Chapter 611: [Divine Punishment Regiment
Snatch Snatch Snatch Snatch ......
A dense rain of arrows, sharp arrows nailed to the planks, the astonishing movement, made the human soldiers hiding below almost jump out of their hearts.
Overhead, those terrifying shadows in the air shone brightly, but they finally receded far away.
In the distance, there are still a few figures floating in the sky with magical light, it is the human magician who is resisting, some powerful mages often fly into the sky to fight back with magic, but the archers of the jīng spirit clan have almost become the natural enemies of the magician! The bow and arrow of the jīng spirit clan are far away, and the accuracy is amazing, after the magician flies into the sky, he can only try to deal with the jīng spirit clan when he casts magic. Moreover, the number of magicians in the city was only more than twenty, and it was too difficult to dispatch hundreds or thousands of jīng spirit clans to the mansion at every turn. Even the sky above the fortress could not be fully defended, so it could only resist in a few important areas.
Even so, after several days of fighting, the mage was finally killed and wounded.
"Luckily, this is the last wave of the day, and it's getting dark in a while. ”
One of the soldiers lifted the thick plank on his body with great force, and his scalp tingled as he glanced at it full of arrows.
The arrows used by these jīng spirits look very simple, as if they were directly cut from the branches of some unknown plant, but the power is so terrifying......
In the fortress of the Eastern Defence, the human defenders of the city have had a difficult time since the fall of the river. The sinners have unrivaled air superiority, and those who have the ability to fly are the jīng spirits. They flew to the city at least three times a day and carried out three waves of air raids.
As a result, after the initial human beings suffered a lot of losses, the defenders of the city, without the ability to counterattack from the air, could only resist by all means, and the doors of all the houses in the city had been dismantled. When the Jīng Spirit Clan attacked, the defenders could only hide in groups of three or five, hiding under thick planks.
Even. When the Jīng Spirit Clan occasionally attacked, the defenders on the city defense had to hide under this dense rain of arrows to eat. Despite this, the casualties of the soldiers in the city were still rising, and many people were still killed by stray arrows while moving with wooden planks.
In this case, the news of the embarrassment of the Eastern Front reached the rear, and the commander of the human air force, General Andrew, also launched two counteroffensives. However, in the air, the combat ability of the airship was far lower than that of the Jīng Spirit Clan, and after paying two more heavy prices, the Air Force did not send out again to send them to death.
"Hey, it's time to eat. "A soldier was carrying a plank on his back, on which were nailed arrows, and a large wooden basin in his hand. Running back and forth in the city, he distributed the bread in the basin into the hands of the soldiers.
"These damn monster races......" The soldiers lay under the planks in embarrassment, munching on the bread in their hands, cursing in their hearts.
"It's been three days......" On the riverside, the evening breeze blows, gradually with a hint of warmth.
The snow's long hair was lifted by the breeze, and it squinted its eyes at the human fortress walls in the distance, but there was a bit of unpredictability on its stunning face.
I looked up at the sky. A dense group of jīng spirits, shrouded in a faint golden light, had already flown back from the sky above the fortress.
"It's been three days. It turned its head to look behind it, and the two elders of the jīng spirit clan hurriedly bowed their heads: "It's the earth, the king." Humanity seems to have few effective means of countering our air offensive. In the past few days, our archers have killed four of their magicians. ”
Luo Xue nodded, but sighed in a low voice: "It's really good to kill four magicians." Because among the human race, the total number of magicians is not very large. But...... Our warriors also have losses. ”
"Compared to humans. Our losses are almost negligible. A jīng spirit elder looked up, its old face, still glowing with the white skin characteristic of the jīng spirit clan, long ears, and pointed chin. The long hair was also quite flowing: "The ordinary warriors of the human race have almost no threat to us. Their bows and arrows and those ballistas were a joke for our warriors in the air. The only ones who can do us a little bit of damage are the magicians. Thankfully, they have too few magicians. I want to ......"
Luo Xue smiled: "What do you want to say, please don't worry." ”
"King. The elder wondered, "With the level of human beings, why don't we take this fortress in one fell swoop, and since they can't resist our air attack, if we storm the earth in one go......
"Because of life. Luoxue sighed and looked at the elder, his voice soft: "Our population, among the entire sinners, is still too small. ”
As he spoke, its eyes turned into the distance, and said faintly: "Even if it loses tens of thousands of warriors, with the reproductive ability of those orcs, it only takes a year to give birth to more people." But we ...... Even the loss of hundreds of fighters will take a long time to ...... The birth rate of our family has always been low. Every time you lose a warrior of the Jīng Spirit Clan, it takes a long time to ......"
