Chapter 330 The battle between the five lords on the mountain top [5K]
The blood moon was in the sky, and the stars were dim.
On the top of the mountain, the biting night wind, mixed with the smell of smoke and blood below the mountain, kept whistling past the ears of Zhou Wu and the other five lords, bringing a trembling chill.
At this time, not far from them and nearly 200 first-order subordinates, was an orderly and fully armed alien army.
At a glance, from the densely packed figures on the mountain road in the distance, it was roughly estimated that the number of people on the other side was almost the same as them.
At some point, a cold murderous aura began to emanate from the ranks of those short figures, and even the marching formation began to become more dense.
Needless to say, the other party obviously discovered their existence and was ready to kill.
At this moment, with the help of the torch that was constantly swaying in the opponent's hand, the several lords, who were sweating on their foreheads, finally saw the faces of the opponent's soldiers clearly one after another.
These soldiers were all wearing brown leather armor and were about one meter tall.
Although he is short in stature, his dark green rough skin, hideous and hideous face, and elephant-like broad and sharp ears give people a great sense of oppression.
Especially when this sense of oppression forms a unified giant whole.
That kind of change is not as simple as one plus one, but like a seaspout setting off huge waves, so terrifying that it almost makes people suffocate.
Boom, boom, boom.
As the other party's footsteps became clearer and more orderly, everyone present began to feel more and more trembling in their hearts.
"This is... Goblin?! Shouldn't this thing in the game be a weak experience monster? Why does it look so scary?"
Looking at the strong green-skinned soldiers in the distance, the cold blades shining in their hands, the long-haired male lord holding the gun took a few steps back again. If it weren't for the support of the long gun, he might have collapsed to the ground. .
Seeing such a murderous lineup, the other three young lords on the side were also full of panic. While their legs were weak, they tightly held their rough weapons, and their bodies could not stop trembling slightly.
Especially the two pretty female lords, their faces turned pale and they hid in the shadow of a boulder.
You know, not long ago, they were just a group of ordinary people living in the city. Where have you seen such a formation?
Most of the farmers and hunters also had panic expressions on their faces, causing the originally arranged attack formation at the mountain pass to become looser.
"Everyone, don't panic!"
Seeing the sharp drop in morale around him, Zhou Wu, the only one who could still maintain some composure, first gave a soft drink, and then continued: "Archers, prepare! Let these guys know that if they attack us, they will pay a heavy price!"
"Yes, that's right, one man is invincible here. If we rely on the terrain, the opponent may not be able to attack!"
At the front of the team, several professional warriors with first-level five-star or above strength also shouted quickly to signal other farmers to stabilize their positions.
However, judging from the white fingers that clenched their respective weapons and the beads of sweat on their heads, it was clear that the panic in their hearts was not much better than that of the others.
For a time, the shouts of Zhou Wu and several soldiers made the other subordinates who were a little confused visibly calm down.
Moreover, under the command of Zhou Wu, nearly 20 hunters in the last row also raised their bows and arrows, pointing their sharp arrows straight into the air, and made a throwing gesture.
"Launch!"
Not long after, the opponent seemed to have entered the shooting range, and the moment Zhou Wu shouted the order.
On the other side, more than a dozen huge strange green light balls also began to quickly condense and take shape in the opponent's team.
The next second, the hunter's arrow and the opponent's green light ball shot out from their respective camps almost simultaneously, drawing deadly trajectories in mid-air.
Whoosh whoosh!
Before the arrow hit the ground, the strange green ball that was speeding towards them had already roared towards them and hit the professional warriors at the front.
Due to the extremely fast rate of fire of this strange spell, the few warriors without shields in the front row were unable to dodge and collided with these strange green light balls.
boom! boom! boom!
The huge impact caused those soldiers who were caught off guard to be knocked away one after another.
In an instant, shrill screams rang out one after another.
I saw a burst of green smoke coming out of the armor and leather armor on these warriors. Before they fell to the ground, they all had expressions of pain and became unresponsive. They didn't know whether they were dead or alive.
At the same time, a pungent fishy smell began to fill the air.
On the other side, the arrows fired by the hunters only penetrated the neck of a Goblin soldier, causing him to fall on his back. The rest were blocked by the shields.
"The other party has a magician?!"
Seeing this strange and bloody scene, Zhou Wu began to sweat heavily on his forehead, and his heart became colder.
The two sides haven't officially fought yet, but more than half of the elite first-order warriors at the front have been killed or injured, while the other side has only been hit by an arrow.
In such a scene, when the numbers of both sides are almost equal, the outcome will naturally be decided.
Since all this happened in a flash of lightning, it was not until Zhou Wu reacted.
I saw those short and ferocious ugly Goblin soldiers, waving the sharp blades in their hands, shouting in a gibbering unknown language in a ferocious tone, and roaring towards me!
