Chapter 532: Shooting ——!
The cold wind rustled the flags, and the loud horns resounded throughout the battlefield.
On the vast desert, the orcs lined up in a neat formation, roaring, and approaching the player's camp.
Players stand on top of the city walls and look at the almost endless army in the distance.
Although many large and small battles have been participated, and the battle of 100,000 is not unexperienced by players, but at this moment, looking at the close military formation of the half-orcs, everyone still can't help but boil their blood.
Of course, the unique vicissitudes of the desert map, coupled with the passionate background music of the battlefield channel, are also one of the reasons for the adrenal rush of players......
Witnessing this situation, many people have an indescribable pride in their hearts.
The so-called epic sense is nothing more than that, right?
"Shhh...... Although the battles these days have made my blood boil, compared to today's scenes, they are all pediatrics! ”
"After all, there are hundreds of thousands of troops...... If nothing else, this is in the ancient world of reality, and it rarely appears, right? ”
"It's a sea of people...... No...... I don't think the word "crowd" can describe this scene......"
"It's exciting...... In this scene, a screenshot is enough for me to brag about it on the Internet! ”
"The game's warfare mechanics...... I'm going to blow it up! ”
Players stand on the city wall with excitement on their faces.
Of course, the movements in their hands did not stop.
Tank warrior players put on heavy armor and stood at the front of the city wall.
Shooters: Players raise their bows and magic guns and aim at the army outside the city.
Mage players and druids begin chanting melodious spells, attaching buffs to the player and the walls.
On the high platform of the earthen wall, the selected players are busy one by one, carrying out the final operations around the remote equipment.
They put the ammunition they had prepared in their trebuchets and ballistas, ready to be projected.
Jiang Shang is also one of them.
Standing on a high platform, he was not very skilled at handling the huge ballista, and poured his magic into the magic stones set in the ballista.
At the same time, while operating, he couldn't help but complain:
"You say I'm a melee druid with a wild specialty, how did I become a crossbowman?"
"Of course, it's because you're a silver spellcaster, and your magic power is high!"
By his side, his good friend Akai replied.
"Yes."
Jiang Shang scratched his head.
This kind of large-scale magic machine is still quite magically expensive to operate.
Although the Marksman player has a variety of skill bonuses that allow them to aim more accurately when attacking, they are not as durable as the casters when controlling the Magic Alter Trebuchet and Ballista.
And because the power of the equipment after the magic reform greatly relied on magic power, their original skills to strengthen the attack effect were also compared.
For this kind of big guy, heaping mana is over, and the higher the mana, the more powerful it is.
So...... As a druid with a silver profession, Jiang Shang was naturally caught as a coolie.
However, although Jiang Shang complained on his lips, he was also happy in his heart.
Because the battles of the past few days have proved that if this kind of large-scale equipment is operated properly, it is definitely a powerful weapon for scoring points!
"By the way, have the [Eagle Eye] skills and [Heart Arrow] skills been exchanged?"
Seeing his friend smirking and touching the ballista, Akai rolled his eyes and asked again.
Jiang Shang nodded:
"Don't worry, such an important skill has already been exchanged, and I don't want to become a little salty meow."
[Eagle Eye] and [Heart Arrow] are both secondary magic spells for the Marksman class, which can improve accuracy and allow players to hit more accurately.
Although Jiang Shang is not a shooter class, since it is magic, he can also exchange it, but it is not as powerful as a shooter player when using it.
"Pay attention to safety for a while, it is estimated that after the fight, our side will definitely be set on fire."
Looking at the half-orc army that was getting closer and closer in the distance, Jiang Shang said.
"Don't worry! I've put on the thickest armor, but be careful, don't get too excited and get killed by arrows. ”
Akai flashed his shiny breastplate, laughed twice, and replied.
Jiang Shang nodded and moved his gaze to the outside of the city wall again.
The rhythmic and loud footsteps were heard, and the orc army was closer.
Through his Eagle Eye skills, he was able to see the hideous heads and sharp fangs of the orc warriors in the front row.
Unlike the orcs they fought before, these orcs are significantly better equipped, especially the ones at the front.
They are like tank warrior players, wearing heavy armor and imposing style.
And after these heavily armored half-orc warriors, the main army is also armored and fully armed, which is not at the same level as the under-equipped motley army in the half-orc tribe.
