Chapter 256: The Real Beast Tide
Above the head of the city at the pass, Li Mu patrolled above the city as usual. Stop and look at the grassland in the distance. Li Mu's expression was very serious, his brows were even tighter, and he sighed from time to time.
Above the pass, it has not been attacked by alien beasts for several days, and even if there is, it is scattered and not on a large scale. After fighting with the strange beasts several times, Li Mu also learned that these strange beasts were not as easy to deal with as he imagined. This time, the strange beast did not move at all for several days, and such an abnormal situation made Li Mu faintly a little uneasy.
Not only that, Li Mu also found that Emperor Liu Yu, who had been fighting on the front line and came out to see if he had anything to do, had not been to the city much in the past few days. Maybe for a few days, the beast's side was too calm, and there were no signs of a large-scale attack. made the originally diligent emperor also begin to relax.
Not only was Emperor Liu Yu a little lax, but Li Mu also found that most of the ordinary soldiers had been a little lax in the past few days. Li Mu was very scared, if there was really some conspiracy among the alien beasts. Surprise and lax defense on their side, I am afraid that they will be caught off guard, and even this impregnable pass in front of them may not be guaranteed.
In the past few days, Li Mu has reminded Liu Yu several times that there may be a big conspiracy of alien beasts, and it is necessary to guard against it. As a result, the originally shrewd emperor laughed it off, and did not take his bitter heart to heart at all. knew that he seemed to have been given a hot meal, so he directly told Li Mu that from now on, everything in the pass would be arranged by him.
Li Mu smiled bitterly, quite helpless about this. Liu Yu, who holds power firmly in his hands, is so "lazy" that he can delegate power this time and take care of the heavy responsibility of city defense. However, Li Mu's mind changed, and it was better for him to arrange it. At least Li Mu thinks that he has a sense of danger and knows how to prevent trouble before it happens, at least he will not let the alien beast take advantage of the loophole.
Nearly a month passed slowly, but the alien beast on the opposite side still didn't make the slightest movement. In other places, the war has already begun, and even many places have fallen. On the contrary, they have always been calm and quiet, so quiet that it is terrifying.
Li Mu at the head of the city has become more and more anxious in recent days. It's been more than twenty days, and the beast still hasn't moved. Either the beast has already run away and gone to plague other places. Either these beasts are just accumulating something even more terrifying. The horror is so great that once it is launched, the sky will fall apart.
"The alien beast is attacking the city!" A shout came, waking up Li Mu, who was buried in his thoughts and worries. Looking up at the wasteland in the distance, I saw a black shadow surging in the distance, as if it was about to cover the entire earth. Seeing this overwhelming beast, Li Mu, who had been nervous, breathed a sigh of relief. "It's finally here!"
This time, the alien beast is obviously faster than a month ago, and it can be said that it is speeding at a lightning speed. This also proves that these strange beasts this time may be more fierce and more difficult to deal with. Looking at the soldiers around him who suddenly became nervous, and even a little flustered, Li Mu immediately shouted loudly, "Don't panic, archers prepare!" ”
In the past nearly a month, Li Mu, who has been a little uneasy, has been doing his best to prepare. After obtaining military power, Li Mu not only searched everywhere to repair the loopholes in the city, but also conducted brutal training for these soldiers.
Although it has only been more than 20 days, the army within the pass has been trained by Li Mu. This can be seen from the soldiers' rapid response and tacit cooperation.
In a short period of time, under Li Mu's continuous orders, the soldiers at the head of the city reacted quickly. One by one, they are ready to fight. With some nervous eyes, he stared at the vicious beast not far away.
Looking at the strange beasts that were getting closer and closer, Li Mu shouted, "Archer, release!" ”
A shout came, and suddenly arrows rained down on the city, covering the entire sky. The arrows carrying all kinds of spirit runes fell into the herd of strange beasts like a storm. The rune exploded, kicking up clouds of dust.
The rain of arrows on the head of the city aroused the crazy surname of the foreign beast, and the injured foreign beast was even more violent. Crazy roars came and went, and they rushed to the city desperately. The fierce fighting began, and it was another bloody day.