"Quick! Keep shooting! The farmers in the back row are pushing forward, and we must not let them break through the defense line!"
Looking at those menacing short figures, Zhou Wu wiped a handful of sweat and shouted again: "Behind us is a cliff of ten thousand meters, and there is no way to retreat!"
After hearing Zhou Wu's cry, the rest of the subordinates who looked nervous came back to their senses.
Accompanied by the sound of dense footsteps, with the assistance of the first-order nine-star heavy infantry in the front row, a new line of defense was quickly formed again.
At this moment, everyone clearly understood in their hearts.
The main thing is to guard this steep mountain pass that is more than three meters wide, and they still have a glimmer of hope!
On the other side, those capable Goblin soldiers were already rushing towards them at extremely fast speeds.
Bang!
The heavy infantryman at the front roared, raised his giant shield, and pushed forward.
The Goblin soldier who bore the brunt of the attack was directly knocked down the steep mountain path mixed with the gravel beneath his feet.
"Well done! Kill these damn greenskins!"
Seeing this scene, the morale of other subordinates around them immediately rose again.
The few remaining professional soldiers also stopped all the enemy soldiers who rushed up, and started fierce battles.
In this way, with the blessing of favorable terrain.
For a moment, the opponent's attack was obviously greatly hindered.
Seeing that the scene seemed to have stabilized, the other lords, including Zhou Wu, also breathed a sigh of relief.
Perhaps if the stalemate continues like this and the other party doesn't take advantage, they will retreat on their own, right?
However, the development of things was obviously not as simple as they imagined.
This seemingly even battle did not last long.
While the magicians in the opponent's back row continued to bomb, the Goblin soldiers who came one after another, through mutual cooperation and using their flexible and short bodies, quickly tore a large hole in the defense line of the professional soldiers, and then rushed forward in one fell swoop. Entering the second and third lines of defense composed of farmers and hunters.
At this point, as more and more enemy soldiers poured in, a melee began.
These ordinary subordinates, whose strength was only one-star and one-star at the first level, were naturally no match for the opponent. They had no choice but to retreat steadily while waving rough farm tools indiscriminately.
But no matter how hard they retreated, many farmers still screamed and fell to the sharp blades of the enemy soldiers.
For a moment, swords and swords clashed with each other, the smell of blood filled the air, and the swaying firelight reflected a series of green-skinned faces with a ferocious smile.
The five lords had already gathered at the back of the subordinate team under Zhou Wu's call.
Listening to the deafening shouts and screams, although there are still many subordinates blocking the front, everyone clearly understands that it is undoubtedly only a matter of time before the opponent reaches this point!
"Brother Zhou, we won't really die here, will we?"
I saw the young male lord wearing glasses, trying his best to direct his subordinates to push up, while trembling to Zhou Wu beside him.
"I don't want to die! I have just awakened my talent for practicing wind spells. It won't be long before I can become a magician!"
Before Zhou Wu could speak, a young female lord with shawl-long hair said in panic.
"I don't want to die either!"
Another young female lord with short hair and red eyes also nodded repeatedly.
And the long-haired male lord who was so angry just now had already turned pale with fear and tremblingly hid behind several people.
"Don't give up the last glimmer of hope, we must fight to the end!"
Holding the iron ax in his hand tightly, Zhou Wu took a deep breath and said with a solemn expression: "Maybe things will turn around!"
"Brother Zhou, you...you mean someone will come to save us?!"
Hearing this, the rather pretty short-haired female lord suddenly had an uncontrollable hope in her hazy eyes, and she quickly asked.
"Really?"
The young male lord wearing glasses also lit up his eyes, and then his expression dimmed again and said: "But, how can any lord have the strength to come here on a cliff like ours?"
"Yes, in such a dangerous area where war is happening, other lords can't even hide, let alone someone who will take the initiative to come."
The long-haired male lord trembled with his lips and followed in despair.
At this point, the moods of the five people couldn't help but fall to the bottom again.
At this moment, a group of short and capable Goblin soldiers had broken through the last line of defense and rushed straight towards the five people!
"Human race, die!"
With a hoarse roar, the Goblin captain at the front jumped up, the sharp blade in his hand flashed with cold light, and struck straight at the young short-haired female lord.
Zhou Wu and the other four were also surrounded, and they slashed at them without hesitation with bloody sharp blades accompanied by a dull sound of breaking through the air.
"If there really is a God in this world, please save us..."
Knowing that she was doomed, the short-haired female lord turned pale and slowly closed her eyes.
In the next second, these five lords will definitely be covered in blood!
Whoosh whoosh!
At this moment, a series of agile figures carrying sharp blades were like dazzling meteors piercing the sky, shooting towards them with lightning speed.
