The angel soaring into the sky has amazing fighting power.
In terms of basic attributes, the black dragon and the archangel are at the same level. The archangel's attack power and agility exceed that of the black dragon.
The black dragon has advantages in resistance to magic, defense and health.
But because the body is too bulky and the speed is outpaced by the archangel, it is impossible to defeat the archangel in a duel.
If neither party is affected by external factors, then even if the archangel can defeat the black dragon, he will definitely be injured.
The black dragon's Dragon Flame is a range-type attack, and its movement speed is not slow. Even the Archangel has a hard time avoiding it.
Coupled with the strong dragon scales on its body and the extra life of a giant creature, the black dragon has more room for error.
So, although the archangel can win against the same number of black dragons, he will definitely suffer casualties.
But if external factors intervene, the gap between the two sides will quickly widen.
Heroes are the biggest external factor, followed by generals.
Elvi was promoted from captain to general, so unlike Dill, her loyalty still carries the mark of die-hard loyalty.
The talent Archangel can increase the health of all angel troops by 25% and increase the effect of sacred spells by 25%.
The latter has almost no effect when the spell cannot be released, while the former almost increases the size of the angel by 25%.
Coupled with Xu Lai's sacred blood bottle, it is equivalent to each archangel having 150% health, which is far more than the black dragon's bonus from the dragon's blood bottle and Moriel's talent.
[Dragon Blood Bottle]: An artifact that increases the basic attack power of the dragon troops led by oneself by 5 points, the basic defense power by 5 points, and the basic health value by 30 points.
Note: After collecting the blood of the four dragon kings of red, green, black and gold, you can mix the blood of the dragon with the effect of dragon transformation.
Collecting the blood of the Dark Dragon King, the Fairy Dragon King, the Poison Dragon King, the Crystal Dragon King and the Holy Dragon, the user can obtain the Dragon Heart (with extra health, long-lasting vitality and powerful self-healing ability) ).
Features: Dragon, all dragon troops led by dragons have 5% extra attack, 5% extra defense, and 5% extra life.
Moriel's specialty is controlling dragons, and the dragons she controls can span any camp.
From the red dragon, black dragon, and poisonous dragon in the underground, to the green dragon, golden dragon, fairy dragon in the barrier, and even the neutral dark dragon, crystal dragon, and even the holy dragon, etc.
Even the sea dragons in the sea can be given bonuses as long as she can recruit them.
Except for the bone dragons and ghost dragons in the undead department of the cemetery, they cannot be bonused because they are considered undead and not dragons.
Such a wide range of bonuses also makes her special abilities not outstanding.
But fortunately, the dragon's basic attributes are good enough. Even an ordinary level 7 dragon has a basic attack and defense of more than 100 points, so it can get at least 5 points of bonus.
This time, she brought a level 8 black dragon, which had more attack and defense bonuses.
Compared with Xu Lai's bonus, even if the special skills and dragon's blood bottle are superimposed, they are not enough.
Not to mention Xu Lai, Elvi’s few bonuses alone have already surpassed Moriel.
Taking the lead can increase morale by 5 points and attack by 20 points. Because the leaders are all angels, you and these angels can also increase attack by an additional 20 points.
When morale is at full value, it has little effect, but these 40 points of attack power are very impressive.
Not to mention the basic attack of Archangel, plus the 26 attack points of the Angel Alliance and the 6 attack points brought by the 20% attribute bonus of tactics, the additional basic attack power alone is 72 points.
That's not all. Although Tahan is in the city, his fearless aura can cover a terrifying distance of 5,000 meters, and can also increase attack by 10 points and morale by 8 points.
Because they could not use spells, all the Holy Light Knights gave their blessings to every angel early on.
That’s why Xu Lai didn’t bring the priests and priests down, otherwise they could have blessed more blessing spells.
After blessing the high-level blessings of the Holy Light Angels, each Archangel and Seraph has 100 additional attack points.
This is just the basic attack power. You need to enjoy a total of 105% bonus from morale, prayer, offensive skills and tactical flying formation.
Of course, after these bonuses, the ultimate defense technique will be weakened by 50%, which is equivalent to more than 100 points.
But this is already very scary. You must know that the archangels themselves still have attack power. After this 105% bonus, even if the ultimate defense is reduced, they can still deal their original damage.
