Chapter 527: Stick to Defense (2)
Judging from the current average strength of the Adventurer School, dealing with one or two Flaming Skulls is really not a big problem. When Pei Renli was less than level 20, he could kill them without injury with his friends. As long as he was careful and tactical
Properly arranged, this thing is not a threat at all.
The problem is that now, in order to defend against the attack of undead creatures, everyone is in a crowded formation. If a fireball explodes in the crowd...
As said before, you can always trust the power of fireball.
The flaming skull floating down from the entrance turned to the direction of the defense line as expected. The brightness of the flames surrounding the hanging skull suddenly increased. Then the flames subsided, and two broad bean-sized flames passed over the heads of the skeletons and zombies.
The parabola swings over.
It can be said that when you see the Flaming Skull, it is already too late to stop it. If it were not wrapped in a layer of flames, a hanging skull would be very dangerous in an environment full of undead creatures.
Hard to detect.
When two fireballs are fired, you cannot use the power ray to intercept them. If you block one, the other will definitely hit, so you have to detonate them in advance.
"Earth Shield!"
Pei Renli simply lay on the ground without getting up, and reached out to slap the floor tiles.
Everyone who was stunned by the previous fireball spell immediately saw a stone wall rising from the ground, and what followed...
--boom!
--boom!
The two fireball spells hit the earth shield almost at the same time in no particular order. Of course, it couldn't stop the power of the fireball spell. It collapsed with a huge roar. The shock wave carried the fragments and scattered them, hitting the armor and defense lines with bang bang bang.
The sound made many people suffer bruises and bruises.
Using fireball indoors is extremely risky. If you are not careful, you can easily get injured by accident, and the caster and teammates may be buried alive.
The underground laboratory was built very solidly, almost like a bomb shelter. The ceiling would not collapse, but the loud noise echoed in the semi-enclosed environment, which was almost a form of torture.
Pei Renli felt his ears buzzing, accompanied by a strong stinging pain. For a moment, he wondered if his eardrums had been shattered.
The smoke filled the air in an instant, and Pei Renli quietly raised his head, shook his staff, and the suspended dust quickly fell, and he regained his clear vision.
The earth shield was blown to pieces, leaving nothing behind. The human shields in the front row lay in a circle like gourds rolling on the ground. A layer of eye-catching radial burn marks appeared on the ground, which was full of cracks and seemed to be lifted up.
On the floor, the power of magic is very obvious in crowded places.
The guards on the noble side are better than the students at the Adventurer School. After all, everyone is equipped with enchanted armor. Apart from the formation being a little distorted, there is no big problem.
The only good news is that because the fireball technique was blocked by the earth shield, and the earth shield was erected among the undead creatures, all the undead creatures in the surrounding circle were blown away, and just hit everyone's armor with a bang.
The fragments on it are probably the remains of these skeletons and zombies.
But the bad news is that there are still a large number of undead creatures coming in from the entrance, and it will take only a few seconds to fill up the empty space.
According to the monster illustration, the Flaming Skull can only fire one fireball per day, but Pei Renli knew that the illustration can only be used as a reference, and that in actual combat, he can encounter all kinds of weird things.
In order to prevent another fireball spell, the Burning Skull must be dealt with first.
He was about to tear up the scroll when he heard Anna shouting from behind him:
"Aim for the Burning Skull! Hurricane Arrow!"
Most of the shock waves and debris were blocked by the human shields in the front row. The casters and long-range support in the back were only knocked over by the storm. They all got up and shot a row of arrows before the undead creatures covered the Flaming Skull.
rain.
Everyone knows that if there are two more fireballs, there is no need to defend them, they cannot be blocked at all.
The arrows rushed over like raindrops, and the undead creatures that squeezed into the underground were eliminated from the range on the spot, and the flaming skull hiding under the cover was no exception.
Pei Renli saw an arrow shining with positive energy just hit the Burning Skull's forehead, causing it to shatter on the ground. The other two Burning Skulls also staggered to the ground in the rain of arrows, and were killed.
The undead creatures pressing up from behind were crushed to pieces.
"Get up! Come on, keep playing the piano."
Moen was next to him, and Perrenli pulled him up. He was probably stunned by the explosion of the fireball technique. His fingers shook when he touched the strings. If he didn't play the piano quickly, he would be unable to continue.
Morn has recently learned a new ability called lingering sound. Even when the bard stops playing, the buff effect will last for a few seconds.
I don’t know if playing the piano has become Moen’s muscle memory. I can see that others are still confused, but their hands have begun to play the piano skillfully. In the tight-tempo magic music, the soldiers in the front row who were knocked over got up one after another.
.
As for the ability to buff in a large area, it really depends on the bard.
Pei Renli pressed his aching temples, took out two test tubes and threw them towards the door. As the glass bottle broke, the milky white liquid inside immediately turned into large amounts of steam, making a hissing sound.
