Dark Shadow Shrine

Raven is no stranger to bloody battles in the abyss.

This life did not go, the previous life went.

Raven will never forget that desolate land that always smells disgusting and bloody.

At that time, in order to surpass Tinos, Lei Wen did not hesitate to level up like crazy, and finally he was promoted to the sanctuary through the bloody battle in the abyss.

But the abyss of Netherland in front of him made Lei Wen immediately realize that something was wrong.

Taking advantage of the second wave of enemies not coming up, Raven found the Red Knight who was the frontline commander: "What tactics are you going to use next?"

After a little thought, the red knight said: "In my opinion, the combined strength of human soldiers and mages is far inferior to the troops of Baphomet, the king of the Tauren. Therefore, 'undefeated' is more important than 'victory' , I will take flexible defensive measures to delay for 12 hours, waiting for the end of this battle."

Then the Red Knight gave Raven a brief introduction to the defense arrangement. Reasonably allocate long-range firepower, increase the depth of tactics, and strive to use a quagmire-like attack method to ignore the greatest strength characteristics of the Minotaur-type monsters.

After a pause, the red knight asked: "What? Is there something wrong with my strategy?"

"From a strategic point of view, you are absolutely correct. You made the most appropriate judgment based on the strength of both the enemy and us."

Raven's answer made the Red Knight feel very strange, as if his words were full of fog, and the Red Knight tried to use wisdom to see through Raven's seemingly all-knowing head.

Obviously, she failed, shrugged and made a look of listening.

"Did you see the ground that just changed color under your feet? I bet that there was absolutely nothing like that in the Baphomet invasion in history."

"This is?"

"The land of bloody battles in the abyss."

I figured out the key in an instant. A horrifying expectation turned into cold, terrifying drops of water, soaking through the cells of her whole body.

"Could it be..."

"I know you want to use long-range attacks as much as possible to solve everything. In fact, if we don't have the whole army on the ground now, we won't be able to defend for an hour. Because the soul power of the first wave of dead monsters will be quickly brought up by the second wave absorbed by monsters."

Impulsive and reckless and deliberate and desperate charge are two completely different things.

Either way, it takes courage.

This fighting style is not what the Red Knight likes. Although not everything can go as expected, she still hopes to use strategies as much as possible to solve problems.

Happily. Once again, the cruel facts proved that her approach would not work.

This is a world where divine power manifests itself, a world where high-ranking troops beat low-ranking troops regardless of their numbers. No amount of infantry could pile up an invulnerable legendary minotaur.

Similarly, with the characteristics of the abyss and the underworld, soon the spells of the human mage group will not be able to cause damage to those monsters whose magic resistance has increased wildly.

At that time, the weak bronze-level infantry will have to face the thick-skinned and thick-skinned minotaur army.

Pressing it now may be a cruel narrow escape.

If you don't press it for a while, it will be the death of the group.

Without Raven's reminder, maybe the frog was boiled in warm water like this. Slowly cooked to death. He glanced at Raven. The red knight turned on his horse with a vigorous posture.

She held up her lance and shouted loudly: "Soldiers, the situation has changed. The land under your feet has been replaced by an unknown mysterious force with the soil of bloody battles in the abyss. On this land, the victor will gain all the power of the defeated .If we don’t strengthen ourselves, we will be completely swallowed in the end. Come on! Brave warriors, use the blood of the enemy to forge our glory!"

Once the order to attack is given. Then there was a burst of lively, but insubstantial cheers.

No way, most fighters don't understand what a bloody battle in the abyss is.

The red knight's reason seemed a bit far-fetched, it was only the good military discipline of the Arcane Empire that allowed them to obey this order.

Holding a shield and wielding a one-handed sword, the armored swordsman charged forward, almost colliding head-on with the Brezu Demon pouring out of the channel of the plane.

Brezu are one of the mainstream Tanar'ri demons of the Abyss.

Its flesh twitched and writhed under the pain of open sores and discolored skin. A brezu's obnoxiously small body is dotted here and there with small patches of short mane.

Its head resembled a gigantic, disgusting goat's head, with long curved horns, pale, rotting eyes, and tiny needle-like teeth protruding from frothing lips.

Its tail writhed and writhed like a snake. It ends in a mass of twisted, twisted metal spines. Though emaciated in build, this beast wields a gigantic three-pronged spear far beyond its size with terrifying poise and control.

The soldiers of the Arcane Empire who rushed forward were no match for Brezu's Demon. The huge three-pronged spear easily pierced the soldiers' seemingly thick armor. Pierce them to pieces.

The soldiers fell to the ground like cutting wheat, from the time they appeared to the two sides began to fight. In less than five minutes, the commander had filled the third centurion with heartache.

More than two hundred people fell to the ground and died.

There were no wounded, and any fallen soldier would be met with a spiked swipe across the forehead by the brezu's tail.

