With a loud and piercing scream, the fire crows fighting as skirmishers suddenly exploded in all directions, choosing to stay away from the goblin convoy and circling outside the range of the artillery attack.
They no longer conduct large-scale charge attacks, but form attack teams in twos and threes. They continuously break into the vicinity of the convoy from all directions and continue to erode the energy mask with sticky fire liquid. Once the attack is completed, they quickly withdraw from the artillery attack area. , continue to circle around the outside and wait for opportunities.
The number of combat magic machines is not too large, and it is not enough to overturn the entire sky around the position. And once their artillery fire is dispersed, the lethality to the fire crows will not be that great.
"Huh?" Seeing this scene, Goblin Commander Pike was stunned and muttered to himself: "Is there a leader among these fire crows?"
Adult fire crows are mostly level 1 monsters. Although their strength is good, their intelligence level is obviously not comparable to that of humans. Only when a level 1 advanced or level 1 fire crow queen is born will the intelligence of the entire group be significantly improved. .
Only the higher-level Fire Crow King can have such wisdom, see through the shortcomings of the goblin convoy's inability to move quickly, and take the initiative to evacuate the battlefield.
Pike immediately picked up the binoculars and tried to find the Fire Crow King among the fire crows flying in the sky. Sure enough, following the direction of the cry just now, Pike saw a particularly powerful horse, which was huge in size. A circle of strange fire crows.
There is even a circle of golden feathers growing on its head, which looks like it is wearing a strange crown from a distance.
It seems that this guy has not only become the leader, but also has the tendency to evolve into a king!
"Mane, pay attention to the direction of XXX, the Fire Crow King at XXX. I want you to take the magical equipment team to knock it down! The convoy will provide you with fire protection..." As soon as he discovered the main target, Pike immediately ordered the battle instruction.
Hiding in the body of the combat magic weapon, Mane, the leader of the magic weapon combat team who was struggling to attack the fire crow, heard this and turned around, immediately locked onto the strange-looking fire crow through the tactical goggles and the hidden triangular window.
"Let's go, shoot down that ugly turkey!"
In its extremely arrogant and shrill laughter, 11 combat magic machines rushed out of the energy shield, firing fiercely while approaching the target area.
After hundreds of years of technological upgrading, today's combat magic machines are no longer comparable to the outdated steam machines of the past.
The standard equipment of the PG-5 type combat magic weapon is two Mark II magic energy cannons on the shoulders, two magic energy rapid-fire cannons on the chest, four-unit magic energy ray guns on the arms, and a weapon bag on the back. Sixteen rounds of goblin missiles...
Such powerful firepower makes the PG-5 combat magic machine completely comparable to a first-class wizard. At least on the frontal battlefield, the team of metal magic machines arranged in a dense battle formation can simply be called a battlefield sweeper.
Wherever they went, goblin missiles slowly rose into the sky and plunged into the fire crows with a piercing scream. The exploded warheads were filled with a large number of metal projectiles and arcane crystal fragments. It explodes continuously, and the scattered metal projectiles can completely overturn a large area of space.
Flying monsters like Fire Crows have excellent magic resistance, otherwise they would not be able to easily pass through space gaps. However, they lack the protection of hard scales on their bodies, so their physical defense is much inferior.
Therefore, faced with the overwhelming metal barrage, the fire crows were beaten, their feathers flew away, black blood spattered everywhere, and they fell into the sky with a shrill scream.
But more fire crows exploded angrily, rushing from all directions towards the battle magic equipment team with the energy shield protruding. Before the birds arrived, the fire liquid arrived first!
Puff, puff, puff, a series of fire liquid spurts towards the team of magical weapons.
"Open the shield...Open the shield...Remember to open the shield!" Mane's scream resounded through the communication crystal.
Each corner of the body of each combat magic machine flipped over, revealing diamond-shaped crystals, and under the infusion of magic energy, they quickly propped up energy shields of different shapes. The single-body protection of these energy shields may not be too great.
Strong, but when superimposed on each other, they have a larger protection angle and higher defensive toughness than the original version of the magic energy shield.
Taking advantage of the energy shield to block the spitting fire liquid from all directions, the combat magic equipment team fired wildly with all their might. Magic energy cannons and rapid-fire cannons sprayed out large or small energy fireballs, swooping down one by one.
The fire crows exploded into blood mist all over the sky. And the quadruple magic energy ray guns installed on their arms fired continuously, knocking the fire crows down from the sky with scorching rays or frost rays.
In the communication channel, the goblin mechanics' crazy roars and screams filled the air.
At this time, there is no need to bother with any tactical command. Blocking the enemy's attack and pouring all the artillery fire on the enemy is the only thing they can do!
