Chapter 1479: Fierce Fighting and Control
In the center of the extremely spacious and dark space, magical light and sharp blade light were intertwined everywhere, and the earth-shaking bombardment sound resounded through the world, causing waves of fierce energy gusts to continuously stir in the air.
Not only in the center of the space, but also everywhere in the space, there was smoke everywhere, and the remaining fire was not extinguished. Many places were densely populated with giant pits that were either still burning or frozen, and the broken skeleton fragments of the undead were scattered all over the ground. This was the scene after a large-scale wide-area magic attack.
The Lich Leader stood on the command platform at the core of the undead army, looking at the hundreds of sixth-level golem puppets summoned by Lei Xiao who were fighting back and forth with the sixth-level undead that were charging forward. His sunken dry nose was crooked with anger and he looked extremely annoyed.
He never imagined that the human emperor, who was just an ant, would actually use so many powerful trump cards one after another, repeatedly rewriting the inevitable death situation that was originally without any suspense!
While feeling angry, the Lich leader reorganized his formation and decisively issued an order to attack in unison. As long as the remaining troops were all attacked, even if the human emperor had three heads and six arms, he would surely die this time!
"Human ant, this leader will definitely crush you to pieces!"
The lich leader's withered face twisted and he roared madly.
With a wave of his hand, the undead army that had surrounded Lei Xiao and his group flew out in groups, all with murderous intent, and approached the center of the encirclement at a high speed.
But just as the undead army began to attack, something strange happened.
Suddenly, a large number of giant magic circles appeared in the air where Lei Xiao was. In the glittering magic circles, hundreds of magic dragons of different colors quickly took shape, roaring and flapping their wings. The momentum was extremely astonishing.
After rising into the air one after another, the giant dragons immediately swooped down towards the Undead camp, and streams of deadly dragon breath sprayed rapidly towards the ground, drawing one destructive fire line after another.
Because these summoned dragon golem puppets came too suddenly, the Undead army, which had no air defense preparation at all, was in chaos again. The liches in charge of command were surprised and urgently adjusted their formations. After a long while, all kinds of spells and arrows covered the sky.
It has to be said that the attack power of the fifth-order legion is indeed amazing. With just the first round of magic and rain of arrows, at least hundreds of dragon puppets were smashed to pieces in mid-air and then dissipated in mid-air.
Then, several waves of intensive attacks covered the sky, and the dragon puppets fell down one after another again, making the sky soon return to calm.
This is not surprising. After all, there are hundreds of sixth-level liches and sixth-level undead in the opponent's camp. It is easy to defeat these dragon puppets, most of which are at the fifth level.
However, the dragon breath and attacks left by the giant dragon puppets still caused thick smoke to rise, making the entire battlefield even more filled with smoke.
"It's just a pointless struggle, you human ants, your death is coming!"
This time, even the lich leader himself flew out surrounded by his personal guards, his face full of ferociousness and contempt.
But he had only taken a few steps when his bloodshot eyes widened in surprise again.
In the center of the battlefield where the smoke was gradually dissipating, a large and neatly arranged army of golem puppets was slowly advancing. Their uniform pace and the vast momentum that filled the sky and the earth were enough to compete with the army of undead!
Needless to say, these are exactly the large number of fifth-level summoning scrolls activated by Lei Xiao.
As for those giant dragons at the beginning, they were just to attract the opponent's attention and buy time for summoning the army of golem puppets.
During this process, Lei Xiao also specially commanded the first batch of sixth-level golem puppets to advance forward. Coupled with the outward spread of the dragons, Lei Xiao had gained enough space and time.
Of course, it was not only the Lich Leader who was surprised, but also the pink hooded man around Lei Xiao and Old Gary and others.
Especially the man in the pink hood, he was so surprised that he was speechless. He never thought that Lei Xiao actually summoned a genuine fifth-level legion!
You know, if it were a first-rate force, it would not be difficult to summon such a legion, but the human race was still a tiny existence that had not yet set foot in the outside world, and the strongest legion was only at the second level!
