The Wood Elves hiding in the darkness didn't even think about ambushing them. What greeted them was a row of powerful elemental bombardment.
Essien's silhouette was reflected in the light. He ran towards the camp in a panic, as if aware of the destructive attack that was about to come from behind him. As the meteor-like light fell, he leaped towards the back of a giant tree beside him.
The sentries only saw this scene, and then they heard a loud explosion.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
Everyone knew that the enemy was coming without any warning.
The Wood Elves' elemental attacks weren't formed spells like the "Fireball" spell. Instead, they were simple "elemental attacks" mixed with various elements. To put it bluntly, they were the most primitive form of spell attack. The "Fireball" spell used by normal mages needed to condense, shape, and push the fire element forward. It also required an explosion after the collision. However, the Wood Elves' attacks weren't that complicated. The explosion after they hit the ground was completely caused by the instability of the element itself. The power was simply incomparable to the "Fireball" spell of the same level.
However, even if the Wood Elves' spells were weaker than those of the same level, they had the advantage in numbers. Under the bombardment of a dozen or so light beams, three giant trees were broken on the spot. Countless snowflakes fell from the impact, as if it was snowing heavily.
Essien's figure disappeared. However, because he was standing far away from the camp, the spells didn't cause any damage to the mercenaries in the camp.
The explosion made the mercenaries who were lying in their tents crawl out in fear. When Pan Da stood up with the necklace in his hand, Kardashian had already raised her wand and pointed it at the sky. The light of the "Illumination" spell instantly illuminated the entire battlefield.
However, they only had time to confirm the enemy's position. The Wood Elves had already rushed to within 40 meters of them in the falling snow. What greeted them was a wave of arrows!
"Find cover!"
Following Kardashian's shout, she slammed her wand on the ground under her feet. The surrounding ice elements immediately formed a translucent ice wall that was two meters tall and six meters wide, blocking not far from Rubens and the others.
The sound of arrows colliding with each other rang out in an instant. Rody and the others were facing the Wood Elves. That was why the first wave of arrows and sorcery attacks were directed at the few people around the bonfire. Kardashian's decisive spell bought Pan Da and the others a few seconds to react. As the commander, Pan Da immediately shouted, "Find cover and counterattack with arrows and magic! Dewitt, bring your men and wait for my order before attacking! "
As soon as he finished speaking, the Wood Elf released another round of elemental attacks.
From a tactical standpoint, these wood elves were foolish. That was because they had no place to use their strength. The new recruits who had just entered the battlefield would often use all their strength when swinging their swords and sabers without thinking about blocking or counterattacking. This group of Wood Elves was obviously doing the same.
In order to deal with a Sentinel or a simple Magic Barrier, more than ten people had to cast spells at the same time. Seeing this, Pan Da's heart inexplicably calmed down. This kind of battle directly revealed that the enemy was a rookie. As long as they could hold on for a while, there would be a gap in their attacks, and his mercenaries would then find an opportunity to counterattack.
He had already fought against this group of Wood Elves once before. Although it was a short time, as a former arcanist, he had roughly figured out their attack style and nature.
"Dewitt! Wait for the opportunity! "
By the time he hid behind a tree, the ice wall that Kardashian had cast had already been shattered by his spell. However, the whole team had quickly found cover. In a few seconds, Pan Da's first divine spell was also released. Silver light bloomed, and a faint halo appeared in front of every mercenary.
They didn't know what it was, but the second round of attack from the Wood Elves had left them no time to think. Without a break, three consecutive waves of spells began to bombard the back of the giant tree that they were hiding in. When the impact and tremors caused everyone's vision to be filled with falling snow, they realized that this group of enemies was stronger than they had imagined.
There were clearly more than twenty of them, but after surrounding the campsite, they began to bombard the camp with spells. There were only three mages in this mercenary group, and facing more than twenty spellcasters was really difficult. Even though Pan Da and another priest were trying their best to resist, they couldn't withstand this attack that seemed to have unlimited magic power …
"Damn it … What's going on?!"
Louis was a mage who had faced Wood Elves before, and he found that the strength and speed of these guys' attacks had obviously increased by a large margin. In the continuous bursts of light, he was bombarded continuously, and the magic staff in his hand finally couldn't withstand the magic power consumption and shattered on the spot.
"Ah!"
In the midst of the chaos, this group of mercenaries didn't just hide behind the tree and do nothing. Seven or eight arrows were shot consecutively, and finally, one of them succeeded, bringing with it a blood-curdling scream.
Roddy held his own short bow, and at this time, according to the attack speed of a "normal archer", he shot the third arrow. He didn't hold back when he aimed, but in order to not expose his strength, he attacked the chest of the Wood Elf instead of the head.
The "excellent short bow" in his hand was bought from the workshop in Hollier City, and in terms of quality, it was much better than the inferior short bow that he had used when he first came to this world. But this bow only had a base level of 15 … and the upper limit of damage was about 230 points.
Usually, Roddy used the epic-grade short bow that Lord Victor gave him. In the case that the special effect was not triggered, the upper limit of this bow was about 30 times higher than the upper limit of this bow.
Using a hunting arrow with extremely low lethality, even though the target was only forty meters away, the arrow's trajectory was still extremely obvious after it was shot out. He was sure that he had hit three targets, but there was no doubt that these guys who were shot did not seem to be injured at all. They were still standing there, casting spells.
The Wood Elf that let out a blood-curdling scream was shot down by Natha. After all, she didn't change her bow, and in the face of such a sudden attack, Natha didn't even think of "holding back". She was not far from Roddy, and after shooting three arrows, she dodged. Immediately after, the tree behind her was hit by seven or eight rays of light, splashing sawdust onto Roddy's head. He directly threw away the bow and fell to the ground, hugging his head. When he looked up again, he found that Natha had already moved more than 10 meters to the side like a ghost.
This was obviously on the verge of exposing her strength, but when Roddy glanced at Pan Da, he found that the latter didn't pay attention to this side at all, and also did not dare to show his head due to the fierce bombardment of spells.
"Priest Pan Da! What do we do!? "
The shield that Kardashian had just released was shattered again, and she shouted loudly. The whole team could be said to be in a completely passive situation. If it wasn't for the mage desperately releasing the shield, perhaps the mercenaries hiding behind the tree would have been blown away.
