Chapter 279 Ultimate Spellcasting, a Specialty of Spellcasters?
A young mage student said with a hint of admiration, "The first and most difficult wave of demonic invasion was withstood by Ark's summoned skeleton army."
Looks like we can finally catch our breath.
The rest should be no challenge for the Ark developers.
The student next to him chimed in, "Yes, if the Ark can quickly repair the fortifications around the shelter before the next attack, then the upcoming battle shouldn't be a problem."
After all, we all know how powerful the shelter's defenses are.
At this moment, Lu Yiyi turned to Lu Renjia and said, "Do you remember how difficult it was when we were exploring the 'Defense of the Shelter' on Normal difficulty?"
Facing this ram-headed monster warband led by the black-armored abyss knights was a nightmare.
We tried for several days before we finally managed to find a solution.
I never expected that I would be able to clear the game without facing any threat at all, thanks to the powerful Ark.
Upon hearing this, Lu Renjia shook his head slightly and said with some anticipation, "The combat power of Boss Fangzhou is too overpowered."
I think his goal is not limited to just passing the game.
He'll definitely want to wipe out all the goat-headed monsters to get a perfect score.
Upon hearing this, Lu Yiyi's face showed an expression of disbelief.
"How is that possible?"
Those goat-headed cavalrymen wouldn't have foolishly charged into our defensive positions if it weren't for the system's requirement for them to attack the shelter.
Once the casualties exceed a certain limit, they will naturally retreat; they will never foolishly stand still and wait to be wiped out.
Moreover, once they decide to flee the battlefield, how could the Ark possibly catch up with their speed?
Lu Renjia didn't know what tactics Fangzhou would use.
He was just watching Fang Zhou's calm expression on the live stream when he inexplicably had this feeling.
So he said, "Let's wait and see. The Ark team will definitely not let us down."
Meanwhile, in the simulated battlefield...
Ark is commanding his army of skeletons to execute a bold strategic decision that has caught all onlookers off guard.
As the sound of horses' hooves grew louder in the jungle outside the sanctuary, he knew that reinforcements from the Goat-Headed Creed were approaching.
Faced with this unexpected turn of events, Ark did not choose to hold out, but instead directly ordered the skeleton army to demolish the already battered wooden walls.
With a deafening crash, dozens of skeleton soldiers were exposed to the Goat-Headed Legion, becoming their live targets.
The collapse of the wooden wall not only complicated the battlefield situation but also put the skeleton army in an extremely unfavorable position.
However, this was precisely part of Ark's meticulous planning.
In the dense forest, the Abyss Knight, clad in black armor, was puzzled by the Ark's decision, but he would never let go of such a favorable opportunity to attack.
Thus, under the cover of the Dark Shroud spell cast by the Terrorwing, nearly a hundred goat-headed monsters, commanded by the Black Armored Abyss Riders who had changed their mounts, charged towards the skeleton army like a raging storm.
Their eyes burned with fierce flames, their mouths emitted deafening roars, and the air was filled with a strong killing intent.
The black-armored Abyss Knight took the lead and charged into the battle.
At the same time, Ark also seized the opportunity to cast skills such as "Death Coronation", "Iron Wall Aura" and "Brutal Aura" on Olaf, greatly enhancing the combat power of this skeleton warrior.
Olaf, wielding two axes, resolutely met the charge of the black-armored Abyss Knight.
When the black longsword clashed with the double axes forged from bones, the sound was as awe-inspiring as thunder, each impact accompanied by a deafening roar.
Abyssal energy and death energy intertwined and fought, forming a unique energy storm that nearly devoured everything around it.
The black-armored Abyss Knight steadily received the first and second axe blows, showing no sign of backing down.
However, the giant skeletal axe that Olaf used was incredibly heavy.
By the time of the third axe blow, the Black Armored Abyss Knight's wrist had begun to tremble slightly, as if each additional strike he parried was consuming a tremendous amount of his strength.
When the fourth axe fell, it finally forced the Black Armored Abyss Knight to take a step back.
His expression was solemn, as if he felt unprecedented pressure.
