For countless centuries, the Styx witches and glacier knights of Nifolheim have always shouldered a sacred mission-to resist the Styx dragons and prevent them from eating the "old tree of life"!
The ancestor of the poisonous dragon family, the ancient Styx poisonous dragon "Nid Hogg", has long been cursed by Hull, the "goddess of the underworld," and he is not allowed to surface in the Arctic sea, but his heirs are not restricted and can still go out of the water to make trouble.
The younger heirs of Niederhogg are not difficult to deal with. There are only six mythical Stygian dragons of Tier 6 that inherit the lineage of the Dragon King, Gein, Moin, Grabac, Ovenir, Grafvorud and Si Waffernier, the most fierce and difficult to deal with, poses the most serious threat to the "Old Tree of Life" and even Frostwood Town as a whole.
In Frostwood Town, almost every month, the witches and knights stationed here are harassed by the dragon for several days.
Fortunately, the poisonous dragons are not of one mind. They are divided into several big clans based on their kinship. The big clans are in intrigue and infighting. Even if the dragon king Nidhogg personally ordered it, he would not be able to make his heirs truly unite. Secretly they will still pull each other back.
It is thanks to the internal fighting of the poisonous dragon clan that Frost Forest Town can survive to this day.
The ancient Styx dragons on the side of the town rarely surface. In most cases, only those young poisonous dragons who don’t know the heights of the earth come to the town to make trouble, and the number usually does not reach double digits. Compared with the strong garrison troops in the town, they come. To make a deadly tease...
However, today I don’t know what happened, the four ancient dragons that usually hate each other, Gein, Moin, Grabac and Ovenir, all appeared in the bay in the north of the town!
In addition, there are no fewer than ten Styx poisonous dragons ranging from youth to adulthood, as well as a large group of "Purgatory Giant Squid" controlled by the poisonous dragon clan, trailing behind the four ancient dragons, rushing to the coast like a tide!
The problem is serious now!
Qiao Ann and Clark hurriedly dropped their knives and forks, ran out of the restaurant, took their big horns, and hurried to the meeting place following the crowd.
Walking through the woods and coming to the beach, Joan found that the Gayna family, Hilde and Sharon had already arrived, and gathered around them were 10 young witches stationed in Frostwood—all students of Ms. Helin. There are 150 fully armed "Glacier Knights".
In addition, the "Green Granny", the ancient tree of Ilminsur, revitalized two sturdy oak trees up to 30 feet tall into treants, and cast a spell to create 20 slender "activation spells", as well as countless others. "Activated vines" form a green line of defense on the beach on the north side of the forest.
Stygian witches, glacier knights, activated plants, plus a few explorers from outside, including Joan, Clark, and Big Horn, and a militia reserve spontaneously established by the townspeople. They are also equipped with two ballistas and two catapults. Ten gates together form the defensive force of Shuanglin Town.
Judging from the comparison of the forces between the offensive and defensive sides, even if there are four mythical ancient dragons leading the attack on the bay side, the defensive side will still have a greater chance of winning.
However, what Ms. Hering and the head of Hygilart care most about is not the victory or defeat of this war, but how much sacrifice they will have to pay to resist the dragon invasion. If the number of casualties is too large, their own vitality will be greatly injured, such as witches and knights. Elite strength can't be replenished in a short time, even if Frost Forest Town escapes today, it will be inevitable sooner or later.
As soon as Qiao'an and Clark arrived, they were called by Gaina to attend the emergency combat meeting.
In order to reduce losses as much as possible, the commander of Hejrat did not allow the young knights under his command to take the initiative to attack, and ordered all the combatants to withdraw two miles south, uniting with "activated plants" to form a defense line.
The Knights are divided into 5 teams. Each team consists of 30 knights and two witches. Each team defends a line of defense.
Behind the
living plants
, the knights and the witches, there are artillery positions established by the militias. 40 ballistas and catapults spread out in a direction parallel to the beach. On average, each defense zone is assigned eight Door heavy weapons.
The commander of Hejrat asked each team leader to strictly implement the tactical principles of "defense and counterattack", first attack the invaders with crossbow bolts, spears, ballistas and catapults, and kill the younger poisonous dragons and the water monsters that are slow after landing.
When the monsters crossed the beach covered by long-range firepower and approached the line of defense, the "activated plants" first stepped forward to defend against the enemy, and the witch casts spells to support.
Ms. Helin suggested that her students try their best to use "monster summoning techniques" at all levels and summon more rough-skinned "cannon fodder" to exchange lives with monsters.
At the same time, the knights blessed protection and gain spells, waiting for the opportunity.
When the monsters are dragged by the "living plant", each knight team launches a group charge again, in order to break the formation of the monster army in a counterattack, and then divide and encircle, and annihilate them one by one.
The biggest advantage of this tactic is to make full use of the battlefield space, and to minimize the enemy’s vitality before the two sides meet each other, and the "activated plants" and summoned creatures created by spells are the first to go up. They will automatically disappear when the time limit expires The correct usage is to send them to the front as cannon fodder, thereby reducing the casualties of witches and knights.
Since the establishment of Frost Forest Town, this set of tactics has been applied countless times, and has been continuously improved in actual combat. Except for a few outsiders, other well-trained combat personnel are already very familiar with this set of tactics and know that they are on the battlefield. roles played.
Judging from the experience of resisting enemy attacks in the past, this tactic is indeed effective. However, today, unlike the past, the four great mythological dragons all appeared together, bringing variables to this war.
Captain Hyjrat and Ms. Helin knew that no matter how sophisticated the formations were, they could only suppress the younger poisonous dragons and low-intellect water monster servants, but could not stop the quasi-legendary strength of the ancient dragons.
In this situation, one must select a group of powerful men of the same level to take the initiative to attack and drag the four great Styx ancient dragons. They must not be allowed to break into their own positions and kill them, causing the line of defense to collapse.
At the combat meeting, after a short and intense discussion, everyone finally reached a consensus.
The head of Hejrat and his two deputies, the 14th-level "Glacial Rider" Sir Gwen and the 15th-level "Glacier Knight" Cornish Sir, joined forces to fight the Stygian Dragon "Glacier Lord" Moin.
Clark, Big Horn, Hilder, and Sharon join forces to block the scheming "Prince Cunning" Grabac.
The green mother-in-law will also play in the "tree spirit form" and cooperate with the four "oak guards" against the "fang tyrant" Ge Yin.
In the end, the mother and daughter Helin and Gaina, plus Joan, joined forces to deal with the most brutal and combative "Bloodthirsty Duke" of the four great mythological dragons, Ovenir.
