Chapter 341: The Black Tide Escalates
Watching the old naughty boy beat Aite into the pile of rocks with one palm, and even cut Aite's two cronies in half with a sword, all the soldiers were silent for a while, and no one dared to mention the word retreat......;
"Draw your weapons and get ready to fight!"
The old urchin shouted loudly, and the sound spread in all directions, and the troops guarding all the key crossings could hear it clearly! For a while, the sound of weapons unsheathed continued to sound, and the brilliance of various enchanted weapons or skills flickered non-stop, and all the soldiers stared at the necromantic creatures that were constantly rushing out of the black fog with serious and nervous expressions—the battle between the human army and the necromantic creatures was about to break out!
Although the black mist continued to expand in all directions after it appeared, and a steady stream of necromantic creatures rushed out of it, the number has not been large, most of them are only three or two big cats and small cats, like before, more than a dozen necromantic warriors suddenly attacked the pass held by the Aite squadron, that is a rare situation! But now, after the previous mutations, the frequency of undead creatures rushing out of the black fog has undoubtedly become more frequent, and the number has also increased greatly, and even the threshold where the old urchin is now has rushed out of hundreds of necromantic warriors at once!
With a sword in his hand, he split an elite-level necromantic warrior who rushed up into pieces of bones, and looking at the soldier who was gradually showing fatigue, the old naughty boy couldn't help frowning: " Although in terms of the quality of individual soldiers, even these new recruits in their hands are better than these brainless necromantic creatures; no matter how elite the human soldiers are, they will also feel tired and injured, and the number is limited, and the casualties will be one less, but these necromantic creatures are different, their numbers are endless, and they are inexhaustible, no matter how weak they are, they can be bulldozed by numbers alone! No wonder the previous black tides can sweep across the continent, and once this erupts, it is not something that one city or one country can resist at all!"
Although it seemed a little difficult for his soldiers to resist these necromantic warriors, the old urchin never exerted all his strength, no, to be precise, he didn't contribute at all! Otherwise, not to mention the hundreds of necromantic warriors in front of him, even if the number doubled, it would not be enough for the old naughty boy to have a few big moves!
But this is not the old naughty boy, because through the previous battles, he has already seen that unlike the elite of the territory and the battle-hardened Tianqin patrol, at least more than half of these city defense soldiers are real recruits! Even if they are so-called veterans, at most they usually have some small battles such as chasing thieves and exterminating demonic beasts that accidentally injure civilians, and there are no ones who have actually been on the battlefield! But as the viscount said, soldiers who have not really seen blood and killed people cannot become real elites! Since the viscount appointed himself as ' 'Commander-in-Chief of the Anti-Necromancy', the old urchin feels that he has an obligation to train these little rabbit cubs for the viscount, so as to live up to the importance he attaches to his old bones!
Of course, these are not the most important things, the most important thing is that so far, most of the necromantic creatures that have rushed out of the black fog are only cannon fodder and elite level, and even the boss level is rare, and there are almost no above the commander level! This seems to be a good thing, but if you think about it, the black magic of the disaster level like the Kuroshio, it may only produce these low-level cannon fodder!? So although the old urchin looks careless, in fact, he is recuperating his energy and preparing for those high-level necromantic creatures that may appear at any time!
"Look, a new ghost thing is out!"
"What the hell is that?!"
In a burst of shouting, many soldiers couldn't help but gasp as they followed the prestige - the newly appeared ghost creatures were nearly three meters tall, covered in blood-colored heavy armor, their huge eyes flashed with a strange red light, and they were carrying a ghost-headed broadsword burning with red flames in their hands!
Feeling the compelling momentum on these ghost creatures, all the soldiers couldn't help but feel worried in their hearts, and they even suspected that even if they were also third-order squadron leaders, they might not be able to beat these tall and powerful ghost things!
Because Leitch had given the old urchin a book of necromantic creatures before leaving, he recognized at a glance what the hell these ghosts were-leader-level war ghosts! The body is tall, powerful and fast, and except for the soul fire in the eye sockets, it can be said that there is no weakness in the whole body, and it is an extremely difficult existence among low-level necromantic creatures!
According to the illustrated book, the war ghost is not a common necromantic creature, and it needs to be devoured by a low-level necromantic warrior to devour countless soul fires, and it is possible to form it by chance;
"Don't panic, this is just a boss-level war ghost! as long as you crush the soul fire in their eye sockets, they will definitely die!" As the old urchin explained loudly, many soldiers gradually calmed down, and although these war ghosts gave people a strong momentum, after all, there were only three heads, and there were more than five hundred people on their side (the old urchin followed Leitch's order and gathered many city defense troops to hold only a few important passes; but this also meant that the defense line was wide open), even if one person slashed, it was enough to cut these war ghosts into slag!
