Chapter 2562 - 2562 The monster is here! 1!
2562 The monster is here! 1!
It didn’t take long for a restless sound to come from the dense forest ahead.
“Brothers, the monster is here!”
There was no need for a special reminder. The believers already knew that the monsters were coming. On the top battle platform, the cannons had already let out a roar.
The Heaven’s Wall city’s terrain was quite high. A few specially-made rune cannons could send the cannonballs far away.
Cannonballs whizzed out one after another, causing people to cover their ears subconsciously. They had to wait for a while before they could hear the loud sounds coming from the forest in the distance.
These specialized weapons could bombard monsters from a distance, but they needed to be guided when attacking, otherwise it would just be a waste of ammunition.
The runic airship was in charge of guiding the monsters. It was hanging high in the air, keeping pace with the tide of monsters.
Through this method, the believers could intuitively understand the location of the monsters and be ready to attack and fight in time.
The speed of the monsters was very fast. Although the rune cannons bombarded and intercepted them, the damage done to the monsters was not obvious.
At the end of the day, it was still because the firepower density was not high enough. If ten thousand cannons fired at the same time, the entire forest could be overturned.
Nothing could be forced. To be able to reach this stage was already a very difficult thing.
If it wasn’t for Tang Zhen controlling the Heaven’s Wall city and the original city Lord ruling it, it would have been in chaos.
The other party’s experience, ability, and understanding of this disaster were far from being comparable to Tang Zhen’s.
The continuous sounds of cannons made the residents of the Heaven’s Wall city more and more nervous. They silently looked ahead, waiting for the order to attack.
Just as everyone was staring at the sky, a few fireballs suddenly popped out of the forest and went straight for the runic airship.
The fireballs were fast and rapid. The runic airship could not Dodge in time and was hit in the vital parts by the fireballs.
The damaged runic airship could not fly steadily. It tried to return with black smoke trailing behind it, but it fell from the sky after flying for a short while.
When the residents of the Heaven’s Wall city saw this, they cried out in surprise one by one, their faces full of regret and worry.
Everyone knew what would happen if they fell from a high altitude, and the possibility of survival for the patrol members was very low.
Even if they were lucky enough to escape, they would still have to face the monsters that were following closely. It was definitely a miracle to be able to return alive.
This was a good thing done by the enemy cultivators. They attacked at the critical moment and directly destroyed a runic airship.
Tang Zhen expressionlessly looked at the thick smoke floating up from the forest. He turned his head and gave the order. The cannons locked onto the area where the fireball had risen.
At the same time, they switched to artillery shells with strong burning effects to set the forest in that area on fire to kill the enemies and stop the monsters.
At this moment, Tang Zhen had already made up his mind. As long as the enemy dared to appear in front of him, he would definitely use all his firepower to welcome them.
Compared to the monsters, the enemies hiding in the forest were actually more dangerous and annoying.
If he had a choice, Tang Zhen would prioritize killing them, even if he had to pay a certain price.
As the cannons fired, clouds of thick smoke began to rise from the forest in the distance, and the flames spread in all directions.
The forest’s existence had more advantages than disadvantages, but Tang Zhen would rather destroy it than provide convenience to the enemy.
In fact, Tang Zhen was very clear that this kind of revengeful attack was useless. After the enemy destroyed the runic airship, they must have quickly moved away.
The main purpose of firing the cannons was to let the residents of the Heaven’s Wall city see that someone would remember their sacrifices and sacrifices.
At this moment, Tang Zhen could already faintly hear the roar of the monster. He could even smell a faint fishy stench.
Five minutes, ten minutes later, the mayfly monster finally approached the Heaven’s Wall city.
In the forest by the river, countless black shadows suddenly appeared. They were separated by the flower-filled Tiangang Lake, and they kept howling excitedly.
These monsters were wearing tattered clothes and holding all kinds of weapons in their hands. Because of the invasion of the demonic Qi, they had long been unrecognizable.
After becoming a monster, their own kind was included in their diet. Although their wisdom was still there, it had long been distorted.
Greedily sniffing the smell of food coming from the Heaven’s Wall city, the monsters could no longer suppress the desire in their hearts and roared as they rushed forward.
Countless monsters swarmed onto the long bridge, making it so that not even a drop of water could trickle through. Some monsters even rushed into the lake, trying to get close to the Heaven’s Wall city by swimming.
The advantage of the Heaven’s Wall city was revealed. Unless the monsters had wings, they could not easily rely on it.
There was no need for Tang Zhen’s command. The cannons had already locked onto the long bridge and the lakeside forest, constantly letting out rumbling sounds.
The solid cannonballs landed on the bridge as if they had hit mud. A group of monsters was smashed into meat paste, but they were quickly replaced by new monsters.
There were a lot of cannonballs, but there were even more monsters. They were extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, they had already covered a distance of four to five hundred meters.
Facing the broken bridge, the monsters jumped up one after another. Some fell into the lake halfway, while some successfully jumped onto the other bridge.
This scene of jumping and running made people’s scalps numb and a strong sense of tension rose in their hearts.
Facing the swarm of monsters, the residents of the Heaven’s Wall city had no time to think about anything else. They just kept firing, trying to stop the monsters as much as possible.
Due to time constraints, the Heaven’s Wall city had only produced a little more than 100 cannons. Facing the flood of monsters, they were still somewhat lacking.
When the monster finally reached the firing range of the guns, a sound like popping beans appeared, making the rumbling sounds of the cannons no longer monotonous.
The Gunners, who had been waiting for a long time, gritted their teeth and pulled the triggers. They wished they could replace the bullets and penetrate the monster’s body.
There were about 2000 guns produced by the overtime. Although the firing speed and accuracy were average, it was more than enough to seal the bridge.
The dense barrage of bullets landed on the bridge, knocking the monsters to the ground. Unfortunately, they could not kill them in one hit.
Whether it was defense or vitality, these monsters were far superior to ordinary people. Unless a shot hit a vital point, there was no way to kill them.
However, after being injured, the monster’s movement would definitely be affected, and its movement speed would be greatly reduced.
In addition to the cannons and firearms, crossbows, javelins, and other weapons such as stones were falling like rain.
Many of the monsters had their heads broken and bleeding. They looked like hedgehogs with arrows sticking out of them, and they kept roaring in anger.
A weapon like a bow and arrow had limited damage against targets wearing armor. Some monsters were still alive even after being shot dozens of times.
Unknowingly, the monsters were getting closer and closer to the Heaven’s Wall city. When looking down from above, they could see the monsters everywhere.
They launched their attacks fearlessly, and the residents of the Heaven’s Wall city desperately tried to stop them. Perhaps it was because of the stimulation of smoke and blood.
Seeing that the monster only needed to cross one more broken bridge to reach the bottom of the Heaven’s Wall city, Tang Zhen ordered again to spray a substance similar to kerosene at the broken bridge.
This oil was specially collected and mixed. Once it touched the body, it would be as difficult to remove as glue.
Groups of monsters were huddled together, their faces drenched in fuel. As a torch fell, a blazing flame immediately soared into the sky.
The monster was burning so badly that it was wailing like a ghost and howling like a Wolf. The nauseating smell of burning flesh made the people of the Heaven’s Wall city vomit again and again.
