Warcraft Eternal Tree - Chapter 605
c605 Innogate is broken
Will the weakening of combat power be used to prevent the possibility of being attacked? The gains and losses in this are somewhat difficult to calculate. Illidan thought thoughtfully.
At Inno Pass, there are now banners flying and crowds of people. In addition to the troops sent from the Holy Lion Empire, the private armies of the nobles who fled to the west of Inno Pass were also temporarily recruited as the city defense troops.
Those nobles who fled certainly did not want their last reliance to be recruited, but these nobles who lost their land obviously had no say in front of the imperial officials, so they could only helplessly accept the fate of losing their territory and their army.
As a result, the number of defenders in Inno Pass increased greatly. This time when the night elves went to war, Yu Fei did not intend to interfere, and Illidan, who did not have the God’s perspective like Yu Fei, could not easily count the number of enemies, so he did not directly start to attack Inno Pass.
It was not until the reserve grassroots officials sent by the Dark Night Empire had spread all over the territory of the Holy Lion Empire west of Inno Pass, turning this place into the territory of the Dark Night Empire, that Illidan led his army to knock on the pass.
To be precise, this was the first real battle after the Dark Night Empire went out this time. The three kingdoms had no resistance at all before, and the west of Inno Pass was also abandoned by the Holy Lion Empire. The night elf soldiers, who have gradually acquired strong wisdom, have a strong desire for war.
The terrain of Inno Pass is actually a very typical place as a pass. Unless the army has the ability to fly, it is impossible to pass here without breaking Inno Pass. Of course, it is not impossible to bypass it from other places, but the result of doing so is not worth the loss.
Sky Druid Furion is naturally in the troops dispatched by the Night Elves this time, but although he has the skill of flying magic, it is impossible for him alone to lead the million-strong army of the Night Elves through Inno Pass. Therefore, the night elves had only one way to go, that is, to break through Inno Pass and enter the heartland of the Holy Lion Empire.
The night elves’ siege method has always been to combine glaive throwers and mountain giants, first destroying all the enemy’s defensive facilities with long-range advantages, and then advancing leisurely into the city or pass that is no longer fortified. However, this time, the night elves made some changes.
The night elves’ large army was located a thousand meters west of Inno Pass. At this position, even the mountain giants who switched to long-range mode could not attack the walls of Inno Pass, only the glaive throwers had such a long range. However, there were no rows of glaive throwers in front of the night elves’ formation.
Without mountain giants and glaive throwers, are the night elves going to attack Inno Pass directly? Even if the strength of the Inno Pass defenders is far inferior to that of the night elves, such a strong attack will also cause certain losses to the night elves-Illidan, who has been in battle for a long time, obviously will not be so unwise.
A purple-black shadow suddenly rose from behind the night elf camp. Thousands of chimeras, under Illidan’s command, flew into the air and headed towards Inno Pass. The night elves naturally would not attack Inno Pass directly, but just wanted to see how powerful the chimeras, as the ultimate soldiers, were.
While training the chimeras, Yu Fei had already completed the research on the corrosion spitting, the only exclusive technology of the chimeras. Therefore, when the chimeras attack living beings, they now use a chaotic attack that ignores armor; and when attacking buildings, they become siege attacks that can cause 2.5 times the damage.
The flying speed of the chimeras is not slow. It took less than ten seconds for thousands of chimeras, like dark clouds, to fly from above the night elf troops to the air only about 500 meters away from the walls of Inno Pass.
If it were a ground force, then this distance would be enough for the city defense measures in Inno Pass to take effect and launch a counterattack. And the war magic blessed by the Mage Tower is also enough to attack such a long distance. But the chimeras are now flying in the air, and neither the catapults nor the crossbows in Inno Pass can attack them.
Only war magic can attack the chimeras in mid-air. And Inno Pass did just that.
When the chimeras flew over from a distance, they were already noticed by the defenders in Inno Pass. The huge size of these two-headed monsters made the defenders of Inno Pass panic at first.
However, these human soldiers had never seen the great power of the chimeras, so they gradually calmed down under the orders of the officers. In order to slightly restore the somewhat low morale of some soldiers, the senior officials of the Inno Pass defenders decided to exert the power of the magician tower at the beginning.
