Chapter 167 167Sudden turn
"They are here! Get ready to fight!"
The moment the undead launched an attack, Tyrio Fordine, who was the first to be alert, immediately shouted and reminded everyone.
Everyone hurriedly stopped all the movements at hand, took a 12% spirit, and made a combat posture towards the rapid rushing enemy. The priests who had originally treated the wounded were all retreating to the rear. The fierce battle center was not where they should have appeared with weak bodies.
Including several legendary paladins, some paladins who still have the energy to cast blessing spells all appeared at their feet. The aperture consisted of pure sacred energy, which enclosed the whole body and slowly rose from bottom to top. During the ascension, the holy energy was constantly injected into the paladin's body, and finally slowly dissipated at the top of their heads.
Looking at these paladins, their armor and weapons radiate holy light. The brilliance of the light flows through the flow, forming an unbreakable golden armor defense line.
This is the "Holy Seal" spell that was gradually established after the establishment of the Silver Hand Knights, after the exploration and improvement of the members of the generation, and finally gradually formed. This is the sacred spell that every paladin must master at the beginning of training.
Even the Draenei garrison officers who are struggling to survive in a broken world, and even the Paladins in the Saint Light Legion, mostly master similar spells. Because as long as they are the cosmic origin power of the same attribute and are developed for a specific need, the methods of use may be different, but they are always in the presentation of spell models.
It can be said that this is the most basic Paladin toward the sacred spell.
Although it is basic, it is not mediocre. The Sacred Seal spell mainly infuses holy energy to weapons, which adds very considerable sacred damage to each attack, and can play a great killing role when fighting against the undead.
"Swoosh swish swish..."
The Rangers behind the front shot out a sparse rain of arrows, mixed with scattered spells, attacking the dead from afar, but not many casualties.
If you can get the support of the post-master at this time, your situation will definitely be much better. With them, maybe just a wave of carpet-type magic bombing can cause major casualties to the core elites of the natural disaster in front of everyone.
In the nearly one thousand mages, the casualties caused to the undead even more than all the coalition forces combined, and tens of thousands of undead died of various spells.
If these mages were not divided into many battle groups at this time, and under the leadership of middle and lower-level officers, the troops fighting on the chaotic battlefield might have faced several times more undead.
But as the battle progressed, the mage's shortcomings gradually became exposed, that is, the innate lack of battery life.
Even if they cast spells in turn, they always get the opportunity to take time to restore their mana, but until now, the battle has been carried out, the consumption of most mages' spirit and mana has exceeded half. Compared with the originally overwhelming spell bombing, the spell density on the slope has been reduced too much at this time, and it can hardly play a great role in the battlefield.
What is even more unoptimistic is that the slope where the mage is located was subjected to a large-scale raid from the undead, and it also faces uninterrupted long-range attacks from the natural disaster skeleton mage.
The Scourge Corps also knew that their threat was the greatest, and used a large number of troops to attack the slope. In order to protect the mage, the troops originally arranged around the slope fought hard. The mages were almost overwhelmed with little magic power, but they had to maintain the operation of the defensive barrier. On the other hand, they also had to support nearby battles and take into account the frontal battlefield.
These skeleton mages are just the most basic psychic creations, and the production process is very simple. They are given simple action ability. The psychic technique solidifies the casting instinct and will only mechanically pour spells onto the enemy's heads under the command of higher-level existences.
The number of spell casts by a skeleton mage depends on the total amount of undead energy infused during the creation process. Except for a small part, it can restore mana on its own, the remaining ones will be completely scrapped once the undead energy in the body are exhausted.
This seems to be a very weak unit, but quantitative change causes qualitative change. When the number of skeleton mages reaches a certain level, they have a very terrible suppression force. The firepower intensity in a short period of time can be several orders of magnitude higher than that of ordinary archers, which is very troublesome.
After all, due to its cost limitations, the standard armor cannot be attached with enhanced (enchanted) spells that can resist spell attacks.
Moreover, for the Scourge, the raw materials for making skeleton mages are everywhere on Lordaeron, which ultimately makes skeleton mages an important part of the Scourge’s human sea tactics and long-range strike forces.
Fortunately, a legendary powerful spellcaster, Drektal, was here. The old orc, under the escort of several frost wolf guards, walked towards the safe casting site behind. Soon, people saw dark clouds gathering above their heads, and "crackling" sounded constantly inside, and several blazing lightning flashed from time to time, as if there was a power of destruction, slowly condensed in the dark clouds...
