The Origin of Arcane

Thank you uncle for your teaching. Jemiler took the beef jerky respectfully, threw one piece into his mouth imitatively, and carefully put away the others, while remembering carefully that although these small things are inconspicuous, But they are all based on the experience accumulated by veterans.

I really don't have anything else to teach you. You should know that your officers should have taught you during the usual training. Veteran Jim continued lazily, The only thing I can tell you is, If you want to survive, you can’t be cowardly. The more you coax to death, the faster you will die, because bullying the strong and fearing the soft is a common problem for everyone. The more cowardly you are, the easier it is for the enemy to come to you. When everyone is fierce, it is not the battlefield that dominates you, but you that dominate the battlefield.

I see! Jamil nodded heavily, and pushed his not-so-strong chest vigorously, trying to show a fierce expression, but no matter how he looked at it, his momentum was not enough.

Here we come! Jim, who had been lazily as if he hadn't fully woken up, suddenly sat up straight, his eyes sparkled, and a fierce aura rushed towards his face.

Jamil shuddered involuntarily, feeling that the person sitting in front of him was no longer the kind middle-aged man, but a ferocious beast.

This is the true face of a veteran of a hundred battles.

Situations similar to Jim’s can be found everywhere on the walls of Hukoubao.

They went from the most lazy and indifferent group of people to the most serious and vicious group of people.

Jemiler was a little confused at first, not knowing why Uncle Jim, who was originally kind, suddenly became so serious.

Immediately afterwards, various strange cries and the sound of horseshoes came at the same time like a mountain roaring and a tsunami.

That kind of terrifying movement made Jamil, who had never experienced such a battle, turn pale and sweat profusely, which soon wet the underclothes under the leather armor, sticking to his body sticky, very uncomfortable.

He was obviously not in the mood to care about these things now, curled up behind the city wall, and the centurion's shouts echoed in his ears.

Steady, steady, they are just testing now, they are not allowed to launch a counterattack, wait until they are brought closer.

Everyone pay attention to avoid, the rain of arrows is coming.

Everyone, don't mess around and follow my orders.

Those veterans who have experience fighting Odin orcs like Jim, know how to do it even without the reminders and orders from these middle and low-level commanders. Although their spirits and spirits have changed, their bodies have not changed much. , leaning against the parapet wall, some of them are still resting with their eyes closed.

It's different for a recruit like Jamil who has never been on the battlefield. Although he has been in the Broken Pulse Defense Line for a long time and has not less training, he is still a recruit.

The spirit is highly tense, and the body is stretched tightly like a spring. It will be okay for a while, but it will almost cramp after a long time.

Listening to the strange screams and the sound of horseshoes outside the city wall, time became even more difficult.

At this moment, they felt like they were blind, and they didn't know what was going on outside.

Although his centurion reminded him repeatedly, and Uncle Jim warned him just now, Jemiler still couldn't control his fear and curiosity.

I told myself secretly in my heart, just take one look, there should be nothing wrong with just one look.

Still thinking in my heart, my body has already taken action involuntarily, looking out from the gap between the female walls.

Be careful! Jemiler's head was thrown to the ground before it was fully extended.

Immediately afterwards, countless arrows whizzed towards, crossed the city wall, passed through the gaps in the female wall, and smashed down densely.

Including the entrance of the female wall where Jemiler was trying to peek out, seven or eight branches jumped through it.

If Jamil's head is still there, it is still unknown whether it can be completely avoided.

Most of these arrows are bone or stone arrowheads, which are obviously lacking in lethality, but if they are hit in the face, they still won't have any good fruit for him, even if they don't die, bloodshed will be inevitable.

Are you looking for death? Those furry savages are used to using arrow rain to intimidate and test. Didn't your captain tell you? Those who are killed by their arrow rain are fools like you. Why are you like you? There are so many idiots like this every year! Jim got up from Jemiler's body and rolled to the back of the battlements, reprimanding him with an angry face.

At the same time, he didn't forget to grab Jemiler and lead him to the dead end of the arrow.

I...I... Jemiler kept opening his mouth like a fish landed on the shore, but he didn't say anything for a long time. Not only was he frightened by the thrill just now, but he was also shocked by the scene outside the city that he had just spied. scared.

In the first glimpse just now, what left the deepest impression is the overwhelming rain of arrows, which seems to cover the entire sky. That kind of scene is really scary.

