Chapter Twenty-Three: The Protracted War

The battle lasted for more than half an hour, and the corpses of the monsters under the city were stacked layer after layer, but the attack of the monsters did not subside, and they were still one after another, and the monsters that appeared later were obviously much larger.

The knights had not even drunk a sip of water until now, and they were almost at a critical point physically and mentally, but they still gritted their teeth and never stopped moving their hands.

Lista watched the battlefield with a silver metal bow, firing a few shots every once in a while to keep the monsters from getting too close.

The sunset is like blood, reflecting the human face red. The city was also blood-red, and it was real blood, bursting out of the monster's heart.

The smell of blood around the city was fragrant, and the moat had turned into a river of blood, and the floating corpses were floating downstream.

An Jie'er couldn't stand it anymore, the bloody corpses and the fishy smell made her nauseous, and the acid in her stomach couldn't stop surging.

Aisha seemed surprisingly calm, she had not forgotten Lista's teachings that she should concentrate at all times during the battle and not let her own discomfort take her breath.

Xiao Yueyue didn't dare to look at it for a moment, she closed her eyes tightly, hugged An Jie'er's thighs, and didn't even dare to make a sound.

With the passage of time, the attack of the monsters is more ferocious, those more than 20 meters high bull-headed beasts are more and more, if it is closer, a direct wave of the hand can smash a large number of knights on the city wall, but fortunately although they are big, but the defense is not high, before they get close, they are shot through by the ballista, and they fall to the ground without dying, and sometimes they can kill a few small monsters.

The more headache is the lizard beast, the defense is simply invulnerable, and the thick scale armor can't even shake the powerful ballista. They destroyed large forests and appeared under the walls, and with every step they took made a loud noise, and the earth trembled.

Handel fired two arrows with his Condor Bow, but without exception, they had no effect except for a little spark, and the arrows were instantly bounced off without even a single fur injury.

"Alas, it's up to you. Handel laughed at himself, changed his target, and aimed the arrow at the monster with low defense.

Lista raised the silver metal bow and pulled the bowstring, and at this time there was only one arrow on the bowstring, and the blue light on the bow was even worse than before, and the air began to surge, and a majestic aura burst out.

There was a shocking sound of breaking the sky, and the arrow shot out with a long spiral-like trail, hitting the giant lizard's head with lightning speed.

I only heard a loud "boom", after the arrow shot through the head of the giant lizard, because the space was too small, the energy had nowhere to vent, which directly led to the explosion, the entire huge body of the giant lizard was blown over, the head was directly blown up, and a long bloody tongue swirled in the air, and smashed on the city wall with a "snap", leaving a blood mark and falling into the moat.

The next few giant lizards all suffered a similar fate, and without exception they were shot by Lista with a bow and arrow, but it took a little time to gather the power of the wind.

Everyone was thrilling and adrenaline-pumping, but Lista, on the other hand, had a calm face and no mood swings, as if he had done something insignificant.

Su Ke saw all this in his eyes, thinking back to the time when he had wasted a lot of effort to kill a giant lizard, but now looking at people, he easily killed several of them, and he didn't even have to breathe.

"It's amazing, can I be so good?" Aisha exclaimed without exclaiming.

"Yes. Lista replied in surprise.

"I'll try. Aisha's heart was full of excitement, and her eyes were full of light.

The situation is not optimistic, and there are more and more large monsters following them, trampling on the corpses of their companions, howling and approaching step by step.

At this moment, ordinary arrows and crossbows are almost ineffective, and the small monsters rely on the cover of the large monsters, and they can't shoot at all, and even the ballistas are a little powerless, and most of the pressure falls on Lista alone.

Su Ke finally couldn't help it, pulled out the Yaoyue Giant Sword on his back, jumped down, and danced a sword flower in the air, and then his eyes flashed red, and the flames around his body churned out, enveloping his entire body.

Like a god of fire, Su Ke pointed the tip of his sword directly at the giant lizard under him, and the distance of more than twenty meters came in an instant, and Su Ke pierced the crimson moon into the giant lizard's skull.

"Z" smoke rose straight up, and the giant lizard kept shaking its head.

Su Ke didn't care, his hands clenched the hilt of the sword and let out a loud shout, dragging the giant sword all the way down, cutting a huge wound on the entire back of the giant lizard, blood gushing out, but it was soon evaporated into black ash by the scorching flames, and the smoke was filled, and a pungent smell of burnt paste spread.

Su Ke didn't stop, he jumped up again, and ran to a nearby bull-headed beast, this unlucky bull-headed beast was cut off a leg before it could react, and a center of gravity was unstable and fell to the ground, and suddenly a group of people turned on their backs, and with a loud bang, the corpse of the monster on the ground was smashed far away.

