Chapter 265: Extensive Siege
Time passed quietly, and when Du You woke up again, he was awakened by the ground shaking.
Looking at my panel, my magic power has basically recovered to full value, and it is still a little short, which is harmless.
The shaking of the ground made everyone nervous. "Be quiet for me, and hide if you don't want to be discovered. You go up to see, report at any time, and don't let anyone discover your location."
The leader said to a person who was good at reconnaissance, the short but quite flexible person, after saluting, he quietly popped his head out and looked into the distance, talking about the situation over there.
At the same time, the two remaining Pegasus knights do not know how to communicate with the people in the city, and they can get the above orders at any time. It's just that the command above is to hold back.
They had been hiding behind the Sandman, not approaching. At this time, the sand man had already left his oasis camp, and rushed towards Baishicheng in a swarm. That's right, it's just a swarm, there is no formation at all, and there is no division of labor. If humans dare to attack the city like this, they are simply courting death.
It's just that sand people are different from humans. When approaching Baishicheng, the sand people in front of them are short and disappear. No, they didn't disappear, they burrowed into the thick sand.
In front of Baishicheng, the sand on the ground is very thick. After all, this place is originally close to the desert, and it has been transformed by sand people all the year round.
"Open the city defense magic circle, and this winter's war has begun. Don't worry, everyone, these murderers acted in a hurry this time, and the preparation is not enough, and it is absolutely impossible to threaten us."
In the rear, the logistical soldiers kept moving arrows and other items for defending the city to the city wall. They have been busy for two days, and they are still not finished. On the city wall, a large number of military supplies are now filling the city head.
A large number of sand people approached Baishicheng, but they hit the underground magical barrier of Baishicheng, and there was no way to move forward, and just emerged from below. A lot of people suddenly appeared under the city. If they were ordinary city soldiers, they would be shocked. But these Baishi Castle defenders have long been used to it.
And everyone's bows and arrows have long been aimed at that line. Seeing the sand people appear, the generals defending the city have already issued an attack order. Countless arrows rained down, and pieces of sand people fell to the ground.
With the strong physical quality of the sand people, facing this kind of attack, there is still no good defense measures.
The sand people rushed forward desperately, and there was no one with that shield or siege weapon, so they rushed over. But as they approached the wall,
The sand below suddenly changed.
Pieces of sand rose into the air, forming bridges one by one on the ground.
Taking a closer look, it turned out that the priests behind had activated their own spells.
Control sand, form bridges, this spell is not complicated. But with such a long distance, it is not so easy to make so many sand bridges of this size. In the rear, many sacrifices have already begun to prepare.
It is not surprising that the sand people stepped on these sand bridges and ran towards the city wall. Some of the soldiers turned the direction of the attack, and arrows flew out.
At the same time, some of the sand people's archers started fighting back. It's just that the archer on the Sandman's side is not a formal occupation, so everyone is part-time, and the arrows do not have any strength or special power.
Such arrows can only cause a little trouble to the soldiers defending the city.
At this moment, the sand sculpture knight in the air came flying. The special crossbow arrows that had been prepared for a long time suddenly became powerful.
One after another thick arrows shot straight into the air, and many sand sculpture knights fell in an instant. But at this moment, the sand sculpture knights were not afraid at all, not afraid of being attacked at all, and flew forward madly.
Because it is flying, the speed is relatively fast, so it is not so easy to hit. After three volleys of crossbow arrows, the sand sculpture knights came over the city. The Pegasus Knight, who had been prepared for a long time, greeted the past.
When the Pegasus Knights and the Sand Sculpture Knights are entangled together, the large crossbow arrows are misfired, and random attacks are likely to attack their own people.
Finally, the sand people's last weapon came out. In the back, strange creatures with round bodies came out. The body is spherical and the legs are short, but the soles of the feet are large. The height is more than four meters. But the monster's two arms are very thick, and the arms are raised high, and they can reach a height of six or seven meters, which is much longer than the monster itself.
A dozen monsters walked to the opposite side of the city and stood still, then rubbed their hands on the ground, and a huge ball was rubbed out. The two arms stretched back, and then threw the sand ball with force.
That terrifying force was almost the same as a large catapult. Moreover, this sand ball obviously contains a powerful magic power, and the attack power is not comparable to the stones thrown by the catapult.
The giant crossbow arrow, which seemed to have been prepared for a long time, shifted its target and turned to the balls. One after another crossbow arrows flew out, directly smashing a lot of balls in the air. But there were some that missed, and the two sides flew by in the air.
The crossbow arrow swept across the ball and fell behind the sand man, killing many of the sand man directly. But those monsters didn't come into range, so the crossbow bolts were useless against them.
On the contrary, those sand balls fell on the walls of White Rock City. It's just that a layer of gray light flashed on the city wall, completely blocking the sand ball, without causing the slightest fluctuation, this is the defensive effect of the magic circle.
The soldiers cheered for a while, and then continued the killing frenzy. When the soldiers in the front are tired, they will replace the people behind.
However, the deadly siege method of the sand people still makes people feel overwhelmed. Even if they have the advantage of defending the city, there are still sand people stepping on the city wall from time to time. On the side of the human soldiers, casualties gradually began to appear.
"The siege has reached a fever pitch, and the sandmen have fully invaded. In addition to logistics and sacrifices, only the dune monsters are left."
The sand people's attack has always been so rude, there is no such thing as a reserve team at all, they are just rushing forward. If you say it nicely, it's a wave, and if you say it badly, it's a mess.
Dune monsters are those weird creatures that throw sand balls. It seems that only sand people can communicate with them. This kind of creature can't be regarded as a monster because they are intelligent, but it can't be regarded as an intelligent race because there are too few. Moreover, these dune monsters did not have their own civilization, and lived like wild beasts.
