The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

Chapter 521: Broken Helmet and Broken Sword

"Mage Tower ready!"

The magician next to him stood on the terrace, gathered powerful magic power in his hands, and threw it at the demon in the distance.

The magic fireball flew in a parabolic trajectory, passed over the human army's heads, and landed heavily in the center of the charging demons.

The flames exploded, burning the demons near the landing point into charcoal, but the demons behind them quickly extinguished the flames and continued their attack.

Li took out a telescope and carefully examined the results of the fireball attack.

"Killed four demons..."

The result was not satisfactory. The long-range magic fireball had too little lethality to the demon.

It’s not that the magic is not powerful enough, but that the fireball is not flying fast enough.

The huge fireball, which is condensed by using up all the magic power of a low-level wizard, cannot fly too fast in the air.

If the fireball flies too fast, it will risk self-disintegration, and high-altitude air currents will also cause the flame to extinguish, reducing the power of the magic.

The fireball thrown slowly was like a stone thrown from an ancient catapult. Although it was extremely powerful, one could discern the angle and position of the target as long as one looked up.

When the fireball hits the demon formation, the demons near the landing point can quickly avoid the magic damage to the greatest extent.

The magic tower standing inside the harbor city didn't kill many demons with one round of magic.

The magician was replaced by another one, who continued to stand on the terrace and throw fireballs into the distance.

Li thought that if he replaced the fireball with Yi Tou Bao, which had a faster firing speed, the killing effect would be much better.

“Why don’t you use EasyTribute?”

"Easy Investment Treasure? What is that?"

The mages and soldiers next to him all looked confused, and their confusion made Li very puzzled.

The southern coast is the kingdom's most important line of defense. New weapons produced in the north cannot be obtained here, but the kingdom is also imitating them. Why not give them to the soldiers here?

No matter how you look at it, this battlefield is the most convenient place to test new weapons.

"It's a new type of weapon. Don't you have any here?"

No one could answer Li's question. After a brief moment of surprise, the magicians and soldiers continued with their work.

As for the Mage Tower, its impact on the battlefield can be basically ignored. The real fighters against the demons are still the soldiers standing ready on the beach.

"Everyone! Prepare for battle!"

Those on the battlefield were all veterans. They did not waver or show any fear in the face of the demons rushing towards them.

The demons that were attacking the human army seemed to have no fear and advanced forward despite the bombardment from the wizard tower.

The demon in lobster form bounced forward. The direction of each jump was not fixed, and his route was unpredictable.

The sturdy shell demons can directly withstand the long-range weapons of humans. They move very slowly, but provide solid protection for other demons.

The crab demon hid behind the shell demon, and its powerful claws kept opening and closing, making a scary clicking sound.

The demons were generally large in size, and although they seemed to have taken only a few steps, they were actually moving very quickly.

The human soldiers only felt that a bunch of large trucks covered with seafood shells were rushing towards them.

"Ah! Kill!"

The infantry moved forward, and the warriors holding heavy shields stood in the first row.

Behind the heavy shields are javelin throwers and archers. The old formation lacks variety, which also means that it is very useful.

After a round of spears and arrows, the demons fell down visibly.

Some murloc demons were nailed to the ground by spears and screamed miserably.

The demons suffered casualties and became increasingly crazy.

Several sea urchin demons hiding in the team, with spikes all over their bodies, slammed into the human shield bearer.

The spikes of the sea urchin demon are hard and sharp. Some shield bearers had flaws in their shields and were directly pierced through the body by the spikes.

"Ah! Help me!"

The soldiers whose bodies were pierced did not die. They screamed in pain and rolled with the sea urchin demons.

The cruel scene deterred other soldiers. Seeing the sea urchin demon rolling towards them, the soldiers subconsciously wanted to dodge.

"Sword skill, eggshell cut!"

A flash of sword light passed by, and the rolling sea urchin was directly split in half horizontally.

With its balance destroyed and its body incomplete, the Sea Urchin Demon was stuck on the ground and died among the shield soldiers.

"It's General Mueller!"

Seeing Muller resolve the threat with one sword, everyone's morale instantly boosted.

Other sea urchin demons were also repelled by generals and soldiers. Although there were flaws in their formation, they still maintained the courage to fight against the demons.

"Cavalry, follow me!"

Muller shouted loudly, calling on the knights around him to charge with him.

Muller lowered the visor of his helmet, straightened up his solid brick wall, and galloped towards the demon.

Muller led the cavalry in a diagonal charge, easily cutting off a small piece in the demon's formation.

The infantry regiment behind immediately followed and quickly eliminated these demons that had separated from the main force.

Muller ignored the battle behind him and continued to lead the knights to charge horizontally.

The cavalry charged, bearing the greatest pressure, while the infantry moved forward to cover and destroy the charging demons.

As long as the human race does not retreat, it is only a matter of time before the demons are destroyed.

This is true, but generals such as Mueller are not in an easy mood.

"General Mueller, the shield soldiers have suffered heavy casualties."

The shield soldiers' formation was broken by the demons. The problem was not with the soldiers themselves, but with the shields they held and the armor they wore.

In order to make it easier for him to talk to his men, Mueller raised his visor.

"Send a team to support..."

As soon as Muller opened his mouth, the visor fell down with a bang, trapping Muller's words inside the armor.

The scene was completely silent; even the battle not far away seemed to have paused for a moment.

Mueller didn't care and reached out to lift up the visor again.

Bang.

The buckle of the visor was broken, and no matter how Mueller adjusted it, the visor could not be opened.

Muller was a little angry, especially about these damn protective gear, which had fallen into disrepair and harmed his own soldiers.

Muller used force with his hands to break the connection between the helmet and the neck. Muller picked up the helmet and smashed it hard on the ground.

"Everyone, follow me and kill!"

"…kill!"

People are not afraid of dying on the battlefield, but they are afraid of losing their lives due to poor logistics.

Even a general like Mueller did not have the conditions to repair the damage to his armor, which shows how much pressure the soldiers stationed in the port city were under.

Mueller, with no helmet and blond hair, fought surrounded by demons. He was so conspicuous that countless demons rushed up to drown the human commander, but all fell under his sword.

Until there was a clang, and the long sword in Muller's hand broke because it could not bear the weight.

The lieutenant dragged Mueller away and took him off the battlefield.

The battle between humans and demons has almost come to an end.

The human race won, but not many people smiled.