When a huge stitching monster, which was extremely large and like a meat mountain, rushed to the Paladin formation with a butcher knife the size of a door panel, Moglani, the ashes, shouted and greeted him.
Countless sacred energy surged out of his body and instilled into this supreme artifact along his arms. It was strengthened by the razed crystal on the blade and transformed into a burning sacred flame.
Moglani roared, holding the hilt of the Ashes Messenger tightly and swept across the sword forcefully. Before he could touch the stitching monster, the sacred flames on the blade gushed out suddenly.
More than a dozen ghouls in the fan-shaped area were instantly burned to ashes, but the giant suture monster that deserved the same fate only had a charred burning mark on the belly burned by the Holy Flame, which obviously did not suffer much damage.
It seems that this suture monster is not only huge in size, but also has extraordinary flesh and blood used in the manufacturing process, but also has more undead energy, which is to have such a powerful defense.
But when the blade of the Ashes Messenger arrived, the stitching monster was not so lucky.
With a "brush", the saint's ability to strengthen the sharp ashes, the entire sword blade was penetrated into the belly of the suture monster, and it cut in and out without any obstacles, bringing out a piece of viscous blood mixed with internal organ fragments, and even a few spinal bones.
The body of the sewed monster suddenly faded and was no longer able to continue the previous slash. The soft and powerless butcher knife was easily blocked by Moglani. Then he held the ashes messenger and made a round in the air, slashing the head of the sewed monster and slashed it with his arms, so that it would no longer threaten, and would not stop at all, and continue to kill the oncoming undead spirits.
...
No matter how elite the undead is, he will never escape the situation of being restrained by the holy light. Following the legendary paladins is the most powerful paladin in the Silver Hand Knights. Even though he is a little tired, he is still full of fighting spirit.
Whether it is the resurrected high elves or the special ghoul suture monster, these corrupt lives are cut down layer by layer like wheat.
Although the Blood Knight has not been trained for a long time and is mostly not proficient in the sacred spells, he has honed his superb combat skills over the long years, and his record is not inferior to that of the Paladin of Silver Hand. The Blood Knight's weapons are mostly swords and shields, or two-handed swords. They are often more agile in fighting than human paladins, fully leveraging the rapid advantages of the blood elves, causing great casualties to the relatively clumsy undead.
Just when the Ashes Messenger showed his power, Tirio Ford also attracted much attention. Every time the Silver Hand Warhammer swung, it could leave a golden trajectory in the air. The undead who was wiped by the holy energy of the hammer head was either dead or injured. The first paladin, who was over 50 years old, almost became a vacuum area within two meters of his body. No matter how fast the undead poured in, it could not get close to him.
"Click!"
When the people on the battlefield heard the explosion, dozens of thunder and lightning bolts as thick as arms had fallen from the sky, intertwining into a massive lightning storm, hitting the densest places of the undead. For a moment, dust flew, remaining limbs flew across, and countless undead were blown into pieces.
Unlike the thunderstorms in nature, several of the particularly thick lightning bolts lasted for a long time, and even ravines plowed out on the ground. The dead souls near the ground were killed directly. Those farther away were paralyzed by the power of thunder transmitted from the ground and killed by the paladins without any effort.
In a very short period of time, the battle was almost one-sided, until hundreds of angry guards entered the battlefield.
There was a trace of chaos in the front.
The angry guards strode forward, and some simply swept away the undead blocking in front of them. They swung the heavy sword in their hands and slashed at the paladins in a straightforward manner. The huge power gave them extremely fast attack speed. Some people had no time to react, and the body-protecting shield was shattered and the body-separated ended.
The sound of weapons attacks sounded one after another, and the angry guards were half a body higher than the humans and the blood elves, which gave them the advantage in the battle.
As a wave of evil energy with bats flying inside suddenly came, a fearful demon king came directly in front of the Ashes Messenger. Seven or eight death knights launched a siege on Tirio, and the other strong men were also restrained by the sudden appearance of powerful enemies, and the situation deteriorated in vain.
After raising his hand to summon a snowstorm to block the demon, Itonis took time to take a look at Angma, whose condition made him very worried.
Angma is still in a state of trance, and seems to be completely immersed in communication with the Strike of Flames. No matter how Itonis calls, there is no response. Every minute or second, the magic fluctuations from the Strike of Flames become stronger and stronger...
