Chapter 952: The Last Defense
The fist slammed into one of the guards' chests. The creature weapon's chest sank silently, and then a large cloud of flesh and armor spurted out of its back, forming a gap the size of a sea bowl. The guards were powerless to fall, and behind it, more than a dozen guards affected by the force of the fist all fell and flew, and after falling to the ground, they could not get up again.
The light fell on Ba Jin's face, and the Amanda patriarch had already activated the orc posture at some point, and the earthy yellow void energy stone on his body was shining with misty light and flames. However, this layer of light seemed a little dim, just like Ba Jin's mood at the moment.
It's dusk.
The light from the radiation cloud was blood-red, and Ba Jin's body was covered in blood. There are guards, there are compatriots, and there are his own.
He looked around, and as far as his eyes could see, there were corpses.
The war lasted a whole day!
Barking had exhausted all the art of command he knew, and with the assistance of Elder Wieg and his people, Barking was at ease with the entire army. With the mastery of the Elemental Domain and many war machines, he remotely pinned down some of the Guard's forces, while himself, the other Patriarchs, and all the infantry soldiers stood against the front-line battlefield, stopping the Guard's pace.
Among them, there is no lack of tactics such as mobilizing elites to launch intersperse, divide, and strangle against the army of guards.
Ba Jin can be sure that if the other party is not a biological weapon, he would have retreated early under such constantly interspersed tactics.
But these things are goddamn biological weapons.
Biological weapons do not understand fear, they are tireless, they are like machines that can fight endlessly. But Ba Jin can't, and neither can his countrymen. So in the eyes of the alien soldiers, Ba Jin saw fear creep back into the eyes of these warriors.
But he was powerless to change that.
Perhaps, there is no hope. Ba Jin thought.
He didn't want to admit it, but the facts were in front of him. Of course, they will not perish immediately. Ba Jin could command the entire army to retreat into the village and even the holy city of Ukhala, using the small space and biological weapons to engage in street fighting. But street fighting is definitely the last option, which will involve the elderly and children. Not to mention even if there is a street fight, but after that?
How long will it last?
A day, or 12 hours?
If you lose even the street fight, it's completely over.
"Barkin!"
A voice suddenly sounded in his head, and Ba Jin thought that it was the patriarch who had contacted him through the Spiritual Rainbow Bridge. But the voice, as familiar as it sounded, did not seem to belong to any of the patriarchs.
"Barkin, it's me, Zero!"
Ba Jin's pupils shrank, and he responded in his will: "This can't be!"
"Look, I don't have time to explain to you how I did it. In short, you have to trust me......"
"Soon, a flood will enter your battlefield. All you have to do is direct the troops to withdraw to safety. I see that you have built quite a few villages on the outskirts of Ukhara, and there are high walls, which should be enough to withstand the floods. Understand, retreat into the village, Bajin!"
Ba Jin hesitated, "How do I know if you're some goddamn creature simulating my friend's voice?"
"Ba Jin, I'm not kidding, if you don't leave, even you will be swept away by the flood. Zero's voice seemed a little anxious, and he paused suddenly, and then said, "Hey, this is Cayton? ”
"Okay Kaiton, you might be able to help me verify that. Damn, didn't you wish you could fill a house with a truckload of cigars? Tell Barkin, will those creatures know about your wish? If I'm not mistaken, you made this wish before they appeared!"
There was a fluctuation of will in the spiritual rainbow bridge, and then Kaiton's voice sounded in Ba Jin's head: "If these biological weapons don't have mind reading skills, then I believe that this shouting guy is Zero that kid, Ba Jin Patriarch." ”
A smile finally appeared on Ba Jin's face: "Okay Zero, I don't know how you did it, but I believe in you, friend." ”
"Retreat, everyone retreat into the village, right now!"
The alien army began to retreat, and the Badin and other patriarchs and elite warriors formed a line of defense to intercept the guards, so that the other alien soldiers had enough time to evacuate. Ba Jin and the others are also fighting and retreating, and the biological weapons are pressing forward step by step. Seeing that the defense line was about to be unable to stop their attack, Ba Jin suddenly heard the sound of water.
It was like the sound of water hitting the shore of a lake, but it was some distance from the holy lake, and it was impossible to hear the sound of water. Suddenly, a water curtain was suddenly lifted behind a mountain bag hundreds of meters away on the right, and the water curtain smashed down, forming a torrent rushing towards this side. The sound of the water was like thunder, the torrent was rolling in, and Ba Jin yelled: "Quickly go back!"
He mustered his strength and threw several punches, blasting out several pillars of earthy yellow light to force the guards back, and then ordered the entire line of defense to retreat.
The flood was menacing, and the distance of hundreds of meters was instantaneous. Some of the guards didn't forget to chase down Ba Jin and them, but before the biological weapons could catch up with the aliens, the rolling waves had already crashed into them, and the huge impact knocked the guards away, and more were swept into the waves.
Ba Jin and his men entered the village before the torrent arrived, and the torrent of water crashed against the high walls of the village's perimeter, rushing through countless camps entrenched in the wilderness, and even some of the Hellfire chariots that had not had time to withdraw to the village were washed away and scattered, turning into some logs floating on the water.
