Chapter Twenty-Six: The Bridge of Corpses
On September 29, the crescent moon hangs high.
It is more than 30 kilometers away from Lin Ziyu's camp on the opposite riverside.
Densely packed, as if an endless number of "people" were piled up on the shore.
Most of these "people" were in tattered clothes, and some even had broken hands and feet, and each "person's" eye had lost the whites of its eyes, flashing with an evil black and red light.
It was the more than 300,000 people who were zombied.
I don't know which zombie led the head, and with the first one "falling" down the river, and then jumping down one after another like dumplings.
It only took a few minutes for a "corpse bridge" about five meters long to be filled out so hard.
However, even if a relatively narrow river surface has been chosen, it has a width of more than 300 meters, not to mention the depth.
If you want to use zombies to build a corpse bridge connecting the other side, don't even think about it, besides...
Can the speed of the bridge be filled up with the speed of destruction?
On the opposite bank, there was a force of several thousand men, standing at a distance of several hundred meters from the river bank, with their guns and guns aimed at the opposite bank, ready to attack at any time.
The reason why this unit is far away from the river bank is actually because it is afraid that some water-based monsters will dive over and sneak attack.
Under such a dense line of guns, even elite monsters would be torn apart in an instant.
I'm afraid that it's a boss-level monster that dives over, and once it gets close to the crowd, it can cause large-scale casualties.
In the face of these monsters with strange abilities, it is not too cautious.
The speed at which the monsters built the corpse bridge was very fast, and it only took ten minutes to fill in nearly twenty meters, but it was directly dispersed under a round of shelling.
The monster legion now has only two ways to go, either cross the river by bridge, or take the bridge across the river.
The bridge within more than 100 kilometers has already been destroyed by humans in the past few days.
While filling the road with zombies and destroying it with artillery fire, the speed of both sides is faster.
At present, the zombies who have jumped into the river are not even one-tenth, and the shore is still a large area of black pressure.
Behind the monsters that humans can't see, dozens of elite-level French goblins, led by the two goblin leaders, are dancing in a circle and dancing weirdly.
Each goblin's wand had strings of crystal clear heads hanging from it, waving from time to time.
A few minutes later, all the mage goblins raised their magic wands, their faces full of devotion, and closed their evil red eyes in prayer.
A terrifying giant phantom flashed outside the solar system, and then a layer of black light appeared from all the goblins, and then they all pointed their wands, which also shimmered with black light, at the river.
A wall of energy darker than the night suddenly rose on the surface of the sparkling river, reaching hundreds of meters in length and width, and the waves of evil energy rippled like flowing water.
This wall of energy rises from the middle of the river and slowly advances towards the other side of the river, eventually staying on the shore.
Countless bullets and artillery fire covered the energy wall, but the bullets seemed to shoot into the mire, turning into duds.
"This is a forbidden spell-level defensive shield! Is there a lord level in the monster? A well-informed archmage looked at the black wall of energy, and his face changed dramatically.
"It's also possible that the boss-level Goblin High Priest can invoke power from certain beings through rituals...", a mid-level warlord on the side who was also not low in knowledge frowned.
"In short, whether it is a lord-level or a boss-level goblin, this defensive shield has a certain immunity to physical attacks, and it is estimated that it will take a few hours for our troops to bombard it before it can be broken..."
"This sucks! There are only a dozen mages on our side, and I am the only one at the level of a great magician, so it doesn't help at all. ”
The Great Magician's expression was solemn.
"Then don't waste your magic, you might as well keep it for dealing with ghost monsters..."
The ordinary fighters, who soon learned that bullet fire would cause little damage to the defensive shield, ran to the side to destroy the bridge of corpses under the command of several officers.
The defensive wall is visually more than 500 meters wide, and ordinary soldiers must get close to the river bank to shoot at the zombie horde.
Although I knew that there were probably dangers on the banks of the river, where could I care about them now?
If the corpse bridge is not destroyed, these thousands of people will not be enough to eat the black pressure monster on the other side.
However, they were afraid of something, hundreds of ordinary soldiers had just approached the river bank, and before they could even sweep away a wave of strafing, one by one the monsters that had already been latent on the shore suddenly jumped out and rushed towards the crowd with their terrifying mouths open.
