Chapter 323 Breaking the City
So hot……
why is it so hot.
In sight, the world was covered with a layer of blood-like color. It seemed to be soaked in blood, and it seemed to be burned by karmic fire. It was not air that breathed into his chest, but seething fire. Gradually, some silhouetted foregrounds appear on the horizon. Low guard walls, tall and low buildings, pointed towers...it was a city.
Sur City!
The name suddenly flashed in my mind, it was like a flash of lightning, splitting the chaotic world.
Sur City... Sur City, I remember it. What should I remember it for?
Sur...revenge? Yes, revenge! I want to destroy it, I want revenge. But whose revenge?
It hurts, my head hurts. Sur City! revenge! destroy! !
In the empty wilderness, there was a beast-like roar, the voice was full of anger, and buzzed over the entire city. On the guard wall of the city, a soldier leaned on the top of the wall, stretched his head, pointed towards the wasteland and shouted: "There, there is something there!"
The night was gloomy, and the moonlight was blocked by lead clouds, so that the wilderness was completely dark. It's just that in the darkness, one can vaguely see something moving, and that thing is actually darker than the darkness!
The soldiers of the city defense team ran up to the wall with torches, but they still couldn't see anything. Until a little fire suddenly lit up in the darkness, and the fire continued to grow, as if a ball of fire had risen out of thin air in the wilderness. So by the light of the fire, the soldiers finally saw it.
Although there is only one outline, the tall body is still clearly visible even though it is far away. The most conservative estimate is that the creature under the night is at least six or seven meters high!
That's a giant!
It's a pity that there is no such thing as a tactical telescope in this world, otherwise the soldiers on the wall can see it. After crossing a long distance, behind the flame was a ten-meter-high body covered with black scales. The fire came from its chest, the giant's chest was split open, and the fiery flames shot out from the chest, as if a round of scorching sun was hidden in its body.
Even though the face with human facial features was also covered with black scales, Baku's appearance could be vaguely discerned. However, Baku at this moment is almost in two life forms from before, and now he is like a demon, a real demon! On the scaly head, the outline of the city of Suer was reflected in the two yellow eyes like copper bells. The scales at both ends of the temples gradually turned into curved horns covered with spiral stripes, and a black and thick mane flew behind the head like a black flame.
Biological armor resembling an exoskeleton grew on the shoulders, arms, and knees.
Under the firelight, the biological armor flowed with the luster of dead ash. Some bright red lines spread from Baku's chest to other angles of the body. In these lines, dark red light flowed regularly, as if blood was galloping through blood vessels.
Baku seemed to be enduring great pain, he let out a mournful howl, the light in his chest became more and more intense, and finally shot out a fiery stream of fire. The thick and boiling stream of fire pierced through the air, and the recoil of the bombardment made the giant-like Baku couldn't help but take a few steps back. Due to the influence of the recoil, the angle of this straight bombardment was raised upwards.
So under the dark night, this bright stream of fire swung upwards. It swept across a section of the guard wall in Suer City, and blasted into a row of bungalows in the city. Going further up, it slanted across the left wing of the City Lord's Mansion, and finally formed a continuous pillar of fire that almost spanned the vast wilderness!
In the place swept by this hellfire, no matter whether people or things are melted into silence. Ethan leaned on the fence of the balcony with a pale face. The bright and fiery stream of fire swept across less than ten meters away from him, smashing the left wing of the City Lord's Mansion, and the sound of the wing collapsing was heard in both ears. . Ethan was trembling all over, as long as the fire flow deviated a little bit, maybe he would be buried in the flames.
He looked out of the city, at the source of the disappearing pillar of fire, and Ethan vaguely saw a figure full of oppression. He couldn't help moaning: "What is that?"
"What is that?" Regis was standing on the roof, holding his sword and said excitedly: "No matter what it is, something interesting finally happened."
Alan's voice came from downstairs: "I don't think it's funny at all, let's go, that thing is coming for the city of Sur, we can't let it destroy the city we just found."
Behind Allen were the soldiers who had been reequipped with flame warriors, Willick and others. Allen had already held Qianjun in his hand and was about to leave. Caesar's voice sounded from behind, and Caesar came out of the house with the help of Father Miro, and shouted: "That's Baku. There's nothing wrong with it, he must have used the devil's blood. Alan, kill him, Baku has already Turned into a demon who only knows how to kill!"
Allen nodded gravely.
"Go outside the city!"
After sending out that astonishingly powerful fiery stream, Baku also seemed to have consumed a lot of source power. He was gasping for breath, his chest was closing, and large clouds of hot smoke were spewing out from his chest cavity. When his chest was completely closed, he started to run. The giant's strides were huge, ten meters in one step, approaching the city of Sur at a terrifying speed. Alarm bells have been ringing in the city of Sur, and sharp whistles have sounded in the streets of the city, reminding people to stay at home.
