Chapter 57: Horror Beast Tide, Witch Mind
Early in the morning, in the northern border of Wuweiguo, where the Wushen Battalion was stationed, a group of armored sergeants were patrolling the city tower as always.
However, although it was a patrol, the sergeants were full of indifference, and they didn't know what they were thinking, or they were yawning.
It's no wonder that they are not serious, it is true that there has been no abnormal situation in this side of the territory for many years, and this outpost specially set up to deal with the beast tide has almost forgotten the appearance of the beast tide, so naturally no one cares about the current patrol.
There's no way something could happen.
A group of people thought so, and soon the patrol was over, and they were about to go down to the city tower, and at this moment, several people felt that something was wrong.
Why is the castle tower trembling under your feet? Someone reacted quickly, turned around and looked out at the battlements, and saw a black and oppressive thing in the distance smoking, rushing towards the direction of the castle tower.
Seeing this scene, the sergeant was full of excitement, his eyes widened, and the next moment he shouted out with a howl of fear and panic.
"Beast tide-" The sergeants on the castle tower were all panicked and at a loss, and soon an officer in a cloak and half armor rushed up to the castle tower, looking at the beast tide in the distance, and his color changed.
"Ring the alarm bell, release wolf smoke, and prepare to defend against the enemy!" The officer shouted, and a group of sergeants who had no master suddenly had a backbone and began to get busy.
A loud noise was heard, one after another, and then a thick blood-colored smoke rose into the sky, warning into the distance, and the entire city tower began to operate.
A large number of soldiers who had been awakened from their sleep rushed to the top of the city, stood in special positions, and then, in the sound of the order, injected force into the masonry beneath them without any money.
After a while, the whole city tower remembered the loud sound of clicking, faintly mixed with the sound of winches turning and gear clinking, and then a shocking scene appeared, and the entire city tower began to deform!
Cracks cracked in the spiked walls, and then a large circular saw blade poked out and spun slowly.
At the head of the city, a series of specially made war machines similar to catapults and bed crossbows were pushed out, aimed at the beast tide in the distance, and a large number of sergeants began to transport ammunition in the rear, at first a little hectic and jerky, but soon became proficient and orderly.
Soon, the beast tide in the distance became clearer and clearer in the eyes of everyone, and the distance kept getting closer, and a large number of soldiers were short of breath, looking at the hideous figures that were getting closer and closer with red eyes, nervous.
The officers at the head of the city were just as nervous at the moment. He had experienced a beast tide once, he was a survivor, he knew better than anyone else how terrible the beast tide was, but at the moment, he must not panic, otherwise the soldiers under his command who had not experienced the beast tide might collapse their morale, and everyone would have to die at that time.
So the only chance now is to fight a wave of ruthlessness, so that the beast tide will regard the direction of their city tower as a dangerous area, otherwise, just a city tower, in the face of the beast tide, there is only one end - destruction!
The officer's face was serious, and he suppressed the fear in his heart and silently calculated the distance.
When the beast tide stepped two hundred paces away from the city wall, the officer suddenly shouted.
"Put!"
Many soldiers were stunned, but more of them activated the mechanism, and then a large number of stone cannons on the city flew out in a parabola, smashing towards the beast tide in the distance.
The stone cannon began to disintegrate in the air, scattering like flowering shrapnel, and the first moment it smashed into the beast tide, it exploded with a bang.
Just listen to a series of loud noises and fires, a large number of demon beasts were blown apart, or missing arms and legs, and a large number of people were killed and injured in the blink of an eye.
But for the vast base of the beast tide, it was nothing at all, the movement of the beast tide was almost not affected, and a large number of strange-shaped demon beasts were still rushing forward fearlessly.
With another "release", a large number of stone cannons flew out, smashing pieces of flesh and mud in the beast tide, and then the stone cannons began to fire one after another at an extremely fast frequency.
Scattered flower stone cannons, explosive stone cannons, fire oil stone cannons, all kinds of stone cannons were projected out, and hundreds of demon beasts were killed in a moment's effort, but in the face of such a base beast tide, it was still a drop in the bucket.
Many demon beasts were burning with flames, and they rushed forward with the team without a head, and then turned into charcoal and fell on the way to charge, being trampled by their fellow clansmen, perhaps the continuous death stimulated the blood of the demon beasts, and the running speed of these demon beasts began to speed up, and their eyes were also terribly red, and they let out a seeping roar.
Seeing that the demon beast at the front was still dozens of steps away and was about to rush to the city wall, a group of soldiers armed with strange weapons appeared on the battlements.
These soldiers aimed something like a bamboo tube at the diagonal bottom of the city wall, and entered the martial energy, and then the mouth of the black hole spewed flames, and a lump of black things burst out and smashed down on the beast tide array.
Boom Boom!
The violent explosion sounded again, and a large number of demon beasts turned into stumps and broken arms, blood and flesh splashed, and the momentum was stagnant, but the demon beasts behind didn't care about this, and continued to rush towards the city wall.
The soldiers on the battlements began to fill the "bamboo tube", and after firing another volley, leaving a trail of flesh and blood, the beast tide finally rushed to the foot of the city wall.
A large number of monsters began to climb the wall. Countless demon beasts soon piled up upwards and climbed towards the city wall. The oil began to pour, slippery and greasy to stop the momentum of the beast tide, and then as the rocket ignited, the fierce fire rose into the sky, mixed with the smell of heat and burning, and smoked so that people could not open their eyes.
But the soldiers had to continue pouring the fire oil down against the spicy smell of the eyes, but the fire oil was not a panacea after all, and as the corpses piled up, the monsters began to climb the city walls, and what awaited them was row after row of saw blades.
Hello! Hello! Hello!
The saw blade rotated wildly, chopping the demon beasts one by one, but more demon beasts continued to move upward, and soon the saw blade was stuck by broken bones and animal skins, and stopped rotating, so more and more demon beasts rushed up.
As the first demon beast broke through the defense line of the sawblade and rushed to the battlements, a bloody white-knuckle battle began.
In less than half an hour, the Martial God Battalion was completely annihilated, the special city tower was half destroyed, and a large number of demon beasts jumped down from the city tower and chased them in the direction of the original beast tide, and soon completed the convergence, leaving only a dead city where even the corpse was gnawed away......
Next, the beast tide advanced like a bamboo, and the border towns that received the warning of wolf smoke were still breached, even if they reacted in time, they were still breached, leaving behind the wreckage of one place after another, and it took less than half a day to fall!
The scourge of the beast tide is terrifying!
In the palace thousands of miles away, Wang Qian sat on the dragon chair, beside the puppet-like new emperor, listening to the news of the war report on the border, there was a joy in his expression that was difficult for others to detect.
Dragon Qi!
Wu Weiguo's dragon qi began to loosen with the destruction of one town after another!
The dragon qi that could only be weakened and devoured after a national war could now be torn off directly now, how could she not be excited?
She entered Wu Weiguo for the sake of this dragon qi, isn't it?
I thought that I would have to wait until the war with Qi Yanguo was over before I could absorb some of the dragon qi, but I didn't expect to be greatly helped by the sudden beast tide.
Looking at the anxiety on the faces of the envoys and civil and military officials reported by His Royal Highness, the corners of Wang Qian's mouth hooked up a trace of arc that no one noticed. Let's let this beast tide come more violently!