Although this time the beast was more ferocious than the previous ones, it was more difficult to deal with. Even ordinary low-level spirit runes would have difficulty breaking through their defenses. But overall, the problem is not too big. At the end of the day, although the head of the city was more difficult to defend, it was far from being in danger. This couldn't help but make Li Mu even more uneasy......
These more formidable alien beasts are obviously not the last batch, but more like alien beast reinforcements. But if it is said that the strange beasts here have not attacked the city for a month, just to wait for reinforcements, it will not be reasonable. Although the quality of the strange beasts here was poor, but the quantity was a lot, and they shouldn't not attack the pass.
If it is in this month, it is better to attack the city head one after another, than to wait for reinforcements stupidly. When the time comes, as soon as the reinforcements come, they can completely wait for work and achieve great results with a powerful offensive. Why bother to spend so much effort like now, but there is no result at all.
However, Liu Yu, who got the news, was shocked. In this month, there was no threat from strange beasts, and Liu Yu was quite comfortable. The leader of the alien beasts, the holy beast red-blooded dragon wolf is still in Liu Yu's hands, how can these alien beasts attack the city on a large scale. In this regard, Liu Yu is not worried at all.
However, I heard that the alien beast is attacking the city again, and both in terms of scale and the level of the alien beast, it will surpass the previous one. This shows that among the alien beasts, not only have there been strong reinforcements, but also new commanders. knew that the alien beasts would not be just such a batch, but Liu Yu didn't expect the next batch to come so quickly.
Still, that's fine. It just so happened that the red-blooded dragon wolf was about to come out of the Imperial Beast Pavilion, and the Imperial Beast Pavilion was just in time to make room for the newly arrived holy beasts. The corners of his mouth curled slightly, and Liu Yu said lightly, "Bloody clothes, there may be another holy beast in the group of beasts opposite, go and catch the holy beast on the opposite side." ”
Afterwards, Liu Yu seemed to say to himself, "I don't believe it, without the leader of the Holy Beast, how can this group of strange beasts attack the city!" Wuji Pavilion wants me to finish playing the Ming Dynasty, but I just don't follow his wishes, and I want him to steal chickens and rice! ”
"Subordinates obey!" As this voice came, a faint bloody aura appeared in the room. It didn't take long for it to fade into obscurity, as if nothing had happened just now.
This holy beast here is different from the laziness of the red-blooded dragon wolf, but is very diligent and hardworking. At least the red-blooded dragon wolf will go back to sleep at night, and will not continue to attack the city at night thanklessly. The Holy Beast Commander who came this time didn't have that laziness at all. It was a non-stop siege at night, and there was no respite in the pass.
At night, the alien beasts only collected their troops and rested for a while, and immediately launched another attack. The soldiers, who were already familiar with the attack method of the red-blooded dragon wolf, almost didn't smash a big heel this time, who would have thought that the alien beast would sneak attack in the middle of the night. After a night of fierce fighting, the loopholes on the top of the city were barely repaired, but unfortunately they were also heavily damaged.
This time, let the soldiers in the city have a little surname. Who said that the alien beasts would not attack the city at night, the eyes of the alien beasts at night were glowing with bloodthirsty, more hideous and terrifying, and more fierce than during the day. If it weren't for the earlier fight, the soldiers would have gotten used to it. I'm afraid that last night, it would directly collapse the city.
After several days of fighting, the alien beast seemed to have inexhaustible energy. The non-stop siege of the city night after night made the blood vomit tired from top to bottom in the pass, maybe Liu Yu was busy and didn't think much. The others almost didn't get tired and lay down, the formation mage was busy tinkering with the formation, and the workload of the rune master increased greatly. Even those in charge of logistics are desperately transporting all kinds of materials here.
This showed the soldiers in the city what the real beast tide was. Night after night, the overwhelming alien beasts that never stop bring more pressure than just psychological.
On the battlefield, it was really miserable, and the slightest mistake would allow the alien beast to seize the loophole, break through the defense, and enter the pass. In the face of these strange beasts, ordinary soldiers simply do not see enough, and they are often killed to the point of blood (to be continued. )
