Chapter 65 on(1/2)
"Boom——!"
"Ouch-ouch—!"
"Here we come, let the magician get ready." I pulled the bolt of the gun and loaded a special 20mm armor-piercing incendiary bomb, and then immediately lowered the angle and aimed at the ogre who was charging with hundreds of ogres.
leader.
But I didn't plan to shoot at it, because the shot that interrupted the ogre leader's feeding gave me a very headache. Although the armor-piercing bullet accurately hit its palm, the warhead stuck.
It didn't penetrate its hand, and it finally pulled it off. This was simply terrifying.
Therefore, the ogre leader can only be suppressed by Diana and Celine who went down below with magic. The priority to be eliminated now is the other ogres. Those ordinary ogres are much easier to deal with.
Let Kana and Liz use machine guns and grenades to reduce the number, while Puffy and I need to specifically target the few ogre magicians who can use magic among them, because these guys are more threatening to a certain extent.
No less than that ogre leader.
At this moment, the guard members below have been awakened by a large change. Almost all human soldiers have been pulled to both sides to suppress the harassment of ordinary monsters. The ones facing the ogre army in the middle are left to the elf rangers and magicians. After all,
It is really difficult for ordinary weapons to cause any effective damage to the ogres, and the human camp really needs a good rest, so now they have replaced most of the overtired wounded and left the last one that still has combat effectiveness.
The crossbow corps.
"Boom -" After a loud noise, the head of the ogre magician in the scope who was about to use magic was shattered into a pile of pulp.
I quickly adjusted my breathing rhythm, then pulled the gun bolt to reload and continued to search nervously for the next target. After all, the ogres charge very fast, and we must annihilate most of the ordinary eater before they enter the designated location.
Human demons, and neither I nor Puffy are professional snipers, and there are no observers to search for targets for us. At the same time, the grenade bombing by Cana and Liz led to confusion and concealment of the target group, allowing us to hunt.
It has become more complicated.
"Erica! That place on the left side of the leader holding the torch!" Just as I was hunting another target, Puffy's notification sound came from the earphones.
I immediately loaded the gun and turned the angle to lock on the location she mentioned, and very clearly observed an ogre wearing a helmet there with two sneaky ogre magicians behind him. I didn't say anything.
I fired a shot at one of them, but unfortunately, I missed the shot. The bullet did not hit the two ogre magicians, but hit the head of the helmeted ogre in front.
It exploded. At the same time, because of the tragic death of their companions, the two ogres ran away and hid behind other ogres. I tried to track the target and continue hunting, but after killing one of them, I lost the other.
A goal.
"Tsk! You're as cunning as a mouse! Aren't you ogres supposed to be simple-minded types?"
And just when I was complaining casually, suddenly a fireball the size of a football roared and flew towards us. From the perspective of flight, this was definitely the "Fireball" magic used to target us on the stone tower, and it didn't even hit us.
It was not shot from the ogre team directly in front. When I glanced at the fireball with the corner of my eye, I had no time to dodge. I saw that the fireball was about to fly to a distance of less than 10 meters from us, and just when I tried
When I was holding my head for protection, my eyes suddenly lit up. A golden shield-shaped magic structure appeared out of thin air and blocked the fireball.
No need to think about it, this is definitely Desmo's handiwork. It seems that this stone tower is not a simple building, it seems to have a certain magical defense ability. But then again, for the first time, I feel that I have
The weapons cannot fully cope with a battle of this scale, but looking back and thinking about it carefully, it seems to be excusable. After all, my weapons are not prepared for war. Small-scale battles may indeed have many advantages, but in the face of
A battle of this level seems very strenuous. Maybe... after this battle is over, I should spend some money to get some real "war weapons" from Hex just in case.
"Erica, how are you doing there? Are you injured?" While I was distracted thinking about the problem, Diana asked nervously from the earphones.
"It doesn't matter..." I calmed down and continued to hunt a new target. Then I opened fire at the ogre army that was about to rush into the designated place and asked: "We are fine here, how about you?"
The enemies are coming soon, are the magic traps ready?"
"It's okay, but... there are too many ogres, can we reduce them more?" Diana's answer surprised me.
Because we mentioned something before when specifying the plan, the magic trap used to ambush the ogre leader was temporarily modified using the trap vines below. Diana said that theoretically it should be able to completely deal with these ogres.
But the premise is to hunt down as many ogre magicians as possible, because they may be able to use magic to resist the suppression ability of the trap. But now the result she gave me is that there are too many ogres and I request to reduce the number. This
Doesn't it mean that things are not going well on Diana's side?
I looked at the large group of ogres in front who continued to charge despite grenade bombing and machine gun fire. I took a deep breath, then immediately got up from the shooting position and quickly rushed to the side of the AGS-30 and replied: "No problem!
"
"Bang-bang-bang-bang-bang..."
I tried my best to stabilize the grip of the AGS-30 and then fired intensively like crazy, because I also felt that there were too many ogres on the opposite side, and it was really difficult to suppress it in a short time just by relying on the suppression effect of three grenade launchers.
Annihilate more than half of the enemies.
"Click-"
"Tsk! Is it empty?"
After I fired all the grenades in the magazine, I didn't rush to change the magazine. Instead, I directly picked up a nearby RShG-1, quickly opened the safety and aimed it at the dense enemy closest to the ogre leader.
"Shua——"
I fired the thermobaric bomb directly without even taking careful aim, because the enemies were so dense that I didn't need to take too careful aim at all. I just needed to calculate the advance and fire it directly.
