Even the fireball technique released by the mage apprentices, which has been tempered by the Ernfas Empire for countless years, is worthy of its name!
The fire element condensed into the limit exploded directly, and the raging and violent flame fire dragon crazily swept all the obstacles within 15 meters around. The scorching temperature was as high as thousands, and the skeleton warriors in the center were directly burned to bone meal!
Even more than 30 meters away from the explosion point of the fireball, the scorching air waves mixed with flames were still rolling among the skeletons.
A group of skeleton warriors and skeleton soldiers were blown away one after another.
Many skeleton warriors were instantly turned into bone powder by the high temperature contained in the flames of the air wave. Even the tattered ancient armor couldn't resist it at all, and it would rustle into powder in the high temperature. fall down.
Throwing fireballs down one after another, at least thousands of skeleton warriors were directly killed.
This shows the power of spells.
However, after the mage apprentices released all 3 fireballs today, they had no choice but to back up and hand over their casting positions to the Vikia archers behind them.
Although the spells are powerful, the spell slots limit the number of times they can cast spells.
Or staying power.
As long as a crossbowman has arrows and physical strength, he can shoot unlimited times.
The mages are different. There is a fixed number of spell slots every day. After releasing the restricted spells in the spell slots, they can only leave the field sadly.
In fact, in large-scale battles, most long-range kills are still caused by crossbowmen.
As for the mage, it will only appear in strategic positions.
For example, it is about to break through a certain point of the enemy's defense, or to launch a magic attack on the enemy's elite troops.
Therefore, in ordinary battle scenes, mages will never waste their precious spell slots. After all, when all the spells contained in the spell slots fail, the only thing left may be a cowardly body and a more decorative one. Wooden sticks, even farmers can't beat melee.
Even mages or archmages with more spell slots and more powerful spells will not take the risk easily and spend all the spells in their spell slots, leaving a few to save their lives.
The same is true for these mage apprentices.
Although the range-killing fireball technique has been used up, they still have the magic bullet technique.
This is a single spell.
The power is like a two-handed sledgehammer.
However, because the release distance is relatively short, only about 50 meters, so the mage apprentices do not plan to release it, and it is more wise to reserve it and prepare to attack enemies that may appear at the city walls or gates.
Kant also understood this point, but looking at the skeleton warrior who was still like an ant, his face was depressed.
The empty space left by the fireball burst has been refilled.
An astonishing number of Skeleton Soldiers and Skeleton Warriors all surged out of the death sky, and it is impossible to know how many there are, and the higher-level Skeleton Cavalry and Death Knights have not yet appeared.
Even other undead arms have not yet appeared.
What Kant is facing now may only be the tip of the iceberg of the undead army.
The endless natural disaster of death is to crush the enemy troops with absolute numbers.
"I can only stick to it."
Kant looked stern.
But in his heart, he suddenly felt a little uncertain. He didn't know how many undead armies there were in the death scene, and whether it was really endless and could crush the entire sentry oasis.
The skeleton warriors that have been broken into bones are almost in piles.
Even in the lake, there are many skeletons floating around.
As for the three directions of east, west, south, skeleton warriors and skeleton soldiers are mixed, they have come to the bottom of the cliff, and they are using the rotten weapons in their hands to beat the rock formation in vain, knocking out small white marks.
But what's more, their rotten weapons directly shattered and shattered, making these skeletons stand still in place.
They have no siege weapons.
There are no climbing tools or the ability to go directly to the city wall!
Therefore, the main direction of the attack of these undeads was automatically shifted from the north side to the southeast side when the skeleton warriors fell down.
Because on the southeast sides, there are exactly 5 meters wide and 20 meters long ramps connecting the city gates!
"coming."
When Kant heard the rapid sound of horseshoes, he understood it in his heart.
A desert bandit acting as an orderly came quickly on horseback, threw away the reins in his hand, quickly turned off his horse, rushed up the stairs of the city wall and came in front of Kant, and Sushenghui reported: "My lord, the city gate was attacked by the enemy. Focus on attacking!"
"knew."
Kant nodded calmly.
At the same time, he asked the desert robber next to him, "Which city gate is Manid currently stationed at?"
"East Gate!" Someone answered immediately.
"Um."
Kant nodded and ordered: "Tell him to stick to the east gate."
"Yes!" The desert robber who answered nodded, turned and left.
Kant pondered slightly, then stepped forward, and at the same time turned his head to Bundak and said, "Let's go to the south gate."
"Understood." Bandak followed.
The current "Drehem" castle has only two passages, the south gate and the east gate, which can be said to be the only two points in the castle that may be breached. Of course, it needs to be paid attention to.
