Chapter 102 The Dark Guard (2)
"Here, come!"
In the true vision magic array, dense red dots were like waves of the sea, stacked up and flocking in.
With a sharp whistle, the guards bent their bows and arrows, aiming at the already set target: a narrow area marked with light stone lamps.
The whistle sounded shortly.
"Buzz!"
The sound of bee takeoff sounded, and countless light green trajectories drew a neat parabola in the darkness.
These arrows are all wind-attribute arrows that have just been made. The production capacity of the magic reactor is quite strong, and it is no problem to make attribute arrows. Slime is a water-attribute creature and has poor resistance to wind-attribute. With only one volley, with the crackling sound of firecrackers bursting, the red dots in the real vision magic circle were less than half.
"The second wave is here again, more than just now!"
The operator of the True Vision Magic Formation shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Stay calm and let them come." Stilwell ordered calmly.
The huge group of slimes slowly appeared from the end of the darkness, and it looked like a translucent wall was moving over.
"The enemy's vanguard crossed the cordon!"
Now the translucent wall is not accurate. It is a solidified translucent sea. The coastline has crossed the cordon marked by the light stone lamp and is still slowly moving forward. Thirty meters ahead is the first line of defense of the joint army of Light and Darkness. Now there is no need to aim at the arrows.
"Master preparation."
Three mages in black robes stood in front with awesomeness. Because the environment of the sewer is not conducive to mage combat, Richard McNong did not bring many mages. Several more died in Slime's raid on the camp and the explosion accident just now. These three mages are the only ones with the highest level, level 2 and a half; the most proficient skill, lightning strike: sending four lightning attacks to a single target ahead.
Level 2 and a half, lift the staff and start singing. The completion of this skill takes about three seconds, but because the three people jointly cast the spell, the actual release process is more than twice as slower than originally.
Six seconds passed in the blink of an eye, and the thick lightning that fell from the sky hit the same slime four times in a row, and the poor slime was instantly vaporized.
The water-attributed slime is a good conductor of electricity. Now they are adopting a closely connected formation. Countless flashing electric sparks are like countless fish swimming happily in the sea, causing bunches of crackling sounds. Almost in an instant, the translucent slime sea disappeared.
The operator shouted happily: "The enemy's attack stopped!"
Everyone was suddenly filled with joy.
Stilwell glanced at Dark, who was fully focused on his guard and said, "It's definitely not going to be over yet, right?"
In this defensive battle, Stilwell and Dark established a total of three defense lines, divided into the left and right wings with the base as the center, Reus on the left and Dark on the right, Riley and Isabella guarded the home. The two wings each had three defense lines, each with about 150 meters apart.
Dark didn't say anything, and the huge muzzle pointed steadily forward. He asked during the team chat: "Riley, reconnaissance."
In less than a minute, a small metal ball floated behind the array, with an eye in the middle. Its flight trajectory looked like it was drunk, and it was obvious that it was an alchemy product of artificial operation. It swayed and flew towards the depths of the darkness.
Since he learned that the magic energy reactor can quickly create alchemy props, Riley has been excited. All kinds of strange props are wave after wave. This simple reconnaissance prop is naturally no problem.
"There is a high-energy reaction three hundred meters ahead, and it should be a huge creature. After the detection eye approaches, the reaction is significantly weakened, and the fluctuation characteristics are consistent with insects."
"I got it. Reus, how is your situation there?"
"The situation is fine. It's just that some big cockroaches with thick shells are difficult to deal with."
"Big cockroach?"
"To be precise, it's a slime with cockroach shells! These guys are very terrified, wearing a layer of hardened carapace on their bodies. The bow and arrow effect is average. For every fifty of these cockroaches, one is extremely large. If you kill it, the other cockroaches will fall into their nests."
"Don't let the warriors fight in close combat. Be careful of the plague spreading from cockroach corpses. In the sewer, the poison in the slime's body is much more powerful than that of ordinary cockroaches."
"I got it, I will transfer the priest to you right away. Wherever you are?"
"No problem, I want to ask you something, what is the best way to deal with archers on the battlefield?"
"Stick the face! Shorten the distance, close combat assault!"
“Is there any more?”
"Cannon! Slime is coming up again, let's talk about it later."
"Okay. Isabella, what's going on with you?"
"Camp is safe! It has been made into an iron hedgehog!"
"Build a few ground-sighting surveillance towers, and my slimes will drill into the ground."
"Make it right now. Dak, don't you realize something is wrong?"
"Of course. These guys are not ordinary smart. The first wave of testing, the second wave of strong attack, and the third wave of planning to come directly, just like someone commanding it."
"Slimes have been different since the second wave! Very targeted! Also, don't you think they are coming too fast?"
“Are their nests nearby?”
"It's possible! Do you still remember? You can't win if you defend yourself!" It seems that the girl is still obsessed with her shield being smashed by a bug.
"It makes sense, but it's not wise to divide the troops now? Wait a little longer and check it out. Stay connected and let Riley play the emerging Slime situation in real time."
"Received. Good luck!"
"Good luck!" The closing team chatted, Dark turned to Stilwell and said, "Prepare, retreat, the second line of defense. The enemy is about to assault."
"The morale is in high spirits now, if you retreat..."
"There are monster nests nearby, defend and fight back, destroy."
Stilwell no longer hesitated and raised his arms and shouted: "Brothers, retreat!"
As soon as the soldiers retreated to the second line of defense, Riley's team communication came, and her voice was very anxious: "Danger, dangerous! The enemy has giant siege insects, retreat quickly!"
"Don't panic, we've retreated to the second line of defense."
"Huh? When did you withdraw?"
"Just withdrawal. The image is coming."
In the image, six huge worms, three or four meters long, were surrounded by tide-like slimes and slowly moved forward. These giant worms were like queens with big belly, with their butts forward, and their tiny bodies and heads were almost invisible.
The "Queen Ant" slowly pressed on the light stone lamp, covered with cordons of broken arrows, and raised their butts one after another.
With a muffled sound, the "Queen Ant"'s body sat back, and his belly instantly shrank by two-thirds. At the same time, a large powder ball with green fluorescence was slowly but accurately drawn a parabola, falling behind the stone wall built by the first line of defense. Then five fluorophores landed on the ground, and the entire section of the stone wall was corroded to black!
Stilwell's palms were sweating profusely. If he hadn't heard this dark believer just now, he would have been completely over there.
Although the powder can be blown away by using the "strong wind technique", how do you know that your opponent will use this trick? Once you understand, the powder will spread. Once the poisonous powder is inhaled into the respiratory tract, it will be wiped out.
But what if the enemy advances step by step? The role of these monster insects looks like siege crossbows, and they use assault methods? Most people who attack past must go without going back!
His eyes fell on the dark believer's giant gun again.
The giant gun ignored him and seemed to have raised the gun inadvertently. With a bang, a blue-purple projectile was lifted high and landed towards the position of the cordon.
Chapter completed!
