Chapter 66: Journey to the Underground (4)

Collisions between factions and armies often begin with spies and scouts, with the grey dwarf scouts being elite veterans of the clan, extremely combative, and all armed with crossbows and accompanied by low-ranking priests. 【Latest chapter reading. 】.keNeN.

On Luo Ling's side, it was the big goblins who led a few goblins, and the battle began because the gray dwarf scouts accidentally touched an early warning mechanism, in the dark, the goblins first shot a few light bombs, the light bullets were shot from the magic energy projectile, and the gun canister goblin scouts had one, and its nature could only be regarded as a trick product, very simple, but it was still very useful for the goblins who did not have superior visual ability.

The light of the Radiant Bullet was a bit too harsh for the Grey Dwarves, and they immediately chose to crouch on the spot and protect them with shields in front of them. The blind fighting ability of the gray dwarves is quite good, and this simple move is also perfect for all changes. Only this time they encountered a long fire gun that could easily shoot at a distance of more than 1oo meters.

The duration of the Radiance Bomb is longer than the Gray Dwarves think, especially the inferior burning, which is equal to the light of a larger bright-topped mushroom, but it is very consistent. The Grey Dwarf Scouts had heard from their fellow clansmen who had fled back from the Parade that their opponent had a long-range magic shooting weapon, but they still underestimated the power of the Lance, and one of the Grey Dwarves was impatient to wait and just stood up.

Burst! Burst! On his body, forehead, firelight, sparks, a miniature version of the meteorite impact effect, the gray dwarf immediately fell on his back, silent.

The remaining gray dwarves glanced at the dead with indifferent eyes, then cast their gaze into the darkness beyond. The dark vision of the gray dwarves is very keen, they just saw the little fire light produced by the moment of the long fire bolt from the sight hole on the shield, and estimated the distance, the power of the crossbow in their hands is not fatal at this distance, and more importantly, it shows their recognition sight distance.

The little leader of the scouts crouched forward with his shield in hand, and when he reached the front of the group, he raised a finger and raised it backwards, and the one at the back of the scouts quickly retreated into the darkness and went back to report the news.

The little boss beckoned forward again, and then crouched forward with his shield on his head.

Several other Scouts did the same.

A gray dwarf passing by the Radiant Bullet unleashed his hammer from his waist and swung the hammer in an attempt to smash the Radiant Bullet, only to have his arm reach out of the shield's protective range and sneer! Several raindrop-sized but extremely dazzling fires flashed, two of which hit. A hand, an arm, wear it in pair.

When! The hammer hit the ground, and at the same time, the gray dwarf let out a muffled snort.

At this point, the gray dwarf scouts became more cautious, and shrank behind their shields and moved forward, saying that they were moving, and the degree was similar to that of ordinary people on foot.

He had just passed through the area illuminated by the flare bombs, and two more flare bombs were fired from the opposite side. The gray dwarves who wanted to stand up and stretch their waists had to give up this plan.

While cursing in their hearts, the gray dwarves continued to move forward, and as a result, they soon appeared, and the other party was a bunch of ruffians, and they entered each other, always maintaining a distance of more than 100 meters.

Bear with it! The passage of the dark area is not a straight avenue on the surface, the gray dwarf scout thought, you should not retreat when you encounter corners, obstacles, etc., right? A retreat is equivalent to withdrawing a distance of more than 100 meters. The goblins didn't retreat, but they were all lying on the ground, and they had found a shallow pothole, revealing only half of their heads, two arms, and a long firecracker, and they wore crystal steel helmets on their heads.

The helmet, which resembled half a watermelon and then carved out grooves on both sides to accommodate the ears, was not promoted by Luo Ling, but by Gregory, and according to his exact words, this was what the goblins needed for their protective gear.

The Grey Dwarves finally saw their opponents, and based on the thermal imaging, the Grey Dwarves were able to determine the identity of the goblins. As a result, they felt a sense of shame as being tripped over by an elephant and an ant, and when would even the goblins be able to fight the gray dwarves?

