Just when Selmen thought that Gavin didn't want to confront the Kuo-Toa fish head-on, he evacuated all the kobolds.
"Attack!" The kobolds attacked in unison. Countless kobolds emerged from the rooftops of the surrounding buildings, throwing stones and spears from the kobolds.
Under normal circumstances, the strength of the kobolds is indeed insufficient. Whether it is throwing stones or throwing spears, their lethality is relatively limited. However, with the blessing of six or seven-meter-high buildings, their power has increased to a higher level.
The most important thing is that there are enough of them, densely covering the entire street, and there is no place for those Kuo Tao fish to hide.
The only thing he could do was to hold his shield high and resist this intensive attack.
At this time, the uniqueness of these Kuo-Tao fish people was revealed. They were covered with a layer of oily and slippery substance, which made them very slippery. Not only did it become more difficult to catch them, but those who hit them also Throwing stones and spears will also slip, and the damage will be greatly reduced.
Therefore, after one round of attacks, these Kuo Tao fish people were injured more than others.
But this is just the beginning.
The next second, an overwhelming red fireball crashed down from the roof of the building.
Fireball!
A large number of fireballs, enough to cover all three streets after the floods receded.
The proportion of warlocks among the kobolds in Weizemei New Village is frightening, and the selection priority of fireball is second only to stone shaping. They directly explained with actions what saturation strike is.
Just the soldiers from the Deep Forest Valley who were watching from a high altitude were all numb.
Not to mention the Kuo-Toa people in the streets. All the sounds around them were clicking and roaring, "Go into the house, take shelter in a human house."
Just like fish, kuo-toa people have no vocal cords and cannot shout or make sounds like humans or animals. However, they also have their own unique way of vocalizing and communicating, and they can even speak.
When in the water, they communicate silently in human eyes by vibrating the floats and gills in their bodies. This kind of sound is difficult for ordinary people to detect.
On land, they make strange noises by biting their huge fish mouths and vibrating their gills, simulating vocal cords to make sounds. Just like the words of the kobolds have the sound of "Wang", the words of the Kuo-Tao fishmen have a very serious clicking sound.
Those dark building entrances without door panels seemed to be their only escape direction. All of a sudden, all the Kuo Toa fish rushed toward the doorways of these buildings.
It's just that there are too many of them, and the doorways are few and narrow. When you fight for them, they directly block the place.
By the time you see the fireball, it's basically too late to react.
The speed of this thing's flying fire is no slower than that of a strong crossbow or strong bow.
boom! boom! boom!
All three streets were in flames.
In the face of this kind of attack, the slipperiness of the Kuo Tao fishmen was completely useless. The mucus on their bodies was dried instantly, along with their skin and flesh. The powerful flame impact directly burned them. It became a rolling gourd.
Some rolled directly four to five meters, and some directly hit the stone building.
This is not a simple single-layer coverage attack, but an overlapping coverage attack.
Many areas will be enveloped by two fireballs at the same time. If one of them fails, you will have to be baptized by heavy artillery twice in a row.
Like most monster races, the kuo-toa are born with multiple hit dice. As long as they reach adulthood, they have four hit dice, one more than the hobgoblin.
Although this does not give them the inherent combat effectiveness of a fourth-level warrior, it does make them thick-skinned and relatively difficult to kill.
But no matter how fleshy they are, not many Kuo Tao can survive after being hit with two fireballs in a row. Without exception, they are all professionals and have entered a state of residual health.
A large number of stones and spears were falling from above their heads, swamping them in minutes. Even if they were not killed alive, they would be seriously injured and on the verge of death. If no one was there to treat them, they would not be able to survive. The difficulty is not that high.
After just one round of fighting, out of the hundreds of Kuo-Toa who invaded Weizemei New Village, only a few dozen Kuo-Toa took advantage of the opportunity and hid in the surrounding stone buildings.
But they only delayed their death. When they got into the building, they found that dozens of kobolds holding kobold spears were waiting for them inside the building.
Dozens of Kuo Tao fish sounds like a lot, but they are not distributed in one building, but seven or eight, with an average of three or four per building, facing enemies seven or eight times their size.
What makes them even more inexplicable is that these kobolds have no intention of confronting them head-on. Before they get close, various magic-like abilities take action first.
Although these spell-like abilities are not high-level, they are all small first- and second-level spells, but they can form a strong supporting role.
Or entangle them and tie them in place with an entanglement technique.
Or just let them slip with a greasy spell.
Or directly put them into a coma or trance state, use a sleep spell or hypnosis spell.
Or uncontrollable laughter, a ring of laughter.
When surrounded by a group of enemies, being controlled even for a few seconds is fatal. There is no chance to wake up or escape, and they are directly poked into a sieve.
At this point, all the Kuo Tao fishmen who rushed into Weizemei New Village were wiped out.
However, this is only a small part of the Kuo-Tao fish people. More Kuo-Tao fish people were intercepted outside the new village along with the main body of the lake, and one after another, like the tide, they gathered outside the new village.