These potential monsters on the shore are either elite or high-level, and only high-level monsters and above have a certain level of consciousness to understand the latent commands.
Beginner and intermediate monsters can only execute a few simple commands.
High-level monsters can easily torture and kill ordinary people, and it's completely okay to resist a few bullets, not to mention elite monsters.
Dozens of monsters were like wolves, and dozens of soldiers had been torn apart in a few breaths, and panicked screams rang out from the shore.
"Brute!"
The mid-level fighter shouted angrily with his sword in hand, and the other three junior generals suddenly sped up to the rescue.
The mid-level warlord refined the thunder fighting spirit, and I saw him crackling with thunder and lightning all over his body, rushing towards the shore like thunder, and the speed of that moment was comparable to that of a bullet.
A disgusting monster that looked like a fish and a reptile had opened its bloody mouth, large enough to wrap directly around a human skull, full of terrifying fangs that glistened with cold light.
It had just bitten off the entire head of one of the fighters and was about to pounce on the other.
This ordinary soldier has a strong psychological quality, and he will not retreat in the face of such a terrifying monster, and he will start to strafe the rifle in his hand.
However, this elite-level monster has thick skin, and bullets can only inflict flesh wounds on it.
Just as the terrifying jaw was about to bite the warrior, a bolt of lightning flashed from its side, followed by an arc of lightning slashing towards its neck.
"Go back!"
After killing the elite monster in a single slash, the mid-level warlord threw a sentence at the warrior who had survived, and then burst into lightning again and rushed towards the other monster.
In the darkness of the night, a bolt of lightning slashed through a straight line, and with each brief pause, there was an additional monster revenant under the knife.
These monsters kill ordinary soldiers like chickens, but intermediate generals kill them like cutting melons.
The war general level is almost the peak combat power of human beings, after all, there are only three war kings in the entire world at present.
Thanks to the efforts of these four generals, nearly half of the soldiers escaped safely.
There were few monsters left on the shore, but none of the four generals dared to be careless.
At this moment, several monsters suddenly jumped out of the shore and launched a sneak attack.
"Be careful! It's boss-level! ”
The mid-level warlord once again transforms into a bolt of lightning, dodging the onslaught of a monster covered in heavy scales.
This monster is not an ordinary boss-level monster, it is likely to be an intermediate boss, and the fight with the middle-level warlord will not be left behind.
"There are monsters rushing to help, all boss-level... Let's withdraw first! "One of the junior generals noticed that there were monsters on the other side of the river that were either flying or stepping directly on the river, and immediately shouted loudly.
At this time, all the ordinary soldiers who were still alive had withdrawn to the main force, and these four generals had completed the rescue, so there was no need to continue to fight these boss-level monsters on the shore.
If they continue to fight, they are likely to be in danger.
At this time, there were already six boss-level monsters and more than a dozen elite monsters on the shore, and the terrifying and evil eyes watched the four of them evacuate, and did not choose to catch up.
While they can't be harmed by normal bullet fire, there are some unconventional weapons that can pose a threat to them.
If you have to break through the firepower of thousands of people, even a boss-level monster may die.
Anyway, their purpose has been achieved.
Although the humans continued to attack the black defensive shield, it was absolutely impossible to shatter it in an hour, and the side shore was also guarded by this group of powerful monsters.
On the human side, there now seems to be only two options left, either retreat and let the monster army go ashore, or die here.
But in fact, both options are a death-defying situation.
Behind him is the fortress of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and the pressure over there is already extremely great, if the monster army here rushes over to form a flanking attack, the consequences are unimaginable.
So they simply couldn't retreat, and they couldn't do anything about it.
It seems that you can only wait for death...
Without harassment, the speed of the zombies filling the river is getting faster and faster, and it is already more than half of the ten minutes, and it will not be long before a corpse bridge leading to the other bank can be built.
In the end, this army chose not to retreat, and prepared to burn the monster legion.
No one wants to be a sinner!
At this moment, a large combat truck sped in from a distance, almost driving out of the speed of a sports car.
Lin Ziyu, who was holding the crystal Gatling, stood on the roof of the truck, his eyes fixed on the defensive shield.
