Chapter 802 Unstoppable

"They shouldn't dare to delay it for so long. After all, this war is not isolated. Once the Tukan people temporarily lose the ability to cross the lake, we can dispatch more witches from the front line to fight back against them."

Witch Akabane objected and said, "The decisive battle will definitely break out tonight. Those magic trees will most likely arrange the general attack before dawn. By then, our military supplies will be consumed in large quantities and the soldiers will be exhausted to the extreme."

"We can't let them lead us by the nose." Gavin paced back and forth, "Feints also require a combination of reality and reality. If they are all feints, it will be meaningless.

Put the enemy's feint troops on the city wall and lure them from feint to full-scale attack. Even if they refuse to launch, we can earn a wave of feint troops from them in vain. I want to see how much cannon fodder they have for us. kill. "

"This is a way, but if this happens, the number of casualties will increase significantly." Hansen said with some worry.

"Since it is a war, how can there be no one who is not injured!" Gavin said with a cold expression, "The slow movement speed is the fatal flaw of these activated plants. Even if they launch a full-scale attack, it is difficult for them to catastrophically collapse. , this is an inevitable process, it is better to have everything in your own hands than to be passive.”

"If you give up tactics that are beneficial to us because you are afraid of casualties, it would be the greatest dereliction of duty for a commander." Akabane Witch suggested, "I support the commander's decision."

"I'm sorry, I was overly worried. Then we will implement the plan according to the commander." Han Suo no longer objected.

Once a resolution was reached, orders were quickly passed on.

The city of Uxmail suddenly fell into silence, and even the lighting arrows used for observation were no longer fired, but the entire city wall and the 18-meter radius were fully illuminated.

Those spellcasters cast the daylight spell directly on the city wall.

Soon those dead branch monsters came up under the cover of darkness. It was still a feint attack. The formation was sparse, and there was only one dead branch monster several meters away.

"Fire the arrow, fire the arrow quickly, the enemy is coming."

When the novices saw the dead branch monsters exposed in sight, no matter how many there were, they couldn't help but prepare to set up their bows and shoot arrows.

"Save arrows. Are these little guys worth wasting arrows? Just set up your shields and wait and see." The giant valley rangers stopped the recruits, put away their bows and arrows, and drew out their own melee weapons. arms.

With rich combat experience, they don't take the dead branch monsters seriously at all, and they are not surprised by their strange appearance. There are many more bizarre existences in the forest than them.

When those dead branch monsters climbed up the city wall with great difficulty, before they could launch an attack, the sword light like a snow chain arrived.

The giant valley rangers unanimously targeted the withered branch monster's slender waist, either with one sword in two sections, or with two swords in three sections or more.

After landing, most of them became silent and turned into real dead branches.

Whether they are activated plants or undead, although they are not as critical as living things, they all have vitality, even the undead without constitution, because this represents the essence of their souls.

When their soul essence is consumed, it is also the moment when they become dead objects again.

Therefore, even if they have a certain resistance to bows and arrows, if they are hit too many, they will still be shot to death, and their life essence will be scattered in the process.

In this way, the feint tactic of the withered army turned into a tactic of refueling.

After three waves in a row, the giant valley rangers only waved their swords three or four times, and there were thousands of corpses of dead branch monsters under the city wall of Usmail.

Those dead branch monsters didn't even have a chance to touch the clothes of the defenders, let alone climb the city wall. The combat experience of both sides was not at the same level at all.

boom! boom! boom!

The huge crash officially kicked off the war.

Huge projectiles hit the top of Usmail City one after another. The Usmail City defenders were a little confused when they believed that the enemy had no long-range attack.

When he took a closer look, he saw that where the projectiles were, they were clearly the withered vine monsters entangled with countless vines.

The violent impact did not kill them. They climbed up from the ground unsteadily, waving their vine arms to attack the surrounding defenders.

"Don't come here! Don't come here! Don't come here!"

"Ahhh...monster...what kind of monster is this?"

"The monster has attacked the city wall. The monster has attacked the city wall. We can't hold it anymore. We can't hold it anymore!"

The Usmail militiamen who had little combat experience fell into chaos. They were not mentally prepared to face these monsters. After all, they subconsciously thought that they only needed to guard the city wall and shoot outside the city. Archery, stabbing and lance will do.

"Don't mess around. These monsters are not as scary as you think! They are already half dead. Change your spears. Everyone nearby should change their spears and come with me."

The giant valley rangers stood up again, stabilized their position, casually drew a spear, and pointed it directly at the bodies of the withered vine monsters. The three- or four-meter spear was fired at them, even if they were The vine arms can be dragged to the ground and are one and a half meters long, but there is no way to attack the owner of the spear.

When the Usmail militiamen saw it, they suddenly became bold. They set up their spears and stabbed the withered vine monster.

