The Phantom Arrow Saint has the attribute of being sure to hit. Among the three quivers, there is also a bag of phantom heavy arrows that can ignore some defenses.
Those hellfires that bypassed or passed through the giant beasts were immediately targeted by these phantom arrow saints.
They have the attribute of being sure to hit. As long as they are within sight, there is no possibility of deviation.
As for the Hellfires in the back row, because they are blocked by the Hellfires in the front row, they can neither attack others nor be seen by the shooters.
No matter how high the phantom shooter's hit rate is, invisible enemies can only be estimated.
Under Giselle's command, they looked up to the sky and fired, letting the arrows fall from the sky and land in a designated general area.
The good news is that each of these big guys is a little giant, and there are so many of them that it is not easy to miss.
With the blessing of ultimate archery and phantom heavy bow, no matter how far the shooting range is, it can deal full damage. No, it should be excessive damage.
Even if the phantom arrows only do half the damage, tens of thousands of arrows are fired at once, and a large number of them will die.
The bad thing about phantom archers is that although they can bring out a lot of phantom arrows, they don't really have many archers after all.
The phantom arrows must surround the main arrow, so although there are many arrows, the strike range is relatively concentrated.
In other words, Hellfire has thick skin and thick flesh, and high health, so it will not waste too much output.
With the output of the Phantom Shooter, the pressure on the front line is obviously much less.
Although the phantom archer's arrows are concentrated, they can't stop them from shooting too fast. There is also the 5 points of agility of the God of War statue, the 20% attack speed of the divine speed, and the bonus of full morale.
It seems that the phantom shooter is not using a bow and arrow, but a repeating crossbow with unlimited ammunition.
Just simply pull the trigger, and the crossbow arrows will fly out continuously.
The bursts of arrow rain soon formed holes one after another on the side of Hellfire.
In the gate of hell, demons from hell are still coming out in a steady stream.
But at least at the front line, these holes cannot be filled instantly.
Soldiers who have gained a breather can wear some healing bandages even if they don't have life potions, and cooperate with the priest's group slow healing (recovery technique) to quickly restore their health.
As for the hellfire holes on the front line, not only are they not being replenished quickly, but they are becoming more and more numerous.
At this rate, these 6 or 7 thousand hellfires will not even be enough to cover the approach of the lava troll.
If we delay any longer, all the hellfires ahead may die.
Long-range attacks can focus fire, unlike infantry combat, where one person can chop.
No matter how fast your attack speed is, I will chop you down several times, but you still have to chop me down.
Even if a ninth-level Hell Hydra appears on the battlefield, its nine heads can instantly kill the opponent, and it can kill up to nine Hellfires at a time.
And after they block the front, no matter how strong the warriors behind them are, they can't make a move.
In the air, it can strike in all directions, and the melee troops are better than those on the ground.
The Seraphs were unstoppable, but the giant dragons kept falling under the tickling of the fire elves.
These giant dragons all have anti-magic skins. Unless you use holy light spells of level 4 or above, you can barely treat level 7 dragons such as red dragons and green dragons.
However, these dragons could only exist for 3 hours, and nearly an hour was wasted before the battle began.
Now, the battle has lasted for more than half an hour. Even if the health value is increased, one can only survive for an hour at most.
Level 4 Holy Light Spell, currently only Anna, as the Archbishop, can cast it.
The mana consumed by just a level 4 holy light spell is far less than that of throwing a group recovery and group treatment to recover more.
As for the black dragon and golden dragon, there is really no way to save them. They are immune to level 4 and level 5 spells, so there is no way.
Mendis had no choice but to mobilize a group of faster fire elves to rush over to support.
On the other side, he also ordered the lava trolls to gather forward and attack the summons.
The opportunity for the second round of casting has already arrived, but the devil’s side has no speed advantage at all.
After surviving rounds of enemy attacks, Xu Lai was unable to cast a spell before it was his turn.
Of course Mendis will not waste this precious casting opportunity.
But he hesitated between the two spells of dispersion and atmospheric shield.
With the ability to fly, Mendis can see the situation on the battlefield more clearly while flying in the air.
Currently, Xu Lai is dispatching only some archers, and tens of thousands of archers and crossbowmen are arrayed behind them.
