Chapter 827 Reinforcement
The amber ball inlaid on the top of the "Giant Worm Wand" suddenly lit up, releasing three rays of golden light one after another.
The swarm of bees irradiated by the magic radiance immediately mutated, and in a short while, a total of thirty-three wasps were affected by the magic, and they expanded rapidly into giant bees that were a circle larger than the adult Pelidon.
Joan had tested the fighting power of the giant bees, and if they were to fight Peridon one-on-one, it would be courting death.
On the contrary, if you just send this group of giant bees to harass and contain Peridon, sacrifice themselves when necessary, and serve as human shields for Arnold and others, the giant bees are fully capable of this kind of "cannon fodder" role.
Qiao An didn't have to be reluctant to send giant bees to die, anyway, they only had a lifespan of eleven minutes, so they were born to be cannon fodder.
Thirty-three giant bees obeyed Joan's command and gathered into yellow and black clouds in the night sky, accompanied by ear-piercing buzzing and roaring, and flew mightily towards the battle zone.
Arnold and the others first heard a strange buzzing sound behind them, and when they hurriedly turned their heads, they saw a group of huge wasps flying in the night sky, and they all broke out in a cold sweat!
There was a large group of Peridon diving in turn in front of them, and there were many giant bees flying behind them. Wouldn't they even be blocked from retreating? What should I do?
While secretly crying, Angel received a spiritual message from Joan, and learned that the swarm of giant bees were the helpers summoned by Joan's spell, and they were specially sent to reinforce them. The news was passed on to Arnold, Lowry and Ryan.
The number of giant bees and Peridon is about the same. Although they are not their opponents in a one-on-one fight, it is still possible to last for a few minutes.
With the buffer of these few minutes, Arnold's team got a precious respite, quickly cast spells to heal their injuries, replaced the clips, and with the rifle and "fireball wand" in their hands, they launched a fierce round to the group of Peridons in the air who were entangled by giant bees. counterattack.
At the same time, Angel conveyed Joan's suggestion to his companions:
"Don't worry about accidentally injuring the giant bee. These summoned creatures are just consumables. If they can be buried with Pelidon, they will not die in vain."
With Joan's explanation, Arnold and the others had no scruples in their actions. The bullets and fireballs blasting into the night sky occasionally accidentally injured the giant bee, but the blow to Peridon was undoubtedly heavier.
The fierce battle lasted only five minutes. With the assistance of the swarm, Arnold, Lowry, Angel, and Ryan frantically attacked the Peridons in the night sky, killing or seriously injuring no less than 20 of them.
As the death toll of the Peridon clan rose sharply, the balance of battle began to tip in favor of humanity.
Arnold was able to kill, and wanted to continue fighting, but learned a piece of news from Angor and Ryan that greatly disappointed him.
The "fireball wands" of the two mages had run out of energy, and there were not many spell slots left. The frequent casting of spells overdrawn too much energy, which made them feel exhausted physically and mentally, so they had to suspend the battle and sit down to take a breather.
"Pelidon was led out of the lair by us, and most of them were wiped out. We have bought a lot of time for Audrey, Hyrule, and Holden. It's time to retreat to the 'Refuge Cabin' to take a rest." Lowry said wearily.
He, too, was exhausted, his chain mail was stained with blood, and he desperately needed rest and healing.
Seeing that his companions couldn't hold on any longer, Arnold nodded and agreed to retreat.
Joan sensed that Angor was about to retreat, so he ordered the remaining giant bees in the air to entangle Peridon at all costs and cover the retreat of Arnold's team.
Five minutes later, Arnold and his party of four retreated to the "shelter hut" without any danger.
Angel and Ryan collapsed on the ground as soon as they entered the room, panting heavily from exhaustion, and didn't bother to say a word.
Arnold is physically strong, coupled with armor protection, after a fierce battle, his physical fitness and health are much better than the two thin mages.
After entering the "refuge hut", he was not in a hurry to rest. He first came to say hello to Joan and asked about the situation of the second group.
At this time, Audrey, Hyrule, and Holden had wiped out the Pelidon cubs and beast eggs in the middle of the nest, and were heading towards the deepest part of the nest.
Through Holden's perspective and the third observation point set in advance with the "Eagle Eye Technique", Joan has a clear understanding of the dynamics of the second group.
After hearing his introduction, Arnold felt relieved when he learned that Audrey's party was going well. He sat on the ground and planned to use "qi therapy" to heal his injuries.
At this time, Lowry was the last one to walk into the "refuge hut", threw the heavy magic crystal rifle at his feet, wiped off his sweat, and strode to the center of Arnold, Angel, and Ryan, stopped, and left A string of silver chains with holy emblems was pulled out from around his neck.
Joan heard the sound of metal colliding, turned around, and looked at Lori curiously.
Mr. Pastor wrapped the silver chain around his wrist, held up the holy emblem, and chanted prayers in praise of the "Queen of Karma", and finally ended with "All glory to our Lord Timothy" as usual.
Lowry's prayer seemed to have touched the goddess he worshiped, and a holy radiance containing pure positive energy was released from the silver holy emblem in his palm, and quickly spread around, filling the entire "shelter hut" in an instant.
Arnold, Angel, Ryan, and Lowry themselves bathed in the holy light, and the wounds all over their bodies quickly stopped bleeding and healed, and the pain was greatly relieved.
Joan's body is very healthy, but under the positive energy guided by Lowry, he still feels that he has also been injected with a vigorous vitality, and his physical and energy have increased.
With Lowry's priest level, every time he "channels positive energy", it can bring 4 energy levels of healing effect to the surrounding companions, and guiding two shots of positive energy in succession is enough to heal the wounds of Arnold, Angel, and Ryan.
After that, Lowry performed the "Secondary Restoration Technique" one after another to help his companions dispel the fatigue accumulated due to long-term and high-intensity battles and quickly recover their energy.
Joan looked at Arnold and the others from the sidelines. From being exhausted and bloody when he fled back to the hut, to now after receiving the magic treatment, in just two or three minutes, he swept away his depression and became Energetic, can not help but secretly sigh.
Having a reliable pastor on the team makes all the difference.
How long the combat power of the entire team can last depends mainly on the priest's healing level.
Compared with priests, mages are more explosive on the battlefield, but their battery life is obviously weak. Once the spell slots are exhausted, even if the body is still healthy and energetic, it is useless.
Angor and Ryan were obviously aware of this problem long ago, and carried a lot of combat equipment with them.
Although the most lethal "fireball wand" has run out of energy, fortunately they each have a spare "lightning wand", which is full of 10 powerful "lightning beams".
In addition, there are many spell scrolls in Angel and Ryan's storage bags, which are enough to support subsequent battles.
