PFC Chapter 1377: Surprise and embarrassment
Chapter 1377: Surprise and embarrassment
Two moons hung high in the pitch-black night sky. Before the pale moonlight could spread to the earth, it was covered by the deadly magical light exploding everywhere, making it almost difficult for people to open their eyes.
In the Wangying Canyon, the roaring sounds of magic artillery fire and the sharp sounds of arrows breaking through the air from our siege troops were still echoing back and forth in the sky.
However, everything seemed futile in the face of the absolute defense barrier of the Tauren and Troll armies that flashed with dark and eerie light.
"What a bunch of complete trash."
There was a hint of mockery on Silik's rough face, and he looked contented.
I saw that the absolute defense barrier above his head was still indestructible, and the troll soldiers around him were even more unscrupulous. Under the protection of the barrier, they frantically launched a counterattack against our friendly soldiers who were besieging them.
Our friendly soldiers were located on all sides of the canyon. Due to the complex terrain, many soldiers on the edge were not under the protection of the absolute defense barrier, so the enemy's unscrupulous counterattack caused a lot of casualties to the friendly soldiers.
"Chief, if we continue at this pace, the slaughter we are waiting for will be just around the corner!"
The skinny troll general with a pointed face and monkey cheeks grinned and flattered, "Even without the lich's reinforcements, we can easily wipe out this bunch of trash, as well as the ant-humans who overestimate their own capabilities!"
"You're right, the leader is the key to victory in this battle!"
The burly troll general was not to be outdone, and quickly echoed: "With the leader's guidance, we will be invincible! Until we completely flatten the human territory!"
"It is ridiculous that a mere human race wants to show off in front of this leader. The human emperor and the human army are all worthless trash. If they meet this leader, I will devour them completely."
Listening to the flattery of the two lackeys, Silik seemed to be extremely pleased and began to laugh wildly without restraint.
While laughing wildly, Shirik knew clearly in his heart that if he wanted to completely wipe out the surrounding siege troops, he could only join forces with the Lich's undead army to achieve this.
"It's about time. Facing a lich army of 50 undead legions, the human race's favored land should be completely destroyed, right? With so many new materials full of fear and unwillingness, it seems that the lich's reinforcements will be more than 50 legions."
Just as Xirik was thinking of this with a joking look on his face, a large army without any light and filled with hostility had already appeared not far from the canyon, and was rushing towards here rapidly, like a group of moving shadows.
"Chief, there is no mistake about this strong evil aura. It is the Lich's undead army that has arrived! It seems that they have already razed the divinely favored land of the human race!"
The skinny troll general's eyes lit up, and he rubbed his hands with murderous intent and said, "It's time to start a feast of killing!"
"Is it finally here?"
There was murderous intent on Shirik's rough blue face. A fatal smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. He began to command the huge army to move towards the enemy.
As the hostile army approached, Jerric and the troll generals who were trying to join them soon discovered something unexpected.
This army did not attack the besieging Dragonborn legions, nor was it attacked by the latter. Instead, it rushed straight towards the troll camp at an incredibly fast speed!
"Chief, there's something strange, that army seems to be coming for us!"
The burly troll general was stunned for a moment, then blurted out.
"That's right, Chief. The area surrounding that army is filled with a very strong aura of hostility, but not the deathly aura of the Undead Army!"
The skinny troll general also reacted quickly, looking somewhat at a loss.
"Stop moving forward, that's not the Lich's undead army!"
While being surprised, Xilike decisively issued an order: "Concentrate all firepower on this sudden army!"
However, even though Jerric responded immediately and the troll generals quickly began to execute their orders, the canyon was crowded with hundreds of thousands of troll and tauren allied forces, and the terrain was relatively narrow, so ordinary soldiers could not react quickly, let alone attack the front.
Especially the Tauren following the trolls, they had no idea what was going on. While they were stunned, many troll soldiers who hurriedly stopped bumped into the Tauren soldiers. Many even started pushing each other, causing the entire army to become chaotic in an instant.
