Chapter 90 Scared Me to Death
As Gawain had expected before, just relying on a cliff collapse and landmines could not completely eliminate those monsters.
Of course, if he has more depth, a larger minefield, and a more powerful burst crystal, it is not impossible to do all this. After all, those monsters have no brains. As long as there are enough mines, they will always be honest. Step on them all over and go to the sky collectively - but if the conditions are not met, everything is in vain.
There were still some monsters who got away with it—or rather bluntly charged past all the explosives, and charged up with a roar.
At this point, any hesitation and fear will disappear, and the soldiers have long stretched their nerves to the limit. When the order was issued, the sword, light and sword suddenly appeared, and the inevitable hand-to-hand battle began.
The screams of the people and the roars of the monsters echoed.
This is their second encounter.
The last time was in Cecil's Territory, which has now been burnt by dragon flames. The soldiers wore crude and crude steel equipment and used those weapons without magic power to face the aberrations that were almost invulnerable and resilient, and this time. , They are wearing extraordinary weapons left over from ancient civilizations, shielded, and enchanted with long swords and spears, while the enemy in front of them has been bombed and tattered.
Although this is a simple camp, the real situation is much better than the last time.
As soon as they played against each other, the experienced veterans had already realized this. The equipment on their bodies showed unimaginable good performance in the face of the pressure caused by the aberrations. Humans were no longer pressed and beaten in front of monsters, but It was completely able to fight head-on, so the front line stabilized immediately after shaking for a while, and even began to push back the monsters that rushed out of the minefield.
Knight Byron even had to shout from behind: "Don't go too far! Don't go over the fence - watch out for yourself falling on a trap!"
Gawain casually chopped down a scorched black aberration that had been bombed, and noticed that the battle was no longer in suspense. Even without his own help, the two knights led the soldiers in the camp would be enough to deal with all the enemies.
So he breathed a sigh of relief and was about to look back at Rebecca's situation, but at this moment, he suddenly noticed that more than a dozen aberrations on the east side of the battlefield stopped in the process of rushing towards the defense line. The faceless flesh-and-blood giant seemed to "smell" something, suddenly raised his head in unison, and "looked" in a certain direction.
Then they ran over there - completely ignoring the guards who were close at hand, full of magical reactions!
Gawain was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized that there was something in that direction: that was the tent where the "Dragon Egg Stone Ball" was stored!
Did they sense the breath of that "dragon egg"? That "dragon egg" is even more attractive to them than living people and magical reactions? !
These guesses suddenly popped up in Gawain's mind,
And this unexpected situation also caused him to break into a cold sweat, and he immediately shouted at Rebecca: "Follow your guards!"
Without waiting for Rebecca to respond, he ran towards the tent where the stone balls were stored.
Of course, there were guards around the camp, but due to the shortage of manpower and the fact that the aberrations were easily attracted by the gathered human and magical auras, most of the combat power was concentrated on the defense line in the southwest of the camp. The soldiers around the "Dragon Egg Tent" were only a small group of militiamen, and they were recruits who had just completed their training. With their combat effectiveness, they could never stop those monsters.
Soon, those aberrations crossed the not very long distance. The soldiers around the Dragon Egg tent had already seen this scene from a distance. Constitution.
A militiaman put his spear down with trembling hands and feet, trying to recall a few simple movements he had managed to remember two days ago to meet the enemy, but at this moment, a sound as if the fabric was being torn came from behind him. .
The militiaman didn't dare to look away from those aberrations, but he couldn't help but want to look back. In the end, he couldn't hold back his curiosity about the sound behind him, so he turned his head quickly—— When he turned back, his eyes widened.
He saw more than ten meters away, the curtain that was originally tied to the tent was torn open, and the huge stone ball about 1.5 meters in diameter was squeezing out from between the two curtains. The next second, he noticed. This stone ball is actually floating in the air!
Thinking of the strange characteristics of this stone ball, the militiamen immediately subconsciously clenched the weapon in their hands, but this time the stone ball did not have any intention to attract the surrounding metal. There was a scream with a metallic vibrato: "What the hell?!"
It seemed to "see" the aberrations that were rushing towards it.
The militiamen in charge of guarding the tents have noticed the movement of the stone balls at this moment. The monsters rushing in the distance and the stone balls screaming strangely behind them make these newly armed recruits who have just completed basic training in chaos, even their little ones. The captain didn't know how to deal with the situation in front of him, but at this moment, they saw a tall figure wrapped in pale white shimmering fast approaching from another direction.
