Chapter 538 Siege
There is an orange glow on the horizon, and the mountains are endless black. The two are connected in the distance. If you ignore the strange smell, it can still be regarded as a beautiful scenery.
Shen Wenchen held a curved bow in his hand, narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked down at everything under the city wall.
The monster under the city wall also looked up at him in an almost twisted posture.
Under the gray-blue skin are increasingly obvious black blood vessels, the sharp teeth are very conspicuous, and the erect pupils make people's hair stand on end.
No wind.
The monster under the city wall suddenly dodged and came towards the city wall at an extremely fast speed.
Shen Wenchen bent his bow and nocked an arrow, a sound broke through the air, and the arrow went straight towards the monster's face.
It ducked sideways, and the arrow grazed its shoulder. In an instant, flames burst out and burst into a cloud of fire mist.
The blue-grey skin was burned by the fire, and the smell of burnt flesh was extremely unpleasant.
However, there was no fear on its face, and the corners of its raised lips seemed to be mocking their self-righteousness.
"put--"
The shouts started, arrows rained out, and for a while, fire was everywhere under the city wall. Some were hit directly in front of the door and fell down in the firelight.
More people went straight to the city wall, hoping to climb the city wall.
Nanzhi had just given birth, and Shen Wenchen had to leave before he could spend more time with her.
This incident made him very angry.
Now seeing them all ready to attack the city in one fell swoop, the anger in my heart has reached its peak.
Shen Yanluo appeared on the battlefield again, and everyone was stunned.
"I just said, General Shen is Shen Yanluo!"
The soldiers on the side shouted stupidly.
"You kid, be careful!"
The elder brother who was traveling with him saw that he was distracted, stretched out his legs and kicked him, blocking the gap for him.
Dozens of monsters scrambled to climb up, and the sound of fingernails scraping against the wall was constant, reaching people's ears and making them feel sour.
Seeing that the leader was about to come up, Shen Wenchen drew his sword and stabbed him.
Those who hold up their swords and do not attack are fools. At this time, it is necessary to take advantage of their unpreparedness and kill them without haste.
After cutting off one of its hands, Shen Wenchen's eyes only deepened a little.
"You can't stop us."
It seemed not to notice the pain in its hands, and the corners of its cracked mouth raised, revealing two rows of white teeth.
Shen Wenchen frowned and spat in front of it.
"You are so ugly. The more I look at you, the uglier you get!"
The thing seemed to be stunned and didn't react for a moment. Shen Wenchen took the opportunity to raise his hand and cut off its head with a sword.
When it felt that the neck was light, the thing seemed to react, and its vertical pupils widened.
It's dead?
Seeing the head flying high and about to fall heavily, Shen Wenchen shot another arrow at the falling head uneasily.
Fire spread out, burning his head into a fireball. Seeing the translucent insect twisting crazily, Shen Wenchen raised his eyebrows and sneered.
You're a broken insect, what are you talking about?
Monsters climbed up one after another, using both explosive balls and tar, and it seemed particularly difficult.
The people stationed at the remaining three city gates cannot be mobilized at will, and they can only rely on them to defend the city.
These things are definitely impossible without back-ups!
Fires filled the sky lighting up half of the city. The people hiding in the houses only wrapped their faces in quilts and waited quietly for dawn.
"Here we go again! Be careful!"
When the cry started, monsters struggled to climb up the city wall, flames shot into the sky, and the smell of blood gradually filled the air.
The injured people were continuously carried down, and the remains of monsters were scattered under the city wall.
Black grease was mottled all around, and a disgusting smell filled the air, making people sick.
Human physical strength is limited, but monsters' physical strength seems to be infinite. Even if their limbs are broken, they will crawl forward on the ground.
Looking at the monster that looked like a human pig, some of the younger ones simply softened their hands and feet and started retching while holding on to the wall.
"Get down!"
The men in Qingfeng Village couldn't stand it any longer, so they pushed the teenage doll back and blocked the front.
Chi Sheng and Shen Wenchen were not far away, and you could tell he was angry just by looking at his fierce energy.
After all, my wife had just given birth and had to come to watch over her, so it was natural for her to be in a bad mood.
Seeing that there were still people lying on the ground whose life and death were unknown, Shen Wenchen simply stabbed the sword between his eyebrows, then twisted it left and right, smashing the translucent worm inside until the flesh and blood were all blurred, and then he stopped his movements.
Since it is caused by parasites, it is too simple.
After kicking the corpse off the city wall and knocking down a monster that was halfway up the wall, Shen Wenchen raised his eyebrows and turned around to attack the monster behind him.
Chi Sheng was inferior to Shen Wenchen in terms of martial arts, and he felt a little struggling for a while.
The monster saw the opportunity and reached out to catch it. Chi Sheng glanced at it with the tail of his eyes, ducked sideways, and pierced its neck with a sword.
Smelly, dark red blood flowed down the sword, and a translucent insect protruded half of the body from the wound, trying to climb along the sword in the direction of Chi Sheng.
The translucent bugs looked particularly disgusting under the firelight. Chi Sheng clicked his tongue and stretched the tip of his sword to the torch.
The body was burned, and the insect began to twist wildly, but everything was in vain. In less than three breaths, the insect had become a thin piece of dried insect.
Losing the control of the parasite, the corpse quickly collapsed and fell towards the city wall.
Perhaps because of the surge in morale today, the battle went very smoothly.
Many people were injured, but less than ten people were actually killed.
Compared with the previous times, this is already a huge improvement.
Those monsters are not ordinary people. If they were on the plains, ordinary people would only die if they encountered them.
Now that they are in a high position and know their weaknesses, if they can't resist better, the city will be impossible to defend.
As long as they can find something to replace the hose quickly, they will be able to kill all these monsters.
The monsters suffered heavy losses, and the leader was beheaded by Shen Wenchen at the beginning. In the next two hours, they were in chaos, even worse than the previous raids.
The night completely enveloped the entire sky, and only the flames of Yancheng illuminated this place.
The smell in the air is getting stronger and stronger, making people unable to help but cover their noses.
The defenders on the west gate of the city all straightened their backs and stared at the woods below the city with vigilance.
The general at the main gate is leading people to defend the city, and they must not relax.
At midnight, when the two groups were preparing to change shifts, there was a rustling sound in the woods below.
"Something's coming!"
Aze's sharp ears immediately heard the movement below the city.
As he finished speaking, several monsters were already running towards him at great speed.
The moat under the city wall is like a fake and has no effect at all.
"Fire the arrow!"
Aze was startled. He took the bow and arrow from the side and shot. As the fire spread, the strange vertical pupils of the monsters were staring at them.
