Chapter 14 The Drums of War

The beast horde advanced to tens of meters below the city wall.

"The bow and arrow are ready."

"put."

"Rifleman free fire."

The rain of arrows fell into the beast tide, and the arrows with various elemental energies pierced through the thick armor and fur of the mutant beast, causing an explosion, or directly piercing through, or causing highly poisonous, or spreading thunder and lightning. The beast died on the spot, and the stronger and larger mutant beast continued to move forward despite the rain of arrows.

Hundreds of riflemen showed their power together. Under the hail of bullets, the mutated beasts kept falling down and were killed instantly when the bullets hit their heads. However, most of the mutated beasts still marched forward against the bullets with their strong bodies.

The intertwined firepower lines of the old and new long-range weapons are constantly harvesting the lives of the mutant beasts, but there are still many mutant beasts rushing out, only a dozen meters away from the city wall.

In terms of the number of kills, rifles are more than bows and arrows, but this is just the appearance. If you look carefully, you will see that most of the rifles kill are smaller and weaker mutant creatures. With the help of skills and skills, many mutant beasts with strong strength would all be injured on the spot even if they didn't drink their hatred.

"One silver, another silver coin, ah, my heart hurts, but luckily I didn't spend the money myself."

A rifleman standing next to Chen Fang grumbled every time he fired a shot, with a distressed expression on his face.

Chen Fang looked at him speechlessly. Before the battle started, Chen Fang chatted with him and expressed his envy for the weapon in his hand. In the original world, Chen Fang had never touched a gun, so he was always envious, but in After communicating with this garrison soldier, Chen Fang couldn't envy him at all.

"Don't think this kind of firearm is cool. To be honest, it's just us ordinary people who use it. Most awakened people have never looked at this kind of weapon."

"Why?"

"I can't afford expensive guns and bullets, so the federal army will equip them."

"Firearms mainly rely on bullets, and the bullets are ground by the core of monsters. Ten bullets cost one silver coin. You can't afford it. The most important thing is that ordinary firearms cannot use skills, even firearms that can use skills. It’s just going straight, it’s too easy for powerful adventurers to hide, and for a huge mutant beast, even if it’s fed with ten catties of ammunition, it may not necessarily die.”

"But the Dawes family is very famous for their guns on TV. The guns in their hands are very powerful. Not only can they use various skills, but they are also extremely powerful. It was not reported that their family killed a giant beast alone."

If it wasn't for being poor, Chen Fang really wanted to be a shooter.

"That's a special case. Their family has always been talented in firearms and can develop all kinds of special firearms. Other awakened people don't even think about it. Even if they are talented, if they don't join the army or a family with strong financial resources, how can they stand up to bullets? consumption."

"Brother, you are not an ordinary person, how can ordinary people have such insight."

"Before Su Yuan's heart exploded, I was a poisonous bow, and I knew a little about long-range weapons."

"How careless you are to let Su Yuan's heart explode."

"My son shot it with a slingshot when I was advanced."

"Congratulations."

...

Although the long-range attack eliminated thousands of mutant beasts, they were all weak cannon fodder mutant beasts. The powerful mutant beasts had already stepped on their corpses and slowly approached the bottom of the city wall.

The city walls of the Newborn City were only constructed of ordinary rocks. Under the attack of the mutant beasts, stone chips kept falling, and the walls became bumpy, and some walls began to appear cracks.

The mutant beast with a strong and flexible body stretched out its sharp claws and pierced the cracks in the rocks to climb up the city wall. The first ones to climb the city wall were the poisonous clawed monkey, a unique monkey mutant in Lushui Forest, and the assassin leopard cat.

These two mutant beasts are very flexible and extremely fast, causing a lot of trouble on the city wall. Fortunately, they are not very strong and have no cooperative thinking, so they were quickly slaughtered by the guards on the city wall.

At this time, Chen Fang had recovered from his weakness, and it was still very easy to deal with the mutant beasts such as poisonous clawed monkeys and assassin leopard cats that he often encountered in the green water forest, which had agility, strength and defense but were very limited. After harvesting the four beast heads, the battle ended temporarily.

The first wave of mutated beasts on the wall was wiped out. They thought they could rest for a while, but they didn't expect a few loud beast roars from under the city wall, and then there were continuous impact sounds, and the city wall was shaking.

