Chapter 202: Fierce Battle on the Defense Line II [Subscribe]

Above the scorched earth, a strong smell of burning permeated the air.

The area in front of the temporary defense line was like a furnace, and even the air was slightly distorted due to the high heat.

In the layout of the defense line, Magtan City has invested a lot of money.

The flame pit used a lot of precious magic materials. A total of twelve concentrated flame streams will burn the monsters trapped in it into charcoal. Each flame stream is equivalent to the power of the third-level fire magic, which can maintain the flame spray for several minutes!

Even if it is filled with soil at this time, the cracks in the soil are still full of flames.

The surging flames below seem to be ready to burst out at any time.

However, the monsters don't care about this. Affected by the dark mandala light curtain, they are always in a frenzy and are ready to fight to the death.

Almost as soon as the burrowing worms retreated, the remaining black-backed pigs and dog demons howled and stepped on the hot scorched earth, vowing to flatten the southern front!

The soil in the hastily filled pit was very soft, and the monsters stepped on it, making it more compact, and naturally there was a downward arc again.

And with the continuous spray of flames, the soil was scorched hot.

Looking around, the location of the pit was emitting orange-red light.

Black smoke was rising, and from time to time, several smaller flames would burst out from the gap.

All the monsters passing through there were affected, and the chaotic magic power on their bodies was also consumed.

So this pit now became a kind of "hot feet" debuff for monsters.

After crossing the fire pit, the monster cluster officially entered the 100-meter moving average of the defense line.

All adventurers and mercenaries on the temporary city wall suddenly became nervous.

"Shield warriors, form a formation!"

"Long spear team, follow up, set up spears as a ridge, and prepare for hand-to-hand combat."

"The second echelon, stand by!"

"Front shooters and spellcasters, retreat to the third echelon of the village guard!"

"Shooters and spellcasters in the back defense, prepare to fight!"

"Sentinels, notify the third circle of defense, open the gates, and prepare for support!"

The person in charge of temporary command is the deputy lieutenant in the garrison, named Tansen Mars.

He has a slightly ostentatious light golden hair, is good at fighting with a two-handed sword, has a very fierce fighting style, and his magic element cultivation is close to the peak of the silver level, which is considered a first-line strongman in the city.

Therefore, Tansen is also known as the "Lion of Magtan City".

If the magic disaster does not break out, he will be able to smoothly enter the gold level in one or two Naroa years at most.

At that time, he will be transferred to the giant city of Attucks and hold an important position in a certain legion.

Chen Xuan has no intention of taking over the command.

He knew his own strengths and weaknesses. Before he had experienced a large-scale monster war, he was a rookie in the legion-level command and combat.

Every profession has its own expertise, and the tactical arrangements for dealing with monsters should be left to the natives.

He only needed to grasp the general plan.

Anyway, the demonic disaster concerns everyone's life, and no one would cheat in such a matter.

Especially those officers who are vested interests in the city will risk their lives to defend the city.

In addition, there is a slave contract as a guarantee.

Tansen Mars has also signed a contract with him.

At present, all the middle and high-level officials in the city are Chen's slaves without exception.

As for the bottom, only the two black street forces, the Coolie Mule and the Broken Finger Gang, are completely controlled by the contract.

Others, such as scattered mercenaries, adventurers or garrison teams, he cannot contract them for the time being.

In the distance, Tansen had a tough face, firm eyebrows and eyes, a pair of decent mustaches on his lips, and a set of standard light armor for Bangcheng officers.

He had been standing in a tower not far from the front line from the beginning to the end, with several flag soldiers around him.

He issued a series of instructions while activating the fire trap.

The archers and spellcasters who were originally not far behind the first line quickly left the commanding heights and retreated to the third echelon 500 meters behind to re-garrison.

The second echelon, more than 200 meters away from the temporary city wall, was ready to fight back.

At the same time, the warriors holding shields, spears, and swords almost pressed the temporary city wall, arranging several shield walls at intervals of 30 to 40 meters like speed bumps, and posing a close combat posture.

Through flags and magic horns, his orders were quickly transmitted to all places.

This meant that they were about to abandon the city wall.

The next step was a wave of resistance, with the help of the chevaux de frise, roadblocks and traps arranged in the village, the impact of the monsters was dispersed, and then evacuated from the side roads to the city tower defense line.

Chen Xuan pulled the trigger frantically, and the M2 heavy machine gun sprayed deadly gun flames.

