Chapter 86: More than One Enemy (End)

In the face of the sudden attack of Rhodes and others, the necromancer was also taken aback. In order to control and give orders better, he ordered the rear army to be crushed while moving forward——— in fact, there is no way to do it, the law circle of the holy spear is too domineering, completely covering the entire night sky, and you can't see your head at a glance. Even if it wanted to, it couldn't do it, because if it did, it wouldn't be long before its own army would be completely wiped out by the other side's fierce pursuit. It also felt the suppressive effect of the anti-death enchantment on itself, and naturally understood how much strength its army still had in this situation. Rather than being completely annihilated when forced to retreat, it is better to take this opportunity to attack directly, if you can break through the northern defense line, maybe there is still a chance to be able to take down the opponent's law artifact, which is a great achievement, because so far, no one has been able to do it.

In fact, the necromancer also knew that he had been fooled, but now it had no other way but to make a desperate bet and move on.

But it still didn't expect that Rhodes would choose to counterattack, and the speed was so fast——— from the moment it saw the front line cannon fodder position burning raging flames, it saw a line of fire rushing towards its own direction, it was like a spark that was ignited and detonated, just a blink of an eye, and found that the other party was about to come to its own front.

This immediately surprised the necromancer, and it hurriedly retreated, and at the same time cast a necromancy to attack Rhodes and the others, trying to slow them down, but it didn't expect that its attack had no effect at all, and when it sensed that something was wrong, the raging flames from the tips of the Seven Loves' fingertips had already blasted towards it. Faced with this unavoidable attack, the necromancer had no other choice. It gritted its teeth and summoned a white bone shield to block its side, in order to block the opponent's attack.

But the moment he really came into contact with the flame impact of the Seven Loves, the necromancer suddenly realized that he had made an absolutely wrong choice, the flame impact of the Seven Loves was not a spell, but the power emitted by the pure condensation of the fire element. It's not by magic. Nor is it a spell that is called out of the elements by the rules of magic, condensed, but a pure elemental bombardment! This can only show one thing, that is, the other party can manipulate the fire element at will without the help of any means!

The other party has a fire elemental lord of the dominant class!

This discovery immediately frightened the necromancer, the conscience of heaven and earth, if it had known that there was a fire elemental lord of the dominant class sitting in this line of defense in front of it, it would not have launched an attack if it was killed. But now it's too late to regret it, it can only grit its teeth. And wait for an opportunity to prepare to escape. As for the 30,000 regular troops under his command, the necromancer has no idea at the moment——— there are law artifacts, elemental lords with the dominant class, he is doomed, run away as soon as possible!!

The white bone shield completely collapsed under the impact of the flames, and the roaring waves of heat also enveloped the necromancer, so that it could not leave in the first place, and when it finally survived this round of fire impact. What caught the necromancer's eyes was a dazzling snow-white.

There was not the slightest resistance. The holy white sword in Rod's hand stabbed into the necromancer's head with ease, and the silver-white divine flame burst out from the sword, devouring the necromancer in an instant, feeling the erosion of the divine power, the poor necromancer screamed and stretched out his hand, but quickly. It fell to the ground like a broken building block, silent.

The difference in strength between the two sides was too great, and Rhodes stood up, glanced at the necromancer who was turning into ashes, and said nothing. He just waved the sword in his hand, and then gave the order with determination.

"Attack."

Behind him, a torrent of burning flames began to surge, and the Flowing Fire Guards erupted into an incomparably hot heat at this moment, and bright red flames erupted from under the thick black magma shell attached to their bodies, and for a while, I saw that the five thousand Flowing Fire Guards suddenly turned into five thousand Fire Warriors, and in turn pressed towards the undead creatures in front of them.

In the face of this attack from the flank, the undead army trembled suddenly.

With a swing of his sword, Andre immediately blew away dozens of skeleton soldiers who were trying to climb the city wall, and he could feel that after the anti-death barrier was unfolded, these undead creatures that were originally extremely hard and gave people a headache were indeed much easier to deal with. Although he hated the man very much, he had to admit that the things he had at his disposal were really useful against the undead. If it weren't for the statue of the Holy Maiden, I'm afraid they wouldn't have been able to stop the attack of the undead. Even just now, Andre once thought that his side might collapse completely, but when the statue of the Holy Maiden was activated, and the anti-death barrier enveloped the entire winter front, their form gradually improved, and those undead creatures that were originally difficult to deal with were now shattered in one beat, and even ordinary soldiers could fight two at a time, and this change in strength suddenly reinvigorated the soldiers who were originally a little demoralized. For a while, I was even able to fight evenly. And at this moment, suddenly, a voice sounded in his ears.

