Chapter 110: Flames Sweeping the Slope
'Om! '
The moment Shen Mu's thoughts communicated with the system, the rules from Mount and Blade instantly surged out from between his brows.
Then it soared into the sky and disappeared into an area about twenty to thirty meters above the sky.
"Huh? What is that?" At this time, the halfling elder Pero, and Liu Na, who was still stretching out her hands and releasing emerald green light to heal the archer's arm, subconsciously raised their heads and looked at the sky.
In the corner of my eye just now, or in other words, a special perception from the spiritual creatures, or the humans of Blue Star.
They both noticed that the white light rising from the sky had a special smell!
But the two of them didn't understand what the special method was.
I even felt like I might have seen it wrong.
But the two of them were also very clear that they were not mistaken at all, and there was indeed white light flying out from Shen Mu's body.
Liu Na was also very sure that the white light was a special power that originated from the rules level!
This is not the first time I have seen this kind of white light.
"..."
The two looked at each other and saw surprise and a certain admiration in each other's eyes.
Especially the halfling elder Pero, who suddenly looked up at the tiny, shrieking black shadow that appeared from the sky, and the surprise in his eyes became more and more intense.
'boom! ’
But watching the shrieking black shadow fall to the ground with a bang, it just hit the outside of the city wall, among the group of pig-headed men who were originally charging towards this side, and directly hit two pig-headed men into rotten meat. The basketball-sized stone ball rolled more than ten meters and crushed the calves of four or five pig-headed men before it stopped.
The halfling elder Pero couldn't help swallowing his saliva. Looking at the sky which seemed to be no different, the surprise in his eyes turned into horror.
"The power of rules!"
It muttered, "Could it be that this Lord Shen Mu... obtained... the power bestowed by those beings?!"
No one can imagine that in today's Blue Star world, in addition to the original Blue Star rules.
Outside the invading rules of the undead and the rules of the spirit world.
There is actually another rule.
Moreover, this kind of rule was condensed because of its own countless worlds, and it also integrated a part of the Blue Star rules and a part of the spiritual world rules. In the end, a new rule was born out of these rules, but it is slightly superior to these rules in quality!
Mount and Blade rules from the Mount and Blade system!
The halfling elder Pero couldn't imagine it.
Liu Na couldn't imagine it either.
Because this has already exceeded the limits of what the two could imagine!
Even now, when they saw the white light bursting out from between Shen Mu's brows, the first thing they imagined was that Shen Mu had obtained some powerful mark of the spiritual world and inherited some powerful existence.
And look at this white light, as well as Shen Mu's usual politeness and respect in his dealings with others.
There is no excessive coercion or evil behavior.
The half-orc elder Pero even imagined the white light possessed by Shen Mu to be associated with the beliefs in the God of Light that were once extremely popular among the human race!
Especially since Shen Mu also has the ability to cast natural spells, Pero's idea was further deepened.
After all, some gods in the light pantheon... do maintain extremely good, or even friendly, relations at the alliance level with the natural pantheon and natural consciousness!
'boom! ’
Just as the half-orc elder Pero was guessing, Shen Mu was looking at the stone balls that suddenly appeared from the sky and then fell down with a scream.
His face was calm.
But in Shen Mu's eyes, looking at the effect of the stone ball, he still expressed satisfaction.
Stone balls, about the size of basketballs, flew across the sky in an arc, just passing over the city wall and the baffle above, and hit the opposite side of the wall.
Not only did it smash the pig-headed man to death who did not try to escape under the city wall.
As the stone ball bounces and rolls.
Those pig-headed men who had no time to dodge and had their calves or feet crushed by the heavy stone ball and its terrifying inertia would instantly have their calves broken and become disabled!
The stone balls thrown by the heavy catapults weigh dozens of kilograms each.
Plus the inertia and the force of falling.
Even thick stone walls can be smashed to pieces one by one, and even towering stone towers can collapse under repeated blows.
Not to mention the fragile bodies of the pig-headed men, which are also made of flesh and blood.
