Chapter 337 Northern War Theatre - Part Two (2/2)
”What about the detonators?” Xiong Da asked and Hou Fei smiled widely
”Do not worry, I have control over all those explosives right through this tablet here” Hou Fei s onto a customised Barret M82 05 calibre sniper rifle He had been a sniper by trade before he turned into a ood tiainst these orcs and aid with the fight too
”Hahaha, all this for a request of an army Jin better be well compensated for this Now to make sure that ill still have an arht to hi he could find The cathedral bell toas perfect as he could oversee up to 900Da called the others to assist hiroup of huent ca Da announced that they were going around towithin the houses by banging house to house Yet, General Argent was not so stupid to si Da was carrying rectangular parcels and so did the other cultivators
”You guys…I sense that you all are plotting so more than that… but you have already proven yourself trustworthy As long as you sweep the area properly and ensure that there are no civilians around, I shall pretend not to have noticed whatever else youWe do not wish any innocents to be killed in this ent walked ahile he hurried theDa and the others did not hesitate to throw as e rings and began to search every house while placing the explosives right at the doors and exits they could find They figured if they were to destroy sos, at least then the interior of the house could still remain more or less intact
Meanwhile, Luo Bo, Sandy and Jia Le looked over the horizon and saw that there was notthe sunset, it would get darker soon Unlike in a lot of fantasy books, these goblins did not have the sight to see in the dark Thankfully, Luo Bo, after learning that it er than a day before the start of their mission, she had purchased specialised arrows to be supplied in the previous ammo crate similar to the flare arrows she had used in the warehouse when they tried to save Lynn fro been delayed by the sand wall, it appeared that the Orcs finally h, as their silhouettes started to appear in huge numbers It see for soht, they went into their practiced siege formations
The frontline warriors placed whatever shi+elds they were carrying in front of them The lines behind the front held their shi+elds at the top of their heads in an angled position to prevent arrows fro archers that survived the first wave began to nock their arrohile the Ogres ere carrying the Catapults started to place theround for the Orcs to use thee weapons! Bow the fort walls as he gave his coan to ready their weapons too including Sandy as preparing a spell to subdue the frontlines If not for the terrain being sand and rocks all around, she probably could not unleash her full potential Perhaps, that hy Kraft had decided to send her
”OOOOOOWWWWWOOOOOOO” A loud long warhorn sound sounded fronalled the coainst the Valley Town of Gob Gob Bu
”FIRE!!!!!” The highest ranking Orc officers shouted sihout the mountains Rocks doused in a special concoction of oil were lit before the Orcs fired their catapults towards the fort walls The Orcs began to stoes started to cast supportive spells to aid the warriors in the frontlines ic and projectile attacks
Separately, a s a spawn of the Thunder Serpent Syldra to aid the Orc Army especially when they knew that there would be those pesky huoblins That was definitely one oddity factor that they did not account for at the start of the war Still they believed they had the firepower to dae and take over the fort
As the fiery rocks were fired towards the fort walls, Zhi Nu as at the side of the fort walls threw her threads that were as tough as steel, wrapping those rocks and slowing them down to a point where she could control theh to s and she lobbed the rocks at the warriors upon releasing the ies had anticipated such a possibility of retaliation and cast out bursts of lightning targeting the rocks The lobbed rocks disintegrated into debris inOrc frontline for on their shi+elds Arroere being released by the Orc Archers, also doused in fire but Sandy ed to summon a Sand shi+eld Sentinel Spirit which was tasked with protecting the fort wall
Like its na made out of sand and possessed soe shi+elds that aided the fort walls in defending the goblins and defended the cultivators frooblins were in awe as the Sand shi+eld Sentinel Spirit appeared right in front of the them with the confidence that they could defend this sets are in range! Bow theent shouted and the Ger sound that was equivalent to the sounds of the thunder striking Sooblins even had to close their ears when anti tank guns were fired
All of the shells that were being sent out into the hly explosive in nature and the Orc Mages tasked with defending nearly broke down fro the shi+eld barriers because of the consecutive blasts that the anti tank guns had sent out They vomited out blood but continued to maintain the barrier only to realise it was futile when hearing another round of booh the valley Those Orcs did not expect the goblins would have such heavy consistent firepower at their disposal
Thatclaimed a majority of the casualties, but the Orc arhout this particular leg of the caed to found out how to deflect the metal box's attacks, so they were insured that it was only a matter of time until the metal box could be beaten
However here, there were even more new types of attacks, which had never before appeared To the Orc's best knowledge they were aware that humanoid factions out there had secretly found and horded lost technolgy Though only a s Haht out these humanoids and enslaved they he found
So the orc officers that were observing the battle believed that the intense firepower ed to the humanoids or the Goblins had soside with the huence was not able to pick up (Well, of course they could not pick it up, they never knew the existence of Jin, teehee!)
The wide shi+eld barriers finally shattered after the second volley of high explosive shells drained thethe oblins to be slightly more effective and both Jia Le and Luo Bo could start attacking too However, it was not yet their turn to shi+ne
The Goblin Marksmen fired their very first fusillade of bullets onto the orc warriors in the frontline They listened to Hou Fei's instructions and ai the shi+elds that were blocking it ”Those ainst these babies right here” Hou Fei had told the a few shots through the thickest shi+eld they made The bullets pierced the sheet of oblins expected
With such knowledge, the goblins scored dozens of confir of one shot one kill ”Each bullet is equivalent to a gold coin Idom disappears Painful isn't it? So dom's coffers to not only suppress but eliminate the enemy!!!” Hou Fei lied to theoblin marksmen made sure they used them efficiently (If Jin kne Hou Fei successfully bluffed the goblins operating the Anti Tank Guns about the cost of each shell, he would have a heart attack too That military vendor was not to be underestimated with his poords)
Yet, the orcs behind the fallen frontline did not start to panic, instead they picked up the bodies of the dead and turned them into meat shi+elds to protect themselves from further attacks ”Wow, these orcs, they…are that heartless To use their comrades' body as protection” Jia Le could not bear her eyes at such sight as she threw a kunai towards an Orc who used that tactic The Kunai she threas enchanted with one of Jia Le's cultivation techniques, causing multiple vines to appear from the weapon to whip and slash orcs in its radius of attack
To the orcs, it looked as if the dead orc were used as a catalyst where vines appeared to attack them, which made the orcs that survived the attack to stab the dead orc's body repeatedly, ensuring the vines would not ee once more
In the meantie Tornado Puncture of the Rabbit to mess up the frontlines The tornado wind knocked and slited orcs up but it did not lower their anised as ever ates
”The way these orcs are ent sa”I cannot believe they've continued to use this kind of taboo ic!” He slammed his fist at the fort walls as he commanded the anti tanks to continue to aim at the catapults
”Colonel Ayse, the runes you've distributed to the orc warriors are working splendidly! They are fearlesslytowards the fort walls!” One of the Orc officers knelt in front of the fe on a olf
”Of course, they are based on the products from the previous Head Researcher I have iiven Have you started to activate the lost technology artefacts just as I instructed you to do?” Ayse asked as she pushed her glasses while grinning at the possible turn of events
”Yes, we are in theillusion er to destroy our catapults, so they est threat so the artefacts would be ready in no ti that the one leading the Sol” The officer reported before Ayse disht be able to meet one of the famous Three Generals in person And it's the Spear General of all people ThisI parted away from the main army to oversee this foreseen ht just beco the entire battle from the back of the valley
