Chapter Thirty-Eight: Moths
Chapter Thirty-Eight: Moths
Along the walls of the 'Divine City', more than fifty hillsides of corpses and bones were piled up, and boundless armies of the undead rushed along these slopes. Ray gripped the machete in his hand, unable to understand why the mages had resorted to such suicidal attacks in the first place, when in fact, they could inflict greater casualties on the defenders by mixing in the army of the undead. However, thinking of the howls and curses that those guys let out when they were dying, Ray's heart was also a little chilly.
Countless undead soldiers emerged from outside the city walls, and the bones, stones, and other near-waste weapons in their hands smashed indiscriminately at those beast soul warriors wearing heavy armor. The pure steel armor on the bodies of these beast soul warriors was as thick as an inch, how could they be injured by such a weapon? I only heard the sound of countless steel plates being drawn and pulled, and those beast soul warriors who had infinite strength and did not have to worry about the strength being consumed quickly waved their huge weapons, easily blasting out those undead warriors who rushed over. With a slight push, the dry bones, which had been so light that they were almost weightless, shattered and flew out.
Mubarata stood alone in the middle of the city wall, twenty meters in front of Lei, the three-meter-long two-handed battle axe in his hand danced wildly, a circle of silver light wrapped in a cloud of black gas, undulating and fluttering on the city wall, the huge wind whistle shook Lei's ears and hurt, and he could only marvel at the terrifying power of this giant man. Countless undead warriors emerged from in front of Mubarata, and then they were beaten into piles of flesh and bone fragments, and the pile of bones increased slightly.
Lei exhaled lightly, his big eyes closed slightly, it was the first time he saw so many enemy 'people' attacking, it was false to say that he was not nervous. Think about it, the fifteen-mile-long frontal area is densely packed with such ugly enemies, and the number is too staggering.
In the sky, Lake sounded an alarm: "Ready, they rushed in, ready... Release it all, keep half of your mana, and then go down to the ground to rest, and strictly prohibit overuse of your mana, understand?"
Countless magicians responded in unison, whether it was the magicians stationed in the 'Divine City' or the mages of the coalition army, they waved their magic wands at the same time, and suddenly the light in the sky flashed, and the whole heaven and earth suddenly became clear, and a wave of light like a wave of ocean directly blasted from the sky to the sin force thousands of feet away. The sinners who were floating in the sky let out a terrified roar, desperately flying upward, trying their best to avoid this dazzling light wave, but there were still people who were a little slower, and the whole person was shrouded in a burst of strong light, and in an instant, there were no bones left.
Carlin snorted in a low voice: "It turns out that the legend is true, when darkness, light and all the elemental magic act at the same time, it will be combined into the kind of chaotic magic before the opening of the world, and it is really amazing... No one can survive such a magical attack, maybe someone can resist the forbidden spell, but absolutely no one can resist such a terrifying force. ”
Lei glanced at Carlin quickly, but Carlin was already staring blankly at the slowly moving light wave in the sky, as if his soul didn't know where to fly.
That bright wave of light finally hit the ground, and more than 20,000 people had already rushed over the place where the light wave landed, but this just allowed the entire magic attack to exert its maximum power. The intense light flickered, and Ray saw it, and he clearly saw that in the intense light, countless sinners and warriors were howling, and then, their bodies became thinner and thinner in the light, and finally disappeared... When the light dissipated, Ray saw a strange black cloud shaped like a mushroom in the mountains slowly rising, and within two thousand feet of the city wall, an area fifteen miles long, everything was gone, except for the clean ground.
The sinners in the air let out a terrible curse sound, and they couldn't hear what they were shouting, but they suddenly retreated, flying back to their own group. You can vaguely see them open the animal skin packages on their bodies and start to swallow, it seems that their physical strength is no longer able to support it, and they must eat to replenish the consumption of mana.
Lake slowly fell from the sky, his head was full of sweat, and he muttered in a low voice: "Alas, with these coalition mages, the magic power is more sufficient, but it is also a nerve-wracking thing to control their complicated magic power, and it almost affects his own city wall, really, don't you know how to understand me, an old man?"
