192. Cooperation
Everyone glanced at each other, and they all saw a helpless look in each other's eyes.
Perhaps Cecilia and the others didn't quite understand the meaning of the fear knight's roar, and probably just regarded it as a restraint on the army. But for Harding and Sean, the meaning is extremely obvious.
A well-founded army of ghouls, and an army of ghouls in a mess, are completely two different concepts!
"I guess I can't escape." Harding smiled wryly.
"Seems so." Sean smiled bitterly back, but he did hold the Black King in his hand completely, and the black aura surrounded his body, making him look full of evil.
The others stared at each other a little blankly, not quite sure what Sean and Harding's so-called escape meant. But when it comes to dealing with undead creatures, these two are real experts, so they only need to follow their arrangements and instructions, and they don't need to say anything, so although everyone is a little confused, they don't say anything, but start to distance themselves a little and form a battle formation.
"I can only attack." Sean said in a deep voice, "Harding, are you okay?" ”
"Leave it to me!" Harding laughed and rushed forward, and at his signal, Rottikabas immediately rushed out with Harding.
At this time, the Ghoul Legion was less than sixty meters away from Sean and the others, which was an extremely dangerous position - for the human side. However, all ghouls still suppress their nature. The fact that he never broke away from the formation of the large army was almost a miracle for the ghouls. On the other hand, it also proves the strength of this dreadknight.
In the world of undead creatures. Although the superior can coerce and influence the subordinate and coerce the subordinates, the amount of control they can control has a lot to do with their own mental power. However, this is just the influence of mental coercion, if you want to completely control or even suppress the instinct of the lower undead creatures, you need greater spiritual power, and judging from the strength of this fear knight's mental power, he has at least reached the level of an undead knight.
'M afraid. The reason why it hasn't reached the undead knight yet, it's purely because of the lack of soul energy.
After all, not only has this space completely lost the power of the rules at the moment. This undead spirit could not obtain enough soul energy replenishment, and even because the space was about to be destroyed, it had to draw the energy of this dread knight to repair the damage caused by the Void Storm to the world wall.
Ranster's arrows continued to shoot, and his record continued to climb. The number of fifteen has already been broken.
This record is naturally nothing for ordinary people. But for the mermaid Lancet, then it is a very good record.
Harding and Rottikabas were extremely fast, and the distance of sixty meters was only a few seconds for them.
The two men were like red-hot knives, cutting directly into the butter made up of ghouls.
In an instant, all the ghouls standing in front of the two men were immediately knocked out - perhaps there was something wrong with the collision, because all the ghouls were swept out by Roti Kabas with a direct shot. With Rottikabas's strength, let alone these ordinary ghouls at the moment, even mutated ghouls or enhanced ghouls will never be his enemies. Therefore, there is no need to guess the fate of these ghouls who were directly slapped away by Rotikabas, and the more unlucky ones don't even have the possibility of being slapped away. was simply shot by Rottikabas.
Perhaps affected by the bloody aura of the other ghouls who were shot on their bodies, the ghouls who were close to Harding and Rottikabas had obviously begun to become chaotic and violent, completely uncontrolled by the Dreadknight, and turned around and began to attack Harding and the two.
With Rottikabas's weapons, once they fall into the encirclement and lack enough space to swing their weapons, then Rottikabas's strength will be reduced by half. And with so many ghouls continuing to attack, even Rotikabas would have to pay a certain price to break through without the power of his weapon, so how could he still have the strength to fight the Dreadknights?
It's just that the battle at this time is not just Rottikabas.
Harding's existence saved Rottikabas from falling into such a crisis.
All the ghouls who lost control and began to attack Rhoti Kabas frantically, as long as they came from behind Rottikabas and behind the left and right sides, were all intercepted by Harding.
At this time, even Harding didn't dare to hide it at all.
The armor was already on, and the attack must have been 100% full - all the ghouls that were repelled by Harding were either collapsing or simply smashed into pulp. The ghouls who wanted to get close to these two people would not survive at all, and they were basically killed by a single blow, and there was no need for Rottikabas and Harding to strike a second time.
However, even if there were two people like Rottikabas and Harding slaughtering like Shura, the number of ghouls was still too much, and the number of Harding and Hattikappas was too small, so that as soon as these two people entered the phalanx of ghouls, the gap they had torn up as a breakthrough had been filled in less than three seconds. Except that the crowd standing a little further away could still see ghouls flying up from the phalanx, proving that Harding and Rottikabas were still alive and still advancing, nothing could be seen.
However, whenever a ghoul is slapped away by Rroticabas and then lands around, it always causes a brief moment of chaos.
The Dreadknight's influence and dominance are still in effect, as evidenced by the fact that the brief chaos around them is always quickly suppressed. But the chaos caused by the massacres of Rottikabas and Harding, which was at the center of the whole chaos, was not something that the Dreadknight could suppress. No matter how loud his roar was, the ghouls in the center still didn't follow orders.
