Bloodline Lord of War - Chapter 164
Chapter 164 Steel Heavy Arrow
The Iron Guard’s troops are still equipped with the same equipment as before, with heavy armor, tomahawks, hammers and heavy square shields. Forty Iron Guards form a square formation, like a huge iron king, and no one can break their tortoise shells .
The equipment of the half-elf has been further upgraded. Now all the half-elf archers have been promoted to the second level of bloodline, and their strength has also increased greatly. There is no problem at all with strong bows and heavy arrows.
Before this expedition, the ingenious Aisha improved the elf longbow used by the half-elf, using new materials and technology, which further improved the pulling force of the elf longbow, so that the arrows shot out had more destructive power.
In order to cooperate with the use of the second-generation elf longbow, Robin specially asked Janna to purchase a batch of brand new heavy arrows from Silver Frost City. The characteristic of this kind of heavy arrow is that it is big and heavy. The arrow is made of fine steel. It not only has a super armor-piercing ability, but also has an outstanding ability to damage the body. It can even shoot people’s heads with one arrow!
Of course, matching its powerful power, the price of this heavy arrow is also quite beautiful.
However, as long as the enemy can be killed, Robin will not feel bad no matter how much money he spends.
Robin knew that the vampire warriors he faced this time would be difficult to kill, so he specially upgraded the half-elf’s weapons and equipment so that the half-elf’s long-range attacks could also play a huge role.
In stark contrast to the excitement of the iron guards, the half-elves are always calmer and calmer. Captain Luke is standing in front of the half-elf army formation, leading all the half-elves to check their equipment and do pre-battle preparations. Final preparations.
At this time, behind the Raging Waves Legion, on a high ground dozens of meters away, Baron Lauren and a group of Rock City officers were standing there, looking at the Raging Waves Legion below.
They also heard the shouts of the iron guards just now, even the patter of rain could not cover the loud voices of the highlanders. Forty highlanders shouted together, and they could hear clearly even above the dark clouds.
“The morale of Baron Robin’s army is not bad, it seems like that.”
Baron Lauren looked at the Raging Waves Legion from a distance with a gloomy face, and made a haughty comment. From the very beginning, he didn’t think highly of Robin’s army.
In Baron Lauren’s opinion, he doesn’t pay attention to anyone in the wilderness coalition this time except Earl Longji’s troops. Although Baron Joseph of the giant wooden castle has a lot of troops, he is just a group of stragglers and nothing to fear.
“My lord, with all due respect, morale alone is useless. What kind of fighting power can an army composed of highlanders and half-elves have?” The cavalry captain stood behind Baron Lauren, his face full of disdain.
“But I heard that Baron Robin relied on this group of highlanders and half-elves to defeat Baron Baron of Windcastle.” Another officer said.
The captain of the cavalry sneered contemptuously: “So what? I met Baron Baron once. He was arrogant and stupid. His failure is not surprising.”
After saying this, the cavalry captain seemed to feel that what he said was too absolute, so he went back and added a few more sentences.
“Well, even if we assume that each of these highlanders and half-elves is really a warrior, but their strength is too small, you and I are both leading troops, and we should all understand that no matter how elite soldiers are, if they cannot form Scale, that is, a thin needle used to guide the thread, no matter how sharp it is, it cannot kill the enemy, at most it can make the enemy hurt.”
Regarding the cavalry captain’s last words, the other three officers also nodded in agreement.
While these Rock City officers were talking about it, the Raging Wave Legion was ready for the final battle.
Robin stood in front of the army formation of the Raging Waves Legion, tore off the black cloak on his body, and handed it to the subordinate Seaman beside him. He was dressed in black three-layer heavy armor, standing in the rain like an iron man, letting the cold autumn rain hit his resolute face.
Robin’s weapon is a two-handed sword, which weighs nearly a hundred catties. Standing on the ground, the hilt can stick to Robin’s chin.
Such a heavy sword, not to mention using it by ordinary people, will be tired and out of breath even after carrying it for a few steps. But Robin held it with one hand, lifting it lightly, as if he couldn’t feel the weight of the great sword.
