And just when a group of inner realm gods were marveling, the dark clouds not far away had almost gathered.
Just because more than a thousand talented girls were dispatched this time, the dark clouds in the sky covered a radius of about one mile.
Boom! Boom!
With the constant roaring in the sky, the allied forces of the Kingdom of God on the ground also showed fearful expressions.
Compared to the Flame Legion soldiers on the wall in front, it is obviously 'Tianwei' who is more frightening.
After all, these soldiers of the Legion of Gods have suffered losses in the face of lightning storms not once or twice.
Click! Click!
But now they wanted to react, but it was already too late.
With a series of penetrating click sounds, the thigh-thick lightning had already landed on the ground.
Ahhhh!
In an instant, wails and screams were heard from the alliance of gods.
Just because there was no retreat horn sound from the rear, these soldiers of the Divine Legion could only stay in place and tremble, not daring to retreat towards the rear.
And most of the indomitable momentum they had before was instantly dispelled. The soldiers under the city wall only looked up to see if the lightning would fall, and had no time to climb towards the wooden ladder in front.
In this way, the pressure originally placed on the Flame Legion on the wooden wall was instantly reduced a lot.
"Amazing, really amazing. No wonder a mortal from the Io continent can offend four legions of gods."
"Just these more than a thousand talented girls can really play an unparalleled role in the war!"
"Yes, when the lightning strikes, even the great knights must be careful, otherwise they will be seriously injured even if they are hit a few more times. Those sky knights are even worse. They will be seriously injured as long as they are hit once."
"Oh, it's such a pity that the goddess of talent has fallen and has not been resurrected. If the goddess of talent is resurrected, the gods will definitely pay a lot of money to cultivate a daughter of talent after seeing that they can still fight like this!"
"Yeah, why didn't the gods think that they could use gifted girls to fight like this? This is much more powerful than a marksman or a swordsman!"
The inner domain envoys not far away were brightened when they saw such a fighting method, because even when the goddess of talent was there, the gods never thought that they could fight like this.
Of course, this is also related to the powerful power of the gods at that time.
Not only are the gods themselves powerful, but their envoys are also powerful.
In this way, the army in the Kingdom of God was weakened a lot.
Unlike now, although the gods have been resurrected and reborn, their strength has not yet reached its peak.
To be honest, some of the divine envoys back then were stronger than the gods today.
In this way, the gods now mostly rely on the legions of gods when fighting.
Of course, this also includes the reason why the gods now want to reach the top and break through to exist like the creation gods.
If you commit too many crimes with your own hands, you will be suppressed by the will of the Creator God in advance, so that the gods will not dare to kill wantonly.
Otherwise, just one god would be enough to sweep away the legionnaires.
"The boy did use this trick again. God of Ice, didn't you say before that you thought of a way to deal with it? What is it? Use it quickly, otherwise our first wave of attacks will have to be maintained.
I can’t go down anymore!”
Compared with the admiration and excitement of the inner realm envoys who were watching the battle, the God of Waves and other gods were a little helpless.
Now that they are attacking Nalant, what they fear most is Nalant's lightning army.
However, the Ice Legion said before that he had thought of a way to deal with it, and everyone had greater confidence in this war.
Of course, in fact, even if there is no other way, they will carry out this siege despite losses.
But if casualties can be reduced, then naturally the fewer casualties the better.
"God of Waves, don't worry. I said there is a way to deal with it, and there will be a way to deal with it. My subordinates have already started to take action!"
As he said that, the Ice Legion pointed to the front of his team.
Tens of thousands of soldiers who had taken off their armor were seen rushing out of the formation and heading towards the battlefield ahead.
And many of these soldiers were carrying slender tree trunks.
"Tree trunks? Is this useful?" The God of Wind and others looked at the God of Ice, some wondering how tree trunks could defend against Nalant's lightning army.
The Ice God smiled and said: "Speaking of which, this method was inspired by a soldier in my legion. You will know it later!"