As long as you are hit by the stone ball.
That's what happens when a broken bone is broken!
What's more, the stone balls suddenly appear from the sky, basically one appears every five or six minutes.
This means that the heavy catapult can launch an attack every five or six minutes.
The frequency is not high.
But it’s not low either.
For those pig-headed people who were still nervously attacking the city wall and trying to rush to the top of the wall, it was a devastating blow again and again!
The killing effect caused is even greater than that of a crossbow which needs to be aimed in a straight line to kill multiple people!
The only pity is that the catapult can only hit the enemy in an arc trajectory forward.
There was no way to directly smash the ramp formed by countless pieces of furniture and the corpses of pig-headed men.
Shen Mu didn't care about this.
On the contrary, seeing those pig-headed people who, although not many in number, were obviously more elite and had already sent out the anthropomorphic humans from Blue Star, starting to rush up and fight desperately, he knew that these guys from the Diesel Company had reached the final stage.
They were killed by the crossbows, catapults, archers and crossbowmen owned by Shen Mu, and even the throwing infantry of the Lake Rat Gang members.
It has only been less than three hours since the battle began.
It would take no more than 40 minutes for the diesel company headquarters' troops, composed of these pig-headed men, to launch a general attack.
time is too short.
But in such a short period of time, so many troops were lost.
Both the temporary convoy and the main force composed of pig-headed people suffered heavy casualties.
The number of casualties by now has made those who led the troops here, who had planned in their hearts to easily defeat Shen Mu, the new human lord, and then seize the mark of the spiritual world and return to the Orc tribe to receive the commendation, Commander-in-Chief Fu Jian and other middle-level commanders, become hysterical and a little overwhelmed!
If they go back now, the cruel general manager will definitely not let them go.
so.
Now I can only grit my teeth and fight hard!
After all, the sunk costs in the early stages are too high. If we cannot win and recover all the sunk costs, then the final outcome would be worse than dying on the battlefield!
Thinking of this, Fu Jian, who had never seen such a strong city defending ability, was now extremely angry because of fear.
He began to lead more elite pig-headed men and personally went into the battlefield, planning to attack the city!
"Zhang Caidong!" Fu Jian was still yelling, "Your people! Follow me too! Charge together!"
"Understand...understood!" Zhang Caidong was next to Fu Jian at this time. Looking at the tragic battlefield on the city wall and the corpses everywhere, he could only swallow his saliva and agreed reluctantly.
He drew out the scimitar from his waist and looked at the regular employees of the diesel company around him. They all took out the fragments of the spirit world, swallowed them directly, and began to transform themselves into more powerful spirit world creatures.
Zhang Caidong's heart was shaken.
"What's going on with Diesel Company? Why does it seem that compared to the new human lord in front of us... it seems to be in decline?"
Zhang Caidong was even more worried in his heart.
Of course he could see now that Fu Jian was ready to fight to the death. The Diesel Company's troops couldn't even capture a wall of the human territory.
Looking at the towering castle area next to the city wall, it is obviously more defensive.
If trying hard this time doesn't work.
Then the situation on the battlefield would be doomed to failure.
"Everyone, prepare your innate spells." Fu Jian slowly spoke through gritted teeth, as if he was too angry to care about anything else: "Group Bloodlust! Group Stoneskin! And the warrior skills that you have inherited! Get them all ready!"
As the commander, Fu Jian was looking at the elite Blue Star human who had been following him for a long time.
His tone was extremely solemn: "Don't be shy now. If we fail to conquer this territory, I don't need to say much about our fate. You can guess it!"
"Understood." The humans on Blue Star all nodded slowly with gloomy faces.
They all do understand.
Then a faint light appeared on his body.
As the fragments of the spiritual world were swallowed into the stomach, the power of the spiritual world rules contained in them began to spread.
The resonance at the soul level of the spiritual creatures that had already been completed had a more intense effect on their bodies, causing these humans on the Blue Star to begin to more clearly resemble pig-headed people.