Ray and Carlin were beside Ryker, and when they heard his words, their tongues almost stuck out, this terrifying blow, a blow that wiped out hundreds of thousands of undead warriors and more than 50,000 sinners warriors, was it actually controlled by this old ghost alone? So, how strong is his magic power?
Seeing the strange look in Ray's eyes, Ryker couldn't help but raise his wand, slammed Ray's head hard, and scolded: "Boy, have you ever seen a man riding a horse? Is the strength of a man as strong as a horse? But it's not very easy to control him? I control everyone's magic fused together, it's like riding a horse, but this time, the horse's temperament is a little stronger... Hurry up, call your men ready to move, their follow-up troops are rushing up. ”
Ray's helmet made a loud noise, which made Ray shudder, and he glanced at the grumpy Ryker and hurriedly looked out of the city wall. Sure enough, there were about 50,000 sinners who had just gotten up from the ground and then formed a dense formation, like a ball of ants, rushing in the direction of the city gate, as if they wanted to rush up to the three piles of bones near the city gate with all their might.
Indeed, according to the size of their 50,000 men, if they wanted to charge from the front of the fifteen-mile-long city wall at the same time, their forces would be too thin, and they could only be broken by the garrison of the 'Divine City'. Behind, a huge drum sounded, and more than two hundred 'thunder beasts' carried a dozen sinners who were frantically beating animal skin drums, leading hundreds of towering catapults, followed by at least
200,000 sinners rushed towards this side in a dense group.
The mages in the air began to bombard again, and Ryker, the only one who could coordinate this huge magic power, went down to rest, so the magic they released this time became a performance of various magic systems. Flames struck down from the sky, water ripples fell from the sky, and along with huge wind blades, thunderbolts, and meteorites, the entire desert in front of the 'Divine City' was completely shrouded in the madness of magic.
However, the sound and light effects of those magic were too good, and those sinners and warriors easily dodged in the countless magic bullets, and the blood-red fighting qi that came out of their bodies was often like a punch that could shatter a falling meteorite, but there were not too many casualties. Lake snorted in a low voice: "Wait, when my mental strength recovers, there will be you good-looking... Hmph, no matter how strong your fighting spirit is, you will have to expend a lot of strength in such a dense magic attack, right?"
The hurricane was still blowing wildly, and the speed of the sin warriors slowed down greatly, only the heavy 'thunder beasts' rushed towards them without slowing down at all.
Lei's hand was slowly raised, and he shouted in a low voice: "Keep a fixed angle, do your best, and throw it diagonally thirty degrees." The direction in which they charge is here, and it is easy to extinguish their attacks. ”
The Bicester longbowmen slowly raised their longbows, their legs separated back and forth, their hind legs slightly bent, allowing their bodies to bend into an elegant arc, and then the longbows were slowly pulled apart. With a scolding from Thunder, they let go of their hands at the same time. Thirteen thousand long arrows roared through the air, flew high into the sky, and then quickly planted themselves to the ground. The arrows were drowned out in the glow of magic, and the sound of them breaking through the air was drowned out by the roar of magic bullets, so that none of the sinners had noticed these terrible arrows being hurled at them.
The sound of flesh and bones shattering sounded wildly, and at a distance of 2,000 to 1,800 feet in front of the city wall, a living, hellish scene appeared. More than 6,000 sin warriors charged in a dense formation were pierced through their bodies by the long arrows thrown at them, and they stood in place howling. They couldn't fall down, because their bodies were pierced by arrows, from their shoulders, through their bones, through their internal organs, and pinning them to the ground.
The blood instantly stained the ground, and the uninjured sinners nearby were stunned for a moment, and the fighting aura on their bodies suddenly dimmed, and it was precisely because of this relationship that countless magical attacks in the air poured down frantically, and in an instant, they swept away the lives of thousands of sinners.
The effect of the first salvo made Ray's heart settle down greatly, and Hart's voice also came quickly: "Ray, pay attention, let go of these people, leave the long arrows and wait for their army behind, hum, I'll see how long they can rush." In the past, they attacked the city, and the highest record was a seven-day siege, leaving behind millions of corpses and slipping away, I see how long they can hold out this time. ”
Jerry let out an exclamation next to him, in seven days, millions of people were killed, these sinners were really moths to kill themselves.
