Half Elf Ranger

Chapter 248 Fireball
"Eugene, have you suppressed your mother's fireball? The enemy is about to rush over, hurry up!" The ogre leader Neil standing on the slope looked at the large number of ogres who were about to attack. After fighting with the enemy, he roared violently at the Osprey behind him.

"..." Eugene the Osprey Warlock, who was floating in the air and flapping his two small leather wings, almost fell to the ground in anger at the ogre leader's vulgar words.I saw his chest rise and fall, resisting the urge to beat someone, and tried his best to stabilize his floating body.

Then the two small sparkling eyes gave the ogre leader a hard look, and continued to concentrate on manipulating the dark red fireball that was gradually increasing in size in front of him.

Warlock Eugene looked at the huge fireball floating in front of his eyes, and locked his eyes on the place where hobgoblins, bear goblins and various ferocious beasts were most densely distributed in the distance.

"The tongue of the bat, the smell of sulfur, let the purest air burst into the hottest flame!"

Immediately afterwards, the air trembled with the deafening scream of Osprey warlock Eugene, and an extremely huge dark red fireball with the whistling sound of tearing the air, crossed a beautiful arc, and appeared in the group of hobgoblins above.

"Boom!"

The hot flames exploded, the high-temperature flames raged wildly, and the violent impact mixed with the refurbished soil splashed everywhere. The densest crowd of hobgoblin troops was instantly cleared out of a vacuum.

"thump!"

The moment the weak Osprey Eugene threw the fireball, he lost his strength and fell into the green grass exuding the breath.He glanced at the effect of the fireball, and nodded inwardly with satisfaction.

He is a warlock by profession, but he has the highest affinity for flames of the evocation department, and he is very obsessed with the beauty of explosion as art. He once asked the goblin wizard: How can a fireball be cast more outstandingly?

The answer given to him by the goblin wizard is simple: to enhance the power of a certain spell, some passwords in the spell must be changed, but as long as the spell is changed, it will become more difficult to control, and there will be unknown dangers, especially The most destructive evocation spell.This technique is a test of the caster's proficiency in controlling spell energy.

When he understood Malvisa's meaning, he immediately put it into action, and finally successfully mastered the method of using this super-large fireball.

Although with his current strength, he can only cast one at most, and the improvement of personal strength is not very strong, but the change of this large-scale battle is still very reversible.

When the shaking ground stopped and the hot smoke dissipated, more than 200 ogre warriors with strong physiques and ferocious faces immediately brandished maces and maces, roaring and fighting with the warriors of the hobgoblin group. hands, and fell into the bloodiest close combat.

Although the hobgoblin fighters in the front row were well-equipped and their attack formations were orderly, their numbers were no match for the ogres.

Moreover, these ogre warriors from Bugle Town are also wearing simple iron armor, and the blunt weapons in their hands are the most lethal to heavy armor.

The moment the two sides came into contact, the captives and beasts led by the hobgoblin warriors were immediately dispersed by more than 200 grumpy and irritable ogres, falling into a one-sided situation, and it was only a matter of time before they rushed into the center of the battlefield.

At the same time, with the ups and downs of howling wolves sounded one after another, more than 100 goblins with light crossbows on the flanks nimbly jumped off the backs of the wargs, pouring down mercilessly like a rainstorm of crossbows.

Accompanied by the brisk and rhythmic light crossbow pulling the trigger, there was a 'click' sound.A large number of charging beasts and humanoid captives fell on the way forward like harvesting wheat in the dense arrow rain.

The moment the goblins in Bugle Town poured out all the losses of the light crossbow, they immediately left the wargs around them, turned and retreated, and more than 100 roaring wargs took the opportunity to rush up to carry on the relay.

"charge!"

Immediately afterwards, there were about 150 orc wolf cavalry. These orc warriors controlled the wolf. Each of them held a curved blade with a thick back and a small round shield wrapped around the other arm.

For a human body, this kind of curved blade knife basically needs to be held with two hands. In the hands of a burly orc, it can be easily danced and slashed with one hand. It is especially suitable for fighting with a flexible wolf.

More than 100 orc wolf cavalry spread out and surrounded the hobgoblin's battlefield in a line formation.

Accompanied by every swoop of the warg, the orc warrior relied on his condescending aura, and the powerful curved blade sword in his hand could easily harvest the lives of the enemies.

Soon, the orc wolf cavalry took advantage of the flexible mobility of the wargs to rush into the chaotic group of hobgoblins.

Followed by a dozen orc shamans in cloth robes led by the orc leader Sarn.

The only thing they have in common is that each of them holds a small section of totem magic weapon made like a beast skull, on which is carved a picture of a heroic orc warrior.

