Twenty Sided Dice

? The fire element lowered his body under Siegel's order and ran over to the ground. It was too soon to say, and it charged into the pursuers with speed and agility that the Orcs could not believe. Facing the axe thrown by the orcs, the fire element volleyed with one hand, switched hands from behind his head, drew an arc in the air, and threw it back with the other hand. Even so, it still has two hands free to attack. One of them wrapped around the orc's wrist, and the other caught the falling short sword. The belly was pierced by the dagger while the orc who had been robbed of the weapon was still screaming at the burns on his hand.

The orcs cheered up and shouted the name of the Beastmaster God. Their blood rushes, their muscles swell and their skin hardens. With the power of rage, these orcs are faster and more aggressive. They rounded up the fire elementals, beating the flames with steel.

The fire element jumped up and easily jumped out of the siege circle. It twisted its body roughly in the air, taking advantage of its four hands, four feet and one tail, and attacked all orcs at the same time. But unlike the one-on-one offensive just now, the current behavior means more to get rid of the siege and does not focus on damage. The dwarf's infantry fighting skills do not have this kind of jumping away, but the martial skills on the hands and feet are the same.

With just one mistake, the fire element has enough space to move around. With a movement speed that exceeds that of the orcs, it has been making circular movements around the opponent, facing one enemy at a time as much as possible, and then giving full play to the advantages of multiple hands and multiple legs. For a time, the flames flew with the arms, the broken weapons and blood sprayed in the air, and many were ignited before they landed. The five orcs rushing to the front were strangled by the fire element like this, and their record was only to leave seven or eight wounds on it.

Siegel assessed the combat effectiveness of the Fire Elemental from a distance. The effect is much better than the standard elemental summoning spell. The flame weapon enhances the size and combat power of the element, and the memory brand strengthens the martial arts of the summoned creature. However, when the fire element uses dwarf combat skills, stagnation and errors inevitably appear, which reduces the defense ability of the fire element to some extent. This will be the next step in the direction of improvement, but so far Fire Elemental is doing just fine.

Until the second wave of orcs chased up. They saw the situation here from a distance from the hillside. After all, the light of the fire element illuminated the battlefield, so striking in the darkest time before dawn. Impossible to see clearly. When the orcs were ready, they acted together. They did not choose to melee the fire element, and they all took out throwing weapons, including throwing axes, javelins, daggers, and so on. Orcs throw at the same time. There were four rounds in total.

The fire element tried to dodge and move, but the long-range weapons that formed the battle were difficult to completely avoid. Without the protection of armor, it is easy to be suppressed under the offensive of ranged weapons, and the special structure of elemental creatures is difficult to have suitable armor available. Only some of the protective enchantments that can be cast on items are suitable for elemental creatures. But it's too late under the current circumstances -- and it will affect the results of Siegel's test of the elemental's abilities.

Through observation, Siegel further understood the strengths and weaknesses of his spell, and then issued an order to assault. The fire element compresses itself as much as possible to reduce the chance of being attacked, and then approaches the enemy with the fastest speed. It trades damage for damage and pursues the fastest killing speed. The metal weapon and the flame body collided rapidly in the air, making a harsh sound. The howls of fire elements and orcs came one after another, and the mountain road continued to erupt in all directions, making people dizzy.

Siegel was not idle either, he released energy missile spells from a distance. Attack enemies who try to bypass the battlefield. Unlike arrows that will slow down after being shot, the purple-red light **** still maintain their initial power across a distance of tens of meters, and they hit the orcs as accurately as they have eyes. Instead of concentrating on killing an orc, Siegel spreads the damage evenly, allowing the energy missiles to spread out, inflicting as many serious casualties as possible.

Due to the limitation of the range, the orcs had no good way to take the mage for a while, so they did their best to eliminate the fire element blocking the road. After paying more than 20 new deaths, the large fire element warrior finally couldn't bear the damage and collapsed in mid-air. There are still seven orcs who have maintained their fighting power on the mountain road. They put out the flames on each other, gasping for breath, looking at the mage angrily. If it wasn't for the excessive physical strength consumed by the chasing team, they wouldn't have paid such a large casualty.

Siegel stood in the middle of the road. Give them a small smile. The staff crossed a mysterious arc in the air, and another identical fire element was created out of thin air. This is naturally not summoned, it is just an illusion. The breakout battle has just begun, and he still has to save his physical strength.

Seeing the fire element reappearing, the orcs looked at each other in dismay. Since he had already experienced a battle, his body had also reached its limit. So the power of rage fades from them. The orcs felt very weak and did not feel confident in defeating the second fire elemental.

