Heaven’s Intention

In the early morning of the next day, the world outside the mining area. The sun was shining brightly, but in the mining area, the light was dim, and the smell of blood was full, which made people feel very depressing.

The second line of defense was built not too far from the crack. The construction of the line of defense was similar to the half-wall line of defense during the tug-of-war on the earth. It was piled up with stones and weapons, and people hid behind. It can prevent various attacks of the enemy and has a certain degree of defense.

At this moment, on this line of defense, several heavy crossbows are constantly firing towards the enemy in front, and huge arrows are constantly shot out, with fierce force, blasting into the advancing monster group, penetrating more than a dozen monsters. Little devil, tore their flesh and blood.

Speaking of these powerful heavy crossbows, they were actually transported here in the middle of the night last night. Romon's logistics force sent a small team. Four of the six heavy crossbows that were originally placed on the city wall were removed and transported over, and two of them were placed on the first line of defense.

Different from the power of the small crossbow, the arrows fired by this heavy crossbow have to be fired farther, and the force is of course much greater. The crossbow itself is as thick as a bowl, and it is three meters long. It is very powerful and often penetrates ten A few little devils can penetrate into the stone wall, and their power is no less than that of the heavy crossbow on earth.

As soon as Romon got the heavy crossbow, he attacked the attacking monsters and demons. Coupled with the cooperation of the crossbow, it caused a lot of damage to the opponent.

Another short fighting break.

Romon saw that after a night, the soldiers' fighting spirit was a bit sluggish, and they had a rest according to the scheduled plan. Farfer and a dozen soldiers were still responsible for the supply and reinforcements in the rear.

And Romon led other people on the defensive line, causing trouble for the enemy and causing them to lose their troops.

At six o'clock in the morning, they noticed something strange. Less than 500 meters away from the second line of defense, a simple altar was being built, and several big demons were directing the construction of the altar. While letting those little devils and monsters continue to fight forward.

The little devil didn't seem to know how to be afraid and retreat. Although Romon and the others gave the opponent a very fierce attack, they still fell down one after another, and rushed up one after another, which made people very headache.

Romon, look at them, what are those three big demons building behind? Farfell also obviously noticed the strange behavior of the other party, walked over from behind, and asked.

Luo Meng narrowed his eyes, stared at it, and replied, It's the altar.

The altar? Farfell looked at the big demons and the strange stone pile that was about to be built in a puzzled way: Why are they building this? It's a war now, and there's still time for this ceremony?

Romon gave him a white look,

Worried about this guy's lack of knowledge: You, have you forgotten what I told you last time, the undead ghost thing? This kind of dark altar can provide people with this kind of dark power. They build this, It is probably because of these tug-of-wars and their heavy losses, I have a feeling that if they are really allowed to build this altar, I am afraid that we will be in trouble.

When Fafer heard it, he immediately understood, and was a little anxious: Then what are you waiting for, we can't let them build that altar!

Romon nodded: I think so too.

Afterwards, he walked up to the soldier who was firing the heavy crossbow and long arrows, and watched the other party shoot a few more heavy crossbow long arrows, and then he said: Can you shoot those big demons?

The soldier turned his head and saw that it was the lord who was talking to him, and immediately replied respectfully: My lord, you can try it!

Well, have you seen the stone platform that those big demons are building? Shoot there and destroy that stone platform. Romon pointed to the location and said.

The soldier immediately said, Yes, my lord.

The angle of the heavy crossbow was quickly adjusted to the position aimed at the stone platform, and then, with Romon's order, a long arrow of the heavy crossbow quickly passed through.

The speed of the heavy crossbow and long arrows was so fast that even if those big demons found out, they could do nothing to stop them. They could only watch helplessly as a heavy crossbow and long arrows, with a very powerful impact force, pushed them away from the stones they accumulated. A hole smashed in the table.

Stop them! These despicable humans! a big demon roared angrily.

One of the little devils beside it was also hit by stone fragments, and it was covered in blood, which actually stimulated the big devil. It grabbed a wounded little devil, tore it alive, and then put it in its mouth to bite. Confronted with its murderous manifestation. The other little devils were trembling with fright, but the heavy crossbows and long arrows fired one after another from Romon's side almost drove these big devils mad.

Quick! Tear up those humans! Quick! they shouted.

