Volume 3: Tides of Darkness Chapter 187 Decapitation Operation
With the addition of the powerful Abyss Demon King and Fire Demon Lord, the tribe's long-range firepower instantly increased to a higher level. The balance of war instantly tilted towards the tribe.
The super powerful AOE magic cast by the two big bosses is like a powerful killing weapon on the battlefield.
The earth was torn apart, magma gushed out, and fire rained down from the sky. The army formation of the Storm Kingdom was suddenly shaky under such a blow and was in danger of collapse at any time.
The most crucial thing is that the elite troops of the Storm Kingdom are almost dead.
Although the Storm Kingdom's 100,000-man army seems like a lot, plus nearly 100,000 adventurers, their numbers are larger than the tribal army that just rushed through the portal, but their quality is completely incomparable.
There are only 30,000 truly elite regular troops in the kingdom, and the rest are private soldiers of the nobles, with varying strengths. The wealthy nobles can train entire teams of knights with distinctive armor, majestic war horses, and extremely strong combat power.
The nobles who had no money could only recruit some low-level troops such as conscripted spearmen and archer militia to make up the numbers.
In comparison, the average strength of the orc army is much stronger. Orcs are far superior to humans in strength and physical strength. Their arms are thicker than human thighs, and they are all muscular men.
Even the most basic orc infantry are third-level soldiers above level 30.
In addition, they drank the blood of demons and went berserk like a group of humanoid beasts. They could fight on equal terms with well-trained regular troops with strict formations, but they were immediately crushed by the militia forces with poor armor and weapons. Before, they relied on a large number of mage troops with long-range fire support from behind to barely fight back and forth with the tribal army.
Now with the addition of two big bosses, even the long-range firepower does not have much advantage, and it suddenly shows a downward trend.
King Ryan stood in the middle of the army with a serious expression.
"We must kill those two powerful demons! Otherwise we will be in danger."
Strictly speaking, the Fire Demon is a creature of the fire element. However, to everyone present, the Fire Demon Lord was burning with flames all over his body, and he definitely looked like a demon. He was even more like a demon than a demon.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. Our warriors are already prepared. Please send out your main force to launch a frontal attack. As long as we can attract the enemy's attention and give our warriors a chance, they will definitely be able to get rid of the two demons."
The person who spoke was an earl. King Ryan still trusted the nobles very much.
"Are you sure you can do this - Lord Downton?"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. Look, these are the warriors . They are all powerful and have the determination and courage to serve the country."
Lord Downton said this and pointed to the team behind him, and suddenly a group of people appeared.
There were hundreds of adventurers, led by two gold-rank heroes, who were players of the Ragnarok Guild led by the Sword of Dawn and the Dark Lord of Night.
After failing to capture Medivh during Ragnarok, the two decided not to stay in Karazhan anymore, as it was obvious that they could not defeat Medivh. Of course, now was a critical time, so they couldn't just let it go and decided to go to the Dark Portal to join the battle.
This is an unprecedented major event in the past two years. How can we not seize the opportunity?
This kind of grand scene is a great place to fish in troubled waters to gain benefits, and a good opportunity to gain plot points. It is not difficult to imagine that as long as you can gain something in this battle, the plot points will definitely increase rapidly, even if you just kill a few soldiers or chop a few orcs, you can still get some.
It would be even more satisfying if we could kill a few important figures of the tribe.
Unfortunately, the people in Ragnarok are all commoners without royal background, so they can forget about leading troops to fight and gaining prominence.
They were too lazy to kill the small monsters and were just waiting for the big monster to attack. Now they finally got the chance.
They had not taken any action before, and were waiting for this opportunity.
"Your Majesty, we are also willing to join the war." The ones who spoke were the players from the Qingyang Empire led by Sallyman. There were also hundreds of people, including several heroes.
Unlike the Ragnarok Guild, which had to rely on the relationships with noble players to receive such important missions, Sallyman herself was the Grand Court Mage. Although she was not a member of the royal family, she still had some connections, and she directly brought the people from her guild here.
King Llane nodded with satisfaction when he saw the two teams. "Warriors, at such a critical moment, heroes like you are exactly what we need. Go ahead and kill those two powerful demons. May the gods be with you. I will send troops to attract your attention."
"Varian, lead your men to attack again."
"Yes, father. I will not let you down." Varian, who was repairing his troops, accepted this difficult task without hesitation.
He rode his horse to the front of the battle and brandished his sword, "Brave adventurers, follow me and kill!"
With a roar, thousands of adventurers, led by Varian, immediately charged towards the center of the tribe. Varian took the lead, slashing wildly with the Salamani in his hand. Wherever he passed, orcs' heads rolled and fell to the ground one after another.
At this time, the armies of both sides were fighting each other on a battlefield that spread over several kilometers, and neither side was able to completely overwhelm the other. This group of adventurers was like a sharp arrow, piercing through three or four lines of defense of the orc army in one breath.
The orc army immediately mobilized the troops of various clans to launch a siege from both sides. Varian was not reckless. When he saw the orcs attacking from all directions, he immediately ordered the adventurers to form a circle for defense. As a result, two sparse gaps appeared on both sides of the orc formation.
The time is now!
The two guild teams immediately rushed through the gap and charged directly towards the two big bosses.
Dawn Sword (Dragonblood Knight): "Don't dismount, follow me, don't stop!"
Sallyman (Court Mage): "Follow me closely, don't separate. Kill the Abyss Demon King and you will win!"
At this time, the two big bosses were still using their ultimate moves.
There are only orc shamans and orc warlocks guarding the area.
Seeing two groups of hundreds of elite adventurers charging towards them on horseback, Gul'dan and Ner'zhul immediately led their men to retreat...
Neither of them is stupid and would not risk their limited assets to fight. It would be a waste if they didn't use the summoned creatures.
The Fire Demon Lord was not at all panicked when facing the siege of the Ragnarok Guild.
Die little bug.
The huge hammer of the Fire Demon, as big as a locomotive, smashed down on the head, as if it was going to smash the tiny human in front of it into a meat patty.
Dawn Sword raised his shield.
Boom! The violent hammering caused the Dawn Sword's legs to sink completely into the mud.
"Oh shit, this BOSS is quite powerful, heal me quickly!"
Dozens of nurses immediately cast various healing and enhancement spells at him.
The mages in the back row also began to output at their full strength, and magic all over the sky crackled and fell on the majestic body of the Fire Demon Lord.
