Crossing to Live in the Wilderness Plains - Chapter 212

It is not an easy task to face off against the huge group of Hyenas, and he has maintained a high level of tension, and even if the orcs take turns to rest, they still feel tired.

Before the sun went down, Chen Qi helped to cover up the exit of the cellar, and returned to the ice city wall with Aze. The appearance of the dragon group did not change, and it still didn’t seem to have any intention of attacking.

Today’s weather is a bit gloomy, the visibility around the mountain is almost as good as the moonless sun as soon as the sun sets, and it looks like a blizzard is about to come.

There are several fire trays lit in the watchtower, and the surrounding walls are made of wooden boards, which can only keep out the wind, but not keep warm. Many female sons sat in the watchtower nearby to catch up on sleep. Chen Qi had rested in the cellar for a while during the day, and now he took out some materials from his backpack and gave the female sons some cold soup to drink.

After the orcs had finished their dinner and had another group of guarding females, Chen Qi thought that the group of Hyena dragons would be as inactive as the previous days, but not long after nightfall, the alert signal sounded. , The orcs who were still sleeping suddenly woke up in an instant, picked up their weapons and walked out of the watchtower.

Outside, I can’t see my fingers, and there is no wind tonight, which makes it very quiet, but as long as I listen carefully, I can find a faint rustling sound like a heavy object breaking through the snow in the darkness outside the city.

A Zhang has already started to arrange in an orderly manner, and the females quickly returned to their positions. Chen Qi walked to the nearest battlement and looked outside, only to see a thick layer of darkness.

“It’s an iron armored dragon.” A Zehu was beside him to explain his confusion.

Seeing the two come out, A Zhang quickly said, “Aze, protect Chen Qi, the dragons are going to attack.”

Aze didn’t actually see the iron armored dragon. He heard the sound of his footsteps stepping on the snow. Chen Qi had a bad premonition in his heart. The eyesight of beasts is better than that of orcs. Choosing to attack on a night like this is not an easy task.

“Azhang, let someone light all the fire plates on the city wall.” In order to save firewood, the fire in the fire plate was only maintained at the minimum size that could illuminate the fire. The Luzhai outside the ice city wall was lit before. There is nothing else to illuminate in this backward environment.

A-Zhang didn’t ask Chen Qi why. Hearing the words, he quickly let people light up all the fire plates on the city wall, and the rows of fire lights quickly lit up, illuminating the ice city wall brightly. Aze took out a specially made arrow, bent the bow and set the arrow, and lit it on the fire plate. After the arrow was fully burned, he shot it towards the outside of the city wall.

The weak light pierced through the darkness like a firefly, and everyone’s eyes followed the direction of the arrows flying away. Even though the fire was weak, with the eyesight of the females, they could still see the dense crowd approaching the ice city wall with such a little light. Countless Ironclads and Hyenas.

Chen Qi breathed a sigh of relief, and A Zhang’s face was not very good. In such an environment, the bow and arrow could not be aimed at all, but even if the arrow was wasted, at this time, there was no other way besides attacking.

The objects used for throwing on the catapult were replaced by a special kind of flammable fireballs. After being ignited, they were thrown towards the outside. Most of the fireballs fell on the icy snow and went out after a while, but some of them remained tenacious. Burning, thanks to these fireballs, the hit rate of the arrows has also increased a lot, even if it can’t be fatal in one blow, at least it can leave a lot of wounds on the Hyena Dragon.

The siege crossbow responded with a wave of attacks, and Chen Qi felt that the entire ice city wall shook, as if it had been hit by something heavy. Throwing a torch lit in his hand under the city wall, he saw that the iron armored dragon had rushed to the foot of the city wall and launched an attack.

Because there are not many iron products, the spikes buried on the ice city wall are all made of wood or sharpened bamboo. The iron armored dragon relies on its thick skin and thick flesh, so it doesn’t look at these spikes at all, and only hits After two clicks, many spikes broke, and the group of Hyena dragons, who were guarded by the Iron Armored Dragon, began to destroy the wall of the ice city wall.

“Splash grease.”

Following A-Chang’s order, the plates of oil that had been boiled repeatedly for a few days fell from the sky. The iron armored dragon at the foot of the city wall was scalded and screamed again and again, and a flaming arrow shot into it. An iron armored dragon covered in grease, the back of the iron armored dragon quickly ignited a fire, it shouted and withdrew from the first echelon, and the dragons behind gave it a place one after another.

The flaming iron armored dragon left the city wall and rolled on the spot, pressing the burning back onto the snow. The cold snow reduced the heat of the back. As it moved, the fire gradually decreased until it was pressed. extinguish.

The other dragons that were ignited by the grease quickly extinguished the fire just like the iron armored dragon. Of course, some were frightened by the fire and ran rampant. Finally, their entire backs were scorched to the point of dying and collapsed to the ground. The arrow took the life with one arrow.

