Chapter 262 Fire, sharp, the big devil who suddenly appeared
In addition to the "Rafale-class" heavy ballista at the core, two of the ten war iron fists that serve as guards for each camp are fire golems equipped with "platform plug-ins". Their combat principles are basically based on the "red crystal gargoyle"
It is a claw-grip armor-piercing arrow launcher. However, the loading capacity of the War Iron Fist is obviously stronger than that of the flying unit Gargoyle, so the amount of ammunition in the launcher carried on its back is also several times higher. It is just because of the low position.
Moreover, the crossbow has insufficient kinetic energy when launched, and the strike range of War Iron Fist's "platform plug-in" is only fifty meters, making it difficult to form front-to-back and deep fire coverage. It is more suitable for dealing with anti-swarm attacks in situations where the enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered.
And behind the three fortresses in front is the main formation of Olympus.
Because the expansion was still in progress and the number of soldiers was relatively insufficient, after the three heavy troops were separated, the core battle formation at the back actually seemed a little thin. There was only less than one company of armored infantry as the front line defense line, and then there were ten
An artillery array composed of five "half-length" ballistae.
Similar to the "Rafale", the "half-length" ballistae is also one of the top products produced by Goblin. However, unlike the former which fires an over-long and overweight crossbow, the half-length ballistae mainly relies on upward firing of iron sand and copper pellets at an angle.
It is a small-shaped bullet, a fragmentary anti-personnel weapon that can carry out non-precision coverage strikes against the enemy. At the same time, because of its small size and relatively light weight, it can be carried on the shoulders of a human warrior for rapid movement. Therefore, in terms of mobility, the "half-length" crossbow
The gun is far superior to the Rafale.
From the appearance, each half-length crossbow is about one meter high, and an internal alloy spring crossbow is pulled by an external winch as the firing power. At the same time, the gun body bracket is also equipped with an iron wire ruler, so that the aiming hand can measure the angle and adjust the gun.
mouth to control the range of artillery fire. The farthest strike range reaches 150 meters. Moriarty equipped each artillery team with a combination of members including a goblin aimer, two human loaders and a winch operator.
.According to training standards, during the five-minute rapid fire period, the artillery crew should fire at least twenty times without interruption, which is equivalent to four rounds per minute. Such a density of concentrated bombardment is enough to cause a considerable degree of damage to the enemy group.
blow.
"Modi, do you really don't need us to come?"
Standing behind the half-length ballista formation, Guderian looked at Moriarty expectantly, and beside him, including the three Naga brothers, the magic archer, and the goblin mage, the high-level experts also looked at him.
They looked "doing nothing". Only the wolf cavalry companies on the two wings, led by Margaret, had their swords unsheathed and seemed ready to outflank and attack the demon army's flanks at any time.
"No need for the moment, just follow the established battle plan." Ignoring the silver-bearded dwarf's active request for a fight, Moriarty just calmly looked at the group of demons pressing in like dark clouds: "I just want to take a look at the adapted Olympus.
What is the combat strength of the Sri Lanka Army?"
"Okay. Anyway, you don't even need a crossbowman. Now White is probably nesting in the arrow tower with itchy palms." Guderian shrugged helplessly, then turned his head towards the towering arrow tower behind him, with a look on his face.
Smiling evilly.
While speaking, the demon army had already approached less than 200 meters away from the Olympus battle formation. At this distance, most humans and goblin warriors could clearly see the expression on the little demon's face, whether it was due to excitement or timidity.
of smelly sweat.
“Steady… steady… steady…”
As the commander of the gun squadron, Gustav stood high on the Rafale ballista in the center of the camp. Looking at the demons rushing towards him like a tide. Holding the railing in one hand and holding a sword in the other, he roared loudly, making his voice loud enough.
It was clearly heard by subordinates in the other two camps.
"Target. The demon warlord in the front position of the enemy group! The three ballistae aim together, and the horizontal ballistic assault crossbow guns are ready! Listen to my order!"
Suddenly, Gustav found his prey and roared immediately.
Following this, the goblin operators in the three Rafale ballistae immediately adjusted the angle of the launcher through telescopes and aiming cards to aim at the target. At the same time, the human auxiliary soldiers behind the ballistae desperately used a three-meter long ballista, about the thickness of a fist.
The huge dragon gun is loaded into the launcher, and the crossbow is fastened at the same time, ready to fire at any time.
However, it seems to be the first time to experience actual combat. The crew members of two of the three heavy crossbows actually made operational errors, which made it difficult for the dragon gun to complete loading. It made Gustav eager to rush over and delay these fighters.
Shot dead on the spot.
However, the demon army on the opposite side will not give the opponent any more time to adjust. At this time, they have already entered the standard attack line of 100 meters.
"aim!"
Ignoring the other two ballistas, who were still busy adjusting their machinery, Gustav suddenly raised his steel sword high, and then slashed it down at the demon warlord in the distance: "Let go!"
"Teng!"
It was as violent as an earthquake. In an exciting oscillation sound that made people feel stunned from the bottom of their hearts, the spring of the "Rafale-class" heavy-duty ballistae was instantly retracted. The super-strong string rope made of tungsten steel alloy twisted wires immediately hit hard.
