Chapter 2560 The monster is coming!
Not long after, an unsettling sound came from the dense forest ahead.
"Brothers, the monster is coming!"
There is no need for special reminder at all. The believers already know that the monster is coming. On the top fighting platform, the artillery has already roared.
The terrain of Tianxu City is quite high, and several specially-made rune cannons can send the cannonballs an extremely long distance.
The shells roared out one after another, making people subconsciously cover their ears. They had to wait for a while before hearing the loud noise coming from the distant forest.
This specially made weapon can bomb monsters in the distance. It just needs guidance when attacking, otherwise it will just waste ammunition.
The one tasked with guiding is naturally the rune airship. It is currently hanging high in the sky, always keeping pace with the tide of monsters.
Through this method, believers can intuitively understand the location of monsters and be ready to attack and fight in time.
The monsters are traveling very fast. Although there are rune artillery bombardments and interceptions, the killing effect on the monsters is not obvious.
After all, the firepower density is not enough. If thousands of guns are fired in unison, the entire forest can be overturned.
You can’t force anything. It’s not easy to get to this point.
If Tang Zhen had not controlled Tianxu City, but had been ruled by the original city lord, it would have been in chaos.
The other party was far from comparable to Tang Zhen in terms of experience, ability, and understanding of the disaster.
The constant sound of cannons made the residents of Tianxu City more and more nervous. They looked ahead in silence, waiting for the order to attack.
Just as everyone was staring at the sky, several fireballs suddenly popped up in the forest and headed straight for the rune airship.
The fireballs were so fast and furious that the rune airship was unable to dodge and was continuously hit on vital parts by the fireballs.
The damaged rune airship was unable to fly stably and tried to return, dragging black smoke. As a result, it fell from the sky before it flew very far.
The residents of Tianxu City saw this and exclaimed in surprise, with expressions of regret and worry on their faces.
Everyone knows what will happen if you fall from a high altitude, and the possibility of a patrol member surviving is extremely slim.
Even if you manage to escape by chance, you will still have to face the monsters that follow closely. It is definitely a miracle that you can come back alive.
This was a good thing done by the hostile monks. They took action at the critical moment and directly destroyed a rune airship.
Tang Zhen watched the thick smoke rising from the forest with an expressionless face, turned around and issued an order, and the artillery locked onto the area where the fireball rose.
At the same time, replace the cannonballs with strong burning effects to ignite the forest in that area to kill enemies and block monsters.
At this time, Tang Zhen had made up his mind. As long as the enemy dared to appear in front of him, he would use all his firepower to entertain him.
Compared to those monsters, these enemies hiding in the forest are actually more dangerous and annoying.
If he had a choice, Tang Zhen would give priority to killing them, even if he had to pay a certain price.
As the artillery roared, clouds of thick smoke began to rise in the distant forest, and the flames continued to spread in all directions.
The existence of the forest has more advantages than disadvantages, but Tang Zhen would rather destroy it than provide convenience to the enemy.
In fact, Tang Zhen knew very well that this kind of retaliatory attack was of no use. The enemy must have moved quickly after destroying the rune airship.
The main purpose of firing artillery and bombing was to let the residents of Tianxu City see that someone remembered their sacrifice and dedication.
At this moment, Tang Zhen could faintly hear the roar of the monster and even smell a faint fishy smell. Five minutes, ten minutes... the monster finally approached Tianxu City.
In the forest beside the river, countless black shadows suddenly appeared. They kept howling in excitement across the Tianxu Lake full of flowers.
These monsters wear tattered clothes and hold various weapons in their hands. They have long been changed beyond recognition due to the invasion of demonic energy.
After becoming monsters, their kindred spirits were included in the diet. Although their wisdom was still there, they had become distorted.
Greedyly sniffing the smell of food coming from Tianxu City, the monsters could no longer restrain their desires and rushed forward with roars.
Countless monsters swarmed onto the long bridge, squeezing the bridge deck with water. Some monsters rushed into the lake, trying to get closer to Tianxu City by swimming.
The advantages of Tianxu City are revealed. Unless the monster has wings, it cannot be easily relied on.
Without Tang Zhen’s command at all, the artillery had already locked onto the long bridge and the lakeside forest, making continuous roaring sounds.
The solid cannonballs fell on the bridge, as if they were smashed into mud. A group of monsters were smashed into rotten flesh, but they were quickly replaced by new monsters.
There are a lot of cannonballs, but the number of monsters is even greater. Their speed is extremely fast, and they have rushed four to five hundred meters in the blink of an eye.
Facing the broken bridge that was blown up, the monsters jumped up one after another. Some fell into the lake halfway, and some monsters successfully jumped to the opposite bridge.
This scene of jumping and running makes people's scalp numb and a strong sense of tension rises in their hearts.
Faced with the swarming monsters, the residents of Tianxu City had no time to think about anything else. They just kept firing to block the monsters as much as possible.
Due to limited time, Tianxu City could only produce more than a hundred artillery pieces. Facing the torrent of monsters, it was still somewhat inadequate.
When the monster finally reached the range of the firearm, a sound like popping beans appeared, making the rumbling sound of the cannon no longer monotonous.
The gunmen, who had been waiting for a long time, gritted their teeth and pulled the trigger, wishing that they could replace the bullet and penetrate the monster's body fiercely.
The total number of firearms produced overtime was about two thousand. Although the rate of fire and accuracy were average, they were more than enough to block the bridge deck.
Dense projectiles fell on the bridge, knocking the monsters to the ground in pieces. Unfortunately, they could not kill them with one hit.
Whether it is defensive ability or vitality, these monsters are far superior to ordinary people. Unless a shot hits the vital point, the monster cannot be killed at all.
However, after being injured, the monster's actions will definitely be affected, and its movement speed will be greatly reduced.
In addition to artillery and firearms, weapons such as bows, crossbows, javelins and stones continued to fall like rain.
Many monsters had their heads smashed with blood and were filled with arrows like hedgehogs, constantly making angry roars.
Weapons such as bows and arrows have limited damage to targets wearing armor. Some monsters are still vigorous even if they are hit by dozens of arrows.
Unknowingly, the monster was getting closer and closer to Tianxu City. When looking down from a high place, monsters were everywhere.
They launched an attack without fear of death, and the residents of Tianxu City tried their best to intercept it. Perhaps it was the stimulation of gunpowder smoke and blood.
Seeing that the monsters only needed to cross another broken bridge to be defeated. Arriving at the bottom of Tianxu City, Tang Zhen gave the order again to spray a substance similar to kerosene towards the broken bridge.
This is a specially collected and formulated oil. Once it is contaminated on the body, it will be as difficult to remove as glue.
Groups of monsters huddled together, their heads and faces covered in fuel. As a torch fell, blazing flames immediately shot up into the sky.
The monster was burned until it screamed like a ghost, and the disgusting smell of burning made the residents of Tianxu City vomit again and again.