This is a soul shaman, which also belongs to the basic profession, but if you want to be successful, you must be under the guidance of a shaman teacher, and teach the apprentices the knowledge of the ancestral totem and the soul kingdom.

Their power comes from the totem they worship, which can also be called: the power of the spirit of the ancestors.

They also don't need to study spells like wizards, and they don't need to rely on blood like warlocks, but use the ancestor totems they worship to grant them power. They usually call themselves the spokesperson of the spirit kingdom, not the followers of a certain god.

——"Supernatural ability: Nether Guardian!"

——"Supernatural ability: spirit blessing!"

——"Supernatural Ability: Essence Guardian!"

……

As the totem artifacts in the hands of more than a dozen orc shamans flickered frequently, a creepy wind blew around them.

Immediately, translucent orc warriors in heavy armor with swords and shields appeared from the enveloping wind, floating about half a meter from the ground, motionless.

Immediately afterwards, the orc shamans issued orders to the ghost guards summoned from the spirit kingdom.

These ghost guards who are immune to ordinary physical attacks instantly waved the weapons exuding ghost breath in their hands, and drifted silently and quickly towards the chaotic battlefield.

"Puff! Puff! Puff!"

Several hobgoblin warriors who couldn't dodge in time were stabbed in the body by the Nether Guard's long sword. Although no wound was left, a cold breath was injected into their bodies, and their movements immediately became stiff and slow, and then they were killed. The galloping orc wolf cavalry wielded a curved sword to harvest their lives.

"Steady! Stabilize! The people of the Mighty One are fearless!" Standing on the siege tower, the head of the hobgoblin army roared angrily, looking at the situation that was about to be defeated.

With each roar of his rage, the morale of the hobgoblin warriors in the hard battle will increase by a layer.

As the people of the Almighty, they always firmly believe that the soul after death will still follow the goblin patron saint to continue fighting in the Shura plane, so hobgoblin warriors are more important to military honor than anything else.

For them, death is more like another new life full of honor.

"Don't panic! Don't..." The head of the hobgoblin army standing on the siege tower was still screaming loudly.A figure with flames burning all over his body, with wings spread out, wrapped in scorching waves of flames, smashed towards his head fiercely.

"boom!"

The moment Hokage collided with the head of the hobgoblin army, the head of the hobgoblin army was directly forced back again and again by the powerful charging momentum and the scorching flames, and hit the fence of the siege tower.

The flames dissipated, and Thorn's figure holding a long sword appeared in front of the head of the hobgoblin army.

"It is you! Half-elf ranger! Stalker of the silent way!"

The head of the hobgoblin army saw the appearance of the coming person, gritted his teeth and said, the anger burning in his angry eyes seemed to be a deep hatred that permeated the blood between the two.

Thorne was not surprised that the leader of the hobgoblin army recognized him.

After all, he had been living in the Forest of Tranquility a few days ago, and almost all the high-level hobgoblins with names and surnames were deeply impressed by him.

However, Thorne knew that now was not the time for trash talking, because he had already noticed the sound of hurried footsteps of combat boots on the wooden steps under the siege tower.

Obviously, this is the escort of the head of the hobgoblin army who came to support.

With a thought, Thorn immediately ordered his animal partner, the Volcano, to block the stairs through the ability of emotional connection.

Rangers and druids, as well as priests who have obtained the animal domain, can all obtain a special animal companion, and when you identify a certain animal as your animal companion through the connection ceremony and establish a master-servant relationship.

Then the animal identified by you will gain some special abilities as its level increases.

For example, his Crouching Dragon Beast, in addition to "emotional connection" and "spell sharing".

With his current strength as a level 7 ranger, Fulong Beast can also gain an additional 4 points of health, 4 points of natural defense, and 2 points of improvement in strength and agility attributes respectively.

Moreover, it also got a special specialty "Reflex Dodge", which greatly strengthened the ability of Drake to avoid spells.

In fact, a normal ranger and animal companion will not have so many enhancements like a druid.But because he obtained the animal domain, the two abilities of the ranger and the domain overlap each other, and become equal to the druid.

——"Spell-like ability: Demon Summoning!"

The moment Thorne stabilized his figure, his hands didn't stop at all. With a wave of the Demon Slayer sword, a magic circle of light emerged between him and the head of the hobgoblin army.

Accompanied by the strong breath of the abyss, five bouncing cowards appeared in the siege tower like a group of curious babies.

Invaded by the will of the abyss!

Making a Will saving throw...

Will save succeeded!

