Volume 20 Chapter 118 Ten Thousand Guns of Defense

"**, flash!"

While I was looking at the coastline, I suddenly noticed that the fog in front of me flashed like thunder a few times. Then I suddenly thought of what this phenomenon represented, and quickly reminded Lucky to dodge. 【】

In fact, even if I didn't warn Lucky, I wouldn't be able to just wait to be beaten. After all, having such big eyes on his head is not just for good looks. This is comparable to the first-class light-gathering ability of the pupil of a small astronomical telescope. When I saw the flash of light over there, he also saw the same picture. And unlike me, I only saw it by amplifying the star pupil, and Luck itself has such a range of senses, and more importantly, not only do people have good eyes, but they also have good ears. I only saw a flash, but luckily I heard a roar.

Lucky, who knew what was on the other side, quickly retracted his wings and pressed down fiercely. Then he saw three purple meteor-like things flying from a distance with long flame tails, and then brought them with them. A piercing whistling sound flashed over our heads, and then we heard three booming explosions from behind us. I looked back and took a look and found that a stone pillar behind us was unfortunately hit by a purple meteor. When it hit, it was immediately blown to pieces. The entire stone pillar was completely blown to pieces before it fell down.

Seeing the destructive power of those three purple meteors, we didn't want to be hit even more, but the opponent's target was obviously us. The big flash we saw before was clearly the muzzle flash of the cannon when it was fired. As for why there are cannons on the island, this must only be attributed to Zeus' head. But then again. "What the hell kind of cannon is this? Why is the rate of fire so abnormal?" Just after we saw the three shells in front of us shattering the stone pillars, there was another burst of light on the coastline over there, and this time It wasn't three shells, but a large one that came flying with a roar.

From the flight trajectories of the cannonballs, we can see that some of the cannonballs clearly come from the same gun, and the shells from one gun actually appear in the same barrage. What does this mean? This shows that this gun has the ability to fire continuously, and its speed is extremely exaggerated.

"Hold on tight." Lucky reminded me as I looked at the barrage roaring in front of me. Immediately afterwards, I felt a sense of weightlessness, and then suddenly the weightlessness disappeared, but what followed was an extremely terrifying upward movement. The acceleration and huge propulsion force made me almost unable to stand up on Lucky Head. But fortunately, this feeling disappeared quickly, because Lucky started to roll halfway up, and my whole body also started to rotate. For a moment, I just felt that the sky and the earth were spinning. One moment, there was a blue sky above my head, and another moment, I felt like the sky was spinning. The sea flashes again and again.

After several consecutive rolls, Lucky returned to the climbing state. However, he was once again forced back to the low-altitude range by artillery shells not long after he had risen. It was obvious that the opponent was not shooting blindly, but was aiming and shooting with purpose. Fortunately, Lucky Flexibility is not a guarantee. Such dense shells bombarded us for a long time, but they didn't even hit us, and very few even missed us.

"We can't keep getting beaten like this!" Lucky shouted while dodging the shells.

I nodded and summoned Everett directly and pointed to the coastline ahead. Everett immediately nodded and began to transform. As the armor reorganized, Everett soon turned into something like a collar. , of course large in size, because he is surrounded by Lucky's neck. After being fixed on Lucky's neck in this form, Everett immediately unfolded two thin-looking metal sticks from both sides, and followed the sticks to rotate forward, pointing the interruption at the coastline ahead.

"What are you planning to hit with such a small thing?" Lucky asked as he flew.

Everett directly answered Lucky's question with action, because two red beams of light flew directly out, and then a row of huge flashes of light exploded on the coastline. It wasn't until the explosion sound came over that side that Everett explained: "Although the high-energy ray cannon has a small caliber, it has strong penetrating power and has a strong thermal effect around the launch trajectory, so it is perfect for blasting. "It's a good weapon, but don't you think the attack range is a bit small?" Lucky said as he dodged sideways at high speed, followed by a purple light bullet flying past us. Obviously, Everett's attack only caused the opponent to scrap one or two artillery pieces, because the density of shelling around us did not decrease significantly.

