"Sir, please retreat to the city wall. It's too dangerous here." Looking at the approaching ghost dragon and the hundreds of thousands of undead troops that were gathering and rushing across the mountains to meet here again, Yiya couldn't help but worry about my safety.
In her mind, I not only helped her to save her parents from the barren land of orphans, thus fulfilling her wish, but also because I resolutely disregarded my own safety and tried my best to save her and her people when she was injured, so that they can stand here safely.
In addition, for Yiya, the perfect wisdom and invincible bravery I have shown in the continuous battles from the beginning of the battle outside the Magic Temple of the Kingdom of Yan to the present have deeply made her believe that only I can lead them to the final victory.
"Yiya, don't worry about my safety. I know how to protect myself. Now I must stay here and let every warrior and mage play their role and fulfill their responsibilities.
Otherwise, if we are breached by the undead troops at any point, we will suffer huge losses that we simply cannot afford, or even be annihilated. Perhaps you also know the strategic nature of the magicians of the Kingdom of Yan. Once the first person escapes, everything will be over.
Of course, whoever dares to become the first person, I will make sure he dies a miserable death. At the same time, his family and relatives will not have any chance of surviving on this continent. . . . . "
With a meaningful tone, I whispered to comfort Yiya. At the same time, I also used these words to warn the magicians of the Kingdom of Yann who were around me, so that they could convey my determination and warning to those who were interested.
As Yiya and the Yan magicians around me showed thoughtful expressions, the seven ghost dragons that were approaching the castle at a very fast speed had arrived less than 800 meters outside the castle and were approaching at a speed as fast as a rocket.
"Send a volley, send a volley, don't do any meaningful scattering or coverage attacks, we must concentrate our firepower, otherwise it will be impossible to cause deep damage to those monsters that even forbidden spells can't kill directly..."
Following my orders, groups of magicians, with the strength of hundreds or thousands of people, gathered huge waves of magic attacks that were beyond human power, and rushed towards the ghost dragon in batches quickly and orderly.
"Stupid, too good..." I couldn't help but curse under my breath as I watched the magics shoot straight at the ghost dragons. But then, I saw an incredible scene. Those ghost dragons, which were known as the most intelligent in the world of the dead, twisted strangely in the air for a few times as if they were having a seizure, and then were hit directly by the magics. . . . . .
"Strange, how is this possible?" Looking at this incredible scene, I had only one feeling, that is, I was fooled, fooled by the information of the damn Imperial Magic and Martial Arts Students of the Kasdek Empire, and the memory of the bullshit Holy Magister in the cave in the Land of the Descendants. In those materials, the ghost dragon was created by the necromancer, and a necromancer transformed by a high-level mage voluntarily sacrificed his soul into the soul of the ghost dragon, so that the ghost dragon regained life. At the same time, this ghost dragon will also gain most of the wisdom of the necromancer who sacrificed his soul, making the ghost dragon the smartest among the undead creatures, and the evil undead whose thoughts are closest to humans. But the performance of these undead dragons before was not only not smart at all, but even stupid. Otherwise, how could they just twitch a few times like they had schizophrenia, and then be directly hit by this single magic
"Keep going, keep attacking like this, don't be dazed, that's it, smash all those damn things to pieces. As long as we survive this crisis, we will have a chance to annihilate all the undead..."
Seeing the clumsy ghost dragon being hit directly by magic without any escape, the court wizard from the Kingdom of Yan danced with excitement and shouted incoherently, urging the magician troops to speed up the pace of attack.
In an instant, seven huge fireworks explosions appeared in front of the castle, and the magic in the sky rushed towards those seven locations as if it was risking its life, and emitted dazzling brilliance after contacting the ghost dragons. Afterwards, those gorgeous magics would always blow off some parts from those huge and ugly ghost dragons.
Finally, after rushing forward for hundreds of meters, the ghost dragon that suffered the most damage in the previous forbidden magic could not bear the torture of such a dense magic attack, and fell straight to the ground in mid-air, and then turned into a pile of broken pieces with a bang.
"Long live!"
Just as the ghost dragon fell to the ground and was smashed to pieces, hundreds of thousands of people in the entire castle cheered loudly at the same time, expressing their excitement and optimism about the future. After all, with the first one, there will be the second and the third, until all the ghost dragons and even the undead army are wiped out.
"Sir, we succeeded, we succeeded... As long as we keep going, we will definitely be able to kill all those damn, evil undead creatures..." Faced with this exciting achievement, several high-ranking magicians lost their usual reserve and kept chattering to me excitedly as if they were presenting treasures, as if they had already won a complete victory.
"Hopefully! This is just the first one, there are 6 more ghost dragons below, we have to keep working hard..." Hearing these words, I didn't say anything, nor did I say anything for sure. Because after observing from a distance of hundreds of meters, I didn't have any hope of using magic to kill all the ghost dragons before they entered the castle, and we lacked strong melee fighters who could withstand the attacks of those ghost dragons. So I really had no idea about the losses we would suffer in the future.