The stabbing effect was extremely poor. These vines were stacked in layers, and there was no telling how many layers there were. They were very tough, just like natural vine armor, and could play an effective defensive role. Most of the stabbings were difficult to penetrate into its body, and naturally could not hurt the life essence hidden deep in the body.

Miracles come from great strength.

Occasionally, some strong people, with the help of a running start, stabbed the spear deep into the body of the withered vine monster.

A thick substance suddenly gushed out of his body, showing black, fishy, ​​and sticky. It stuck wherever it was thrown.

Whoosh!

Some of it splashed into the surrounding fire and immediately exploded.

"This thing is flammable, hurry up, hurry up, use fire attack!"

Some smart people reacted immediately, dipped their spears in the grease used to oil the rocket, wrapped them in a layer of cotton cloth, ignited them, and converted them into a temporary musket, and stabbed the wound of the injured withered vine monster.

Boom!

The blood-like substance flowing out of the withered vine monster's body was indeed highly flammable and burned violently on the spot.

Soon the entire withered vine monster was ignited, like a huge torch. They struggled frantically, as if they wanted to fight to the death, but were blocked by several long spears and could not move.

"Be careful!"

"Get out of the way!"

The Giant Valley Rangers shouted a warning, but it was still a step too late.

Many withered vine monsters that could not move, whether they were ignited or dying, exploded with a bang, and countless smelly liquids and vines swept all around, covering the area with a radius of four or five meters.

Those Usmer militiamen who did not dodge in time were sprayed on the spot. Those withered vine monsters that were not ignited were okay, at most they were smelly and itchy.

Those withered vine monsters that were ignited were in trouble, and they directly ignited the people who were splashed, causing them to roll over in pain, causing a lot of chaos.

The black substance in the body of the withered vine monster is similar to grease. It is difficult to extinguish with water and is very resistant to burning. If it gets on clothes, you can get rid of it by taking off the clothes, but once it gets on the skin, either the part will be burned or the skin and flesh will be cut off.

There are many ruthless people among the Usmer militia. They directly took out the short knives they carried with them, cut the flesh, and broke the arms. Even if they paid a heavy price, it was better than being burned to death.

"Don't fight with them, push them off the city wall, and then ignite them with rockets."

The defenders of Usmer City, who suffered a great loss, quickly adjusted their tactics. The Usmer militia took advantage of the long spears and directly held the withered vine monsters, either pushing them outward or picking them up, and threw them out of the city wall one by one.

Accurate rockets followed closely, hitting their wounds covered with rancid grease and igniting them.

The explosion of the withered vine monsters is obviously uncontrollable, especially after being ignited. Even if they fall into a group of companions, they will still explode.

Many of them exploded directly in the air, and a rain of fire fell outside the walls of Usmer City, igniting a large number of withered branch monsters.

As long as you understand the characteristics, these withered vine monsters are not difficult to deal with. Although there will still be withered vine monsters hitting the walls from time to time, the Usmer militia alone are enough to clean them up again.

"Prepare for a large-scale impact, those withered branch monsters are rushing up again."

This army of activated plants actually achieved infantry and artillery coordination. When these withered vine monsters thrown on the walls created chaos here, countless withered branches rushed out from the darkness again, densely packed like ants, and soon rushed to the walls of Usmer City and began to spread upwards.

"What are you waiting for? Throw the fire glue bottle, throw it quickly, don't hold back, the enemy is attacking in full force!"

"All fire magic, attack freely, bomb them to death."

"City defense crossbow carts, move, move, move, find the guys throwing the withered vine monsters, they are definitely not siege equipment, but are thrown up by manpower, they must not be too far away."

"Rockets, all rockets carry out covering fire."

The defenders of Usmer City no longer hold back, and use all means.

There are fire glue bottles in the near distance, fire wall and fireball in the medium range, and rockets and city defense crossbow carts in the distance. A large amount of fire magic ignites the battlefield again, breaking through part of the darkness, where there are densely packed with withered branch monsters, withered vine monsters and withered needle monsters like ants.

If the withered branch monsters are the infantry of the withered army, and the withered vine monsters are self-destructive control soldiers, then the withered needle monsters belong to the long-range soldiers. They can fire the needles on their bodies more than ten meters away from the city to attack the enemies on the city wall.

Although these needles are made of wood and have a relatively short range, their penetration ability is stronger than those heavy crossbows. They can penetrate several centimeters into brick and stone walls, not to mention those cotton armor and animal skin armor, which can be easily penetrated.

The most troublesome thing is the paralysis toxin contained in these wooden thorns. The part that is shot will soon lose consciousness.

If you are shot three times in a row, even if you don’t hit the vital part, you will be paralyzed and lie on the ground for a long time.

If you are shot with more than five needles in a row, without the corresponding healing magic to heal, it won’t take long for the victim to die suddenly because their heart is paralyzed and stops beating.

