Chapter 538 The Battle of the Island (1)
During the time when Nohir and Orpheus were communicating, the tower itself was also working hard to resist the powerful enemies from the star realm.
As Nohir expected before, the Githyanki do have the ability to track and even locate the specific location of the astral prism. It is precisely because of this ability that these people who traveled across unknown distances came Only the Githyanki Red Dragon Knight could accurately find this place in such a short period of time, but Baldur's Gate had already been reminded by Nohir and mobilized a considerable amount of force to arrive nearby in the shortest possible time. of this area.
Bodran High Tower is an isolated prison island. This area was originally home to 300 elite Flame Fist veterans, and under the order of Duke Ravengard, he specially dispatched one more A 100-man crossbowman brigade stationed nearby, more than 30 paladins and priests of Tom, the God of Courage, who volunteered to support, and a team of 50 people, with an average level of three to four rings. A team of accompanying mage.
Such support is not unimpressive, but it is not the end of it. In addition to these basic teams and manpower support, the Grand Duke has also notified others of the upcoming Githyanki attack, including The Hammer of Lumen, the Paladin Ska, the beloved rangers Minsk and Boo, Baldur's Gate's top magic advisor Ms. Florrick, and the Fury of Hell Karak who came here early in the morning.
The minimum professional level of the above four people is over level 16. They are currently the strongest lineup that Baldur's Gate can produce. They are the masters among masters. They did not hesitate at all after receiving the notice and entered Nohir. Not long after, the Star Boundary Prism came here in batches, and at this moment, they happened to catch up with this grand event.
“Circle of Power!”
A powerful sacred energy suddenly erupted in the open space around the Bodran Sea Tower, and these twisted and emanating energies were at the same time Time quickly constructed a spherical force field with a radius of 30 feet, blocking the wanton breath of a young red dragon whistling by, and protecting the lives of a dozen Flame Fist crossbowmen around him.
The person who held up this protective circle was Ska. The moment he used this move to block the flames of the young red dragon, those around Ska came to their senses and saved their lives. The crossbowmen immediately turned around, raised their specially-made heavy crossbows towards the red dragon that had not yet flown far, and fired a dozen swift and sharp crossbow arrows, which were very accurate on the red dragon's thighs and tail. Five or six of them were hit.
But these things are mortal iron after all. Even if they carry heavy crossbows and matching special heavy arrows, it is almost impossible for such non-magical weapons to penetrate the scales of a dragon. This sparse array of In the end, the rain of arrows only made the dragon roar in dissatisfaction. Without even looking back, it spit out another breath of dragon breath towards the middle of the towering Bodran Sea Tower itself.
The powerful heat and the impressive impact of the dragon's breath caused the tower itself to shake again, but just when the dragon wanted to attach itself to the tower, it directly destroyed the six giant beds erected above the tower. When the crossbows and the soldiers attached to the outer wall stacks of the sea tower kept firing crossbow arrows from the shooting ports, a one-horned tiefling barbarian with blazing fire wrapped around his body and holding a giant hammer suddenly appeared Jump from the top of the tower!
Karak held the giant warhammer with both hands. With the powerful force provided by the hell heart in his body, he used the technique of brutal heavy blows and smashed the head of the young red dragon. A vicious hammer blow! The powerful force, the fierce attack, and the bad position it was in now caused this young red dragon, which seemed to have little combat experience, to lose its claws. It was smashed from the middle of the tower with a hammer and fell around the sea tower. On a hard rock floor!
But just when it was about to land on its back and crush the Githyanki knight riding on its back into a meat pie, it actually tried hard to tilt to the left in the air. , but the red dragon knight on its back seemed to have known what this giant dragon was thinking. While it was leaning to the left, the knight also released his saddle, pulled out the silver sword on his back, and Run towards the right side of the red dragon's body.
At the moment when the red dragon fell to the ground on the left side, the knight also found a suitable place to stand at the same time. He picked up his astral silver sword and headed towards the dragon's head which also fell to the ground. Karak, who was in the position, quickly dodged over and struck with his sword.
And Karak, who had already entered a violent state, did not give up at all. The two masters launched a life-and-death bloody battle directly on the red dragon's body. However, this battle did not last for a few seconds. The young man under their feet The red dragon shook his head and stood up again.
Obviously, the fall just now did not cause much damage to this rough-skinned giant beast. Even the reason why it shook its head was due to the hammer that Karak gave it before, and this As soon as Long stood up, Karak and the Githyanki knight lost their fighting location at the same time.
After landing, the knight made a few light jumps, followed the bone spurs on the red dragon's claw arms, jumped back onto the red dragon's saddle, and then suddenly tugged on the bone spurs on the red dragon's claw arms. The super long reins around him, and the red dragon itself came to his senses at this moment because of this pull. When he turned his head, he spit out a scorching dragon's breath with a wide range and extremely lethality directly at Karak below.
But as a tiefling, Karak still has a hell engine burning in her body. When running at full power, it will even cover her whole body with flames. Even the fire of hell cannot stop her powerful barbarian. The breath of a young dragon is really It's impossible for her to take it seriously.
Karak directly ignored the red dragon, whose brain seemed to have been knocked unconscious by the hammer just now, and then relied on the fact that he had not died after eight years of fighting in Avernus, and had dealt with countless kinds of things, large and small. Demonic creatures possessing all kinds of weird abilities, and with rich experience in defeating them one by one, I judged the best attack route, and then directly went against the flow of dragon breath fire, charging towards the red dragon at high speed, and then before the enemy was even there The moment he reacted, he quickly shot through the flames, raised the giant hammer, and used the greatest strength to directly break the middle right claw of the red dragon! At that moment, he couldn't help but let out a painful cry!
But the pain caused by Karak's hammer seemed to stimulate the giant dragon. At the moment when the giant dragon roared, Karak wanted to raise the giant hammer, continue his efforts, and directly destroy its right arm in the shortest time. claw, but the moment she just raised the giant hammer, the giant creature in front of her instantly retracted its right claw to the height, and then spent less than 0.5 seconds, facing Karak's current position. Press down hard!
