Lord Highlander

  Chapter 126 125. Comprehension on the battlefield

  In fact, when the soldiers of the second team discovered that there were only five evil spirits attacking the camp at night, everyone felt that although the battle was a bit unprepared, it was not so difficult.

  The second team is facing five evil spirits, as long as they are commanded properly, they can completely defeat them one by one.

   What's more, after Suldak became the captain of the sixth squadron, he also took advantage of his position to obtain five more durable tower shields for the second squadron.

This kind of shield can only be obtained in the warehouse of the logistics department of the Expeditionary Army. The entire shield body is square, and the surface of the shield is covered with spikes like triangular iron nails, and the shield is extremely strong. Generally speaking, only the heavy armor of the chariot Only the infantry can use this kind of heavy shield, but the soldiers of the second team have the 'Divine Blessing Body', their own physique and strength have been greatly enhanced, and their endurance and physical recovery have also doubled, so for them It is said that this kind of heavy tower shield is no longer a burden during the march. With this kind of tower shield, it will be more calm when facing evil spirits.

  Five warriors held tower shields and took turns resisting the attack of the evil spirits. Silver runes flashed on the tower shields from time to time, offsetting most of the attacks of the evil spirits.

They have a well-founded basis for advancing and retreating, and they are not afraid of fighting with the evil spirits that are more than three meters in length. Occasionally, the daring ones will raise their swords to fight back. The shield fighters are constantly trying.

The "Blessed Body" brought them not only an increase in strength and physique, but also an increase in confidence and fighting will. Self, one's own strength is naturally improving rapidly.

  He Boqiang and Suerdak cooperated with each other, preparing to kill the evil spirit in front of them as quickly as possible.

But this evil spirit is the most powerful captain in the patrol team. Although he was repeatedly injured, he relied on his strong strength to resist most of the attacks of Suldak and Augustus. The black-striped demon skin released layers of black flame-like demonic energy, which surrounded its body like flames, and the wound on Captain Evil Ghost healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. He Boqiang and the others were at a stalemate.

Originally, I was most worried about the two soldiers in the team who were in charge of night duty outside, but after the battle started in the camp, the two team soldiers quickly returned to help, and everyone was relieved. A Night Warrior who chose to sneak into the camp secretly.

  If He Boqiang hadn't discovered the evil spirit sneaking in in advance, once the evil spirit sneaked in, the consequences would be disastrous.

  …

  The addition of five female swordsmen from the Advanced Swordsman Academy failed to change the stalemate immediately.

  Although they have excellent weapons, they don't know how to cooperate with the soldiers of the second team.

  Although they have superb sword skills, they don't have any actual combat experience. They rush into the battle rashly, but they disrupt the tacit cooperation between the soldiers of the second team.

  At the same time, with their keen sense of smell on the battlefield, those evil spirits immediately discovered that these female swordsmen were the best breakthrough.

  Although the swordsmanship of the female swordsmen was fierce, the evil spirits were able to kill them by virtue of their great strength, and retreated steadily.

  Even the female swordsman had to deal with the overwhelming attacks of the evil spirits, unable to use any fancy swordsmanship, so she could only grit her teeth and use the exquisite Western rapier in her hand to dismantle the thunderous continuous blows of the evil spirits.

Seeing the excellent quality Western rapier with azure blue blade, being continuously blown away by the serrated axe of the evil spirits, the infantry soldiers chasing after saw their eyelids twitching, and they didn't know it was because of their distress. A female swordsman who keeps retreating, still feels sorry for the excellent quality rapier in their hands.

  The evil spirits pressed on under continuous pursuit, causing the female swordsmen to retreat again and again.

  Several shield fighters from the second team immediately caught up, and with the tower shield in their hands, they resisted the fierce attack of the evil spirits.

  The heavy blows of the evil spirits were in front of the shields of the soldiers of the second team, and the offensive could not be carried out continuously, and they immediately became clumsy and powerless.

These fighters are like tortoises, hiding their bodies behind the shields as much as possible. Every time the evil spirits attack, the soldiers in the squad only slightly adjust their defensive posture, but the defense effect is obvious. Several shield fighters had no choice.

  Every time the evil spirits perform a cleave that splits mountains and rocks, a silver light will emerge from the tower shields in the hands of the soldiers to block the evil spirits' attacks.

