The Chaos Beastmen have no organization. Once the enemy leader is killed, the remaining Chaos Beastmen will fall into a state of disarray, and internal strife may even break out on the spot.
In the Holy Empire, one of the ways to deal with the Beastmen is to find their leader, find a way to kill him, and then wait for the Beastmen to kill each other before reaping the rewards.
In the center of the valley, the surviving Chaos Beastmen trapped in the rubble seemed to have not figured out the situation yet. They looked around blankly at first. After confirming the situation, some of them raised their heads and roared towards the top of the mountain.
Lind picked up a stone and threw it down, which brought another enthusiastic response.
Among this group of Chaos Beastmen, there was one who was dirty, obviously smaller in size, and had no signs of metal on his body. This should be the other Chaos Shaman.
The Chaos Beastman, like the other Chaos Beastmen, wandered around aimlessly for a while, then it discovered something and stumbled into the rubble pile to the north.
Under Lind's gaze, the shaman first cried loudly while searching for something in the rubble. After searching for a while, the shaman pulled out a red copper axe from the rubble.
It was the battle axe of the lion king Mara, Lind recognized it.
Seeing the axe, Lind immediately laughed. The plan was successful.
"How many Chaos Beastmen are left down there?" Lind asked.
"Eighty-eight left." Alyssa quickly reported the number.
Eighty-eight Chaos Beastmen, and they were in chaos because their leader disappeared.
"Throw down all the javelins we brought!" Linde ordered decisively. "Then we go down! Cut off the head of the lion king Mara!"
Countless experiences and lessons from our ancestors tell us that after defeating a strong enemy, we must make the final move.
Chapter 247: Blood God's Remote Protection
Explosive bombs from both sides blew the mountain into pieces, causing debris to fly everywhere. A large amount of debris fell down and blocked the entire valley.
The exits at both ends of the valley were blocked by rubble, and eighty-eight Chaos Beastmen were trapped in the middle.
The bodies of these Chaos Beastmen have been more or less metalized, and the air around them is distorted due to their high body temperatures. The weapons in their hands are not simple cheap goods, but various heavy axes. Axes, especially battle axes suitable for beheading, are the most representative weapons of the Blood God. It is said that the Blood God's own weapon is a battle axe.
After the initial panic, the surviving Chaos Beastmen calmed down and roared at the top of the mountain. The power of the Blood God made the Chaos Beastmen, who already lacked the ability to speak, completely lose the ability to speak except for one sentence, but this did not prevent the people on the top of the mountain from feeling the anger of the Chaos Beastmen below.
Apart from the surviving Chaos Beastmen, the most critical target, Lion King Mara, was buried by the rubble caused by the second explosion.
Lind didn't know whether it was dead or not, but in order to make sure it was dead, Lind decided to go down and finish it off. The head of the Beast King would definitely cause the morale of the remaining Chaos Beastmen to collapse instantly.
There were eighty-eight enemies, and Lind brought more than forty people, including ten combat nuns, thirty sheep beastmen, the former shaman Kyle, the warrior Katie, and the magic apprentice Alyssa.
It was also a last resort to let Alisa go to the front line. If you want to go up and down the mountain quickly, the magician's feather fall is indispensable. In addition, it was also Ilufa's idea to let his daughter go to the front line, hoping that the two of them would strengthen their relationship while fighting side by side.
There is a saying in the Holy Empire that the feelings forged through shared dangers can transcend everything, even gender.
It is indeed dangerous to send my immature daughter to the front line, but if we lose the war, no place on the entire Aiwozhen Island will be safe.
The Chaos Beastmen in the valley wanted to come up, but they didn't have the climbing ability of sheep. They could only climb a short distance before they slipped and fell back. They wanted to throw axes up, but it was obvious that their strength could not fight against gravity. Lind and his party were not in a hurry to go down, but threw down everything they could first.
The javelins they brought with them were thrown down like they were free, raining down on the beastmen below the valley. As for Elisa, she condensed several icicles from the air and shot them down.
Soon, all the javelins that were brought were thrown, and the ground was filled with javelins. Although the momentum was huge, but...
"Why did only so few people die?" Lind held the last javelin in his hand and looked down with a confused look on his face.
Just now, nearly two hundred javelins were thrown down in one breath, but not many Chaos Beastmen below were killed, only about ten were stabbed to death.
