Chapter Fifty-Six: The Second Wave of Beasts
The soldiers on the city wall were prepared, picked up the oil barrel next to him and threw it down, and smashed it on the head of the beast below, and the oil barrel burst open, bursting out of the oil oil.
As soon as the torch touched the oil, it was like a spark encountering explosives, and it began to ignite a raging fire, and the flames spread wantonly, devouring everything around the person, and the hair on the beast's body was originally a treasure to resist damage and cold, but now it has become an accomplice of the flames, and the dry hair makes the flames burn more fully.
Under the high temperature and flames, the alien beasts let out a series of miserable screams, telling the power of the flames.
The warriors of the alien beast clan, who had dared to charge bravely in the face of the dense rain of arrows, were vulnerable under this merciless fire, and the alien beasts behind them, who had not yet been affected by the flames, saw such a tragic scene and fled in a hurry, even regardless of the direction, hoping to get as far away from this terrible flame as possible.
Due to the help of fire oil, and the soldiers on the castle tower have been discarding hay, dry wood and other flammable materials, which makes the flames burn more violently and last longer, this merciless fire has been burning until the evening, and there are sparks in front of the walls of the battle city like elves jumping playfully in the dark night.
The corpses of the alien beasts were piled up like charcoal, and from time to time they emitted a strange smell of flesh, which made the human soldiers standing guard on the city walls shudder.
After a daytime battle, the alien beast group obviously weakened a lot, and due to hunger, there was no food supplement, and the physical strength and patience decreased significantly, and from time to time there were half-dead alien beasts burned by the flames wailing and screaming.
Marshal's Big Tent, where all the high-level leaders of the Beast Tide Coalition are gathered, but the atmosphere here is the opposite of the tragic situation of the alien beast group outside, not only is it not heavy after a big defeat, on the contrary, everyone present has more or less a smile on their faces.
"In this trial, it can basically be determined that the military equipment in the battle city is within the normal range, and there is nothing beyond our expectations. Hu Zhi took the lead and said.
"Well, just by dispatching the alien beasts at the bottom, they can reach under the city wall, it can be seen that after an entire soulless era, the human power is indeed greatly damaged, and until now, I haven't seen even a single cultivator appear, which is very strange and unreasonable. The Frost Wolf King, who was also one of the leaders of the alien beasts of the Beast Tide Alliance this time, spoke.
"Well, as the frontier of the Xianwu Empire, this battle city can't have such a little strength, otherwise it would have been destroyed a long time ago, how could it have existed until now. Lady Snake nodded in agreement.
"So tomorrow's offensive will be strengthened, except for those few alien beast races with special roles who will not move, the rest can be sent out to attack the battle city, strive to force out their hidden strength, and strive for information superiority for the final general attack. The Golden Lion also said.
As soon as the golden lion's words fell, Nan Litian looked at his mouth and said, "Then will our major races also participate in the attack?"
Nan Litian's question asked the hearts of everyone present, it is true that they are the leaders of the Beast Tide Coalition this time, and they should contribute to the coalition's attack on the city, but having said that, everyone present is not willing to let their race be used as cannon fodder to attack the city like those low-level beasts.
After all, they can stand here and talk eloquently at this moment, and in just a few words, they can decide the fate of tens of millions of Beast Tide Alliance, relying on their own strength and the power of the race, otherwise what qualifications would they have to be appointed by the Alliance Council as one of the top leaders of the Beast Tide Alliance.
Therefore, it is unrealistic for them to send their own races to attack the city and consume their own power team, so the golden lion said without thinking: "Our races are the elite of my alien beast clan, like this kind of charge ahead, the task of testing the hole cards of human forces, just leave it to those low-level alien beasts, our main task is to sit in the rear, and go to the battle when the human forces send masters, and play a decisive role." ”
The Golden Lion's righteous words made the high-level members of the Beast Tide Alliance, who also had this intention, nod their heads again and again, indicating that they agreed with the Golden Lion's statement and followed the marshal's orders.
Seeing their hypocrisy, Mu Qu couldn't help but sigh, who said that the beasts were all reckless men with one tendon? Stand up, I promise not to kill you, this is called a reckless man, how long has it been, after singing the sweetness brought by power, this group of originally upright alien beasts is also as shameless as human politicians, and deeply feels how serious the lust for power is to rot at them, but Mu Qu will not stand up against it, although the task given to him by the alliance council has consumed this group of high-level forces, but Ke Musen has his own ideas, he feels that the elimination of this new group of high-level alien beast races is not a good thing for him, but these emerging alien beast overlords have always existed, and the old overlords, Especially the confrontation between the twelve members of the Alliance Council other than himself and one honorary member of the Council, this is a great thing for Ke Musen, which proves that he doesn't have to deal with those old things by himself, someone helps him share the pressure of the Alliance Council, and Ke Musen can also take over his prestige in the emerging Alien Beast Overlord to recruit him to work for him, expand his own power, accumulate what he lacks, and make up for the gap between himself and the old Alien Beast Overlord.
So when everyone looked at themselves, the only one in the audience who showed that he had the background of the alliance council boss behind him, and wanted to make a statement, Mu Qu readily agreed with the words of the golden lion.
Early the next morning, the alien beast group gathered again, but this time it was different from the last time, this time there were more alien beasts, and they were more powerful, not only the land beast tide army, but also the air army led by Qingluan, and the land army attacked the battle city together.
The officers and soldiers of the battle city did not have any pressure on this, after all, yesterday's battle had shown that this beast tide could not pose any threat to the war city at all, and the officers and soldiers who were originally ready to attack under the requirements of the war world and wanted to do their best to keep the battle city from losing were like gathering strength and condensing all their strength to punch the cotton, so even if the war world was reminding and letting the army under them be careful, the soldiers were a little slack.
Therefore, seeing that the beast once again gathered a large army and came to attack the battle city, the soldiers laughed at its inadequacy.
It's no wonder that the combat power of yesterday's beast tide is indeed unsatisfactory, but today's beast tide is different from yesterday, if you still defend with yesterday's impression, the frontier army of Zhancheng will definitely suffer a big loss.
