Chapter 178: Blockade

One of the things that seems to be fantastic is speed.

Qi Zhen really didn't expect that the scope of the Sea of Skulls was so huge, filling almost all the directions in the line of sight in front of him, leaving no room for the team to break through here.

What I didn't expect was that the laser cannon that was originally used to drastically reduce the number of enemies by surprise not only completed its mission, but also activated all the skeleton soldiers wandering in this mountain forest and slowly pressed towards them.

However, I don't know if it's because their bones are too fragile to withstand high-speed movement, or if these skeletons are not living creatures, so their sluggish minds can't support their behavior.

In short, the speed of this sea of bones is indeed a little slow, about one-third of the pace of a normal person.

Under the attack of Li Qiang, Jiang Yan, and Yu Liang, the speed of their advance was further compressed, and every small step forward of the skeletons in all directions had to leave dozens of broken skeleton fragments in place.

But again, if the Sea of Skeletons only appears on the path directly in front of the team, then as long as Li Qiang is alone, he can completely annihilate these skeleton soldiers, and kill as many as he wants.

Qi Zhen remembered a stationery that she often used in elementary school, and felt that it was the most appropriate way to describe the current situation.

Protractor.

The position where the team was standing was right in the center, and from left to right, bounded by the edge of the barrier behind them, within a fan of 180 degrees, were all secretly numb skeletons.

Li Qiang, Jiang Yan, and Yu Liang each had to control zombies in a wide range of 60 degrees on average.

And because Yu Liang's group lethality is too weak, the area he is responsible for, the enemy's advance speed is much faster than that of the other two directions.

Therefore, Yu Liang's role is more to delay than to kill, Jiang Yan's fireball technique can't keep up with the terrifying number of the Sea of Skulls, and now it is not within the scope of the firestorm's spell, and the main killing work still relies on Li Qiang's M249.

This forces the three to constantly adjust their positions so that all the skeletons are kept at a relatively maximum distance.

It has to be said that their reaction speed is extremely fast, and the three of them have put up the most suitable formation for the current situation in a very short time.

It is worthy of an old man who is extremely skilled in cooperation.

The three of them kept unleashing their killing skills against the sea of skeletons in the distance.

"How do we do it?" Yu Liang shot the head of a skeleton soldier in the distance, and asked without looking back.

Not only did the arrow blow up the head of the first skeleton, but it also struck the head of the skeleton behind it, and then exploded!

With a bang, a clearing exploded in the center of the dense pile of skeletons.

At least a dozen zombies were reduced to pieces in the explosion.

Explode Arrows!

This powerful but expensive arrow was finally pulled out by Yu Liang, which proved that the situation was indeed very serious, forcing Yu Liang to rely on this method to slow down the advance of the skeleton in front of him.

In other words, Li Qiang's M249's strafing, because the surrounding skeletons are too wide, already has some meaning of taking care of one or the other.

Time can heal all the wounds of the soul, but time waits for no one.

So Qi Zhen explained his plan simply and clearly with the fastest speed of speech.

"Before these skeletons can approach us, we need you to fire another charged laser cannon in front of us, and this path is the direction we are leaving."

"But neither early nor late, but at the very moment when they are about to touch us."

"Then we rushed out along the pathway, so that the skeletons behind us could not move forward due to the lack of space, and the skeletons on both sides of the passage had not yet come and gathered, so we had a good chance of running a long distance."

"If we don't run far enough distance to get us out of the encirclement, and the skeletons in the distance in front of us gather again, won't we fall into the enemy's encirclement?" The fireball in Jiang Yan's hand roared and hit the skeleton in the distance, and the explosion also affected the three surrounding zombies and turned into fragments on the ground.

"At this time, it is up to Sister Swallow and your Frost Nova to control these skeletons in place, and then Yu Liang will release the frost trap on the spot to slow down the other party, and we will wait for the cooldown time of the captain's next laser cannon."

"But you have to know that when the time comes, in order to avoid accidental injury, I can't release a firestorm under my feet." Jiang Yan said lightly.

In fact, not only that, whether it is a blizzard or a frost nova, it will also affect the teammates of the team.

The scariest thing is that the Frost Trap also affects the movement speed of the squad!

At that time, the resistance area faced by the team will change from a fan-shaped range of 180 degrees to a range of 360 degrees, with no dead ends!

Of course Qi Zhen thought of this, to be precise, this is what he has been thinking about!

"Believe me, it's a big deal, when the time comes, we'll leave here directly with the Earth Spirit Bead." Qi Zhen said.

