Chapter 101 Brutal Battle
On the city wall, a large number of human soldiers gathered in several places, fighting with the skeletons and zombies who rushed to the top of the city wall along the slopes of corpses piled up by the backfill tactics.
To be precise, it is a suppression attack.
Even newly promoted recruits can easily cut bones and chop dead flesh with sharp weapons made of high-carbon refined steel.
The super-strong synthetic armor they wore had a defensive power comparable to plate armor. Neither the skeletons' bone swords nor the endless rain of bone arrows from the sky could do anything to them.
Except for the unlucky ones or those inexperienced ones who were shot in the face by bone arrows, no one could do anything to them until the main force of the Undead and their high-level combat forces pushed onto the city wall.
So even though the undead had already attacked the city wall, Li Qing was not too worried.
This is a good opportunity for training soldiers. Soldiers who can survive such a fierce battlefield will rapidly increase their combat experience and skills, and will immediately become elite veterans after one battle.
However, the main force of the enemy had indeed approached the city wall at this time, and Li Qing also began to mobilize the reserve troops, dividing the reserve troops into ten teams of 100 people on standby.
Then there were 4 Iron Golems and 128 Rock Golems, divided into four teams, ready to join the battle at any time.
Then there were 264 cavalrymen, all gathered together and on standby. As soon as the order was given, they would mount their horses and go into battle with the help of many civilians.
After doing all this, Li Qing took out the magic book of war and prepared to cast a spell.
First, open the first page and let your eyes fall on the magic lightning.
He put his hand on it, muttering something, and suddenly a faint golden light lit up in Li Qing's pupils. Then, complex runes suddenly lit up in the energy pool at the bottom of the core tower of the Divine Realm. Then, the full energy pool began to surge without any wind, and a large amount of pure energy was drawn out and surged upwards.
Strands of energy beams shone through the floor, surrounding Li Qing and infusing into his body.
The hand he pressed on the magic book emitted a faint energy aura that was injected into the magic book. The magic book suddenly gushed out a strong magical aura, and a war magic structure that was far superior to previous spells took shape.
Li Qing stretched out his hand and grasped the magic lightning that consumed a full 100 magic points of his energy to cast. He looked at the projection in front of him and threw it lightly upwards. The ball of light flashed into the sky and disappeared.
The next second, a white light flashed at the top of the tall tower in the center of the divine realm, and the ball of war light more than a thousand meters above the top of the tower suddenly lit up, followed by a huge bolt of lightning that broke through the air from the ball of light and blasted towards the battlefield.
“Boom!”
A ball of lightning that was unimaginable to ordinary people exploded in the group of undead, spreading rapidly and eventually covering a full area of 90*90 meters.
Most of the undead in it died on the spot without any reaction. Only a few heroes, resurrected beasts, giant white skeletons, stitched monsters, etc. with strong enough vitality survived.
What does a range of 90 meters by 90 meters mean?
That is close to the killing range of the advanced version of magic lightning.
As the lord of the divine domain, casting spells in the core tower of your own divine domain can fully amplify the spell effects.
Whether it is a war spell, a common spell, or a heroic spell, it will gain ten times the range, three times the killing range or effect, and a bonus of +1 to the killing energy level.
The range and scope are understandable, and the damage level +1 means that the power of the spell is increased by one level.
For example, a fireball is a third-level spell, but after being enhanced by the divine domain, it will become a spell with power equivalent to that of a fourth-level spell.
In addition, this divine domain bonus will be added by a series of talent bonuses from the hero, and will be added on top of the bonus effect of the caster itself. That is to say, the power of the same spell cast by an ordinary mage and a heroic mage will be different.
For example, the 100% bonus of Li Qing's divine talent can also be synchronized, which means that the divine spells he casts will be stronger.
Of course, war magic is another spell system that is cast through the war magic book, so his divine talent cannot add any bonus to it.
A war spell that was close to high-level magic lightning made the lich hero who was gradually approaching the city wall more alert. He was not in a hurry to urge his men to attack, and even did not mobilize the corpse wizard team. He wanted to retain some strength and let his allies consume the strength of this reserve human war lord first.
Now seeing that this human war lord actually knew war spells that he himself did not know, the threat level in his mind increased even more.
After pondering for a while, he used the wind of death to transmit his words to another horror knight hero:
"This enemy is definitely the elite among humans. I think we can't wait any longer. Perhaps we can launch a full-scale attack together."
Soon, the Terror Knight's response came along with the Wind of the Undead:
"In five minutes, I will gather my main forces and launch a fierce attack in my direction. I hope you can do the same."
"Bear witness the Lord of Death, I will do this."
