Chapter 115: Confrontation
Thank you for your generous reward, thank you!!
Night, slowly falling, the sky is dark, as if in response to the edict of tonight's catastrophe, even the dark clouds, are stained with blood, gusts of fishy wind hit; Quiet, extremely quiet, except for the sound of the wind, the heaven and the earth seem to have stopped running, the terrible sound of the wind, the silence around is terrifying.
Liu Ming led the tribe, and at this time he was in full battle, with the bow on the Xuan, the knife out of the sheath, and a solemn atmosphere arose; It seemed that any enemy who stood in their way could tear apart, but none of them felt relaxed, their faces heavy and their blades clenched.
The little fat man swallowed his saliva and was a little uneasy: "Boss, this monster, why hasn't it appeared?" He seems to have big nerves, but in fact he is cautious in his heart, and this time the situation is strange, which makes him deeply uneasy.
Liu Ming didn't answer, one after another military orders were passed down, the figure moved frequently, and he was arranging the back hand; This tribe is too big to gather too many people, and there are too few people to hold the entire area.
So he gathered them all together and set up an area, which was a cellar, and the area was large enough to hold everyone; He led 5,000 elites, scattered and lined up in formation, because this was a defensive battle and had the advantage of terrain.
In this area, some means of defense have been built, and the spatial distance has been widened, which is suitable for long-range attacks, which is arranged according to the tactical arrangement;
Everyone tensed their nerves, but most of the night passed, but there was not the slightest figure, if it weren't for the increasingly solemn atmosphere around them, some people would have begun to relax.
Suddenly, countless terrible howls rang out, and the sound was terrifying, as if in purgatory; At a glance, countless flashing crimson eyeballs appeared, densely packed and innumerable, like waves of the sea, overwhelming.
Liu Ming and a group of high-level generals looked down on the high ground, and they couldn't help but feel numb on their scalps when they saw this.
These monsters that come in waves are no different from ordinary people, and judging by their outfits, they are undoubtedly the people of the nearby tribes; But now they have changed and become extremely terrible, ferocious, bloody, destroying all living things in front of them.
They seem to have changed their physique, growing sharp nails, hideous fangs, and blood-colored eyes that are as scarlet as blood, only killing and destroying, making them demons as if they came from the abyss.
They were very fast, and figures appeared in all directions, screaming violently, and rushing madly towards the place where the population gathered; Some simple trap defenses could not stop them in the slightest.
"First echelon ready!" Liu Ming's face was a little pale, but he quickly calmed down and issued one command after another; It was the first time he had encountered such a large-scale scene, this was a war, facing an unknown monster, and his eyes were full of this kind of monster, even with his will and experience, he was shocked.
The surrounding area was emptied, and when these monsters rushed to the range of a hundred feet, everyone's nerves were tensed.
"Throw!!"
With a loud roar, it was the herald, and the commanding generals of the lower ranks began to give the order to attack.
"Roar!!"
The first echelon is composed of two thousand ordinary elites, mixed with rank refining cultivators, which is very powerful; They prepared for a long time, and the spear in their hands turned into an afterimage, and with a loud roar, with panic and determination, they threw their killing weapons.
"Roar!!"
The spears rained down on the monsters, and with ferocious force they were pinned to the ground, and suddenly those who rushed to the forefront of the monsters fell like wheat harvesters, and were a little angry, and hit the vital point; But more often than not, it's just traumatized.
Even if the spear pinned the monster to the ground and pierced its chest and abdomen, it would open its scarlet eyes, scream and struggle to get up, and continue to roar forward, and the living creatures, especially humans, seemed to exude a deadly attraction.
Some of them had broken hands and feet, and they still had many wounds on their bodies, but they were not aware of it in the slightest.
"Throw!!"
Sure enough, if you don't hit the vital point, you can't cause direct damage, Liu Ming and the others frowned.
There are too many monsters and too dense, and the number of fallen is incalculable, so you don't need to aim, these two thousand ordinary elites began to throw the spears in their hands frantically; They were divided into groups of 100 people each, causing successive killings.
But their number is still too small, these crazy monsters quickly narrowed the distance by dozens of feet, and the bloody breath rose to the sky, which further stimulated the madness of the monsters;
The terrible roar shook the sky and tore the sky, and almost everyone started at this time, and this distance of dozens of zhang was their lifeline, and there was no room for error; It was a tough defensive battle with little to no tactics to speak of.
"Roar!"
A Jindan disciple has reached the late stage, it is a rare master, he infused the aura to make the spear more powerful, and the power was doubled after throwing, like a string of gourds, it penetrated the chests of more than a dozen monsters before it was nailed to the ground, and the tip of the tail trembled violently.
This is the time for them to exert their strength, and they have been fully displayed, these elite disciples have cultivated to a high level, and the lethality caused is extremely great, and for a while, the distance of dozens of zhang has actually stabilized, becoming the death line of the monster.
Although there are a large number of monsters, they themselves are human mutations, thin flesh and blood; Encountering the obstruction of these elite masters, the gap suddenly appeared, if it weren't for Liu Ming's fear of damage to his troops, five thousand elite iron horsemen would sprint a few times, maybe it would be half of Tai.
But according to the description of the tribesmen, as long as he was scratched or bitten by these monsters, a change would occur immediately, and then the cannibalism of his comrades was not what he wanted to see;
At this time, after a battle with these monsters, after the initial fear and shock, the situation gradually stabilized; Some of the characteristics of these monsters have also been revealed.
