Chapter 263 Defensive Crisis After All-out Suppression
The change happened too quickly, and the shield soldiers did not receive new instructions. Even though there were no scorpions coming in front of them, they still half-squatted and raised their shields, allowing the players in the world to face the tide of red scorpions in a daze.
It was too late to ask for help from the general of the Qilin Army. In desperation, he could only turn around and look anxiously at Niannian.
Without waiting for his exit, six arrows flew out from his short bow every year, three on the left and three on the right, flying to both ends of the shield wall.
When he saw that it was a blue arrow, Shisui was relieved and said thanks in a hurry. He walked down the sand dune quickly. Sanchishui had already started shouting, asking the people from his guild to return immediately.
Needless to say, the more than a hundred people rescued by Nian Nian in time with ice wall were shrunk back to the shield wall protection in a terrifying manner, and gasped heavily with lingering fear.
Zheng Qi from the Qilin Army has also come to an age of nearly 20 years old. He raised his eyebrows and smiled, and said half-truely, "I think our people can retreat."
The goal of this scorpion group is very clear. When the people who are walking in the world stand behind the shield wall, the scorpion group will rush straight to the shield wall. As soon as the people who are walking in the world are dispersed, the scorpion group will also be dispersed immediately. The people of the Qilin Army do not have to worry too much about the safety issues during retreat.
"It's a problem with the lake water, and those who have soaked in the lake water are regarded as targets." Song Qing immediately interrupted.
It was so late that I looked at the players who were walking around the world. Just now, because of the role model of the three-foot water, many people have gone down to the lake. Even those who stood by the lake have been splashed by the lake. At this time, it is really hard to say who was regarded as the target.
Moreover, when he looked at the scorching sun above his head, he looked at the pale players. The clothes of these people had been dried up long ago, but the Qilin Army who had drunk the lake water was fine. So a more reasonable explanation was that they accidentally got some special aura in the lake, which led to the crazy pursuit of these poisonous scorpions.
In this way, even if the people who are traveling all over the world flee, it is impossible to determine whether these poisonous scorpions will pursue them. Now it seems that the number of poisonous scorpions gushing out of such a small lake can only be described as a continuous stream. Compared with it, people are like racing against a tsunami that rushed to the shore, and will always be overturned by huge waves.
"Then, then, I, am I causing a big disaster?" Sanchishui stuttered.
"Now is not the time to talk about this." Shi Sui raised his hand and interrupted him, "It's still the original plan to push it over."
"Scorpion! Scorpion is climbing up!"
Before the few people here responded to the words of Sui, someone suddenly shouted from the shield wall, and used the knife in his hand to slash at the upper edge of the shield in front of him. The blade fell, and suddenly there were broken claws and broken limbs scattered, bringing out a burst of blood mist.
"You can't defend all the time, the scorpion will climb up." Shisui said immediately.
Needless to say, the general of the Qilin Army had adjusted the position of the spearmen, and the sharp brush blade rotated and flew again, and this time the offensive was even more violent than before.
"Bow soldiers turn shield soldiers, push forward with all their might!"
The general, who had a precise judgment of the situation, immediately chose to attack with all his might, and tried his best to keep the big guy climbing out before he could reach the forefront. Anyway, at most it was just a close fight, and he still had to take the initiative in his own hands.
Although there is an advantage of attack distance in the distance, long-range archers and other archers cannot cause effective range damage to the scorpion group, and may have limited damage to that big guy. It still needs to pull the battlefield to a range where you can exert your melee combat power. After all, there are many melee players on Xingtianxia, and the Kirin Army is the same. Those players in Mingtang need to have a closer formation distance.
As long as there are players who are moving around the world standing behind the shield wall as targets, the forward suppression process is actually very simple.
The soldiers around him were busy, walking step by step towards the small lake in the oasis, and they could only watch it stupidly? More and more players in the world turned from white to red, and gradually felt grateful and apologized for the general of the Qilin Army.
No matter what, they are the ones who cause trouble, they are the ones who are targeted by the scorpion group, they are the ones who want to escape before, but they are still the ones who are protected now.
The Xingtianxia players who were originally huddled behind the shield wall finally showed some elite attitudes. For example, the Mo family and other melee professions automatically became the rotation back row of spearmen. Following the command orders, they cooperated with the spearmen to clear the poisonous scorpions in front of them.
The music players of Jade Emperor Academy began to disperse their positions to ensure that the formation-breaking song played could cover the gain effect to everyone in front of them. The players of Yunji Sword Sect temporarily withdrew their swords and instead bombarded the scorpion group with the talismans drawn on the spot. Although the speed was a little slower, the effect was very gratifying. Even the sci-art players with weak killing effects were doing their best. Soon they hit it off with the person who threw the talisman and used the long bow in their hands to increase the flight distance of the talisman. The players of Mingtang mobilized the earth elements here, strengthening their own defenses while pushing the yellow sand towards the scorpion group.
At this time, there were no one involved in the battle, only Sui, Song Qing and Qi Youfeng.
