357 First wave
Long Xiaoyan and I were assigned to the first line of defense to be cannon fodder. It was supposed to be a very unfortunate thing, but after the joke, everyone's mood was much lighter, and even the people of the ground honeycomb standing next to us were amused by us and shouted one after another.
"Hey, count it into our share!"
"That's it! Up for grabs! ”
"Don't rob, don't rob! Kill your own monsters, kill a few and eat a few, just watch the excitement and don't do anything! ”
"Then I'll kill ten!"
"Ten? I'm not afraid to kill you! Hahaha! ”
Yin Fa didn't stop our noise, perhaps he also thought that this optimistic attitude would help increase the fighting spirit and confidence of his subordinates.
In a burst of laughter, the first monster finally appeared at the entrance of the cave opposite. It was a snow-white antelope, similar to a small antelope in the sun, except for two short horns on its head, it was not aggressive at all.
It's just such a small thing, and it still rushes to the front, facing the army of 10,000 on our side alone. This kind of scene can't help but feel funny, and I can't help but wonder if we are making a little fuss.
"Poof!"
I saw that Yin Fa, the deputy city lord standing at the front of the team, had no pity for this, and with a flick of his hand, a cold light flew out, and he simply hit the ghost antelope neatly, directly cutting off its neck. But the headless antelope's body still ran forward for a dozen more steps before falling to the ground in vain, as if it had only realized that he had died at this time.
I couldn't see what Yin threw when he made his move, maybe it was a hidden weapon like a throwing knife or a flying needle. And after the leading antelope fell to the ground, a large group of small white beasts poured into the opposite hole, and all of them were antelope!
The archers, standing next to the torches, eagerly lit the rockets and drew their bows to aim. But Yin Fa shouted: "Don't shoot first!" Wait for my orders! ”
There are about 100 of them in this herd, and there is really no threat. Yin Fa let them run to the front of the army formation, and then all the militiamen in the front row killed them. Such a wave of Zechao attack was too weak, and no one was injured in the first wave of attacks, except for the military formation in the middle that caused some commotion because of the rush in of the Antelope.
"Moo!"
A dull chirp came from the entrance of the cave opposite, and it turned out that the second wave was Bantam!
The bantam is slightly smaller than the yellow cattle in the sun, but the legs are short and strong, and the horns on the head are also quite hard, once they rush to the front, they are not as easy to deal with as the antelope.
"Drop the rocket!" Yin Fa finally shouted.
Seven or eight rockets that ignited the arrows flew out "whoosh", immediately igniting a large amount of stone grease that had been splashed at the entrance of the cave in advance, and a sky-high fire was formed!
"Moo! Moo! Moo! ”
The bantam cattle that rushed through the hole were frightened by the flames and scurried in all directions. But because they stepped on the stone grease on all four hooves as they ran, and splashed on themselves and their companions, they also caught fire on their bodies. The herd was completely disorganized, not only abandoning its original target, but also pushing and colliding with each other, wailing in the fire. Even if a few escaped the fire, they just rolled on the ground in terror or rubbed against the cave walls, hoping to extinguish the fire.
But those crude petroleum products are very resistant to burning, and once ignited, the fire can last for a long time. We didn't have to do anything at all to watch that herd of bantams turn into roast cows. The whole cave is filled with the smell of barbecue. Our joke just now turned out to be a reality!
But the situation behind us simply didn't allow us to really run to line up for roast beef, and the third wave of monster attacks followed, and this time it was the flying knife harrier that came.
Knife harriers are small eagles, but they are slender in size and have a long, pointed beak. When hunting, they tighten their wings to their backs and stab them into their prey like a sharp throwing knife. When it is fierce, it can even penetrate the body of its prey at one time, which is extremely ruthless.
The flames ignited by the stone grease had receded, and hundreds of knife harriers flew over the entrance of the cave unscathed. Immediately, after they flew to the top of the cave and paused for a while, the leading harrier swooped down from a high place with all the knife harriers, as if there was a rain of knives in the cave!
"Shoot the arrows! Raise your shield! Yin Fa shouted.
The archers in the defenders hurriedly drew their bows and arrows, and shot towards the top of the cave. But our militia, which acts as the vanguard force, is not a regular army, and there are very few archers among them, and even if there are, the quasi-head is so-so. Liu Yuxin can already be regarded as a leader among them.
After a rain of arrows, half of the Harrier was shot down, but half of it continued to dive down, increasing in speed. At this time, there was no time to shoot a second round, and the defenders below had to raise the shield in their hands to the top of their heads and force down this "rain of knives".
"Tuk Tuk!" Half of the knives were nailed to various shields, and their necks were broken by their own fall, and they became dead birds. But still a quarter of the knife harriers avoided the shield and pierced directly into the defenders.
"Puff puff!"
