Transcendent Journey

Medium-sized bastions can’t accommodate too many people. The permanent defenders are around 1,200. Other defensive power is stationed in barracks on the banks and in more than 20 cities along the river valley. In the post.

Before the tsunami, there were about 1,000 soldiers belonging to the infantry regiment in Nisk’s barracks. Although the barracks are relatively high, it is still very difficult to say how many troops can be gathered after the tsunami.

Furthermore, when dealing with sea monsters, no matter how many ordinary soldiers come, it is of no use.

So, with the bastion saturated, Major General Coverdale’s order to the infantry barracks was to go to Nisk to rescue the people.

After the alarm sounded.

All the soldiers stationed in the bastion have been fully armed and entered the wartime state, and the gunners ran into the turrets of the second layer of the bastion.

Originally, there were also ground forts and a small outpost on the southern promontory, but because there was no defensive power of the bastion, it was completely destroyed by the tsunami without firing a shot.

The “bastion” on the north side of the promontory has essentially become the last force to guard the entrance to the sea!

There are a total of 32 heavy artillery in the four-corner bastion. There are two 32-pounder Six Sect 24-pounder guns on each corner. Because of the solid foundation, the caliber of the artillery that can be placed on the fixed fort can be changed. Big.

Although this is only a medium-sized bastion as a defense force at the entrance to the sea, it has not been attacked by enemies from the sea since it was built.

But here is still equipped with a 32-pounder gun that Eight Sects can only be equipped on battleships above Level 3.

Especially when facing multiple sea monsters, the ten 8-pounder cannons they had stored in the armory were also transported, which increased the firepower of the bastion again.

Thanks to the unique design of the bastion, no matter where the enemy comes from, they will face 2-3 bastion faces at the same time, suffering from the searing baptism of the firepower net.

At the same time, the Musketeers were also lined up on the “Central Embankment” between the two lobed fortresses. If the sea monster breaks through the firepower net of the outer cannons, they need to fire them at close range.

Even if the lead bullet of the musket is incomparable with the artillery bullet, the formidable power cannot be underestimated under the set fire.

whiz whiz whiz ….

Before the tide receded, the soldiers had just taken their positions, and the sea monsters were already driven by the instinct to hate humans and attacked the bastion. .

Fortunately.

The newly born sea monsters have no way to attack, let alone any cooperation. Some are in front, some are behind, some are reckless and just charge, and some are still waiting for opportunities.

This also gives the “Bastion” the opportunity to defeat them separately!

A strange fish is obviously the fastest and has the simplest mind. The azure black steel-like long body contains explosive power. It can easily take advantage of the force in the sea when its tail is lightly swung, and it continues to accelerate. .

With the hunting instinct rooted in the depths of the bloodline, the hunting instinct was suddenly on the left and then on the right, tumbling from the water like a maniac.

“Load, load!”

The artillery on the side of the bastion facing this strange fish couldn’t help but have their throats dry. Where did they who have been stationed on the coast for a long time have seen this? A terrifying sea monster that only operates in the deep sea?

The body is more than 80 meters long, Barry’s long mouth is full of sharp teeth, and the entire head is covered by a pale bony carapace. His eyes are sunken but fierce, and he looks like he grows. A skullless snake.

There are many thick and short tentacles growing constantly where the skeleton connects with the body, like Medusa terrifying snake hair!

Even if it has not yet entered the best range of the artillery, a brutal and bloodthirsty breath has assaults the senses.

His! hiss! …

“Turn on the song of sea monster!”

The major general’s order was issued to turn on the “Storm Horn”. On the day of the arrival, a new pair of well-arranged locations has been selected. Sea monster weapon.

Even if the “Sea Monster Song” was set up in advance to deal with possible sea monsters, they didn’t expect to use it so quickly, let alone use it against so many sea monsters.

Although the cape is a piece of land protruding into the sea, it is a natural deep-water harbor beside it.