There were more guards in the water, creatures whose limbs were slashing and kicking, but they were helplessly swept away by the torrent.
The flood water poured for thousands of kilometers and lasted for about ten minutes before the water level gradually receded. Ba Jin stood at the head of the wall, and the land near it was already a vast ocean, and it was only then that he realized that the battlefield they had chosen was located in a low-lying area of a hilly area. When the flood came, it temporarily formed a river, isolating a large number of biological weapons on the other side of the river.
At this moment, on the edge of the holy lake, Zero took a big breath, and the void energy stone on his body sank into his body. After deciding to create a man-made flood, he almost did not stop, crossing mountains and mountains to reach the holy lake. At full speed, he finally made it to the sacred lake before sunset. The water level of the sacred lake has dropped by almost half, while several tributaries that flow through the Twilight Forest have been blocked by boulders.
Of course, it was Zero's handiwork, and of course, it wasn't enough to intercept a tributary to the Twilight Forest, and Zero did a lot more than that. Almost around the sacred lake, all the tributaries that flowed to it were blocked by Zero, and after deliberate impoundment, when the water level reached the calculated height of zero, he blasted a gap in the shore of the lake in the direction of the Ukara War, and used the terrain to make the torrent pour down from top to bottom, and finally scattered the biological weapons in one fell swoop.
To be able to do this, in addition to the environmental data collected by Ansula and the targeted calculations, it is more a matter of luck. Now it seems that the luck of the alien race is not bad. Zero also had a bit of luck, and the observer attached himself to a Sodo in time, and through him, he connected to Zero's will, allowing Zero to use the Spirit Rainbow Bridge to remind Ba Jin to withdraw his troops in advance.
Otherwise, perhaps the flood washed away more than just biological weapons.
It's night, but the battle continues.
The flood water had largely receded after two hours, and the lake was absorbed by the earth, or it flowed down the terrain. Regardless, Zero has at least bought a two-hour buffer for the aliens.
When the water receded, the guards did not rush to attack, and a large number of their companions rushed downstream, and while waiting for the army to regroup, some of the lucky ones who were not swept away by the water began to devour the corpses of the battlefield. The corpses of both alien and homogeneous ones were torn apart and devoured by them. Biological weapons are tireless, but their physical strength and energy are depleted.
If there is consumption, there must be replenishment.
For this reason, Ba Jin and the alien warriors fought several times, just to fight for the corpses of some of their compatriots so that they would not fall into the hands of the guards. In addition to paying the least respect to the war dead, it is also to prevent the guards from getting enough "food".
During this time, Zero came to one of the villages and met Ba Jin and the others.
After another two hours, the guards regrouped and attacked. By this time, the corpses on the battlefield had been reduced by two-thirds, and the reduced part had become food for the guards. After these biological weapons were replenished, they began to attack the alien race.
The battlefield shifted from the wilderness to the villages, whose meter-high walls could not stop the defenders from climbing. For them, a few meters high can be a breath to climb over the wall, and Ba Jin simply let them in, and the village becomes a small battlefield of its own.
These villages are built on hilly terrain, and the undulating terrain, combined with the dense construction and crooked roads, allows the guards to be divided to the greatest extent. Zero is also involved in this war, and the complex and changing environment is his home turf. After asking Ba Jin for a sniper rifle, Zero wanders around the battlefields of several villages, and everywhere he goes, the guards are inexplicably shot in the head.
Ba Jin and the other patriarchs were also scattered to other villages, and in such a limited range of battlefields, the high-ranking powerhouses could play their greatest role.
But even so, the situation is still not in favor of the alien race. As time passed, more and more villages began to fall. Although Zero and Ba Jin and other strong people went around fighting fires, they could only ease the unfavorable situation a little. By the early hours of the morning, half of the village had already been lost. The alien soldiers continued to retreat, and the defensive network shrank again and again, forming more and more resistance.
But everyone has a feeling in their hearts that they are at the end of the crossbow and the follow-up is powerless.
Shadows cast a shadow over the hearts of the people on the battlefield, including Ba Jin. In their eyes, there is no longer the high fighting spirit before the war, and there is only a dim look. But the war does not stop because the morale of the alien race plummets, on the contrary, the attack of biological weapons is more violent.
Zero raised the gun, and when he pressed down the plate, he realized that the bullet had penetrated. He snorted, and a spatial jump appeared directly behind a guard on the street. The sniper rifle swept across as an iron bar, and the body of the gun burst along with the guard's head.
From the room of a small building on the left, the screams of the alien warrior before death were heard, and Zero slammed the door to see the two guards eating the corpse of a warrior. He lunged forward with one lunge, grabbing it with both hands. Carrying two guards to the middle, he fell to the ground, stretched out his feet and stepped on them. Under the action of the reloaded warhead, Zero has a force of several tons per foot, and directly crushes the head of the guard.
Another guard swooped in through the window, and in mid-air it hovered like a wheel, spinning and slicing towards zero. Zero raised his shoulders to close his fist, and the fist blade shone with a pale golden light. A punch blasted out and smashed into the flywheel, and the fist and the guard rubbed off a large spark. However, the Thorn Wheel stopped, and the Zero One punch was punched in the chest, exploding a pillar of blood from behind.
