The mage arrives

Except for Russ, Jiaxi, and Yashna, the three mages who experienced captivity and did not get enough rest, the other mages of the mage group who entered the dungeon through the portal opened by Gordon are still in good condition. .When they attacked the black spider fortress, because they only encountered some low-level undead creatures obstructing them, most of them had sufficient spell slots.

Facing the mass charge of the Warg cavalry now, it is time for them to display their strength.

Generally speaking, mages attached to the army, due to their noble status, high self-worth, and rarity, will not be put into the frontal battlefield, but will be responsible for intelligence, investigation and other auxiliary tasks.After all, for ordinary mages, the most suitable is a small battle with more than ten people in an adventure team.On a large battlefield involving tens of thousands of people at a time, a mage can play very little role.

But if the mage can be used intensively, it is another concept.Rob Antello was born as a battle mage, so he also favored military use in the construction of his mage group.Whether it is daily training or the spells learned, almost all of them are applicable to the battlefield.

Only the children of aristocrats with status like Ruth, Jiaxi, and Yashna are eligible to freely choose their development path.

The commander of the wolf cavalry unit must have never imagined that this disgraced and exhausted Freyton unit, which appeared suddenly, was so powerful and had so many mages in the formation.

The eight mages of the mage group have undergone strict spell-casting and concentration training, and they can complete the spell chant even when the arrows are flying by. Accurately and quickly completed the spell preparation in hand.

A total of eight fireballs.

In "The Ancient Age", there is a very extreme and very weird guild.It is called "Five Fireball God Sect".The members of the guild are mage players who firmly believe that the simplest and most direct evocation school spells are the strongest spells.Among the spells of the Evocation School, the most practical, most cost-effective, and most widely applicable fireball spell is the one they most admire.

With five fireball techniques, all ghosts and monsters can be wiped out!If it is not eliminated, it must be that the fireball is not big enough or strong enough!

Although the views of these followers of the Five Fireball God Religion were extreme, Gordon also admitted that if one were to choose the most suitable spell for the battlefield, then it must be Fireball.Not only because of its excellent lethality and damage range, but also because it can cause a huge psychological shock to the enemy.

Eight fireballs flew out of the formation.Like eight flaming death novas, they fell straight into the pack of wolf cavalry.A series of violent explosions shook the ground slightly, and even made people mistakenly think that the aftermath of the big earthquake last night had not dissipated.

Even though he was thirty meters away from the explosion site, Gordon could still feel the heat wave on his cheeks.

Warg cavalry does not have the discipline of human heavy cavalry, and cannot charge in a neat and dense formation.This has always been something that the orc chieftains have always worried about.but now.This shortcoming has saved the lives of many orc cavalry.

It is precisely because of the sparse and undisciplined charge formation.That's why the power of the fireball technique has not been brought into full play.But nonetheless.There were still at least fifty Warg cavalry who died directly under the explosion of the eight fireballs.Then, there were about thirty cavalrymen who were thrown off the backs of the wargs by the powerful shock waves.Even if they didn't fall to their death and become disabled on the spot, they wouldn't be able to play a role in this battle.In addition, because of the potholes left by the eight fireballs on the ground, it was too late to avoid.There were also more than a dozen wolf cavalry who fell or collided with each other.

Arrow rain attack plus magic attack, all kinds of casualties add up, so that the wolf cavalry can reach the enemy before.More than 150 people were lost.

More than one-fifth of the casualties, if this happened to Freyton's local second-line troops, I am afraid that the collapse would have occurred long ago.Even if the tundra orcs had high fighting spirit and were strong and brave, it was impossible for them to be unaffected.

Gordon had already keenly observed that many of the orc cavalry had expressions of fear in their eyes, and their charges were far less resolute and vicious than before.

Ding!

Finally, after paying a lot of casualties, the orc cavalry who rushed to the front collided fiercely with the eviscerating long knife in the hand of the temple knight's fine golden eagle shield.

Just now, showing off their might, hacking and killing the orc cavalry who were like chopping vegetables in the fortress defenders, they were shocked to find that their opponents were different this time.The enemy they faced was like a mountain, standing still, but the hand holding the handle of the knife was numb from the shock.

The shortcomings of the wolf cavalry, which has weak impact and cannot effectively deal with the formation of heavy infantry, are fully exposed at this time.

The giant wolf with sharp claws and fangs is like encountering a hard boulder, unable to bite, if it is forced, its teeth will be broken instead.

