Chapter 131: The Door Breaks

The acid sprayed by those hydra lizards completely suppressed the temple's counterattack in just a few seconds. The price they paid was simply that there was a pungent smell in the entire square in front of the temple. Although prolonged exposure to this odor can have adverse effects on the health of ordinary people. But that time was measured in weeks, and no one on the battlefield cared about such small things.

Barrett, who had moved behind the temple door, looked at the door panels that vibrated under the impact, and the squeaky latches. The palm holding the 'Broken Peak' couldn't help but add a little more strength: "If there were an iron fence outside like the city gate, the progress of those mammoth people outside would never be as fast as today." ”

Because the next battle can be said to determine the life and death of the temple. Therefore, all the effective combat power in the temple is concentrated on this corridor. Pastor Gatsby, who had been wiping his shield for a long time, heard Barrett's complaint, which seemed to be something in words. He immediately looked up and said, "This is also something that can't be helped, our Winterspring Town Temple was not designed to fight against that kind of huge war machine in the first place. ”

Reverend Gatsby's words are not unreasonable, even in reality, no one expects the bank to withstand the attack of the armored corps. If you look at it as an equivalent, it is not easy for this construction to hold back a battalion of regular troops and a larger number of militia for so long - in fact, the number of siegers was not so large at first, but a lot of reinforcements came from the mammoth side one after another. Immediately after that, the strength was increased, and those pirates who refused to cooperate were forcibly co-opted, which is what it is today.

"That is to say, after the folding gate is breached, we must always guard the passage of the Lord." Speaking of this, Rielly glanced thoughtfully at Pastor Gatsby, "There is no backup plan for the temple!" I thought there would be traps like the Dragon Breaker! ”

"We're not a dungeon here, it's hard to place something like that!" Pastor Gatsby explained with an ugly look on his face. Of course, it's not that it's not easy to arrange. After all, in this world with supernatural abilities. There's no problem that magic can't solve. It's just that the price is definitely not considered cost-effective, and the 'Goddess of Wealth and Business' church is willing to pay. At the very least, not to equip a town temple with that kind of mechanism.

Barrett, who sensed that the atmosphere was wrong, spoke at this time: "Anyway, the carcasses of those multi-headed lizards are so big, I will use them to block this passage later." That will also slow down the enemy's progress somewhat. ”

"Mr. Boreham, you're so optimistic!" The Roman swordsman's voice was a little short when he finished speaking, and it could be seen that he was still quite nervous about the next battle. Although the commission of the 'Barbarian Stone Mercenary Group' is really indispensable for war, but such a young detachment. I don't think I've been trained enough to participate in that kind of big scene!

Under the sound of "bang, bang", the latch that had begun to gradually deform was about to be unable to hold on, and Barrett, who discovered this scene, instructed Rielly: "Prepare a spell." ”

Then, with the power of the magic words, Barrett's weapon burst into flames. Even the crackling of the bright yellow mysterious flame burning on the blade, Barrett himself dared to dwell only a trace of warmth. This spell, called 'Blade of Fire', allows the energy of the flames to be infused into the weapon, giving it properties similar to burning. When this fire weapon successfully hits the target, it will deal an additional 1-6 damage.

For the hydra lizard, which is about to break through the city, acid is already a means of not being able to pose a threat. Then all that's left is the flames. Fortunately, the spells of the Flame Blade, whether they are arcane or magical, are not uncommon. Although Rielly herself is not a scholar who restricts a lot of spells, the scrolls stored in the temple are not small. The only trouble is that none of these spells last more than 1 minute, so they can only be added as you go.

"Karma! Bang - "With the latch being broken." The gate of the temple immediately moved slowly to both sides under the impact of the battering ram. Immediately after that, the huge battering ram appeared in everyone's sight. Barrett, who had been waiting for this scene for a long time, touched his feet lightly and immediately activated the acceleration technique on his shoes - he did not choose to defend on the spot like his comrades around him, but directly launched a charge.

Such a perverse move was clearly unexpected by the mammoths, not to mention the joy of breaching the gate that made them let their guard down. By the time they could react, Barrett had already rushed in front of the battering ram. A blinding cold light flashed, and only a 'clang' was heard, and one of the iron cables connecting the battering ram to the 'A' bracket was severed.

The battering ram, which was out of balance, immediately rammed into the mammoth man, who was also protected by brackets and baffles. Although the brackets and baffles managed to protect the battering ram-wielding laborers from the arrows. But they also use this narrow space to limit the movement of professionals.

Fortunately, the battering ram's unbalanced impact was not too powerful. This didn't make those mammoth strong men break their muscles and bones all at once. However, the impact was also not small, so that the one who was hit staggered and lost his balance. I had to grab my companions to stabilize my position.

Where will Barrett, who sees this great opportunity, let it go. Barrett, who deceived himself, relied on his 'advantage of the sword'. Completely ignoring the obstacles of the bracket and baffle. Directly towards those unarmed mammoth strong men, a series of cold rays were blown, overwhelmingly slashing at the enemy in front of them.

The cold sword light turned into an icy cold air, and it whistled continuously, like an invisible hand grabbing the heart of the enemy, suppressing the selected operators of the Mammoth Dynasty to move. And the flames burning on the body of the knife did not forget to ignite all the objects it touched while flying in mid-air.

