Chapter 603 The hole cards of the wood elves
After two consecutive failed attacks, the dark elves finally became angry and began to leave the cover of the ruins and come to the surface, and after more than an hour, a large number of soldiers were regrouped, and it seemed that they were densely packed, at least more than 3,000 people, followed by many civilians with weapons. On top of that, they've finally sent out a large number of spellcasters and arachnoid elves, apparently planning a general attack.
Seeing this, Henry's face changed slightly, and he immediately said to the brown dragon who was falling into deep thought: "Be prepared, if nothing else, it will be our turn to do it soon." β
"Of course, great master, I have long been impatient." As he spoke, Otagos bared his fangs, and his eyes burst out with murderous aura. He now finally understood that the real dragons were all about killing and destroying miè to establish their prestige, and that these enemies in front of him were just the stepping stones to send to his door.
"Very well, let's do it. Be careful not to fly too low when diving, the dark elves' enchanted arrows are still very threatening. Henry finally admonished. Although he didn't know the plans of the dark elves, half of the soldiers had already been dispatched this time, and as long as they were completely destroyed, then the rest would be frightened and retreat back underground, and the war would be over.
Otagos slowly moved his wings as he yelled at the two female green dragons who were cowering and hiding behind: "Lazy worm! Hurry up, it's time for work. If you don't work hard enough in battle, then I'll tear off pieces of your flesh and eat them. β
"I ...... We will do our best to never let you down. A female dragon replied in a frightened whisper.
She pressed her head very low, looking like she had completely succumbed to the other party's authority. I didn't even dare to show a little resentment in my eyes and affection. For fear of brutal reprisals. The other female dragon also hurriedly licked the brown dragon's front paws. It's a complete submissive look.
"Great master, I will now go find a place to lie in ambush and wait for your orders." Saying that, Otagos directly blessed himself with a "stealth technique" and flew away. Two female green dragons followed closely behind, they had a natural protective color in the forest, and they didn't need much camouflage at all.
As the three dragons left, the rear of the camp suddenly became much emptyer. All the Wood Elf soldiers gathered at the front, nervously waiting for the next fierce attack, and Henry himself was left alone in the rear. He just stood there and raised his head. Admiring the bright moonlight and the stars in the sky, he seemed unconcerned about the fierce battle that was about to take place.
Suddenly, there was a hint of magic in the air, followed by a huge portal being opened. More than a dozen green, brown, and black young dragons poured out of their brains, their bodies exuding negative energy and the aura of death, and their eyes were also quite abnormal, all of them were dark red like blood.
"The hosts! Hopefully I didn't come too late. β
As soon as she finished speaking, Shantil stepped through the portal and appeared in the clearing. Her face was filled with excitement, and at the same time, her whole body was constantly exuding chaos and evil, which could be clearly felt even without detecting the camp.
Henry chuckled and shook his head: "Of course it's not too late. And the time was just right. These are the newborn vampire dragons? β
Shantil bowed slightly and replied, "Yes, master." My experiment was successful. However, they have just broken out of their shells, and their strength is still very weak, as long as there is enough blood, they will soon grow rapidly. β
"There's going to be a big war here, maybe there's not much else, but there's definitely plenty of blood. Take them to the woods on the west side, the only route for the Dark Elves to retreat, and I'm going to the battle zone now. With that, Henry activated the stealth ability on the Archmage's Staff and marched to the battlefield.
Although he was eager to study the physiology and abilities of the vampire dragon now, the current situation no longer allowed it. Just as the two of them were talking, two collapses appeared in the earthen wall in front of them, and under the cover of magic and divine magic, the arachnoid elves were simply unstoppable, especially the terrifying jumping ability, which smashed the formation of the wood elves.
Fortunately, General Erhan had the foresight to have the priest bless all the soldiers with the first-level divine skill "Resist Fear" in advance, otherwise they might have completely collapsed by now.
This is one of the most commonly used magic techniques on the battlefield, which can make soldiers completely forget their fears and develop the determination to fight to the death, even if the enemy is strong, they will not back down. It is precisely because of such spells that the wars on the continent of Faren are extremely cruel, and most of the time they end with the annihilation of one side.
You must know that in the battle of the cold weapon era on the earth, generally speaking, the troops that have killed more than thirty percent and can not be defeated are out-and-out elites. Because human beings are too susceptible to external influences, once they find that their companions around them have been killed or injured too much, they will immediately gather to produce a sad feeling of rabbit death and fox death, and the blow to morale is not ordinarily big.
But with the help of this magic spell, it's different. It makes the most timid and cowardly soldier fearless, even in the face of death, and keeps morale at its highest level.