"Please, do I have a professional artillery group? I'm not good at this kind of thing, okay?"

After thinking about it, I just lined up Everett and Lucky and stuffed them back into the training space. As the birds appeared under me, four long flame tails suddenly spurted out from behind the afterburner.

As we followed, we began to climb rapidly. The rain of shells below obviously couldn't keep up with the movement speed of the flying birds, and the shells slipped under us one after another. However, just when the opponent was calculating the advance and starting to adjust in front of us, Asuka suddenly turned sideways and then performed a large-angle maneuver, and the barrage was instantly thrown away.

Although the dragon's agility is quite good, its size is a bit too big after all. Being able to dodge the bombardment under such a dense rain of shells is already the limit. In comparison, the flying bird has a smaller

Due to his size and higher maneuverability, he can easily escape the pursuit of the barrage. The flying shells behind him can't even reach us, let alone hit us.

Amidst the dazzling aerobatic performances of flying birds, we were already close to the island. At this time, the situation on the edge of the island has completely entered our sight range, and the mist has basically disappeared here. Although the fog can still be felt a little, it basically does not affect the sight range.

From here we can clearly see that the coastline on the edge of the island is not the beach as imagined, but a row of neat black cliffs. The height of the towering cliff is at least sixty meters high, and many densely packed holes have been dug out on the entire cliff. From these holes, one can clearly see ancient bronze pipes with extremely complex structures extending out of the cave. Although I didn't know what this thing was, I could guess at a glance that it was definitely the source of the shells that just attacked us. In other words, these strange-shaped tubes are actually gun barrels, and the holes dug out are clearly hidden gun emplacements similar to bunkers.

In fact, in addition to the running positions in the cave in front of you, there is also a circle of running positions completely exposed to the outside at the top of the cliff. Compared with the cannons in the cave, these exposed equipment are easier for people to see clearly.

First of all, these things that are suspected of being artillery can definitely not be artillery. From a structural point of view, these should be energy weapons. The previous artillery shells also indirectly proved this guess. Those purple things with flame tails are obviously not what live ammunition should look like, but they are definitely not magic crystal cannon shells, because although the magic crystal cannon shells look exactly the same as the previous shells, they are fired by the magic crystal cannon. The flying speed of the cannonballs is quite slow, and some people can even dodge directly with their flexible movements. However, the flying speed of those cannonballs just now clearly exceeded the speed of sound, and was at least three times the speed of sound. Such a fast shell cannot be fired by a magic crystal cannon.

The barrels of these guns are not cylindrical, but have the marked cubic column shape.

The square barrel is covered with complex lines, which look very similar to ancient Egyptian writing. The part behind the barrel is a huge gun body. The structure of this thing is very complicated. Just looking at the pipes and wires hanging outside makes people's scalp numb, let alone how many things are installed inside.

In addition to the complex body and the unique barrel, this gun also has a very special feature, that is, it has an oversized cylinder. The giant cylinder, which looks like a revolver drum, almost occupies the entire space. One-third of the entire cannon's volume, its diameter even exceeds the width of the gun mount, and its top is also significantly higher than the cannon itself.

"It looks like a new type of weapon." Asuka teased me while flying: "Do you have a desire to collect? I know boss, you have a collecting habit." In response to Asuka's teasing, I nodded and admitted: "It is indeed worth getting. Let’s go back and study them one by one, but for now… it’s better to let them calm down first.”

The flying bird rushed past the running position on the top of the cliff at top speed. Those cannons seemed to be fully automatic. Even without seeing the gunner, they could automatically track and aim and fire quickly. And with the roar of the cannons, the huge bomb nest It will also rotate like the drum of a dryer, but this thing does not seem to throw out the shells. When it is launched, it only sprays high-pressure steam diagonally rearward from the four nozzles on both sides. This further confirms that this thing is actually It's an energy weapon.

Since we flew over the top of the cliff, the cannons in the bunkers on the outside of the cliff lost their range of fire. The forts on the top of the cliff could turn around and continue shooting, but just as they turned around the muzzle At the same time, space doors opened silently outside the cliff.