Those mammoth strong men who usually eat and drink well and perform tendon flesh only saw the flash of the knife in front of them. I felt as if I was alone in the middle of the sea in a flat boat. They can only let the stormy waves beat themselves up and down. He can only desperately let the waves sweep and pull him, pull himself into the depths of the ocean, and be powerless to make any resistance.

And in the eyes of the mammoth man behind the battering ram. Just a moment later, the heads of the soldiers rose into the sky. The corpse that had lost its head fell backwards to the ground with the blood sprayed. Then the screams continued, and the compatriots who fell to the ground with the screams were like wheat in autumn.

Could it be that an attack like this, Barrett is obviously difficult to fully control. Therefore, blood splattered, stumps and severed arms scattered all over the ground were inevitable. At the same time, the iron chain linking the battering ram and the bracket was also cut in two in the continuous sword light. A huge wooden pillar that keeps rolling after landing on the ground. The human heads that fell to the ground were crushed like watermelons that had been trampled on. At the same time, the surging bloody aura surged and scattered in all directions, filling the limited space under the battering ram support.

Barrett, who had caused all of this, was almost pinching his stopwatch - he took it as soon as he saw his victory, swinging his legs quickly to withdraw himself to the temple.

At the same time, the fierce smell of blood naturally attracted the beastly and untamable multi-headed snake lizard. When the huge number of heads collectively set their eyes on this place, the creatures that were not very intelligent sensed Barrett's threat keenly by virtue of their wild instincts.

"Poof, poof, poof......" Barrett leaned sideways like a rat boiling oil with the pungent smell as the overwhelming acid poured towards the battering ram and the temple gates. As for those sporadic acids, they were also defeated in the face of the protective energy damage that Rielly had blessed before.

Barrett himself was fine, but the acid-covered battering ram wasn't so lucky. The planks that were previously ignited by the 'Blade of Fire' are soft and carbonized. The wooden bracket is dehydrated and becomes brittle. Barrett's plan to play the battering ram didn't happen.

Because the battering ram itself is a thing of the pastβ€”only the enchanted quilt cap, the metal head, and the extremely fast pieces of wood at the junction prove that it once existed. Even the corpses of those mammoth men were now left with only clumps of sticky objects that could not be seen as anything.

The current drastic change is clearly unexpected by both sides. The Mammoths didn't expect Barrett to be able to play such a beautiful local counterattack in this situation. Barrett had intended to use the flaming battering ram to block the mammoth's movement a little, but all this was all in vain under the breath of the multi-headed sour snake lizard.

"That thing should be worth a lot of money! It's a pity Barrett you couldn't get it back! Rielly, who had been trying to save money for Lalu lately, couldn't help but point to the most conspicuous siege ram in the mosaic pile of rubbish outside the temple gate.

The metal quilt hat that could stay in place in the midst of the overwhelming acid was clearly not a cheap item. And in Rieli's eyes, the thing shimmered with a dazzling magic aura. It's no wonder she's tempted by this. Looking at his companion's expression of a wealth obsessive, Barrett smiled bitterly twice: "Outside there." I don't want to be besieged by 4-5 hydra lizards. ”

After the outburst, Barrett adjusted his breathing while observing the physical strength and HP in his character column. Obviously, the action just now was not as easy as outsiders imagined. At the same time, in his heart, Barrett did not feel that everything had fallen short.

However, Barrett's envisioned tactic of delaying some time with a flaming battering ram was unsuccessful. But his performance just now really put a lot of psychological pressure on the mammoths in the square. Seeing all this, Master Shoshone remembered his own experience that night, and he stretched out his hand and pointed to the door of the temple that had been opened: "How many people do you plan to use to bury such an elite warrior?" ”

At this time, it was not only the commander of Nuhar who was silent, but the remaining mammoth bureaucrats turned their attention elsewhere. Originally, among these people, it was not when reinforcements arrived. It was felt that the dynasty should send an experienced commander to replace this 'Second Ancestor'.

I don't know what kind of price Nuhar's father paid in the dynasty to hold this guy's position. However, this letter of appointment from the superior cannot eliminate the contradiction between the two sides. Not to mention the forcible integration of the pirates, who are constantly plotting escapes - in fact, there are more than double digits of pirates who have managed to escape from Winterspring in search of freedom these days. If it weren't for the mammoths, they were tightly guarded. I'm afraid there aren't many people left.

"If you can't do it, let those big lizards take the lead! Judging by their super thick skin, it shouldn't be so easy to fall under the opponent's sharp blade. At this time, one of the staff members sent by the Mastodon Patriarch to assist Nuhar proposed this.

However, his suggestion was met with protests from the nearby Grey Dwarves: "All the hydra lizards are important property of Dgrom City. We are here to reinforce you as part of our cooperation, but that does not mean that you are free to arrange our actions as you please. ”

"Important property, huh?" Master Shoshone spoke again, "Then give me an offer!" How much money is needed to make this multi-headed lizard take the risk? I don't think our Commander of Nuhar will mind the cost. ”

'I mind,' said Nourhar, though he roared in his heart, but he never dared to say it directly. Because he couldn't afford that consequences.

PS: Wait to make up the missing parts. At the same time, I would like to thank 'Blood-Eating Amber' for the big reward.
