Lance Charge!

In the era of cold weapons, the most lethal move was a lance charge by a Tier 2 knight that could instantly kill a fourth-tier Warrior. Even Warrior in the Legendary Domain, without the protection of Supernatural Equipment, would inevitably suffer a hole in their bodies, and whether they would die depended on luck; a hit to the heart would certainly be fatal. No one would be reckless enough to withstand Lance Charge; even a third-tier knight could carve a bloody hole in Dragon.

This was once one of the most difficult Combat Skill for Player to master.

You need three to five prerequisite Feat, not only in mastering the Knight Lance, but also in riding an excellent warhorse and the ability to control it. Because if you don't react quickly enough in a moment of misalignment, any attack will cause serious damage to you at the full speed of the horse's charge. Being thrown off your horse is the least of your worries; if you're unlucky, you'll be dead instantly.

One charge!

The number of knights decreased by six; five were thrown from their horses, one died instantly, and only three of the remaining knights were still able to fight. However, the destructive power was more than ten times greater. All the Ogre hit either died instantly or had their bodies pierced through, essentially losing their ability to fight. In just one round of attacks, at the cost of two dead and three wounded, forty to fifty Ogre were taken, including several advanced Ogre Warrior.

The number of Ogre had already suffered heavy casualties at the beginning, was greatly reduced, and the pressure on the front line was also greatly reduced.

The light infantry had run out of ammunition, and as the two sides entered Strangulate, they laid down their crossbows and drew their short swords for hit-and-run tactics. The White Horse City army had suffered heavy casualties, with hundreds killed on the spot and many more seriously wounded. The Ogre had suffered nearly a third of their casualties, mainly from the attacks of the first line, the Spell cast by the Wizard, and the recent knight charge. Although the light infantry Rapid Shot, the crossbow bolts were not very effective against the thick-skinned and partially armored Ogre.

If it's not a fatal hit, they can pull out the crossbow bolt and continue fighting.

On the other side.

The Two-Headed Ogre destroyed three Golem in succession. It cast a Fireball among the knights, and the violent explosion sent more than ten people flying. One knight instantly twisted his waist to hide beside his horse. The warhorse was blown to pieces on the spot, and he was crushed on top of the warhorse's corpse. One of his arms was twisted, and it looked like the bone was broken.

Clang!

A spear descended from the sky, and the Storm Lord landed with agility, grabbing the spear and sweeping it at the Two-Headed Ogre before him.

A gash appeared on the heavy battle axe of the Two-Headed Ogre. Its left head frowned and swung its left arm at the enemy before it, while its right head chanted a spell, and a burst of fire struck the Storm Lord. In less than a second, the spell was completed, and the right head also controlled its body to swing the battle axe, slashing directly at the enemy's waist.

Ding ding ding!

The Storm Lord wielded her spear, creating a raging storm, but after each parry, she took a step back, her expression growing increasingly furious.

Her opponent's strength was clearly far superior to hers!

Under a barrage of attacks, she was forced back more than ten steps, her hand gripping the spear trembling slightly. However, the Two-Headed Ogre before her was also in dire straits, its body still crackling with electricity, its weapon bearing the brunt of the lightning. A Spell Aura appeared, Ogre Shaman swung his skull club, casting a Spell on the Two-Headed Ogre while rapidly chanting incantations. Arcs of electricity began to crackle in the surrounding air, and faint streaks of lightning appeared.

--"Call Lightning!"

The Ogre Warrior were also struck by the electric arcs, but they only paused briefly before continuing their attack.

However, the other human Warrior were struck by the lightning, and their bodies were visibly Paralysis. In that instant, five or six Warrior fell to the ground. Wearing full-body metal armor, they had very poor Lightning Resistance. The scattered lightning did not cause fatal damage, but the effect caused considerable losses to the White Horse Guard.

--"Elemental resistance."

Wizard and priests began casting Spell, unleashing a barrage of Fire Bolt and Melf's Acid Arrow. The wide-range attacks disregarded friend and foe alike. Wizard rarely memorized large quantities of turret-type Spell. A third of their Spell Spell was used for survival, a third for control, and only the last Spell were truly Evocation Spell.

A Wizard remembers all Evocation Spell will die faster than anyone else on the battlefield!

Precious Spell Slot are being used up.

