Chapter 1381 Different Battle Situation
On the fierce battlefield filled with hostility, the exquisite figure that appeared behind the scarred lich was none other than Xiaojing, another stone elf who had just been subdued by Lei Xiao.
In an area with such a chaotic atmosphere, and with Xiao Jing's superb ability to conceal her whereabouts, the Scarred Lich naturally could not detect any clues.
The cold moon reflected Xiaojing's fair and delicate face, and her pair of slender ears were particularly eye-catching.
What was different from usual times was that at this moment, there was no more playfulness and cuteness on Xiaojing's face, only a hint of crazy smile.
The rapier in her hand caused the space to tremble, and she suddenly stabbed the scarred lich in the back where he was defenseless.
The sharp sword edge penetrated the energy barrier surrounding the opponent, until it completely pierced through the opponent's dry and evil body.
At the moment the tip of the sword pierced through the opponent's chest, as Xiao Jing's energy continued to be injected, the slender sword body suddenly vibrated violently, directly shattering everything around it.
In this way, although the damage caused by the rapier seems to be extremely limited, the powerful destructive power it can produce is enough to rival that of a longsword or even a broadsword.
As all this happened in the blink of an eye, the Scarred Lich was caught off guard and had no time to react, and a large hole appeared on his chest and back.
"Lich, I agree with you. This is a battlefield. If we only look at what's in front of us, we will lose our lives."
Seeing Xiao Jing successfully backstabbed, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.
Unlike most magic-type stone elves like Xiaojie, Xiaojing is a purely physical stone elf, and a sixth-rank assassination master who combines concealment and burst. His strength is even higher than that of Hui Lao, so he made this arrangement.
The current priority is to eliminate these liches who are commanders as soon as possible. Other ancient dark elf warriors, including Lianna, are doing the same thing.
Therefore, from the very beginning, I had no intention of engaging in a head-on confrontation with the Lich, and it was obvious that the other party also thought so, but failed to backstab me.
"You cunning ant, don't think you can kill me like this. I am a lich who has already died once!"
After suffering a severe blow, the scarred lich let out a sharp roar of anger, and his withered body exploded on the spot, setting off a fierce death storm.
Fortunately, Xiao Jing escaped after one strike and retreated to a safe place. Lei Xiao and Xiao Jie were under the protection of the absolute defense barrier, so no one was affected.
At the same time, a skeleton mage outside the explosion range trembled, and dry and wrinkled skin instantly grew on the white bones, just like the scarred lich.
This is a forbidden secret technique practiced by the lich, which can forcibly transfer the source of life to other undead who have long lost their vitality. In other words, the skeleton wizard has obviously become a special container.
"It's just a dying struggle."
Lei Xiao had obviously understood and anticipated the opponent's intentions. The absolute confinement formation was already following him like a shadow, and the gravity suppression and force unloading formations were working left and right, pressing down on the opponent like a giant peak.
"Boy, I will definitely kill you!"
The scarred lich was already in an extremely weak state after the transfer, and was then suppressed by the imprisonment magic circle, unable to move at all. He could only become helpless and furious, and his scarlet and angry eyes were still boiling with murderous intent.
At this time, Xiao Jing had reappeared like a ghost, and the rapier in her hand suddenly pierced through the opponent's head and nailed it to the ground.
The slender sword blade shattered the skull, and the hideousness and scarletness in the empty eye sockets turned into horrified fear at the last moment, and then completely dissipated, and everything returned to calm again.
"Sir, the other party has completely lost his vitality."
Xiao Jing flashed and returned to Lei Xiao's side, smiling.
"Well done, thank you for your hard work."
Lei Xiao casually touched the other person's head and looked around.
As expected, after the death of the Scarred Lich, a large number of the surrounding Undead soldiers with fangs and claws bared fell down tiltedly, and some of those who were fighting fiercely even fell apart directly, making the whole area suddenly a lot quieter.
"Let's continue our action and target other liches."
After seeing this scene, Lei Xiao did not stay any longer, but disappeared on the huge battlefield with the two stone elves.