Although Robin often wears a cross sword that is almost synonymous with knights, also called knight swords, but in fact it is more of a status symbol. On the battlefield, Robin still has to rely on this two-handed sword. Compared with the shorter knight sword, the two-handed sword can better display his Titan power.
Robin turned around and looked at his own army. Iron guards and half-elves each formed an army formation. The expression of each soldier was as firm as iron. In the pattering autumn rain, the Raging Waves Legion was like a silent beast.
Now, the beast has opened his eyes, and he is going to eat people.
“Smaug!”
Robin yelled, and then a green dwarf immediately ran out from behind the army formation.
Smaug ran up to Robin with his short legs, and stood up straight. He hammered his left chest with his fist and gave a military salute.
“Smaug, report!”
Smaug was also wearing a silver armor at this time, and because of his short stature, no suitable armor could be bought in the market, so his armor was specially made by the blacksmith of the Silver Frost City entrusted by Janna.
Smaug managed the wilderness natives of Raging City well. He contributed a lot in mining and building the city walls. This set of iron armor was a reward given to him by Robin.
However, because of Smaug’s average physical fitness, this set of armor is actually a set of light armor with limited protection capabilities. If he wears too heavy armor, he will not be able to run.
When the blacksmith heard that he was going to make armor for goblins, he almost popped his eyes out in surprise. But for the sake of the gold coins, the blacksmith did as he did, just thinking that these aristocratic lords really knew how to play.
“Use your dragon battle cry.” Robin said to Smaw’s Revolutionary Order. Before the official battle, he must first add a status to the army.
“Yes, sir!”
Smaug turned around and walked to the army formation of the Raging Waves Legion. In previous battles, he had used [Dragon Cry] on the Raging Waves Legion many times, so he was already familiar with this dragon vein magic.
Smaug took a deep breath, and his stomach bulged up. At this moment, the magic power in his body gathered at his throat, and then he opened his mouth suddenly, and let out a deafening dragon roar .
“Aoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!”
It was hard to imagine that Smaug could make such a loud roar from his short body. The huge roar of the dragon seemed to be able to penetrate the heaven and the earth, sweeping away towards the surroundings with an unrivaled kingly pressure.
Robin and the Raging Wave Legion were bathed in the roar of the dragon, and suddenly felt a hot force erupting from their bodies, and a faint red light appeared on the surface of their bodies immediately. Although the red light is not bright, it is particularly conspicuous in the dark rainy day, as if every soldier is covered with a layer of red gauze cloak.
The battle cry of the dragon is an increase for Robin and the others. It can increase strength, strengthen the will to fight, and suppress the pain when injured. But it is a kind of spiritual blow to the enemy, like a heavy hammer, hitting the enemy’s heart fiercely.
On the high ground, Baron Lauren and a group of officers were taken aback. Everyone showed surprised expressions. Hearing the roar of the dragon, they felt inexplicably flustered and instinctively wanted to escape from here.
The knight captain shouted in panic: “What did that goblin do?”
Baron Lauren frowned. He looked at the Raging Wave Legion in the distance, and guessed in astonishment: “It sounds… like a dragon’s roar!”
“Dragon Roar?!”
All the officers at the back exclaimed in unison. Although they are knights, none of them have heard what a real dragon roar looks like.
Baron Lauren looked at Smaug beside Robin, feeling unbelievable in his heart: A goblin who can roar a dragon? By the gods, I am not dreaming, am I?
Baron Lauren feels that his long-standing world view is about to collapse. Is this still the stupid, dirty, and worthless green-skinned goblin in the impression of the imperial people?
The vanguard has been marching for so long, and Baron Lauren has seen Smaug a few times. He thought Smaug was Baron Robin’s squire, and he thought it was strange, wondering why Baron Robin kept an ugly goblin by his side?
He even laughed at Robin in private because of this, thinking that Robin, as a proud nobleman, has fallen into the company of goblins, which is simply a disgrace to the nobles of the empire.
Now Baron Lauren finally understands that this humble goblin actually has such amazing abilities, and this dragon roar is obviously some kind of augmentation magic!
Lord Robin, how did he find a goblin who can only use magic?
Baron Lauren feels that this fact is too incredible, even beyond his cognition.