"Pedal, pedal—"
Several war ghosts pushed away the necromantic warriors crowded in front, the red glow in their eyes was extremely bright, and the ghost-headed broadsword that was held high was even more blazing like a torch!
"Rub!"
A war ghost slashed at a pile of wooden fences, and a wave-shaped firelight flew straight out, instantly destroying the improvised military fortification, leaving a scorched black crack more than ten meters long!
"Shhhh
The power of the war ghost's knife made many soldiers gasp, if they were to be slashed themselves, they had no doubt that they would not even have coke left!
"What's the panic, it's just some brainless idiots!" the old urchin sneered, raised his hand and said, "Throw a gun and prepare!"
At the command of the old urchin, the five hundred soldiers behind the fortifications began to move, some of the soldiers who had been in the front moved to the sides, while some of the soldiers who had been in the back moved to the front and formed a tight array, and behind them all carried a long cloth bag full of fifty javelins!
"Remember the instructions the professor gave you to move, aim!"
Hearing this, a full thirty soldiers raised their javelins, and the tips of the guns stabbed obliquely into the sky, flashing with a cold and cold glow of metal! However, the inclination of the javelins in the hands of these thirty soldiers was not exactly the same, and even some of them had a slight tremor in their hands, obviously throwing guns was quite a challenge for them!
"Shoot!"
Just like the fight scene in the drama "Journey to the West" that Leitch watched before the crossing, the old naughty boy's word 'shooting' kept repeating in the minds of the thirty gunshooters, three circles on the left and three circles on the right, and then they vaguely only remembered that when their hands shook, the javelin in their hands flew out with a 'whoosh'!
"Bang bang bang!"
Although these thirty people are all novices, after all, as an awakened person, they still have the ability, except for a few that missed, at least more than five-sixths of the javelins hit the target! With a few violent sounds, the three-headed battle exploded in an instant!
"Good!"
Seeing that the tall war ghost was blown up in just one round of throwing guns, all the soldiers couldn't help cheering!
But at this time, the old urchin shouted in a deep voice: "Don't be careless, they are not dead yet!"
As soon as the old stubborn fairy tale fell, many soldiers were shocked to find that those war ghosts that had just exploded in front of their eyes had quickly combined again, and because of the previous explosion, these war ghosts had 'unexpectedly' narrowed the distance between them and them! Even the nearest war ghost was less than five meters away from the front-line troops! The ghost-headed broadsword that had been raised high was about to fall to the soldiers who were already stunned at the front!
At this time, the old urchin smiled coldly and said, "Crossbowman, shoot!"
With a wave of the old urchin's hand, a dense black shadow flew out, and the three-headed war ghost was exposed to the air, and the soul fire was instantly shot, and then collapsed! The bones they had just reassembled collapsed again, and this time there was no movement, they were already dead and could not die again!
"It's so strong!"
Looking at the hundreds of 'crossbowmen' at the very edge of the troops, all the private soldiers couldn't help but show admiration, even if these were women who many of them secretly looked down on or were jealous of! Especially those soldiers who were closest to each other, one by one they had a tingling feeling on their scalps -- the moment the crossbow arrows were fired, a trace of death involuntarily flashed in their minds!
That's right, these 100 crossbowmen were specially dispatched from the Tianqin Patrol, and there were only 800 people, divided into eight teams to guard each pass with the various city defense troops! As for why there were only these 800 people, it was because the Tianqin Patrol was mainly used to guard the Holy City of Tianqin, and if it weren't for the order given by Leitch and Mavis together, the old urchin wouldn't even have these 800 Tianqin patrols in his hands now!
At first, in fact, the old urchin didn't care much about these hundreds of people, not that he looked down on women, but the number was here. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info But he was very interested in the crossbow or Alec's repeater in each of them! Like the round of shooting just now, the old urchin was also secretly surprised in his heart - although he had heard about the specific experience of the battle in Eagle's Nest Mountain before, he had not personally experienced it after all, so he somewhat did not believe that the power of the 'crossbow' could really catch up with the bow and arrow! But now seeing is believing, the power of this 'crossbow' is really true! But what makes the old urchin feel most admired is that this powerful, The weapon that any Awakened can use is actually designed by his own Viscount!
Genius! For Leitch, the old urchin can only think of these two words to describe it! And Leitch is his aunt, which makes him proud!
