Chapter 11: Tragic
"I'll choose a good long spear," in a very calm tone: "and thrust it into your filthy flower!"
Steadily, Lin Tian pulled out the new sword stuck in the ground. In an instant, all the divine soldiers appeared around him according to their pre-set formation: The front row consisted of 40 sturdy dwarves, followed by 54 long spearmen. Due to height differences, only the 1.1-meter-tall dwarves could directly attack the enemy's lower body, while the 1.7-meter-tall long spearman, equipped with long weapons, could also directly attack the enemy's upper body through the dwarf troops. This batch of soldiers formed a dense and neat formation, appearing in the front row, even making close contact with some of the slave-catching team members who were closer to the front. Unlike the panic of the slave-catching team members, the dwarves and long spearman handed out their battle axes and long spears at the first moment, and several enemies died or were seriously injured instantly.
At the same time, 40 archers and 60 fairies in the back row acted simultaneously. They were summoned quickly and immediately followed the instructions to act.
The Huā Yāo launched a skill called "Bee Swarm" at the enemy, releasing a large number of bees that although did not have high damage, had a strong harassment effect, making it impossible for the slave-catching team to organize a decent attack in a short period of time.
As soon as the archers appeared, they were ordered by Lin Tianyan to concentrate their attack on Lei Ao, who was still rampaging. 40 dense iron arrows shot out in a surprise attack, leaving no room for Lei Ao to react or resist. The arrows instantly filled the bodies of Lei Ao and the little spirit. The little spirit died on the spot. May this poor child rest in peace. Death may be a kind of liberation for her!
Although the 5th-level swordsman, Leo, had a strong vitality and the warrior's iron armor defense was also high, but in this case, he himself had disarmed (he had previously taken off his protective leg guards for convenience), under the dense 3rd-level combat power (emphasizing again that the 2nd-tier divine soldier is equivalent to the mainland's 3rd-level combat power), especially his buttocks and lower body were taken care of by a certain house with a strong desire for revenge, being shot like a porcupine, his future happiness was gone, even if he was strong again, he would immediately be in a critically wounded state, this sinful guy had no high-level alchemy medicine, nor did he have my small bottle of red medicine, except for waiting for death, he could only suffer and struggle to survive... Retribution came so quickly!
However, Lin Tian didn't have time to deal with him for the moment. The enemy's 4th-level magician used a fire shield spell to get rid of the bee disturbance and a large fireball locked onto him, shooting straight at him. Similarly, Lin Tian's own large fireball was being prepared, although its target was indeed this enemy, but now he had been preempted, and dodging was clearly not in time...
Bang!
Mars splashed, the explosion of a 4th-level fireball made him feel a wave of heat. No way, just this little heat? How could the damage from a 4th-level magic be so bad? Gnashing his teeth, he threw the fireball at his opponent and took a closer look, only to find that it was a flower demon who had flown over on her own initiative, using her small body to block the fireball. Now she had turned into a charred corpse. Although he had already mentally prepared himself for large-scale casualties among his soldiers, he couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart at this moment and felt even more grateful to this loyal warrior who had saved his life.
A sharp whistling sound came, and another flower demon also actively blocked this fatal arrow. She was unexpectedly pierced through the chest by the sharp arrow, and her fragrance disappeared like jade shattered. The sneak attacker was none other than 4th-level archer Rio.
Being distracted on the battlefield is suicidal, Lin Tian realized this in this cruel battle.
He relinquished command of the troops and retreated quickly.
This is not giving up the fight or admitting defeat, but rather a calm consideration: The divine warriors have wisdom, they can judge for themselves based on the situation, and they are all experienced professional fighters with accurate combat instincts. These are not comparable to some otaku who has only read a little about military affairs. Letting him command them is undoubtedly letting an amateur command professionals, or rather, it's blind command! Just like earlier, Lin Tian angrily ordered all 40 archers to concentrate their attack on the level 5 warrior Leo, and while it was satisfying, the attacking power was undoubtedly excessive. Calmly estimating, 30 archers firing together would be enough to make him lose his combat effectiveness, and the other 10 attacks would be wasted. Another example is that all 60 bee swarms were released at once, causing chaos among the enemy in a very short period of time. However, the damage from the bees was small, and their main effect was to disrupt the mages' spellcasting.
You see, there's a longbowman on the field right now who was killed by a fireball released by an enemy wizard who had been stunned... For now, doing nothing is better than giving random orders! Of course, designating priority attack targets and ordering heavily wounded soldiers to retreat are still doable.
Lin Tian's main profession is a knight, which can provide troops with attack and defense bonuses, this is his huge value, otherwise why would a 2nd-tier dwarf equivalent to a 3rd-tier warrior be able to barely withstand the desperate attack of a 4th-tier enemy? And his secondary profession as a magician allows him to safely release magic in the rear. Keeping his own life safe is the best support for the troops.
Although he can also release attributeless magic arrows, without the four-system ability bonus, the damage of the magic arrow is not as good as the big fireball, so the certain house finally settled down and started to release the big fireball with all his might.
The battle was extremely fierce, although the divine soldiers had a numerical advantage (excluding the Huā Yāo troops, who were too weak in attack and defense, and basically annihilated when they joined the battle group. They themselves had great reserve value, so after releasing 1 wave of bee harassment, they took a defensive stance in front of the archers), but their average level was 1 level lower than that of their opponents, suffering from level suppression...
The bandits are a group of people. They are a bunch of desperados, you can say they're dirty, evil, but you have to say, they're brave and iron-blooded warriors, who have always gambled with their lives, launching a desperate impact on the forest of heaven.
The 40 dwarves in the front row suffered the greatest impact, and more than half of them had already been lost. Even if Lin Tian tried his best to use his mind to micro-control and rescue them from the line of death, why was it called the line of death? Because here, there was no retreat.
A dwarf had just killed the 3rd level warrior in front of him, and was about to be attacked again. Lin Tian only had time to use his mind to tell him to retreat, but the next second he was cut in half by a 4th level warrior; A long spearman had just taken aim at an enemy and stabbed through him, but was shot into residual blood by a stray arrow. Lin Tian timely used his mind to order him to retreat, but after a moment he gave up, this poor long spearman was locked onto by a fireball from afar and roasted into charcoal; However, at the same time, this 3rd level ruthless mage was also taken out by multiple precise iron arrows, and fell to the ground in defeat.
The archers, although they also lost a number of their own in the confrontation with the enemy's long-range troops, were fortunate to have the flower demon's sacrifice, which helped attract a lot of firepower and completely suppressed the opponent. As these ace shooters concentrated their fire, the high-level warriors and mages of the slave-catching team fell one after another, and the remaining 8 warriors collectively collapsed, preparing to flee in all directions. Faced with these despicable humans who toyed with intelligent life, Lin Tian did not intend to let them off, ordering his troops to disperse their formation and pursue and kill them with all their might...
The evil worm will be ended by me!