Watching the thermobaric bomb hit the enemy directly and explode quickly, at least 5 ogres were killed instantly. At the same time, the ogres within ten meters from the center of the explosion also suffered varying degrees of casualties.
.
This was far from enough. The ogres didn't even stop because of the explosion, so I changed to an RShG-1 again without any hesitation and continued shooting.
"Uh-"
"Shua——"
"Shua——"
I shot many RShG-1s in succession, and the relatively dense explosion effect finally made the ogres on both wings hesitate a little, and slowly slowed down their pace. I felt relieved and rubbed my shoulders, and then planned to continue using warm water.
I continued to press the bullets, but when I turned around to fumble for weapons, I found that the RShG-1 had been used up. After all, I didn't prepare many RPGs of this type, but fortunately I still had a few TBG-7Vs, so I quickly added another.
Changed to PSRL-1 and continued shooting.
The loud noise from the RPG was constantly roaring in my ears. Even if I wore noise-canceling headphones, it still felt "deafening". And I always felt a little uncomfortable after wearing the headphones for a long time, but even so, I had no intention of taking off the headphones.
The thought, because the loud noises of various grenade machine guns and anti-materiel rifles on both sides are still roaring at this moment, I don't dare to do this now.
"150 meters...130...120..."
I was calculating the distance between the ogres while mechanically shooting with the RPG. At this moment, my mood was extremely calm. It seemed that I had returned to the past mercenary era. Although my mind didn't want to be distracted, I still didn't know what was going on.
I felt like I recalled some battle scenes from the past.
"Well... I remember... the battle in Azerbaijan seemed to be very similar to here... I wonder how everyone is doing now..."
"Erica! 11 o'clock! There is an enemy!"
Just when I was immersed in the memories of the past, I suddenly heard Liz's alarm coming from the earphones. Because the alarm came so suddenly, I didn't aim well for a while and shot this shot directly.
TBG-7V. I glanced at the location of the explosion worriedly. Fortunately, it was not too far off, and at least it still killed three unlucky ogres.
I quickly put down the PSRL-1 and took a look at the position Liz warned me about before. I found a bunch of dark shadows moving in the distance over there. I was sure there was an enemy, but I just didn’t know what they were.
After all, it's not a war zone, and we don't have extra light sources to illuminate it. But according to my visual inspection, these things don't look like ogres, because the way the shadows shake doesn't match those of ogres.
"Puffy, can you see over there clearly?" I walked to the ammunition box, picked up the last TBG-7V and loaded it in. Then I waited for Puffy's answer to decide whether to put this last TBG in.
Try shooting -7V over there.
But what was a little surprising was that Puffy seemed to have spent a long time without replying to me. I glanced at her nervously and found that she still didn't seem to turn off the detection magic, but it didn't look like she hadn't seen anything.
Look.
"Erica..." After almost half a minute, Puffy turned off her magic and planned to report to me, but before she could finish speaking, I saw several bright light sources suddenly rising from elsewhere and flying over.
In the sky over there, the dark area instantly became as bright as day, and at the same time we all saw clearly the true face of the enemy.
"I'm afraid... uh, no, it's a stone-skinned lizard?!"
Under the bright light source from high in the sky, a dozen large monsters on the ground that looked like giant trucks were revealed in front of us. These were exactly the kind of large... lizards we had learned about before. They seemed to be what we had seen from the projection before.
It is still not as shocking as seeing it with my own eyes, and I am sure that if these monsters charge over, the wall below alone will never be able to stop their collision.
Fortunately, the sudden appearance of the light source disrupted the charge of the lizards, causing them to stop in place and look around in a daze. Taking this opportunity, I quickly checked the direction of the light source. It was at the edge of the mushroom forest.
But what was a little surprising was that the landforms at the edge of the mushroom forest that I saw seemed to be inconsistent with what I remembered.
The terrain there obviously has traces of artificial construction. The terrain has a relatively neat trapezoidal topography. The ground is also covered with large-scale horses made of mushroom wood. Even some huge rocks are hung from the mushroom trees above the head.
A kind of trap.
This was obviously preparations made by Aurora and others to face the enemy, but I didn't see any figures there. It seemed that it was not a defensive position to hold, but more like... a trap deliberately attracting monsters.
After seeing the layout over there, I slowly put down the PSRL-1 in my hand, because I felt that Aurora was already prepared, so I didn't want to make any more trouble, and the last TBG-7V was still
It's more appropriate to leave it to the ogres. After all, this type of explosive is more effective against humanoid monsters, because I'm afraid... The layer of skin of the stone-skinned lizard is quite strong, and it's better to use it than cloud bombs.
Armor-piercing bullets are more suitable.
And just when I was about to stop looking over there, I suddenly saw a stone-skinned lizard over there with its head split open, and then it lay on the ground and started twitching. At the same time, people also came out of the forest.
A few green-blue light beams were directly inserted into the group of large lizards who were in a daze, and the group of guys were not slow to react. Without saying a word, they turned around and rushed into the direction of the mushroom forest.
The rest of the matter over there will be left to Aurora and the others, and I am sure that she will never let me down. I raised the corners of my mouth and smiled knowingly, and then faced the ogre who had just entered the target location.
They fired the last TBG-7V. And this shot I did not aim at the ordinary ogres, but directly aimed at the leading ogre leader.
The bright explosion flames instantly burst out on its belly. At that moment, I also saw several ogres standing on both sides of the leader being directly torn apart by the impact of the explosion, but I didn't think this was the case.
The attack will kill the leader, but at the very least it has to be injured, and at the worst it has to blow up a layer of its skin.
To be continued...