With the lesson learned from the destruction of the vanguard army, the main force of the Kuo Tao fishmen no longer rushed towards the new village of Weizemei. Instead, they avoided the stone buildings and gathered in the open space.
These Kuo-Tao fishmen moved very efficiently and gathered very quickly. Within a few minutes, the number of Kuo-Tao fishmen gathered here exceeded a thousand.
A tall Kuo-Tao fish man holding a strange-shaped staff was surrounded in the center, and he roared with strange screams. It was a strange language that Selmen had never heard before, and the rhythm was very strong. But after listening to it, I felt a little bad from the inside out. There was an uncontrollable anger that filled my heart, giving rise to an urge to tear everything around me into pieces.
This feeling becomes stronger and stronger as more and more Kuo Tao people join in with their heads shaking.
"This is the breath of the Black Prison. Yes, this is the breath of the Black Prison that can cause creatures to go crazy and fall into a state of killing. The Sword of the Deep Forest will attack with me, targeting the high priest of the Kuo Tao fishman." If he dared to watch any longer, he directly took off his elf longbow, aimed at the high priest of the Kuo Tao fishman, and started shooting.
Because he realized that this was the special attack method of this group of Kuo Tao fishmen, and they were the root cause of the madness around the Black Prison.
They are using this method to infect the kobolds in Weizemei New Village, causing them to give up their defensive advantages and actively rush out of the village to fight with them.
The willpower of those kobolds is generally not too high, and a large number of them have been controlled by the influence. They howled and attacked the kobolds around them. The screams of kobolds were heard one after another in Weizemei New Village.
"Lord Selmen, take your people and leave, the revenge storm is coming." Gavin's voice sounded in Selmen's ears, and it was obviously filled with the power of magic.
This made Selmen's mind suddenly clear. He turned around and found that they had been enveloped by a huge black storm cloud. The Sword of the Deep Forest soldiers beside him, their eyes filled with bloodshot eyes, were gnashing their teeth at the bandits. The Taoyu people launched an attack. Judging from their posture, it was as if the opponent was their life and death enemy.
Obviously, they have been affected by the sacrificial power of the Kuo Tao fish people.
They didn't even notice that they were in the center of the powerful nine-ring spell.
"Wake up, wake up, retreat, retreat, retreat quickly." Selmen shouted at his subordinates.
A few with stronger wills took the opportunity to break free, and a few others seemed to be oblivious to their lord's orders.
Selmen directly took out several long arrows from the quiver, cut off the arrows, and aimed at the out-of-control Deep Forest Swords, each one with one arrow. They were all facing each other, and they also showed their superb archery skills. .
Under the pain, these swordsmen of the deep forest all came to their senses. One of them even glared at Selmen angrily. He raised his hand and almost shot the sharp arrow in his hand at his lord. He stopped the car at the last second and hurriedly bowed and saluted.
Selmen waved his hand and said: "This is not your fault. This is the special ability of those Kuo Tao fish people. Climb up. Everyone climbs up quickly. This spell will be formed soon."
Revenge Storm has always been known for its ability to cover an area. It is an out-and-out battlefield spell. With a radius of more than one hundred meters, even if you want to fly out, it is not an easy task in a short time.
Although the abilities of these Kuo-Toa people are powerful and strange, they have also done a stupid thing. Gathering their people together at such a high density makes it difficult for this spell not to exert its power.
Boom!
The terrifying lightning and thunder directly suppressed the collective prayers and sacrifices of the Kuo Toa people below. It is unknown how many Kuo Toa people were shocked into temporary deafness.
At this time, the Kuo-Toa people could barely maintain their composure. Living in isolation, they had no idea what the huge black storm cloud above their heads meant, not even their high priest.
Because what they believe in is not God in the true sense, the knowledge they know is the knowledge their God knows.
As for the skill of Revenge Storm, it is a typical boiled frog in warm water. The first two rounds are still about gathering power, and the lethality will not be the strongest until the third and fourth rounds.
In the eyes of those who know the goods, two rounds of twelve seconds are enough for them to run out of the general coverage of the Revenge Storm, so its lethality is often not that powerful.
More than ten seconds sometimes seem very long. For example, when sprinting 100 meters, every second passes so slowly.
Sometimes it is so short, just a moment of hesitation passes by.
The will of these Kuo Tao fish people is very firm. Even in the face of strong acid rain and baptism, their crazy sacrifices have not wavered in the slightest. In their view, this is a test of their faith.
It wasn't until six bolts of lightning fell from the sky and struck the high priest and the other five priests surrounding him that they realized something was wrong.
No matter how little they have been to the ground, no matter how little common sense they have, they still know that lightning will not hit people casually, and it is still so accurate.
Two of the six priests were chopped to death on the spot. Except for the high priest who could still stand, the rest were all scorched black and lying on the ground twitching.
Following closely behind is the most powerful means of destruction of the Revenge Storm, countless huge hailstones. They are the size of fists and are far inferior to the stones thrown by the kobolds, but the lethality is not the same. These hailstones are from several It fell from a height of 100 meters, and its shape was extremely irregular, full of edges and corners.
