Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 358. A surprising number of skeletons

Even the fireball technique released by the apprentices of the mages, which has been tempered for countless years by the Enfas Empire, is worthy of its name!

The condensed fire element exploded directly, and the raging and tyrannical flame dragon frantically swept all the obstacles within 15 meters. The scorching temperature was as high as thousands, and the skeleton warrior in the center was directly burned to bone meal!

Even more than 30 meters away from the explosion point of the fireball, the scorching air waves mixed with flames were still rolling in the group of skeletons.

A group of skeleton warriors and skeleton soldiers were sent flying.

Many skeleton warriors were infected with the flames in the air wave, and were instantly turned into bone powder by the high temperature contained, even the tattered ancient armor could not resist the slightest, and turned into powder in the high temperature. fall down.

Throwing down the fireballs, at least thousands of skeleton warriors were directly killed.

This shows the power of magic.

However, after the mage apprentices released all of their 3 fireballs today, they had to step back and hand over their spellcasting position to the Vicia archer behind them.

While spells are powerful, spell slots limit the number of times they can cast spells.

Or staying power.

As long as the bowman has arrows and physical strength, he can shoot unlimited times.

The mage is different. Every day, the spell slots are fixed. After releasing the limited spells in the spell slots, they can only retire sadly.

In fact, in large-scale battles, most of the long-range kills are caused by bowmen.

As for mages, they only appear in strategic positions.

For example, it is about to break through a certain point of the enemy's defense, or to conduct a spell attack on the enemy's elite troops.

Therefore, in ordinary battle scenes, mages will never waste their precious spell slots. After all, when the spells contained in all spell slots fail, the only thing left may be the cowardly body and the more decorative ones in their hands. Wooden stick, even a farmer can't beat it in melee combat.

Even a mage or archmage with more spell slots and more powerful spells will not take risks easily, spending all the spells in their spell slots, and always leaving a few to save their lives.

The same goes for these mage apprentices.

Although the area-killing fireball has been used up, they still have magic bullets.

This is a single-target spell.

The power is like a two-handed sledgehammer.

However, because the release distance is also relatively close, only about 50 meters, so the apprentice mage does not plan to release it. It is more wise to reserve it and prepare to attack the enemy that may appear at the city wall or city gate.

Kant also understands this, but looking at the ant-like skeleton warrior below, his face is depressed.

The empty space that the fireball burst opened has been refilled.

An astonishing number of skeleton soldiers and skeleton warriors poured out in the sky of death, and it was impossible to know how many there were, while the higher-level skeleton cavalry and death knights had yet to show up.

Even other undead arms have not yet appeared.

What Kant now faces may only be the tip of the iceberg of the undead army.

The endless natural disaster of death is to use absolute numbers to crush the enemy troops.

"Just hold on."

Kant's face was grim.

But in his heart, he was still a little out of the blue. He didn't know how many undead troops were in the sky of death. Would it be really endless and could overwhelm the entire sentry oasis.

The skeleton warriors that have been broken into skeletons are almost piled up.

Even the lake has a lot of skeletons floating in it.

As for the three directions of east, west and south, the skeleton warriors and skeleton soldiers were mixed, and they had come to the bottom of the cliff. They were banging the rock formations in vain with the decaying weapons in their hands, knocking out tiny white marks.

But more than that, their rotten weapons shattered and shattered, leaving these skeletons standing dumbfounded.

They don't have siege weapons.

There is no climbing tool or the ability to go directly to the city wall!

Therefore, the main direction of these undead's attack, just when the skeleton soldiers fell in pieces, automatically shifted from the north side to the southeast sides.

Because on the southeast sides, there are exactly 5 meters wide and 20 meters long ramps connecting the city gate!

"coming."

Kant heard the rapid sound of hooves and already understood in his heart.

A desert robber who was a messenger came quickly, threw the reins in his hand, quickly turned over and dismounted, rushed up the stairs of the city wall to come to Kant, and Sushenghui reported: "Lord Lord, the enemy is attacked at the city gate. Focus on attacking!"

"understood."

Kant nodded calmly.

At the same time, he asked the desert robber next to him, "Which gate is Manid currently stationed at?"

"East Gate!" Someone answered immediately.

"Um."

Kant nodded and ordered: "Tell him, stick to the east gate."

"Yes!" The desert robber who answered nodded, turned and left.

Kant pondered slightly, then stepped forward, turned his head to Bandak and said, "Let's go to the South Gate."

"Understood." Bandak followed.

The current "Drehem" castle has only two passages, the south gate and the east gate. It can be said that it is the only point where the castle may be breached. Of course, it needs to be paid attention to.

