48 Regicide Part-2 (1/2)
”Projectile, load, volley”, a shout came from on top of the wall, as every cultivator beast or human who used ranged attack fired continuously on the incoming spider waves.
Cheeta: ”It is wastage of resource, stop firing stop firing.”, at his shout the firing stop the spider's gave the impression they would charge moving forward then moving in a circular fashion before retreating back. ”Do not attack they are merely fodders they are here to check the defense and waste resources.”
Chamelie: ”After noon shower, they are waiting for afternoon shower, they rain will decrease the visibility of humans, many of us beasts including the spiders can move unhindered, even the snake tribe will have problem.”
A random cultivator voiced out, ”What if we light the forest in fire?”
Sakkara:”Wow what a wonderful idea, why don't you light yourself on fire, it will be faster than lighting the entire forest in fire to commit suicide.”
The man blushed in embarrassment, it was not helping when his friends were making fun of him.
The waited for a long time although they might have attacked and cleared those foddera long time ago, but they would have lost valuable resources and when the real danger arrives they would be sitting ducks.
A loud thunder was heard and soon it started raining cats and dogs, it was getting difficult for the humans to see, and the deafening sound made it harder for them to hear.
Long Yu was happy, his strongest attack was derived from the principle of rain, thus it was stronger when it rain, he was confident enough to have an increase in attack strength.
Suddenly a shout was heard among the lineup, as the trees fell, ”Goliath”, Long Yu heard someone shout out, soon a few dozen big hairy looking spider came into view, even the smallest was above 25 meters where the largest just below 40 meters mark. These slow moving spiders had only one job to break down the fort.
The same fellow who had ordered the ranged attack once again ordered, ”Use flaming projectiles, Goliath are susceptible, to flames take aim at the joints of its legs it is their weak spot and fire.”
Soon hundreds of flaming projectiles rained on them, normally the rain would have stopped the fire but some of them had presence of the Dao of fire thus igniting the spiders in flame.
Even with fires lit on them the Goliaths mad a mad rush, their job was simple, either breaks down the wall or form a bridge between with its body for other spiders to climb.
”Do not let it near use array master use talisman to stop its advance”, the lumbering hulk of a spider, soon collapsed due to injuries it sustained by relentless bombardment. The furthest that was reached was a few dozen of meters.
Chamelie, ”Not good, anyone who is good at using fire based attacks, quickly use ranged attacks and lit those bodies up, the faster it turns to ash the better, hurry hurry.”
Soon a loud cackling was heard a sound produced due to constant collision between various spider carapaces. A huge swarm appeared consisting of various types of spiders. Why Chamelie was urging for th body of Goliaths to be burned down became clear because very soon a type of spiders known as 'Jumpers' started using the bodies as jumping stage.
The jumping spiders were done in easily, for cultivators these creatures were easy picking, even if some managed to hurt a few of them there was no major incident.