Li Qiang's reaction was much faster than Yu Liang and Jiang Yan.

In fact, when Qi Zhen said that Jiang Yan needed to use the Frost Nova to control the surrounding skeletons in place, Li Qiang knew that Qi Zhen must have all the information that the team would face next.

In order to save Yu Liang's bow and arrow and Jiang Yan's magic, under Qi Zhen's signal, the two of them appropriately began to delay the frequency of their attacks.

The degree of this attack speed reduction is determined by Li Qiang, naturally no one knows the cooldown time of the laser cannon better than Li Qiang himself, and when he wants to let the enemy reach him, he can just complete the charge of this blow.

As a result, Skull Sea approached the team a little faster.

But no matter how fast the speed is, it can't change the speed of the opponent's march is only one-third of the pace of a normal person.

In this case, Li Qiang can accurately calculate the comparison of the time when the opponent walks in front of him and the time when he completes the attack.

Completely blocking the opponent's approach, and slowing down the opponent's progress, in both cases, people's mentality will change slightly.

When blocking the enemy with all his might, even if the opponent advances one centimeter, it will create a huge sense of frustration in the human heart.

But postponement is different.

In this case, the mood of the crowd is not as anxious as it was just now.

They need to be anxious about something else that is going to happen in a moment.

Finally, the M249 in Li Qiang's hand had stopped whistling and replaced it with its own laser cannon.

Now the Sea of Skulls is moving faster.

And the laser cannon in Li Qiang's hand has begun to accumulate.

Li Qiang's current approach means that under the current situation that the intensity of the enemy's attack remains unchanged, even without the terrifying killing of Li Qiang's M249, the charged laser cannon will definitely complete the charging activation before the opponent touches the team.

This is tacitly understood by the three of them.

However, Jiang Yan and Yu Liang still appropriately increased their output, firstly, to prevent possible accidents, and secondly, to correct the possible errors in Li Qiang's calculations.

But it's always a bad feeling to see hundreds, thousands, or even thousands, of skeletons with knives slowly approaching you.

So no matter who is in the squad, there is a little anxiety in my heart at this time.

These skeletons couldn't be seen clearly from a distance, but after they walked in, they were much clearer in the eyes of everyone.

These skeletons are all extremely tall, looking like they have to be 1.85 meters if they are not 1.9 meters, and the height of these skeletons is basically about the same, which is quite uniform.

Thinking of this, Qi Zhen's heart suddenly moved.

Presumably, these skeleton soldiers were also a well-trained elite division before their deaths, and combined with what the little boss said before, Qi Zhen also had some guesses about the identity of the prince in his mouth.

Sure enough, the system will not give the team such a chance to cheat and slip, in this case, I am afraid that I will have to call Xiao Ao down in advance.

These thoughts flashed through Qi Zhen's mind in an instant, but she was startled by herself.

Is this the speed of thinking after the upgrade of the writing wheel?

These thoughts that suddenly came into his mind made Qi Zhen not as anxious as he was just now.

These skeletons had already arrived at the location of the boundary monument, and did not mean to stop, but continued to press up towards the team of several people.

Sure enough, this boundary monument did not play any role in stopping after the battle officially began.

Looking at the dense Bose bones around him, as well as the dense terrifying sounds that sounded in his ears, he could even feel the high temperature of the fireball technique after it exploded on the opponent's body.

Qi Zhen knew that the time was almost up.

"Ready!" Li Qiang shouted in a deep voice, the laser cannon in his hand had reached the critical point of excitation.

"Let's go!"

With Li Qiang's shout, a dazzling burst of white light suddenly erupted from the front of the blue-purple barrel that flashed with an electric arc, and shot out into the distance!

The word shot is not very accurate here, because no one can see the trajectory of the light flight, and naturally no one can feel the speed at which the blow is ejected from the muzzle of the gun into the distance.

In fact, this seems to be an extremely long distance, but the distance traveled by a laser with the thickness of a bucket is still too short.

But for Qi Zhen's squad, it's enough!

Not only does the bright light evaporate everything in its path into powder, but the high heat of the bright light released also affects the surrounding skeletons.

For a time, the passage, which was originally only the thickness of a bucket, actually formed enough space for a carriage to pass through in the middle!

Without further ado, the team followed this path and rushed forward!

Before and after are Jiang Yan, Yu Liang, Meng Ran, and Qi Zhen.

Due to the influence of the recoil of the charged laser cannon, at the moment when Qi Zhen entered the passage, Li Qiang also just put away the laser cannon in his hand and walked at the back of the line.