They are not afraid of death, they don't know how to dodge in the face of the rain of spears, and there are only humans dozens of feet away in their eyes, wanting to rush through and tear them apart; Although the body is stronger and more explosive after the mutation, it is extremely stiff, and without intelligence, otherwise the battle would not be so easy.
"This shouldn't be some servants of the Bat Clan, but there are a lot of similarities, and they should be related!" This is the criminal elder, the strongest person who guards the army; He made it carefully, but shook his head, not sure.
At this moment, an even more terrible cry sounded, resounding through the heavens and the earth; Everyone was shocked, this voice was brutal and extremely intimidating, and an ancient and barbaric aura emanated, which was shocking.
The group of monsters that continued to move forward and one after another, collectively paused, as if they heard the order, they no longer pounced forward, and actually looked up to the sky and howled, and then pounced on the corpses of the same kind that died beside them, and devoured them wildly.
For a while, the scene was extremely bloody, flesh and blood were flying, all the monsters began to bite and devour the corpses of the dead kind, and the sound of "quack" continued to sound, and from time to time they looked up in the direction of everyone.
Liu Ming and the others gasped, their scalps were numb, what kind of monster is this? No wonder there were no corpses left anywhere, it turned out that they were all devoured like this, and what was the matter with that sound?
It seems that there is indeed a mastermind behind the scenes.
"It's like a bat, but it's not like it, it's just a master!" Elder Torture's expression was serious, and he was also shocked.
"Elder, why are these monsters behaving like this?" Liu Ming's eyes were shocked, and he couldn't help but ask.
"It should have a similar effect to the Gu cultivation method!" Elder Xing's tone was heavy, he didn't expect the first battle to be so tricky.
"The method of raising Gu?"
Liu Ming's expression changed greatly, so these monsters can improve their strength by devouring each other? These monsters are extremely ferocious and fearless of death, like tireless killing machines, but because they are ordinary people, their strength growth is not much stronger.
In the face of him leading an elite army, as long as the command is played properly, victory is not difficult; But if the strength of these monsters increases, and they can increase their strength by devouring each other's kind, it will be tricky and terrifying.
Sure enough, after the confrontation, tens of thousands of monster corpses were devoured in a short period of time, and the monsters that ate the corpses of the same kind seemed to have their bodies swelled in a circle, their blood-red eyes became more ferocious, and some even had bone spurs on their bodies, and the burst of power became more powerful.
After eating the corpses of the same kind, when everyone was vomiting and fearing in their hearts, these monsters turned their eyes here again;
"Roar!!"
An even more furious cry came out of their mouths, and once again frantically poured into the crowd, "Quick! Can't let them come! Many lower-level generals shouted and commanded, and the rain of spears in the sky came again.
"Dingding!" The voice sounded from time to time, and everyone couldn't help but gasp, these monsters really became stronger, and a few monsters devoured the corpse the most, and there was a terrible mutation, and their strength increased greatly, and they even learned to dodge, and caught the galloping spear with their bare hands.
Some spears with reduced strength are exhausted just by piercing a monster, and they can no longer be as devastating as they are, and their lethality is drastically reduced, and the number of spears is suddenly rapidly consumed, and the strength of the soldiers is rapidly lost.
The distance is constantly shortening, short-range contact is inevitable, everyone looks ugly, with fear, this is an unknown monster, a terrible mutation; They have seen their ferocity, and they are all frightened.
"Roar!!
A powerful mutant monster suddenly broke away from the group, jumped high, dodged several flying spears in a row, and approached the outermost defenders;
"Quick! Stop it! "Someone roared, and suddenly several attacks concentrated and bombarded it; There were even several people, drawing their swords, and hurriedly stepped forward, ready to fight.
"Roar!" Despite the fact that several attacks came to the body, greatly harming this powerful monster, and the black blood flowing all over its body, it still rushed to the front;
"Drink!!"
Several warriors who had been waiting for a long time slashed mercilessly with swords in their hands; "Whew!" Although the monster is strong, many elites are not weak, and it is strong at this time, and it is immediately injured.
The hard skin and claws actually grabbed the sword, but in the end it was swept by the long knife in the hand of a warrior, cut from the waist, and split into two; Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and lowered their vigilance.
But I didn't think that this monster was not dead, only the upper half of the body was suddenly grabbed by the warrior beside him with both hands, and suddenly, this folk warrior was attacked, and a large piece of flesh was torn off his leg, and he screamed out with a painful expression.
At the same time, the monster was dismembered by a knife, and there was no sound as the head separated.
"Bring that warrior here!" Liu Ming frowned, he didn't expect that someone would make such a low-level mistake, didn't he warn this kind of monster that only the heart and head are the key to make them die.
Liu Ming and the others were paying attention to this place, because this was the first monster to break through the blockade, which attracted everyone's attention; He wanted to verify that it was true that anyone who was scratched and bitten would be changed, as the people said.
"How do you feel at this point?" Liu Ming asked, secretly preparing to prevent emergencies.
"Back to the commander, I feel so painful!" As he spoke, the warrior looked pained, struggled, fell to the ground and rolled over, black blood spread from the injured leg and quickly spread all over his body.
Finally, when the black blood spread to his head and finally disappeared, the warrior suddenly stopped struggling, and when he looked up again, his eyes were blood-red, his breath was furious, and he was full of killing and destruction, no different from those monsters.
He raised his head to the sky and roared, and slammed into the nearest Liu Ming, a few points faster than that.
