Chapter 81: War (2)
The battle on the magician's side is in full swing, and the middle part of the kelp is also officially fighting.
The monsters that followed behind the Horsehead Abyss did not leave with the leader, they were not attacked, so they still rushed towards the middle of the kelp, there was a huge amount of food here, there was a tempting smell here, and it was impossible for them to leave without achieving their goal.
But they were stopped before they could enter the Horde, and the army in the middle of the kelp was ongoing!
The first to strike were the official fishermen of the tribe.
"First Throwing Team Ready!"
The loud leader shouted frantically, and as soon as his voice fell, countless 'flutter' sounds spread, and countless sharp harpoons were thrown from the middle of the kelp, and the weapon with acceleration magic could be easily thrown three times the distance of the normal situation, and the lethality was also multiplied several times.
The more than ten monsters swimming in front turned into hedgehogs in an instant, struggling to plunge to the bottom of the sea, blood continued to overflow from the wounds, and they instinctively entered the rage by the mortal crisis, breaking through the limit of life, and once again rose up to rush towards many fishermen, but the next wave of harpoons was thrown quickly, and the rage made them fearless but not really unable to die, and it can even be said that the fury in the injured state will accelerate the death of these monsters.
Under the dense harpoons, the strongest one can only reach a distance of fifty meters from the mermaids, and finally lie unwilling to lie on the bottom of the sea and convulse, and after the violent state, these monsters are estimated to be killed in an instant.
After three waves of ranged attacks, the first throwing team stopped, because they no longer had magic harpoons behind them, and ordinary harpoons were far inferior to magic weapons in terms of distance and lethality, unless they could accurately pierce the monster's mouth and eyes and other weak places, but even Cleveland couldn't guarantee this.
"The throwing team retreats, the first team of the temporary melee team steps forward to disperse the monsters, and the second team prepares"
The leader's voice rose again, the tactics were very clear, these monsters could not be gathered together, if hundreds of them rushed up together, it was like a sharp sword stabbing directly, the middle of the kelp could not be stopped, and they must be divided and surrounded, so as to give full play to their advantage of having many mermaids.
With the order given, the throwing team that stood at the front stepped back, and another team of merfolk came out, this team of merfolk had the largest number, a full five hundred merfolk, each wearing clothes made of knife fish skin, some shields such as heart and knife fish bones, and each person swam straight towards the group of monsters with a harpoon.
Yes, it looks ridiculous to rush straight through, but this is the only way to separate the monster horde.
Hitting a stone with an egg will definitely not end well, so this team of merfolk only has the role of dispersing the entire group of monsters on the entire battlefield, and then it is to escape, simple, anyone can do it, but all the merfolk know that these five hundred merfolk and not many can survive.
......
Stone is at the forefront of the 'Temporary Melee Team', this is the most dangerous, he is not an official resident of the middle of the kelp but an inferior person, he has no freedom in life, no salary, and the only good place for him compared to the homeless is that he is in a large shed where he and his family live, and every day he can get the inferior sea rice that is enough for the family to eat, and the meat that is about to rot.
If nothing happens, he will probably live like this for the rest of his life, and finally starve himself to death when his physical strength is insufficient, so as not to cause any burden to the child!
But two days ago, he vaguely heard a news: the abyssal aura of the abyss ridge was leaking, and a beast tide was about to attack the tribe!
Stone doesn't know what the beast tide is, he has been an inferior person in the middle of the kelp since he was a child, life is just to wake up in the big shed and then go to the sea field opened up to plant crops, and then go back to sleep at night, except for knowing that the monster is terrible, he doesn't know anything, but looking at his master's frightened look, he probably also knows that the beast tide is a very terrible thing, but he doesn't feel terrible, he feels that even the bones of his body are not willing to eat even the monster, and it is worth thanking that his wife and children are the same as himself。
It seems that being thin still has the benefits of being thin, the stone thought to himself.
Later, the adults of the fishing team came to inform them that they needed to organize a 'temporary melee team' to deal with the upcoming beast tide, and the team members were selected from among the inferior mermaids, as long as they were adult male inferior people, they could participate, and the fisherman said that as long as they joined the 'temporary melee team', they would immediately receive five silver scales! After the war, the whole family could become official residents of the middle of the kelp! and get a piece of land of their own!
The official inhabitants!their own land!The stone had dreamed of this kind of thing in his dreams countless times, and now that it was in front of him, he hesitated to participate in it! But the next sentence of the fisherman immediately calmed him down.
The 'Temporary Melee Team' will face a large group of monsters directly!
Shi Shi knows how many pounds and taels he has, and he is afraid that a half-meter-level monster can easily kill him, and he will die! Although the identity of the resident and the land where he can build a house are dreamed of, all the premise is that he has his own life.
It was rare that day, the main family gave them half a day to think about this matter, so he went back to discuss it with his wife, who had been with him for more than ten years, and his wife was very opposed to this matter, she said: As long as the family is together.
But it was this sentence that made him determined.
He wants to join the 'temporary melee team'! He wants to give his family a decent life! He doesn't want himself and his wife to starve to death after their physical strength declines! Then he reports his name despite his wife's crying.
