Chapter 226 The Storm on the Sea of Clouds
The dazzling sun shines on the vast sea of clouds plain, and the water mist rises with the warm light, filling the atmosphere with a clear breath.
But the current air is extremely heavy for the White Skeleton Dragon.
The tense breathing made it tremble in both hands while holding the crossbow. Its eyes have been staring at the plain of the sea of clouds in front of him, and he did not dare to leave his sight for a moment.
On this city wall, there are a total of hundreds of white dragons standing. They usually like to chat without making any sound at this time. The almost suffocating atmosphere surrounds the group of white dragons, as if the end is coming...
"Don't be afraid." The tall golden statues stood beside the White Skeleton Dragon, and their calm voice was the only comfort for the White Skeleton Dragon.
"The creators are watching us, and we're going to win."
The plain of the sea of clouds looks extremely calm now. Around the top of the mountain protruding from the sea of clouds, there are still some atmospheric creatures floating around. They seem to wander leisurely, as if everything in the world has nothing to do with them.
Suddenly, these atmospheric creatures seemed to feel something, and all flew away.
"It's coming..." The captain of Bai Shilong stood on a cloud tower on the city wall, looking at the direction of the mountain.
If you listen carefully, you can hear some rumbling sounds, some like thunder, and like countless creatures are running wild.
The captain's eyes were fixed on the mountain peak, and its concentration made it seem to forget even blinking, and its hand clenching the weapon could almost squeeze out blood...
"I'm coming!"
The captain's mouth suddenly made a sound, and I saw a small black spot on the sea of clouds in the distance.
at the same time. There are countless black spots behind it...
"Insect... worm-!!!" An exclamation awakened the silent and tense atmosphere, and the captain of the white dragon shouted with all his strength on the tower: "They! They are here!"
The calm sea of clouds has now been obscured by darkness, and thousands of insect swarms are constantly pouring out from around the top of the mountain.
‘Boom! Boom! ’ The white dragons on the tower rang what is called the bell, and the echoing sound announced the arrival of the enemy, and each white dragon went to its place.
They aimed the crossbow arrows in front of them, and the dragon in charge of the operation quickly climbed onto the giant crossbow.
in the distance. The army of the swarm is getting closer. These massive worms have flat feet, which not only allow them to climb steep mountains, but also allow their weight to run on the sea of clouds without sinking.
Although there is no sound when running on the sea of clouds, the footsteps of these giant insects have been constantly echoing in the white dragon's mind. They struggled to steady their trembling hands. Hold the crossbow in your hand...
Swarm. are approaching their range.
"Shoot! Shoot!"
The high tower on the city wall suddenly sounded the shouts of the captains, and the first beetle had crossed the range line.
"Gahahahah!"
At this moment, almost all the white dragons pulled the crossbow arrows in their hands. Countless arrows flew into the sky at this moment, and then fell like a torrential rain.
The rain of arrows fell on the wave of the insect swarm, and thousands of giant insects marched forward in the sharp shower. The carapace on their bodies kept reverberating with a crackling sound, and some arrows just hit the giant insect's head and eyes, etc. Some giant worms fell into the sea of clouds because of a large number of arrows. The companions behind it would step on its corpse without caring, and the speed of the entire swarm did not decrease at all.
"The ballista starts firing!"
Above the city wall, there was a roar of metal, and the large crossbow arrow operated by the white dragon had begun to move.
These huge crossbow arrows look different from ordinary crossbow arrows. They look like a cylinder with a large number of arrows at the head of the cylinder. The white dragon sits next to this cylinder and is controlled by a rotating joystick. Arrow launch.
When the rocker shook, the cylinder next to the white dragon also began to rotate. Under the sound of metal, spear-like long arrows shot out continuously. The head of a beetle.
The sharp arrow penetrated the beetle's head instantly, and the huge beetle suddenly fell on the sea of clouds.
The ballistas on the city wall all started to run under the operation of the White Skeleton Dragon. They rotated rapidly with the shaking speed of the White Skeleton Dragon. The arrows were continuously sprayed out of the cylinder, and more arrows were shot from the ballista. The side straps are continuously drawn into the ballista, providing the ballista with a steady stream of arrows.
Under the shooting of the giant arrow, many beetles in front were penetrated and fell to the ground, and were stepped into the sea of clouds by their companions behind them, but they were only a small number in the dense sea of insects, and their momentum was still not slow.
The White Skeleton Dragon built a huge cloud wall to surround the entire top of the mountain, but the Inca swarms did not spread their attacks, and all the swarms concentrated in the east direction.