Normal withered vine monsters do not have this self-destructive property, and there is no paralysis toxin in the needles of withered needle monsters.

This is the result of the fusion of the withering power of the ancient evil tree Gantias and the magic tree, which makes their combat effectiveness rise sharply.

However, when it comes to killing, the first choice is still humanoid creatures who are proficient in using various tools.

Under the reckless bombardment, the death toll of the withered army is dozens of times that of the Usmer defenders.

Whether it is the withered branch monster, the withered vine monster and the withered branch monster, they are all falling in groups.

Although the wall of Usmer City is not high, it is enough to drag these relatively simple means of activating plant monsters here.

Until the flame city defense crossbow arrows within the range of the city defense crossbow arrows broke through the darkness in the distance, exposing the throwers of the withered vine monsters to everyone's sight.

The five-meter-high wall of Usmer City is not as high as the thigh of the opponent's spider tree root.

Vines like super pythons hung from the huge tree canopy to the ground, rolling up the surrounding dead vine monsters like throwing projectiles, and easily throwing them hundreds of meters away. And there were not just one such vine on the other side, but as many as eight.

The tree canopy was full of purple gourd-shaped fruits of different sizes, which kept swinging and wriggling as it slowly moved forward, as if there were living things trying to get out of it.

Those flame city defense crossbow arrows that were thicker than an adult's arm and two and a half meters long fell on it, like an awl. Including the spider tree roots that rose from the ground, its height was at least more than 30 meters, and it was an absolute super giant.

Surrounding it were countless sturdy purple magic tree people, who, like hardworking worker ants, turned out the half-burned beast bodies in the pit and sent them to this behemoth.

The vine tentacles swung, rolled them up and sent them to the main pole. A vertical big mouth split open from the tree trunk. This big mouth was so terrifying that it was not only full of thorns and sharp teeth, but also unusually large, enough to easily fit a heavy carriage in it.

Demonic tree!

This is the famous top predator among the animated plants.

Its original body is even more ferocious than the legend. Many weak-willed people, just by seeing its ferocious eating scene, trembled and lost the courage to fight it.

And such a terrifying existence is not just one, but as many as thirty.

Not to mention the Usmer militia, even those experienced giant valley rangers couldn't help but gasp and felt cold all over. Is there any way to fight this battle?

The moment the other party reaches the city wall, it will also be the moment when Usmer City is broken, because this city wall is useless to them. They can cross it with just a lift of their feet, and the other party's random attack can cause large sections of the city wall to collapse.

The only thing to be thankful for is that this guy is too heavy and moves very slowly. Even if they try their best to move quickly, the distance of 300 meters is enough for them to walk for several minutes.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

One after another, huge fireballs as big as washbasins fell from the top of a magic tree, one after another, a total of four. From a distance, they look like fiery red beads, and such beads are hit in three strings.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Standing on the wall of Usmer City, these beads are very inconspicuous, but when they fall on the magic tree, they have become as big as water tanks. After hitting it, the highly condensed flame elements exploded instantly, and the crazy flame waves devoured everything around.

The huge gourd-shaped fruit on the treetop was blown away and fell to the ground, breaking into pieces, revealing the magic tree people that had not yet fully formed. The small ones had not yet seen their outlines, and the big ones were no different from the fully formed magic tree people, but they were much smaller in height and size, just like dwarfs.

These magic tree people showed strong vitality. Not only did the dwarf-like magic tree people stand up shakily, but even those who had not formed did not die on the spot and tried to climb up with difficulty.

Many tree trunks were broken on the spot, and a vine tentacle tried to resist and parry these fireballs, but was broken on the spot.

And this was only the killing effect of the first meteor fireball. There were eleven more meteor fireballs that fell like beads.

The slow-moving and extremely large magic trees were living targets. There was no possibility of dodging. The only thing they could do was to wave their vine tentacles with all their strength for the final resistance.

The seven dancing vine tentacles actually achieved a certain effect, hitting as many as four meteor fireballs and exploding them on the spot.

However, this method is just like using a knife to cut the fireball spell. At most, it can prevent it from hitting directly and exert the maximum killing effect, and the impact and killing will not be small at all.

The vine tentacle that collided with it was broken on the spot at the impact position, and the flame shock wave formed by the explosion licked the magic tree unscrupulously.

When the flame shock wave generated by the twelve meteor fireballs dissipated, the magic tree fell on the spot, and its appearance became extremely miserable. Only one of the eight vine tentacles was intact, and the remaining seven were all incomplete. There were no needle-like leaves or gourd-shaped fruits on the crown of the tree.

The spider leg tree root was also broken by one-third, and it lay on the ground tilted.

I don’t know if it’s dead or not, but at least there is no way to attack the city of Usmer.