Although for large species, apart from creating a relatively flat battlefield, “Song of Sea Monster” is not directly lethal to them.

But with the “sea monster song”, at least there is no need to worry that the sea monster will dive over, and then land from the shore, wasting the firepower it was within range of several rounds!

Om——

The three “Sea Monster Songs” placed in different positions coordinated to spread the infrasound waves with a huge increase in lethality.

The “skeleton moray”, who was only a few months old, certainly didn’t understand the three-dimensional fortifications of human beings. It was also the first time in his life that he faced artillery.

In fact, in its simple brain, even if there is no “sea monster song”, it simply never thought of attacking from underwater in a roundabout way, because the “bastion” is the only place nearby where a large number of humans gather. The instinct to let go of killing has been reckless!

Even if the bastion defenders rarely have actual combat, the drill is impossible to pull down, although there is still a gap compared with the elite navy serving on the battleship.

But they still loaded the ammunition before the strange fish was close to the optimal range.

“The distance is 500 meters, target the fish-shaped sea monster, fire!”

bang! bang! bang! …

red light and roaring artillery fire.

Behind the “skeleton moray”, there is a huge whale, a colorful mantis shrimp, a seahorse in heavy armor, and a vaguely indistinct huge monster.. .. is ready to go.

…….

The other side.

Along with the deafening sound of water, Huggins and sea monsters ride up the wide channel of the Leiden River on huge waves.

“Leiden River Valley” is a livable area with rich freshwater resources and flat fertile land. The tsunami caused by hundreds of sea monsters is unstoppable, crushing dry weeds and Smashing rotten wood destroyed large fields and towns in the valley.

In just a few minutes, the homeland that mankind has gradually built for hundreds of thousands of years will return to Barbarian Desolate Era.

And every time a human-inhabited town is passed, a small species will leave the team and rush towards the town, causing trouble for the defenders everywhere, further delaying their pace, preventing them from uniting and making it for the pirate ship when it returns. trouble.

However, after entering the inland, the strength of the sea monster was obviously suppressed. In addition, due to the restriction of the river, the speed of the waves has slowed down.

But despite this, they also advanced nearly 200 kilometers within an hour, and the destination of their trip is in front of them-the city of wealth “Golden Lion City”!

And this time, the warning issued by the Garrison Command finally arrived here before the sea monster arrived.

Boom——

The assistant slammed away from the office of the chairman of the Netherlands Banking Group, panting heavily while reporting hurriedly:

” Huh…huh…Mr. Chairman! Emergency military situation!

A large number of sea monsters breakthrough has entered the sea upstream along the Leiden River. There is also a pirate ship, confirmed as Huggins. The ship’s “Eternal Shaky Icon”, the destination…unknown!”

oh la la!

The spirited white haired old man behind the desk stood up voluntarily, and didn’t even notice the important papers on the floor.

Old Joel stared at his wise and capable assistant with eagle-like eyes. The calm and composed face on his face looked like he had been cast on a big rock, and his color instantly changed:

“How can the sea monsters in the deep sea enter the land? And the sea monsters and Huggins get together?!”

Because the land naturally suppresses the sea monsters, at least in the history of human records There is no record of a living sea monster going deep inland.

Wei Wei calmed down her breath, and Nisk’s assistant in his hometown was replied in disbelief and deep sorrow:

“A message came from the garrison headquarters entering the sea. , It is suspected that a sea monster caused a big tsunami, and, moreover, Nisk is over!”

The face of the old man was gloomy and uncertain, and he had already guessed when the assistant spoke.

A large number of sea monsters can pass through the entrance to the sea, so Nisk, as the first level of the entrance to the sea, is of course the first to bear the brunt. There is only a tragic and more tragic end.

What he considers is how the uncontrolled variable entry of sea monsters will affect his Golden Lion city and bank group!

If the things that humans fear most in this era of great seafaring are listed on a Ranking List, then the sea monsters will definitely be among the top on the list.

Especially their irresistible power and extreme hostility to humans are their eternal labels.

