Chapter 32: Fighting in the Heights
Hearing the shout, Lin Hu looked behind him, only to see that the person who came was handsome, wearing a delicate cyan robe. This person is Lang Yuechen, who has a "table" relationship with him.
Seeing that it was him, Lin Hu didn't say anything to him, glanced at each other, nodded to each other, and then put his eyes on the porthole.
The whole airboat drew a huge half-arc into the sky on the right, causing the flyboat to shake for a while, but at this time, everyone who dared to leave the room and seat and come to the porthole was very human, and quickly adapted to it.
It was a flock of giant birds that had just swooped down from the distant clouds. Lin Hu looked over with all his eyes, only to see a dark cloud flying towards the airship from a distance, those giant birds were very large, at least more than three meters long when they spread their wings. As far as the eye could see, there were at least seventy or eighty of these giant birds in this black cloud.
After this giant bird flew a little closer, Lin Hu could even clearly see the hook-like beak on the head of these giant birds.
One of the stewards on the flying boat had a serious face, and said loudly, "It's a fourth-order demon beast iron beak vulture, everyone be careful!"
The airship made two evasive moves in a row, but these giant birds just clung to the airship.
Looking at the beaks of those giant birds like scimitars, as well as the airbags filled on the top of the flying boat in order to save spirit crystals, Lin Hu also understood that these iron-beaked vultures could cause great damage to the flying boat.
If it is a high-level flying boat, it may not be so worried, because there will be no "low-level" things such as airbags on high-level flying boats, and those high-level flying boats are engraved with rune prohibitions such as light spirit and acceleration, plus enough spirit crystals, these iron-beaked vultures may not even be able to catch up.
However, that also means a significant increase in costs, with that spare money, it is enough to build a few such flying boats, thinking that this is just a tool used by others to make money, Lin Hu is also relieved.
Although this rigid airship still has a special layer of light metal protective armor on its airbags, no one knows how long that layer of protective armor on the airship can last under the continuous attacks of these giant birds.
As the iron-beaked vultures approached the boat about two hundred meters, several ballistae built into the left side and bottom of the boat opened fire at the same time.
Lin Hu only heard a soft "buzz" in his ears, and there were seven or eight of the dozens of iron-beaked vultures, and after a few piercing chirps, a few blood flowers burst out in the air, and the feathers scattered in all directions, and at the same time fell from the air, and the remaining iron-beaked ibis's giant wings fluttered, accelerating towards the airship.
The side of the flying boat revealed a black hole again, and a large wave of crossbow arrows rained out from these holes, this time, the giant birds with the last lesson dodged very flexibly in the air, and this wave of arrow rain only shot down less than five iron-beaked vultures.
Just when the iron-beaked vultures were less than ten meters away from the flying boat, the flying boat launched a third attack, only to hear two "bang" sounds, and two spherical objects shot out from the bottom of the flying boat, these iron-beaked vultures continued to dodge as they did last time, but when these two spherical objects penetrated into this group of iron-beaked vultures, the two spherical shapes suddenly ejected and became two large open nets.
Rao is iron-beaked vulture's movements are flexible, and he can only be helpless in the face of the big net that is already close at hand, that is, at this moment, there are more than a dozen iron-beaked vultures are caught in the net, and many iron-beaked vultures are covered by the big net and can't flutter, so they can only fall straight down.
Seeing this, the remaining iron-beaked vultures were even more crazy, especially the iron-beaked vulture that was more than five meters long with its wings spread out, and even its eyes were red.
Just hearing a piercing chirp, the remaining dozens of them all pounced on the airship's airbags, and the piercing sound of metal scraping suddenly sounded above Lin Hu's head.
Lin Hu didn't know if every time the flying boat crossed this barren mountain forest, it would be attacked by some dangerous creatures that could fly, but this attack had obviously caused trouble for the flying boat.
The target of the Ironbeak Vulture is clear, which is the airbag protected by a thin layer of light metal armor on the ship.
This made Lin Hu feel a little unbelievable, these iron-beaked vultures were like killers with clear and calm heads, knowing what to attack what everyone was most afraid of.
Because the people on the flying boat can't get out, and all the attack weapons in the flying boat cabin have a maximum elevation angle, once these iron-beaked vultures fly to the top of the flying boat's airbags, the weapons in the flying boat will be useless.
Therefore, the flying boat that is flying in the air is always doing complex maneuvers, using the maneuverability of the flying boat itself to throw off the iron-beaked vulture that is attacking the airship, and use the shooting weapons on the cabin of the flying boat to attack.
The Iron-Beaked Vulture flies fast and has a clear aim, and the flying boat in the sky, like a black bear stung by a swarm of bees, keeps rushing left and right and jumping up and down.
These methods of the flying boat did not have much effect on the iron beak vultures that had already approached the flying boat, but the metal armor of the flying boat itself already had a trace of cracking under the sharp knife-like iron beak of these iron beaks.
"No, we can't just sit back and die. On the flying boat, a warrior who looked very heroic said loudly.
His words resonated with the people around him, after all, everyone is now a grasshopper on a rope, and if this flying boat falls and falls, their chances of survival are almost zero.
Just when everyone was about to ask the management of the flying boat to slow down the speed of the flying boat and rush out to fight those iron-beaked vultures on the flying boat, suddenly, several portholes on the flying boat suddenly burst open, and several black shadows flashed in.
