"Be careful, the next section of the road will drop faster. If you are afraid, you can close your eyes."
After Lightning finished his instructions, he carried a Graycastle soldier and flew out of the edge of the mountain. The moment their feet were suspended in the air, the two of them suddenly fell straight down, falling dozens of meters before slowly stabilizing.
When he stepped on the ground again, the soldier's face was already pale, "Thank you... thank you, Miss Lightning, I... vomit——"
"Take a few more breaths and rest to recover."
Then she flew to the mountaintop position again, continuing to look for new lone people.
As Cat's Claw expected, after the stone pillar was inserted into the position, some soldiers were divided into another half, and then were scattered by the spider demon's attack. Although some people successfully passed through the blockade and joined the guarding troops at the assembly point, there were still some people who were trapped in place and unable to move - they were either unwilling to abandon their injured teammates, or they were targeted by several spider demons and fell into a bitter battle, so that It is impossible to evacuate the position immediately after hearing the trumpet sound.
Now that the large forces have begun to retreat in batches, the appearance of lightning has undoubtedly given them a glimmer of hope.
Even if her promotion to adulthood has not brought much improvement to her weight-bearing capacity, the height of ten meters above the ground is enough to lead people out of danger.
The only drawback is that she can only transfer one person at a time, and there will be a large drop when flying over the cliff. This is not a big deal for Lightning, who is used to high-speed dives, but for the soldiers she is carrying, it is a practical experience. Really fallen.
The gunfire on the position gradually subsided, and it was obvious that there were not many demons or blocking troops left. Lightning also found a dozen people one after another and placed them on the path on the back slope.
"Phew, this is the last one." She let out a sigh of relief after putting down the newly found stragglers, "You should be able to find your way down the mountain by yourself, right?"
"Thank you for your help!" Everyone saluted and said, "I wonder where the main force is now?"
"They are blocking the spider demons coming from the north on the other side of the mountain," Lightning explained the situation roughly. "There is no way around here. You can just go down the mountain and try to catch up before the floating land crosses the Impasse Mountains. Arrive at Jinshiling.”
"So that's it...we understand." Everyone looked a little heavy. The reason why they were able to survive the rescue was based on the heroic sacrifice of their companions. Today, the large forces are still fighting the enemy, but they are unable to contribute their own strength. This mixed emotion of sadness and unwillingness appears on everyone's face.
No matter how regretful they are, they all understand that the only thing they can do now is not to hold back the main force.
"By the way, Miss Lightning." When they were about to leave, the soldier who had vomited said hesitantly, "When the stone pillar fell, it collapsed the hidden fortifications of the No. 3 gun position. I saw several Soldiers hid in that area, and I don’t know if there are any survivors inside..."
"Fortification No. 3?" Lightning nodded, "I'll go take a look."
Watching everyone turn around and evacuate down the mountain, she jumped into the air and flew over the position in the blink of an eye.
At the same time, Maisie also sent her a new warning by listening to the sigil.
"Be careful, Gu, the devil is about to launch the third stone pillar!"
"Can you determine the landing point?"
"I don't know, but it shouldn't be Shantou Gu!" Maisie's voice suddenly trembled, "The stone pillar is here Gu!"
Lightning suddenly rose into the air, and a black pillar was seen flying in a high arc, heading straight towards the mountains of Despair.
Since the devil is not targeting the blocking position, it is most likely the retreating troops at the foot of the mountain - the terrain there is difficult to spread out, and if the spider devil rushes into the crowd, the casualties will inevitably increase significantly. The only good news is that there are undulating mountains on both sides of the mountainside road as cover, so it is almost impossible to accurately land on the top of the team's head.
She made an immediate judgment and decided to support the blocking force halfway up the mountain first.
At this moment, Sylvie on the Seagull suddenly opened her eyes, "Oh my god..."
"What happened?" Andrea asked in surprise. In order to avoid being discovered by the devil, Sylvie had kept her eyes closed before. In theory, she could not see the changes happening below the clouds.
"It's a strong magic reaction!" She murmured in disbelief, "It is quickly approaching the Impasse Mountains!"
Magic reaction? Andrea was slightly startled.
This reminded her of the cursed demon Ersluk - in the last battle of Taquila, the opponent used the substitute to release magic power to deliberately lure the ambush team into being fooled.
However, the disguised magic source is not exactly the same as the actual source. Sylvie may not be able to identify the details from a distance of more than ten kilometers, but within this distance, she should be able to distinguish the authenticity of the source.
In other words, what the magic eye captures is most likely a genuine high-level devil.
Although it is unclear why the enemy chose to reveal his identity at this time, since it has already dispatched, the Seagull will not stay where it is and sit idly by.
From the beginning, their targets have been the toughest guys on the battlefield.
Andrea had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
"It's our turn to show off next!"
But Sylvie stared at the bottom of the cabin, sweat breaking out on her forehead, "Is this really a devil...how can its magic power be so huge..."
"Uh...how strong is it?"
"Far more than Ersluk -" Sylvie bit her lip, "I'm afraid it can only be compared with the leaves when they are in the heart of the forest state..."
"What did you say?" Andrea was stunned.
She had seen how powerful the leaves that occupied a corner of the Hidden Forest possessed. It would not be an exaggeration to say it was vast, but after all, it was an effect achieved by assimilating foreign objects. Only one person can reach this level? "Hey...can you be more exaggerated?"
Wendy directly activated all the listening sigils, "Your Highness Tilly, Lightning, Maisie, this is the Seagull! Sylvie detected that a new enemy was approaching towards the mountains. Judging from the magic reaction, the opponent was very It may be a high-level promotion person at the level of the Maharaja! Do not confront him head-on!"
"Then what should we do?" Savi asked timidly.
"Does that need to be said?" Andrea clenched her fists, "Only a guy like this is worthy of the bullet in my hand that is fused with the blood of my sisters."
…
"boom--------!"
The third stone pillar passed through the gap between the two peaks, swept through the large forest with a devastating force, and finally slid down the hillside to a valley bottom. Behind it, the lifted soil and tree roots mixed into a dark brown "wide road", which formed a sharp contrast with the surrounding snow scenery.
Cat Claw also relaxed slightly at this moment.
Ordering a quick evacuation was obviously the right decision - the interval between shots of this round of stone pillars was obviously much longer, and the enemies that came from the mountainside were wiped out. The time difference they had now was enough to deal with the new enemies. .
What's more, the location of the pillar is right between them and the reserve team. The height difference between the two can not only provide a good shooting range for the shooters, but also a distance of more than a thousand meters can arrange the firepower more calmly. Finally, there is no need to be as hasty as before. Meet the enemy.
It's a pity that this operation was not equipped with a 75mm field gun. Otherwise, it would have been a good blow to fire directly at the giant stone pillars at the foot of the hillside and eliminate those damn stone crawlers at the outcrop stage.