  …

  Miss Hathaway was wearing a thorntail crystal lion leather armor, which was considered the strongest among the female swordsmen.

At this time, she saw the cooperation between He Boqiang, Suldak, and Augustus, and figured out that there was no need to face the evil spirits from the front. She hid behind the shield warriors and let the shield warriors block the evil spirits in front. If the swordsmen are not prepared to attack the ghost's attack, they will be able to reap good results.

   Immediately, she led a few female swordsmen to change tactics, and handed the front to the shield warriors. The silver light flickered like fireworks in the night. The ghost warriors suppressed their anger, but they couldn't move forward.

  At this time, as He Boqiang found a flaw, he raised his hand and smashed the shield on the ferocious face of Captain Evil Ghost.

Augustus and Kagel pierced the evil ghost captain's ribs with spears in their hands. The two took advantage of the situation to cross the evil ghost captain, and tried their best to push the evil ghost captain back and died. nailed to a tree trunk.

  Suldak stepped on a tree branch and jumped high, and cut off the head of the evil spirit with the knight's long sword.

   Then he waved his hand vigorously, and all the soldiers of the second team surrounded another evil ghost.

  He Boqiang replaced the original shield warrior to block the attack of the evil spirit. Augustus and Kagel used spears to hold the evil spirit's army thorns, and the rest of the soldiers took advantage of the chaos to stab the evil spirit to death.

   After the two evil spirits fell down in an instant, the battle situation became much easier.

The five shield warriors took turns to block the attack of the three evil spirits. The female swordsmen also mastered some fighting skills at this time. The round-faced female swordsman stabbed a evil spirit with a Western rapier, but because she Too nervous, after stabbing the evil spirit with the Western rapier in his hand, he didn't withdraw in time, and was broken by the evil ghost's elbow.

   "Okay, you evil ghost actually broke my sword..."

  After the round-faced female swordsman stepped back, she looked pale with anger when she saw the half-bladed sword in the evil ghost's chest.

  I could only stand by and watch as the squad of soldiers killed the evil spirits one by one with basic movements without fancy tricks.

  The round-faced female swordsman who fell into silence pulled Hathaway secretly, signaling her to stop and have a look. The second team used the most effective means to kill the remaining evil spirits cleanly.

The female swordsman suddenly found with some frustration that what she had learned so hard in the academy was of no use on the battlefield. It was completely different from the martial arts arena. On the battlefield, the simplest ultimate moves were often the most powerful. .

  Two quarters of an hour later, the sneak attack of the evil spirits ended, and the five evil spirits were quickly cleaned up by the soldiers of the second team.

One thing that has always troubled Suldak is that these evil spirits will decisively use the viscous blood in their body as fuel to quickly ignite themselves to release the layered A layer of black flame, that kind of black flame has a very strong devouring power, it can instantly swallow infantry soldiers and turn them into ashes, and it cannot be resisted.

  But the evil spirits who fought with the second team never seemed to set themselves on fire, which made him a little incomprehensible.

  Augustus believed that the silver rune of the "Shield of Blessing" suppressed the black flame on the evil spirit's body, but it was impossible to verify whether this statement was true or not.

  …

  The battle broke out suddenly, and it ended quickly after only two quarters of an hour.

  Miss Hathaway, who was panting non-stop, saw that the soldiers didn't stop there.

  As soon as the battle ended, they were busy disposing of the spoils. Of course, Suldak had to peel off the black-striped demon skins on these evil spirits himself.

Miss Hathaway retracted the rapier into its scabbard, looked at the messy battlefield in front of her, and couldn't help covering her **** lips with her hands. She didn't feel anything at the beginning of the battle, but now that the battle has stopped, the camp is full of chaos. There were five headless corpses of evil spirits lying there. These evil spirits were also stripped bloody. The open space on this side of the camp was like a Shura field in hell. Suppressing the nausea in his stomach, he retreated to the big tree beside him. Taking a breath of fresh air, I seem to feel better in my heart.

  Among the other female swordsmen, some couldn't hold back, and ran to the side to vomit.

The night attack ended under such circumstances. After the five female swordsmen woke up and walked out of the tent in the morning, they found that the corpses of the five headless ghosts had all been disposed of. Blood stains remained.