He is taller, fatter, and more muscular, and his strength is also greater, more sufficient, and more terrifying!
"Zhang Caidong! Make the captains and members of your temporary convoy eat the fragments of the spiritual world mark."
Fu Jian turned his head and coldly looked at the captains of the temporary convoys who had sad expressions on their faces because of the heavy losses, and roared: "As long as you can accompany me and conquer this territory, then when I return, I will apply for the fragments of the spiritual world mark to give to you. Each person will get at least 50 fragments! Consider it my gift to you! What do you think!?"
"Hiss, hiss, hiss!" As soon as Fu Jian finished speaking, the captains of these temporary convoys looked at him in disbelief.
50 Mark Fragments.
It’s just the beginning! ?
This means that if they have made contributions, they will get more rewards than 50 Mark Fragments? !
“Is this true!?” Some captains of the temporary convoys and the members of the temporary convoys who had good relations with them behind them were asking.
"Of course." Fu Jian spoke in a low voice, his eyes full of hysteria: "But, we have to be able to attack and capture this territory!"
"..." The captains and members of these temporary teams were shocked and excited when they heard Fu Jian's affirmative answer. They looked at each other and saw a plan emerging in everyone's eyes -
"rush!"
This reward is too generous.
The members of the temporary team, who were used to living a hard life, were now willing to follow Fu Jian and fight for this reward!
Even Zhang Caidong's heart skipped a beat when he heard about the reward of 50 mark fragments.
He also clenched his fists, drew out his scimitar, gritted his teeth and nodded, "Then listen to Commander Fu Jian! Let's charge forward! Follow Commander Fu Jian! Occupy this territory!"
"Go, go, go!"
These humans on Blue Star suddenly shouted loudly.
They are all humans from Blue Star, have their own thinking ability, and know how to protect themselves and detect better opportunities on the battlefield.
Compared to those stupid spiritual creatures who only know how to be brutal, the advantage of humans on Blue Star is still their IQ.
"Kill, kill, kill!"
"Long Live the Lake Rat Family!"
So on the city wall, the Lake Rat Gang vandals gathered in front of the ramp faced even greater pressure!
Dozens of pig-headed men rushed up under the rain of arrows. Many of them were covered with thorns like hedgehogs. However, as long as they were not hit in the vital parts, they still howled in pain, waved their flails, and rushed forward angrily at the risk of their lives. They wanted to get to the city wall and have a final battle with the human soldiers.
So much so that on the city wall, the left arm of a Lake Rat Gang saboteur was already severely injured and fractured due to using a heavy round shield to block the swinging flail hammer. The arm fell limply and could only use his right hand to swing the serrated spear and grit his teeth while fighting the pig-headed man with great difficulty.
"The wounded, retreat! The others move forward! Hold on!" Bandak had already seen this scene by now, and also saw that the Pig-Headed Man who was rushing more rapidly on the ramp had begun to make it difficult for more Lake Rat Gang saboteurs to continue to resist.
The power brought by the Pig-Headed Man's fat body is indeed far greater than that of the strongest Lake Rat Gang saboteur.
Especially when it comes to swinging the flail, its power is even greater than that of an ordinary hard-bar hammer!
Just like a nunchaku, the chain can be used to give the fist-sized black hammer head extra speed and inertia, bringing a terrifying force that is almost equivalent to a heavy blow from a two-handed warhammer.
Of course, this difficult-to-operate feature is also compensated for by the pig-headed man's strong arms.
This leads to the melee stage once it enters.
These pig-headed people think they are much stronger than humans, which is an important reason!
In fact, it is true.
"Block!"
Some Lake Rat Gang vandals had already come to the damaged baffle with heavy round shields. Because the situation was urgent, they swung their serrated spears directly at the pig-headed man who had just turned over and had lost his balance.
The sharp spear blade with small thorns directly cut a huge gash on the pig-headed man's entire face.
The flowing blood made the pig-headed man's face even more terrifying.
