Text: Chapter 70: The Tide of Beasts
In the barren wilderness, as far as the skyline can see, a magnificent black fortress lurks like a giant beast.
The fortress is hundreds of zhang high, as vast as a mountain, and its length is hundreds of miles, and the overall surface is black.
The Black Iron Fortress, a fortress jointly built by the eight cities, is specially used to defend against the beast tide, among which there are countless capable people, each of whom has experienced a hundred battles, and all of them are mobilized at this moment.
Hundreds of capable people were wearing heavy armor and lined up on the city wall, their expressions were serious, and they were holding iron swords and spears.
As far as the eye could see, fifty kilometers away, wolves, tigers and leopards, elephants, all kinds of beasts turned into a tidal wave.
In the distance, the people on the city wall felt the shaking of the ground, and although their hearts were as firm as iron, they could not help but be heavy.
The beasts of the beast tide are usually not ordinary beasts, the tiger is a saber-toothed tiger, and the elephant is a mammoth, these alien species are extremely powerful, but even so, they are just pawns of the real beast tide.
All things have spirits, and the beast race is inclusive, with all kinds of races, among which there are also high and low.
From low to high, it is divided into beasts, fierce beasts, strange beasts, divine beasts, and holy beasts.
Among them, the beasts can be hunted by ordinary hunters, and there is nothing to worry about, while the fierce beasts are no longer something that ordinary people can deal with.
If it is a weak beast, the prepared capable person, that is, the capable one, can use some energy, or the children of the family with strong physical strength can deal with it.
And the powerful beasts are already comparable to the capable, such as the blood wolf and the blood embarrassment, and the other beasts are the best among them.
The Blood Wolf King and the Blood Monster King are the kings of the two races, comparable to the Four Reincarnators, and more powerful than the underage beasts.
Further up, there are strange beasts.
Wild beasts are everywhere, and when they arrive in the wild, and even in the city, there are many wild beasts, and fierce beasts are generally isolated in a special landscape.
Some families have even cultivated those places specifically to become places for the descendants of the family to experience adventures, and most of the fierce beasts among them are low-level fierce beasts, which can not only play the role of supervising and alerting the descendants of the future, but also will not let them encounter danger.
In the case of alien beasts, they are very rare, such as the Red Flame Rat.
The Red Flame Rat is a type of alien beast, and among the alien beasts, it can only be regarded as an intermediate-level alien beast, but even so, in adulthood, this race also has the strength to rival the five transformations.
The Five Transformations are already equivalent to the legendary existences, and the original Demon Dao power, Chi Wuliang is just a Five-Transformation Ability.
And the divine beast on the top, the holy beast, even if it was Chen Yi before he was reborn, it would not be easy to deal with.
Those two levels of beasts are already enough to fight against the existence of the sixth-transformer, or even the seventh-transformer.
Although it is impossible for the beast tide encountered within the range of the eight cities to appear as a divine beast or a holy beast, it is not difficult for a strange beast to appear.
It's just that those strange beasts did not come from the breeding of the Eight Cities, but from the beast tide.
Whenever there is a beast tide, ten thousand beasts attack the city, and the first to be pawns is usually low-level fierce beasts, then medium-level fierce beasts, and high-level fierce beasts.
Above is the fierce beast king similar to the blood wolf king and the blood embarrassment king, the so-called king, refers to the king of each race, their strength is far beyond that of ordinary fierce beasts.
If you talk about the trump card among the fierce beasts, it is none other than the beast.
Strange beasts are hard to find, even if there are one or two in the beast tide, it is rare, and this strange beast is usually underage.
If it was an adult beast, it would be an existence comparable to the five transformations, and based on this alone, the eight cities would have been breached a long time ago, and they would not have survived until now.
In today's beast tide, all kinds of beast clans seen are low-level fierce beasts.
"General, what should we do?" A relatively young bronze armor capable man, his face was nervous, he had been here in the Black Iron Castle for some years, and he had experienced battles and battles, but this was the first time he had seen such a big scene as the beast tide.
The man known as the general was a middle-aged man with a majestic face, with a green sword hanging from his waist, and the strong aura around him revealed that he was a three-turn power.
Different from the ordinary three-turn powerhouse, the general has been fighting with the beast clan all the year round, and his own cultivation is the top among the third-turn late-stage powerhouses, not to mention, his strength is comparable to that of the four-turn powerhouse.
As such, he is extremely authoritative in the Black Iron Castle.
"Archers prepare, this is just the first wave of beast tides, there is no need for us to go down and fight hard, what you should do now is to save your strength and prepare for the next fight. The general said in a deep voice, and on the walls of the Black Iron Castle, a row of capable men with bows and arrows aimed at the beast tide on the skyline.
The bows and arrows used by the capable are extraordinary, compared to the bows and arrows used by hunters, which are extremely expensive, and their body is generally about three feet long, showing the shape of water blue, and mysterious ripples appear on them.
Not only are these arrows extremely sharp enough to pierce through steel with ease, but more importantly, they can carry the energy of the able.
Ordinary bows and arrows, after being attached to energy, become hard and sharp compared to the original, but when they are shot, the energy will pass away, not to mention, even if they hit the beasts, it will not have much effect, at most it will make them hurt.
