135. Massacre
There is such a saying on the Miracle Continent.
On the battlefield, only the mage can deal with the mage.
Because the strategic deterrent power of mages is too great, although their attack range is not as far as that of archers, they have a huge area of lethality that archers cannot do. Especially the large-scale magic array formed by the mage legion, the power is even more terrifying - it's just that in this level of war, the mages are not used to kill each other, but to contain them.
Therefore, the correct understanding of the meaning of this sentence on the Miracle Continent is that only magicians can interfere with the magician's magic array on the battlefield.
And it is precisely because of this that magicians are the most valuable talents on the Miracle Continent, and they are usually only seen in wars of a certain weight level. At present, this is a secret battle between two lords, and it is obviously not up to the scale that requires the action of magicians - most of the nobles who can have the field can afford to raise one or two magicians, although the strength is not high, but it is by no means an apprentice level.
As for the nobles with real power, there will never be a shortage of magicians, but their strength is high and low. On the contrary, the number of magicians under the command of those powerful nobles varies, and some even have only one or two, but the strength of these magicians is incomparable, basically one is used as two or three, which is not too much of a problem.
There are three magicians under Asuna's command, all of whom are of the same rank as herself, and they are all at the level of being able to break through to the lower gold at any time.
The enemy army did not expect that in the current war, there would be a magician, which was completely beyond everyone's expectations!
A fourth-level magic bead fireball burned and injured more than 30 people, although it was because of the relatively concentrated number of people, but this also proved the terrifying ability of magicians on the battlefield from the side. At this moment, the second fireball had already roared out, and this time the target of the attack was about one hundred and eighty meters directly in front of Cecilia, which was also the place where the arrows were fired most intensively just now.
After three fireballs blasted down. The flames produced were enough to burn everything around them. Several humanoid torches that could not dodge ran out from behind the trees, screaming and falling. Cecilia didn't know how many people were burned by the fireball this time, but if she thought that the opponent who was prepared and guarded against it would not fall so many people like the first time just now.
Only William, after squinting at the frequency and number of arrows. Silent recitation in my heart: fifty.
At least fifty people, few dead and many wounded.
Cecilia's little face was pale, and the two consecutive fireballs had almost drained the magic power in her body. William's judgment has always been very accurate, and Cecilia can only cast a maximum of three fireballs. Then he would faint due to the depletion of mana, which was not a good thing for a magician - at least, that was what all magicians on the Miracle Continent thought, except Sean who didn't.
Cecilia had already tried that the depletion of mana would indeed cause a stronger reaction than a hangover, but it would also stimulate the growth of mana and mental power, albeit slowly but effectively. It's just that she is in the middle of a war right now, and she can't really exhaust all her magic power. Because it would make her a burden and a burden. Cecilia's greatest fear is to be a burden and a burden to Sean.
Her gaze. Searching the battlefield, and then froze on Sean, who was about 13 or 40 meters ahead.
Sean slashed an arrow that was aimed at him, and several steel-winged guards immediately rushed up and stood with shields erected to protect Sean and Anno. The surrounding Northland barbarians also seemed to have found the backbone, and began to turn like a delicate gear, forming a steel barrier, and the two people who were protected in the crowd were the elders of their old and new generations.
"Chief, I'm sorry......" Anno gasped, still showing a smirk on his face, but he was a little more embarrassed, "I couldn't ...... Complete the quest ......"
"Shut up!" Sean roared roughly, he threw the long sword in his hand on the ground, at this moment, this demonization weapon worth more than 10,000 gold was not even as important as Anno in his eyes, "Hurry up and lie down for me, I'm injured like this, what are you doing so desperately!" ”
"The food is full, I will contribute." Anno still smirked, her smile showing no weakness, only sincerity.
Sean didn't speak, but just reached out and broke the shaft of the arrow that had not yet been pulled out of his body, a technique he had only learned since the first battle of the Tindes Army, and those veterans also knew a little bit of battlefield first aid. After this last night, he took off his clothes and tore them into strips of cloth, and then bandaged Anno's body, but the means to stop the bleeding were still worse after all.
"Youchang, this, it really hurts." Anno was still smiling, with a big grin, and he said that it was naturally an arrow, "I'm tired, I'm afraid I'll fall asleep after lying down." ”
"Don't sleep!" Sean exclaimed.
