Rise of the blood elves

169【Crisis】

"drink"

Tirion roared, and the warhammer in his hand was like the wind. With great force, it drew bright traces of light in mid-air and swung it towards a death knight.

The death knight's strength is also pretty good. He is a mid-level epic powerhouse. On the battlefield, he can at least equal one to a hundred.The death knight reacted very quickly, without any panic on his pale face. He directly raised the rune sword to his chest and placed his other hand against the blade, preparing to receive the attack forcefully.

The encirclement was too tight. Although it put huge pressure on Tirion, it also gave them little room to dodge and maneuver.

But what he faced was a legendary paladin holding a Titan artifact.

"Click"

The sharp rune sword made of Saronite was effortlessly broken by the war hammer. The heavy hammer head remained unabated and fell heavily on the death knight's chest.

With just a muffled bang, the Death Knight flew out like a cannonball, overwhelming several large angry guards along the way, and fell to his death in the distance.His chest has been completely sunken, and there are even broken bones protruding from his ribs. Even the undead natural disaster with strong vitality cannot survive such injuries.

The power of legend cannot be underestimated

Tirion killed a death knight with a single blow, but the price was equally heavy.In such a tight encirclement, no matter how exquisite the steps and agile the reaction, it is impossible to evade all attacks, let alone the Paladin, who has never been known for his agility.

In just a short moment, at least three or four of the death knights surrounding Tirion seized the opportunity and slashed their weapons at him. The rune swords with flashing runes were strengthened by the necromantic energy, cutting through the weak body-protecting holy light. , leaving deep marks on the Paladin's armor.

One of them even sent out a tentacle condensed from the undead energy and grabbed his right foot.A composite profession like this, which has extraordinary combat skills and can gradually master blood, shadow and even the ice branch of evocation spells through training, has far more attack and defense methods than warriors of the same level, and the threat level is also greater .

Tirion quickly released the power of the Holy Light within his body, broke free from the shackles of the "Death Grip", and regained his ability to move. However, such a fierce melee fight was rapidly changing, and his footsteps were only half a second delayed. The next series of plans completely fell through.

For a melee fighter, the most important thing is footwork.Because whether it is wielding a weapon or moving for defense, the power required starts from the feet.Once the pace is restricted, the consequences are likely to be catastrophic.

After killing the death knight, he originally wanted to turn around and continue to use his magic power. He would use a sweeping attack to push back the besiegers to gain space for him to cast spells. He would cast a consecration spell and completely turn the land within a few meters of it into his home court.The release speed of a spell, even if it is instantaneous, is always slower than wielding a weapon.

He can move freely within the influence of the consecration spell, but the undead must endure the burning of the holy flame.At that time, Tirion was able to dominate whether he took a breather or continued his attack.

But the current situation has become passive.

The turn of the right foot was delayed, and the enemy on the left immediately took advantage of it.Tirion could only give up his plan to continue attacking and use the handle of his hammer to block the side attack.The death knights were like cold and efficient machines, completely unaffected by the death of their comrades. Instead, they seized the opportunity to attack fiercely, trying to completely suppress the exhausted legendary paladin.

The whole battle was like a pack of evil wolves besieging a lion that had reached the end of its rope.Every counterattack by the lion can take the life of a bad wolf, but this loss is completely insignificant to the wolves.

The wolves were consuming the lion's strength bit by bit, and the lion couldn't even get a chance to breathe.

Death knights are extremely terrifying. Under unified mental control, they may even share the battle field of vision, see every movement of the enemy from different angles, and grasp the most comprehensive information about the enemy.In terms of closeness of cooperation, no army can match the Scourge and rival them.

During the breaks in the battle, Tirion kept looking around the battlefield.But the field of view was blocked by the tall angry guards, and he couldn't see the distance at all. He could only fight while approaching the place where the sacred energy wave came from.

Must rendezvous with friendly forces

The battle lasted only a few minutes. Except for the two most powerful death knights, almost all the others were killed by Tirion. But every time an enemy was killed, more enemies continued to come.

In a very short period of time, Tirion caused huge casualties to the opponent. At least dozens of demons and a dozen death knights died under the hammer.But the other party was still crazy and wanted to keep him at all costs.

His breathing became faster and heavier, and his arms became heavier and heavier.Physical exhaustion has become the biggest problem that bothers him.

