"Really?" Kong chuckled and said, "Find a way to figure it out. Then I'll give you a surprise."
Time passed minute by minute, and the Jianyu Lei clan soon joined the city defense.
Just as it was noon, a guard pulled a basket up to the city wall from outside the city and reported breathlessly: "The monster army is coming!"
Chapter 50 Monster sieges the city
"The monster is coming?"
Xia Jia looked into the distance and saw faint black shadows flickering among the mountains and forests, so dense that they looked like an army.
Bai estimated the distance: "1562 meters."
There are many mountains outside the city, so the army's advance is slow, but within a thousand meters, there is an open plain, and the monsters can rush to the city in just a few minutes.
Sora grabbed a guard and ordered, "Send the people digging traps outside back."
"Yes." The soldier looked solemn and turned away.
Xia Jia's expression was equally solemn. It was also the first time he had seen a war of this scale.
There are too many monsters, and the Sword City itself is not a fortress city. As a commercial city that deals in swords and weapons, the city walls are not high and the defense is weak.
The good news is: there are so many blacksmiths in the city, and the amount of equipment is so huge that you can't just throw away all of it.
The bad news is: the one with the highest combat power is [Mud Dog], the rest are all level 1, and there is not a single upper-level adventurer (level 2).
The distance of more than 1000 meters was quickly closed, and Xia Jia had already seen more than a dozen Minotaur carrying huge logs and crashing into the city wall.
"They actually know how to use siege equipment?"
Such a funny scene appeared in front of everyone, and the soldiers panicked.
How can they defend themselves against the monsters that obey orders? Take their heads?
Kong frowned. He didn't expect that morale would drop so quickly right from the start.
"what happened?"
Xia Jia hurriedly explained: "Most monsters are not intelligent. Let alone cutting down trees and making siege equipment, they are considered smart if they can pick up weapons and kill people. This is equivalent to the collapse of the world view."
"If we were just using trees as weapons, it wouldn't be a big deal, but the point is that we are in a siege battle. The meaning is different."
Kongbai smacked his lips, swallowing the loss, and shouted, "Soldiers, follow the plan! Archers!"
Following Kong's order, the soldiers, although flustered, still dutifully formed up their formations and demonstrated their quality.
Draw the bow and nock the arrow.
Sora held a sword and pointed it at the battlefield ahead: "Fire!"
Whoosh whoosh.
Hundreds of arrows rained down on the Minotaur, splashing blood, but causing no pain.
Unlike ordinary siege warfare, one arrow cannot take away the monster.
As the Minotaur approached, a thumping sound was heard below the city walls. The city walls beneath the feet shook and loose pieces of earth fell around them.
The huge trees were embedded in the city wall, forming a ladder that led upwards. Cerberus, earth spirits, and goblins climbed up the huge trees toward the city wall.
The one who rushed faster had already bit the guard's shoulder.
Kong remained calm and commanded calmly: "Dwarf troops! Line up and throw! Logistics, take care of the wounded!"
Behind the archers.
More than thirty dwarven blacksmiths with favors rolled up their sleeves, revealing their muscular bodies. They grinned and took out a bunch of battle axes from the boxes behind them:
"Hey, brothers, let's show these monsters how powerful our blacksmith is."
Hu Hu Hu.
The dwarves held battle axes and threw them directly at the monsters under the city wall. Those were not ordinary small throwing axes, but giant axes with blades that were 1 meter long.
"I'm so, so rich?!"
Xia Jia was stunned. That was a priceless equipment, and you treated it as a consumable?
Even if you win the fight and can pick it up, you are not really afraid of others stealing it.
Without any further hesitation, Xia Jia picked up the weapon that he could not afford and threw it at the monster.
The feeling of throwing money around is so cool!
Under the city.
The monster army was approaching, and as they were galloping, three or five monsters fell into the pit and were pierced by swords. Most of the monsters rushing in the front died under the rain of arrows and giant axes.
A few magic swords that were sold as merchandise were also brought out, and flames and lightning were released sporadically.
The situation reached a stalemate.
The tug of war lasted for an hour.
The cannon fodder among the monsters gradually died, and the remaining elites increased. These monsters with average potential above level B could no longer be killed by simple bows and crossbows, and a bed crossbow was needed to cause damage.
A saber-toothed tiger rushed out from the rear of the army. It was completely black, with black scales flashing on its body. After three or five flashes, it had already jumped onto the city wall along the giant tree.
"Sakura! Enhanced species!"
"Here it comes!" Sakura held a huge shield and immediately blocked the saber-toothed tiger that was rushing towards her. Then, she used her poisoned sword to cut from the side.
The wound was only three fingers long, but it was black and oozing pus. The saber-toothed tiger roared, and with one claw it blew away the cherry blossoms, roaring as well.
"Switch." Sakura yelled as she was blown away.
Yuki rushed forward with a rapier in hand. With an extremely simple thrust, two sword shadows were created in an instant, hitting the saber-toothed tiger's eyes directly.
Then, Chigusa and the others provided cover from the back, and three arrows hit his head.