"Cecilia!" Seeing that the ghoul phalanx that had been guided by the chaos in the middle finally had a fault, Sean finally opened his mouth and shouted. "With as much magic as possible, throw a wide range of burning magic into the places where the ghouls are most!"
Hearing Sean's words, Cecilia immediately nodded.
Her gaze scanned the battlefield, then quickly locked onto a spot and began chanting incantations. Originally, with Cecilia's strength, it was possible to cast low-level magic without chanting incantations, but the current situation in this space was obviously different from the outside world. Cecilia, who does not feel any elemental or magical energy, must also use the power of her own bloodline as a medium to launch magical attacks, so Cecilia must chant a spell to communicate magic and elementals and make them resonate.
Ghoul phalanx. There were only less than forty meters left from Sean and the others, but because of the charge of Harding and Rotikabas, there was confusion and stagnation in the middle of the entire ghoul phalanx, and all the ghouls in this area were besieging these two. Therefore, only the left and right positions of the phalanx are still aligned. As for the part that extends into the middle with the position of these two sides. There is a clear disconnect in the formation.
Cecilia's chosen attack position is a formation off-node on the left.
If you attack from this position, you can at least bring more than seven ghouls into the attack range, and if the ghouls in the rear are a little slower to dodge, then the ghouls that are caught in the attack range will be at least ten to fifteen. This number of attacks is almost equal to the number of kills Lancet has taken over a long period of time, and this is the value of a mage in battle.
Soon, almost at the end of Cecilia's incantation chanting time. A raging flame rose into the sky right at Cecilia's mental lock!
A burning range of nearly ten meters directly burned the five ghouls in the range circle to charcoal at the same time, and there were also three ghouls in the vicinity because of the close distance. It was ignited by the flames, and immediately rolled on the ground. Further behind, three ghouls were too fast to "brake" and crashed headlong into the flames, letting out a terrible scream, and then were soon charred in the flames.
Three ghouls, who were not yet dead, were rolling on the ground, trying to extinguish the flames on their bodies.
But these magical flames can be extinguished by rolling on the ground.
As the three ghouls rolled weaker and weaker, and their screams grew softer, it was clear that death was not far off. However, the corpse oil on their bodies and the unique characteristics of Cecilia's bloodline can also keep these flames burning, and they will never be extinguished lightly in a short time.
The other ghouls around them quickly moved away from the range of the flames in a panicked manner, and even the three ghouls who were engulfed in flames rolling on the ground were also their targets of distance. In an instant, chaos began to arise on the left flank of the entire ghoul legion, and this chaos was completely uncontrollable by the Dreadknight.
As undead creatures, fire and light are inherently lethal to them, and as such have always been the means of contact that undead creatures have tried to avoid.
Maybe the high-level undead creatures already know how to avoid it, but for the middle and low-level undead creatures, they obviously don't know how to avoid it correctly, and they just rely on their instinctive thoughts to stay away as much as possible. This is also the real reason for the confusion of these ghouls on the left, because they don't know that they just need to bypass the places where the flames are burning, but subconsciously choose to stay away.
At this point, it is much more valuable than directly dealing with these ghouls.
In just one shot, Cecilia took out thirteen ghouls.
If you count the ones that Lancet had dealt with, and the parts that Harding and Rottikabas had solved and diverted, the ghoul phalanx was now more than half empty - at least the left flank and the center had become sparse, and the only thing that was still intact was the right.
However, the ghouls on the right wing were only twenty-five meters away from Sean and the others.
At this moment, the Dreadknight suddenly let out an earth-shattering roar.
No one knows exactly what this Dreadknight is talking about, but from its roar. But the anger can be clearly felt.
The next moment, the Dreadknight, who had been in the rear and only controlled and commanded, suddenly rushed towards the battlefield - its targets were Rottikabas and Harding!
A dark blue path of flame soon formed under the gallop of the nightmare. It looks as if there are lights on a trail that suddenly turn on from both sides.
The Dreadknight's charging speed is extremely fast, and as a high-level undead creature that can be compared to or even slightly superior to a powerhouse at the peak of the upper golden rank, his combat power is obviously not low. Of course, the main thing is that high-level undead creatures don't have any companion mentality towards undead creatures of lower rank than them, so when those ghouls besieging Harding and Roticamas stand in front of them, these ghouls are naturally picked up by this dreadknight's halberd without hesitation.
Even, in order to maintain the feeling and strength of the battle. After picking off these ghouls, this dreadknight also waved his halberd to unload these ghouls in mid-air!
For a moment, minced flesh and blood flew all over the sky.
