troops, Bout turned his attention to the rear. After all, in his eyes, although the orcs have deployed a rare force in history to attack the Canglang Line, with the high walls of the Canglang Line, they will definitely be able to push those orcs off the wall. However, the troops of the Kingdom of Yaen are what worries him the most at this time. If the troops of the Kingdom of Yaen fail, then he will be attacked from both sides by the undead and the orcs. If such a situation really happens, it is really not something that Bout dares to imagine... . . . . .
"My lord, the magicians of the Kingdom of Yan appear to be very powerful, at least much more powerful than when they first arrived here."
"Oh! Really? How did you know that? Then can they resist those undead?" After listening to his staff officer's words, Bout had no interest in discussing the strength of the magicians of the Kingdom of Yan. At this moment, he was only concerned about the battle in front of him, whether those skeletons would break through the magician troops of the Kingdom of Yan and rush to his feet.
"My lord, I didn't see it, I felt the fluctuation of magic power in the distance through my own induction. Since the magicians of the Kingdom of Yann have completely moved into that castle, I found that the magic elements nearby have become much more active. Even the time I need to recover magic power and use magic has been shortened a lot. And just now, I found that the magic fluctuations revealed in the castle opposite suddenly increased a lot, as if they used a super-strong large-scale amplification magic. But when it comes to defeating those undead troops, I am still not so optimistic about them... Among them... The biggest reason is because of the war awareness that those super magicians and upper-level commanders of the Kingdom of Yann have always shown..."
"Hmph! You mean... those cowardly super mages and commanders of the Yan Kingdom all have the idea of running away first at a critical moment? Damn it... It seems that asking them to handle it alone is really a failed strategy. If they are mixed together, at least I can still restrain and coerce them when necessary, but now... But now... **** fucking..." Suddenly remembering the low-level jokes about the mages of the Yan Kingdom that have been circulating on this continent, Bout slapped himself hard.
"Sir, look... what do those people want to do?" Suddenly, a magician beside Bout cast a reconnaissance magic and asked in confusion to a group of magicians who were gathering magic power in a secret pit in front of the castle on the light screen.
"Light magic, they are using light magic that the magicians said has special effects on undead troops. It seems that they are preparing to raid those undead! But will it work?" The wizard who was talking to Bout immediately made his judgment after hearing his colleague's words, but he had great doubts about the role that hundreds of mages who were gathering magic power in the pit could play.
But no one at the scene answered him, and even he himself seemed to have forgotten his question, because at this time, the undead army led by more than ten ghost dragons and 3,000 undead knights had approached and entered the attack range of the ambushers.
In a few breaths, the light mages who had been waiting for the opportunity instantly launched hundreds of light magics, aiming directly at the ghost dragons and undead knights. After a violent explosion, the undead knights were hit by the light magics and immediately had various problems. Some of them lost their ability to move, while others were so dizzy that they could not even tell the direction of their movements and wandered around. As for the powerful ghost dragons, although they suffered more magic attacks, with the support of their strong physique, the light magics only replaced their skin. However, although this attack did not cause much damage to the ghost dragons, it also caused them to have another consequence, which was a temporary pause.
"What a pity! If the magic was focused on a part of the undead army, I think the effect would be much better. At least it wouldn't be like now, where the undead knights were only slightly confused and the ghost dragons were only slightly paused..." Seeing the situation in front of him, even Bout, who didn't know magic, complained a lot about the situation in front of him. Bout also looked down on the leader he saw earlier.
After several times in a row, Bout could no longer stand this game of playing house that only made him look at the sound and color but had no effect. Just as he turned his head away in anger, he unexpectedly discovered that the two magicians beside him were staring blankly at the front, refusing to even blink, and even drooling involuntarily. . . . .
What on earth was going on? Bout, who had always known the steady personalities of his two subordinates, couldn't help but follow their gazes. . . . . . (To be continued)
