There is no concept of size in the ether world, which means that even though there is only one horse, six people will not feel crowded when sitting on it.
Under the guidance of Easterling, the remaining five people rode on the ether horse. In an instant, Dane felt that all the surrounding scenes became obscure and blurred, and were fluctuating in some illusory way, as if he couldn't see anything clearly. And under him is a huge transparent war horse, this is the appearance of this ether mount in the ether world.
This kind of transition plane is not suitable for humans or other residents of the material plane. Dane can clearly feel that the power and all substances in his body seem to be feeling slowly or even carelessly. Ways that are not yet noticeable are passing by.
Easterlin's voice sounded at the right time: "We have to act quickly. Without special preparations, we won't survive long in the etheric world."
"Well, let's go."
The war horse started to run, and the speed at the beginning seemed to be no different from that of a horse, and it directly passed through the wall. In the blurred and distorted field of vision, Dane saw many demons, and the horseshoe stepped on the demon's body, but there was no half impact, and the demons seemed to be unable to see them. Still storming towards the house where they previously hid, shrouded in positive energy.
"It's amazing." Fal'o gave an evaluation. Although he is also a spellcaster, the Druid's natural spells don't have the ability to link to other transitional planes—at least he hasn't yet. master.
The speed of the war horse is constantly increasing, but no matter how fast it is, there is no wind floating around. The people sitting on the mount can only see the blurry scene being swept by quickly.
They didn't know where Patience was, but that didn't mean they didn't know where to find Patience. Now that Dane guessed that the army led by Patience must still be resisting, then the matter is relatively simple - as long as they rush to the place where the largest number of demons gather, there should be nothing wrong.
Sure enough, the strategy they chose was not wrong. In the vague scene, they saw a battle taking place. What is particularly concerning is that huge black monster that seems to be over five meters tall!
Under the illusory vision of the etheric world, no one can see clearly what this monster is, only a mass of black with red in it. But this didn't prevent Dane from trying to understand why the team led by Patience was repulsed. It was obviously due to this guy.
In an emergency, Easterling immediately disbanded the summoned ether mount, and the six immediately separated from the ether world and returned to the material plane.
The surrounding scenes returned to reality from a blurred and distorted state, and in the eyes of others, the six Dane seemed to appear out of thin air.
After returning to the real world, Dane will be able to see the scene in front of him clearly - this is a road east of the central square of Rotten Wolf Town, only about 400 soldiers of White Wolf Castle are left, in the middle of the road Set up a defense line, facing the impact of at least twice as many demons.
And the most impactful thing is that huge demon.
"Heavy War Demon, my God..." Easterlin was taken aback, he knew this kind of demon!
Everyone's faces were solemn, and the other elves also knew the horror of this demon from the teachings of the temple and the inheritance of knowledge. Although it was the first time for Dane to see it, the huge city of the heavy armored war demon The body that can be compared with the mammoth man, as well as the strong armor besides the strong body, the ferocious face, and the pair of demon horns, all make people can clearly feel the powerful strength of this demon.
Dane saw Patience, this woman was trying her best to deal with the devil, the arrow in her hand had become a little soft, from her gradually slowing down movement, and her limping right leg , it was obvious that she was on the verge of exhaustion. And the reason why she can still persevere in the battle with the heavy-armored war demon, and dragging a wounded leg in the battle of Zhou Xuan, she can still open some distance from time to time and shoot a few bows and arrows, which is different from Zhou's surroundings. The help of the soldiers is not unrelated.
More than a dozen rangers were behind Patience to provide long-range support. At the same time, almost three teams, more than 30 heavy-armored white wolf guards, also formed a battle formation to resist the demon.
Dane saw with his own eyes that when the War Demon swung a heavy hammer, the soldiers did not react in time, and only one soldier raised his shield. However, even though the shield blocked the place where the heavy hammer fell, the white wolf soldier was still unable to withstand such a huge force. First, his arm was broken, and then the deformed steel shield pressed on his body, and then a heroic soldier died. , the flesh and blood, the iron armor and shield on his body were smashed under the huge force, and they were mixed together. The death was extremely miserable and the scene was extremely bloody.
This kind of resistance involving ordinary soldiers is very difficult. Reloading the mighty power of the War Demon, he swung the flaming hammer, which made the White Wolf Guards who were close to him feel quite uncomfortable. When the hammer comes down, unless you can dodge it, or if there are three heavy warriors who can react at the same time and use their shields to support it, no matter who gets hit, you will be seriously injured, or even smashed into meatloaf fate.
However, the soldiers can pose little threat to it. The size of a human being is about a little higher than the demon's knees, and the warhammer in the hands of the White Wolf Guard, with enough force to smash the head of a wild boar, hit the demon's body, but it was difficult to pose any threat. There were also quite a few arrows stuck in the demon's body, but most of them were due to Patience. For other rangers, bows and arrows are not even capable of breaking through the demon's armor. Even if they shoot into its body, it is difficult to cause any direct damage.
What's more, Dane also keenly observed a detail—the rangers had very few arrows behind them, and many of them had even emptied their quiver. Only Patience had a good reserve of arrows, probably many Contributed by Ranger. And those rangers who lost their arrows and ammunition had to draw out their scimitars and participated in the front line, fighting the demons hand to hand.
This made Dane feel bad. He took a rough look, and there should have been a full staff of sixty rangers, but now there seemed to be only about forty people left. These elite rangers are all treasures in his heart. The trained sentries are much worse than these elites from Nancy's royal court. How can he not be angry when he is forced to fight hand-to-hand and so many die?
"What is his challenge level?" Dane asked, while tightening the weapon in his hand.