Although the liches were extremely cunning, some hid in the dense piles of undead, some simply used illusion scrolls to conceal their bodies, and some even disguised themselves as corpses. In the battlefield filled with deathly aura and chaotic energy flow, even a sixth-level strongman would find it difficult to find any clues.
But because Xiaojing's perception was also different from that of ordinary people, wherever Lei Xiao went, the wailing of the lich was endless, and one undead soldier after another fell down like grass being mowed.
Under the targeted hunting of powerful dark elves such as Lei Xiao and Lianna, and the strong fighting power of the dark elf miners, the left side of the undead army soon collapsed completely, with fallen skeletons and bone piles everywhere.
On the right side of the Undead army, although they had not yet completely retreated, they were already shaky and in a mess, and it was obvious that they had completely lost the murderous aura and momentum they had before.
As for the rear troops of the Undead Army, they were also in chaos after being stabbed in the back by our side, and were still in a state of being unable to take care of themselves.
It didn't take long before the three dark elf legions led by Lei Xiao and Lianna successfully merged with the three dark elf legions on the right, which undoubtedly announced the complete defeat of the left and right wings and the center front of the Undead army.
After that, the six combined dark elf legions changed direction and attacked directly towards the relatively intact rear army of the Undead Army.
Although the combat effectiveness of the Undead rear army was obviously much stronger, it was soon exhausted by the pincer attack from our nine fourth-order legions and had almost no ability to fight back.
However, Liches are the force that is most adept at controlling the undead, and are also the most vicious and cruel force.
After realizing that defeat was inevitable, a large number of Undead soldiers began to self-destruct violently without warning, including the defeated Undead on the ground.
For a moment, the entire battlefield was instantly swept by a deadly bone-breaking storm, causing many dark elf miners who were caught off guard to be smashed to pieces and dissipated into the air.
Taking advantage of the moment when bones were flying everywhere and our formation was broken, the remaining liches led the remaining undead to flee madly, seizing the opportunity and soon disappeared completely in the night that was about to dawn.
"Forget it. Don't chase after a desperate enemy. With the cunning of the lich, there must be traps all over the escape route, and there may even be ambushes. We don't need to take the risk. The most important thing is, don't forget that there are still a group of our enemies in the canyon. That is the root of everything."
Seeing this, Lei Xiao nodded to Lianna who had reunited with him and ordered, "Tell all the dark elf legions to return to the canyon for support. It's time to put an end to this farce once and for all."
"I understand. I agree with your opinion."
After receiving Lei Xiao's order, Lianna closed her starry eyes slightly and immediately began to notify other dark elf commanders.
Soon, all the dark elf legions changed direction again and marched straight towards the Wangying Canyon.
At this time in the Wangying Canyon, the battle had entered a white-hot stage.
Not long ago, after the absolute defense barrier was broken, and with the elite legion of the dark elves blocking the way and the indiscriminate bombardment of our friendly forces, the trolls and tauren, after suffering a lot of casualties, simply jumped over the wall in desperation and began to use bridge-building and city-building techniques to launch a fierce attack on one side of the canyon, quickly eliminating the terrain advantage of our friendly forces.
Because the siege forces of the friendly forces were relatively dispersed, and in order to maximize output, many long-range soldiers were deployed in the front. In addition, the two sides of the canyon were uneven and the terrain was undulating, making it difficult to fully deploy the battle formation, which gave the opponent an opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
The most crucial thing is that the opponent did not choose to attack the flying dragonborn, flower elves, and wood elves, nor did he choose the defensive tree people, but chose the dwarf elves who were least good at mountain warfare.
For a moment, Broy and Cornet, who were caught off guard, were in a state of panic. After all, the dwarfs had just experienced the battle of the Dragon's Lair, and their main alchemical puppets suffered extremely serious losses.
Although the Dragonborn, Flower Fairies, and Wood Fairies all sent reinforcements as soon as possible, they were still unable to fully display their strength due to the complex terrain, high mountains and dense forests.
At this point, our side and the enemy had already gone from the initial canyon siege into a mountain melee, fighting fiercely in various parts of the mountain. From time to time, we could see soldiers who had lost their footing screaming and falling from the top of the mountain into the depths of the dark canyon.
