Chapter 117: Bone Demon Position
I don't know if it's good or bad, these skeleton archers are not like swords or spearmen, they don't blindly attack in advance, but when someone approaches, they will pay attention to retreat and return fire, but before the huge shield advances, these counterattacks are useless, and their retreat only creates a gap in the attack.
After the first archers were knocked over by their shields, all the people who were still fighting seized the gap of these indiscriminate archers and rushed forward to attack, although the archers behaved a little more complicated than the sword and spearmen, but it was only a simple matter of people getting close and retreating.
Seeing this situation, the Taoist priests immediately commanded the divine beasts and skeletons to penetrate between them, and as the divine beasts and skeletons got close, their entire formation was completely disrupted, and then rushed out behind the shields, and the warriors who had been suppressed for a long time instantly cut down these skeleton archers who now seemed to only retreat.
After solving the enemy in that direction, He Ming jumped over with another direction where the cold arrow flew from, and then eliminated a lurking archer, and then carefully felt it according to the cover, and determined that except for those enemies in front of the shield, the other ambushers had been cleared.
He began to prepare to rush to the front line, but found that from time to time there would be stray arrows flying by, and he could not pass until the frontal battlefield had almost wiped out the archers in the column, and then he hurried to the side of the crowd.
By this time the fighting was over, and people were already beginning to examine the wounded. The attack in the darkness came so suddenly that more than a dozen people were hit by arrows, but fortunately only two were seriously wounded, the bow and arrow pierced the internal organs, and the rest were lightly wounded.
Most of the people who came to the Bairi Gate were elite Taoist priests, and the healing technique was used in time, so that there was no attrition in this encounter, but the danger that would be encountered on the road ahead was conceivable.
While the Taoist priests were scrambling to deal with the injuries of the wounded, Ruyue Shadow finally returned to the crowd, although he had been hit by several arrows before, but he was not injured at all, and those arrows did not hurt his body at all.
Only then did He Ming discover that his seemingly bulky, dark green God of War armor was assembled in a very ingenious structure, which could greatly alleviate all kinds of blows, and the craftsmanship created was exquisite and wonderful, which was really breathtaking, and it was actually a rare forging work.
If he can be stronger and wear this suit of armor without being affected by the battle, then he can play a much greater role, and he can't help but feel surging and his thoughts fluctuate for a while.
As soon as Moon Shadow came up, she asked, "How is the situation?" And what are the characteristics of these skeleton archers? ”
Qing Shui replied first: "Thirteen people were injured, but fortunately two were seriously injured. We used healing techniques in time, and the lightly wounded were able to regain their combat effectiveness, and the seriously injured were able to regain their mobility, but they could not continue to fight. ”
Ye Zilan said: "The vision of these skeleton archers is not affected by light, and they can aim at their targets in the dark. They had quivers, but they were empty. As can be seen from the remaining arrows on the shields, these are made of bones that grow on their bodies, and they will not lack arrows in a short battle. ”
Ru Yueying said: "It's also a loss that it appears in batches, but if you continue to go deeper, there will be a combined lineup nine times out of ten, such a long range, a group of archers and a few sword soldiers, we are afraid that we will be in trouble." ”
At this time, Sophia, who was accompanying her, asked: "It's really too dangerous, it's not that I'm wearing heart guards, I'm done playing just now." Listening to the echo just now, this hole is extremely empty and endless, should we go back and move some reinforcements first and then go deeper? ”
Ye Zilan shook his head: "You think too much, the elite of these hundred people is already the largest force that can be sent in the village now, and we will give up at most on this expedition, because it is impossible to organize more reinforcements in the short term." ”
Qing Shui stepped forward at this time and said to Sophia seriously: "For the sake of our people's affairs, the friends of Cangyue Village have helped each other, which is really grateful. It's just that there are many dangers ahead, so for the sake of safety, you might as well go back first and leave us a few shields. ”
Sophia's face turned red: "What do you mean by that?" Are our guards greedy for life and afraid of death? With so many strange and elite monsters entrenched on this island, will they be able to nest like this forever? More than anyone else, we need to destroy them! ”
Then she turned to the other guards and asked, "Do you think we should move on and destroy these monsters, or should we just go back and run for our lives?" ”
An angry and excited female voice rang out: "We will not run for our lives!" With these monsters on Cangyue Island for a day, we can't live in peace! ”
Ye Zilan came up and said: "There is no need to say more about this way, but the enemy encountered this time is really not the usual ordinary stragglers, everyone is to maintain the formation." The second is to be more careful, encounter spearmen and sword soldiers alone, do not use the shield hard top, let the long-range elimination, if you encounter archers, you have to rely on the shield. If you don't have any other opinions, let's go! ”
The people present were all solemn, and they had no other opinions, just waiting for Ye Zilan to order.