The crossbow in his hand fired a tentative round, but it didn't cause any damage, but another of his own was wounded in the arm.

The bullet shooting effect of the long fire gun has the taste of a dummy bullet, although it is mainly based on penetrating damage, but the extended damage to the surrounding area is not small, a bullet the size of the index finger belly, can blast out a hole slightly larger than a quail egg, even if the physical resistance of the gray dwarves is high enough, it is no problem to open a hole the size of a pigeon's egg, the muscles and bones are broken, the treatment of minor injuries is not enough, the treatment of moderate injuries is slightly excessive, and the priest of the gray dwarf also feels that the designer of the weapon is quite lacking in morality.

There is a limit to the amount of magic that can be used, and the gray dwarf priest chose a combination of small healing techniques and potions, and hastily treated the injuries of the two gray dwarves, which can only be said to be fine, but there is still some distance from the real recovery, in this case, it is equivalent to reducing the combat power of the two gray dwarves by about 4o%.

"What should I do?" The little leader of the gray dwarves looked at the six men behind him, two wounded and one non-combatant. "Stand back?" The little boss quickly rejected the idea, and if he retreated, he would be nailed to the pillar of shame and defeated by the goblins, a face he could not afford to lose, and he was not reconciled.

"Up! Close Combat! The little leader made up his mind, put away his crossbow and tightened his grip on the hammer.

The rest of the gray dwarves were all ready for close combat. Please go to the book == Jing You want to sell == You can also get QB to remember our website nèt

Bang! Bang! When the distance was less than fifty meters, the goblins began to ignore the shields of the gray dwarves and shoot them, the shields of the gray dwarves were made of a dense and hard wood with iron hoops, and the goblins' long fire guns were able to drill an eye in the shield at this distance, although they were no longer able to hurt people, but this power still shocked the gray dwarves.

Despite this, the small bosses decided to move forward, and he knew exactly what the elites were helping. At the same time, the priest in the group took action, casting a dark spell in front of him as far as the spell could reach.

Darkness can produce natural darkness with a radius of about 6 meters, and this darkness cannot be penetrated even by the dark vision of gray dwarves. Goblins naturally can't see it. With its presence, the goblins will be much less threatening when shooting at close range.

Sure enough, the goblins began to shoot indiscriminately, and there was the sound of crawling and running.

The little leader of the gray dwarf sneered in his heart: "Sure enough, he retreated!" ”

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and the sneer quickly turned into a wail, and suddenly two pieces of flames with a diameter of about five meters exploded, burning the little leader of the gray dwarf into a burning man, and died instantly, and even a nearby gray dwarf was affected and burned.

It turned out that the goblins did not retreat, but took advantage of the dark magic to rush out and lay a line mine. As a result, the leading gray dwarf leader was hit by this ready-to-use fire thunder. This fire thunder is actually a simple version of the elemental bomb used by Luo Ling, which can be thrown or buried, and the burial method is very simple, pull the line between the two thunders, one touch, two explosions.

When the small boss dies, the command of the team automatically falls to the second-level priest. The grey dwarf's priest was not as brave as the little leader, and ordered the team to take cover and wait for reinforcements.

After a few minutes, the effects of the dark spell dissipated, and the goblins had lost their presence on the opposite position. A few gray dwarves didn't know whether to be happy or melancholy, the priest made a low-level mistake at this time, just now because of the influence of dark magic, he didn't confirm the specific situation of the little leader, at this time, it was like going up to confirm. Because there was no one on the opposite side, he thought that this round of confrontation was over, and stood up straight with his shield and walked towards the small leader who fell to the ground.

At this moment, several goblins jumped out from behind the turn, and with a flick of their hands, the priest was shot twice, killing him at the moment! By the time the other dwarves fought back with their crossbows, the goblins had slipped away, and several gray dwarves heard the goblins arguing over who didn't hit. This time, the gray dwarves were really depressed.

When the leading gray dwarf general learned of this, he was eager to hang a few of the remaining survivors immediately, but in the end he calmed down and simply incorporated those gray dwarves into the first stormtroopers of the ensuing battle.

