Chapter 354: Fierce Fight at Night

Richard discussed with everyone for a while and decided to rely on the original magic circle of this ruins to consume some of the power of the undead, and then wait until dark to fight the undead.

In order to ensure that everything is foolproof, Richard ordered the Lion Cavalry to send a message to the rear, and mobilize the 7th, 12th, and 21st Infantry Battalions from the Losa Basin, plus the Cavalry Reconnaissance Battalion to rush to the ruins for reinforcement.

The Undead Ruins are located to the west of the salt lake in the Losa Basin, not far from Loth and Sam Castle. If the soldiers move faster, they can rush to reinforce in the second half of the night.

Harland has more than 13,000 garrisons in the Losa Basin, and the number of regular troops has exceeded 10,000, but more than half are stationed in the Hurricane Canyon at the northern entrance of the basin. Richard's transfer order has drained the regular troops inside the Losa Basin.

Now the only troops left in the two castles of Losa Basin are the security army and the city defense army. These two armies are still unable to march in the middle of the night in winter, let alone fight against the terrible undead creatures.

The flying speed of the lion is extremely fast. It flew over 30 kilometers in an hour and delivered the order to the garrison.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, the garrisons in the two castles hurriedly ate some dinner, sorted out their equipment and began to reinforce the west of the salt lake.

Because the battle site is close to the castle, there is no need to carry bedding and tents, and the load can be reduced by more than half.

The army that can march in the snowy night in the dark night of winter in the northern border must be well organized and have extraordinary combat effectiveness.

The seventh and twelfth infantry battalions are old troops led by Harland. They have been formed for many years. Although the reconnaissance cavalry battalion has been expanded, it is the backbone of the territory's elite soldiers. The soldiers of the guard squadron are also carefully selected. The combat effectiveness of these armies has been tested in actual combat for many years.

Only the 21st Infantry Battalion was a newly formed unit, which had been in existence for less than two years. Although many veterans were transferred from the army, they were a little timid when they heard that they had to fight against the terrible undead creatures. However, the military order was as strong as a mountain. Even if they were very scared, they could only follow the large army to fight.

Just as the reinforcements set out, the sky gradually became dark, and the power of the magic circle began to weaken.

As the power of the ruins magic circle weakened, some undead began to break through the blockade of the ancient magic circle.

In the dark night, a large amount of gray-white fog suddenly emerged, and the concentration of negative energy began to increase significantly. Soon, as more and more undead creatures appeared, a special area of ​​death began to appear.

Soon, a group of white skeletons stumbled out of the gray fog.

These white skeletons wore tattered clothes that were very different from those of the Grant Kingdom. It seemed that the clothes were somewhat similar to those of the O'Flan Army in ancient times.

Oulan is a famous wizard country in the ancient wizard era. There is a great sage in this wizard country who has mastered the power of rules. In the Dawn Plane, this powerful wizard who has mastered the power of rules can be compared with gods.

The territory controlled by the Kingdom of Oulan is very extensive, equivalent to half of the area of ​​the Central Continent, and the core territory is located on the east coast of the Central Continent.

The lich who wanted to seize and control Richard came from Oulan. Because he has mastered some of the memories of the legendary lich, Richard also has some understanding of the customs and folkways of the Oulan area.

The appearance of the skeleton is just the beginning. Behind the skeleton, the figures of dozens of death knights are looming. In this army of undead, there are some liches hidden in the team. Richard can even see some ghosts, making sharp whistles, as if they are about to pounce at any time, tearing the living and sucking the soul dry.

Above the undead army, hundreds of vampires flapped their wings. In the center of the vampires, there was a huge bone dragon. A large ball of green flames ignited in the eyes of the bone dragon. A powerful soul wave swept around, and the dragon power it emitted was so frightening that it made people tremble.

Based on the soul wave released by the bone dragon, Richard knew that this bone dragon was already a legendary first-level.

The vicinity of the undead army was filled with the smell of death and decay, as if forming a special domain, which was incompatible with the vitality of the dawn plane.

This undead army seemed to be afraid of the crystal coffin at the entrance of the cave. When they rushed out, they bypassed the crystal coffin at the entrance of the cave. In particular, the bone dragon was very large, and it felt funny when it rushed out of the light curtain.

Negative energy continued to emerge from the undead, forming a thick gray fog, which wrapped the undead lord inside.

This special area wrapped in a large area of ​​gray-white fog can not only block the line of sight, but also isolate some low-level magic mental power detection.

"Everyone be careful, there may be danger in the thick fog. People with lower professional levels should line up in formation, and the warriors should protect the safety of the magicians."

