Three different monster phalanxes were clustered four hundred meters away.

At the forefront are a group of pig-shaped monsters with bulging backs and black cuticles.

"Damn, that's a black pig!"

"A second-order monster known for its defense and burst dash!"

The well-informed adventurer shouted in a hoarse, elongated tone.

Each of the black-armored pigs was pulling on its hind legs, looking ready to attack.

They are about 3 meters long and about 1.2 meters tall at the shoulders.

It looks about the same size as the Jimny SUV in Blue Star.

The spine carapace stretched along the curve of its back, like a giant boar draped in a curved steel plate.

The carapace has a dull matte finish with a sense of heaviness.

There are also two curved fangs about 30 centimeters long under the arched nose of the black armor pig.

It is conceivable that if these guys collectively launch a pig spurt, it will definitely be a mudslide on the front.

"Not only that, but there are dog demons in the back!"

The Eagle-Eyed Marksman stood on the watchtower and reminded loudly.

Pressing behind the black armor pig was a black magic dog that was not much smaller than the Blue Star Siberian Tiger.

They are third-order dog demons, with dense hair all over their bodies, exploding like lions, and their forelimbs are like timber wolves, but their ears are pointed upward, which looks somewhat similar to the ears of goblins.

In addition, the dog demon also has a bat-like head, and its face is relatively flat, except for the large mouth full of sharp teeth.

All of the canines maintain a low-pitched posture, which is a common posture for wolves when hunting.

Behind that, a large cloud of dust drifted up, and the ground trembled incessantly, making it difficult for the defenders to see it realistically.

In addition to the newly gathered monster phalanx on the ground, the Death Light Demon Rhino, Eye Demon, and Headless Stone Demon in the back are also increasing their troops, and the total number of them has changed from more than a hundred to hundreds now.

This means that the density of ranged attacks in the next round of the monster cube will increase several times!

The most striking thing is not the ground monsters, but the flying monsters that gather together like dark clouds in the sky.

Thousands of flying monsters loomed into smaller aerial warbands.

The sound of their wings flapping together becomes a murmur that rattles the eardrums.

Moreover, the level of these flying monsters is not low, they are generally starting from the third order, and the strength of the single body can completely benchmark the adventurers between the bronze level and the silver level.

"Oh my God! That's the Batwing Demon, the Poison Vulture, and the Heartrotten Eagle! ”

"Among them, the Rotten Heart Demon Eagle is a fourth-order monster that can destroy stone walls with a single claw!"

Many adventurers recognized the origin of those flying monsters, and their tones were full of awe.

You must know that flying monsters are naturally more difficult to deal with than ground monsters.

There are no limitations on the ground in the air, and flying high, low, or fast and slow can bring different changes in position.

To put it simply, the airspace is far more three-dimensional than the ground area.

In particular, a large number of flying monsters fought together with the ground monsters, which greatly increased the difficulty of defense.

The difficulty of defending increases exponentially as the defensive surface increases.

It is no exaggeration to say that the addition of flying monsters will increase the defensive pressure on the outer defense line several times.

Among the three flying monsters that were recognized by name, it goes without saying that the batwing demon often appears scattered in the airspace around Magdam City, like a large bat, with a standard body length of 2~3 meters, and a medium flight speed, but can maintain high speed in small and cramped caves or other similar environments.

It is also capable of sonic attacks and pathfinding, ignoring most visual shielding effects, such as "blinding", "nightfall", "fog", and so on.

It's a very difficult flying monster.

The vulture's claws and beak are poisonous, and as long as it hits the wound, it will be contaminated with toxins.

Sophie, the original Heart-Peeling Succubus, was poisoned and injured after a battle with a newborn cave guard-level poison vulture, and was picked up by the boar man Ragnar.

There is also a difference in rank between the same kind of monsters.

The venomous vultures that appeared now were all ordinary third-order monsters, not at the town level, and they were about the same size as those batwing demons, with slender necks and two more flexible claws.

They are adept at swooping down, are cruel and cunning, and rarely face their enemies head-on.

Most of the time, they hovered over the battlefield, waiting for an opportunity to launch a surprise attack on an enemy who was out of shape or paralyzed.

As for the Heartless Eagle, it is a large flying monster.

It has a wingspan of more than fifteen meters and a body length of seven to eight meters.

The claws resemble the big buckets of an excavator, and the feathers on the edges of the wings are as sharp as knives.

