MTL - Dawn of the Grey Tower-Chapter 31 Night Fight (Part 2)
With a large number of wooden spears thrown into the camp, the battlefield situation once again leaned quickly towards the ratmen. After paying a terrible price, the Hammer Knight reluctantly rescued the wounded under the war horse, but those war horses shot by wooden spears had no way but to leave them in place. The rescued wounded and uninjured horses were concentrated near the campfire, while those who could move raised their shields to form a defense around the campfire.
"How many of these guys are there?"
The sword pierced the native ratmen who were on the way, and Jack said a question everyone wanted to ask. Although the specific number of ratmen in the dark is uncertain, but judging from the number of wooden spears fired, including the native ratmen in close combat, the number of these attackers is at least fifty, which is a horror The number, because up to now, in the case that nearly ten people have been lost, there are only twenty native ratmen that can be confirmed to be killed. It seems that the one-to-two battle loss ratio is very impressive, especially the human side mostly only lost their combat power temporarily because of injury, but do n’t forget that more than thirty people on the scene are elite knights of the Hammer Knights and Frost The best among the guards can only play this kind of battle loss ratio at such a team level, especially several consecutive planned attacks, so that the danger of these native ratmen has rapidly increased.
"No, these native ratmen have problems." Since the release of the vine spell, the cheese has been forcibly protected behind the battlefield, and the mage who lost the ability to move one arm is too dangerous on the battlefield with wooden spears flying around. Neither the Frost Guard nor Heather can take this risk. And thanks to this, the mage once again observed some abnormal things.
"The only problem is that they are very outrageous, and the number is also outrageous!" The sword separated a flying wooden tenon, and even Heather couldn't help saying.
"The power of these wooden spears is not right. The first wooden spear instantly penetrated a warrior wearing armor, but if you look at these throwing spears, you can use a sword to block them. They are too weak! "
Actually, it ’s not like the master said that everyone present can feel this. After all, the sound of the first wooden tenon flying out in the dark is too scary. If the attack strength of each wooden spear has such a strength, I am afraid that the people present have been shot as hedgehogs. But I understand that I want to understand this on the rapidly changing battlefield. This means that this is another matter. Although a warrior can quickly insert the enemy ’s weakness with his combat experience, he is facing On the basis of opponents of the same type, if you want to find the enemy's weakness in the first battle and at an absolute disadvantage, neither Heather nor Mona can do it. But fortunately, cheese can.
"What do you mean?" The female warrior asked. She knew that the mage's next answer would likely change the outcome of the battle.
"I think there should be a special individual in these native ratmen, it is leading these ratmen to make such a tactic of feinting, and it is also the first wooden spear that it throws with exceptional power!" The cheese shouted loudly. Replied.
"You mean like the big guys who are cavemen?" The knight of the horsewoman quickly reacted, thinking of the cavemen who had fought before, and the speculation of the cheese was very likely.
"But I know what I can do? This leading guy is much more cunning than the fools who can only dig holes." "Monkey" tried to use a bow and arrow to fight back, but the darkness outside the firelight made people wonder whether it would have any effect. .
"By the way, do you still have the kind of stone you used in the cave?" Elsa thought of the lighting used by the cheese in the cave before. In such an open environment, the lighting of torches and luminous stones The range may actually be larger than the former, so no one thought about letting the cheese make the lighting stone again.
Hearing the boss lady ’s words, the cheese also thought that using the lighting stone as a sign of guidance was a way, so he quickly rummaged through his pocket and wanted to find the materials for making the lighting stone.
"I found it, and I can make two more!" The mage said, lighting up one of the lighting stones with one hand using skilled techniques.
Heather, they had not seen the mage to make this kind of lighting tool before, and naturally did not know its use. In her view, this kind of luminous stone is indeed a good lighting equipment, but it is not enough to expand their current lighting range.
This problem also puzzled the cheese and Elsa, although they now have a lighting stone, but if the mage ignites the whole stone at one time like last time, this can certainly illuminate the surrounding environment, but the strong light will also The warrior who affects his own side, even if he finds the leading ratman, it is impossible to kill the other side in a short lighting time. But once the enemy is given a sense of crisis, with the cunning of the opponent, I am afraid that it will not give the human side a second chance.
Just when the situation reached a deadlock again, the mage saw the bow and arrow in Jack's hand.
"I thought of a way!" The cheese shouted.
"Monkey, Heather, I need your help."
The two called by the mage temporarily withdrew from the war circle and retreated to the mage, waiting for the instructions of the cheese.
