Chapter 24 The Castle Under Fire

The Elf Queen nodded. "let's start!"

"start"

"Start." The artillerymen of our guild were the first to shout.

"Fire." King Chuang put down his telescope and shouted, a signal was sent from the other side!

"As ordered, main turrets No. 1 to No. 5 are in position, bearing 030, depth plus one, and 'shoot' at top speed."

The two sides used special pyrotechnics signals to communicate, so the pace was relatively uniform. As soon as the artillery fire on our side started firing, the artillery fire on the opposite side also started firing. Of course, the sound cannot be heard from such a distance, but We soon saw huge fireballs rising over the city. It can be clearly seen that the naval guns on the Biling are much stronger than the shore guns here. When a fireball rises, a large area of ​​the city wall is blown away, and the buildings behind it are also bombarded. fall.

"What a powerful force!" a player from our guild who had never seen the bombardment scene of our guild's battleships sighed.

"Of course." Woma said from the side: "Navy guns are weapons designed to deal with heavy armored targets. Its imaginary enemies are steel battleships and reinforced concrete bunkers. How can a city wall with a structure of yellow mud and bluestone be able to withstand its blast? Ah! Now this explosion is just an ordinary ammunition. If you use an explosion-pressure concrete destruction bomb, you will know what it means to be powerful."

"How big can it be?"

"I'll show you and you'll know." Woma shouted to the signalman over there: "Tell Chuang Wang to use explosive concrete destruction bombs to blow off our city gate. Our cannons The caliber is not big enough.”

"clear."

A few minutes later, we suddenly saw a huge red cloud rising above the city wall on our side. The strong light forced us to cover our eyes. About a few seconds later, a strong wind swept over our area. Position, although the blast has no destructive power, we can still feel the terrifying power near the blast point.

When the fireball completely disappeared, we looked at that section of the city wall in surprise. The former city gate head has long since disappeared. And unlike the city walls that were blown down by ordinary cannonballs, we didn't see any broken bricks or anything like that. There was only a pile of sand on the ground, and it was blowing away in the wind.

The Elf Queen only praised the power of our weapons at first, but was not too surprised, but now she is shocked and grinning from ear to ear. "What kind of weapon is this?"

"As I said, it is a detonating concrete destructive projectile. The projectile relies on its own speed to launch the strong wind pressure generated during the explosion in a direction, and then relies on the explosion effect generated by the wind pressure and instantaneous high temperature to destroy buildings and other structures. The object is completely crushed into sand and dust. In fact, this thing is effective on hard things. If it hits a soft mud dam, it will be useless!"

"Oh! Block your ears, it's a cloud bomb!" As we were talking, a terrifying green cloud suddenly appeared over the city. Fortunately, everyone kept staring there, so we discovered it early. The Elf Queen's people didn't understand the situation, so their response was half a beat too slow. I saw the center of the green cloud suddenly light up, followed by a terrifying white aperture that rapidly expanded, and all the buildings under the aperture were instantly wiped out. The Elf Queen and the others were about to praise that thing for its power. Immediately afterwards, a loud noise was heard, and then the whole person was almost blown up. After the blast passed, the queen and her subordinates picked out their ears together, with blank expressions on their faces, obviously shocked. The ground was temporarily deafened.

"Did I tell you to cover your ears?"

"What did you say? Louder. I can only hear a little bit of noise." The Queen roared loudly.

"I told you to cover your ears, and you should do it."

"Oh. But we didn't know it would be so loud!"

"Forget it, forget it, it will recover in a while. The artillery bombardment is almost over, we plan to send the infantry on. Your archers, please follow up and help protect it."

"Got it." The queen turned around, changed her usual gentle tone, and shouted in a loud voice: "Inform the troops to move forward and cover our allies."

"Yes." After receiving the order, the great elf immediately ran to deliver the order, while our people began to gear up and prepare to charge. In fact, attacking the city is nothing more than mopping up. This place is a fortress, not an ordinary city. The area is not large to begin with. The hail of bullets just now has knocked down 80% of the buildings in the city. According to probability analysis. We have killed at least 60% of the troops in the city, and most of the remaining troops are in an unorganized state. It is difficult to imagine that the troops in this situation can still maintain combat effectiveness.

Our heavy infantry began to advance slowly, and chaos immediately began in the city opposite. The previous shelling had completely messed up their city defenses. If we didn't show up, they would have had time to prepare. Now that they see so many troops advancing in a large area, they will naturally withdraw into chaos.

