Chapter 192: Three Days (10)
"What's going on?" the enemy commander screamed.
"Among the more than a hundred war beasts left in the workshop by the Beast King Gate, there are ten crypt spiders, and those cobwebs should be theirs. As for the rain of arrows, it is easy to understand. The opponent's bow and arrow phalanx can react quickly enough, or prepare a second batch of bow and arrow phalanx. It's just that the black goo, maybe it's the Workshop's secret weapon!"
If Tang Dou was next to him, he would definitely tell him that that thing was the military commander of the Howling Wind Pirate Regiment that once roamed the Thousand Waves Sea, the sticky ship bullet invented by Ye Tianlong, as long as it was glued, there was no special antidote to dissolve, and it was almost impossible to tear it apart with brute force. If you are covered in the face, then even the Hercules of the Elephant Clan will have a cup.
In fact, more than two-thirds of the nearly three hundred Bronze Soul Cultivators were put into the Sticky Ship Bullet. Tang Dou has a soft spot for anything that is a yin person, and the sticky boat bomb has also made many meritorious contributions in his hands, so how can he not use such a sharp weapon in the workshop?
And after several improvements, the current sticky ship bomb not only has stronger viscosity, but also adds a paralyzing medicine that Sha Yunyue personally blends in, not to mention that it is stuck and can't move, and the soul cultivators below the silver will fall into a short-term numb state of the whole body if they are touched a little.
It won't be too long, but on the battlefield, even if it's just for a second, it kills.
"Damn, I've never heard of such weird things in the Workshop before?What are those?Why do our people stop moving at the slightest touch?" the enemy commander scolded angrily.
"Judging from the situation just now, this sticky substance is quite sticky, and after being glued in sufficient quantities. It's impossible to break free by brute force, and don't forget that Nicholas's woman is a top healer. If I were Nicholas, I would have added toxins like paralysis to this thing. The fact that a few people just now only got a little bit of it but still fell off is enough to prove it!" the mysterious man slowly analyzed.
"As for why you say we don't know? Actually, that's normal. Nicholas is a man who doesn't play his cards by the grain. If he really only had those things on the table, how dare he be so arrogant?"
"Your Excellency, which side are you?" the enemy commander looked at the mysterious man with dissatisfaction.
The mysterious man smiled indifferently: "Your Excellency, I am just an advisor. I'm not on either side. And a calm and objective observer is more suitable to be your advisor, isn't that why you came to me?"
The enemy commander snorted heavily, no longer dwelling on this issue, and it was not good to go out of the division. He knew that the morale of the people below was a little lacking, but he still had enough troops in his hands, and he was still confident that he could break through the defense of the workshop.
He brought five thousand people this time. Although nine out of ten people are only bronze-level, less than 100 silver-level, and gold-level is only ten. But these people are all armed, he believes in his own resourcefulness, he believes in his own ability. And he has a killer weapon, and he believes that the Workshop will not be able to stop his attacks.
But he doesn't need a big win, he has to win beautifully. That's how he gets what he wants.
After a short silence, he called his henchmen and whispered a few words.
Moments later, the assault on the north side of the Workshop began. More than a thousand bronze souls were recultivated into a shield array, led by ten silver-level masters, and began to move forward.
No tusked pigs were used. There is no quick rush, there is just a step-by-step camp. Steady progress. Not for speed, only for results.
"Sure enough, it's this trick!" Gu Suke had already expected the other party's plan: "Inform Yabu." Let him deal with it according to plan three, and ask that one to prepare, it's time for him to show his skills!"
At the main entrance to the west, after an attack from the north, the layout began to be rearranged as the crowd parted and several small trebuchets were pushed out.
It can be seen that these trebuchets were made not long ago, and many of the corners have not been polished, and they are quite rough. This is also normal, the major forces in Kinunu City are afraid of being knocked on the door, trebuchets such as big killing weapons are absolutely forbidden, who dares to hide a few, then just wait for several major forces to jointly come to the door to find trouble.
So when you want to use it, you can only rush it. Rush products are not satisfactory in terms of power or durability, and it can only be said that it is better than nothing.
