Chapter 196: At the beginning of the war, the goblin must die [Ask for subscription]
The southern outpost was only a few kilometers away from the outer defensive line.
In fact, the integration efficiency of the monsters is far higher than everyone thinks.
This situation shows that there is definitely a boss among the monsters who can suppress everything.
Maybe it's the fierce demon dragon, or maybe it's some other high-level monster descending from the Void Passage.
This is not good news for the people of Magdam.
After the sentinel warning, everyone on the city wall immediately went into combat readiness.
Warriors armed with shields of various styles stood in the way.
As far as the eye can see, there are round shields, square shields, kite-shaped shields, and even small arm shields.
Different shields formed the same formation at this moment.
Each shield is filled with the brilliance of the magic element.
There are also alternate shield warriors on standby in the back row.
In addition, the hand-to-hand fighters armed with various cold weapons stood quietly behind the wall.
They will be responsible for launching a melee strangulation when the monster approaches.
Anyway, the first wave of attacks will most likely not be the turn of the screaming warriors.
In the early days, the main force had to rely on those archers and spellcasters.
There are also many places on the temporary parapet wall where low-level rune shield carts are placed.
The defense of this shield car is not very high, but it can also act as a cover.
Not far behind them, a wooden tower sits a blue orb as large as a coconut.
With the cooperation of multiple second-order spellcasters, this orb was radiating a soft glow towards a radius of several hundred meters in the surrounding area.
The caster bathed in this light can obtain a certain amount of mental power regeneration, which is equivalent to indirectly extending the ability of spell output.
"Click!"
Pull on the bolt and release the bolt safety.
Chen Xuan and his second daughter were also ready to shoot.
Time passed quickly, and just as everyone was waiting, the second horn was blown.
"Woo woo woo ~ "
The melodious sound of the horn echoed in the air.
It's like an elegy.
Death is destined to bloom here, either soaked in blood or demonic blood.
At this time, everyone could already see the group of monsters like the Black Tide.
They stopped about two or three kilometers from the outer line of defense to the south of the city
There's an open area there, which is perfect for assembling a team.
The black-pressed group of monsters was divided into twelve phalanxes under the gaze of everyone.
From a distance, it looks like a wriggling fungus blanket, making your scalp tingle.
Moreover, there are a large number of flying monsters hovering in the air, and they are like a gauze net when they gather in the air.
Chen Xuan mounted two M2 heavy machine guns on the wall pier in front of him, and took out a pair of binoculars and pointed them at the monster assembly place in the distance.
Due to the poor lighting, not much detail can be seen, and everywhere the lens sweeps is a large black press.
The phalanx took shape at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Soon, a crooked phalanx marched towards the southern line of defense.
Behind this phalanx were a dozen large monsters that looked like rhinoceros.
It wasn't until they had advanced some distance that the second and third monster phalanx slowly followed, and a small group of flying monsters followed behind like a swarm of bees.
Chen Xuan put away the binoculars, his expression slightly solemn.
Using [Time Slow] to read the "Book of Poetry", he easily saw through the plans of the monsters through the battle examples recorded in the classics.
This is a typical cannon fodder tactic.
First, send a forward warband composed of low-level monsters to test the strength of the defense.
It can be understood that it was sent to "step on the thunder".
After the temptation is over, the remaining monsters will follow up with the whole army in one go, and cooperate with the high-level monsters to carry out a spring-like siege.
Magdam City is square, and the terrain in all four directions has natural limitations.
For example, in the south of the city, in addition to the open land of several hundred meters that was specially cleared in front, there are swamp ponds and woods on both sides, and such terrain can allow the defenders to play the effect of funnel tactics.
The monsters can't disperse, so they can only concentrate on a fixed area with a gourd's mouth to launch an impact.
"Urumon..."
The ground trembled slightly.
Tens of thousands of monsters launched a swarm charge.
They soon crossed this distance, coming within the 800-meter limit.
As cannon fodder is the Goblin Phalanx.
These ugly, green-skinned little monsters have pustules all over their faces, ranging from goblin swordsmen wielding rusty machetes to goblin warriors holding wooden shields and spears aloft, and tall goblins with sticks in their hands.
There is also a large group of goblin archers holding short wooden bows in the rear.
There are a small number of shamans mixed in.