This also caused the pig-headed man, whose body was pierced by dozens of feather arrows and crossbow arrows, to feel even more severe pain. He raised the flail in his hand and rushed towards the Lake Rat Gang vandals howling.
The force of the collision was so great that even the serrated spears that were stabbing at the city walls one by one could not withstand it.
This caused several Lake Rat Gang saboteurs in the front row to stagger backwards.
He could only passively raise the heavy round shield in his hand to resist the attack of the mad pig-headed man and barely stabilize the defense line under his feet.
"withstand!"
Several Lake Rat Gang saboteurs in the back picked up their serrated spears and chopped at the pig-headed man's head.
It was as if he was using a big knife to crack the pig-headed man's head open.
Several more Lake Rat Gang saboteurs loosened their grip on the serrated spears at close range, picked up the armor-piercing axes at their waists, and chopped at the pig-headed man's head fiercely. The sharp and heavy armor-piercing axes directly split the pig-headed man's skull open.
The brain burst apart.
This is the final solution to the problem of the pig-headed man who rushed up the city wall!
But just as they were dealing with this pig-headed man, more pig-headed men rushed up the ramp, climbed over the baffle that had been smashed for the most part, and came to the top of the city wall with excited grunts.
Among them are pig-headed people who are anthropomorphic to humans from the blue planet, with faint light all over their bodies.
Howling like a pig, he commanded the increasingly excited pig-headed followers around him to charge towards the city walls on both sides, trying to open up a position on the wall that would allow more pig-headed people to gain a foothold.
In just a short moment, more than twenty pig-headed men appeared on the section of the city wall nearly twenty or thirty meters north of the city gate, and began to rush towards the north and south walls.
In an instant, all the Lake Rat Gang saboteurs who were originally gathered on the city wall were forced to retreat to both sides.
"Lord Bandak, the city gate is about to be lost, we must evacuate!"
Right at the city gate, the senior thugs of the Lake Rat Gang who were operating the two light crossbows began to persuade Bandak next to him to leave.
Because while the winch was being used to string the light crossbow, the other two senior Lake Rat Gang fighters who were in charge of installing the lances and aiming and shooting had already pulled out the harpoons on their backs and were throwing them at the pig-headed men on the ramp and the city wall outside, and had also joined the battle.
Not to mention the ones in front, who were still confronting those pig-headed men. Relying on the city wall being only 3 meters wide, 2 people could defend against 1 pig-headed man.
However, they were still being forced to retreat because of the flail swung by the Pig-Headed Man, giving up more area on the city wall. The veteran thugs of the Lake Rat Gang were extremely anxious when they saw their defeat.
Not only did Bandak have to retreat, but the two light crossbows they were responsible for also had to leave!
"Well, retreat immediately." Bandak nodded, understanding what they meant, and calmly waved his hand, "Six more Swadian light infantry, come and help, and move all these light crossbows to the castle wall!"
"Understood!" Several Swadian light infantrymen who were originally guarding the gate and were responsible for delivering messages immediately responded. They stepped forward and started to move the two light crossbows together with the senior thugs of the Lake Rat Gang.
Several people worked together, then left from the stairs on the south side of the city wall, walked through the town area, made a big circle, and headed towards the city wall of the castle area, where they began to re-set up the firing position for the light crossbow.
However, when these two light crossbows left, the pressure on the entire city gate and ramp increased.
The pig-headed men who had lost their direct threat began to charge more fiercely.
All over the city wall, there were people who had been smashed down because they could not dodge in time. They were gasping for breath, but soon they were silent, with their pupils dilated. They were obviously the Lake Rat Gang saboteurs who had died in the battle. Casualties began to occur, and the number of casualties continued to increase.
"Upwards! Throw the harpoons!" Even under the city wall, the veteran thugs of the Lake Rat Gang who had been prepared long ago, saw this scene and began throwing their sharp harpoons at the city wall, killing the pig-headed men more accurately and destructively.
