Chapter 1300
At this time, the vibration felt by Gu Zheng became more and more intense. A loud noise rose outside. The huge transparent city wall could not see what happened at all.
Gu Zheng saw that everyone was busy, so he followed a pair of guards who had just arrived and sneaked into the city wall. It happened that this team of people was an old acquaintance from yesterday. Seeing Gu Zheng alone, they even handed him their own spear.
Following them, they soon arrived at the city wall.
"Village chief, who is that newcomer? Why doesn't he know the rules? I'll ask someone to call him down. Don't destroy our formation." One of the elders, Zhang, who had not seen Gu Zheng yesterday, said to the village chief.
"It's okay. He is the one who killed the Qilin beast yesterday. Don't ask him. By the way, is Xi'er here?" The village chief waved his hand and said.
"I'll take a look." After the elder finished speaking, he hurried to the back.
At this time, Gu Zheng also saw clearly what was happening outside and took a breath of cold air.
A dozen or so giant creatures, more than ten feet tall, were rushing towards this side with slow steps, crushing the stones under their feet with every step.
At first glance, it looked like an enlarged version of an elephant, with a long nose, a long crack on the long nose, and full of saw-like teeth, which looked very sharp.
But there was indeed only one eye on the head, one nostril, and a huge mouth that occupied half of it. At this time, one eye was red, blood was leaking, and it was full of endless murderous intent, rushing towards the village fiercely.
Such a huge monster, Gu Zheng looked at the spear in his hand that was like a toothpick in front of the opponent, and felt that he could not hurt the opponent.
"At this time, the giant elephant beast, hurry up and take out the longbow." At this time, the people around shouted one after another. At this time, the attack distance of the spear was not enough, and some people hurried down to get the longbow behind.
Soon a group of old, weak, women and children, each holding a few longbows, came to the city wall to give them, and then hurried down from the city wall.
The longbows seemed to be made of unknown wood, made of some monster bones, and looked quite powerful.
At this time, the giant elephant was less than a hundred feet away from the city wall. Gu Zheng stood on the city wall and felt his feet trembling constantly. He was really afraid that the city wall under his feet would be shaken down by the other party before he arrived.
But seeing that no one around was worried, Gu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief.
"Master Chang is here." A burst of cheers came from behind. Chang Xi was holding a green crystal stone, and there were many men behind him holding a basin of green water.
When they appeared, they sent the basin up, and everyone put the tips of their spears and feather arrows into the water. Gu Zheng was also curious and followed the same action.
The originally white bones were dyed green, and a strange wave came from above, which should have increased the aggressiveness.
Soon, a basin of water was used up. They hurriedly took it down and brought another one up. Chang Xi below kept muttering something. He put the green crystal in his hand into the basin in his heart. Soon, the basins of water turned dark green again.
"Mr. Gu, you are here too." At this time, a familiar voice sounded in Gu Zheng's ears. Gu Zheng looked back and saw that it was Captain Qian from before. This was almost the area where his team members were stationed. Of course, he would come here to command.
Gu Zheng smiled and was about to say something when someone suddenly shouted.
"Be careful"
Gu Zheng turned around and saw that the giant elephant stretched out its long nose and swept the ground. The sharp teeth in the middle clamped irregular stones and suddenly threw them towards the city wall.
"Swoosh"
Suddenly, dozens or hundreds of stones flew from a distance, like sharp arrows, at such a fast speed that they flew to the edge of the city wall in a blink of an eye.
Gu Zheng was startled and was about to crawl down to avoid it when a green light curtain suddenly rose up and blocked the city wall. When the stones hit the light curtain, they were instantly shattered. Instead, a green light was sucked into it, and the light curtain was not damaged at all.
But the giant elephants still swept the stones on the ground and threw them forward continuously, not caring whether it worked or not.
"After every thunder disaster, there are always some creatures that go crazy and actively attack all villages." Captain Qian said to Gu Zheng, who was stunned, "And this defense is the power of darkness. Thanks to them, we can stand here safely."
Captain Qian's tone was full of pride, but Gu Zheng keenly grasped the words in it.
The power of darkness!
Gu Zheng subconsciously looked up at the high platform in the middle of the village. I don't know when, four figures sat on it, looking like they were casting a spell, their figures were hidden in the green mist, and their specific age and gender could not be seen.
The hand gesture inside changed again, and a few "buzzing" sounds came from his ears. Gu Zheng turned his head quickly, but found that nothing happened.
The opponent's giant elephant was still approaching, but the sound was still ringing, and the sound was getting louder and louder. Gu Zheng looked at the people around him who were ready to attack. While he was wondering, a green light beam from the mouth of a bowl below hit the giant elephant in the front with lightning speed.
Although the green beam was not much bigger than a toothpick compared to the giant elephant, when it was shot, the figure suddenly fell forward uncontrollably and rolled on the ground.
"Release"
Roars came from the city wall, and all the captains ordered their members to shoot at the giant elephant in front of them.
