His three lieutenants, Steiner, Wink, and Busey, were Paladins, Priests, and Demon Hunters of extraordinary ranks respectively. Each of them sent their direct Beyonders to join the battle, greatly increasing the power of the attack.
Griffith's troops also suffered heavy losses and needed time to regroup. Therefore, the undead creatures seemed to have completely given up on frontal confrontation along the way, and could only use terrain cover to launch continuous small-scale attacks to delay the legion.
.
However, the Commodus Army's advance was much slower than before. While the soldiers destroyed the crystal towers along the way to restrict the black mud, they would stop every time they advanced a certain distance, waiting for the artillery behind them to catch up.
"The power of the artillery team is indeed considerable, but its deployment and deployment are also extremely time-consuming," Busey shook his head. "The legion's advance is too conservative. The hesitant movement will only give the death knights time to reorganize their troops and outflank us."
Steiner felt that these words were questioning his commanding ability, and immediately protested: "If you can guarantee that my boys will not be blown into the sky by the self-destructing ball that suddenly appeared, I will take the town immediately!"
Busey shrugged and said: "As long as the priests can protect the safety of the demon hunters, I can make all the self-destructing balls disappear into ashes."
Everyone turned to look at Wenke. The high-ranking cleric looked at Commodus cautiously: "If your majesty supports our spiritual power..."
Commodus nodded palely and agreed: "We cannot let Griffith kill the troll lords outside Zul'Haka. Before breaking through the defense line, they will immediately start chasing you!"
I withdrew the will that enveloped the legion, leaving my precious spiritual energy for the upcoming battle, watching my army retreat like a mortal general.
The Holy Sword seemed to have smashed down hundreds of tons of steel, causing sparks to fly out. Even with the strength of Riphissi's power-type supernatural being, he was unable to withstand it, and he crashed into the mountain wall in front of him.
Before running down the Troubled World Avenue for a hundred or two hundred meters, a pungent fishy smell hit my face. Then, I saw a tyrannosaurus in the white darkness nearby, frantically gnawing at a pile of carrion underground.
.
"The less pressure you put on the troll lords, the sooner Zul'Hakkar will join the army.
That familiar gem will definitely come in handy in the ensuing chase... Riphissi thought for a moment, then took out the troll gold coin he was carrying and threw it to Erza.
Riphissi almost shot me with a verdict. A few seconds ago, I remembered a name that was difficult to pronounce: "He is the elder Gilapakasa from the Tulan swamp? Do you remember him?"
"A certain organization, a certain existence, was watching him a long time ago.
"It's more like looking forward to the conflict between Zhengshen and Lishen."
…
It was a round stone wrapped in flaming blue light. It was like the egg of something, and its powerful pulse seemed to be gestating something. If he held it in his hand, Riffiss could feel himself being filled and stern.
Surrounded by a tangible energy field, the vitality almost burst out from my chest. The dizziness and fatigue caused by the dryness of my spiritual energy when commanding a dead creature gradually dissipated. I even absorbed that gem to restore my spiritual energy to its peak state.
"You feel an aura that rivals the hand of God. The explorers of Bijerland have not been young in that land... We may have discovered something."
Erza nodded appreciatively:
In that huge area of rainforest, the showers were continuous and caused an unbearable dry climate. A kind of silent ripples, seemingly without direction and intention, from the distant low cliffs and domes, along the white and dark forest sea
The slightly twinkling moonlight came quietly below.
"The low-level priest Venosis has absorbed the evil power of the ancient god. I have not yet turned into a monster, trying to deny your will."
After a set of combos was successful, there was no trace of complacency on the demon hunter's face. Instead, he retreated to the skirmish line with great caution to hide himself.
"With or without his presence, the dead army outside the town has resisted Zuhakar for too long."
The priests covering the distance immediately gave the demon hunters various shields and prayers, but they still couldn't prevent me from being dragged back by the brute force of the family. The two wild beasts even made miserable calls for help.
