Half Elf Ranger

Chapter 42 Fierce Battle

There are not too many words in the war between races. When the eyes of the two sides meet, the cruel fighting begins!

——"Three-ring divine art: Summon Lightning Art!"

Druigst's long silver-white hair fluttered, and he gently waved the magic weapon in his hand. He quickly finished chanting the spell full of hatred. In the dark night sky, a thick thundercloud area condensed over the crowd of wolves.

Click!

Accompanied by an ear-shattering bang, a faint blue lightning, emitting a dazzling light, fell into the place where the crowd of wolves was densest.

The five or six Jackals who charged at the front couldn't react in time, and were instantly enveloped by lightning.

Their whole bodies were obviously paralyzed for a moment, and then they danced with faint blue electric arcs, and fell to the ground with a scream.

The gnolls rushing from behind had their scarlet eyes flashing, without a trace of fear, they roared and continued to rush forward.

Click!

Under the guidance of Gust, a blue lightning bolt descended from the thundercloud area above the head, and the few gnolls who had just filled the vacancy struggled and fell to the ground amidst crackling noises.

Seeing that the first batch of charging gnolls had all reached the attack range, Gerst continued to swing the magic weapon.

A series of dark blue lightning flashed dazzling white light, struck down mercilessly, and exploded in the crowd of wolves.

Although the faint blue arc wasn't deadly enough, the paralysis effect attached to the gnolls made most of them lose their combat effectiveness.

"Fire arrows!"

As soon as the words fell, the ten double-shield guards blocking the front immediately tightened their shields and stood ready.

Immediately behind the double shield guards, the five heavy crossbowmen stood up and pulled the triggers.

When they shot all the crossbows in their hands, they quickly squatted under the cover of the double shield guards, and skillfully pulled the small winch of the heavy crossbow to reload the arrows.

In the gap of filling the arrows, five heavy crossbowmen immediately filled the gap, and continued to maintain continuous fire suppression.

Whoosh whoosh!
Accompanied by the alternating crossbows losing their suppression, the jackals rushing to the front let out mournful wailing, and fell down one after another like cutting wheat.

Before reaching the distance of 100 meters from the double shield guards, the group of jackals were all dead.

Ow!

A loud wolf howl pierced the deep night, as if commanding a group of wolf men to attack.

Thorn hid in the jungle behind, and when he saw the reappearance of the gnoll, he quickly realized that something was wrong.

These dozens of jackals were all carrying bamboo baskets filled with stones, and holding a rope with a leather pouch in the middle.

It's a sling!

Thorn's face changed, and then he saw the group of gnolls put the stones from the bamboo basket into the leather pouch, and then grabbed the ends of the rope and spun them quickly above their heads.

When the rotation speed of the ropes reached the maximum, one of them was released immediately, and the fist-sized stone flew towards the players guarding Talan Village with a whistling sound.

If the sling is used as a weapon alone, its effect is not obvious, but when dozens of people shoot in salvo, the densely packed stones with strong wind can pose a deadly threat.

This is a simple long-range weapon that the higher its strength attribute is, the more powerful it will be. It is the most effective long-range suppression method for jackals who are not good at making weapons.

"Double shield guards cover! The heavy crossbowmen retreat immediately!" When the jackal slinger appeared in sight, Gester obviously knew their methods long ago, and immediately commanded.

bump bump!
The stones fell continuously, almost all of which were skillfully blocked by the shields in the hands of the double-shield guards.

However, many of them passed through the gap and shot into the rear. Several retreating players had no time to dodge and were hit hard in the back.

The powerful impact directly spurted out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground, unable to get up for a long time.

One of them was hit on the head even worse. His unprotected head was cut open in an instant. The shocking wound made him lie motionless on the ground with blood gushing out.

But soon several players lying on the ground and howling were dragged back to Talan Village by several people holding shields.

bump bump!
The Gnoll's slinger's attack did not stop at all, and the fierce stone smashed through the air and hit the steel shield with a series of bright sparks.