The walls were still falling.
On the city gate side, because there was an extra 1-meter protrusion, serrated spears could be used to assist in killing the pig-headed men from the side, and the direction in which more pig-headed men could be attacked could be withstood. At this time, the Lake Rat Gang saboteurs at the front were also forced to retreat.
These front-line Lake Rat Gang saboteurs also suffered casualties.
In the direction of the north and south walls, these fat and huge pig-headed men were in a weak position almost every time they faced close combat. They could not occupy the absolute dominant position as they did before when there was no close combat!
Even though the archers were still shooting, the whistling sounds of arrows and crossbow bolts tearing through the air continued to be heard.
There were still more and more pig-headed men, like hedgehogs, covered with feather arrows and crossbow bolts, rushing up the city wall waving flails and hammers. Relying on their strong vitality, they continued to howl and attack the Lake Rat Gang vandals, and the defense line was somewhat shaky.
“Sir!” Beside Bandak, a member of the Lake Rat Gang had already spoken up: “We can’t hold on any longer!”
This is hard to say.
But the fact that these unruly Lake Rat Gang saboteurs could say this also showed that they had really reached their limit!
"I know." Bandak's face was serious at this time. He was fighting side by side on the front line. From time to time, he would use his heavy crossbow, within a distance of 3 meters, directly aiming at the pig-headed man's face and pulling the trigger, allowing his heavy crossbow and steel crossbow arrows to deliver a fatal blow.
Of course, he knew that these Lake Rat Gang saboteurs were right in front of him, although they were also good at melee combat.
But fighting on the line on such a city wall was a bit too much.
"Swadian sergeants! Go up to the city wall from the stairs on both sides! Take over the Lake Rat Gang destroyers!" Bandak then came to the edge of the city wall, pointed at the Swadian sergeants who were already ready and frowned as they watched the fighting on the city wall, and called on them to start joining the battlefield.
"Understood!" The Swadian soldiers immediately gave a huge response without any hesitation. They picked up the spears in their hands, quickly divided into two rows, and climbed to the top of the city wall.
Faced with the difficult and defeated Lake Rat Gang saboteurs, the Swadian soldiers who were better at holding the line raised their 3-meter-long spears diagonally forward and lined up at the top of the city wall to form a denser spear phalanx!
In this small area, the Lake Rat Gang vandals were completely stunned.
"Bend over, get down! Crawl over here!"
These Swadian soldiers didn't care about the Lake Rat Gang saboteurs in front of them at all. They just shouted at them to dodge according to the instructions, then raised their spears and walked towards the pig-headed men.
At the same time, the spear phalanx moved forward directly and began to squeeze the space of the Lake Rat Gang saboteurs who were trapped in the middle.
"Get down! Let's go!" The Lake Rat Gang saboteurs no longer had their previous arrogance.
In just a short moment, they had lost more than a dozen brothers, and they were indeed unable to continue using round shields, serrated spears, and armor-piercing axes to fight against the pig-headed men who were better at melee combat, had greater strength, and had more tenacious vitality.
So they all lowered their heads, lay down, and crawled on their knees from the corners of the city wall and under the crotches of the Swadian soldiers, quickly climbing to a safe place.
I don't care about words like dignity and honor, nor do I care about face.
The Lake Rat Gang itself is a family of robbers, and they are all a group of villains.
Since when do these villains also want honor?
Survive now.
This is better than dying now and being unable to continue serving Lord Shen Mu!
In the Lake Rat Gang, there is no reputation for virtue just because one sacrifices oneself bravely and dies in a head-on fight with the enemy.
Instead, you will be laughed at for not knowing how to run away at this time, and then wait for the enemy to show his weak spot before attacking and killing the enemy cleverly. You are a complete idiot who has no brains or tactics and only knows how to act recklessly.
"Fortunately, these Lake Rat Gang saboteurs are smart enough." Shen Mu nodded slightly on the castle wall at this time.
