Volume 5 Sister Zhan Lan's Counterattack Chapter 194 Yaqi Snake
A yin wind hit, the air was filled with a fishy smell, black clouds rolled down, the heavens and the earth changed, and the brilliance was lost in all directions.
"What a smell, it stinks!"
One of the soldiers defending the city could not stand the stench, and was now lying on the city wall and vomiting, almost vomiting all the overnight food, but his body did not improve in any way. Not only that, but the soldier felt that his whole body was almost completely weak, and he even couldn't hold the bow and arrow in his hand and fell to the ground with a bang.
More than one, most of the soldiers were like this, and more than half of the nearly 1,000 soldiers who originally defended the city had adverse reactions.
"What's going on?" When a military general heard the news, he quickly came to the city, but he couldn't imagine what he saw.
"General, the smoke cloud is coming from the side of Yamatai, looking like this, I'm afraid it's a poisonous fog!"
"How is this possible, when have you ever heard that you can drop poisonous mist onto the battlefield, aren't you afraid that the wind direction will change and be counterattacked?"
The soldier just guessed, after all, the source was from Yamatai, and the exact circumstances were unknown.
Just as the general was staring at the smoke and clouds, the adjutant general next to him suddenly pointed into the distance and said, "Oh no, the enemy is taking the opportunity to attack the city!" ”
The general then looked, at this time, although the sky was blocked, but vaguely could see that the dense figures in the distance were approaching, but the figure of the enemy seemed to be a little slower, although I don't understand what the reason was, but seeing the soldiers approaching the city, it is the most important thing to do a good job of defensive measures.
"Order, quickly gather the soldiers who are still in good health and put them into the defense project as soon as possible, this is the border of Echigo, and it must not be lost!"
With the sound of the conch, all the soldiers who were still in good health were gathered on the city wall, each armed with arches and arrows, waiting for the battle.
And under the gloomy sky, the figure of the enemy army is closer, closer.
When the vision was finally clear, everyone couldn't help but be taken aback, where is this enemy army, this is obviously thousands of undead troops.
There are skeleton soldiers, corpse soldiers, and the skeletons of some strange monsters, and there are ghost-like things that constantly whine and shuttle, and you can't help but feel numb to watch.
"What's going on, immediately send an order to attack, don't let them get close to the city!"
The general wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, if the enemy was a normal army, he was not so worried, but in the face of this unknown thing of death, instinctively, it made a layer of cold air in his heart.
Yamadai was originally similar to a temple or something, because the Yaki Orochi was sealed there, so even if the war raged everywhere, it would never be possible to fight Yamadai's idea. Now, Yamadai suddenly declared war on Echigo, which is obviously unreasonable.
Coupled with the thousands of dead troops that suddenly poured out from the side of Yamatai, it was unimaginable.
"Boom—"
Just as the city was still waiting for the battle, suddenly a huge skeleton trampled directly on the ground like a hurricane and rushed towards the city wall. I don't know what kind of animal the skeleton is, but now there are two red lights surging in the hollow eye sockets, and looking at the appearance of it full of evil energy, it is obviously an ominous thing.
"Shoot the arrows—"
The general gasped fiercely, and under an order, those soldiers who could still use their abilities set up crossbows and bows one after another, and countless arrows rained down, and they all shot salvos towards the skeleton.
It's just a pity that there was a clanging sound, and the skeleton was unharmed. And at the time of this arrow, the skeleton was already violently slammed into the city wall, and the originally solid city wall was violently shaken, and although the place where it was hit did not collapse, the cracks were dense.
"Is this still something that can be fought by manpower?"
The general swallowed his saliva, and his mind flashed and said, "Listen, everyone, shoot me in the eyes." "I think that since this skeleton is driven by people, it will naturally have weaknesses, and only the eyes are the most obvious around the skeleton.
Sure enough, after another round of arrow rain, the skeleton fell to the ground with a bang, splashing countless smoke and dust.
"Oh no, there's a large number of skeletons coming along and cutting down the city gates!"
As reported by the soldiers, although those swaying skeletons and festering corpses have no strength, because they are immortal, they are not directly shattered, even if they are hit by several arrows, they are still unharmed.
Nowadays, there are more and more immortal things gathered under the city gate, and in some places, because there are too many undead things, they are slowly stacked and stacked to climb the city wall.
Just as the soldiers tried to clear the undead that were about to climb to the top of the wall, there was another sound of the sky cracking, this time several skeletons from earlier rushing towards the wall. Not only that, but at the back of the undead army, there were more than a dozen dead objects as tall as a hill and carrying sledgehammers, and just estimating their strength was daunting.
"General, this place is about to fall, and it will soon be impossible to hold it!"
