Chapter 187: The Sea of Beast Corpses and Fire (Asking for Tickets and Subscribing)
The ground shook more and more, but the people standing on the city wall remained motionless, it was just a shaking, and it was impossible for them to be confused.
It was nightfall, there had been no sun since autumn, the day was about to pass, and the night was nothing to everyone, even if there was no light.
But that was normal times, but it was not possible to put it at the moment when the fierce beast was attacking the city.
Night is night, and they have the ability to see things at night, but they don't have the ability to see night as dawn.
Shi Hao just watched all this, and didn't personally command, he knew very well what he was going to do and how he should do it, compared to what he was going to do, commanding the battle was not in his scope of consideration at all.
When the last light disappeared, the heavens and the earth fell into a hazy darkness, and the fierce beast that could only hear its voice in the distance finally appeared.
They came from all sides and surrounded the city.
If the last second you see is only the tip of the flood wave, then the next second you see the true face of the flood.
The beast that rushed was the flood, and it was rushing from afar, and the whole land was full of beasts, spreading on the earth like a stream of water.
I can't count their number, I don't have to count them at all, and I don't know how long their follow-up line is, the beast has red eyes, and its roar seems to shatter the heavens and the earth.
The Terran side was also breathing heavily, and they were silently counting the distance between the beast and the city wall, and the spears in their hands were already ready to fire.
One hundred and fifty zhang
One hundred and ten zhang
One hundred zhang.
"Throw a spear. ”
The many blood-moving commanders on the city wall let out a loud shout, and personally controlled the crossbow to aim at the ninth-grade or tenth-rank fierce beasts in the fierce beast group.
The range of the crossbow cannot be only a hundred zhang distance, but it is still necessary to pull the distance to a hundred zhang distance before shooting.
Because the crossbow can only exert its due power within a distance of 100 zhang, if it is outside a hundred zhang, every time there is an extra zhang, the power of the crossbow arrow will be a little smaller, not to mention the nine-grade fierce beast, the three-grade fierce beast may not be killed.
The spear was raised by the crowd, and they flew towards the beast group with all their might.
For a while, the sound of breaking the air was connected, and although the beast's roar was not suppressed, it was only able to compete with it with the sound of breaking the air.
Spears rain down like flying locusts, nailing or staggering the beast that rushes in front of it.
This is not fatal, of course you can't die if you stumble a few steps in ordinary times, but in this flood of beasts, you will inevitably fall to the ground when you shake your body, and you will never get up again.
The flood that bursts the levee cannot be contained in any case, and if the front wave falls to the ground, it will inevitably be directly submerged by the back wave.
The fallen beast was trampled into pulp in just a breath, and its bones were trampled into pieces and flying.
In this tide of beasts, there was no time to distinguish how many fierce beasts they were, and the warrior who controlled the crossbow did not have the leisure to choose.
They only believed that the tallest of the beasts, especially the existence that was significantly taller than one or two figures, was their target.
It is said in the human race that Mu Xiu will be destroyed by the forest wind, and it is the same when placed among the fierce beasts, and being tall is the greatest sin.
It is not clear whether the strength is strong or not, but it must be the easiest target to target.
And in that beast tide, there are not a few such existences.
Just when the spear fell from the sky, a giant ape with golden hair suddenly stood up, stretched out his long arm and took the fierce beast next to him in his hand, the giant ape only heard the sound of snorting, and the spear pierced the fierce beast like piercing the water bag.
The giant ape looked at the tip of the spear, and the beast's blood sprinkled on it like water along the tip of the spear, and the golden hair stained the blood, making the giant ape even more hideous.
It roared and threw the corpse at the wall, and the corpse shook the wall, and the stone shattered and clicked, but the corpse was also smashed into a pool of blood, and the wall was stained with blood for the first time.
The giant ape clenched his fists and roared and beat his chest, this was a demonstration, the giant ape was so ferocious, the fierce beasts that came wildly automatically separated from the two sides, and there were no fierce beasts within a meter around him who dared to approach.
The tall physique of the giant ape, of course, was noticed at the first time, and its power was unmatched for a while, but it also became a good target.
A crossbow bolt flashed with a glowing jade light, slashing through the air like a meteor, leaving only a jade-colored tail like a comet in the air it passed.
The beast's instinctive sense told it that it saw the light when danger was approaching, and it raised its palm to block it, and of course it could block it with its huge palm as hard as gold and stone.
But it slowed down, and the bolt slashed through its fingertips, thrusting through its eye socket and reaching deep into its skull at the terrifying roar of the great ape.
