Game of the World Tree - Chapter 686

Chapter 683 Cannon Fodder

The Red Maple Kingdom army under the city wall began to move, and the players on the city wall, as well as the thousands of “militiamen” recruited by the efforts of the Nature’s Heart Mission, also stood behind the battlement wall, ready to fight.

The crossbow was pulled up, the muzzle of the magic crystal cannon was aimed at the outside of the city wall, and the magic guns and bows and arrows were also aimed at the army outside the city, waiting for the opponent to enter the range before launching an attack.

Yeye also raised the magic gun.

Although he is a warrior player and his magic power is not abundant, this does not prevent him from satisfying his desire to use two guns when defending the city.

The wind whistled in his ears, as if the wind had risen, and the flags hanging high on the city wall rustled. The original medieval city tune BGM in the game system also changed to the exciting “For the Glory of the Goddess” with the sound of the horn wind, making Yeye feel that the whole small universe was about to burn.

At this moment, he felt that he was the protagonist of this world! He was the hero in this war!

He clenched the magic gun, his cheeks flushed red with excitement, and he was also a little nervous.

Although his reason told him that this was a game, the shock of the army approaching and the real stimulation felt by his five senses still made his adrenaline surge.

When he couldn’t help but look at the old player next to him, he found that he was also very excited.

“Brother Jifeng, haven’t you participated in several large-scale wars? You have also fought against the cities of half-orcs, and you are still so excited?”

Yeye couldn’t help but tease.

“Hey, it’s different! This is a fight with humans. Compared with the human army, the armies and cities of other races are not at the same level. Don’t you think… this is the feeling of a medieval war?”

Facing the wind, while adjusting the height of the bed crossbow, answered.

After hearing his words, Yeye subconsciously looked back.

His eyes swept across the medieval city scenery of Ogus City behind him, swept across the proudly standing Folzer Fortress on the hill, swept across the well-equipped Red Maple Kingdom army outside the city, and then nodded in agreement.

Such a scene was indeed shocking, it was really like being in a movie!

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but call up the system and pressed the screenshot option.

While Ye Ye was frantically taking screenshots in the system, he heard a low curse from the person next to him:

“Damn, humans are humans. This NPC’s IQ is much higher than that of the orcs.”

Ye Ye was slightly stunned, and then followed the gaze of the person next to him to look outside the city wall. He saw that the army of the Red Maple Kingdom outside the city had not yet reached the range of the city wall and the fortress, and stopped.

Then, the army slowly changed its formation, and rows of soldiers pushed wooden baffles with wheels to leave the army formation and began to move towards the city.

Looking around, there were probably more than 5,000 people.

They hid behind the baffles and moved slowly towards the city wall.

“It’s the archers! Attack when they are in range! Aim the crossbows at those defense vehicles and smash them!”

In the battlefield voice channel, the all-star Acan, the commander of the city defense battle, shouted.

Archers!

Yeye clenched the magic gun in his hand, took a deep breath, and prepared for the attack.

The defense vehicles under the city moved slowly and finally entered the range of the bed crossbow.

At this moment, the roar of All-Star Achan sounded again in the voice channel:

“Bed crossbow listen to the order-attack!”

With his order, nearly a hundred sounds of breaking through the air sounded on the city wall.

I saw huge spears and arrows flying out with the brilliance of skills.

Most of them missed, but there were still a few that hit the target.

I saw that the defense vehicles that were shot were instantly broken into pieces, revealing the archers behind them.

But even if the defense vehicles were destroyed, these archers did not retreat, but either retreated behind other defense vehicles, or held up shields and dispersed their formations and continued to move forward.

Soon, they entered the range of the bows and arrows.

“They are in range! Attack!”

The player commander gave an order.

Hearing the order, Yeye took a deep breath and pulled the trigger of the magic gun.

For a moment, there were roars on the city walls, and blue magic element bullets accompanied by a rain of arrows shot towards the archers outside the city.

After a round of attacks, hundreds of archers who were slowly moving outside the city fell in an instant.

However, they still did not stop, but after moving a hundred steps, they finally stopped one after another and began to draw their bows to fight back against the city walls.

