Chapter 426: Obsidian Siege Puppet
Siege monsters such as rock golems are still powerful!
Knowing that the gap in the southern defense line had been opened, Hu Siming and the others couldn't help but have such a thought while their hearts were heavy. Compared to the only sandclaw nest insects on the Western Front, the monsters from the ruins of Nanyue on the Southern Front are almost all siege attacks. Even if Adam had done his best in advance and had arranged forces that were not inferior to those of the Western Front, he still fell short before the last minute.
The camp is not large, and it can even be said that it can be seen through at a glance, and there are only more than 20 students in total.
It's almost impossible to hide such a situation. As the third line calmed down again, the surviving students soon all knew the bad news. For a time, people's hearts fluctuated.
Adam, who was in command of the camp, was also extremely annoyed, and he had already seen the hope of perfectly guarding this wave. Who would have thought that at the end, a rock puppet elite who did not stop broke the stone wall that was only two hundred durable. Having already held two waves of formal attacks, Adam was certainly not reconciled to give up like this. Now he could only hope that the monsters farther away would not arrive so soon.
If you are lucky enough to delay it until daytime, then even if the beast tide finally arrives, you will not have the will to fight without fear of death and go forward one after another. Or, monsters of different types are likely to disperse directly, or even fight within themselves. This kind of thing is uncommon, but it is not without precedent.
"Lord Principal, bless me, you must let me get through!"
Glancing at the dark horizon from afar, Adam prayed in a low voice.
.........
After the midnight battle, the camp was quiet again.
Relying on treasures, skills, and potions, the students' state had already been filled, and at this moment they were standing on the stone wall in twos and threes, worrying about whether there would be another round of attacks. Nearly half of the lost Treant warriors are still busy, and although they don't have the professional construction skills or resources to rebuild the stone wall, they can still move the boulder and plug the gap for the time being. It can only be blocked slightly, but it is better than nothing.
On the other hand, after weighing up a few moments, Adam began to make large-scale adjustments to the armament in the camp.
Under normal circumstances, such a heavy thing must not be moved after it is arranged in advance. Even if there is a change in the middle of the process, it is at most only a targeted adjustment at a certain point. But Adam knew very well that either they would survive the night without a final wave of dawn attacks before dawn, or there would be an even more ferocious counterattack. In its current state, it is impossible for the southern line to hold on, and it will inevitably be defeated by a wave.
Once the rock golems in the ruins of Nanyue storm the camp and wreak havoc, the western and northern fronts will inevitably collapse later.
So, he had to adjust his strength.
Since the pressure on the north wall has always been relatively small, Adam drew two men from the north side and arranged for the western front. Then, Hu Siming, who was particularly prominent, was pulled out of the southern front entirely. Although this would significantly weaken the defenses on the Western Front, Adam had no choice. Either the southern front will collapse first and lead the entire camp to be wiped out, or the forces will be spread out as evenly as possible, and the third line will be supported as long as possible, and the rest will be left to luck.
Again, Adam chose the latter.
"Southern Front, Ah ......"
Hu Siming did not shirk Adam's request, because there was no need for that.
It seems that it is more dangerous to go from the western front to the southern front, but this camp is too small, and once breached, the result will be similar on either line. Therefore, the four of them happily changed the line directly and stepped on the stone wall that was far more miserable than the west.
The stone walls are littered with potholes and twisted cracks, and more than a third of the walls are on the verge of collapse. Seeing this scene, Hu Siming and the others couldn't help but be a little frightened. The squad that was still holding on to this line of defense was relieved to see that reinforcements had been transferred, and they rushed up very enthusiastically, either to inquire about the situation on the Western Front, or to take the initiative to introduce them to the skill characteristics of the monsters on the Southern Front.
This also made Hu Siming further feel the danger of the southern front.
If it weren't for the embarrassment, these elite students would not be so polite and warm to strangers.
Hours were spent in uneasiness.
The night grew darker and darker, and then gradually began to get a little brighter. Although there have been sporadic attacks by small groups of beast tides during this period, the threat is not as good as the initial temptation. It wasn't until dawn was about to break, less than half an hour before dawn, that it was dark again. Many of the students glanced at the countdown, and seemed to have seen the dawn of the nightmare tide, but at this moment, the druid mage on the floating island once again issued a warning of the coming beast tide.
The poignant warnings and the roars of the beasts shattered the luck and illusions in the hearts of the students.
The demonic beasts who were far away from the camp finally rushed here before dawn. Since they were beyond the scope of the Corrupted Lair and the ruins of Nanyue, even the students who had already defended the two waves did not dare to guarantee that the monsters that came must be familiar to them.
On the side of the western defense line, there were faint sounds of exclamation and gasp, and it was estimated that the last wave of beast tide was very violent. Although Hu Siming was a little curious, he couldn't take his attention away, and was completely attracted to the earth-based puppet monsters with heavy steps and thick rock shells.
