Accidentally reincarnated into a magic book

Chapter 317 Undead Defense Line

The embers of the flame fell, and Sophie stood on the city wall and knelt down on the ground almost collapsed.

All her clothes were burned. If it was an ordinary flame, Sophie could still guarantee that her clothes would not be harmed, but this magic has far exceeded her ability to bear, not only the clothes, but also Sophie's body and face Burn marks.

She knelt down on the ground, and the wounds on her body began to heal slowly. This was the power of the contract. Because of the contract with Alifia, she received the blessing of this healing power.

In the sky, the flames that exploded also dissipated, and the man named Silver Tooth Knight was also reduced to ashes in the flames.

"Lord Sophie!"

Seeing Sophie's appearance, the female captain of the elf guard quickly climbed up to help Sophie up.

"You... how come?"

Sophie said weakly, this is a battlefield, if there are other knights, Sophie may not be able to protect these soldiers at all.

"Master Sophie, the city gate, the city gate is about to be breached!"

The soldier said anxiously, originally Sophie was the commander of their defending troops, because of the battle with the knights, Sophie drove them away from the high part of the city wall, which also prevented them from defending the city wall .

So they turned to the next best thing and began to guard the city gate.

But the enemy was not idle, tens of thousands of troops had already lined up in front of the city gate, and as the flames dissipated, Saint-Ur's army launched a fierce attack.

Sophie looked under the city wall from the corner of her eye. Saint-Ur brought not only troops, but also a huge siege chariot this time.

"Tsk, there's still this hand."

The siege chariots kept crashing into the city gate, which was built with great difficulty. Although it was reinforced with pyroxene, it might not be able to withstand repeated impacts.

The elves and the flame ghosts held on to the city gate desperately, which prevented the enemy from breaking it in the first place.

Sophie stood up hard. She wanted to regroup the flames to fight back, but she didn't have the energy to do so.

"Boom! Boom!"

The city gate was constantly being hit, and now there were faint cracks on the seemingly unbreakable city gate.

"Only use that."

Sophie made up her mind and told the soldiers beside her: "Everyone is ready to evacuate the city gate and activate the undead line of defense!"

"As ordered!"

After hearing Sophie's order, everyone took action.

The horns sounded in the border towns.

The humming sound echoed throughout the town.

"Three! Two! One!"

Outside the city gate, all the soldiers exerted their strength together, only to hear a "boom", and the city gate could no longer hold on, and it shattered into pieces.

Almost at the same time, countless undead races burst out of the border city gate, and those undead races held rotten weapons and made strange noises.

"Come on!"

Saint-Ur's soldiers rushed into the city in one go, but they didn't expect that what they faced was not an enemy of flesh and blood, but bones.

"brush!"

Just when everyone was in doubt, the undead soldiers made a move. Those soldiers waved the rotten weapons in their hands. The seemingly fragile weapons actually carried deadly poison. The rusty blades of the weapons only scratched the soldiers' outer skin A, the contaminated flesh and blood immediately turned black, and then the whole body quickly rotted.

"Help! Help!"

Saint Ur's soldiers shouted for help, but the man grabbed his own neck and fell to the ground helplessly.

"The counterattack begins!!"

Seeing the soldiers of Saint Ur in chaos, in the border city, the bloody flame ghosts raised their long swords and started to counterattack.

The Yangui tribe's fighting ability is extremely strong. They used the undead soldiers as shields, mixed among them, and began to constantly wipe out the enemy.

That was the second line of defense that Honor envisioned, the undead line of defense.

The undead will not die and will not feel tired. Although the attack mode is single and the attack power is not strong, the victory is endless, so even facing the enemy's army can effectively defend.

O'Nor awakened the undead underground in the border city in advance, and he set up a wake-up signal. As soon as the horn of battle in the border city sounded, the undead would break out of the ground and start massacring the enemy.

This plan was entrusted to Sophie by Honor to carry out. Sophie didn't expect to summon the undead defense so quickly, but the speed of the enemy breaking through the city defense was far faster than she imagined. So embarrassed, Sophie was unable to deal with the enemy, so she had to use the last resort.

Taking advantage of the entanglement between the undead and the enemy bacteria, the elf soldiers quickly brought Sophie to the rear of the outer defense line.

Now the entire border city is in the preparation stage. The elderly and children have been taken to the maze to take refuge. The vacant houses built here have also become a barrier for them to fight.

"Master Sophie, are you okay?" The female elf in charge of the elf shooter came to Sophie's side. The female warrior used to be an elite of the dark elf clan. The second seat under the command.

"It's okay, but it may take a while to recover."

Sophie just felt that her brain was groggy, and now she just wanted to sleep.

But no, now is the critical time, and I was entrusted with the task of command by Master Honor, how could I fall down at this time.

The elves who knew healing magic quickly gathered around Sophie. They knew that Sophie had received a gift from that adult. As long as she had Sophie's power, they would have a great chance of winning this battle.

So even if it's just a little bit faster, they hope that Sophie will recover as soon as possible.

"How's the battle going?" Sophie asked in a low voice while lying on the makeshift bed.

"The Yangui tribe is mixed with the undead army, and they are in the process of annihilation. Lord Honor's combat effect is very remarkable. The undead will not attack the Yangui tribe, but they can entangle their opponents to a large extent, but..."

"Is it a matter of quantity?" Sophie murmured.

"Yes, the number of enemies is still increasing. If this continues, the entire border city will be surrounded. If the enemies attack with numerical superiority, the number of undead will be far from enough."

Even if this is the case, it is within Honor's expectation.

There are tens of thousands of soldiers in St. Ur, and the number of undead they can summon is not many, even including the corpses of wild beasts, it is less than a thousand. If there are a similar number of enemies, they may be able to win, but facing ten times Although the above enemies will greatly consume the enemy's strength, the enemy will eventually occupy the entire city.

"No, that's enough." Sophie nodded. They already knew that it was impossible to win by this method, so what they had to do was to delay as much as possible.

She looked at the deputy beside her: "Are the shooter troops ready? According to the plan, immediately use magic weapons to launch a devastating attack outside the city."