"Quickly release the skills to kill the Hammerhead Bulls below, and they can't let them destroy the wall anymore."

A chief of the war department took a risk to look down and shouted loudly.

The hammer-headed cow is covered with thick rock armor, which is extremely defensive. There are three large bony lumps on its head. The impact force generated after the charge can easily smash hard rocks. If you don't stop its destruction, the city wall will A gap was created below, which is likely to cause the upper part to collapse, providing other mutant beasts with a ladder to the wall.

To deal with mutant creatures like the hammer-headed ox, which has thick skin and strong physical defense, only skills with elements have the best strike effect.

A few daring elementary-level awakeners threw their heads down and threw a few skills, but they were quickly beaten back by the attack of the long-range mutant beasts aiming at the city wall.

"No, there are mutant beasts with long-range attacks, so there is no time to aim at the armored bull." Someone shouted.

"Get out of the way, I'll come."

An awakened person of the middle-level legal system liberated the elemental armament, and gathered the elemental power with a long staff in his hand. A fire meteorite appeared in the sky and smashed down on the armored bull that was hitting under the city wall, killing it.

Other mid-level legal system awakeners also liberated their elemental weapons one after another, brandishing their weapons to launch attacks, and suddenly thunder, fire, ice and other elemental skills covered all the positions of the armored bulls.

No matter how resistant the hammerhead armored ox was, it couldn't withstand the indiscriminate bombardment of its skills. The rock armor was shattered, flesh and blood flew to ashes, and the awakened middle-level magic system used powerful attack power to temporarily resolve the crisis of the city wall.

After one wave leveled off and another wave rose again, a dark cloud came flying from the sky, which was made up of flying mutant beasts.

"The flying mutant beast is coming." Someone shouted.

Huge birds such as fire hawks and wind sculptures brought a group of smaller flying mutant beasts to attack, and a black cloud covered the sky on the city wall.

"The long-range weapon awakeners and riflemen shoot them down. The law awakeners continue to attack the mutant beasts on the ground. Don't let them climb up. The elementary awakeners pay attention to cleaning up the mutant beasts that climb up." Zhang Tianheng, who commanded on the city wall, shouted.

The firepower of the long-range weapons is changed from supporting melee to kill the mutant beasts that climbed the city wall, to attacking the flying mutant beasts in the sky. With each increase and decrease, there are more mutant beasts climbing the city wall, and from time to time there are more and more mutant beasts climbing the city wall. The attack of the falling flying mutant beast also caused a large number of casualties to the defenders, and the scene became chaotic for a while.

Chen Fang was a little tired. After fighting for a long time, his elemental energy was about to run out after killing a mutant beast. He was unable to use weapons, and his elemental energy consumption was much higher than that of awakened people of the same level. During this period, he would All the monster cores on his body are used to replenish elemental energy, which is why he can hold on until now.

Chen Fang wasn't the only one who felt exhausted. He kept resisting the waves of mutant beasts that climbed up the city wall one after another. Everyone present would inevitably feel a little strenuous.

"Persevere, persevere, Caohai's army is coming soon."

Zhang Hengtian, as an awakened middle-level fourth-level law system, pays attention to the battle situation and command arrangements while still fighting. Even his iron body is a bit unbearable. It is all supported by steel-like perseverance. At the same time, he does not forget to inject everyone faith of hope.

The city lord Lei Luo is also fighting, but he only has elementary strength. The Federation appoints the city lord only to see if the person has the ability to manage the city and employ people. The strength is not high, as long as he is awakened.

"City Lord, the Caohai garrison is calling, they will arrive within half an hour." The liaison officer ran to the City Lord and said.

"Zhang Hengtian, bring the person you mentioned here." Lei Luo frowned and looked at the floating fish in the air outside the city wall, then turned his head and shouted to Zhang Hengtian.

"However, his war song has great flaws. We don't know when the army will come. If we use it now, we will be very dangerous in the future." Zhang Hengtian said.

"The army's support will arrive within half an hour. The problem is that the air-bound fish that has been watching is about to join the battlefield. If we don't fight now, we may not be able to support the arrival. Hurry up and find that person." Lei Luo said.

