Chapter 532 Skeleton Mage!
As the order was given, the guards retreated several dozen meters away with swords, shields in hand.
And in just over ten seconds, densely packed skeleton soldiers had appeared near the Moonlight Fruit Tree, at least three or four hundred of them.
Most of these skeleton soldiers were rushing towards them, with only a few dozen circling around the moonlight fruit tree.
Four or five skeleton soldiers who looked like longbowmen were drawing their bows and trying to shoot the guards in the book.
Unfortunately, although the longbow body was not completely rotten, the bowstring had long been gone, so the longbow skeleton soldier could not shoot any arrows at all.
The guards who were picking moonlight fruits on the tree dared not move and held on to the tree trunk tightly for fear of falling down.
"You guys continue to pick the moonlight spirit fruit carefully, don't fall! We will come back to pick you up later."
Seeing hundreds of skeleton soldiers coming towards them, Lachi and his men quickly discussed the matter and shouted to the guards on the trees.
Although there are some dangers, they seem to be under control for now, so they are not going to give up the Moonlight Fruit. Anyway, they will have to rescue several guards at that time, which does not conflict with picking the fruit.
The guards over there heard the orders from Daurachi and others, and realized that the skeleton soldiers could not attack them, so they immediately began to carefully continue picking the moonlight spirit fruits.
"kill!"
The picking continued over there, and hundreds of skeleton soldiers on their side finally rushed to the front. With a loud shout, they raised their shields and collided with the skeleton soldiers.
Although the guards brought by Laci and others were all silver knights and gold knights, these skeleton soldiers were actually not weak either. Not only did they have helmets, armor, and round shields for protection, but these were obviously all forged with mithril.
If you don't use a lot of strength to chop, it's impossible to kill these skeleton soldiers.
"Necromancer is awesome, I want to learn it too!"
After Gervis quickly released two large fireballs to eliminate two skeleton soldiers who wanted to launch a sneak attack on the guards, he exclaimed in his heart how powerful the necromancer was.
They are much stronger than ordinary human soldiers. Gervis has seen many skeleton soldiers whose arms and legs were chopped off, but they were still alive and kicking.
Some of them even had their wrists chopped off and were left without weapons, so they simply used their sharp hand bones to stab into the guards' bodies.
There is only one way to kill these skeleton soldiers, and that is to smash their heads or chop them off directly, because the source of the skeleton soldiers' energy is the green flame in their eyes, and they will not die until the green fire is extinguished.
These skeleton soldiers were fearless and numerous. As long as they were equipped with excellent weapons and armor, Gervis felt that they could crush the elite legions of the great nobles in Eurasia.
"Purify the Holy Light!"
At this time, Adela, the beautiful rich girl, also caught Gervis' attention.
Because Adela's Holy Light skill is too effective against skeleton soldiers.
Gervis's fireball can only destroy the target it hits by exploding.
However, Adela's holy light purification is different. A beam of holy light can actually penetrate two or three skeleton soldiers.
Although the appearance of these skeleton soldiers hit by the holy light was intact, the faint green light in their eyes would immediately disappear, and then the entire skeleton soldier would fall apart, with their helmets and armor falling to the ground with clanging sounds.
"They're retreating!"
The fierce battle lasted for more than a minute. Gervis and his men lost two guards, seven or eight guards were seriously injured, and most of the skeleton soldiers' lives were harvested.
Originally, everyone wanted to kill these skeleton soldiers in one go, but they didn't expect that the skeleton soldiers who were originally fearless of death would actually start to retreat.
"Chase, you killed our people and you're trying to run away? No way!"
"Kill! Don't let them get away!"
When Lachi, Deville and the others saw the skeleton soldiers running away, they immediately shouted louder and louder, fearing that Adela didn't know how brave they were.
Adela frowned slightly, but in the end did not say anything to stop him and followed behind.
Although I don't know why these skeleton soldiers suddenly ran away, this place has a history of two or three hundred years, and the owner of the magician's tower should have died long ago, so there is no need to worry about any fraud.
When the skeleton soldiers retreated to the bottom of the moonlight fruit tree, they stopped, as if they came here specifically to join up with the dozens of remaining skeleton soldiers.
After the skeleton soldiers stopped, Laci and others came chasing after them, and then the two sides fought again.
Gervis and three trainee mages stood with Adela and the others, more than ten meters away from the battlefield ahead.
They did not immediately release magic to attack the skeleton soldiers, but instead controlled the situation from the rear, which was the main responsibility of an apprentice magician in battle.
The battle situation is now clear, and they will not take action unless there is an emergency.
Because even if an apprentice magician holds a staff, releasing five or six fireballs is already the limit.
If you want to continue casting spells, you can either drink a magic recovery potion or start meditating immediately to restore your magic power.
Therefore, unless one of the guards is in danger of life, they will immediately release magic to rescue him.
The battlefield ahead attracted everyone's attention, but no one expected that just four meters behind them, the soil was slowly rising.
As the bulge in the mud grew bigger and bigger, a skull suddenly emerged silently from the mud.
The fire in the eyes of this skeleton head was actually red, which was obviously different from those green skeleton soldiers.
After the skull emerged from the ground, it first looked at Gervis and others with its empty eyes, and when it found that no one noticed it, it slowly crawled out by supporting itself with its hands.
This skeleton soldier with red flames in his eye sockets was not tall, obviously a head shorter than the other skeleton soldiers.
He didn't wear any armor, only a staff held in his bony hands.
The staff was made entirely of wood, except for a skull inlaid on the top, which was exactly the same as the one brought back by Laci's two scouts.
This is a relatively rare red bone skeleton, and it is also a skeleton mage.
After the Skeleton Mage stood firm, the red flames in his empty eyes began to flicker inexplicably, and his arm holding the staff began to wave rhythmically.
"Hmm? What's that noise?"
Gervis is not only a magician, but also a silver knight, so he immediately noticed the movement when the skeleton wizard waved his arm.
In addition to the sound of the skeleton wizard waving his staff, there are actually a lot of green skeletons making clicking sounds in the back.
Although those green skeletons were broken up and crippled, the green fire in their heads had not yet gone out and they were still struggling.
Lachi and others were so eager to pursue that they had no time to take care of the battlefield.
At this time, Gervis found that the sound of bones he heard was too rhythmic, so he turned around and looked back in confusion.
"careful"
When Gervis turned around, he saw the red wizard skeleton holding a staff. He was immediately shocked and loudly reminded Adela and others.
He really didn't know that there were magicians among the skeleton soldiers.
At this time, the skeleton wizard had finished casting the spell, and there was a fist-sized light green netherworld fireball in front of him.
And just before he shouted "Be careful", the netherworld fireball had already shot towards everyone.
When Adela and the others heard Gervis's shout, they subconsciously turned their heads to look. When they saw the netherworld fireball flying towards them, they were immediately shocked.
The three trainee mages stood there in a daze, apparently not yet able to react.
Adela wanted to dodge because the fireball was coming towards her, but it was obviously too late.
This red skeleton wizard obviously has some intelligence, and light magicians are the most hated existences by all dark creatures.
So the Skeleton Mage deliberately launched a sneak attack just to get rid of Adela, the light magician.