Soon, the seemingly thin Brezu broke through the trap area and began to enter the flat ground, rushing towards the humans on the second line of defense.

Seeing that many of these people had sword wounds on their bodies, and they were plowed by the mage group with different specialization spells, and they still rushed towards them with a strong vitality, and the morale of the soldiers began to drop. .

At this time, the charge of the Knights began.

Accompanied by the sound of heavy horseshoes like thunder, it was the coordinated attack of the mage group. Almost when the knight group was about to contact the enemy, [Chain Lightning] threw it over like no money.

This is a luxury tactic that only the Arcane Empire period could afford.

The heavy cavalry of the Arcane Empire is also called the Mithril Paladin. These Northland steeds with a small amount of Warcraft blood have a back height of 1.80 meters, an astonishing one-ton load and an ultimate sprint distance of 500 meters.

The knights wore three layers of armor, the innermost layer was thin leather armor, the middle layer was chain mail woven with countless iron rings, and the outermost layer was a full-body armor that was infused with a large amount of mithril and was immune to magic below the third ring.

Even including the weapon and the horse armor that also incorporates mithril, the total weight is nearly 500 kilograms.

So even if their own heavy cavalry were fighting with the enemy, the mage group could still throw low-level spells without any scruples.

The lance of the Mithril Paladin is also specially made. It is different from the later generations who specially made the barrel of the gun very brittle in order to remove the force of the shock, so that it can break while stabbing, so as to prevent the reaction force from getting rid of the knight.

The lance of the Mithril Paladin is stabbing the enemy, and the moment the tip of the lance is impacted, a forward airflow similar to a rocket propeller will burst out from the middle of the lance, causing a second impact on the target. At the same time, the part from the tip of the gun to the middle part will explode, causing three times of damage to the target with high-speed sputtering fragments like a fragmentation grenade.

On the side of the horse's forelegs, there is a lost magic device, as long as the remaining gun barrel is moved over, a new gun head will be automatically installed.

Of course, if you get into close combat. In addition to the saber, there is also a cavalry flail integrated with the arm armor.

Anyway, the Mithril Paladin is a monster armed to the teeth.

Under the impact of the Mithril Paladin led by the Red Knight, the enemy formation was successfully dispersed.

Then the adventurers headed by Tempus rushed up in small groups.

Tempus is undoubtedly the most ferocious, the fastest to charge, and the largest in size, naturally attracting the attention of more than one Brezu.

The god of battle taught them what fighting is.

Tempered combat intuition and combat skills make Tempus's movements extremely concise and deadly.

Obviously, the three three-pronged spears came at almost at the same time, and Tempus was a step ahead of the other party. He smashed the flail over, and first smashed the head of the first Brezu demon. Leaning his left body forward thirty degrees, he dodged the three-pronged spear on the left by a narrow margin. With his right hand, he pulled out the flail and swung it to the right, smashing the right face of the Brezu demon on the right, and he was dead.

This is not over yet, the left hand holding the shield raised, and a shield slammed into the face of the guy on the left. The muscles swelled to the extreme, and the heavy flail flew up again, hitting the head of the left Brezu.

From the eyes of others, it seemed that Tempus had just thrown the shackle three times to get rid of the three demons.

Only those present knew the danger. Tempus only had one piece of rotten leather armor, and it could be said that as long as he hit it, he would be instantly killed, but he used offense instead of defense to directly kill three in an instant.

But the fourth Brezu approached Tempus silently from behind. At this time, his flail had just hit the head of the third one.

The praying mantis catches the cicada and the oriole is behind.

The Brezu demon wanted to take advantage of it, and Raven thought the same.

The specialty of [Shadowless Magical Movement] allows Lei Wen to launch stealth without punishment. This kind of stealth, in which the target's attention has been drawn away, is not difficult for Raven. At the same time that the Brezu Demon stabbed out the three-pronged spear, Raven also rose like a puff of green smoke, completing the acceleration silently.

"Huh?"

"Pfft!"

A cold light flashed across the dagger, like an extremely accurate scalpel, it instantly cut open the carotid artery of the Brezu Demon, and after a drag, it followed the curve of the Blazu Demon’s cervical vertebrae, and transmitted the spine downward. All nerve cords were severed.

There was a piercing sound of breaking wind, and the Brezu Demon's final counterattack struck in an instant, and its tail full of metal spikes suddenly flicked towards Lei Wen.

With Lei Wen's current weak body, he absolutely couldn't bear such a heavy blow.

Lei Wen easily dodged as he had expected.

Without even needing to fight back with Tempus' flail, the brezu was ended by Raven with a dagger attached.

A mysterious force came.

That is far beyond the improvement given to Raven by killing experience.

"This is……"

The fullness of the soul.

Different from the physical improvement brought about by the upgrade of killing experience, this feeling is more like the cells of the whole body are advancing and self-evolving.

No wonder it hinted that there will be an increase or decrease of the soul source. (to be continued ~^~)