"Listen, the gray apatite glows because of burning. I used to heat it in one breath and let it burn out in a very short time, so as to emit a strong light. But this time, I will try to use To heat it at a low temperature, no, maybe it is more appropriate to ignite it. "The cheese said very quickly that neither of them understood.
"In short, Heather, I need you to throw this stone around a piece of cloth and throw it into the pile of ratmen. The guy in charge of the command should be in the densest place where the wooden spear is thrown. Then, Jack, I want you Shoot this stone with a bow and arrow. Remember, you must shoot it above the crowd of rats. I will enchant your arrow so that it can detonate the gray phosphorite. Those debris after the explosion can provide us with before falling. A longer horizon. Do you understand? "
After both of them nodded to understand, the cheese handed the illuminated stone in the hand to Heather, and the head horsewoman observed it for a while, aiming at the position of the native ratmen, waiting for the password for the next step.
"Elsa, I'm going to enchant Jack's arrow. You can order it." The mage stood next to the archer and said to the boss.
Although Elsa had not participated in the Frost Warrior ’s military operations before, she also knew that she must stand up now, not to mention that the cheese is willing to trust herself at this critical moment, which in itself makes the boss lady full of determination.
"Okay, I get it. Huh ..., three! Two! One! Throw!" Taking a light breath, Elsa issued the password for throwing.
The illuminating stone wrapped in the cloth was thrown into the air by Heather with the last shout, like a star of hope rising from the ground. The eyes of the "monkey" followed this meteor. When the illumination stone flew to a certain point in the sky, the bow and arrow pulled away the hunting bow. The arrow on the bow enchanted by the wizard flashed a dark red color.
Loose your hand, move the string, and shoot out the arrow! All in a flash, the arrow with the hope of everyone flew towards the lighting stone. However, a cold wind blew, and the arrow shuddered slightly in the air, missing the falling lighting stone. The lighting stone hit the ground and soon lost its light.
"" A rough saying with the characteristics of the Northlanders came out from Jack's mouth. He has always had great confidence in his archery. The critical moment at this moment made the son of the Orion quite angry and angry.
"Don't be afraid, there is another one here." Although the cheese also regretted the failure, the mage knew that it was not time for a discussion error. He quickly lit up the remaining gray apatite and gave it to Heather again.
The long knight took the last hope. She looked at Elsa, who was in charge of the order, and signaled that she was ready. The proprietress got the knight's gesture and asked the mage and archer again. After getting the ready signal, she took a deep breath.
"Three! Two! One! Throw!" The second password sounded, and another lighting stone was thrown at the Ratman.
With another exceptionally loud string, a red arrow traversed a perfect trajectory in the night sky, accurately hitting the lighting stone.
"Mid!" At this moment, everyone present could not help exclaiming. Immediately afterwards, the illuminated stone shattered in the air glowed strongly due to the enchanted arrow. It instantly ignited the wrapped cloth, and the light produced by the burning made the squirrel hidden in the dark reveal their appearance. UU reading www. uukanshu.com
"There! There are two!" The sharp-eyed knight saw through the burning dust the two out-of-body existences of the native ratmen. They were exceptionally tall, about twice as tall as the average ratmen, even if their thick arms were overgrown. The black hair can't hide its terrifying power. It seems that this dead man was the one who shot the deadly wood tenon. And the existence of another alternative ratman was beyond the expectations of the cheese. I saw a giant ratman with a gray-haired ratman on the side. Its hair color was off-white, and its body was thinner than the ordinary ratman. It looks like Gloria, which has been stabilized and mutated, but although it stands beside the giant ratman, its sense of existence is not weaker than the latter. This gray-haired squirrel has a pair of narrow eyes. The cheese is only seen from a distance. He knows that the squirrel commander must be this squirrel, because the green eyes have the mage never in the other. What is seen in the eyes of the primitive ratmen-wisdom.
"I'm going to get the big one, Frost, you get the gray hair!" Heather pulled out the knight's sword and dashed out of the defense circle.
Mona and Jack were not far behind. The two of them also caught weapons to catch up with the long knight's footsteps. At the same time, three knights also followed as cover.
"For the hammer!" The familiar battle roar sounded again and again.
Seemed to respond to friendly forces, and the two of the front charge and Elsa also shouted.
"For the Frost Legion!"
Seeing that the night is coming to an end, this fierce battle will soon have its ending. The cheese seemed to be infected by the atmosphere of the battlefield. Although he did n’t shout any slogans, this was the first time he felt a flame burning in his heart, and a primitive desire for battle made his eyes flash unconsciously. With a dangerous light.