If a traveler encounters a sea monster while going out to sea, without a battleship escort or a powerful transcender on board, then it means that he has got a one-way ship to hell ticket!

Even if he believes that Huggins will not be so unwise to destroy the “good” cooperative relationship between the two parties, as most directors do, there is no concept of partner and customer for the sea monster, when the time It’s really hard to say what will happen to comes.

As the chairman of the four-member committee of the Dutch banking group and the governor of Golden Lion City, whether Hudgens and the group of sea monsters are targeting Golden Lion City or not, the old man must do it at this time Make a decision!

“Convey my orders.

First, the highest-level warning is to sound the alarm to let all citizens leave the city and enter the pine forest for refuge! Draw a team of City Guards to accompany you to maintain order!

Secondly, inform the Great Knight Mr. Grace and the two wizards, the “Steam Master” and “Demoness” on duty, so that they will be ready for the challenge. The large bank vault, especially the 3rd floor, is absolutely not allowed. There is a loss.

Thirdly, take my warrant to personally mobilize our private army to board the city wall and buy time for the citizens to evacuate. No, I will go personally, I want to see this pirate Dare Wang dare to step into Golden Lion City!

Fourth, you personally go and pass the news to Jasper bishop of Golden Peak cathedral, ask him to stick to Golden Peak cathedral, just in case, it is necessary The last resort will be opened at the time.

Finally, all the staff of the bank group stick to their posts. We must be worthy of the trust our customers place in us, and we must also be worthy of the unbreakable reputation established by the bank’s ancestors.”

The old man knows that time is pressing and he doesn’t have too much time to delay. Swift and decisive have put on his formal jacket at the same time he issued the order, and he took his cane and walked out of his office first.

da da da …

When the two people walked out of the office, the sixteen directors or their representatives resident in Golden Lion City had also received news and rushed over.

Behind them is a group of fully armed guards with high-end equipment. There are males and females, but each of them is at least an official Knight-level transcender.

Among the equipment of this group of transcenders, there are also at least one or two gleaming transcendent auras, showing unabashedly “local tyrant” temperament from head to toe.

“Mr. Chairman! As a director of the bank group, you should naturally be at the forefront of protecting your clients’ property. Please let us join you on the city wall.”

Obviously, what he said was indeed the motto that the “Netherlands Bank Group” had existed since its establishment.

But most of them didn’t take Huggins’ attack seriously. Now that they had crossed the water city of Nisk, the goal eight achievement was Brandenburg, the capital of Salt Lake County at the back of the river valley.

These shareholders come from many countries, and they have no sense of belonging to the Kingdom of Tyrol. Huggins wants to fight as he pleases, as long as he doesn’t hinder himself from making money.

Standing up at this time, not only is there no danger, it is also a lot of bonus points in the forces behind themselves!

Being able to come forward at the moment of crisis will naturally have the performance of being able to do things, and will be able to entrust heavier responsibilities in the future.

However, even if it is only passing through the “Golden Lion City”, it still scares our customers and employees.

In the next transaction, it seems that the price should be increased. However, Mr. Harkins, the pirate king of the Black Sea, has always been generous in transactions, isn’t he? he he he …

Until now, they are still very optimistic. The long-term good cooperation in the past allowed them to maintain their inertial thinking and they did not believe that Hudgens’ goal would be themselves.

A smile appeared on Mr. Chairman’s face upon hearing their initiative to ask.

Most of these directors are their own Juniors. Since he has the courage and responsibility at this time, he is naturally happy for the successors of the bank group.

“Very good, we will meet this old customer together! No matter what the pirate king wants to do, since he passed the bank consortium, he should send us a note in advance!”

p>

The words showed a slight dissatisfaction with the action of the Pirate King. Although the wise Mr. Chairman issued a series of orders in accordance with the emergency plan, the true idea of ​​deep in one’s heart is obviously no different from that of his Juniors. .

I still look at the world from the perspective of a banker…