"Tank, Red Thorn, and Lucky, you four dragons will attack together. Try to pick a place with many people to fight."

Large creatures are very advantageous in large wars. Because not all experts will be involved in this kind of battle, and minions are usually unable to deal with these large creatures. Tank and Red Thorn rushed to the front of the team this time. Both of them have exoskeleton protection outside their bodies, which is the best shield for charging, especially Tank. Naming him Tank is really not wrong at all. The infantry who rushed forward behind him had a moving bunker. Unless they were directly hit by heavy artillery, there would be no pause at all. Moreover, the heavy artillery can only make him stop for a while. If you want to kill him, you must use multiple heavy artillery to concentrate the attack or dispatch a large magic crystal cannon. Of course, if you want to kill him with a large magic crystal cannon, you have to consider whether it can hit him. Maybe it will be killed by the magic crystal cannon on the back of the tank before it fires.

After the tank rushed into the ruins of the city wall first, unexpectedly, a giant white beast suddenly stood up from behind the ruins of the city wall. This thing is more than sixty meters tall, walks semi-upright, has white hair all over its body, and has a head that looks a bit like a pig, but its ears are very small. The most prominent thing on its body is its pair of forelimbs. The tip of this thing has a pair of sharp claws that are at least five meters long. I really don’t know what the average person will do if they let it catch it.

"Why is Behemoth here?" Woma turned to ask the Elf Queen.

The Elf Queen also looked confused. "I don't know, they shouldn't have this thing!"

"It's not just Behemoth. Look over there." A member pointed out to us.

I turned my head and looked over, and almost fainted. I saw a house that had been bombarded into ruins suddenly being completely opened to reveal a hole in the ground, and a row of war beasts walked out of it. Behemoth, Mammoth, War Behemoth, and Giant-Winged Thunder Eagle are known as the four ace arms of the Orcs. There are two of them now, and there seem to be quite a few War Behemoths among them. With the area of ​​this city, even if the entire site is filled with war beasts, there shouldn't be too many. Looking at the number, it's obvious that there is a very huge dungeon. Otherwise, there would be no room for so many war beasts.

"It seems that the information is biased!"

"I think so."

From our side, we can clearly see that there are more military types in the city than expected, and the number of each military type is much higher than the intelligence. The other party must have hidden troops. I knew this kind of mission wouldn't be so simple, otherwise it wouldn't be called the World's Best Guild Competition.

We are analyzing the situation here, and a contact battle has already occurred on the battlefield ahead. My tank hit the Behemoth first. Beamon has always been good at attack power, while tanks happen to be good at defense power. As soon as the two big guys met, Beamon waved his five-meter-long claws and hit the tank. People nearby heard a harsh sound of metal friction. Beamon's steel claws rubbed against the tank's body, causing sparks to fly and leaving five white marks on the tank's armor. The tank accelerated suddenly without hesitation. A headbutt knocked Beamon to the ground, and with a bang, the surrounding area instantly became filled with smoke and dust.

"Monster war!"

"Get out of the way of irrelevant personnel. Those who cannot take care of the people around them when fighting large creatures, give them fighting space." I flew above the battlefield and shouted to our people.

Behemoth is not twice as kind. After being overturned, he immediately jumped up and then rushed towards the tank. The tank's huge mantis-like forelimbs suddenly slashed past, Behemoth stretched out his claws, and there was a loud sound. The forces on both sides were evenly matched. No one can push the other away. Behemoth's claws were restrained, and he immediately opened his mouth and bit fiercely, but Tank was more ruthless than him and directly fired a pyroblast bomb. With no room to dodge at such a close distance, Beamon was knocked over and turned upside down.

Behemoth, who had suffered a loss, wanted to turn over and get up, but the tank had already rushed over with a rumbling vibration. With a bang, the two creatures collided together again, but this time Behemoth could not withstand the impact of the tank. The tank accelerated all the way with inertia. Beamon had just climbed up from the ground, so he was naturally no match.

I originally thought that the tank would complete its mission, but unexpectedly, a halo suddenly flew over from the side and fell on Behemoth. Then Behemoth roared to the sky and overturned the tank with great force.

"What a shame! He actually used the bloodthirsty aura!" I discovered that there was an Orc Shaman standing next to Beamon, but with his size standing next to Beamon, it was really difficult to attract other people's attention.

