Chapter Seventy-Eight: Stars Fall Like Rain

"Ready...... Shoot!"

With Bolomo's order, those elite soldiers with fighting spirit carried out the first volley at the city of Minas Tirith, under the power of the fighting spirit, the arrows directly brought out the explosion of sound waves, shooting through the bodies of the half-orcs, bursting into large holes in their bodies, and the hundreds of half-orcs who rushed to the front were immediately shot into hundreds of pools of rotten meat.

But the blood seemed to stimulate the ferocity of the orcs, and this round of arrow rain did not stop the footsteps of the army, and more orcs stepped on the corpses of their companions and rushed up with several ladders. At the same time, the trebuchets behind the orcs were also in operation, pouring a large number of stones against the city of Minas Tirith.

Compared to the flying stones on the orc side, the number of trebuchets in the city pales in comparison. But Boromo was clearly prepared, and he specially prepared fortifications and cover measures near the trebuchets, so that as long as they were not directly hit by the opponent's stones, then the trebuchets were safe.

However, no matter how well prepared you are, accidents always happen. I saw that several soldiers were laboriously carrying a large stone onto the trebuchet, and when they were about to launch, a huge shadow suddenly appeared in the sky. When they looked up, they were greeted by a boulder, and it landed in their direction......

[It's over!]

Just as the soldiers were about to close their eyes and wait for death, they heard an explosion in the sky, followed by a splash of rubble, but fortunately, the defenses were in place and did not cause any substantial damage. And when they opened their eyes in confusion, they found that an expressionless man with glasses was holding two unknown weapons in front of them, and the boulder just now had been shattered.

"Go on. ”

Chu Xuan didn't drag the mud and water, after he threw down the two words, he pulled the trigger on a boulder in the air that was smashed here, and in the next second, there was a rain of gravel here.

"Yes...... Yes!"

―――――――― Dividing Line――――――――

Although the trebuchets in the city were protected by Chu Xuan, there were too many trebuchets on the opposite side, and large pieces of stones fell on the city wall, which caused great pressure on the defenders. The orcs, on the other hand, took advantage of this opportunity and approached the city wall in one go.

Perhaps if humans were in command of this group of orcs, they would have been a little uneasy about suppressing the defenders on the walls of Minas Tirith so smoothly. No matter how fierce the trebuchet's firepower is, it will not overwhelm the archers, and compared to the wave of arrows that killed hundreds of orcs just now, the current arrows are just tickling......

However, in the eyes of the orcs, they would have thought that the humans of Minas Tirith were vulnerable and would only rely on the tall walls, and under the pressure of the trebuchets, they had now given up their resistance and shrunk behind the walls. As soon as they set up ladders and rushed into the city, it was a one-sided slaughter.

However, just as the countless orcs approached less than two hundred meters from the city wall, Boromo's roar rang out above the city wall.

"Archer! ready!"

In an instant, a black oppressive human head suddenly appeared on the city wall, and their eyes shone with anger, and they clenched their longbows in their hands, and aimed the cold and shining arrows at the orcs who were close at hand below the city......

"Shoot!"

With Boromo's command, countless arrows flew out like locusts, knocking the orcs at the front to the ground. It's just that after this round of attacks, the orcs are like wheat that has been cut down.

"Second team of archers ready!

After the first round of arrows, the archers who shot the arrows retreated, and the second group of archers behind them immediately stepped up and fired the deadly arrows again. After the third round of volleys, the corpses of the orcs who fell under the city walls were already thousands, which can be described as a brilliant victory.

"It's a pity that this group of newly trained soldiers still can't shoot effectively and sustainably, suppressing the orc army......"

Although he had shot thousands of orcs, Boromo looked at the trembling hands of some of the soldiers and sighed slightly. You must know that the vast majority of these archers are just ordinary people, and they are unable to shoot at high intensity without fighting spirit. And the fact that the army of orcs was so close to each other was also because the accuracy and body of the soldiers could not keep the arrows effective and lethal, which can be said to be half tactical, half helpless.

It seems that the half-orcs are naturally bloodthirsty, even if these three rounds of salvo fire, there is no way to stop their footsteps, and the remaining half-orcs still rush up, and if you want to have another round of salvo like before, it is obviously impossible in a short time......

"Damn ......" Boromo clenched his fists, but just as he drew his sword and prepared for the soldiers to start a hand-to-hand fight, a voice rang out beside him.

"I'll take care of the rest. ”

The person who spoke was Zhang Heng, and although his face was a little pale, it was full of determination. Without waiting for Boromo to answer, he walked up a few steps alone and raised the silver-gray longbow in his hand in front of him.

Boromo first reflexively stretched out his hand, wanting to stop Zhang Heng's move, in his opinion, it was impossible to turn the tide of the battle with the strength of one person, but when he reached halfway through, he suddenly remembered Zhang Heng's identity, so he stopped stopping ......

Zhang Heng didn't know that Boromo had turned so many thoughts in his heart, and he had been studying the power of this bow since Empress Galadriel unsealed it...... And now, it's time for real combat!

In an instant, the longbow in Zhang Heng's hand was violently pulled to the maximum, and an arrow that seemed to be composed of starlight suddenly condensed on the longbow string, and before the people around him could marvel at the brilliant starlight, the longbow in his hand was violently loosened. However, what was surprising was that the direction in which Zhang Heng shot this arrow was not the half-orc army, but straight above the sky.

"Stars like rain!"

With Zhang Heng's roar, I saw a beam of light rushing straight into the sky, like a bright star, and then the star disintegrated violently, dividing into more than a thousand starlights, falling from the sky to the ground like rain. In the blink of an eye, these starlights really pierced into the ground like rain, seemingly small, but they were really like arrows, only the sound of "brushing" could be heard, with Zhang Heng as the center, a large area around it, all of them were shrouded in starlight. And more than a thousand orcs in the range......

It's full of corpses!