"Support the six-series magic array. The magician troops on the 4th floor and above are ready to evacuate the castle by battalion before the magic array collapses, and then continue to attack the ghost dragons in battalions. The rest of the magicians and all the survivors continue to resist the army of the undead in the castle." As the ghost dragons approached quickly, I ordered the erection of 6 layers of magic shields to strengthen the castle's defense as much as possible. Although I also know that for ghost dragons, this level of magic shield is difficult to block those monsters, but I just hope that the 6 layers of magic shields can buy a little time for the magician troops to evacuate. Otherwise, if the ghost dragons rush into the magician troops without melee troops to protect them, it will be a disaster.
As soon as I finished speaking, layers of magic shields were immediately erected under the guidance of those high-ranking magicians, and the color of the shields gradually deepened. . . . .
When the magic shield had just stabilized, the ghost dragons, which had been dizzy and had their parts scattered by the massive amount of magic, finally rushed to the front of the castle at the cost of killing three of their companions during the charge. They began to use their strength second only to that of real dragons and their vitality far exceeding that of ordinary dragons to fiercely hit the magic shield above the castle.
"Retreat, follow the retreat plan just now, all magicians above the 4th floor will immediately evacuate the castle and prepare at various locations inside the defense shield. When the defense shield is broken, they will immediately evacuate the castle and continue to attack those damn flying insects." When those huge ghost dragons, which were more than ten meters tall, began to hit the city wall with their huge and heavy bodies, I immediately waited for those magicians to launch a round of attacks together, and then ordered all magicians on higher floors to evacuate immediately. After all, the higher the position, the easier it is to be attacked by those flying creatures, and at the bottom, not only will the flying insects' movements be restricted, but they will also be threatened by the survivors' warriors.
"Damn it..." As soon as I finished speaking, the magicians had not yet completely evacuated the castle's upper structure in response to my order, and the magic shield composed of six types of magic suffered a devastating disaster. After just two rounds of impact from the four giant flying insects, the magic shield was broken into pieces of broken basic magic elements, scattered around the castle. The giant flying insects that had just broken through the magic shield also immediately seized the opportunity and quickly followed the retreating magician troops, biting them and desperately chasing them.
"Damn it, damn it, damn it! A magician troop of more than 60,000 was chased by four ghost dragons. It's simply a joke. Damn it, don't those magicians know to disperse?" Looking at the magician troop flying around in the sky above the castle, fleeing in no order, I couldn't help but curse madly again.
"Sir, didn't you give an order that anyone who escapes 5 kilometers from the castle walls would be sentenced to death for treason?"
"Uh! Did I say that? Maybe..." I couldn't help but sigh after hearing Yiya's reminder. Due to the intensity of the war, and in order to stabilize the morale of the troops and ensure that the troops did not lose their combat capability, I kept adjusting and issuing various orders. At this time, even I could not clearly understand how many orders and instructions I had issued.
"Everyone, circle around the castle clockwise. Gather together and use magic resonance to better escape the ghost dragon's pursuit. After one circle, immediately start from the front, farthest from the ghost dragon, and evacuate to the outer periphery in batches of about a hundred people..." Looking at the magician troops fleeing aimlessly, I had to order them to evacuate in an orderly manner according to my method. Then, I waved to the several high-level magicians who followed closely behind me.
"Hyrule, prepare to release the forbidden spell 800 meters in front of the castle. We must kill those ghost dragons completely, otherwise we will have no chance at all..."
"Well, sir, we still have at least 6,000 to 10,000 magicians who are unable to escape the pursuit of those four evil dragons. If we take this opportunity to attack those ghost dragons, then nearly 10,000 of our magicians will be buried with them. Don't you think this loss is too great?" After hearing my order, Hyrule and some other high-ranking magicians showed a hypocritical look of reluctance.
"Which do you think is more important, the safety of thousands of magicians who cannot escape or nearly 100,000 magicians? And isn't the scene of hundreds of magicians who died heroically enough to make those magicians realize this? Therefore, in the name of the supreme commander of the legion, I now order you to execute this order immediately. As long as we get through this difficult time, will our magician army of the Kingdom of Yan be afraid of any other army? Now, the moment when the kingdom really needs you has come. I hope you can truly contribute your strength to the kingdom..."
“…”
A few minutes later, a forbidden spell that covered the sky and the sun directly plowed the several kilometers in front of the castle. All the mages, including those huge ghost dragons, and the undead troops that had gathered again, all suffered a devastating blow again. So far, those ghost dragons and undead knights that could threaten the main force of the magician army of the Kingdom of Yan have all become a thing of the past. And those undead troops have also reduced their number to an extremely low number due to the creation of ghost dragons and undead knights. Now, although the entire magician army of the Kingdom of Yan has lost more than 10,000 magicians, it is now our turn to counterattack... (To be continued)
