Chapter 198: The Battle of Irion [4]

The team's progress was not as smooth as expected, although it was already possible to vaguely see the large group of defenders under the target pillar of light, but how to get past it became a problem. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

The people who activated the summoning circle had already thought about how to defend it, and after a large number of monsters were summoned, they guided them to destroy the buildings around the pillar of light, widening the defensive field of view to facilitate the defensive arrangement, which made the people of the major guilds who wanted to approach the pillar of light had to go down to the street to get closer, but now there are a lot of monsters standing on the street.

What's more, the number of monsters is constantly increasing, and the strength of the monsters that appear in the pillar of light is no longer only second-order primary or intermediate, and some monsters close to the third order have also appeared, sensing the threat to them of the guardian totem used by the demon hunters on the roof to open the way, these third-order monsters did not hesitate to move closer to this side.

"Stop defending against monster onslaught! Wait for the government's artillery support!"

The Demon Hunter at the forefront naturally saw those third-order monsters coming straight to this side, so he simply stopped and began to defend.

There are too many monsters on the street, and there are only about thirty people on their side, and it's not realistic to want to rush in like this, everyone's physical strength is also limited, especially in the range of this energy retardation spell, most of the people's elemental energy that they communicate with each other can't be called, and they have lost a lot of attack means before they start fighting,

Most of the next battles are pure physical collisions, and the consumption of physical strength is already huge, and if too much physical strength is wasted on the monsters below, it will be very detrimental to the breakthrough later, so you must wait here for the artillery support of the Flanders government army.

Originally, these cannons were not used, because the group of people in the Mage Guild could take on this kind of cleaning task, but unfortunately in this situation, they were surrounded by a large group of monsters, let alone came out to help clean up the streets, so they could only entrust this task to the Flanders government army.

It's just that the artillery support in place, although it was something that had been said before the war, did not appear for a long time. After all, it is heavy artillery, and it is not a gun in the hands of those soldiers that can be carried around, and it takes a lot of time just to load and transport, and it is impossible to say that it will be in place immediately.

In addition, most of the artillery was originally placed in the military camp in the outer ring city, and it is not that there are no in the middle ring city, but there are only a few guns, and there are three pillars of light here, so that the artillery support is better than nothing, and it is possible to be discovered by the other party.

Therefore, the three major guilds can only stand still, defend in place, and wait for artillery support to arrive before they can really charge and attack the enemies around the pillar of light.

And before that, Watson first had to deal with the second-order high-level monster in front of him, its appearance was probably a combination of praying mantis and humans, let's call it a mantis monster, the size of the human being combined with the mantis's scythe, wings and armor, several impacts, even Watson had to admit that it was quite sharp in melee penetration.

Raising his twin knives to hold the mantis monster's two scythes, the power from the opponent's arms was not much different from the power that Watson could exert in his normal state now.

Muscle explosion activates and strengthens both arms!

The muscles on the forearm swelled suddenly, and Watson wanted to use this sudden burst to overwhelm the mantis monster, so as to facilitate the development of his subsequent movements, who knew that the mantis monster actually had a back hand, and at the same time as the strength on his side increased, the dark green insect wings behind it quickly began to flapp, providing it with a stronger recoil force.

Twin Blades: Wind Slashing!

The two sides fought evenly in strength, Watson took advantage of the power generated by the mantis monster's wings to press the double handle forward slightly, bent sideways, dragged the double blades to give up the scythe with the mantis monster and attacked its abdomen, the attack was successful, this attack transformation directly left two not deep and shallow scars on the mantis monster's abdomen.

The mantis monster's reaction was not slow, sensing that his abdomen was attacked, and the scythes on his arms were also swung towards Watson's neck, who was bending over, wanting to kill him with a fatal blow, Watson quickly withdrew his knife and held the scythe not far from his neck.

At this time, Dumpling, who had been watching from the side, suddenly joined the battle, jumped up in huge size, and took advantage of the mantis monster's attention to the confrontation with Watson, and easily hit the mantis monster's triangular head with his right claw, and his eye was injured so that the mantis monster queen retreated to the edge of the eaves.

Even if the current dumpling can't use its own dark energy, its own physical strength has completely reached the strength of a second-order demonic beast, although it didn't directly slap the mantis monster to death, but it also left three deep scars on its skull.

