Chapter 180: 'Open' Battle Giant

With the collapse of the main building, two knights belonging to the Kingdom of Cruze have officially joined the fray. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoBritton City, which was obviously attacked, was their garrison, and these guys actually dragged on until now to appear, which inevitably made the Boreham knights who had already fought with the hundred-armed giants feel dissatisfied.

But at this time, everyone didn't have time to blame the two people in charge who pushed themselves out of the top cylinder. Because the people fighting in the sword forest and the stone hail had to concentrate on dealing with the attack of the hundred-armed giant. I didn't even have time to go back and scold the previous sentence.

Scars after scars appeared on the hundred-armed giant's body, and the 12 creatures directly involved in the battle took advantage of the flaws that appeared when the opponent swung their swords. But this kind of damage is only a drop in the bucket compared to the huge vitality of the hundred-armed giant.

To the hundred-armed giants, these attackers are nothing more than a swarm of annoying flies that they can't get rid of. However, if you really want to inflict serious injuries on it, it is not a task that can be completed in a short time. On the other hand, apart from these 12 creatures, none of the other creatures in Britton City dared to directly participate in the attack on the hundred-armed giant.

On the one hand, it is because their attacks are difficult to penetrate the heavy protection of the hundred-armed giants, causing them substantial damage. On the other hand, they are not confident that they will be able to escape the counterattack of the hundred-armed giant, and even if they are hit by stones, they are very likely to die without a place to be buried.

Since there was no benefit to be gained from participating in the battle other than death, the remaining defenders of Britton City were busy evacuating the civilians who were still in the city, except for a few spellcasters who provided auxiliary reinforcements.

Looks like we're going to have to get ready to move. I'm afraid that in less than half an hour, this hundred-armed giant will be able to completely tear down Britton City. Barrett, who had never forgotten to observe the situation, immediately came to this conclusion.

Although a large part of the hundred-armed giant's attention is focused on the 'flies' who are constantly 'pricking it with needles'. But that didn't stop it from destroying Britton City - the guy was driving away the 'flies' around him while destroying everything the creature could see with his own eyes, thanks to his sheer size, his incredible strength and ability to see and strike.

In fact, the hundred-armed giant doesn't even need to deliberately attack, it just needs to keep moving forward to crush everything in front of it along the way. Whether it was the city walls, buildings or bungalows, all he left behind was a pile of ruins under his astonishing impact.

Although from what Barrett knew, the hundred-armed giant should not have been in existence on the main material plane for too long - when he came to the main material plane, he was like a torch lit in the night, and the energy that constantly radiated outward would definitely attract the attention of everyone. Even if there is no time limit for summoning spells, there is a way for the Temple coalition to arrive soon to completely incapacitate them.

But before that was enough time to completely turn Britton into ruins. At that time, the fortress, which had been strengthened by the Cruze Kingdom with a great deal of effort, would completely lose its value. And the Kingdom of Lucia, even if it is not bloodless, can easily move forward and greatly advance the battle line. At that time, the situation that is already at a disadvantage will be completely eroded.

Although Barrett is very anxious now, it is the two knights of the Cruze Kingdom who are really worried. After all, it was their duty to defend the city. And once the situation is eroded, Barrett and other outsiders can pat themselves on the ass and leave, but they will be bound to this land - not only themselves, but even their families will be greatly affected.

'I don't want to run away so early!' Georgie, you guy, hurry up and give Lao Tzu out. Barrett still roared in his head.

'What's it called!' What's it called! With this spiritual message, one rose above Barrett's head, 'Oh! It's such a stupid big guy! Barrett: Do you want to deal with it now? ’

'Nonsense! Hurry up and talk about the part! Barrett turned around and dodged the swiftly approaching sword, while not forgetting to urge his own half of his body.

The one picked at his head without any nervousness: 'It's just this stupid big one!' I didn't drive them away to be cannon fodder. I'm still very experienced in how to teach them. But are you sure you want me to summon the projection? ’

'Summoning projection? Are you sure there won't be any problems with interfering with the game like that? Will it cause trouble? Barrett asked inwardly, somewhat uncertainly.

Began to change shapes in his head: 'It's not a problem for me, but are you sure you want to use this rule-breaking method?' ’

'Then forget it!' But if you're familiar with the Hundred-Armed Giant, there should be a relatively simple solution! Barrett swung his arms to pull out a wound, and immediately rolled to the side to dodge the flying rock.

Immediately a channel was given: 'You may try to lead him to the plain outside.' When the time comes, the knights who charge on their horses can teach those fools how to behave. Don't be misled by the exaggerated legends, the hundred-armed giants are not as powerful as some churches boast. ’

According to the most popular legend of the main plane, the hundred-armed giant is the oldest hatred, born of the ancient gods who have long since disappeared from the history of the multiverse. At the beginning of time, everything is possible. The state and function of the biomorph were not determined, and at that time the hundred-armed giants, or "hundred-armed ones", were created.

The Hundred-Armed One is adept at tearing enemies to shreds with the blades or stones it wields with its hundred arms. Sometimes the Hundred-Armed Giant is equipped with several different types of weapons, but that is not common.

They have been banished and sealed from birth by the divine powers that created them. Other gods sometimes need their terrifying power to fight against rival gods and unleash them. Every time they are released, it means the demise of an old god system. No creature can confront a hundred-armed giant in battle, even if he is a god.

