Chapter 699 War of Defense, War of Annihilation
On the Suokai Mountain where the Sky Holy See is located, a large number of warriors and priests gathered at this time.
Priests naturally belong to the Holy See in the Sky, while only some of those warriors belong to the Holy See.
Others, some are believers of the Sky Holy See who came spontaneously, and some are mercenaries who were hired.
But at this moment, looking at the surging white snow below, many people's faces changed color. Previously, many people were confident when they saw so much power gathered on Suokai Mountain. However, when they truly saw the number of enemies, they truly realized that it had been rumored in private that the enemy troops were among the massive undead. What exactly does it mean and what kind of scene it is.
There are many people who have never seen the sea in their lives, and even have some vague concepts about the boundlessness of the sea.
However, Xanadu has reached the mountain, and the undead have already flocked to the top of the mountain from all directions. They are so densely packed that there is no gap to safely descend the mountain.
Now, they have no way out and can only fight to the death!
Facing the humans gathered on the top of Suokai Mountain, the undead were no longer as innocent as they had been along the way before. Orders came from above, and they wanted to kill every living thing on the mountain.
When the first skeleton approached the cordon and was hit by a magical bullet from a priest of the Sky Holy See, the battle to defend the Sky Holy See officially began.
Of course, the battle to defend the Holy See in the Sky is for the defending side on the mountain. For Yaojia and Lei Jiu, this is the appetizer for the big battle, the battle to annihilate the peripheral forces of the Sky God.
The power of the Sky Temple naturally includes not only the priests and temple warriors, but also the Golden Dragon Legion that Lei Jiu encountered back then, as well as the Thunderbird Legion, Manticore Legion and other air legions that Lei Jiu has heard of.
It can be seen from the protective effect of the God of the Sky that the God of the Sky should actually be called the God of Breeding of Air Units...
In short, among the many Holy Sees, the Knights of the Sky Holy See are basically the last ones, but the several aerial legions they control are quite powerful.
but...
It's not that the Skeleton Legion doesn't have an air force, it's just that they were always in the middle of the team during the march and didn't come up immediately when they launched the attack.
The Holy See in the sky has a powerful command system, with units of four types of attacks: short-range, medium-range, long-range, and air, cooperating in combat. At the point of contact, the skeletal undead were either stripped of their limbs or skeletons, or They were directly scattered all over the place, or their soul fire was scattered.
Although the individual strength of these skeletons is not weak, the defenders on the mountain are also incompetent. It is not surprising that after some cooperation, they achieved results.
For a time, the morale of the defenders increased a lot.
Just like the priest who has been boosting morale from behind said, No matter how many undead there are, it doesn't matter. They are just some dead bones. We can knock down as many as they come, so there is nothing to be afraid of!
Faced with the overwhelming momentum of the defenders and the magical bullets of swords, guns, shields, and magic bullets, the undead skeletons who took over their positions did not change or hesitate at all. They stepped forward and waved their bone knives.
Even if it is knocked down, as long as the soul fire is still burning and there is still a weapon in the bone hand, it will continue to slash at the enemy.
One by one, row by row, layer by layer, piece by piece, the endless white skeletons just move forward silently.
The defenders were shouting loudly to fight at first, but as time went by, their physical strength was greatly exhausted, and they no longer had the energy to shout, so they could only keep waving their weapons.
Knock down the skeleton in front of you.
If you can't defeat the other party, they will be defeated.
When the casualty rate of the frontline defenders began to increase significantly, the defenders began to rotate the defense line. The first echelon of the frontline retreated to eat and rest, and the second echelon moved up.
The senior management of the Sky Holy See divided the defense forces into four echelons. The first three echelons rotated defense, and the fourth echelon was responsible for firefighting and responding to emergencies.
The reason why the Sky Holy See chose to only guard the top of the mountain was to reduce the guarding area as much as possible so that there would be enough manpower for rotation.
After all, the undead can go without eating or resting, but humans can’t!
Soon, the air units of the Golden Dragon Legion and other defenders were moved back to the rear to rest, because they saw the air force of the Skeleton Army, slowly advancing towards Suokai Mountain with a force that covered the sky.
The skeletal battleships that looked like locusts one after another could not only be seen by the senior officials of the Holy See in the Sky, but also by every defender.
For a time, facing the seemingly endless number of undead and endless broken bones, the morale that had dropped a lot began to decline sharply again, almost to the point of stopping!
A shadow fell on everyone's mind, and many people began to ask the nearby priests, what can His Majesty, the God of the Sky, do, and when will he appear?
When the skeletal battleship approached the top of the mountain of Suokai, all the air regiments of the Sky Holy See took off to meet the enemy.
It's not that they don't want to rotate in batches like they did against the undead ground troops, it's just that... there are too many skeletal battleships coming over, and the number of their air units is much smaller.
You have to at least survive the first wave before you can talk about what happens next.
When tens of thousands of golden dragons rushed forward with hundreds of thousands of various large aerial creatures, countless colorful light spots lit up on the skeleton battleship. Looking closer, they were rows of necromancers on the battleship. ..The light emitted by the will-o'-the-wisp scepter in his hand.
Then... death ray, plague ray, corrosion ray, disintegration ray, weakness ray... and so on, countless ray attacks are like countless streams of light covering the head and face of the enemy.
Each skeleton warship is a complete combat unit, and the rays emitted from it have various functions, including weakening, interfering, and killing.
Compared with the Skeleton Sea on the ground, which has little technical content, the Skeleton Warship in the air has much better killing methods.
Especially when facing large air units, they seem to be very experienced.
Even the golden dragon with high magic resistance cannot withstand the blast of lethal rays after various weakening and interference, let alone other weaker creatures.
For a moment, blood rained from the sky. Before they could attack the enemy, the Sky Holy See's trump card, several air legions, suffered heavy losses.
Let the air force withdraw?
When the air force withdraws, what will happen to their heads?
The Pope of the Sky Holy See felt bitter in his heart and could only watch cruelly as the Holy See's ace continued to suffer casualties and pointless attacks, using his flesh and blood to withstand the enemy's firepower without being able to issue a retreat order.
At the same time, he was also praying, hoping that His Majesty, the God of the Sky, could complete the arrangement as soon as possible and receive the enemy's attack, so as to leave some seeds for the Holy See's future recovery.
In less than two hours, the Sky Holy See's ace, several air legions, were completely wiped out, making Lei Jiu look askance at the combat effectiveness of these skeletal battleships.
However, thinking that although this kind of skeletal battleship is more restrained against larger air units, its power will be greatly reduced when facing Huanghuang Island's small and flexible sword-headed silver shuttle swallows. Lei Jiu put his heart back in his stomach. inside.
The air force is dead, there is no protection above the head, and there is a fatal gap in the defense line of the Holy See in the sky. It can be foreseen that this annihilation war will be over soon...