Under the blood moon, along with deadly and extremely fast cold-colored trajectories, among the flashes of swords and shadows, the Goblin soldiers who were brandishing sharp blades and were about to massacre five people just now screamed and fell down.
"?!"
This scene made the five lords who were already despairing, but still had a hint of panic on their faces, and suddenly showed a look of uncontrollable ecstasy.
The hope that appears after despair is like the dawn of a long night finally ushering in, making people almost cry with joy.
Before the five people could react, more figures exuding powerful aura, like divine soldiers descended from the sky, landed on the chaotic battlefield one after another.
In an instant, gusts of bloody wind began to blow across the battlefield.
I saw a large number of Goblin soldiers falling down in pieces like wheat being cut.
Between the light and shadow of the sword, there are also magical spells with dazzling flames and holy brilliance, making people dizzy.
This scene was like the arrival of a god, making Zhou Wu and the other five lords almost unable to believe their eyes.
The Goblin troops that were so powerful just now are actually powerless to fight back?
How terrifying are the strengths of these sudden strong men? !
Looking at these powerful men exuding monstrous power, Zhou Wu and the other five lords swallowed involuntarily.
These people had only seen the powerful strength of a second-level powerhouse when they went to Luolong City, but the powerhouses in front of them, whose body shapes were difficult to see clearly, were obviously far more powerful than the others. This category!
That action, which is never sloppy and hits the opponent's vital points directly, is like a death under the blood moon!
While feeling a huge uproar in his heart, Zhou Wu told the other lords with his eyes to gather the remaining subordinates back together, and motioned for everyone to retreat to a corner.
Several other lords also understood and quickly started to act cautiously.
The five people who gradually recovered from the panic understood clearly in their hearts.
These sudden strong men had a clear division of labor and were obviously fighting in an organized manner.
It can be seen that there must be a master hidden behind them.
And a person with such powerful energy must be a noble and wealthy person in this world!
You must know that the relationship between the alien lords and these indigenous forces is inherently hostile.
In the chat channel, people often mentioned that they had witnessed the alien lords being wiped out by some indigenous forces.
Then, God knows, will the big figures behind these powerful men also destroy them all in a while?
Thinking of this, the five lords once again felt shivers down their spines.
The battle has come to an end.
Almost in the blink of an eye, the two squadrons of Goblin soldiers that attacked suddenly were completely wiped out by eight mysterious strong men who made a strong appearance.
Immediately afterwards, Zhou Wu noticed.
After the battle, the eight spotless strong men all returned to the open area not far away without even looking at them.
There, two new strange figures, one behind the other, appeared on a piece of bluestone at some unknown time.
Under the illumination of the moonlight, the appearance of the two figures gradually became clear.
It was none other than Lei Xiao and Ariel who had gone through the magic disguise.
The eight powerful men who just appeared are naturally Huzhang, Ye Cang, Chao Yan, A Ling, A Bing, Bai Wei, as well as Holy Light General Ju Bai and Giant Ax General Bert.
Of course, the Nanxing and Nanyue sisters who had been guarding Lei Xiao did not show up.
After the mission was completed, all the main forces and subordinates bowed their heads to Lei Xiao and returned to life, while the two kingdom generals stood back behind Ariel without saying a word.
"It seems that that young man should be the leader of these people."
Squinting his eyes and looking at Lei Xiao who was standing calmly not far away, Zhou Wu swallowed involuntarily and thought to himself: "Presumably this person must be the son of a big noble family in this world, right? He is powerful. It’s simply terrible.”
However, the next second, a strange sense of familiarity appeared in the minds of Zhou Wu and other five lords at the same time.
They were surprised to find that the young man with a calm expression was actually an alien lord like the five of them!
"How is this possible?!"
Realizing this, the long-haired young male lord looked in disbelief and said with shock: "He... he is also a lord?"
"So strong..."
The young male lord wearing glasses suddenly showed a look of uncontrollable admiration and murmured to himself.
"I wonder if I can add a friend later?"
The two young female lords, while being extremely surprised, even looked at Lei Xiao with undisguised admiration.
"It turns out he is a lord, this is the real boss..."
Zhou Wu's throat rolled, and huge waves were already rising in his heart.
The strength of these strong men was much higher than the second-level strong men he had seen before.
Quite a few of them exude a terrifying aura like monsters.
And these monster-like strong men are actually subordinates of that big boss...
It can be seen from this that the fatal crisis for them, in the eyes of this boss, is like a snap of a finger and is not worth mentioning at all!
At this moment, the five people were shocked in their hearts, and at the same time, they couldn't help but look extremely lucky on their faces.
It was such a powerful boss who actually saved their lives when life and death were at stake! What a blessing this is?
Thinking of this, Zhou Wu did not hesitate and immediately took the other four lords with him and trotted all the way to Lei Xiao with gratitude on his face. (End of chapter)