With a knife-wheel-like feather on its neck and a hook-like beak that makes it even more ferocious, this giant eagle can fly a large number of human adventurers with a single claw.

Even the chest and abdomen are covered with hard feathers, and the full chest muscles give them the endurance to fly long distances.

It's just that these birds of prey monsters have an oval-shaped black heart embedded in their chests.

This heart is only the size of a honeydew melon, surrounded by dense blood vessels and veins, and it is constantly beating.

It is also the origin of the name of the Rotten Heart Eagle.

The exposed heart is also one of the few weak points on their body.

Most of the time, the Demon Eagle will deliberately lower its head and use the feathers on its neck to cover the weakness on its chest.

There aren't many of these tough guys, about forty or fifty.

Due to its huge size, each Rotten Heart Demon Eagle stands out among the flying monsters.

Chen Xuan's book was not read in vain, and almost instantly, the information about these related monsters appeared in his mind.

During this long war, which lasted for thousands of Naroa years, most of the monsters were included in the illustrated books compiled by the natives.

In addition, the sentries on the tower also found the existence of several demons that were obviously guard-level monsters, and they were mingling around those long-range monsters in the rear, looking like commanders.

"Roar!"

The stalemate and standoff did not last long.

When the monsters were assembled, an inexplicable roar appeared.

As if the order to charge was sounded, the black-armored pig at the forefront ran wildly almost at the same time.

Stout hooves and legs tread over the muddy ground washed away by the waves.

Crushed the goblin stumps piled up on the edge of the Thornlands, splattering the sky with shredded flesh and sludge.

This makes the black pig quickly turn into a mud pig.

In front of them, the thorns that could effectively stop the goblins' advance were brutally trampled down.

A total of more than 5,000 black-backed pigs, pouring into the sandwich city wall, the scene is actually a bit spectacular.

The chaotic magic of all the Blackback Pigs was all together, forming a defense that seemed to be one.

The city's giant crossbow was fired again, and the bolts of the arm's arm were wrapped in strong wind and shot at the pigs.

"Boom!"

"Bell!"

The rune-glowing armor-piercing crossbow bolt pierced through the chaotic magic and struck the spine of a black-backed pig, instantly emitting a sound of gold and iron.

The black-backed pig that had been hit directly flew upside down on the spot, and the huge crossbow bolt was stuck behind it, and the black blood gushed out, obviously dead.

The power of the City Crossbow is undeniable, especially when dealing with a single target.

But everyone understands that the city crossbow is actually not very effective against black-backed pigs.

Because before, each armor-piercing crossbow could break more than a dozen goblins, but now only one can be killed.

And there are only a dozen crossbows in the outer defense line, and there are not many arrows.

The crossbow string has the possibility of breaking at any time under continuous firing.

The durability of the city machinery is not very high, and the more powerful it is, the greater the wear and tear.

In this way, it can also be seen that the defense of the blackback pig is far from being comparable to that of the goblin.

Especially after they have formed a scale, it is even more terrifying.

As the black-backed pigs broke in, the crossbow shooters also collectively shot a rain of arrows.

Torrential arrows rained down on the blackback pigs, creating ripples in circles on the chaotic magic.

In other words, the effect of this rain of arrows is better than nothing, and at best, it consumes some of the chaotic mana reserves of the blackback pig cluster.

On the contrary, magic played a slight role in blocking.

Especially natural and earth-based magic.

From time to time, vines and thorns sprouted on the ground, blocking the charge of some of the black-backed pigs.

For things like charges, rhythm is important.

The front row is slightly disrupted, and the back is easy to crowd and trample, and it becomes a pot of porridge.

Behind the black-backed pigs are dog demons numbering about 3,000 heads.

These guys have a sturdy posture, and obviously have faster speed than the black-backed pig, but they don't speed up, and slyly follow the black-backed pig to advance.

When they advance under the walls, they will leap into attack.

The dying rhinoceros in the distance recovered and poked out of the tubular cavity again, shooting black balls of light.

The Eye Demons are connected by mysterious veins, shooting beams of light.

The Headless Golem split into two parts, one of which continued to throw stone projectiles.

The rest grabbed a stray goblin with a bulging belly and a pained face, and threw them towards the line.

The goblins burst their bellies before and after they landed, exploding in flames.

This round of battle has just begun, and it has entered the white heat.

