Alien Knights

Carroll used all his strength to press the tower shield against the front while shouting: "Keep the battle line! Keep the battle line! Don't let any undead crawl over!"

The densely packed corpses attacked the shield formation. From a height, it looked like a thin breakwater blocking the tsunami in the storm.

The werewolf Aldenan stood on his tiptoes and raised his figure, like a hunter searching for prey, staring wide-eyed at the surging undead outside the shield wall.

He suddenly raised the crossbow, put his finger on the trigger, and shouted: "Thirty meters ahead, fast alien undead!"

A crossbow arrow shot out of the wind and accurately pierced the eyebrow of the alien undead spirit.

Throwing the crossbow in his hand backward, Aldenan reached out and took off the second crossbow from Carroll's back.

Aldenan raised the second crossbow and was about to continue looking for the next target when he suddenly noticed movement behind him.

Turning his head, the werewolf saw a trembling and helpless human soldier.

"Idiot! How long do you want to be in a daze?"

The human soldiers, who had just woken up from a dream, quickly picked up the crossbow machine on the ground and hurriedly began to load the crossbow bolts.

More and more undead were attacking outside the shield wall. They were stacked on top of each other, and some even climbed along the tower shield to the top of the shield.

Carroll picked up the giant ax with one hand, looked at the undead dog climbing up, swung it in a circle, and chopped it into two pieces.

The pikemen standing behind the shield wall also moved forward, stabbing down the undead climbing above the shield array.

Carroll wiped the parasites crawling around his face with his arm and said loudly to the orc heavy infantry beside him: "Follow the training before the war, one round every half minute, step back five steps to leave space!"

Aldenan fired another crossbow bolt, pinning a stone-skinned alien undead to the ground, and shouted to Carol: "Left front, eleven o'clock direction, seventy meters, spherical undead!"

A human wing commander heard this and rang the bell on his waist: "Grenadier! Mark seventy! High throwing line!"

A group of soldiers wearing light armor picked up tools like slings, loaded the fully wrapped small spores into them, and then swung the ropes to throw them out.

Following parabolas, the spore parasites fell into the corpses in front of the shield wall, and waves of air caused by violent explosions shook the entire defensive line.

After the explosion, Carroll suddenly felt that the pressure from the front of the shield wall was much lighter.

He took a breath and said to the orc comrades beside him: "Raise the shield wall and prepare to retreat!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a sharp bone spur burst out of the corpse group, penetrated the tower shield, and penetrated directly into the head of the orc in front of Carol.

Watching the orc comrades in front of him slowly fall down, Carol opened his eyes wide, as if he couldn't believe what he saw.

Aldenan's warning sound sounded at this time: "There is a new alien undead spirit with bone spurs all over its body, and it is approaching!"

Carroll dropped his giant axe, looked at his orc comrade who was slowly slumping over, held on to the tower shield next to him that was about to fall, and shouted towards Aldenan: "Kill that guy!"

The werewolf raised the crossbow, took aim, and then fired the crossbow bolt. Unexpectedly, the Bone Spike Necromancer moved very quickly and turned sideways to avoid the crossbow bolt.

Carol, who was struggling to support the two tower shields with two hands, used all his strength to resist the impact of the undead outside the shield wall.

Aldenan raised the other crossbow with the arrows loaded again, raised his head, and found that the bone-spurred undead had approached to a position only twenty meters away from the shield wall.

The bone-spurred undead dodged round after round of crossbow bolts, dodged the attacks of dozens of spears, climbed up the shield wall, and jumped directly into the defensive line eight meters away from Carroll and Aldenan.

Seeing the bone-spurred undead break through the shield wall and jump into the crowd, but did not take any offensive action and just lay motionless on the ground, Aldernan subconsciously felt that something was wrong.

Throwing down the crossbow, Aldenan pulled Carroll to the ground while shouting: "Get down!"