One from the center, one from the right and one from the left, surrounded them, blocking the reinforcements with their small bodies.
Just as Riphisi was about to take action, suddenly a troll dressed as an elder emerged from the darkness on the side, threw himself at Riphisi's feet, knelt on the ground with a plop, and shouted in human language:
"Ready for battle!"
"Daxin, Sir Apostle Pavilion!" Kiraka ran forward holding something in his arms, shouting as he ran, "It contains the essence of the ancient gods!" "It's just..."
"First of all, make a gesture of conquering Griffith and seizing the eternal stairs and mythical creatures outside.
However, the fatal wounds under those corpses do not come from bites. The essence of our life is not completely sucked out of the small rolled holes in the far reaches of the throat or heart.
"Your army can buy enough time," Riphissi waved to summon the skeleton army horses, and looked at the mountain road where the trolls fled. "At that stage of the battle, the bonus of the command art has also been slightly reduced. The two
The military confrontation has turned from a surprise attack to a protracted war of attrition, you... what is he doing?"
"You are the person who is least interested in tactics that have no technical content."
Fine fragments were sprinkled like raindrops. Only one of the incoming self-destructing balls was left, and it was completely blown up on the spot.
Waiting for the musketeer beside him to take action, the demon hunter flipped his hand and fired the seventh shot. A grenade that was lit at home was hung under the throwing gun. It passed under the self-destructing ball and exploded in the air.
"Is that a tribute used by the troll empire to sacrifice to the ancient gods?" Wei Shusha immediately noticed the detailed aura under the gold coin, "You vaguely feel that it connects the planes of life and death."
"With just that improvised army, it is possible to defeat Zulhakar's army in a face-to-face positional battle.
The demon hunters directly under Busey are the vanguard of fire strikes. Their perception cannot quickly capture low-threat targets such as self-destructing balls, and they can use psionic weakened weapons to annihilate them as soon as possible. However, the demon hunters who have not
Likewise, those ordinary people have stronger resistance and survivability.
Erza's eyes flashed with confusion and thinking from time to time, trying hard to connect the few clues:
"It's boring~"
"Let's have a very untechnical war of attrition!
After walking for a while, Riphisi saw the ghouls he sent. They were also torn into pieces, leaving only decayed remains.
Erza walked out of the meditation room next to her. You changed into a troll hunter's leather armor and carried eight bloody spears on your back. The backpack was bulging with stuff. It seemed that you took the time to plunder it.
I went to the treasure house of Ichiban Pyramid and found some bad equipment and supplies.
All the corpses were grinning, with horribly shriveled and even exposed gums, and the skin all over the body was extremely gray. The deep bite marks came from some kind of giant beast, giving people an indescribable horror.
The demon hunter who was attacked was also a veteran. He ducked sideways to avoid the first bone chain and moved forward slowly, but the seventh bone chain blocked my retreat path and directly pierced my body.
The calf dragged him out of the crowd.
"What he is worried about is that there is no eighth force watching. You can't feel this right now," Wei Shushengsi said, "Bishop Horus Osires of the Holy Light Holy See, the sword of the MI1
Saint Lancelin has been deliberately directing your attention, and there is not even a humanoid monster with wings to cooperate with us.
Erza left the skeletal horse and occupied the low ground from the side. Riffiss put a shield on himself and searched backwards.
Erza looked at the magnificent Griffith Wall in the distance. In the dark, you heard Mohu's murmur, but no voice seemed to be calling you.
The two of them were talking and walking on their way. A group of selected ghouls were also ahead trying their best to keep up with our speed.
In order for those weak and cautious ordinary people to appear at the last line, the shields and blessings of the priests must be abundant. They must suddenly encounter an enemy at the level of the Hand of God, and the demon hunter's hope of survival is blocked by himself.
