The Journey of the Rainbow Dragon
Chapter 56 The anxious battle situation
"Second group of guards, relay shooting!"
"The mages who have run out of magic power retreat behind the wall and meditate to recover!"
The guards and apprentices took turns firing in an orderly manner to ensure that the firepower advantage was maximized.
The guard captain's urgent voice echoed on the city wall.
At this time, the mayor was concentrating on releasing high-level magic and had no time to care about other things.
He has handed over all combat command to the guard captain.
As companions who grew up together, one of them turned to Dou Qi and the other chose magic.
They once formed a small mercenary group to explore the outside world.
It wasn't until he met her that he disbanded his mercenary group, returned to the town where he was born and raised, and returned to his normal life.
Now in their forties, they still have a tacit understanding of each other.
Time has changed their appearance, but it has not changed their hearts.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
[Fireball], [Ice Pick], [Ground Thorn].
Under the city wall, the monsters were hitting each other crazily with their bodies, and some monsters that could cast spells released their own magic towards the city wall.
The entire city wall was shaking, as if it was about to collapse in the next moment.
Among the large number of monsters, the [Third-level monster, Iron-Eating Elephant] poses the greatest threat to the city wall.
Relying on his huge body, he took the lead and charged towards the city gate.
The guards' bows and arrows and the magic apprentice's magic can only produce a few sparks when they fall on it, but they cannot break the iron-eating elephant's defense at all.
Only the mayor's and crossbow's attacks can damage it, but that's all.
Its size is so huge that even a small injury cannot stop him from moving forward.
The muddy swamp area under the city wall has been filled with the corpses of monsters, and the iron elephant crossed this area in three steps.
The long ivory was already aimed at the wooden city gate in front, and slammed into it!
"boom!"
The sound of the collision of flesh and wood caused the nearby soldiers to have tinnitus.
A small piece of ivory had passed through the city gate and was only twenty centimeters away from the eyeball of a guard holding a shield behind the gate!
Behind the city gate, twenty fully armed guards had already formed a formation and were standing guard.
Their mission is to stop the monsters who want to enter the city after the city gate is destroyed.
The shield guard watched Ivory leave in front of him with a horrified look. He could already see the crazy monsters outside through the hole in the city gate.
"Can we really stop it?"
He couldn't help but ask questions in his heart.
All the guards who saw that scene had this thought in their hearts, but none of them backed away.
————
At this moment in Windmill Town.
There was a huge crowd, and everyone was fleeing here in a hurry, hoping to leave through the west gate on the other side.
In fact, when they first learned that the beast tide was coming, most people in the town did not know how terrible it was, and many people still did not go home with a lucky mentality.
Later, through the persuasion of the old people in the town, I slowly got the information, and then the panic and crowding began.
"Powerful magicians and mercenaries, I am Tariq, the guard of Windmill Town!"
"Please all capable professionals gather here. The battle situation with the beast tide on the east city wall is very fierce right now. We need your help!"
Tariq, wearing iron armor, stood in the panic and shouted loudly, hoping to find help.
Crowds of people came and passed him from all directions.
They even tried to avoid physical contact with Tariq.
In this dark crowd, a strange circle appeared.
Tariq stood alone in the center, and the one meter around him seemed to be a restricted area for humans, and everyone avoided him.
Tariq repeated the words of rescue over and over again, but no one responded to him.
"Don't run away! We can defeat them! As long as everyone..."
Tariq grabbed the arm of a mercenary passing by, but was ruthlessly pushed to the ground.
"Go away, don't hold me back even if you don't want to!"
The mercenary glanced at Tariq with disgust, and then continued to flee towards the west gate.
At this time, any order and rules will lose their meaning. What can play a role is the power of those who have a way to deal with the crisis.
However, the granting of this kind of power at such a moment shows its fragility and vulnerability in human nature.
Drastic changes in fate often show its humor in this way: No matter how noble, detached, indifferent or worldly you are, once you encounter drastic changes, your original humanity will inevitably be squeezed, and you will never be able to avoid it. The depths of your soul come out naturally, and this is who you are.
When some people are guaranteed life, their requirements go far beyond just survival, and material becomes their second need; and sometimes, this need is more important than others.
Tariq collapsed on the ground, looking desperately at the crowd of people in front of him.
"Why, no one is willing to help, not even one person"
Thinking of the mayor and the guards who were still fighting bloody battles at the front line of the beast tide, there was a sharp contrast with the humans running for their lives in front of them.
An abyss of despair enveloped Tariq.
"do not go!"