There is no doubt that this is the true elite force of the orcs.
However, Jiang Shang's gaze quickly skimmed over these half-orcs and focused on the huge giant beast surrounded by the half-orcs.
Beamon Behemoth.
These giant beasts resembling hippos, born with fangs and lion's tails, are extremely tall, with a height of ten meters and a number of more than a hundred.
They were pushing siege towers, wearing silver shining armor, which at first glance looked like brand new custom armor, suspected to be the work of the Sauron Chamber of Commerce.
Not only that, but each of them has the strength of silver, and the strength is strong.
Jiang Shang's eyes lit slightly.
These big guys...... is the biggest threat to players in this battle.
Due to time constraints, the players did not build the walls above 10 meters.
It's not going to be easy to get these guys close to the walls......
Not only that, but these guys are incredibly powerful, and each behemoth carries spears behind it that can be projected, and those spears are almost a deadly threat to the player's dragon companions!
With these behemoths in place, at least players won't be able to use the Dragon Bomber safely.
However, players are not without countermeasures.
The ballista placed on the high platform is mainly targeted by these giant beasts!
Thinking of this, Jiang Shang controlled the ballista and aimed at one of them.
Closer, orcs closer.
Gradually, the half-orcs at the forefront had entered within five hundred meters of the city.
This is already the effective range of catapults and ballistas.
The players held their breath, their expressions even more excited, and their hands holding their weapons trembled slightly.
At this moment, the background music on the battlefield suddenly changed......
The passionate BGM was instantly transformed into a fierce drum beat and horn, like an army fighting on the battlefield.
At the same time, the almost roaring voice of the commander-in-chief Li Mu also resounded on the entire battlefield channel:
"Trebuchet—put!"
At his command, they were placed on a high platform of earthen walls, and a series of trebuchets in the camp tower were projected......
The ammunition dragging the magic flame was like a meteorite, and it slammed into the battlefield with a black tail smoke that swept through the blue sky!
A loud rumbling noise came, and each loud noise meant that an "ammunition" landed and exploded.
Some fell in front of the orcs, some in the ranks of the orcs.
Flames and hot iron and stone shot out, and huge pits of black smoke were smashed into the ground.
The affected orcs let out a series of screams......
They were either reduced to ashes in the sound of explosions and flames, or barely survived but were a blur of flesh and blood.
Almost instantly, there was a commotion in the formation of the half-orcs.
The terrifying lethality of this large device like magic is often the most terrifying.
However, the orc's panic lasted only a few seconds.
The sound of trumpets came from behind the orcs, and they gradually regained their composure.
Then, continue to approach the player's "fortress" at the same pace.
On the player's side, they continue to use the trebuchet to throw magic stone ammunition, and from a distance, it looks like a meteorite rain from the sky, which is extremely spectacular.
However, Jiang Shang did not act.
All the ballistas did not move.
Unlike trebuchets, ballistas rely on great force and magic to penetrate.
Although the Beamon Behemoths have entered the effective range, considering the heavy armor and fat on their bodies, this distance is not enough!
We'll have to wait a little longer......
Soon...... The orcs came within three hundred meters.
This is already the effective range of bows and arrows and magic guns.
Another loud horn came from the orc formation, and then the archers in the orc army raised their longbows and lit their arrows.
Noticing the movements of the orcs, Li Mu's roar also sounded on the battlefield channel again:
"Priest, open the defense! Shooter ready! ”
With his command, the priest players who had already prepared stood in their fixed positions on the six-pointed star earth wall and chanted one after another.
And as they chanted, a golden pillar of light rose from the statue of the goddess enshrined in the center of the camp, turning into a translucent energy shield and clasping above the camp.
Divine Defense Barrier.
However, if you look closely, you will find that this magic defense barrier is not perfect, and the color is far lighter than that of Sandstorm City......
This is also normal, after all, it was improvised by the players.
"Whew-"
The sound of a horn came from the direction of the orcs again.
At the sound of an order, their archers fired arrows in the direction of the player's fortress.
No less than 50,000 orc archers fired a volley, and countless arrows suddenly turned into a dense rain of arrows, shooting into the player's camp with flames!
With the rain of arrows falling, the divine defense barrier suddenly flickered into waves......
