Chapter 289: Soft-Footed Shrimp and Bombardment!

"Smack... Bang..."

In the rhythmic beat, the "Giant Hammer Mantis Shrimp" has moved slowly to the other side of the fortress, raised its upper body high again, and swung its "megaton punch" in a ten-thousandth of a second!

Boomβ€”β€”!!!

In the violent friction, the air was ionized and the dazzling flames exploded, and the masonry, iron cannons, and twisted human bodies rose into the air again.

The second Boss Fort was destroyed!

However, the officers and soldiers stationed on this convex fort kept their determination and oath to fight to the death.

Until the last moment before the "Mantis Shrimp" attack arrived, they were still pouring scorching iron cannonballs and even lead bullets from ordinary muskets on this sea monster!

Because of their sacrifice and dedication, they finally won a temporary respite for the remaining comrades.

The chitiny carapace on his body was finally damaged to the point that even the sea monster had to pay attention to it, and he took countless steps and slowly moved away from the fortress.

However, it is only temporarily away from the "middle embankment" where the 8-pounder cannon remains, and it is still 108,000 miles away from completely returning to the water.

And because of the lack of two convex forts, the "Fortress" has a blind spot in its originally perfect firepower network, allowing the sea monster to be repaired calmly.

Obviously, when it uses the sea monster's powerful recovery ability to regroup, it means the end of the fortress!

However, at this time, the garrisons on the fortress had already made a plan.

A squad of officers and men who had been prepared for a long time was ready to go.

Headed by an adjutant who lost an arm in the attack of the "Mantis Shrimp", each with two heavy alchemy bombs hanging from their waists, a tragic atmosphere permeated the walls, it was clear that this was a death squad!

The carapace on the back of the "Giant Hammer Mantis Shrimp" is extremely hard, and even a salvo from a large-caliber artillery is difficult to kill in a short time, but the abdomen that is not covered by heavy armor may not.

They are ready to attack from the belly of this "mantis shrimp" to create an opportunity for their own Major General Coverdale, who is also not in good form at this time!

"Your Excellency, please rest assured, we promise to complete the mission!"

The adjutant saluted the general one last time with the remaining hand and solemnly promised.

The major general, whose mind was as hard as iron, opened his mouth at this time, but he couldn't spit out a word for a long time.

Although today's battle was not the most disparity between the forces of the enemy and the enemy that the general had experienced in his life, it was the one that made him feel the most aggrieved.

The "Water Cannon Cetacean" can only be passively defended and difficult to counterattack, while the "Giant Hammer Mantis Shrimp" can fight and resist invulnerability. There are also "ironclad seahorses" and "ghost shrimps" that have not participated in the siege on the periphery.

Now it is even more necessary to send close subordinates who have worked together for many years to die! Even the major generals who have been on the battlefield for a long time feel deep powerlessness...

Finally, he took a deep look at his adjutant, and his gaze moved back as if he remembered all the members of the death squad who were missing arms and eyes, and the general, who knew that time was pressing, finally squeezed out a word from between his teeth: "Go!"

The gate on the ground floor had long since collapsed when the tsunami hit, and their only option now was the city walls.

The rope ladder was quickly lowered.

Whoa...

When the adjutant took the lead to go down to the fort, he was also noticed by the "water cannon whale" in the distance, and several water cannon shells fell on the body of the stone fort, causing the extremely injured "fort" to tremble continuously.

Not to mention the "water cannon shells" with a not too fast rate of fire, at this time, even a knife in the sky cannot stop the footsteps of the "death squad".

Climbing the breastwork at the edge of the "middle embankment", the adjutant was just about to slide down the rope ladder, but out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a group of snow-white seabirds flying in the distant sky.

The seabirds themselves are not strange, it is strange that they hold something in their claws and are lined up in a neat formation, like a well-trained air force.

Fluttering Ridge –

At the same time, a pintail swift had already taken the lead over the fortress and flew straight to the side of the major general standing on the "middle embankment".

A clear message had been thrown directly into the general's heart.

"Your Excellency General, I'm Aven, my seabirds are about to launch an air attack on the sea monsters, please command the soldiers to cooperate with the attack. ”

After being slightly stunned, the general immediately reacted, and immediately reached out and dragged the adjutant who had come to the wall back.

"Quick, quick, quick! Gather all our cannons and moving musketeers on the "middle embankment". ”

The Kingdom of Taylor has the "Jewel" of the Solomon family in front, and of course the high-level is not unfamiliar with the methods of wizards, and when he received the news of the arrival of Aiwen's reinforcements, Coverdale instantly lifted his spirits.

The surviving garrison sprang into action, the 8-pounder guns were only a little more than a ton, and in a short time, the remaining six 8-pounder guns were quickly transferred to the middle embankment facing the "Giant Hammer Mantis Shrimp".