"Your Excellency!!"

"What's the matter!?"

Andre held the sigh of the sea god in his hand tightly with both hands, and then struck at the ground again, accompanied by his movements, a series of ice edges roared out of the ground, and immediately knocked the skeleton soldiers and death knights in front of him away, and with Andre's attack, the offensive of the undead army in front of him was also slowed down, and it was only at this time that Andre was in the mood to turn his head and look at the adjutant behind him.

"That's right, the offensive of the undead army is a bit chaotic now, and General Colin thinks that we should take the opportunity to retreat, avoid its edge for the time being, and reorganize before re-attacking..............."

"Cut."

Hearing this, Andre spat disdainfully, don't look at what the other party said, but he knows very well what those guys are thinking. In fact, they had already had such an idea before, but at that time, the undead attacked too hard, like a roaring stormy wave, so that they had no choice but to grit their teeth and persevere. And now, the opponent's offensive has slowed down. These guys are finally starting to move again. What is temporarily avoiding the edge and carrying out rectification is completely an excuse, and it is true that you want to take the opportunity to run away. In fact, it is not surprising that the southern defense line is supported by Rhodes, but in the northern defense line, although it is ostensibly commanded by the Council of Light. But in fact, Andre is also very clear that the current army gathered around the Council of Light does not have a solidified backbone at all, they have their own ideas, and there is no spirit of coordination at all. And now the situation is also obvious, although the undead army has been weakened, but the soldiers on the defense line have also lost most of them, and the rest can only be supported hard, and if this continues, sooner or later they will be defeated. Although the holy spear fired from the statue of the Holy Maiden also destroyed many undead creatures, it was all undead creatures in the rear. It didn't ease the pressure on their forward defenses at all——— which wasn't really surprising given the feud between Rhodes and the Council of Light.

If the northern defense line could have had a respectable commander who could even command the whole situation, I am afraid that things would not be as bad as they are now. But the problem is that the various legions in charge of the northern defense line have always been dissatisfied with each other, and because of the successive defeats before, the prestige of the Council of Light has also been reduced a lot, as a member of it. Andrei is well aware of this. The Combine is ostensibly "united for humanity", but in reality it is not fused at all. So when faced with the attack of the undead, they immediately showed their original form. Start fighting on your own. It was as if just now, General Colin actually asked himself if he wanted to retreat......... Without a commander-in-chief who is sufficiently convincing, the current Combine Army is on the verge of storming.

Originally, Andrei had expected himself to become the commander of this combined army, and he had enough strength, but the defeat in the Dragon Soul Sacred Book made him no longer qualified to compete for the commander-in-chief. So. He can only lead one of these small legions now, fighting to fend off the undead. He can't retreat, and he definitely won't, this is his only chance to start over, for the sake of his dead men. He has to succeed!!

But if it continues like this, it can only slow down the pace of the undead army's attack, but there is no way to repel them at all.

No wonder they want to retreat.

But.................. Andrei raised his head and looked ahead, in front of him, the undead were still attacking the city wall, tens of thousands of undead corpses piled up hills under the city wall, almost all of them were as high as the city wall, and the later undead could even directly step on the "hill" paved by their predecessors and directly climb the city wall to charge, and now they can continue to support because they are located above, which is considered to have an advantage. But if you want to go back, you will have to go down the wall, and by that time......... Will they really have time to run away? Andrei could almost imagine that if he really retreated according to what those guys said, then the next moment, the undead creatures occupying the city wall would be surging down like a tide, completely enveloping them, and at that time, no one would be able to escape!

Thinking of this, Andre instinctively glanced back behind him, and then the pupils in his eyes suddenly shrank.

What is that?!

With just a glimpse, André saw that not far behind them, rows of soldiers were lined up, holding torches aloft and quietly staring ahead, shields and swords in their hands, staring at the city walls. It seems like a lot of them, but who are they? Reinforcements? Doesn't look like it? If it's reinforcements, then why should they stay in the rear? Andrei remembered that there were no soldiers there before the battle began. Could it be reinforcements from the southern line? That's not right, if it's reinforcements, why don't you go to the city wall to help them fight together, but stay in the back and watch the show? Could it be ...............

Andrei's eyes looked at the flag fluttering above them, and then he was shocked, because with the help of the firelight, he could clearly see that the flag was the symbol of the army of the southern defense line! This means that the army behind him is not reinforcements from the Council of Light, but from the man's army. And they are now in the rear, their swords unsheathed, but they have no intention of coming forward to help, which means that they ...............

