Chapter 338 Cleaning the battlefield
When the knights merged into Aulima's team, the major lords of the lava land took off their already prepared flying troops.
Some brought thousands of violent winged demons, some brought thousands of fire elves, and there were even demons who used flying magic to take off with a large army of nearly 10,000 people.
However, when they made all preparations and gathered from various cities, they found that the battle was over.
Olima's troops have been defeated, and she herself has lost her trace. The Seraph, who has been responsible for surveillance in the sky, has led the team away, and the remaining demon lords don't know whether they should continue.
Although they used various methods to fly, even if they used attack acceleration spells, it was impossible to catch up with those extremely fast knights.
Especially the lord who used flying magic, if they could not land before the spell expired, they would fall to death directly.
But once they land, without the advantage of not having to consider the terrain in the sky, it becomes even more impossible to catch up with Xu Lai.
"At least go and catch up. We can't let him collect the loot so calmly." A lord asked.
The leading flying thaumaturgy user snorted coldly:
"Now that they have their hands free, are you sure that if we go over now, we won't let them stab us through like they did to Aulima?"
In order not to scare Xu Lai away directly, Aulima led When the troops set out, they calculated it together.
Olimar, who has no physical ability, may not be able to win easily even though the number of troops is several times that of Xu Lai.
And if we can win reliably, unless the opponent is an idiot, it will be impossible for him to fight Aulima.
For this reason, these demon lords unanimously decided to divide their troops into three waves.
Let's start with Xu Lai's target Aulima. With Aulima's own value, he should be able to seduce Xu Lai.
In their understanding, Aulima had tens of thousands of sheep under his command, and Xu Lai's 2,000 cavalry would take a long time to kill them.
They are taking this opportunity to use the maneuverability of the flying soldiers to block Xu Lai's retreat.
Finally, let the ground troops in the city attack quickly, and the three groups of troops were divided into three waves to join the battle.
In this case, as long as Xu Lai is a little bit greedy, he will fall into their trap.
However, what they didn't expect the most was that in just a moment, Olimar's troops were defeated.
"Even if there are tens of thousands of pigs, it will take a long time to kill them." A demon lord said angrily.
The leader ignored it and turned around and returned to his city.
The demon lord was right. Although Aulima was dead and the enemy's morale was greatly reduced, the defeat did not happen in an instant.
Furthermore, in addition to the morale of Aulima and the circle around him being reduced to zero, the Magog troops on the edge and the Fire Demon troops behind them actually still have some morale left.
Therefore, Xu Lai only left Elvi to continue monitoring in the sky, calling all the angels down to speed up the killing of the enemy.
As the HP of the Holy Light Knight continues to decrease, his Holy Light Knight will be in danger if the enemy is not completely defeated.
There are tens of thousands of pigs, even if each of their knights can kill one with a sword, plus the time to catch up, it will still take a while.
If the demons' flying troops attack at this time, they should still be able to make it in time.
Of course, at this time, Aulima's troops were no longer a threat. It was just that Xu Lai was reluctant to part with these experiences and did not want to leave.
If there were more enemies, he could just turn around and leave.
If the number was relatively small, he would pack up his troops and continue waiting where he was.
It is impossible for the flying soldiers to kill the enemy in the void of the sky. If they want to attack Xu Lai, of course they will be counterattacked by Xu Lai's troops.
Thousands or even tens of thousands of flying soldiers, Xu Lai really doesn't care much about them.
It is precisely because they have seen through this that several demon lords are unwilling to take the lead.
All of Aulima's troops were wiped out in an instant.
Their troops are inferior to each other in terms of quantity and quality. If they rush over at this time, they are not looking for death.
When the enemy did not come, Xu Lai collected the loot calmly and found the burnt corpses of his troops first.
In addition to the Holy Light Knight, many knights, including Xu Lai, suffered many fireballs.
However, the fireballs of Magog and the Fire Demon also have explosive damage. Although the splash damage is not high, it extremely restrains his ultimate defense, forcing him to retain 1 point of health.
Before the battle was settled, Xu Lai started counting the casualties himself.
Injured people don’t need to be counted, as long as they don’t die on the spot, after Xu Lai removes the forbidden magic ball, the paladin can heal him on the spot.
The number of dead troops was not too many. Xu Lai killed twelve knights, five paladins, and several knight followers who rushed into the Magog group.
The Sixth Knights suffered slightly more casualties, with 7 or 8 paladins dead, more than 20 knights, and nearly a hundred knight retinues and trainee knights.
In this battle, Xu Lai fought very quickly, not only beyond the imagination of the demons, but also beyond Xu Lai's own imagination. The 24 Holy Light Knights played an extremely important role.