And when they hit the divine defense barrier, most of the arrows were extinguished under the brilliance of the divine art, and even the kinetic energy was almost exhausted, and only a few arrows broke through the barrier and entered the camp.
Suddenly, some tents were set on fire.
There was a faint commotion in the camp.
At the same time, Li Mu also roared on the battlefield channel:
"Mage, hurry up and put out the fire! Attention shooters – shoot! ”
As soon as the sound fell, the shooter players also shot their bows and arrows, pulling the trigger of the magic gun.
With a roar, the arrows and elemental bullets that shimmered with the brilliance of the skill also turned into a dazzling rain of light.
The former rained down on the orcs, while the latter poured down the earthen walls in direct streams of light......
"Whew-"
The sound of trumpets was heard again in the army of orcs.
The soldiers raised their round shields and held them above their heads.
The players rained down with a rain of arrows and elemental bullets, and a series of crackling sounds were heard.
The number of shooter players is close to forty thousand, and the average strength is also significantly higher than that of orcs.
Even if the orcs were prepared, there would still be a lot of arrows and elemental bullets to penetrate the defense.
On the battlefield, there were screams again, and orcs fell everywhere.
Even the entire formation was faintly scattered for a moment.
Of course, it was only for a moment.
There are too many orcs.
And this time, it is also an absolute elite.
With the long sound of the horns, the orcs quickened their pace and rushed towards the player's fortress.
Shooters on both sides are still throwing.
The gorgeous rain of arrows intertwined is incomparably spectacular.
And as the main force of the siege, the Beamon Behemoths also entered within one hundred and fifty meters of the earthen wall!
Looking at the huge body of the Beamon giant beast, Jiang Shang held his breath.
He felt his heart pound and the blood boiling all over his body.
Immediately afterward, the Behemoths drew their spears behind them and aimed them at the earthen wall.
More precisely, it is aimed at the high platforms on the earthen wall.
The next second, they threw their spears.
The spear is extremely fast, and it shoots into the player's position in an instant.
However, they were stabbed into an invisible barrier, and they could no longer move forward half a step, and eventually fell to the ground......
And if you look at it from the sky, you will see that the six-pointed star earth wall built by the players is exuding a radiant light, and a translucent magic shield appears on each high platform.
Five-ring magic [Wind Shield].
At the beginning of the battle, players took into account the terrifying throwing abilities of the Beamon Behemoths in the Orc troops, thus improving their defenses.
The earthen walls of the player's camp were not built in the shape of a six-pointed star for the sake of beauty.
In fact, this is a huge magic array designed by the aunt bird, and its function is to generate a defensive magic on each high platform of the earthen wall, which is used to protect the precious large equipment.
The effect is still good.
Of course, the magic stones consumed are also terrifying.
And immediately afterwards, Li Mu's voice also sounded on the battlefield channel again:
"Giant crossbow! Target Beamon Behemoth! Shoot! ”
Jiang Shang, who had already prepared, looked at him.
He activated the magic that he had infused into the ballista.
Brilliant light flowed through the magical lines on the bed's crossbow, eventually lighting up the giant spear that had carved the circle.
Then, Jiang Shang pulled the trigger of the ballista.
"Come on...... Babes! ”
He licked the corner of his mouth.
With the sound of the howling wind, the ballista shot spears up to five meters long.
The spear shimmered with skill and shot at the Beamon Behemoth he was targeting.
There were more than twenty ballistae on the side of the earthen wall facing the orc army.
More than two dozen terrifying spears were fired, and a small half of them finally hit the target.
With the poignant participation, four or five of the Beamon giant beasts that were hit were suddenly hit hard, and they saw that they had completely lost their combat effectiveness.
However, the Beamon Behemoth, who had narrowly escaped the catastrophe, roared angrily and quickened its pace.
They pushed siege towers and braved the rain of arrows from the players to get under the walls.
Siege towers in place.
The orc soldiers roared and entered the siege tower, preparing to climb the walls.
Melee...... It's time to get started.
However, Li Mu's voice sounded again on the battlefield channel:
"Attention Mage Regiment!"
"Unleash - Burst Magic!"
In the next second, terrifying magic fluctuations began to converge under the city......
"Boom ......"
With the laughter of the mage players, the city was plunged into a sea of fire.