"Puff puff"
The skin that seemed extremely hard at first seemed to become cotton. In just one breath, the whole body was pierced with feather arrows, and only a small part of it fell to the side, almost no one was too far away.
Before the giant elephant screamed, the whole body was suddenly corroded by a layer of green light. In a very short time, it melted into a ball of flesh and blood, but the feather arrows on it were not damaged at all.
The giant elephant did not stop at all because of the death of its companion, and continued to rush forward without hesitation.
Soon they passed the dead giant elephant, but the next round of feather arrow attack on the Qian Village side was not ready, but the opponent was close enough, so under the order of their respective captains, everyone drew out their spears and prepared to attack again.
"Is this scale common?" Gu Zheng quietly asked Captain Qian who was standing aside. Although there were only a dozen of them, the momentum they brought was different, like a huge army.
"This time there are indeed a lot of them. In the past, they also attacked in groups of three or five." Captain Qian looked a little solemn, and also raised the spear in his hand.
Rows of green lights were raised in the air, and even Gu Zheng picked up the spear in his hand, concentrating his energy and preparing to do his part.
"Release"
Almost at the same time, the command sounded again, and the spears rained down like raindrops at the giant beasts in front, completely covering their heads.
The giant beasts had seen what happened to their companions before, and they were well prepared and raised their heads instantly, and a layer of blue light appeared on their noses.
A strange roar came from the other party's mouth, and a layer of blue whirlwind mixed with some ice debris rushed out from the cracks of the other party, forming a series of gusts in the air, whistling in the air and rolling forward.
The spears flying towards them were blown by the whirlwind, and they kept tilting to the left and right, losing their accuracy in the air, and were covered with a layer of crystal blue frost. They barely flew forward for a distance, and then fell down one after another, and basically none of them hit the body of the giant beast.
But there was a spear, which was covered with frost and wrapped in a layer of ice several layers thicker than the spear, but the speed was still unabated, and it turned into a graceful arc in the air, just hitting the one-eyed giant elephant.
Instantly, the one-eyed elephant wanted to bloom like a small flower, and the flying sword released some turbid liquid, and half of the spear had been deeply penetrated, causing heavy damage to the opponent.
The figure of the giant elephant tilted to the side, bringing down the running companion, and kept wailing in pain.
"Too powerful, Mr. Gu." Captain Qian said excitedly. Of course, he knew that this spear was thrown by Gu Zheng next to him, but except for him, everyone's attack failed.
However, even their attack was not without success. When they threw it at the opponent again, this time the opponent did not release that kind of spell, but just used the long trunk in his hand to push away the more threatening spear, mainly to protect his own head.
The other spears pierced the giant elephant's huge body, but only caused a little skin injury, at best, they just pierced a small hole, and a green line covered it. The effect was negligible, and the opponent's body speed was not affected at all.
Gu Zheng smiled and said nothing, but took out another spear from the side, squinted a little, and found the right time to throw it out again.
The spear rotated slightly in the air, like a flash of lightning, just avoiding the opponent's long nose, and pierced into the opponent's eyes again, directly injuring the opponent, and once again making the opponent lose his combat effectiveness.
This change made everyone look over, and after finding out that it was a newcomer, not only did they talk about it, but they didn't expect that this newcomer seemed to be quite powerful, completely different from what they knew.
The newcomers below, including Han Xiu who arrived later, saw Gu Zheng's great power, and they were definitely no better than him, and they all asked to fight, wanting to show off and increase their status.
But their actions were even worse, and they even performed worse than the warriors next to them.
At this time, a ball of green light appeared under the city wall again, shooting at the giant elephant in the front. The giant elephant also fell to the ground limply, and was shot into a hedgehog by the spears and feathers that followed, and turned into a pool of green blood again.
However, at this time, the giant elephant was close to half the distance, and everyone could clearly see the huge size of the other party, which was even more shocking. Some people's breathing became heavier.
The death of their companions stimulated the remaining giant beasts. A burst of blue light flashed on their originally smooth fur. The originally soft hair instantly stood up and emitted a blue glow.
Gu Zheng saw this scene and had some bad thoughts in his mind, but before he could say anything, a layer of green shield appeared in front of everyone again.
"Swish, swish, swish"
The giant elephant flashed again, and the hair on its body instantly broke away from the surface of the body, turning into blue rays of light, rushing towards this side, almost blocking half of the sky.
"Bang, bang, bang"
The dense sound rang out on the green screen in front, and the entire green screen was hit by countless hairs as hard as steel. Countless waves were constantly stirred up, making the entire green screen tremble continuously.
In everyone's terrified eyes, this wave of attacks was finally blocked, but through the green screen that had just returned to calm, the opponent's second attack came again.
Just now it was just the attacks from the front ones, but now the ones behind them also stepped into their attack range, and the same familiar scene struck from the sky again.
"Get down quickly." When Gu Zheng saw it, he immediately shouted loudly. When Captain Qian next to him heard this, he immediately got up from the shock and subconsciously followed suit.