Bullets were fired at the black-backed pigs that were charging headfirst with great kinetic energy.

He turned his head and winked at Ophelia and the little cat girl not far away.

The two girls understood his meaning instantly, stopped firing without hesitation, raised the receiver and jumped several times to retreat to the higher point of the tower further back.

At this time, the orc shield warrior named Mogroga beside Chen Xuan looked at him with a complicated expression.

When he turned around, his eyes became extremely determined.

As the shooters and spellcasters evacuated one after another, the long-range attack at the temporary defense line of Magtan City was completely stopped.

On the other hand, the "artillery positions" built by the Death Light Rhinoceros, Eye Demons and Headless Stone Demons were ruthlessly pouring attacks on the temporary positions.

Every minute and every second, dozens of light balls, stone bullets or explosive goblins fell.

There were also hundreds of Eye Demon beams sweeping everywhere.

Under such circumstances, the magic shield generation device on the front line quickly collapsed.

The shields that looked like colorful mushroom caps were shattered one after another.

Fortunately, the front line had been cleared long ago, and the shield warriors used their own means to launch defensive magic skills, while activating the protective scrolls or protective jewelry they carried, and built a new front line.

All the situations happened in seconds.

Just when Rebecca and Ophelia retreated to the rear.

The surviving more than 2,000 black-backed pigs rushed to the city like a tide!

"Boom!"

"Bang bang bang!"

The reinforced sandwich wall shook violently.

One after another, the black-backed pigs rammed the wall fearlessly.

The vines and wooden walls on the surface were knocked open, revealing the stones piled inside.

Thousands of black-backed pigs rammed the wall at the same time, causing the wall to shake.

After all, it was just a temporary defense line, and could not be compared with the repeatedly reinforced towers of Magtan City.

And at the same time when the black-backed pigs rammed the wall, the dog demons also jumped up and stepped on their companions' bodies to jump onto the top of the wall.

The frontline soldiers built a strong shield wall to resist the dog demons, and the soldiers assisting behind them stabbed with their spears.

Chen Xuan had already put away the M2 heavy machine gun, and he was floating in the air more than a hundred meters above the ground with light blue wind spirit magic around him. This was the effect of the second-level wind magic floating spell.

Just when the dog demons and black-backed pigs launched a charge and engaged in close combat with the front-line soldiers.

Those flying monsters flew over in a black mass.

Chen Xuan stared intently at Tansen Mars, who was in the tower behind.

He kept watching the situation on the scene, his expression serious and indifferent.

As the dog demons continued to surge onto the wall, the shield warriors at the front began to collapse.

There was a visible gap in the battle line, and even some dog demons crossed the first melee defense line and rushed to the rear in scattered pieces, and were sniped by the second-line shooters.

The temporary sandwich wall also became shaky under the fierce charge of the black-backed pigs.

"Strong wind blows! Retreat at the front!"

The order from the tower made the warriors on the front line feel like they had been pardoned!

To be honest, even if they had long been determined to die, when the monster group came to them and the ferocious dog demons jumped up and crushed on the shields, everyone still felt unspeakable fear.

Compared with the monster group, the battle line they built was like a sandbag blocking the waves, and sooner or later it would be submerged by the surging tide.

The number of defenders on the outer defense line of Magtan City is about the same as that of the second round of monster phalanxes.

But the quality is far inferior.

More than 80% of the adventurers and mercenaries participating in the garrison are at the level of Black Iron, about 15% are at the level of Bronze, and the remaining half are at Silver.

And most of them are at the early to middle stage of Silver.

After all, this is a stage of cultivation that requires long-term accumulation of hard work.

Facing the cluster attack composed of second-level, third-level and even fourth-level monsters, it is normal that they cannot resist.

In addition, adventurers and mercenaries usually fight in small teams and have not received combat training for established legions. They are particularly struggling to cope with the situation in front of them.

The fact that there is no major rout is considered to be a strong psychological quality for them.

Fortunately, the Bangcheng Command has already made evacuation plans for each stage.

The large magic circle buried behind the temporary city wall took effect instantly.

The erratic strong wind whistled up and suddenly formed a wind wall.

The strong wind blew away the dog demons and black-backed pigs that were rushing towards them.

Taking this opportunity, the front-line warriors quickly retreated, leaving behind two or three hundred corpses.

At this time, a large group of bat-winged demons and rotten vultures flew over the defense line first.

