Chapter 89 Dire Bats
Seeing that everyone was already standing in their respective positions, Lilo clapped his hands, attracting the attention of the seven teams, and then said a few words:
"Let me tell you a few more words."
"The earth-line creatures we will face later are dire bats, mainly with 0 rings. , some powerful dire bats will reach level 1. "
"We only need to ensure that no level 0 dire bats will cross the wall we are defending and enter the city. Even if the mission is completed."
"If there are level 1 dire bats, don't worry, high-level mages will take action."
"The intensity of the attack by earth-line creatures this time is not high for the city of Bremen. The main reason is that there are too many dire bats. Most of the mages in the city are sent out to protect the surrounding villages and towns, so there is a shortage of manpower, so everyone needs to be summoned to participate in the defense."
For ordinary people, earth-line creatures are still extremely powerful.
Especially in the towns and villages surrounding the city of Bremen, there are no defensive measures that can effectively stop dire bats.
Residents from nearby villages and towns can also be transferred to the city of Bremen.
For the villages and towns further away, the city of Bremen can only send high-level mages to protect them.
As a large city, Bu Lai City has an extremely large number of surrounding villages and towns, so a large part of the official mages in the city were sent out, and then the unofficial mages in the city were summoned to participate in the defense.
"In addition, although dire bats are called bats, they are actually completely different from our common bats." Hitting and biting with teeth."
"They don't have any extraordinary power, so as long as you are careful, nothing will happen."
"But be careful, dire bats carry fatal diseases, be sure not to be scratched by them, otherwise it will definitely be your nightmare!"
"Also, we are all mage apprentices, with limited mana, and the spells we master are even more limited, so we cast spells conservatively, and the defense is mainly based on the city guards." Line, kill the dire bats approaching the city wall in a targeted manner. "
"Don't waste your mana, try to use every spell on the blade!"
"Do you understand?" Li Luo asked loudly.
"Understood!" Everyone nodded.
In the final analysis, this is just an attack by low-level earth-line creatures that does not pose much of a threat.
This kind of low-level city defense battle is still mainly composed of ordinary city guards, supplemented by mages.
Cost-effective and realistic - a trained archer can at least shoot dozens of arrows in one breath, how many spells can a mage apprentice cast?
Similarly, 0-level leyline creatures are not immune to cold weapon damage.
Hence this attack of dire bats, apart from the extremely large number which is a bit of a headache, there is actually nothing else worth noting.
"Here it comes!" After everyone on the city wall waited attentively for another ten minutes, Lillo reminded loudly.
There is no need for him to remind me at all.
Everyone has seen it. At the end of the line of sight, the line where the forest and the sky meet seems to be sprinkled with little ink at this moment.
The ink quickly spread out and turned into clouds of black mist.
Thousands of black mist poured out from the depths of the forest, accompanied by ear-piercing screams, covering the sky like dark clouds and rushing towards Bremen, a city located on the edge of a deep lake.
It was one huge bat after another, so many that it was difficult to count.
With the appearance of the dire bats, everyone quickly entered a fighting state.
The swarm of dire bats is getting closer and closer, their high-pitched screams echoing in a terrifying way.
The archers have lined up behind the fortifications, nodding their arrows and drawing their bows.
When the bat swarm finally approached the city wall and entered the range of the bow and arrow, the archers immediately launched an attack.
The arrows poured out like raindrops.
咻咻咻咻!
The sound of the arrow leaving the string and cutting through the air kept echoing.
The ferocious bats, each of which was as big as a horse, showed no fear in the face of the rain of arrows.
They waved their feather-covered wings like two shields, sweeping away arrows.
But with such a dense rain of arrows, it is absolutely impossible for the Dire Bat to completely stop it.
Hence, there will always be arrows that accurately penetrate the bodies of these bats.
But even so, it did not have much impact on the bat's behavior.
"These beasts don't have much meat on their bodies at all. The damage caused by a single arrow is minimal. It can only add up to a small amount or hit a vital point." Li Luo was not surprised when he saw this scene.
The rain of arrows poured out in waves one after another.
With the sound of shrill wails, a ferocious bat finally couldn't bear the attack and fell from the sky to the city wall.
Like a signal, as the first dire bat fell, one after another followed, falling like rain.
But the death of their companions did not frighten these earth-line creatures, but seemed to inspire their wildness.
They launched a suicidal attack on the city wall even more crazily.
Under such a crazy attack, even though the arrows were raining down, some fish still slipped through the net. Under the cover of their companions, they were lucky enough to break through the rain of arrows and approach the city wall.
This is the time for the mage to take action.
“Take action!” Lillo shouted loudly.
The seven teams of mage apprentices, who had been prepared for a long time, immediately showed off their magical powers, each aiming at a target and casting their own special spells.
With the fluctuation of magic power, acid, transparent blades, flames, and different spell effects appeared, attacking the dire bat.
The number of these ferocious bats that slipped through the net is not large, and because they still bear injuries from breaking through the siege of arrows - most of them have several or even dozens of arrows on their bodies, and the quality is not high.
Often just one spell is enough to completely defeat it.
This is where the mage's apprentice outshines the massive city guards.
Ten city guards cannot quickly kill a dire bat in one or two seconds, but the mage apprentice can.
Goth, who was mixed in the crowd, also immediately activated the spell model.
As the mana surged in his body, a dazzling red light burst out from his hand.
【Flame Arrow+】!
Under the control of his thoughts, the magic wave turned into a beam of blazing flames and spurted out, turning into a deadly flame arrow and heading straight towards a ferocious bat with more than a dozen arrows pierced through its body.
The flaming arrow drew a perfect arc in the air and hit the bat accurately.
Boom!
The explosive fire swallowed it up instantly.
The already wounded Dire Bat let out a sharp cry, fell from the air, and turned into a corpse.
It’s so simple!
In the suicidal siege battle of dire bats, they hardly make any evasive movements, they just rely on their numbers to rush forward.
Gold coin +1.
Dire bat origin +1/7!
In Gothe's eyes, what fell was not a bat, but money and experience!
This group of dire bats approaching the seven teams responsible for defending the city wall section is only seven or eight.
Not to mention taking action, some people in the seventh team had already wiped out this batch of ferocious bats before they even reacted.
Gaode can grab a "monster", which means he has quick reaction.
“We can only wait for the next batch.” Gaode suddenly thought that there were no monsters to fight. At the same time, he concentrated on getting ready to “rob monsters”.
His current mana is enough for him to cast seven tricks in one go.
If you can guarantee that you can kill a dire bat every time you cast a spell, you can just gather the origins of dire bats.
However, there is no room for error.
So Gothe must focus on choosing those with more serious injuries among the dire bats approaching the city wall to ensure a 100% kill rate.
There is still competition.
After all, for others, although killing the dire bat cannot obtain the source like him, the additional reward of 1 gold coin is also real.
They must also want to use the limited amount of spells to kill as many dire bats as possible.
It's better than a quick-sighted person.
Fortunately, [Fire Arrow], as an energy-shaping magic, not only has outstanding destructive power, but also has the most outstanding casting range among the magic.
The casting distance of 120 feet is enough to stand out from the crowd in magic.