The Tier 2 Wizard had already used up most of their Spell. A level 5 Wizard could only memorize one 3rd-level Spell. Although they were two or three class levels higher, the number of Spell above the third circle was still very small. In one-on-one combat, their Spell were obviously very deadly, but on the battlefield, one or two Fireball wouldn't solve the problem. They might kill a small number of Ogre, but more enemies would be approaching. These Wizard had memorized a large number of Abjuration Spell and Control Spell.

"Slr!..."

The Storm Lord retreated fifteen steps, her anger growing ever stronger. Suddenly, she roared, her muscles swelling as if inflated, accompanied by cracking sounds as her bones popped. She grew to about 2.2 meters tall. Because she was female, her muscles didn't appear as exaggerated, but they still exuded a deadly power.

Barbarian?!

No one expected that the female Warrior in front of them was actually Storm Lord, an advanced Barbarian.

With a low growl, she directly blocked the Two-Headed Ogre's attack head-on, simultaneously twisting her spear and slashing it across the ogre's chest, leaving a bloody gash. The tough skin was enhanced with the Stoneskin, and the Spell Protection from Energy had shattered; the Stoneskin's protective strength of around 150 points was broken by her in a single move.

Bolts of lightning danced across her hands and body, and a dark cloud appeared in the sky at some unknown time.

Rumble!

A deep rumble of thunder echoed across the land, startling many people into a moment of pause.

The Storm Lord's pupils gleamed with bloodlust, her Blood Frenzy Slaughter driving her to frenzy. The already chaotic power of the lightning storm amplified her Rage state, clearly indicating she had lost her mind. The others around her began to retreat, even the White Horse City army withdrew dozens of meters. When the Legendary Domain Storm Lord went mad, anyone could be caught in the crossfire.

"I'm going to cut off your head!"

The Storm Lord strode forward with heavy steps, crackling lightning leaping from her body. Her agile form was like the Avatar of a storm. She gazed at her enemy and said in a deep voice, "Your heads will become my spoils. I will pickle them and store them in my room."

The Two-Headed Ogre growled, quickly casting a Spell on itself. A Blood Frenzy glint appeared in its eyes, its muscles bulged, and twisted veins stood out as it roared, "The descendant of the Dragon Slayer fears nothing!"

"Kill you! Your flesh and blood will grant me even greater power!"

Blood Frenzy.

The Two-Headed Ogre's aura surged, and as its Rage power was activated, it temporarily lost its ability to cast spells.

In Rage state, no class can cast spells.

Because the wild power has interfered with their minds, their melee combat ability will increase dramatically during this period, but they will no longer be able to concentrate on casting any Spell.

The Storm Lord before them was Legendary Professional, but the Two-Headed Ogre was also Legendary Tier challenge monster.

Besides possessing powerful spellcasting abilities, it is also a terrifying Berserker!

On the other side of the battlefield.

The Golem trudged heavily to reinforce the flanks, while light infantry scattered to entangle the enemies in front. The fierce Strangulate on the main battlefield continued, and the Adventurer ' casualties steadily increased. Beside Soren, an unfortunate Rogue was smashed into a pulp. He and Yas were back-to-back, providing cover for each other, dodging the Ogre's attacks with their agility. The two sides had already worked together to kill five or six Ogre, Soren had gained nearly three thousand Slaughter Experience.

On such a large-scale battlefield, it is absolutely taboo to show off too much!

If attacked by two Ogre simultaneously, he has a 50% chance of perishing here. Those Swordmaster who initially attracted attention have all died in battle. They, who were prioritized to become advanced Ogre Warrior, vanished like brilliant fireworks. This tells people about the Swordmaster Swordmaster ' powerful combat abilities, but also about their fragile survival skills.

The outcome of the battle is not important.

At least for Soren, it wasn't important. The one concerned with the outcome of the battle was the commander of the White Horse City army. He was now merely a Mercenary, responsible for completing his mission and eliminating as many enemies as possible while minimizing danger. Nearby, Ogre charged into the light infantry formation and wreaked havoc, with occasionally more righteous Adventurer rushing to their aid. However, neither Soren nor Yas made a move. The Half-Elf Ranger, wielding a boning knife, circled around them, occasionally using his Longbow to shoot enemies in the legs.

Armored Ogre cannot be killed in one hit. Attacking their legs will reduce their combat effectiveness, and then coordinating with Soren to kill them is the safest approach.

It's probably because they cooperated so well!

The ogre Ogre Warlord, clad in heavy armor, charged back from among the light infantry behind them, his eyes bloodshot, and lunged at them.

The Ogre Warlord, now in Rage state, has made them his kill targets!
