Chapter 1156 Battle of Taqira (Part 2)

After passing over the position, the lightning climbed high into the sky again, and then... stopped.

"What's wrong?" Maisie raised her head and asked.

She did not answer, but turned around and looked down in the direction of Taqila - in the dark night sky, two hundred meters was almost the limit of her visual distance. Trying to find the demon slayer under these conditions was tantamount to Looking for a needle in a haystack.

But it doesn't matter that she can't see.

Lightning knew the other party could see her.

From the direction of Taquila, her back should be facing the moon at this moment. As long as the demon slayer raised his head, it would be impossible to ignore the dark shadow in the white moon.

But it didn't catch up.

The only reason could be that the other party had realized that her speed was far beyond its reach.

It gives up trying in vain.

She won this round!

Lightning took a deep breath and stretched out her right hand into the night. Although her fingertips were still trembling slightly, she still mustered up the courage to raise her middle finger.

That is the gesture that His Majesty taught her, symbolizing victory!

Then she turned around and flew towards her camp without looking back, while telling Sylvie everything she saw.

"A regular cylinder of God's Stone of Retaliation...I know." The latter recorded the approximate size and handed it over to Agatha. Estimating the shape of the shadow and the location of the stone pillar based on the volume of the sacred stone is a basic skill for high-level members of the Exploration Society. Soon, the corrected data was sent back to the observation room.

Although there is a visual error, it is better than firing randomly. After Sylvie used her magic eyes to determine the location, she picked up the phone number of the artillery battalion.

After a while, the first roar broke out from the fortress artillery position!

Although the flames that burst out of the body were as fleeting as fireflies, they were still extremely eye-catching to the plains shrouded in darkness.

Especially when more artillery joined the attack, the light from the muzzles even faintly reflected the outline of the position. Sometimes the flame tail brought out by the warhead will draw a short trajectory, as if it is a meteor jumping from the ground.

On the other side, the echoes of explosions continued, and the sleeping fertile plain was finally awakened.

"It's so beautiful..." Maisie looked at the artillery position that was disappearing and appearing intermittently, and murmured in a trance.

Lightning stood facing the wind and clenched his fists.

——Now, only the last hurdle remains.

…

Osruk floated in mid-air, watching indifferently as clouds of mud pillars rose up in front of and behind his troops - this is the most threatening attack method used by mankind so far. As long as the projectile falls among the army, it can be destroyed in an instant. Taking away the lives of more than ten original organisms. And its power does not need to be demonstrated through contact. Even if it is tens of meters away, the iron pieces shot out by the projectile are enough to penetrate armor and tear flesh.

Even it was not sure of blocking a direct attack.

In the report submitted to the Lord of the Sky, it named this weapon "Rain of Fire".

In addition, there are "Fire Crossbows" that can fire crossbows continuously, and "Fire Branches" that can be carried by one person... All the current evolution of human beings undoubtedly comes from the element of fire. Compared with the "inheritance promotion" that the monarch thinks, it is more likely to be an accident - in terms of diversification of abilities, witches are better. If a suitable awakened person appears in the past few hundred years, coupled with the long-term development of mankind It is not impossible to achieve large-scale improvements in the study of fire.

But even if human beings embark on a path that completely deviates from them, it does not mean that it is helpless. For example, rolling stones made using the Divine Punishment Original Veins have shown to be hard enough to withstand fire rain. Ersluk clearly saw that despite several direct hits and violent explosions, the sacred stone remained intact. When the opponent's throw hit the edge of the stone pillar, it would even bounce directly away without leaving even a crater.

The real danger is the rain of fire that happens to cross the stone pillars and smash into the "tombstones". Their invulnerable armor is completely vulnerable to fire and rain. If they are hit even once, they will basically fall apart.

Ironically, Wang had high hopes for this extremely strong symbiote that could neither feel pain nor fear. He believed that it was the most valuable breakthrough obtained from the "Inheritance Fragments", which not only greatly enhanced the frontline's The supply capability also enriches the ethnic group's combat methods. It only takes a hundred tombstones to completely wipe out humans, the lowly insects in the eyes of most tribesmen.

So the king gave it no more, no less, exactly one hundred tombstones.

As a result, after more than half a year of fighting, not only had humanity not been wiped out, but Taqila was already on the verge of collapse. Only less than 40% of the tombstones that Ersruk can still control are left.

If the Lord of the Sky didn't trust the king too much on this point at that time, how could it be so stretched now?

If these symbionts are consumed on the road, it can only let the original body resist.

That's not much different from dying - the impact of the fire rain hitting the God's Punishment Stone Pillar is beyond the ability of the original body to resist. Even the black stone claws of the tombstone may be broken, let alone the physical body?

But Ersruk didn't care.

Because these sacrifices are worth it.

And humans...will pay the price for their sacrifices.

…

At ten o'clock in the evening, underground headquarters.

The battle has lasted for nearly three hours now. Every five minutes, Iron Ax will hear the dull sound of shelling from above his head, and at the same time, there will be sparse dust falling.

Apart from this, there was no movement on the position, as if the Devil did not launch a general attack, and the First Army was firing into the air from beginning to end.

This is very different from previous war experiences.

In order to save ammunition and protect the barrel, he had asked the artillery battalion to extend the firing interval and direct most of the firepower behind the shadow. The problem is that even if such a blow causes actual damage to the devil, the results cannot be observed through the magic eye.

The only thing that can be confirmed at present is that the 152mm fortress cannon cannot destroy the God's Punishment Stone Pillar. Although intensive bombardment can reduce the movement speed of the black shadow to a minimum, it will always recover. It is not known how the spider demon can let such a big guy roll across the crater.

"Damn it," Iron Ax punched the table angrily, "If it had been daytime, these monsters wouldn't be alive now!"

The biggest trouble that the First Army currently encounters is that no one knows where the artillery shells landed - if the artillery wants to hit the target, it has to correct the impact point through multiple test firings, but facing two guns with a width of one hundred With a nearly infinite blind spot of more than fifty meters, every shot is equivalent to a test shot without feedback.

According to Sylvie's observation, the Demon Slayer did not break into the camp, but kept hovering above the black shadow, apparently on guard against lightning. Although the speed of the latter is higher than that of the enemy, flying at high speed consumes a lot of magic power. It is okay to do it twice unexpectedly. It is very dangerous to always hover above the black shadow, get rid of the demon slayer and provide the landing point at the same time. A bit too high.

Not getting feedback means that no additional strikes can be made.

As a result, it becomes difficult to quickly eliminate the enemy's effective force through intensive firepower.

The situation at this moment is like a bet. He can pour all the artillery shells into the black shadow and stop it completely. But as long as the enemy retreats the Spider Demon, the First Army will be wasting ammunition.

In addition, there are many crazy demons on the two wings outside the black shadow who are ready to move, as if they want to form a double team. If you aim the artillery at them, you can know the result of the battle immediately, but these devils are very sparsely distributed, and it is a pity to deal with them specifically.

"That's why the enemy chooses to launch an attack at night." Edith said calmly, "This is already a gratifying result... Without Sylvie, let alone the black shadow blind spot, we would not even know where the enemy is. I don’t even know. Besides, the devil is always on the receiving end of the beating, so he’s not in a hurry, so why should you care.”

"I just don't want to waste the ammunition I finally saved up." Tie Ax frowned.

"Don't worry, they can't push that thing all the way down. I think the other party also knows this. They will probably launch a general attack when they get within the range of the mortar." Beidi Pearl raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "It's a pity that the devil doesn't I don’t know, the night is only temporary, and when they enter the range of the flares, the winner will be decided.”