Any undead creatures that squeezed in from the entrance were first covered in steam. When they came out of the steam, many skeletons simply slapped themselves on the ground and became completely motionless. Zombies and ghouls, which have "flesh", are relatively good.
A little, but it can also be seen that it has been greatly weakened.
This is vaporized holy water. Its power is lower than that of ordinary holy water that is effective when smashed into it, but it covers a large area and is more durable.
The only bad thing is that Pei Renli only has those two bottles left.
After all, Teacher Grace recently banned Pei Renli from entering the alchemy laboratory, and the potions have never been effectively replenished. Moreover, Pei Renli does not like things like hot glue now, so there is no inventory at all, otherwise a few bottles will be lost at this time.
Fire glue has also been very effective in the past.
But it's not a big problem. Pei Renli can make up for the shortcomings with scrolls. He hasn't made potions recently and has spent all his time making scrolls, so his inventory is quite sufficient.
The two bottles of vaporized holy water bought time for the stunned teammates to return to their positions one by one, so that they would not be chewed by ghouls while they looked confused.
And just when the effect of the vaporized holy water was coming to an end and the rising steam was about to dissipate, Pei Renli's buzzing ears heard the sound of horse hooves again.
The trip rope set at the door did not work this time. In the gradually thinning steam, two black figures on horseback rushed out one after another.
Of course he was riding an undead bone horse, but the guy on his back was no longer just a skeleton holding a spear, but a tin can wearing a breastplate and holding a lance.
Judging from the small amount of exposed dry skin, it seems that there is a zombie inside this armor.
Undead Knight, a level 35 undead creature.
They knocked through the skeletons and zombies in front of them and charged towards the defense line where everyone was. To be precise, they charged towards Gary, the most prominent figure in the defense line.
Gary is always at the front because of his thick skin and thick flesh. His thick plate armor allows him to do nothing. Just standing there can make low-level undead creatures such as skeletons and zombies helpless, but
Facing the incoming undead knight, Gary did not dare to be careless. He hurriedly pushed away the approaching skeleton and raised his shield in front of his chest with both hands:
"The city will never fall!"
There was a bang, and the lance hit Gary's shield. The two sides were in a stalemate for a moment, and then the undead knight's lance was not as strong as Gary's shield, and it immediately exploded from the shield.
But Gary was not immobile. The undead knight's impact was so powerful that he almost knocked Gary away. Thanks to the people behind him who supported his back, he could barely hold on.
"God's grace!"
The person next to Gary happened to be Michelle. She glanced at the ghoul in front of her, jumped up, rounded the mace named Morning Star, and smashed it on the undead knight's head.
The divine aura shrouded Michelle like a coat, and even without the blessing of divine grace, the brute force alone was enough to flatten the undead knight's head.
And the rating of level 35 for this thing is not nonsense. Facing the incoming mace, she immediately tightened the reins of the undead bone horse. The horse's hooves were raised high, and the undead fire burning on the horse's hooves quickly appeared in Michelle's eyes.
Zoom in and kick her on the scales.
Michelle was kicked down from mid-air, but Michelle's mace also smashed the head of the undead bone horse. The skeleton horse that was stepping on the undead fire was shattered on the ground.
As if he had expected it, the knight landed firmly on the ground, and then pulled out the rusty long sword from his waist.
Whether it is a skeleton knight or an undead knight, the sword on their waist is not just a tetanus blade. The undead sword has the effect of negative energy attack. If it is hit, it will be similar to the one hit by Rufus during the White Day attack.
Like Kaya who was injured, she would probably lose her fighting ability on the spot.
At this time, Michelle had just been knocked down and had not yet stood up again. Her posture was very unfavorable. Most of the other people around her were also entangled with skeletons and zombies, and there was no way to immediately provide support.
"Go to hell!"
At the critical moment, Gary held his shield and slammed into the undead knight.
To be able to wear heavy armor, you must first have enough strength, otherwise walking will be difficult, and secondly, you must have a very strong body, otherwise you will not be able to support the battle.
Although Gary is not good at using any weapons, he is still very qualified in terms of strength and endurance.
The shield specially equipped with spikes hit the undead knight's breastplate. Because the opponent's armor was too hard, the spikes scratched through the armor, but the shield itself still hit the undead knight's chest and pushed it back.
This gave Michelle time to stand up again. She immediately raised her hand and pointed at the unbalanced undead knight, and the cross-shaped flash shone brightly.
The latter planned to use the arm shield on his arm, but the power of the mace couldn't be blocked by a small arm shield.
The exaggerated brute force made the undead knight's arm make a crisp sound of fracture. The solid conical spikes on the mace deeply penetrated the undead knight's armor. With Michelle's flick, the entire left arm of the undead knight
Was torn off.
Unfortunately, the 'Disintegrate Undead' effect on Morning Star was not triggered, otherwise the undead knight would have been turned into dust on the spot with one blow.