If these long-range troops are also dispatched, even if they are of a lower level and have much lower damage, their killing ability will exceed their own summoning speed.
Especially when the abyss lords around them who have taken mana potions consume all their mana again, the summoning speed will immediately drop by several levels.
The most critical thing is those level 9 seraphs. The weak fire elves alone cannot suppress them at all.
The fire elves are useless, and sending the winged demon up is the same as sending him to death.
Mendis had to stop calling the Fire Elves and instead summon the Abyss Demon.
As an Abyss Lord hero, Mendis' specialty is training abyss demons and improving their combat capabilities.
With the blessing of special skills, coupled with the inherently stronger attributes of the Abyss Demon than the Fire Elf, although it is still two levels behind Seraph, it is not completely invulnerable to defense.
As long as the defense can be broken, no matter how low the damage is, there is still a chance of death.
Therefore, the first thing Mendis must ensure is still the size of his own army.
If you use the dispersion method to dispel the opponent's fire-bending magic, although it can increase the output of the lava troll and hellfire, it cannot reduce the output of the human shooter.
In the final analysis, humans still have a certain advantage in numbers at this time.
And the lava troll cannot, like the shooter, throw the human shields in the front row and hurt the shooter in the rear.
If you use the atmospheric shield spell, you can directly reduce 50% of the long-range damage.
Coupled with the ultimate defense technique, the opponent's physical long-range output immediately dropped to a quarter.
You know, even though Atmospheric Shield and Ultimate Defense cannot add up to each other, the damage they weaken is pure.
Because Hellfire's own defense has not been reduced.
It is equivalent to if Hellfire itself has 100 points of defense, then the opponent's original 200 points of attack can cause 100 points of damage.
But after reducing the attack to 150 points, it seems that it has only dropped by a quarter, but the damage has become 50 points, which is reduced by half.
Secondly, release the Atmospheric Shield to your own side, and you can also force the opponent to release the Dispersion Technique.
The method of dispersing does not distinguish between friend and foe. To drive them away together is equivalent to wasting a casting opportunity that humans have won with artifacts.
Even if the human heroes do not disperse, our own side will not lose.
And if Xu Lai superimposes the status on the human troops again, then he can consider whether to drive away the two buffs of the humans together.
Sure enough, as soon as the atmospheric shield fell, the long-range output of the human troops immediately dropped by several levels. Coupled with the dwindling number of Hellfires, the phantom shooters were unable to attack hundreds of Hellfires in one round.
After half of the output was intercepted by the Atmospheric Shield, and then blocked by the ultimate defense technique and Hellfire's own defense, there was not much left after the damage was broken.
In the past, hundreds of people could be shot to death in one round, but now a salvo of more than 2,000 phantom shooters could only kill a dozen, which is equivalent to a tenfold decrease.
Xu Lai frowned, but did not return the favor immediately.
On the contrary, he ordered at this time that except for the advance camp and the Naga guards in the front, the entire Qingfeng Army in the rear would press forward.
The reason why the army pressed forward was to be able to attack quickly after the demon showed signs of decline.
Secondly, it was to give Yu Lan a chance to show off.
Yu Lan followed Xu Lai to fight a lot.
But Yu Lan has never been as dazzling as Elwe.
But if you want to say that Elvi is more important than Lan, then Xu Lai will be the first to disagree.
Without him, Yu Lan played an important role in several important battles in Xu Lai.
The first spell Yu Lan released was slowness. Although it was not what Xu Lai wanted most, the effect was not small.
All the spells released by Yu Lan are curses on the enemies, and they cover all enemies.
Even though Yu Lan does not have the four magic bonuses, his effect is equivalent to that of half a magic hero.
Even among the legions, Yu Lan's role is far greater than that of the second magic hero, because she does not conflict with the hero's spellcasting.
Mendis is very confused now.
He still has the opportunity to cast spells. There are still two or three scrolls of dispelling magic in the space ring.
But if I dispel it now, wouldn’t the atmospheric shield I just released be in vain?
Mendis gritted his teeth and refused to release the second dispersal spell, preferring to let the troops move slowly despite the slow effect.
For this last chance to cast a spell, Mendis had to wait until Xu came to cast the spell before making a decision.
