Chapter 126: War Golems and Geistels
On the north city wall, Lu Ming only had four law enforcement hall demon envoys around him, including Niu Bi, and most of the remaining two hundred people were city guards and loose cultivators.
"Hall Master, what are we doing here, there is a government division in the north, and there is also a Zhennan army in the south, there is no enemy who can get close to Qinglan City, right?" Niu Bi approached Lu Ming, who closed his eyes and recuperated, and was a little bored.
They had been here for three days, not to mention the enemy, not even a single beast.
"Wouldn't it be better to have no enemies, we just need to get food and grass into the city. Lu Ming said calmly.
Today's Qinglan City, in addition to those wounded who retreated from the battlefield, only has a large amount of hoarded food and grass, pills and other military supplies, and its importance can be imagined.
"I want to go to the battlefield too, what's the point of staying here. Niu Bi was eager to try, eager to join the Zhennan Army, and went straight to the front line to fight with the demon beast.
"Don't worry, if you have a chance, don't be soft when the time comes. Lu Ming glanced at Niu Bi a little strangely and said with a teasing smile.
He could realize that the storm hidden under the calm was coming. According to the news from the front line, the Temple of the Immortal never appeared in the Great War, where did they go, who were good at hiding their tracks?
"I'm afraid it will soon pop up at the rear of the battlefield......" Lu Ming was a little expectant, he could see the so-called Immortal Legion of the Immortal Palace.
On the nineteenth night of the first lunar month, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and the cold wind was still blowing, blowing the flags on the city's head.
Lu Ming, who was standing in the center of the city wall, suddenly had round eyes, and the golden light inside was shining, looking down at the earth in the dark night under the city.
"Ready!" Lu Ming shouted in a shocking voice, penetrating the night sky, and even spreading throughout half of Qinglan City.
"What's it?!" Niu Bi woke up in shock, looked at it with great eyes, and was suddenly taken aback.
Beneath the city walls, as far as the eye could see, figures crawled out of the ground, stood up, and then ran silently towards the city gates.
At a glance, there are thousands of figures, to say the least. This is not the most terrifying, what is terrible is that the armor worn by these people is clearly no different from the soldiers of the Zhennan Army.
Moreover, most of the people's armor is already in tatters, and many people are even seriously injured, and those who are missing arms and legs are considered intact.
Looking at the eyes of those people again, they were all numb, except for the occasional flash of a strange red dot.
"This is the general of the Zhennan Army?" Niu Bi was puzzled, and the scattered cultivators and city guards on the other city heads were also shocked, and they didn't know where this large wave of friendly troops came out.
However, Lu Ming said expressionlessly: "They are already dead, they are puppets controlled by the Immortal Palace, or war puppets." ”
The corpses of these manipulated soldiers reminded Lu Ming of zombies, but they were more flexible than zombies, and even maintained their fighting instincts before death, and the most terrifying thing was that they were not afraid of death.
Without waiting for Niu Bi to ask again, Lu Ming shouted again: "Everyone is not allowed to go out of the city, prepare to release arrows and aim at the head." ”
The corpses manipulated by the Immortal Temple had one thing in common, no matter how badly damaged their bodies were, their heads were still intact. Therefore, Lu Ming can conclude that the key point of these corpse war puppets is the head.
In the dead silence, a group of war puppets swarmed, and there was no shouting of killing, but it was even more terrifying.
It wasn't until they were nearly 100 meters close to the city wall that Lu Ming waved his hand and shouted, "Release the arrow!"
Whether it is the city guards, or the scattered cultivators or the demon envoys, they have already prepared a large number of bows and arrows around them, waiting for this moment. Although some people have not specifically practiced bow and arrow martial arts, it is not difficult for them to simply draw a bow and shoot an arrow to aim, just like eating and drinking water.
Arrows of light burst out from the walls, buzzing, each pointing precisely at the head of a war golem.
Bang!
Some of the war puppets fell in response and could not get up again, but there were also more war golems who swung their swords and arrows and continued to rush. Most of these war puppets were martial arts generals before their deaths, and they only needed to protect their heads, so they could be said to be at ease.
Rumble!
Lu Ming shot an arrow, bringing out a deafening sonic boom, and the streamer pierced the night sky, passing through five or six war puppets all the way, and none of them were spared. Whether it was blocked with a knife or with an arm, it was directly penetrated by Lu Ming's arrows.
"The hall master is good at archery, I didn't expect you to practice such martial arts!" Niu Bi was killing one by one, and when he saw the lethality of Lu Ming's cannon-like archery, he was suddenly shocked and shouted.
"Don't be distracted!" Lu Ming snorted coldly, and continued to fire arrows in a row, helping the city guards in other directions to guard the loopholes.
He knows how to use a hammer and arrow, but he just relies on his vigorous qi and blood, plus the injection of some spiritual power, and the change of direction with the wind control supernatural power. It's just that the battlefield is chaotic, and no one can detect the fluctuations of hidden spiritual power contained in his crooking arrows.
Boom......
Dozens of arrows went out one after another, and Lu Ming swept a large area of war puppets, and sure enough, as long as they hit the head, those war puppets could no longer stand up, and the dead could not die again.
While Lu Ming continued to shoot arrows, he did not forget to send a message to the defenders in other directions to pass on this trick.
At this moment, not only in the north of the city, but also under the city walls in the other three directions, there were also war puppets of the Immortal Palace.
The easiest thing was the south of the city guarded by Tie Lihua, because there was Ling Fenghou's team there, and those war puppets couldn't get close to the city wall at all, so they were swept away.
"Don't worry about who they were, they've all been controlled by demons and lost consciousness. Only by killing them can we help them be freed. Lu Ming saw that some people around him showed unbearable expressions, and their shots were soft, and he immediately shouted loudly.
Rumble!
Another arrow rushed out, but this time it didn't work, and among the war puppets under the city wall, a strong soldier suddenly rushed out, and the golden light on his body rose sharply, blocking Lu Ming's arrows.
At the same time, the same situation appeared in other directions, and soon it was in a continuous patch, which seemed to form a continuous golden light barrier, protecting the army of war puppets behind them, and then advancing towards the city wall together.
Lu Ming's eyes flashed, and he could see that these war puppets that suddenly appeared were probably masters of the product before they were alive, and they can still maintain seventy or eighty percent of their qi and blood power and apply them in battle.
Especially the person who caught Lu Ming's arrow has the power of seven grades, as if he is the strongest in this group of war puppets.
Roar, roar, ah......
At this moment, the calamity was not alone, and suddenly there was a mysterious roar in the night sky.
This voice is mixed with various complex emotions such as pain, unwillingness, grievance, anger, etc., which makes people feel turbulent and difficult to hold on.
Lu Ming's face changed slightly, and he said secretly: "Wandering soul!"
