Chapter 41: Blood, Fire, and Thunder
"Brave Gore, let the thousand serpents of the Most Beautiful God protect you on your way!"
On the grass behind the Chaos Beast Army, the beautiful blue-haired and ponytailed girl Lesya opened her hands and prayed, and one after another glittering rune signs rose from under her feet, turning into purple and cyan wheels of light. Her flowing hair rose with the light wheel, and the beautiful gold and silver ornaments on her limbs danced and resounded with the light. A pale red and curly tattoo of the winged demon snake gradually appeared on her white skin, as if she were alive, swimming strangely between the girl's chest, arms, and lower abdomen, until it converged on the jewel pendant in the middle of her chest, and then suddenly coalesced into shape, merging with the surrounding light wheel, quickly growing in size in the wind, unfolding, and shooting like a soaring firebird towards the advancing Chaos Beasts.
This dozens of feet long, the glorious translucent winged demon snake flies in the array of chaos beasts like a phoenix, every time it flaps its wings, every time it swings its body, there will be countless purple and cyan points of light landing on the bodies of the chaos beasts, bringing an indescribable sense of explosion and happiness, which makes the beasts forget their fear, and their bodies are also full of strength. In an instant, the demon snake flew past six or seven squadron queues, and each place it passed erupted into deafening cheers and roars, and the demon snake gradually became more transparent, thinner, and finally dissipated like mist in this rapidly charging queue.
"Probably more than a thousand Gore have been blessed with my magical effects, but I've ...... All the strength was used. Sister, why can't I catch up with you? I'm also a dancer of the gods who is dedicated to Salis! I'm really jealous. ”
With this soft grumble, the blue-haired half-naked girl mage sighed, and fell weakly into the circle under her feet, the huge blessing magic just now had consumed all her strength. She propped herself up with her bare elbows and sat up reluctantly, staring at the blazing war clouds on the high ground below the sky. She's done what needs to be done, and it's time for the Chaos Beasts to show their strength.
Chaos Beasts are not a fierce being, in fact most of them ---- love to run away! and because of their instincts, they are afraid of fire and the smell of gunpowder. So in general, Chaos Beasts are not good at storming cities. But when there are supporting Chaos Mages among them, things are very different. When their beast instincts and group madness instincts are briefly evoked by chaos magic, they become quite formidable opponents for a period of time----- and this is the case now.
The first to storm the wall of the station were the five squadrons of the first column, which advanced in an evacuating formation in the face of bows, crossbows, bullets, and shells from the wall. When they approached forty or fifty paces from the wall of the garrison with their shields on their backs, they threw javelins and axes at the defenders, shooting down many "humans" from the walls, but unfortunately, most of them were strawmen. But under the rain of javelin axes, the defenders inevitably needed to conceal, and their firepower weakened. The Gores behind hurriedly lifted the ladder and threw themselves into the trench.
Chaos beasts pounced on the trench in groups after group, and fearlessly, inspired by the magic of Slaanesh, did not hesitate to jump down the ladder, and even threw the corpses of their comrades killed and wounded in the first wave into the trench as sandbags to fill in. A rain of arrows and buckshot struck them on their heads, and flesh flew everywhere, and the beasts in front kept falling, but soon the ones behind would pick up. The dead and the wounded were pushed into the ditch, and dirt, branches, wooden shields, and other debris were thrown into it, and soon two paths were filled in the ditch, which caused the beasts to cheer.
The Gordes swarmed and carried the ladder to the road, the magic of ** made their bodies boil with blood, the green muscles burst out, there was no fear at all, only the killing **! In a matter of moments, nearly a hundred beasts had rushed to the wooden wall of the rammed earth foundation and began to raise the ladder, but a dozen straw men immediately fell from the city wall in the middle of them, and then piles of lit oil bottles fell from the sky, and the blazing flames suddenly turned the wall into a sea of fire, and even the brave beasts could not cope with this temperature, so they could only flee with their heads in their arms with their heads covered in flames, rolling all over the ground, and the guns of the city wall were also aimed at the rear of the beasts, and they were knocked down. So this wave of attacks was retreated again.
