Chapter 115: Dead End?

Tens of thousands of monsters rushed towards the ice castle from all directions, and the momentum alone made people tremble.

In the dark of night, there were longing ghosts everywhere.

"Archers prepare! Archers prepare!!" the adjutant shouted at the top of his voice, but his voice was drowned out by the roars and roars of the monsters, but fortunately the troops had rehearsed in advance for this situation, and the bannermen stationed at the four corners conveyed his orders accurately.

The arrows rained down, and the monster that rushed to the front was shot into a hedgehog in just a moment and fell to the ground with a bang, but Dracula's expression was still solemn, because he found that most of the monsters that were hit by the arrow except for the unlucky ghost who was set on fire before only slowed down a little and did not suffer much damage.

In fact, most of the creatures in the abyss have rough skin and thick flesh, unless they are shot by several arrows together, or they are extremely unlucky and happen to be shot to the point, most of them are only skin injuries and will not lose their mobility, so after the first wave of arrow rain, there are only a few dozen monsters that are really shot to the ground.

So Dracula no longer hesitated and shouted, "Change the Burst Arrow!"

Burst Arrow is a special type of arrow, belonging to one of the second type of magic guides, once it hits the target, it will not only make the target suffer penetrating damage, but also cause explosions, causing a wide range of secondary damage, is the best weapon to deal with the current situation, but just like all magic guides, the production cost of burst arrows is amazing, the price of a burst arrow can be worth a thousand ordinary arrows, so it is difficult to equip on a large scale, the second infantry regiment is stationed this time, equipped with a total of 3,000 burst arrows, which sounds like a lot, but for the army it is two rounds of salvos, and then it will be consumed。

But this is not the time to worry about the cost, if you can't kill these monsters as much as possible before they rush to the ice castle, maybe the infantry regiment won't be able to sustain even a round of attacks.

In fact, just as the archers were replacing the burst arrows, there were already monsters rushing under the city walls, and their huge bodies hit the ice castle, and the ice edges were splashed, and the monsters after that did not slow down, stepped on the back of the former and jumped up to the city wall.

The ice castle where the Second Infantry Regiment was stationed could not be compared to a real castle, and the walls were only nine meters high, which was not an insurmountable moat for these monsters with amazing physical fitness.

The monster was shot, but it didn't turn around and run away, but was aroused by its hidden ferocity, waving its front paws and shooting at the soldiers on the city wall, but for some reason its body suddenly froze there in the middle of its movements, and the next moment the place where it was hit by the arrow suddenly exploded, and a fierce fire snake gushed out from the wound, engulfing the monster in one gulp, and even several soldiers who were close to it were also ignited together, letting out a burst of screams.

The adjutant was in a hurry, "Shoot at the bottom of the city wall!! monsters that have climbed up will be dealt with by the swordsman!"

The archers who received the order stabilized their panicked minds for a moment, and then aimed their bursting arrows at the sea of monsters in the distance, and thousands of bursting arrows shot out together, as if to light up the entire sky.

This time, the roar of magic finally overwhelmed the heart-pounding vibration, and the army of monsters rushing towards the ice castle suffered an unprecedented blow, but in a few breaths, at least three thousand monsters were engulfed in the flames, and in addition to this, the burning flames also formed a protective ring to protect the ice castle in the center.

Those abyssal monsters who want to attack the ice castle must first pass through this flame field, Dracula ordered to stop shooting and replace it with normal arrows, tonight should be a long time, and there are less than a thousand bursting arrows left He is ready to stay in the most critical time.

The results of the round of attacks just now greatly inspired the soldiers defending the city, and for a while there was thunder on the city wall, but Dracula was not optimistic, even if the remaining thousand bursting arrows were counted, at most they could only kill or injure four or five thousand monsters, which was less than a quarter of the entire monster army, and the remaining more than 10,000 monsters were not at all something that the flesh and blood of the Second Infantry Regiment could stop.

Dracula looked up at the sky, and with nearly five spells left before dawn, it was basically impossible to hold this ice castle for such a long time.

Is it really a dead end?

Although he had the consciousness of fighting to the last man, as the commander of this unit, it was difficult for him to remain indifferent to the sight of all his men buried in this wasteland.

"Commander, take advantage of the wounds on the other side now, open the city gate and go out to kill a wave, I will lead the team, a thousand people are enough. The adjutant excitedly asked for battle.

At this time, going out can indeed kill those monsters as much as possible when they are stunned by the burst arrows, but when those monsters come back to their senses, the two-legged ones on the flat tundra will definitely not be able to outrun on four legs, so these thousand people basically don't want to come back.

Dracula agreed to the adjutant's request to organize a death squad, but rejected the latter's self-recommendation in the selection of the team, "You want to stay in the city and continue to command the battle, so I'll lead the team." ”

The adjutant was shocked when he heard this, "You are the military soul of this unit, if you are gone, how can the rest of the people hold on?"

Dracula's tone was calm, "I promised to fight alongside you, and now is the time for me to make good on my promise, we have practiced countless times in the past two years, and I believe that even if I am not there, you will still be able to command this unit." ”

The adjutant wanted to persuade again, but Dracula had already put on his helmet and walked to the place where the troops under the city were assembled, his eyes swept over the faces in front of him, and he said, "I'm going to go out of the city now to teach those monsters a lesson, does anyone want to be together?"

After a brief silence, the young soldier who had kicked over the soup bowl before took the first step, followed by the second, then the third...... More and more people walked out of their queues, and soon there were a thousand people, and there were people who kept coming forward to join but were stopped by the adjutant.

The wooden door slowly opened, and Dracula raised his long sword, "For the sake of the Empire!!

"For the !! of the Empire" The cry of a thousand people gathered together, and the sound shook all over the wilderness.

Dracula's figure was the first to rush out of the gate, and a death squad of a thousand warriors followed closely behind him, and when they rushed to the flame belt, there were already monsters trying to pass through the opposite side, but it was not so lucky, and it met Dracula, whose sword slashed it back into the fire.