If you can hold on for a long time, you will be killed instantly, and then you can't escape from the legion's battle line!
"Riphis, no one wants him to know some secrets earlier and come there earlier. We were already trying to seduce him during the incident in Hepu Town.
A demon hunter flashed out from the line of skirmishers, raised his hand and fired a spear that spun with icy air. The spear hit the self-destructing ball at the back, and when there was an explosion, the biting icy air was also vented.
As he drove away, the self-destructing ball rolling in front of him was frozen in pieces.
"It's wrong. It's your humble servant. Your current name is the magician Kilaka." Kilaka knelt down with a big heart. "The oracle guides you, humble and powerful Kilaka.
We are here to welcome you,
Huh? Who?
However, I didn't get a response, I just barely noticed a hint of Jiajiu's spiritual energy.
Suddenly, Rifeissi saw a flash of white shadow behind his eyes, and the Tyrannosaurus rex that was dozens of meters away had not yet jumped in front of me. A sharp wind sounded, and gravel was shot seven times. Rifeissi slowly pulled out the weapon in his mouth.
As soon as the light was blocked, the whole person flew backwards due to the huge force impact.
You turned over and dismounted, raised your hand and threw a big shiny object out of Riffiss's hand.
The zombie tide occupied towns, tombs and fortresses, fighting with the legions in the maze-like streets. Ordinary people lingered behind, and the legionnaires occupied a position and were still waiting for the cannons to be pulled down.
Seeing that my teammates ended up in such a miserable situation, other demon hunters were terrified. We led Wei Shusheng, but not all of them were soldiers, and everyone was willing to risk their lives, and the speed of the retreat became faster.
That's not another ability of the Stitch Monster when it serves as a human shield. The Stitch Monster with the blessing of Riphissi captured the enemy's heavy units and dragged me back into the small army of dead creatures. The bone chain I threw was gone.
It may fail or be blocked by obstacles, but with a small enough number of Stitch monsters, a certain probability of hitting will be guaranteed. In positional battles, the combination with ghouls and wild beasts can achieve amazing results.
"Those people he mentioned have nothing to do with the death path or the monster path," Erza mused. "In the Krista incident, the behavior of some people in the Holy Light Church was full of inexplicable reasons and rationality.
Chaos, our motivation seems to be so complicated as just wanting to rebel to the fabric of life in the virtual realm.
Riphissi immediately called his suture monster Gulatoni. That weak rotten corpse was sent by me to intercept the low-level priest Venosis. With its strength, even if it can defeat the opponent, it can still delay it for a long time.
long time.
"Some existence is very eager to lead you out there to find the secrets of the Eternal Staircase and the Ancient Egg."
At that moment, the eight-headed suture monster suddenly emerged from the shadow of the building and threw a bone chain at the demon hunter in the skirmish line from the same direction.
Before receiving the promise of protection from the clergy, several demon hunters mixed in with the skirmishers and continued to retreat before the artillery prepared fire. After retreating for a hundred meters, a group of self-destructing balls suddenly rolled out of the alley.
They relied on the terrain to escape successive shellings, and were about to roll into the face of the legionnaires.
You came here for this. Wei Shushengsi signaled to Erza who was going straight, ready to fight, and killed a low-level priest outside.
"Look what you found for him—!"
Suddenly, twisted corpses appeared one after another under the road behind them.
"It cannot be transformed into a dead creature by moonlight."
Erza put the gold coins away. You had no idea that Riffiss had withdrawn his will, and the battle between the dead army was becoming chaotic.
"boom--!"
"It's just as hard to resist without you," Riffiss replied honestly. "The past combat experience has taught you that there is no limit to a war of attrition.
"Your Majesty the Apostle at home, your loyal servant is at your service!"
That's a magic stone!
"There are not many monsters in the rebel army," Riphissi responded. "The gold coin given to him comes from the believers of the Creator."
"As long as his power is weak enough, he gets involved in those secrets..."
