Chapter 120: Fierce Battle
Tens of thousands of Spider Soldiers rushed over like a flood that had broken through a dike and rushed into the valley. They were accompanied by rolling sand and stones and towering dust. For a mont, their montum was shocking!
Facing the spider army that was rushing over, Heath and the rest were also in formation and ready to deal with it.
200 stone n, whose comprehensive attributes were no less than that of Apprentice Knights, were divided into two parts by Heath. One part was divided into 50 and arranged to lie in ambush on both sides of the entrance of the valley.
The remaining 150 stone n stood in a row in front of the formation, as if a city wall had been erected in front of them.
Behind them were more than ten official Knights. Each of them held a longbow that was drawn to a full moon. Archery was a compulsory course for every Knight, and Knights did not only know how to use swords.
Behind the Knights were Heath and the other four Apprentice Wizards. Other than Heath, the other three had already taken out their respective Wizard tools. Jon and Marcel had long-handled staffs, while Kirst was left with a thick book.
Eight hundred steps…
Five hundred steps…
Three hundred steps!
“Prepare the bows and arrows! Release the arrows!”
With Heath’s order, the Knights released the bowstrings in their hands. The arrows tied with potion bottles and low-level scrolls shot into the sky, and then fell diagonally into the sea of spiders.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The one-ti magic tool tied to the shaft of the arrow was activated. In an instant, clusters of flas exploded, and hundreds of spiders were instantly swallowed by the flas.
“Squeak!!!”
The death of their companions aroused the ferocity of the group of monsters. They let out ear-piercing squeaks and their slender spider legs moved quickly. Their originally fierce speed suddenly increased by a large margin.
“Release the arrows! Release the arrows! Release the arrows!”
The arrows were shot into the group of spiders one after another under Heath’s command. After three rounds of volleys, the spider army had already closed in on them by 50 steps!
At this distance, there was no longer any point in continuing the volley of arrows. Heath decisively gave the order:
“Draw your swords!”
Clang! Clang!
A cold tallic sound rang out as bright cross swords were raised into the air one after another.
At the sa ti, the 150 stone n lowered their bodies and spread out their fists on both sides. Their large, irregular mouths opened up from top to bottom and let out earth-shattering roars. “Roar!”
Boom! A loud sound rang out.
The torrent of spiders crashed into the giant city wall. The powerful impact instantly caused the spiders in the front row to explode. The flying flesh and spider remains ford a terrifying rain of corpses in the sky.
However, very soon, the spider army at the back stepped on the corpses of their comrades and bathed in the blood of their comrades as they rushed forward to engage in a fierce battle with the stone giants.
Clang! Clang!
The spiders’ sharp forelimbs waved repeatedly, slashing at the hard body of the stone n. The attacks of countless blades imdiately left scars on the body of the stone n, and gravel flew everywhere.
But at the sa ti, the stone n also began to fight back. Large fists were hamred down, one by one, or even several. Wherever the fists landed, the spiders were all smashed into at paste.
On the other side, the Wizards and Knights in the back row also began to move.
The Knights stood behind the stone n as the second line of defense against the spider army. They fought with the spiders that passed by the stone n.
The remaining Wizards raised their staffs and chanted spells to cast spells one by one.
Jon and Kirst both cast fire spells, [Fireball] and [Summon Fla]. Fire spells were very useful in daily life. Wizards with or without affinity in this area would mostly learn so low-level spells.
The remaining Marcel did not seem to have learned any fire spells. At this ti, he was summoning thorns to block the spiders’ way.
These giant trees with thorns were very useful in this kind of group battle. There was no need to take the initiative to attack the enemy. The spiders would crash into them and their bodies would explode from the sharp parts.
This kind of battle continued for a few minutes. The spider army had already charged into the valley.
Seeing that the situation was almost over, Heath decisively ordered, “Close the road!”
The Knight in charge of issuing the order raised his stone horn and blew it. The stone n that had been lying in ambush on both sides of the valley suddenly rushed out and blocked the entrance of the valley.
At the sa ti, Heath raised his hand, and the long Necromancer’s Staff was already in his hand.
He raised the Necromancer’s Staff high and chanted an obscure incantation.
As the incantation was chanted, the fire elents in the air rose. Everyone present felt a surge of high temperature rapidly forming.
As demonized creatures that were especially sensitive to elents, they had already sensed the abnormality of the elents in the space. Their biological instincts caused the spiders to show fear. So of them even ignored the queen’s order and began to flee in panic. The formation beca chaotic.
“Ah!” At this mont, a high-pitched screech was heard from the spider army.
A giant creature suddenly appeared.
It was a giant spider that was about five ters long. The upper half of its body was that of a half-naked human female. The lower half of its body was that of a spider. Its two arms were simply two sharp blades.
It was the leader of the spider army, the Queen Spider!
Sensing the danger, the Queen Spider imdiately locked onto the source of the danger, Heath. Its huge body rose and fell in her spider army, waving its two long arms as it attacked Heath.
At this mont, the spell had just been activated, and the spell’s protective shield had yet to be activated. If he was hit, Heath’s mortal body would not be able to withstand it.
He was about to summon the Mimicry Shield to protect himself, but at this mont, soone was in front of him and blocked his way. It was one of his teammates, Kirst.
The magic book in Kirst’s hand was opened to both sides. A large number of vines flew out from the book and interweaved into a rattan shield in the air, blocking the Queen Spider’s path. The Queen Spider’s sharp blade was just right to counter such a tough plant.
Kirst said to Heath, “Concentrate on reading your spell. Leave this to .”
Heath looked at him in surprise. This silent Gray Wizard was more reliable than he had expected.
The spell continued to be chanted.
As the chant entered the middle section, the protective barrier was activated. The large hexagram magic circle covering the entire valley appeared under everyone’s feet, followed by the scorching flas.
After finishing the last rune, Heath shouted, “Retreat!”
The three Wizards and ten Knights gathered around threw away the battle in front of them and imdiately moved closer to Heath, hiding inside the protective barrier.
The mont everyone hid inside, the flas that covered the entire magic array soared into the sky. Countless fireballs and fire dragons spread out and swept across the entire valley, instantly turning the valley into a sea of fire.
When the people hiding inside the magic array saw this terrifying scene, they could not help but feel a chill in their hearts.
Such a powerful spell was already far beyond what an Apprentice could grasp. If the target of this spell was themselves, no one on the scene would have the confidence to withstand it.
Ten minutes later…
At this mont, the noise in the valley had already stopped. The entire valley was silent. Only the sound of burning firewood exploding echoed from ti to ti.
Charred corpses littered the valley. The smaller spiders were directly vaporized, while the larger ones had their flesh and bones burnt away. It was a spectacular sight to behold.
Standing in front of them was the Queen Spider, the leader of the spider army. Similarly, she had also been charred to a crisp.
Even a monster like Grice was unable to defend against the Hellfire Sea. It was even more impossible for a re high-level demonized creature to survive under it.
If not for Heath intentionally controlling the temperature to remove the flas in this region after confirming that the Queen Spider’s life had ended, the Queen Spider would probably only be left with a skeleton now.
The integrity of the corpse was directly related to the amount of material extracted.
Glancing at the strange corpse of the half-human, half-spider, Heath stepped forward and placed a hand on its body: ‘Extract.’
