Chapter 494: Ashes
When it comes to using the air force against a large number of ground forces, the most efficient way is naturally to use bombing, and before the crossing, although Leo was not a military enthusiast, he had heard of carpet bombing. It is not unthinkable to let the fighter planes use bombing to deal with the enemy on the ground, but it is really difficult to do.
The research on gunpowder in this world is far from that of the society before the crossing, the lethal bombs are bulky, not to mention that the target is still very large, not to mention the problem of the load of fighters, it is easy to be exploded by the opponent's long-range attack when delivering them, which makes the bombing difficult to implement, and the magic of this world is much stronger than any interceptor missile in terms of accuracy.
Gunpowder bombs don't work, magic bombs can't do it even more, the time when the bomb falls from a high altitude is enough for a mage to use interference to detonate it, a hundred magic bombs can be scrapped by a high-level mage, maybe you can say that adding materials to the magic bomb to resist magic interference and burning a magic circle with the same effect, but the result of this is to increase its cost by at least thirty times, as a consumable xìng, who will burn that money if it is not necessary?
After Leo and Mecatok discussed, they had to replace the light machine gun on the fighter with a magic cannon, so that although the lethality was reduced a lot, the cost was saved, and it was a good way to make up for the lack of firepower with quantity, not to mention that the fighter could be used all the time as long as it was not damaged.
Having lost three thousand intermediate law system undead at once, Marduke's face was very unsightly, and he didn't expect that the other party would still have this hand It was his mistake.
In order to defend the Hand of Tyr, those gnomes were willing to pay for it, and they didn't know how much benefit the Blood Crusaders had given them to work so hard, but if they thought that this would prevent the Scourge from taking the Hand of Tyr, it would be a big mistake.
With a buzzing roar, the five thousand skeleton fighters circled in the air and launched a second air strike, and the glowing magic bullets poured down again, and the Scourge troops, who had been prepared for their attacks, immediately launched a counterattack after holding up the magic shield.
Thousands of magical attacks struck towards the roaring skeleton fighter, which was even more powerful than the skeleton fighter that had air superiority, and the battle between the undead of the law system and the skeleton fighter became fierce in an instant.
The magic light bullets that fell from the sky struck the magic shield held up by the undead, and the strength of the seven thousand intermediate undead with high-level strength was extraordinary after all, and the attack of the skeleton fighter failed to break through their defenses.
The Skeleton Fighter's attack did not cause any damage to the Undead Scourge, and similarly, the Scourge of the Undead did not have any lethal effect, because the anti-magic shields had already protected the Skeleton Fighter when the Undead fought back.
The result of the second meeting between the two sides is helpless.
Using two thousand intermediate undead to defend the other five thousand and bombarding the same number of skeleton fighters, even if I have air superiority, I still only fight half a catty, I underestimate them.
Leo had to admit that the Scourge had used their numerical superiority to wipe out their air supremacy, and the presence of the spellcasters made the war in this world very different from the society before the time crossing, at least with their ground forces, they were not helpless in the face of air strikes.
"I have too few fighters to hold off their spellcasters, and the rest is up to you."
Leo said to Scarlett with a regretful face, originally he thought that it would not be too difficult to deal with the 100,000 mid-level undead of the Scourge Legion after occupying air supremacy, but now it seems that the war is not as simple as he imagined.
"You've done enough, it's time for us to help."
Scarlett said as she raised the sword of Ashkandi in the air, and in the face of the undead Scourge female knight, who was already less than twenty meters away from the defense line, she instigated her military horse to rush forward.
"For justice!"
The knightess shouted and swung her greatsword, and a crusader-shaped light rang out, and the three ghouls who lungled at her were slashed into pieces by the crusader blow, and their corpses burned violently in the blazing light, but in the blink of an eye, they were already reduced to ashes.
The power of the holy light erupted from the sword of Ashkandi, which was emitted by Scarlett's real power, was not something that the intermediate undead could compete with, and the greatsword wrapped in the holy light brought out traces of the debut gold in the undead catastrophe, and the sword of Ashkandi, which could be exerted by Scarlett's real power, made Scarlett's subordinates have no enemies, and they were really invincible, and the great sword was cut into two pieces by the undead disaster, and their bodies were also purified into piles of ashes under the holy light.
Leo was extremely painful to see this scene, these are all corpses, corpses that can increase the number of his corpses, and with the strength of a middle-level undead, one corpse can increase the number of corpses by one, which can be worth nearly twenty corpses of low-level undead. For Leo, who is now in dire need of corpses to expand his army of skeleton machines, he only has two words to describe a loser.
Can you kill less and leave me more corpses, this ruined?
It was a pity for Leo to be purified by Scarlett's corpse, while the Blood Crusader and the black-clothed Marduk were shocked, and when they killed the undead, the powerful power of the Holy Light completely purified their corpses, leaving behind not rotting corpses and broken bones but piles of ashes, this familiar scene evoked countless people's memories.