"Tell Colin, let him look behind him, if he's not afraid of death, then he can retreat! I'm not going to back down, I'm going to stay the course! Order everyone, hold the line!! ”

Without looking back, he gave orders to his adjutant. Then Andre raised his sword forward again, and at this moment, a dark death knight leaped forward, the long sword in his hand swung forward, and the two swords intersected, making a crisp collision sound.

Although the undead army is still attacking. But without the necromancer's command, they're in complete disarray. Especially the undead creatures used to make cannon fodder in front of them, they have no intelligence themselves when they have just been awakened, and generally speaking, the undead creatures are awakened as a corpse, and they will not have the lowest intelligence until three months later. Until then, they were nothing more than puppets driven by the power of their souls, and they had to be commanded by others to act. And the defeat of the necromancer suddenly turned them into headless flies, but instinctively launched an attack on everything around them, and even some undead creatures in turn attacked other undead creatures around them——— which is another reason for the sudden decrease in pressure on the northern defense line.

And at this moment, the five thousand Flowing Fire Guards led by Rhodes are also advancing rapidly.

They don't come together. On the contrary, the five thousand Drifting Fire Guardians were arranged in a long row, like a sideline framing the entire undead legion inside, and then they gradually shrank under the leadership of Seven Love and Annie, as the most combat-savvy existence among the fire elemental creatures, the Flowing Fire Guardians are no less capable of fighting than the undead. Anne was like a raging hurricane, pushing inward without stopping, and all the undead who dared to stand in front of the girl were torn to shreds by the howling and wild wind elemental. And compared to the outbreak of Anne. Qilian seemed very quiet, and she didn't even make the slightest movement. Death allowed the aura of flame to expand through the crowd, mixed with the charge of the Flame Guards, slowly, but unwaveringly, devouring everything and moving forward.

The flames burned on the battlefield, and the Flowing Fire Guards who were burning with flames all over their bodies rushed into the black crushing undead creatures in great strides. They wielded the flaming spears in their hands, shattering everything in sight. The scorching heat and splashing flames ignited everything around them. Soon, I saw that the originally dim night sky was lit up by bright red, bright and dazzling flames. From afar, it looked like a precursor to the imminent end of the world, and the earth burned. Both the living and the dead are devoured in it, unable to resist, unable to stop, and the only thing they can do is to submit and destroy.

In the face of the attack from the rear, the undead army was obviously difficult to deal with, they were like a group of bugs trapped in their pockets, and at first, they were desperately trying to break through in the face of the shrinking pockets. But soon, with the glow of the Holy Spear roaring down, vast swaths of undead creatures were wiped out by the power of the Holy Force, and they disappeared. Although they also killed many of the Flame Guards, they did more damage than before——— explosions from the Dead Flame Guards roared and joined together on the pitch-black ground, the towering flames were dazzling and dazzling, and the huge shock wave spread across the battlefield, sweeping everything. Tears were torn one after another on the originally dense undead army, and soon, I saw that the original black pressure was overwhelming, and the number of the dense undead army began to become sparse, and the bright red and bright fire burned on it like igniting weeds, turning from a faint spark into a raging fire. Although there are some Death Knights who organize their own squads to try to eliminate the enemies in the rear, they are completely destroyed before Anne and Seven Love can put their resistance into action.

Coupled with the 30,000 undead army pressed by the necromancer, the necromantic creatures that Rhodes and the others had to face in front of them were about 40,000, originally logically speaking, only 5,000 stray fire guards could not play any role at all, but in fact, with the explosion and death of the stray fire guards one by one, the undead army also suffered unprecedented losses. Since they received the order to attack the northern defense line, and this order has not been lifted, and the northern defense line has not been able to break through, this has caused the undead army to be like a person with one foot stuck in a trap at this time, and can only struggle helplessly, but cannot break free.

"Boom Boom Boom Boom !!"

The flaming flame guard rushed towards the enemy in front of him, the flame spear in his hand swung through, completely crushing the dozen skeleton soldiers around him, and then, several weapons pierced its body like this, and then, with the shining white light, a huge roar mixed with the shock wave of the explosion spread out to the surrounding area. One after another, bright red sparks bloomed in the dark sea and then vanished.

The continuous firelight shone and roared, and the dark army of the undead was parting.

Seeing this scene in front of him, Rod didn't say anything, he just quietly looked at the battlefield in the distance connected by the roar of flames and explosions, and then a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then, Rod put his sword back into its sheath.

This battle, they won. (To be continued......)
