Section 220 The Flower of Evil (2)
Sid's second attack was much more violent than the first one.☆→☆→,
First of all, the mages in the legion participated in the battle. Sid had two high-level mages and a mage team, with fifty or sixty mages from low to middle level, and the captain of the chief and deputy captain were the two high-level mages.
When a mage who is less than a high-level fighter alone, even if the attack power is considerable, or even some can threaten high-level warriors, they are still fragile. The defensive spells they master are limited in effect and mental power often form a bottleneck. Unless they concentrate on mastering defensive spells like summoners, the summoners are more proficient in defense spells, and they often rely on the strength of summoned beasts in attack, and they are weak.
Therefore, mages below the advanced level like to join certain teams when going out for adventures. In this way, they are frizzy and warriors who are good at melee combat can fully cast their spells and bring hurricane-like damage to the enemy.
This is how the mages in the legion are. With ordinary morale, even the warriors of the rank attack or defend in advance, they can calmly cast spells from a certain distance.
Sid's mages are divided into three parts. The two advanced mages cast spells independently, and all the remaining mages form a team to cast spells.
Under the magic chanting, the two advanced mages each used two advanced spells, and the high-temperature fire clouds, dark vortexes, and the blade of Frost attacked Bofeng City. The last time was a small earthquake, causing the walls of Bofeng City to shake, but finally did not collapse. Although there was still a hole there under the continuous attack of the catapult, a hole appeared there, causing a bloodier battle.
In addition, the casting team of middle and low-level mages each uses their best spells. Under certain command, they try to choose a direction to smash various middle and low-level spells like storms. Of course, their spell threat is not as powerful as that of high-level mages, but they win in a rapid manner, and the damage caused is no worse than the ultimate moves of two high-level mages, and they win in a much more sustainable way. After the two high-level mages cast a large-scale high-level attack spell with huge energy, they had to stop and swallow potions to restore their magic.
With the assists of magicians and siege equipment, this wave of attack by the Sixth Legion is very different from the rapid attack that failed yesterday. This is the true strength of the Imperial Official Legion.
It also caused huge damage to Bofeng City. After all, although Bofeng City got muskets, Solomon also tried his best to help them gain geographical advantages and defend the city, but the enemy was willing to take the initiative to attack the city. However, under the attack of the mage, the militia in Bofeng City suffered heavy casualties.
After all, although they received some military training, the time was too short, and the first day of the battle was considered a little advantage. On the second day of the battle, when the enemy charged again, they were very aggressive. Many people forgot the instructor's words during training, so they simply stood up and shot at the approaching enemies on the city wall in groups.
This did kill more enemies, but it also became a living target for the mages. The fire clouds, vortexes, and ice blade wheels attacked, and the people in Bofeng City fell down like mowed grass.
Most large-scale attack spells are advanced spells above level seven. These spells are not as powerful as single spells of the same level among advanced spells, but they are most suitable for use on the battlefield and can harvest a large amount of lives of ordinary warriors.
Sid looked at this step happily, and his hand holding the sheath tightly relaxed a little.
Not only the wizards participated in the battle, but more than a dozen pastors from the Matthew Church also participated in the battle.
Among them are several who can use the gospel aura to exert the soldiers who are siegeing the city. This is the embodiment of the power of faith. The legion warriors under the aura see their piety in their faith will be inspired by the power of the aura. The more determined the faith is, the more pious the aura will stimulate his potential and enhance his combat power.
Other priests are using healing techniques with recovery effects. Although these healing techniques cannot save everyone, they have a huge inspiration effect. Imagine a warrior who is about to die with the enemy. After fighting to the death, he found that the enemy had fallen to the ground and died unwillingly. He should have fallen down, but at the last moment, he was saved by the priest's healing technique in time. How inspiring is this?
This effect will make many of the chargers feel lucky and no longer afraid to fight with the enemy in hand-to-hand combat. This is particularly obvious at the break of the city wall that was destroyed by earthquake techniques. Sid's subordinates rushed into the city wall for a while until the blood griffin's axe warrior Liqi and the big Bobby appeared there, and led a team of reinforcements to force them back.
"Persevere, persevere!"
The city wall was washed away by the spell blood and there were too many casualties and the one who was lucky enough to die hid in the next wall building.
This gave the attacking side an opportunity to take advantage of it. Finally, with the help of the mage's assist, he climbed the city wall along the siege ladder without considering the casualties and injuries.
Fortunately, Kehelin arrived in time. He led his guard directly to him and started a close battle with the enemy who rushed up on the city wall. After a while, his other partners, Kou Qi, Lida, Nafeiya, Lili, etc., also appeared one after another, smashing the Imperial Army's attack.
Immediately afterwards, the senior ranks of the Blood Griffon Team also launched a counterattack. They realized that even if there were muskets, a weapon that greatly enhanced the combat power of ordinary people, they would not be able to fight against the mages in the enemy.
Although defending the city can certainly give the militias in Bofeng City a certain geographical advantage, but their location is relatively rigid, which just brings great convenience to the mages' attacks.
At this time, the two high-level mages temporarily turned off due to the magic consumption, but another team of middle and low-level mages cast spells in turn but they have not stopped casting them yet. If they allow them to continue, they will suppress the defense of Bofeng City, and the enemy will soon climb the city wall for the second time.
