Chapter 455 Offensive (2.8k)

The elites in the second line can take it easy, and the lords in the first line have to take responsibility for themselves.

The island alliance provides them with benefits, and now is the time for them to sacrifice themselves for these benefits... They will not die in reality, but no one wants to die once.

The loss of a large amount of resources is enough to make the lords in the first line feel heartbroken for a while.

It is no longer a small fight with insects in the sky island, nor is it a battle to force other lords to retreat with the majority. This is actually their first head-on battle.

As the flesh turbine approaches, they can see more of the rotten bodies of these alienated combat organisms intertwined with flesh and blood, and their internal structures rotating under the drive of steam engines.

"Crossbowman! Archer! Free shooting!"

At a distance of 300 meters, entering the throwing range of bows and crossbows, sacrificing the accuracy of long-range firepower coverage is just to test the defense methods of these incoming enemies.

Whether it is a crossbow or a bow.

It is only effective against those monster infantry who have no armor and have not evolved a thick skin.

Crossbows and longbows that humans can hold, if they are to fight against structures made of wood, stone or even steel...

This is not good.

Or it is completely impossible.

It is as absurd as using a rifle to fight an enemy tank. The thick armor and extremely hard main structure will directly be immune to the kinetic damage caused by small-caliber weapons-only special weapons such as magic rifles can cause weak damage, which is slightly better than no weak damage.

The flesh turbine did not stop for a moment because of the rain of arrows, and they continued to stride forward.

The iron arrows that fell into its flesh and blood were swallowed and digested as the flesh and blood squirmed, turning the metal part of the iron arrow into its own steel barrier, and then expelling the indigestible wooden rods.

Some arrows that were very lucky to fall into the gap were directly crushed and broken by the rotating gears and hydraulic rods. Just this little bit of metal could not hinder the operation of the machine.

The rain of arrows attack is ineffective.

Distance, 200 meters.

This is the maximum range of the structure's projectiles. At this distance, they cannot guarantee accuracy.

But you can make sure that the projectiles in your hands reach the enemy's front.

For example, the simplest ones are rocks and slings... The combat effect is good and the cost is extremely low.

The ogres, barbarians and trolls grabbed the projectiles hanging on their bodies, roared and threw all kinds of flying projectiles in their hands at the approaching scarlet front.

Even the bone throwers under the only undead lord grabbed the small skeletons beside him and rolled them into disposable bone bombs and threw them. The bone throwers never lacked ammunition, and they were surrounded by their own ammunition.

The vanguard line composed of 400 monster infantry with long-range attack capabilities launched their first wave of attacks, and those monster infantry without long-range attack capabilities patrolled on the side.

"It works!"

A cheer rang out from their ranks.

The spinning slings knocked down several flesh turbines when they landed, and the rocks even broke the bodies and trunks of some flesh turbines.

The people on the second line breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the stones and slings thrown by the monster infantry could kill these constructs instead of being resisted by them.

It seems that they really worried too much.

Li Yan, who was floating in the air, was observing these flesh turbines while sneaking close to Ji Lin's fleet, and couldn't help but sweat for Ji Lin.

The launchers at the far end still did not make any moves. They silently observed the combat effectiveness of the experimental troops they launched.

If the dangerous technology of a world is no different from ordinary constructs... it would not be so simply called dangerous technology.

Only when the enemy activates these flesh turbines... the battle really begins.

The flesh turbines that were hit supported their bodies, and the broken parts were temporarily healed by flesh and blood, and they stood up again from the ground.

They have no ability to feel pain, but they are just reassembled after the body is broken, and they are not creatures in the conventional sense.

Then, the rotation and hoarse roar merged into a long cry.

'Steam Engine-Overload'

Stride forward, waving the spear.

At a speed that no one had time to react, the steam machine soldiers, who had become blood and flesh turbines, entered a charging posture the moment they were hit.

The second wave of attacks that followed did not hit the violent and out-of-control army group that entered a high-speed moving state.

Two hundred meters, even if the terrain is rugged, is only a distance that can be crossed in ten seconds.