The two undead heroes reached an agreement and immediately began to issue a series of orders to deploy troops.
Li Qing, who had been observing the battlefield, soon discovered the enemy's unusual movements. He quickly ordered observers on the city walls to pay attention and observe. After comparing his findings with his own, he quickly determined the enemy's intention to mobilize troops.
"Commanders of the East and West City Walls, I need you to slowly dispatch 300 men within half an hour and assemble behind the city wall."
"General commanders of the south and north city walls, I will bring these withdrawn troops under your command. You don't have to worry about the losses. You must stop the attack of the undead."
"This is a very difficult war. You all know the consequences of failure without me telling you."
"In addition, this is also our first large-scale troop battle. As a commander, I know what this means. This kind of experience is very rare. I hope everyone will cheer up and observe carefully."
After saying this, Li Qing quickly assigned these troops to the commanders-in-chief of the north and south sections of the city walls, namely An Erqiu and Xie Zhu.
Then……
The enemy's offensive doesn't seem to be much different from before, or at least not much different for the time being.
But Li Qing had been observing the battlefield and could see a large number of undead rushing towards other sections of the city wall and starting to build new siege points using backfill tactics.
Once these siege points are established, the enemy's offensive will intensify.
At this time, Long Shou and Long Fa had killed most of the ghosts and were fighting with the ghost leaders under the command of the two undead heroes. It seemed that they had gained an absolute upper hand.
Seeing this, Li Qing immediately ordered them to spit out dragon breath to destroy more siege points.
Long Shou flew to a city wall where undead were surging. He opened his mouth under the sky full of bone arrows, and a vortex of fire appeared in his mouth. After a short period of accumulation of power, a stream of flaming dragon breath spurted out and quickly spread like a torrent.
At the same time, the dragon magic on the north city wall also did the same, spitting out a torrent of dragon breath that was larger in range than the dragon guard, washing the ground.
The skeleton zombie in the middle melted into ashes on the spot in the LV5 dragon breath. An abominable stitched monster that followed was also affected, and its five-meter body instantly turned into a huge ball of fire.
The rotting flesh and fat added fuel to the fire, and the Stitched Monster lost control and turned into a fireball, charging back and forth in the undead army.
With just one breath of dragon, hundreds of skeleton zombies crowded at the bottom of the city wall were burned to death.
The lich at the back saw a glimmer of excitement in his eyes, raised the blue bone staff in his hand, and let out a silent shout. The many corpse wizards around him raised their bone staffs at the same time, and blue rays of light gathered towards the lich and poured into his body.
With the mana boost from his subordinates, the lich's body was covered in blue light, and a strong soul fire was surging in his empty eye sockets. His bony hand grasped the blue crystal bone staff and slowly raised it upwards, then stopped violently after a few seconds.
In an instant, a strong invisible wave flashed by, and in the next second, the space centered on the dragon magic suddenly twisted violently. An incomparably powerful cold magic power exploded, forming an incomparably strong blue ice ring that exploded like lightning.
The ice ring swept across the group of undead, freezing them in place.
On the other side, the city wall was swept across, and hundreds of soldiers on a section of the wall that was more than 30 meters long were all frozen into ice sculptures.
The dragon magic at the center of the spell fell directly down and fell into the sea of undead below the city wall.
Li Qing was shocked when he saw this, and subconsciously wanted to go out to take a look, but he held himself back the next second. He believed that Long Fa would be fine.
Coincidentally, Long Shou in the south was also counterattacked by the enemy.
Before he had finished breathing out his dragon's breath, the Terror Knight at the back could no longer sit still. He took a black spear from his men, aimed it at the dragon guard, and charged the power for five full seconds.
During this time, a large number of corpse wizards lent their magic power, causing the spear's texture to quickly become transparent and bluish, and finally turned into a crystal clear blue spear. The rich energy turned into blue light and almost overflowed.
This naturally made Long Shou discover that after a breath of dragon was exhaled, it spread its wings and returned to its own side.
However, after five seconds of charging, this terrifying knight hero threw the spear in his hand directly without even aiming.
There was a flash of blue light, and a blue arc flashed like lightning and shot at Long Shou, completely ignoring his strong physique and hard dragon scales and directly piercing through his chest.
Fortunately, Long Shou was alert and retreated back to his own city wall, so he fell directly into the wall and was immediately rescued by Xie Zhu.
Li Qing hurriedly ordered An Erqiu to deal with the more than one hundred soldiers who were frozen to death on the other side to prevent them from being awakened, and then turned around and ordered Xie Zhu to immediately send a few soldiers to send Long Shou over.