However, there are also differences between the two gates.
The interior of the east gate belongs to the military management area, and there are also a group of reinforcement troops stationed at any time.
Manid is in charge of that part, and can also make up for his weakness in commanding battles, so Kant asked him to just stick to it and not be broken through, and he also brought him the strange thing that can summon elemental giants on the 2 pages beforehand.
The south gate is different.
This city gate belongs to the city gate for business and civilians to enter and exit, so there are few troops stationed. It is necessary to arrange troops to garrison in advance. In case of emergency, it is necessary to directly lead troops to provide reinforcements.
Let Bundak go to garrison the south gate, and Kant also intends to use his personal strength.
After all, Bundak is now.
It can be regarded as the strongest!
Even Kant, in fact, cannot compare with this apostle of the underworld.
Whether it's individual combat power or summoning a team of underworld invaders, they can block the intrusion of those undead, and perhaps create the illusion of weak defense, so that the extraordinary power of those undead will suffer a life-threatening loss!
Quickly transfer to the south gate.
On the city wall, crossbowmen are relying on towers and arrow towers to shoot wantonly.
At the same time, there were violent slapping and clanging sounds at the city gate, as if countless people outside were struggling to get in, but there was also a strange crisp sound mixed with that fierce sound.
Kant narrowed his eyes, of course he could hear the source of the crisp sound.
It was clearly the sound of bones breaking!
Quickly walk up to the city gate and follow the previously built platform to the gate of Wengcheng. The 5-meter-wide and 20-meter-long ramp outside is already full of skeleton warriors.
They are holding decaying lances or swords, and wearing decaying armor in the style of ancient times.
They are rushing towards the gate of the city.
Those skeleton warriors who have already touched the city gate are using the weapons in their hands to knock heavily on the well-made and solid wooden door, including outside the wooden door, there is a layer of iron bars as thick as a thumb, welded iron bars The door was the source of the sound.
It's just that this group of skeletons can't cause any damage to the city gate at all, maybe they can only add a few traces. Their rotten weapons can't knock on the iron gate, even the Atsugi gate!
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—"
At the city gate, Swadian crossbowmen and Vikir archers were still shooting arrows.
Dark shadows fell down like a torrential rain, and on the ramp, a large number of skeleton warriors fell down. Almost every moment, an empty ramp appeared, which was immediately filled by skeleton warriors coming up from behind.
The crossbowmen stationed at the gate of the city are all elite.
Also includes 2 Archmages who have not yet been shot.
Although the rapid fire of 50 Vikia sharpshooters is not as good as that of Ravenston Ranger, but within 20 meters, each arrow hits the forehead of the skull with rapid fire, and there is still no problem.
Coupled with the precise shooting of the Swadian crossbowmen, the scene was once very harmonious.
That's right.
It is very harmonious.
Every time these 50 Vekia marksmen and 30 Swadian crossbowmen shoot, they will always empty the 20-meter ramp in a short time from those skeleton warriors.
Then in a short time, it was refilled by the group of skeleton warriors.
Come and go repeatedly.
The scene is unusually harmonious.
Standing on the top of the gate of the Wengcheng, Kant's face was calm, and his eyes were a little more relaxed.
As piles of scattered bones fell down the slope, the skeletal warriors were hit by precise arrows in the skulls. The danger of the city gate had not yet increased, but he felt that he was still able to handle it with ease.
It was Bandak, who relaxed and said with a smile: "It's very simple."
"yes."
Kant nodded in agreement: "Simple."
However, he still frowned, looking at the skeleton warriors outside who were still full and filling the entire sentry oasis, the corners of his eyes were twitching: "The number of these skeletons must be at least 40,000, right?"
"Well, there may be 50,000. You know, skeletons have no flesh and blood and occupy a small area."
Bandak replied: "Anyway, there are a lot of them."
"Heh." Kant chuckled, but his eyes were a little more depressed: "Then if this group of skeletons focuses on attacking a certain point of us, can they form a bridge laid by bones and rush directly to the city wall?"
"It's...it's hard to say." Bandak's eyes narrowed slightly, and the red light flickered.
It is indeed possible.
The group of gnolls who once crossed the Nalun Desert and almost ran out of fuel were able to break the boat. With such a resolute and resolute attack, they all rushed directly to the city wall and almost defeated Kant's original troops.
What's more, now, those skeleton warriors themselves have no concept of death.
Lay into a wall composed of bones.
Really possible!
Although it is 20 meters, considering the physique of nearly 50,000 skeleton warriors and skeleton soldiers, it seems that it is not so difficult to fill a city wall from low to high to form a slope!
And in the death screen behind, there may be more undead spirits!