However, the fastest ones were the Nightshade Wolf Cavalry.
At this moment, these despicable low-ranking monsters were jumping up and down excitedly, saliva dripping down the crooked corners of their mouths, their eyes glowing red, and they were not afraid to rush towards the outer defense line of Magtan City.
The ground was trampled with a "rumbling" sound, and it looked like it was huge.
Under the light curtain of the [Dark Mandala], the monsters were as wild as they were on a moonlit night.
Looking at the surging cluster of goblins, the kitten lady Rebecca seemed to remember some bad memories, and her face turned pale suddenly.
Ophelia, with her blonde hair tied up, was fearless and raised her gun early.
Chen Xuan twisted his neck and moved his arms before re-grasping the two machine guns.
"Don't be afraid, it's time to make these filthy bed bugs pay."
He gave Rebecca an encouraging look.
Thinking of those adventurers who were abused to death, the little cat girl's expression finally became firm.
There were thousands of Nightshade wolf cavalry running at the front, and when they entered the thorn area, their speed suddenly slowed down a lot.
"Hoo! Hoohoo! Hoohoo! ”
They let out a roar that bordered on wheezing, and moved forward without stopping with a maniacal smile on their faces.
"Whew!"
"Woo!"
The echo of the strings appeared, and the crossbow bolts the thickness of the arms shot out from the city crossbow.
Wrapped in pale cyan wind spirit magic, the speed quickly rose to the extreme!
With the goblin's cry of pain, the bolt passed through the chest of the goblin cavalry at the front.
Then it penetrated a straight line of about eighty or ninety meters behind it.
All goblins in their path will have a nearly limb tearing effect when they hit them.
Black blood splattered, and flesh clinging to the green skin splattered everywhere.
The chaotic magic of the low-level monster protector was shattered almost instantly.
Several stout bolts into a goblin cluster in quick succession can have the effect of plowing flesh.
And the attack of the city crossbow was also a signal, opening the prelude to the counterattack of the city of Magdam.
Crossbow archers and rangers shoot arrows blessed by the Magic.
These arrows were still powerful across a distance of two or three hundred meters, forming a dazzling rain of arrows, which fell towards the goblin cluster like a torrent.
"Fire!"
He calculated the power of the 12.7×99 mm ammunition and assessed an optimal firing distance.
And now is the best time to make a move!
I saw Chen Xuan open his bow left and right, grabbed the rear grips of the two M2 heavy machine guns with one arm, and pressed the V-shaped butterfly trigger located on the receiver.
This is the embodiment of brute force, making him comparable to a human mecha.
"Da Da Da!"
The gunflame unscrupulously vented from the muzzle of the gun, and two bursts of orange-red light illuminated his face.
The tracer bullets in the ammunition formed two chains of light and swung out in a slight arc.
Hit the Nightshade Wolf Cavalry at the front with a hard hit.
12.7 caliber ammunition, each with thumb thickness.
Neither the charge nor the muzzle kinetic energy can be compared with small and medium-caliber rifle cartridges.
As low-level monsters, the Nightshade Wolf and Goblin don't have much chaotic magic that they can use to protect their bodies, and under the bombardment of heavy machine gun bullets, they first have passive energy to contain their actions, and then the huge bullet head penetrates their bodies, leaving a large hole like a bowl.
Steaming bullet holes are thrown from both sides, and chains are fed progressively from the back magazine.
Under the pressure of gunpowder gases in the chamber, the barrel and bolt recoiled at the same time.
But this bit of recoil is not worth mentioning for Chen!
After he opened fire, the kitten lady Rebecca also gritted her silver teeth and pulled the trigger with the body of the gun.
The chain of light swept out like a whip, swinging into the goblin cluster behind the Nightshade Wolf Cavalry.
For these ugly and evil monsters, the kitten lady is full of hatred.
"Goblins must die!
The catharsis of ammunition makes her feel inexplicably excited, and the image of the petite cat lady carrying a heavy machine gun brings a stark contrast.
She licked her lips as if she could lick out the taste of blood.
The calmest of the all was Ophelia, who calmly fired in semi-automatic mode, firing with precision and a series of bursting bean-like shots.
After all, it is a heavy machine gun that has set a sniper record, and in semi-automatic mode, the accuracy is amazing.