After hearing this, Zhang Hengtian subconsciously looked outside the city, and saw the sky fish that had been staying behind the mutated beast began to swim towards the city wall, and immediately turned around to find someone in his heart.

"I hope that kid is not dead."

Zhang Hengtian regretted not letting Chen Fang stay by his side. Ever since he heard what Chen Fang said about the shortcomings of Zhanqu, he never thought of using it. Thirty minutes is not short, but he couldn't accurately grasp how to put Zhanqu into the battlefield. The timing is unpredictable, and once it is used, the consequences are unpredictable. He can bear the responsibility for failure, but he cannot bear the result of failure.

The battle on the city wall has been changing, from the beginning when several people beat up one person, to now several people beat up one person, just because people continue to die under the fangs and claws of mutant beasts but cannot be replenished, and because they continue to climb up The addition of mutant beasts from the city wall.

Chen Fang stood back to back with an unknown person, surrounded by seven or eight mutant beasts.

"If I can survive this time, I blew my heart out of Su Yuan. I am an ordinary person looking for a job to support my family. My daughter is just born. I don't want her to lose her father and daughter-in-law in the future. I don't want her to remarry." Unknown The Awakened chattered while resisting the claws of the mutant beast.

"The army is coming soon, hold on, we won't die." Chen Fang said.

Although they were surrounded by low-level mutant beasts, it was inevitable that they would be overwhelmed by being surrounded by several heads. There were more and more wounds on their bodies, and Chen Fang felt dizzy while losing blood.

"Group Frostbolt"

Just when Chen Fang and the awakened ones behind them were about to lose their hold, Zhang Hengtian approached them, and with an elemental skill, they directly harvested the mutant beasts surrounding them.

"Boy, come with me, I need your battle song now." Zhang Hengtian said.

Chen Fang was a little weak physically, but he still gritted his teeth and followed Zhang Hengtian.

Above the gate in the middle of the city wall.

"What's your name?" Lei Luo asked.

"Chen Fang."

"Now we need war songs to help all of us support until the army's support comes. What do we need to prepare?" Lei Luo went straight to the topic.

"A fire elemental core, the higher the level, the better." Chen Fang said.

"Fire element? Come here, bring all the cores of the fire element." Lei Luo ordered his subordinates.

"City Master, it's gone. Most of it was emptied by the core energy cannon, and the rest was used to support the consumption of the awakened." The subordinate smiled wryly.

"Chen Fang, I have a mid-level one, is that okay? If not, there are all mutant beasts that died on the city wall, but it will take time to find them." Zhang Hengtian said.

Lei Luo looked at Chen Fang.

"Yes." Chen Fang took over the core and immediately summoned the battle drum platform.

The magic circle appeared and the battle drum stand was summoned, and a huge and majestic battle drum stand appeared on the city wall. Chen Fang had no time to appreciate it, so he trotted up to the battle drum stand and stood beside the big drum.

"To ring the fire battle requires two sub-drum assistants, the system will guide them, and the assistants don't need to know drums." System.

"Come and beat the two drums at the back." Chen Fang shouted.

"Um, there are two more people, but no one knows this thing." Lei Luo's subordinates were anxious.

"No need to know, just come to two people, and my drumbeat will drive them." Chen Fang didn't explain too much.

Lei Luo and Zhang Hengtian felt unreliable after hearing this, but there was no time for detailed inquiries at this time, so Lei Luo and his subordinates ran up together, standing still on the left and right.

"Conditions for use of Burning Warfare established." System.

Chen Fang raised his hand and beat the first drumbeat.

"Boom."

Visible red light waves spread throughout the audience, and every awakened person who was swept by the light waves suddenly felt a force pouring out of their bodies and watering their whole bodies.

"Boom, boom."

The heavy drumming continued, and the blood of the Awakened was boiling.

"Boom, boom, boom."

"Roar."

The drumbeat accelerated, and the drumbeat resonated with the heartbeat of all the awakened people. The heart began to pump blood to the limbs and bones at an accelerated rate. The tired body seemed to wake up, and everyone couldn't help but roared in comfort.

"Boom, boom, boom."

The passionate drum melody aroused the unyielding will of the crowd, and the red flames ignited on their bodies and turned into a flame suit.

"kill."
