Chapter 210 Colossus
The chaos caused by the collapse of the monastery continued, and the garrison and security officers who stayed here were undoubtedly shocked by everything that happened in front of them and did not respond for a long time.
On the other hand, it was obvious that this would happen. The attackers had already evacuated in an orderly manner when they started to shake on the ground, while the garrisoners who had not yet reacted were in trouble. Just wanting to escape in the continuous shock was almost exhausted.
If it is a Habi or other winged species, they can use their flying ability to walk freely in the air - it’s a pity that humans are creatures bound to the ground by gravity. Without special equipment assistance, they will definitely not be able to get rid of the impact of ground shaking.
The guards who were caught off guard by the shock had to rush out of the area affected by the shock, and at the same time watched the buildings they were guarding turned into ruins. The tower parts of the central hall were almost completely trapped in the ground, and the soil and rocks that fell near the gentle slope destroyed everything on the path like an avalanche.
On the slope with the monastery as its highest point, the surrounding area is gradually collapsing - the soil and stone on the surface are disintegrating, and the remaining architectural ruins are also falling. In the end, the monastery, which was carefully constructed by the construction craftsmen, was shattered like a paper mold.
The buildings are built on grounds with solid foundations, and when their premises no longer exist, the whole will become extremely fragile. In the skewed buildings that finally stopped sinking, the building materials peeled off like tofu, and the columns and walls that had lost their balance are still collapsing.
A huge fall appeared at the place where the monastery chapel and atrium were once located. Looking at the few bricks and rubble left at the scene, this shock did not cause the entire foundation to fall completely. However, considering the current situation, the nearby area was actually completely destroyed.
Curt and Liqi stood in the woods on another gentle slope in the distance, looking indifferently at the huge monastery they had visited towards destruction. Compared with the losses suffered by the academy in that commotion, the destruction of this abandoned village tonight was undoubtedly more thorough.
"It's really awkward... three, no, about five guards are still trapped in the ruins." In the jungle that was not affected by the shock, Curt murmured, "It's not just these members who defend the periphery, but there should be some people in the monastery to prevent attacks behind the scenes."
This Wiggins Monastery seems to have great significance for all forces - I don’t know what influence it was. Not only did some people in the Eye of True View choose to use this place as a research place for some kind of spells, but François also cared about what was found here.
Just see dozens of guards left here and mixed forces with the garrison guarding a line of defense here. You can know how important the monastery represents is. If it weren't for worrying about alarming the enemy, Curt originally planned to help the troubled guards.
"But it may be too late." Curt sighed softly, looking at the dusty guards in the distant ruins, and raised their heads. They were trying to revive their situation, but the monsters around them had surrounded them. "Not mention the reserve team in the monastery, these people may not be able to keep them."
As it turned out, the guards guarding this line of defense had expected it. The opponent's target was the monastery - but they did not expect that the opponent would invest more force there. Unexpectedly, the remaining reserve team either died at the hands of the attackers or buried under the rubble.
Even the guards who had been stubbornly resisting the attack of monsters with their fortifications were now surrounded by the enemy. Not only the monsters that attacked them just now, but also some figures in black robes - all of them were holding a wooden spell staff in their hands.
The enemy's encirclement has surrounded the guards with three layers outside and three layers, and all the weapons have been pointed at them. Even if the guards want to resist stubbornly, it is probably only a matter of time before they are wiped out by all members - but what Curt said is too late, but this situation is not what he said.
The sound of an alarm can be vaguely heard in the distance. The attack of the True Vision Eye made such a big noise, even if the guards and garrison were exhausted to deal with it, they should have noticed the situation here. There is no doubt that the combat support of the mobile force is already on the way to arrive.
It’s a pity that Curt doubted the role the army could play at this time for the first time.
The main reason for the collapse of the ground - it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the culprit of the entire incident - is slowly standing up. After stretching its body to the fullest, the monster was slowly raising his head, and the gray body was covered with stones of different colors.
The rock gathering that was moving was probably as high as the main body of the medical building. From a distance, it was as powerful as a giant who was the legendary enemy of God. Even the guards who wanted to resist the enemy surrounding them were completely stunned after seeing this rock statue.
"It's so amazing. Should I say 'I deserve to be a member of the Super League clan'?"
