Chapter 1391: All Things Wither
"Buzz~~~"
In the front row, a Withered Knight slowly raised his spear, blood-red air swirled around the rusty spear, and a pair of decayed eyes looked towards the direction of Dragon City, roaring in a low voice like a demon from purgatory: "Kill! Use your spears to pierce their bodies, let your iron hooves crush their hopes, and let these ignorant humans feel the fear of despair!"
As he said, he rushed out first, and behind him, countless Withered Knights sped up like a tide. In a blink of an eye, the sound of horses' hooves seemed to shatter the entire Snowy Tianchi. A whole group of black Withered Knights swept towards the player phalanx under Dragon City like a dark torrent. The deafening sound of horses' hooves tore through the cold wind of the snowy area and trampled on them!
…
“Defend!”
On the dragon’s back, I raised the flame of light high, pointed it at the withering knight in the distance, and growled: “The front row should keep the shield formation intact, the back row should output control, and the wandering immortal doctor should keep up with the treatment. No matter how strong the withering knight is, we will definitely be able to hold the position!”
“Yes, boss!”
A group of people drew out their swords and spears in unison, and stabbed out from the gaps in the shields. The front row of cavalry warriors sank their bodies and pressed their center of gravity as much as possible. The back row players also held their breath one by one, looking solemnly at the cavalry charging in the distance.
The two sides are getting closer and closer!
"Spiral Burst Arrows, throw!"
Qing Yan whistled and shot the first spiral burst arrows. In the back row, a whole group of spiral burst arrows were shot out, "bang bang bang" falling on the crowd of Withered Knights. Half of them hit, and about 30% of the hits did not miss. As a result, about 25% of the Withered Knights in the first wave were stunned. The knights in front and behind collided madly, and people and horses turned over in a moment. However, more Withered Knights rushed over without any hindrance, facing the immobilization tactics of the talisman master and the storm of the gods of the mage, raising their blood-red spears and blasting straight at the player square!
"Boom boom boom--"
There were loud noises one after another, and the defense line of the Beichen Iron Cavalry was visibly retreating in the rounds of collisions. Linji gritted his teeth and said, "Wind Stab, keep controlling them!"
For a moment, the sound of sharp blades breaking through the wind continued, and wind thorns pierced the bodies of the Withering Knights, with a higher hit rate. Groups of Withering Knights could not move, and the firepower in the back row kept up. Skills such as rain of fire, ice storm, and wind blade continued to wreak havoc in the monster group, but the attacks of the Withering Knights could not be ignored. They raised their spears and stabbed wildly, and the scene of falling leaves flying around them was "buzzing". It was the skill of Withering All Things. Even I, who was diving and attacking, was stained with a few fallen leaves.
"Drop!"
Battle Tips: Please note that you have been hit by the [Withering All Things] effect, and all attributes are reduced by 20% for 25 seconds. This effect cannot be dispelled or purified!
Not good, there is an effect of weakening all attributes!
I quickly flipped the Fire of Light. I don't care if you weaken it or not. My attack power is enough anyway. I burst out with Stab + Chasing Moon Slash + Thunder Slash, and immediately triggered the Slashing special effect. "Chi" a ray of indigo sword energy penetrated the monster group, picked up more than a dozen Wither Knights, and killed them in mid-air. Experience points, merit points and points soared!
But the other players were not so lucky. On the front line, Storm Spirit, Li Qingye and others were all hit by the Withering of All Things, and all attributes were weakened. With the roar of the Withering Knight, the Storm Stab broke out in the crowd, "Puff Puff Puff" pierced through the shield wall of the Knight players, stirring up dense damage numbers in the crowd. That's not all. Several Withering Knights with less than half blood raised their hands together, muttering something. The next second, several consecutive golden lights fell from the sky and fell on several Beichen Iron Cavalry with residual blood, reflecting a series of terrifying damage numbers!
"677171!"
"700992!"
"698723!"
...
Instantly, four half-blood Beichen Iron Cavalrymen fell to the ground, killed by the Knight's Mantra of the Withering Knight. This monster actually has a long-range attack!
"Not good!"
Su Xiran gritted his teeth, while healing, he said in a tender voice: "Did you see, when a player's health is less than 50%, it will trigger these Withering Knights to launch the Knight's Mantra effect. How can this be? All the wandering immortal doctors use group healing skills to keep everyone's health bar above 50%, hurry!"
But it's easier said than done.
The attack power of the Withering Knight is there. Even players of the level of Linji and Huangxi are struggling with the Storm Stab. Other cavalry systems that have been hit by the Withering of All Things are even more difficult to resist. Therefore, the front line has become a situation of both sides coming and going. Withering Knights are constantly buried under our spells, arrows, and muskets, but our players are constantly killed by the opponent's Storm Stab and Knight's Mantra. White light rises and falls, just as I expected before. Even if we can withstand this wave of Withering Knight's attack, we will definitely pay a very heavy price!