Behemoth, who overturned the confession, was excited and wanted to rush in to take advantage. Of course I would not watch my magic pet get hurt. Quickly turned eternity into a throwing spear. Then he threw it towards Beamon's eyes. "Hit." Behemoth's eyes instantly burst into blood holes.

Ouch... Behemoth looked up to the sky and screamed. He staggered back a few steps and then fell to the ground with a bang. Then he began to shake his head desperately to pull out the spear from his eyes.

I point to eternity. "Assimilation of demonic flames."

A large area of ​​hell flame suddenly ignited on the surface of the eternally changing spear. Beamon screamed again, then rolled on the ground in pain. Behemoth is not a creature that is good at defense. Many people think that Behemoth has high defense, but they are actually deceived by his super high blood volume. On the surface, it seems that it can't be killed no matter how hard you beat it. In fact, that's because it has too much blood, not because it has better defense than Mongolia.

The spear that 'shot' into the eye has been judged as a critical attack, and the damage value is much higher than that of hitting other locations. Moreover, my attack power is not low. Behemoth's blood volume leaks super fast like a water tank with holes. .

Seeing that Beamon could no longer withstand it, the shaman behind him became anxious and quickly threw a strong aura and a wound healing technique on Beamon, but my gun was on fire and the damage was increasing. Wound healing has absolutely no effect on this. Behemoth was still rolling on the ground in pain, showing no signs of weakening at all. But if they continue to make up for it like this, I think it may take some time to kill Beamon. I don't want to deal damage to the opponent repeatedly, so I just rush in and kill the shaman first.

There has always been a saying among players: the warrior who is least like a warrior is an elf warrior, and the mage who is least like a mage is an orc shaman. The shaman I bumped into fully made me understand the meaning of this sentence. This guy is obviously a mage, but his physical attack power is frighteningly high, and his body is as strong as a calf, many times stronger than his peers. If mages were like this, warriors wouldn't have to mess around. It seems that some players' suggestion that shaman should be classified into the magic sword profession classification still makes some sense.

"The arrogant elves actually invited allies. But you are still no match for us orcs." The shaman saw me rushing towards him without any fear. He held the mace-level staff and swung it. Come over.

As soon as I landed on the ground, I took advantage of the inertia of my fall and squatted down. The mace-like staff just passed over my head. I then kicked the ground hard and jumped out suddenly. . With a very cool move of my hand, the bleeding blade claw automatically bounced back into the machine gate, while the shaman behind me fell down in disbelief, clutching his stomach.

"Behemoth, I have to be careful. Even a shaman dares to yell at me." I turned around and kicked the shaman's body away, then pointed at my back, then at Behemoth, and two half-moons came out of the commandments. The ring detached itself and quickly spun towards Behemoth, who was still wailing.

Ouch... Another scream. A large gash was cut out at the wrist of Beamon's hind paw, and blood spurted out like a flood. The flow rate was definitely more powerful than a fire hose.

The blood here hasn't finished flowing yet, and the rotating half-moon has come back again. There was another bloody mouth, this time on the inside of the wrist joint of the forelimb. The locations where I started were all where major arteries were located. Even if Behemoth had an amazing amount of blood, it would still drain if I opened a few more holes.

When I attacked Beamon, the kung fu tank had already turned over. I took advantage of Beamon being injured all over his body and rushed forward with a thrust. Behemoth was harassed by me, and before he could react, he was hit in the stomach. Tank's forearm passed directly through Behemoth's stomach. Behemoth was so painful that even his screams changed the tone. But the tanks were not about to stop attacking. His claws moved to the side and immediately opened a horizontal hole in Beamon's stomach, and the internal organs spurted out from Beamon's stomach like an explosion. The tank didn't care. He just took a bite and bit off a large piece of some internal organs. Beamon almost breathed away from the pain. He didn't know whether the pain stimulated his potential or whether it was a flashback. In short, Beamon suddenly burst out with strength and hit the side of the tank with a fierce palm. A loud bang knocked the tank to the ground again. It also left a deep scratch on the tank, but it still failed to penetrate the tank's exoskeleton.

Tanks are not good either. Before being beaten away, he hooked his claws into someone's intestines, but this time he pulled out a large section of Behemoth's intestines. The tank was about to get up and fight again, when a shell flew from nowhere and shot right through the hole in Beamon's belly. With a bang, Beamon's body split into two instantly. The upper half of the body flew upwards for more than ten meters before falling back to the ground, while the lower half directly turned into a pile of rotten meat.