Although these Lake Rat Gang saboteurs looked embarrassed, they were quite sympathetic to the fact that they completely disregarded their identities and just crawled away from the battlefield.
This is the top-level army of the Lake Rat Gang, and Shen Mu’s favorite.
It hurts every time one of them dies.
Just now, after such a long fierce battle on the city wall, there were only 50 Lake Rat Gang saboteurs, and Shen Mu saw thirteen or fourteen of them being killed.
This kind of loss made Shen Mu's heart bleed!
It was only when the Swadian soldiers went over and formed a complete spear formation on the city wall that the attack of the pig-headed men was stopped. The pig-headed men were temporarily trapped in a section of the city wall that was less than a hundred meters long, and they became unable to advance or retreat.
"I have an idea!" At this time, Manide pulled the trigger and used a crossbow to pierce a steel crossbow arrow into the shoulder of a pig-headed man.
Seeing the pig-headed man roaring angrily, he turned his head to the side and looked at the sniper crossbows that were still firing spears at the slope under the city wall. He then looked at Shen Mu and reported: "Now may be the best opportunity to directly attack those pig-headed men on the city wall!"
Now those pig-headed people were crowded on the city wall and in a straight line.
If you shoot the spear along this straight line.
So the result is...
It will definitely be huge!
Even Manid, who was not good at fighting, had this idea after seeing this scene.
"Of course, it is indeed a good opportunity." Shen Mu nodded. At this time, he also saw the pig-headed men on the city wall who were unable to move forward or backward, but a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
There was even more indifference in his eyes.
Not only did he use crossbows to bombard the pig-headed men on the city wall, but he also watched the more pig-headed men behind him, as well as the pig-headed men that were flashing with light, which were obviously simulated by humans from Blue Star. They all began to enter the ramp and wanted to get to the city wall. He was going to completely capture the city wall and get rid of those guys completely!
Moreover, Shen Mu also saw that behind him, many other humans from Blue Star had swallowed the fragments of the mark, and they were transformed into spiritual creatures with faint light all over their bodies, showing a hideous grin.
Finally, his eyes were fixed on the area that was already covered with a large number of pig-headed men's corpses, but there were still many exposed wooden structures, forming the piles of furniture that formed the ramp and leveled the trench!
"Come here." Shen Mu turned his head and looked at the few Swadian light infantrymen around him, and arranged in a deep voice: "Go to the warehouse to get gasoline, and then go to Bandak, and let him spread the gasoline on the ramp when the battle is the most intense."
"Understood!" The Swadian light infantry nodded and turned to convey the order.
Shen Mu reached out his hand to stop him again, and reminded him: "Remember, tell Bandak, when spreading gasoline, be careful not to be discovered by those Blue Star humans, otherwise my plan will fail. Then he doesn't need to light it, just wait for my order to light it!"
"Understood." The Swadian light infantry nodded firmly again, then turned and left.
Soon, barrels of gasoline were taken out of the warehouse and carried to the top of the city gate by seven or eight Swadian light infantrymen. They were still using a phalanx of spears to struggle against Bandak, the pig-headed men.
Then, under Bandak's arrangement, it was carefully thrown into the corner where the furniture was piled under the ramp.
He didn't choose to pour gasoline directly.
Instead, he looked at the pig-headed people around him, including the pig-headed people anthropomorphized by humans from Blue Star and other spiritual creatures, who did not look in this direction, and threw nearly 20 portable gasoline barrels onto the furniture.
He also found a brazier and lit a bonfire, then placed it behind an inconspicuous baffle, ready to use at any time!
Bandak didn't understand what gasoline was, but that didn't stop him from treating it as a souped-up version of kerosene.
The night before, when he lit the gasoline to make a fire, Bandak was deeply impressed by the fire that blazed up suddenly.
Therefore, I am quite accepting of this kind of water-like thing.
"That's it." Bandak nodded solemnly, and then ordered these Swadian light infantry to withdraw.
The fighting here was extremely fierce.
