The uninterrupted flares gave the undead no chance at all.
During the day, the skeletons who were not afraid of death could not even reach the walls of Shenmu City. At night, the undead directly dispatched one of their ace vampire troops.
Although the strength of this vampire army is not top-notch, it is not bad either.
At the very least, they are all with titles, and there are also many vampire counts.
After finding that they couldn't make a sneak attack, the undead honestly withdrew all the vampires. After all, the flying troops of humans and elves hadn't moved yet.
There was another long pause, and the entire first half of the night passed, but the undead did not continue to act.
Rena had no choice. The biggest advantage of the undead was that they didn't need to rest, but humans and elves couldn't.
If you never arrange for soldiers to take turns and rest, you will really fall into the trap of the undead.
Of course, if there is a rotation and rest, it is inevitable that half of the players will not be able to enter the defensive position.
In the second half of the night, the undead launched another attack on Shenmu City.
This time the attack was still launched from the air, but instead of using vampires, it used a large number of ghosts and ghosts.
The biggest feature of ghost-type undead is that they have extremely strong immunity to physical damage.
Even a level 3 ghost has a 50% chance of being completely immune to physical damage.
There are also gains and losses. The ghosts need to bear additional spell damage, especially fire spells, which will cause an additional 50% damage to the ghosts.
Moreover, level 3 ghosts have too low health and cannot withstand long-range attacks from high-level shooters.
The undead simply gave up on level 3 ghosts and dispatched level 4 ghosts and level 5 ghosts.
These two things, in addition to still having strong physical immunity, also have strong life recovery capabilities, as well as close group attack capabilities.
Although the attributes of ghosts are not as good as those of vampires, due to their strong physical immunity, the threat is much greater than that of vampires.
Here in Shenmu City, the main magic output is only priests and druids.
The total number of these people is only more than a thousand. If they take turns to take breaks, there are only more than 500 people on duty.
The magic output of more than 500 people caused high damage, but it was not enough to block the entire sky.
As for the magic shooters, they are not professional mages and have limited mana.
The battle during the day had consumed too much mana, so Rena basically arranged for her to rest.
Of course, the elves are not helpless, they just need to dispatch some high-level troops.
Before the undead high-level soldiers appeared, our side took the lead in using high-level soldiers and was already at a disadvantage.
The 20 fairy dragons left by the elves showed their amazing magic skills.
It is no exaggeration at all. For high-level spells that are relatively expensive for high-level mages, these purple dragons are as easy to use as drinking water.
For example, they can use level 4 or above spells such as chain lightning, hell flame, and ice storm continuously.
The only embarrassing thing is that they may use several high-level spells in succession.
But it is also possible to release several fireballs, lightning bolts and the like in succession.
It's not that this kind of spell has no effect, but that a fireball kills a ghost. For an unknown number of undead, it is just a sprinkle of water.
Even if one throw can electrocute hundreds of ghosts, the ghost's chain lightning is not a big threat to the undead.
However, Purple Dragon's mana value is terrifyingly high, and its key recovery speed is astonishing, especially under the blessing of the World Tree.
Especially this naturally growing fairy dragon, one head can be used as at least dozens of high-level mages.
The residence that the elves arranged for Xu Lai was a tree house that was not luxurious but was extremely exquisitely decorated.
But to be honest, Xu Lai was not in the mood to have a good rest at all.
The attack of the undead also affected Xu Lai's mind. Xu Lai had been paying close attention to the army of ghosts in the second half of the night.
He didn't sleep peacefully again until he was able to confirm that Reina and the elf were not in any danger.
However, not long after Xu Lai fell asleep, Trisili's men discovered the necromancer who had been hiding in the dark sky and casting spells.
But this necromancer's perception ability is extremely strong. As soon as the elves discovered this necromancer, they were immediately sensed by him.
The Necromancer immediately took action on several rangers, even though these rangers were all experienced rangers who had experienced life and death.
But the moment he was locked by this undead wizard, he still couldn't escape.