Just as the battle was raging, a sudden gust of wind descended from the sky.
Looking up, Ark saw the Dreadwing Demon spreading its large bat wings and swooping down on him like an arrow released from a bow.
A bloodthirsty red light gleamed in those narrow eyes.
"Boom!"
The sound of a bowstring vibrating came from beside me.
Then the dinosaur let out a strange roar, as if it had been prepared, its body suddenly trembled and its wings rapidly flipped.
Its entire body drew a series of dazzling arcs in the air.
However, before it could even catch its breath after completing this series of amazing evasive maneuvers, an even more resounding bowstring twang pierced the sky.
This time, the Dreadwing Demon didn't have time to dodge and could only barely raise its left claw to block in front of it.
An arrow, with unstoppable force, pierced fiercely into the claws of the Dreadwing Demon.
With a muffled thud, a stream of dark red blood, mixed with fear and pain, gushed out, forming a shocking blood mist in the air.
Li Guang, this seasoned and ruthless swordsman, remained calm and composed.
He gripped the longbow, meticulously crafted from precious silver fir wood, tightly in his hand.
All around him, arrows were neatly arranged on the ground, their tips pointing downwards, deeply embedded in the solid soil.
Faced with the vicious curse uttered by the Terrorwing Demon, Li Guang simply smiled faintly, and then without hesitation, nocked the second arrow onto the bowstring.
In his first attack, he did not use his full strength; he only used about 80% of his strength to draw the bowstring without actually shooting an arrow.
However, it was precisely this seemingly bluffing behavior that instilled unprecedented fear in the Dreadwing, causing it to react so dramatically in the air.
When the real attack came, the Dreadwing had lost any chance to fight back.
This arrow not only pierced the body of the Terrorwing Demon, but also left an indelible shadow in the depths of its soul.
In fact, as intelligence gatherers and battlefield supporters in the demon army, the Terrorwings are far less powerful than other demons of the same level.
They are more accustomed to swooping down from high altitudes, enjoying the sight of ground creatures scattering in despair.
Now, facing Li Guang, an incredibly accurate marksman, the Dreadwing Demon can no longer bear the oppressive feeling of being locked on.
Ultimately, it chose to escape the sky, fall to the ground, and hide among the swarming ram-headed monsters, attempting to use the cover of these ground troops to launch an attack on the Ark crew.
A cacophony of sounds, mixed with the screeching laughter of hyenas, pierced through the clamor of the battlefield; it was the hoarse yet piercing roar unique to the goat-headed monsters.
Immediately afterwards, dozens of short javelins pierced the air, carrying a deathly whistle and an unstoppable momentum, tearing through the air and hurtling towards the direction where Fangzhou and the others were.
Olaf, who was fighting the Black Armored Abyss Knight, saw this and forcefully swung his axe, forcing his opponent back several steps.
Then, it shouted loudly, directing more than twenty giant shield-bearing skeletons to quickly form a solid defensive line.
These skeleton soldiers quickly stood side by side, raising their heavy bone shields high to form a solid barrier.
The short javelins rained down on the skeletal shield, producing dull thuds, but failed to break through the defensive line made of skeletons.
After being forced back, the Black Armored Abyss Knight breathed a sigh of relief, feeling his wrists become sore and weak from continuously withstanding Olaf's fierce attacks.
Instead of immediately launching a counterattack, he retreated a few steps and hid among the ram-headed monsters, temporarily escaping the core of the battle. Previously, Olaf's offensive had been exceptionally fierce, almost overwhelming the Black Armored Abyss Knight, leaving him powerless to fight back. Olaf's relentless pressure made the Abyss Knight appear utterly pathetic.
But at this moment, everything has changed.
The black-armored Abyss Knight grinned maliciously, sheathed his jet-black longsword, and took out a black longbow that was half a person's height from his side.
He roared, "Foolish humans, die!"
With a ferocious shout, he suddenly drew back his longbow, and the sharp arrow was aimed straight at the heart of the ark!
At this critical moment, Ark's voice suddenly rang out from the army of skeletons.
"Skeleton Lock!"