Compared with the orcs who were not attacking smoothly, the human side did not hold back.The crossbowmen still used the crossbows in their hands to call the warg cavalry one by one, as calmly as if they were doing target training.

In order to avoid accidental injury, the mages have given up the area-killing fireball at this time, and switched to single-target attack spells.Although it didn't have the exhilarating feeling of blowing up and killing a bunch of people before, this precise and sharp spell attack was still rapidly reducing the number of Warg cavalry.

The priests, on the other hand, were always able to bless the soldiers in front of them with various divine spells or heal their injuries in a timely manner.Even when there was a gap in the front line, he personally went into battle with a mace.

After observing for a while, Gordon finally made a move.

What he used was a new spell learned by the blood mage at the third level: blood tide.This is actually the group version of "Blood Absorption", which can absorb blood from all hostile creatures within a radius of ten meters to replenish itself.This is a great opportunity for Gordon, who has no chance to get a supplement after fighting four strangling golems.

A warg's blood stinks, an orc's blood is sticky.If Gordon had been a vampire who had to drink blood to survive, he might have picked on the poor quality food at this point.However, the blood mage directly extracted the blood, purified the life energy contained in it, and converted it into arcane energy, so he did not have any psychological obstacles.

The pack of wolf cavalry is undoubtedly the best target of Blood Tide. After casting the spell, he can feel the surging and irresistible source of life energy pouring into his body to replenish the previous loss.After the two blood tides were used up, his blood mage's mana pool was completely filled, and he even had a large amount of temporary health, which could resist considerable damage for him for a certain period of time.

Although the main function of the Blood Tide is to provide the Blood Mage with the source of life for casting spells, its lethality cannot be underestimated.Now after various bonuses, Gordon casts a blood tide once, which is equivalent to the power of a four-ring evocation school spell.After returning to perfect condition again, there were more than a dozen more wolf cavalry who died in his hands.

However, in the face of the enemy who still has a numerical advantage, this result cannot reverse the situation.

In the absence of supplies, if the crossbowman's ammunition is used up, the mage's spells and the priest's divine spells are also used up, those fighters alone will definitely not be able to last for a long time.

"Gordon, have you found out?" Viscount Demond asked.

When this commander encountered this wolf cavalry team, he knew that with his own strength, it would be difficult to defeat the opponent head-on.The way with the greatest hope of victory is to use your superior personal strength to kill the commanders in the enemy army.

The orc army, which lacks a complete grassroots officer system, mainly relies on the bravery of its commanders to fight.Moreover, when dividing the troop structure, the tribe is usually used as the unit, and the commander is usually the tribal chief, who is not only the leader on the battlefield, but also the elder in life.

Therefore, in the case of absolute inferiority in military strength, using beheading tactics to deal with orcs is the first choice.

Gordon, Lenas, Antonov, Jude who had just woken up with the help of divine magic, and Yashina were all on the chaotic battlefield, trying to find the leader of the wolf cavalry unit.

"Mr. Gordon, look over there!" Suddenly, Yashina's clear and clear voice sounded a little abruptly on the battlefield where the battle was shaking the sky.

In the little girl's pupils, an emerald green magical aura shone.This is the effect of drinking the two magic potions "Owl's Insight" and "Sharp Vision".

Although the three of Yashna experienced the melee with the Eisenstein family in the camp and were captured by the Sansheng Baptist Church, they haven't had enough rest to prepare their spells again, but in their dimensional bags, There are still some magic potions that can come in handy.

Now the little girl is like a high-precision human-shaped sensor, scanning the entire battlefield to find the orc commanding the wolf cavalry unit.

Due to lack of supplies and racial traditions, orcs are not keen on using gorgeous costumes to distinguish classes in the army.Similar to the complex rules in Freyton's army, the small captain wears a plume helmet, the centurion wears a cockscomb helmet, and the thousand commander wears a double-wing helmet, which does not exist.

However, with his rich experience in distinguishing ordinary orcs from elite orcs in "The Ancient Era", Gordon can easily find the leader who is deeply hidden among the many wolf cavalry.

In the direction Yashna pointed, there was a tall orc with a three-layered bun.His armor and clothing were indistinguishable from other orcs, and apart from Gordon, no one in the team studied the relationship between orc hairstyles and tribal status.

"Very well, that's him."

After getting Gordon's affirmation, the little girl cheered happily, feeling that she had helped a lot.

Gordon and Reinas looked at each other, they nodded in tacit understanding, and then began to prepare. (To be continued..)
