288 Super Ice Spear
The distance between Duke and this Ice Demon General should be close to a thousand meters from a general visual point of view, if it weren't for the existence of such a thing as a telescope, and the fact that there is no industrial pollution in this world, the starlight at night is really brilliant, otherwise it would be impossible to tell the difference.
The distance of one thousand meters is not long, but it is definitely a distance that can be called a moat in the era of cold weapons. The peak distance of the medieval English longbow is also about 300 meters, the Roman torsion spring ballista is 400 meters, and the 1200-pound winch crossbow at the end of the Middle Ages has a 500-meter projectile range, which may be a little lethal, but in fact, this ultra-long-distance projectile basically depends on fate.
In ancient China, large bed crossbows such as the Three Gong Crossbow and the Giant Crossbow had a range similar to that of medieval ballistas. If you add a little exaggeration and luck, the extreme attack distance of the Cold Weapon Era should not exceed 700 meters, even if it is a projectile that is not lethal, it will not exceed this limit.
Duke is a thousand meters away from this ice demon general, you must know that relying on the huge power of the bed crossbow, it is only a range of five hundred meters to survive, he is a humanoid ice demon, projecting an ice spear, even according to the javelin world distance of 98.48 meters in later generations, Duke will double him, it is only a few hundred meters away.
So Duke didn't make the slightest dodge move, wanting to see if the Ice Demon General had a problem with his head and actually made such a meaningless move.
But soon Duke felt that something was wrong, because the speed of the ice spear was so right that it completely exceeded the feeling of the javelin projected by later athletes, and even Duke could hear the sound of breaking through the air!
"My lord, be careful!"
Fei Duo shouted at this time, and then raised the small shield he carried with him, directly in front of Duke. This was followed by a muffled "thud", and then Duke saw some ice crumble to the ground.
Suddenly faced with this situation, Duke's heart was "groaning", the world doesn't know if Newton exists, otherwise it feels like his coffin board will not be able to hold it down!
The range of an ice spear is close to a kilometer, even if the ice demon's body is far stronger than a human, but this is a bit too exaggerated. Duke now understood why the human bows and crossbows were completely scrapped, and even the Holy See, which had an absolute advantage in magic, gave up this long-range attack method and turned to the full development of magic.
With this kind of open ice spear range, bows and crossbows have a fart use!
Fei Duo's face was also pale at this time, if he had been slower just now, maybe this ice spear would have pierced the lord as well.
"My lord, this ice spear has magic attached to it, so it can't be treated with common sense. For your safety, I recommend that you still stand under the city walls. ”
Hearing the name magic again, Duke was extremely unhappy. If this weren't a wizarding world, then with the semi-industrial mass-produced Storm Musket, Duke would be able to happily pretend and expand his army.
As a result, it seems that the musket team that I was excited about before is almost the same as the burning stick team, and the attack distance of 100 meters and 1,000 meters is really too much different!
"Fei Duo, if just one ice spear scares me into hiding behind, then where will I put my lord's face?"
After Duke said this, he directly took out the telescope and stood in front of Fei Duo, he didn't believe that the Ice Demon General's attack method of projecting ice spears could be like machine guns.
At this time, Duke raised the telescope in his hand and looked towards the ice magic array in the distance. Although it was not clear to see the specific expression on his face under the moonlight, Duke had a vague feeling that this Ice Demon General was very proud at the moment.
This sense of grievance of suffering a loss and having no way to fight back made Duke feel very uncomfortable. But at this moment, Hera came up behind Duke, as if she understood what he was thinking, smiled at him and said, "What's the matter, do you want to fight back?"
"Hera, you really know me. ”
"Of course, if you want to fight back, I can do you a favor. ”
"How can I help?"
Just as Duke said this, a mysterious smile appeared on Hera's face, and then she saw a white light suddenly appear in the sky, shining towards the Ice Demon General. Almost as soon as the light appeared, an ice shield appeared in front of the Ice Demon General, blocking the light.
However, this was only temporary, and I saw that this ray of light was like a laser, directly dissolving the Ice Demon General's Ice Demon, and then continuing to melt the Ice Armor on his body. It's just that a dark blue fighting aura also appeared on the body of the Ice Demon General in this world, which directly offset this white light.
Although the magic light was canceled out, it could be seen that the Ice Demon General was a little flustered, which was completely different from the feeling of sitting on a tall horse before.
Duke was so happy to see this, and sure enough, this is still a magical world. It seems that in addition to promoting his own industrial system in the future, he must find a way to get a few more magicians, otherwise he will really have no power to fight back in the face of this situation.
"Hera, I really didn't see that you still have this hand. ”
Duke complimented a little excitedly, because Hera rarely shoots under normal circumstances, and she never said how good she was. Today, this hand was revealed, and it was an instantaneous magic, and Duke felt that Hera's strength was even stronger than he imagined.
In the face of Duke's praise, Hera just smiled faintly: "This is just a little trick, it can't change the overall situation, if you want to really defeat the ice demon, you still need to rely on you." ”
After Hera said this, she left Duke's side lightly and returned to the previous witch array. As Hera said, this little spell basically does not change the overall situation in the slightest except for recovering a little scene.
Soon Duke saw the formation of the Ice Demons change, and a team of about two thousand people walked out of the queue, and then quickly moved in the direction of Storm Castle, and even as the distance got closer, these Ice Demons used to use the running position.
When he saw this scene, Duke's previous pretended relaxed posture disappeared in an instant, and instead roared at the Storm Army soldiers beside him: "Storm Army!
At the same time, Alan and Fei Duo also began to desperately greet the soldiers on the city wall, because they both knew that the real attack was about to begin. You must know that the number of ice demons' tentative attacks that made Stormcastle unbearable was only one or two hundred, and now it starts at two thousand!
