Above the mage!

Chapter 90: Leveling Up with Monsters

Next, the city wall where Gode and his men were located continued to experience several waves of attacks from ferocious bats.

However, as the battle continued and the number of attacks increased, everyone gradually became familiar with the attack patterns of the ferocious bats and became more and more adept at dealing with them.

During this time, the mage apprentices from Team 7 attacked six or seven times in succession.

Gaode participated in three of them, and each time he successfully killed three ferocious bats by relying on the longer range and outstanding lethality of [Fire Arrow+].

Including the initial attack, the progress of obtaining the origin of the ferocious bat has reached (4/7).

The situation appears to be stable and improving.

But change often happens in an instant.

Another new wave of ferocious bats swarmed towards the section of the city wall that Gode was guarding.

Among this wave of ferocious bats, the four leading ones were obviously much larger than the other ones, and the fur covering their bodies was also darker in color.

The arrows shot by the archers landed on the four ferocious bats, but they bounced off as if they had hit metal, without being able to penetrate their bodies at all.

"It's a 1st-ring ferocious bat!" Li Luo frowned.

The 0-ring ferocious bat can still be hurt by ordinary arrows.

However, once the earth vein creatures reach the level of Ring 1, they will have extremely strong physical resistance.

Basically, only spells or alchemical weapons can cause threatening and substantial damage to it.

Dang Dang Dang!
These four ferocious bats charged forward, bravely fighting their way through the hail of arrows.

Seeing this happening, all the mage apprentices from Team Seven changed their expressions.

They didn't think their tricks could threaten 1st level earth vein creatures.

Moreover, even if there were no 1st-ring ferocious bats, at this moment, led by the four 1st-ring ferocious bats, the number of ferocious bats approaching the city wall has reached nearly a hundred.

This number is not something they can stop.

This was the first time that Team Seven encountered a crisis during this defense.

“What should we do?!” Those with poor psychological quality have begun to lose their composure and are at a loss.

This panic is contagious.

"Don't be afraid, there are high-level mages who will take action!" Li Luo noticed the change in everyone's emotions in time and shouted loudly to "stabilize the morale of the troops."

At this moment, as Lilo's voice fell, Gode felt an invisible and powerful energy wave suddenly surge out from the tower behind him.

On top of the city wall, there is a tower built at regular intervals, and on top of the tower are alchemical weapons.

Of course, the city of Bremen was clearly not prepared to use alchemical weapons in this defense.

The one who took action was the mage!

Gao De subconsciously turned his head and vaguely saw a figure in a robe flash by in the fortress-like tower standing on the city wall.

The next moment, in front of the section of the city wall defended by Team Seven, a cloud composed of countless tiny daggers formed on the advance path of the ferocious bat group.

These daggers flashed with cold light, circling, dancing and spinning in this fixed area, leaving out tracks, like a dagger storm.

The ferocious bat had no time to react and had to face the cloud of daggers.

The dagger drew silver tracks on the ferocious bat's body.

No matter whether it was the 4 1st-ring ferocious bats in the lead or the nearly 0 -ring ferocious bats, there was no difference at all in front of these rotating magic daggers.

Each bat was hit by several daggers at the same time.

Every ferocious bat that was hit let out a shrill scream.

Their bodies were torn into pieces by the dagger, and blood and flesh splattered everywhere.

They tried to flee or dodge, but the speed and number of the daggers far exceeded them, spreading at an extremely fast speed. Soon, the air was filled with the blood and debris of the ferocious bats.

This wave of attack that frightened all the mages in Team 7 was easily resolved.

"Is this the true power of the spell?" Gao De muttered to himself in his heart, "I just don't know what level of spell it is, one level or two levels?"

He finally understood why the Level 0 spell, which he considered to be quite powerful, was given the slightly teasing name of "magic trick".

It’s not because the 0th-level spells are too weak, but because the power of the higher-level spells is too strong!
The gap between a mage and his apprentice is still too big.

This most threatening wave of attacks was resolved by the high-level mage hidden in the tower. After that, the situation returned to stability and no more accidents occurred.

After nearly half an hour of attack, these ferocious bats that flew out of the forest were finally basically defeated.

The remaining scattered ferocious bats were no longer able to organize a large-scale offensive and disappeared into the wild woods outside the city.

The battle is over.

Gao De looked at the bat carcasses and broken wing fragments scattered on the ground outside the city wall, then looked at the several injured city guards on the wall, and couldn't help but sigh.

This ferocious bat is a very easy-to-deal-with earth creature.

Because they have no means of long-range attack, nor do they possess extraordinary powers, they are just physically strong and use their lives to withstand the rain of arrows and attack the city walls.

It feels a bit like a moth flying into a flame and seeking its own death.

But even so, many city guards were scratched and bitten by those who broke through the defense line and the mage was too late to deal with them.

According to Lilo, the ferocious bats carry deadly diseases, so one can imagine what will happen to these scratched city guards.

At least for most of Half Life.

But that's how combat works. It's almost impossible to avoid death or injury.

"We were all strangers before this and had never fought together before. It was already pretty good that we were able to complete the mission without too many casualties in the first battle."

But the team leader Lilo was obviously very satisfied with the result and praised it directly.

This was very useful to the seven teams of mage apprentices who had gathered together temporarily.

Everyone was in a good mood as they received both tangible material rewards and certain emotional values.

"The situation was complicated and urgent when defending the city, and it was impossible to accurately count the number of ferocious bats you participated in killing."

Li Luo paused for a moment, swept his eyes across everyone's faces, and finally said:

"But don't worry, you will definitely get the extra rewards we agreed upon in advance."

"You will go to the registration staff later to report your number, and we will calculate your reward according to the number of kills you reported."

"I believe that no one would make false reports." Li Luo said with a smile.

In fact, even if it is false reporting, there will not be much difference.

After all, a second-class wizard apprentice can only cast a dozen tricks at most, and that’s all his magic power is.

In the battle to defend the city just now, although no one would count how many tricks each wizard apprentice cast, the approximate number was still known.

So even if everyone tries to be cunning and report more, they dare not report too much.

But when Li Luo said this, he seemed very generous and made everyone feel extremely comfortable.

As for Lilo, the money was not paid by him, but by the government.

Even if this money is not given to the "wild mages" who participate in the defense, it will not go into his pocket.

Since that's the case, why not be more generous? At least you can get a good impression from everyone.
