Chapter 388: Crossing the Border
ββThe land on the border of Qin and Chu trembled, and the sand and dust dispersed and flew. The hundred-meter-tall obsidian wall made a rumbling sound as it withstood the brutal impact of the steel-horned rhinoceros.
Zhong Liwu and the soldiers of the city stood at the head of the city, feeling the shallow shock coming from the soles of their feet, and looked solemnly at the three large demonic beasts with steel horns and giant rhinos standing under the defensive giant wall. The Steel-horned Giant Rhino is a very rare high-level magical beast, ten meters tall and weighing dozens of tons, it looks like a huge piece of granite from a distance, but their heads are born with giant horns made of steel, with the terrifying brute force of their bodies combined with the high hardness of their head horns, their impact is almost indestructible.
And at this moment, they are roaring and charging against the defensive giant wall on the border line, although they still can't break through the thick obsidian giant wall, but the savage collision again and again also makes the defenders of the city feel the tremor of the giant wall, and has a huge psychological pressure on the humans who hold the front.
However, the empty deserted ancient border line was chaotic, thousands of wild monsters and monsters were roaring, and the sky was full of thirteen primordial defense towers' roaring concentrated cannons, and the ground was rushing for a while, bombing piece by piece, and the crazy war on the border line did not stop for a moment. "Attack! Don't stop," Zhong Liwu stood at the head of the city and shouted to all the soldiers defending the city, "Don't be afraid, these animals can't break through the city walls!" As long as we hold the border, the reinforcements of the King of Han will soon arrive! "Kill! Kill! The soldiers were awakened by Zhong Liwu's words, and while roaring and cheering themselves, they picked up their crossbow arrows and shot wildly at the wild monsters in the city.
As a result, a rain of steel arrows flew up all over the sky, scattering on the battlefield in a surging manner, causing a wide range of damage suppression to the wild-monsters and monsters that were frantically rushing. But the war has risen to a white-hot stage, countless wild monsters and monsters have gathered and poured out from the ancient land, among which there are quite high-level wild monsters and monsters, and the high-level monsters have grown to a huge difference, in addition to the general strengthening of combat power, they are also likely to have a variety of strange special powers, and these forces will have a very terrible effect on the battlefield of the border line.
For example, the three-headed steel-horned giant rhinoceros can collide with the 100-meter-high obsidian giant wall with a weight of tens of tons and the head horn of stainless steel, and even if it can't break through the giant wall, it can shake the defenders in the city. But in addition to it, a variety of high-level demonic beasts also appeared on the battlefield - the Red Flame Salamander crawled on the dusty ground, spewing flaming beams of fire at the defenders at the head of the city; The electric unicorn rushed to dodge the rain of arrows falling from the sky, and at the same time raised the white horn on its head and shot dazzling white lightning at the city; Han Bingzhi is independent in a hidden corner of the city, using his petite body to exude a steady stream of ice energy, trying to freeze the original defense tower embedded in the wall; Although the shadow monkeys are weak in combat, they can sneak into the shadows, so they sneak through the shadows of other monsters, pass through the battle-torn battlefield safely, and then sneak into the shadows of the obsidian wall, silently crossing the defense line; The Dark Giant Palate Frog is probably the most arrogant on the battlefield, it sits calmly on the battlefield, opens its giant mouth that is four-fifths of its body, swallows the terrifying shaped cannon fired from the air in one gulp, and after subtle digestion, it can spray the shaped cannon onto the obsidian giant wall, using the power of the defense tower to hit the city wall.
"Hold on, in short, hold on!" Zhong Liwu looked at the chaotic battlefield below with a solemn expression, and said to himself over and over again in his heart. The war on the border line has reached such a stage, it is no longer for them to grasp the situation, their defenders have suffered a lot of casualties, even if they are guarding the head of the city at a height of 100 meters, they have been injured by various surprise attacks by wild monsters and monsters.
Now the military strength of the border city is empty, and the thirteen original defense towers also have functional limits, and they can only shoot one cannon almost every ten seconds, but the battlefield under the city wall is a steady stream of wild monsters and monsters, coupled with the strange abilities of various high-level monsters, it has caused great pressure on the human side.
Although the obsidian wall is impregnable, no one has absolute confidence that it will always stand, and who knows what terrifying monsters will appear on the battlefield? Therefore, Zhong Liwu could only hold on, and with the greatest strength and faith, he took the few soldiers who defended the city to support the defense line, praying for the arrival of reinforcements from King Han as soon as possible. But on the battlefield at this time, the number of wild monsters and monsters has only increased, and their roars and attacks have become more and more crazy, and the eyes of each pair of beasts are emitting a scarlet luster, as if they are enchanted. Immediately afterward, the four-winged bat demon and the bladed feather iron eagle appeared on the battlefield with the ability to fly, they crossed the herd of beasts, let out a long roar, and then flapped their wings and attacked the city, trying to fly directly over the hundred-meter-high obsidian giant wall and invade human territory.
"Shoot the arrows! Shoot the arrows! Shoot them all down, and don't let these beasts fly over the walls! Seeing a large number of flying demonic beasts attacking, Zhong Liwu immediately shouted nervously. If you just let those flying monsters cross the city, the consequences will be unimaginable. So all the soldiers defending the city aimed the crossbow arrows in their hands at the monsters flying towards the city, and under Zhong Liyi's order, the mechanism opened and closed, and hundreds of sharp arrows flew out together, hitting the flying beasts like a surging wave.
Under the impact of a rain of arrows, most of the flying demonic beasts fell from the sky and fell into the smoke of the earth's artillery fire, but there were still dozens of remaining demonic beasts that continued to fly towards the city after avoiding the rain of arrows, and increased their flight speed. "Shoot the arrows! Keep firing the arrows! Knock them all down! Zhong Liwu continued to shout, and the soldiers continued to raise their crossbows and fire arrows. The rain of arrows shot out in bursts, knocking down the demonic beasts flying in the air, preventing any of them from having a chance to force the city. However, just as the defenders of the city were focusing on those flying demonic beasts flying through the sky, the battlefield on the ground was rapidly undergoing drastic changes.
The swarm of electric unicorns galloping in the sand and dust condensed the strength of dozens of companions, and shot out a powerful white lightning bolt, which shot straight into the city head above the giant wall, killing and injuring dozens of defenders in an instant. On the other side, Han Bingzhi, who had been standing quietly in the corner of the battlefield, continued to release cold ice energy, and actually froze the internal wiring of the original defense tower through the huge wall, causing one defense tower to enter a state of shock. And almost at the same time, the dark giant palatin frog that had been sitting on the battlefield and had been devouring the shaped cannon and spitting it out, it finally hit the shaped energy center at the top of the tower, directly destroying a primitive defense tower. In just three minutes, two defense towers were destroyed, and only eleven of the thirteen original defense towers remained.
In an instant, the situation on the battlefield changed immediately - since the outbreak of the war on the border line of the wild monsters and monsters, it has been the thirteen original defense towers that have played a major role in suppressing and destroying the wild monster army, in addition to the solid defense of the obsidian giant wall, they have played the most important role in the defense of the border line, but the original defense towers that have barely maintained the battlefield situation in an overloaded state have been broken twice in a short period of time, which directly caused the attack output of the defending side to drop by one level, on the contrary, It also gave the wild monsters and monsters the opportunity to take advantage of the situation and attack on the ground. As a result, the morale of the wild monsters and monsters was greatly boosted, and the situation on the battlefield gradually deteriorated.