With a wave of Siegel's hand, the Fire Elemental Illusion rushed forward under his command. At the same time, the mage recited fear spells, using the power of magic to further reduce the will of the orcs to fight. This tactic really paid off. The chasing soldiers turned around and fled backwards, abandoning their severely wounded companions who were still crying on the ground.

The counterattack is enough, the mage ordered the fire element to defend on the mountain road, and he quickly turned around and left. The orcs will surely send more elite warriors, and perhaps a shaman to follow. Even without the power of witchcraft, orc armored warriors and elite archers are still a very deadly combination.

But Siegel had bought enough time for the civilians to pass the narrow line of defense laid out by the Paladins.

According to the order of Earl Todd, the narrow path left five paladins and two priests as the main force, and more than 20 mercenaries also stayed. The Count offered them a reward of 100 gold coins, half of which would be paid to their trusted friends on the spot, and the remaining half would be distributed after the mercenaries stood firm for four hours. If they can come back alive, they will send it to themselves, and if they are unfortunately killed, they will still be given to their friends. Each mercenary group has one or two people who can entrust the funeral. The mercenaries weighed the difficulty of the battle and thought the price was reasonable, so they stayed.

They all watched as Siegel blocked the pursuers at the back of the line, cheering for the mage as he passed by. A daring mercenary approached and asked Siegel to cast spells for them.

"My offensive spells can't last for four hours." Siegel said honestly: "The same is true for buffs. The only thing that can last is illusion, but what kind of illusion do you need to support?"

The mercenaries looked at each other, they didn't know anything about spells.

Siegel took a closer look at the surrounding environment and couldn't think of a good place to cast the illusion. This was originally a narrow road in the valley, and more than half of the space was blocked by temporary obstacles. One side of the road is a steep mountain wall protruding outwards, which is difficult to climb; the other side is a sloping gravel slope. If you step on it accidentally, it is likely to roll down and fall off the cliff.

In the eyes of everyone's expectations, the mage thought of an idea. His spells were of little help in combat, but at least they could try to cover their retreat. He took the mercenary's dagger, and cast a conditional-triggered sound illusion on it—Magic Mouth.

In some places, that's the kind of spell that someone turns to make a sound.

"Remember, when you're going to retreat, put this dagger into the entity. It doesn't matter if it's a scabbard or a corpse, so that the spell can be triggered. It's a very vivid orc roar that can make a lot of noise. Call, let them retreat."

"Does this work?"

"It will be useful," Siegel replied with a smile: "At least it can make them confused for a moment." Then, he patted the mercenaries on the shoulder and told them the biggest truth of the battle: "Remember, always follow up. The priests of the Temple of Dawn, they are the true guardians."

Janet was waiting for him in the line, the two walking side by side. A group of people moved fast on the mountain road, struggling to survive in the increasingly heavier air. If you look back, you can see a leaden-grey cloud on the north side of the Walled Mountains, which not even the rising golden sun can illuminate. At this time, even ordinary people without magic sensitive constitution began to feel depressed and irritable in their hearts, trying their best to stay away from the dangerous mountain area. No one dared to rest at this time, not even time to stop to eat. Elderly people and children with poor physical strength were taken care of in turns, and the knights separated their horses and carried the old and the weak. Under the command of Sir Bill, Evan and Siegel took the lead and began to distribute dry food, so that everyone could barely fill their stomachs while marching. At this time, you can't pay attention to eating hot and strong, and it's good to be able to swallow something cooked.

Originally, the team was still marching in the morning sun~www.wuxiaspot.com~ but by noon, the surroundings were completely plunged into darkness. The northern cloud covered the sun like a cover, and everyone had the illusion that night had come early. The mage looked up to the sky, using the ability of spiritual vision to observe those dark clouds. Sure enough, countless resentful spirits hid in it, entangled, bitten and scuffled with each other, constantly devouring the same kind and growing. In the process, a large amount of magical energy escapes, forming leaping ball lightning in the sky. But the lightning, like the resentful spirit, was bound within the range of the dark cloud and could not escape.

In the afternoon, the dark clouds suddenly dissipated, and countless resentful spirits swooped down, mixed with ball lightning, and attacked the creatures on the mountain together. At this time, whether it was orcs or half-orcs, pine cypresses or moss, they were all attacked indiscriminately. Even the stone towers of the Black Blood Castle trembled under the raging power of this force. This is the place of death that the prophecy speaks of. Siegel looked back, thinking all the time in his heart, what does it mean to die and then live?

In his heart, there was an almost diabolical thought: His Royal Highness missed all the prophecies, neither retreated in the face of plague, nor advanced in the face of darkness, nor did he die, so he would lose the chance to "live later"?

What impact will a prince without "vitality" have on the future of the Starry Kingdom?

His eyes moved to Evan. (To be continued.)