Lind also discovered that the effect of javelins on these Blood God Chaos Beastmen was greatly reduced. Some of them were already covered in armor, but facing the rain of javelins, they did not move at all and just let the javelins pierce them.
To verify, after everyone else stopped throwing their javelins, Lind aimed at one of them, who had been standing there in a bossy manner, glaring at his Chaos Beastman, and threw the javelin in his hand. The javelin drew an arc and accurately hit the opponent's face, and then...
The javelin seemed to have stuck in a wall of cotton and fell to the ground.
The Chaos Beastman who was hit in the face by the javelin showed a mocking arc at the corner of his mouth under his helmet, and then he stepped on the javelin on the ground and broke it.
"What's going on! What's going on!" Lind shouted immediately.
"The Blood God's long-range protection." Cynthia promptly explained to Lind and the other new beastmen who were also surprised. "When a person or something else obtains enough power from the Blood God, he will have a strong resistance to long-range attacks, or even completely ignore them."
"The protection of Ryuya!?" Lind's eyes widened.
"What?" Cynthia tilted her head.
Linde subconsciously wanted to shout that this was unscientific, but he stopped himself. Since the incident had really happened, what he should do was not to deny its existence, but to think about the principles and countermeasures.
"So I've already said that throwing javelins from a high place is useless. It's better to just go straight up." Cynthia said, stretching her neck, and then picked up the shield and mace. "To deal with the followers of the Blood God, we have to kill them with dignity. I'm going first!"
After saying this, the nun from the Blood Rose Monastery took the lead and jumped directly off the steep cliff.
Lind looked down hurriedly, and saw that she first buffered at several places on the steep cliff where she could stand. For the last distance, she directly raised her shield downward and smashed it to the ground in the same way as a certain captain of the 50-50 team. The shock wave from the landing directly repelled several Chaos Beastmen who tried to approach.
After landing, Cynthia pulled out her mace without stopping, smashing the head of a Chaos Beastman with one blow. Blood splattered everywhere, and Cynthia roared, "Blood sacrifice to the God-Emperor! Skull for the Golden Throne!"
After her, the remaining war nuns joined the battlefield in a similar way, unscrupulously showing off their charm as crazy women that no one dared to marry.
The Sisters of War had already gone up, and Lind could no longer stand by and watch. The javelins were not completely ineffective. Apart from killing ten of them, the others were more or less injured. The only ones that were not affected at all were about eight Chaos Beastmen.
Why is it eight again, Linde complained in his heart.
Judging from the appearance, the more complete the armor is and the more metalized area is, the stronger the immunity to javelins is. The eight Chaos Beastmen who can completely ignore javelins look almost the same as plate armored infantry knights.
Since long-range weapons were useless, they could only resort to close combat, and the war nuns who had gone down first had already started. At Lind's command, the remaining new beastmen began to descend the mountain one after another.
The two cows were carried down by the sheep respectively, as for Lind.
"Alissa, please."
"I understand." Alisa held out her hand to Lind. "Take my hand."
The two held hands, and Alisa muttered something. A gust of wind wrapped the two of them, and then she jumped down with light movements.
After everyone went down, a beautiful figure hiding in the darkness on the top of the mountain emerged from the darkness.
The figure walked to the edge of the cliff with graceful steps, and looked towards the pile of rubble in the north where the Beast King was buried.
"Your Highness, I have followed your instructions and arrived at the designated location. What should I do next?"
"Keep a close watch. If there are signs of success in Killing Sky's plan, you know what to do." A voice whose gender could not be determined echoed in the figure's mind.
Chapter 248 Close Combat
The mountain in Dongshankou Canyon is not that steep, at least it is not an almost vertical cliff. If you spend a little time looking, you can find a relatively flat place for people to go down.
On the top of the mountain, more than 40 people went down the mountain in different ways and fought with the remaining Chaos Beastmen. The Sheep Beastmen still went down the mountain in a way that sheep can only do, and brought two cows with them, while the Sisters of War relied on their excellent physical fitness to make a hard landing. Small pits could be seen where the Sisters of War landed.
As for Linde and Elisa, they were like immortals who had descended to earth.
With the help of the Feather Fall Technique, the two of them moved down the mountain like nimble deer. Every time their feet touched the rocks, it was as light as skipping stones on water.