Only heavy infantrymen at the level of Swadian sergeants can barely withstand the attacks of those pig-headed people.
If it is Swadian light infantry, this ordinary third-level soldier.
I'm afraid it's at the moment of contact.
They will be forced to retreat continuously by the violent pig-headed men rushing towards them, and there will be more obvious casualties!
Now, in order to trap all those pig-headed men on this section of the city wall, Bandak thought that having these Swadian soldiers here would be enough!
"Lake Rat Gang Vandals! Now, I need you to throw javelins for support!"
At the same time, Bandak immediately turned around and pointed at the Lake Rat Gang saboteurs who were still gasping for breath and had recovered from the previous fierce battle, and asked them to use their hooked javelins to throw.
"Understood!" Without saying a word, the Lake Rat Gang saboteurs immediately pulled out their hooked javelins from behind.
Looking at the pig-headed man in front of them, who had been blocked by the Swadian soldiers with thick fan-shaped shields and spears, their ugly fat faces had ferocious looks in their eyes.
The scene of themselves using serrated spears and being pushed back step by step by these ugly pig-headed men was still vivid in their eyes.
The Lake Rat Gang Vandals are not a generous bunch.
Now, taking advantage of the fact that these pig-headed men were blocked here, they happened to have an angle at the top of the city gate, which gave them the opportunity to swing out their hooked javelins and snipe the enemy at close range.
'Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!'
These Lake Rat Gang saboteurs immediately sprang into action, using longer and sharper hooked javelins to begin sniping the pig-headed men at close range.
The pig-headed men, who had no long-range means to counterattack and could only use their bodies to resist the javelins, let out screams of agony.
But they could only kill them one by one. At this moment, they were killed on the spot by the Lake Rat Gang vandals who took the opportunity to throw javelins at them!
Including the 100 veteran Lake Rat Gang thugs just below the city wall, throwing harpoons.
Let more pig-headed people make more tragic roars and pig howls.
"Group Stoneskin!"
But at this moment, among the nearly forty or fifty pig-headed men who had already crowded onto the city wall, a pig-headed man who was an anthropomorphic human from Blue Star and whose body was glowing with light let out an angry roar.
Then a gray-black light began to surge in all directions and spread directly to most of the pig-headed people.
Then you can see a gray-black light like a scab appearing on the bodies of these pig-headed men.
Then, while the movements of these pig-headed people forward slowed down, the gun tip that was stabbing towards them fiercely and had caused huge damage to them actually made a "ding-dang-dang" metal collision sound the moment it touched their skin.
To be precise, it is the sound made when metal collides with hard stone!
It was as if the bodies of these pig-headed men turned into stone directly!
“Huff! Huff! Ang——!!!”
The pig-headed men in front who were covered by the stone skin technique made huge pig howls. At this time, because of the heavy weight on their bodies and the added defense of the stone skin technique, they swung the flails in their hands and swept directly towards the sharp spears in front.
He rushed forward regardless of anything, using the shield on his left arm to protect his head, and directly used his body to block those spears, forcing those Swadian soldiers to retreat continuously!
It was as if they were living stones that began to weigh down the spear phalanxes set up by the Swadian soldiers.
This forced the Swadian soldiers to retreat.
There's no way to do much damage to these pig-headed people!
Because even if there were feather arrows and crossbow bolts shot from a distance, they would hit these pig-headed men and make clanging sounds.
Even the harpoons thrown by the senior thugs of the Lake Rat Gang below could only leave some white marks on the pig heads.
Even these Swadian soldiers, when they thrust their spears out quickly, only caused pain in their knuckles.
As for the gun tip that was stabbed out, it directly produced a series of sparks and had no killing effect at all!
Or.
Attacking pieces of stone one by one will not have any effect!
"Boom!" "Boom!"
"Boom!" "Boom!"
But all this was done except for the two siege crossbows on the square tower and the two light crossbows that were re-erected at the top of the castle area, which were bombarding the 2-meter-wide city wall!