Xu Lai snorted coldly and ordered all the cavalry to disperse their formation and put down their lances.
Mendis in the sky understood Xu Lai’s movements instantly.
So many cavalry regiments are a huge threat.
For this reason, he has not been willing to mobilize the hellfire he just summoned in front of the gate of hell.
However, how could a mere 2,000 hellfires stop more than 50,000 cavalry?
Grinding his teeth, Mendis also sent out his Abyss Demon Legion.
He cannot move the Abyss Lord, but he not only brought the Abyss Lord, but also tens of thousands of Abyss Demons.
These abyss demons are different from the ones he summoned just now. He brought them to the main world with great difficulty. It would be heartbreaking for him to die.
There is no way, the fire elves can't attack those giant dragons and seraphs that completely ignore fire damage.
Staying in the air is just cannon fodder to delay time.
Instead of doing this, it is better to bring down these fire elves and block the group of knights who are about to start.
The knight's charge damage is all physical. Even with firebending magic and resistance protection, it only bears a quarter or even less of the fire shield damage.
It is also cost-effective for Mendis to trade 2 or even 3 fire elves for a knight.
After all, these are free temporary summons, and humans are all real people.
Kerrigan had given strict orders, but that didn't mean Mendis had no way out.
As the number one general under Kerrigan, after so many years of fighting in the north and south, there must be hard work and no credit.
Even if he is defeated by Xu Lai this time, as long as he can replace the opponent's main cavalry, Kerrigan cannot blame him too much.
It's just that he didn't even notice it. Before setting off, even before leaving Kasay Castle after getting detailed information, he was full of confidence.
At this moment, Mendis already felt that failure was normal. As long as he could defeat Xu Lai's main force, he could complete the task.
Facing the fire elves with the fire shield, Xu Lai also had a headache.
He does have a way to temporarily eliminate the influence of the fire elves.
But even if all the Holy Light Knights under his command are invincible, they can only cover more than a thousand people in the front row, and only for one minute.
But if you don’t use invincibility, the knight at the forefront can kill many fire elves, but he himself cannot escape the fate of being shot to death by the fire aegis.
Just as Mendis thought, Xu Lai also did not think that exchanging the knight's life for some summons could be considered a victory.
In order to prevent this situation from happening, Xu Lai had no other choice.
He took out a level 3 spell scroll from his space backpack and tore it open without hesitation.
Mendis frowned sharply after witnessing this scene.
What he couldn't understand was why Xu Lai wanted to waste a scroll at this time.
Even if he has not yet learned the spells on the scroll, he can just hold this scroll and cast spells. There is no need to waste a precious scroll.
Unless, the spell Xu Lai wants to release cannot be released using the scroll.
But Xu Lai wanted to keep that precious spell-casting opportunity.
Mendis guessed the reason, but there were nearly a hundred strategic spells from the four series. Before Xu Lai released them, no one could guess what spells he was going to use.
With such concerns, Mendis hesitated for a moment and decided to be patient with Xu Lai.
The spell released by Xu Lai is a master-level anti-magic spell. It has only one effect, allowing the selected troops to resist the spell.
Master level is enough to be immune to spells of level 5 and below, and can only bear the damage and effects caused by forbidden spells.
The Fire Elf's Fire Aegis is only level 4. In fact, the advanced anti-magic method is enough to resist it.
Xu Lai unleashed the master-level anti-magic spell because he only had this master-level one.
Up to this point in the battle, both sides have restrained and plotted against each other, and the third round of casting opportunities is about to come.
In the next ten minutes, Xu Lai had to take action if he didn't want to, otherwise if he missed this round of casting, the scroll torn off by the opponent would become meaningless.
In ten minutes, no matter how fast the cavalry charges, how many fire elves can they kill.
This thing was summoned anyway. No matter how many times it dies, you don’t have to feel bad about it, so you can just tolerate it for ten minutes.
Mendis quickly browsed the spell scrolls in the ring, trying to restrain Xu Lai as soon as possible.
At this time, Xu Lai had already taken the lead, leading Roland and others to charge towards the Gate of Hell.
While charging, Xu Lai took out his spell book and turned to the page that lit up with countless blue lights. (End of chapter)
