Chapter 237 Breakout
In the short exchange and observation, the master understood the huge problems currently facing the fortress, and then she asked Ravengard about the specific movements of the devils in the city now, and came up with the current situation outside the fortress. Those demons don't seem to have any intention to attack.
Perhaps it is because the devils know that they have already won, so at best they can only launch some tentative attacks, Ravengard said to Master Jaheira.
At the same time, the number of devils outside was also very rare, so the master judged that the devils neither wanted nor had the ability to suppress the situation with an entire army. After all, just this number of devils did not have enough size, even if the city gate was already closed. It was impossible for them to break into the fortress if it was destroyed.
So she was a little relieved about the current situation, and immediately used the druid's spellcasting ability to release a large number of group resurrection spells to stabilize the condition of the wounded, and then used low-level spell slots to cast divine The berry technique creates a large number of magical berries that can both satisfy people and heal injuries.
The master's actions brought them hope and stabilized their position. As long as they were given a little more time, and after the wounded recovered, or at least regained a certain combat effectiveness, the Duke could prepare a counterattack plan. As long as the raid moves quickly enough, this plan has a high chance of success, and this opportunity must be seized.
But what no one expected was that just a few hours ago, the demon army that had been standing still suddenly launched an attack on them, as if these demons knew how long the people in the city could last, and Or maybe he knew about the arrival of the master and the changes he had made.
Ravengard doesn’t know what the specific situation is, but no matter what the truth is, the sudden large-scale attack by the devils is real and not half false. It can be said to be a hammer that hits the heart directly. Regarding their weakness, it has to be said that the Devils picked a good time, at least for them.
Although the wounded in the army have been treated and have recovered to a certain extent, and most of them are out of the state of serious injuries and dying, they still need a period of rest to fully recover.
During this period, they had no fighting ability, and forcing them to the battlefield would only lead to death. Master Jaheira, who was supposed to be the most powerful combatant on their side, was already dead at this moment. Almost impossible to cast spells.
The master has used all the high-level spell slots, and not one day has passed yet. The master has not had time to restore the spell slots. Now, except for some tricks and sporadic first- and second-level spells, she faces these devils. The only thing that could be done was to use the druid's special skill of wild transformation. So two hours ago, the master followed Ravengard and participated in this war in wild form. But after that, more Something unexpected happened.
The commander of this demonic army actually fell in love with Jaheira’s wild form! At the same time, he changed the offensive form of the Devil Legion quite outrageously and willfully.
Under Lucille's order, he let most of the devils leave their original lineup and focused most of their energy on capturing Jaheira. Although the master did not understand the Infernal language, she still discovered this strange situation.
So she used herself as bait and led more than half of the devils present, including the devil's commander, away from the main battlefield, and then the situation became like this.
Now Master Jaheira no longer has any extra wild transformations. As a druid, she is not a member of the Moon Society who specializes in wild form attacks, but focuses more on the combination of melee combat and spell casting. She belongs to the Earth Society, so she can only transform twice a day before she rests and calms down the magic power in her body.
And among these two transformations, one of them was when she transformed into a crow and sneaked into the military camp fortress, and the other time was in her current black panther form.
Although the druid can remain in animal form as long as he does not suffer serious trauma in animal form, the master currently no longer has the ability to continue to transform, at least before resting, she will definitely not be able to transform. For other animals, this means she cannot transform into a crow and fly away. The Duke knows the current situation of the master, and he also understands that if something happens to the master here, if the master is really caught by these devils, then this city can be said to be really finished.
He could never let this happen, so even though the situation was extremely critical, he still resolutely brought a team of knights to support the master, and then this is the situation now.
The Hell Knights rushed into the encirclement with the deliberate indulgence of the devils, and then more than 20 knights formed an airtight iron barrel, protecting Duke Ravengard and Master Jaheira on shields In an iron hedgehog built with spears.
"You shouldn't have come. No matter what the purpose of those demons is, they obviously just want to capture me, not kill me. In this case, even if I am captured by mistake, there will be a big chance when I recover my ability to cast spells." "
Jahira in panther form said breathlessly. As a great druid, Jaheira can speak even in animal form, and Ravengard is listening. After saying this, he shook his head and responded.
"Don't be stupid, master, we can't bet our hope of survival on the devil's kindness, then this thing will not exist in the devil."
"We only have Only by working hard can I have a slight chance of surviving. Even if I go back in time and make another decision, I will still do it."
While speaking, Ravengard tightened the shield on his arm. , and then he observed the situation outside through the gap between the shields. The devils had formed a battle formation and silently pressed over. These silent legions brought a great sense of oppression at this time.
The Duke did not look again, but turned to Master Jaheira and said.
“We must rush out.”
“How? I can see that the continuous fighting has exhausted your physical strength, and you no longer have the ability to launch another round. Charge, as I said before, Duke, you should not have come at all."
"Stop saying these depressing words, Master, I will not do anything without the slightest hope, my space. There are some spell scrolls left in the bag, including a spell scroll of the sixth-level spell Sun Flame Ray."
"I will use this scroll to open a passage. This spell is very powerful, and. It's a straight-line attack that will definitely open up a straight path for us, but I can't guarantee how long this path will last. We must take advantage of this time to rush out. Master, I need you to be the forward."