The soldiers of the city defense team gathered together, and a team of gunners rushed to the guard wall quickly, and entered their respective positions under the command of the officer. Two heavy crossbows were also put into use. The steel arrows with thick forearms were lifted up the city wall by soldiers and loaded into the firing components of the heavy crossbows.
The ground was shaking, and the faces of all the soldiers were pale. They had never encountered such an enemy, and the fear in their hearts could not be described in words. If the officers hadn't kept motivating them, some soldiers might have fled the battle.
When the distance between the giant and the guard wall was only a hundred meters, the officer raised his saber and swung it in the direction of the giant: "Fire the heavy crossbow!"
The crossbowman had anchored the giant, and Baku was too large for precise aiming. Hearing the commander's order, the crossbowman pressed the trigger hard, and under the action of the gears and hinges, the rough steel arrow made a dull sound of piercing the air, and shot towards the giant like black electricity.
Baku was running wildly when suddenly his shoulders shook heavily. The steel arrow was nailed deeply into his shoulder, hitting his body so that he fell on his back. Seeing the giant being knocked down by the steel arrow, the soldiers on the guard wall breathed out. At least, this enemy is not invincible.
The steel arrow made a bloody hole on Baku's shoulder. He reached out to hold the tail end of the steel arrow and pulled it out forcefully, immediately bringing out a rain of blood. However, after the rain of blood, the blood hole on the shoulder began to heal. The shattered bones and muscles inside were regenerating at a speed visible to the naked eye. When the wound was completely closed, Baku was back on his feet.
"Keep firing!" the officer yelled.
The two heavy crossbows fired in turn, and the dull sound of piercing the air sounded again. Using the steel arrow in his hand as a weapon, Baku deflected away the second incoming arrow, and stretched out his hand to catch another arrow. Baku didn't care even if the palm of his hand was torn apart by the arrow. He let out a suppressed growl from his throat, his body rotated, and he threw two steel arrows in succession.
The officer turned pale and screamed, "Get out of here."
It's a pity that the crossbowman's reaction was always one step late. The two heavy crossbows were smashed by the arrows thrown back by Baku one after another. Without the suppression of the heavy crossbow, Baku began to charge, and the officer shouted hysterically: "Fire/gun team, attack!"
The flames of fire/gun shooting began to light up in the night, but the projectiles with limited power and insufficient firepower could not cause actual damage to Baku at all. Baku slammed into a section of the guard wall, and the low guard wall immediately opened a gap for the giant, and many firemen/gunners had no time to escape. Either be crushed to death by giants, or crushed to death by falling rocks.
"Shoot, don't stop!" Although he knew it would be useless, the officer still ordered, because he didn't know what else to do besides attack.
While the fire/gun team continued to shoot at Baku, the infantry of the city defense team also joined the battle. It's just that the long swords in their hands and the armor on their bodies look so thin in front of the demon Baku. Baku shook his head, recovering from the brief daze from the collision. He first stretched his arms to the left and right to sweep furiously, and then slapped the gunners on the guard walls on both sides away like flies.
Then he picked up a two-meter-wide boulder and threw it at the infantry below. The infantry screamed and scattered left and right, and the two hapless soldiers had no time to escape, but could only watch helplessly as the boulder fell, smashing them into meatloaf.
For a time, Baku was simply unstoppable.
"It's over, it's over!" The officer sat down on the guard wall, watching his soldiers continue to die in despair. He picked up the iron sword that fell beside him, and laughed almost crazily. Putting the sword across his neck, he was about to kiss himself in apology, when suddenly a rough gunshot rang out.
That is definitely not the loud sound that a fire/gun can make, it is like the roar of a beast. The next moment, multiple lines of fire swept across Baku's body like long whips, and the dense and powerful firepower blasted the scales on Baku's body surface. The giant was lifting a boulder, but it was knocked back again and again by the violent shooting, and the stone missed and fell to the ground, and instead smashed his foot.
"Instead of having the courage to commit suicide, it is better to use this courage in battle."
A man's voice came from behind the officer. He turned his head, and Belmode smiled at him. Then he turned to the outside of the city, shook his hands lightly, and slid out a pair of short knives with chains from his sleeves. With a whistling sound, he bounced out of the guard wall, fell to the ground like a big bat, and rushed towards the giant. The officer leaned on the top of the wall, only to see that the city gate on the other side opened at some point, and people kept pouring out.
One of them has frost-colored hair, which is extremely conspicuous in the dark. He seemed to feel something, and turned to look at the officer. The officer immediately recognized that it was Alan, the young businessman who generously provided the Crosis loom technology to Sur City!
