I have a city in another world

Chapter 983 The terrifying weapon of the demons outside the sky!
Balgruuf, who was meditating in the team, was also taken aback by the sudden gunshot. He reflexively searched for traces of the enemy in order to launch an effective counterattack.

It's a pity that there are no suspicious traces around, and I don't know where the sneak attacker just now is hiding?

The damn scout didn't even find any trace of the enemy, he should be punished!

"Stop advancing, stay alert!"

Following Balgruuf's order, the marching team immediately turned around to face both sides of the road, and lined up the shields in their hands one by one to form a shield wall.

The soldiers behind also quickly moved forward, and on the existing shield wall, another shield was stacked, thus forming a simple defensive position that could withstand the rain of arrows.

Among the warriors protected by the shield wall, except for some who put their spears on the shield wall, the rest of them squatted on the ground with their swords out of their sheaths, paying attention to the surrounding situation tensely.

Archers and crossbowmen are ready to fight back effectively after being ambushed at any time.

"Let's go ahead and have a look!"

Under the protection of a group of guards, Balgruf jumped off his horse and walked to the front of the team. He quickly saw the dozen or so soldiers with injured legs.

They were all lying within the boundaries of the stele, with pain on their faces, and some were desperately crawling towards the direction of the team.

Seeing this, the two soldiers rushed over immediately, trying to help their companions up.

But just after the two soldiers crossed the boundary of the stele, there were two more crisp sounds, and then two clusters of blood sprang up on the thighs of the two soldiers, and they fell to the ground screaming!
After seeing this scene, Balgruuf narrowed his eyes slightly, hid behind the shield wall made up of guards, and stared fixedly at the forest ahead.

Although the attack speed just now was extremely fast, he could vaguely see a trace, and he also confirmed that the attacker was hiding in the woods ahead.

The intention of the other party is obvious, just like what is written on the stone tablet, any outsiders are strictly prohibited from entering, otherwise they will be severely punished!

Obviously, these dozen soldiers were attacked by the opponent because they violated the warning on the stele and crossed the line.

He didn't shoot directly, obviously there was a warning element.

This kind of weird and sharp weapon reminded Balgruf of what was mentioned in the previous intelligence, and he couldn't help feeling dreadful.

However, under such circumstances, Balgruf must not show weakness, otherwise the morale of the army would be frustrated, and it would be better to simply go back home.

What's more, he has a reason to get rid of the demons outside the sky, no matter how strong the opponent is, he must try it!
"You guys put on your shields, go to the front!"

Out of prudent considerations, Balgruuf did not order to forcibly advance, but ordered the soldiers to try again.

The soldiers who were named looked at each other. Although there was a trace of fear in their eyes, they immediately raised the shield covered with animal skins in their hands, covered their bodies as much as possible, and moved forward cautiously.

These soldiers did not dare to resist Balgruf's order, so they could only bite the bullet and move forward.

However, when their bodies crossed the invisible boundary, the expected gunfire sounded again, and then under the gaze of everyone, the hardwood shield, which was strong enough to withstand heavy arrows, was directly smashed to pieces.

The soldiers hiding behind the shields were not so lucky this time. Because they lowered their bodies, their heads and chests became the targets of the attack. After the bullets penetrated the shields, they penetrated their bodies.

After a large amount of blood was sprayed on their backs and heads, horrible blood holes appeared behind the bodies of these soldiers, and their corpses collapsed limply on the ground.

Seeing this scene, the soldiers in Snowman City immediately became agitated, while Balgruuf's expression changed.

The power of the weapons of the demons outside the sky is so powerful!

Thinking that he was being exposed to the range of this terrifying weapon, Balgruuf felt his heart tremble. He glanced at the shields held up by the surrounding guards, as if he always felt that it was not safe.

"The whole army obeys the order and retreats 200 meters."

As soon as the order was issued, the team immediately shrank back like flowing water.

After the team stopped, Balgruuf took a few steps back subconsciously, trying to hide himself behind the crowd as much as possible.

Immediately after his order, a group of soldiers held their shields high and formed a semicircular shield wall in front of him again.

Balgruuf felt a little relieved, and at the same time issued orders one after another.

More than a dozen monks who are good at using bows and arrows were quickly mobilized to poke out sharp cone-headed arrows through the gaps in the shields.

Under the sunlight, these cone-headed arrows shone faintly, obviously they were enchanted weapons.

"You guys, replace me with a metal shield and try again!"

Balgruuf wanted to test out how powerful this weapon was, so as not to be caught off guard once the battle started.

However, judging from the current situation, this weapon is extremely lethal, enough to pose a fatal threat to ordinary soldiers.

Ordinary hardwood shields, as well as the leather armor worn by soldiers, can't resist the attack of this weapon at all!

If the Outer Sky Demons possess a large number of similar weapons, then once this battle takes place, Balgruuf's soldiers will inevitably suffer extremely heavy casualties!

This kind of result, Balgruuf does not want to see.

The soldiers who were targeted were already holding their metal shields tremblingly, and slowly moved forward under the gaze of the eyes behind them.

Most of the soldiers who were shot in the legs had crawled back, only a few were still lying in a pool of blood, and seemed to have passed out due to excessive bleeding.

The bodies of several soldiers who were shot were also lying on the blood-soaked grass, staring at them with lifeless eyes.

The legs of several soldiers were trembling with fear, but they did not dare to retreat at all, because some of those sharp arrows also aimed at their backs.

There is no doubt that they will die if they resist orders and retreat, but they may save their lives if they move forward. After all, they are holding metal shields, which should be able to withstand that kind of weird weapon attack!
Thinking of this, their confidence increased a bit, and they finally stepped into the land behind the stele.

At this moment, everyone's eyes were wide open, staring at the soldiers intently.

"boom!"

The chilling voice came out again, but compared to the first two times, this time it was much duller.

At the same time, there was the sound of the metal shield being hit hard.At the same time, the bodies of those soldiers froze, and a large blood mist mixed with flesh and bones suddenly sprayed out, completely blocking everyone's sight.

Facts have proved that even a metal shield cannot withstand the attack of this strange weapon!
"Whoosh whoosh!"

At the same time as these pathfinding soldiers were hit, more than a dozen enchanted sharp arrows flew out with the sound of piercing through the air, heading straight for the dense forest.

The flying distance of this enchanted sharp arrow is extremely long, and the penetrating power is also extremely amazing. Under the operation of the native monks, it can also shoot through metal shields!

The only regret is that the cost of this weapon is too high, only those indigenous monks can afford it!

Those native monks who had already been ready to go, locked on the location of the sound the moment the gunshot sounded just now, and launched the attack without hesitation.

"Continue to shoot at me and suppress the opponent's attack. You rush up to me, and you must get the opponent's weapon!"

Shock and greed flashed across Balgruuf's eyes. He had already coveted this sharp weapon.

If he can obtain this kind of weapon and manufacture equipment in large quantities, even if the coalition forces formed by other forces come, he will not be afraid!

Even relying on this weapon, it is not impossible for him to conquer the surrounding provinces, and even the entire continent of Tamriel!

At that time, he will be the king of the entire continent, and everyone will submit to his rule.

So even if he paid some casualties, he must get this weapon!