"Get down quickly, quickly!"
Although he felt that the opponent's attack this time would be the same as last time, unable to break through the green screen's defense, but for some reason, when he heard various shouts, he followed the feeling in his heart and shouted, as if he had no opinion of his own. Same.
It wasn't until he finished shouting that he realized what he was like. Then he thought about it, maybe it was his attitude when facing the Qilin Beast alone that made him unconsciously believe him.
It seemed that Captain Qian's prestige was still quite high. As soon as he finished speaking, shouts from the respective captains could be heard from almost other places.
Many people squatted down subconsciously and hid their figures under the walls without exposing any body. For a while, only a few disapproving people were still standing, with disdainful smiles on their faces. He was the first to speak out about the ancient dispute.
As a newcomer who killed the Qilin Beast alone yesterday, his reputation has spread throughout the village. When he killed a giant elephant for the first time, everyone was aware of it.
"He's just a coward." Those standing thought with disdain that the attack of this kind of monster would happen almost every year after the thunder tribulation, and none of them could break through this green light curtain.
Therefore, they are still standing there confidently, waiting for the opponent's attack to pass, and then attack at the first moment. In this way, their performance will definitely enter the eyes of some people and let them know their bravery.
One of them looked back and saw that there was no one behind him. They were all hiding in the house because they had nothing to do next.
But they forgot that compared with the previous scale, it was just a small fuss. As a slight cracking sound appeared in everyone's ears, the green shield in front of them broke instantly, and those few people suddenly appeared in front of their eyes. It was pitch black, and before my mind realized what was going on, I instantly lost consciousness.
Gu Zheng looked at those people who had small holes all over their bodies. Because the city wall was relatively high, the burrs penetrated them and continued to fly into the sky, finally landing on the roof and ground behind them. Fortunately, there was no one outside. Apart from them, there were no casualties.
Everyone felt lucky when they saw this scene in their minds, even Chang Xi was no exception. At this time, he was on the other side of the city wall. He had also felt something was wrong before, but he was just not sure.
The shattering of the green screen caused everyone behind to cast spells to vomit blood. It seemed that they had lost their effectiveness in this battle.
Everyone stood up one after another, but no one mourned for those who died, because there was still a battle waiting for them next.
They saw that the blood beast was less than thirty feet away from them, but the good news was that the opponent's hair was gone, and as the distance increased, the lethality of the spears in everyone's hands became even greater.
After a concentrated fire, the giant elephants in front were filled with spears and lay on the ground. Although they did not lose their lives for the time being, they could only slowly bleed to death on the ground without any threat.
And Chang Xi didn't dare to lag behind. He held up the green crystal in his hand. As the crystal slowly brightened, a thin thread the size of a thumb shot out from above, directly penetrating the eye of a giant elephant, killing the opponent on the spot. Kill it.
After seeing this scene, everyone cheered and their morale became even higher. They kept throwing out the spears and feather arrows in their hands. Although the opponent sent out a gust of wind to block everyone's attack, several people were even slightly injured. It's freezing cold, but the movements in everyone's hands still don't stop.
After waiting for a while, Chang Xi emitted a green light again, knocking down the opponent again without any suspense, and was quickly killed by everyone again.
Gu Zheng glanced at Chang Xi's side and found that the crystal looked much darker, and Chang Xi's face was also a little white. It seemed that he had spent a lot of money.
Soon all the giant beasts in front had been killed or lost their fighting power and fell to the ground. Only the giant elephant at the back was still walking slowly towards here.
Gu Zheng discovered something was wrong with it from the beginning, because the eyes of other giant elephants were all blood-red, and only the blue eyes in its eyes looked particularly different. But if you look closely, you can see that there are also many red bloodshot threads spreading deep in the eyes. It seems that he is constantly struggling, but he seems to be just a little short of waking up.
And as the giant elephant in front of him gradually died, half of the blue eyes were suppressed, turned into blood, and finally fell into madness.
The size of this giant elephant is obviously much larger than the others. It seems to be the leader of this small group of giant elephants. Before, it was just walking slowly and didn't feel anything.
Running like this, it feels like experiencing an abnormal earthquake. Every step can almost shake the people on the city wall. Fortunately, all the stones on the city wall seem to be composed of green crystals, so there is no need to worry about collapse. However, several houses in the village couldn't help shaking, and several collapsed at once.
Fortunately, no one lived inside, so there were no casualties.
Without the green pillar, even with the green immersion, the feather arrows shot at the opponent, only knocking off a few hairs, and even Chang Xi once again stimulated the green light, but unfortunately the rays that were always effective did not work this time.
Because the opponent's eyes also shot out a blue ray, which collided with it in mid-air and died together.
The opponent's charge was getting stronger and stronger. If there was no way to stop it, it might really break through the city wall and come to the village to massacre.
At this moment, a pleasant chirping sound suddenly came from the village, just like the call of a lark, crisp and moving.
