Chapter 267: The Shock of the Mountain Giant

Not to mention the shock that the collapse of the walls of the Brak Fortress brought to the human soldiers, in a sense, the collapsed walls did allow the army inside the fortress to leave the fortress faster and fight against the night elf team.

However, after discovering that the night elves could even break down the walls, and seeing the bloody passages scraped out by several siege giant blades in the human army, some human soldiers chose to retreat. However, this also enabled the human army that chose to resist to leave the fortress very quickly.

Carrying the rain of arrows and boulders that kept falling from the sky, a hundred thousand human troops gathered in front of the collapsed wall in just a few minutes. Some of the first human soldiers had already rushed to a position close to the night elf formation a hundred meters away, waving their weapons in a disorderly manner and rushing towards the ancient guardians and the glaive throwers in between, obviously wanting to destroy the glaive throwers.

Of course, the night elves would not let these mobs get close. After the human army rushed out of the Brak Fortress, the archers in the rear shifted their targets from the city to the human soldiers rushing out of the city.

"Swoosh--" Although it was only a distance of about 100 meters, for the charging human soldiers, this 100 meters was like a natural moat that they could not cross. As long as they rushed to a position about 100 meters away from the ancient guardians and the glaive throwers, there would be accurate arrows that took the lives of these ferocious human soldiers.

There were 5,000 archers arranged in the rear of the night elves, each of them was a sharpshooter who never missed a shot. And it was obviously impossible for the human soldiers to advance in a row of 5,500, which made the night elf archers with extremely fast shooting speed and occasional skills firmly control the human army's line of troops within 100 meters.

But even so, the archers of the human army and some accompanying mages were able to attack the glaive throwers and the ancient guardians. However, their attack could not form a scale because the team was too chaotic and there was no unified commander. This makes the Ancient Guardian, who has extremely high durability and becomes a city armor unit after taking root, not afraid of these attacks at all.

You know, the damage of the city armor to piercing attacks and magic attacks such as bows and arrows is reduced to one-fourth. Coupled with the already high armor value, the Ancient Guardian can indeed be competent for the task of serving as a city wall after taking root.

However, the Glaive Throwers are not as tough as the Ancient Guardians. After several Glaive Throwers were accidentally damaged by the messy long-range attacks of the human troops, Tyrande withdrew the Glaive Throwers from the front to the back.

After all, the walls of the Brak Fortress have been destroyed by the Glaive Throwers, and the Glaive Throwers are not particularly effective against the army. I am afraid that they will not be used much in the subsequent battles.

As more and more soldiers poured out of the Brak Fortress through the collapsed walls, the archers gradually couldn't stop the human troops who were attacking the night elf formation like crazy. At this time, Tyrande's eyes were cold, and she ordered the mountain giants and claw druids to walk out of the bushes formed by the ancient guardians and stand in front.

Eight hundred mountain giants stopped condensing boulders to throw, and they all grabbed the giant sticks stuck on the ground beside them and walked forward to meet the human troops. Mountain giants originally had no weapons. Even if they were transformed into siege units by pulling up trees, an ordinary tree would only be enough for mountain giants to attack about ten times before it would be damaged.

However, this is naturally not a problem in front of the Hunter's Hall. After the mutation, the Hunter's Hall can even exchange for things like the exclusive equipment of heroes, so how could it not exchange for the equipment of mountain giants? The giant sticks held by the mountain giants now are naturally the equipment exchanged from the Hunter's Hall.

Thick Earth Giant Stick: Increases attack power by one star and increases the melee attack range. Because it condenses the power of the earth element, it is not easy to be damaged, and is limited to giant creatures.

Although this thick earth club does not have fire or other attribute attacks like the hunter's enchanted moon blade, it is enough for the mountain giants to use it just by increasing the attack power and being less vulnerable.

The thick earth club does not increase the attack power of the mountain giants too much, but this equipment can also make the attack range of the mountain giants with shorter arms a little farther, which can be said to have greatly improved the combat effectiveness of the mountain giants, so that they are no longer just a meat shield and siege unit.

Behind the mountain giants, there are more claw druids who have transformed into earth bears, lightning leopards or wind wolves. Although the lightning leopards and wind wolves are better at magic attacks, as monsters, their melee strength is still slightly better than that of humans of the same level, and they are fully capable of serving as melee troops.