After that, all the stones felt like a dream, and the master, who had always held the whip with a straight face, smiled at him for the first time, and the master mother even prepared a sumptuous meal for him and a dozen other mermaids of the same kind, this was the first time in his life that he had eaten such sumptuous food, the crystal sea rice almost made his eyes look at the flowers, the soft flesh of the fish almost bit off his tongue, and the fish bones were so delicious that he swallowed the dates inside.
He was then taken to an open field, where he once put on a thick swordfish skin and armor made of knifefish bones on his chest, and for the first time in his life, he picked up a harpoon.
After that, every meal for the past two days was high-quality sea rice, high-quality fish and meat, and they only practiced one action: charging neatly with harpoons!
The fisherman said that when the beast tide comes, all they have to do is this thing, and whoever dares to retreat will be sent to the hanging Xingtai, and his family will also be driven out of the middle of the kelp!
In addition, the fifty mermaids swimming at the front of the line can also get an additional five silver scales, and the stone thinks that if he gets these five silver scales and adds the previous five silver scales, it will be one gold scale! With this gold scale, he can build a house where the family can live comfortably, anyway, it is a case of nine deaths and one life, so he signed up again and became a member of the front.
After the fourth time, the monster horde attacked, and the stone came to the front line, although he was ready in his heart, but when he saw a large number of monsters rushing over, he couldn't help but soften his tail fin, and the hideous mouths and serene teeth could easily tear him apart!
He wanted to retreat but didn't dare, and in hesitation, he rushed out under the drive of the leader, and his companions behind him followed.
The stone held the harpoon tightly, as if this was the only way to give him a sense of security, and rushed straight over as he had done in practice!
Finally, when the monster was about to approach, a mermaid beside the stone couldn't bear it, crying loudly, desperately retreating, the stone remembered that his name was Pu Wu, and they had talked a lot!
Because he was scared to pee, he was really scared to pee!
Closing his eyes, the stone could no longer bear the fear in his heart, shouted frantically, held the harpoon, accelerated!
For the sake of the family!
From the outside, these five hundred mermaids seemed to be sent to the mouth of the monster, and at the front were more than a dozen demon sharks, biting these inferior people who had not undergone a little combat training in one bite, shaking their heads violently, and the bodies that were about to be bitten flew away directly, and the blood seemed to be squeezed and sprayed out, and the screams came and went.
The monsters swam in the blood water, these were food, a lot of food, they were not disciplined, and the whole group of monsters began to be chaotic, frantically preying on the food that was sent to the door.
"It's not enough, the second temporary melee team is leaving!"
The team leader frowned together, obviously dissatisfied with the performance of the previous team, according to the normal situation, it should be about seventy percent of the dead and thirty percent of the lucky ones escaped from the monster's mouth, according to the habits of the monsters, they will definitely catch up, so the monster group will be scattered, but this batch of inferior people are too unbearable, and at the last moment, these soft bones actually retreated!
Fortunately, there is more than one 'temporary melee team', there are also the second and third squads, are you inferior, it doesn't matter how many deaths you have, as long as you survive this crisis and let out the wind on the outside side, there will be countless homeless people gathered from everywhere, as many as you want.
But the real melee squad is different, there are only a hundred mermaids, everyone is magic equipment from head to toe, and their own strength is also top-notch, and any one of them is a huge loss.
But with his order, the second temporary melee team hesitated, and the merfolk swimming in the front were constantly trembling, they knew that the monsters were terrible, and they would easily eat them, but I heard that it was different when I heard that I saw it with my own eyes, and the team of mermaids in front of it was gone, all gone!
Life is gone, what more, nothing!
"Big ...... My lord, I don't want any silver scales, and I don't want any inhabitants and land, can I ...... Can't let me go back."
There was a slightly larger inferior man who looked at him tremblingly, but as soon as he finished saying this, the snow-white bone knife stabbed straight into his heart, and the one who spoke convulsed and fell to the bottom of the sea.
"Now, rush me immediately, whoever kills him in the end"
The leader drew his bone knife, opened his mouth coldly, and at the same time motioned to the last official fisherman standing in this group, and the fisherman did not hesitate to raise the harpoon in his hand and stab the back of the inferior person at the end, and screamed.
If the leader's knife made these inferior people frightened because of fear, the fisherman at the end directly ignited this fear, and the fear accumulated in the bones of these inferior mermaids.
"Whoa~Goo"
The Second Temporary Guard frantically rushed towards the monster horde, but for the monsters, only the second batch of food had arrived.
The frenzied hunt began again, the monster's team was even more scattered, the leader's eyes lit up slightly, and after paying for the lives of a thousand mermaids, he finally had this fighter.
But it's not insurance yet!
So the last of the 'temporary melee squads' was forced out, the blood drove the monsters crazy, the scene was chaotic for a while, the leader finally smiled, the battle situation is not too dangerous now!
"The melee team swims to the edge, ready to support at any time, and the fishermen and all the reserve members set off to surround the monsters"
With his order, two thousand armed forces belonging to the middle of the kelp rushed out, and the real battle began!
Chief Lituma swam in the sky above the center of the tribe, looking at the situation in front of him and nodding expressionlessly, now as long as there is no problem on the magician's side, this crisis can be very 'safe'.