Under their yelling, more and more monsters and little demons came to kill Romon, and these few big demons saw that the altar that was about to be built was destroyed like this, although they were very unwilling, but There was no other way, so I had to back away for a long distance, almost back to the crack, and rebuild the altar.

Can you shoot there? Seeing that they had changed places, Romon turned to ask the soldier who fired the heavy crossbow and long arrows.

The soldier replied in embarrassment: Sorry, my lord, the farthest range of heavy crossbows and long arrows can only reach the position just now.

Okay, thank you for your hard work, you can continue to launch. Romon knew that he couldn't stop the construction of the altar this time, so he could only watch depressedly as the big demons urged the little demons to build a altar behind. Altar of stone.

Farfell brought in a batch of crossbow arrows from the outside with his team members. When he saw Romon, he couldn't help crawling over and asked, What's going on now?

Romon frowned and said, The altar just now has been destroyed, but they are building a new altar now.

Farfell tried his best to look into the distance, and sure enough, the new altar was half built. He said anxiously: Then continue to destroy it.

Luo Meng shook his head: No way. The distance is too far, let alone my fireball and lightning spells, even the two heavy crossbows will definitely not be able to pass.

So what? Farfell asked.

While throwing a fireball into the crowd of monsters and blowing up a few monsters, Romon replied, Just wait and see what happens. If it doesn't work, we'll retreat to the third line of defense. Here, we've already consumed a lot of them. With a small force, even if we withdraw, it will be enough.

It was the first time I saw Romon speak the words enough in such a hideous manner. Farfell felt a little weird, holding a crossbow in his hand, and while shooting at the little devils outside the line of defense, he said, Yeah, we have killed hundreds of little devils from the beginning until now. Demons, look, their corpses are everywhere in the mining area, compared to our casualties are relatively small.

Speaking of this, Romon thought of the wounded who had just been carried down, and asked, How about those wounded?

Farfer said: The pastor is treating them, and they are basically fine. There are a few who are prone to poisoning, and the pastor has treated their wounds according to the method you taught. If they are serious, they will be withdrawn to the village for recuperation.

Romon nodded: That's good.

While they were talking, the altar on the side of the great devil had been built. I saw these big demons each grabbing a little demon next to them, tearing them apart alive, tearing out all the internal blood vessels, and then contributing the bloody ones on the altar, and then, Start some sort of sinister ritual.

Bursts of black mist emerged from the altar, and the little devil stirred up as if he had taken a stimulant.

Romon, why do these little devils seem to have stronger defenses? Not long after, Farfell had already discovered the difference between these monsters and little devils.

Just now, they were easy to kill with one arrow, but now, the black mist seems to have awakened something in their bodies, their eyes are blood red, and they are not afraid of death, even on the skin, there is an extra layer of defensive dark force field, Basically, stronger forces are needed to penetrate them.

Romon frowned when he saw it, and he finally understood the function of this altar: It is to stimulate the vitality of these monsters and little devils, and improve their combat effectiveness and defense capabilities in a short period of time.

Everyone, retreat quickly and retreat to the third line of defense! At this time, the battle lasted all night. The fortifications were already incomplete. Seeing that a large number of monsters had rushed over, Romon had no choice but to lead the crowd back.

When the little devils poured into the second line of defense, there was a boom, and the originally prepared trap played a role. The oil and firewood burned, creating a huge sea of ​​flames.

With this barrier, Romon and others have safely withdrawn to the third line of defense, and based on the advantage here, they launched an attack on these monsters.

Another group of monsters fell under their attack.

However, due to the appearance of the altar, the strength of the demon side has increased significantly, and Romon's side will deal with them with greater intensity than before, but the effect may not be great, so the battle begins to move toward both sides. A very tragic direction.

At about ten o'clock in the morning, the battle was fierce, with many casualties on both sides. The number of priests who needed treatment increased greatly, and those who had been in charge of logistics at the beginning had to go to the battlefield at this time, in order to defend their homeland. struggle.

When the two sides rested again, Romon went to the back to look. Looking at the moaning soldiers lying on the ground, he began to consider whether to abandon the third line and continue to retreat.

However, judging from the current situation, even if he keeps retreating, he can at most block the opponent for a period of time in defense. It seems that it is not easy to really eliminate the opponent in the defensive battle.

What should I do? Romon asked himself. (!)