On the wall of the blood fortress, the blood servant Kazan was also taken aback by the sudden dragon roar, but because of the original blood flowing in his body, this more or less withstood the mental impact of the dragon’s battle roar. Compared with the officers in the city, he was minimally affected.
As for those hobgoblins, gnolls, and bear goblins, because they have been bathed in the original blood, they have already lost the most instinctive fear of creatures. They have no spiritual world at all, and of course they will not be greeted by the battle roar of the dragon. Mental shock.
“The battle roar of the dragon!” Kazan showed a surprised expression. “Interesting, it turned out to be a dragon vein goblin.”
Obviously, Kazan is more knowledgeable than the officers in Rock City.
“Using the battle roar of the dragon to enhance the combat effectiveness of the soldiers is a good idea, but even so, the number of troops is still too small.” Kazan sneered disdainfully.
“Although the battle cry of the dragon is magical, it can only turn one into two, and it is impossible to turn one into ten.”
Then, Kazan saw that the human army in the distance began to move.
He saw a group of half-elfs coming out of the army formation. These pointed ears bent their bows and set arrows in the open space. They pulled a pair of green elf longbows like a full moon. The arrows pointed obliquely at the sky, aiming at the Blood Clan Fortress. side.
“Lord Kazan, the enemy seems to be shooting arrows at us.” The hobgoblin officer stood beside Kazan, his gray-green face full of doubts.
Kazan also found it strange, and also showed a puzzled expression: “What is this human army doing? Such a long distance, nearly 300 meters, and it is still rainy, it is impossible for them to shoot over. Even if they really shoot Come here, what can I do? There is no way to kill my blood warriors with bows and arrows.”
As soon as Kazan finished speaking, the half-elven troops on the opposite side released a wave of arrows. The dense arrows first climbed obliquely into the air, and when they flew to the highest point, the arrows began to descend rapidly, drawing a beautiful line in the air. of the parabola.
“My lord, they really shot arrows.” The hobgoblin officer exclaimed in surprise.
“Hmph, it’s a waste of effort.” Kazan sneered disdainfully.
But as soon as he laughed, a heavy arrow fell from the sky along with the rain, hitting the hobgoblin officer beside him.
“Puchi” sound of flesh and blood being separated, the heavy arrow directly shot through the hobgoblin’s head, passed through the middle of his head, took away a large piece of flesh and blood, and then pierced deeply into the city wall with a ding .
The hobgoblin officer didn’t make any sound, his strong body fell straight, and with a muffled “bang”, he fell on the city wall.
It took a second for Kazan to react suddenly. He turned around in astonishment, and saw a blood hole the size of a bowl was shot on the face of the hobgoblin officer, and Yin Hong’s blood flowed out together with the milky white brain. .
Kazan’s pale face immediately revealed a shocked expression: “What’s going on?”
Then, more heavy steel arrows fell on the city wall, and hobgoblin archers began to fall one after another. Kazan was surprised to find that these half-elf archers could not only shoot arrows, but also had amazing accuracy, almost able to bite flesh.
Robin’s half-elf archers have all mastered the blood skill [Long Range Shooting]. It is not difficult for them to send arrows to the wall of the blood fortress three hundred meters away.
The new type of fine steel heavy arrows used by the half-elves are amazingly lethal. If the arrow is shot in the arm, the entire arm will be shot down. If the arrow is shot in the torso of the body, the strong hobgoblin will even be nailed to the city wall by the heavy arrow. Or fall from the wall;
Both of them are still lucky. If the arrow is shot directly in the head, then the hobgoblin archer will be completely gone, and their heads will be shot directly!
After a wave of arrows rained, more than 20 hobgoblin archers fell on the city wall immediately. Kazan saw it, and his heart was bleeding.
Every blood warrior who has been bathed in original blood is a precious treasure of Blood King City. In order to produce such a super soldier with super vitality, it takes a lot of resources and effort.
Moreover, Kazan only has so few troops under his command, if all of them are wiped out, then he will have no right to speak in the Blood King City in the future.
“All hobgoblin archers, get down!”
Kazan squatted down in embarrassment and hid behind the parapet, without any of his previous elegant appearance. At the top of his voice, he shouted anxiously at the other hobgoblin archers.