The fierce beast's strong vitality made it not die for a while, and the pain made it forget everything, and it couldn't care about any beast tide or blood food at all.
It went berserk in the herd of fierce beasts, destroying everything around it, but it didn't help at all, the crossbow arrow pierced into the skull, destroying the brain of the giant ape, it was angry, it exploded, but it couldn't stop the loss of life, until it was exhausted, it still fell as a nine-rank fierce beast, and crushed two low-level fierce beasts as soon as it fell.
If the overlord falls, there is no threat at all, and the fierce beast that smells the smell of blood bites the giant ape's corpse with its bloody mouth open, and can definitely improve its strength after a full meal.
Beasts are beasts, especially fierce beasts with low intelligence, no matter how many they do, it is all up to their animal nature.
This is not possible, they stop to eat the meat, but the beasts behind do not stop, and trample them into flesh with their hooves running.
This attack only advances, and it does not stop at all, as long as it stops, the Terrans cannot kill them, and their companions can trample them to death.
The giant ape has fallen, but it does not mean that the attack has stopped, and if a giant ape falls, there will be a giant tiger, a giant elephant, and a giant rhinoceros.
Compared to the luck of the giant ape, the rest of the eight or nine fierce beasts were much better.
There is a colorful giant tiger roaring like thunder, in the beast tide tiger leaping forward, everywhere it passes, the low-level fierce beasts are extremely chaotic, they want to dodge, but how to dodge.
The giant tiger didn't care whether they lived or died, but only rampage forward, and where the tiger's claws fell, the beast would be beaten to death by its huge force.
It faced a spear in the sky, and a single tiger roar could turn it into sawdust, until it jumped again, and the yellow and gray tiger fur sparkled in the firelight.
A crossbow bolt came out of nowhere, heading for its belly.
When the crisis came, the giant tiger was shocked by qi and blood, and a film of qi and blood covered his whole body, but this film of qi and blood blocked ordinary bows and arrows, and even blocked arrows, but if you want to block arrows at the level of sharp weapons, it is simply a dream of an idiot tiger.
The crossbow arrow easily broke through the blood film, and thrust through its abdomen with a snort, and even a small tip of the arrow appeared on its back.
Such an injury is not fatal, but it brings out its ferocity completely.
The giant tiger ran wildly, and there was no possibility of shooting another arrow at it.
This is only a part of the battlefield, more of it is a spear like a flying locust, and the five consecutive throws have left tens of thousands of corpses behind by the beast tide, but there are no beast corpses to be seen, all of them are trampled into bloody flesh by their kind.
The smell of blood permeated the entire battlefield, and the fierce beasts that smelled it were red-eyed, and they ran forward even more desperately.
A blood-red mist drifted through the air, and it was all the fiery blood of the beast.
The beast was closer to the walls, and the spears were consumed in the five throws.
When the tide of beasts came to the city, they stepped on the bodies of their companions and climbed up the city wall like arhats, and their claws were their best climbing tools.
Although the city wall was tall, it was made of ordinary mountain stones, and the claws of the beasts could dig a hole in it like grasping dirt, and for a time the entire outside of the city wall was full of fierce beasts hanging.
The dense beasts climb the wall, and anyone who sees it will be dizzy, but the people on the city wall will not, they only have full of fighting spirit, and the weapons are only waiting to drink blood.
"Fire. ”
A group of people stepped forward in order, torches in their hands, which seemed to have no deterrent power, and lit up the entire night sky red.
Of course, these torches are not for lighting, and no one would expect this ordinary torch to burn the beast to death, which is simply unrealistic.
"Throw torches, put oil on fire. ”
Torches flew in the air, flashing red and falling into the herd, and with them were thrown various containers of fire oil, which were thrown into the herd together.
Shi Hao didn't know their specific deployment, but at this time, it seemed that the plan was undoubtedly very thoughtful.
The tide of beasts came so fast that the hay or oil on the ground would have been trampled by the beasts even if they had time to throw out their torches.
But now it was different, the outside of the city walls was full of fierce beasts, and the oil and torches were thrown out together, and they could not be extinguished in any short time.
As long as the fire oil flows down the gap to the ground, ignites the hay and other debris on the ground, and then ignites the fire oil that was trampled by the fierce beast, it will be a monstrous fire.
Of course, this method can't deal with people, but it is enough to deal with beasts with insufficient intelligence.
A spark can start a prairie fire, not to mention the raging fire, which didn't take half an hour to make, and the entire outer ten zhang of the city wall was full of monstrous fire.
