Necromancer: A New Era

The strong orc warriors slowly approached with heavy steps and uniform shouts.

“Hoo-ha!---Hoo-ha!---Hoo-ha!”

Their voices were like ancient war drums, deep and shocking, echoing across the vast wilderness. The shouts, like the call of the wild, stirred up a murderous atmosphere in the air.

These orcs from different races were all burly, with muscles bulging like sculptures. Although they were dressed in simple clothes, the weapons in their hands exuded a fierce and fierce light. The big clubs, axes, and maces were enough to scare the enemy. At the back of the team, the orc warriors held javelins thicker than human arms, like a moving forest, which was daunting.

Meanwhile, on the solid walls, human soldiers were ready for battle, their eyes were firm, and although many of them had never fought against orcs, they did not flinch in the face of this violent enemy, but instead held their weapons tighter.

Tang Yue, the young wizard, also witnessed such a large orc army for the first time. He took a deep breath, calmed down his excitement, and began to think about how to maximize the use of his magic power. In this seemingly evenly matched battle, every bit of magic power was crucial.

While he was thinking, the orc army had already prepared for the charge. As the sound of the horn changed, the orc warriors in the front row began to run wildly, howling as if they wanted to vent all their fear and anger. The orcs in the front carried ladders, while the strongest group of orcs carried huge battering rams, determined to break through the human city in one fell swoop.

The orc general wielded his great axe, shouted loudly, and commanded this wild army. On the wall, the human general was not to be outdone. He raised his sword high and shouted, "Catapults, fire! Archers, get ready!"

As the order was given, the catapults that had been prepared began to launch huge rocks covered in fuel. These rocks dragged long tails of flames and flew towards the charging orc troops like burning meteors. Every impact was accompanied by screams and splattered blood, and dozens of orcs were knocked away or crushed by the impact of the rocks.

However, this did not stop the orcs' charge. They continued to charge forward like crazy beasts. Seeing this, the human general shouted, "Archers, shoot freely! Mage Corps, shoot at the engineering equipment!" Suddenly, arrows rained down like a weave. The mages also began to chant spells, and beams of magic were shot at the siege equipment. The battle officially kicked off.

Under the fierce attack of arrows, the orcs fell down in groups like wheat stalks in autumn. Most of them, even with feathered arrows piercing their bodies, still roared, stepped on the corpses of their companions, and moved forward bravely.

Tang Yue, using the first-level necromancy magic Shadow Arrow, calmly selected his targets. Every time he cast his spell, several orcs carrying ladders fell. However, these fearless orcs seemed endless. Every time one fell, another would roar and fill in.

Suddenly, the orcs' long-range archers from the rear entered the battlefield, and the javelins in their hands poured down like a black rainstorm. The general's shouts echoed over the battlefield, and the soldiers tried their best to dodge, but countless people were still pierced by the sharp javelins. Their wailing and the sounds of falling to the ground intertwined, forming a tragic picture.

Just as the human soldiers were catching their breath, the second wave of javelin attacks arrived. At this point, humans were no longer able to stop the orc warriors climbing up the ladders. At this critical moment, Tang Yue stepped forward and used mysterious undead magic to summon a large number of skeleton warriors holding cold weapons. These fearless warriors quickly filled the gaps in the battle line and fought a desperate battle with the orcs climbing up.

As the war continued to escalate, the number of casualties on both sides continued to rise, and the corpses on the battlefield piled up like waves of wheat. However, with the support of a steady stream of reinforcements, the humans finally stabilized their position and resisted the first wave of tentative attacks by the orcs. When the drums of war gradually faded away and the smoke cleared, 30,000 orc corpses were left on the battlefield. They paid a painful price for this attack.

After the battle, the general defending the city did not look happy. Having fought against the orcs many times, he knew that this was just an attack by the cannon fodder troops. Without the help of the mage troops, it would not have been so easy.

As if not wanting to let humans get any rest, a hundred thousand powerful orc warriors of the orc tribe gathered in front of the battle.

As the sky gradually darkened, the newly emerged orcs on the edge of the dark battlefield looked particularly tall and terrifying. They were far from the 30,000 orcs before, like a nightmare that had stepped out of the abyss. Most of them belonged to those powerful races with great reputations. Ordinary attacks on them were as powerless as itching. Everyone knew in their hearts that a more tragic and difficult battle was slowly beginning.

On the city wall, a burst of hurried footsteps sounded, and a new batch of reinforcements hurriedly arrived to fill the gap left by the battle. In a corner of the city wall, Tang Yue sat cross-legged quietly, his eyes closed, as if he was in deep thought, or as if he was listening to the wind in the distance. A faint fluctuation of magic power lingered around him, indicating that he was doing his best to restore the consumed magic power. He seemed to be oblivious to the roars and roars of the orcs around him, because he knew that as a mage, even if he could restore a little more magic power, it would play an immeasurable role in the next battle.

At this moment, the figures of two fox priests slowly emerged in front of the battle. Behind them were 100,000 beast warriors, who raised their weapons high and roared deafeningly. Their eyes flashed with bloodthirsty fanaticism, as if they could not wait to join the next battle. As the priests gently waved their staffs, two huge red mists rose quietly, covering the entire army. In the mist, the eyes of the beast warriors gradually turned blood red, and their breath began to become violent and chaotic, as if they had been completely eroded by some terrible power.

This battle is destined to be a fight to the death.

On the towering walls built by humans, two bishops from the Holy Land Empire from afar, wearing white robes with gold edges, descended like gods from heaven. They had solemn faces, put their hands together, and chanted ancient spells. As the spells were chanted, a mysterious and holy light filled the air.

This was the 8th level "Holy Light Prayer" of the large-scale legion divine art. Its power flowed slowly, like warm sunshine, enveloping every brave warrior on the wall one by one. Under the shining of this holy light, the warriors' eyes became more determined, as if they had been blessed with supreme power.

At this moment, Tang Yue also slowly opened his eyes from meditation. He stretched out his palm and felt the power surging in his body. The power that had been lurking deep in his body was now like a giant beast that had been awakened, surging.

"My life force has been strengthened, the pain has been reduced, and my mental concentration has also improved." Tang Yue muttered to himself, with a surprised smile on his face, "And the increase in strength is really amazing! The amplification effect of this 'Holy Light Prayer' is indeed extraordinary!"

With the continued blessing of the holy light, the morale of the soldiers on the city wall was high. They seemed to have become an invincible army, ready to meet the upcoming battle.