After a few takeoffs, the two landed on the ground. In order to ensure that Linde was also within the range of the Feather Fall, Alisa held Linde's hands throughout the whole process. After landing, Alisa's breathing became a little rapid and her cheeks were slightly red, perhaps because of excessive consumption of magic power or some other reason.
"Thank you." Linde let go of her hand and thanked Alyssa.
"Thanks...behind you!" Just as Elisa was about to reply, a blind Chaos Beastman rushed towards Lind.
Lind was not polite and did not draw his sword. He just kicked a javelin at his foot. The javelin spun in the air with the tip pointing forward. Lind put his foot against the tail, and then the Chaos Beastman could not stop and hit the javelin directly.
The opponent still wanted to struggle, but Lind decisively drew his sword and chopped off his neck. A big head flew into the sky along with blood like a fountain.
After neatly and efficiently dealing with the first Chaos Beastman, Lind felt a surge of blood and strength in his heart.
When fighting, people get excited, and the secretion of adrenaline makes people more excited and stronger. Lind did not doubt it, thinking it was a normal physiological reaction.
Then, two more Chaos Beastmen rushed over, shouting the Blood God's battle cry, and rushed towards Linde and Elisa.
"Waaaaagh~!" In response, Lind also roared, and then his whole body shook.
Linde dodged the first round of attacks, and then the two beastmen fell silent as they watched Linde's constantly shaking figure. He was shaking so much that an afterimage was almost left, and they couldn't find the correct position and angle to chop off his head.
The reason why Lind could shake like this was not because he suddenly got Parkinson's disease, but because of Chen Haihuang's teaching that the body should be constantly shaking during battle in order to prevent the enemy from locking onto one's weaknesses. Chen Haihuang himself even trained his dodging to become passive.
After a brief moment of confusion, one of the Chaos Beastmen suddenly twitched and fell straight down with an icicle stuck in the back of his head. The other Chaos Beastman turned his head in anger and saw several sharp icicles floating around Elisa. This was where the icicles came from.
Seeing that the icicles were effective, Alisa continued to wave her staff, launching icicles one by one. Seeing this, the Chaos Beastman decisively gave up Lind and rushed towards Alisa.
Seeing that my wizard was about to be killed, Lind immediately chased after him, but he was a beat slower. All the ice cones fired by Alisa were blocked, and in the end there were only three ice cones left.
"Blood sacrifice to the Blood God! Skulls for the Skull Seat!" The Chaos Beastman rushed over and chopped down with his battle axe. Alisa shouted and swung her cane vigorously. Three ice cones came together to block the battle axe. The ice cones were cracked by the battle axe, but they still blocked the attack.
The next moment, Lind's sword arrived, and the sword wrapped with wind blades cut off the head cleanly and neatly, and Lind got the second kill.
"Alisa! Are you okay?" Lind went to check on Alisa's condition as soon as possible.
"I'm fine." Alisa wiped the blood off her face.
"I'm sorry, I promised your mother to protect you." Linde said self-reproachfully.
Elisa stared at Lind with dead fish eyes, and said this as if she had been entrusted to him by her mother.
"What level of magic was that ice cone just now?" Lind asked curiously. Although it was very short, Elisa had just accomplished a feat: a magician fighting in close combat.
"Line level." Alisa replied. "Do you have any questions?"
"Nothing." Lind shook his head. "Let's go quickly."
"Yeah." Elisa nodded and followed Linde to the rubble pile in the north.
Now the whole valley was in chaos, with both sides fighting each other. Although Linde was not at an advantage in terms of numbers, with the presence of the high-level unit, the two sides were still evenly matched.
Linde and Elisa walked forward together. Most of the Chaos Beastmen along the way were held back by others, but conversely, others were also held back by the Chaos Beastmen.
In front of the rubble pile in the north, Chaos Shaman Luke the Hundred Braids was still digging with his hands, looking for the Lion King Mara. On the road leading to the rubble pile, eight Chaos Beastmen in heavy armor did not join the battle, but blocked the road to the rubble pile, looking at Lind's neck with a cruel look.
They are looking for the best place to strike with the axe.
"What's going on with these eight beastmen?" Elisa tightly grasped the staff in her hand and frowned as she looked at the eight Blood God warriors.
