Chapter 308: Siege
Everyone fell silent, if their Hope City was also captured, would they also become part of this vast army of bones? It's chilling to think about, so the best way to do that is to survive and live!
There were more and more skull seas, and there was no end in sight, but it wasn't until noon that they finally moved, and the white bone fighters in the first row sprinted in the direction of Hope City with uneven bone knives, about three or four thousand in number, and after more than ten seconds, they entered the range of the defense tower.
Whoosh!
The first to open the defense mechanism is the mid-distance arrow tower, because of the rush of time and the shortage of materials, these arrow towers built outside are the most basic buildings, the characteristics of this kind of arrow tower are cheap to build, fast to build, and high rate of fire, but the power is not flattering, not to mention the previous spider legion, even if it is a mutant monster that has been constantly upgraded, at this moment in the face of these arrow towers, probably not too much power.
The crowd was undoubtedly worried, and when the first round of arrows fell in the whistling sound, everyone's hearts were almost in their throats, and then the result was unexpected.
Sharp arrows passed through the skeleton's chest, some were stuck in the ribs, some hit the bones accurately, these bones were easily turned into powder, these lowest-level arrows played an unexpected result, often two or three arrows can make a skeleton soldier basically lose his ability to move, collapse to the ground, but if you want to really destroy them, you must extinguish the soul flame in their eyes.
Fortunately, the number of skeletons was so large that all the skeletons in the first row were wiped out in just ten minutes. They didn't even rush to the defense tower, and then the second wave of skeletons also followed up and launched a charge, the number of this batch was about 10,000, they were unaware of the companions who were struggling on the ground with broken arms and legs, and stepped directly from above, and the soul flames of the first batch of skeletons were soon completely extinguished in this way, which also helped Haoren save them trouble.
The second wave of skeletons continued to charge so desperately, falling all of them when they reached the edge of the tower, and then the third wave of 20,000 skeletons, many of which rushed into the tower formation this time. But those rough bone knives have limited attack power. At most, the arrow tower will be damaged to a limited extent, but it cannot be truly destroyed in one go.
There was already a cheer on the head of the city, and many people's hearts settled down, and three waves of attacks were carried out in a row. The Skeleton Legion didn't take advantage of it in the slightest. Everyone's morale is very high. I feel that as Haoren said, these skeletons only have numbers, and their combat effectiveness is really vulnerable.
Haoren and Qin Yang looked at each other a few times. I didn't feel a little worried, it was obvious that the skeleton's attacks were just testing the level of defense, and it was impossible for these unconscious skeletons to do these things on their own, which meant that the person commanding them must be monitoring this siege battle in all directions through some means, and then adjust the order at any time!
It's not good news, but now that everyone is on the tiger, what awaits them is the real attack of the Death Legion.
Sure enough, in the next fourth wave, the entire front row of the Sea of Skulls began to move, and the number of sorties this time was at least about 100,000, densely packed like locusts and rushed towards those arrow towers, waves of arrows rained down all over the sky, and the skeleton soldiers raised their bone knives and began to block, and the success rate of blocking was not low, and an average of 30% of the arrows were blocked.
This time, the damage to the arrow tower was quite high, often several skeletons gathered next to an arrow tower, the bone knife desperately slashed, only a rudimentary level of defense, and soon the outermost arrow tower was destroyed, and only half an hour passed.
There was silence on the city wall for a moment, Qin Yang shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's worth it!" ”
"Indeed, more than 100,000 skeletons have been killed."
"How much do these towers cost?" There are still people who feel pain in the flesh.
"There are a total of 500 arrow towers, and the cost price of each is about 50 doomsday coins, a total of 25,000 doomsday coins, in exchange for more than 100,000 skeletons, it is indeed a good deal." Some people calculated that the cost of this kind of primary arrow tower is indeed decreasing, but even then they didn't build too much, because the primary arrow tower itself is used as cannon fodder, and how much power can be consumed by the opponent, that's all.
"Don't be careless! 100,000 is just a drop in the bucket, Haoren and Lin Tingzhi killed more than 1 million before! ”
"Look! They're attacking again! ”
With an exclamation, everyone followed the reputation, and after the wave of more than 100,000 skeletons just now was lost, but in just a few minutes, a new attack began, just like just now, at first it was only a tentative attack of a few thousand.
Behind the primary arrow tower, there is a circle of high-level defense towers, which are built with the full strength of a few dozen senior architects and a few rarer expert architects, called the Boulder Defense Tower.
These towers have no offensive power, they are very tall, four or five stories high, and they are very wide and densely arranged, like a view of an airtight wall, so that there is no hole to enter.
The boulder defense tower is used as a meat shield, because of the use of special materials, the durability is very high, and some anti-fire and anti-ice enchantments can also be blessed on its surface as needed, but Haoren did not do this, and replaced it with a rebound armor based on the mutant beetle.
Skeleton soldiers basically use bone spear physical attacks, elemental resistance has no effect, but this armor with rebound damage has a very huge effect, although the maximum rebound can only reach 10%, but in terms of the number of skeleton soldiers, this limit is very terrifying to accumulate.
What's more, behind the boulder defense tower, the towering intermediate magic tower, is the main force of the outer defense group, in order to make up for these defense towers, Haoren and they used the cost price from the free team in southern Anhui Province to buy a large number of energy stones of various systems.
Before the thousands of waves of skeletons approached the boulder tower, they were electrocuted by the chain lightning towers behind them.
Chain lightning towers are very powerful in intermediate defense towers, and can fire the equivalent of silver-level magic chain lightning, up to 10 targets can be chained, and under such a dense charge of skeleton soldiers, each chain lightning can chain enough targets, alternating with each other, and the superimposed damage can basically kill any skeleton in an instant.
