Almighty Lord of Another World - Chapter 1280
Everyone heard the words and looked at it again. No, there are three stone walls with two beams of light shining vertically on them like parallel lines, and the source of the light is the sunlight transmitted from the dome of the temple!
It turns out that there is a huge crack on the steep top of the mountain where the temple is located. As long as it is from 10 am to 2 pm, sunlight can shine through this crack.
At this time, it was just around noon. The reason why it was possible to ensure that the beams of light reflected on the stone gates and walls would not move because there was a mechanism that was slowly moving along with the hydraulic drive.
From such a detail, we know how high the level of architecture and mathematics of the ancient Mayashu people is. Regardless of the fact that the hydraulic drive system is activated just after the temple is opened, the time synchronization system of the entire temple has been calibrated.
At this time, Luma didn’t need to remind him, the researchers present were not fools, and they saw the mystery all at once.
Within the scope of these six light beams, there are many pictures and texts, but there are only six texts representing numbers, and one from left to right.
“Hahahaha…” Everyone shook their heads and smiled bitterly. What is this, is it a brain teaser?
“Go try!” Cookson directly asked Luma to fiddle with the password. If the answer is correct, this is a reward for him.
“Yes, Professor!”
Luma turned the cipher plate on the stone gate in order. When the last number was switched to the position, everyone heard the sound of water behind the stone gate. After a while, the stone gate also slid to the right until it reached the position. Fully open.
“Successful!” Luma jumped high. He actually unlocked Shimen’s code by accidentally hitting it by mistake, and I believe that there will be a lot of rewards after the matter is over.
Still reloaded the mercenaries to start the way, and the others followed into the passage behind the stone gate.
The passage is not long, only less than ten meters.
But after walking out of the passage, everyone was stunned by the sight in front of them.
This is a world in the mountains!
There is another wide crack at the height of nearly 100 meters above the head, but the direction of this crack is not perpendicular to the ground, but at a somewhat inclined angle, which can ensure that sunlight can come in during the day, although not much But it’s enough to prevent things from being invisible here.
Xiao Qing followed closely behind the old man. Counting that three of them came to the edge of the city wall, there were almost 500 small arrows in his arms, and he didn’t know if they were enough.
This area of the city wall was built on the hillside, the place was much wider, and there was also a watchtower.
“Quickly, distribute the arrows!”
The old man turned his head and said, then he removed the noose from the bundle of arrows in his arms and put them into the wooden quiver beside the soldiers’ feet one by one.
Xiao Qing and the other red-haired boy had learned a lot, and they scattered and distributed arrows on the wall that was less than 30 meters away.
“The siege ladder is approaching! Three!”
“The melee team is ready!”
“drink!”
The three teams filed out from the tower and set up a posture to face off according to their positions.
A squad consists of five warriors. The front warrior is the strongest, holding a shield in one hand and either a heavy battle axe or a mace in the other hand; the two behind are wearing half-length armor and both hands are big swords; The last two only have symbolic wooden helmets, holding two-meter wooden halberds in their hands.
They are arranged in the shape of “people”, not delaying the archers next to them to shoot downwards.
Because these melee teams blocked their way, Xiao Qing and the others could only stay on the edge of the tower and hide behind the tower shield.
“ready–!”
“Hoo-drink!”
“what–!”
An archer with a throwing axe inlaid on his face fell on his back. The shield warrior next to him remained unmoved, still staring at the wall.
A shield warrior yelled, raised his shield and flew two flying short knives, his right hand swiped the mace from the rear from bottom to top, and he slammed it up on the highest point of the siege ladder. On the head of the enemy, the opponent’s head was smashed to pieces. The black liquid splashed on the wall and the shield warrior’s face was smashed. The body was also smashed down, causing a roar.
There are organs on the siege ladder, which can be firmly stuck on the wall so that the defender cannot push the siege ladder down in a short time, and can only face the climbing enemies one by one.
However, there is kerosene on the walls, and some people will pour kerosene on the siege ladder and burn them when the melee team is in control.
And Xiao Qing didn’t care about this at this time, but the figure of the enemy who had just glimpsed.
“Old… boss… our enemy… what is it??”
Xiao Qing took the old man’s arm, and his lips were uncomfortable.
The old-faced man grabbed his hand and said, “Orc in Tanganyika, are you scared?”
“Shrimp? Half…half orcs?”
“Yeah. Are you a newcomer? Every year when winter is approaching, these dogs will come out like this. They either break through the city to grab population and food, or die a large piece of them to make them the rations for the tribe to spend the winter.”
“What…what?! They actually eat their own people?” Xiao Qing’s eyes widened.
“Cut~www.mtlnovel.com~ The old-faced man drew his pipe from his waist, “What’s the matter, half-orcs will remove their arms and thighs and eat them when they are hungry. What’s so strange about eating the same clan. “
“Then they robbed the population before…”
“Oh, it used to be eaten as meat. Later, the leader of the half-orcs felt that our human race could grow the land, so they stopped eating it and became slaves. Only those who could not work or were sick would become the rations of half-orcs. “
“…” Through the gap in the shield wall, Ivan looked at the orcs who climbed up to fight with the melee team. They were similar to the image of the orcs in the movie “Lord of the Rings”, except that they had no armor, not even a fig leaf, and weapons. It is also very crude. Ironware is rarely basically made of stone or thick wood, relying on brute force attacks.
The shield warrior on the front changed the angle of the shield to avoid heavy blows. The halberd warriors behind jabbed at the upper body of the half-orc. The swordsman in the middle attacked the enemy’s waist, abdomen and bottom plate with a long sword. , Perform efficient beheading of the orcs who climbed up.
But the half-orcs don’t foolishly perform fueling tactics like food delivery. Sometimes they will climb two or more at the same time, and when they are about to climb to the top of the siege ladder, they will jump and jump to other positions.
This kind of operation allowed the archers who defended the city to withdraw only a part of them and project them to the outside under the city wall, while the original positions were all filled by melee fighters.
Xiao Qing and the others did not get under the wall, but kept caring for the wounded soldiers. The Diaolou has become a temporary shelter for wounded soldiers. The old man brought Xiao Qing and the red-haired boy to drag the wounded soldiers who could no longer fight back from the city wall, and then used simple methods to bandage the wounds.