The ultimate offensive technique can also ignore 15% of defense. Even if critical hits are not counted, on average each archangel can do at least 180+ damage.
The 180 extra damage was due to bad luck. It hit solid parts such as claws, or it attacked the naturally growing black dragon.
In fact, the average archangel can generally cause 200+ damage in one blow. Even the black dragon blessed by Moriel cannot withstand 3 hits.
From time to time, a small golden shield will flash on the black dragon's body, which can resist arrows or attacks from angels.
The chance of the small shield appearing is not high, only about 10%, but it can reduce the damage by 50% every time it appears. It should be a high-end treasure carried by Moriel.
But even so, the angels also have a 10% chance of double attack with the ultimate offensive technique, a 5% chance of a knowing blow, and a 20% chance of a lucky hit.
Although these three special effects have the same attributes, they are different from each other, so they cannot be simply superimposed with probability.
But the chance of triggering a critical hit is always a little bit more than the 10% luck and 10% double of the black dragons.
As long as one of the effects is triggered, the archangel's damage will jump to 400+, directly causing a black dragon to be seriously injured and dying.
If two effects are accidentally triggered, the damage will directly reach 900+. Not to mention ordinary black dragons, even those natural black dragons with higher health points will be directly killed.
What’s even more frightening is that there are more than 30 Seraphs rushing in front. Their basic attacks are higher and they cause higher damage.
Especially as a top-level unit, there is also rank suppression against the black dragon. That is to say, when facing the black dragon, the Seraph has an additional attack bonus, and the black dragon will automatically ignore part of its defense.
Seraphs cannot kill a black dragon with one sword, but killing a black dragon is only a matter of two swords. Triggering any special effect is an instant kill.
Of course, the black dragon's attacks are also terrifying. Although physical attacks cannot break defenses, spell attacks are not affected by defenses.
Even if there are seraphs who are not afraid of flames rushing forward, because the black dragon's breath covers a wide enough range, some archangels will still be burned by the flames.
The black dragon's breath damage is very high, and it is continuous fire damage, which will last for about 3 seconds. It can cause at least about 40 points of damage per second, and the total damage exceeds 100 points.
Xu Lai's ultimate resistance cannot directly resist the black dragon's flame breath, because although these breaths are magic damage, they are not magic.
However, although his resistance cannot directly resist, it can withstand injuries.
It's not as exaggerated as the 50% defense spell. 25% plus the anti-magic cloak and rune trousers can offset 40% of the damage.
Equivalent to these angels, as long as they are hit by the breath, even if they just wipe off the edge, they will lose more than 20 points of blood.
Originally, the units in the sky were immune to the fire element and the black dragon, so the black dragon did not breathe very much, which made Xu Lai careless. "Damn it, I forgot to add firebending magic to them."
Xu Lai was busy summoning elemental creatures, thinking that if Moriel couldn't cast spells, there was no need to consider the fire element. Hurt.
But there is still time now. It has been some time since the light of destruction was released just now.
Sure enough, half a minute later, Moriel, who cast the spell first, also released her second round of spells in advance.
This time, what Moriel released was no longer the fire spell she was good at, but a light blue light that flashed across the entire battlefield.
The effect of this spell is very obvious and familiar.
The blue light swept across, and all the magic states on the battlefield were instantly cleared. It was the dispersal method that Xu Lai was very familiar with.
After the dispersion method, the attack acceleration effect on one's own troops disappeared, and the density of the arrow rain immediately dropped a lot visibly to the naked eye.
However, after each burst of arrow rain, several black dragons still fell to the ground. When hit by the volleys of crossbow carts or crossbowmen, more than a dozen of them could be killed at a time.
Compared with before, 7 or 8 black dragons died every second. This speed has been reduced a lot, but Moriel is still not very satisfied.
With a command, all the black dragons, regardless of whether they could be sprayed or not, let out a collective breath of fire.
The blazing flames almost dyed the entire underground red.
At the same time, a fiery red light also fell on the archangels.
Ordinary fire-bending magic can only cover one army. Xu Lai chose the most important archangel.
After the angels took action, no black dragon could overcome the obstacles, so there was no need to use the fire-bending magic on other troops.
After being blessed with the magic of fire control, the power of the flame breath is only 30%. As long as you don't stay in the flames all the time, you will lose about ten points of health if you are occasionally sprayed once.
