Chapter 455: Battle with Monsters (8)
Taking advantage of this rare period of safety, the summoners quickly transported the wounded to the rear for treatment, and the Rock elves also took the opportunity to repair the gaps caused by the Wolf King's ghost fire balls.
Less than a cup of tea later, the monsters appeared in front of everyone's left.
Because the temporary city wall was built along the mountainside and directly connected to the steepest part of the mountain, which was almost a cliff, if the monsters wanted to go around and attack everyone from behind, they would either have to cross the distant city wall or bypass the entire mountain.
In the former, Lido arranged a simple pit under the wall in that area, and transplanted all the thorny plants she found to that area, which would always cause some trouble to the monsters. She also left a few summoners there to give early warnings, so if anything happened, they should be able to hold on until everyone could come to support them.
As for the latter, we cannot ask a group of monsters whose rationality has been completely stimulated by the breath of elves to choose this method which requires taking a long detour and will take at least half a day.
The aura of the elves was so close that the monsters, as expected, chose to attack directly from the front left of everyone, because this was the closest and only remaining attack direction.
The monsters attacking from here is also beneficial to the summoners.
Because the gap here is much narrower than the hill that was the only way to pass before, which means that the number of monsters attacking the temporary city wall at a time is much smaller than before, and the summoners can also focus more on defense.
In addition, the reason why this gap is not a must-pass place on the monster's attack route is because its terrain is complex and difficult to pass. The monster's formation will be separated and can only be reunited when entering the valley entrance.
Although there will definitely be a continuous flow of monsters, wave after wave, before all the monsters are consumed, it will not be a raging tide but a steady stream. I think you can imagine the difference between the two, right?
So this time everyone’s defensive pressure should be reduced a lot.
What appeared in front of everyone were the monsters whose way was blocked by the flames before. The first to bear the brunt were the remaining dozens of ordinary Nether Wolves led by a small leader.
This kind of rugged terrain is easier for relatively smaller monsters like the Nether Wolf to pass through. Of course, the Shadow Fox is no less capable and can even pass through faster because they are smaller and faster.
However, the Shadow Foxes' fighting style means they won't take the lead. Instead, they are hiding in the shadows behind the Phantom Wolf, waiting for the Phantom Wolf to launch an attack to attract everyone's attention before launching a sneak attack.
Others cannot see them, but Kellido, Fumei and Leah can sense them clearly with their mental power.
Back to the Nether Wolf, the wolf king had already died, and Lido didn't care too much about the remaining minions.
Without the command of the Wolf King, the attacks of the Nether Wolf Pack became direct.
Led by the little leader, the Nether Wolf Pack ran towards the city wall while spitting out ghost fireballs.
Lido swung her knife and sent out a large number of wind balls towards the ghost fire balls and the Nether Wolf Pack. She did not seek to accurately pull the ghost fire balls, but increased the power of the wind balls, blowing the ghost fire balls and the Nether Wolf Pack away, regardless of where they landed.
But even so, they achieved considerable results. Many ghost fireballs hit the Nether Wolves, and they were dead!
In addition, the falling Nether Wolves and Ghost Fire Balls knocked out many hidden Shadow Foxes.
The shadow fox that was hit by the ghost fire ball naturally could not withstand the burning of its mental power by the ghost fire ball and would die soon.
The Shadow Foxes that were hit by the Nether Wolves were not hurt except for being a little startled and exposing their position. They would dodge out and kill the Nether Wolves before they could hit them, and then find another place to hide, so Lido wouldn't have to do anything.
After this wave, there were only a few Nether Wolves left, and the last few were shot dead by Leah. At this point, the Nether Wolf pack was completely wiped out!
At this time, the remaining ghost tigers also arrived here, and the surviving shadow foxes naturally hid in the shadows of the ghost tigers again.
The Ghost Tiger is much meatier than the Nether Wolf and the Shadow Fox, and its size is much larger. The chances of the wind balls hurting them are slim to none. Now there is no Nether Wolf's Ghost Fire Ball to borrow strength from, so there is no need to waste energy attacking with the wind balls, so Lido chose to use a small Wind Style Rasengan.
But Lido came up with a new use for it.
Lido condensed a bunch of small Wind Style Rasengan and stopped when she almost reached the limit of her control. Then she gave up control of the small Wind Style Rasengan in the middle and only controlled the small Wind Style Rasengan at the edge to rotate in the same direction.
Soon, just like the small Wind Style Rasengan formed a chain and revolved around the large Wind Style Rasengan before, under Lido's control, these rotating small Wind Style Rasengan also formed a chain, tightly binding the small Wind Style Rasengan inside, and gradually those small Wind Style Rasengan also began to rotate.
Then Lido controlled the small wind-style Rasengan chain to fall towards the area under the city wall where the ghost tigers and shadow foxes were most concentrated, and then released control.
The next moment after Lido let go of control, the Wind Style Rasengan chain became much larger. After all, the original small Wind Style Rasengan on the chain actually interfered with each other, but the distance between them was compressed under Lido's control.
This is also the reason why Lido immediately released the control after controlling the chain to the desired position. It was really too difficult to control!
Now that the control was released, the small Wind Style Rasengan immediately returned to a distance where they did not interfere with each other but resonated with each other. The chain naturally enlarged, and then fell down.
As soon as the small wind-style Rasengan in the chain landed on the ground, a huge wind ball rotating at high speed was immediately formed on the spot. Inside the wind ball were tiny disordered wind blades that could cut molecules, and outside were huge wind blades rotating around the wind ball, which could cut into pieces anything that tried to pass through the chain blockade.
Especially at the intersection of the wind blades between the two wind balls, wind blades are constantly being bounced in all directions, making it difficult to defend against.
As for the small wind-style Rasengan inside the chain, some fell to the ground and turned into rotating wind balls, but most of them did not fall to the ground, but rushed around randomly along the ground.
Every wind ball in the Wind Style Rasengan chain that falls to the ground will take away the nearby ghost tigers and shadow foxes, and those Wind Style Rasengan that rush forward will also take away the part of the body that it touches when they hit the ghost tigers or shadow foxes, or even a little more.
In short, after the Wind Style Rasengan chain landed on the ground, it formed a field of wind blades, which was a perfect place for the Ghost Tigers and Shadow Foxes to be tortured!
It can be said that Lido paid the spiritual energy and wind magic elemental characteristics equivalent to approximately three large-sized Wind Style Rasengan, as well as a not-so-much mental consumption, to bring more than 80 percent of the Ghost Tigers and Shadow Foxes within the coverage range of the Wind Style Rasengan chain!
After that, Lido only needs to wait for the energy of the wind blade field to be exhausted. She doesn't have to worry about dealing with the ghost tiger's "accomplices", nor does she have to worry about sensing the position changes and sneak attacks of the shadow fox. She can achieve a lot of results. It's really cost-effective!
