Chapter 430 A wave of unrest
"Tiya, don't be distracted, pay attention to your surroundings."
Noticing Tia's disdain, Tina, who was holding a spear, frowned slightly at the starry eyes in the gap of her knight's helmet.
"I know, after all, that crispy young master still needs my protection."
Tia swung the short lance that was much taller than herself, shrugged and said: "It's just a magician who can't even protect himself, it's nothing special."
Listening to Tia's strange words, the other knights beside them couldn't help but smile helplessly while being alert to the rear and flanks.
Compared to those who are strong in the physical system, those who are strong in the magic system are rare in number.
A third-level magician can easily become a middle-to-high-level leadership force in any aristocratic force, and obtain money and status that are unmatched by ordinary people.
Not to mention the thunder magician who is a rare attribute in the team of potential magicians.
Based on this alone, this young noble with a calm face is enough to win the respect of these knights!
Of course, Tia, who has obvious sister-control attributes, is naturally not in this category.
At the same time, the battle at the front was still continuing.
In the dark ancient ruins that could not be seen in the distance, after a series of indiscriminate bombardments from long-range forces, more than half of the shirtless puppets that surged towards them were wiped out before they even came forward.
Between the sharp arrow blades and the gorgeous spells, you can see from time to time that the shirtless stone soldiers rushing at the front were either shot into hedgehogs by the elite archers, or were blown to pieces by magic, and finally they were all restored. For energy particles in the air.
Among the attacking team, City Lord Al, who is a fourth-level three-star wind magician, is naturally the most eye-catching and the one with the highest output.
With the waving of the staff, every time the sharp wind blades intersected, several shirtless puppets were cut off at the waist, causing the surrounding soldiers to let out bursts of cheers.
Facing the charge of hundreds of bloodthirsty stone soldiers, except for the heavy infantry at the front led by Gale, a fourth-level martial artist, who withstood the pressure.
The range attacks performed by the old magician Calvin and several other earth magicians also played a big role.
These earth magics such as ground spikes and ground guns that can change the terrain have really slowed down the opponent's attack speed a lot.
The water bombs and water arrows fired by the water magicians also made the soil muddy and difficult to walk on, further strengthening this effect.
As a result, many stone soldiers lost their center of gravity and fell to the ground, and like dominoes, the stone soldiers behind them also tripped and fell to the spot.
This will undoubtedly provide more attack opportunities for long-range forces.
"Magicians of various attributes cooperate with each other, or directly use magic to change the current terrain, which can indeed achieve twice the result with half the effort."
Seeing this scene, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.
If this can be applied on a large-scale battlefield, it will obviously give itself a great advantage.
Of course, the premise is that there must be strong enough magical power.
Just when Lei Xiao was releasing his lightning technique, he was thinking about this.
The remaining shirtless puppets, with their scarlet, godless eyes flickering, were already wielding long-handled stone axes, and like a turbulent torrent of steel, they rushed straight towards the front of the team, where the heavy infantry formation was waiting.
Accompanied by bursts of dull crashing sounds, the stone ax slashed at the giant shield, causing sparks to fly, and the two sides came into contact at hand-to-hand combat.
Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!
The stone soldiers, who weighed hundreds of kilograms, were full of momentum. While making strange screams, they either kept banging their bodies crazily or kept slashing violently with their weapons. The momentum was extremely astonishing.
Faced with such a violent impact, the defensive shield formation formed by more than fifty heavy infantrymen was like an indestructible fortress, barely able to be shaken at all.
Occasionally, one or two heavy infantrymen were knocked out together with their shields, and the reserve force behind them immediately took up their positions, making the battle formation still very strong.
"This group of Fanyin City's second-order heavy infantry can indeed be regarded as an elite force. Of course, these rather sophisticated second-order metal heavy shields also contribute a lot."
Lei Xiao, holding the staff in his hand, continued to cast spells on the target in the back row quite leisurely, while raising his eyebrows.
Although these golem puppets are not organized and only fight based on fighting instincts, their shortcomings are very obvious.
