Being Blind For Five Years, All My Disciples Became Forbidden Curse Mages

Chapter 96 - 96 Can’t Be underestimated

96 Can’t Be underestimated

Fang Ping was still surveying his surroundings, making a rough estimate. “There are at least ten of them. Basically, they’re all Troll Berserkers and Troll Warriors. They came from the hill on the left rear… Wait a minute, there’s also one on the right rear.

I’m not familiar with the terrain here. I don’t know how far they are from us.”

“Let’s go. Don’t fall behind.”

The group carried their backpacks and walked in the direction of the Lord’s Guards. Fang Ping took careful steps. It was not easy to walk on the frozen mountain path.

At the same time, Fang Ping was also investigating the pursuers behind him. Most of them were Troll Berserkers. Troll Berserkers were at least Class 3 Professionals. Their strength could not be underestimated.

“Who’s there!”

“Elite Team, go tell James that the Troll Berserker Legion is here.”

Fang Ping heard Elsa’s words. Troll Berserker Legion?

Soon, a deep horn sounded in the camp. Footsteps, horses, and flames lit up. Figures moved.

A few tall horses walked straight towards the Elite Team. Leading them was James.

“Our scouts have found nothing. Where did your information come from? Is it accurate?”

Elsa stood at the front and said, “I believe that my student, it should be the Troll Berserker Legion. If you don’t form up a formation first, even you won’t be able to deal with them.”

James glanced at the Elite Team and said to the people beside him, “Pass down the order. Set up the horses and prepare the big shields. Everyone, get ready.”

“Captain, what do these students know? The brat said that he didn’t find anything unusual. Is there a need for us to make such a big fuss? Our brothers have walked for a day and have worked hard. They haven’t rested much…”

James cut him off. “Pass it on!”

He sat up straight, saluted James, glanced at the Elite Team, reined in, turned his horse, and walked back.

“Captain Su, I believe you this time. Your Elite Team, go to the back. If it’s really the Troll Berserker Legion, it’s not something you can deal with.”

“No need. They’re also Professionals.”

Elsa shook her head. “To deal with the Troll Berserkers, we either focus fire on them and kill them instantly, or slowly wear them down. Although my people can’t kill them instantly, we can slowly wear them down with long-range attacks.”

“Alright, then don’t disturb our charge on the main road of the fortress.”

“Sure.”

As they spoke, some soldiers carried their horses over and placed them on the road.

James said, “Let’s go. Stand behind the barricade.”

“Reporting, Captain. We’ve discovered more than fifty Troll Berserkers. They’re less than two kilometers away from us.”

Hearing a report, James glanced at Elsa, turned his horse, clipped its belly, and sped away.

“Fang Ping, you’ll command.”

After James left, Elsa’s voice sounded.

Fang Ping retracted his gaze from the darkness. Teacher Elsa was probably right. It was the Troll Berserker Legion.

It was difficult to determine the number, but the incoming enemies were all Troll Berserkers and Troll Warriors.

They were not easy to deal with. With high health, coupled with the Fury characteristic, they get braver and more ferocious the more they fought. If they faced multiple enemies at the same time, their strength would increase faster than the Heroic characteristic.

Therefore, to deal with them, he would either use his strongest attack to quickly kill them or use an extremely low attack to wear them down without triggering Fury.

Characteristic Fury 2: Every time you receive damage above 10 points of attack power, you will gain 2 points of strength.

With so many Troll Berserkers, Fang Ping believed that this battle would definitely not be easy.

“Everyone, put your backpacks beside the carriage and gather here.”

Fang Ping gave the first order. At this moment, the others listened and placed their backpacks beside the carriage.

Fang Ping put his bag away and glanced at the Lord’s Guards. Most of the torches in the camp had been extinguished. The Spear Cavalry had left.

There was only a long passageway paved with some grass. However, this was an icy path after all. He did not know if there would be any accidents when the spear Knights charged later. He hoped not.

The warhorses were tied to the carriage beams. The Knights dismounted and became infantry.

The Heroic Longswords that were raised high in their hands were hung at their waists. All of them only held shields in their hands. It seemed that they did not intend to attack.

Similarly, the more they fought, the braver they became.

Therefore, to the Fury characteristic, not attacking was the best way to restrain it.

The horses were arranged in a long line. The soldiers stood in front of the horses with their backs against them. They raised their shields and stared into the darkness at the foot of the hill.

A few soldiers were holding torches. The torches swayed in the cold wind and flickered. Looking into the distance, it was still quiet.

In the darkness, it was still calm.

The Elite Team also put down their backpacks and gathered over.

Fang Ping looked into the distance. There was a moon tonight, but it was not considered bright. There was nothing in the distance. However, the feedback given by the characteristic told Fang Ping that something was approaching.

“Everyone, get ready. Melee combatants in front, ranged combatants behind. Those with a little more strength are prohibited from attacking.”

“We don’t have many arrows,” a Ranger said.

Fang Ping did not respond. Something appeared in his line of sight. First, it was a tall figure. Then, a second, a third… A large group of Trolls appeared.

“Everyone, get ready.”

“Hold your ground!”

The soldier in front shouted.

Fang Ping also stared at the Troll Berserker in front of him. They saw the Humans who were ready for battle. Knowing that they had been discovered, they no longer hid their whereabouts. They roared, raised their weapons, and rushed over in large strides.

As they got closer and closer, cracking sounds could be heard. The smooth ice path could not stop their footsteps. Their heavy bodies crushed the ice with one step.

...

This was too exaggerated.

Fang Ping thought to himself.

“Ugh!”

“Hua!”

The Trolls quickly rushed over. They raised their axes high, and their bodies basically lit up with orange light.

Encouragement, Heroic, Alert, Battle Roar, Slash Tactics… Status skills hung on his body like they didn’t need energy.

In the middle of the defensive line, there were no obstacles. There were the most people here and the biggest shields.

One of them held a shield and a long sword. He was James’s assistant and the current commander.

He raised his sword and shouted, “All troops, defend!”

All the soldiers lit up with a silver-gray light, and then their bodies revealed a black iron luster.

Fang Ping knew that the entire army was guarding this skill. All allies could not move. They had obtained the characteristic Heavy Armor 1, which reduced the damage caused by one point of strength.

...

The advantage of this skill was very obvious. Everyone would obtain a special characteristic, Heavy Armor 1. On the battlefield, especially in this situation, it was very useful to hold the position and resist attacks.

However, there was also a negative effect of being unable to move. If someone was focused on at this moment, it would be very dangerous.

However, the Trolls didn’t seem to want to focus fire. The Trolls were extremely confident in their strength. The Gnomes would join forces, but the Trolls don’t bother to besiege.