In an instant, the bone spurs on the Bone Spur Undead shot out in all directions like a shower of flowers, instantly turning the space with a radius of ten meters around them into a death zone.

Bone spurs carrying huge kinetic energy can easily penetrate steel and flesh. Only multi-layer composite dragon bone armor can provide some defense.

Under such an attack, a large area of ​​the orcs and humans fell instantly.

Carroll stared blankly at everything not far away, and suddenly turned his head to look in the direction of the defense line.

The collapse of a shield was like a domino, triggering a chain effect, and a huge gap was immediately torn open in the entire defense line.

Thousands of undead swarmed in from the gap and began to slaughter all the creatures in front of them.

An orc commander dropped his shield and completely gave up on defense. He held an ax in both hands regardless of life and death, and killed dozens of undead. However, he was dragged down by more undead, and was finally thrown to the ground and torn apart. bite.

Carroll, who witnessed all this with his own eyes, stood up and let out a roar that shook the sky. He kicked down the undead that came towards him, then picked up the giant ax on the ground and wanted to rush forward to join the battle line.

Aldenan grabbed him: "Are you crazy? The defense line can't be defended! Did you hear what I said?! The defense line can't be defended anymore!"

Carroll pushed Aldenan away, strode across the pile of corpses, swung the giant axe, split an undead in half from head to toe, and then punched another one directly. Undead head.

Lowering his body, Carol dodged the bite of a giant undead bear, and then used the power of his back to slam into it, knocking it into the air and knocking down a bunch of undead in front of him.

Aldenan rushed up, picked up a broken spear on the ground, threw it with all his strength, and pierced the head of a strange undead creature that was spitting acid.

The werewolf ran to Carol and yelled at the latter: "You know what? This is suicide!"

Carroll chopped down the undead giant bear that charged again with his axe, and said, "At least I can kill a few of these disgusting monsters before I die!"

Aldenan sighed, completely giving up his plan of persuasion, turned around and stood back to back with Carol, and began to concentrate on dealing with the undead around him.

Just as the two were concentrating on killing the enemy, a bone-piercing undead crawled on the ground, using the cover of the corpse to slowly approach them.

Looking at the backs of the two of them, the Bone Spur Necromancer stood up, with the bone spurs on his back standing upright and trembling slightly.

Just when the bone-spurred undead was about to launch an attack, a black knight's spear pierced directly through its body.

The knights of Muxi Knights rushed directly into the undead corpses in a sharp charge formation, slowly turning the situation of the battle that was originally collapsing around.

Alfonso Decavo swung his spear, threw the body of the bone-spurred undead to the ground, and said to Carroll and Aldenan in front of him: "Retreat and regroup!"

Ardenan looked at the knights whizzing past in front of him, and gasped like he was surviving a disaster.

Carol looked at Alfonso and asked in confusion: "You? Aren't you at the rear of the entire battlefield? Why are you here?"

Alfonso raised his spear and pointed in the direction of the Falling Star Mountains: "We have a reinforcement."

Carroll looked in the direction and saw that at the edge of the battlefield, there was a large number of special troops that moved extremely fast and were constantly reducing the number of undead.

Carol had a vague impression of the creature running at the forefront of the army.

The creature was more than ten meters long, and its thorny tail like a steel whip accounted for half of its length.

Its entire body is light gray, with a layer of weird mucus on its surface. Once exposed to light, a wonderful visual illusion appears, allowing this creature to blend in with its surroundings.

It has extremely explosive limbs and a streamlined body suitable for swift and stealthy actions. Its posture looks like a leopard, but its body is much larger.

On its long neck, there is a huge fleshy sac that opens and closes. It is usually shrunk in the abdominal cavity and is only exposed outside the body when needed.

The appearance of its head can only be found in horror legends.

A pair of completely black oval eyes with no pupils, two pairs of strange mouthparts that resemble insect jaws, and dozens of tentacles hanging from the top of the head constitute the most frightening aspect of this monster.

"Shadow..."

Aldenan spoke the creature's name.
