Age of Adepts

With a painful and angry growl, the orc shaman finally fell under the attack of Amus and Greem.

Several shield guards who had been prepared for a long time took heavy steps, dragging the scorched body of the orc shaman and the dying Lei Peng back to the back of the battlefield.

Greem and Ames didn't hesitate at all, and after a short communication, they jumped up and rushed towards another third-level centaur who was alone.

In other corners of the battlefield, the Goblin Rippers driven by Mary and Tigule were also secretly hunting and killing the Tier 2 orcs who were trapped in the siege.

With the witch side fully dominant, the main force of the orcs was blocked in the sky again, so there were no powerful elites among the 2nd and 3rd tier powerhouses left on the battlefield.

On the other hand, the wizards are all good at weird and strange witchcraft, and moreover they fight more than they do. Therefore, looking at the entire battlefield, you can see tragic scenes of strong orcs being besieged almost everywhere. As these elite orcs were eradicated one by one, the orc legion, which was already on the verge of collapse, finally began to collapse.

War has never been so cruel!

If the orcs were as imposing as a rainbow, they would dare to charge swiftly against the tide of corpses even with a hundred of them. But once the morale collapsed, even if the orc army still had nearly 20,000 troops left, they would run like a flock of ducks, panicking all day long.

The senior witches had already made up their minds to take down that dry water city, so how could they allow the remnants of the orcs to withdraw smoothly. Driven by the death witch, a large number of undead corpses swarmed in the direction of the retreating orcs, and those semi-shadow creatures were even more elusive, constantly attacking the retreating orcs from the side.

The plane battlefield is a full 110 miles away from the dry water city.

Before, the orc army discarded most of the heavy equipment after receiving the oracle, and rushed to the witch's portal for a long distance in one breath. It's a pity that the bloody battle lasted for eight hours, but it fell short in the end!

Even though the physique of the orcs was several times that of humans, after such a toss, they were all tired and weak, and it was almost difficult to move.

After a bloody battle, many orc warriors were exhausted and collapsed on the ground. Even if the swarming undead dragged them into the black tide of corpses, they were powerless to resist.

All the way to defeat, all the way to lose armor...

The defeat of the orc army was a disaster, it was too horrible to look at!

The ones who suffered the worst defeat were the besieged orc commandos. Although they were not inferior to those high-level witches in terms of rank, they were far from the opponents of witches of the same rank in terms of real combat power.

After annihilating nearly half of the powerful orcs in one breath, several witch leaders discussed, and the leader of the death witch, Csuna, drove the tide of corpses and continued to hunt down the remnants of the orcs, while the leader of the dark witch, Circe, led the shadow army to take a shortcut Straight to attack that dry water city.

As for the Fate Witches who are not strong enough, they simply cleaned the battlefield with the Winter Witches and Pain Witches, and began to slowly move towards Drywater City with the spoils.

And that portal, after teleporting all the witch troops, has been slowly closed.

When all the orcs and witches left this gravel wilderness one after another, only patches of charred bones and dark bloodstains remained.

…………

Dry Water City.

It was Dawa, the leader of the Stone Hammer tribe, who stayed in the city to preside over the defense affairs.

After receiving the oracle from the beast god, Dry Water City dispatched 50,000 elite orcs one after another, rushing for hundreds of miles to attack the invading witch's portal. And Dawa stayed in the city, while mobilizing the surrounding vitality, while paying close attention to the distant battlefield.

At around 3 p.m., the first batch of retreating orc troops were discovered by the Harpy patrols going out.

And within the next 2 hours, Dawa received one piece of bad news one after another that was more terrifying than the last one!

The orc army was defeated by the witch army from across the plane!

The witch troop is driving the remnants of the orcs towards Drywater City with a terrifying tide of corpses.

What surprised Dawa even more was that in the other direction, the wolf cavalry patrols and harpies sent by Dry Water City disappeared inexplicably.

According to the military system of the orcs, all patrols and sentries need to send information to Dry Water City at regular intervals. But now, Dry Water City has lost contact with several sentries outside the city, and even the team sent to investigate the situation has not returned.

This... is undoubtedly bad news that can't be worse!

The enemy seemed to want to take advantage of the defeat of the elite orc army to take Dry Water City directly. Although Dawa could see this, he was so helpless.

After all, Quesadis? Fang took away all the elite troops of Dry Water City. Although the remaining tens of thousands of orcs are still capable of fighting, they still lack strict and formal military training.

After realizing the dire situation, Dawa, the stone hammer clan, could only issue the highest-level call-up order, and mobilized all the orcs and affiliated tribes in the city to fill the top of Drywater City.