"What? The undead army led by the lich was actually defeated!"
After getting the latest news, I saw that after Xirik swung his giant axe to chop down a fifth-level dwarf alchemical puppet, his rough face filled with hostility was full of surprise.
After being defeated by Jace, although Jax's morale was extremely low, he quickly recovered a lot of his combat power with his own powerful strength, potions and the treatment of the troll shaman.
It was also under the command of Jerric that the troll army successfully used city-building techniques to attack the dwarf elves' positions.
"Master Chief, what should we do now?"
Hearing this, another troll general's face was filled with panic, and he asked hurriedly.
Although several of Shirik's main lackeys had died before because they did not have time to escape, Shirik's power was extremely large in the Troll Tribe Alliance, and naturally there were more lackeys following him.
As for the two disobedient tribes of Giant Tree and Mountain Abyss, they were arranged by Silik to stay at the rear. Under the unstoppable attack of the dark elves, it was obviously no different from committing suicide.
"What else can we do? Of course we have to fight them to the death!"
Xilike was clearly blood-thirsty, and said with murderous intent on his face: "Everyone who stands in my way must die!"
After saying that, Xirik swung the giant axe in his hand wildly, and knocked down another dwarf soldier and alchemical puppet who had no time to dodge.
After receiving the order from Jerrik, although the troll general was extremely frightened, he had to command his soldiers to continue fighting.
Since Jerric was in the lead and blocked the news of the undead's defeat, the other troll soldiers who were unaware of the situation were also eager to fight. They killed the dwarves and forced them to retreat step by step, almost to complete defeat.
At this moment, two other troll figures exuding extraordinary momentum had quietly approached Xirik under the cover of the chaotic battlefield.
"Hahaha, no one can stop this leader!"
Under the successive blows of unfavorable battle situation and bad news, Xirik was obviously completely crazy. He waved his giant axe and laughed wildly without restraint.
The next second, Xirik was suddenly surprised to find that the troll general and his bodyguards who had been following him just now had quietly disappeared. Before he could react, countless vines had sprung out from the ground and tied him up tightly.
Behind him, another old troll holding a wooden staff emerged. It was the giant tree leader, Hanershu.
"It's you? How dare you sneak attack this leader! Are you really tired of living?"
Xilike reacted quickly. His muscles bulged and veins on his face were exposed. Under the protection of the energy barrier, he struggled for a while and broke all the vines.
This is not surprising. After all, Shilike is a genuine sixth-level four-star powerhouse, while Hanershu is only a sixth-level two-star. It is indeed extremely difficult to restrain the former.
"You lunatic, not only have you pushed our Giant Tree Tribe into the fire pit, but you have also put the entire Troll Tribe Alliance into an irretrievable situation. You deserve to be killed by everyone!"
Hanershu's old face was full of anger. The magic power of the wooden staff in his hand surged, and countless vines broke out of the ground again, sweeping towards Shirik.
"How can such a petty trick hurt this leader!"
After being prepared, the giant axe in Shirik's hand changed into thousands of trajectories, easily chopping the surrounding vines into pieces.
After easily breaking through Hanershu's attack, Xirik was seen with murderous intent on his face. He said to the former coldly: "I was originally planning to kill you after everything is over. Since you are so anxious to die, this leader will grant your wish!"
After saying that, just as Xirik swung his giant axe and was about to shoot out, a sharp lance had already pierced his neck from behind, making him stiff on the spot.
Behind Xirik, a female troll general riding on a giant gray leopard had an expressionless face. She was the leader of Shanyuan.
"Uh……"
Xirik looked at the gun tip that pierced through him in disbelief, unable to speak a word. A hint of fear began to emerge on his rough face, which was originally filled with hostility.
As Shanyuan leader pulled out the tip of his gun, Shirik's neck quickly fell down crookedly like a fountain, and his panic and fear completely solidified.
"This is the end of being insidious and vicious."
The leader of Shanyuan glanced at the lifeless corpse, then nodded heavily to Hanershu and said, "Chief Giant Tree, let me wait for you to end this."