The fat was frozen hard. Except for those that had been boiled all the time, other fats could not be thawed for a while. With the protection of the Iron Armored Dragon, the lethality of the arrows was not enough. Shang made an opening, A Zhang saw that the situation was not right, and hurriedly asked some people to transport the temporarily useless weapons back to the second city wall.

“Chen Qi, it’s almost impossible to hold here, you and A Ze go back to the city wall first.” A Zhang shot a hyena dragon that was too late to hide under the iron armored dragon, and turned to Chen Qi.

Chen Qi glanced at the chaotic dragon group under the city wall, put away his crossbow/arrow, and did not insist, climbed onto Aze’s back, and the two returned to the second city wall along the nearest rope ladder.

Because the dragons started to attack from all sides at the same time, as the gap under the ice city wall became larger and larger, the entire wall of the ice city wall began to shake. For the sake of safety, all the melting grease was poured down. , A-Zhang ordered everyone to retreat. Many hyena dragons have already got into the hollowed-out wall holes. This ice city wall cannot be defended. It is only a matter of time when the entire wall is opened. .

The ice city wall was widened a lot during the construction, almost twice as wide as last year’s ice city wall. Even if many hyena dragons have drilled into the wall and destroyed it, it would be difficult to penetrate the entire ice city wall. It was not a simple matter, and it also bought a lot of time for Ah Zhang to withdraw all the resources on the ice city wall.

Chen Qi helped light up the fire plate on the second city wall, and when all the orcs had withdrawn, he helped free the rope ladder connecting the two city walls. When the last rope ladder fell into the underground where the fingers could not be seen, a huge rumbling sound rang out, and it could be seen from the torches lit on the original ice city wall and some fire plates that were discarded there, the huge ice city wall turned out to be the entire It collapsed, and many Hyena dragons, who were responsible for destroying the wall, were buried under the huge white ice blocks and did not move.

There are also several deer villages arranged in the ice city wall. Although many were destroyed by the collapsed ice city wall, countless rockets fell from the sky and set the scattered deer villages on fire. Finally, the dark plain was lit by fire. Illuminated, the figures of the dragons standing outside the ice city wall also appeared in the sight of the orcs.

It was densely packed, just like the group of hyena dragons that Chen Qi had seen before.

The leading Iron Armored Dragon stepped on the broken ice and walked towards Qi Ze City step by step. The Hyena Dragon who followed behind made bursts of hoarse low-pitched shouts, not knowing that they were cheering them for breaking the orcs. The city wall is still beckoning the companions behind to hurry up and keep up.

At this moment, a wolf howl sounded in the tribe. It was not the sound that the orcs usually used to warn of danger, but the cry of a little wolf cub, with a milky sound that had not yet fully grown.

“There are Hyena dragons here.” As the wolf howls sounded, there was also a shout from the inner city wall. It was a shout from a few female guards who were sticking to the inner city wall.

Chen Qi’s heart suddenly burst, why is there a dragon in the inner city wall? Did the Hyena Dragon find a way to make a hole again? But in addition to the huge pothole trap on the ground, there is a moat more than ten meters deep. The riverside of the moat is full of stone lanterns. Chen Qi didn’t see any sign of the river water decreasing.

Of course, Chen Qi soon knew where those Hyena dragons came from.

Under the hood of a huge black shadow, A Ze hugged Chen Qi and rolled away on the spot, but the fire plate next to him was smashed by the shadow. adult hyena.

The wind that suddenly appeared on his head hadn’t disappeared yet. Chen Qi raised his head and found that a huge pterosaur was leaning over and rushing towards the two, and there was another pterosaur beside it, and the pterosaur was sharp. Under his sharp claws, he was holding a Hyena dragon and dropping it down.

Chen Qi’s pupils shrank slightly, these pterosaurs took advantage of the attention of the orcs just now to be attracted by the iron armored dragons who were attacking, and transported the hyena dragons to the tribe through the night.

“All the crossbows are aimed at the pterosaurs in the sky.” Chen Qi shouted to the surrounding orcs who had not yet reacted to the sudden situation.

Pterosaurs did not dare to drop Hyena dragons from too high places. When they lowered their height, they appeared within the range. Pterosaurs’ fur defense was not as high as that of Iron Armored Dragons, and their fur defenses were even more powerful. Hyena dragons are inferior, and even a wooden bow is lethal enough to pierce their fur.

Aze was the first to react, and before the pterosaur threw himself in front of the two, he had already drawn an arrow from behind him, bent the bow, and flew towards the pterosaur almost without aiming at the arrow. go with. Aze’s arrows were very good. The arrow hit the pterosaur between the eyebrows. Unfortunately, he was too close to exert force. The arrow only sunk into the flesh by an inch, and did not kill the pterosaur directly.

But being shot between the eyebrows still caused the pterosaur to lose its sense of pain. The blood slid down and covered its eyes. The pterosaur reflexively wanted to stay away from the danger. With its wings down, its body quickly retreated and jumped up a lot. distance.

A Ze originally wanted to take the opportunity to pick it up again and shoot the pterosaur directly, but the Hyena dragon that hit the fire plate just now stood up and roared and rushed towards A Ze.