But correspondingly, being not afraid of pain, not tired, and always maintaining high morale is also an unparalleled and huge advantage for the opponent.
Of course, if the energy is exhausted or completely destroyed, the opponent will still revert to energy particles in the air,
In the extremely fierce battle at the front, Gale, a fourth-level powerhouse, played an extremely significant role.
I saw him standing alone on the other side of the shield array. As a martial artist by profession, he did not need to use weapons. Instead, his hands and feet were covered with a layer of energy gloves and gloves visible to the naked eye. Energy boots.
Every time he punched or raised his foot, the stone soldiers would be directly penetrated or their limbs would be severed, leaving only the heartbroken remains of their bodies to dissipate in the wind.
In this way, coupled with the ghost-like agility, the flank at the other end of the shield formation was almost as strong as the end completely blocked by the giant stone pillar.
Without the worries of the flanks, Orr and other magicians and archers were naturally not idle. The range attack magic just now has been converted into a short, flat and fast single target attack magic.
Accompanied by the sound of "swish, swish" piercing the air, wind blades, fire arrows and earthen guns intertwined, like scalpels, and began to clear away the lone stone soldiers on the periphery one by one.
In this way, under the leadership of two fourth-level powerhouses, City Lord Orr and Gale, and five third-level commanders, plus the assistance of Lei Xiao and the long-range knights around him.
Not long after, the two hundred or so second-level golem puppets were reduced by half again, leaving less than fifty. It was only a matter of time before they were all eliminated.
As for the exploration team, except for a few heavy infantrymen who were knocked away and were receiving treatment from the priests in the corner, there were almost no other losses.
Seeing that victory was in sight, a touch of excitement appeared on the faces of everyone present, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.
However, just when everyone thought everything had settled, a change occurred for the second time.
At the rear of the entire team, where Tina, Tia and the other five knights were defending, more than two hundred cyan summoning magic circles appeared out of thin air again, exactly the same as before.
In the blink of an eye, another two hundred brand-new shirtless stone soldiers were quickly formed in the magic circle, and appeared in front of everyone with murderous intent.
This sudden change caused everyone at the back of the team, including Lei Xiao and Orr, to show expressions of surprise.
At this stage, the first batch of enemies had not been completely eliminated, and they were holding back the heavily armored soldiers guarding the front. The previous formation was obviously unable to work again.
As for the five third-level knights such as Tina and Tia who were guarding the rear, although they were quite strong, it was undoubtedly impossible to withstand two hundred menacing second-level enemies.
Because all this happened in a flash of lightning, before anyone could react, the second group of more than two hundred stone soldiers wielding giant axes roared and charged.
Looking at the empty rear, everyone's hearts tightened, and the whole scene suddenly became extremely tense and dangerous.
"Your Excellency Gale, Your Excellency Chensha, the enemies in the rear will be left to you for the time being. Once the enemies in the front are completely eliminated, Master Calvin and I will bring people to reinforce us!"
At the critical moment, Al's hoarse voice immediately reached Lei Xiao's ears.
Before Lei Xiao could reply, Gale had already flashed in front of him and said softly and solemnly: "Your Excellency Chensha, you must protect yourself. I will be at the front to help you attract the enemy's attention."
After saying that, Gale turned into a meteor and rushed directly into the enemy formation at the rear.
I saw this powerful fourth-level man, like a blockbuster. With the impact of high-speed movement, he used his body as a weapon to form a giant energy wave, which directly hit the person in front of him. Twenty or so stone soldiers were all thrown away.
These stone soldiers who were caught off guard slammed into the giant stone pillars not far away, and then turned into nothingness.
"All knights switch to melee weapons, let's start."
Taking advantage of this gap, Lei Xiao, still holding the staff, immediately led the five Ryans to reunite with Tina, Tiya and others.
"Your Excellency, please stay back a little. The fight will start soon, but no one can protect you, a weak magician."
Seeing Lei Xiao coming, Tiya raised her eyebrows and snorted contemptuously.