Fortunately, these rangers are not vegetarians either.
Although not all of them escaped in the end, under the desperate cover of their teammates, two of the five rangers in this team still escaped.
These two rangers sent the most critical information to Xu Lai and the elves.
Just as Xu Lai expected, this undead wizard who could throw bone spears across thousands of meters was indeed an undead king.
But this undead king under the banner of Sandro, the undead king, is not Sandro.
He is another undead king, Modo, known as the immortal lich.
As the king of the undead, Modo is the last among the four kings.
Rather than saying that he is one of the four kings of the undead, it is better to say that he is Sandro's royal thug.
Because Modo’s specialty is corpse witch.
In the hands of Modo, the Corpse Witch and the Corpse Witch King can exert even greater power.
It just so happens that Sandru, who possesses the artifact, can create corpse witches in batches.
However, although Modo is at the bottom among the four kings, he does not seem to have any famous artifacts.
But he himself is actually a lich with high attainments in strength.
The key is that this guy is extremely cautious. Once he discovers any danger, he will immediately cower
After the rangers brought back the information, the undead who were still trying decisively gave up probing and attacking, and all disappeared into the dark sky.
"King Sandro of the Undead, so far, no one has ever seen him take action.
However, it is said that the undead lich Modo's necromancy skills are still above Sandro's.
Moreover, Modo is one of the four kings after all, so there is no need to use the banner of Sandru. ”
Trishley said in confusion.
Xu Lai rubbed his chin and said: "Obviously, these undead must be up to some conspiracy.
Since they used Sandro's banner to confuse us, Sandro himself must have gone to do other things.
Whatever Sandro wants to do, we'd better not let him get it. ”
"But we don't even know where Sandro is, so how can we stop him?" Giselle asked in confusion.
"Is there any way to dispel the dark sky outside the city?"
Xu Lai did not answer Giselle's question, but asked another unrelated question.
Trishley frowned and said: "The dark sky mainly relies on the smoke emitted to cover the sky. There are two ways to dispel the dark sky. One is to use wind spells to blow away the smoke.
In Shenmu City, there are three druids who are good at air spells and can release the wind spell to blow away the smoke.
However, the dark sky is constantly erupting, and even with the wind technique, it cannot last for too long.
Another way is to find the launch device of the Dark Sky and then destroy it.
Without the smoke ejection device, the dark sky will naturally no longer exist.
During the day yesterday, my Ranger team had found several Dark Canopy launchers.
It's just that this device is located in the camp of the undead, and is guarded by many powerful undead.
Moreover, these devices are large buildings, which are difficult to destroy in a short time without using siege weapons. ”
Obviously, the rangers had already tried before Xu Lai cared about this issue, and the attempts had failed.
The dark sky of the undead is basically unsolvable for elves.
It is really difficult for long-range troops such as Rangers to cause any damage to buildings, especially when their numbers are unlikely to be too large.
If they want to destroy the dark sky, the elves can only give up the advantage of city defense and choose to fight the undead in the wild.
This is exactly what the undead want. After all, the long-range abilities of the elves are well known, while the long-range abilities of the undead are weak.
The undead's long-range troops, the skeleton archers, are half disabled, and may not even be as good as the big goblin.
The only one that can make it onto the stage is the corpse witch, but the basic level of this thing is too high, and it is difficult to increase the number.
Even though Sandro relied on the power of the artifact to convert a large number of corpse witches, this thing was a long-range magic weapon after all.
The long-range shooting range of the legal system is far inferior to that of the physical system, not to mention that the elves have the advantage of city walls.
But if a dark sky can be used to attract the elves from the city, the undead can take advantage of their huge numerical advantage.
The elves have suffered so many losses in the field, and their morale has long been destroyed. Now they have a completely resigned attitude towards the dark sky.
Xu Lai slapped the table and said, "It's just right that the undead are guarding me. I'm worried that I can't find them.