A flower dress has turned into rags, in addition to Anno, there are more than a dozen other people, some light and some serious, Sean's clothes are obviously not enough to bandage, can only give priority to those who are slightly more seriously injured, but the most serious one has already knelt on the ground and died, but he still uses his body to carry the shield, insisting on the last promise. All the Northland barbarians did not speak, they were like silent volcanoes, not that they would not erupt, but that the time had not yet come.
"Go back to William." Sean continued in a deep voice, "Bring all the wounded back!" ”
"Unitary Chief! I can still fight! "Anno is in a hurry.
"It's an order." Shaun dropped his last words, and immediately left the formation, charging towards an enemy he had targeted.
After performing the light body, Sean's speed was extremely fast, he just touched the ground slightly on his toes, and the whole person flew out, and the distance of more than ten meters was jumped under this point. It's not a matter of explosiveness, it's that Sean's weight is infinitely tending to zero, so there is no hindrance, several arrows that misjudged him are all shot behind him, and then he sees Sean's long sword swing, a head is thrown up, and the archer's forward figure even runs a few steps before falling.
Rear.
The steel wings of the fourth squad escorted the other seventeen people, including Anno, to quickly retreat to the rear, some of these people were seriously injured, and some of them were extremely lightly injured, but in fact, except for Anno and a few others. The rest of the people still have the strength to continue fighting. It's just that Sean knows. Anno is not a teacher's child, and he will definitely not go back to recuperate from his injuries, so he can only be suppressed and sent back.
Psychologically, Sean didn't want Anno to die so soon.
This is a rare and extremely intelligent Northland barbarian.
Ahead.
Alfred, dressed in black armor, held a flaming halberd in one hand, and gave the order of "it's time to eat". Rush to the front of the battle line. He was like a tiger rushing into the flock, the red light shining and flowing, it was bound to take the life of at least one enemy, it was not that there were no archers who shot arrows at him, but even the three-edged armor-piercing arrows could not penetrate his heavy armor, let alone the ordinary arrows in the hands of these archers?
As long as it's not an arrow to his skull. Alfred completely ignored it directly with the heavy armor on his body. Compared with Sean's lightness and swiftness, Alfred's wide opening and closing movements are as brave as the gods of the earth.
Forty wolf-like soldiers with steel wings rushed after Alfred. Most of the time, they can't get any success, often when they first spot a person, Alfred has already rushed over and staggered past his opponent. I saw a flash of fire. It is to cut the body in two, so that it goes to the back. As soon as they spotted the enemy, they threw their spears in their hands.
I learned this hand from Anno.
For these northern barbarians, the spear in their right hand and the heavy shield in their left hand are not worth the sun at all. And with Alfred taking the lead, the courage of these Northland barbarians is even more fearless, most of the arrows shot are blocked by heavy shields, and the few that hit the body are only slightly injured, as long as they don't shoot at the vital point, they don't pull it out like Anno, they still have the strength to fight again. Only a handful of people who accidentally break the arrow with too much force will feel the intense pain on their body.
Alfred led a sharp knife that ploughed his enemies from right to left like a cheese slice.
The flames that erupted from Cecilia's fireballs formed a watershed, just as William had painted before.
In the inner circle of the line of fire, after Sean cleaned up the opponent and sent Anno and several seriously injured Northland barbarians down, nearly thirty Northland barbarians immediately returned to the battle line and began to assist Sean in cleaning up the remaining enemies. They learned from Anno's one-handed throwing gun, as long as there is a trace of the enemy, it is enough to throw a shot, even if it does not kill the enemy but only surprises the enemy.
Because then Sean will rush over to intercept it.
And the outer ring of the line of fire, after being plowed by Alfred, has already begun to plow a second time in reverse.
As for the first front on the left, William was the least worried, because with the cooperation of nearly a hundred archers and twenty steel-winged soldiers, it was the fastest to collapse the battle line, just waiting for Alfred to strike left and right in the center, and the enemy remaining in the inner circle had absolutely nowhere to escape.
It's as easy as catching a turtle in an urn.
Although the war was still going on, William knew that the outcome of the battle in the south had been decided from the moment Cecilia sent a series of fireballs just now.
It's just that his face was a little disappointed, because in this battle, he didn't expect an officer.
With William's strength, of course, it can be seen that except for a slight cooperation in the initial formation, after being counterattacked by him, they completely fell into a situation of fighting on their own, without any cooperation, and even the melee troops did not appear. Even the most stupid commander could not make such a mistake, so William understood that his troops in this battle situation were completely ignored by the commander of the opposing side.
A war without a commander was not a war at all in William's eyes.
Rather, slaughter. (To be continued.) )
