Chapter 856: A Strong Enemy Is Coming!
The situation on the scene changed too quickly, from the griffin swooping down and attacking, the ambusher appearing on the roof, to the griffin knight suddenly being sneak attacked, and the high mage of Runetera Wood Bird suddenly appeared...... In just two or three seconds, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse, which made many people dazzled.
The next moment, the remaining flock of griffons had already flown into the sky, but at this time, there were only six griffons left, and the rest fell into the outpost, most of them were trapped by the magic of the wooden birds and could not fly and fall.
"Brush!"
The griffin that fell to the ground was instead stimulated by its ferocity, its sharp giant beak pecked and bited, raised its claws to grab nearby players, and casually threw it more than ten meters away, and in the blink of an eye, players were killed in seconds, and several white lights lit up.
Steel restraint is a control spell, and with the level of a wooden bird, it is already the limit for the griffin to be unable to stretch its wings for the time being, so these fierce beasts that fell, although their wings were entangled in bright silver metal ribbons, most of their combat effectiveness was not affected.
After a moment of stunnedness, the players were boiling.
"Come on! Kill the griffin! ”
"Don't let them fly, curse with broken tendons, and surround the poisonous poke eyes...... Don't be stunned, big guy, go up and hold it down! ”
"Hey, hey, it's so fierce? Get out of the way and watch Lao Tzu's wax melt potion! ”
……
There are far more players in the outpost than just now, and those who have come from Runetera and the Valley of Refuge in carriages have gathered in the outpost, surrounding the griffons and griffon knights.
"You shit, how dare you attack us! We are the Griffon Knights of the Church of the Celestial Gods...... Ah......h
"The Church of the Celestial Gods will not let you go...... Poof......"
……
The griffin knights shouted endlessly, the level of these guys was estimated to be 43 or 44, and from time to time there were players around them turning into white light, which looked very powerful.
But the players don't care about this: why are they so arrogant when they are surrounded?
"me to death! Don't let any of them go! ”
The team commander said viciously, and soon, a griffin that was shot by a giant crossbow arrow could not support it first, and fell to the ground with a wail, and everyone around received a system prompt to gain combat contribution at the same time.
Now everyone's enthusiasm is higher, all kinds of lights are lit up, all kinds of ultimates are thrown out one after another, griffins and knights do not have boss templates, just relying on a few levels of level advantages, how can hundreds of players be able to round together.
On the top floor of the outpost building, everyone looked down at the scene below, high-fived each other happily, and laughed.
"I said Wood Bird, your magic is getting more and more exquisite, and you haven't even discovered such a good strength as a griffin~" Dai Guang patted the expressionless Wood Bird on the shoulder and laughed.
"You've won the prize, it's just a low-level magic." The bald mage said modestly.
Static force fields can obscure ordinary vision, but they are not 360-degree all-round, and the people inside cannot move around at will, otherwise they will directly expose their figures.
Fortunately, the griffin knights thought that the raid was successful, and the original plan was to be caught off guard by the fork, and they did not waste time to reconnoiter carefully, and Lu Kuan's ambush strategy worked smoothly.
"Don't relax, there should be enemies still coming,"
Lu Kuan reminded everyone: "There may be difficult opponents inside, so pay attention." ”
When everyone heard this, they immediately began to act.
The griffin knights ran away, and there was no point in hiding any more, so everyone scattered and returned to their posts, and the sentry guards hidden in the building also appeared, standing on the walls and towers, and the whole outpost was immediately heavily guarded.
At this time, the battle below was also nearing its end.
The griffin knights who fell into the crowd tactics were killed and wounded, the equipment and gold coins dropped by the knights were scavenged, the griffons were dismembered almost instantly, and the more precious feathers, steel beaks, claws, etc. were collected by the players.
In just two minutes, the griffons had no bones left, and there was nothing to see in the clearing, except for a faint trace of blood.
Several griffons flying in the air witnessed this scene, and no longer had the courage to come down, so they circled around the sky a few times and quickly flew south.
Lu Kuan stood on the roof and watched this scene, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled.
……
Just like Lu Kuan guessed, the Griffin Knights were divided into two groups, and the original plan was to bloom more on the trade route and catch Rune City by surprise - there was no need to confront the guards of Rune City head-on, as long as the caravans lost their sense of security, they would naturally be able to cause huge losses to Rune City.
The Griffin Knights to the south did the same, and after attacking two northbound caravans in succession, news of the caravan being attacked had spread.
Looking down from high in the sky, the red blood stains and staggered corpses on the road were shocking, and the panicked crowd was fleeing north in the direction of the three-way crossing.
The griffons were all smiling, like monkeys, watching the powerless merchants run in all directions, and once the guards were killed, they probably wouldn't be able to kill even a wolf.
Among the griffons, a large griffon, which was significantly larger than its companions, hovered at the front of the group, draped in large red armor and wearing a distinctive half-covered helmet on its head, protecting the griffon's eyes and the weak spots around the beak.
On the back of the great griffin, a tall female knight silently watched below, her heavy helmet obscuring most of her face, revealing only a pair of cold eyes.
This is the trade route of Runeterra?
Commerce is indeed prosperous, but the level of protection is too low...... The lord of Runerue City is not an idiot who only knows how to do business and is ignorant of the dangers in this world......
It's better to meet than to be famous.
The knight thought to herself.
"My lord, there seems to be a situation ahead." Someone next to him reminded in a low voice.
The female knight looked up, and four black shadows flew rapidly towards her, and in a short time everyone could see that they were four griffins.
The two sides quickly met, and after a brief contact, the knights here looked at each other with an incredible expression.
Just with the wind elements that are not in the climate in Rune City, we actually lost nineteen griffins?
How can it be!?
Under careful questioning, everyone felt even more incredible: it turned out that the other party's wind element did not participate in the battle at all, and the knights were ambushed!
"It's impossible to ......," someone subconsciously muttered to himself, saying what everyone was thinking about.
The relaxed atmosphere just now faded with the wind, replaced by solemnity and silence.
Nineteen griffins! That's already a third of the griffin knights of the Church of the Celestial Gods, and there is also a deputy leader among them, according to the description of these surviving fellows, those companions fell into the hands of that group of adventurers, and I am afraid that the bones are long gone.
Everyone quickly figured out that the plan to harass the trade route might have to be changed: with such a heavy loss, just harassing the trade route, how to explain it to the bishop when he returned?
"Let's go."
The female knight whispered, flicked the reins, and the great griffin chirped softly, flapped its wings and flew high, and the people behind followed closely and flew away towards the north.