"Do you use equipment? This is what our workshop is best at!Inform the brothers on the left and right, they can move!" Gu Suke calmly ordered.
Than instruments?
Don't you know that one of the benefits of the crossing party is all kinds of otherworldly theories?
As a high-martial world, the Thousand Souls Spirit Realm is quite slow in the direction of scientific and technological development, after all, there are many things that can be done by manpower, who would bother to study mechanized things? Especially in many cases, the things that are researched at a great cost are not as good as a dozen or so death squads spawned by special means, so no one studies these things.
For example, guns, the reason why Tang Dou, a guy with no lower limit, doesn't toss firearms is because he is not a master of military industry, he is just a lover of earth bombs, and the guns that can toss out the most powerful are just to scare people.
Enough C4 and incendiary bombs do have good lethality, but they can be used to deal with stupid people like the living dead, and they can be used to deal with prepared soul cultivators, so how to throw them out and how to throw them back. With Tang Dou's technology, it is not possible to accurately control the explosion time of these things.
And a bronze soul cultivator, with preparation, can also send three or five C4 and incendiary bombs thrown at him into the air or even push them back in one second.
Therefore, C4 and incendiary bombs can only be used as traps and ambushes, and cannot be used as main battle weapons.
If he only considered it from this aspect, Tang Dou would not have studied any more weapons of war, but he saw the other side of the problem.
What is the truly powerful weapon of war? It is not a magic weapon, nor is it a nuclear missile, but something that is "unexpected."
Tang Dou knew that his advantage was that he had brought some theories from his previous life that were different from this world.
For example, a pulley bow. If this thing is really about power and the like, it is impossible to be much stronger than the recurve bow in the Thousand Souls Spirit Realm, because this world is except for freaks like Tang Dou. Except for the Sky Owl, which automatically increases the pull without an upper limit. Two-thirds of the power of the arrows fired by all other archers comes from the Spirit Power bonus.
So the pulley bow doesn't have any advantage in terms of power. So what are its advantages? It is more stable and more labor-saving. More mechanized and therefore more accurate.
Why can't people in this world think of that? Because they don't have that concept at all. They want to increase the power of the bow, in addition to improving their own cultivation, that is, using runes, or better materials, who would think of installing a few wheels on the bow body, using the pulley effect to increase stability and save power?
Another example is C4 and incendiary bombs, of course it is not good to use them directly to attack, but this thing will definitely not be discovered by soul cultivators through soul power induction and rune search before it is launched. Used for sneak attacks, ambushes, that is invincible.
Therefore, for Tang Dou, what really gave him confidence was the theories brought from his previous life - the idea that they were completely different from this world, but they could shine in this world - this alienated theory also has a popular name: crossing the party's welfare.
Several strange-looking trebuchets were deployed. These things looked like a large spider with an unfolded body, and the dazzling back on its back looked like a trebuchet, but on it hung a bowstring made of several thick animal tendons, so that it looked like a bed crossbow.
After this weird thing unfolded. The left and right brothers in charge of the command of this thing immediately gave the order to open fire.
The personnel in control of the strange thing immediately began to quickly shake a turntable underneath the thing, each of which was rotated by three strong men - these men were only ordinary people with a little bit of cultivation. It is not possible to rush directly to the front line, but it is definitely no problem to work hard in the back.
As the turntable turned, the odd thing immediately began to work.
Balls the size of a human head were thrown into the sky - this thing turned out to be a repeating trebuchet. Although the things launched cannot be too heavy, the most can be less than ten catties, and it is certainly not powerful to throw stones. But who said that if a trebuchet drops it, it must be a stone?
Three repeating trebuchets were still preparing for the other party's trebuchet. It had already projected hundreds of head-sized things and smashed them in one go.
The enemy was also startled at first when he saw such a big scene, but soon realized that the projected thing was not heavy. Each one weighs about ten catties, and it's no problem for such a thing to condense the soul power and resist directly, no matter how much it is, it's useless.
What's more, these things are soft, and they will break when they are smashed, and then countless dust will fly out, choking people and coughing.