Liqi nodded in praise. Even if the camps are against each other, she still must admit her success with the method warlock: "This is definitely the largest rock golem I have seen so far. Even if the power of the 'Twelve Directions' is used, it may not be easy to solve it."
Minerals have their own destiny, and they waved their palms and stepped on their legs. This is a sentence in ancient documents that describes the colossus created by ancient immortals who appeared in the mythical age and those who were once named "god" with rocks. Although I don't know how authentic these sentences are, this has always been considered by magicians to describe the powerful magic of the caster who mastered powerful magic in the mythical age.
As a once-prosperous spell discipline, golemology provided the empire with a large number of mechanical soldiers who could move with spells and use hypocritical vitality. However, with the widespread development of engineering in recent years, fewer and fewer craftsmen are willing to study ancient spells and continue to use the golem manufacturing technology that has been available since ancient times.
The mechanic dolls are more refined than golems, and can use mechanics and spells to give abilities completely different from the old golems. Even the three heavy golems that the Empire is proud of have begun to replace the mechanic golems with both maneuverability and firepower at the end of the last war. The traditional golems that fully boast about the strength of materials and individual strength can no longer adapt to the development of modern society and are gradually eliminated.
The golem, the size of a hill, that appears in front of you, is undoubtedly the highest creature that ranks at the peak of golemology in nearly two hundred years. Although such a huge amount of energy has been paid off in this almost dead subject, Liqi doesn't know if it is worth it.
So she laughed, as if she was making fun of the people in black standing on the shoulders of the golem: "What a traditional magician craft - should I praise this? Although it looks great, it is all the undead who cannot escape the burial of modern countries."
The colossus made a loud noise and moved its body. Every time he took a step, countless dust would spill on the ground. How could the ground that had already collapsed bear the weight of its body? The roads paved with rocks also left huge potholes like soft clay.
The direction of the rock statue clearly pointed to the place of Katris City. Looking at the huge gray body, Curt couldn't help but shake his head and sighed: "Things are starting to get into trouble... Are there any equipment left in the city to deal with such giant monsters? If anything else, the residents may be panicking."
In Curt's memory, the garrison responsible for guarding Katris in recent times was the Eighth Division of the Army. Most of the main forces in this army are infantry equipped with special equipment for urban warfare, and only a small number of armored units are responsible for the mobile transfer and auxiliary firepower of infantry.
There is no way to do anything about firepower - there is no way to send heavy firepower armored units in the city.
Although light mechanics and industrialized troops are still stationed in the suburbs of the city, they are undoubtedly experts in anti-guerrilla tactics, but they still lack effective firepower against giant monsters. After all, this is to prevent terrorist harassment tactics from being used. No one thought that the Eye of True Vision would play this trick.
"Yes, this is not a troublesome level at all - it's already a small war." Liqi explained the facts in a cold tone, but she did not react. "After all, most of the people living in that city are not ordinary people who have seen war..."
If it continues to bring the citizens the necessary uneasiness and pressure, it is definitely not a good idea. Instead, it will hit the terrorists' thoughts. A little bit of shaken will gradually spread among the unknown people, and eventually lead to chaos that can curb the city - the ultra-green faction seeking restoration of power is exactly the chaos that is needed.
Finally, after discovering the abnormality, the long-awaited guard vehicles and some mobile Grames with light firepower rushed to the vicinity with a sirens. When they saw the hill moving in the storm, their first reaction was to widen the distance and shoot to restrain the fire.
The roar of the mechanic gun penetrated the low sound of the earth, and the radiant projectiles shining through the wind and rain curtain, quickly and accurately shot towards the body of the cow - and then bounced open by the extremely strong skin. The slight fire chain was restrained without any effect, but the team members could only continue to shoot.
Maybe the moment they saw this colossus, their hearts had already become confused due to surprise, but each of them tried their best to control their emotions and organized human hands to try to resist the progress of the colossus. Because they all knew that if even the guardians of order were in chaos, the wave would inevitably be conveyed to the hearts of the citizens.
Behind them is the city of Catris, which lacks defensive power, and most of the residents in the city are ordinary people who are unable to defend themselves. In order to protect the peace of the powerless, they must take responsibility as powerful people. (To be continued, please search Piaotianyi, the novel is better and faster!