Yuuki took advantage of this and retreated, looking clumsy in his first fight, and if it weren't for his development ability [Swordsman], he would have had a hard time forming a fighting force.
Such small-scale battles broke out in all directions of the city wall.
From this moment on, the city wall was caught in a fierce battle with blank calculations.
the other side.
Kanade Tachibana and Yui hid in the back, and they worked with the residents as logistics.
Yui's skill [Energetic] made her feel no longer tired. She jumped up and down, and shouted to the aunt beside her:
"That's amazing! Auntie, hurry up, speed up, speed up."
"Haha, okay." The aunt smiled kindly, and barrels of kerosene were carried to the city wall and then poured down from the city wall by the soldiers.
Lihua Zouan followed quietly and methodically.
After a while, a cry was heard from the sky.
Five half-human birds fell from the sky, and their sharp claws instantly tore the aunt's back apart, blood splattered. The kerosene in the aunt's arms spilled onto the ground, mixing with the oil and blood.
"Auntie?!"
Yui's pupils shrank, and she turned around, grabbed the old lady with a painful expression and cold sweat on her forehead and dragged her to the next room.
"It's a flying monster! The monster has entered the city!"
There were shouts from people all around, the crowd was making a noise, and they were pulling their injured companions into the surrounding rooms.
Boom, boom, boom!
Tachibana Kanade stood there without moving.
She covered her heart with her right hand. Her heart was beating violently, and the blood rushed to her brain, making her extremely clear-headed. For the first time, she clearly felt the powerful beating of her heart, but she was not happy.
"Xiaozou! Come in quickly!" Yui shouted!
The centaur had completed its turn in the air and dropped its sharp claws again.
The sharp claws flashing with black light gradually enlarged in Tachibana Kanade's eyes. She heard cries of grief all around her, and she thought of what Xia Jia said at the beginning.
"This world is real. Even if you treat it as a game, it's no joke."
There was a flash of determination in Tachibana Kanade's eyes and a flash of sadness in his heart: Everyone is suffering, and I don't want everyone to suffer.
In her sight, there were the monster's scarlet eyes, its hideous smile, the howling residents, and those eyes that were worried about her.
【Now, I am truly alive. 】
Xiaozou murmured, "It's not a game."
He added in his heart: "But I'm not afraid."
At the moment when the claws fell, he called out the lines he remembered: "Guard skill activated."
Buzz————+
Tachibana Kanade stretched out his arms, and a pair of high-speed vibrating white light blades shot out from the back of his hands.
"Sonic Hand Blade."
Brush brush.
Xiaozou waved his hands wildly, and the hand blade slid in the air along an unpredictable trajectory.
Phew! Phew!
The swooping centaur flapped its wings hard to try to retreat a second before touching the hand blade, but the horrible vibration shattered her magic stone at a distance of 50 centimeters.
Magic is a rather buggy ability in this world, similar to the Gatling gun in the cold weapon era. Ordinary monsters on the ground will almost certainly die if they touch it.
But Xiaozou’s fighting skills are limited, and killing one person is his limit.
The remaining four centaurs circled in the sky, flapping their feathers and shooting flying blades.
Kanade crossed her arms and protected them above her head, turning her sonic blade into a shield. The feathers fell on the shield and dissolved instantly, having no effect.
Yui hid in the room and yelled, "Kanade! So handsome!"
The magic time is limited, the shield on his arm flickers, and Xiaozou soon can't hold on any longer.
[It's over. I forgot to leave time for escape.] Xiaozou looked up at the sky with his eyes wide open.
The half-human bird let out a ferocious cry and swooped down.
next second.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh,
Four balls shining with scarlet light shot towards them from the direction of the city wall.
A voice roared from the tower: "Don't think you're great just because you can fly, you mixed-haired crow!"
Boom boom boom boom——
There was a huge roar in the air and flames shot up to the sky.
On the city wall, Xia Jia put down the racket in his hand, turned around and fought with the monster again. The heat wave behind him blew his red hair flying.
At this moment, his eyes fell on the rear of the monster army, where there was a pure white goblin with a small dragon skull on its head. It held a strange weapon in its hand and shouted.
Russian qing.
The pale lightning fell on the top of the city, and the view was dim.
Chapter 51: Fallen Leikaino?
Xia Jia discovered the abnormality the moment the flying monster took off.
At that time, the battlefield on the city wall was in a tense period. The enhanced saber-toothed tiger was blind and running around. The five charging Minotaur climbed up the city wall under the cover of the goblins.
As a last resort, Shaga used explosives to instantly blow up the five Minotaur through the space gate.
The saber-toothed tiger also died under the poisoned sword.
By the time these were dealt with, the centaur had already jumped over the city wall and rushed into the inner city.
Helplessly, Xia Jia took off his package and took out the special tennis racket that Cecil had repaired.
When Xia Jia took out the last four special explosives...
"Wait." Kong stopped him and said, "These monsters are very strange. There is no reason for them to fight against the city gate. There must be something attracting them."
