Chapter 289 Soft-footed shrimp and bombing!
“pa ta pa ta ”
In the very rhythmic beat, the “Giant Hammer Mantis Shrimp” has slowly moved to the other side of the bastion, raised its upper body high again, In one second, he threw his “million-ton punch”!
Boom—! ! !
In the violent friction, the air was ionized with dazzling flames, and the masonry, iron cannons, and twisted human bodies rose into the air again.
The second lobe was destroyed!
However, the officers and soldiers stationed on this convex angle fort kept their determination and oath to fight to the end.
Until the last moment before the “Mantis Shrimp” attack, they are still pouring hot iron cannonballs and even lead bullets from ordinary muskets on this sea monster!
Because of their sacrifice and dedication, they finally won a first-line respite for the remaining comrades in arms.
The degree of damage to the chitin carapace on his body finally reached the point where even the sea monster had to pay attention to it. He took countless steps and slowly moved away from the bastion.
However, it was only temporarily away from the “middle embankment” where the 8-pounder gun remained, and it was still millions of miles apart from the complete return to the water.
And because of the lack of two lobed horns, the originally perfect firepower network of the “bastion” has appeared blind spots, so that this sea monster can be calmly trimmed.
Obviously, when it takes advantage of the Kraken’s powerful restorative abilities to regroup, it will mean the end of the Bastion!
However, the garrison on the bastion had already made a plan at this time.
A team of officers and soldiers who have been prepared for a long time is ready to go.
Headed by an adjutant who lost an arm in the attack of the “Mantis Shrimp”, and everyone has two heavy alchemy bombs hanging from their waists, a tragic atmosphere permeates the wall, obviously this It’s a Suicide Squad!
The back carapace of the “Great Hammer Mantis Shrimp” is extremely hard, even if a large-caliber artillery salvo is difficult to kill in a short period of time, but the abdomen that is not covered by heavy armor is not necessarily.
They are ready to attack from the abdomen of this “mantis shrimp”, creating opportunities for Major General Coverdale, who is also in poor condition at this time!
“Your Excellency General, please rest assured, we promise to complete the mission!”
The adjutant saluted the general for the last time with his remaining hand and solemnly promised.
The major general with a hard mind like iron opened his mouth at this time, but couldn’t utter a word for a long time.
Although this battle today is not the most disparate battle between the enemy and the enemy in the general’s life, it is the most embarrassing for him.
“Water Cannon Cetus” can only be passively defended and difficult to counterattack, “Giant Hammer Mantis Shrimp” can fight and be impeccable. There are also “Iron Armored Seahorse” and “Ghost Shrimp” who have never been involved in the siege in the periphery, still glare like a tiger watching his prey.
Now I have to send my close subordinates who have worked together for many years to die! Even the battle-hardened major general felt a deep sense of powerlessness
Finally, he took a deep look at his adjutant, and looked back as if he remembered the Suicide Squad team members who were short of arms and eyes, knowing that the time was running out. The general finally squeezed a word out of his teeth: “Go!”
The fort gate at the bottom had long since collapsed when the tsunami hit, and their only option now is the city wall.
The rope ladder was quickly lowered.
xiu! xiu! xiu!
When the adjutant took the lead to descend the fort, he was also noticed by the “water cannon whale” in the distance, and several water cannonballs fell on the stone castle body , causing the severely damaged “bastion” to give out continuous tremors.
Not to mention the “water cannonballs” whose rate of fire is not too fast. At this time, even knives in the sky can’t stop the “Suicide Squad”.
Climbing on the parapet on the edge of the “middle embankment”, the adjutant was about to slide down the rope ladder, but out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a group of snow-white seabirds flying into the distant sky.
The seabirds themselves are not surprising, but the strange thing is that they hold something in their claws and form a neat formation, like a well-trained air force.
Flickering——
At the same time, a needle-tailed swift came to the sky above the bastion and flew straight to the side of the major general standing on the “middle embankment”.
A clear message has been thrown directly into the general’s heart.
“Your Excellency General, I am Alwin. My seabird will launch an air attack on the sea monster soon. Please command the soldiers to cooperate in the attack.”
After being slightly surprised, the general immediately responded. Come over, immediately reached out and dragged the adjutant who had come outside the wall back.
“Quick! Quick! Quick! Gather all our small cannons and mobile musketeers on the “Middle Embankment”.”
The Solomon family from the Kingdom of Taro” “Zhuyu” was in front, and the senior management was of course not unfamiliar with wizard’s methods. When he received the news of the arrival of Alwin reinforcements, Coverdale was instantly refreshed.
The surviving garrison moved quickly. The 8-pounder gun was only a little more than a ton. In a short time, the remaining Six Sect 8-pounder guns were quickly moved to the one facing the “Giant Hammer Mantis Shrimp”. on the embankment.
