Summoning the Holy Sword

Chapter 33: Darkness Returns (II)

Collend stared gloomily at the crystal ball in front of him. In the image of the crystal ball, he could clearly see the war between water and fire. The innate confrontation made those fire elemental creatures that they summoned almost unwilling to obey its command, but rushed directly to the natural enemy in front of them. But now, Collend was no longer angry at the chaotic surnames of these **** elemental creatures. Instead, the Lich felt incredulous doubts and shocks.

Is the other party so well prepared? !!

Although after stealing the illusionary key from the Burning Plains, Collend was already prepared for the other party to respond. After all, he was able to steal the illusionary key, and also started the summoning stone to himself. Caused a little trouble, which is enough to show that his enemies are aware of the goods. The other party stole the illusionary key, obviously also in order to deal with the fire elemental creatures in the Burning Plains. Collend didn't think about this, but at the time he expected the most, but the opponent is likely to add some elemental mage Use spells to defend against the last name, or summon the same fire elemental creature to attack. Killing Collend couldn't think of it, the other party would also have the illusionary key!

No, if you think about it, since the other party understands the transmission of the elements on their side, it is not a great thing to own the magic key. But how could he summon so many water creatures in such a short time? As a spellcaster, and also a spellcaster specializing in Alchemy, Collend certainly understands how difficult it can be to expand elemental channels. But now, judging by the rising waves in the crystal ball and emerging water creatures, the elemental channel of the opponent is obviously not only very stable, but also very high grade. This made Collende baffled, because in the previous battle report, it was not mentioned at all that the owner of the fortress possessed the Phantom Key of the Sea of ​​Silver, nor did he mention that he summoned water News of elemental creatures coming to fight the undead army. Instead, it was mentioned that there was a fox-eared girl who had a powerful fire elemental surname magic attack. This is why Collend chose to bring the Phantom Key of the Burning Plains and open it here. If the other party There really is a magic key. It is impossible to summon water elemental creatures in previous battles. If he knew that the other party had the key to the Silver Sea, Collend would not be stupid enough to do such a thing!

Could it be that they built the portal together with the Sea of ​​Silver after the previous war? What a joke! Building transport channels is very time consuming, especially the more advanced transport channels take longer, which is why Kolund chose to make up for quality with quantity. If possible, he also hopes to be able to build the highest-level portals all the time, and then summon a fire monster out of it?

The premise is that the rear can patiently give him five to ten years or even more time to toss here, but it is obviously impossible.

"How is this going!"

Collend gazed carefully at the crystal ball in front of him, and after a moment he glanced his head back and looked at Schrodinger, who was restless. The poor vampire mage was now pale and terrified. He could feel the anger and chill emanating from Collend's eyes, but Schrodinger was puzzled by the situation in front of him.

"I, I do n’t know, Lord Collend. I can assure you that in the previous battle with Simon, they did not summon any water creatures to attack, not just me, General Vidal and Sai Commander Born can also prove this, they did not summon water elemental creatures before. "

"Huh! Do you want to say that they have such a high-level portal in just a few days after that ?!"

Looking at the blood-sucking vampires in front of him, Collend snorted, and the trouble of finding this **** now is meaningless. The strengths and weaknesses of the battle lay to a large extent in intelligence gathering. However, Collend's intelligence collection has not been smooth. The scouts he sent to gather intelligence were annihilated, and his own slaves were taken in. Leo's group of dark-skinned degenerates is still silent, and they want to be killed by the other party. Coupled with the apparently strong and extraordinary sacred atmosphere in the opponent's territory, Collend couldn't even send people to approach the fortress castle. So all the information he has obtained so far comes from previous reports of the other side and Simon during the First World War. Originally, Kolund thought that in such a short period of time, even if the other side did not change much. But now it seems that I think too naive.

Although the two sides seem to be evenly matched up to now, Collend is very clear that if he continues this way, the fire element creature on his side will be seriously depleted. Besides, saying that distance is a big problem, the other side The water elemental creatures fight at their doorsteps, and the fire elemental portals on their side are still some distance away from the battlefield. Even if the flow continues to increase, it is definitely not as much as the water elemental creatures summoned at the doorstep. Originally, Kolund intended to use the self-detonation of the fire elemental creatures and the special name of igniting burn to give the other party a surprise, but he did not expect that the other party gave himself a severe blow. If you continue this way, I am afraid that until the channel of the fire element on your side is closed due to exhaustion of energy, it is impossible to break through the ice barrier of the other party.

However, as a commander of the army, this ability must always be met, otherwise the undead would not be so strong and strong.

"Command the Fire Elemental creatures to retreat and regroup, and the First, Third, and Fifth Legions are ready to fight!"

Looking at the sight in the crystal ball, Collend coldly ordered.

The melee ended in an instant.

The beasts of the flames that were fighting the water creatures suddenly turned and left, and the rolling flames couldn't stop disappearing for a while. Soon I saw that there was already some faint bright red, so slowly backed away and left. Stronghold's offensive range. And the water elemental creatures here have no intention of chasing. Rhodes just swung his hands to stop them from pursuing the opportunity. This is also related to the surname of the water elemental creatures. Most of the water elemental creatures are calm and calm, and it is easy to obey. The fire elemental creatures are mostly grumpy, and therefore less vulnerable to indulgence. Soon, the icy cold wind blew through and swept away the fog on the battlefield. All that could be seen were the various scorched explosion traces remaining on the ground, and the shadowy beasts and fantasy batfish shining with cold light. Figure.