As for the reaction of the human troops, they were naturally stunned. Although some human soldiers had observed mountain giants on the city wall, they were obviously not as tall as the ancient guardians, and because of the distance, not many people paid much attention to these stone giants that were considered long-range troops.

But now these stone giants that were considered long-range units were charging forward with giant sticks that looked creepy, obviously wanting to have a close-up with the human soldiers.

"Hiss--" When the brave and fearless human soldiers who were lucky enough not to be shot to death by the archers saw the stone giants, which were more than ten meters tall, walking towards them at a speed that seemed slow but was actually not slow because of their long steps, they all turned around and ran away without hesitation.

Damn, the difference between watching from a distance and getting close is too big! We are naturally fearless when facing an enemy that can fight with us, but how can we fight when facing a wall that is coming towards us? !

The shocking effect of watching from a distance is naturally far different from the effect of observing from a close distance. In the eyes of the human soldiers rushing in front, the mountain giants are just thick stone walls wielding deadly weapons and walking towards them.

Look at that terrible giant stick, I am afraid that a light sweep will sweep us into a pool of meat paste like sweeping ants with a broom. Fighting is naturally not fearful, but no one is willing to step forward in a battle destined to die, not everyone is a death squad.

However, the human soldiers rushing in front wanted to flee back, but the human troops rushing up from the back found it difficult to turn around for a while. Although everyone saw the terrifying mountain giants and deeply felt the horror of these stone giants, it is not so easy to adjust a team of hundreds of thousands of people.

More importantly, there is no leader who can speak in this army of hundreds of thousands of people! Even some officers with slightly higher status were eliminated in Tyrande's previous sniping. The current situation is that orders are often not unified, let alone conveyed and executed.

A small officer who originally commanded only a few hundred people may now gather thousands of soldiers. It is of course extremely difficult to issue orders, not to mention that some soldiers who were not originally under their jurisdiction simply do not listen to orders.

At this time, the lightning shooters who advanced to snipers among the night elf archers added fuel to the fire.

The wind shooters are developing towards group battles. They can be imagined as machine guns; while the lightning shooters are similar to snipers. Although not as powerful as Tyrande's Moon Goddess Arrow, even the powerful upper-level officers are named one by one; but it is more than enough to deal with some weak lower-level officers.

Under the purposeful sniping of these lightning shooters, the command system of the human army became more chaotic. Looking at the hundreds of thousands of human soldiers rushing in several different directions in a mess, Yu Fei sighed.

Tyrande's decapitation tactics were too successful. When the human army faced an army like the night elves that was strong in individual strength but insufficient in number, it had to rely on large numbers and strict formations to win.

But Tyrande first had Maiev assassinate Marshal Cole, and then took advantage of the riot caused by the ancient guardians and mountain giants throwing boulders to find out the top commanders of other human armies and name them one by one. Not only did it scare away nearly half of the human army and reduce the pressure on the night elves, but it also made it impossible for these human soldiers who tried to fight to the death to receive effective command.

Originally, if the large number of archers and accompanying mages in the human army were gathered, it would still be possible to cause considerable damage to the night elves, but without a commander, who could gather all the archer troops? Who could command those proud mages?

It seems that even the elven dragons can't be used this time, and those mages have played no role at all. This is also good, it can leave a trump card for the night elves and give the human mage group a surprise in the future.

The mountain giants took big steps and quickly rushed into the ranks of human soldiers who turned and fled. Ignoring those human soldiers who turned and fought again when they saw that there was no hope of escape, the mountain giants either stepped on them or bent down and swept the ground with thick earth sticks, and started killing easily.

As for the sporadic attacks of those soldiers and some archers and mages in the distance, they could not cause effective damage under the mountain giants' resistant skin and high armor.

It was really a waste of talent to use mountain giants to fight these short human soldiers. Just the movement of 800 mountain giants before shocked countless weak soldiers, not to mention the trampling of big feet and rolling crushing of giant sticks.

After seeing that the mountain giants had performed the task of blocking the advancing human troops very well, the monsters transformed by the claw druids behind the mountain giants leisurely released magic one by one behind the mountain giants.
