Chapter 75: Survive from Death
Ten seconds later, there was another loud bang. The second siege vehicle was in place and crashed heavily into the city wall more than ten meters away. Another round of shouting and fighting rang out.
Not long after, the third and fourth siege vehicles connected with the city wall not far to the left and right, and more gnolls rushed up the city wall along the siege vehicles.
Long Fa arrived in front of one of the siege vehicles, opened his mouth and spurted out a breath of dragon , which quickly spread and turned the siege vehicle and the city wall into a sea of fire. The werewolves crowded on this level immediately turned into human-shaped fire matrixes and let out miserably screams.
Although the siege vehicle was made of wood, it had a rough structure and was covered with iron in many places. In addition, the wood had been processed to make it less likely to catch fire. The power of the dragon's breath, which was only at the second level of the dragon technique, was not strong enough to burn the siege vehicle.
But he just stayed in front of this siege vehicle. After a while, some werewolf infantry rushed up from below. When they were almost gathered, he sprayed another breath of dragon over.
At the entrance of each of the other two siege vehicles, there were five Modao soldiers guarding the door. Whenever a werewolf rushed out, they would kill him one by one. If two came, they would kill two. If five came, they would kill five.
The elite Modao soldiers are extremely powerful, and even the third-level elite gnolls cannot withstand a single blow from them.
In addition, there are a large number of soldiers behind the Modao soldiers waiting to finish off the enemy. Even if ten of them rush forward at a time, they will not last more than three seconds before being killed.
The last siege vehicle was led by ten heavy infantrymen , and dozens of third-level elite infantrymen were resisting head-on. Their defense was strong, their shields were carefully synthesized by Li Qing, and their weapons were made of high-carbon steel and were very sharp.
In addition, Li Qing's talent can increase his subordinates' physique by 30%, strength by 30%, speed by 30%, resistance by 30%, and immunity to hypnosis and fear.
And strategic talents can reduce damage by 12%.
With multiple superpositions, their attack, defense and survivability are all maximized, making their overall combat effectiveness extremely powerful.
Four siege vehicles could carry thirty or forty people at a time, but they were blocked at the exit and couldn't get out.
Even four ladders approached one by one and hooked onto the city wall. Four teams of jackals climbed up the ladders to the top of the city, but they were unable to break through the tight defense of a group of big men.
But this situation did not last long. As time went on, the enemy's mage group gradually approached the battlefield.
This group of mages came from the territory mages of Grand Lord Haranm, some of them were apprentices of Master Kendin. There were more than twenty of them in total, with levels ranging from level two to level five, and only one of them was level five.
All mages above level three cast levitation spells to fly to a height of a hundred meters above the city wall and begin casting spells.
Four fireballs flew onto the city wall and exploded on the top of the city wall. The flames engulfed half of the fan-shaped area on the top of the city wall. More than a dozen imperial infantrymen within the area on the top of the city wall were killed on the spot.
Then two ice storms flew out, and powerful magical hail fell on a large area of the walls of the two siege vehicles. The soldiers in it were quickly frozen, and the fourteen soldiers who failed to escape in time died on the spot.
At the same time, a large black cloud of death appeared on the wall of another siege vehicle, covering a section of more than 20 meters on the entire wall. The area was so large that even the jackals in the siege vehicle were affected.
However, when the Death Cloud Spell was cast, Li Qing happened to cast the Magic Shield.
As a result, the human side was not affected at all, but the death cloud spread, and many jackals on the siege vehicles died.
However, even without the magic shield, the human side will be fine. His strategic talent is not a vegetarian. It comprehensively improves 30% of physique and 30% of resistance. Coupled with the strategic attribute damage reduction, spells like Death Cloud, which have a large killing range but low average damage, can almost be directly exempted.
"Sharpshooters, get ready, focus your fire on Mage No. 1!"
Li Qing gathered ten fourth-level sharpshooters and aimed at the target at the same time.
At the same time, Li Qing also pointed and shouted:
"Remove the magic!"
With the bonus of divinity, Li Qing's spells were all enhanced by 100% in power and effect, directly removing the wizard's protective arrows and levitation spell. Ten arrows were fired at once, but only two hit the target. However, the snake wizard fell from more than 100 meters in the air and died on the spot.
"Huh!"
This was a little beyond Li Qing's expectations.
To be honest, it was his first time fighting with other wizards, and he didn't expect his spells to be so effective that he could remove the second spell at the same time after removing the protective arrows.
If I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have asked my subordinates to cooperate.