The bodies of these eight Blood God beastmen were highly metalized, and the one standing in the front was the one who crushed Lind's javelin. As a warrior of the Blood God, it was unreasonable for him not to join the battlefield in front of him.
"When fighting these things, if you don't understand, don't think about it. The more you think about it, the easier it is to be affected by them." Lind said Cynthia's teachings, swung the sword in his hand, and rushed forward.
The Chaos Beastman standing in the front saw Linde rushing over, and he also roared, waving his axe, and rushed over in retaliation.
In response, Lind roared, and as usual, his anger and madness overwhelmed the human body's instinctive fear of fighting, and Lind switched to combat mode.
Both parties collided with each other with tremendous rage. The Chaos Beastman's two-handed battle axe smashed over with a tremendous force. Lind pretended to fight back head-on, but he feinted and withdrew his attack before the weapons made contact, letting the opponent's battle axe hit the ground.
The opponent was exhausted and fell into a state of stiffness. Lind seized the opportunity, swung his sword, and cut off the head of the first Chaos Beastman with a standard execution-style beheading.
The moment the head was chopped off, Lind felt his rage grow even stronger.
At the same time, in the rubble, Luke the Hundred Braids, whose hands were covered in blood, finally found the Lion King Mara from the rubble.
It's not dead yet.
Chapter 249: Why Mages Need Close Combat
Elisa held a staff in her hand, with four ice cones floating around her to defend against possible attacks at any time.
As a magic apprentice at the triangle level who has not yet become a formal magician, Alyssa can silently cast point and line magic corresponding to her attributes, chant to cast triangle magic, and cast square magic by rune infusion. The ability to cast magic of what level without runes is an important and even the only basis for classifying magicians.
Originally, Alisa, like all other traditional magicians, pursued powerful and complex magic. However, at the request of her mother, she used a bunch of low-level magic runes such as dots and lines to accomplish what high-level magic runes could do, and allowed people who were not magicians to use the power of magic. Then Alisa began to think.
Perhaps, the sole pursuit of powerful magic is not the only route. Low-level magic can also exert powerful power if used properly.
For example... using magic in close combat?
In the stereotype, magicians are not good at close combat. It takes time to release magic and the magician needs to concentrate. In addition, magicians live a secluded life, so it is too much to expect them to have strong physiques. The standard answer is that magicians cannot fight in close combat. Once they are approached, they are doomed.
But inspired by her mother and her competitive spirit against Lind, Elisa opened her mind. She was indeed young and her magic attainments were far from mature, but as the saying goes, a small boat is easier to turn around. Elisa had not yet reached the level of a formal magician, so she had enough space to try new paths, and the sunk cost was not high anyway.
Then Alisa came up with the idea of melee magic.
The reason for choosing this was also closely related to Lind. The mother wanted her to marry Lind, and the daughter knew it very well. What was worse was that the other party completely met the mate selection criteria that Alisa told her mother, so she couldn't regret it. Although Alisa didn't accept her fate so quickly, the competitive spirit of a young person made Alisa want to compete with Lind.
Since we have been defeated by our opponent in the field of knowledge, let's try the field of combat.
Driven by this bizarre idea, Alisa first tried the water-based line-level magic ice cone technique. Alisa felt that if the ice cone was suspended around the body instead of simply thrown out, it could act as a gun.
After thinking of this idea, Alisa put it into practice with full action. She took advantage of her work break and asked the two knights for help with their spear skills. Although the two knights were confused, they had to do as the young lady asked. After initial exploration, Alisa's idea initially achieved results, and she used the instant ice cone to complete the first battle.
When the Chaos Beastman's head was pierced by the ice cone, the blood splattered everywhere, making Elisa feel excited and refreshed from the bottom of her heart. This was much more satisfying than killing the enemy from a distance with a fireball.
Now, Elisa and Lind ran towards the rubble where the lion king Mara was buried, aiming to cut off Mara's head and ensure victory.
The road leading to the rubble pile was blocked by eight Chaos Beastmen in full armor, and all the other Chaos Beastmen were held back. From another perspective, it was not only the Chaos Beastmen who were held back, but also the coalition forces.
Lind rushed forward without hesitation and fought with the eight Chaos Beastmen who were blocking his way. However, these eight Chaos Beastmen, with great martial ethics, did not choose to attack from both sides, but attacked one by one.