They crashed into the defensive line formed by the monster infantry vanguards, like a conical spike, and the four hundred front-line troops began to lose personnel at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Piercing,

The steam lance spewed out scarlet smoke, piercing the body of the creature under pressure, and the spreading electric current completely paralyzed the nerve organs in the creature.

Then repeat the process.

Whether it is a humanoid monster infantry, a beast-shaped monster cavalry, or a crustacean monster insect.

Nothing can withstand the steam lance, a weapon originally created to fight against steel creatures of the same level in close combat. It is designed for only one purpose...

That is to kill things like yourself in close combat with one blow.

Tear apart,

The steel hydraulic arm on the left arm pressed on the enemy's head, and the kinetic energy brought the ogre to the ground, exerting the mechanical weight to bring it down.

The multi-functional mechanical arm is endowed with higher flexibility by flesh and blood, allowing it to raise its mechanical arm to block the enemy's war hammer when the spear is swung out.

Steam Marines do not have the concept of left-handedness or right-handedness. In other words, they are bi-handed. Enhanced by their flesh and blood core, they have unimaginable movement speeds.

eating,

Flesh turbines have no sound-producing organs. All their sounds come from the madly rotating onboard steam-powered machinery, which is also their erosion site.

The flesh and blood is placed in the chest cavity, and then transformed into that part of one's own body.

Rather than a battle, it is more like an execution heading towards a predetermined death. The outcome is already determined... They are the performers of the process.

The lords and their troops ran toward an ever-moving meat grinder, replenishing it with energy.

When the white bone structure walked in front of them.

Fleshless structures have many advantages over flesh-based monster infantry. They do not suffer or bleed, and their bodies are made of unusually hard materials.

So, welcome it...

It is no longer a puncture, but an almost perfect oblique cut, driven hard by the hydraulic drive and connected to the flesh and blood, with the edge of the spear slamming down hard.

The white bone construct was then cut in half from shoulder to span.

In other words, it was smashed in half by the edge in one direction.

The system recovered the soul core of the white bone structure to prevent its most expensive part from being extinguished, and the remaining white bones fell to the ground as if they had lost their backbone.

The flesh and blood turbine grabbed the bones of the white bone structure that fell to the ground and installed them on its own body. These remnants of the white bone structure were controlled by flesh and blood on its surface to move to form a temporary armor shield wall.

Blunt weapons are supposed to hurt them, and rightly so.

However, the impact damage caused by blunt weapons has been slowed down by the outer layer of additional armor. The intertwined flesh and blood formed a strong enough buffer, allowing the flesh and blood turbine to stagger and fatally fight back against the intruder in the next moment.

It can withstand multiple hits and recover, something these monster infantry don't have.

The attacker only has one chance, but as long as it survives, it has countless chances.

Flesh and blood is the best fuel for their actions.

The scarlet poisonous mist is spreading in front of the front as they fight. These poisonous mists containing a large amount of heavy metals will cause irreversible damage to life.

They were born in a world polluted by poisonous fog and heavy metals.

"What a hell..."

The lords took a step back, but they did not dare to order the troops to retreat. Retreating would easily lead to a retreat.

You can die in battle, but you can't retreat.

Each kill and feed acts as a Willpower attack on nearby units, questioning their will with blood and death, weakening the morale of any unit that sees it happen.

Zhang Ao, the ally of the Round Island Alliance, nodded and ordered the artillery that was already in place on the second line of defense to enter attack mode.

If the firing was delayed, there might really be problems with the front line.

"Well, it's time...let the batteries fire."

Streams of light were fired from behind the line. They were early magic cannons driven by spellcasters. They were different from the arcane focusers mastered by Ji Lin...their weapons moved in the direction of launching ionic spheres and fireballs.

There are also projectiles launched by trebuchets with built-in explosive spells, heavy ballistae designed to fight against constructs, and explosive rock blocks thrown by rock elements.

The artillery pushed out from the camp entered its firing position.

This is not the first time that the Round Island Alliance has dealt with structural units. Their army also has heavy weapons that are sufficient to fight against structural units.

Cover the enemy's special structure, together with your own monster infantry, under this wave of mixed artillery strikes.

The timely fire support from the second line relieved the frontline lords.
