462. The best of both worlds

The crossbow bolts fired by large machines have a minimum of 50% of the defense breaking stat, and can also increase the critical strike chance, and when the critical hit is triggered, the damage is 100% damage that completely ignores defense.

Regardless of the attribute, these are the greatest weapons against the Beast Boss!

Although Su Yu is not sure if there will be a beast leader in the beast tide this time, it is always no problem to prepare more, anyway, even if there is no boss monster, other elite monsters can also attack with crossbow arrows, and this crossbow arrow will definitely not be wasted.

Then, the number of fighters specially organized for the beast tide reached one hundred and fifty in two days.

It is worth mentioning that these 150 people are all non-territorial residents, because the territorial residents participate in the beast tide by default, after all, the beast tide attack is different from the previous activity of cleaning up the sea area, and the beast attacks their 'home'.

There's no way they're going to watch their homes being attacked, so they're definitely going to participate.

Even residents who are not capable of fighting will need to do some logistical work within their means, whether it is to help transport supplies, the wounded, or to bandage their wounds...... There's something everyone can do anyway.

The population of the territory has now broken through the five hundred mark, plus these one hundred and fifty people is six hundred and fifty people, it may be a little difficult to deal with large beast tides, but there is definitely no problem in dealing with small beast tides, even medium-sized beast tides can support for several days.

This is still the case of the total combat effectiveness of ordinary people.

If you add catapults, city crossbows, and a few magicians, then even a medium-sized beast tide will not have much of a surprise.

The fastest time for a large beast tide that Su Yu had seen before was eighty days, and now it was only the fifty-seventh day, a difference of more than three weeks, and the possibility of a large beast tide was basically zero.

In addition, there is another factor that also proves in disguise that this time it cannot be a large beast tide.

It is impossible for the people who caused the beast tide to do it while the leader of the beast, the black bear, is still alive, otherwise they will definitely be discovered.

After all, the black bear is the leader of the beast, and knows the forest very well, all the beasts of the forest are its 'eyes and ears', and it can be defeated by the black snake because of its equal status, but it is absolutely impossible for humans to hide from it to do anything in the forest.

In the forest, the beasts have an absolute advantage, and no matter how strong they are, they can't beat the beasts, so they must have polluted those animals after the death of the black bear.

The death of the black bear was on the forty-sixth day, exactly ten days from today.

If they were able to trigger a large beast tide in just ten days, what else could they not do?

In other words, are they really that powerful, do they still need to do things in such a hideout way?

You must know that the difficulty and scale of the large beast tide are several times that of the medium-sized beast tide, and the number of beasts involved is at least tens of thousands, of which more than eighty percent must be at least medium-sized beasts, otherwise all of them are rabbits and squirrels, which are not called beast tides.

Not to mention whether there are so many beasts next door, the fact that on average thousands of beasts are polluted every day, it is impossible to easily do it with some small means.

Therefore, Su Yu believes that this time the beast tide is most likely a small beast tide, at most it barely surpasses the small medium-sized beast tide.

With this conclusion, Su Yu was more aware of all the preparations for the beast tide.

The only thing that has been a little undecided so far is about Lin Chen and Lin Dui, but this is also something that cannot be helped.

Su Yu had already thought about it, it was impossible for her to ignore the safety of the sisters in order to catch the live mouth, so either she could find a solution to both worlds, and if she couldn't find it, it would definitely be to protect the two of them.

As for the lives of those people, it doesn't matter.

It is best to be captured alive, even if they die, these people have done a lot of evil, and they themselves are innocent of death, and they are not worthy of sympathy, at most, it is a pity that there is no way to ask any news from their mouths.

……

……

In the blink of an eye, another day had passed, and the sturdy arrow walls had been completely built, and Ain's job now was to arrange for people to further strengthen and maintain them.

And he himself got another arrangement from Su Yu, and began to arrange various traps for traps to catch beasts outside the city wall, as well as to build a watchtower in the city for observing the situation in the distance, and an arrow tower for long-range attacks, etc.

These are not necessary, but if you have the time, it is definitely better to do a little more preparation.

An Jie's side had already assembled all six catapults and five crossbows to defend the city, and at the same time as the city wall was built, these eleven large machines were also sent to the city wall at the same time and placed in place.

At present, Su Yu has arranged some people to be proficient in the use of these two large machinery, in order to ensure uninterrupted use, Su Yu has arranged nearly thirty people to be proficient and learn.

While instructing the use, Anjie also took his apprentice to learn the maintenance of machinery.

On the blue side, the number of crossbow arrows has come to nearly four thousand, which is completely enough to deal with the medium-sized beast tide.

As for ordinary arrows, the number of arrows in stock is even more than 200,000.

After all, it's easy to craft, doesn't require any skill level to craft, and can craft dozens of sticks at once.

Arrows are as daily consumables as items such as whetstones, so it's not surprising that there are hundreds of thousands of arrows in the warehouse, and with the tireless production of the workbench, there are 200,000 arrows.

The number of combatants recruited increased by more than 100 in one day.

Although Su Yu did not say what the action was this time, everyone looked at the territory's preparations in the past few days and understood that the territory's seemingly sudden recruitment was not a temporary intention, but sufficient preparations in advance.

Under the same conditions, everyone will definitely be more willing to fight a prepared battle, because it is not easy to be dangerous, and the reward this time is not low, the most basic guaranteed daily salary is one silver coin/person, and the more enemies you kill in the future, the more you will be paid...... And it also includes food and accommodation!

Such a generous treatment, if it were not for the fact that it was clearly stated that only fighters were needed, and that their combat level was also limited, not to mention that less than three hundred people had been assembled now, even if another three hundred people were gathered, it would not be an exaggeration.

……

In addition to the above preparations, the other shops in the territory are not idle, and everyone is busy for this beast tide.

For example, the sewing shop works overtime to make all kinds of armor.

For example, in the tavern, Lin Chen, under the instruction of Su Yu, began to prepare early to brew wine that could increase combat attributes and even restore magic.