It is not uncommon for people to hit their bodies not only with bruises on their heads, but also with broken bones and tendons and split heads. Moreover, there is no possibility of escape because the hailstones are densely packed everywhere.
Unless you have a powerful shield that is strong enough not to be shattered or missed by the devastating hailstones, the sticky bone shield of the Kuo-Toa is not good at this kind of head-on collision, and it is often broken on the spot.
These kuo-toa people were just ignorant, not stupid. They quickly found an effective way to deal with it, which was to hold the corpses of the same type around them above their heads, which could help them block most of the hail attacks.
As for the moral concept of desecrating corpses, let alone not having it in their hearts, even if they did, they wouldn't care about it. Life-saving was their priority.
But the problem is, the enemy's attacks are not limited to these.
Along with the hail, there were dense thunderstorms, as many as fifteen or six.
And it doesn’t stop for a moment.
Every six seconds, there will inevitably be a round, and a dozen Kuo-toa people who have survived the hail hammer will fall to the ground twitching.
At this time, most of the Kuo-Toa people were blinded by the violent storm and could not see the situation outside at all.
The thunder that keeps falling every round is no longer the power of the Vengeful Storm, but from other druid casters.
This is the power of four five-ring summoning thunderstorms and twelve three-ring thunder summoning techniques.
In a short period of time, when only a small number of elite soldiers could be mobilized, Gavin naturally gave priority to summoning back spellcasters with spells of mass destruction.
What I didn't expect was that these Kuo Tao fishmen actually had a group attack. They almost didn't trap the kobolds in Weizemei New Village, but they also allowed Zalanda's nine-ring spell Revenge Storm to reach its maximum power.
The violent storm rolled up by the revenge storm came and went quickly. After it dissipated, with the thunder and lightning still flashing, those who saw the situation clearly couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
The corpses of the Kuo Tao fishmen who had gathered together to carry out crazy sacrifices were scattered all over the place. Less than a third of them were still standing. None of them were alive, and their bodies were more or less injured.
Many of them just stood there stupidly, looking at everything around them with a pair of bulging fish eyes, as if they couldn't believe what they saw.
This is completely inconsistent with the oracle they received. Didn't the oracle say that they would win this battle and make their gods more powerful and glorious than ever before? Why did it become completely one-sided and massacred?
"Flag Guards, follow me to kill! The main thing is to kill, and the supplement is to snatch the corpses. Don't leave me a corpse on the ground, bring them all back to me." Following Gavin's order, the Blood Oath flag above his head waved, A flash of magic flashed, and a group of five hundred hobgoblin wolf cavalry jumped out of thin air next to Yewen Pond.
This is naturally the activation of the special ability Blood Oath Summoning on the Blood Oath Banner. Each of these hobgoblin wolf cavalry is regarded as two people, so the number of summons is halved. However, in view of the completely different mobility between cavalry and infantry, in fact, Yes, it's a relatively profitable business.
The reason why Gavin chose to summon hobgoblin wolf cavalry below extraordinary level instead of hobgoblin giants above extraordinary level is because what he needs is their mobility and quantity, because his main purpose is not to kill the enemy, but to rob the ground. corpse.
Don't forget that the enemies they face are a group of necromancers who are good at manipulating corpses. Leaving corpses here is definitely a huge hidden danger.
Their actions are not slow, but their enemies are not slow either.
"Gavin... Gavin... Gavin, I finally found you, I'm going to kill you!" With a roar, black mist gathered crazily on the battlefield, and an extremely terrifying figure appeared from nowhere. Some emerged slowly, and the other party was traveling through the shadow plane.
At just the first glance, Gavin was sure that she was the terrifying corpse undead that Selmen had described before. She was indeed extremely terrifying and could give those who saw her nightmares.
Let’s not talk about the shape for the moment. Just talking about the body shape can make people feel frightened. Its size has definitely reached the super giant level.
What is the concept of super giant?
Only the more powerful ancient dragons will have this size, such as red dragons, blue dragons, gold dragons and silver dragons. Like white dragons, they will only be giant when they grow to their limit.
If converted into numbers, the length or height would be over twenty meters and the weight would be over twelve tons.
Twenty meters doesn’t sound like an exaggeration, but when converted into real objects, it makes more sense. Generally, a six- or seven-story building is twenty meters high, and an extended heavy truck that pulls goods is also It's like fourteen or five meters.
The figure in front of me is far more than twenty meters tall. Without a reference object, there is no way to accurately measure how tall he is.
Her upper body is not too exaggerated. It is the upper body of an elf with a height of six or seven meters. Of course, this exaggeration is for her lower body. If taken apart, it is amazing enough. It is the tallest in Weizemei New Village. That building is only this high.
The lower body is extremely bloated, like a hill. Because it is too heavy, the eight spider legs cannot fully support it, so most of the body is dragged directly to the ground.
Whether it is the upper body or the lower body, they are all made up of corpses stacked together, not only of various humanoid creatures, but also of various animals. They are not inlaid in disorder, but all the faces are Facing outward, both his eyes and mouth were open, staring blankly at everyone, as if he wanted to ask them for help, and also seemed to want to persuade them to join his ranks.
