Chapter 274: One shot determines the outcome

That was a mutant individual that had never been seen before - even in the wasteland of Gondor seven hundred years ago, Gawain Cecil had never seen aberrations like that: there were four of them in total. , the body size is almost two to three times the size of ordinary aberrations. Their limbs are swollen, and growth structures like bone spurs can be seen on most joints. At the same time, each bone spur is surging with an unknown black and red color. Electric arcs, especially on their backs, the bone spurs proliferating from the ribs even formed a structure like parallel rails. As these four giant individuals emitted chaotic and incomprehensible roars from their bodies, the arcs on their bone spurs also suddenly expanded. After getting up, the next second, Gawain saw four huge lightning bolts suddenly hitting the city wall!

An attack form that has never been seen before, exceeding the expected attack distance.

Gawain was taken aback, but his body had subconsciously reacted. He poured magic power into the long sword, and the Pioneer Sword burst into a dazzling white light, and then he swung the long sword down continuously, Two shock waves met two of the black and red lightnings respectively, and not far from the middle of the city wall, an arcane lightning also suddenly lit up, and the third attack was dispersed with a bang - that was where Kamel was sitting. direction.

The fourth black-red lightning missed the bottom of the city wall, and with an explosion, large swaths of dust and gravel erupted from the roots of the city wall.

After issuing this sudden blow, the four mutated aberrations did not continue to release lightning - probably this kind of attack also requires a lot of energy, and they cannot be used continuously - -The electric light on the bone spurs on their backs weakened slightly, and then these monsters straightened up, with their faceless heads facing the direction of the city wall. Waves of muddy roars came from their bodies, and the army of aberrations behind them seemed to be suffering. It was like something exciting. Suddenly, the collective became excited and began to charge with alarming momentum.

As mentioned in the report, the mutants around those mutant monsters will be "strengthened" with unknown principles. Both their desire to attack and their movement speed have increased significantly!

"Trebuchets, keep dropping bombs!" Knight Byron roared loudly, "Grenadiers, keep dropping bombs! Focus on attacking those giant monsters!"

Big and small explosions began to appear in the sky There was an explosion in the army of aberrations. The soldiers responsible for throwing crystal grenades were all people with amazing arm strength selected from various detachments. But even so, it was difficult for them to throw the grenades at the feet of the large monsters that were still far away. Only the trebuchet had enough range - but after a round of bombs were thrown, Gawain couldn't help but frown.

The accuracy is too bad, and the rate of fire is too bad.

More than a dozen bombs exploded on the battlefield. Although they tried their best to target the four mutants, the poor accuracy of the trebuchet still caused each explosion to land far away from those monsters. After a round of attacks, a lot of ordinary aberrations were indeed shattered to pieces, but the real enemies to be dealt with were still running intact on the battlefield.

"Keep dropping bombs! ”

The team operating the trebuchet tightened the winch and reloaded as quickly as possible because they knew the fatal weakness of the trebuchet—not only were they poor in accuracy and slow in firing rate, but their range was also almost fixed. , even if the range is roughly changed by adjusting the winch and lever arm, they are unable to attack enemies who are too close, and those aberrations...their movement speed is getting faster and faster under the influence of those large individuals, Soon they will all cross the limit of the nearest range.

In the second round of attacks, a crystal bomb finally hit the target. A mutated large individual was hit solidly by the bomb, with a huge momentum. An astonishing explosion, overwhelming fragments of filthy flesh and bones were scattered on the battlefield, and more monsters continued to approach the city wall in the process.

The trebuchets had stopped attacking. At this distance, they. It could no longer function, and the team operating the trebuchet quickly retreated from the outer tower to the city wall. They opened the safety of the thermal ray gun and began to prepare with the shooting team to deal with the monsters that began to climb the city wall.

They are intelligent, at least capable of simple thinking - this is the surprising conclusion that Gawain came to during his short observation.

The reaction of ordinary aberrations after feeling the stimulation of magic or the breath of living people. It is almost a conditioned reflex, and their rampage is even worse than cunning beasts. Therefore, humans can always use tactics and traps to deal with them. However, those large individuals...just judging from the fact that they do not charge with them. , which is already a shocking performance.

More importantly, they seem to be able to control the ordinary aberrations as cannon fodder - precisely because of the existence of those four large individuals, the aberrations' The attack was divided into two waves, and the second batch of attacks was dragged to the present by the four monsters.

Rough operations, but even the most rudimentary operations are the prototype of tactics.