Everywhere is filled with the strange smell of fire oil mixed with meat.
The fierce beast roared in the sea of fire, scurrying around like a dizzy, obviously a very cruel scene, but on the Terran side, it was roaring excitedly.
The war between the two sides is life and death, it is better to be cruel to you than to be cruel to yourself, the more miserable you are, of course the happier I am, and I even want to clap my hands.
Setting fire can only be managed for a while, it will always go out, but it can take the lives of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of fierce beasts, and after this step, there will not be so many tricks.
It must be a short-handed battle, a real fight to the death, and there is no room for relaxation.
Shi Hao watched the warriors below throw the stones like humanoid trebuchets, throwing them specifically to places where the fierce beasts were concentrated, without thinking about the problem of accuracy.
As for the beasts that climbed the walls, there were men with sharp weapons standing waiting for them to come up.
Why not throw them down with stones, it also makes sense.
There are too many stones on the Terran side, not only on the city wall, but also at the foot of the city wall, at this time the top is throwing, and the bottom is also being transported upward, no one can be idle, and it is impossible to stand on the city wall with tens of millions of people.
Logistics, and even replacements, are top priorities.
Just like the warrior who slashes the fierce beast that climbs the city wall with a sharp weapon, it is impossible for them to kill from beginning to end, no matter how strong they are, they are still people, and the iron machine also needs to rest, if it is injured or dead, then someone has to resist it.
And the people standing in the back can directly hit with stones, but not at the foot of the city wall, because there are too many stones, and if you use these stones to pile them at the foot of the city wall, they can be piled up directly to a foot high.
This zhang must not be piled up for the beast, it is not for the beast to build a ladder.
Even if the corpses of the fierce beasts can be piled up when the time comes, then they would rather use the corpses of the fierce beasts to pile up, this kind of seems to be a big advantage, but it is a great advantage to spread to the entire battlefield, and the fierce beasts must not be allowed to take possession.
The battlefield fell into a scorching state for a while, one side defended, one side attacked, all of them were lifeless plays, and I didn't know how many fierce beast corpses were laid outside the city wall, but Shi Hao didn't move.
The more than thirty Cave Heaven Realms of the Hao Yuan Sect did not move, the battlefield below did not belong to them, and the real decision of victory and defeat had to fall on them.
If they win, then the battlefield below will win even if they lose, and if they lose, even if they win, they will be the biggest losers on the battlefield, and they are more likely to be wiped out directly.
This is the law of the high martial arts and even the cultivation world, the high-level combat power determines everything, as for the low-level battlefield, it is not that winning or losing is not important, but this kind of winning or losing does not determine anything.
This is the world of the strong, but also the sorrow of the weak, the background has never been the term of the weak, but the quantity and quality of the high-level combat power to decide.
The current situation is that one Hao Yuan Sect supports the entire Terran Race, and there are no masters of other forces at all, and the high-level combat power of the entire Terran Race is monopolized by Hao Yuan Sect.
I don't know what will happen in the future, but now it is definitely the Hao Yuanzong family that is dominant, facing the demons of the whole world.
It is an exaggeration to say that it is the whole world, but the entire Central Plains human race is indeed fighting against the whole world.
They looked up at the heaven and earth illuminated by the firelight, and could see far, far away, and of course, they also saw the big demon approaching in the distance.
They did not maintain their human form, but turned into a body that was more than a dozen zhang or even a hundred zhang in size and flew from a distance.
Following the siege of the fierce beasts, there were also big demons in the sky coming from all directions, at least hundreds, Jin Dan and Yuanying big demons accounted for most of them, and they were slowly pacing towards the sky above the human city.
It didn't look like a siege city, it was like an outing.
But this is by no means an outing, they are not slow, but deliberate, with the aim of putting pressure on the Terran side with such behavior.
The wisdom of demon beasts is the same as that of humans, far from being comparable to fierce beasts, they know how to suppress people with power, and it is best to crush the human side to collapse.
They did it with their power, the demonic clouds in the air competed with the human race's qi and blood, and their own coercion was unscrupulously emanated, but it did not reach the ground, only the air in the sky was pressed to a viscous level, and ordinary monks would definitely be pressed into breathlessness, and in serious cases, they would even be crushed by the momentum and die.
But none of the people in this sky had this happening, and they were also full of momentum, and the flames all over their bodies exploded by three points again, the swords were unsheathed, and the guns and sticks rang out in unison, and the shot was absolutely earth-shattering.