However, the actual situation is far less exaggerated than the legend, according to the big one, the hundred-armed giant is indeed the vanguard of the divine war, but it is only the vanguard. Their resistance to spells is good, and their resistance to magic is superb.

Although they are still scum in the face of extraordinary divine power, it is a very cost-effective thing to use this kind of cannon fodder to consume the extraordinary divine power of the hostile god mansion - this is also their value. Not to mention the damage they could have done before the Shrine could strike.

Of course, the number of hundred-armed giants required to achieve this is a bit large. After all, the strength of those defenders in the kingdom of God should not be underestimated. Even such rough-skinned creatures often don't last much under their attacks.

Every time they are released, it means the demise of an old god system. Their appearance represents a well-prepared god system waging a divine war against its enemies, and such a battle will inevitably be accompanied by the fall of the gods and the destruction of the old gods.

Even in the main material plane, these behemoths have their own nemesis, the sword of the military path that specializes in the White Crow Stream. The combination of the stance 'Leading Charge' and the 9-ring martial art 'God Charge' combined with enough auxiliary cavalry can even take down this creature in a matter of seconds.

Of course, that was an ideal situation, the hundred-armed giant would not necessarily appear in front of the formed cavalry on the plains, and the leader of these cavalry was also a martial artist who was proficient in the martial arts of the White Crow Stream at level 17 or above. But even if it is a different way, it is not difficult to clean it up after paying enough price if you are prepared.

It's a pity that Britton City is not prepared for this at all, and it is very unsuitable for dealing with such a huge creature battlefield in the city. The difficult terrain makes it difficult to use charge tactics, after all, not everyone has the ability to fly. And even with superior forces, it is not easy to deploy.

―――――― make up tomorrow

And the catapult on the castle tower has also more or less broken down under the backlog of the blizzard from the night before to the present. The same ballista side was out of shape because of the cold weather. This is not because the soldiers guarding them are careless, but because the external environment is too harsh and the material of the equipment itself is affected together.

At the end of each battle, the soldiers operating the catapult would loosen all the tension on the catapult, then grease the transmission part, and finally cover it with a tarp. Similarly, there is a similar set of maintenance processes for ballistas.

But the sudden drop and snowstorm were unexpected. Although the catapults were not crushed by the snow, the strength of the wood was not affected. What's more, the tendons of animals, which are elastic parts used in both cases, are greatly reduced in elasticity due to sudden changes in temperature. In a short period of time, it will be difficult to play the role it used to be.

If it were normal, such a change in the weather, although it would have a certain impact on the city defense equipment, would never be as big as it is now. However, after more than ten days of fierce siege and defense battles, the defenders in Brandenburg can basically be said to be about to die.

Everything has its own lifespan. Even after entering the industrial society, gunpowder weapons could not get rid of this natural constraint. Take artillery, for example! The scene of 10,000 artillery firing is very spectacular, and the scene of large-scale artillery fire washing the ground is the favorite of the firepower party. But at the level of World War II, the longevity of each barrel is basically 500-1000 rounds. The main thing is to look at the type of shell and the range, the longer the range, the shorter the life.

For example, the favorite of the multi-turret cult - the battleship main gun only has a lifespan of about 300 rounds. Based on the average rate of fire of about two rounds a minute, it is almost time to change the barrel after a few hours of non-stop firing. Of course, this is only the theoretical life, and another problem is that the temperature of the continuous firing artillery will be very high, and if the heat dissipation is not good, it will definitely not be able to reach the theoretical life.

It is conceivable that the military equipment that uses mechanical power in this era also has a limited lifespan. In fact, devices that use kinetic energy and potential energy to convert each other to work have congenital defects in terms of lifespan compared with gunpowder weapons. So the battle has been fought so far, and the tenacity shown by these Brandenburg equipment will also make people feel moved.

If you are careful, you will definitely find that the siege equipment used by the defenders of Brandenburg is no longer the same as when the war began. In the process, the load-bearing bearings of the catapult broke and the boom lever collapsed. On the ballista side, there are also things like bowstrings losing strength and bowing arms breaking. Of course, Brandenburg is not without parts for restoration, as well as spare parts for replacement.

But because they never expected such a large-scale battle, these defenders also faced the same embarrassment as arrows. The lack of prior preparedness meant that the defenders had to remove usable parts from the broken pieces and piece together new ones. Judging from the previous performance, Brandenburg's professional soldiers and craftsmen have always done a good job.

But this sudden snowstorm became the last straw that broke the camel's back. Just as the so-called practice of three years of the new, three years of the old, and another three years of patching up can be used everywhere -- as long as the material conditions are lacking. Of course, you can't expect these patchwork goods to perform exactly like the original. So in this case, it is just a performance of the city defense equipment, but this time it is a complete nest.

After all, the standardization of this world is not very good, and the accuracy of parts does not meet the requirements of absolute replaceability. At least until the weather warms up, these big guys won't be able to exert much power.

Of course, even without these weapons, the defenders of Brandenburg were confident that they would keep the enemy firmly under the walls. Although the price to pay may be a little larger, it is much smaller than letting them go south.

According to Georgie's idea, if it really doesn't work, the Vaal Knight can actually use fire-related spells. Here are a few flame marks and cloud incineration techniques, which are sure to be able to clean up those guys under the city walls in a short time. Even the corpses have become pollution-free.

However, according to the knights' thinking, now is not the time to use these methods. Although the enemy has a large number of people, they are even suspected of giving away their heads due to their low individual combat effectiveness. It is quite suitable for use as a target for training. (To be continued.) )
