Chapter 275: The Wind Rises
A deep voice sounded behind Jacques: "Trouble, let's make it okay!"
Jacques looked back and behind him was a burly guy in a Legion uniform, who was supposed to be talking just now. Looking to the left and right, before you know it, every battlement is occupied by legionnaires or city guards.
Stepping back to make way for the battlement, Jacques asked casually, "Are you going to use the Synergy Source Energy Technique?"
The sturdy legionnaire said angrily under the helmet: "At this time, of course, you have to rely on the army, and you can't resist them without cooperating with the Source Energy Technique." ”
I couldn't see the expression behind the helmet, but Jacques judged from his tone that this legionnaire should be a person who didn't match his tough appearance, so he simply took the opportunity to talk a few words: "Hello sir, my name is Jacques, I have a bit of a problem, you don't have a backteam replacement, is it really okay?"
Two teams of legionnaires and three teams of city guards were able to cover the hundred-meter wall of the third defensive section, and it was obvious that there was no support from the rear team. The synergistic source energy technique can't be maintained for a long time, and how to solve it when encountering waves of insect swarms that continue to attack?
"I'm Ryan, it's your first time participating in the defense of the city, you'll know later. The legionnaire looked back.
Jacques wanted to say a few more words, and the Captain of Ten, who was three stacks apart and wore yellow and white helmets and feathers, had already begun to give the order: "All ready, concentrated, and reconciled." ”
The key point of using the synergistic source energy technique is that everyone needs to synchronize with the ten-man source energy as the core of the formation, and the energy of the ten people will explode together, so the consistency of the ten people's movements is the most basic requirement.
Not daring to disturb Ryan any longer, Jacques took two steps back and simply searched for his friends at the top of the city.
"Transmitter...... Prepare for ......"
Hyde's command shattered the silence on the city walls.
However, it seems that the section chiefs of the other defensive sections are more anxious, and some black objects have been thrown from under the city, flying out of the city in an arc.
"Launch ......"
Hyde also gave the order to attack.
The workers under the city struck the firing mechanism of the small trebuchet with a wooden mallet, and the swing arm flicked, and a black ball with a diameter of more than one foot was thrown out by the swing arm, flew out of seven or eight hundred meters, and then smashed to the ground.
The black ball hit the ground, and it did not explode as many expected, but it immediately cracked, splashing yellow liquid. Unaffected, the legionnaires contaminated with the yellow liquid continued to walk in a neat pace.
Jacques noticed that the Legionnaire Ant's forward was only three hundred meters away from the wall when the Black Ball was fired, so the Legionnaire in front of it was not contaminated with the liquid in the Black Ball.
After firing one round, the four workers pushed the winch to the swing arm, and the other two worked together to load another black ball onto the trebuchet, and they launched the next black ball without Hyde's order.
The black balls flew out one after another, but they could not stop the advance of the legionnaires, and their forward was about 100 meters away from the city wall.
The soldiers on the city wall were surprisingly quiet, silently watching the legionnaires gradually approach, waiting for them to attack the city wall.
The black tide rushed to the bottom of the city and began to extend upwards, trying to flood the walls.
If you look closely, you will find that these one-foot-long ants do not cling to the cracks in the rock of the city wall like beetles and centipedes to climb up, but the legionnaires in the front row stand still under the city after they arrive, and the back row climbs on the backs of the front row and becomes the stepping stone of the rear team, so that the layers are stacked into a slope, so that the later legionnaires can easily attack the city wall.
Until the black wave of ant slopes was about to spread to the head of the city, countless illusory spears appeared from the head of the city and pierced down into the colony.
The "Phalanx", the most widely used and most basic collaborative source energy technique, is a compulsory skill for every soldier, whether a legion soldier or a city guard. The "Phalanx" exhibits different characteristics depending on the attributes of the transcendent who is the core of the Synergy Source Energy Technique, so the spears on the walls are also of different colors, and they look colorful and gorgeous from the air.
It's just that these brilliant spears represent killing, and even if the ants close to the range of the spear array are not pierced, they will be torn apart by the source energy circulating in the spear array, and the black tide is blocked by the colored breakwater.
Waves of legionnaire ants crashed into the spear array without hesitation, turning into a piece of corpses and falling from the gap in the slope, and gradually cushioned the slope.
The "phalanx" lasted for half a minute, and many of the warriors were already sweating profusely to hold on. Generally speaking, the rhythm of the army's use of the Synergy Source Skill is to maintain it for about ten seconds at a time, and then take a slight break so that it can be used again. This kind of cooperation skill can be used a few times to see how long the team's weakest board can last, and the average Awakened soldier is more than enough to cast a rhythm of ten seconds and a two-minute rest, and release more than twenty times in a row.
Continuing to output like this for half a minute has almost drained the physical strength and source energy of these soldiers, and they cannot be used again without a half-hour break. In Jacques' view, they didn't arrange a back-up fill-in, so they were planning to use it only once.
Only use it once, but what about the back hand?
"Flamethrower!
Hyde and the other section leaders ordered the flamethrower to be activated at about the same time.
The flamethrowers on the walls spewed fire at the same time, and the first defenders of the city discovered that many legionnaires burned violently as soon as they touched the sparks, while their companions continued their climb, only to be scorched by the spreading flames, and soon burned to the point of overturning, and died after a few struggles.
Compared to the previous swarm burned by the flamethrower, these legionnaires burned much faster, and the flames began to spread far away, and many legionnaires that were not burned by the flamethrower also began to burn.
Jacques also understood at this time that the yellow liquid in the black ball was a flammable substance that would burn violently once ignited.
Due to the continuous projection of the trebuchet, most of the legionnaires in the rear stepped on the yellow liquid on the ground even if they were not directly splashed with the yellow liquid, so most of the legionnaires in the back row who were still moving forward with neat steps were six slender feet, but they still moved forward with burning steps until they couldn't open their legs and fell, while the legionnaires behind it continued to move forward despite the burning of the flames and rushed into the fire.
The legionnaire is fearless and uniform, but it is completely destroyed by the flames, and it is buried in the fire one after another.
The soldiers' synergistic source energy skills could no longer be maintained, but instead of evacuating from the battlements at the head of the city, they picked up the jars under their feet and smashed them down. The jar was also a flammable yellow liquid, and soon the city was in flames, and the oblique cloaks of legionnaires collapsed in the flames.
The flames under the wall made it impossible to get close to the battlements, and the soldiers who had lost the jars stepped back, watching the flames from afar with the other defenders, waiting for the legionnaires to perish themselves.
I didn't expect that the legionnaire ants, which I thought were the most terrifying, were so easily destroyed.
Lily suddenly said to Jacques beside her, "The wind is blowing!"
