Don't call me evil god

Chapter 840: Theory of Mage's Victory

When Poke followed other soldiers in a daze to leave the defense line and take a rest, he was overjoyed!
I've never fought such an easy battle!
Generally speaking, the monster red tide lasts for as short as 3 days, as long as 5 or 6 days, and no longer than a week.

There was no fighting at all during the day on the first day, which meant that their casualties would be greatly reduced and the risk of injury would be much lower!

Think positively.

If those professionals in the Church of Seeking Knowledge could make a little more effort and hold off the attacks for a few more days, would the border defenses be able to rest easy and no longer have to be recruited every year?
Poke doesn't understand so many principles.

He now felt that the Church of Seeking Knowledge was simply too powerful!

In the monster red tide battles of previous years, the clergy of the Church of the Radiant Light played a vital role.

Whether it is the holy knights who can destroy monsters under the state of [Blessing of Glory], or the priests who provide treatment and rescue the dead behind the positions, they are all indispensable roles on the battlefield.

But no matter how powerful they are, they can't stop all the monsters by themselves!

Those countless low-level monsters were fought off only by the King’s Army with numbers and lives.

The adults of the Church of Seeking Knowledge stopped all the monsters solely by their own strength!

……

The results of the first day's battle were so remarkable that they not only exceeded the expectations of ordinary soldiers like Poke, but also many of Nowen's followers were completely unpredictable.

"Are we already that strong?!"

When he was exhausted and retreating from the defense line to hand over to the reserve regiment, although Gale's face was pale and his voice was a little weak, his overall state was extremely high.

It’s nothing, I’m just too excited.

When he was destroying the monsters on the defense line, he didn't think too much. He just kept chanting various group attack magics over and over again, and smashed them wherever there were more monsters.

After a whole day, I couldn't count how many monsters I killed.

All he knew was that he had accumulated 20% of the legendary experience points needed for upgrading. With a few more battles like this, he would be able to reach Stage 4, Level 41.

Don't underestimate it, it's just level 1.

This is level one of level 4, and the experience required can only be described as massive!

Miranda was beside him, supporting Gail.

She was also very tired today, but the expression on her face was quite happy.

Although most of the monsters fell to the ground under the bombardment of various magics before they could rush to the defense line, the pressure of treatment was almost non-existent.

But another important duty of the priests is to dispel and purify the void pollution brought by the tide of monsters.

If purification is not done in time, the area in front of the defense line will soon become a severely polluted area. At that time, the monsters entering this area will become more violent, which is equivalent to adding a series of benefits out of thin air.

Mortals, on the contrary, will be affected by various negative conditions, such as poor spellcasting, slow movements, distracted mind, dulled five senses, etc.

But for Miranda, this battle was undoubtedly a perfect victory.

She had been to the frontline as a candidate crusader. At that time, she was responsible for logistics and treatment. During the battle, a steady stream of wounded were sent for emergency treatment.

The number of injured this time can only be described as negligible.

Only those warriors who had to deal with high-level monsters in close combat suffered minor casualties.

The mages and rangers suffered extremely low casualties.

As for the Rogues and Warlocks, who were few in number, they were doing pretty well;
The former have outstanding self-preservation abilities. Although they are not good at such a large battlefield environment, it is their basic skill to launch sneak attacks on high-level monsters and retreat immediately after a hit.
Not to mention the latter.

The "sinister" warlocks will not personally participate in the battle, they only need to command the hell servants they summoned to go up and serve as cannon fodder. In the past, when relying on the border defense line to resist the red tide of monsters, Miranda had never heard of anyone who had such a beautiful record!
The Church of Knowledge, which was founded less than a year ago, has done it!
With his own strength, he perfectly wiped out the group of monsters that attacked the Ceylon border on the first day, and the casualties were extremely low.

"Cough...cough..."

Pete wanted to say something, but as soon as he opened his mouth he couldn't help coughing weakly twice.

Like Gale, he was now overdrawn from excessive spellcasting. Not only did he feel a tingling sensation in his head from time to time, but the ground under his shoes felt soft when he walked.

Seeing this, Reina hurriedly supported Pete.

With the support of the enemy, Pete finally recovered a little and said happily:

"Actually... it's not surprising."

"The difference between us and the King's Army is that we have more mages."

"To use mages as ordinary soldiers, besides the Magic Hermitage, we are the only ones who can do this, right?"

"Think about it."

"The biggest threat from those low-level monsters is actually their numbers."

"Too many!"

"I can't even count them all. We must have killed at least tens of thousands of them just this day, right?"

"A 4th-level warrior or 3rd-level ranger who can be considered a mainstay, even if he exhausts himself, it would be good if he can kill nearly a hundred low-level monsters in a short period of time."

"It's useful for battlefields like the Monster Red Tide, but it can't change the overall situation!"

"Mage, only mage, has the ability to destroy these low-level monsters in large numbers."

"The King's Army doesn't have that many mages. Over at the Ceylon defense line, the Countess managed to piece together a thousand-man mage group, and they had to rely on portals to travel back and forth between the three defense lines to put out fires."

"Without enough mages, relying on ordinary soldiers to deal with low-level monsters, the battle pattern will definitely be different."

"The magician is the one who is qualified to decide the outcome of such a large-scale battlefield!"

He spoke a long string of words at once, which made Pete, who was already exhausted, almost faint.

The corners of Gale's mouth twitched, and he looked like he wanted to laugh, but he didn't have the energy to laugh out loud.

What they had experienced before were basically small-scale battles, or terrifying enemies of supermodel level like the Stone Spirit Freak, who were few in number but extremely powerful in individual strength.

I have indeed never experienced such a large battlefield where I need to resist a large number of low-level enemies.

After actually experiencing the battle against the monster Red Tide, they finally understood why mages held such a unique and honorable status in the Kingdom of Reyak.

A wizard will always be a wizard!
This is absolutely true.

Professionals such as warriors and rangers, even if they can fight on equal terms with mages of the same level in a one-on-one fight.

But in a large-scale battlefield, they have a "target limit"!

No matter how capable a warrior is, except for a few combat skills that require a lot of rage to support, his attack range is the range of his weapon.

Although the ranger has a long attack range, the price is that the arrows can only shoot at a limited number of targets. Attacking 4 or 5 targets at the same time is basically the limit for a level 3 or 4 ranger.

Only mages have the ability to kill monsters in large numbers using [Blizzard], [Flame Vortex] and the like. No, it should be said that these are the conventional means of killing monsters!
The more enemies there are and the denser they are, the more powerful the magic will be!