"Tiya, you girl, please stop saying a few words."
Tina on the side quickly stepped forward, caressed her chest and added: "Please rest assured, Mr. Chensha, in the name of knights, we will swear to death to protect your safety!"
"Leave it to you."
Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows and immediately took a few steps back.
Ryan and others also stood in front of Lei Xiao with awe-inspiring expressions, forming a straight line of defense.
At this moment, all the knights clearly understood.
Behind them are long-range forces that are not good at close combat. Once a large number of shirtless stone soldiers break through the defense line and form a two-sided attack with the enemy in front, the situation will be very bad.
"Ye Cang, go and stay by Gale's side. There is no need to take action unless it is absolutely necessary."
Looking at the middle-aged martial artist who had attracted at least half of the golem puppets, Lei Xiao opened his mouth and gave instructions to the muscle priest.
Gale is not only the president of the Fanyin City Trade Fair, but also Kelly's father. In every aspect, he is crucial to the next actions, so naturally he cannot let anything go wrong.
As for Huzhang and Hongye, they were still guarding Lei Xiao's sides.
Lei Xiao clearly understood that although the current situation was a bit tricky, it was not dangerous. The two fifth-level powerhouses who were the trump cards were far from ready to be king.
Accompanied by the dull sound of weapons hitting rocks, ten third-level knights lined up in front of Lei Xiao were already fighting in a melee with a large number of shirtless stone soldiers.
In an instant, swords and swords flashed, energy was everywhere, and the scene was extremely intense.
Logically speaking, with Gale attracting nearly half of the enemies, in terms of combat power alone, ten third-level knights should be on par with a hundred second-level opponents.
However, as Lei Xiao analyzed before, these golem puppets that are not afraid of pain, not tired, and have thick skin and flesh are obviously much more difficult to deal with than ordinary second-level soldiers.
Although the knights were obviously superior in strength, they successively killed a large number of shirtless stone soldiers who rushed up to the ground, occupying the advantage on the field.
Including the two sisters Tina and Tia who were holding long spears, their spears were like dragons, and they used all their killing moves. With precise thrusts, no opponent could get close at all, which was dazzling.
However, as the fierce battle continued and faced with a steady stream of enemies, even with short arms and legs, they still charged forward, the situation began to quietly change.
On the extremely fierce battlefield, due to the exhaustion of her early combat skills, the energy in her body was consumed too quickly. Tiya, whose strength was only at the third level of three stars, first began to slow down.
While panting, large beads of sweat appeared on Tiya's smooth and white forehead. The all-metal spear held in her hand became heavier and heavier, and she gradually became unable to handle it.
Even the knight's helmet on her head was thrown to the ground not far away because it blocked her vision too much.
Although Tia has good talent and has reached the level of a third-level powerhouse at a young age, as the second lady of the Knights, she has very little combat experience, far less than her sister Tina. This is reasonable. among.
"Abominable stone man, disappear!"
Just when Tiya thrust fiercely and struggled again to turn the stone man in front of her into nothingness.
Another stone soldier came around from the side, already holding a big ax, and struck straight at the back of her unprepared head!
"Tiya, watch your back!"
Seeing this scene, Tina on the side suddenly exclaimed.
However, Tina was already surrounded by other stone soldiers.
Therefore, he had no time to clone himself and could only watch all this happen.
"Wha...what?!"
After hearing her sister's cry, Tia quickly reacted.
Just when she turned back in horror, the sharp ax blade of the stone soldier was only one step away from her head!
At this moment, apart from the panic and fear flashing in her starry eyes, Tiya obviously had no time to react.
"Fearful flash!"
At this critical moment, with a loud shout and the flash of the sharp sword blade, the stone soldier who attempted to commit murder had been cut into several pieces and disintegrated in mid-air and disappeared.
When Tia, who was still in shock, saw clearly the swordsman who saved her.
A look of disbelief suddenly appeared in a pair of starry eyes, and he blurted out: "How could it be you?" (End of Chapter)