The only way is to counterattack, destroy the passive situation and rhythm in front of you, avoid greater losses, and then see who can hold on.
However, Kehelin also knew that the training time of the militia in Bofeng City was too short. In addition to relying on the muskets in his hands to defend the city, he might not be able to win in field battles.
Fortunately, the Blood Griffin also has a mage like the Dark Demon Envoy Prous, and it is not powerless to fight back at all.
Prous first spent nearly half of his magic to cast a Desolate Sky. Desolate Sky is a sixth-level spell that can create a dark area that affects external vision but is not affected by itself. This spell was his favorite to use when he and Lily cooperated with their actions.
However, the magic required this time was more than ten times that of the past, because the area should be expanded as much as possible, which will help the militia.
The effect of the Shadow Sky will greatly reduce the attack effect of those middle and low-level mages, because the spells they cast are either single-type or small-range attack effects, relying on the joint and rendered attacks in the same direction, forming a coverage kill, unlike the attack spells of the two high-level mages that were originally attacking effects on a large scale.
After being affected by the dark sky, to see through the cover of the sky, you need to have advanced Hawkeye or homogeneous spell effects to ignore it. Most mages in the mage team definitely do not have mastered it, and their attack is equivalent to throwing stones into the darkness.
Of course, the blood griffin's counterattack was more than that. Prous then used a poisonous cloud technique under the shadow of the sky to fight back against the Imperial Army.
Although this spell is not a high-level spell, it is a rare large-scale attack in intermediate spells. It is much more powerful than the Chaos Cloud in second-level spells. First of all, the scope is much larger. Secondly, the Chaos Cloud has a slight psychedelic mental effect, mainly assisted, while the Poison Cloud is highly poisonous.
The poisonous cloud technique is definitely not effective against advanced ranks or enemies with strong vitality, but it is just right on the battlefield at this time.
Even if you cannot kill yourself on the spot, it is inevitable that the poisoned person's combat power will decline.
Fortunately, the priests brought by Sid were there, and they quickly reacted and used purification techniques and detoxification techniques to eliminate the influence of the poison cloud.
But this also gave the city guard a chance to breathe. Even after a moment, the two high-level mages recovered a certain amount of magic and used their own large-scale attack spells for the third time, the war once became attacking and defending.
In the second round of defense, the two sides bit each other like two beasts. Until the night came, Sid ordered his retreat unwillingly.
This time, the casualties and injuries of both sides were much heavier than the first day's battle. The organization of one brigade of the Imperial Army was almost cancelled, and the other light infantry brigade also lost more than half, and the rest were also seriously injured.
Bofeng City is slightly better, but this is slightly better. In fact, the number of casualties may not be less than that of the Imperial Army. The two attacks by enemy raids were very heavy, and the casualties were reduced after the shadowy sky curtain.
It is a little better, but fortunately, Bofeng City can still replenish a lot of manpower. Most of the young and strong men in the territory under Bofeng City are in the city at this time.
So although the Imperial Army had regarded Bofeng City as a formal treatment on this day, instead of despising the object at the beginning, Bofeng City still took a little advantage on the surface.
But Khelin had already seen the hidden worries of the battle later, that is, in today's defensive battle, his side suffered too much loss under the attack of the enemy mage. Although the blood griffin also had Prous, Prous was behind the scenes of the shadows many times. The magic power could no longer be continued. If the intensity of the battle was still as intense as today, Bofeng City might have to last with his life, and the casualties would be greatly increased at that time.
Although other magic sword envoys Kou Qi and evil sword envoys Nafeiya also have certain spell casting abilities, the part of their fusion ranks that belong to the mage is all intermediate, and the spell abilities they master are mostly for cooperation with themselves, and lack large-scale attack spells.
When Kehelin was worried, his friends wanted to help him very much.
Lily and Belicina decided to go to the enemy camp at night to assassinate the enemy commander and help Bofeng City overcome this level.
Coincidentally, Sid's side also decided to send a special attack team led by Dorian and composed of ranks to sneak into the city. If it can be assassinated, it will be assassinated. If it cannot be assassinated, it will depend on whether it can raid the city gate. Sid will personally take charge of the troops. If it can open the city, it will be spared no time to attack at night.
So it was a chaotic night. Sid was attacked by two assassins. Even with his high-level rank, he was almost injured, because one of the ones who took action was the Shadow Blade Killer, and the other one was a semi-spirited creature. If he hadn't been sleeping at all and had been waiting for Dorian's night attack, he might have suffered a greater loss.
As a result, the two assassins were also injured and fled under his counterattack, which made him furious.
The special attack team led by Dorian sneaked into the city to find it unlikely to assassinate Khelin, so he raided the city gate, but Khelin and the others were also wary of it. In addition to the superficial guards, the evil sword envoy Nafeiya led the team to protect him secretly.
As a result, Dorian and the special attack team composed of elite troops in the army suffered a great loss. They were either shot to death or killed by Nafeiya and the others. Even Dorian himself was sniped by Max and fled back to the camp with arrow wounds. (To be continued.)