All of a sudden, the majestic and towering walls of Dry Water City were crowded with people, and groups of tauren with blue-black horns on their heads pushed heavy war machines and transported them one by one to the tower in the middle of the city wall.

Perhaps it is because the orcs are too tough and strong that they only like to take off their naked bodies and hold up a big knife to play field battles with the enemy. It is because of this strength and bravery that the orcs have become the only masters of the Johnson plane.

But precisely because of the influence of this fighting style, they never bothered to study those war instruments and strategies and tactics.

If they are in a dominant position on the battlefield, of course it doesn't matter.

But now, when the orc clan has become a weak side and needs to stick to the city, this deficiency becomes extremely glaring and terrifying.

Therefore, when less than 20,000 orc remnants retreated to the outskirts of Dry Water City, the desolation and tragedy shocked all the witnesses, and they couldn't help but secretly swallow their saliva.

On the Yellow Earth Avenue less than 2 miles away from Dry Water City, groups of fast-moving ghouls stood out from the tide of undead corpses and quickly caught up with the remnants of the orc army.

The exhausted orcs had no choice but to stick to their positions, resisting the impact of the undead army, and desperately calling for help to the dry water city defenders.

Seeing this situation, a serious internal strife immediately broke out in Dry Water City!

This group of remnants of the orcs was originally the troops of Dry Water City, and almost every orc warrior had relatives and friends who were waiting for their return in the city. Suddenly seeing their loved ones outside the city enduring the attack of the terrifying undead, the left-behinds in the city could no longer hold back their agitation, and flocked to the city gate to open the gate to rescue their relatives.

There was a serious conflict between the guarding troops of the city gate and the emotional orcs, which also caused the morale of the guards at the top of the city to fluctuate.

Although Dawa, the supreme commander of the defenders in the city, saw it clearly, he also knew it in his heart.

If he refused to send troops to rescue these junior soldiers, then without fighting, the hearts of the people in the city would have collapsed. But if you want to send troops to rescue people, those undead corpses that are slowly advancing near the horizon are probably waiting for this moment...

In a dilemma, Dawa could only sigh secretly, ordered to open the city gate, and sent a mixed force of 3,000 people to rescue the trapped orc remnants.

And this order has undoubtedly become a key to the rapid fall of Dry Water City!

A mixed force was sent out of the city, the main force being 2,000 tauren troops, in addition, there were 300 wolf cavalry, 600 centaur, and 100 harpy.

And what greeted them outside the city was the ghoul troop and wraith army carefully prepared by the death witches.

As soon as the two sides engaged in battle, thousands of Wraith Legion swooped down from the sky, while making eerie smiles all over the sky, they rushed into the mixed army with virtual bodies.

Wraiths are special creatures formed by the combination of death resentment and void matter. Most of them do not have a real body and are almost immune to most physical damage. And their attacks don't have physical effects, they only use their cold core of resentment to corrode the souls of living beings.

Therefore, their attacks have a strong devouring effect, which can effectively absorb the enemy's spiritual vitality and soul energy!

On the orc side, there are too few individuals who have mastered and possessed elemental power, and it is difficult for ordinary weapons to damage the wraiths in the slightest. Therefore, in the dense arrow rain of the centaur and the spear-throwing attack of the harpy, those translucent wraiths resisted the opponent's attack, rushed to his side, inserted their illusory and terrifying claws into the opponent's body, and went crazy inside. He fumbled for something.

The centaur and tauren attacked by the wraith, even if they frantically waved the stakes and spears in their hands, they couldn't hurt the wraith at all. Instead, under the siege of a group of resentful groups, each of them lost their soul energy rapidly, almost lost the ability to think and fight, and fell to the ground with their bodies stiffened.

With the influx of resentful spirits, this mixed orc army became chaotic in an instant.

So at this time, the ghoul troops that followed rushed over from all directions.

A Tauren warrior with blood-red pupils roared angrily, beating the ground with thick hoofs, and the 3-meter wooden pillars in their hands, which were as thick as an adult's waist, were waving vigorously. The ghouls rushing headlong smashed into a pile of blood sauce.

However, these ghouls are obviously not afraid of death.

Although they are far inferior to the tauren warriors in terms of strength and physique, they possess agility far surpassing each other.

The ghouls ran up and down, interspersed left and right among the whistling wooden pillars, and from time to time pounced on a certain tauren warrior to dig out their claws or eject tongue arrows from their ugly and terrifying mouths. Blood holes were stabbed in the opponent's flesh and blood.

The minions and saliva of the ghouls were densely covered with terrible toxins. After being attacked by them, even though the tauren remained brave, their stamina and strength inevitably weakened.
