Chapter 225: Battle for Supremacy on Land and Sea (4) (Ask for Recommendation!Ask for a Monthly Pass!Ask for Subscription!)
In Quest's view, the mode of war in the island world can be called rudimentary. Not to mention the bloody airdrop battlefield he had experienced, it was the annihilation war against the invasion of the Japanese Mulberry, in which the strategy, tactics and even various technical means used were ahead of the distance of more than a dozen Chang'an Streets in the island world.
For example, the camel shaman summoned an elemental creature to strike at the opponent, but in addition to the immense momentum, he was extinguished by the opponent before he could cause too much damage to the enemy, and even the simple "mallet anvil tactic" could not be used.
A little tally showed that this team, consisting of a dozen polar bears and more camel guards, had not killed as many monsters as the gladiators in the Arena for almost as long as they were.
Although the gladiators had a higher proportion of steel weapons, they also did not have the bronze plate armor that the Polar Bears had. And blunt weapons like warhammers, iron and copper are almost the same. Even heavier copper weapons are more lethal if the user has enough strength.
Further, excluding the unarmed, relatively weak floating raftmen – in fact, the polar bears and camels had little extra care for them, not to mention a drag at all – there were so many strong warriors that they had neither the intention of breaking through nor the intention of counter-charging. Instead, he chose to compete with a large number of monsters and blindly waited for help.
This is actually quite telling. With such a level of command, the benthic devilfish did not take down the land race, and it was really thanks to the geographical advantage that played a big role.
Perhaps this was why the captain of Grad immediately agreed to retreat to the cliff post.
"It's a matter of habit," Quis silently commented in his heart, and then looked at the Coral Golem who turned the muzzle of the cannon and gradually approached the cliff after destroying the fire elemental creatures and air elemental creatures with water cannonballs, "It's not a good habit to be passively beaten. ”
As if to confirm what he was thinking, the Coral Golem immediately fired at the top of the cliff as soon as it got close enough.
"Bang bang bang", three test-fired water cannon shells whistled out.
For shooters who can't press their guns, a triple shot will never disappoint. Although two shots hit the rock wall, leaving only a fragment of stone, the third water cannon successfully hit the target.
A camel guard, crouched behind a low wall, vigilantly watching the resurgence of the monster army, was smashed by a water cannonball.
The dromedary has visible distortions on its body, and comminuted fractures of its torso and at least one arm. Before he could let out a cry of pain, he died from a rib piercing in the heart.
"Be careful!" yelled Gersan.
The camel shaman immediately crouched down, pressed his palm to the rocky ground, and began to chant the incantation.
After a few breaths, stone pillars like giant fingers protruded from both sides of the cliff, protecting everyone in the middle.
Feeling the spell fluctuations that brought about the change in the terrain, Quest secretly reminded himself, "This is ...... Divine arts?"
The Coral Golem blasts indiscriminately at the top of the cliff in a triple burst, and as a constructed creature, it never gets tired.
The firing of high-pressure water cannonballs does consume a portion of the energy stored in the core, and it cannot be squandered indefinitely.
After a failed water cannonball attack, the Coral Golem decisively abandoned this attack, breaking some "starfish-shaped" fragments from its body and projecting them with its four arms.
It is somewhat similar to the "Frisbee" launched at the beginning, except that the starfish-shaped fragments are much smaller than the "Frisbee", and the power is naturally not comparable, but it is better than the number of them.
"This trick...... Is it called 'rain of flowers'?"
Quest muttered quietly as he used his spear to pluck away a few coral darts that had slipped through the finger-like rock "fingers" that Gersang had summoned with the Priest's Divine Technique.
Cries of pain came and went, and many of the people guarding the top of the cliff were hit by coral darts.
"Damn. ”
Kelsang continued to chant the incantation that had summoned the stone pillars earlier, and more stone pillars "grew", blocking the gaps left earlier.
However, it was difficult for them to observe the situation on both sides in time, which was precisely the purpose of the Coral Golem.
It suddenly changed from staggering to small and brisk steps, making a "crunch" sound that pierced the eardrums with each step.
There was a loud "boom", and two of the four arms of the constructed creature landed heavily on the cliff face. Keeping in mind that the owner of the benthic mobfish ordered the coral golem to start climbing to the top of the cliff with all his might.
In order to cover the Golem, the monsters below the cliff also started a new attack. Relying on the carapace on his body, the armored monster rushed forward first.
"I'll deal with the golem," seeing that the situation was critical, Volibel immediately said Gelsan, "you go and drag down the monster army." ”
After speaking, the chief of the bear tribe first glared at the eager Wolfga, "Polar bears, fearless!" Volibel let out a thunderous roar, and his erect body leaned forward quickly, landing on all fours.