"You are a bunch of losers! Concentrate your firepower and attack the unknown force ahead!"
Noticing that the army's movement was hindered, just as Jirik was shouting in anger, the unknown force was already within reach.
Under the pale moonlight, the pupils of Shirik and a group of troll generals shrank, and they finally saw the person coming.
Tall pointed ears, pale and dark face filled with hostility, and a pair of scarlet eyes flashing deadly light under the moonlight.
"Are they actually a group of dark elves?"
Rick's blue face was full of surprise and he could hardly believe his eyes.
You know, even though the strength of the dark elves has declined in the past thousand years, they are still a powerful existence far beyond ordinary second-rate forces, not to mention facing a third-rate force like the trolls, which are simply not in the same dimension!
"Chief, those are not ordinary dark elves. Look at their armor, it's all tattered and their weapons are dull!"
The burly troll general's eyes revealed a trace of fear, and he said in disbelief: "They look like they just crawled out of a slumbering place!"
"This leader has also discovered who they are and why they are here?!"
A trace of panic finally emerged on Xilike's calm face, but it soon turned gloomy again. He said coldly with contempt, "So what? Although the opponent's momentum is extremely amazing and obviously stronger than the ordinary fourth-level legion, it can be called the fourth-level elite, and it is even enough to compete with two or even three ordinary fourth-level legions, but it seems that there are only one legion of soldiers."
"Listen carefully, leader. As long as they can't break our absolute defense barrier, they will still pose no threat!"
After hearing what Xirik said, the troll generals showed ferocious and disdainful expressions again, and echoed: "That's right, so many besieging forces can't break our absolute defense barrier, and the leader is surrounded by powerful people. What can this legion of dark elves do..."
But before the trolls could finish their words, the sharp blade in the hand of the dark general leading the opposite side suddenly glowed bright red, and immediately turned into a black shadow, flying towards them at a high speed.
He was none other than the former dark elf demigod Jace. Around Jace, other dark elf soldiers also made the same attacking moves and rushed towards the troll camp together.
In the blink of an eye, with Jace taking the lead, thousands of dark elf soldiers rushed over, waving various weapons in their hands and smashing the troll absolute defense barrier in front of them.
boom! boom! boom!
The violent waves caused by the energy impact immediately rose and fell on the black glowing barrier wall, and the momentum was truly shocking.
But even though the offensive of Jace and others was extremely impressive, they still did not cause any cracks in the absolute defense barrier.
"I thought he was very capable, but it seems he is just bluffing!"
With a disdainful sneer, Shirik was about to command the surrounding trolls to fight back, but the panicked voice of the burly troll general beside him soon rang out.
"Leader, something is wrong. It seems that they are not attacking just the barrier wall, but the necromancy secrets that the lich has given us to greatly enhance the barrier!"
Hearing the voice, Shirik's face suddenly stiffened and he looked towards the wall of the barrier.
As expected, the extremely dense black gas was rapidly dissipating on the barrier wall, and even the barrier crystal that served as the core nearby began to tremble inexplicably.
All signs do indicate that the influence of the necromancy is declining sharply.
"How could this happen? The secret art of necromancy is inside the absolute defense barrier, how on earth did they attack it?"
Xilike opened his cloudy eyes wide, sweating all over his body, and said hysterically: "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"
"Leader, they are not attacking the Undead Mystic Technique itself, but are blocking the Undead Mystic Technique from receiving the death energy!"
A troll shaman finally reacted and blurted out in panic.
Even as he was speaking, the dark light on the barrier wall had become extremely thin, causing cracks to quickly appear on the barrier wall one after another. After all, our attacks in other locations had not stopped.
Before Xirik could react, a crisp and loud sound of glass breaking was heard, and the barrier wall covering the heads of the troll and tauren alliance army collapsed instantly.
No one could absolutely defend against the protection of the barrier. The magical artillery fire and arrows of our besieging army fell into the enemy's camp one after another, setting off waves of blood and rain. The power of the magic explosion reflected the distorted and frightened blue and cow faces, and wailing and screams echoed in the canyon.