Immediately, several gods stopped talking, but waited to see how the ice god responded to Nalant's lightning.
At this time, Nalant, who was on the top of the mountain, also saw tens of thousands of soldiers with armor removed who suddenly rushed out from the Ice Legion.
"Do these guys know how to draw thunder?"
As a time traveler, Narant knows more about the application of electricity than anyone else in this world.
In this way, when he saw the slender wooden poles, he instantly guessed a possibility.
At that moment, he also frowned.
Immediately, Nalant immediately found Vivian and gave some instructions beside Vivian.
Vivian nodded after hearing this, and then quickly headed towards the remaining Lightning Legion.
At this time, the tens of thousands of Ice Legion soldiers below had arrived on the battlefield.
Just as Nalant thought, after these soldiers arrived at the battlefield, they separated into teams of ten.
Then thousands of wooden poles were erected on the battlefield in a short period of time.
The height of the wooden pole is about fifteen or six meters.
After the tree trunk was erected, a bare-chested Ice Legion soldier quickly climbed toward the top of the wooden pole carrying a chain.
During this process, as the chain rose, the lightning falling from the sky hit these soldiers first.
With a roar, a soldier fell from the wooden pole.
However, once this soldier fell, the next soldier would soon make the same attempt.
In this way, the density of lightning was not that great after all, and there was a gap in time. After losing hundreds of people, all the chains were finally hung on the top of the wooden pole.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After the chains were hung on the tall wooden poles, the other ends of the chains were buried directly in the pit below.
Moreover, the three meters around the pit were separated by these soldiers.
And after these soldiers finished everything, a magical scene appeared.
The lightning in the sky was still crackling, but now everyone noticed.
Most of the lightning that fell hit the top of the wooden pole.
Then it spread directly to the earth along the iron chains.
When lightning spreads on the chain, everyone can see it with the naked eye, because when the huge energy of lightning passes through the chain, it will emit a crackling and dazzling white light.
As the lightning bolts were absorbed by the chains, very few lightning bolts could directly hit the soldiers on the ground.
Only a few unlucky ones get hit occasionally.
Compared with the previous continuous attrition, the number of soldiers hit by lightning at this time was simply negligible, even less than the number of soldiers shot to death by archers.
"Hey, look, look, what's going on? Why don't those lightnings stop attacking the soldiers of the Legion of Gods?"
"Yes, those lightning bolts hit the wooden pole, and finally disappeared after falling to the ground!"
"We don't know either. We didn't expect that the gods like the God of Waves would have a way to deal with it. This is really strange!"
With the changes on the battlefield, the situation naturally attracted the attention of all parties immediately.
The inner domain envoys who had been leisurely watching the battle immediately showed expressions of surprise, quite surprised by the response of the coalition of gods.
After all, no one could figure out why those wooden poles could attract lightning.
Of course, they were not the only ones who were surprised. The God of Waves, God of Wind, and God of War were even more surprised than them at this time.
After all, they were the ones who suffered the most severe beatings from the Nalant Lightning Legion.
If it weren't for the Lightning Legion, they wouldn't have taken over the entire Flame Continent until now, and each would have lost at least hundreds of thousands of soldiers as a result.
“It really works!”
"Haha, God of Ice, how did you come up with this idea? In this way, wouldn't we no longer be afraid of Nalant's Lightning Legion from tonight on?"
"Yeah, that damn boy, look how arrogant he is now!"
The God of Waves and others laughed heartily while looking at the God of Ice.
To be honest, although they now know how to deal with Nalant's Lightning Army, they don't understand the reasons.
So everyone was curious and asked the Ice God why.
After all, after knowing the reason, they will be better able to deal with Nalant's lightning army in the future.
The Ice God seemed quite proud at this moment, and did not hide it at the moment.
Of course, the Ice God only told how he came up with this method, but did not explain the real relationship. After all, even he himself did not understand it.
Just listen to the Ice God say: "This method was actually suggested by a soldier of my legion."
"My soldier said that he had seen lightning falling on a stormy day before. It was on a mountain peak."