Just finished setting up.
Already flying over the “Iron Armored Train”, the white seagull air force formation with a total of twenty began to dive and threw the [Powerful Voodoo Potion] in their claws.
They have long been familiar with this kind of work and already have a very high hit rate, even if it is a sea monster in constant motion.
In particular, the two strong hammer-shaped “sweeping limbs” of the “Giant Hammer Mantis Shrimp” are the key targets of seagulls!
Although the “Mantis Shrimp”, born only a few months ago, has amazing fighting intelligence, but its experience is far from enough. It simply doesn’t realize the threat of these flying little things above its head, and it doesn’t even bother to drive it away. drive away.
So, it paid the price for its carelessness.
bang! bang! bang!
The thick fog of dark green exploded on its upper body one after another, surrounding it in groups, and even the strong wind from the sea blew away.
Sizzling, sizzling, sizzling
In the corrosive sound of the melting carapace, the “Mantis Shrimp” finally realized that something was wrong, and began to roll quickly on the ground, trying to get rid of this terrifying poison mist .
Boom! Boom!
The earth shook and the mountain quivered up like a train derailed in an instant!
Actually.
Extraordinary power is also based on the physical body of matter. No matter how big the body becomes, the chitin shell composition of shrimp and crabs is similar.
Chitin, protein and calcium salts account for about one third each, which may be due to differences in living environment and species, but these three main substances will not change.
In the extremely unstable state of rampage, the [Powerful Voodoo Potion] that can even melt glass bottles can deal with the chitinous biological armor on the “Mantis Shrimp”, which is a thousand times stronger than artillery. hundred times.
It can be said that everything has its nemesis.
Given enough time for poison mist, this mighty sea monster may have nothing but chitin left in its carapace.
This is also the advantage of the wizard career. As long as you have sufficient preparation and design your response plan calmly, the wizard has almost no shortcomings.
Second Rank’s official wizard is not without examples of third rank professionals.
After struggling blindly for a minute, the “Mantis Shrimp”, which had left the shooting blind spot, quickly turned into a soft-footed shrimp.
The Major General saw the opportunity and immediately ordered: “Fire!”
bang! bang! bang!
The artillery fired in unison.
Even though it was only an 8-pounder this time, it achieved far more effects than a 32-pounder.
The biological armor, which was no worse than iron armor, became much thinner and more brittle at this time. Even a shell with a weight of only 1/4/2022 could easily knock a crack on its body. Even the buckshot is no longer ineffective.
However, even in the face of the double blow of poison mist and artillery fire, “Giant Hammer Mantis Shrimp” has no intention of returning to the sea to escape.
On the contrary, he changed his cautious style at the beginning, like a rampage, he used all his strength to charge towards the bastion that was closer to him than the sea!
bang bang bang
Because of the dissolution of calcium salts and protein denaturation and loosening, the violently vibrating nail leaves rubbed against each other and made a loud noise. The nearly 100-meter-long “giant hammer mantis shrimp” seems to be An out-of-control train slammed from the rammed earth slopes of the First Layer to the foot of the third lobe.
Raise your upper body, and once again hit the middle of the lobed horn with your own hammer!
Then.
ka-cha ——
The strange movement made it seem a little surprised.
He lowered his head, and all he saw was the severed limbs bubbling with the stench of green liquid!
The effect of force is mutual, and the powerful “sweeping limb” that is attacked by the key has long lost the hardness of the initial there is no stronghold one cannot overcome.
The huge force from the sea monster’s body collided with the rock fort, and the “heavy hammer” that was as crisp as a biscuit was directly smashed into pieces?
But don’t wait for it to react.
Two 32-pounder artillery guns on the salient fort, which was just a short distance away, had already fired at its head.
Boom!
Boom!
The carapace, whose structure has been almost completely destroyed, can no longer give it effective protection. Two 32-pound iron cannonballs easily penetrated into its head, tumbling and severing its central nervous system.
Clang!
This once unstoppable terrifying giant beast smashed to the ground.
The second large species, confirm the kill!
At the same time, nineteen large seabirds with larger bodies and higher loads also carried alchemy bombs to the high sky above the “water cannon humpback whale”.
An adversary out of reach for Bastion is nothing to the seabirds with air dominance.
Just to prepare for its “shelling”, “Black Feather Frigate Bird” and “Big Albatross” in the sky several hundred meters directly above this sea monster dropped alchemy bombs in their claws.
With the current intelligence of seabirds, they have been trained enough to use this easy-to-operate alchemical weapon.
Then.
Boom—! ! ! !
At this moment, the fire was soaring and the waves were surging.
The sea seems to have been overturned!
