NO.0212 ENGAGEMENT
If it had been changed to another place, for such a fool who was not long-sighted, Yang Long would have directly tortured and killed him. But now that he is unfamiliar with life and is under the threat of the undead, Yang Long doesn't want to spoil a big thing because of a small unbearable situation and bring unnecessary trouble to himself.
And he once went crazy once, these low-level soldiers may not know, but the high-ranking personnel of Dalong County must know, in case the professionals in the city misunderstand, then even if Yang Long gives it a go, he will definitely be destroyed by humanity.
Except for Ray, everyone else either cherishes their own lives or has a certain military literacy, and of course they will not follow Henry's blind coaxing. After a few glances at each other, they all sat down on the ground one after another, seizing the time to adjust their state or organize their weapons and equipment.
"Are you all idiots?" After seeing Yang Long's reaction, the anxious young man was furious, and when he saw the same attitude of the others, Henry looked at these teammates as if he didn't know them, and scolded: "A group of guys who are afraid of death, you just watch"
"Captain! Henry is right, since there is no undead attack here for the time being, we can go down and help first" Ray was undoubtedly much more tactful than Henry, and when he saw that the residents of the city were killed one after another, he softened his tone and persuaded with a slight pleading.
It's a pity not to say that it's Yang Long, even several other professionals are like old monks sitting still, closing their eyes and recuperating without opening their eyelids. The two young men wasted a lot of saliva when they sang and joined together, but they did not see another professional rise up to answer the call.
Just when the anger in Henry's eyes grew stronger and stronger, and the hand that was tightly gripping the hilt of the sword was jumping, he couldn't help but want to attack Yang Long. In the woods about a kilometer outside the western city wall, a large army of the undead appeared, and they attacked without warning.
Woo!
The loud sound of the military horn came from the north of the area in charge of Yang Long's team, about seven hundred meters away, where it was the center of the western city wall, and the command post at the front of the battlefield, and an eleventh-order guardian warrior was a temporarily appointed officer.
Five professionals with strength from the eighth to the tenth rank are each in charge of ten squads, forming a battle group every 500 meters. Yang Long's battle group is south of the center of the west wall, and the third team of the second battle group is responsible for the defense of the city wall fifty meters from north to south.
Silently taking out the shield and long sword, Yang Long turned into a guardian warrior without armor in the strange eyes of the team members, this action made the two young men who were about to take advantage of the battle and quietly push Yang Long off the city wall were a little overwhelmed.
Although it has only been a few months since they have been in contact with the inheritance of professionals, the two young people still know the basic principles of common sense. For magicians, being close to a melee professional is almost equivalent to no resistance, and the two of them are planning to take advantage of Yang Long's unpreparedness and kill him, and the position of captain will naturally fall to them.
As long as there is a collective, there will be management and being managed, even if it is threatened by the undead. And the two of them, who were originally waiting for the opportunity with great interest, found that Yang Long had suddenly changed from a magician to a warrior, and they couldn't help but make them not nervous.
"Humph!" Yang Long had already noticed the thoughts of the two young men, but he pretended not to know. Now I take out my weapon and shield, but I just don't want to expose the existence of my energy, after all, if you fight with magic alone, you can't continue to fight even with flame magic.
And in the process of fighting, Yang Long had time to find an opportunity to kill two young men who were not long-eyed without showing a trace. Now, with the wishes of the two, let them continue to be arrogant for a while.
Knock! knock! knock
Eight fifty-meter-tall Roshan strode towards the city wall, and behind them were hundreds of ant-type undead, and dozens of flying undead flew in the sky, constantly oppressing and impacting to attract firepower, trying to cover the safe arrival of ground troops.
"Ready, put!"
In the north and south directions of the city wall, there were several shouts, with the order issued more than 30 siege crossbows, and at the same time shot out crossbow arrows with a diameter of half a meter, almost whirring ~ when the sound of breaking the air just sounded, most of the crossbow arrows had already hit the target.
Puff puff
In the face of the well-prepared city defense troops, nearly half of the eight Roshan were wiped out in an instant, and the powerful penetrating power of the crossbow arrows not only easily pierced their bodies that were more than ten meters thick, but also continued to fly ahead to break the undead creatures into pieces of flesh, and finally burrowed into the soil, leaving a deep hole.
"Hey, it's so powerful?!" Yang Long gasped, and looked fixedly at the junction between his defense area and another area, where there was a huge siege crossbow about the size of a tank: "The penetration power is definitely more than that of a cannonball!"