"Damn, what is this?" the enemy commander waved to drive away the dust that was drifting in.
"It seems to be powder milled by Eminem. Well, there's a little bit of something else. This taste seems to be ...... What is the workshop going to do?" the mysterious man is very powerful, and through the little dust that floated over, he was able to analyze the main ingredients inside.
"They're going to choke us to death with this, hmph, that's naïve!" the enemy commander laughed, his face disdainful.
"Your Excellency, don't underestimate Nicholas, don't underestimate the Workshop, they have too many secrets. I think the other side is going to use a powerful weapon. It's better to have someone retreat first!" the mysterious man said in a deep voice.
"Your Excellency, I just think that you should not underestimate our own strength!" the enemy commander snorted dissatisfiedly, turned his head and ordered: "Speed up for me and smash the door of that workshop open." I don't believe they can choke us to death with a pile of dust!"
"Your Excellency, if you no longer need my reference, then I take my leave!" the mysterious man was a little angry.
The enemy's commander was somewhat jealous of the mysterious man, and when he saw that the other party was angry, he thought for a second: "Then I'll let the wind attribute soul cultivator blow away these dusts!"
The mystery man also knew that it was impossible to push the other party too hard, after all, he was only an advisor, not a commander: "Okay!
The enemy commander immediately called dozens of wind-attribute soul cultivators to the front line, ready to blow away the dust. But these soul cultivators soon discovered that it was a completely windless night, and the weather was a bit muggy. Originally, they didn't care about this, but somehow, suddenly their hearts were alarmed.
Then, the fear became a reality.
Just after the dust covered the width of one or two hundred meters of the entire frontal battlefield to the west of the workshop, an explosive arrow flew out of the workshop, and the arrow flew straight to the trebuchet that was ready to be launched, and immediately the heavy shield hand blocked it.
It was a thickened shield, and an explosive arrow could not shake it.
However, this explosive arrow is only the beginning.
Taking the center of the explosion of that explosive arrow as the origin, the area shrouded in dust detonated immediately after the explosive arrow, and the entire frontal battlefield was one or two hundred meters wide and dozens of meters deep, and three hurried trebuchets, two or three hundred soul cultivators in the middle were instantly submerged by the explosion.
Then, the fireball that rose into the sky was thrown more than a hundred meters, and the powerful shock wave shook the bamboo wall of the workshop more than two hundred meters away, and several unlucky workshop sentries were rushed off the wall and fell into a daze.
But they were still lucky, none of the soul cultivators in the center of the explosion were spared, including a silver master who served as a front-line commander, more than a hundred bronze heavy shield soldiers, and dozens of bronze soul cultivators who temporarily served as sappers.
However, dust explosions rarely occur only once.
About ten seconds after the first explosion, a second, more powerful explosion occurred. This time, even the bamboo wall on the side of the workshop was damaged to a certain extent, and a few unlucky people were hit by the blown stones and lost half their lives.
And on the enemy's side, not to mention those who were at the center of the explosion before, even the group that subconsciously rushed over to save people after discovering the explosion was also unlucky.
In dust explosions, the second explosion is often more powerful than the first, and if the conditions are extreme, a third explosion may even occur.
Like what......
Rumble!
The third explosion occurred again fifteen seconds after the end of the second interval, this time the power was far less than the previous two, it was the final sweep, but the chain of three explosions had been deeply imprinted in the hearts of everyone at the scene.
Gu Suke was also frightened: "The adult said that this trick is very dangerous, but I didn't expect this trick to be so dangerous, fortunately, the adult reminded me again and again, I didn't put this thing in the workshop!"
"You were going to use it in the workshop in the first place?" Aglaya looked at Gusuke in a daze.
"I did have this intention in the first place! I thought these things were not as powerful as earth-shattering thunder!"
Aglaya wiped the cold sweat on her head: "It's good that you changed your mind!"
"Yes, I'm glad I changed my mind! No, I'm going to reestimate the power of all the things that the adults left behind. Well, each of them should be estimated to increase the damage by at least thirty percent!" Gu Suke thought of his own plan, and scared himself out of a cold sweat. (To be continued.) )