Ye Zilan summoned several shining balls of light, floating in all directions of their hundred paces away, illuminating the position in the distance, and the skeletal archers with super strong Cheng Cheng in this range could not attack them first, and the sharp-eyed archers in the assigned team stared at the distance and gave the order to set off.
After a few frightening battles, this team, even the newly added Bairimen people, have the same tacit understanding as the most well-trained soldiers, after all, they are also the most elite warriors on the mainland.
When encountering swordsmen and spearmen, they attract their attention and then use magic to destroy them, and when they encounter archers, they advance with shield soldiers in the front row, so that melee combat can find a chance to get close, and they become knife targets that can only escape, and after advancing for a certain distance, they do not have much risk, and they can easily kill at least a hundred skeleton monsters.
As we continued to advance, the ordinary cave, which had been completely naturally formed, suddenly turned into a stone floor that seemed to have been hewn by hand, and in front of it were all kinds of well-built fortifications, a wide stone wall blocked the view, and looking through a gap, there were all kinds of protective bunkers and soldiers' camps.
Obviously, this is a camp built by skeletons, and although it covers a small area, the number of these unreplenished and tireless enemies stationed here is really incalculable.
Fortunately, although this place is modeled after the city of the world, there is no key moat and fortifications, otherwise these people will basically not be able to get by, so they can only go back to their homes first.
Moon Shadow said to them solemnly: "These traces are basically certain, this is not just a product of the dark world, it is difficult to say if there are any humans who have assimilated into the darkness and can behave so regularly, I am sure, this person is not simple." ”
Qing Shui asked simply: "How sure are you of this conclusion?" ”
Moon Shadow replied, "Ten points!" ”
Qing Shui said: "Well, by quietly cultivating such an elite and absolutely loyal army from this place, who has been lurking for countless years, who will believe that he has good intentions?" I think it's incumbent on me to stop him, but the problem is that we seem to be at a disadvantage everywhere right now. ”
Ye Zilan said: "The culprit who caused all this is not here, those devoured ghosts told me that the existence of this dark world has been distorted, lurking in the deepest part of here, and we have only walked about a fifth of the way here."
"He can only give simple and direct orders to the farthest skeletons there, these skeletons do not have the ability to adapt, I believe he is very confident in the defenses set up here, this is our only chance."
Although most of the people present saw that the Soul Lust Staff was devouring those souls, and because of the battle, no one had much to do, but when this passage came out, it really made everyone creepy.
He Ming said: "If that's the case, then our opponent is just a group of trap-like and brainless enemies, and the problem shouldn't be big." I wonder, will these skulls that have been killed alarm the people behind them? If he suddenly changes his command, such as having the whole army of skeletons assault us, then the problem is serious. ”
Ye Zilan said: "The souls say that the dead ghosts will return to his hands and be reorganized, and they will never stop. But for now, the slain spirits have been consumed by the Soul Lust Staff, and they are not sure if they will alarm the people behind it. ”
He Ming said: "No matter what the result is, every time we talk about it, the danger may deepen, so let's act now!" ”
Ruyue Ying said: "I agree with He Ming on this point, but this barracks, you have also seen, the stone building, plus the undead who do not need supplies, it is not possible to set fire, and the surprise attack is ineffective, do we have to rely on these people to force a breakthrough?" ”
He Ming said: "It's not that troublesome, I noticed that so far, the spearman is the spearman, the knife soldier is the knife soldier, these monsters are all acting in groups, I once attracted the knife soldier in a range, and the spearman who was not far away did not react, I went to pull the monster in the way over and kill it, and it would be fine." ”
Ruyue Shadow said: "That's right, if it's you, if there is an accident, we will have time to escape." The gap in the wall is just enough for cover, go ahead, watch out for the archers. ”
When the words fell, He Ming had already turned into a green shadow, and under the illumination of Ye Zilan's high-flying fireball, he rushed into the fortification, at this time his blood was boiling, and the attention of the entire army was focused on him alone, making him instantly burst out at a speed that he couldn't usually reach!
After entering the camp, I found that there were really swords and guns inside, and there were groups of bows and arrows. Before the skeletons could react, he had already passed through several teams, each lined up with dozens of skeletons.