Watson naturally won't let go of this great opportunity, and he stepped forward again with his hands on the dual blades, this time it was no longer an ordinary dual knife flow skill, but a double knife flow flash that he had only recently mastered! This skill was finally officially integrated into his combat system after Watson's familiarity during this time, and Watson's dual knife melee combat was also taken to a higher level.

The crossed knives flashed, the sound of flesh and blood splitting sounded as scheduled, and the mantis monster with a heavy blow to the head was really difficult to organize a decent defense in the face of this sharp attack, almost at the moment when the knife light was lit, its neck had been cut off, except for the scythe of both arms subconsciously waved, but there was no more movement, and it fell straight to the roof.

One-on-one can't be solved quickly, two-on-one Watson is still quite confident, Dumpling as a Warcraft partner who signed an equal contract with him, the two now have a very tacit understanding in battle, just like Watson didn't use mental power to communicate at all just now, Dumpling automatically came up to help him solve this mantis monster.

Turning around and lifting the twin knives to help Viola solve the monster she faced, this monster naturally had no chance of surviving under the siege of the two, in fact, even Viola alone had already played it around, and her excellent combat dodge skills gave her the upper hand in this one-on-one battle.

Bang!bang!biu...... biu......

At the same time, the sound of cannonballs whistling came from behind the roof where the demon hunters stood, and one after another black narrow cannonballs flew from the air in the distance and fell on the street around the pillar of light.

Even the position of the three major professional guilds has been affected, but fortunately, a few non-commissioned powerhouses have forcibly changed the attack trajectory of many cannonballs with their spiritual power, leading them to the street, and one by one the cannonballs explode in the monster group, which is a direct confrontation between human technological civilization and barbarism!

The result was obvious, the covered attack of the formed artillery unit against the monsters was not at all something that this group of monsters with the highest level of only three orders could contend with, and several successive salvos almost bombarded all three streets around the Mage Guild! When the smoke cleared, all that was left was a large area of flesh and blood!

In order to ensure that Irion does not fall, the Flanders government is really ruthless this time, and it is not everyone who has the courage to carry out artillery fire covering strikes in their main city, Watson estimates that even the underground forces around the three pillars of light did not expect that the government really dared to use artillery troops to carry out crazy attacks.

There is no doubt that these shelling will bring extremely large losses to the Flender family, but if you think about it, if you don't do this, and let the number of those monsters take shape, will the losses on this side be so small? I'm afraid that the area damaged will be even larger.

Rather than letting the monsters destroy this place and destroy other places, it is better to forcibly destroy them on their own side, and by the way, the monsters that appear now will also be directly smashed to make room for the surprise attack, which should be the idea of the top echelons of the Flanders government.

The covering blow of the cannon fire did not destroy the place where the pillar of light was, because the circle there had been protected by a group of underground professionals with various things, and the two layers of enchantments that had been arranged in advance blocked all the impact.

"Do it!"

The demon hunter at the front of the team roared, jumped down from the roof, and while the monsters had not yet refilled the area that had been bombarded by artillery fire, he quickly rushed to the location of the target pillar of light, and Watson and Viola naturally followed, also jumped off the roof, and charged towards the pillar of light behind everyone.

If you look down from the air, you will notice that Watson's running position has actually been in the middle and late part of the team all along, the reason is very simple, he is collecting the souls of these monsters that have just been killed on the ground! Although the soul energy has been lost a lot of time due to the time consumed by several rounds of artillery fire, there are many monsters here!

As soon as he jumped onto the street, Watson could feel a huge amount of soul energy surging towards him, so he deliberately slowed down his pace, so that he could absorb more of these soul energy, in fact, if there was enough time, Watson would definitely stop here and absorb all the soul energy before moving forward.

But this kind of behavior is obviously unrealistic, it won't take long for the monsters that appear in the pillar of light to fill up all of this side, and what if Watson absorbs enough soul energy at that time? Without the protection of the entire team, he will have little chance of surviving if he falls into the crowd of monsters.

Isn't the ultimate goal of absorbing soul energy to make oneself stronger and live longer? Watson still knows what he should do in this choice, and only by following the actions of the large army can he better ensure his safety.

However, even if he was absorbing while running, Watson could still clearly feel that he was constantly getting stronger! Not only physically but also at the soul level, even the guardian totem in his body was constantly absorbing foreign soul energy to improve himself!

Non-Commissioned ...... It's coming soon!(To be continued.) )
