Chapter 85: Blood Crickets
Mu Yang's gaze was cast into the distance, and when he saw the figure that Ge Tianbing was pointing at, his pupils tightened slightly.
"That's a blood cricket. ”
In Mu Yang's line of sight, hundreds of dwarf humanoid creatures appeared in the rear camp of the demon army.
The reason why they are called humanoids is that although they have the same body size as humans, the part of their neck is divided into human heads.
The creatures were all on all fours, naked with no armor or even clothing to cover them.
The surface of their skin is covered with dark green patterns, their thin bodies are extremely curvy, their waists are slender, and their chests are high-towering.
These humanoids with perfect bodies had no head at all, only a neck wrapped in green skin, the tip of which was densely covered with slender whiskers, which writhed and sometimes split in the middle, revealing rows of sharp teeth inside.
Hearing the word 'blood cricket', Ge Tianbing's face suddenly turned pale, he had heard of this kind of demon creature for a long time but it was the first time he had seen it, they had the running speed of a wild wolf, the palms and soles of their hands and feet had suckers, they were the best at climbing, and the big mouth under the meat whiskers on the top of their heads could swallow a human head after opening up, and their sharp teeth could easily bite off people's necks, and they didn't expect that in order to capture Black Rock City, the demon army actually brought them.
"What should I do?"
Ge Tianbing Khan has come down, according to the current battle form, if the blood clams really rush over, it will definitely affect the suppression of the defenders against the blood skeleton warriors under the city, and it is almost impossible to stop the demon army from going to the city.
Mu Yang said with a gloomy face: "The biggest advantage of the blood clams is speed, but their defense is weak, and ordinary bows and crossbows can deal with it, so the demon army put them behind the siege soldiers to attack, it seems that they can only use the seven killing crossbows, what I am worried about is that they will be scattered to the city, so that the people of the five major families will no longer preserve their strength, and the three thousand demon army behind them will not care about it first, release Xingyuan, and destroy the cloud ladder with all their might!"
"Good!"
With Ge Tianbing's order, the cultivators of the five major families on the city wall raised the star yuan one after another, and the weapons in their hands suddenly emitted a colorful light, and with the wave of their arms, they slashed heavily on the cloud ladder.
......
"How can there be so many cultivators!"
After the demon army was in the camp, Rogge and the three demon generals saw the scene on the city wall, and their faces suddenly became ugly.
Leper Jiu's face also changed, and in his sight, he saw several blue-clothed cultivators raising the long swords in their hands at the same time above a cloud ladder, and with the swing of his arm, the flowing star elements on the long sword shot out, not only cutting the body of a blood skeleton warrior in two, but also shattering the horizontal brace of the cloud ladder, and the blood skeleton warrior below lost the support of their feet, and immediately hung on the ladder pole.
Judging from the signs of Xingyuan's surge, the cultivation of these cultivators is not high, they are all above and below the second realm and three grades, and the highest is only the second realm and eight grades, which is still far from the three realms released by Xingyuan, but the lethality that they burst out with a single blow can actually form a two-meter-long sword qi, which is not much weaker than the full force of the peak powerhouse of the Douxing Realm.
"Fencing Formation!"
Leper Jiu squeezed a few words out between his teeth, and at this moment he finally understood the reason why no one had destroyed the Cloud Ladder since the beginning of the war. As long as the ladder is not destroyed, the attacking warriors will scatter and climb up, and the defenders will be able to kill and injure the enemy in a larger area, and the mortality rate caused by rolling wood and stones is much higher than that of bows and crossbows, which just makes up for the weakness of this temporary defender cobbled together by ordinary people, damn it, how can there be so many stones on the city wall, and it has not been thrown for so long!
At a distance of five hundred meters, the vicious gaze of the Leper Nine Viper fell on the city tower, and he saw Muyang and saw the indifference and calm on his face.
As if sensing that someone was staring at him, Mu Yang's gaze also turned over, the eyes of the two collided together in the void, and a cold wind seemed to suddenly blow on the battlefield, and a chill inexplicably rose in the souls of cultivators and blood skeleton warriors with slightly stronger perception.
A thousand blood-clamshell warriors quickly charged, they landed on all fours, and they were as fast as wolves, and the flesh on their necks was blown by the wind behind them, revealing a large black hole in the middle, and several rows of razor-like fangs kept biting together, making gurgling sounds, and in just a few breaths they passed through the sea of fire in front of them and came to the bottom of the city, some of them went straight up the wall, and the other went around the sides.
"Can't wait any longer, all attack!"
Rogge saw that the ladders under the city wall were destroyed by the cultivators guarding the city, and his eyes suddenly turned red.
After yesterday's battle, thinking of the scene of the defenders using spears to pry the ladder to destroy the siege, he deliberately changed the three ladders into two, and increased the slope with a lengthened method to prevent the defenders from prying, and wrapped iron sheets at both ends of the ladder, so that even a heavy axe is difficult to cut it in a short time, but he didn't expect that the sword qi released by the cultivators in the city could easily cut off his plan in two, if the ladders were all destroyed, the only entrance to the siege would be the city gate...... As soon as he thought of the city gate, a touch of ruthlessness welled up in Rogge's eyes, and he turned his head to the beast tamer not far away and ordered: "Let the siege beast attack!"
The beast tamer held the bone flute in his hand, and he kept blowing, trying to contact the siege beast that had no news after entering the city, because he had blown too long and too hard, his face was red, and his eyes were also full of bloodshots, after hearing Rogge's voice, he hurriedly took two steps forward, licked his dry lips, and said: "General, Mudasa has not responded so far, the situation in the city is unknown, now let Zamha attack, I am afraid that there will be danger." ”
"Dangerous?" Rogge scolded, "Our race is at war with humans, there is no danger one day, don't you see how many heroic blood skeleton warriors have fallen under the city in front!
"No!"
The beast tamer stubbornly raised his head and said, "The duty of the siege beast is to siege the city, not to send it to death! Mdasa suddenly disappeared, things are too weird, before I figure out the reason, I, as a beast tamer, must be responsible for Zamha's life! Even in front of Marshal Bloodslaughter Forest, I will say the same thing." Without waiting for Rogge to get angry, the beast tamer said: "These giant beasts come from the distant Demon Realm Forest, they are scarce and extremely precious, and the value of one is enough to be worth a legion of two thousand people, I can't watch the army of two thousand people go to death in such an unknown way, General, please understand." ”
"If you want to go, you'll go, so much nonsense. ”
Leper Jiu jumped out of the chariot and came to the side of the beast trainer, he held a blood-red serpentine thin sword in his hand, and said: "This time, this army division will be protected by the four generals around Zamha, as long as the defenders dare to open the city gate, we will rush in together to see what accident happened to Mdasa, so that you should rest assured." ”