That’s right, the spears fired from Shen Mu’s four crossbows could still cause fatal damage to these pig-headed men who were protected by the stoneskin technique!
‘Crack! ’
'boom! '
Even if it was stone, under the piercing of the hard iron spear head, the defense threshold was broken, and the stone skin exploded and shattered.
The flesh and blood of the real pig-headed man underneath was revealed!
It went straight through the bodies of the two pig-headed men, nailing them directly to the city wall. They were unable to move, so they were blocked in front of the city wall, isolating the Swadian soldiers from the pig-headed men behind them!
And it wasn't just this group of pig-headed men being strung up with candied haws, because there were four spears fired from four crossbows.
Except for one, which was directly blocked by the baffle because of the wrong angle.
The remaining three bolts directly penetrated the six pig-headed men on the city wall.
Divide them into 3 groups of candied haws!
The pig-headed people behind who wanted to rush forward were blocked by the city wall.
He suddenly became so impatient that he made a grunting sound. He had no choice but to be ruthless and push his companions who were not dead yet under the city wall next to him. With a loud bang, he was able to continue rushing forward.
There's no way around it.
Because the duration of Stoneskin is only 3 minutes.
Especially for the pig-headed people who are anthropomorphic to humans from Blue Star, who are very familiar with the duration of this spell.
If they don't charge forward and allow themselves to defeat and crush those human spearmen within the duration, they themselves will be in real danger after the effect of Stoneskin wears off!
So now, they had no time to hesitate here any longer, so they all started rushing towards both sides of the city wall like crazy.
The Swadian soldiers began to retreat step by step.
That is to say, relying on the more than 3-meter-long spear to block, he could avoid the whirring flail hammer from hitting him.
But even so, the spears in the hands of these Swadian soldiers, even though the front half was wrapped in iron sheets, were obviously bent a lot, obviously being bent and broken by the swinging flail!
These Swadian soldiers were forced to retreat, leaving more of the city wall exposed.
Even at the top of the city gate, Bandak was forced to lead the Swadian soldiers and the Lake Rat Gang vandals to retreat towards the stairs, as if they could not withstand the surging impact and had no way to resist it anymore. They wanted to evacuate the area of the city wall!
"Kill! Kill! Kill! The city wall is about to be breached!"
"Charge! We have captured the city wall! Those humans are no match for us!"
"We're going to win! We're going to win!"
The pig-headed people who were transformed from humans from Blue Star were cheering at this time. Relying on the fact that the Stoneskin Technique was still working, they continued to charge forward regardless of anything, hoping to capture more city walls.
Even the captains and members of the temporary convoys at the back had swallowed the fragments of the spirit world, and the various simulated spirit world creatures also came to the city wall at this time.
It can be said that most of the elite and elite personnel of Diesel Company have already arrived at the city wall.
Came to Dehrim.
But no one noticed that among the scattered buildings in the town, several lightly armed Swadian light infantry ran to the southern section of the east wall where Bandak was still struggling to hold on.
Said something to him.
Then the city defense expert who was good at using crossbows, the master of heavy crossbows, immediately had an idea. He picked up a steel crossbow arrow wrapped with cloth strips and went to the brazier prepared in advance to light it.
"Swoosh!" He then pulled the trigger and shot the steel crossbow arrow toward the slope more than 20 meters away!
Relying on Bandak's decades of shooting sense, he accurately hit a gasoline barrel that he had thrown down himself to ensure the exact position and was stuck in the middle of the wooden furniture!
'boom! ’
Just when the humans from Blue Star, the pig-headed people, and the spiritual creatures that rushed up were still confused as to why a rocket appeared.
Just outside the city wall behind him, there were wooden furniture everywhere, and corpses of pig-headed men wearing leather armor and cloth robes were everywhere. In the middle of the piled-up ramp, a huge flame was rising!
It also ignited the twenty or so gasoline barrels around it, bringing with it a blazing flame storm.
In an instant, it swept across the entire slope!
And swept...
The way out for these diesel company elites!