Although he is an elemental shaman like Gelsang, this polar bear spellcaster is clearly taking a different path.
True to his nickname "Thunder Roar", Volibel was accustomed to applying the power of thunder to himself, then delivering his furious roar to his enemies at close range, along with the Thunderbolt's Bite and Claw Strike.
The storm suddenly formed above the cliff with Volibell in the center, his white hair fluttering in the wind.
Lightning flickered across the sky, and sparks danced at the tips of the polar bears' claws, and then with a crack, a bolt of lightning shot forward—not from the sky—but from between the sharp claws of Volibel, which had grown thicker and thicker.
"Rolling thunder!"
Following the trail of lightning, Volibel, who was covered in hair, sprang out.
With a slight leap, he climbed over the wall of the stone pillar summoned by Kelsan, and even as he fell, he kicked the rock wall with his limbs and sped up again, pounced on the Coral Golem.
"Thunder Claw!"
As Volibell roared again, a thunderbolt slammed from the tip of its claw into one of the Coral Golem's waving arms, and the arms that had been trying to stop the Polar Bears burst open, and the other three arms that were propped up on the cliff face were almost unbalanced.
Lightning refracted three times on the Coral Golem, cumulatively causing four violent explosions. Black smoke billed from some of the locations connected to the core torso, and it was clear that the constructed creature had been hit hard.
Without the arm to hinder him, Volibell slammed into the Coral Golem.
"Supreme Roar", "Wild Fury"......
Like "the last straw that broke the camel's back", the iron palms of the polar bear shaman with the power of thunder fell one after another, and the branches on the core of the coral golem continued to shatter and collapse.
Finally, with a sound similar to the breaking of a cable, the Coral Golem's other arm inserted into the rock wall also snapped.
The massive constructed creature fell straight out of mid-air, smashing into a shallow crater and turning itself into a shard.
Volibel gripped the rock wall with his sharp claws at the last moment, and was now struggling to climb to the top of the cliff.
Aside from him, the frontal battlefield is also in full swing at this time. Taking advantage of the previous attack launched by the Coral Golem, the armor monsters and the fish monsters also approached the defensive position.
The first Armored Monster stepped onto the flip trap and was pierced through by the reversed wooden spikes, spilling blue blood.
"Shoot the arrows!" cried Gersan, the camel warlord familiar with the military formations, "try not to let them come close." ”
Twenty or so dromedary humppers, divided into three rows, picked up the long poles of whip arrows, and fired them with the help of centrifugal force.
Many of the rafters were small in stature - compared to the camel people, they constantly shuttled between the formations of the camel archers, responsible for carrying bundles of whips and arrows with arrows attached to the hands of the archers.
Without having to change the arrows themselves, with the Hump Man's stamina, these shooters continue to maintain their output for a long time.
Some of the arrows thrown will directly into the monster's body, while others will be blocked by carapace and scales.
At this time, Captain Grad, who has been observing the momentum of the monsters' attack, plays a role, he can always find the time when the monsters' attacks are frustrated, and command the polar bears or camel guards to pull out the wooden wedges, put down the rolling stones in time, and clean up the entire mountain trail at once.
"There are no more rolling stones!" When the last rolling stone was lowered, Grad immediately turned his head and reported to Gersan: "According to my previous experience, in about thirty breaths, those monsters will attack again." ”
Gelsang pulled his apprentice over - Proud Twin Peaks had just become an elemental shaman and had not yet mastered too many spells, so he hadn't made any achievements before, "Use what you have learned to block a wave of charges." He pointed to the steel axe in the hand of the young Twin Peaks nobleman, "Whether it's martial arts or shamanic spells, it's fine." I need a little time......"
"I will prove myself," did not prevaricate, in fact, as a Twin Peaks nobleman, he could not refuse, "Whether it is strength or courage, it is worthy of the glory of the Twin Peaks noble." ”
Raising the soles of his feet and stomping on the rocky ground a few times, the Proud Twin Peaks attached the "Stone Skin Technique" to himself. After leaping out of front of the formation, he rushed straight to the army of monsters that were gathering momentum at the bottom of the cliff.
Just like Quiss did before and after the break, but instead of relying on martial arts, but relying on brute force and stone skin techniques to improve his defense, the young Twin Peaks nobleman wielded an axe and started a matchless dance between the fish demon monster and the armor monster.
"This ...... Heads-up," looking at the endless battle scene, the young blue dragon who was hiding on the cliff and paddling sneered in his heart, and strengthened his previous judgment: "The battle in this plane can be called a rookie pecking each other. Maybe ......"