"A lowly, obscene and cowardly goblin has the courage to charge and set a trap!?" The general of the gray dwarf did not give it in vain, he could still see the hidden information behind some of the events. He knew that a strong army was made by constant victories, and that the courage of those goblins showed that they had always won before, and that was what fattened their courage.

"Did you really kick down the iron plate?" The Grey Dwarf General imagines a team of several races, as well as some new magical weapons. "Behind these, there should be a powerful individual or several powerful individuals, what is it? A lich ready to move into the depths of the Shadows? Or is it some expanding organization? ”

The gray dwarves searched their memories, but they couldn't find a single race with a fighting style similar to that of their opponents this time. "Order the heavy infantry to clear the way, and the Warlock Regiment and the Priest Regiment follow."

"Yes!"

"Hurry the Dark Giants and Dark Orcs again, our belongings have been smashed in, and I want to hear the noise."

"Yes!"

As the order was delivered, the hoplites removed their armor from the pack beasts and armed the entire column. The heavy infantry of the Grey Dwarves are known for their torrents of steel, but these torrents must not be tired when they are not fighting. It is insurance to advance like this now, but it will consume more combat power.

However, no one dared to question the orders of the Grey Dwarf General, a Grey Dwarf named Kamshe, who had commanded eleven major battles and was undefeated, and was arguably the most commanding general in the region.

"Morale, we can't be dampened by the fragmentation of the enemy. There is also time, and every extra minute of preparation for the enemy is cruel to oneself. ”

The Grey Dwarf General's idea was indeed right in a way, and in the face of the advance of the array of heavy infantry plus the Warlock and the Priesthood, the goblins' battle was not a big deal.

In the blink of an eye, the soldiers were already in the city.

The passage at this end of Mutland is quite wide, with a horizontal surface of more than 200 meters, an average height of more than 70 meters, and a depth of more than 2,000 meters.

"Array, assemble the trebuchet!"

In large-scale battles, there are generally ballistas, stone machines and other things, large stones can strike at points, stone rain can strike at the opposite side, add fire oil, more powerful. This gray dwarf clan did not lose the face of the word dwarf in the race, and the heavy pendulum stone machine made can be projected more than 4oo catties of stone projectiles 8oo meters away, which is almost the distance of the large trebuchet in "The Lord of the Rings", which can be said to be quite terrifying.

It's just that he met Luo Ling, an outsider, and it is destined that this kind of trebuchet that terrifies all the dungeon residents within a radius of hundreds of miles can only be a tragedy. The lava rock machine test distance after the previous rock barrier is 12oo meters......

After a tense hustle and bustle, the army of the Grey Dwarves lined up about 7oo from the rock barrier, and behind the array, five trebuchets were assembled, with skilled craftsmen and coolies in charge of quarrying stones, filling the bags with the stone bullets that had been prepared.

Squeak! Boom! The process of trebuchet shooting looks quite energetic, with a huge heavy fall driving a long swinging arm, and at the end of the swing arm, the soft throwing belt is connected to the throwing pocket, giving the impression of raising the Titan whip when shooting the projectile.

Tong! A dull sound came after more than ten seconds, and it was not visible, but the gray dwarves knew it and hit it accurately. With this sound, they seemed to see an extra depression and dozens of large and small cracks in the city wall.

Woohoo! The dwarves cheered in unison, led by the commander. Loud noises spread in the dark area, echoing wave after wave, which often brings huge psychological pressure to the opponent, because you have no idea how many people there are in the dark.

The corners of Kamxie's mouth curled slightly, "Put on the fire pot." ”

Fire canisters, also known as fuel cans, burn fiercely, but more importantly, to illuminate the target. In dark areas, especially in the depths and beyond, natural light sources will go off at a staggering frequency, while magical light sources will attract attackers like rotting fruit to flies. The gray dwarves take this very seriously, so even their warlock group does not have any magical artifacts that glow with magical light, and it is very long to make the target light and become a conspicuous target.

