Flames, blood, minced meat, corpse-laying The cruelty of war was vividly displayed in front of the Lucian soldiers this time. Although they were a local garrison force, the Lucians in front of them had seen blood. But the battles they had experienced before were nothing compared to the ambush in front of them. Beat goblins, clean up bandits, and occasionally suppress the newly emerged cult believers. Originally, Lucia's local troops said that the enemies they faced were not very powerful. And after the lycanthropes joined Lucia's army system, they took over most of the hard bones. The previous invasion of dark elves was fought by the Royal Cavalry and the Royal Guards of the Kingdom of Lucia, as well as by the Grand Duke's private soldiers. It can be said that in Lucia today, the power of the royal family and several dukes dominates the political power territory. The military also began to implement an alternative policy of strengthening cadres and weak branches. This kind of political structure allows the Kingdom of Lucia to maintain relatively stable domestic politics even though it is not bound by a special contract and power system. Although struggles are everywhere, the struggles and compromises between several large families are far more complicated than Dozens of families have joined together before and it is easy to achieve a balance. Therefore, the Lucia Kingdom will not end up like the Cruze Kingdom, where local powerful factions and the royal family are at war with each other. However, as a result, the combat effectiveness of the local garrison units that are not part of the direct line depends on whether the local commanders are careful and whether there are enough training opponents there. The outstanding ones among them can naturally be regarded as elites. At the bottom are the pustules in Tallinn Castle. Although the Lucian soldiers who were ambushed in front of them were much better than those pustules, they even seemed to perform better than the Viper Cavalry Regiment that the players encountered. But encountering an ambush and facing a covering blow from the beginning would be fatal to most feudal armies. In addition, the junior officers who had initially tried to reorganize their ranks had lost all their efforts under the sniping attacks of the halfling rogues. By the time the remaining commanders arrived, the situation had become unmanageable. Barrett, who was in a head-on state of inertial conflict, turned into a battlefield meat grinder, feeling like he was in no one's land in the area shrouded in cobwebs. Every cold light will bring out a spurt of blood, and with every swing, a Lucian will fall forever. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? If the soldiers around could calm down, follow the usual training instructions, form a formation, and use their weapons to fight against Barrett. Even if the constraints of the spider web cannot completely restrict Barrett, it can at least effectively limit his killing efficiency and support the arrival of relatively strong elites in the army. He would not become a trembling lamb to be slaughtered like he is now, unable to resist under Barrett's butcher's knife. "It's a pity that panic and fear have already occupied their hearts at this time, and these six-gods and masterless guys can't hold their weapons tightly at all. They struggled to get Barrett's blade, but the random but weak movements only made them entangled in the cobwebs tighter and tighter. As a result, he completely lost the ability to move and became a dead soul under the broken peak. Just when Barrett picked up a kick and broke the neck of a Lucian soldier, he subconsciously leaned down, and then the broken peak in his hand swept a green ray across his chest and hit the blade directly. , and then seemed to disappear in the air because it missed the target. Weakening ray? With this first impression popping up in his mind, Barrett immediately gave up on the soldiers in front of him who had been completely demoralized, and began to look for the caster who had just fired the ray. As a spell of the necromancy system, ray of enfeeblement is easy to learn and cannot be saved after hitting. The effect caused is not attribute damage or attribute absorption but attribute penalty. This is like a nightmare for most professionals who rely on strength attributes. It is a good means for the caster to restrict and weaken the melee system in the early stage. Although for Barrett, even if he is hit by the debilitating ray, he can easily remove it using the power of the iron heart. But that way, he would have no trump card to protect himself before the cooldown of Iron Heart Power was restored. So when he used the blade barrier to block the spell just now, he was somewhat relieved. But when Barrett was looking for who had just plotted against him, all he saw was the still chaotic crowd of heads. The spell caster seemed to be very careful. After completing the spell, he immediately hid in the crowd, using his comrades as smoke to ensure his safety. It was at this moment that Ellie¡¯s second powerful fireball spell once again raised a dazzling rose in the crowd. The entrance to the mountain col, which was once a crowded place, could no longer see anything above the knee. It's a pity that the previous enemy commander had already retreated into the mountain col with his cronies.?. Temporarily avoiding Rielle's powerful range spell. When the short-legged dwarf arrived this time, Barrett tried to rush into the col. But just as he emerged, an axe, a spear and a long sword struck at Barrett's chest from left to right. Almost at the same time, Barrett discovered that the green light that had appeared before lit up again. Or a weakening ray? Didn't that guy prepare any other spells? Or is it that this guy only knows this one spell now? Barrett stood on tiptoes, and his figure dared to exit the enemy's ambush point before the two sharp blades were added. At the same time, the green light shot out was also dodged by Barrett turning sideways. It seems like there are still a few of those guys who see through it! In such a chaotic situation, they were able to arrange a blocking battle immediately. You can¡¯t always be an incompetent person! It's a pity that the overall strength is still insufficient. While making a judgment in his mind, Barrett shouted to his companions behind him: "There is a spellcaster here, and it is very likely that he is a warlock. The big guy asked whether he should be captured alive in exchange for a ransom." Generally speaking, warlocks They can learn fewer spells than mages, but they also become more flexible in their use. And Barrett's judgment just now was probably based on the speculation that the spellcaster in Opportunity used the debilitating ray twice in