At Hart's order, Ray ordered the Bicester longbowmen to lower their bowstrings, and the entire queue slowly retreated a hundred feet or so. Anyway, when there are sinners everywhere outside the city walls, you can shoot them with a casual bow, and if you go forward a hundred feet or go back a hundred feet, it will have no effect at all. Jerry and the others who were there watching the excitement of the high-ranking knights of the coalition also stepped back, and their positions were quickly filled with swordsmen of light with swords in their hands, or judges with all kinds of heavy weapons.
The first group of sinners rushed closer, and they were now about 30,000 people left, and then, countless coalition strong archers threw a dense rain of arrows, and these delicate feathered arrows vigorously stopped the momentum of these sinners' charge, forcing them to use their wooden sticks to strike countless feathered arrows. And as soon as the speed of these sinners' charge slowed down, countless magic bullets fell on their heads, smashing them to the ground, spitting blood and howling wildly.
No matter how strong these sinners were, they were still flesh and blood, and they couldn't hold out for long under the dense magic attacks of a storm.
However, they still rushed closer, and these tall, naked, many people rushed over the pile of three bones with heavy sticks and roaring. Mubarata laughed maniacally, and a white light suddenly flashed from his battle axe, and he slashed down head-on. The sinner warrior who was facing him roared, and the stick struck out from the sky, hitting the handle of the tomahawk squarely. With a 'dang bang', the wooden stick infused with a powerful fighting spirit and the pure steel axe handle made a sound of gold and iron.
Mubarata trembled slightly, and took a small step back, while the sinner warrior spurted out a mouthful of blood, and his whole body was so weak that his bones had been destroyed by Mubarata's heavy blow. The most powerful warrior of the 'Divine City', this name is indeed well deserved, and it does possess terrifying destructive power.
And here, Bobkat, who insisted on standing with the beast soul warriors, was knocked away by a leader-like person among the sinners warriors, and the heavy stick hit Bobkat's waist, Bobkat screamed, flew high, and then smashed heavily into the coalition strong archers behind, smashing more than a dozen Dak Empire soldiers with earth-shattering screams, and their bones were broken.
Ray's eyes glanced at him, and he was horrified to see that the pure steel armor on Bobcat's waist had all been shattered, and people were using wooden sticks, how could they be so powerful?
Just thinking about it, those sinners have rushed up, their battle with the beast soul warriors is very simple, you hack me, I will hack you, everyone is using all their strength to slash wildly, colliding with each other, either those sinners were smashed down the city wall and hung on those iron thorns, or those beast soul warriors staggered and were knocked out of the way, making way for a passage. Immediately, several sinners would rush in through the gap and collide with the beast soul warriors behind them.
The loud sound of 'boom, boom, dang, dang' continued to be heard, and the entire head of the 'Divine City' seemed to have turned into an iron-striking workshop, and the warriors of the sinners and the warriors of the beast soul were mixed together, fighting frantically within a distance of two hundred feet at the very front of the city wall.
Hart indifferently gave the following order, which resounded throughout the city wall: "Strong archers, indiscriminate direct shooting, don't worry about the safety of the beast soul warriors." ”
Those coalition soldiers were stunned for a moment, but immediately, they reacted, yes, the beast soul warriors were wearing armor more than an inch thick, how could this kind of strong bow hurt them? So, tens of thousands of archers came out of the fortifications on the city wall in unison, drawing their bows and shooting frantically.
Sharp feathered arrows shot at them with a whistling sound. Those bright swordsmen and rulings were already crouching on the ground, feathered arrows shooting against their scalps, and birds shot into the crowd of tens of thousands of frantically rushing big men. Mubarata laughed maniacally: "Miscellaneous people, let you see how powerful, you don't have a single piece of clothing, how can you fight us?"
The big man on the other side of Mubarata let out a howl of extreme rage, and slashed down with a frenzied stick. There was an absolute bleak sadness in him, he had already thought of himself as a dead man, and he had used all his energy to strike this blow.
There was a loud 'poof' sound, and countless feathered arrows hit the warriors who were grappling. The Beast Soul Warriors let out a smug laugh, those feathered arrows were just a little spark on their armor, and it was impossible to hurt them at all, but those sin warriors were different, all their energy, all their fighting energy was used to fight with the Beast Soul Warriors, and when those dense arrows rained down, they didn't have the time to care about these at all. As a result, sharp arrows like wolf's teeth pierced deep into their bodies, bringing out a puff of blood.