Lena, you don't need to go, you should stay and defend the city, I'll just take people there. ”
The undead's three attempts were all repelled by long-range power.
Reina's defensive skills and Xu Lai's god-level offensive skills have not yet had time to show off.
Of course, Xu Lai wanted to lead the team out in person, not to show off his god-level offensive skills, but to prevent the undead from attacking in the east.
After all, Sandro, the undead wizard, has not shown up yet.
The rangers who went deep into the dark sky to investigate also reported that they found no trace of the Bone Dragon Legion.
This thing is a high-level flying unit, and it can attack Shenmu City very quickly.
With Lena here, even if Sandro dares to make a sneak attack, he may not be able to gain any advantage.
"How many people do you plan to take out? To be honest, the wilderness is more advantageous for the undead. I think the dark sky is not worth your risk."
Xu Lai wanted to go out of the city to fight, but the first person who disagreed was the elf who invited Xu Lai to come over.
Both Trisili and Elf Elder Yin Mu expressed their objections.
If something unexpected happens to Xu Lai, the barrier will most likely not be able to bear it in its current state.
Xu Lai waved his hand and said: "I'm not running towards the dark sky.
And I won’t bring too many people with me. Go quickly and come back quickly. No one can stop me, not even the Lord of Hell Kerrigan! ”
Xu Lai looked around. All the elves avoided his gaze, and no one dared to look at him.
As the king of the human kingdom, he naturally has no affiliation with these elves.
The performance of the elves comes entirely from their own guilty conscience.
Being constantly defeated by the undead has already made these elves desperate and fragile.
If it weren't for the heavy use of the World Tree, these elves might not be able to support it long ago.
On the other hand, Xu Lai and the others have not lost a single battle so far, and the undead are just chickens and dogs.
No one on the human side will stop what Xu Lai has decided, and no one on the elves can stop it.
He didn't bring too many people with him. He had more than a hundred personal knights, plus the Angel Legion and Elvy, and the total was less than a thousand people.
Xu Lai didn't even carry the royal griffons.
There are things like vampires. As long as the defense is slightly lower and can be broken, the life will be sucked away by them and become a blood bag.
Besides, although the Royal Griffin is not slow and can fly, it is still a burden to Xu Lai and the knights.
Instead, he only brought knights and angels with him, and they really just came and left when they wanted.
However, in addition to the knights and angels, Xu Lai also brought a few more people, it was Trisly and her team.
No way, although the rangers drew detailed maps, they were actually based on their memories of this forest.
According to those rangers, as long as you enter the scope of the dark sky, your vision will become pitch black.
Even a person with dark vision cannot see clearly, let alone see very far.
Without dark vision, it would be dark inside and nothing would be visible.
This is also the main reason why Xu Lai is unwilling to bring too many people.
With too many people, even if Xu Lai has dark vision, he can't cover too many places.
If someone falls behind for no reason at that time, we don’t know how much time it will take to go back.
It is also because of these shady relationships that humans who are completely unfamiliar with the forest have no idea whether they are lost even if they have a map.
Under the leadership of Trisly and the rangers, Xu Lai and his knights drove into the pure black sky.
The shady scene was indeed as described by the rangers. Xu Lai could see it clearly even in a low-light environment like a dungeon.
In the dark sky, even he had a hard time seeing things 50 meters away.
This is still very rare for Xu Lai, whose physique has been greatly strengthened.
Xu Lai was relatively good at this. Elvy and the others, who only brought night vision goggles, could only see clearly about ten meters around them at most.
On the contrary, the undead have no vision at all. They don't see with their eyes at all, so they are not affected at all.
Fortunately, Xu Lai brought the rangers, and these rangers were all able to see without using their eyes.
Using only their ears, their familiarity with the forest, and the cover of plants in the forest, they were able to take Xu Lai wherever he wanted to go without any mistakes.
It's a pity that although the rangers are powerful, the undead don't seem to want to see Xu Lai running rampant in their territory. (End of chapter)