The entire fortress's walls were silent, and those soldiers who had never seen it before were stunned by the scene before them. They never thought that they would see such a dreamlike battle here, until the fire elemental creatures receded, and there was a sudden cheer from the entire wall. Although they did not participate in the battle, the scene in front of them still made The soldiers were boiling with blood.

Only Rhodes didn't seem very happy, he looked coldly ahead, then his face changed slightly.

"Lijie, order all spiritual masters to unfold the protective barrier, now, immediately!"

"Okay, Mr. Rhode!"

Hearing Rhode's order, Li Jie also hurriedly turned her head and gave the order to the spiritual masters around her, and after receiving the order, those spiritual masters who had been hiding behind them slowly moved forward, they sang in a low voice. The sacred and complicated runes were connected at this moment, and the sea elves, such as Agarvee, also quietly retreated at this time, but their hands were not idle. I saw the sea elves' tentacles swirling elegantly in the air. , Drawing one blue rune after another. Soon, with the golden soul shining, the translucent barrier flashed on the city wall in turn, the golden runes connected into an invisible but hard protection, protecting everyone in it. On the outer layer of the city wall, smooth and thick ice began to spread rapidly, and within a short time, a new barrier was formed on the outer layer of the city wall.

At the same time, tens of thousands of star-like lights emerged in the darkness across.

That is not the glory of the stars, but the arrows burning the flames of the soul.

"Enemy ————— !!!!!!"

With the shouts of the soldiers, countless arrows swept through the night sky, flying down, as if heavy rain covered the entire fortress wall, and the soldiers held up their shields and hid behind the wall. Hitting the barrier of the soul, the wall of ice, and the shields of the soldiers, many soldiers even had the illusion of being unable to lift their heads for a while. They could not even fight back. They could only hide behind the wall in vain. , Holding up the shield. Waiting for the end of this arrow rain offensive.

Rod stood proudly at the top of the Silver Tower. The arrows were strongly rejected by an invisible force before reaching Rod's side. He held the hilt of his sword and narrowed his eyes to stare into the darkness. There seemed to be nothing there, but Rhodes felt his heart beat faster and he was familiar with it. In the game, this is the normal rhythm when facing the undead's offensive countless times. Now, the whole battle is finally on the track that Rhodes is most familiar with.

The arrow rain lasted for a full five or six minutes before it stopped. If it were a human, there would be no way to persist for so long, but for undead, they need not consider these issues. The crowd looked up in shock. The soldiers who had experienced the first battle with the undead corps were okay. Many of these newcomers were the first to encounter such a terrible arrow rain offensive. For a moment, they even thought that the arrow rain of each other was endless, and they would eventually bury them in it like the waves.

They looked up in horror, and soon heard a dull noise, coming from a distance.

"咚 ......... 咚 ........."

"Boom……………"

It sounded like a dull sound as the object fell to the ground, and it seemed like something giant was moving forward. There was a dead silence at the moment on the entire wall. The soldiers held the long bow and arrows, but could not speak a word. The phantom beasts that had been scattered under the city wall now retreated instinctively and gathered together. The fantasy batfish shook his body uneasily, and issued a sound inaudible to ordinary people to warn of danger.

"—————— Ga !!!!"

The next moment, the pitch turned black.

The deep night was like an invisible monster's open mouth. Everyone saw that the darkness on the sky began to twist, and then turned into a large red fire cloud. Tens of thousands of fire crows screamed to incite their wings to rush forward, and the flames on the ground rose again and burst into the icy waves before them.

But this time, behind them, everyone saw several huge black shadows. They were huge white-bone monsters that were as high as the city walls. They held the warhammer in their hands and walked forward slowly and steadfastly. On their shoulders, they could see flat steel plates forged platforms. The time has been completely unfolded, with the light of the fire, you can even see the light crossbow arrows arranged above, as well as the black ghouls and skeleton warriors. Such a top-heavy existence, in principle, requires only one step to fall directly to the ground because of loss of balance. But Rhodes knew it was too funny to talk about science in this world.

"The holy spirit is on! What is it !!!"

Seeing this scene in front of him, many soldiers screamed in horror. They even retreated involuntarily, for a while they didn't know what to do.

But at this time, the undead army's offensive had already begun.

The flame and ice collided again. This time, the fire elemental creatures that gathered all the powers were finally able to tie with the water elemental creatures of Rhodes, and at this time, dozens of skeleton trolls came forward. Then, they took a steady and determined step forward slowly, and then the skeleton trolls stood up.

"Oh!"

A crossbow was launched from the bone troll's shoulder in this way, and they hit the hard cold wall and fell into it. But these crossbows are not just as simple as attacking the city walls. Under the light of the fire, you can clearly see behind these crossbows, which are connected by dark and hard ropes.

"Cut the ropes, fast! Burn them !!!"

Seeing these ropes, even the idiot soldiers knew what was going to happen. Soon, the officers were angrily ordering their troops to cut down the ropes. But at this moment, another wave of arrow rain flew by, squeezing the soldiers down again. At the same time, I saw those dark, skinny ghouls climbing the rope like a sensitive monkey, as if a black ghost ran straight down the rope!

The battle finally started at this moment.
