"Very good!" Very satisfied with the high efficiency of Ralph's men, Roger smiled and patted the knight on the shoulder: "Thanks to your help, we were able to make all preparations for the battle before the war!"
Feeling very embarrassed about Roger's compliment, Ralph lowered his head and said, "You're flattering me!"
Anyway, complimenting someone is free, and it can also improve the other person's good impression of him. Roger has always been very generous in this regard. [ ] He wanted to praise the knight a few more words, but a desolate horn sounded on the platform of the crossbow bed.
.The expressions of Roger and Ralph changed for a moment. The sound of the horn was a warning from the whistle that the undead creatures had finally launched an attack!
Neia was in a very bad mood.
Recently, the Lich is conducting a very important magic experiment. If it succeeds, it will take its strength to a higher level, so it is inevitable that it will neglect the management of the Lunde Peninsula. Who would have thought that just because of such an oversight, there would be something wrong?
A group of desperate humans entered the Lunde Peninsula.
Originally, it was okay. Anyway, the Lunde Peninsula is now a world of undead creatures. Any living creature that comes in will sooner or later become a member of Neia's undead army.
But this time the situation seemed to be a little different. Neia felt that these humans brought the aura of divine power that she hated the most. And this sacred aura was so powerful that even Neia, who had lived for hundreds of years, had never seen it before.
, which made the Lich instinctively feel danger.
Neia felt that if these humans continued to operate on the Lunde Peninsula, it would very likely destroy the undead order that had been established with great difficulty, and even his own safety would be threatened. This was a situation that the Lich could not tolerate under any circumstances.
She immediately decided to use all the power at her disposal to eliminate all these humans. So Neia stopped the almost suicidal attack of the Black Knight and his men, and instead let them surround the castle and wait for the arrival of reinforcements.
After these few days, half of the undead creatures on the Lunde Peninsula gathered here under Neia's order. The army of nearly 300,000 undead creatures, with at least several thousand levels of undead creatures, was so huge that
Neia felt confident, and the always cautious Lich finally decided to attack.
It is not much different from the usual tactics of undead creatures. The first strike is just to consume the enemy's strength and fighting spirit, so almost all of them are low-level undead creatures.
About 20,000 skeletons and zombies began to move towards the castle, attacking a section of the city wall about 100 meters long. It started to attack the enemy without hesitation. Neia's eyes flashed with a dark red light, showing that it had true intentions at this time.
Still very uneasy.
The closer it gets to the enemy's castle, the more certain the lich is that the sacred power that makes it so disgusted is indeed coming from the castle. This makes Neia even more determined to destroy the castle and destroy all the living things inside.
Determined to kill all creatures. As the governor of the Lunde Peninsula designated by Lord Moradi, the Lich will never allow even a little bit of sacred power to appear in his territory.
But one thing Neia didn't understand was that the holy power in the castle was not just a little bit, but so powerful that it could even use magic to fight against it. Neither the sacred power that the Seraph Archangel nor the Archangel statues could release was
A mere lich could withstand it. However, Roger did not want to reveal his strength at the moment, so he did not fully release the sacred power, which created such an illusion for Neia.
The lich always thought that there might be a group of clergy praying in the castle, or that humans even built a church in the castle, so there was just such a little sacred breath leaking out. In fact, if the lich knew that there was a blazing man in the castle in front of him,
If the archangel and archangel statues were here, they would have fled long ago. How could they dare to start a fight head-on?
Regardless of whether the Lich was negligent or did not do intelligence work, for whatever reason, Neia didn't know what Roger's trump card was, so she launched an attack rashly. Although from now on
, the undead creatures seemed to have a very good chance of winning, but the final result was very tragic.
However, Neia is just a lich and doesn't know any great prophecy skills. Of course she doesn't know what her fate will be at this moment. She just sends her men to the castle like a tide, hoping that the first blow can achieve what she planned.
Target.
"There are just a few guys here, it's obviously just a test." Roger on the city wall acted very calmly as the densely packed enemies came towards him, and ordered his soldiers to prepare for battle.
Twenty thousand undead creatures were not too many but not too few. Although Roger did not immediately use the trebuchet and crossbow bed, he still ordered the crossbowmen to go into battle first.
In fact, the role of crossbowmen against enemies such as undead creatures is very limited. After all, undead creatures are already dead. Unless their soul fire is extinguished, even if they shoot their vital points, it will not have much effect on them.