Below the city wall, there are countless Odin orcs riding war horses roaring across the not-so-large open space, sending arrows to the city wall.

Judging from their unusually thick arms and the speed at which they draw their bows, one can tell that these people are from the wolf family who are good at shooting.

The Odin orcs were not as simple as intimidating with the rain of arrows, they were still using this method to cover their actions under the city.

They are clearing roadblocks in preparation for a full-scale siege.

Because this was not a sudden attack on the city, all the soldiers in the entire Broken Vein Line of Defense knew the possibility that the Odin orcs would attack on a large scale in the next year.

Since then, they have started to prepare, and Hukoubao is no exception.

The outside of the city is full of traps, tunnels and simple horse-repelling posts.

If the Odin orcs wanted to attack the city walls, they had to remove these man-made obstacles first, which would greatly slow down their pace of attacking the city.

I just forgot, this sentence, Jemiler did not say it in the end, and thanked the veteran Jim: Thank you just now, uncle.

It's for the sake of that jug of wine. Jim snorted coldly, If you seek death again next time, I may not have a chance to pay attention to you.

No, no more! Jemiler laughed along, feeling the cold-faced and warm-hearted veteran, If I can survive this test, I will treat uncle to drink the best wine.

I hope there is such an opportunity. Jim was very indifferent to this, as if he had no confidence in Jamil.

Jamil didn't feel much, and asked cheekily: Uncle Jim, I have some questions, I don't know if I can ask them.

Your boy is quite curious. Jim squinted at him, threw another piece of beef jerky into his mouth, and chewed slowly, Those bastards want to attack, there is still a while, and they are idle. Just take a moment, let’s talk, what did you discover? It won’t be related to the appearance just now, right?”

Why didn't the general let the archers launch a counterattack? If they were allowed to clear the roadblocks, no matter how many roadblocks we had laid earlier, they would rush under the city wall in less than two days. Jemiler asked the biggest question in his heart.

If their archers took the opportunity to launch a counterattack, it would greatly slow down the opponent's speed of clearing roadblocks.

That's right, you're not so stupid. Jim said with a rare compliment, How can the generals not think of a problem that a recruit like you can think of? If it was the past, they would have done it a long time ago, but now, the arrow A little energy saving is a little bit.”

Why? Jamil was even more puzzled.

Idiot, of course it is for launching a counterattack! Now is the time when they are most careful and have the most rigorous protection. Even if they mobilize the archers, the damage is relatively limited. It doesn't make much sense except to delay it for a day or two. Instead, let us The archers are exposed to their attacks, if they launch a counterattack when they are fleeing, it will be powerful, and they will all be nailed in the back. Veteran Jim replied.

Although he was beaten to the end, his knowledge and contacts in high positions are still there, allowing him to know some things that ordinary soldiers don't know. The explanation just now is definitely not something that ordinary soldiers can have. With some exclusive high-level information.

Jamil frowned into a pimple, and the doubts in his heart became even worse, What Uncle Jim said is indeed correct, but all the premise is based on defeating those orcs. Now the number of Odin orcs is more than ten times that of ours. Whether it can be defended is a problem, let alone defeated, and no matter how many arrows are left, it will be useless.

Hey! Jim smiled mysteriously, Of course we have prepared a secret weapon, just wait and see, I hope that your jaw will not be shaken off by then.

The secret weapon that Jim talked about was naturally the black powder that had just been prepared in large quantities by the Duanmai defense line.

Due to the rush of time, Broken Blood Fort received a large amount of black powder from the leader of the Yong Ye Army.

But the experimental training is pitiful. Even those operators are mostly at the theoretical level. They only know that the new weapons they operate are powerful. They must be cautious and cautious. If they are not careful, they will blow themselves and their teammates into the sky. .

I don't know what kind of giant method it is, let alone low-level soldiers like Jemiler, who lack brains and can't imagine it.

When the black powder barrel was spinning and smashed into the siege team of the Odin orcs.

Not only the Odin orcs were blinded by the bombing, but even the Broken Pulse soldiers on the top of the city were stunned one by one. In the extremely noisy battlefield, there was a momentary loss of sound, and only those who were bombed to pieces were heard, but they had not died on the spot. The Odin orcs howled.

That desperate, piercing howl.

To the Odin orcs, they were like thorns, venting their extremely high morale, and they were in a panic.

For the soldiers with broken veins on the top of the city, it was a booster, which made their faces glow red and their morale greatly increased.