The fire pot is loaded, lit, and boom! Fly out, arc your eyebrows in the void under the gaze of the crowd, and then, bam! Suddenly exploded in mid-air, turning into a day of scattered fire.

Roar!

This time, it was the defensive side that roared.

On the rock rampart, Orburk grinned and grinned. It was his own modified Long Fire Gun that shot down the fire canister, or as it should be called, the Wind Cannon. The caliber is thicker than a bazooka, and it is wind-powered, and when it is shot, it is like blowing up a thick-skinned balloon, boom! The recoil is extremely strong, and the effect is obvious.

"Five cans!" As soon as Kamshei raised his hand, he let the five trebuchets shoot at full power.

Purr! Five fire pots were lifted into the air.

"What's this? This is far worse than playing flying saucers, and it's strange that you can't beat it! "Many of the dwarves of the Self-Defense Forces have this in mind. In order to deal with the air units, they usually use a UFO machine for practice, and throw out a stone disk, which is much stronger than the plastic frisbee on the earth. This graceful parabolic fire pot has enough time for them to aim and shoot.

Laugh at...... The bullet particles rained down like a rain of fire, and one of the five fire canisters turned into a splash of fire, burning an area more than 100 meters away in front of the barrier into a sea of fire.

"Stone Bullet!" As the main attacker, Kamshei was not in a hurry. If the opponent does not come out to fight, he will smash the opponent's city defense into ruins little by little, and see how they can defend it. What's more, he was waiting for reinforcements to arrive.

Tong! Tong! Tong! The projection of stone bullets round by round, the gray dwarves of the array know that without twenty rounds, Camsei will not order to stop, Camsei's tactics have always been very steady, and the war presided over by him will not kill many people if he loses, and once he wins, it is often a big victory.

On the other side, as a commander, Sequan's strategy is very forbearing, the location of the opponent's stone machine has been marked, he is confident that at most three rounds, all five stone machines will be destroyed, but he wants to let the enemy get closer, and the rock barrier is also very important, the damage caused by the opponent's stone projectile is very light, which makes him also very stable.

"Ati, your Fire Guard Technique is fine, right?" Seckon confirmed again.

"No problem, each person controls one, cast spells instantly, and there will be no mistakes." The fire dwarf Ati replied in the affirmative.

The corners of Ken's mouth hooked up a cruel smile, he saw a fire guard not long ago, he felt that if there were not two hundred, there were a hundred fire guards, and the other party would know what a collapse was. Wait a while, he is going to have a goddess scattering flowers and a god general......

At the same time, Luo Ling was in his room, studying the alchemy potion of the gas worm as the main material, and he was trying to understand what kind of substance the Dongdong could form a resin film, and what kind of form it was in the wing membrane of the gas worm, and how it was produced. The alchemy potion is too unrealistic to use, not to mention the timeliness, the number of slaves is still large, and mass production cannot be done in a short time. Prompted by Heck's 'organ theory', Luo Ling wanted to make it in the form of props and equipment, just like a breathing mask, each person was equipped with a set, which was more convenient.

There was already a war outside, Luo Ling was clear, but he decided that it was a last resort, not to participate in the battle, he was not a nanny, and he would leave for a long time. In terms of technology, it has basically been perfected. For the rest, the organization is on their own for it to grow. Luo Ling also wanted to show some useful talents through this battle, and his eyes, the floating puppet known as 'Magcha', never let up for a moment.

There were twenty rounds of stone projectiles, and the total number of projectiles exceeded 100. Theoretically, the opponent's wall should be crumbling even if it does not collapse. But that's always the tom! Tong! The sound made Kamshei a little skeptical about the results of the bombardment.

"The whole column, 65 calories (about 2oo meters) forward."

The Grey Dwarf's forces move forward, while the trebuchets are manned by two groups of more than twenty minotaurs and bear goblins... Carry. Not to mention the sinking of this big guy itself, it also has great requirements for the ground, which needs to be leveled in advance and set up claws to maintain stability, which is more troublesome to move.