"Ahhh
After a scream, the small group of defenders huddled in the middle fell. It was the Qiu family's militia position, and they probably didn't expect that this seemingly safest area was the first to suffer casualties.
"Cheer me up!" Yin Fa roared angrily, "Zechao will only get stronger and stronger, and the number of monsters will increase and increase, carelessness will only make you die faster!" ”
"Yes!"
All the militia replied in unison. At this time, the real battle has just begun!
Sure enough, the fourth wave of Ze Tide is no longer a single monster, but a combination of a swollen-headed horse and a poisonous needle bee. The head of the swollen head is a bony mass that is unusually hard, and with its fast running and crowd impact, it can knock any creature in their way into the air.
The poisonous needle bee is as its name, there is a long poisonous needle on the tail, once a person is pierced, there is no reason to survive, and the ghost will be pricked by its negative poison and slowly corrode the soul, and it will be wiped out in a short time.
Horses and bees attack in separate ways. The swollen-headed horse attacked the left side of the defenders, and it happened to be the defense line of the middle and small ghost gangs, and the strength was not enough to withstand such a ferocious impact, and they were rushed out of a passage by the horses, and suffered heavy casualties.
And we're dealing with the main ones on this side. Although the swarm was very flexible, we lined up neatly, covering each other on the left and right, and killing the poisonous bees as soon as they approached, but the defense line was well maintained, with only a few casualties.
Yin Fa, the deputy city lord who was standing at the forefront, completely demonstrated the strong strength of the fifth Yin Gong cultivation. I finally saw his moves clearly, in fact, all he used was a face-killing type of Yin Technique. This kind of magic gathers yin power to form in the palm, and every time he waves his hand, dozens of yin qi needles are thrown out, and the monsters who are hit fall down one after another, either dead or injured.
Finally survived this fourth wave of attacks, and there was a big gap in the battle formation on the left side. Yin Fa hurriedly reorganized the team and transferred the troops in the back row to fill the gap in the defensive position. But soon the fifth wave followed, and it didn't give us enough time to recuperate.
The monsters from Death Ze are not afraid of death, and they are indeed more difficult to deal with in waves. By the seventh wave, there were even big monsters for the first time: three giant scorpions as big as houses!
The giant scorpion is not only huge, but also covered in a hard shell, which ordinary swords cannot cut it. The defense is strong, and the attack is not weak, the two giant claws of the giant scorpion are like pincers, as long as they are caught by it, both humans and ghosts are directly cut into two sections. And the most difficult thing to prevent is the poisonous hook on its tail, once it is stung, it will immediately turn black into a poisonous person and a poisonous ghost, and it will be painful.
We can't stupidly line up to fight such a large monster and wait for it to come and crush us. As soon as Long Xiaoyan gave the order, our small group of militia immediately dispersed and surrounded the right side of a giant scorpion. And the ground honeycomb gang standing next to us tacitly circled to the left side, forming a situation of encirclement.
The leader of the honeycomb is a hunchbacked, white-haired old ghost. Its resentment has reached the level of ink ghosts, and it has a T-shaped crutch in its hand, and the rest of the gang is headed by it, and it obviously has a very high status in the gang. Since the Ghost Mother does not have combat effectiveness, all the people sent to defend the city are gangs.
After paying the price of several human lives and ghost lives, we found that we couldn't kill this giant scorpion with ordinary means, the knife couldn't slash, the arrow couldn't shoot, and even the ghost fire couldn't burn it, what could we do?
Long Xiaoyan, as the captain, was naturally anxious about this, so he raised his voice and asked the old ghost: "Old ghost head!" Is there a good way to fix it? ”
The white-haired old ghost snorted and responded coldly: "There is a way, but my surname is Bai, you should call me Deputy Gang Leader Bai!" ”
Long Xiaoyan became angry when he heard it, and scolded back: "When is it, you still care about your bullshit name!" ”
"Then call me Pulsatilla, at least it's better than the old ghost!"
"Nima!" Long Xiaoyan couldn't cry or laugh, so he had to follow his wishes, "Pulsatilla is Pulsatilla!" Say what you can do, and we'll kill it together! ”
"Are you any of you who are not afraid of death, and the shield in your hand is hard enough?"
"Yes!"
"Then protect me and climb on the back of the scorpion!"
"On the back of a scorpion?" Long Xiaoyan was taken aback, "Isn't that looking for death?" You don't see the poisonous needle on that tail! ”
But the pulsatilla was very calm, pointing to the head of the scorpion and said: "This guy's shell is too hard, you can only climb on its back, drive a steel nail in the gap between its head and shoulders, and drill into its brain, to kill it!" ”
"Where are such steel nails?"
"Na! This one is in my hand! ”
The Pulsatilla's weapon is a T-shaped crutch with a sharp base and a horizontal grip at the tip of the staff, which can indeed be used as an awl to burrow holes.