"Damn, where did these hateful things come from, you quickly send an order, and divide most of the people to extradite the people of the city from the other gates, and I will stay here to cut off the queen for you!"
As soon as the general's words fell, suddenly a dozen red lights from the clouds in the distance attracted everyone's attention. By the time it became clear what kind of creature it was, everyone was almost in despair.
The source of the dozen or so red lights was a bloody eye as big as a lantern, and its body was so huge that it was now literally overlooking the entire city. The behemoth wasn't moving fast, but it was several times faster than the previous undead troops.
As the behemoth approached, everyone finally understood where the source of the fishy smell came from, its abdomen was festering and bleeding, which was the source of the fishy smell, and the monster in front of him that made people tremble from the depths of the soul still had eight hideous snake heads, what was that not the legendary Yaqi Snake?
"Hiss-"
Eight snake cores swallowed at the same time, and suddenly a chaotic hurricane blew out of thin air, and the fishy stench spread faster and faster. Maybe it was because there were too many obstacles in front of him to block his pace, but he saw one of the snakes with a big mouth, and he almost didn't even see the movement clearly, and the undead troops in front of it were directly swallowed by it.
That is, in the midst of the hurricane, one of its snake heads suddenly raised again, opened its mouth, and kept swallowing at the city gate in the distance, and in an instant it actually hooked some thaumaturgy.
The panicked flood rushed towards the city gates out of thin air.
The flood beast was just a rush, and the gate that was originally quite strong and thick was shattered like paper in an instant, not only that, but even the city was washed away, and the earth, rocks and mud were scattered. And some of the soldiers didn't have time to dodge, but as soon as they were contaminated with the flood, they were already caught up in it.
Immediately after that, the huge snake's mouth was sucked again, and all the soldiers who were swept into the flood were swallowed into their stomachs.
The terrifying coercion emanated from around the Yaqi Great Snake, and the aura within a radius of a kilometer became more and more intense, except for the undead troops, it was difficult to find the breath of living beings.
Seeing this situation, the general had a miserable smile on his face, and listened to him take a deep breath and said to the deputy general beside him: "Without further ado, hurry up and take the people in the city away, how many can escape, remember to send someone to report to Lord Qianxin, just say that the Yaqi Snake was born!" ”
"I ...... Got it! The adjutant knew that this was an urgent moment, and these things had to be done, so after saying a precious apology, he began to evacuate the people in the city with most of the soldiers.
Seeing that the general had already ordered the matter, he took a deep breath again, and then raised his long knife and said: "Brothers, the border cannot be lost, retreat is our home, we will not allow these evils to defile the homeland, for the sake of protection, for the sake of humility, for the sake of righteousness, fight with them!" ”
"Fight—"
"Fight—"
……
On a hill in the distance, the figures of a man and a woman were gazing deeply at the battlefield. The man has many bone spurs on his body, and the woman's figure is slender, which is the big corpse brother and Zhao Zhuonan.
"Zhuo Nan, I know you don't want to see such a scene, so you don't have to come with me!"
"I'm here to take care of your injuries, as for what you have to do, I won't care," Zhao Zhuonan said true, most of the time her eyes stayed on the big corpse brother, and she didn't care about life or death on the battlefield.
“…… Be...... Is it...... I don't really want to do that, it's just ...... Now I can't help it......"
The big corpse brother said with a wry smile on his face: "I don't know, the final result will be like this, but since the Yaqi Snake has been released, I can't help it." ”
"Well, so, I don't blame you!"
Zhao Zhuonan sat down, supported his head with his hands and said: "After all, we are adventurers, I know that the task of the copy is naturally doomed, even if you don't come to be a demon, someone must do it." If you want to talk about war, I definitely don't like it, but since you chose it, I will definitely follow your wishes. ”
"So, I'm not a good person in the first place, and it's hard to be ashamed that you have to be with me for this ridiculous reason."
Zhao Zhuonan squinted his eyes and smiled: "Who knows, then, it's clear that you have taken a fancy to it, and you can't regret it." ”
"Hehe," the big corpse brother also sat next to Zhao Zhuonan and said, "Let's not talk about this first, but I really regret accepting this task now, do you know, why did I insist on accepting this task in the first place?" ”
"Why?"
"Life is lonely, lonely as snow. Since coming to this space, I feel that in 10 years, everything that I couldn't do before, all the things I wanted before, has basically been achieved here. After a long time, people will become numb, and the reason why I accept this task, heh, I really want to find some excitement! ”
"And now?" Zhao Zhuonan suddenly smiled, her face was full of happiness, as if even the bloodshed of the battlefield in front of her was ignored.
"What if...... If I can survive this time......"
"A certain ......"
"Ahh ”