The Beastmaster Kent Gore also approached the trench with his four boar chariots. In fact, in the process of impact, it was supposed to have five chariots, but at a distance of 200 paces, a snake cannon shell shattered one of them, and the wild boars pulling the carts howled and collided, killing and injuring many of the surrounding Gore, which was a considerable loss. However, the Beastmaster Kentgor did not care about all this, he commanded the chariots to get close to the trenches, and threw large javelins, axes, and maces onto the walls, while the archers hid behind the chariots' thick wooden shields, which could avoid the crossbows and bullets of the city. And the chariots are running back and forth, and as a moving target, they will not be hit by artillery, and the brave battle of these four mobile fortresses has indeed had a great effect, the human firepower has weakened, and the morale of the Chaos Beasts has been reinvigorated.
The third wave of attacks soon began, this time with six ladders braving human guns and over the trenches, and the daredevils wrapped their heads in leather to resist the oil and used their forks to pick up the fire in the corners, desperately erecting the ladders up the wall. The covering Chaos Beasts concentrated their fire on the female walls on both sides of the ladder, javelins, short axes and stones fell like hailstones, hitting the female wall like hedgehogs, and the human defenders used muskets, crossbows, and oil bottles to frantically return fire, and the two ladders were burned, but there were still more than a dozen Gore, including several of the most courageous "Bystigor" guards, bravely climbed the human wall and pulled down a human flag! Victory was coming! The beasts under the city let out a fanatical roar.
But victory did not come, and the roars of humans and the screams of wild beasts mingled and reverberated over the walls. In the smoke of brimstone and flames, flesh and blood flew, swords flashed, one figure after another fell, and the corpses of sheep-headed beasts were thrown off the wall, and with a lion-like roar and a brilliant flash, the largest ladder was pushed down along with several Gore, and fell into the flames under the corner, while the shotgun of the two snake cannons blurred the flesh and blood of the Gore, the reserve Gore who had rushed behind to prepare to enter the city, and the broken horns and hooves flew wildly. This made the beasts angry, and the humans on the walls cheered in amazement.
"Vicious humans, venomous humans! Crash hammer forward!"
The Beastmaster Kent Gore roared angrily, his slender tongue twitching from side to side like a serpent's letter, hot air emanating from between his sharp teeth and turning into white smoke in the cold wind. In the fierce battle just now, it was the first to throw spears to suppress the defenders on the wall, so it was also attacked a lot. The brushed rocket burned a piece of hair off the top of its head, a bullet struck its enchanted shoulder armor, causing a pit, and several crossbow arrows hit its body, but it was blocked by the sturdy enchanted breastplate, causing only a small impact. Therefore, it is deeply grateful for the gift of the messenger of the gods, and of course it is even more eager to show its significance as the king of beasts in front of the messengers of the gods.
Two roof-like rams were on standby under the fire at the main entrance of the station, and because of their slow speed, the other two had already been destroyed before they could get here. One was shattered by the solid lead bullet of the snake cannon, and the other was overturned by the shock wave of the blasting shell of the curved cannon, but the fearless Gore, who were inspired by the magic**, still braved the fire and bullets, pushing the remaining two into the dead end of the artillery fire under the main entrance of the station.
The order of the beastmaster's general attack was unstoppable, and the beasts hurriedly filled the trenches, and the corpses, tree trunks, and dirt were thrown down together, and the bullets and crossbow arrows continued to fire, and the Gordes fell one by one, but the work did not stop at all, they seemed to become puppets, and the thousand serpents of slaanesh magic seemed to take away their fear. The other squadrons of Gore rushed to the sides to erect wooden shields, and used a rain of javelin axes to suppress the walls on both sides and the cannon holes on the towers, beating the eighteen-foot-high towers like hedgehogs.