What's going on? What was that just now?

Who knows what happened just now?

The wrath of the gods, this is the wrath of the gods that caused the fall of the Miracle Peninsula. I didn't expect the power of this kind of thing to be greater than imagined. With Odin on top, how can we fight this battle?

The horse is startled, the horse is startled, calm the horse quickly.

Can't be appeased, run!

Withdraw! Withdraw! Withdraw!

No retreat, all attacks, Odin warriors are fearless.

Attack, attack, the retreater dies.

The Odin orcs below the city not only made a mess of their soldiers, but also their horses were startled by the violent explosion of the black powder keg, and they became a mess uncontrollably.

Fortunately, their siege soldiers got off their horses.

If they attacked on horseback, the situation would be even more chaotic.

The Odin orc's understanding of black powder is also at a high level.

Even if they want to convey this news to the Odin orcs below, the effect is not very satisfactory, just like before they have seen the power of black powder with their own eyes, they are also in a state of doubt, and they don't believe in this world at all. The existence of such a thing.

The only thing that can be done is to drive away the cannon fodder of the herdsmen, and as a vanguard, test the power of the black powder that breaks the line of defense, and prove it to the elites.

The leader of the Odin orc army who besieged Hukou Fort is obviously a member of the disbelieving ranks.

Driving the cannon fodder of the herdsmen to attack the city is not to obey the orders from the high-level, but the usual methods and habits of the Odin orcs.

The Odin orcs clustered together in a very dense formation.

The damage caused by the black powder keg is naturally the greatest.

Most of them were directly shocked by this wave of counterattacks, their morale fell to the bottom, and they were ready to retreat.

There were also a small number of people who were aroused with ferocity, screaming and rushing forward.

There are also some who only heard the sound, but did not see the terrifying lethality of the explosion of the black powder keg. They rushed forward, and collided with the soldiers who had withdrawn in front.

The gate of Hukoubao itself is not too big. When they hit each other, they immediately turned into a huge can of sardines, unable to advance or retreat.

Haha... The power of the black powder keg is indeed well-known. No wonder His Majesty is willing to spend a lot of money to buy a large amount from that Earl Sean. With this new type of weapon, even if the number of those humanoid beasts is several times larger, it will not be too late. What's the matter, they don't want to take the next step.

Long live Your Majesty, the broken pulse will last forever!

What are you waiting for? Keep reloading and kill them all! Kill these furry beasts!

Reload! Reload! Reload!

Kill them all! Kill them all! Kill them all!

Catapult, release!

put!

put!

The pulse-broken soldiers on the city wall screamed excitedly, and some even let out roars that they didn't understand, venting their excitement.

The trebuchet was rattling, the sound of the cowhide rope vibrating, and the whistling sound of the black powder keg piercing the air filled the entire city.

Then a cloud of flames, the flames of death exploded in the dense formation of Odin orcs.

Broken arms, broken legs, torn flesh and internal organs flew around.

Survivors around the fall had heads and faces.

It wasn't just a rain of blood, it was also mixed with little sparks.

These sparks are the natural nemesis of the Odin orcs. Many of them wear leather robes that have not been washed for many years. Once they are ignited, they can't be extinguished before they are burned out.

Soon outside the city, there were countless human-shaped torches.

The pain from the burning flames made these human-shaped torches run wildly while howling.

They are like drowning people. Once they hug the people around them, they will not let go, begging the other party to save themselves, no matter whether they can extinguish their own fire.

This caused more people to turn into human torches together.

That kind of tragedy and horror is even higher than the damage caused by the black powder keg.

It directly caused the morale of the Odin orcs to fall to the bottom. In this case, no matter how brave a person is, there is no way to summon up courage.

And the second wave of counterattacks from the broken line of defense arrived.

The first echelon, the attack angle is 60 degrees, let it go.

The second echelon, the attack angle is 50 degrees, let it go.

The third echelon, the attack angle is forty degrees, let it go.

Countless arrows drilled out of the Hukou Fortress and fell into the ranks of the Odin orcs.

These sharp arrows are thick, long and powerful.

Even some weak iron armor can be penetrated easily, not to mention the ordinary leather armor and leather robes of the Odin orcs. They are really accurate. Once they are shot in the vitals, they will probably die on the spot.

Andis Longbow.

Among the materials that the Broken Vein Defense Line imports to the Eternal Night Army's leading military, it ranks first.

The number of imports is even higher than that of black powder.