But these special bows and arrows are different, these special bows and arrows can carry energy, and the capable people store energy in advance, and when they shoot out, the bow and arrow will explode under the triggering of energy.
The explosion of energy reserves, coupled with sharp arrows, was enough to inflict heavy losses on the weaker beasts.
This weapon of mass destruction is indispensable in the face of the beast tide.
Seeing that the beast tide was getting closer and closer, it was already less than twenty kilometers, and many people were beating drums in their hearts, but they did not show fear, because they were killed between life and death, and they had the courage that ordinary people did not have.
They are not afraid of death, but in front of this overwhelming beast tide, it comes from the instinctive trembling of the body.
At this moment, the beast tide was closer, less than ten kilometers, but the roar of the beast clan had already faintly heard, there were tigers, leopards, wolves, elephants, and other sounds mixed together.
The general's right hand clenched the hilt of the sword, and the Qinggang sword was pulled out with a "poof", and while swinging forward, he shouted in his mouth: "Release the arrow!!"
Woohoo.
It is not an exaggeration to fire ten thousand arrows in unison, like a torrential rain, these bows and arrows spanned a distance of nearly ten kilometers, and their power was still undiminished, shooting into the beast tide.
"Whoa!" ”
The beasts were furious, and their roars continued one after another, but the rain of arrows that came from the beast burst into violent explosions one after another, causing them heavy losses.
Boom Boom!
A blazing semicircular white light rose on the ground in the distance, and the beast tides surged in like dense ants in a large circle.
And the open space where the bow and arrow are cleaned is as if a human child pressed his finger, causing ants to suffer heavy casualties.
But even so, ants can quickly fill that gap, and the same is true for animal tides.
The first wave of the bow and arrows did not do much, and it was overwhelmed by the fierce beasts that followed.
"Just that kind of rain of arrows just now, even if it is a third-turn powerhouse, no, even a four-turn powerhouse, it will be shot through in an instant and become a hornet's nest!" A capable soldier with a spear in his hand was a little dumbfounded.
A soldier with a long sword next to him immediately said solemnly: "No, it should be broken into minced meat, that kind of explosion, one bow and arrow can at most threaten one transformer, but ten can easily kill one transformer, even if it is a second-turn person, it is difficult to survive under a hundred bows and arrows...... Ten thousand arrows are fired at once, which is simply not something that human power can compete with. ”
"However, even this only slightly blocked the first wave of beast tides. A soldier armed with a bow and arrow smiled and said to his two colleagues, but his expression was not relaxed.
They knew that the power of the bow and arrow was indeed great, but the beast tide was even more.
The wave of arrows just now, to say the least, killed thousands of fierce beasts, and countless people were injured.
But if the number of beast tides is millions, tens of millions, or even more, this loss is almost negligible for them as a whole.
"Don't be discouraged, this is just the beginning, the archers are ready again. The general's expression was calm, and his words were mixed with energy so that all the soldiers could hear them.
He's been through too much, just talking about the beast tide he's experienced, this seems to be the fourth time!
Although he can't deal with this kind of catastrophe of devastation, he finally has the ability to face it.
He is a general, the supreme leader who guards the Black Iron Fortress.
This position is very important, and everyone can panic, but he can't.
If he is also full of anxiety or timidity, what should the people under him do?
Generals, in many cases, are not only the representatives of the highest local combat power, but they also play the role of the anchor of the sea.
A good general, no matter what kind of desperate situation he is in, as long as he looks calm and has Zhizhu in his hand, the soldiers under his command will believe in him, have hope in their hearts, and do their best.
And if even the general panics, the people under his command will definitely be panicked, and the combat power will not be condensed.
Therefore, this position is very important, he can be a general for such a long time, and his own ability is absolutely passable.
"Lift the Sky Splitting Cannon out...... the general's order was given, and someone immediately wondered: "General, isn't the Sky Splitting Cannon a weapon that must not be used until the last resort when dealing with alien beasts and the kings of those high-level fierce beasts......?"
"Yes, bring it out now, every beast tide can't be treated with common sense, this is to prevent it from happening. The general waved his hand to interrupt the speaker, and he glanced at the speaker, who was one of his right and left hands, General Zuo.
That is, his lieutenant, of course, only his lieutenant is qualified to speak in this situation.
The military order is like a mountain, the big war is ahead, the general has a very high authority, and any soldier dares to question it, he has every right to kill that person on the spot.
Of course, as a soldier, everyone in the venue has strict qualities, although because they are capable and powerful, occasionally some things are more scattered.
But in the face of what the general said, he still didn't dare to refute it.
The existence of the adjutant general is not only to help the general, but also to prevent the general from making a faint move, and at the critical moment, it is necessary to remind.
"Yes. The soldiers shouted, and it didn't take long for a dozen capable people to push a wooden cart out with difficulty.
The wood of the wooden cart is extremely high, showing a purple-black hue, with special fluctuations.
At first glance, it was not a mortal thing, and at the top of it, there was a huge black cannon barrel about ten zhang long and no less than three zhang wide.
The Sky Splitting Cannon, the weapon of the Mighty Army, is infinitely powerful, and the shells in it are formed from pure energy.
It is said that in the Tianyan Empire, someone once used the Sky Splitting Cannon to kill a demon monk who was a fourth-turn late-stage powerhouse.