The sinner warriors shuddered involuntarily, and their movements slowed down a beat, and then, the beast soul warriors did not hesitate to take their lives with their heavy weapons. One by one, the heads flew up, the bodies with their chests smashed and flattened, and the bodies with their abdomen split flew up with a rain of blood, and tens of thousands of sinners and warriors were hacked to the ground almost at the same time, and then, their corpses were kicked hard by the beast soul warriors, and they flew down the city wall one after another, hanging on those iron thorns, and wisps of blood flowed down the city wall.
The sinners warrior who had fought against Mubarata seemed to be the leader of the tens of thousands of sinners, and his slash created a huge whirlpool in the air, and countless feathered arrows were sucked by him, and then his sand slashed down with a sky full of arrows. Mubarata laughed wildly, he threw away the axe in his hand, and blasted out with a frenzied punch, and his eyes were already glistening with terrifying blood.
The huge fist and stick collided together, and then the stick shattered, the arrows shattered in the sky, and the armor on Mubarata's fist shattered. Mubarata snorted, took a few frantic steps back with his fist, and then slapped his left hand desperately, and heard a 'click' on his shoulder, presumably to connect to the dislocated arm. Immediately afterwards, Mubarata rushed over with a murderous aura and continued to punch out.
With a mouthful of blood coming out of his mouth, the leader of the sinners staggered to the wall, his eyes fixed on Mubarata, his fists clenched together, as if he wanted to have a boxing match with him. But two 'snorting' winds suddenly rushed towards him from both sides, and the two beast soul warriors, who were not shorter than Mubarata, slammed into them from both sides with a white light.
The leader of the sinners who had concentrated all his energy on Mubarata screamed, and was caught between the two sneak attack beast soul warriors, the blood-red fighting spirit flashed wildly, and the two beast soul warriors were shocked back as if they had been struck by lightning, but everyone heard the sound of bones shattering from the leader's body.
Just as the leader of the sinners spurted blood, the smiling Mubarata had already punched over, and his fist sank deep into the chest of the leader of the sinners, and then, a strong white light flashed, and Mubarata almost urged all the fighting energy. The strong cold air forced back all the beast soul warriors within a radius of a hundred feet, and the body of the leader of the sinners instantly turned into a huge block of ice, and then, with a 'boom', it exploded, and the fine ice crystals splashed out with the color of blood.
Jerry was dumbfounded, and then he whispered two words: "Despicable." ”
Ray struck Jerry under the armpit with a heavy elbow, and Ray whispered indifferently, "Shut up, Jerry, and look at what Lord Hart is doing." This is the law here, if you want to live, you have to kill the enemy by all means, no matter what the means ... ”
Jerry looked at Ray angrily, and he whispered, "But Ray, they are all knights, and besides, Mubarata is the leader of the Beast Soul Warriors." ”
Ray looked at Jerry indifferently and whispered: "When I hunted beasts in the mountains and forests, all I thought about was to live, do you want me to show chivalry to a bear?
Jerry opened his mouth, speechless, and silently watched as the beast warriors regrouped and stood at the front of the city wall. It was probably the collision of a meal, and more than 30,000 sin warriors lost their lives, and more than 10,000 beast soul warriors equipped with absolutely superior equipment were also hit hard and their internal organs were shattered and died tragically. Their bodies were carried out by a group of beast soul warriors, who silently carried them down the city wall.
Carlin didn't know where he came from, he stared blankly ahead, and whispered, "It's too bad, it's too bad... Such a powerful beast soul warrior, they still occupy all the advantages, and there are such heavy casualties... I took a look, there were no injuries, both sides were killed with one hit... It's miserable. ”
Bobkat, who was caressing the broken armor around his waist, walked over breathlessly with his long sword in his hand, and whispered, "Oh my God, if those madmen had the same weapons as us, I'm afraid our casualties would reach the level of one to one." Damn, I finally understand why I don't want our fighters to participate in hand-to-hand combat, it's not at all a level. ”
Ray shook his head and exclaimed, "Our high-ranking knights can barely save their lives, ordinary soldiers, damn... ”
Lomat's voice suddenly sounded: "My lord, don't be amazed, they are about to start attacking again, the wave just now should be just the vanguard." ”
Everyone was shocked, and hurriedly looked out, and sure enough, the second wave of the army of criminals, including more than two hundred 'thunder beasts', had already rushed close to a distance of three thousand feet, and the soldiers near the tall catapults were already making preparations before launching, as long as they approached the city wall and reached a suitable distance, they could start launching.