Under such terrifying firepower, the super-rank powerhouse Yang Long can't be estimated, but the twelfth-order powerhouse is absolutely unable to resist, even if the armor and shield are enough to resist, the strength attached to the crossbow arrow will instantly smash the professional's internal organs.
"Maybe only a twelfth-order guardian warrior can barely resist such an attack, right?" Hiding his astonishment without revealing a trace, Yang Long's awe of this world deepened a lot again: "The social system that has developed for nearly 10,000 years really can't be underestimated. ”
When he was studying history before, Yang Long had some doubts, since the territory of the Lordaeron Kingdom was so huge, and there were many high-level and top-level powerhouses among the travelers, then the aristocratic class in the eastern Lordaeron, which had just emerged, would not be able to resist their sacking at all.
Although there is a border legion, as long as these strong people shoot and change places, it is estimated that many nobles will be harmed. However, in fact, in the past five hundred years, only a few nobles have suffered misfortune, and the other tens of thousands of nobles are not in any danger.
Now it seems that Yang Long's doubts finally have a more reasonable answer, since Dalong County has such a powerful weapon, then there must be many similar weapons in other noble territories, maybe the power and number are different, but they can definitely pose a deadly threat to the strong below the super rank.
"This can be regarded as the science of the wizarding world, right?" Shaking his head vigorously, forgetting the strange thoughts floating in his mind, Yang Long once again focused his attention on the undead creatures, and at this time, the undead also began to counterattack.
After such a heavy loss, the undead army remained unmoved, and quickly approached the city wall with its huge base. Although the siege crossbow was terrifying, it was very slow to reload, and by the time the second bolt was fired, the army of the undead had already approached within 100 meters.
Sizzle
After the eight Roshan fell one after another, the remaining twenty or thirty ant-shaped undead creatures became the vanguard. But before the next wave of attacks arrived, the undead creatures spat out large swarms of insects towards the professionals on the city walls.
The vertical walls were completely flat for the swarms, and the defenders without mages could only use a burning resin to sprinkle it underneath the walls, killing most of the swarms, but there were still a few beetles rushing onto the battlements and eating away at the low-level professionals.
At the same time, a slightly smaller spider undead suddenly emerged from the ground, spitting out a large amount of gray-white spider silk towards the city wall. Spider silk as thick as an adult's arm burrowed deep into the wall like a steel cable, and countless spider silks crossed each other, creating a gentle slope in just half a minute.
The place where these spider silks were nailed into the city wall was exactly three or four meters below the battlements, and such a distance was not necessarily possible even with a long-handled war spear. And the flame mages who have the most restraint effect on this are less than ten in the entire Talon County, and there is not a single one on the western wall.
At the same time, the flying undead in the sky also broke through towards the city, and the professionals who guarded this section of the area, after only maintaining order and blocking for a few breaths, were scattered in the chaos and started a fierce melee with the undead army.
A large number of baboon-like undead creatures also took advantage of the small number of flying creatures to contain the defenders, and quickly attacked the ramp woven by spider silk towards the city wall. It was just a matter of looking at the face, and the defenders on the city walls sacrificed hundreds.
The walls of Talung County are less than 30 meters high, but they are 10 meters thick, which means that there is plenty of room to dodge and move. And the fortunate thing is that the undead army attacking the western wall is not led by a dead warrior, so although the overall rank is higher than that of the defenders, because they do not have the wisdom to advance on the whole line, they give the defenders a chance to relieve.
The buildings near the city walls were fortified with a floor converted from houses, and a large number of professionals who were serving as reserves were waiting in this place. After receiving the order for reinforcements, a group of professionals poured into the city, and finally secured the precarious occupation.
However, although there is no danger of losing for the time being, the defenders are also fighting very hard, and the rank of the undead creatures is higher, and the physical strength base is comparable to that of fine iron armor. However, the weapons of most professionals are nothing more than non-standard imitation swords, which cannot cause rapid attrition of the undead.
It is precisely for this reason that after the initial melee, the battle situation of the defending sergeants of each section of the city wall has become stalemate. And only in the fifty-meter area where Yang Long was located, the death rate of undead creatures was almost five times faster than that of other places.
Among them, the undead who were killed by the twenty average third-order lower team members only reached one-fifth of the undead who were destroyed, while the other four-fifths of the undead creatures all died under Yang Long's sharp blade, but they did not bring him the slightest damage, at best, they could only smear Yang Long's clothes with a little filth.