After grazing the launcher made of iron wood, large bright red sparks were blown up, like a brilliant tail fire.
And with the huge pulling force of nearly two tons rebounding, the huge dragon gun whose tail end was firmly fastened to the string of the ballista instantly turned into a phantom, with a terrifying sharp roar like a sound barrier breaking, straight up.
The line went straight towards the high-level demon aiming at the far end of the card slot.
"what is that!?"
A hundred meters away, the demon warlord didn't even have time to see what was coming, and the huge dragon spear was already in front of him. However, due to the powerful strength and keen intuition of the high-level demon, the demon warlord couldn't avoid it and directly hit a demon abomination on the side.
He was pushed up and used as a shield.
"puff!"
As if bamboo chopsticks were inserted into overcooked fat meat, the dragon spear completely penetrated the nearly one-meter-thick demon abomination without any hindrance, and then continued to fly straight forward. The high-level demon only had time to use the "human shield"
"In such a short time, he veered a little to the left. Then, there was only a "click" sound, and the endless heavy dragon gun directly twisted the demon warlord's right hand and the entire arm.
It shattered and then flew forward for nearly a hundred meters, leaving an "equator" full of blood and broken limbs along the way, before finally landing heavily.
"Wow! So fierce!"
In the Olympus main formation, Guderian couldn't help but cheer loudly when he saw that the first shot of the Rafale Ballista wounded the high-level demon.
Once upon a time, the Silverbeard Dwarf was also attacked by a "Rafale" during the battle in the Yonville Valley. If White on the side hadn't tried his best to block him with his shield, maybe the Dwarf would have been able to survive in the Azurite City.
He was immortalized in the "Martyrs Cemetery". But today, seeing his own ballista bombarding the demons, Guderian finally got rid of this psychological shadow, and then sat back and watched the demon warlord "wipe to ashes" with peace of mind.
And just as the Rafale ballistae opened fire, the half-length ballistae positions at the rear also began to "roar" at the same time!
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
…
Fifteen groups of crossbows that were ready to go were like a symphony, one after another emitting heart-stopping roars. Large pieces of copper and iron projectiles flew high into the air like locusts, and then fell rapidly after passing through a towering upward parabola.
Easily crossing a distance of more than a hundred meters, it fell on the heads of the demon cluster like a heavy rain.
"ah!"
In the seamless conversion between kinetic energy and potential energy, all the metal projectiles have reached a terrifying speed that is enough to crush flesh and bones. In addition, fifteen groups of half-body ballistae are launched almost simultaneously to cover the battlefield indiscriminately, so that the vanguard of the demon army
The troops had no room to dodge and were directly bombarded by large swaths of projectiles. But in the blink of an eye, nearly a hundred little devils were hit by the "rain of artillery" and fell to the ground dead or injured, wailing endlessly.
At this moment, the other two Rafale ballistae were finally loaded, and they aimed at the dense follow-up part of the demon group and fired separately. As a result, two more "equators" paved with flesh and blood were slashed at the demons like knives.
He was "characterized" in the legion.
"Ah! Bastard!"
In just one encounter, the human battle formation on the opposite side used terrifying piercing dragon spears and large-area crossbows to inflict heavy damage on their own side. Including one arm and more than a hundred demon warriors, the demon warlord could be said to have been solidly beaten.
The sudden "fat beating" made his lungs explode with anger. But what made the high-level demon even more shocked and angry was that after just such a round of long-range attacks, the other little demons around him seemed to have a morale collapse and wanted to retreat.
There are no signs of escape. Especially those injured demon warriors, there are even fewer who insist on standing up and fighting again.
"Don't retreat! Don't stop! Keep charging!"
Seeing that his army was about to "standstill", the demon warlord who was filled with shame and anger could no longer bear it. He waved the "whip of death" wildly with his only remaining left hand, whipping the little demons that were standing still into pieces, and then
Then he roared and summoned one demon after another, apparently intending to fight the enemy to the death!
"Idiot! Are your brains clogged with maggots? Or do you want to kill all your subordinates before taking refuge with weak humans!?"
And just when the high-level demon was killing the little demon almost madly, suddenly, a cold voice sounded behind it. Immediately, the demon warlord who had been stunned by anger turned his head fiercely, and what he saw was
An ordinary little devil with an unremarkable appearance, except that one eye of this little devil is blind.
As if he had been offended in the most unforgivable way, the high-level demon looked at the "rude" low-level warrior in front of him with a grin, and raised the whip high without thinking. It wanted to tear this brave man into pieces.
But at this moment, a terrifying, chaotic, hot and terrifying aura suddenly emerged from the body of the one-eyed little devil. And while the demon warlord was stunned, a black flame suddenly burst out of his body like a storm.
The sky blew up, completely surrounding the little devil's body. In an instant, the little devil's originally low figure suddenly grew taller in the black flames, and his figure grew rapidly.
In just a moment, a three-meter tall demon with a strong body, wearing a black flame robe, and the iconic red "goat horns" towering on his forehead, appeared in front of the high-level demon.
In front of Legion, he also appeared in front of Moriarty and Olympus! (To be continued...)
