86 The "Sea of Fire" is coming
Not long after Fan Yue and the others settled down in the City Lord's Mansion, the soldiers who were sticking to the city wall saw the enemy they were about to face this time. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The soldiers, who were accustomed to the overwhelming demon beasts before, couldn't help but feel their scalps tingle at the moment, only to feel that everywhere they saw was a fiery red, like a sea of fire spreading from the east.
Everything along the way, whether it was flowers and trees or those demon beasts that fell too slowly at the end of the beast tide, were all ruthlessly devoured by this sea of fire, without exception!
When the sea of fire reached a distance of five miles from Yungui City, the soldiers on the city wall finally saw the true face of the sea of fire.
What kind of sea of fire is this, it is clearly a wave composed of dense crimson monsters!
These monsters are all baby-sized, and they come in a variety of forms, such as eight-legged spiders, four-legged wolves, and unlegged fire pythons...... But the common denominator of these monsters of different shapes is that they are all made of fiery red rocks, and the soldiers immediately gave them the name of the fiery rock monster.
And the red color of their bodies is not because they were born like this, but because of the blazing heat, as long as those grass and wood monsters are touched by these fire rock monsters, then they will only be scorched by the blazing heat on their bodies.
What a horrible heat, what a horrible quantity, what a horrible scene!
The soldiers on the city wall had already entered a state of combat readiness when the "Sea of Fire" was close to Yungui City, and those soldiers who were slightly mature and stable were still calm, but some soldiers who were not yet experienced and had not gone through a few beast tides had begun to tremble slightly with their hands holding magic weapons.
The Captain of Soldiers of course noticed the change in the mood of the soldiers, but he did not allow the soldiers to remain afraid when they were in battle.
Fear is contagious, and it is the most deadly emotion when it comes to fighting a strong enemy, and it is likely to lead to the rout of a battle.
"Cheer up! Behind us is the Yungui City on which we live, and in it are our beloved city lords, our dear family members, and many others who need our protection! And what we are looking for is an intruder who wants to invade our territory, harm our guards, and have nothing to do with us! You say, can we retreat?"
"Can't!"
"Can we be afraid?"
"Can't!"
"What should we do with these intruders?"
"Kill, kill, kill!"
The sound of killing on the city wall shook the sky, all the soldiers, whether they were calm or afraid before, at this moment they were flushed, their eyes showed a fierce light, staring at the "sea of fire" that was getting closer and closer to the city wall, and the green tendons on the back of the hand holding the magic weapon burst out, just waiting for the soldier to give an order to blast the magic weapon in his hand to the fire rock monster in the sea of fire.
One mile, eight hundred paces, and finally, when the sea of fire was only six hundred steps away from the city wall, the chief soldier gave an order to the soldiers who had been gathering strength for a long time.
"Crossbowman, let's go!"
At the sound of an order, the crossbowman pulled the mechanism, and more than ten crossbow arrows infused with spiritual power fired in unison, and the oversized crossbow arrows with the thickness of the arm shone with silver brilliance around them, and shot into the sea of blood with the momentum of ten thousand jun.
"Boom" There was a loud earth-shattering sound, and the crossbow arrows infused with spiritual energy pierced straight into the sea of blood, instantly nailing more than a dozen fire rock monsters to pieces, and the powerful impact did not stop there, but continued to plunge deep into the ground.
The hard ground shattered and splashed under the impact of the crossbow arrows, and the sand and stones flew in all directions, and every grain of sand and stone shot through the igneous rock monsters like a heart-piercing arrow.
Suddenly, more than 100 fire rock monsters flew out in all directions, like a wave of crossbow arrows in the sea of fire.
Dozens of crossbow arrows slammed into the sea of fire, forming dozens of red waves in the sea of fire.
However, the sea of fire seemed endless, and the waves that were blasted out by the crossbow arrows only appeared for a moment, and then they were filled by the fire rock monsters that came and went.
Even the half-stuck bolts were charred into ashes as if nothing had happened.
But this situation was no longer enough to terrify the soldiers on the city walls, they were all warriors who regarded death as if they were home, and as long as they had a breath left, they would never let these fire rock monsters rush into the city of clouds.
The sea of fire was approaching again, and it had entered the range of three hundred paces of the city wall.
The soldier commander gave another order: "Archer, release!"
Three hundred archers who were already holding their horned bows like a full moon stepped forward, and a trace of spiritual power was transmitted from the fingers of the hooked string into the arrows, and dazzling brilliance appeared on the body of the arrows, and the terrifying power was permeated.
With the order of the soldier, three hundred divine arrows pierced into the sea of blood, although not as powerful as the crossbow arrows shot by the strong crossbow defending the city, but each light arrow still accurately and ruthlessly crushed at least one fire rock monster, and the flying sand and stones made at least four or five fire rock monsters either dead or maimed.
"Change!"
At the sound of the order, the first batch of 300 archers who stepped forward retreated together, and the other 300 archers who had been gathering momentum for a long time stepped forward to fill the position, and another round of 100 arrows was fired.
The three classes of archers cooperated seamlessly, and it only took a moment between each substitution, but when the three classes of archers rotated two rounds, during which the strong crossbow fired the bow again, the sea of fire formed by the fire rock monster had already entered within fifty steps of Yungui City.
"Carry the hand, prepare!"
All the archers retreated, and three soldiers appeared in each battlement, and in the middle of each of them was a tall bronze tripod, and the bronze tripod was engraved with incomparably mysterious lines around the body.
The three tripod bearers stood in a triangular position, and the slightest spiritual power in their palms was stimulated and poured into the copper tripod, and the copper tripod gradually rose from the city wall under the concerted efforts of the three tripod bearers and moved outside the city wall.
"Put!"
With this order, fifty-four bronze tripods fell from the sky, and the rumbling sound continued to sound.
If the previous strong crossbows splashed a few waves in the sea of fire, then now these copper tripods set off huge waves.
The fire rock monster suffered heavy losses, and a clearing was suddenly cleared under the city walls.
The continuous spiritual power on the copper tripod is connected together, and it is connected outside the city wall, converging into a colorful light curtain.
The fire rock monster was blocked by the light curtain, and even if it pounced on the light curtain one after another, it was still difficult to escape the fate of being twisted into pieces by the light curtain.
The indomitable sea of fire was finally hindered under the Yungui City, and from the high heavens, the Yungui City was like a small island in a sea of fire, although it stood tenacious, it seemed so precarious under the continuous invasion of the vast sea of fire.
The defenders of the city did not seem much relieved by this temporary victory, and they understood that the light curtain formed by the copper tripod was time-limited after all.
As soon as the time limit expired, they had to face the fire monsters on an even more ferocious attack.
