Chapter 1866: Battle Death Giant Worm (I.)
The grenadier squad under the 1st Armored Knight Brigade of the Far Eastern Independence was well-trained, and with the help of grenades infused with the "daylight technique", the enemy lurking in the shadows was revealed, and then calmly raised the gun and pulled the trigger.
With a crisp howl of the wind, rows of bullets filled with holy water shot at the undead holding the illuminated in the bright light, bursting with a puddle of rancid blood. The ghouls' screams echoed across the wasteland, and they were all shot in the blink of an eye.
The grenadier squad pauses their firing, loads the Wind Lance with a bayonet coated with magic oil, steps forward to finish off the remaining ghosts, then puts away their rifles and returns to their mechanical armor, accompanying the mobile fortress as it continues its advance into enemy positions.
Under the command of Bloom, the 2nd Armored Knights Brigade of the Far East won the first battle, not only successfully helping the 2nd Division of the Shooting Corps out of its predicament, but also advancing several miles, and the gates of the Dusk Fortress were close at hand.
As the troops advanced, the resistance of the armored knights grew fiercer. The fortifications near the city walls were largely well preserved by artillery fire from the Far East, and the undead soldiers stationed in the trenches were too numerous to count.
On the left side of the armored knight brigade were the Ivan division, and on the right were the divisions of Alexander and Viglaf, which were in the salient of the offensive formation. Since the fort at the head of the city had been destroyed by the Far Eastern Air Force at this time, the ground troops did not have to worry about the artillery bombardment from overhead, and could concentrate on the offensive, constantly breaking through the enemy's defensive line, and squeezing the retreating enemy troops backwards until their backs hit the city wall, and there was no other way to retreat into the city.
In the Far East, the advance of the four armies was very fast, and the most prominent was still the more powerful Armoured Knights Brigade. Bloom watched the battlefield closely, his purpose was not to break through the front line, but to think about whether Krautz would open the city gate to contain the retreating army, if Krautz really did this, then the 2nd Armored Knight Brigade, as the closest force to the city gate on the far east side, would have a chance to chase the rout into the city!
Of course, Bloom also admits that this chance is slim, after all, the Dusk Fortress has a force field enchantment in addition to the city gate, and it is difficult for the armored knights to break through this invisible wall. But what if the force field enchantment is not the enemy? If this were the case, Krautz would have to temporarily close the force field enchantment if he wanted to contain the rout outside the city, which gave Bloom and his second brigade of armored knights an opportunity. As for the risks of breaking into the city, Bloom did not think about it for the time being, and the first priority was to send a letter to the headquarters, asking Marshal Alexei to authorize him to storm the city when the time came.
Bloom picked up the magic guide intercom and was about to report his thoughts to the headquarters, when there was a sudden violent shock from the front position, and the ground quickly heaved, as if a huge grave was rising in front of him, and strong negative energy gushed out from the depths of the disintegrating soil, even if he was in the cabin, through a thick layer of armor, Bloom still felt a biting chill quietly attacking, and couldn't help but shiver, and an alarm suddenly rose in his heart.
At the same time, a warning from the brigade chief of staff, Colonel Kirov, was heard on the airborne magic guide radio, and his voice was urgent and stern:
"Attention the whole brigade! Attention the whole brigade! Something unusual is up ahead! ”
"All the armored knights and their grenadier squads, hold off the advance, defend on the spot, and prepare to meet the strong enemy!"
Boom!
Kirov's voice was still echoing in the cabin, and the high mound of earth in front of him suddenly exploded, and the flying mud and sand obstructed Bloom's vision, and he hurriedly assumed a defensive posture, holding the legendary thunderhammer in a tight position.
When the dust settled, Bloom and his armored knights looked out through the porthole of the mecha force field, and their faces couldn't help but change.
A huge crater appeared in the center of the battlefield, and a huge insect-shaped monster crawled out of the depths of the pit, squirming and standing up its upper body, and its dense eyes on its head shone with a strange and evil red light at the same time, like a living siege tower composed of countless dead people and swords and armor, with a look of ill will, condescending to look at the Far Eastern officers and soldiers opposite.
The size of the mechanical armor was already huge, but compared to the insect-shaped monster in front of it, it was like a young child in front of a giant python, which looked extremely small.
"I swear to Moradin's beard, that big bug across the street is the most disgusting monster I've ever seen in my life!" In his characteristic way, Bloom exclaimed, "Kirov, can you give us more information about that big bug?" ”
The members of the 2nd Armored Knights Brigade, including the Dwarven Pilots and Kitland Grenadiers, were mostly like their brigade commanders, brave rather than knowledgeable. Kirov, the chief of staff, is an alternative to the Armoured Knights, a dwarf but a high-ranking mage, so whenever he encounters a problem that cannot be solved by force alone, Bloom always turns to his highly intelligent cousin and wise man for help.
It's a pity that even Kirov couldn't do anything this time.
"I'm sorry, I can't be sure of the origin of this strange worm, and I don't know what attack methods it is good at, but judging from the results of magic detection, it should be a rare cluster of undead creatures, although it looks like a giant worm, in fact, the body is composed of the corpses and weapons and armor of countless soldiers who died on this battlefield, just like the body of the 'worm walker', although it looks humanoid, it is actually made of hundreds of millions of poisonous insects."
There was a pause for a few seconds in the voice of the onboard magic guide broadcast, and Kirov added:
"Considering that this monster worm bears a subtle resemblance to the wormwalker in terms of appearance and composition, I deduce that it was created by Clutes himself, placed outside the gates of the Dusk Fortress, and specially designed to block our troops who are trying to attack the city, so we had better be vigilant and not go near the monster."
Bloom shrugged, deciding that Kirov was saying this purely conjecture and would not help much in the rest of the battle. However, in fact, Kirov did guess the truth, and the monster standing in front of the armored knights at this moment was none other than Krautz, who used his unique magic power closely related to poisonous insects to create a newly created insect-shaped high-level undead creature, which was named "Battle Death Giant Worm".
The body of the Zombie Worm was composed of countless fallen soldiers and their weapons and equipment, and when it stood tall, it was 60 feet tall and continued to devour the dead around it, causing its body to continue to swell. When this terrifying behemoth squirmed, the grinding sound of swords and armor and the howl of undead souls came out all around it, looking like a violent battlefield that could walk on its own, bringing the most intuitive terrifying impact to people.