Lake flew into the sky again, and he drank: "All mages, prepare to attack, be careful, be sure that everyone must leave half of their mana, and when your mana is insufficient, go down and rest immediately, and don't bet with your own lives, understand?"
The mages agreed in unison, while Mubarata laughed and looked up: "Hey, dead old man, our defense is also handed over to you, ******, more than two hundred 'thunder beasts', it is very difficult to deal with, add a few layers of defensive enchantment to us, I don't want to be beaten into a roast pig in the thunder and lightning." ”
Lake smiled and nodded, and suddenly tens of thousands of mages of the Divine Demon Guidance Group shot out at the same time, and various magical enchantments shrouded the entire city wall, especially those tall beast soul warriors, with an extra layer of flashing brilliance. It seems that these mages also know that if the 'Thunder Beast' uses lightning to attack, these beast soul warriors shrouded in iron armor are the best targets to be hacked.
Hart's voice rang out: "Everyone get ready, it's getting dark, and our Knights of Glory and Chaos are ready to attack." The mana retained by the mage team will be used on the attacking knights, so let's go down and prepare, and signal when they are ready to retreat. ”
The leader of the Bright Swordsmen raised his sword to show that he understood, and Hart and their thirteen high-ranking glory knights and a dozen chaotic knights covered in black armor returned the salute, and then led people down the city wall in a hurry.
Lei estimated the distance, the enemy had already entered the effective range, and his voice suddenly sounded in the quiet city: "Everyone prepare, shoot continuously, each arrow pauses for two breaths, and fire all the arrows in your hands for me... Shoot. ”
The 'buzzing' bowstring vibrated again, and more than 10,000 long arrows roared through the air. And just after Lei issued the order, with the hundreds of fire dragons shot out of Ryker's hand, the magicians of those mages also roared out.
As before, dense spots of blood flashed out, and the magic from the sky wiped them off the ground as the sinners who had been hit hard by the arrows cried out in pain. The sinners still don't know what the long arrows that suddenly nailed their companions to the ground are, these sinners who have been struggling on that barren continent for more than 100,000 years have forgotten what the bow and arrow are like, and those who came to attack the 'Divine City' in the past have not had the opportunity to bring back the news of the bow and arrow to them.
More than a dozen showers of arrows killed and injured about 30,000 criminals, Lei was very satisfied with this result, if it weren't for the formation of the opponent's charge being too dense, if it weren't for those magic bullets covering up the sound of long arrows breaking through the air, maybe the result would have been reduced by more than three times. With Thunder's order, the Bicester warriors marched down the city in a procession with their longbows, their arrows had been exhausted, and they were still standing on the head of the city, and they would not interfere with the battle of the other soldiers?
Clusters of fire rose in the desert, and countless sinners lost their lives in the firelight. However, as if they had no idea what death was, the warriors continued to rush frantically, and gradually, they rushed up to the pile of bones, and they rushed towards the city.
The heavy crash sounded again, and the beast warriors roared and continued to collide with them. Countless feather arrows roared out, and the feather arrows bounced off the bodies of the beast soul warriors, and then pierced deeply into the bodies of these sinners, and the moment the injured sinners were in pain, the weapons of the beast soul warriors hit them hard.
And the masters of the sinners, their wooden sticks turned into sticks in the sky, and from time to time, after the beast soul warriors received continuous heavy blows, their armor was shattered, and they fell to the ground with blood all over their bodies. A man who is extremely strong, after their death, the blood forced out of the body by the heavy pressure is enough to flow a large puddle. Many of the sin warriors shouted for the weapons that the beast soul warriors had fallen to the ground, but as soon as they bent down, their vests were immediately hit hard, and they themselves lay on the ground, and only a few lucky ones got the weapons made of pure steel.
