Chapter 102: The Dark Guard (2)
"It's coming, it's coming!"
In the True Vision Circle, dense red dots were like waves of the sea, swarming in layers. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
With a sharp whistle, the guards bent their bows and arrows, aiming at the target they had already set: a narrow strip marked by a light stone lamp.
The whistle sounded briefly.
"Buzz!"
The sound of the swarm taking off sounded, and countless pale green trails drew a neat parabola in the darkness.
These arrows are all wind type arrows that have just been crafted, and the production capacity of the magic energy reactor is quite strong, so it is not a problem to craft attribute arrows. Slimes are water-based creatures with poor resistance to wind. There was only one salvo, and with the sound of crackling firecrackers, the red dots in the True Vision circle were missing by more than half.
"The second wave is here again, more than just now!"
The operator of the Circle of Truth Sight shouted hoarsely.
"Calm down and let them come. Stilwell calmly ordered.
A huge swarm of slimes slowly emerged from the dark ends, looking as if a translucent wall was moving.
"The vanguard of the enemy crossed the cordon!"
It's no longer accurate to say that the translucent wall is a solidified translucent sea, and the coastline has overwhelmed the warning line marked by the light stone lamp, and is still slowly moving forward. Thirty meters further forward is the first line of defense of the Light and Darkness Coalition. Now you don't need to aim when you release an arrow.
"Mage prepares. ”
The three black-robed mages stood in front with vigor, because the environment of the sewers was not conducive to mage combat, so Richard McNon didn't bring many mages, and several more died in the slime's raid on the camp and the explosion accident just now, these three mages are the only ones left now, the highest level, two and a half levels, and the most proficient skill, lightning strike: send four lightning attacks to a single target in front.
The second and a half raised the staff and began to chant, and it took about three seconds to complete this skill, but because it was a joint spell cast by three people, the actual release process was more than twice as slow as the original.
Six seconds passed in the blink of an eye, and the coarse lightning that fell from the sky, four times in a row, bombarded the same slime, and the poor slime was vaporized in an instant.
The slime of the water attribute is a good conductor of electricity. And now they are adopting a closely linked formation. Countless flickering electric sparks, like countless fish swimming happily in the sea, brought a string of crackling sounds. Almost instantly, the translucent sea of slimes vanished.
The operator shouted loudly with joy: "The enemy attack stops!"
The crowd was suddenly jubilant.
Stilwell glanced at Dark, who was engrossed in his vigilance, and said, "Surely it won't just be left to that, right?"
In this defensive battle, Stilwell and Dack set up a total of three lines of defense, which were divided into left and right wings with the base as the center, with Royce on the left and Darker on the right, Riley and Isabella guarding the house. There are three lines of defense on each flank, each of which is about 150 meters apart.
Duck didn't speak, the massive jaw pointing steadily. He asked in the team chat, "Riley, Scout." ”
In less than a minute, a small metal ball swayed from behind the formation, and there was an eye in the middle of the ball. Its flight trajectory looks like it is drunk, and at first glance it is the product of artificial alchemy. It staggered and flew into the depths of darkness.
Ever since she knew that the magic energy reactor could quickly make alchemy items, Riley was in high spirits. All kinds of bizarre props come in waves. This kind of simple scout prop is naturally not a problem.
"There is a high-energy reaction three hundred meters underground, and it should be a huge creature. When the Eye of Detection approached, the reaction was significantly weakened, and the fluctuation characteristics were consistent with those of insects. ”
"Got it. Royce, how's your situation going?"
"It's okay. It's just that there are some big cockroaches with thick carapaces, which are not easy to deal with. ”
"Big cockroaches?"
"A slime with a cockroach shell, to be exact! These guys are very thieves, and they have a hardened carapace over their bodies. Bows and arrows are mediocre. One out of every fifty of these cockroaches is very large, and if you kill it, the rest will nest. ”
"Don't let the warrior fight in close combat, beware of cockroach corpses spreading the plague, in the sewers, the poison in the body of the slime is much more powerful than that of ordinary cockroaches. ”
"Got it, I'll bring the pastor in right away. Over there?"
"No problem, I want to ask you, what is the best way to deal with archers on the battlefield?"
"Cut the distance, melee assault!"
"Anything else?"
"Cannon!" the slime is coming up again, and we'll talk about it later. ”
"Good. Isabella, what's going on over there?"
"The camp is safe!
"Build a few Ground Surveillance Towers, and my slimes will burrow into the ground. ”
"Build it right away. Dark, don't you notice something is wrong?"
"Of course. These guys aren't your average smart. The first wave of temptation, the second wave of strong attacks, and the third wave directly planned to drill into the ground, as if someone was commanding. ”
"Slimes haven't been the same since the second wave! Pretty targeted! Also, don't you think they're coming too fast?"
"There's a lair of theirs nearby?"
"Is it possible! remember? you can't win by holding on!" the girl seemed to be obsessed with her shield being smashed by the worms.
"That makes sense, but it's not wise to divide the forces now, right? Stay connected and let Riley broadcast new slime situations in real time. ”
"Roger. Good luck!"
"Good luck!" Closing the chat, Duck turned to Stilwell and said, "Ready, retreat, second line of defense." The enemy, about to assault. ”
"Now that morale is high, if you retreat, ......"
"There is a monster lair nearby, defend and counterattack, destroy. ”
Stilwell no longer hesitated, raised his arms and shouted, "Brothers, retreat!"
As soon as the soldiers retreated to the second line of defense, Riley's internal communication came, and her voice was very anxious: "Danger, danger! The enemy has a siege bug, retreat!"
"Don't panic, we've withdrawn to the second line of defense. ”
"Huh, brother, when did you leave?"
"Just withdrew. The image was passed on. ”
In the image, six huge worms measuring three or four meters long are surrounded by a tide of slimes and slowly move forward. These giant insects resemble a pot-bellied queen ant, with their buttocks forward, their tiny bodies and heads barely visible.
The "queen ant" slowly pressed on the cordon, which was composed of light stone lamps and full of remnant arrows, and cocked her ass one after another.
With a muffled thud, the "queen ant" leaned towards the back seat, and her belly instantly shrank by two-thirds, and at the same time, a large cluster of powder, glowing with green fluorescence, slowly but accurately drew a parabola, and landed behind the stone wall constructed by the first line of defense. Immediately after that, five fluorophores landed, and the entire stone wall was corroded black!
Stilwell's palms were sweating coldly, if he hadn't listened to this dark believer just now, and held on there, it would have been all over.
Although you can use the "strong wind technique" to blow the powder away, how do you know if your opponent will use this trick? When you understand it, the powder spreads, and once the highly toxic powder is inhaled into the respiratory tract, the whole army is wiped out.
But what if the enemy advances step by step like this? The effect of these strange insects looks like siege ballistas, using the method of assault? Most of the people who assault the past will have to go and never return!
Once again, his gaze fell on the Dark Believer's Giant.
The giant gun ignored him, and seemingly inadvertently raised the gun's mouth, and with a bang, a blue-purple projectile was hoisted high and fell towards the position of the cordon.
Well, the distance of this projectile is quite far, and it seems that the landing point is located near the cordon, among the siege insects, but, what is the top of a projectile?