However, both sides still had over a hundred casualties combined, and their levels were both very high.
If we delay any longer, even if we can win, the casualties will be unacceptable to Xu Lai.
The Forbidden Magic Ball is easy to use, but it is a sharp double-edged sword.
Although the enemy cannot use spells to target them, it is also a serious blow to themselves.
Without the ability to use invincibility and healing, those Paladins could have avoided death.
But if the forbidden magic ball is not used, there will be more uncontrollable factors and unexpected situations on the battlefield, and Xu Lai will not be able to solve the opponent so quickly.
Strategic spells require timing. The cooldown time of ordinary spells is not that long, and it will not take up the casting opportunities of strategic spells.
Olimar also has several top-quality pieces of equipment on him, all of which have powerful magic effects. Using any one of them will cause a lot of trouble.
For example, the phantom scepter in his hand can be used on a designated target. After use, 3-7 illusions of the designated target will be generated.
Although there are not many illusions, these illusions are different from the mirror images summoned by the Mirror Image Technique. They are not fakes that can be broken at a touch and only have offensive capabilities.
The illusion has exactly the same attack, defense and health as the main body, but it will take an additional 200% damage.
That is to say, the main body only loses 1 health point, and the illusion loses 3 health points. You can distinguish them carefully, but it is more difficult on the battlefield.
The Illusion Scepter is only a prop for Olima. It can be used a total of 3 times without consuming spell casting opportunities and mana.
His real staff is the evil sickle commonly known as the "sheep's knife".
This thing will greatly increase the user's intelligence and spirit. The key is that it comes with the sheep-changing skill, which can turn a strong opponent into a weak little sheep, which can be limited for 3.5 seconds.
The Holy Light Knight who activates the sacrifice is afraid of this kind of restricted skill. Aulima also has equipment that increases the spell duration. Even if the sacrifice can halve the control time, it will still take at least 2 seconds.
Moreover, Aulima also has flying boots with built-in flying skills, control gloves that increase the duration of spells, an energy-absorbing cloak that can resist damage, and so on.
In addition, flame trolls, fire demons, fire elves, etc. all master fire spells.
Especially the flame trolls. The ones brought out by Aulima are all flame trolls born and raised in hell. He does not have the authority to recruit them.
These flame trolls randomly throw a few large fire spells at them. Except for a few people who are invincible, most low-level knights will be burned to death.
There are also fire elves. Their own fire shields are already very troublesome, and they are also one of the most important culprits of such serious casualties this time.
Give them a chance to cast more spells, Xu Lai really can't bear it.
The more he cleans up the battlefield, the more Xu Lai can appreciate the restraint of the magic-forbidden ball on the legal forces, and the proactive ability of one's own side after possessing the magic-forbidden ball.
Just the fire-bending magic skills and blessings released in advance helped him avoid the death of at least a hundred soldiers during this trip.
The demons had no intention of chasing them out, so Xu Lai counted the equipment generously.
Olimar has spent a lot of money this time, recruiting only one-half of the soldiers, and they are mainly horned demon governors, horned devils and the like.
Most of them, such as fire trolls, fire elves, and fire elves, are natives of hell.
The high proportion of aborigines shows that the strength of the demons has reached its limit.
Hell has to use soldiers in many places, although it has won many battles and robbed many cities with empires and towers.
But because they occupied these cities, they had to send troops and generals to guard them, which greatly reduced their military reserves.
As more and more places are occupied, the available troops of the demons will only become less and less.
The empire and the tower have the opportunity to slowly concentrate their forces. If they can use their superior strength to fight a decisive battle with the demons, there is still hope of turning defeat into victory.
On the contrary, for the barrier camp and the Eastern Empire, which are currently in relatively good situations, it is hard to say what will happen in the future, because it doesn't matter even if the undead suffer some defeats in the early stage.
What the undead fear most is that the enemy will not fight them. As long as they fight them, they will fight more and more.
In addition, the temple has supported a large number of priests to the two northwest empires. Without the purification ability of priests, even if the undead are temporarily killed, they can be resurrected after a while.
What's more, there are so many necromancers in the cemetery camp. If you can't wait, you can just find a battlefield and recruit a large number of skeleton soldiers.
But these are not what Xu Lai needs to worry about now. He only needs to clean up the battlefield and wait patiently for the battle to settle.
Although Aulima's equipment is good, its level is not high. The experience he gives as a hero is pretty good, but it is not enough for Xu Lai to upgrade.
Most of Xu Lai's level 26 experience has been exhausted, but when everyone gave up their experience together, two of Xu Lai's eight little angels got the chance to advance.
