The Magician of Cultivation

The wall of the Imperial City is about 20 meters high, which is considered the highest wall in Xueyan Kingdom.

Even if the second-level monsters tried their best, most of them could not jump onto the city wall.

But they still jump by running at high speed, and then fall down exhausted at a height of seven or eight meters, and then crash down under the city wall with a loud bang.

The Warcraft had tough skin and flesh, so even after falling so heavily to the ground, it was completely unharmed.

Gollum got up and joined other monsters in crashing into the city wall.

Dong dong dong

Monsters kept climbing up the city wall, and pieces of earth and rocks were falling.

On the city wall, everyone held their breath.

It was the first time for them to encounter a 'beast tide'. Although everyone knew that monsters were brutal and ferocious, they did not expect them to be so terrifying.

Sima He's face was stern, and the knuckles of his right hand, which was holding the sword, were white.

His voice was still calm and he gave orders with authority.

"General Hu, two miles below the city wall, suppress them for me."

"Attributes follow orders!"

Hu Shizhong responded loudly, then turned and shouted to the messenger, "Crossbows, prepare..."

Soon, orders were issued to officers at all levels.

Buzz

The deep and powerful sound of mechanisms continued to echo on the western city wall.

In addition to the magic cannons on the city wall, there are ten huge monsters in the front.

These things are called 'Chuangzi Crossbow'.

The 'bed crossbow' was only developed in the last hundred years.

It is the standard weapon equipment purchased by Xueyan Kingdom from Huoyan Kingdom, specifically used for defending cities.

The 'Chuangzi Crossbow' can fire three crossbows at a time, and each crossbow is about the thickness of a bucket.

The crossbow is an enchanted weapon. It is flat in shape and made of fine steel, with blunt blades at the front and both sides.

The gun is covered with countless complex and intricate magic arrays.

These magic arrays are stacked one on top of another, and their purpose is to reduce the wind resistance of the crossbows when they are flying, while greatly increasing their penetrating power.

Moreover, once the crossbow enters the body of the monster, it will cause splash damage.

A second-level monster can be easily penetrated by a crossbow, and will almost certainly be killed.

Even a third-level monster would be seriously injured if hit head-on.

Even if you are hit in a vital part, you will still die.

The crossbow bed uses a 2nd-order magic crystal as its power source. One 5nd-order magic crystal can fire 15 times, which is crossbow guns.

This is a powerful weapon that can kill 2 second-level monsters with just one second-level magic crystal.

Of course, while the "Crib Crossbow" has powerful attack power, its disadvantages are also very obvious.

The first is that it is expensive.

The crossbow bed is made of metal with outstanding ductility, which can effectively filter out the recoil force during firing and prevent the crossbow bed from self-destruction.

Therefore, the purchase price is very expensive, basically three "Crossbows" will cost five million gold coins.

Moreover, consumables such as crossbows and machine guns also need to be purchased from the Huoyan Kingdom.

In addition, the magic circle needs maintenance every six months, which also costs money.

Therefore, unless it is a border city, or a city like the Imperial City that needs to defend against the "beast tide", other inland cities will basically not be equipped with "bed crossbows".

The second is the difficulty in purchasing.

The government of Huoyan Nation strictly controls the purchasing quota of "Chuangzi Crossbow" by its vassal states.

The ratio changes every year.

Finally, this type of crossbow bed has an embarrassing disadvantage in operation.

If it is controlled by an ordinary fighter, the attack distance will be limited and the accuracy will be greatly reduced.

Only with the magician's mental lock can the power of the "bed crossbow" be fully exerted.

But magicians have a noble status, and there are very few of them in the city defense army.

So there is no other way, the "Crossbow" can only be used when the enemy is in a relatively close distance.

Despite this, it is still one of the most powerful weapons against Warcraft.

When the "Chuangzi Crossbow" was about to launch an attack, many monsters under the city wall instinctively felt the threat of death.

They all left the group and wanted to retreat, but it was too late.

"emission……"

Hu Shizhong's voice was loud and clear for everyone to hear.

Woo~

The three kings in the distance, whose originally relaxed bodies suddenly straightened up.

Then they saw a row of crossbows emitting cold blue light flying out from the city wall.

The crossbow was extremely fast, carrying with it powerful energy fluctuations, whizzing into the battlefield.

Puff puff……

The bodies of the monsters were pierced one by one, and in the blink of an eye, the crossbows plowed hundreds of meters on the ground.

Along the line it drew, no monster survived within hundreds of meters.

Be it demon beasts or wild beasts, they were all pierced through by a single blow.

The beasts were still rushing forward one after another, and the three kings had not yet reacted.

The space of several hundred meters was filled again.

hum~

Another row of blue light flashed across the space of hundreds of meters, and hundreds of monsters fell down again.

3 This time the king finally reacted.

roar~

The Fire Lion King roared angrily.

But before its roar could subside, the dull "buzz buzz buzz" sound of gunfire was heard again.

There was rage in its eyes, and its entire body turned into flames, rushing into the sky above the area of ​​several hundred meters.

roar~

The Fire Lion King stretched out his body and stood proudly in the void.

Countless flames emanated from its body, quickly covering the space of nearly a thousand meters around it.

There were red flames flowing on its sideburns and the short hair on its body.

The lion's eyes widened as it stared at the hundreds of crossbows that came with an evil wind.

The crossbow is engraved with layers of magic arrays. When the array is running, the surface of the gun emits a light blue sharp light.

The corners of the Fire Lion King's mouth curled up, disdain flowed from his eyes, and his lion's mouth slowly opened.

"Roar…"

Everyone felt that the world suddenly became quiet. They could no longer hear the roars of beasts, the sound of arrows, or the shouts of killing.

Within dozens of miles inside and outside the imperial city, only the majestic and domineering roar of a lion continued to echo.

The beasts stopped attacking and looked blankly at the Fiery Lion King in mid-air.

Visible ripples spread out from the lion king's mouth and quickly covered the hundreds of crossbows.

The crossbow magic circle was destroyed by the sound waves and exploded in the air like gorgeous fireworks.

The sound waves penetrated the dense crossbows and had not yet dissipated.

It instantly crossed a distance of a thousand meters and crashed into the west city gate tower.

咚

Just above the west city gate, a nearly fifty-meter-long section of the city wall disappeared.

Along with the city defense soldiers, academy disciples, and two "bed crossbows" above, they were all shattered into dust by the earthquake silently.

Dust settled, forming a mound of earth nearly two meters high in front of the city gate.

The human city defense force suffered casualties for the first time, and there were no less than a hundred of them.

The lonely earthen grave under the city gate looked particularly desolate under the city wall where blood flowed like a river.

Hu Shizhong's eyes turned bloodshot instantly, his voice became hoarse, and his cracked lips could not help but tremble.

"Hu, Hu Chao?"

Hu Chao is his only son, and he is only 16 years old this year.

Although the young man is young, he has the bearing of a general.

He is a righteous man who is fair and just, and is very popular among his peers.

In addition, he has a good talent for fighting spirit and is already an early stage warrior at a young age. He has many suitors in the Huaiyuan Magic and Martial Arts Academy in Imperial City.