Just set up.

The White Seagull Air Force formation, which had already flown over the "ironclad train" and numbered twenty, began to swoop and throw the [Powerful Voodoo Elixir] in its claws.

Accustomed to this kind of work, they already have an extremely high hit rate, even if it is a sea monster in constant motion.

In particular, the two powerful hammer-shaped "skimming limbs" of the "Giant Hammer Mantis Shrimp" are the key targets of the seagulls!

Although the "Mantis Shrimp", which was only a few months old, had amazing combat intelligence, it was far from experienced, and it didn't even bother to drive away these little things flying overhead.

So, it paid the price for its carelessness.

Bang bang! bang bang....

The dark green viscous mist exploded one after another in its upper body, enveloping it in clusters, even the wind on the seashore.

Zila... Zila... Zila...

Amid the corrosive sound of the carapace melting, the "mantis shrimp" finally realized that something was wrong and began to roll quickly on the ground, trying in vain to get rid of this terrible poisonous mist.

Boom! Boom!

In an instant, the mountains shook like a train derailed!

As a matter of fact.

Extraordinary strength is also based on the physical body of matter, and no matter how big the body becomes, the chitin shell composition of shrimp and crabs is similar.

Chitin, protein, and calcium salts each account for about one-third, which may vary depending on the living environment and species, but these three main substances do not change.

In an extremely unstable state of rampage, the [Powerful Voodoo Elixir] that can melt even a glass bottle is a thousand times stronger than an artillery shell against the chitin biological armor on the "Mantis Shrimp".

It can be said that one thing descends one thing.

If the poisonous mist is given enough time, there may be nothing left in the carapace of this formidable sea monster except a few chitin.

This is also the benefit of the wizarding profession, as long as there is sufficient preparation and calmly design a response plan, wizards have almost no shortcomings.

It is not uncommon for a second-order official wizard to die a third-order professional.

After a minute of blind struggle, the "mantis shrimp", which had been out of the blind spot of shooting, soon turned into a soft-footed shrimp.

Seeing the opportunity, the major general immediately ordered: "Fire!"

Boom, boom, boom...

Artillery fired in unison.

Even if it was only an 8-pounder cannon this time, it achieved an effect far exceeding that of a 32-pounder cannon.

The biological armor, which was no worse than the iron armor, was now much thinner and more brittle, and even a shell weighing only a quarter of its original weight could easily crack a crack on its body, and even lead bullets were no longer ineffective.

However, even in the face of the double blow of poisonous fog and artillery fire, the "Giant Hammer Mantis Shrimp" has no intention of returning to the sea to take refuge.

Instead, he changed his cautious style at the beginning, and rushed towards the fortress that was closer to him than the sea with all his might!

Bang bang ...

Because of the ablation of calcium salts and the denaturation and loosening of proteins, the violently vibrating nail leaves rubbed against each other with a loud noise, and the nearly 100-meter-long "Giant Hammer Mantis Shrimp" was like a runaway train, rushing from the rammed earth slope of the first layer to the foot of the third convex fort.

Raise your upper body and unleash your invincible hammer blow to the middle of the Boss Castle again!

And then.

Click-

The strange movement made it seem to be a little stunned.

When I looked down, all I could see was a severed limb with a foul stench of green liquor!

The effect of force is mutual, and the powerful "limbs" that are attacked by the focus have long lost the indestructible hardness they had at the beginning.

With the huge force emitted by the sea monster's body, it collided with the rock castle body, and the crispy biscuit-like "heavy hammer" was directly shattered?

However, not waiting for it to react.

On the nearby Boss Fort, two 32-pounder guns were already firing at its head.

Boom β€”β€”!

Boom β€”β€”!

The carapace, which had been almost completely destroyed, could no longer provide it with effective protection, and two 32-pound iron cannonballs easily burrowed into its head, tumbling and slicing its central nervous system.

Bang!

This terrifying beast, which was once unstoppable, slammed to the ground.

The second large species, confirmed kill!

At the same time, nineteen large seabirds, larger and heavier, also carried alchemy bombs to the sky above the head of the "water cannon humpback whale".

An opponent who is out of reach for the bastion is nothing to the seabirds who have air supremacy.

Just to guard against its "shelling", the "Black Feather Frigate Bird" and the "Great Albatross" dropped alchemy bombs in their claws in the air a few hundred meters directly above the sea monster.

With the current intelligence of the seabirds, they have been trained enough to use this easy-to-use alchemy weapon.

Subsequently.

Rumbleβ€”β€”!!!!

At this moment, the fire was raging and the waves were surging.

The sea seems to have been overturned!