The goblin convoys at the rear also moved their guns over, using intensive artillery salvos and missile attacks to clear the road ahead for them.
This is a cruel path paved with fire crow corpses and minced flesh and blood!
And Fire Crow's siege is not without any results. After breaking away from the energy shield, the protection of a single magic weapon cannot take care of every corner. Therefore, under the intensive siege of Crazy Fire Crow, one battle magic weapon after another
The energy shield is corroded or exploded, and then the solid metal body can only withstand the intrusion of the fire liquid.
So far in the battle, the magical equipment team has rushed 700 meters and penetrated deep into the fire crows, killing and injuring nearly three hundred fire crows. They also damaged two magical equipment themselves.
The metal body was burned through by the fire liquid, causing a big explosion before falling down. Naturally, the goblin mechanic inside had no reason to survive.
At this moment, there are only less than two hundred fire crows left in the originally huge group of fire crows.
The Fire Crow King was obviously extremely angry and led his own bodyguards to attack the magical weapon team.
The fire liquid they sprayed was obviously more powerful and more erosive than ordinary fire crows. Two more magical machines were burned through the armor, and then the goblin mechanic was hit by a fire liquid arrow from the fire crow king.
Nailed in the cockpit.
However, faced with the joint strangulation of the goblin convoy and the magical equipment squad, the Fire Crow King obviously could not find more opportunities to attack. After all, the Fire Crow's fire breath attack range was only a hundred meters, while the attack range of the magical equipment team covered
00 meters to 700 meters.
If you include goblin missiles, the furthest attack range reaches 1,500 meters!
Such a huge disparity meant that the Fire Crows could only use their flesh and blood to resist the attacks of artillery and energy rays. In the end, the Fire Crows were completely defeated!
Finally, the Fire Crow King admitted defeat, and withdrew from the battlefield westward with more than thirty remaining Fire Crows, screaming.
In order to prevent the goblin convoy from running wild and causing disaster to the goblin town, the goblin convoy could only follow closely behind them and pursue them wildly. The two sides fought and retreated all the way away.
And scenes like this and the same scenes appear one after another in every corner of the goblin plane.
Fortunately, the goblin plane is a typical low-magic plane. Even if the demon tide comes, the plane environment is still so repellent to magic power. Therefore, overly powerful monsters or aberrations simply do not bother to visit here. Their
The target is more on those higher planes.
In addition, the original number of monsters in the goblin plane cannot form a large scale, and it is impossible to cause a too strong impact on the goblins who have all turned into magic weapons.
Therefore, since the outbreak of the magic tide, except for sporadic goblin towns that suffered heavy losses due to attacks by strange monsters, large-scale casualties are still rare!
However, not all planes are as 'lucky' as the goblin plane.
Almost all material planes are facing internal and external attacks due to the impact of the demonic tide.
There were invasions of star beasts, disaster creatures and strange monsters from outside, and the attack of beasts with the trend of magical creatures inside... For a time, all the people in power and the ruling class were overwhelmed and extremely busy.
No matter how strict they are on guard, they can't stop the intrusion of monsters from other worlds, let alone the herds of beasts pouring out of the ancient forest. Therefore, some incompetent people in power can only choose to abandon some civilians and territories, and give up the only things they have in their hands.
A little strength was gathered to protect his estate and property.
As for those abandoned territories and civilians, they can only ask for their own blessings!
After all, they lack the protection of extraordinary power. Even if a level 1 monster breaks in, it can cause them unimaginable terrible disasters.
Among these many small and medium-sized planes, many intelligent races that originally occupied a dominant position gave their enemies the opportunity to rise due to their mistakes in dealing with the demonic tide. As a result, internal 'revolutions' broke out in many planes and they achieved dominance.
Class transformation.
But no matter how hard they tried to stabilize the plane environment, a huge turmoil and chaos that swept all planes still broke out!
Wise men and scholars from many planes have unanimously called this chaotic and turbulent era the 'Dark Age'. What makes them feel despair and grief is that, based on past experience, this 'Dark Age' may last for hundreds of years.
…
Hundreds of years... For most plane creatures, this is already their entire life!
…………
When darkness falls, when there is pain, there is happiness!
At this moment, the people living in the Ellowes area feel particularly happy.
After the outbreak of the demonic tide, rumors of invasion by monsters and star beasts spread throughout the central continent. In some areas, there were even horrifying incidents where entire villages and towns were swallowed up by strange monsters.
The more I heard such rumors, the more they highlighted the tranquility of the Ellowes area.
After all, this is the territory of the Crimson Family, and it has also become the core area in the middle of the target continent. Therefore, there are many more top wizards gathered here than elsewhere.
Their existence is usually inconspicuous, but when a real crisis strikes, it becomes extremely precious. (To be continued)