Zheng Qi had already joined the sprite team with another Kirin Army player who did not need command. Sanchishui rushed to the front row with a little shame and anger, scattering various attack talismans he had saved. Niannian naturally did not stand by. While carefully controlling the skill consumption, he alternately supported the battlefield ahead with whirlwind arrows and ice arrows.
The reason why Qi Youfeng did not participate in the battle was just because he was always by his side every day.
Song Qing really has no combat power, and his guard was also requisitioned, so he could only watch the show as an audience.
"Aren't you going to play music?" Song Qing looked at Shisui. Although this person couldn't beat him, he was still an assistant. Is it really good to paddle like this?
"Our mentality has changed." Shisui sighed softly as he saw the cooperation becoming more and more tacit understanding.
"If I can fight, I will rush over." Song Qing stared at the bloody battlefield, with a bit of heat in his eyes.
"The secretion of adrenaline brought by the iron-blooded battlefield and the irrational trust brought by the same hatred of the enemy are indeed an excellent way to get closer."
"Don't let it go so disappointing, right? Are you still thinking about removing these people from the team?" Song Qing turned his head and looked at Shi Sui.
"Are you interested in these people?"
"Of course. This is a real elite soldier." Song Qing's eyes on the battlefield were a little more determined to win.
While the two talked, the more than a thousand people with shield soldiers as the vanguard had approached the small lake filled with red scorpions. The scorpion's size changed from the size of a palm to the size of a face, and the big guy also entered everyone's sight.
When facing the two black eyes of the giant scorpion, everyone's attack paused for a moment, and an irresistible chill suddenly rose in his heart.
The next second, everyone realized a very serious problem. With the size of this giant scorpion, they might not be able to surround them!
"Stop, stack shield!"
The shield soldier immediately stopped and set up two rows of shields a hundred meters away from the giant scorpion. The spearmen still attacked through the gap between the shields. The shield wall, which was already more than two meters, stopped the players' offensive.
Shisui and Songqing looked at each other and knew that this was a deadlock.
The giant scorpion is visually estimated to have a length of more than 100 meters. With the large claws in front and the scorpion tails of more than ten sections, the total length is estimated to be nearly 200 meters. Although the giant scorpion has not yet planned to leave the center of the lake, it is still a bit difficult to make everyone cope with the continuous group of scorpions while surrounding and killing the giant scorpion.
Unexpectedly, this big guy was so big that he was a little annoyed every year. She was affected by the atmosphere just now and was so happy that she forgot to continue observing and follow up on the information.
"You two, you have been observing for a long time, but do you have any ideas?"
The gray-armored general who had been commanding the Qilin Army walked to the side of the two of them. His hoarse and low voice accompanied by the metal sound of the armor rubbing as he walked, which was very consistent with this desolate desert.
"I have it, I have it!" Niannian, who had just come over, immediately raised her hand.
"Please give me some advice." Seeing that it was this powerful Nian Nian, the gray-armored general named Mushi also slowed down his tone, and his attitude was even more friendly than when he was a year old.
"The key is that the scorpion group and the giant scorpion cannot be killed at the same time, but they just get together, right?" Niannian asked first.
Wood and stone nodded.
"I can fly up to attract the attention of the giant scorpion, let you kill the scorpion group completely, and observe the source of the scorpion group. Maybe there will be a good chance."
"Can you fly?!"
The few people who heard the proposal every year were a little surprised. Apart from the sword immortals of the Yunji Sword Sect and the Western Light Holy Masters, they had not heard of other professions that unlocked flying skills. Even the sword immortals could fly, and the flight of the Sacred Masters of the Light Holy Masters was just a simple floating air.
Every year he didn't talk nonsense, he floated directly into the air, and turned around with a smile on the heads of several people, and even moved flexibly for a few times.
Mu Shi was immediately overjoyed, but he asked carefully every year when he landed, "First of all, how long can your skill last? Secondly, can you really attract the attention of the giant scorpion when you go up alone? Can your mana support your movement and attack consumption?"
Niannian was stunned at this time and began to think about Mushi's questions seriously, secretly glad that there was a clear-headed person here. Otherwise, if he really flew over in such an impulse and then considered these issues after the actual fight, it might be a bit late.
"This is not a skill, it does not consume mana, it is just a bit troublesome, but it is not a problem for me. As for whether it can attract attention, I have to actually try it out. The problem of mana consumption is also. You have to actually see the subsequent effects before you can estimate it. I can only say that I should try my best to pay attention."
"Since that's the case," Mu Shi looked at the military formation that was defending the defense, and then looked at the giant scorpion lying in the middle of the lake with its scorpion tail shaking slightly. "You go up and take a look first, just do reconnaissance. I will temporarily maintain this situation and discuss it when you bring back the exact news."
Niannian was about to nod, but heard a scream at the shield wall behind him, and quickly turned around to look.
At this glance, Mu Shi, Shi Sui and others felt a little nervous at the same time, and their pulse and breathing seemed to have stopped at this moment.
At some point, the scorpion groups that were rushing in were all the size of a washbasin, and the sharp tail thorn actually pierced the shield in the hands of the soldiers. More than a dozen soldiers were caught off guard and fell to the ground instantly, rolling in pain on the ground.
This shield wall defense is already in danger!