It seems that they intend to attack directly from one direction, and all the swarms are concentrated in this direction, which makes them appear denser than the sea and almost unstoppable.
"Gahahahah!" The White Skeleton Dragon who operated the ballista roared furiously. It was spinning the ballista with all its might, as if it intended to tilt all the arrows out.
"Gah?" It suddenly saw a ball flying in front of its eyes...
'boom! ! ! ' The violent roar suddenly sounded, and the White Skeleton Dragon and its ballista were instantly blown away, turning into a pile of stumps and fragments and falling back onto the city wall.
'Boom! ’ At this time, another sphere flew towards the ballista on the wall.
Cannon worms are a new breed of Inca swarms, and they are also the types that act as the front line in this war. They can spray powerful explosive bombs from their mouths.
But the bomb didn't fly high enough and hit the cloud wall.
The sphere collided with a cloud-made wall that looked very fragile, and at the moment of impact, the sphere seemed to touch something very soft. It bounced back before it even exploded, and the sphere flew back to the swarm. There was a loud bang, it blasted a hole in the sea of clouds, and also blew a large piece of the shells of several nearby beetles.
The city wall defense of the White Skeleton Dragon seems to have emerged. It does not defend with hardness, but with softness.
'Boom! ’ The Inca swarm didn’t care so much, and another bomb hit the cloud-made wall.
'boom--! ! ' This time, before the wall could bounce, the bomb exploded, creating a hole in the cloud wall.
But the pothole isn't huge, and the soft cloud wall absorbs a lot of the shock.
"Gah! Hurry up and fix it!" When the white dragons on the city wall saw that they were blown open, they immediately took out something like a cloud and threw them into the big hole in the wall.
These clouds stuck to the hole that was blasted out by themselves, and they were quickly glued to the cloud there, and the blasted part was repaired in an instant.
'Boom! ’ But the Inca swarm wouldn’t stop firing.
The swarm had almost reached under the cloud wall, and a large number of bombs were aimed at the ballista on the wall, and most of them could not reach the top. They hit the wall and exploded continuously.
When the cloud wall was bombarded one after another, the entire cloud wall instantly became a pitted structure, and many bombs were ejected back, causing a lot of damage to the swarm itself.
And those beetles that rushed under the cloud wall have begun to climb up the cloud wall, and many insects are eating the soft wall below.
However, the wall is extremely sticky, and many beetles that are gnawing are stuck to the wall, and the wall that has not been gnawed is not sticky, and they cannot stop the beetle from climbing up.
"Gah! They're coming up!" The dragon standing on the wall immediately shot at the insect swarm climbing the wall.
At close range, the impact of the arrow can penetrate the shell of some beetles, but many bugs will continue to move even with arrows in their heads, and one large beetle has crawled up the wall.
‘Whoosh! ’
A golden spear instantly penetrated the beetle's head, and the huge body fell from the city wall.
"Gah!" The golden statues have already started fighting. They waved their huge weapons to knock down all the beetles that climbed up the wall. It can penetrate the beetle shell.
However, they can only deal with the general species.
In the sea of insects outside the wall, there are some giant insects with particularly large bodies.
They used to be called 'Earth Breakers'. They are 30 to 40 meters long, covered in silver armor, and have huge jaws. These soldiers are huge, and if they are in the sea of clouds, they will fall into the sea due to their weight. in the sea of clouds.
But that was hundreds of years ago.
The current form of the Earthshatter is similar to that of the past, but there are some differences.
An Earthshatter looked at the golden statue slashing beetles on the city walls, which it had made its target.
The elytra behind the Earthshatter suddenly opened, and four huge membrane wings stretched out from it.
With the trembling of the membrane wings, the body that was more than 30 meters long actually floated into the sky!
Moreover, it didn't just fly with its wings, a dazzling fire suddenly shot out from the tail of the Earthshaper, and the giant worm suddenly rushed forward, rushing towards the cloud wall where the statue was standing...
Just like the destruction of the dry and the rotten, the impact of the Earth Splitter instantly turned the cloud wall into broken clouds, and the statues and a ballista on the city wall were instantly knocked into the sky.
Because the adhesion of the cloud wall is quite high, when the Earthbreaker smashed this place, the surrounding city walls were also affected. They fell backwards, and a large number of white dragons and ballistas fell from the wall. down.
At the same time, a large number of beetles climbed up the collapsed wall, and the first line of defense of the white dragon... collapsed. (To be continued..)
