Chapter 98 The first battle, the expansion of the skeleton army!
"We should get going too."
Lin Yuan looked at the orc army in front of him and said immediately.
In this case, it is absolutely impossible to choose to avoid fighting.
Moreover, not only must we not avoid fighting, we must also find ways to reduce the casualties of the garrison as much as possible.
Because only in this way is it possible to complete the hidden mission.
After Lin Yuan gave the order, Artoria, Ugesar, and Kailan immediately led their troops to charge!
You know, with the double blessing of [Skeleton Throne] and [Skull of the Skeleton King], the attributes of the Dark Skeleton Knight are comparable to those of the seventh-level arms.
Facing the miscellaneous orc army in front of us, it was simply a dimensionality reduction attack.
Soon, three thousand dark skeleton knights, like a torrent of darkness, directly broke through the defense line of the orc army!
One thousand two hundred flame mages also began to chant spells, continuously condensing exploding fireballs, and blasted away in the direction of the orc army!
Even the four hundred royal griffons launched a surprise attack in mid-air!
For the clumsy orcs, the Royal Griffin with the ability to fly is simply a killer weapon!
Moreover, the Royal Griffin's attack power is extremely powerful.
Even the rough-skinned orcs cannot withstand the sharp claws of the Royal Griffin.
Unfortunately, the number of Royal Griffins is still too small, and their lethality is really limited.
Although the orc army has an absolute advantage in terms of numbers, the overall strength of these orcs is still too weak.
Under the fierce attack of Lin Yuan's troops, large swathes of orcs fell.
Artoria and Ugesar both showed extremely strong fighting prowess.
Facing these two S-class heroes, the orcs below level seven cannot even withstand a single blow.
However, the best performer was Kailan.
After all, both Artoria and Ugesar mainly focus on single-target attacks.
But Kailan is different. Her life drain is a group attack skill.
In boss battles, the performance may not be that great.
But it is absolutely first-class when used to clean up miscellaneous soldiers.
Only then did Lin Yuan remember that he had a [Sacred Tree Fruit] in his hand.
I don’t know if this fruit can have any effect on Kailan.
This battle lasted for a full half hour.
Tens of thousands of orcs were completely defeated by Lin Yuan and his team of garrison troops.
On the battlefield, corpses were strewn everywhere, most of them were the corpses of orcs.
However, even so, William's army also suffered a certain degree of casualties.
Although the proportion of casualties was not large, the opponent's goal was achieved.
Lin Yuan walked to William's side and asked, "Have you experienced raids like this many times?"
"right."
William smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "These orcs are as disgusting as cockroaches. They come over to harass you from time to time, but they can't be driven away at all."
"A raid of this scale usually takes place every four to five hours."
"Under such circumstances, the soldiers have no rest at all."
"Moreover, they do this just to consume our troops."
"When they are almost exhausted, they will launch a fierce attack on us."
"For us, this is the ultimate test."
After hearing this, Lin Yuan couldn't help but nodded.
It must be said that there is a reason why William can serve as commander.
At the very least, he had already sensed the enemy's intentions.
It's a pity that even so, he has no good way and can only choose to resist.
If it cannot resist, Carlton Fortress may not be able to escape the fate of destruction.
At this moment, even Chen Bei realized the difficulty of this hidden task.
Originally, he thought that it would not be too difficult if he only needed to hold on for three days.
But now it seems that within these three days alone, they will face countless waves of attacks from the orc army!
If it were anyone else, I'm afraid they would be ready to give up on the mission.
But fortunately, Lin Yuan still has a trump card in his hand.
He looked at William and said directly: "Commander William, can the orc corpses on the battlefield be mine?"
"If necessary, I can also pay for it."
Hearing this, William couldn't help being slightly startled: "What do you want these orc corpses for?"
"But since you need it, just take it. We will pile them together and burn them anyway."
"You know, if these corpses are not disposed of in time, they can easily cause a plague."
Lin Yuan nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will handle these corpses properly."
At this moment, Qian Xiaozhuang and the others were all confused and had no idea what Lin Yuan was going to do with these orc corpses.
Only Chen Bei's eyes shone because he knew in his heart that Lin Yuan could transform all these corpses into skeleton soldiers!
With the help of everyone, all the corpses of the orcs were collected in front of Lin Yuan.
Looking at the mountains of corpses in front of him, even Lin Yuan couldn't help feeling a little excited.
I don't know how many skeleton soldiers can be transformed from such a large number of corpses.
Lin Yuan had already roughly calculated it in his mind.
If they want to complete this hidden mission based on their current military strength, it is simply impossible.
But fortunately, he still has the treasure [Skull of the Skeleton King] in his hand.
In the eyes of others, the battlefield was like a meat grinder, but in Lin Yuan's eyes, it was the source of military power.
The more corpses there are on the battlefield, the larger the skeleton army he can summon.
Soon, the treasure's ability was activated, and black magic arrays appeared in front of Lin Yuan!
The mountain of corpses in front of him was quickly swallowed up into the black magic circle, like a mountain of corpses slowly sinking to the bottom of the lake.
Transformation officially begins!
The magic circle continued to rotate, blooming with a pitch-black light!
Immediately afterwards, one after another, white skeletons walked out of the magic circle!
Looking at this scene in front of them, Qian Xiaozhuang and others had expressions of surprise in their eyes!
They obviously didn't expect that Lin Yuan had such a special method!
Because the number of corpses was too large, the transformation process lasted for more than ten minutes.
And these tens of thousands of corpses were transformed into 40,000 first-order skeletons.
Forty thousand first-level skeletons can be fused and transformed into 1,250 sixth-level dark skeleton knights!
After a series of operations, the number of Dark Skeleton Knights under Lin Yuan immediately exceeded the four thousand mark!