Xu Lailai was so dazzled that he could only focus on the key target of Elvy.
But not Reina. She knew that the fire element and the black dragon were expendable victims.
Therefore, while ensuring that the sky defense line is sufficient, she also pays attention to the blood volume of the angels at all times.
Whenever the archangels' health points drop, there is no need for a red warning line, as long as the health points turn yellow.
That is, when it is below 50%, almost 200 health points, she will mobilize this archangel to come back to rest.
There is no way to use spells to recover, but the physical constitution of these high-level creatures is extremely high. With the help of logistics, the recovery speed during non-combat periods will be greatly increased.
They were unable to use props and items themselves, but Xu Lai acquired many healing props, such as the healing guard that he had used before and found it useful.
Call the angels back and insert the healing guards again. After a minute or two, they are full of life again.
If that’s not enough, Xu Lai, Su Ya and others can also help them give them medicine.
Other healing potions cannot be used. Sprinkling a bottle of holy water on these archangels will definitely be of great help.
The flames spread all over the sky, and most of the attacks hit the front layer of defense.
The fire element is not afraid of flames, and the collective breath this time has extremely poor effect.
Elvi led a group of Seraphs, facing the breath, and got into the group of black dragons.
But just like the black dragons, they cannot break through the two barriers in the sky in a short time.
Although Elvi and the others are invincible and invincible, they are unable to penetrate these huge groups of black dragons.
On the ground, the densely packed black dragon corpses were extremely exaggerated.
As for Moriel, she doesn't really have infinite black dragons, otherwise she would have unified the entire world long ago.
This was only more than half an hour of fierce fighting, and she had already suffered losses that she could not bear.
Seeing that there was no way to break through in the sky, she immediately ordered these black dragons to land and attack the city from the ground.
However, the black dragon is not a siege weapon after all. Its ability to destroy city walls and gates is extremely poor, but it can at least do some damage.
It's just that Moriel didn't let them actually attack the city, but borrowed ground passages to bypass the obstacles in the sky.
Xu Lai couldn't believe that these flying black dragons actually climbed up the city by climbing the city wall.
These black dragons have wings after all. Even if the city wall is erected at 90°, it will not be able to stop these guys at all.
Fortunately, there are legions of swordsmen and heavily armored crossbowmen on the city wall. The black dragon is not invincible even on the city wall.
But after they climbed onto the city wall, they only needed a dozen black dragons to spit flames throughout the entire city wall passage.
The phantom shooters on the arrow tower were frantically sniping at the black dragons that climbed onto the city wall.
Even Xu Lai pulled out the Prophet's Sword and led the Holy Light Knights into the sea of fire to fight.
With the blessing of the ultimate offensive technique, melee combat can ignore 15% of the defense. However, the black dragon's defense is too high. Even if 15% is ignored, the shield-wielding infantry cannot break the defense.
Swordsmen may not be able to break through defenses, but Crusaders can break through defenses stably.
Furthermore, the output of the Crusaders in the double-knife style is very high. One attack outputs twice, and separate lucky hits, double hits, etc. are calculated.
The number is too small. As more and more black dragons climb up the city wall, long-range troops such as ballistae and crossbowmen are already under threat.
Paladins have extremely strong defense, but when they are unable to charge, their output is even worse than that of the Crusaders.
After all, the Holy Light Knight is at level 8, and it is not a problem to fight a black dragon alone, even with the breath of the black dragon.
But if this continues, the casualties will be very high. After all, the black dragon's output is AOE. Even if the shield soldiers and crossbow soldiers cannot hit them, they will be swept away by the breath.
Therefore, Xu Lai urgently called up Tahan and his heroic knights downstairs.
With this group of output experts, especially Tahan, the level 9 fearless knight, the targets attacked by these people can ignore 30% of their defense.
Combined with the 45% of the offensive skills, it is equivalent to the black dragon losing half of its armor. In this way, level 5 swordsmen and paladins can cause considerable damage.
Xu Lai swung the Prophet Sword round. His attack power was extremely exaggerated. With the blessing of the artifact, whenever a giant dragon approached, he would either be killed or seriously injured.
Even these dragons are very powerful. Every collision between Xu Lai and the dragon requires a lot of physical strength. (End of this chapter)
