Chapter 794 25. Storm
They were not very lucky, what appeared was the most troublesome wave of rats...
“Mr. Charlin, Ymir, please stop them. "Annan looked at the mage group.
"Please leave it to us." The Archmage of the Windmill Principality, Charin, said reservedly, raising his staff, "The mage group is ready, wall of fire!"
The strong magic element is in the camp After gathering together, as the spell was cast, an arc-shaped wall of fire several meters high appeared outside the first ravine of the camp, instantly illuminating the dark forest and the tide of rats in the distance like a black carpet.
They pushed against each other and hit the wall of fire, and the increasingly dense squeaks turned into chaotic screams. Burning flames rushed out, or they bumped into other rats in a daze, igniting their cilia and spreading rapidly.
The waves of screams rolling in the firelight made people's scalp numb. Just as magic muskets and artillery restrain ordinary ratmen, rat tides restrain magic muskets, artillery and everyone except spellcasters.
These scurrying rats had better not set the forest on fire...
Suddenly, a moist chill hit my face, and lead-colored traces were faintly dripping outside the camp.
It started to rain.
Charin shouted: "We must deal with them before the storm comes!"
The wall of fire in the front pushed the rat tide to the side, and the mage group then cast another spell, forming a ring of fire hundreds of meters in diameter to protect them. Camp.
The mages took the time to replenish their magic power with magic potions.
A large number of rats died, thunder and lightning came closer and closer, rain gradually formed a rain curtain, and the wall of fire was suppressed to less than two meters. Their hair was quickly extinguished by the rain, but many were scorched and motionless before being extinguished.
The goblin golem and the warriors activated, standing in the front row, like whack-a-mole, knocking out the rats that slipped through the musket.
If only it were that simple, but the real trouble is yet to come...
These rat tides are just the vanguard of the vanguard. There is movement here, and the rat tide is coming soon.
The tide of rats lasted for several minutes, and finally it was no longer as endless as a carpet. The wall of fire gradually extinguished, and the mage team added a new wall of fire, and then the light of illumination lit up around the camp.
There are shadows deep in the forest, mixed with piercing screams... The Rat Man is coming!
“Phase 1!”
Fermi shouted an order.
The Hellfire Legion stayed in the camp, and the goblin golems, heavily armored orcs, warriors and rangers took the initiative to go to the first ravine to consume the ratmen.
The vampires turned into a swarm of bats and cruised over the forest on a rainy night.
The Skaven are so dirty that even vampires won't drink blood unless they are all Wood. So they did what the white dragons did before: find the rat men, pick them up and fly them into the air, and then drop them down where the rat swarm is densely populated.
The White Dragon has to wait a little longer... When the rat men burst out of the forest in the form of a tide of rats and the soldiers retreated to the camp, that was when they appeared.
The forest was dim in the light, and as soon as the rat people rushed out, they were attacked head-on by the warriors.
The goblin golems are transformed into complete killing machines, blocking the front. The power contained in their huge size makes a ratman fall apart with every swing, and the body that is stronger than the earth element makes it fundamentally Fearless of the sharp teeth of the Skaven.
The heavily armored orcs followed closely behind, splitting the rat man's head and limbs with a battle ax, and roared with his head raised.
The soldiers harvested the rat men together, and the rain washed away the blood stains on their armor. They took turns pushing forward and pushing forward.
The rangers turned into shadows and swept up the treetops, shooting deadly arrows silently, reducing the density of the rat tide and creating a buffer.
The torrential rain washed away the fallen leaves. At this moment, the warrior near the goblin statue suddenly felt his skin numb.
In an instant, pale lightning struck down, and amid the deafening thunder, a goblin body The demon statue was filled with lightning and remained motionless.
“Let them come back!”
Annan, who suddenly remembered that metal conducts electricity, shouted to Charin.
Chalin waved his staff and released a red halo that illuminated the rainy night. The warriors and rangers who had advanced to the forest began to retreat, using the ravines and rat tides outside the camp to distance themselves. The vampires cooperated to carry the malfunctioning goblin golem back to the camp.
The mage group jointly released an ice trap that only had two rings, but was extremely suitable for the scene in front of them.
Wherever we passed, the wet ground quickly condensed into ice, and the slope made it difficult for the Rat Man to stand firmly.
The disadvantage on the stormy night turned into an advantage. Fermi picked up the orichalcum blunderbuss, and the sound of the gun was accompanied by a roar: "Fire!"
The musketeers watched the scene for dozens of minutes. They finally took action.
The fire that suddenly lit up was like an iron felt beaten by the gods, and the rat man who was still rolling on the ice trap instantly became stiff.
The first row of musketeers retreated to reload, while the second row stepped forward and raised their muskets.
Bang, bang, bang—
The acrid smoke came out of the camp and was torn to pieces by the rain curtain outside.
Water-men fell down like wheat, unable to get up again.
And as more and more ratmen formed a fan shape from the front, and then completely surrounded the camp, the unified gunfire began to become chaotic.
The only thing that remains unchanged is that the Rat Man has never taken a single step off the slope.
The rat people are not densely packed, and Annan hopes they can be more dispersed, but trees are also food for the rat people - the rat people are the only race that are not only eaten by demons, but also eat demons.
As the sounds of crunching and collapse in the forest continued, the density of the rat tide increased by several orders of magnitude, but there were only slave rats.
White Dragon began to move out. They grabbed the bolas and plowed the ground repeatedly around the perimeter of the camp, plowing out cavities among the rats.
The vampire is like an invisible big hand, grabbing several ratmen at a time and taking them to high altitudes before releasing them. Even because bats are the embodiment of their power, they have no fear of being hit by stray bullets.
The war between the Vampires and the Stun Rats in the Serens Mountains was so stalemate.
Dawn in a storm is no different from late night. The movement of the distant black watch is obscured by the rain curtain, as if they are the only ones standing alone in the camp.
But the rat tide had no chance of approaching the camp.
If only it were just these slave rats...
Annan's hope was just a beautiful vision. When the sky started to get dark, the real big guy finally emerged from the rat tide.
Those rats that are almost the same as goblin golems can be seen from a long distance away. They were mixed in with the rat tide, and their thick and thick cilia and skin allowed the magic gun to penetrate only a shallow layer.
"Magic artillery ready!"
Amidst Fermi's roar, several groups of soldiers dispersed, uncovered the raincloth covering the magic artillery, lifted the heavy shells and pushed them into the barrel, aiming at the rats. A few wild rats in the tide.
Hiss……
The ignited fuse burned to the end.
Bang——
The sound of successive cannons caused the camp to tremble. Several rats in the rat tide, which were targeted by dozens of magic artillery, instantly exploded into a ball of minced meat, along with the surrounding surroundings. Clear out a large area.
With the activation of the magic artillery, the intensity of the war suddenly increased.