Zero threw away the corpse and jumped out of the window, knocking down the two biological weapons that passed by. With a strong grip of both hands, the spines of these two things were shattered. Looking up again, five or six guards spun like wheels and plowed through the narrow alleyway.
On the other side of the alleyway, two alien soldiers worked together to stab one of the guards to death. As soon as he breathed a sigh of relief, the wall of a low building behind him suddenly burst and cracked. The two of them thought they were enemies, but when they saw that it was zero, they couldn't help but sit down on the ground.
Zero patted the dust on his body and stood up, and beneath his feet were two corpses of guards twisted into strange shapes.
After killing these two guards, the village was finally cleared of its biological weapons. Zero exhaled, and the village was defended.
"How's it going?"
Moments later, Zero arrives in another village. A tulou in the village was used as a command center, and of course, the foreign army was not standardized, so there was no need to expect to see many combat staff officers busy. On the contrary, the hall on the first floor of the tulou was very empty, and all the clutter had been cleaned up earlier, and only a round table was set up. Barking stood at his desk, while Wieg stood in the window on the left. Other than that, there were only two warriors in the hall waiting to be dispatched.
The other patriarchs are all gone, and at this time, as long as they have a little combat power are busy on the battlefield, the patriarchs of all clans naturally have no idleness.
Zero came in and asked, there was a hand-drawn map on the table, and Zero looked at it from a distance. There is a dense circle of red crosses on it, and it seems that the situation is very bad.
Ba Jin shook his head and said, "Although I don't know how you ended up here, thank you for your help, Zero." But now the situation is very unfavorable for us, and if the situation continues to deteriorate, we will need to retreat to Ukhala. That's our last line of defense, so now, are you thinking about leaving? ”
"There's a lot of stuff out there, but it shouldn't be enough to block your movements. ”
Zero shook his head and said, "Ba Jin, do you know why I'm here? It's for those things outside, those biological weapons are called guards, and the first thing they attacked was Eternal Night City on the west coast, you should know what that place is." ”
"The base camp of the Dark Council, of course I know. Ba Jin spread his hands and said, "So you killed these guys and then came to inform us?"
"Quite the opposite. Zero smiled bitterly, "Eternal Night City is over, and now it is occupied by these monsters." But we had a chance to fight back, and I was going to invite you to join in this fightback. Unexpectedly, these guys actually divided their troops to attack the black land. ”
"Damn, I've never seen anything like this before, how the hell did they come about?"
"Do you remember the purpose of my visit to the Black Land?" said Zero, "I guess you should remember that I came to destroy the heart of an ancient being. Now, what I can tell you is that the thing has woken up. That's right, the Guardian is its minions. And its name, you all have to remember, is that it's called Prosius. ”
"The war, the war on the whole planet, has begun. It's not just you, it's not just us. I believe that other continents are now being invaded by this biological weapon. Zero clenched his fists: "We must be closely linked and fight back with all our strength." Otherwise, we will be cleaned off the planet by Prosius. ”
Barjin and Wiig exchanged glances, and the latter said, "Warrior of the Hundred Battles, now I believe everything you say, because the demons have appeared in our homeland. But as you can see, we've taken care of ourselves. I think you should take Barkin's advice and get out of here immediately, and as for us, we'll find a way to kill all of them. At the very least, it is possible to reduce some enemies for you. ”
"No, no, no, Elder Wig. "As I said before, I need you to actively defend and let the warriors do everything possible to survive. It's not just a well-intentioned encouragement, hold on for a while and we'll have a turnaround. An army is already on the way, my army, we can turn the tide. Believe me, you're far from making the decision to die together. ”
When Ba Jin and Wiig looked at each other, Pan Sen's voice rang out in the spiritual rainbow bridge: "Everyone, maybe you need to take a look outside the village. I'm not sure, but those guys seem to have changed their strategy? Damn, are they going to change their strategy?"
Zero and Ba Jin immediately went upstairs, to the second floor of the small building, and looked out the window into the wilderness outside the village. In the light of the fire, the guards could be seen gathering. The biological weapons retreated from the villages like a tidal wave, and they gathered together and looked in one direction. In the direction that this black wave is pointing, the holy city of Ukara is so obvious.
"Damn, they've shifted their target!" Barkin slammed the wall hard, shaking it faintly. Through the Spiritual Rainbow Bridge, Ba Jin ordered: "Everyone withdraw to Ukhara, quick, we don't have time." ”
Then he said to Zero: "I hope your army arrives soon, it seems that we will not be able to support it for long." ”
Zero looked into the wilderness, and the black tide was rolling on the battlefield of the wilderness. Instead of being entangled in one place and one game, the biological weapons are directed at Ukhara. This strategy can be described as playing into the dead end of the alien race, and Ukara is a city-state that the alien race has to defend in both strategic and symbolic sense. The guards reversed their forces, forcing Bajin to gather all his soldiers and fight these creatures and weapons in the city of Ukhara.
There are still 3 hours left until the Underground Legion arrives!