In the blink of an eye, those sinners broke through the barrier of the beast soul warriors and rushed to the front of the Bright Swordsmen and the Judgment Fighters. It's not that the beast soul warriors don't fight hard, but there are too many criminals, and they fight a group of people with the beast soul warriors, and one impact from the others is enough for them to rush out of a distance of hundreds of feet and rush to the back line of defense.
Thunder was unfortunate enough to stand a little closer to the Beast Soul Warrior, and when a hideous-looking sinner warrior rushed in with a few afterimages, he slashed down at Thunder with a stick. Lei was shocked, hurriedly pulled out the machete, and put it on the stab. With a 'bang', the machete in Lei's hand simply exploded into pieces, and Lei was like a lightning strike, and the whole person staggered back a dozen steps, and his ears 'buzzed', and a mouthful of blood almost spurted out.
Jerry, they were shocked, where did they dare to fight these guys? Hurriedly rushed to Ray's side, grabbed Ray and ran backwards. The one who carried Ray on his shoulder and ran away was the largest of their group, Bobkat, in a hurry, no one noticed this, and when they rushed to a row of fortifications and hid, Bobkaat suddenly woke up and quickly threw Ray down, and Ray also quickly dodged a few steps, and the two of them spat in a certain direction at the same time.
The sinners who charged over waved their wooden sticks at the swordsmen and fighters who were obviously shorter, and the swordsmen and fighters who were nimble immediately met them. The first thing that appeared was the brilliant sword light, like countless stars in the sky, like the most brilliant flowers blooming in summer, and like the sword light like a waterfall rolling down from a 10,000-foot mountain. The long swords in the hands of the Light Swordsmen glowed brightly, and when they waved these long swords lightly, it seemed that this space was torn apart by their sword light.
Jerry stood behind the fortifications and looked dumbfounded, and he whispered: "God, what beautiful swordsmanship, compared to their swordsmanship, Count Thoth, who is known as the first swordsmanship master in the imperial capital, is simply like a butcher who kills pigs. ”
Unlike the Glorious Knights' simple assault swordwork, the long sword in the Swordsman of Light wields a light that is so beautiful that it can be intoxicating. As a result, many young criminals who were not very strong-willed indulged in this gentle sword light, and by the time they woke up, it was already time for the long sword to cut through their necks.
And those Judgment Fighters, only when they cooperate with these Light Swordsmen, can they see their terribleness. They followed the same route of attack as the Knights of Glory, the most straightforward and direct route of attack. Their weapons clashed back and forth in the sword light of the Swordsmen of Light, like a meteorite that suddenly appeared in the starry sky, a stinger on a summer flower, or a huge log hidden in a waterfall, full of solemn killing intent in the waterfall.
It was easy for the Guilty Warriors to see through these terrifyingly beautiful sword lights, and when they were about to fight back, the sudden thrust had already pierced their bodies in half, or slashed a component on their bodies, causing them to fall to the ground with a howl.
However, the death-defying counterattacks of these criminals are also crazy, and they often end up swinging a stick in a frenzy, and all the swordsmen of light and the warriors of judgment who did not dodge, their relatively short and thin bodies flew high with the terrible sound of bones exploding, and by the time they landed, they had already lost their lives.
Blood was splashing everywhere, and for some reason, the sinners who were charging below suddenly stopped, and this was when the magic power of the magician brigade was halfway consumed, and they all went down to the ground to rest, and they simply rearranged their formations within a thousand feet of the city. Their 'thunder beasts' had slowly moved to a distance of 1,500 feet outside the city walls, and the catapults had been erected high.
The howls were loud, and more than 20,000 criminals in the city were slaughtered like chopping melons and vegetables, without any armor or steel weapons, although they also caused a lot of casualties to the garrison of the 'Divine City', but their only fate was to be killed, and it was impossible for anyone to escape back.
Carlin sighed faintly: "It's really like those moths that put out the fire, and they can only emit a little green smoke when they use up their lives." ”
Thunder's heart was heavy, watching those beast soul warriors casually throw those corpses off the city wall without care, and occasionally a few sinners who still had breath, they were also very cruel to make up for the knife, and then threw them down...
It's getting dark, and what follows is probably the last wave of attacks of the day, right?