Moreover, even if the strength of all the third-rate forces in the outer domain were added together, it would probably be impossible to easily come up with such a large number of fifth-tier summoning scrolls at once, right?
As for those sixth-level attack scrolls and sixth-level summoning scrolls just now, they are even more incredible!
"No wonder this kid dared to break into the opponent's lair. It turns out he came prepared!"
"I guess this kid must have inherited the legacy of the ancient human race, otherwise he would never have such a background!"
"By the way, I have found a genuine sponsor!"
While the pink hooded man was thinking about a lot of things, Lei Xiao was concentrating and began to command and summon the army to continue moving forward.
In fact, after upgrading the foundation of our foreign forces, plus a series of consumption and distribution to our strong men, Lei Xiao's fifth-level summoning scrolls were far from reaching such a number. After all, a considerable part of the fifth-level summoning scrolls were upgraded to the sixth level and used as trump cards.
The reason why Lei Xiao has such a sufficient supply is mainly because of the spoils in the Lord's Arena.
It has to be said that each of these overlord-level lords in various sectors is extremely wealthy and powerful. It is precisely because of their existence that Lei Xiao’s foundation has reached what it is today.
Just when everyone was surprised, Lei Xiao had already commanded three teams of summoned archers and magicians to launch an offensive against the opponent's camp first.
For a moment, all kinds of magical lights and arrows covered the sky and whistled straight towards the enemy camp.
The difference between them and ordinary archers and magicians is that even though they are summoned golem puppets, these soldiers all have special skills. The archers either pull the strings madly like a crossbow to shoot energy arrows, or shoot ten arrows at a time. The magicians are like a machine gun, constantly waving their staffs to stir up energy gusts.
Therefore, even with a force of only 3,000 people, they were able to easily launch an offensive that would be difficult for three ordinary long-range legions to achieve.
"Defense! Defense!"
Faced with our sudden attack, the liches were caught off guard and had to control the undead to dodge as best they could, but large groups of undead were still nailed to the ground by dense arrows, or blown to pieces by dense explosions of magic.
After suffering another loss, the liches reacted quickly and immediately began to stop the counterattack. The necromancy and bone arrows and spears that exuded the aura of death came in overwhelming force, directly causing many of our golem puppets to shatter and fall to the ground, turning into nothingness.
Among them, especially the remaining sixth-level combat forces of the opponent, including the liches, opened fire at full power, and almost killed our fifth-level golem puppets in one move.
Seeing that he was not at a disadvantage, the lich leader's face turned ferocious again. While frantically launching a long-range counterattack surrounded by dozens of level six guards, he commanded the liches to reorganize their formation and began to attack again.
With the obviously more advantageous sixth-order power, it is obviously not difficult to break through our army!
In addition, the Lich Leader also sent a lot of sixth-order undead reinforcements to the first batch of sixth-order undead that were fighting hard with our sixth-order golem puppets. As long as they can wipe out our sixth-order combat power first, the opponent will still have the advantage!
"Human boy, the opponent's sixth-level combat power is a problem after all. It's time for me to take action!"
The man in the pink hood immediately saw through the other party's intention and nodded heavily at Lei Xiao.
"Don't worry, sir. It's not time for you to take action yet."
Lei Xiao remained calm and composed, directing the army's actions.
Lei Xiao clearly understood that although the pink hooded man was strong enough to crush ordinary sixth-level strongmen and could indeed greatly reduce his pressure, he should not forget that the demon had not yet appeared. If he consumed too much of the pink hooded man's power here, then our side would still be in great danger.
Therefore, unless it is absolutely necessary, he would not let the pink hooded man take action easily.
Judging from the current situation, the opponent does have an absolute advantage in the sixth-order combat power, and attempts to concentrate its superior forces to eliminate our sixth-order combat power first, but this does not mean that I have no other means of responding.
"Old leader, it's your turn."
Lei Xiao nodded at Old Gary and spoke.
"Your Majesty, I am already prepared!"
Old Gary understood, and with his concentrated control, a group of fifth-level cavalry hidden in the smoke broke through the fog and galloped straight towards the sixth-level undead who were attempting to reinforce.