On the defenders' side, various colors of magical energy shields rose up.

But under this attack intensity, it obviously can't hold on for long.

The adventurers and mercenaries in charge of melee combat suddenly became nervous.

Everyone understands that hand-to-hand combat is inevitable.

It is worth mentioning that behind the dog demon, the ground trembled violently, and from time to time there were plots of uplift, and it was obvious that a monster was attacking the defense line from underground!

This wave of monsters seemed to be ready for a bang, and there was no intention of tempting.

The defensive line became very stressed in an instant.

And that's when those flying monsters didn't attack.

Chen Xuan dual-wielded the M2 heavy machine gun, and began to output frantically with the help of the cover of the magic energy shield.

Ophelia stays with Kitty Lady, she has a silver-level magic cultivation, while Rebecca only has a bronze level.

Ophelia can protect her if necessary.

In this way, Chen Xuan can let go of his hands and feet and shoot happily!

In front of him, two chains of light made up of 12.7 mm ammunition swept towards the cluster of blackback pigs.

It's different from the mowing of the grass when dealing with goblins.

This time, after the light chain hit, it felt a little muddy cow into the sea.

An average of 15~18 rounds can stop a black-backed pig.

The 12.7×99mm normal bullet reduces its power by at least 70% after penetrating the magic of chaos.

The bullet that followed was able to break through the defense after hitting the spine, but the wound caused was only the size of a teacup, which was nothing compared to the huge body of the black-backed pig.

So on average, it takes at least a dozen hits before the blackback pig can be injured and stopped.

This thing's vitality is extremely tenacious, and even after being seriously injured, it still has the strength to move forward.

It's just that the vast majority of injured blackback pigs will be trampled to death by their companions because of their slowing down.

But even if he couldn't experience the joy of mowing the grass again, Chen Xuan didn't stop attacking.

His barrage complements the attack strength of the city defense, and for each additional point output, the defense of the Blackback Pig Cluster decreases by one point.

The three masters and servants shot out four chains of light, two by two, trying their best to stop the advance of the blackback pig cluster.

Regardless of their hoofed charge, they quickly advanced less than a hundred meters from the sandwich wall.

"Attention all! Magic Trap Activated! ”

The temporary commander at the scene shouted loudly.

His voice was quickly drowned out, but in the next second, the position more than a hundred meters in front of everyone changed drastically.

Running at the front, about two-fifths of the black-backed pigs fell into the pit.

Then pillars of fire wrapped in red flames rose into the sky!

In the blink of an eye, the pit turned into a fire pit.

The flames were blazing, and the orange-red flames even lit up the faces of the defenders at the front.

Chen Xuan saw with his own eyes that many black-backed pigs jumped out of the edge of the fire pit with fire burning all over their bodies, turning into fire pigs and continuing to run wildly.

"Hum-huh..."

The humming of a black-backed pig echoed above the fire pit.

Between the flickering lights and shadows, you can faintly see the shadows of pigs jumping in pain in the fire pit.

Just when everyone thought that this trap could slow down the monster's attack.

"Boom!"

There was a loud noise on the ground.

Several layers of soil up to 100 meters wide rose like waves and pushed towards the fire pit in front of them.

The remaining black-backed pigs and dog demons along the way avoided each other.

Waves of earth rushed to the fire pit and filled it in less than half a minute.

The flames were extinguished.

Chen Xuan did not stop the barrage output, after the light chain swept through those bulging soil layers, he saw that black blood was infiltrating out, and he immediately knew it, and reminded everyone around him loudly.

"Be careful, there should be burrowing worms underground!"

Hearing his words, more than a dozen earth-based spellcasters hurriedly cast solidification techniques one after another around them.

Ground-burrowing worms are adept at digging into the ground, and their large tubular mouths can chew stones.

However, its defense is weak, and it is not difficult to kill it as long as it can accurately lock on to the position.

The burrowing worms didn't rush into the ground, and after filling the fire pit, they retreated to the rear.

And the original landfill site, from time to time, there are flames spraying out of the cracks.

The whole land was glowing with flames and smoke, and it looked extremely hot.

Every now and then, a few burnt black-backed pigs would come out of the ground and howl and rush around

Magical flames aren't so easy to extinguish.

The flame magic array there can sustain at least three minutes of high-intensity spraying.

However, the monsters immediately launched a charge!