Easterling collected himself and said, "I'm afraid it will exceed the thirteenth level, or even the fourteenth level."
That is almost at the same level of strength as that general of Morno. If it weren't for this powerful demon, his brain is not very good, he can't cooperate with his demon army, let alone command, otherwise, Patience's army would have collapsed long ago, and she would be able to build a line of defense here in her turn , can a group of soldiers be surrounded and beaten, and Patience shoot from a distance
Dane stroked the saber, and took steps towards the heavily armored war demon.
"Dane! Be careful! It's too strong!" Fal'o reminded worriedly.
Dane didn't turn his head back: "Then kill it too. Kexier, protect the four casters, and you four will deal with it with me. Damn it!" Finally, he cursed.
Dane hadn't thought of going head-to-head with a heavy armored warrior with almost fourteen challenge levels, that would be too exciting. However, if there are four spellcasters behind him as support, and there are two priests who are good at using magic in the field of goodness to help him, he will feel more confident.
The footsteps moved faster, and the divine light descended. The divine energy and the power of the bull brought Dane's strength back to normal. At the same time, another purification divine light belonging to Eslor descended on the demon.
The divine magic damage of the sacred attribute is even more powerful than Patience's arrows. Under the light, the devil's skin was burned. In an instant, the demon's attention was attracted to Eslor who released the magic spell.
With huge strides, the demon ignored the threat of Dane who was rushing towards him. Several hoplites who tried to block the way were also swept away by the demon. One of them tried to jump up and hit the demon's chest with a warhammer, and was also killed by the demon. With a slap, he fell to the ground and was dismembered by a group of horned demons.
The reloaded demon started to run gradually, and it was a pair of clothes that wanted to directly kill Eslor, who had just hurt him with the purification magic.
The priestess was a little nervous. She quickly chanted the spell, trying to form a shield in front of her. At the same time, Keshir also picked up the shield and long sword, ready to face the impact of the devil. In addition, the mage Iss Both Trin and Druid Fal'o also released movement-restricting spells - Grease and Entanglement, hoping to slow down the speed of the demon's impact.
With the sound of 'Boom', the reloaded War Demon just froze for a moment, breaking through the protection that Eslael had put in. Immediately afterwards, the greasy technique didn't affect him too much, and the entanglement technique was even more important to him. It was easily broken free under the powerful force.
In an instant, Kexier became the only barrier in front of the casters. The elf knight took a deep breath, and rushed up against the shield emitting holy light.
Douding, who was shining with divine light, also aroused the disgust of the devil. The flaming warhammer smashed over, and under the confrontation between the two, the power of the abyss confronted the holy light.
The templar's combat skills are very good, the shield is very well used, withstand it, use the energy of the holy light to avoid the damage of the abyss flame, and then rely on the excellent technique of unloading the force to reduce the impact on itself. All of these are impeccable, worthy of being the priest instructors of the second-level monastery, but the power gap between them is too large. It is conservatively estimated that the power attribute of the heavy armored war demon is at least 30 points, about 34 To thirty-five or so, this is not what Kexier can bear.
The shield was blown away, and the blood-spitting Templar lay on the ground six or seven meters away, while the heavy-armed War Demon raised his hammer and swept towards the spellcasters who were not far away.
At a critical moment, a sword protruded from the demon's chest, and the owner of the blade belonged to Dane who was ignored by the demon!
When the devil charged, Dane had a chance to stand in front of him. But he did not choose to do so. It was too difficult to resist directly, and the most important thing was that the demon was attracted by the power of the holy light, giving Dane a chance to go around.
It's not that he didn't think about the comfort of the five elves. These are the five very important figures in Aurelia, and Dane certainly doesn't want to see them fall into danger. However, strategy is sometimes more important than strength in things like fighting. The success rate of frontal resistance is low, and the battle will be dragged into what kind of situation. It is better to choose to detour and look for a one-shot decision. Chance.
It was under such thoughts that Dane did it cold-bloodedly.
Jumping up from behind, he pierced the demon's back with the blood of the earth long knife. Although he is in a weak state at the moment, with the blessing of two divine arts, his current strength attribute is also about twenty-six or seven points. Although there is still a big gap compared with the devil, it is enough to cause fatal damage hurt.
Dane's knife was absolutely fatal. He could feel that the moment the long knife stabbed in, it must have pierced the devil's heart. Most creatures—even demons—have a pierced heart and no way out.
But it hasn't died yet, and while its powerful vitality is passing away, it also inspires its final ferocity. With a sudden swing of his elbow, Dane, who was hanging on his back before he could get off, suffered a severe blow to the head. The huge force instantly beat him to the point of bleeding, and he flew out, falling into a coma before landing.
The demon who knocked Dane away seemed to have used up most of his strength, and the pain of being pierced through his heart was tormenting him. It staggered two steps, its scarlet eyes were a little blurred, looking at the four elf casters not far away, as if it wanted to rush up and kill them. But in the end, it still failed to achieve this goal. The next moment, it was enveloped by magical missiles flying all over the sky. This was a missile storm from the high-level conjurer Easterling.
The last trace of life was ended by the missile storm, and the morale-boosting army of White Wolf Castle was finally able to sound the clarion call for counterattack. At the same time, as a trading town, in addition to merchants, there are also many caravan guards and mercenaries who hang out in Rotten Wolf Town all year round. When these forces also joined the battle, when the two portals were all destroyed and could no longer be replenished, and the high-level demons were also beheaded, this conspiracy that descended on Rotten Wolf Town The crisis finally ended with the smell of sulfur everywhere.
