Chapter 752: Arrow Rain Washes the Floor
PS: Although the update is not powerful, I'm embarrassed to ask for votes, but cheeky, I'm also begging, if there are book friends who have tickets, please support, thank you for it.
Even in the bottomless abyss, there are still few low-level and middle-level demons that can fly, plus the sky has always been a place for high-level demons and transcendent fierce battles with great combat power, just the aftermath of the battle is enough for most low-level demons to bear.
Therefore, except for the raid battle that the Demon Dragon Clan made more than ten days ago, compared to the life and death on the city wall, the battle over the Ninth City was a little tepid.
The succubus army with the succubus as the main body has adapted to this intensity of battle, but today, everyone was chasing as always, fighting fiercely and saving their lives, but suddenly, the opponent ran away, clean and neat, so unhappy.
"What's going on?"
The demons of the sky indicate something ...... Confused!
After the trance, most of the middle and low-level succubi instinctively chose to pursue, the bloodthirsty impulse and the urging of the abyssal will made them not care about distinguishing too much, and with a flick of their wings, they let out a strange whistling and swooped down, they had already identified the target, looking forward to the entrance of the blood food.
Then, they were greeted by a 'black cloud' that rose up.
The rain of arrows was like a thunderstorm on a summer night, and there was no way to talk about the word 'dodge', and most demons could only barely hold up their wings, or send one or two low-level spells to block them.
But this can stop one or two, but it can't stop one after another.
Then there is the explosive thorn ball thrown by the catapult, this kind of thorn ball made by the fruit of a special plant does not have much penetrating power, even if it is vigorously thrown out by the catapult, after scattering, it is light and non-lethal.
However, when the fruit is burned by a flame and hit violently, it will explode and produce an extremely strong flame of attachment and burning.
At this moment, the demon in mid-air appeared in a clear polarized state, either like a sieve, screaming and falling, these were not taken care of by the explosive stabbing ball, after smashing to the ground, if you are lucky, you can still take a breath.
Either they are stuck with arrows all over their bodies, and they are burned by the flames, and with the life force of the demons, those who have not fallen to their deaths can still howl and run for a while.
Of course, no matter what, they could not escape the favor of death, and on the ground, there were already warriors who had taken refuge in the corners of the fortress waiting to mend their swords.
If they can't get to the main battlefield, they are already very unhappy, and they will not be soft at this moment.
Of course, there are also some middle and high-level demons who know that the enemy is not good when they leave the battlefield, and as the true elite in the bottomless abyss, the instinct cultivated through countless battles tells them that danger is approaching.
Whether it's activating defensive spells, spreading their wings and flying at breakneck speed, or just opening the portal and preparing to leave, their choices are quick and crisp, but they can't be too fast to already stare at their hunters.
They forgot that without the huge demon army to cover them, they were like the bright moon in the stars, so eye-catching, maybe ordinary arrows could not penetrate their scale armor, but the sharpshooters who had already stared at them with magic arrows let them know what it was to be a desire to die.
Armor-piercing arrows, oblivion arrows, arc arrows, tracking arrows, silent arrows.
Marksmen rarely have the opportunity to play, at this time they can't wait to take out what they have learned in their lives and be able to play with bows and arrows, not to mention using thicker, larger, and fierce single-shot giant crossbows.
In the case of Rain of Arrows, this is the first round, but not the last!
After a rain of arrows, dozens of breaths of rapid loading arrows followed, followed by a second and third rounds......
As soon as the drums fell, three rounds of arrows rained, the sky on the ninth city was clear, and the black and oppressive demon group was no longer gone, but the scorched hellish gray sky was revealed.
This change came so suddenly that the demon army outside the city walls did not react, and the battle in the ninth city so far, this was the first large-scale counterattack of the Viku Legion, and it really took advantage of the surprise. But the loss of the sky is nothing, there are powerful demon lords who have sensed the changes here, and cast a snooping gaze from the void.
The number of demons is the number, and it won't be long before more succubus legions will come, and the battlefield here will be reclaimed sooner or later.
But obviously, since the Viku Legion wants to make trouble, it naturally won't just forget it.
Knock! Knock!
Immediately after, the second drum sounded......
In the ninth city, inside the fortress, both the bow and the catapult have been reloaded.
It's just that, unlike before, the stone throwing has been replaced with a round ball, which can be rolled and crushed after landing, causing greater damage, and the arrow crossbow has been replaced by a high-speed arrow with a tail and a spiral arrow, which is not too lethal, but the trajectory is stable and the flight distance is long.
Then, with the exception of those who had to stay, most of the pros took their longbows and ran to the fortress, and they didn't care about the dirty ground and the corpses of demons, they just lay on the ground, pushed with their feet, drew strings with both hands, took arrows, and pointed diagonally to the sky.
Archery is a combat skill that needs to be practiced for a long time, and archers even spend their lives trying to understand the mysteries of it, if you think that these professionals are proficient in archery, it is impossible, but at this moment, they don't need to have archery at all.
As long as there is a bow, an arrow, and strength, the number of them is enough.
This time, the position of the arrow is no longer 90 degrees upward, but an inclined angle, pointing obliquely to the sky, looking at the direction, all the crossbow arrows will cross an arc and fall directly outside the city wall.
This is the ...... before the decisive battle Rain of arrows washes the floor!
On the city wall, in the shadows, ten strong professionals stared at the war drums in front of them as if they were looking at the enemy, their eyes were red, their hands and feet seemed to be with all their strength, hammering desperately, sweat flowing down their sturdy bodies, and the ground was already wet.
However, they had no intention of stopping, until one of the heralds shouted, and their fists stopped in front of the war drums.
As a result, the second drum fell, and the black and oppressive 'dark clouds' rose again.
The screams and buzzing sounds of extreme speed mixed into a soul-grabbing sound, and outside the city walls, the demon army that was already fighting for their lives only felt that the surrounding darkness was dark, and the light seemed to be deprived, and then, they instinctively looked at the sky, and what met their eyes were countless arrows that were getting bigger and bigger.
Aggressive aggressive!!
The sound of the fine flesh entering the flesh and the suppressed and short howl were intertwined, like a death song, however, the first round of arrow rain seemed a little monotonous after all, so, after dozens of breaths, the second round of arrow rain took off.
The clouds rose again, and the sky was dark again.
Immediately after the third round!
Round 4!
Round 5!
......
At this time, if you stand on the city wall and look at it, you can find that it is obvious that there is a clever marksman, this arrow rain washing the ground is actually very regular, the first three rounds of landing are all outside the city wall, this is a dividing point, and the demons in this area are almost impossible to escape.
Then, since the fourth round, the rain of arrows has expanded outward, one round is farther than the other, until the eighth round, because of the distance, a lot of arrow rain falls, and the power is no longer enough, at this time, most of the kills are low-level demons, and the real middle and high-level demons can react and quickly escape.
In fact, after all, not all professionals are marksmen, and they can't take people's heads from 10,000 meters away like Nuuk.
If these demons don't flee, they can rely on their own defenses or defensive spells to resist the rain of arrows, but no demon dares to do so when the rain of dense black pressure 'dark clouds' presses down.
Demons are also living beings, they have dense phobia and will instinctively escape, their escape is understandable, but what the battlefield is most afraid of is the rout of a swarm, because of their departure, countless demons are vying to follow.
Then, the entire demon army turned into a wave of rout, and in the end, the rain of arrows seemed to be grabbing the demon army's ass and kicking again.
It seems like a hilarious scene, but it's happening.