Of course, nothing is absolute. After all, the brain has a limit to endure, and as long as it exceeds this degree, there is a high probability that an avalanche effect will occur, and even if you cast a hundred "resistance fears" at that time, it will be useless.
At this moment, the dark elves finally completely showed the momentum of the underground overlord, with sophisticated weapons and armor, tacit team matching, and a large number of slave cannon fodder, the entire fortifications of the earthen fort were scattered in just a few minutes. The Wood Elves could only resist through the narrow passages, but it didn't seem to last long.
Seeing the enemy's mage regiment ravaging the position, Erhan jumped to his feet in a hurry and yelled at the chief mage, "Damn it! What the hell is going on with you mages?!! We need spell support now! Don't give me nonsense and excuses! It doesn't matter what it is! Anyway, hurry up and use them all! Otherwise, it's all over! β
His image is not very good at the moment, the delicate magic chain mail on his body has been cut twice, and his hair is messy. Both hands were stained with plasma. I don't know if it's my own or the enemy's.
"I'm sorry. Old friend, we've all done our best. These damned drow elves have forbidden the school of spells, and we spellmoners can't cast their spells at all. The Chief Mage explained dejectedly.
"Then use magic items and scrolls! Don't you see that our compatriots are dying in large numbers?! Erhan looked extremely excited, and his whole body trembled slightly as he spoke. He was about to be driven crazy by the bad form, and if he continued like this, he would probably be wiped out in another half an hour or so.
The chief mage nodded helplessly: "Okay, we use the last hole card, but we don't know if we can succeed." Because the enemy's mage regiment is superior to us in both quantity and quality. β
"I understand that you just have to do your best. Our task now is to attract all the enemy's forces, and now that we are halfway done, you must complete the remaining half. After speaking, Erhan patted his old friend on the shoulder and returned to the forefront of the battlefield. He was ready to sacrifice at any time, all for the ultimate victory.
Henry stood in mid-air, silently watching the two sides who were fighting below. The blood feud that has lasted for tens of thousands of years has made every soldier more bloodthirsty and manic, and without any material encouragement, mental strength alone is enough to burst out with 200% combat effectiveness. But the retreating line of defense still made him wrinkle.
Clearly, this is not the time to attack. Because the reserves of the dark elves have not yet been pressed on all fronts. Only in the early two thousand entered the battlefield, and most importantly. The casters were very careful to keep a safe distance, and if they attacked at this moment, they would most likely run away.
Just as he was considering whether to help, a huge ball of magical energy instantly appeared behind the earthen fort camp. Dozens of Wood Elf military mages had solemn expressions and chanted ancient spells loudly, definitely surpassing Cheng DΓΉ above level nine in terms of strength, and the entire earth seemed to be responding.
"Is this the magical ritual left behind by the elven civilization of Erivanda? It was terrifying that it only took such a small number of low-level mages to be able to do this. Henry narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself.
He could feel that this was definitely not any kind of spell that he knew, and it was very likely that the elves were pressing the bottom of the box, so he was engrossed in the analysis, including spells, spell casting actions, guiding rituals, etc., and refused to let go of even the slightest detail.
"No!! Go and kill the mage who guided the ritual, and don't let them complete this spell. The commander of the Dark Elf Mage Corps shouted frantically. He seemed to recognize what this magic was, and he didn't care about any manners, and his expression was as hideous as a madman.
The high-ranking priestess who was directing the attack waved her whip and shouted, "Male! Pay attention to your attitude! What's going on? Why so panicked! β
"That'...... That was the crowning achievement of elven magic. Remember that horrific catastrophe more than 25,000 years ago? It is powerful enough to tear the earth apart. The mage explained with a shudder. He couldn't believe that he could hear these terrible incantations again in his lifetime.
"What!!!! Are you sure you heard it right? The corners of the High Priestess's mouth twitched violently.
Every elf had heard from their elders about the horrific catastrophe. Hundreds of High Elf mages wanted to create a glorious home that belonged only to elves, but the magic power generated by the ritual was too strong for the earth to withstand it, and finally it was torn apart and became what it is now.
There is no doubt that if it is really that spell, then all of the people present will die, and escaping will not solve any problems at all.
The mage shook his head slightly, "I'm not sure. After all, their numbers are too small to exert their maximum power, but it's okay to hit us hard. β
"Damn! Attack on all fronts! Go and kill all the goblins who cast spells! They must not be allowed to complete the ceremony! The High Priestess finally couldn't help but give the order to attack. In her opinion, it is very likely that the wood elves are planning to use the power of this magic to die together, so they must not let each other's plans succeed...... (To be continued......)