But then it smiled: "Of course, I'm not afraid of death and injury, since it's a war, then I won't have this kind of concern, I waited for a few days, just to test Xìng's attack, in fact, it is gradually disintegrating the fighting spirit of mankind." When we first crossed the river, the momentum of the human race did not weaken much, on the contrary, under the mourning soldiers, their morale was high, probably inspired by the army that finally defended the river beach and died in battle. It paused, then smiled faintly: "But morale is such a thing, it is very quick to agitate, and after it dissipates, it is not so easy to agitate again." In the past few days, the soldiers in the city have been repeatedly tortured by us, and they must have worn off their sharpness. ”
said. It clenched its fists slightly: "Break the city, it's tonight!" jīng Spirit King's eyes flashed: "Our land...... Have the punishments arrived? So, let them go out tonight, and tomorrow morning we can watch them come out from the walls. ”
A desperate smile tugged at the corner of its mouth.
The two elders were shocked: "You...... Do you really plan to let them go out into battle? This is not in line with the tradition of jīng spirits! jīng spirits are a proud race, how can they use ......?"
"Power is power, and if you don't use it, you waste it. Luoxue categorically shouted, "Besides." Even if I can save one of my warriors, I will not be stingy to use any means!"
It stared coldly at the two elders: "Pass my order, after the rì falls, the divine punishment team will be dispatched, let them work harder, otherwise it will ......"
The two elders shuddered and hurriedly lowered their heads.
Luoxue turned and continued to look at the fortress to the south, its hands behind its back, silent for a moment. But suddenly he whispered, "Are you worried?"
Not far from the snowfall, Lockhart, a captive, stood there with a complicated expression, his hands tucked into his sleeves, and the expression on his face was faintly filled with a hint of anger.
Lockhart was wearing a jīng-style robe, and his appearance was quite delicate, if not for the pointy ears of the jīng spirit. Then it's like a jīng spirit clan.
"Worried about the fate of your kind?" Luo Xue glanced at the captive who was beside him, "You, you must want to go back now and fight with them." ”
Lockhart's eyes were calm, he glanced at Luoxue, and his voice was hoarse: "Why did you bring me here to see this, and say these things?
Luoxue smiled, its smile was not half a fireworks, and said indifferently: "I'm not so cruel." It's just that...... Lockhart, you've been around me so much. During this period of time, the arrangements I have made and all the deployments have never been hidden from you, and you must have measured it in your eyes and heart...... Do you think that under such circumstances, this eastern front of yours can still be defended?"
Lockhart was defeated, and his body shook a few times. finally gritted his teeth and whispered: "Can't hold it!"
But then, he raised his head and shouted: "But even if you break through this fortress, the empire will never compromise!
Luo Xue was silent, but then he also nodded: "That's it." I never doubted. But. After breaking through the Eastern Fortress, this was not my strategic purpose. It's just a move. I must make your empire understand that our race has the strength to pose a deadly threat to them!"
As he spoke, he laughed again, and the voice was pleasant, as if with a seductive magic:
"Whether it's a human, a jīng spirit, or an orc...... In this world, any wise race is the same: in any race, there are brave and cowardly. Where there is nobility, there must be despicable. If there is selflessness, there must also be selfishness. There is a ...... of the main battle" Speaking of this, it deliberately paused and said the last sentence: "There must also be a fear of war! The purpose of my land is to show our strength! To you human beings, show the strong strength of our sinners!"
As night fell, the soldiers on the city defense finally breathed a sigh of relief. According to the practice of these days, these monster races that are in the city will die down at night. They only try to attack the city a few times during the day, and the air raids in the sky will be dispatched two or three times.
Faced with enemies on both the ground and in the sky, the defenders of humanity suffered heavy losses despite all their courage.
As Rìzi passed day by day, this embarrassing situation did not improve in the slightest, and sure enough, as Luoxue said, morale inevitably began to slacken.
Watching as the sun finally set, even the last rays of afterglow faded, the defenders on the walls lit torches, and some of the warriors who had been wounded during the day began to withdraw from the walls to the rear for treatment.
Rotational soldiers climbed the city walls to guard the city defenses, and watched cautiously at the enemy barracks by the river in the distance.
And at this time......
A loud roar, the sound of the roar, came from afar, piercing the night sky!
There was a long and endless howl, and there was a certain sense of oppression that shocked people's hearts! And then, the whistle evolved from one point to another! More and more loud and long whistles came, and the sound seemed to have been oscillated by the air, and smashed directly into people's hearts! The sound seemed to have some kind of magic in it, and when people listened to it, they immediately felt that their bodies trembled, and their strength seemed to weaken immediately!
In the city, some magicians after the daytime battle are resting, and some are seizing time to meditate to replenish their magic power. The howling sound came from afar, and when the soldiers on the city wall fell into panic, many magicians in the city changed their faces wildly, and almost at the same time, more than a dozen magicians came out of the door, and some of them had already flown directly into the air, staring at the north with distorted expressions......
The voice...... The voice......
The voice...... It's not the roar of a beast! Such a strong momentum, such a strong sense of oppression and might......
This is......
Finally, above the sky in the north, a bright light flashed, and then turned into a light like a flame, and then, with that majestic roar, countless huge black shadows, in the night sky, like monsters in the air, vibrating huge wings, towards the fortress of mankind, soaring fiercely!!
"Dragon, Dragon!!, Dragon!!"
I don't know which magician it was, but he finally took the lead in seeing the dark shadows in the sky and let out an exclamation......
