Chapter 45 It's common knowledge that soft girls are often highly assertive...

The question is: In the era of cold weapons, how did one deal with a legion charging into battle?

A: While we're organizing our own defensive lines... let's unleash a barrage of fire first!

Right now, without Finn even having to teach them this simple truth, the Loki Familia adventurers have already begun to take action.

"Two o'clock position, fire magic, ground attack, prepare to fire."

"Be careful not to set fire to the nearby jungle."

"Ice magic is in place, ready to fill any gaps and prevent the fire from spreading. At the same time... aim at those firebirds."

"The area with the highest concentration of monsters is under the jurisdiction of Lefia... Lefia?"

"Ah... yes!"

……

At this moment, as the 'vanguard' including Ling Shu (Kong) and Ying quickly formed a defensive formation, the 'mage group' behind them also made their move.

One after another, perfectly circular spell arrays of different colors lit up.

ready.

At this moment, Ling Shu no longer paid attention to what was behind him.

He (Kong) and Ying each summoned their 'Traveler's Sword' and 'Dawn Divine Sword', their gazes falling on the scout monster rapidly approaching from directly in front of them.

"Our first responsibility is to defend against... the 'fighting wild boars'."

Ling Shu quickly went through the relevant information in his mind.

The 'Fighting Wild Boar' is, as its name suggests, a wild boar-type land monster.

Unlike ordinary wild boars, it is not only larger, comparable to a rhinoceros on Earth, but also has two bony spurs extending forward from both sides of its back in a shape similar to the tail of a fighter jet, resembling rams.

This thing's attack method is similar to that of a mad bull that has spotted a red cloth; in one word: ram.

Generally speaking, even a high-level Lv.2 dwarven adventurer specializing in strength cannot withstand the impact it launches.

This impact also has a 'dizziness' effect.

It's important to understand that the 'abnormal attacks' launched by monsters are not simply physical impacts and shocks; they also possess a certain degree of 'additional attributes'.

'Dizziness' is an additional attribute when fighting wild boars.

It can be considered one of the best strength-type monsters in the 'mid-level' area.

However, in contrast to its advantages in this area, the weaknesses of the 'fighting wild boar' are also obvious...

"Aim and attack three inches above its brow."

"I know, that's where it's crispiest."

It was another brief exchange through their mental link. Ling Shu (Kong) and Ying narrowed their eyes, completely focused.

next moment……

"Whoosh~"

The two, gripping their swords tightly, showed no intention of confronting the 'fighting boar' head-on. Instead, they skillfully dodged the monster's charge by sidestepping, much like a highly skilled matador.

As is well known, military defensive lines are often divided into several overlapping columns, provided that the number of personnel allows.

Currently, although the expedition team consists of only a few dozen people and is clearly outnumbered by the hordes of monsters, there is still some buffer distance between the 'only line of defense' and the 'back row'.

This is partly to ensure that when mages launch close-range artillery attacks, the front-line personnel have room to retreat.

On the other hand, it adds a range of movement for combatants like Ling Shu (Kong) and Ying to allow them to dodge and evade.

moment……

"Pfft~"

With ease, the 'fighting wild boar' charging at the forefront was pierced through the forehead by Ying's sword.

As its brain was destroyed, the boar's carcass continued its momentum for several more meters before turning into ashes and dropping a fist-sized purple magic stone.

At the same time...

"Pfft~"

As Ying sheathed her sword and retreated, Ling Shu (Kong) killed another 'fighting boar' in the same way.

Just then, another monster charged forward, but Ying, with her quick retreat, deftly met it, dodging the straight-on charge, and was killed once again.

And so it goes, over and over again.

until……

"Buzz~"

In mid-air, several 'flying goose dragonflies' swooped in. Just by looking at their overly bright pale purple segmented bodies, one could tell that they posed a considerable threat.

And how to deal with these poisonous aerial enemy units...

"Wind Blade~"

After slaying another 'Fighting Boar', Ying crouched down, stepping on the monster's corpse that hadn't completely turned to ash, and leaped into the air. Her right hand held a sword, while her left palm began to gather violent wind elemental power, instantly forming a vortex...

"Disperse!"

"Bang~"

With a delicate shout, the Wind Vortex Sword, which she had 'detonated' in advance, directly blasted back all the 'Flying Goose Dragonfly'.

Although the power of the uncharged instantaneous 'Wind Vortex Sword' was not enough to directly kill the 'Flying Goose Dragonfly', it did damage the wings of these monsters, preventing them from flapping their wings and leaving the ground.

And so...

"Swish, swish, swish~"

Ling Shu (Kong), who had been waiting on the ground, took advantage of the moment when the 'Flying Goose Dragonfly' fell to the ground and cut them all in two with a few sword strikes.

For a time...

"唪~唪~唪~"

The sounds of ashes turning into ash rang out one after another.

One by one, purple magic stones fell down.

Their teamwork remained incredibly seamless.

Compared to the adventurers on the sidelines who were struggling to maintain defenses in other directions, it was undoubtedly much smoother.

At the same time...

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

While the archers held off the other monsters in mid-air, several fire-attribute magic attacks exploded among the monsters further ahead, reducing their momentum.

This time, even Lefia didn't mess things up.

Or rather, when she is surrounded by her own people and protected in the innermost position, and is not frightened by the sudden approach of monsters, she is still able to chant incantations properly.

As long as she can exert her strength normally...

[Proud warriors, forest archers, and plunderers invading their homeland are right before them...]

Raise your longbows, respond to the cries of your compatriots, and nock your arrows...

[Clad in flames, the forest lights are at your command, and the elves' fire arrows rain down like a storm...]

[Sweep away all barbarian armies—]

As the extremely long incantation that consumed a great deal of magic power ended, a dozen small red spell circles appeared around Lefia, who was in the back row.

They are like giant cannons already loaded with ammunition...

[Rain of Fire Arrows/Volley of Fire Javelin (Fusillade_Fallarica)!!!]

As Lefia chanted the spell name symbolizing 'the final incantation/trigger', the dozen or so small red spell circles began to spew out tongues of fire in succession.

Streaks of crimson flames, like a barrage of fiery rockets, stretched their tails and covered a large area in the distance.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!!!" ×N

The violent and continuous explosions generated a large-area shock wave.

Not to mention the monsters at the center of the explosion, even the individuals around them who were affected were all seriously injured.

The ground was a mess, with scorched earth everywhere.

This power...

And this kill efficiency...

If it were an adventurer of the same level who was skilled in melee combat, they would probably have to keep the monsters standing still for more than ten minutes to kill them.

"Stop the magic attack."

At this moment, seeing that the overall battle situation around him had been completely stabilized by this flaming wide-area artillery spell, Finn immediately shouted the order, "Vanguard, move out and clear out the remaining monsters."

"understand!"

The adventurers who maintained the defensive line finally had a chance to counterattack.

During the raid...

"As expected of the [Thousand-Mage Elf]."

Ling Shu (Kong) and Ying both glanced back at the elf girl who would be teaming up with them, and couldn't help but sigh, "Once she gets into the right mindset, she'll be a true 'mage'."

"Hopefully, she can continue to make the most of her strengths, just like she is now."