Thousands of elite imperial archers fired in unison, and the players on the city walls also ushered in an amazing rain of arrows.

“Fuck! Find a shield! Or find a cover! Quick!”

Face the wind was startled.

Looking at the oncoming rain of arrows, Yeye and Nana also raised their shields in a panic.

The arrows flew down, and Yeye only felt a heavy blow on the shield, almost knocking him directly to the ground.

At this moment, he heard the exclamation of Face the Wind beside him:

“Fuck! It’s a stone bullet, Coconut Nana, hide quickly!”

Hearing the anxious voice of Face the Wind, Yeye’s heart was pounding.

Suddenly, his hair stood on end, as if he was being stared at by something terrifying, and a strong sense of crisis rose in his heart…

That was one of his skills [Danger Prediction].

He didn’t bother to look up to see what was happening, and quickly pulled up the girl beside him and jumped to the side.

Just after he jumped to the side, a deafening roar came to his ears, and a heat wave rushed towards him, accompanied by countless flying gravel.

Yeye looked at the place where he and Nana had just stood, and saw that a huge stone bullet had smashed it into a landslide, the bricks and stones were broken, and the cracks on the wall extended far away…

Broken stones were everywhere, still burning with raging flames, and choking black smoke rushed straight into the sky.

Looking at this scene, Yeye’s face couldn’t help but turn pale. He couldn’t imagine what would have happened to him and Nana if they hadn’t dodged just now.

Although it was a game, and although they could be resurrected, but… such a real scene, it brought an absolute shock to people’s hearts.

Even though he had gradually become familiar with the rhythm and bloodiness of Elf Kingdom through battle after battle, at this moment, Yeye still felt his throat dry.

“It’s a trebuchet! They used a trebuchet! Damn, where is the divine defense barrier? What did the guild do?!”

He cursed at the Gale Bar.

Soon after he finished cursing, screams came from all over the city wall.

Yeye looked up and saw “meteorites” burning in the sky, trailing black smoke.

The meteorites drew a curved arc in the sky and smashed towards the city of Ogus.

In Yeye’s shocked eyes, he saw these “meteorites” falling into various parts of the city, easily smashing houses into pieces and causing raging fires…

On the city wall, you can see the panicked citizens in the city, hear the screams of the human NPCs, the crying of children and the screams of women…

The rain of arrows continued to shoot in from outside the city wall, and from time to time you could see players and militiamen who were unfortunately shot by arrows falling down, but the bodies of the former would slowly disappear, and the latter would fall in a pool of blood and there would be no movement.

Yeye even saw several silver bosses who usually played with Warcraft in the wild, but at this moment, they were easily shot in the vitals by a few arrows shot from an unknown direction outside the city, and died directly.

Even worse, they were hit directly by the “meteorite” that fell from the sky. After the huge roar, there was not even a trace of blood.

The smell mixed with blood and burnt smell stimulated his nasal cavity. Yeye shuddered coldly and reached out to wipe the cold sweat on his head.

He looked at the players on the wall who kept shooting at the outside of the city, and then looked at the dense gray soldiers outside the city through the shooting hole, and exhaled deeply…

At this moment, his hands were shaking.

Although he was looking forward to this carnival before the war started, when the war really came, Yeye realized that when a game is real enough to be mistaken for the real thing… the shock it brings to people is far from being described in a few words.

At this moment, he felt that he was actually quite insignificant.

In this war, no matter how powerful a player is, he is nothing more than an insignificant soldier.

At this moment, accompanied by cheers, Yeye saw a golden beam of light suddenly rising from the direction of Forzer Fortress…

The beam of light rushed into the sky, and then quickly spread to the surroundings, and finally turned into a light golden defense shield.

The defense shield enveloped the entire city, with only a gap of less than three meters in the vertical direction of the city wall.

There was a whistling sound, and several more meteorites with billowing smoke fell, but this time, they only hit the defense shield, causing circles of ripples…

Then, under the golden light, the meteorites turned directly into ashes and disappeared.

“Hahahaha! The divine defense barrier is activated. Let’s see how arrogant their catapults are! Hahaha!”