In addition, Ophelia's physique can fully control this noisy firepower monster, and it is 120% of its performance.
The four chains of light became the most beautiful scenery on the defense line of the temporary city wall.
The firepower that unleashed the fury was many times better than those arrows.
After the three of them opened fire, they immediately attracted the attention of everyone around them.
Where the light chain swept, goblin flesh flew sideways, turning into puddles of minced flesh under the bombardment of large-caliber ammunition.
Severed limbs, broken bodies, and severed skulls are everywhere, and it is difficult to distinguish them at all.
They howled and fell from the Nightshade's back, only to be torn apart in the barrage.
In the face of such astonishing firepower, the mighty goblin cluster was like a rag, being quickly cut by a sharp cutter!
In addition, the arrows and various colors of magic also rained down.
A real death barrier is formed.
Occasionally, scattered Nightshade Wolf cavalry rushed under the wall, and before they could leap, they were pierced through the head by spears that pierced through the gaps in their shields.
The low-level goblins were as brittle as cookies, and it wasn't until the more physically fit bear goblins advanced to the front that the situation changed slightly.
They lowered their heads, covered their heads with sticks and arms, and rushed forward without hesitation.
In this situation, a horde of bear goblins finally rushed under the wall, and they slammed into the wall of wood and stone cores.
Although they could not escape their fate under the wall, their muscular bodies raised the ground below.
This is the ladder to victory forged by flesh and blood.
The goblin archers grabbed short wooden bows and shot continuously, throwing a rain of smaller arrows.
Most of the wooden arrows were blocked by the shield wall, and only a few were able to pass over the wall.
These goblin archers can only shoot an average of two or three arrows before they die under the attack of the defenders.
The original intertwined thorny ground was filled in a small part by the flesh and blood of the monster in a blink of an eye.
At the same time, the giant rhinoceros-like monsters that followed the goblin cluster behind also stopped.
They are six or seven meters long, with limbs like thick elephant feet, and they are as immobile as mountains when they land steadily.
These behemoths have rhinoceros-like heads and a pangolin-like back.
When they stand still, their dorsal shells squirm and peek out of their backs with a tubular cavity.
In just a moment, the manic chaotic magic accumulated in these cavities, and finally condensed into a basketball-sized black ball of light.
Each ball of light swirled with black smoke, shooting out as it was charged.
There was no sound, only a dozen black balls of light shooting backwards in a parabolic trajectory.
Just as they were about to fall, light curtains of different colors rose one after another.
The ball of light exploded as it smashed into the light curtain, rippling in circles, and the irritable chaotic magic escaped in all directions until it turned into wisps of black smoke and disappeared.
The attack was successfully fed, but then the behemoths shot out round after round of black balls of light.
And as time passed, the other two monster phalanxes in the rear also arrived on the battlefield one after another.
The headless stone demons covered in stone skin grabbed the stone bullets, and the eyes on their chests locked on the front, and they cooperated with the light ball giant beast to throw stone bullets one after another.
The rudimentary wooden walls of the original Collo León farm were destroyed by stone bullets.
When the Goblin Cannon Fodder Legion was taking damage and was quickly wiped out.
The monsters' long-range offensive is also in full swing.
In addition to the Light Ball Behemoth and the Headless Stone Demon, there were also hundreds of Eye Demons who secretly poked and prodded around.
They extend crimson meridian tentacles to connect with each other.
Then the giant eyes flashed, shooting out beams of light.
The three-meter-tall third-order Minotaur Knot Array with a log shield wall blocked in front of them, blocking those escaped ranged attacks for them.
The chaotic magic stretched along their bodies to the surface of the shield, greatly enhancing the defensive power of the wooden shield.
These balls of light, stone projectiles, and beams of light continued to hit the various colored magical light curtains, and they seemed to have no effect except for ripples.
But anyone with a discerning eye knows that these magical energy shields arranged on the temporary front will not last long at all.
At this rate of attack, the damage threshold of the shield will soon be reached.
At that time, adventurers and mercenaries stationed inside and outside the city walls will face the long-range attacks of the monsters.
Fortunately, more than half of the goblin clusters were strangled in this short period of time.
Most of the monsters failed to break through to the vicinity of the walls.
The corpses covered most of the gaps in the thorny ground, making it look like a mire of dark flesh flowing.