Besides, we may not be able to resist it.
In front, the Withering Knights are getting more and more dense, madly crushing the front position defended by Beichen. The location we chose is right in the center of the battlefield, so naturally we are under the greatest pressure. The golden light of the Knight's Mantra on the front line keeps flashing, and every flash can almost take away a player's level 1. This battle is too tragic.
"Hu~~~"
Take a deep breath, I stopped attacking in the sky, and suddenly activated the mount mark. The Fire Glass Dragon immediately turned into a Fire Dragon mark and appeared under my feet. Holding the Fire of Light in my hand, I landed with a "bang" and rushed out to meet a group of Withered Knights. The sword light danced wildly, and every time I swung the sword, a sword light dozens of yards long swept through the monster group, achieving twice the result with half the effort. I quickly triggered the Pick and Slash skill, and then began an infinite Pick and Slash killing journey, doing my best to reduce the pressure on the guild.
At this moment, at the end of the Snowy Heavenly Lake, a beam of light burst out with a "boom", so bright that people couldn't open their eyes, and the earth was buzzing and trembling. The shock wave swept over a few seconds later, blowing me and a group of withered knights to raise our arms to resist. In the strong light, a huge knight drove a warhorse surrounded by flames, full of indomitable momentum, looking at the army of withered knights with a misty gaze, and shouted in a low voice: "A group of useless maggots, can't even defeat these rabble? What's the use of you? Immediately attack me with all your strength, otherwise, you will all become sacrifices to the god of death! Go and kill, warriors of the demon world!"
"Yes, my king!"
A group of withered knights bowed their heads together, and then, wisps of blood-red light rose from their bodies——
"Ding!"
System prompt: Please note that [Withered Knight·Demon Shadow] has activated the skill [Eternal Hymn], gaining a +15% effect bonus to all attributes!
…
The Eternal Hymn is actually a buff effect.
I frowned and said in the guild channel: "No matter if it's a hymn or not, kill them. Don't let the Withering Knight get close to the Dragon City. Keep going!"
"Yeah!"
A group of people nodded in unison and fought with the Withering Knight again.
I shuttled back and forth among the monsters. Under the effect of the mount mark, my body was extremely flexible. The ever-changing Z-shaped movements almost avoided more than 95% of the storm stabs, and the Fire of Light stirred up the holy light of demon exorcism, constantly erupting with special effects such as dance, war whirlwind, and pick-slash. Almost a whole group of Withering Knights fell under the sword of the Fire of Light. I even felt that my output was equivalent to the output of half of Beichen's Sixth Legion!
In the distance, the Ancient Sword, Heaven War Alliance, Tang Sect, Scarlet Moon Knights, Heroes Hall and other guilds were also caught in a fierce battle. Almost no one spoke. Everyone was busy fighting. Even the most noisy Flame Rat remained silent. He just kept releasing large-scale AoE skills such as Storm of the Gods and Blizzard behind the crowd, and then watched the front row of the Tyrant Alliance being killed like wheat. His face became more and more ugly. He should have felt that the difficulty of this version of the task was too high, at least the difficulty of the three-star awakening task, so that the average strength of the Tyrant Alliance Guild could not handle it at all, and suffered heavy losses!
…
Time flew by bit by bit. After about an hour and twenty minutes, countless withered knights turned into corpses and experience points in front of the array, and the positions of the players outside the city seemed to be combed by a comb. It was almost barren. The major guilds had serious casualties, and at least 80% of the players were consumed overall. The original 200-yard depth position has now shrunk to 40 yards.
However, there are still many withering knights, who continue to attack the player's position.
At this time, Qin Zhao's voice came from the city: "Draw the bow, prepare to shoot, and release!"
The next second, the sound of dense arrows coming off the string came, and then the dense arrows in the sky fell on the group of withering knights in front of our position, and burst out more than 100w damage numbers. Obviously, it was the volley effect of the Thunder Army. After hard training, the Thunder Army has almost become the trump card of the Xia army. They are first-class cavalry on horseback, first-class archers with bows, and first-class infantry on horseback. At this time, they are in the city, judging the distance, and began to launch projectile attacks outside the city, with full force!
The attack close to the city, obviously we are the side with the advantage.
On the city wall, Feng Yu, holding a long sword, rode on the Ice Wind Frost Dragon, frowned and said: "What are you waiting for? The distance is just right, the artillery is covered, it's time to reinforce the adventurer army below the city!"
"Yes, sir!"
For a moment, the densely packed cannons on the city wall sounded one after another, and the sound of "bang bang bang" was endless. The next second, the crowd of withering knights outside the city burst into flowers. The bombardment of the cannons was extremely fierce, and the withering knights had more than enough attack but less defense. Unlike the mountain beasts and cyclops who had extremely strong stone skin, they would also be blown to pieces by being hit by several shells at the same time!