"Ouch" accompanied by a lucky dragon roar, all my large magic pets jumped out of the space door. Because the cannons have been aiming at me, all the muzzles were pointed in the direction of the island at this time, but luckily they appeared in the direction of the outside of the island, which is equivalent to appearing directly behind the movement. Those cannons that didn't know whether they were fully automatic weapons or remote-controlled weapons wanted to turn the muzzle immediately after Lucky and the others appeared. Unfortunately, it was obviously too late to adjust the direction at this time.

Lucky, who was the first to come out, stepped on the cannon directly in front, then went up and bit the huge mechanical body behind the cannon. With this heart-wrenching sound of metal twisting, the cannon's The rear part rapidly deformed and dented at a speed visible to the naked eye. Finally, with a bang and a cloud of smoke ejected from the barrel, the cannon was completely scrapped.

Lucky, who had bitten a cannon, did not stop there, but immediately ran to the side. However, this time he no longer destroyed the cannon body, but went up and slapped the barrel into a bow shape with one claw. . Compared with the huge and strong gun body, the gun barrel is actually more susceptible to damage.

Lucky's side moved forward all the way, destroying the movement one by one, and the other magic pets in other positions were also idle. Relying on their large size, they completely gave up all kinds of tricks and relied entirely on their own size advantage to force the way. All those cannons were removed from their running positions. These weapons can rotate because they have fixed rotating chassis at the bottom. When they are overturned, they completely lose their ability to move. In addition, when Crystal overturned a cannon, she also discovered that there were power pipes connected to the bottom of the cannon. This means that these cannons actually rely on external energy to work. As long as they leave their chassis, they will immediately lose energy.

Although the demon pets moved quickly, they moved too much, so in the end they only had time to clear the forts in the area where I flew in. They couldn't control the forts further away, because those cannons had already been moved by this time. I turned around, but before they fired, all my familiars had already entered the training space and disappeared.

The purpose of letting the demon pets destroy the forts is just so that they won’t be disturbed by the energy of the forts when they leave. It’s not that I want to destroy all the forts on the entire island. Although this island is not big, the fort defense line surrounding the island must have tens of thousands of cannons just for the few in the circle. It would take at least a day for demon pets like me to destroy all these cannons. Besides, There's no point in destroying all the cannons, right?

After the demon pets returned to the training space, I didn't rush towards the island, but turned around and returned to the edge of the cliff. Since all the cannons in this area have been destroyed, and the cannons in the distance have no shooting range, I will not be attacked by artillery fire as long as I don't leave the ground. This is the bad thing about energy cannons. Because the cannonballs have no weight, they will fly in a straight line when launched. Therefore, any artillery principles such as slinging and projecting are useless here. Apart from direct-aiming shooting, this energy cannon has no second shooting method at all. Therefore, although they know that I am here, they are unable to fire because of obstacles and can only let me walk back in a swagger.

After returning to the edge of the cliff, I stood on the edge of the cliff and stretched my head to look down. After confirming that there were no obstacles, I stepped out of the cliff in one step. As my feet stepped into the air, I immediately fell downwards. However, after falling a few meters, I stretched out my wings. Using the power of the fall, I adjusted my flight posture and easily glided to a bunker-style run. In front of the shooting port, he put his hand on the edge of the shooting port, retracted his wings, and slipped through the shooting port like a flexible water snake.

Originally, I thought that the environment inside the shooting port should be as empty as the one above, with only one cannon quietly dormant there. After all, the automatic cannon above had already given me a preconceived impression. However, the fact is that the running position below is not only not empty, but also quite crowded.

"Don't move." As soon as I rolled into the shooting port and landed, I immediately heard a loud shout, followed by a neat clatter. When I looked up, I saw at least two hundred people standing in front of me in a semicircle. A shaped encirclement, and everyone stood in a three-stage shooting array holding a rifle-like thing with a beautifully patterned appearance, aiming their guns at my head.

"Damn, this is a big deal!"! .
