Chapter 18 War of Attrition! 【Ask Monthly Ticket】

Although Sauron has a huge power.

However, within the scope of Modo City, there are not many troops that can be mobilized.

Because even if the population of the entire Modo Island is added together, it is only four to five million people. The proportion of the army in Modo City is about one-tenth. There are about 30,000 regular troops in the inner city, and 5,000 defenders in the port area. The rest are fleets at most occasionally resting on Modo Island. There are a large number of militia units. This number is relatively large, estimated to reach 60,000 to 70,000, but the combat effectiveness of the militia is too low. A militia can only deal with one or two skeletons at most. When facing the real abyss army, it can basically be ignored. Human heads were massacred.

Calculated in this way, Sauron can actually concentrate very few troops in a short period of time.

The city defense army can rush over about 20,000 people one after another, and there are about two to three thousand people from the church, witches, and professionals. The core main force is still the Arcane Tower and the Golem Legion.

It is impossible for Sauron to give up the outer towns and defend Modo City, because the twelve outer towns have at least a population of about 100,000. If they are abandoned and let the army of undead slaughter them, not only will Sauron's strength be greatly reduced, but also his prestige and faith will be greatly reduced. Will shake instantly.

So in this case, Sauron can only fight head-on.

And you can't do without a fight!

When Orcas' undead army assembled and launched an attack, all the troops that Sauron could mobilize in a short period of time were also concentrated in the plain.

The strength of Modo City is about 36,000.

Orcus's army numbered between 200,000 and 300,000.

The nearly ten times difference in strength gave people great pressure, but the fighters in Modo City did not flinch in the slightest, and even their morale did not waver in the slightest.

for the true God was with them.

The top combat power of Modo City is gathered together, there is an arcane tower in the sky, the field of myths has also been activated, and the mighty golems and puppets have formed a defense line. These powerful constructs are not the slightest even in the face of demons. disadvantage. Especially the large-scale Iron Golem Legion, their frontal combat power is enough to harden all bloody battle legions.

Whoooo!

A dull horn sounded.

Countless cowards were driven to charge forward, and Orcus still used the old routine of the bottomless abyss, that is, a large amount of cannon fodder to consume the enemy's new force.

Among the nearly 300,000 Abyss Legion, the number of low-level demons has reached about 50,000, and then there are about 100,000 low-level undead. These are all cannon fodder that can be consumed at will. . The elite demon legion was surrounded by ten times more low-level demons more than once and wasted to death inside.

"Shield Array!"

The dull roar of the drow elf officer sounded, and immediately within the defense line of Modo City, groups of warriors in full body armor and holding metal giant shields came out.

There are also quite a few gray dwarves among them. They are short in size but hold giant shields that are taller and heavier than themselves, as if they don't care at all. These gray dwarves are specially trained shield warriors. Enchanted shields and one-handed war hammers, as the strongest defensive force of the legion, resist the first-line attack.

Boom boom boom!

The dull sound of gunfire sounded.

The portal at the rear mobilized a group of artillery in an emergency, and at the same time, there was also long-range artillery support from warships from the direction of the inland river.

But these are not the key to decide the outcome of the battle. Under the command of Goliath, the Witch Group jointly cast spells, and dense fireballs descend from the sky, blooming directly on the map within a radius of 100 meters. Each cast will take away thousands of demon cannon fodder .

Nearly more than 100,000 cannon fodder gradually approached, and quickly fell to the ground in the process of advancing.

In just five or six rounds of attacks, 30,000 to 50,000 low-level demons and low-level undead have been wiped out, and Orcas behind him couldn't help but frown.

The organizational ability and probability of the Modo City army were completely beyond his imagination, giving him a feeling of fighting against the devil's army. Because in the bloody battle, the elite devils also ignored such a huge number and efficiently removed batch after batch of demon cannon fodder.

The trial of Sauron's Battle Banner has begun to take effect.

The main target of the trial is the demon, and most of the officers in Modo City have entered it, so when they really faced the demon army, they did not panic at all.

If the officer does not panic, the soldiers below will not panic. All orders are carried out in an orderly manner, and the enemy is rapidly reduced under the attack.

"The clay golem is in combat!"

The clay golems that occupy the largest proportion of Modo City began to step forward, and nearly 6,000 clay golems mixed with stone golems formed the first line of defense.

When the mighty 70,000 to 80,000 undead cannon fodder approached, the clay golem did not change at all, and the strength value as high as 25 points directly formed a crush on the enemy. The demon was smashed to pieces without hesitation, and the specialty of [Defense in Attack] was originally for defense and counterattack, and its effect against cannon fodder was amazing.

and!

The most important point is that although the clay golem has the lowest combat power among golems, it has a very powerful ability.

They have damage immunity of around 10 points, and are good against sharp objects, and can gradually recover their damage during the battle. Modo City did not make large and giant clay golems, which made them unable to fight against high-level existence, but it was enough to crush these cannon fodder with numbers.

Batches of demonic cannon fodder fell down.

Coward was the first to be unable to bear it, and began to collapse rapidly, and even the demon warlord could not stop it.

There were 30,000 to 50,000 demon corpses left at the forefront of the battle, but the total number of destroyed clay golems was only one or two hundred. Skeletons and zombies were basically useless, especially when facing stone golems. Defend.

—— "Earthquake!"

The ground began to shake violently.

A small group of necromancers approached quietly under the leadership of the Lich, and then launched a large-scale earthquake spell, and then many clay golems began to crack. This spell dealt a lot of damage to the clay golems. But they had so many opportunities. The moment they approached the battlefield and finished casting their spells, these people were completely exposed, and the dark blade assassins blessed by Sauron quickly eliminated them.

The battlefield has entered a war of attrition.

The army of Modo City was on standby at the rear, and the clay golems began to fight off the cannon fodder in front of them. Almost every time a clay golem was destroyed, the undead would have to pay a hundred times the price.

The base cost of a clay golem is over 3,600 gp.

If it is on the market, the price is about 15,000 gold coins. (requires casting a spell to activate)

Sauron didn't feel distressed at all at the moment. He just watched the clay golem fight with the abyss cannon fodder in front of him without blinking. The main force basically stopped attacking. Sauron used nearly a thousand The 800 clay golems wiped out the enemy's nearly 100,000 undead cannon fodder.

In his heart, he has long been prepared to use Kindler to smash the devil's war of attrition.
