Chapter 53: The Long Night
Carter and Arisianar quickly came to the wall.
Along the way, we kept knocking down boulders.
"Over there!"
The sentinel immediately gave up his position when he saw Arisianar coming up, and pointed out the location of the Cyclops.
"Damn blasphemous creature!"
After confirming the enemy's position, Arisianar, the 'human ballista', opened his magic bow and fired several arrows at a speed that Carter could barely see clearly in his normal state.
"Bounce! Bounce! Bounce!"
Carter, who was standing aside, heard the sound of Arisianar firing his bow, and couldn't help but complain in his heart.
[Where is this bow? It is clearly a ballista]
Ordinary arrows Aris can shoot at a speed of one per second, and six arrows fly out in just a few seconds.
Aris Anar's specially made arrow crossed a distance of more than 400 meters, and still carried huge kinetic energy when it hit the Cyclops who was throwing stones.
"Poof!"
"roar……"
The arrow hit their arms accurately, and the stones in their hands fell to the ground in pain.
Although the arrows shot by Aris Anar look normal, the shape of the arrows is quite vicious. They are all hunting arrows made of fine steel, with several barbs extending behind the arrows.
The Cyclops that was shot could ignore ordinary arrows, but this kind of arrow, which was specially designed to deal with large animals, not only caused huge wounds to them, but also scratched their muscles.
After pulling out the arrow, he was bleeding profusely. But thanks to their terrifying recovery ability, he recovered quickly.
But being targeted by Aris Anar, they enjoyed "meticulous" care in the ensuing battle.
"Bounce! Bounce! Bounce!"
The magic bow in Aris Anar's hand kept making a huge sound of loose strings, and continuous arrows kept shooting at the Cyclops.
They were unable to change their hands at all, and could only barely cover their heads with their arms to prevent damage to their heads.
"kill!!!"
"roar!!"
But other chaotic creatures did not stop.
They took advantage of the opportunity when the defenders of the Eagle Legion were suppressed by throwing stones, and had already advanced to a fairly close distance. The prepared siege ladder seemed to be set up on the wooden wall at the next moment.
Minotaur, big horned beast, horned beast, mutated beast.
A large number of fallen creatures shouted all kinds of obscenities, and the weapons in their hands were ready to drink blood.
"Distance 80 meters! Volley!"
"Buzz buzz!"
At the critical moment, the archers of the two companies finally arrived.
More than two hundred strong bows began to unleash their own fury.
As soon as the first wave of arrows was fired, it hit its target the next second.
Dozens of unarmored beastmen were instantly hit by thick arrows and fell to the ground. Even the elites wearing armor were seriously injured by the shots. It was just that the weakened pain caused them to ignore the wounds and continue to charge.
"Buzz buzz!"
The chaotic creatures once again enjoyed the feeling of "rain of arrows".
"Poof!"
The second round of volleys that followed immediately hit dozens more chaotic creatures.
"kill!!!"
The massive losses did not stop the Chaos troops, but more troops emerged from all directions to join the battle to besiege the Eagle Legion.
"Oops! They are launching a general attack!!"
Arisianar's face turned pale immediately when he realized that he had been tricked by his opponent.
"Pass my order! Everyone get into combat positions immediately! Hold on to the camp!"
"yes!"
However, most of the Eagle Legion soldiers were already in place without Aris Anar's order.
"Did they concentrate all their forces? Damn it!"
The makeshift camp was too crude. It was just a square camp. The so-called fence was just a simple wooden wall made of logs, and no one could even stand on it.
Except for a few arrow towers where people can stand and shoot arrows in the entire camp, everyone else can only passively wait for the beastmen to attack, and they can choose the direction of attack at will.
The Cyclops in the distance had stopped attacking at this time and began to move their positions. Being targeted by Arisianar, they were unable to play their role and began to shift positions under the command of the Beast King.
They quickly walked out of the range of the light arrow and disappeared into the darkness.
"Damn it! Temporarily build a platform in the center of the camp and build fortifications around this platform! We need to shrink the front!"
"Right away! Legion Commander!"
As soon as the order was given, the first group of beastmen set up ladders on the wall and began to climb.
"jump!"
After the sound of a string loosening, the big horned beast more than a hundred meters away was shot through the head by an arrow from Aris, and its body fell down weakly.
"Carter, I leave this to you! I have to contact the reinforcements from the rear!"
"Yes! Leave it to me!"
Carter, who had already exposed his strength, accepted the task without much hesitation.
Seeing Arisianar leave, Carter raised his halberd and looked at the densely packed chaos creatures ahead that occupied his entire field of vision.
"I'm afraid we're going to have a bloody battle tonight..."
After muttering something softly, Carter picked up his halberd and joined the battle.
In order to facilitate the battle, he took off the obstructive 'bullet' helmet and restored his vision to normal.
As soon as Carter jumped off the arrow tower and walked to the door, a huge crash shook the entire door.
Within a few moments, a crack appeared.
The chaotic creature that was hitting the wall was too strong, and even if this simple wooden door was specially reinforced by the elves, it would still be useless.
As soon as the beasts who climbed up the stairs showed their heads, they were shot into the eye sockets with an arrow from the archer who had been waiting for a long time.
But the beastmen emerged faster.
"roar!!"
These creatures that were mutated from wild beasts jumped over the wall holding various crudely made axes.
"Squad! Stab!"
What greets them is a 'wall' made of steel.
"Poof!"
Facing several spears at the same time, the beastman who had just landed was unable to resist. After blocking two of them, three more pierced its body's weak points fiercely.
However, reinforcements from behind continued to cross the wall and join in.
Soon a large number of beastmen jumped down like dumplings.
"Roar! Blood sacrifice to the blood god! Skull sacrifice to the skull seat!!"
The first thing they did after rushing down was to hit the shield wall and start fighting with the elves.
The ax made a loud noise when colliding with it.
The Eagle Legion soldiers formed a formation and cooperated with each other to suppress the beastmen until they could only fight against the wall. They lost the space to dodge and had to use their bodies to resist the attacks of the elven spears.
"roar!!"
Many chaotic creatures who were squeezed against the wall and unable to move let out angry screams. In order to vent their anger, they even smashed their weapons on the back of the head of their companions in front, just so that they could squeeze in front and fight.
After a while, dozens of people fell while the two sides were fighting each other at the foot of the wall.
It's just that the elves relied on their powerful formation to suffer more casualties, while the beastmen lost more than twenty people in just a short while.
"boom!"
With a loud bang, the door was knocked open by a beastman holding a log.
"kill!!!"
The beastmen who filed in opened their smelly mouths one after another and were about to start killing.
"call!"
But what came oncoming was not glory and killing, but a huge fireball.
The tauren who rushed forward was immediately hit by the fireball, and then the fireball exploded, and the high-temperature flames immediately affected several beastmen behind it.
"Ahhhhhh!!!"
Chapter completed!