After all the heavy crossbowmen in the back row had withdrawn, these stones appeared to be no threat in the eyes of the heavily armed double shield guards.

Almost even the armor of the Double Shield Guard could not be rubbed.

However, the Jackal also took advantage of the suppression of the stone's firepower, and when the stone was about to be exhausted, he rushed to the double shield guards and started a close-range fight.

bump!bump!bump!
The attack power displayed by the double-shield guards holding shields in both hands is still very powerful. With the slapping of the stainless steel shield and the spiked round shield, the attack of the wolf man became pale and weak in an instant.

In the Gnoll tribe, most of the Gnolls who have not taken office have a challenge level of only level 3.

Therefore, the ten well-equipped Transcendent players were able to cope with the siege of the Wolf man with ease.

——Three-ring spell: "Fireball!"

At this moment, Anderina waved her staff lightly, and a dark red fireball the size of a washbasin reflected her beautiful face red.

Then it pierced through the thick night, smashing into the jackals rushing up continuously with a whistling sound.

Accompanied by a loud bang, in the narrow passage, a scorching fireball exploded among the crowd of wolves.

Flesh and limbs were flying, and even the thick hair of the wolf man who had escaped his life was swept by the aftermath of the flames, instantly ignited, and then turned into a burning man, rolling and struggling on the ground.

Roar!
The Jackals, who had failed to attack several times, looked at the corpses strewn all over the passage in front of them, arousing their primitive wildness even more. With an angry roar, they rushed towards the shield wall of the double-shield guards like crazy.

At the same time, many gnolls entered the dark forest, planning to outflank them from both sides.

"Defensive formation!" Gerst commanded calmly when he saw the gnolls surrounding him from the front and from both sides of the jungle.

When the ten double-shield guards saw the wolf man approaching quickly, they immediately made a half-arc plastic surgery. In order to prevent the wolf man from rushing into Talan Village, they retreated slowly and blocked the entrance of Talan Village.

Immediately afterwards, the players holding the heavy crossbow also immediately entered the formation, and the precise heavy crossbow continuously shot and killed the gnolls from the front and the left and right sides.

When the Gnoll dashed in front of the double-shield guard with the crossbow, the player holding the heavy crossbow immediately put away his weapon and drew the long sword at his waist.

Then, taking advantage of the violent blocking and impact of the shields of the double shield guards, he kept beheading the nearby gnolls from the gap.

In this way, with the cooperation of more than 20 players, the nearby gnolls fell one after another.

Swish!
At this time, a slight sound of footsteps passed slowly from Thorne's hiding place.

Gnoll rogue!
puff!

Thorne suddenly appeared, and the gnoll wanderer who was caught off guard was instantly stabbed in the center by a long sword, and was kicked to the ground by Thorne.

Roar!
Another black shadow appeared from behind Thorne, and Thorne quickly bent down, narrowly avoiding the mace's sweep, and immediately distanced himself.

——Desert Wind Sect (strike): Flame Star!

The dancing flame of the short sword in Thorn's left hand exploded in the night, bursting out with dazzling white light.

The Gnoll wanderer let out a cry of pain.

Thorne took the opportunity to slash out with a sword, and the head of the gnoll wanderer fell to the ground.

It is impossible for a tribe that can cultivate Gnoll wanderers to be so capable.

After beheading the Gnoll, Thorne looked thoughtfully at the Gnoll who was about to be crushed by the Double Shield Guards.

Then, as if thinking of something, he immediately walked into the village.

There is only one exit from Talan Village, which is the narrow passage through which the fierce fighting took place at this time.

Other places are either surrounded by dense forests or blocked by nearby cliffs.

But these places are not completely impossible to pass, it's just more laborious.

And the two gnoll wanderers who were about to pass by him just now obviously knew the surrounding situation long ago.

So Thorn immediately rushed towards Gust, if he was rushed into Taran Village by the jackals, he would be in trouble.

After all, not all the players brought by Gust are capable of fighting, and there are many life professions.