a row. Generally speaking, even those who have just become mages will not record their daily spells as highly targeted spells such as debilitating rays. Only a warlock with little choice would throw out the same spell continuously. Of course, if you use a scroll wand, that's a different story. And once it is confirmed that a famous warlock is among the members of the other party, according to the war rules of the Western Continent, this means a large war ransom. Because most warlocks are inherited by blood, their families often keep them alive or pay a large sum of money. There are indeed non-bloodline sorcerers, but they are extremely rare. For example, someone is born in a whirlpool, and the whirlpool injects chaos into his body, but kills him every time. Or someone survives a slaadi attack but is implanted with a Chaos-infected embryo. This allows them to draw from the entropic forces of the Elemental Chaos. Roughly unleash those spells by approaching this ancient source or drawing power directly from this plane. So most of the time everyone ignores this extremely rare lucky person. "If you are really a warlock, it will indeed be a considerable amount of income. But Barrett, do you think we are capable of taking a prisoner into battle now?" Rielle, who put away the strange object, confirmed it. I asked after it had not suffered any damage. After hearing this, Barrett seemed to think of something: "That's right! The two sides haven't officially started war yet! We have no choice but to wrong them in a small conflict like this." Speaking of this, Barrett pointed at the mountain col. At the entrance, Kai Zhan pointed at the ground. After realizing it, Ellie took out a small shovel model from her waist. After she used it as a prop to cast the spell, she heard a soft hum and the sound of a heavy object falling from the other side of the rock wall. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Barrett and Anvil launched a surprise attack. It turned out that only the right part of the flanking attack was left. Most of the ambushers on the left fell into a sudden deep pit at this time. Barrett even saw a few palms clinging to the edge of the hole. It seemed that those Lucia soldiers with quick eyes and hands at that time were not very successful. self-help. But even the ambusher on the right, who was not affected by the spell, was slowed down by the sudden change of his comrades. The dwarf holding the strong shield stepped forward and collided, and immediately used the powerful impact to force the opponent's weapon to be difficult to use. Lalu jumped out from behind Barrett and headed straight for the only human in civilian clothes in sight. A small trap-making technique easily defeated the enemy's counterattack efforts. This spell allows the caster to create a dimensional pit 10 feet long, 10 feet deep, and up to a maximum of 30 feet per two caster levels. Although the caster must create the pit on a level surface of sufficient size, since it extends into other dimensions, the pit has no weight and does not alter the original texture of the creation site. Creating a pit on a ship's deck is no more difficult than creating it on a dungeon floor or forest land. The moment the caster creates the pit, any creature within the area must make a Reflex saving throw to safely jump to the nearest accessible space. In addition, the edges of the pit are sloping, and any creature within close proximity must make a Reflex saving throw with a bonus 2 to avoid falling into the pit. If an effect such as bull rush pushes a creature into a pit, it cannot save to avoid falling in. Creatures that fall into a pit take normal falling damage. Climb its rough stone wallsIf you have special props, it will be quite a difficult thing. When the spell's duration expires, creatures in the pit rise with the bottom of the pit until they return to the normal surface. The entire ascent takes 6 seconds. As a spell for separating enemies, although pit creation is not outstanding, it still has a pretty good effect on targets without flight or teleportation capabilities. It is sometimes a suitable choice to disrupt the enemy's formation on the battlefield. But just when Lalu was about to knock down the commoner, the man without armor suddenly let out a howl. Immediately afterwards, the opponent seemed to have experienced a short-term growth. His bones crackled and his figure suddenly grew by half a head. At the same time, the muscles on the body have become stronger and larger than before. With the appearance of the wolf's head and claws, it seemed that the players were immediately told that he was not the arcane spell caster. At this time, Lalu, who had already swooped out, had no time to stop her movements. Seeing that the original little white rabbit suddenly turned into a big bad wolf, Lalu felt a chill in her heart for no reason. He realized that he was like this. One action seems to be a bad choice. Barrett, who also realized something was wrong, immediately prepared to rush for reinforcements, but the heavily armed plate armor warrior blocked Barrett's way with his two deputies. As the top commander of Lucia¡¯s army in this operation, the tin cans in front of him are not just useless snacks that rely on his status to eat. Although they both came from noble families, this young man from the Kingdom of Lucia is still very hard-working, unlike his peers who only know how to live their lives. ??Whether it is a noble or a commoner in the game, or a similar second generation or ordinary person. There are always those who work hard, those who muddle along, and those who are degenerate in a group. Of course, people often remember only the two extremes, and often ignore the middle layer that accounts for the largest share. And because they don¡¯t understand the social resources they control, there is a huge gap between the two groups in terms of committing evil. As long as one or two of the so-called superior people appear to be morally corrupt and have poor means, it will cause great panic in society due to sensational things. So much so that it ultimately affects the reputation of the entire group. But what cannot be denied is that as the project progresses, more resources will be allocated to it. Those so-called superior people tend to go more smoothly and further than the Kuhaha people. The two-handed giant sword of the Lucian noble in front of him is very orderly. Although basic flaws could still be found in Barrett's eyes, the other two soldiers around him successfully blocked the flaws with their own weapons. An assistant arranged by the family? Or were they the confidants he conquered after joining the army? It seems that it is impossible not to take some risks this time. Barrett made up his mind immediately. To be continued.
