Archdemon

Chapter 109

The enemy was defeated, but the enemy's attack was in vain.

Huo Ling shook his head regretfully and did not continue to attack. Silver-level spells were still a great loss for him now.

He only had more than 2,000 magic points in total, and he could not release many silver-level spells at most.

In order to maintain a lasting combat power, he had to enter shallow meditation from time to time to restore magic.

As for drinking potions to speed up the recovery of magic, the situation has not reached this point yet. He is now in the central tower and is very safe.

One by one, the cloud ladders were blown up by the city defense crossbows on the way to the city wall. This huge loss made many gnoll nobles watching the battle tremble.

The value of the ladder itself is not expensive, even if a lot of magic materials are used in it, the value is within an acceptable range.

However, there is no magician among the Gnolls' spellcasters. They only have shamans, warlocks, and priests.

The most important thing in making a ladder is the defensive array. The Gnolls can only rely on recruiting mages of other races to make this kind of thing, or buy it from the Chamber of Commerce.

Every defensive array of a siege ladder is worth a lot of money, especially in the Gnoll Empire.

Every time a ladder is blown up, the next crossbow arrow will accurately hit the defensive array under the ladder, which makes it impossible for the Gnolls to rescue the array.

"Let them speed up the attack!"

Earl Warren clenched his claws, and his hands trembled with heartache over the huge loss.

"Woo woo woo!"

A short horn sounded, which was an order to speed up the attack, and it fell into the ears of the nobles commanding under the four walls.

These gnoll nobles had no choice but to order their private soldiers to speed up the pace of attack.

Next, the gnoll soldiers carried long ladders and began to attack the city wall. The ladders and long ladders gave the defensive shield of the ladders a break for a while.

The gnoll soldiers who had been beaten also found a way to vent. They held shields in one hand, bit their swords in their mouths, and climbed up the wall with their hands and feet.

After the gnolls began to climb the city, the defenders on the wall in front of them could not shoot these enemies because of the angle.

However, the soldiers on the side could give these gnolls a good attack because of the angle.

For a while, arrows fell crazily, and the gnolls lying on the long ladders had no chance to dodge, and casualties increased greatly.

Corpses kept falling from the long ladders, and sometimes they would knock down other gnolls crawling behind them.

"Boom!"

The two surviving ladders finally reached the city wall. The ladders were higher than the city wall, and there were several jackal warriors who were good at throwing short spears standing on the top.

The baffle in front of the ladder was lowered, and the hooks at the front were firmly placed on the city wall and fixed. The jackal soldiers who had been squeezed like cans in the ladders also rushed out howling at this time.

Taking advantage of the high position, they rushed straight to the defenders on the city wall.

The jackal throwers on the top of the ladder were not idle at this time, and threw the short spears in their hands vigorously.

"Ah!"

A garrison soldier held a mechanical crossbow and kept shooting. The fierce battle made his face red, and the short spear thrown by the jackal hit him.

The short spear carried fighting spirit, and with the huge force thrown by the jackal, it directly pierced a big hole in his chest and abdomen. The soldier only had time to scream before he died in battle.

The gnolls rushing out of the ladders were all powerful warriors, at least the gnoll warriors of the Black Iron Rank.

As the first warriors, they were better equipped, and their role was to defend the position on the top of the city and provide a foothold for their comrades behind them.

The first gnoll warriors held shields and knives, and some held one-handed axes. The huge power made them use these weapons more handy.

"Awoo!"

These gnoll soldiers have been crowded in the ladders for a long time, and now they are like vicious dogs out of the cage, howling excitedly.

What greeted them was not the weak garrison, but the fearless skeleton warriors and dark warriors.

The dark warriors in cold iron armor served as the defensive fulcrum on the city wall, waiting for these gnolls who climbed the city wall, and fighting the elite.

The soul fire under the cold iron helmet burned fiercely. The dark warrior rushed forward to meet the enemy's charge. With a swing of the iron shield, he knocked the fastest rushing wolf warrior into a daze.

The charging wolf warrior looked at the oncoming iron shield, which was green in the dark.

The iron shield of light was getting closer and closer in his view. With his sharp eyes, he could even see the mysterious runes on the shield.

"Bang!"

The iron shield hit the gnoll and made it retreat with its head raised. The gnoll warrior's teeth were knocked out. Several yellowed broken teeth flew out in the sun, with a trace of blood on them.

The dark warrior was relentless. After the shield hit, the sword continued to chop down like a shadow, slashing at another gnoll warrior.

"Ah!"

The gnoll warrior howled, not caring about defense at all, and the one-handed battle axe in his hand also chopped at the dark warrior.

The fighting spirit in his body burned violently, and this attack burst out with absolute power. The gnoll warrior was not afraid of fighting.

Moreover, before they rushed up, they had been cast by the shamans behind them, and the bloodthirsty curse, steel skin and other spells were blessing these warriors.

"Bang!"

"Crack!"

The counterattack of the jackal warrior and the attack of the dark warrior hit each other almost at the same time.

But the result was completely different. The axe that condensed the huge power of the jackal did not give him the expected effect. The battle axe chopped on the shoulder armor of the dark warrior.

It only left a deep scar on his armor, and it couldn't even penetrate the armor.

The battle axe is a sharp weapon for breaking armor. When facing such an enemy wearing armor, even if it can't penetrate the armor, the huge force brought by the attack can also cause internal injuries to the enemy.

But the dark warriors are not afraid of internal injuries. They are corpses. The cold iron armor is not their armor, but a part of their body.

The corpse under the armor is also different from the beginning. Now the inside of the armor is just a half-solid, half-illusory energy body burning with soul fire.

The attack of the jackal warrior did not play the role it should have.

But the attack of the dark warrior was not so easy to resist. The sword, under the blessing of the soul fire, burst out with great power.

Even though the jackal was wearing thick armor, this knife still cut his armor.

However, the armor of the jackal was still useful. Originally, this knife could cut the jackal warrior in two, but now it only cut a huge gap.

Although the jackal warrior was not cut in two, the sword blessed by the soul fire was enough to make him drink a pot. The wound after the soul fire attack was as if the vitality was absorbed, and the wound became gray.

The dark warrior pushed the jackal warrior with his chest and abdomen opened down from the ladder.

The passionate jackal was cut by a knife and fell from it. He could no longer stand up. He twitched all over and soon died completely.
