Chapter 719: The Vortex (VII)

The mutant crow descended from the sky and swooped down on everyone.

If you hadn't been warned, you might have been scrambling for this sudden attack. But before they came here, they had been warned. Although Jenny was not there, the other three Holy Sons had also entered the forest with her, and naturally they had encountered these terrible birds. At that time, if Jenny hadn't opened the astral passage, I'm afraid the three of them wouldn't have been able to come back alive. Therefore, for these monsters, Priest Naga naturally has a deep memory, so before leaving, she has already explained it to the others.

And now, her reminder clearly came in handy.

"Enemy attack!!"

As early as the flock of birds appeared, everyone was ready. At this moment, seeing the flock of birds coming, the officers of the army immediately raised their hands, and soon golden lines appeared out of thin air, intertwining with each other to form a huge and incomparably large divine magic circle, blocking the front of the flock of birds. Then I saw the mutant crows scream and pounce, and then slam into the invisible barrier. For a while, I could only hear the dull sound of "dong bang", like hail. And those crows were also masked and turned around after being hit, and they couldn't react for a while.

But even so, it still made everyone who had already been waiting for a long time gasp.

Because the crows at the moment are obviously not ordinary.

Not only are they larger than ordinary crows, but they also look uglier. From a distance, they seem to be indistinguishable from ordinary birds, except for their larger size. But when the two sides got closer to a distance that could not be closer, everyone realized how deformed these crows were in front of them.

Their wings are not like the wings of a normal bird. On the contrary, it is more like the wings of a bat, and when it is unfolded, it is not the layers of feathers that you see. Rather, it is a film of skin that is connected to the body. Not only that, but in addition to their bright red eyes. Even more shocking is their abdomen. Each crow's abdomen has a vertical line that splits from the neck to the bottom, making it look like a knife cut in the blink of an eye. And when the crows flew down and opened their bodies, the crack revealed its true face -- it flipped open to the left and right, revealing a dense collection of small teeth inside, and a tongue that I don't know if it was a mutation of intestines or some other organ.

This is actually a carnivore's mouth!!

"The Nine Saints ............... above"

Even if they were mentally prepared, many people were stunned when they saw this scene, and they just stared at the monster in front of them. For a while, I didn't know what to do. But the mutant crows apparently didn't care what their prey would do, and they desperately collided with their shields, trying to break through the obstacles in front of them and attack the prey below. Realizing that they would not be able to achieve their goal, they flapped their wings and flew into the air, and then saw a lump of dark green viscous liquid that resembled poop out of its mouth and scatter downwards.

"Attack!! Start attacking!! ”

The shield is not omnipotent, in fact, in the face of the attack of so many mutant crows, it is already a little difficult, if it is not for Ellie's bad situation, the strength of the shield is enhanced. I'm afraid the barrier has already been breached by the mutated crows at this point. At this moment, the others also reacted immediately, only to see that the knights quickly picked up the crossbows on their waists and aimed at the sky, while the elves even bent their bows and arrows to launch a new round of attacks against the enemy in front of them.

Time. Arrows rained down into the air, and hundreds of crows fell in response. But there are many more crows who don't care about these arrows at all. They just fly into the air and then rush down with all their might. Heavy on the barrier. Then it flew up again, and then it rushed down again.........

I have to admit it. It's stupid, but it works. The average animal race faces such a loss. I'm afraid I've already retreated with a mournful voice. But the indomitable spirit of these mutant crows in front of them sent chills down everyone's spine. They don't need to use prophecy spells to know what the outcome will be. It is impossible to protect everyone with a wide range of protection spells, and it consumes more power. And in the face of the crazy impact of the mutant birds, the protective barrier can only hold on for more than ten minutes at most before it completely dissipates, and at that time, if the birds do not retreat, then they will either completely destroy these monsters, or be completely wiped out by these monsters, and there is almost no third way to go.

The situation faced by the advance team at this moment was not much better than that of Jenny and the others at that time. Although they were more numerous, in this situation, hundreds of elves plus two or three hundred paladins, a team of a thousand people, in front of this flock of thousands of mutant birds, it seemed that there was no numerical advantage at all.

Not to mention, they were different from the Naga priests at the time, but they didn't have Jenny to take them to the astral plane for refuge.

It's just that not everyone will agree that they will face a second outcome.

"Boom !!"

The dazzling fire broke out again, and the high temperature mixed with the waves of air scattered and blew on everyone's faces, causing many people to staggered away to the side unexpectedly. And when they turned their heads to look, they found that Patilina was raising the spear in her hand at this moment, aiming at the flock of birds in front of them. Then the little one smiled excitedly and moved his fingers slightly. The next moment, a flash of fire flashed, and then a violent explosion suddenly unfolded in front of them.

"Boom !!"