"Ah......" Several warriors were caught off guard and were immediately hit.
The black shadow that came was the iron-beaked vultures, and I don't know if it was bitter and bitter or what, these iron-beaked vultures couldn't wait for the flying boat to be destroyed, so they rushed in.
The few warriors who were recruited, the best ones were only scratched by the iron-beaked vulture with some flesh, and the more serious ones were even directly pierced into the brain by the iron-beaked vulture with the beak of the bird, and they died violently.
The rest of these warriors and the guards on the flying boat will not allow these iron-beaked vultures to be presumptuous, before these iron-beaked vultures were outside they couldn't attack, but now this iron-beaked vulture is in front of them, where is there no reason not to shoot, they have rushed up, and in an instant, these iron-beaked vultures have become dead birds.
And because it was far away from those iron-beaked vultures, and the place on the flying boat was crowded, Lin Hu didn't even have a chance to make a move.
After killing the iron-beaked vultures in the boat, the warriors and guards in the boat were greatly demoralized, and they all shouted that they wanted to go out and kill the group of flat-haired animals.
Then, I don't know how the person in charge operated, I saw that the gate and the porthole under the flyboat were opened vertically, forming a place similar to a deck on the side of the flyboat, but this "deck" was not wide, nor did it have any protection, and it looked very dangerous.
Seeing that the deck was open, the person in charge did not hesitate, and the first one rushed out, and the guards and warriors in the boat also went out with him.
A rain of crossbow arrows immediately flew on the simple "deck" of the flying boat, and the giant birds dodged very flexibly in the air, and this wave of arrows only shot down less than three iron-beaked vultures.
When those people shot at the iron-beaked vulture just now, Lin Hu did not immediately pull the trigger of the crossbow in his hand, but calmly aimed at one of those iron-beaked vultures, and only then calmly pulled the trigger when the iron-beaked vulture had just completed its dodge action and had not stabilized its body.
"Quack!" In an ugly bird's call, the iron-beaked vulture that was targeted by Lin Hu was pierced through its chest by a crossbow arrow shot by Zhang Tie and fell from the sky.
Almost at the same time as the iron beak vulture fell, a cloud of blood mist exploded on the body of an iron beak vulture next to it at the same time, Lin Hu heard a strange vibration in his ears, turned his head to look, and saw that the person in charge on the flying boat was holding a longbow that was not the same as them, and the bowstring sounded softly, and the iron beaked vulture just now should have been shot down by the longbow in the hand of the principal.
The person in charge didn't seem to notice Lin Hu's gaze, but quickly pulled the bow again, shot the arrow, drew the bow, shot the arrow, pulled the bow, shot the arrow, almost one arrow a second, and after three arrows, three more clouds of blood mist exploded in the sky.
In addition to this principal, there was another person who caught Lin Hu's attention, this person was the handsome boy Lang Yuechen, he did not use the crossbow on the flying boat, but held a delicate wooden fan and slashed at one of the iron-beaked vultures, only to see, an invisible wind blade in the air slashed, and an iron-beaked vulture, which was dodging, was immediately stunned, and then fell from the air in half.
Lin Hu's pupils contracted for a while, this is ...... The means of the occultists?
In fact, to be precise, Lin Hu is also a Xuan cultivator, and his realm is higher than his martial arts realm, but he does not have the exercises and Taoism that Xuan Xiu is practicing in his hands, so his current attack methods in Xuan Xiu have nothing other than summoning "Guo Jing".
This was the first time he had seen the attack method of the Xuan cultivator, and he was not curious that it was fake, while attacking the iron-beaked vulture with a machine crossbow, he also made up his mind in his heart, he must find a book of exercises and Taoism for Xuan Xiu, otherwise wouldn't he be blind to the realm of the fifth realm of Xuan Xiu's central realm?
With the attack of everyone, there were less than twenty iron-beaked vultures still attacking on the flying boat, and the leading iron-beaked vulture also realized this sound, and screamed a few times, and attacked the principal on the "deck".
As for why it attacked the Ironbeaked Vulture first, who let the principal shoot the most Ironbeaked Vultures?
The leading iron-beaked vulture was extremely fast, and almost in the blink of an eye, it came to everyone's eyes, and the first thing that caught everyone's eyes was a black claw that shimmered with cold light.
The person in charge was not slow to react, and at the same time as the claw attacked, he flashed to his side, and after dodging the claw, the iron-beaked vulture did not give up, and as soon as he raised his head, the huge beak followed the footsteps of the person in charge.
In the face of the attack of the bird's beak, the person in charge did not panic, his footsteps flashed, and he didn't know what kind of martial arts he used, and the whole person retreated a few meters as if he was teleporting.
At this moment, the leading iron-beaked vulture attack failed again, and it immediately flew into the air a foot high, and its beak opened wide, looking extremely angry.
On that side, the principal who had dodged twice in a row broke out in a cold sweat, seeing that this iron-beaked vulture had fallen and attacked him again, and there were so many warrior guards in front of him, his heart was also very settled, and he couldn't help but feel a little relaxed.
Somehow, Lin Hu had a bad feeling in his heart, looking at the iron beak vulture's wide beak, he couldn't help but think of the leopard-shaped unicorn beast that he fought with for the first time, and subconsciously blurted out: "Be careful!"
