Chapter 713 No way?
Tens of thousands of monsters rushed to the ice castle from all directions, and this momentum alone made people terrified.
Ghosts were everywhere under the dark night.
"Archer prepare! Archer prepare!!!" the adjutant shouted loudly, but his voice was drowned in the monster's roar and roar. Fortunately, the troops had practiced in advance to this situation, and the flag bearer stationed at the four corners accurately conveyed his orders.
The arrow fell like raindrops, and the monster rushing in front was shot into a hedgehog in just a moment and fell to the ground. However, Dracula's expression was still solemn, because he found that except for the unlucky person who had been concentrated on fire, most of the monsters who were shot at the arrow had just slowed down a little speed and did not suffer much damage.
In fact, most of the abyss creatures have thick skin and flesh. Unless they are shot together by a few arrows, or are extremely unlucky to be shot to the vital point, most of them will only be skin trauma and will not lose their ability to move. Therefore, after the first wave of arrows, there are only a few dozen monsters that were actually shot to the ground.
So Dracula stopped hesitating and shouted loudly, "Change the burst arrow!"
Explosion arrows are special types of arrows, and belong to the second type of magic weapon. Once hitting the target, it will not only cause the target to suffer through damage, but also cause explosions and cause large-scale secondary damage. It is the best weapon to deal with the current situation. But like all magic weapons, the cost of making a burst arrow is astonishing. The price of a burst arrow can be worth more than a thousand ordinary arrows, so it is difficult to equip on a large scale. The Second Infantry Regiment carried out a garrison mission this time and equipped a total of 3,000 burst arrows. This number sounds like a lot, but for the army, it is just two rounds of volleys, which will be consumed afterwards.
But this is not a time to worry about the cost. If these monsters cannot kill them as much as possible before rushing to the ice castle, the infantry regiment may not be able to support even a round of attacks.
In fact, just as the archers replaced the burst arrows, monsters rushed under the city wall. The huge body hit the ice castle, and the ice edges splashed everywhere. The monster did not slow down and stepped on the back of the former and jumped up towards the city wall.
The ice castle at the Second Infantry Regiment's base cannot be compared with the real castle. The city wall is only nine meters high. It is not an insurmountable barrier for these monsters with amazing physical fitness. Those who jump high can already grasp the wall, but then a red arrow with flames hit its chest.
The monster was shot and staggered, but did not turn around and escape. Instead, it was aroused of hidden ferociousness. It waved its front paws and slapped the soldiers on the city wall. However, for some reason, its body suddenly settled there halfway. The next moment, the place where it was shot in the arrow suddenly exploded, and a fierce fire snake surged out from the wound, swallowing the monster in one bite. Even the soldiers close to it were ignited together and screamed.
The adjutant was anxious, "Click at the bottom of the city wall!!! The monsters that had already climbed up will be dealt with by the swordsman!"
The archers who received the order stabilized their panic and then pointed the burst arrows in their hands at the sea of monsters in the distance. Thousands of burst arrows were shot out together, as if they were about to light up the entire sky.
This time, the roar of magic finally overwhelmed the heart-wrenching vibration, and the army of monsters rushing towards the ice castle suffered an unprecedented painful blow. In just a few breaths, at least three thousand monsters were engulfed by the fire. In addition, the burning flames also formed a protective circle to protect the ice castle in the center.
Those abyss monsters who want to attack the ice castle must first pass through this flame zone. Dracula ordered the stop shooting and replace it with ordinary arrows. Tonight should be long, with less than a thousand burst arrows left. He is ready to stay in the most critical moment.
The results of the attack just now greatly inspired the soldiers guarding the city. For a moment, the city walls were filled with joy, but Dracula was not optimistic. Even if the remaining 1,000 burst arrows were counted, they could only kill four or five thousand monsters at most, which was less than one-quarter of the entire monster army. The remaining 10,000 monsters were not blocked by the flesh and blood of the Second Infantry Regiment.
Dracula looked up at the sky. When there were nearly five magics before Tianming, it was basically impossible to keep this ice castle for such a long time.
Have you really reached a dead end?
Although he had already realized that he had fought to the last man, as the commander of this army, it was difficult for him to remain indifferent as his subordinates were all buried in this wasteland.
"Captain, take advantage of the injury on the other side, open the city gate and go out to kill. I will lead the team. One thousand people are enough." The adjutant asked for the battle excitedly.
At this time, you can indeed kill the monsters as much as possible when they are stunned by the explosion arrows. However, when the monsters come to their senses, the two legs on the flat tundra will definitely not be able to run four legs, so these thousand people basically don’t think they will come back.
Dracula agreed to the adjutant's request to organize the suicide squad, but rejected the latter's self-recommendation in the selection of the team, "You have to stay on the top of the city to continue commanding the battle, so I'll lead the team."
The adjutant was shocked when he heard this, "You are the soul of this army. If you are gone, how can the rest of the people stick to it?"
Dracula's tone was calm, "I promised to fight side by side with you, and now is the time for me to fulfill my promise. We have practiced countless times in the past two years. I believe that even if I am gone, you can still command this force."
The adjutant wanted to persuade him again, but Dracula had already put on his helmet and walked to the place where the troops gathered under the city, glanced at the faces in front of him and said, "I plan to go out of the city to teach those monsters a lesson. Does anyone want to go together?"
After a brief silence, the young soldier who had kicked over the soup bowl first took the first step, and then the second and third... more and more people walked out of their queues, and soon gathered a thousand people. Some people behind them kept coming forward to join, but were stopped by the adjutant.
The wooden door slowly opened, and Dracula raised the long sword in his hand, "For the Empire!!!"
"For the Empire!!!" The shouts of a thousand people gathered together, and the sound shook the whole field.
Chapter completed!
