Looking at the purplish-brown city walls and other buildings before him, Jiang Jie nodded slightly.
Gilneas City covers a considerable area; in fact, it's larger than the surface area of Lordaeron, though it can't compare to the rebuilt Stormwind City.
The city's architectural style is not as majestic as Stormwind City, nor as noble as Lordaeron, nor as magnificent as Silvermoon City. It gives people a feeling of minor nobility, with a touch of oppression amidst its wealth.
Jiang Jie didn't like this style.
Gilneas is a wealthy country, and its people can certainly live well and happily in peacetime. However, in times of war, this spirit is not strong enough.
Gilneas City is surrounded by water on all sides, with a moat encircling it, making it seem easy to defend and difficult to attack. However, the moat is not wide, and the city walls are not high or sturdy. Its terrain is not comparable to Ironforge or Stormwind City, and it is even inferior to Lordaeron.
As mentioned before, among the seven human kingdoms, apart from Stromgarde, which has been completely defeated, Gilneas is probably the weakest, weak in every aspect.
This city is shrouded in a teleportation barrier, and unfortunately, no powerful mage has broken through it yet. It's doomed!
However, at least for now, Gilneas has been holding on.
Even if a country resists desperately, it will take time to conquer it.
"That's... Undead army!" Jiang Jie's eyes narrowed slightly.
Just Gilneas City, a large horde of Undead is fiercely besieging the city.
Jiang Jie saw Meat Wagon and catapults. Several Undead were trying to freeze the moat, at least to create a path for the Undead to pass through. Meanwhile, a Death Knight was directing a dozen or so relatively agile Undead to operate the Meat Wagon and catapults to attack the city walls!
On the city walls, the Gilneas City guards were fighting back fiercely, but it was clearly not very effective. The Undead attacks were too dense, and soon many archers fell. This section of the city wall was about to fall!
" Anveena, use fire magic." Jiang Jie took out the orange bow, Thori'dal, and fired.
Whoosh whoosh!
The arrows flew like streaks of light, striking one Undead after another in the blink of an eye!
This is energy damage, not pure physical damage. It also affects Undead Undead, destroying the magical traces and death energy on them, turning them back into useless corpses that must be reawakened to fight.
With no shortage of arrows, the speed of shooting depended on how quickly Jiang Jie drew his bow. Thus, one arrow after another was fired at an astonishing rate.
Jiang Jie, alone with just a bow, could almost suppress hundreds of Undead!
"Hmm, fire magic? I still prefer Arcane Magic... Alright, I think I've learned two, let's give it a try... Fire Blast!"
Anveena gently traced a line with her hands in front of her chest, summoning Arcane energy from the Elemental Plane to form a powerful shockwave. This was one of the most basic low-level fire magic spells.
Fire Blast!
However, in Anveena's hands, the spell's effect was completely different.
Is that really a normal Fire Blast? Isn't it usually used to attack single enemies? Why is it covering such a large area? It's a whole cone-shaped area in front of us, covering at least thirty to fifty Undead!
Furthermore, the intensity of this flame and the heat it emits are definitely not at the level of ordinary Fire Blast, right? This must be Dragon's Breath!
Anveena's Fire Blast ignited all the Undead in that area. At least half of Undead were engulfed in flames and burned to a crisp before they could even reach Anveena. The Undead was unable to resurrect them.
As for other types of Undead that are more resistant to burning, such as zombies and Ghoul...
"Hmm, the second spell... Fireball!"
It was still the simplest fire spell, but this time, unlike Arcane Missiles, it didn't summon dozens at once. But what on earth was that fireball almost as big as a water tank?
Moreover, the concentration of the flames is far greater than that of a regular Fireball, isn't it?
Is that Pyroblast?
The fireball exploded amidst a large group of Undead.
Then came a deafening roar, blasting dozens of Undead to smithereens, while the Undead were ignited by even more intense flames. Anveena casually cast two spells, dispatching over a hundred low-level Undead!
Seeing all this, Jiang Jie couldn't help but shake his head and sigh:
Mages are indeed mobile turrets, and fire mages are turrets among turrets, while Anveena...
It's on par with flagship main guns!
Anveena's spellcasting ability is not strong; her strength lies in her own energy and her control over it.
So when some extremely fast Ghoul split up and rushed towards her, she had no choice but to fly into the sky to avoid the attacks of the Undead on the ground.
As for the Undead's spells and the Undead's arrows...
I'm sorry, the former was killed by Jiang Jie immediately, and the latter's arrows were ineffective against Anveena because Anveena is an energy being, and the pitiful amount of magic power attached to those ordinary arrows had no effect on Anveena at all...
Seeing that he couldn't defeat Anveena, the Death Knight brandished his greatsword and led a group of Undead towards Jiang Jie.
"What? You really think I'm easier to bully Anveena? You really think I'm just a pure hunter? Sorry, you're wrong!"
Jiang Jie fired several arrows, killing a few Undead who had no time to dodge and no intention of doing so. Then he put away his orange bow and took out the divine sword Strom'kar.
"While the hunter's kiting tactics are interesting, I seem to prefer close-quarters combat?"
The biggest advantage of having multiple professions is that it makes Jiang Jie's abilities more comprehensive. He can fight at long range and close range, attack, defend, and run away, and he can handle both physical and energy attacks.
The divine sword danced, each strike taking away one or more Undead.
The burning Shadowflame are enough to annihilate any enemy encountered; of all the Undead here, only the Death Knight has the ability to withstand one or two sword strikes.
However, with his first sword strike, Jiang Jie severed the greatsword in the Death Knight's hand, and with his second sword strike, he chopped off his head!
The Shadowflame continued to burn, reducing the Death Knight's body, along with his skeletal warhorse, to ashes.
"Compared to Lord Korth'azz or even Baron Rivendare... he's far inferior!" Jiang Jie shook his head slightly.
He's just an ordinary Death Knight; a High-Ranking Paladin could easily handle him. Nothing special.
Suddenly, a large hand made of evil energy grabbed Jiang Jie's body and pulled him in a distant direction.
Jiang Jie looked up and saw a Death Knight; another Undead army was arriving!
This time there are more Undead, and the leading Death Knight seems to be more powerful.
Immediately afterwards, a spell was cast on Jiang Jie.
Those were venomous arrows, one after another, trying to corrode the " Troll Stalker " on Jiang Jie's body. Jiang Jie, who was tightly gripped by the " Death Grip," had no way to resist, and every venomous arrow landed on him.
Then, a giant net descended from the sky and covered Jiang Jie. The net seemed to be made of metal wire and spider silk, and it was very tough. There was also spider slime on it!
Jiang Jie even saw spiders—spiders of all sizes—crawling on the giant web, looking incredibly grotesque and disgusting!