Richard reminded everyone loudly, his eyes fixed on the gray fog.

As the gray fog gradually drifted towards everyone, a series of squeaks began to appear. These sounds were particularly chaotic, as if many creatures were rubbing their bones against the ground, which made people feel goose bumps even though they didn't see anything.

Richard didn't believe that there was no danger inside this ancient relic.

For well-known reasons, the magic level of the ancient Dawn Plane was far superior to that of today. If Richard hadn't mastered a strong power and had the Star Necklace as a killer, he might not have dared to take risks near the ruins.

"Law professionals are ready to release fire spells."

Bishop Sanders shouted and began to command the magician group to fight.

For this operation, Richard not only drew a large number of backbones from the Harland Mage Association, but also mobilized many magicians and priests from the Harland Parish of the Dawn Church to participate in the war.

The two sides joined forces, and a total of more than 50 magicians participated in the operation, not counting the middle and high-level magicians such as Homera and Richard.

Bishop Sanders's faith is very devout, and he has also received the attention of the Dawn Goddess in recent years. His priest level has been raised to the sixth level.

Now he is the assistant of Archbishop Homera, and his teaching position has been promoted to high priest, which is several years ahead of his professional level.

Before the battle, everyone had discussed that Levin would command the first squadron of infantry, Sanders would command the mage group, and middle-level magicians such as Anne and Butler would serve as the backbone. Richard, Sophia, Undine, Homera and other high-level magicians would be the main assault personnel.

Levin is Martin's eldest son, and his talent is much better than his father Martin. He is only 25 years old, and his warrior level is already the fourth level. Such talent has surpassed Roland and others, and is only slightly worse than Jennings.

If Richard did not have the attribute panel, he would have saved a lot of time in the early stage. In terms of warrior talent alone, he is actually not as good as Levin, Jennings and other outstanding people. Even his father William is still a little worse than these geniuses.

Dozens of fire attribute spells hit the gray fog fiercely, including more than a dozen fireballs and more than twenty scorching rays. The rest are all first-ring magicians who can only release burning hands, and the destructive power of spells is less.

Dozens of fire attribute spells hit, even the protective force field of legendary magicians is unwilling to take it hard.

After all, even legendary magicians cannot withstand too long in a consumption battle with dozens of magicians.

But legendary magicians have countless ways to defeat a large number of low-level magicians, sneak attacks, ambushes, open portals, enter the other-dimensional space, and head-on consumption is the stupidest method. The spells released by the legendary magician basically cannot be spared once the low-level magicians are hit.

The flame attribute spells collided with the negative energy magic, and the reaction was extremely fierce. In an instant, the thick gray fog was melted by the power of the spell.

After the magic group released the first round of spells, dozens of dead rays shot out from the gray fog and pointed directly at the magic group.

Seeing this scene, Richard was very sure that in addition to the legendary creature, the bone dragon, there must be a smart commander in the gray fog.

Although the dead rays are second-ring magic and the energy level is not very high, dozens of death rays are coming together. Even a high-level magician like Richard dare not use a protective force field or magic shield to take it head-on.

If only high-level magicians such as Richard were present, they could only find a way to dodge in the face of this round of attacks. However, Richard has more than a hundred professional soldiers under his command, and almost all of them are equipped with first-level enchanted props force field shields. Richard and others only need to stay behind the soldiers.

I saw dozens of enchanted shields blocking the front. Although they could not completely block all the dead rays, the remaining negative energy was also weakened by half.

A few soldiers hit by negative energy felt a hint of coldness and quickly retreated to the back.

After a round of spells, Bishop Sanders released a large-scale magic holy light barrier, wrapping everyone in the holy light barrier. Archbishop Homera also took out a token and input his divine power into the token.

In an instant, the token burst out with dazzling white light, and the kung fu slowly dissolved in an instant.

The white light was extremely lethal to the undead creatures. The gray fog was illuminated by the white light and dissolved by half in an instant. Hundreds of undead creatures were illuminated by the white light, and they all melted in the holy light in the blink of an eye.

This white light was the trump card spell of the Seven Gods Church, the holy light, which was already a legendary spell.

Because of the attribute restraint, the lethality of this spell to undead creatures has almost doubled. Even if a legendary undead creature is hit by this spell, it is also difficult to escape.

The Holy Light Token is a very important means for the Orthodox Church to restrain evil gods and undead creatures. Making this token not only consumes a lot of faith power, but also consumes precious magic resources.