But it’s not too late to know now, so he pointed at the second target again.
The second snakeman wizard was a fourth-level wizard. He reacted as soon as the first snakeman wizard was hit. As soon as Li Qing cast the spell, he immediately cast a counter spell to cancel the magic.
Li Qing cast the dispel magic again without hesitation. With the support of the super magic skill spell, the casting speed was very fast. The snake man wizard was one level higher than him but was much slower. He could only watch the spell effect on his body disappear, and then fell from a height of hundreds of meters.
If you fall from a height of hundreds of meters without any defensive spells, you will die even if the ground below is entirely water.
Two mages were killed instantly . The other mages became alert and gave up bombarding the city walls. They united and decided to kill Li Qing first.
The most powerful five-ring snake mage among the mages waved his staff and cast a five-ring malicious transformation spell.
The effect of this spell is to force weak targets to transform into small movements.
Li Qing only felt that his vision was changing rapidly, everything became huge, and the figures of his subordinates not far away suddenly became like giants.
But it only lasted for two seconds before the divine creature's super strength and resistance took effect, and his vision instantly returned to normal.
But in just these two seconds, four fireballs and a lightning beam hit him, and at the same time, a series of negative effects such as human immobilization, aging, weakness, blindness, exhaustion, fatigue, etc. fell on him.
"grass!"
Li Qing tried his best to perform a flash spell and disappeared from the spot, then appeared more than ten meters away to avoid this round of bombardment, then quickly jumped back and jumped directly off the ten-meter city wall.
There is no way to fight, there are too many mages.
If there is only one, even if it is a five-ring wizard, he can challenge the opponent of higher level with his divine talent and a bunch of super magic skills.
But he was surrounded by a five-ring, two four-ring and a dozen three-ring mages, and he was only a three-ring mage. Even though the spells he cast were definitely more powerful than theirs, he was limited by his rank and did not know many spells. He could not win against four hands with two fists.
After he jumped into the city wall, the mages were helpless.
If they want to continue killing him, they have to rush to the top of the city wall. This is his territory, and there are hundreds of archers waiting there. Anyone who dares to come will die.
Arrow protection can defend against arrows, but this spell is not invincible. It can block ten arrows, but it cannot block a hundred arrows.
After all the spell effects ended, Li Qing heard explosions coming from the city wall again. The mages were continuing to attack the defenders on the city wall with fireballs or ice storms.
Li Qing quickly cast a series of spells on himself, including flying, protection against arrows, and protection against energy damage.
He then used the mirror technique to create four identical phantoms, and controlled the phantoms to fly onto the city wall.
Li Qing recited silently in his heart, and after about five seconds of the phantom appearing, his real body also flew up. Then he saw several spells removing the magic effects on the phantom, and then lightning beams and fireballs blasted it to death.
Li Qing immediately seized the opportunity and took advantage of the interval between the spells cast by a four-ring snake wizard to remove the flying spell on him, and then fired a string of magic missiles into the air to break the wizard into two pieces.
Then he threw another fireball towards the city wall not far away. A fireball strengthened by divinity exploded, turning a large number of soldiers near the ladder into charcoal.
After killing a fourth-ring mage, he turned around without hesitation and jumped off the city wall again.
After three mages died in a row, the Snake Mage Group was no longer as arrogant as before. They distanced themselves from the city wall and gathered together to discuss something.
Li Qing took a furtive glance, thought for a moment, and cast a series of enhancement spells on himself, including acceleration, bear's tenacity, bull's strength, cat's grace, fox's cunning, and a flying spell, then he flew up and rushed towards them.
At the same time, from an angle that they could not detect, many instructors who were watching the game were very quiet. They looked at the light screen in front of them with flickering eyes, and then looked at Nie Yang on the other side with a serious expression.
“It was an exciting battle!”
One of the instructors suddenly laughed:
"The fight just now was very exciting. I don't think any apprentice can do it at this stage."
"But he's not in a good situation right now."
Another instructor looked at Nie Yang and said:
"If nothing unexpected happens, your student will definitely not be able to resist. Do you need to use that authority?"
Nie Yang looked hesitant, and was somewhat moved.
This authority is for the instructor to request the academy to intervene, using the power of the War Academy's War Mage Tower, Blackrock Tower, to forcibly rescue an apprentice from crisis.
Each tutor has a different number of uses depending on his or her tutor level.
To use this permission, the tutor’s points will be deducted.
Every mentor who trains a certain number of formal war lords, or if an apprentice performs well in some academy-wide actions, can earn a certain number of points for the mentor, and the mentor's status depends on the points.