He had Long Shou's faith beacon in his mind, so he could clearly tell whether they were dead or not. Although Long Shou's breath was very weak at this moment, he was not dead.
Fortunately, he has dragon blood, and the blood level is high enough, with super strong defense and vitality. If it were Xie Zhu and An Erqiu, this attack would definitely kill them instantly.
So Li Qing kept reminding them to be careful and to jump back into the city immediately if something went wrong.
At this time, the terrifying knight seemed very angry about Long Shou's escape. He picked up a spear again and began to accumulate power.
Li Qing immediately reminded Xie Zhu:
"Jump behind the city wall immediately to take shelter!"
At the same time, he borrowed the power of the divine realm and quickly cast a series of defensive spells for him.
At the same time, on the other side, Long Fa, who had fallen into the group of undead outside the city wall, had awakened from being frozen, but at this time he was surrounded by densely packed undead. Not far away, several undead heroes with powerful auras were pushing away the undead and rushing over.
Long Fa flapped his wings subconsciously, but felt a sharp pain in his back. He discovered that both pairs of wings had been broken, all the dragon scales on his body had shattered, and his body was covered in frozen blood.
The horrific frost attack not only dealt him severe damage, but also temporarily prevented his injuries from worsening further.
But this is only temporary, the magic effect will soon end, and the injuries will be quickly released. Long Fa is very clear about his current condition. As long as the injuries break out, he will soon lose his combat ability.
Two bone swords hit Long Fa's body, waking him up. He then swung his sword in the opposite direction, cutting the surrounding skeleton zombies in half.
He quickly mobilized the dragon power in his body, cast a flying spell on himself, and then used a magic door to fly into the air.
As soon as he stepped out of the door, he saw the ghost leader rushing towards him. He used the necromancy spell to freeze the ghost leader in the air.
Then he saw a flash of light coming and easily piercing through his broken body and passing through his abdomen.
It was a leader of the Undead Knights, who stood up, pulling up a skeleton warhorse. He stretched out his hand and made a fist. The death energy of the spear that pierced his abdomen exploded, directly shattering the flying effect on Long Fa's body, and he fell down again.
At this time, the lich hero let out an evil laugh, stretched out his bone claws and pressed down in the air. With one grab, a large number of scattered bone fragments on the ground flew up, and under the power of magic, condensed into a three-meter-long bone spear that broke through the air.
At this moment, Li Qing, who was fighting with the Terror Knight on the other side, borrowed the power of the divine realm and barely condensed a light shield that appeared in front of Long Fa.
The soul fire flashed in the lich's eyes, and a magic gem ring on the bone hand lit up. The bone spear also lit up, emitting a powerful gravitational force that drew the breath of death in the air, turning it into a gray light and hitting the light shield .
"boom!"
The light shield collapsed, and the bone spear accurately hit Long Fa. The huge force directly sent him flying backwards, and with a "ding" sound, he was nailed to the city wall.
At this time, the ghost hero who was immobilized recovered from the undead immobilization spell in advance by relying on his hero's resistance, and quickly pounced in front of the dying Longfa, opened his mouth, and sucked hard at Longfa's face.
But at this moment , Long Fa suddenly opened his eyes, a sneer appeared on his face. While the ghost hero was shocked, he opened his mouth and spurted out a dragon breath that had been accumulated long ago.
It's not a fan-shaped state, but a dragon's breath ray.
A close-range shot hit the ghost hero's open mouth head-on, and the horrifying dragon breath poured directly into the ghost hero's body, and the transparent ghost body quickly turned into a body of fire.
Melt directly.
This sudden scene stunned the Lich Hero for a moment, and the next second the soul fire in his eyes boiled. The intense anger made all the undead boil and become more fanatical.
The lich hero paused with the bone staff in his hand, and the surrounding corpse wizards cast spells again to contribute their mana.
Gathering the magical powers of all the corpse wizards, the lich's bony hand wrapped in blue flames reached out in the direction of Longfa. The space around Longfa's body expanded and distorted. A transparent hand of light flew out and grabbed Longfa's soul out of his body.
The strong crisis immediately made Li Qing feel alert, but at this time he was fighting with the terrifying knight. This guy did nothing but accumulate power to throw his spear, and his targets were all important units on the city wall, either commanders, fifth-level soldiers, or dragon-veined snakemen, forcing Li Qing to continuously cast spells to intercept them.
However, no matter how important the fifth-level troops are, they cannot compare to the dragon magic.
So he had almost no hesitation. With a thought, a drop of divine power separated from the divinity and was bestowed through the faith coordinates of the Dragon Law in his mind.