When the Dread Knight enters the battlefield. The strong coercion of the superior suddenly spread all over the place, and the ghouls who were a little far away from the battlefield of Harding and Rottikabas immediately seemed to be running away for their lives, only those who were close. The ghouls who are immobilized by this coercive momentum will become the victims of the Dreadknight's attack.
This is the absolute influence of the superior over the inferior.
In the world of undead creatures. This is an absolutely inviolable pyramid law!
However, when the Dreadknight joins the battle, it is not the battlefield where Harding and Rottikabas are on the battlefield, but the position of Sean and others who are further behind.
At this time, the right wing of the ghoul legion, which was still relatively intact, still had more than thirty ghouls, and the left flank, which had been completely disorganized, also numbered close to twenty, if you count the ghouls who escaped from the battlefield of Harding and Rotikabas. The number of ghouls attacking Sean and the others has exceeded fifty. But the real danger is naturally the ghouls on the right wing. After all, they were only twenty-five meters away from Sean and the others.
And without the coercion control from the high-level undead fear knights, these ghouls immediately rushed towards Sean and the others with red eyes.
They crawled on their hands and feet at a rapid pace, and a short distance of twenty-five meters was not too far for them, and even if Ranster could shoot from a stand, he would only have time to shoot an arrow at this distance - not even the ghoul shot by Ranster was not dead, the feathered arrow was stuck in its skull, and did not penetrate the brain completely. Cecilia's magic, even if it was cast, could no longer have the desired effect, so she had to interrupt the magic herself, and instead cast a fireball with less power, but faster casting speed and tracking attack attributes.
"Beware of corpse poison!" Watching the ghouls approach quickly, Sean only had time to shout this sentence before he had to swing his sword at the nearest ghoul.
When the black sword light swung out of Sean's hand, the ghoul who had already swooped up and tried to kill Cecilia was dismembered by Sean on the spot.
After dealing with the first ghoul, Sean has completely fallen into the encirclement of several ghouls, and there is a steady stream of ghouls joining the circle besieging Sean. Although with Sean's strength, it is not too difficult to deal with these ghouls, but the ghouls who continue to join the battle still bring a certain amount of pressure to Sean, because he has found that these ghouls actually all have the combat power increase from the Dread Knight, not only the speed is faster, but even the attack power, defense and even healing ability have been increased by different degrees.
This means that as long as they don't deal fatal or paralyzing damage to these ghouls, they can continue to fight.
After Sean suffered two losses, one of which was even almost scratched by a ghoul's claw on his chest and abdomen, Sean didn't dare to have the slightest reservation, and directly swallowed a pilgrim's holy water, and the dark power from his body instantly emerged from Sean's body. However, after this dark force emerged, Sean suddenly found that the ghouls besieging him seemed to have lost the amplification effect of the dreaded knight, and his combat power suddenly decreased, and he didn't even need to perform any moves with dark fighting spirit to be able to easily deal with these ghouls.
However, the ghouls who bypassed Sean to attack Cecilia and Lance and others were not weakened, and they still had the strength increase from the Dreadknights.
This is naturally not good news for Cecilia and others.
I saw that Hina shot at a ghoul, obviously it had pierced the heart, but it was hindered by the strengthening of the ghoul's body muscles, so this shot did not directly pierce its heart. It's just that Sheena's strength is still insufficient, but after so many days of training and various actual combat training, her combat experience is also different - she did not continue to fight with this ghoul, but with a flick of her spear, she threw this ghoul towards another ghoul who pounced on Heatley.
Suddenly, the ghoul that was thrown away by Sheena landed on the ghoul who was trying to kill Heaterly, not only interrupting its pounce, but also smashing it to the ground, and both ghouls completely stumbled together.
At this time, the fireball technique from Cecilia accurately hit the ghoul, and immediately burned on the two ghouls.
However, when Cecilia's fireball spell landed on the two ghouls, the other ghoul also took the opportunity to lunge towards Cecilia. Obviously, these ghouls, who already have a certain IQ, know the power of Cecilia's magician, so they did not attack rashly, but waited for the opportunity - so this time the flying pounce was naturally extremely dangerous, coupled with the tricky angle, even Sheena was powerless and had no time to rescue.
Seeing that Cecilia was about to be killed by the ghoul, an arrow with a pale golden glow shot out from the side, accurately into the ghoul's neck. Although this arrow could not completely kill the ghoul, the powerful impact also made the ghoul's flying pounce completely deviate from the trajectory, and Sheena, who was unable to rescue her, was able to arrive - because the ghoul fell into the attack range of Sheena after deviating from the flying track, so Sheena did not hesitate at all, and the spear smashed and smashed the ghoul's head.
At the same time, another fireball blasted the two ghouls who were about to kill Ranster into two blazing balls of fire.
Seeing that Sheena cooperated with Cecilia, Lance and others so tacitly, Sean, who was originally hanging a heart, could finally relax a little. (To be continued......)