Therefore, most of the time when your apprentice is in danger, the mentor can theoretically use points to help you escape from danger.
But this is only in theory. In reality, if an ordinary apprentice with no future is in danger, the mentor will generally ignore it.
Of course, in most cases, when apprentices encounter danger while out exploring, the mentor doesn’t know about it and cannot help even if he wants to.
Only some very outstanding apprentice mentors will always pay attention and be able to rescue apprentices when they are in danger.
So what Nie Yang was hesitating about at this moment was whether to exercise this authority and pay a huge price to save Li Qing.
In his opinion, Li Qing at this moment could never be the enemy's opponent as the difference in strength was too great. Even if he could resist now, he could only resist for a while. Once the two war lizards finished eating and went out to fight, this ten-meter-high city wall would not be able to withstand it at all.
After all, war lizards are twenty meters in size, so climbing up a ten-meter city wall is not a problem for them.
Of course Li Qing knew the answer to this question, but the reason he stayed to fight was because he couldn't run away.
How could he not run if he could? He had been blocked from both sides by the enemy, which had more than 20 mages and a great wizard who had taken the retreat route. It was impossible for him to escape.
But Li Qing was not the kind of man who was willing to wait for death. While he was defending, he had already thought of a strategy to break the impasse and was now implementing it.
The first step of the plan, of course, is to lure the Snake Man Wizard away first. Without luring this guy away, all other plans will be in vain.
The second step of the plan was to enter into a full-scale war with the snake-man army, and this step has also been completed.
The third step of the plan was to kill as many enemies' mages as possible. This was not completed. We only killed three of them, which did not even amount to a serious injury to the enemy.
There is no time to wait any longer, we must act regardless of whether the plan has been completed or not.
Li Qing let out a light breath, cast a series of spells on himself again, and then let out a sharp long howl. After a few minutes, a black eagle rushed over from the golem puppet side of the battlefield.
The golem puppets had no way to intercept them, and they didn't even attack the city, but with more than 500 golems guarding this side, they couldn't escape from here either.
This thing is made entirely of mud and rocks, lined up in a line that they definitely won't be able to break through in a short time.
Once they are surrounded, they will soon be surrounded and killed by the snake-man troops coming from all sides.
When the Black Hawk entered the field, Li Qing added a series of acceleration and defense spells to the Black Hawk in one breath, and then issued a series of orders, asking the troops to change guards one by one and make preparations, and then rode the Black Hawk into the sky and rushed to the rear.
The snake-man mage group on the other side were stunned when they saw this scene. After hesitating for three seconds, they heard the order from the snake-man overlord ordering them to assist in the siege.
Without anyone to intercept them, Li Qing could safely fly in the air and bombard the area below with all kinds of spells.
Fireballs were thrown onto the city wall, and more than a dozen of them exploded at once.
Ice storms raged on the city walls, and ordinary soldiers could not stop them at all. Soon, a large number of snake soldiers rushed onto the city walls from the siege vehicles and forced out a space.
With the support of the Mage Corps, more and more snakemen and gnolls came up, expanding the area of the occupied city wall.
In just five or six minutes, the snakeman army captured three sections of the city wall that had been impossible to climb just now. Judging from the pace, the city wall could be captured without the help of war lizards. This unusual scene surprised the snakeman nobles.
But the surprise only lasted for a few seconds. Suddenly, the face of the snake-man female mage standing next to him changed. She suddenly stretched out her head from the back building and looked up at the sky. Her pink forked tongue stuck out, and a trace of fear appeared on her face:
"Oh no, I feel death coming!"
The snakeman lord did not react for a moment and asked:
"What's the meaning?"
"No time to explain, let's move first."
At this moment, a wizard finally sensed something and looked up, and saw a black dot hovering somewhere unknown above his head.
Before he could say anything, a larger black dot suddenly appeared out of nowhere and then fell rapidly.
The stone rubbed violently with the air and fell rapidly. The surface of the stone quickly turned red and soon a flame ignited and wrapped around the stone, and it fell like a meteorite.
Li Qing was sitting in a Black Hawk at an altitude of more than 3,000 meters above the ground, watching the meteorites falling. He bit his lips clenched, the muscles on his face trembling, and quickly changed positions, dropping the second, third, and fourth meteorites at different locations.
The only way to survive is to throw a meteorite, regardless of the life or death of his own men, resulting in complete destruction to both sides.
There is no other way. I can’t win at all. The only thing I can do is overturn the table.