"Whether it's a god or a demon"
"No matter what price it costs me!"
"Don't go."
Tariq weakly looked up at the sun in the sky.
"Who comes.
Save us”
"伱"
"Do you still need assistance?"
A girl's figure suddenly emerged from the crowd and appeared in Tariq's field of vision.
A gentle voice sounded.
Her long silver-white hair fluttered in the wind, and her red pupils were full of seriousness.
She has slender eyebrows, a straight nose, a baby-fat face that is slightly red from running, and her pretty lips are gently opening and closing.
Under the warm sunshine, she seemed like an angel descending to the world.
"If you are the only one"
Tarik froze on the spot, looking at the girl blankly and murmuring.
"And us!"
A loud response came from behind Vivian.
Behind her stood a large group of people:
The leader is Morey in a black robe, a magic apprentice full of fighting spirit, summoned beasts of various shapes, a guard captain with a bandage on his shoulder, and mercenaries ready to go.
They were all combat professionals who gathered spontaneously and came from the west gate under the leadership of Vivian.
These professionals gathered together are like the beam of light in the night, tearing through the darkness before dawn.
"Boy, why are you crying like a girl!
"If you're a man, stand up!"
"If you dare to disturb my sleep, I will pluck off their skin and wipe your butt!"
"May Pelor watch over us."
"Let's go! Let those monster cubs see the power of human beings!"
"Roar!"
————
"Damn it, hurry up! Pile up obstacles at the city gate to prevent these beasts from entering the city!"
Once the empty city gate is broken open, the guards at the city gate will be unable to escape.
The captain of the guard discovered this situation and quickly ordered the soldiers to move the surrounding buildings, stones, and even carriages that could be dismantled to the city gate, just to delay it for a while.
Seeing that the damage to the city wall was getting worse and worse, the guard captain frowned tightly and glanced at the top of the city wall.
The guards were still shooting, but the continuous drawing of the bow with all their strength had caused their arms to enter a state of hyperemia.
If this continues, their arms may become disabled.
The magic apprentices and teachers behind them all exhausted their magic power and sat there meditating to recover.
The crossbow arrows and falling rock ammunition were also used up.
Only the mayor is left still releasing [Second Ring Magic·Dust Tornado].
The damage of this magic is very low, but it can make the monsters in a large area unstable and unable to hit the city wall.
But black blood had begun to flow from the mayor's ears and nostrils.
His magic power reserve is not that exaggerated, and now it is completely squeezing the last bit of potential in his body.
"you"
The guard captain seemed to want to say something to him, but was stopped by the mayor's eyes.
"It's not the last moment yet, we still have reinforcements that haven't arrived yet!"
"Reinforcements?"
"By the way, Tariq! He went to summon the professionals who were passing by."
"Hurry up, Tariq, if you don't come again"
The entire city wall was being hit, but the most dangerous place was the city gate.
That side is the attack range of the Iron-eating Elephant, and the battered city gate is already in a precarious state.
The guard captain withdrew from the command position and asked a usually steady squad leader to act as temporary commander.
He jumped directly from the city wall and landed in a perfect posture.
He fell from a height of 8 meters to himself and the ground without being harmed at all, which shows that his body control has reached a certain level.
The others already knew their mission, and he was about to start fighting.
His battlefield is not on the city walls.
"Qiang!"
Pulling out the knight's sword that he had not wielded for more than ten years, the guard captain faced the city gate and walked to the front of the guards.
He is the strongest man in this city, a gold-level swordsman!
The gold level can already use fighting spirit to swing weapons to launch long-range attacks.
However, using sword energy to attack is a waste of fighting energy, and only close combat can maximize his strength.
The city gate kept shaking, and there was a harsh creaking sound from the bearings, as if it was about to be knocked open in the next second.
"I will lead the charge!"
The guard captain shouted slogans to cheer up the surrounding guards and also to cheer himself up.
"Aliya, protect me."
He silently chanted his lover's name in his heart.
The scent of the monsters was getting closer and closer, and their unique stench filled everyone's nostrils.
"Our reinforcements are coming! It's Tariq!"
The soldiers on the reconnaissance floor suddenly shouted excitedly.
After hearing the news, the guard captain turned his head and looked behind with joy.
One after another figures appeared from the far corner of the street, running towards the city gate. The leader was his brother-in-law: Guard Tariq.
"boom!"
At the same time as Tariq arrived, there was also a huge voice.
"boom!!!"
Guarded the city gate for nearly an hour
broken!
The next second, the beasts surged towards the crowd in front like a tide.