The huge rotten heart demon eagle was at the end of the line further back.

In an instant, the wind wall with strong airflow below swirled into the air.

It was like a broom made of wind that blew the flying monster cluster into a mess.

But the strong wind blowing magic also disintegrated and dissipated afterwards.

This wave bought nearly half a minute of precious time for the front line.

"Boom!"

The ground in the distance kept shaking.

Tubular burrowing worms shuttled in and out, and only slowed down their digging speed slightly when they were blocked by the hardened ground outside the city wall!

Taking advantage of the opportunity to break through the temporary city wall, almost all of the second round of monster phalanxes pressed forward.

In a blink of an eye, it brought huge pressure to the southern line.

"Crack!"

"Boom boom boom..."

When the strong wind ended and the frontline soldiers evacuated, the sandwich wall collapsed under the impact of the black-backed pigs.

Chen Xuan floated in the air, with two M134 7.62MM six-barrel machine guns in his hands.

Behind him was a huge backpack ammunition belt box.

This ammunition belt box was loaded with 7,500 rounds of 7.62mm ammunition!

Inserting the ammunition belts at both ends into the receiver, he changed from dual-wielding M2 heavy machine guns to dual-wielding M134 "Terminator".

Hundreds of kilograms of weight were no pressure for him.

Suspended in the air, Chen Xuan watched the wall collapse, and the black-backed pigs, dog demons and burrowing worms on the ground almost rushed into the defense line in no particular order.

The bat-winged demons and poisonous vultures in the air also quickly adjusted their flight postures, like a dark cloud covering them.

The screaming rotten heart demon eagles pulled away from each other, their sharp eagle eyes locked below, ready to attack at any time.

Chen Xuan pressed the click switch of the M134 when he saw this.

The small motor was started by the lithium battery.

The six barrels rotated along the central axis and officially entered the pre-fire stage.

After the adjustment, he pulled the trigger!

"Da Da Da Da Da Da..."

The sound of bullets coming out of the barrels appeared so dense that they almost overlapped.

Two gun flames radiating nearly half a meter were particularly eye-catching.

At the same time, there were two fragmented light chains whose trajectories could not be seen clearly.

In the absence of tracer bullets, the fired bullets did not actually emit light.

At most, they would emit a short light during the flight due to air friction and the primer that had not yet burned out.

This time, Chen Xuan ignored the monsters charging on the ground, but aimed his gun barrel at the bat-winged monsters and corrosive vultures flapping their wings!

Multi-barreled rapid-fire machine gun used as a vehicle.

The maximum firing rate of M134 can reach 7,000 rounds per minute.

However, its actual firing rate is limited by the battlefield environment and the amount of ammunition, and can basically only reach 3,000 to 3,500 rounds per minute, which is used for fire suppression and support in a short period of time.

But Chen Xuan has no such concerns.

He can ensure full-speed firing for half a minute when dual-wielding with a special ammunition belt box on his back.

In other words, hundreds of bullets are fired almost every second.

Multi-barreled machine guns can be said to be the firing rate limit of human individual weapons.

In the future, whether it is a multi-barrel matrix, a super-high-speed close-in defense gun, or the famous Metal Storm, it will not be considered an individual weapon.

Especially the Metal Storm, which does not even have the shape of a firearm, but is completely a group of iron boxes.

The structure is actually similar to the multi-barreled salute and fireworks of Xia Country.

An amazing scene appeared on the scene.

Chen Xuan in the air held two rotary machine guns, confronting the flying monster cluster alone, pouring fire crazily.

Looking up from below, the two half-meter-long gun flames were not conspicuous.

Chen Xuan was even smaller than the flying monster cluster.

But his attack was quite effective, like a small knife cutting off a piece of rotten meat with the naked eye.

On average, one or two rotten vultures or bat-winged demons were shot down every second.

However, the distance between the two sides was also rapidly closing, and he was like a lone boat that could be swallowed up at any time.

Just when Chen Xuan was about to be surrounded.

He suddenly disappeared from the spot and appeared about a hundred meters behind.

This is the effect of [Flash in the Same Domain].

Now he can no longer hide his shortcomings.

The Naroa continent may fall into full turmoil at any time, and it is a good time for heroes, brave men and strangers to rise.

And Chen Xuan is destined to make a name for himself in this world!

The Demonic Disaster of Magtan City is his first battle medal!