You successfully saved yourself from the chaotic will of the Abyss!
The demons you summon will obey your commands!
……

Looking at the five half-person-tall cowards, Thorne moved his mind, and the five cowards moved their clumsy bodies towards the stairs.

——"Spell-like ability: mass panic!"

——"Spell-like ability: darkness!"

——"Spell-like ability: Smelly cloud spell!"

……

The cowards ran and screamed strangely, a large black cloud floated within the range of the siege tower, and the space where everyone was in was suddenly plunged into darkness.

Followed by the dense stinky cloud sprayed from the coward's big dark red mouth full of saliva, these disgusting smells permeated the entire siege tower at an extremely fast speed, hiding in the siege tower All the hobgoblins in the area were affected, bending over to vomit.

And those wizards who were preparing to support under the siege tower chose to give up the attack because they couldn't see the situation inside clearly.

In the end, there were frightening piercing screams echoing frequently.

Thorne launched the counter technique of the Steel Soul faction and endured the stinky cloud that smelled like rotten eggs, and rushed towards the leader of the hobgoblin army with his sword in the dark.

"Clang clang clang!"

The long sword and the blood ax collided fiercely one after another, sparking dazzling sparks.

Since Thorn was blessed with many magical buffs by the druid, his current attributes completely surpassed the head of the hobgoblin army whose strength was above the third level.

In the continuous collision between the two, he completely had the upper hand, but it was a bit difficult to quickly take down the opponent.

After all, as the head of the hobgoblin army, he already belongs to the position second only to the leader of the hobgoblins. Even if the strength is not the strongest in the hobgoblin tribe, the rich experience accumulated in countless battles, large and small, is not comparable to him. Yes, and the strength of the other party has stabilized him by one level.

If he hadn't relied on the buff of divine magic, it would have been difficult to resist the fiercest counterattack of the blood ax in the hands of the hobgoblin.

"boom!"

During the continuous collision between the two, Thorne found the right opportunity and struck the shoulder of the head of the hobgoblin army with a sword, but apart from leaving behind a string of dazzling sparks, it did not cause any substantial damage, but even made him Due to too much force, my arm was numb due to the shock.

"clang!"

Seeing that Thorn was in a bad situation, he hurriedly used another dagger to block. The blood ax struck by the head of the hobgoblin army hit Thorn's dagger, shaking him back again and again.

"go to hell!"

Immediately afterwards, the head of the hobgoblin army, who was chasing after the victory, clenched the handle of the ax with both hands and slashed at the unstable Thorn with all his strength.

"boom!"

Thorne raised his sword and struggled to parry the full blow from the head of the hobgoblin army. The strong force caused him to almost half kneel on the ground.

"Pfft!"

Suddenly, a bugbear rogue who climbed up behind Thorne with the help of the wall of the siege tower struck him in the shoulder with a sharp blade.

Feeling the burning pain in his shoulder, a stream of cold sweat ran across Thorne's forehead. If it hadn't been for the blessing of the "Tree Skin Technique", one arm might have been crippled by the sneak attacking enemy.

The injured Thorn was heartbroken, and no longer worried about whether the fighting situation here would be noticed by the wizard below.

He rolled on the spot, avoiding the attack from both sides of the hobgoblin army leader and the bear goblin wanderer.

——"Desert Wind Sect (Stance Skill): Flame Art!"

Then with a thought, a turbulent flame barrier burned violently around his body, exuding scorching flames, and the bursting fire light directly dispelled the shadow formed by the "black cloud technique".

"Ah! Ah!"

Since the space on the top floor of the siege tower was already narrow, when the flames ignited all over Thorne, the two people around him were immediately hit, and the thick hairs all over their bodies were ignited by the flames.

Especially the bear goblin wanderer, who directly turned into a fire man, threw away the weapon in his hand and rolled wildly on the ground, trying to extinguish the flames.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Thorne immediately called out to the animal companions who were blocking the stairway with Coward.

"Roar!"

Accompanied by the low growl of the crouching dragon beast, it turned into a black shadow and appeared behind the head of the hobgoblin army. Its two strong front paws grabbed his shoulders on both sides respectively, restraining his next move.

——"Shadow Hand School (Strike Technique): Shadow Twist!"

Thorn, who was protected by the flame barrier, immediately stretched out his hand and waved it towards the air, and a rope completely condensed by shadow energy appeared in his palm.

Immediately afterwards, with a 'whoosh', he rushed towards the struggling head of the hobgoblin army. He was restrained by the dragon-dragon beast and had no time to dodge. Get slow.

"Roar!"