"Commander, the enemy has moved forward about two hundred meters." A goblin lieutenant reports to Secon. Luo Ling's servants have a rudimentary rock and iron sensor that can sense the presence of creatures within a certain range, and number these sensors and set them in advance, even in the dark, they can know the approximate location of the person.

"By them!" Seckin then ordered, "Put the tendons." ”

If it is replaced by other forces, hearing this order, it will definitely be inexplicable, what a god? Put meat tendons when you fight? Food?

It's really eaten, small pieces by piece, and the more you chew it, the more fragrant it becomes, but it's quite difficult to really chew it and swallow it in your stomach.

Secken is not in vain to follow Luo Ling, Luo Ling sometimes randomly teaches his followers some small knowledge and skills, just like comparing things to relieve the pressure on the battlefield, Secken remembers to work very hard, and he does it very well. In this depressing atmosphere where you can't see anything and you are not allowed to talk to each other in the position, there is such a small snack to chew, and the mind can relax a lot.

"Damn, this kind of meat tendon is so delicious, but it's a pity that the processing method is secret, and it will only be ...... when fighting" The soldiers of the defending side waited quietly while grinding their teeth. They heard the drum-like footsteps of the Shadows Giants, and heard the deep, powerful war cries of the Shadows Orcs. In the past, they were afraid that they would hate their parents for having two legs less, but now, their hearts are in their stomachs, they are very determined, they know that Zhan Yun is almost brewing, and the show is about to start.

The special smell of burning oil in the air is the smell of gunsmoke in this world. The trebuchets of the gray dwarves launched a new round of projectiles, and that's it! Tong! The sound of the bombardment made the people on the rock barrier feel the vibration under their feet every time. A little nervous, but no one was afraid, many of the slaves at this moment unconsciously looked at the castle surrounded by lava rivers in the vault, where there was such a master, as powerful as a god, his light sheltered all his followers, and at the same time he also gave great power, to win victory, to create glory.

Kamshea was a little depressed, and he moved the trebuchet forward 2oo meters in an attempt to bombard the enemy's imaginary position behind the rock wall and further probe the location of the battlements of its walls, only to be heard by the sound of stone bullets crashing down on the walls of the other side that he realized that the walls of the other side were much higher than he expected. Not only tall, but also thick, the sound that never changed made him feel as if he was looking at a completely enclosed boulder gate.

"Trebuchets stop shooting, fire crossbows shoot!" Seeing that two important reinforcements had arrived, Kamshei sped up the pace of the war by a notch.

The gray dwarf brought 1o scorpion crossbows with the army this time, the maximum range of this scorpion crossbow is five hundred and fifty meters, basically, ordinary trebuchets can detect this distance, so Kamchet is reluctant to arrange it easily without confirming whether the other party has a trebuchet.

Accumulation is a dense fire, ten spear-like fire crossbows with fuel packs, which can create a pile of flames the size of a campfire, enough to illuminate.

Boom! At a position of about 500 meters, ten volleys of fire crossbows were fired, and the purpose was achieved, and a pile of fire was built on the left and right of the junction of the rock wall and the rampart, and this fire illuminated an area with a radius of about 20 meters.

Kamshei looked at it with a bared tooth. More of the gray dwarves are beating drums in their hearts.

Impregnable, but that's it. Together with the bottom of the rock wall of more than 10 meters, the total height is as high as 20 meters, and the large pile of stone bullets left is only a shallow dent, and this wall has no battlements, it looks like a thick wall, but in fact there are shooting holes, and there are several layers, but that thickness, the thickness of the bunkers on the Maginot Line built by France in the late World War I is also this extent, just by stone bullets, the five trebuchets are smashed and scrapped, and they may not be able to swing off this barrier.

"How long will it take for the cavity worm troops to break through?" Kamsey asked the adjutant.

"If all goes well, for a day and a half, the rock formations here are very solid, and there are no access points to use up and down, left and right." The adjutant replied.

"That's a ground split. Let the elite heavy infantry regiment protect the Depthsman. ”

ps: Suddenly sleepy in the afternoon, sleeping from 16 to 19 o'clock, the chapter is late. Haihan.