However, there are differences between the two gates.

The interior of the city gate on the east side belongs to the military management area, and a group of reinforcements are stationed at any time.

Manid is in charge of that, and it can also make up for his weakness in commanding battles, so Kant asked him to just stick to it and not be broken through, and he also brought him the two pages of strange objects that can summon elemental giants beforehand.

The southern gate is different.

This city gate is a city gate for commercial and civilian access, so there are few troops stationed. It is necessary to arrange troops to garrison in advance. In an emergency, it is necessary to directly lead troops to reinforce.

Let Bandak go to guard the south gate, and Kant also intends to use his personal strength.

Bandak after all.

It is the strongest!

Even Kant is actually incomparable to this underworld apostle.

Whether it is individual combat power or summoning a squad of underworld invaders, they can block the intrusion of those undead, and may also create the illusion of poor defense, so that the extraordinary power of those undead will suffer a lifelong loss!

Quickly transfer to the South Gate.

On the city wall, archers are shooting recklessly with the help of towers and arrow towers.

At the same time, there was a violent beating sound at the city gate, and it seemed that there were countless people outside struggling to get in, but the fierce sound was also mixed with a strange crisp sound.

Kant squinted, of course he could hear the source of the crisp sound.

It was clearly the sound of bones breaking!

Quickly walk up to the city gate, follow the previously built platform to the gate of the Wengcheng City, and the ramp outside that is 5 meters wide and 20 meters long is already full of skeleton warriors.

They are holding rotten spears or swords in their hands and wearing rotten armor in the style of the ancient times.

It is crowded towards the city gate.

Those skeleton warriors who have already touched the city gate are using the weapons in their hands to knock heavily on the well-made and sturdy thick wooden door, including outside the wooden door, there is a layer of iron bars with the thickness of the thumb, and the iron grids are welded together. The door is the source of that sound.

It's just that this group of skeletons can't cause any damage to the city gate at all, and may only add a few traces. Their rotten weapons don't even knock on the iron gate, even if they knock on the Atsugi city gate!

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh-"

At the city gates, Swadian crossbowmen and Vykian archers are still shooting arrows.

The dark shadows fell like a torrential rain, and on the ramp, a lot of skeleton warriors fell down because of this. Almost every moment, an empty ramp appeared, and it was immediately filled by the skeleton warriors coming up from behind.

The bowmen stationed at the city gate and the urn are all elites.

Also includes 2 archmages who haven't been shot yet.

50 Vicia marksmen, although the rapid fire is not as good as the Ravenston Ranger, but the rapid fire at close range within 20 meters, every arrow hits the eyebrows of the skull, there is still no problem.

Coupled with the precise shooting of the Swadian crossbowmen, the scene was once very harmonious.

That's right.

It is very harmonious.

Every time the 50 Vician marksmen, plus the 30 Swadian crossbowmen, shot, the 20-meter ramp was emptied of the skeleton warriors in a short period of time.

Then in a short period of time, it was refilled by the group of skeleton warriors.

Repeatedly.

The scene is unusually harmonious.

Standing at the top of the gate of Wengcheng, Kant's face was calm, and his eyes were a little more relaxed.

As the piles of scattered bones fell down the ramp, the skeleton warriors were hit by precise arrows on the skull, and the danger of the city gate had not yet increased, but made him feel that he was still at ease.

Even Bandak looked relaxed and said with a smile, "It's very simple."

"yes."

Kant nodded in agreement: "Simple."

However, he still frowned, looking at the skeleton warriors who were still full of the outside world, filling the entire sentry oasis, the corners of his eyes twitched: "The number of these skeletons is estimated to be at least 40,000 people?"

"Well, maybe 50,000. You know, skeletons have no flesh and blood and take up a small footprint."

Bandak replied: "A lot anyway."

"Heh." Kant chuckled, but his eyes were a little more depressed: "Then if these skeletons focus on attacking a certain point of us, can they form a bridge of bones and rush directly to the city wall?"

"This...it's hard to say." Bandak's eyes narrowed slightly, and the red light flickered.

It is indeed possible.

Once the group of gnolls who had crossed the Naron desert and were almost exhausted by their fuel, were able to smash their boats and sink their boats. With such a reckless and reckless attack, they all rushed directly to the city wall, almost defeating Kant's original troops.

What's more, those skeleton warriors themselves have no concept of death.

It is laid as a wall composed of bones.

Really possible!

Although it is 20 meters, it seems that it is not so difficult to fill a city wall from low to high to form a slope, considering the physique of the already mighty, nearly 50,000 skeleton warriors and skeleton soldiers!

And there may be more undead spirits in the death sky behind!