The crouching dragon beast took this opportunity to open its bloody mouth, with its upper and lower jaws exerting force at the same time, and bit the head of the hobgoblin army's neck that was not covered by armor. A strand of neurotoxin seeped out from the sharp fangs and injected into the hobgoblin's neck. The body of the army commander.

"Pfft!"

Thorn glanced at the goblin bear who was about to extinguish the flames, and stabbed violently with his long sword. The sharp blade was wrapped in hot flames, and accurately hit the throat of the hobgoblin army leader who was still struggling frantically.

The moment the long sword stabbed the head of the hobgoblin army to death, the bear goblin wanderer on the ground suddenly stood up and roared, ignoring Thorne's burning flame barrier, and opened his strong arms and rushed from behind.

Feeling the crisis, Thorn knew that he couldn't escape the goblin bear's grip. When he smelled the foul breath, his face changed suddenly. He resisted the pain in his shoulder and tried his best to deflect his body. The ferocious fangs that the goblin bear had originally bit at his neck pierced into his other shoulder.

——"Scary momentum!"

Thorne endured the pain of gnawing his flesh with his fangs, and with a thought, the suffocating murderous aura was like substantive energy suppressing the biting bear goblin.

The trembling goblin bear paused for a moment, and Thorne immediately seized the opportunity to push back hard with both elbows, hammering hard on the goblin bear's soft abdomen.

The goblin bear was forced to retreat after tearing off a piece of flesh from Thorne's shoulder.

"Pfft!"

The pale-faced Thorn raised his long sword and threw it violently, directly piercing the chest of the goblin bear, and died instantly.

At the same time, Thorne immediately retracted the flame barrier around him, and the top of the siege tower fell into darkness again.

"Block the enemies at the entrance of the stairs." Thorn looked at the dragon beast and ordered, then took away the long sword inserted into the goblin bear, and then looked at the blood ax and the armor covering the whole body of the hobgoblin commander.

The full-body armor that can withstand the full blow of his Demon Slayer Sword is definitely not easy, and he is naturally not going to let it go. Even if he can't use it himself, at least he can get a large sum of gold coins in exchange.

Fulong Beast pouted at Thorn, turned and ran over.

Thorn breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the hobgoblin warriors who hadn't stopped attacking the city, the reinforcements from Horn Town who had already reached the bottom of the siege tower, and the Drake that completely blocked the impact of the stairs.

Without any scruples, he pondered for a while, then half leaned on the fence of the siege tower, put the long sword back into the scabbard, and began to prepare spells.

——"Spell-like ability: Fireball!"

——"Desert Wind School (Strike Skill): Fire Bomb!"

Thorne looked at the two fireballs, one large and one small, in his palm, and he was not in a hurry to throw them, but guided them carefully, allowing the two fireballs to slowly merge.

"Buzz!"

When the two jumping fireballs merged, their volume suddenly became much larger.

Then Thorn continued to launch the fireball in the magic, and then guided the energy of Qi to continuously transform into dangerous flames.

This kind of fusion of two fireballs and the technique of enhancing the size and power of the fireballs are exactly what he has learned in the past three months.

Although the speed of cohesion is too slow, the improvement of his own strength is not great, but it is especially suitable for this kind of large-scale war, especially where the crowd is densest.

In this way, in Thorn's careful condensing, when he had consumed all the fireballs attached to the spell-like ability, and when the energy of Qi in his body was about to be exhausted, the fireball that was originally the size of a washbasin had been condensed into a star by him. A super-large dark red fireball with a diameter of nearly three meters.

Thorn glanced at a large number of hobgoblin warriors gathered in the direction of the city wall, his eyes reddened by the fireball froze, and with the last bit of strength in his body, he threw it violently.

"call!"

The huge fireball greeted the hobgoblins with a whistling sound.

When the fireball was about to approach, the heat emitted instantly burned the cheeks of all enemies within the range, and even some ferocious apes with thick hairs had already started to ignite spontaneously.

Suddenly, this fireball that seemed to be as dazzling as the sun fell from the sky.

The hobgoblins screamed loudly and covered their eyes with their shields, the ferocious beasts whimpered and buried their heads in the green weeds, and the little goblins chirped like ants on a hot pot and ran wildly.

"Boom!"

The dark red fireball mercilessly smashed into the stunned enemy group. Amidst the shocking loud noise, a dazzling orange flash burst out, as if endless energy sprayed flames and ravaged all creatures in the range. The violent impact was accompanied by the boom The loud noise made the whole earth tremble.

The towering ladder car and the few remaining siege towers were all overturned by the fireball's air waves, and a raging fire was burning. Below the city wall, there were broken limbs and arms blasted by the fireball and a bloody hobgoblin corpse everywhere. .