During the battle, the high elf death knight endured Tirion's judgment spell, risking half of his body being burned to ashes, and deftly opened the buckle of his shoulder armor with the tip of his sword.

The moment the shoulder armor slipped off, Tirion, who was experienced in battle, suddenly realized that this would definitely become an attack point for the undead. He immediately turned his warhammer around and blocked the frontal attack route.

really

There was a roar from nearby, and a death knight wearing ice-blue armor flew out. The extremely heavy two-handed rune sword in his hand slashed down with great force, and collided with the Silver Hand war hammer.If Tirion hadn't responded promptly, this slash might have landed directly on his unprotected shoulder.

sparks

The attack was enough to knock away an ordinary death knight, but it only made the death knight stagger back a few steps.

Tirion was shocked. The opponent did not look like a legendary strongman, but he had a powerful force that was comparable to, or even slightly better than, a legend. His ability to withstand blows was also unique. If he hadn't responded promptly, this slashing blow would have been a direct hit. If his holy shield is broken and falls on the shoulder that has no armor protection, the consequences will be disastrous.

With the entrance of this death knight, Tirion's pressure increased several times.

Suddenly there were several explosions in the sky, and in an instant several bolts of lightning fell to the ground, circling around Tirion. The power of the elements even formed some kind of electrostatic field.Except for a few lucky ones who besieged Tirion, the death knights used necromancy energy to isolate themselves from the paralysis caused by lightning. The rest of them were all covered in crackling arcs of electricity, and their movements were a few beats slower.

Seeing this opportunity, Tirion immediately injected holy energy into the artifact, and the Silver Hand emblem on the war hammer burst out with dazzling light.With a roar, a massive amount of blazing holy light spurted out, and all the death knights around him were thrown far away.Even the huge angry guards were blown away like tiny rag dolls, leaving very few survivors.

As the enemies fell one after another, the encirclement was finally broken.Across the battlefield where meat was still being minced and killed, Tirion saw Drek'Thar, who was guarded by dozens of Frostwolf orcs in the distance, tiredly lowering his raised hands, with white arcs of electricity flashing in his palms.

As he approached his allies, Tirion saw the tall and thin Angmar behind the battle formation, his eyes tightly closed, and the Flame Strike he held in his hands slowly rose into the air.Golden light spread from the blood elves' handed down artifacts, dyeing half of the battlefield golden. The warm energy contained in it made people feel comfortable, as if they were being illuminated by the holy light.

On the ground beneath Angmar, Dathrohan and Liadrin, the leader of the Blood Knights, faced off against the two powerful Dreadlords.The Dread Lord's goal seemed to be Angmar in mid-air, but he was unable to do so due to obstruction.

In the distance, the Ashbringer suppressed a Dread Lord with one of its wings broken and was defeated steadily. The low-level undead corpses around him were a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood. It was impossible to count whether there were hundreds or thousands.

A wave of arrows came, shooting down a group of undead who wanted to drag Tirion back into the encirclement.Under the leadership of Lor'themar Theron, the Farstrider rangers occupied a high slope and provided long-range fire support to friendly forces from the commanding heights.In fact, rather than occupying the high slope, it is better to say that it is blocked on the high slope, because countless undead are launching a fierce attack on the ranger.Looking at the strength comparison between the two sides, the Farstrider Rangers were not only unable to break through and escape, but were even at risk of being annihilated.

The battle in the air has also come to an end. Even though the numbers are far inferior to the opponent, the combined force of dragon eagle and griffon still defeated the overwhelming number of gargoyles.Except for a few small-scale battles that are still breaking out in several places, most of the air forces have begun to support the coalition's ground forces.

This is the only good news.

The battlefield was in chaos, and everywhere was filled with the dangerous plague gas left behind after the bombing of the meat grinder. The pain of the wounded, and the unconscious grunts of the infected when they were about to fall, were all deaf to the ears.

The situation is precarious.

Just like Tirion, even with full psychological expectations, the difficulty of this battle far exceeded everyone's expectations.

Suddenly, everyone on the battlefield was shocked for no reason, and they all looked at a certain corner of the battlefield.

A lich slowly "stepped into" the battlefield.The cold necromantic energy lingering around the Lich even distorts the light, making it impossible to ignore the fact that this will be the most powerful enemy they have ever faced.

As the sound of chanting incantations echoed across the battlefield as if from the abyss, the Lich raised a bony hand.