On the side, there was a laugh from Facing the Gale.

The warrior player looked up at the sky, then looked at Yeye who seemed to have not yet recovered, and patted him on the shoulder:

“Why are you in a daze! Fight quickly! You will not be used to such a big battle for the first time, but you will get used to it in a while!”

After hearing what the Wind Bar said, Yeye nodded.

He took a few deep breaths, adjusted his state, and then picked up the magic gun again and joined the battle.

With the protection of the divine defense barrier, the players on the city wall were much calmer.

Although the arrows from both sides were still intertwined like rain, there was no need to worry about something suddenly falling on their heads.

Yeye fired randomly at the bottom of the city wall, but he didn’t kill anyone. He regretted not having the [Heart Arrow] skill.

Gradually, after discovering that the catapult could no longer cause damage to the city wall, the Red Maple Army outside the city changed again.

The horn sounded again, and the army formation changed again.

The dark Red Maple soldiers separated from the army, carrying the siege ladders, and began to move towards the direction of Ogus City.

“Hey, are we going to attack? There’s not even a siege tower? Coconut, pay attention, the next is the best time to harvest experience points!”

Facing the wind bar on the side laughed.

Yeye nodded, took out a bottle of magic potion from his arms and drank it all to replenish his magic, then raised the magic gun again.

Outside the city wall, the Red Maple soldiers attacking the city were very fast.

They seemed to be crazy, shouting and rushing towards the city wall.

The players’ elemental bullets and arrows fell like raindrops, and the soldiers fell like wheat, but even so, they still did not stop.

However, when these Red Maple Kingdom soldiers approached the city wall, Yeye frowned slightly.

These soldiers attacking the city… The equipment seems to be much worse than the archers just now.

Many of them are not even armored, but wearing some black, white, and gray coarse cloth robes, wearing simple hoods and white headscarves on their heads, and only holding a weapon in their hands.

“Is this a cannon fodder unit? Light infantry?”

Yeye frowned.

“Huh? Does the human army also have cannon fodder troops for sieges? Didn’t the intelligence say that all the sieges were heavy armored soldiers?”

Facing the gust of wind was also stunned.

The Segos world is dominated by supernatural powers, and even on the battlefield, professionals are definitely the main force among the main forces.

Except for some intelligent races that drive servants such as goblins as siege cannon fodder, most races actually prefer to use supernaturals wearing heavy armor when attacking cities.

Especially humans.

The human Holy Mannia Empire is best at heavy armored soldiers + siege towers.

This is also the homework that the players have done in advance, and they have even prepared for a bloody battle on the city wall.

At this moment, looking at these poorly equipped soldiers outside the city wall, it is somewhat unexpected.

However, although the equipment is simple, the morale of these soldiers is strangely high.

They seem to have completely forgotten life and death. Even if they charge and fall down, no one retreats.

There are too many of them…

They die in batches, but there are always more soldiers to replenish them from behind.

Finally… braving the arrows and magic of the players, these crazy soldiers rushed to the bottom of the city wall.

They put the ladder on the city wall and began to climb up from the bottom.

“Coconut, get ready for battle!”

Facing the wind reminded.

Yeye nodded, put away the magic gun, and drew his sword.

The first batch of red maple soldiers quickly climbed the city wall and started fighting with the players.

And Yeye also met a short and thin red maple soldier with a white headscarf.

The soldier raised a short sword and rushed towards Yeye with a roar.

Yeye’s eyes flashed and stabbed the long sword in his hand.

What surprised him was that it was just a tentative attack, but he easily stabbed the sword into the soldier’s chest…

Not a transcendent!

Such a thought suddenly came to Yeye’s mind.

A slightly cold wind blew over and blew off the soldier’s headscarf.

In Yeye’s astonished sight, a wrinkled face was revealed.

It was the face of an old man.

And it was a woman.

This is an old woman.

She looked at Yeye with a trace of fear, a trace of despair, a trace of madness, and a trace of relief…

She coughed twice, and then turned into ashes.

Only Yeye, holding the long sword, was left standing there.

The attackers were not light infantry.

They

were civilians.

I actually finished typing with a bad cold. Good night everyone…