That was Gawain who started the Knight Charge, and behind Gawain, Rebecca and a small group of family warriors followed.
Gawain saw the stone ball floating at the entrance of the tent from a distance. This strange scene almost made him stumble and fall on the way of charging, and immediately after him, he heard the stone ball making a harsh sound: " Help! Monster! What's this all about!!"
It turns out that this thing can make sound? !
At this time, Gawain didn't even bother to analyze what the hell's "Dragon Egg" was. He decided to give up thinking in such a weird situation, and then he suddenly exerted force on his feet, and after a high jump, he activated the knight's signature skill. One, Champion Slash.
His whole person was wrapped in a dazzling white light in the air, and the long sword suddenly burned with a thousand-degree energy flame, and then it fell from the sky like a meteor, slashing fiercely on the head of a monster.
The flesh-and-blood giant was directly hit by the champion's slash, and instantly split into two halves. Before the two halves could be completely separated, they were already burned into two scattered ashes by the high temperature, and the remaining shock wave generated by the slash continued. Go forward, leaving a deep ravine.
The surrounding aberrations were temporarily disturbed by Gawain's sudden burst of powerful energy. They hesitated for a while, but taking advantage of this opportunity, Gawain hurriedly shouted at the stone ball in the distance: " Hurry up and hide! There are monsters outside!"
"Mom!" Shi Qiu screamed, "It's just a tent that blows down, it's useful to hide!"
Gawain suddenly dodged to the side, dodged the sharp claws swept by a deformed body, and stabbed with a backhand sword. At the same time, a fireball the size of a washbasin flew past him less than half a meter away. , and the other side of the deformed body that was trying to sneak attack was blown back half of the body.
Gawain took advantage of the situation to solve the out-of-balance monster. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw that Rebecca had arrived at the edge of the battlefield under the escort of soldiers. She raised her left hand high, and another huge fireball formed in her hand. The fireball was thrown upwards, grabbed the staff with both hands and swung it hard for half a circle, and slammed the fireball out: "Master Ancestor! I'll help you contain them!"
Girl, there is obviously something wrong with your fireball practice!
But at this time, Gawain didn't have the time to ask Rebecca how she practiced her fireball technique, because he noticed that the several aberrations running in the front were already very close to the tent and the stone ball, and a militiaman rallied. He took the courage to stab the spear and tried to stop the enemy, but he was hit by the chaotic energy arrow released by the other aberration in the distance, and the whole person was blown away. As for dying.
The stone ball floating in the air, less than half a meter above the ground, screamed in fright. It scurried around quickly, trying to avoid the aberrations rushing from all directions, but in front of ten times the number of enemies, it scurried. The dodging space was getting less and less, and finally there was really nowhere to hide. The stone ball had to let out a scream mixed with metallic vibrato, and then the floating height suddenly increased by more than ten meters——
Gawain thought that this guy was going to fly away directly, but he didn't expect it to lose its stamina just halfway through and fall down like a meteorite.
There was a loud "bang", and a monster under the stone ball was hit in the head like this. This unlucky aberration body didn't even have time to make any sound, and it was already smashed into the ground, and even the entire pit was sunken at least. one meter.
Just like when he sucked three soldiers before, even Gawain couldn't push the stone ball at all—this was its true weight.
Not to mention that Gawain was stunned, even Shi Qiu was stunned.
But the surrounding monsters are not stunned. They can only sense that their prey is right in front of them, so the moment the stone ball hits the ground, they pounce on it again.
So the stone ball screamed again, tried again to launch itself into the sky, failed again, and smashed an enemy into the ground again...
Gawain shook the pioneer's sword in his hand, and suddenly felt that he didn't seem to need to come to the rescue in such a frenzy.
I'm afraid it's really the end of the world, and this lunatic may not be in trouble...
The soldiers who came and the militiamen who stayed around the tent could only watch this slightly comical scene with weird expressions. The stone ball, which was suspected to be a dragon egg, screamed in horror and smashed the incoming monsters to death one by one. On the ground, the brainless aberrations threw themselves into this hot land one by one like the gourd dolls lining up to save grandpa—until the last three monsters remained, Gawain suddenly noticed the "takeoff" of the stone ball. The height changed to less than two meters, and he immediately drew his sword and stepped forward to eliminate the last enemy.
The stone ball that killed more than a dozen deformed bodies slowly floated out of the monster pile. It floated only a dozen centimeters above the ground. It was obviously exhausted. After confirming that there were no enemies around, it finally loosened. Tone: "Mom, scared me to death..."
Gao Wen: "..."