For a moment, the sound of the animals' hooves constantly stamping on the ground shook the heaven and earth, and the momentum was extremely impressive.
Looking closely, these were also summoned fifth-order riding golem puppets, all of which had the appearance of heavy-armored cavalry and ground dragons, and were extremely similar to the ground dragon cavalry of the Cold Flame Kingdom.
Although there were only a few thousand of them, the majestic aura they exuded was in no way inferior to that of the dozens of sixth-order undead flying over.
Especially those faces that look like sculptures and are wearing helmets, which give people a strong sense of oppression.
As for why Old Gary was also able to command, it was naturally because Lei Xiao gave these summoning scrolls directly to the latter to activate them. Only with a clear division of labor can we maximize our strength.
"Kill those stone cavalry!"
Following the order from the lich leader, dense bone spears, bone arrows and other long-range attacks fell from the sky and came towards our cavalry.
"Old man, it's your turn!"
Noticing this scene, Lei Xiao immediately nodded to Fleming again.
"As you command, Your Majesty!"
The old dragon slayer, who had been ready for a long time, activated the green magic scroll in his hand, and a gust of wind immediately whistled towards the bone arrows and bone spears in the air.
Wherever the strong wind passed, the bone spears and bone arrows condensed by necromancy disappeared into thin air, and most of the arrows and javelins were blown away. Only ordinary magic attacks fell on the cavalry's camp. Although some losses were caused, it was far from the extent of serious damage.
The cyan magic scroll activated by Fleming was originally just a sixth-order auxiliary scroll of the wind system, but it incorporated the power of the former that could dissolve necromancy, so it was not surprising that this happened.
"Good boy, it turns out you had anticipated all this! Lord Kuibin is still worried about you... and your money!"
Seeing Lei Xiao calmly resolving the opponent's attacks one by one, the pink hooded man's face hidden in the shadows showed a hint of surprise again. Although his strength was far superior to the former, he knew nothing about large-scale battlefields and even felt overwhelmed.
From this, we can see how surprised Lei Xiao was when he calmly commanded and even predicted the opponent's actions. In his power, perhaps only those experienced pillars of the country have such command ability! After all, this ability to control the battlefield is not something that everyone can have!
In a flash, while Fleming had neutralized most of the opponent's attacks, the cavalrymen had already collided head-on with the flying sixth-level undead.
boom! boom! boom! boom! boom!
Deafening collision sounds continued to ring out. Facing those sixth-order undead with strong energy barriers, our fifth-order golem puppet that was in the front was smashed to pieces in an instant, and then the second and third ones, and there was still no suspense.
Accompanied by continuous roars, it didn't take long before the energy barriers of the sixth-level undead began to thin visibly, until they were completely shattered and then pierced by the spears of the golem puppets.
When the dust settled, although the golem puppets commanded by Old Guy were all restored to energy particles, the sixth-level undead that attempted to reinforce were also defeated and no longer posed any threat.
"That damn human ant!"
Seeing that the precious sixth-level combat power that he had carefully cultivated was consumed like this, and Lei Xiao only paid some summoning scrolls, the Lich Leader not only got angry, but his dry lips also twitched.
And then, something even more devastating happened. Another cavalry force, even larger than the previous one, broke through the fog and headed straight towards his undead army.
At the same time, in other parts of the battlefield, the infantry golem puppets controlled by Youyou, Xiaojing and Xiaojie also met the other undead armies that were rushing up, and fought fiercely with them.
During this process, although the opponent's sixth-level combat power still had an absolute advantage, Lei Xiao's fifth-level summoning scroll seemed to be inexhaustible. Soon new golem puppets broke out of the fog, making the entire battlefield more and more intense.
Seeing that Lei Xiao summoned an army with just a wave of his hand, turning the enemy siege that was supposed to be fatal into a battle with equal strength, the man in the pink hood kept his mouth open in surprise, and the others also had a clear division of labor and cooperated even more closely.
Gradually, just as our side was getting stronger and the opponent was getting weaker, a sudden murderous intent emerged from behind Lei Xiao, making the atmosphere tense to the extreme. (End of this chapter)