Big impact.
But now with the holy water created by Angela, the crossbowmen can also display their lethality. There are many earthen jars containing holy water placed on the city wall, and the crossbowmen will first dip their arrowheads in the holy water.
for a moment, then aim at the target and shoot.
Arrows dipped in holy water are very lethal to low-level undead creatures. Whether they are skeletons or zombies, as soon as they are shot, they will fall to the ground, and the soul fire in the eye sockets will quickly extinguish, turning into a pile of broken corpses.
The primary undead creatures move slowly and do not have any effective defense means. They are very easy targets for crossbowmen. After several rounds of arrow attacks, thousands of undead creatures have been wiped out. At this time, the surviving undead creatures
They also rushed under the city wall, and just like the first attack, they also began to climb up the city wall with their bare hands.
For the crossbowmen, attacking these undead creatures moving very slowly on the city wall was as easy as shooting at a fixed target. The longbowmen leaned out to shoot at the targets hanging on the city wall, almost all of their arrows
It will never miss, and each arrow can destroy an enemy.
However, the heavy crossbowmen could not attack the enemy from this angle. Aiming the heavy crossbow vertically downward would cause the arrows to fall out of the firing groove. So Roger ordered all the heavy crossbowmen to retreat and give up their positions to
Longbowmen attack.
Although the long-range attack ability was weakened by half at the last moment, the crossbowmen still eliminated a large number of undead creatures. At least one-third of the undead creatures fell halfway through the attack, greatly reducing the burden on the city's defense.
The pressure of heavily armored pikemen and half-armored swordsmen.
Seeing that the undead creatures that could crawl the fastest were already approaching the top of the city, Roger ordered the longbowmen to retreat and stand by, and the heavily armored spearmen and half-armored warriors officially came on stage. The soldiers launched a massacre against the undead creatures hanging on the city wall that could not fight back.
, any undead creature approaching the city head was attacked head-on without exception, and they all fell off the city wall and were shattered to pieces.
The battle lasted for about an hour, and less than half of the first wave of 20,000 undead creatures remained. The rest were all destroyed and became Roger's soul power income.
Feeling the power of the soul pouring into his body, Roger was very satisfied with the results of this battle. His men almost effortlessly eliminated more than 10,000 undead creatures. If this continues, even the enemies besieging the castle will be destroyed.
It's not that difficult to kill them all.
On the other side of the battlefield, Neia watched as her men were wiped out one by one, her eyes flashing red faster, but she didn't feel any distress at all. These low-level undead creatures were originally used as cannon fodder, even if they were all dead.
In other words, as long as it can consume the enemy's strength and fighting spirit, it's worth it.
According to Neia's experience, after fighting continuously for so long, weak humans will begin to feel tired and their fighting spirit will decrease. So it quickly ordered the second wave of men to start approaching the castle and continue to attack the enemy. In short
Those humans must not be given a chance to breathe.
When the undead creatures invaded the Lunde Peninsula two years ago, Neia used the same tactics to conquer human cities and fortresses one after another. The difference was that at that time, the Lich could only command tens of thousands of men, but now it
But it has an army of 30,000 undead. As long as Neia is willing, it can even mobilize another 200,000 undead army within ten days. With such a powerful force, the Lich feels that it will definitely win this war.
The second wave of undead creatures attacked more than the first wave, and their attack range was also wider than before. A nearly two hundred-meter-long city wall became their attack range. Neia ordered his men to attack at the right time.
The control was very good, and the two batches of undead creatures could just connect back and forth. Before the first wave of attacking undead creatures were wiped out, the second wave of undead creatures had already reached the top of the city.
Neia is very satisfied with the current battle situation. According to previous experience, human soldiers will soon collapse under such non-stop attacks. When the time comes, if more powerful super undead creatures are sent to launch a fatal blow, they can easily
He stormed the castle and killed all the living creatures inside.
The Lich sent out the third attack wave at the right time, and then confidently waited for the moment when the battle situation would develop in its favor and the human army would finally collapse.
However, Neia soon discovered that the situation of this battle was completely different from the previous ones. Although the lich's men continued to attack, the human soldiers on the city wall had no intention of retreating. On the contrary, they always maintained a high morale.
And full of energy, like a group of fighting machines that never know fear or fatigue.
"Asshole, why is this happening?" The Lich was angered by this completely unexpected situation and gave his subordinates a stern order: "Let the Skeleton Mammoth attack!"