Sooke turned and stabbed Yao Yue from the back of the minotaur behemoth into the heart.

The lizardman threw the javelin at Suke, who dodged away, but because of the corpse on the ground, he was unsteady on his feet and tripped out, and when the javelin arrived, Suke grabbed the corpse of a minotaur guard and blocked.

Puff puff, this corpse was instantly pierced into a hedgehog.

Suke lifted the corpse and walked forward quickly, slashing all the javelin-throwing lizardmen before running to the next large monster.

"The attack method is still so simple, and there is no growth at all. Lista looked at Suke, who was fighting under the city, and muttered coldly.

Worried about Suke's safety, Angel looked at the city with a nervous face, forgetting all about her nausea.

Although Su Ke went down to help, and the results were good, it was still a drop in the bucket, and the bull-headed beasts grabbed the small monsters in their hands and threw them at the city walls.

Suddenly, the monster flew like a cannonball and landed on the city wall, and its hideous face glared at the people, and pounced on it with its big mouth open.

The knights drew their swords and fought with the monsters, "They must not be allowed to break through the defenses, or the inhabitants of the city will suffer." ”

Two lizardmen lunged at Lista, screaming and emitting a foul stench.

It was too late to draw the bow and shoot, Lista threw away the silver metal bow, let go of the cold air in both hands, grabbed their necks one by one, and then squeezed them hard, and a sound like a solid break sounded, and the two heads flew out, no blood flowed out, only red crystals frozen into ice.

"Ah......" An Jie'er was also attacked, she protected Xiao Yueyue in her arms, and sat on the ground at a loss and shouted loudly.

With a backhand twist, Lista condensed an ice spear in his right hand, and then threw it, just in time to stab the bull-headed guard who pounced on Angel to the ground.

"Thank you, thank you. Angela was still in shock, still apprehensive about the scene just now.

"I told you this is not the place you should be. Lista's tone was cold, and he took out the boring cold star and slashed the monsters that pounced on him one by one.

"I know, I'm leaving. An Jie'er picked up Xiao Yueyue and was about to leave.

"Wait a minute, you come here. Lista took out the three-meter-long halberd, inserted the handle into the ground, and immediately held up a magic barrier in place, covering Aisha, Angel, and Xiao Yueyue inside.

"Don't come out no matter what happens. Lista instructed.

Aisha responded, "yes, I see. ”

The monster's attack is extremely sharp, and the knights are no opponent at all, only Handel and a few captains can fight against them, but fortunately, they are all wearing heavy armor, and their lives will not be in danger in a short time.

"It's too passive to go on like this, sooner or later you'll be breached, you have to think of a way. Handel turned to Lista for help.

Lista said lightly, "I'll kill all those big guys in the past, so they won't be able to throw monsters over." ”

"Okay, that's it, we'll leave it to us, be sure to hurry, everyone can't hold it anymore. Handel looked anxious.

Lista leaped forward, suspended in the air, the cold star in his hand glowing blue.

"Wind dance, wind spirits. ”

Like a wisp of fresh wind, Lista instantly crossed the necks of the five bull-headed beasts with a trace of afterimage at great speed, slitting their throats one by one.

Before the hapless minotaurs could understand what was going on, they felt like they had lost all their strength, and streams of blood poured out of the wounds on their necks, as if they had opened the floodgates, and in a few moments they fell to the ground.

The results on Suke's side were also good, he was like a flaming chariot, rampage through the hordes of monsters, his attack was unusually violent, wielding the Dawn Moon Greatsword, the sound of explosions continued to sound, flames rose, and large corpses were ignited. It's already a sea of fire, and I don't know how many monsters have been burned into crackling charcoal.

Lista's movements were very fast, and in just a dozen seconds, he cut the throats of all the nearby bull-headed monsters, so that in a short period of time, there was no need to worry about them throwing monsters at the city wall, and the rest was the giant lizard below.

"Ordinary wind elemental magic doesn't work against them, leave it to Su Ke, I'll see how much he's grown during this time. Lista thought in his heart, wielding a boring knife, constantly striking the wind blade, trying to slash the monster from a distance, preventing the monster from taking advantage of the height of the corpse accumulation to cross the defensive line.

Sooke had no idea that he had just been calculated, and now he was going to face six giant lizards alone. Luckily, Lista was able to intercept all the small monsters, and Suke was strong enough to kill them one by one after some time.

"Both of them are strong, and if it weren't for them this time, the inhabitants of the city would have suffered. Handel, who had cleaned up the monsters on the city walls, sighed, his body was already splattered with the blood of the monsters.