Their numbers are far less than the tide of beasts on the Western Front that has spread all the way to the end of the darkness, and I am afraid that they will not exceed a hundred. But whether it is body size, breath or individual strength, it far surpasses the former.
"These damn stones, here they are again!"
An elite lv2 student more than a dozen steps away, holding the weapon in his hand, stared intently at the stone Quinn who was striding close in the distance, and let out an angry but cowardly curse. In the previous two battles, he didn't suffer less losses from this monster. They all have rough skin and thick flesh, high blood and high defense, and the perverted damage reduction ability of resistant skin. After killing more than a dozen in a row, this elite student had already sworn that if he could get through tonight, he would not trouble them again this school year.
Forty meters away!
The towers had already fired as soon as they came into range, but in the face of stone golems with six or seven points of armor at every turn, as well as various damage reduction abilities, even if these attack were amazing arrow towers and slingstones, the effect was very mediocre. Soon, the lightest, most advanced Calamity mud golem rushed under the stone wall.
These LV13 dirt puppets are nearly three meters tall and weigh half a ton, to say the least. Since it was an authentic siege puppet, the solid stone walls would tremble slightly with every punch that came in. The stone wall near the gap was even more crumbling under the tremendous force, giving people the feeling that it would collapse with the next blow.
"Attack, come up with your finale means!"
Adam, who personally stood on the battlefield on the southern front, shouted and cheered for himself, and at the same time blessed himself with the state, jumped off the stone wall and fought the scourge mud puppet. Relying on his strongest strength and instantaneous skills, he brazenly stood in front of the gap to block the dirt golem's destruction.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hu Siming and the others also fought.
Yan Shaoou cooperated with the few druid mages to name them one by one, and Hu Siming, Xu Guanghe, and Shi Niu used his magnetic grip to pull the dirt golem to the stone wall and kill it. Although these mud golems have resistant skins and are much weaker in terms of spell damage and control effects, they are not really immune to magic. Thanks to this, Hu Siming's talent Molten Armor effect can still be applied to them, greatly improving the killing efficiency.
The cadets worked together to fight back against the attacking mud puppets. For a while, the defense line also held on. But as these relatively weak mud puppets were killed, the stronger steel sandstone puppets stepped forward, making the students feel the pressure deeply.
This lv15 monster has a powerful passive ability that can reduce any physical damage by 15%!
High armor paired with this skill is enough to make any student vomit blood. Although Hu Siming and the others tried their best to output, they were much less manpower than in the first wave, and they couldn't take care of this side but not that side. Soon, more steel sandstone golems rushed under the stone walls and began to tear down the walls wantonly.
This section of the stone wall, which had been greatly damaged in the midnight attack, has not been fully restored until now. Attacked by these steel sandstone golems with an attack power of up to seventy or eighty points, their durability almost flew down. That speed is far from being comparable to the monsters of the Western Front without siege attacks.
Witnessing this scene with their own eyes, although Hu Siming and the others were anxious, they didn't have any good ideas, so they could only try their best to output and strive to kill one more. But as the shadows in the darkness were separated, the guy who really brought the cadets to the brink of collapse appeared. A giant monster that was five meters tall and raised its arms to be level with the top of the stone wall crashed through the other rock golems.
Every step it takes, it makes a heavy footstep sound.
Obsidian siege golems!
This terrifying monster is pitch black throughout, and if you look closely, you can see that there are circles of purple rock textures on the surface. Despite its sluggish and slow movements, it is a true Golden Lord, with perverted armor and destructive power.
The Discernment Eye activated, giving a message that looked desperate.
【Obsidian Siege Golem】
Rating Lv18, Lord-level Warcraft (Golden Name).
Max HP is 5000, base movement speed is 260, armor is 10, attack damage is 87-103, and health regeneration speed is 10 HP/s. Possess skills: Thunder Stomp, Smash, Spell Negation, Obsidian Constitution.
Thunder Stomper: Activates when there are more than three nearby enemies, dealing 100 Area of Effect damage and 30% movement slow.

Spell Negation: Immunity to a directional spell every 17 seconds, and a chance to be immune to most spell effects at other times.
Obsidian Constitution: Reduces physical/magical damage by 20% and increases max health by 800 points.
Aside from the fact that he is slow in movement and attack speed, and has no dodge due to his large and clumsy size, this staggering lord is simply a combination of the murderous factor. The perverted attack, HP, and damage reduction abilities are literally like a moving fortress. The lv20 Gold Devouring Beast Lord that Zhong Ze and his team led the team to kill, gave people a feeling that was roughly like this.
The best way to run into it is to turn around and walk away...... After all, at its speed, even freshmen may not be able to catch up.
But Hu Siming and they are guarding the camp and have no way out!