Only the headquarters of the Dawn Church can make twelve tokens every year. As an important parish of the Goddess of Dawn, only the top priests in the Kingdom of Grant have some.

Even Homaira, who has served the Goddess of Dawn for eighty years, has only three Holy Light Tokens in his hand. Relying on these three Holy Light Tokens, although Homaira is only a ninth-level priest, she has the strength to fight against the most powerful legendary lich.

Homaira's move instantly dispersed more than half of the gray fog. Richard and Wendy seized the opportunity and released the seven-ring magic flame meteor and the six-ring magic chain lightning respectively.

Li Zhe awakened his powerful spellcasting talent. Although he needed to save his magic power to release the starlight bomb and did not use a powerful spell, the power of this magic was still far beyond the same level spell.

A cloud of fire appeared in the sky, and hundreds of fireballs fell from the sky. Although the power of these fireballs was not as strong as the three-ring magic fireball, it was no less powerful than the magic missiles with added fire damage.

The flame meteor hit the undead army, killing and wounding them in an instant, and the skeletons were killed and wounded.

As soon as the flame meteor fell, Wendy released the six-ring magic chain lightning.

In November this year, Wendy broke through the bottleneck and advanced to the sixth ring.

Wendy has a very good talent for magic. She has been in the fifth ring for more than three years. Normally, she needs to wait one or two years to advance to the sixth ring. However, Wendy is very lucky. She has used precious potion resources many times in the past three years, which has accelerated the accumulation of magic power and advanced to the sixth ring a period of time ahead of schedule.

However, if potions are used too much, the induction of magic elements will become slow. In the future, more precious potion resources must be used to advance. When it comes to the promotion to legend, it will often be more difficult.

For this reason, some magicians with great prospects and the hope of becoming legendary often use potions with caution. Magicians of the ascetic school may not even use potions in their entire lives and rely entirely on their own meditation to advance.

This kind of secret knowledge was not known to the Harland Mage Association before.

After all, the Harland family lacks foundation, and they can only summarize some experience after stepping into the pit. It was not until the elves with a long history entered the Harland territory and Wendy traded a lot of magic knowledge with the Mage Association that Richard learned about it.

Chain lightning is inherently destructive, and Wendy also has a lightning staff in his hand. This legendary magic item can not only save 30% of magic power, but also increase the lethality by 50% when releasing lightning spells. The destructiveness of this spell released by Wendy has exceeded that of the seventh-ring magic.

Six or seven lightning bolts hit a large corpse monster fiercely. This undead monster is already at the fifth level. Because it is a large monster, its strength can be compared with that of a seventh-level silver knight. Because it is not afraid of swords and knives, it is normally very difficult to deal with, and is more powerful in close combat than a sixth-level knight.

If the eighth-level Thoros fights in close combat, he may not be able to beat this undead creature.

However, after being hit by multiple lightning bolts, the soul fire of this terrible monster was instantly extinguished.

Seeing that Richard and Wendy's two rounds of spells had a good effect, the bone dragon in the air was very angry and suddenly sent out a large-scale five-ring magic infrasound wave attack. In an instant, an imperceptible infrasound wave appeared, and in the gray fog, ripples that were invisible to the naked eye began to appear.

Infrasound magic is not a negative energy spell. It easily passed through the holy light barrier. In an instant, everyone felt a slight headache. People with strong physical fitness suddenly felt irritable.

The Harland Territory Mage is proficient in ultrasonic spells. Richard instantly found the weakness of this spell and released a four-ring magic silent barrier to block the infrasound wave outside.

Seeing that the infrasound wave attack did not work, the bone dragon in the sky shook its wings and suddenly sprayed a gray-white airflow to the ground.

The dragon flame sprayed by the bone dragon is accompanied by a powerful undead fire, which directly acts on the mental level. If it is contaminated with a little, the body may still be able to withstand the damage, but the soul will be burned dry by the undead fire.

Seeing the dragon flame spraying over, Richard's face suddenly changed. Although he and Sophia, Wendy and other middle and high-level magicians have ways to avoid this undead dragon flame, the soldiers around them will inevitably find it difficult to stop this trouble.

Seeing that the situation is getting critical, Homera stepped forward and released the nine-ring divine art of holy light judgment, and a holy light hit the undead flame fiercely.

Although the bone dragon is already a legendary first-level, the priest has a natural restraint effect on undead creatures. Homera, a ninth-level priest, has barely fought against the legendary bone dragon.

The power of holy light dissipated most of the undead dragon flame, and the remaining power was enough for high-level magicians to stop it. Wendy immediately released the force field shield, relying on this high-level spell to block the undead fire outside.