The tumbling tongues of fire mercilessly engulfed the flock of mutant birds as they desperately attacked, the scorching heat setting their feathers on fire, and the powerful impact mixed with shrapnel wreckage tore through their bodies like sharp blades. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of mutated crows completely disappeared in the fire cloud. But Patilina was obviously not satisfied with this, instead, looking at the wreckage and corpses falling from the sky in front of her, the little one excitedly stuck out her tongue and licked her lips, and then raised the silver spear in her hand again.

The bright red light resurfaced, dyeing a large patch of bright red among the originally black and oppressive flocks -- but it was not known whether it was blood or the brilliance of flame.

Patilina certainly wasn't fighting alone.

In fact. Even Elinster was involved in the battle. She doesn't have the ability to wipe out hundreds of mutated crows with a single wave of her hand, like Patilina, and she doesn't have the arrow-free ability of an elven warrior. But as a holy son with the power of the heart. Elinster also has her own special skills.

Hoarse screams came from all directions, looking up. Only a piece of black pressure could be seen. And in the face of this scene, even Irinster couldn't help but turn pale. Although she had seen a lot of things after following Pattilina for so long, facing such a large number of enemies was something that Irest had never encountered. And even so, she still held her breath, forcibly pressed her bouncing heart, and stared at the flock of mutant birds in front of her.

The mutation occurred in an instant.

The mutant crows, who were still frantically ramming and trying to break through the barrier, suddenly stopped. Suddenly, their movements began to become disorganized, and they began to fly aimlessly around the sky. You can even see them criing irregularly and colliding with each other. Seeing this scene, Irinster also gritted her teeth, and then she looked at the target in front of her again, and an invisible, unrecognizable spiritual wave erupted again, whistling and spreading around. And this time, those mutated crows finally couldn't support it anymore, and after a strange scream, they fell to the ground one after another. There was no more sound.

Others are working on the same thing, but unfortunately there is only so much they can do. After all, these mutated crows are flying in the sky, not fighting them on the ground. Paladins can't show their bravery by wielding their blades and shouting slogans. And arrows are even more consumables, and one less is to shoot. Even if the elves are sharpshooters, each arrow can destroy an enemy. Facing the black, almost endless flock of mutant birds in front of him. They were also a little overwhelmed. In fact, stick with it until now. It's already a bit shaky for everyone.

"We must evacuate immediately!!"

The elven princess drew an arrow and put it on her longbow, and then shot forward without looking. And with her movements, a black shadow flew out like lightning, and then shot into the brain of one of the mutant crows that bore the brunt of it, and then continued forward, until it ran through the bodies of the four mutant crows like a skewer of meat. It can be seen that this princess can become a star of hope in the country of elves, and it is obviously not in vain.

However, at this moment, Her Royal Highness the princess obviously had no interest in showing her ability to get any food stall skills, and saw her subordinates continue to draw an arrow from behind her and put it on the bowstring, while turning her head to look at Ellie, who was struggling to support the protective barrier, and spoke.

Any group needs to have a leader, whether it is the Children of the Nine Saints or now. Among the Nine Holy Sons, Ellie is the first person to deserve, because she is a saint and represents the Templar Order, so she naturally has a lot of influence. In fact, the main personnel who attacked the Activated Forest this time were from the clerics of the Templar Order and the elves of the Elven Forest, so it can also be said that Ellie and Viconia had the final say. And now that the elf princess wants to retreat, she naturally can't give orders on her own, but needs to communicate with Ellie.

"But we can't evacuate now!"

Ellie agrees with the elven princess's proposal, but the problem is that they can't get out of it now. Before, everyone's reaction was still too slow. What's worse is that although there are warriors, paladins, and elven marksmen who came with them this time, there are not enough mages. The elves themselves are more inclined to the druid's natural spell system, and are not good at elemental spells with powerful destruction and killing powers. And although there is also a mage among the Nine Sages, his own job is an alchemist, and in the face of such a situation, a mage who has not yet stepped into the legendary realm is of no great use.

"The Guardian Barrier won't last long, and if we don't find a way to destroy these monsters before we do, I'm afraid we're all going to be in big trouble!!"

Hearing the elf princess's words, Ellie also gritted her teeth. Of course she understood that the elven princess was right, but now ............

Thinking of this, Ellie couldn't help but glance at Patilina, who was still pouring fire and destruction in front of her. I have to admit that the little guy does have the ability, and it is precisely because of her existence that she has been able to make everyone persist until now. After all, under the devastating artillery fire, these monsters with dense formations naturally suffered quite a serious blow.

And now, if you want to find a way out, you can only rely on this young lady.

Thinking of this, Ellie no longer hesitated, looked at Patilina and called out loudly.

"Miss Patilina, we need your help!!" (To be continued.) )