"Ash ......"
The Blood Crusaders murmured in a low voice, and they looked at Scarlett, who was invincible in the scourge of the undead, and the female knight wrapped in the dazzling holy light gradually merged with a figure in their hearts.
When the former heroes became the Lich King's executioners who slaughtered them, when their morale was low at the hands of the newly defeated Ebon Fortress, and when they were in desperate need of new spiritual sustenance, a hero stepped forward at the right time, allowing them to find the straw that saved their lives like drowning people.
The Blood Crusaders, including Marlan, looked at Scarlett with a feverish gaze, and the heroic female knight did the right thing at the right time, and she easily won the approval of the Blood Sè Crusaders.
Seeing the anomaly of the Blood Sè Crusaders, Leo slapped his forehead sharply, and he understood why Scarlett had to go to great lengths to cleanse the corpses of the undead with holy light when she killed them.
This stupid girl, are you doing this to help me better achieve the goal of controlling the blood sè crusade?
But why didn't you tell me before you did it because I was afraid that I wouldn't want you to bother with it?
Knowing Scarlett's intentions, Leo looked at the female knight with a little tenderness in his eyes.
Compared to Leo and the Bloody Crusaders, the Scourge Legion's Marduk can only be described as angry.
"What does that woman want to do, who does she think she is?"
When Scarlett's army slaughtered the first group of mid-level undead with a team of 10,000 people, the black-clad Maduk erupted, and the piles of ashes purified by the Holy Light where the female knight passed gave him a very bad memory.
"Kill that woman, kill that woman at all costs, and never let a second Ash Lord appear in the human race.
It took a lot of effort for the Scourge to completely corrupt Mograine, and now in the hands of Tyr, there is a female paladin who seems to be able to succeed the Ash Lord, how can Marduk, who is a member of the Scourge Legion, tolerate it?
The black-clothed Marduk already knew that Scarlett's strength was only epic through some inspection, which meant that she had not really grown up yet, and this female paladin who was qualified to become the second Ash Lord was not strong at this time, but she had already shown that she was a threat to the Scourge Legion.
This woman who could cause great trouble to the Scourge in the future must be nipped in the bud.
The black-clothed Marduk made up his mind, and at this time, he didn't care about the plan he had set before the war to slowly consume the opponent, and directly issued an order to his subordinates to attack, in the current Marduk's opinion, killing Scarlett is more important than capturing the hands of Tyr.
The buzzing roar came from far and near, and a huge group of five thousand skeleton fighters struck again, but this time the mages of the Scourge Legion ignored them, except for the two thousand intermediate law undead who maintained the magic shield, the rest of the five thousand undead all focused on Scarlett, and the gorgeous magic engulfed the female knight's figure in an instant.
This sudden change frightened Leo for a moment, and the spells cast by the five thousand intermediate undead instantly exploded, and in the case of defenselessness, Leo asked himself that he would never be able to resist, what would happen to Scarlett under such an attack?
Leo's heart suddenly rose to his throat, and if Scarlett had an accident, he would go on the spot.
Under such a spell bombardment, the woman must have been killed.
Marduk breathed a sigh of relief when Scarlett's figure was engulfed in magic, and at his signal, a group of Death Knights rushed towards Scarlett's location, their purpose was to snatch the corpse without asking if it was known.
The corpse of a paladin with great potential like Scarlett, the Scourge Legion will never let go, and it won't take long for the death knight created by such a paladin to be able to form combat power, and it grows very quickly. In Marduk's opinion, Scarlett, who has the potential to succeed the Ash Lord, would not be a problem at all if she joined the Death Knights of the Scourgeon Legion and became another leader-level powerhouse of the Knights of the Black Blade.
"Despicable and evil undead scourge, I will kill you."
The Bloody Crusaders rushed forward with a scolding of rage, and when the magic of the Scourge engulfed Scarlett's figure, the Bloody Crusaders, who had already regarded the female knight as a new pillar, went berserk, driven by anger, their low morale and exhausted body were completely unable to hinder their combat power, and they were going to vent their anger on the Scourge Legion now.
Just as the two sides were about to break out into a decisive and fierce battle, the dazzling holy light tore through the brilliance of magic, and Scarlett, armed with the sword of Ashkandi and wearing the armor of judgment, rushed out of it, and a spherical golden shield protected her.
"Oh, damn the Holy Shield!" Marduk was frustrated that with the Judgment Armor and the Holy Shield to protect against the undead, the magical attack did not hurt Scarlett in the slightest.
"The Light will turn into an unbreakable shield to protect every believer who has devout faith."
Scarlett said as the sword of Ashkandi drew a golden trail in the air, and the two death knights were split in half under the sword, and the blazing golden light quickly reduced their bodies to a pile of ashes.
"All dark and fallen beings will be purified of the undead of the Scourge Legion, and this is where you belong."!