"Because there was an iron pole erected on the mountain peak for hanging flags. As a result, on the day of the storm, he saw with his own eyes that most of the lightning nearby fell on the iron pole."
"Later on, he would pay attention to that iron pole every time there was a storm. As a result, every time lightning struck, it would hit that iron pole first."
"From this, he felt that iron blocks at high places were more likely to be targeted by lightning."
"A few days ago, the soldier told the story again, and it happened to be heard by the captain of my legion. The legion captain reported it to the legion commander."
"And the legion commander told me about this. Although I'm not 100% sure it will work, I think I can give it a try."
"I didn't expect the effect to be so good, now you know it!"
"So that's it. If you encounter lightning in the future, you only need to hang the iron chain at a high place to attract lightning!"
After hearing this, the eyes of all the gods lit up. They finally understood that the most important factor in attracting lightning is height, followed by chains!
And just as the gods were speaking, the coalition of gods in front launched a fierce attack again because there was no threat of lightning.
Looking at this offensive, Nalant's army would definitely not be able to last an hour at this first line of defense.
"Lord Narant, all our lightning was attracted away by the enemy's erected wooden poles. This resulted in the enemy losing the threat of lightning, and their attack became fierce again!"
And this is also true. Nalant quickly received an urgent report from the commander of the Acropolis.
Because they lost the assistance of lightning, the Flame Legion once again suffered tremendous pressure.
If we don't think of anything else, I'm afraid the first line of defense will be breached soon.
Nalant's face was calm after hearing this, and he said to the commander of Nuuk City in front of him: "Don't be anxious, you just have to fight."
"If the first line of defense really cannot be defended, then retreat to the second line of defense immediately!"
"This... Sir, is there no other way? How about you send more Lightning Legions to the defense line?"
When the leader of Nuk City heard this, he was a little unwilling.
They only have five lines of defense on this mountain, but if one is missing, they will be in greater danger.
After all, if all five lines of defense are breached, it means that they will be in a desperate situation and there will be no place to escape.
"Don't worry, I'll find a way to deal with them later, but that's on the second line of defense."
"So the current task of your first line of defense is to consume the enemy's vitality as much as possible."
"Yes, Lord Narante!"
Hearing what Nalant said, the leader of Nanuk City finally felt relieved.
After answering, he immediately headed towards the front line.
Not long after, Vivian returned to Nalant.
"Sir, according to your instructions, we have dug a pit in front of the second line of defense, enough for the water to reach the knees."
"Very good, then let's send a thousand more girls to fight the rainstorm!" Nalant nodded.
"Yes, sir!"
Immediately, Vivian went to take care of things again.
And soon, Vivian arranged for the second batch of girls to start summoning heavy rain.
As the heavy rain fell, water soon began to accumulate between the first line of defense and the second line of defense.
Because the ground was specially dug outside this second line of defense, the water accumulated deeper and deeper, and finally almost reached the knee level.
Of course, in order to prevent the accumulated water from being absorbed by the land later, the rain did not stop.
Narant's request is that the earth must be saturated with water so that the accumulated water can be retained as long as possible.
About an hour later, the rain continued.
However, the first line of defense finally showed signs of collapse.
As more and more soldiers of the Alliance of Gods rushed onto the wall, the Fire Legion soldiers began to suffer a large number of casualties.
When Nalant saw this, he did not hesitate and immediately said to the messenger beside him: "Order, the first line of defense, retreat!"
"Yes, sir!"
Woohoo!
As the trumpet sounded, the commander of the Acropolis on the first line of defense immediately received the notice.
"Retreat, everyone retreat to the second line of defense!"
Following the shouts, tens of thousands of Flame Legion soldiers began to retreat slowly and orderly.
"Haha, we retreated. That guy couldn't stand it any longer. The first line of defense was captured by us!"
"Yeah, let's see if that kid still dares to be arrogant now. Without the lightning attack, his defense is nothing compared to our god's army!"