"Break out and kill these weird dark elves. As long as we join forces with the undead army, victory will be ours!"
The frustrated Jerrick roared, and decided to fight to the bitter end. He raised his giant axe and led a group of troll generals and guards to attack Jace.
I saw a group of powerful trolls baring their fangs and shouting, and the energy gusts they raised were overwhelming and the momentum was quite astonishing.
"How can a mob like you shake us in the slightest?"
Jace snorted coldly, and the sharp blade in his hand turned into hundreds of flames, rushing towards Xirik.
For a moment, the sword lights of the dark elves collided with the axe lights of the trolls, and the two torrents of steel intertwined fiercely, causing the entire battlefield to suddenly become turbulent, and the hysterical shouts and the roar of energy collision resounded through the world.
Especially the leaders, Jerrick and Jace, who were confronting each other diametrically. The sharp cold light of the giant axes and broadswords intertwined and distorted the surrounding space.
Xirik's strength is at level six, four stars, which is already extremely powerful. Even so, Jace completely suppressed the former after a few rounds of fighting.
You know, Jace was a genuine demigod back then, mastering sword skills that ordinary people could hardly achieve.
And because the containers are gathered together, Jace's own energy is extremely abundant. He can even mobilize the energy of other ancient dark elf warriors nearby. In addition, his current strength is at the sixth level and five stars, so he is extremely at ease.
In other words, due to the connection of the containers, these ancient dark elf warriors are already one body in a sense, which is evident from this.
"You are incompetent. You are not qualified to fight me."
On the bloody battlefield, the broadsword in Jace's hand seemed to possess tremendous power, instantly changing into thousands of trajectories and slashing fiercely at the increasingly embarrassed Slick.
boom!
After a loud and earth-shattering noise, I saw Xirik clenching his teeth and barely swinging the giant axe to block it.
"You bastard, don't think you can just..."
Before the embarrassed Sirik could finish his words, Jace's extremely sharp slash cut through the night sky and came again like an overwhelming force.
This time, Shirik obviously had no time to react. The sharp sword energy immediately shattered the energy barrier around him, and his burly body flew backwards like a rag bag.
"Well……"
By the time Xilike, whose rough blue face had turned much paler, managed to stand up, his breath was already in an extremely weak state, and it was obvious that he had suffered a serious injury.
The sharp blade in the hand of expressionless Jace flashed and shot towards him again.
After seeing this scene, the frightened Jerrik no longer had the arrogance to continue the fight. He turned around and fled to the rear of the troll camp.
Seeing this, Jace did not pursue deep into the enemy camp, but returned to the front line and began to eliminate other powerful trolls.
After all, Lei Xiao only gave Jace one task, which was to stop the other party from joining the undead army.
Under Jayce's command, those troll generals who had been fawning on him not long ago soon died screaming one after another. After losing their main commander, the troll army that attempted to break out began to retreat in a hurry, completely losing the courage to move forward.
This is no wonder. The dark elf army led by Jace is composed entirely of ancient dark elf soldiers stationed in the mine. Their combat power is undoubtedly the strongest among the ancient dark elves.
Just as Xirik predicted, the ratio of fifth-level and sixth-level warriors in this fourth-level ancient dark elf legion is obviously higher than that of an ordinary fourth-level legion. It can be called a fourth-level elite legion. Coupled with the effect of the container, these ancient dark elves can communicate only by relying on thoughts, and the combat power that can be exerted is undoubtedly greater.
With such a powerful fourth-level elite army blocking the front, and the never-ending siege of magical artillery and arrows from the rear, it is not surprising that the enemy army was defeated.
As the troll army in the front was defeated, the tauren in the back were in chaos and could only passively carry out futile defense, looking extremely embarrassed.
Just as the situation in Wangying Canyon was turbulent, the battle situation in Bingshi City also underwent new changes.
