Chapter 90: Monster spawning and leveling
Next, the city wall where Gothe and the others were located experienced several waves of attacks from dire bats.
However, as the battle continued and the number of shots increased, everyone gradually became familiar with the attack mode of the dire bat, and became more and more comfortable in dealing with it.
Meanwhile, the mage apprentices of the seventh team took another six or seven shots.
Gaode participated in three of them, and successfully killed three dire bats by relying on the longer range and superior lethality of [Flame Arrow+].
Including the initial shot, Dire Bat's origin acquisition progress has reached impressively (4/7).
The situation looks stable and improving.
But change often happens in an instant.
Another new wave of ferocious bats rushed towards the section of the city wall guarded by Gothe.
As for this wave of dire bats, the four at the head were obviously much larger than the other dire bats, and the fur on their bodies was also darker in color.
The arrows shot by the archers landed on these four ferocious bats, and they bounced away as if they were touching gold and iron, unable to penetrate their bodies at all.
"It's a level 1 dire bat!" Li Luo frowned.
Level 0 dire bats can still be injured by ordinary arrows.
Once a Leyline creature reaches level 1, it will have extremely strong physical resistance.
Basically, only spells or alchemy weapons can cause substantial and threatening damage to it.
Dang Dang Dang!
These four ferocious bats charged head-on into the battle, bravely resisting the rain of arrows, and rushed out of the way.
Seeing this scene happen, the expressions of all the mage apprentices in the seventh team changed.
They don't think their tricks can threaten level 1 Leyline creatures.
Moreover, even if there are no level 1 dire bats, the number of dire bats approaching the city wall, led by the four leading level 1 dire bats, is already close to one hundred.
This amount is beyond their ability to stop.
This is the first time that the seven teams have encountered a crisis during this defense.
"What should I do?!" Some people with poor psychological quality have already begun to get confused and are at a loss.
This kind of panic is easily contagious.
"Don't be afraid, a high-level mage will take action!" Lilo noticed the change in everyone's mood in time and shouted to "stabilize the morale of the army."
At this moment, as Li Luo's voice fell, Gothe felt an invisible and powerful energy fluctuation, suddenly pouring out from the tower behind.
On the city wall, a tower is built at regular intervals, and the tower is loaded with alchemical weapons.
Of course, Bremen City is obviously not prepared to use alchemical weapons in this defense.
It is the mage who takes action!
Gothe turned around subconsciously and vaguely saw a figure wearing a robe flashing past in the fortress-like tower that stood on the city wall.
The next moment, in front of the section of the city wall defended by the seventh team, a cloud composed of countless tiny daggers formed on the path of the dire bat swarm.
These daggers shimmered with cold light, circling, dancing and rotating in this fixed area, drawing out tracks, like a storm of daggers blowing up.
Dire Bat couldn't react in time and faced the cloud of daggers.
The dagger drew silver tracks on the Dire Bat's body.
Whether it is the four level 1 dire bats at the head or the nearly a hundred level 0 dire bats, there is no difference at all in front of these rotating magic daggers.
Each bat was hit by several daggers at the same time.
Every dire bat that was hit let out a shrill scream.
Their bodies were torn apart by the cuts of the dagger, with blood and flesh splattering.
They tried to run away or dodge, but the speed and number of daggers far exceeded them, spreading at an extremely fast speed.
Soon, the air was filled with the blood and remains of dire bats.
This wave of offensive that made all the mages of the seventh team pale was easily solved.
"Is this the true power of the spell?" Gothe murmured to himself: "I just don't know which level of spell it is, one level, or two?"
He finally understood why the 0-level spell, which in his eyes was clearly powerful, was given the slightly ridiculing title of "trick."
It’s not because the 0-level spells are too weak, but because the upper-level spells are too powerful!
The gap between a mage and a mage apprentice is still too big.
After this wave of the most threatening offensive was dealt with by the high-circle mage hidden in the tower, the situation became stable again, and no more accidents occurred.
These ferocious bats that flew out of the forest were finally basically defeated after the offensive lasted for nearly half an hour.
The remaining scattered Dire Bats could no longer organize a large-scale offensive, and scattered into the wild forest outside the city and disappeared.
The battle is over.
Gothe looked at the bat corpses and broken wing fragments on the ground outside the city wall, and then looked at several injured city guards on the city wall, and couldn't help but sigh.
This dire bat is already an excellent earth-line creature to deal with.
Because they have no long-range attack methods, let alone extraordinary strength. They are just physically stronger and can withstand the rain of arrows and attack the city wall with every life.
It feels a bit like a moth chasing a flame, seeking your own death.
But even so, many city guards were still scratched and bitten by the "fish that slipped through the net" that broke through the defense line but the mage had no time to deal with.
According to what Lillo said, dire bats carry fatal diseases, so one can imagine what will happen to these scratched city guards.
At least half of your life.
But fighting is like this. It is almost impossible to survive without getting injured.
"We were all strangers before this, and have never fought together before. It is already pretty good that we were able to complete the mission without too many casualties in the first battle."
But the leader of the team, Lillo, was obviously very satisfied with the result and directly praised it.
This is very useful to the seven teams of mage apprentices who have been put together temporarily.
Having received both real material rewards and a certain emotional value, everyone is in a good mood.
"The situation during the defense of the city is complicated and urgent, and it is impossible to accurately count the number of ferocious bats you participated in killing"
Lilo said this, paused, his eyes swept over everyone's faces, and finally said:
"But don't worry, the additional rewards agreed in advance will definitely not be missing from you."
"Later, you go to the registration staff to report the number, and we will calculate the rewards for you according to the number of kills you reported."
"I believe that everyone will not falsely report." Li Luo said with a smile.
In fact, even if it is a false report, there will not be much difference.
After all, a second-class mage apprentice can only cast a dozen or so tricks and his magic power will be exhausted.
In the city defense battle just now, although no one would count how many tricks each mage apprentice cast, they still knew the approximate number.
Hence, even if everyone is being cunning and over-reporting, they don’t dare to over-report too much.
But when Li Luo said this, he seemed very generous and made everyone feel extremely comfortable.
As for Lillo, the money was not paid by him anyway, it was all paid by the government.
Even if the money is not distributed to the "wild mages" involved in the defense, it will not fall into his pocket.
In this case, why not be generous, at least you can get a good deal from everyone.