Although the Holy Lion Empire did not think that Inno Pass alone could keep the troops of the Dark Night Empire out, it also expected that Inno Pass could block the troops of the Dark Night Empire for a period of time and buy more time for the rear defense. Therefore, there are still many magicians in Inno Pass.
Most of the spell slots of the accompanying mages in Inno Pass were occupied by the unpopular spell of Mage’s Eye. However, when using the Mage Tower to launch war magic, most of the magicians only provide magic power. As long as the magicians in key positions cast attack magic, the war magic that appears outside will be of the corresponding attack type.
When the Chimeras flew to the air 500 meters outside Inno Pass, the first wave of counterattacks from Inno Pass fell on them.
Because it is unknown what kind of magic these strange flying beasts are afraid of, the first wave of war magic released in Inno Pass includes all kinds of magic – giant wind blades, continuous fireballs and ice arrow rain. However, earth magic has little effect on air units, so it was not guided out by the magicians in Inno Pass using the magic tower.
With the help of the magic tower, this round of attack by the magicians in Inno Pass has the momentum of the blood elf magicians’ chaos casting. Wind, fire and ice gather together, both the sound and light effects and the actual killing effect are very good.
Unfortunately, no matter whether it is wind blades, fireballs or ice arrows, hitting the purple-black skin of Chimera, it has no effect at all.
As the ultimate arms of the night elves, even if these Chimeras are mostly ordinary because they have just been trained, they generally have the strength of entering the Eslaze Sky Level. If these 1,000 Chimeras are upgraded to elite level, then they are definitely 1,000 real legendary beasts.
Although the war magic flying out of Inno Pass was huge in number, it seemed relatively weak when facing the Chimera army with sky-level strength. The key point is that there are more than a thousand such strong men. If there were only dozens or hundreds, it would be fine.
Not to mention, after the wealthy Yu Fei upgraded his body to the level of the Eternal Tree, he researched all the technologies in the Hunter Hall to a high level. Under the blessing of advanced enhanced concealment, the armor of the Chimera was also improved to a very high level. Those huge but low-level magics were just a drizzle for the Chimera in this situation.
The strong defense of the Chimera made the defenders in Inno Pass a little panic. Before they could figure out what to do next, the Chimeras had already dispersed and started to attack Inno Pass four or five hundred meters away from the wall of Inno Pass.
As a long-range unit, the Chimera has a range of 500. However, because it is an air unit, this range has a great bonus when attacking ground targets. Therefore, although the straight-line distance between the flying chimera and the Inno Pass wall is far more than 500 meters, it can still pour its venom on the wall of Inno Pass.
Under the attack type of the chimera in siege mode when attacking buildings, the wall of Inno Pass still appears extremely fragile even after being temporarily blessed by multiple magics.
The dark green venom of thousands of chimeras is extremely corrosive, falling on the wall of Inno Pass, quickly corroding the solid wall into huge gaps. The human soldiers on the wall are naturally not immune to this venom.
It didn’t take long before the main body of the Inno Pass wall collapsed directly under the continuous corrosive venom of thousands of chimeras. If the glaive throwers and mountain giants were allowed to attack, even if the number of them far exceeded that of the chimeras, it would be difficult to destroy the wall of Inno Pass so quickly.
After the walls of Inno Pass were breached by the Chimera, the fate of the defenders inside the pass can be imagined. After destroying the walls, the Chimeras did not stop, but flew over Inno Pass and began to attack the places where human soldiers were densely packed.
When attacking life forms, one of their two heads sprayed venom, and the other emitted lightning. These giant beasts were extremely sharp when attacking the walls, and they were also very powerful when killing enemies, which was completely different from the wolf cavalry of the orcs.
At this time, things like crossbows and catapults could attack the Chimeras, but in this extremely chaotic situation, Inno Pass could not form an effective crossbow or catapult cluster attack, and the sporadic crossbows and boulders could not cause damage to the Chimeras like the previous magic.
With the Chimera leading the way, the night elf troops passed through Inno Pass without any effort and entered the heartland of the Holy Lion Empire. Although this made the night elves feel more relaxed, their fighting desire was still not vented.
As for the Holy Lion Empire, they were completely shocked. They thought that Inno Pass could at least block the Night Empire troops for a few days, but after the night elves really launched the attack, they couldn’t even hold out for half a day.
Three updates today.