This wave of attacks can be defended, although it will be attacked. There have been some variables, but the power of the Cecil Combat Corps still firmly suppressed those monsters. The aberrations currently rushing under the city wall are dying in pieces under the concentrated attack of crystal grenades and thermal energy rays. Not even a single enemy can Climbing up the city wall, the soldiers didn't even use the melting sword.

But those mutant guys who seemed to have some thinking ability were very disturbing - they had to be eliminated as soon as possible.

But just when Gawain was about to take action, the three mutant monsters also started to take action. Under the cover of cannon fodder, they had rushed to a position very close to the city wall. At this moment, they suddenly bent down together, and the ones behind them The bone spurs once again floated in dense black and red colorArc!

Kamael, who was responsible for guarding the middle part of the city wall, immediately opened a magic barrier to protect the city wall under his feet. At the same time, he began to brew a powerful arcane magic. But before the attack was launched, he suddenly felt The surrounding magic field changed, which made him stop in shock.

The magic field shrouded on the city wall and supported by the magic obelisk suddenly accelerated its flow. A huge amount of magic was gathering in a certain direction. Kamel looked over according to his perception. , I was shocked to see the tough-headed little girl climbing to the highest tower, raising her staff high.

And a fireball that was almost as big as a city gate was rapidly taking shape above the little girl - and it was getting bigger.

Even Gawain sensed this astonishing flow of magic power. He glanced back almost in horror, breaking into cold sweat on the spot - What did Rebecca rub? !

The fireball as huge as the city gate has condensed into shape at this moment, and becomes brighter and brighter as the magic power is filled. Its color gradually changes from red to yellow and white, while Rebecca under the fireball is full of energy. With a look of excitement on her face, she was wrapped with a strange wide metal "belt". Those metal plates were emitting an eye-catching magical light at the moment, and the staff in her hand was erupting like a lit sun torch. With the dazzling light, after noticing that she had finally created the largest fireball in history, Rebecca was as excited as a naughty child who was about to be hung from the rafters and beaten by her ancestors and aunt, and she shouted as hard as she could: "Master Ancestor! Look what I got out!!"

Gawain's roar resounded throughout the audience: "Throw it out!"

"Okay!" Rebecca shouted, and then started to move the staff in her hand with all her strength - the fireball condensed by magic did not have much weight, but the excitement of the magic field made the staff in her hand seem to be attracted by a magnet. It is the same as living, and it is extremely difficult to swing. A normal mage would probably start to despair at this moment - the weak mage cannot push out the huge fireball at all, but can only be smashed to pieces by this severely overloaded magic. But is Rebecca a normal mage?

After pushing and finding that there was no push, Rebecca stopped trying to suck the milk and used the same strength that she used to kill the wolf with three punches when she passed the family trial, "Hey "With a sound, the fireball as big as the city gate flew towards the battlefield in the eyes of countless people in horror.

Even monsters with low thinking ability will feel the terrifying power from this fireball. The three mutant monsters who originally planned to destroy the city wall with a close blow suddenly stopped when they discovered this fireball. They retracted the half-breathing lightning strike, and then made a move that was impossible for ordinary aberrations - they turned around and ran away.

Gawain was finally able to be completely sure: these mutated large individuals were capable of thinking.

At this moment, Rebecca’s super big fireball hasIt fell on the battlefield - it fell behind the three mutated monsters who turned around and fled. In the first second, it just fell calmly, melting the ground like a red-hot iron ball falling on cheese, and The surrounding monsters evaporated, but after a second, the unstable magical energy inside it finally burst out.

With a deafening roar, a small mushroom cloud slowly rose in front of Cecil's south wall.

Nearly all the remaining monsters on the battlefield were wiped out after this blow.

Looking at the slowly rising mushroom cloud, a sincere smile appeared on Rebecca's face. She suddenly felt that her "Fireball Way" seemed to be a good path.

The big fireball is ready, it can protect everyone and bring miracles——

Then the girl who drained her mental energy with the big fireball fell straight down. Go down.

On the city wall, most people could not recover from the earth-shattering explosion just now.

Gawain had already seen Rebecca fall, but there was a black shadow rushing up to the tower beside him. It was Amber. With Amber taking care of him, he felt relieved and turned around. Looking in the direction of the battlefield.

A hideous and ugly hand suddenly protruded from the edge of the city wall not far ahead. Then under the gaze of many people, the last surviving aberration in the battle finally climbed up the city wall.

Although he didn’t know how it survived, Gawain knew that it was hacked to death by at least twenty people.