"I hit! Haha, I hit!" At this time, in our artillery position behind the position, the Elf Queen was shouting happily. Having seen how powerful our artillery was before, she couldn't help but want to give it a try. Unexpectedly, she hit it with one shot.

Woma stood next to the Elf Queen and said: "The elves' ability to use flying and shooting weapons is so good! It's my first time to play with cannons and I can hit it so accurately!"

The people in the rear were having fun, but the tank and I in the position were a little depressed. The monster that was clearly ready to be finished was killed by a single shot, which made us feel like we had no place to use our strength. But this bad feeling soon disappeared, because we soon discovered that there are many things that make us exert our strength.

The war beasts crawling out from the underground exits have dispersed and are spreading in all directions. Although our members and members of the elves resisted desperately, the effect was very bad. War beasts are different from Behemoth. These guys have really high defense. Even though each war beast was shot like a hedgehog by the elven archers when they first came out of the underground exit, this did not matter at all. cannot influence their actions. The appearance of the war beast is like a hairy hippopotamus, and the body is slightly thinner. The hippo's hooves have to be replaced with sharp claws. Moreover, the war beast's head looks a bit like a unicorn, but it does not have the unicorn shape. It has horns, but it has a T-shaped horn in front of its nose. In fact, instead of calling this thing a horn, it might as well be called a collision horn. Due to the shape of its tip, it is impossible to cause piercing damage, so it cannot be counted as a horn.

In addition to their huge bodies and extremely high defense, these furry tanks also have two powerful natal magics. One is thunder and lightning with superior single-target attack power, and the other is chain lightning with even more astonishing power. Both of these tricks belong to a type of magic that any mage would want to learn, and the two magics used by the war beast are affected by the effects of the natal magic, and are much more powerful than ordinary people's magic. Our players were all dumbfounded when faced with such a giant beast. Bows and arrows couldn't hurt it at all. It didn't seem like a good idea to rush in and chop off someone's toes.

I originally wanted to rush forward and engage in a melee with the war beast, but now is not the time to show personal heroism. I am the president of a large guild, which determines that I tend to do things with my head rather than my hands. I ordered the tank to go over and hold down a giant war beast, while I turned around and flew towards the Bi Ling.

"President, why are you here?"

"Why don't I come to you and fight on your own?" I pointed at the giant war beast over there. "Are you sure you'll hit it?"

"It's possible to hit, but you have to keep the players in your guild away. Even if we can hit, the probability is 2 out of 3. It would be bad if a cannonball falls into the crowd of our own people."

"Okay, I'll go back and tell everyone to disperse. You wait until I reach the city and start the bombardment in one minute."

"knew."

It was such a hard life that I had to fly back to the sky above the city and order everyone to take shelter first. Almost as soon as the crowd started to move, I heard the sound of cannonballs breaking through the air. How did this guy Chuang Wang keep time? Although it was a bit dangerous for the shelling to be so close, the results of the first round of shelling were quite satisfactory. Along with the rising fireballs, one by one the war beasts fell down wailing.

No matter how high the defense of the war beast is, it is still a living thing. The Biling's cannonballs are specially designed to deal with buildings and steel battleships. The skin of the war beast cannot stop this thing. After a round of shelling, half of the war beasts were reduced, and the remaining war beasts began to panic and prepare to escape. Unfortunately, they were knocked down by the second round of bullets before they could decide which way to run.

"Send a signal to King Chuang to concentrate his fire on the exit of the underground city and bury the remaining enemies alive inside." I flew to the formation and said to the member who sent the order.

After receiving the order, Chuang Wang directly used the deep-destruction bomb. This is a delayed-explosion artillery shell. After hitting an object, it will wait for a while before exploding. It can effectively destroy the facilities inside the target, and of course, it can also destroy the underground city. The large rain of bullets trapped all the orcs who had not yet had time to climb out in the underground city. With the bombardment, varying degrees of subsidence appeared in the city, and it was obvious that the underground was empty.

We were watching the artillery show when suddenly a big elf came over and whispered something in the queen's ear, and then the elf queen's expression gradually became serious.

"Your Majesty, what happened?"

The Elf Queen nodded: "Something did happen."