"Charging reel!"
"Bone Spears!"
Immediately afterwards, a dark black light flashed.
A razor-sharp skeletal spear, imbued with various damaging attributes such as death energy and putrefaction, spun out, leaving a trail of dark energy flames behind it.
A chilling aura suddenly filled the air, sending shivers down one's spine.
The skeletal spear launched from the Ark, both in its size and the energy it contained, gave off an extremely dangerous feeling.
It far exceeds the scope of high-level spells that ordinary apprentices can cast.
This is because Ark seized the critical moment when the Black Armored Abyss Knight raised his bow and fired, and directly used the Charged Scroll, a common white artifact, which greatly enhanced the power of the skeletal weapon.
A piercing scream, like a sharp blade slicing through the sky, burst forth from the dense horde of goat-headed monsters.
The most perceptive of the Terrorwings chose to flee immediately.
Its instincts told it that if it didn't run, it would die!
Its enormous wings suddenly spread out, creating a gust of wind that almost instantly knocked several goat-headed monsters to the ground. With the powerful thrust of its wings, the Dreadwing's body quickly rose into the air, attempting to escape the threat of the skeletal spear.
However, as the Terrorwing took flight, everyone realized that the Bone Spear was actually incredibly fast.
The Terrorwing Demon had barely risen two meters high when the Bone Spear, as if attracted by its movement, drew a jet-black arc and fell down upon it.
As the skeletal spear hurtled towards him, the Dreadwing felt as if a sun composed of death energy had descended upon him, causing all the fluids in his body to boil violently in an instant.
It instinctively opened its mouth wide and let out a piercing cry, a sound filled with despair and helplessness.
Just how terrifying is this bone spear that can elicit such a piercing, high-pitched scream from a cruel and merciless dinosaur?
What happened next was beyond everyone's wildest imagination.
The moment the skeletal spear made contact with the Terrorwing Demon, it released unimaginable energy, creating a massive explosion that covered an area of tens of meters.
At the epicenter of the explosion, everything was destroyed by devastating force.
The screams of the Terrorwing Demon abruptly ceased at that moment, replaced by a deafening roar.
The energy wave generated by the explosion surged like a tsunami, instantly engulfing all the surrounding goat-headed monsters.
Neither the warriors riding on the black monsters nor the elites wearing fire-resistant demon leather armor could escape the impact of this death energy.
Without the slightest hesitation, Fang Zhou waved the crystal ball in his hand and began casting a spell with incredible speed.
Five death ripples were released in succession, landing precisely on the goat-headed monster battle group that was thrown into chaos by the attack of the bone spears.
At the same time, dozens of skeletal archers behind the lines drew their bows and fired skeletal arrows at the bewildered enemy.
There were no long cries of agony, only a deafening roar, after which a massive cloud of death appeared before everyone's eyes.
Then, the cloud slowly rose into the air and gathered into a huge gray pillar with a diameter of more than ten meters, like a monument made of death and destruction standing on the battlefield.
As the gray pillar rose, a violent shockwave surged outwards.
If those giant shields hadn't stood shoulder to shoulder at the front line in time, the refugees in the shelter would have been torn to pieces, or even seriously injured.
The towering gray energy column gradually lowered and then disappeared.
The once-proud ram-headed monster army has vanished without a trace, leaving only a desolate land of black interspersed with dark red remnants.
The oppressive aftershocks of energy rushed towards us, sending chills down our spines.
Even soldiers accustomed to the brutality of the battlefield couldn't help but feel awe and reverence for this power.
In these ruins, only the black-armored Abyss Knight still stands tall.
He barely supported his body with that jet-black longsword, and the black smoke emanating from his entire body's armor made it seem as if hellfire was burning inside him.
A layer of black abyssal energy still covered his body, but it had become extremely weak, almost transparent, as if it would dissipate into nothingness at any moment.
The hooded cloak that the Abyss Knight was wearing was also turned to ash in the baptism of the death ripples.
The terrifying face covered in tumors and strange tissues was completely exposed to everyone, causing Fang Zhou to hold his breath.
