Chapter 456: Escape
"Boom ......"
The violent tremors accompanied by a terrible hum from above were heard again, terrifying the people in the cave to the extreme, and many of the women and children were already crying in fright, but the crying did not solve anything, but only made the already spacious cave even more suffocating.
"Mother, I'm so scared, why don't those beasts leave."
"It's over! Finished! Is there anyone who can save us? ”
"Where's the Beast Hunters! Why haven't they come for so long? ”
……
In the midst of countless desperate wails, a helpless voice was saying to his companion beside him: "City Lord, I'm afraid this cave won't last long. ”
The middle-aged man in a brocade robe couldn't help but look at his head when he heard this, the low light of the fire made him unable to see the masonry above his head, but he felt the dust that kept falling, and his mood had sunk to the bottom.
"If it was usual, the beast hunting army of the Barren Rhino Mountain should have arrived a long time ago, and ......I'm afraid it hasn't come yet," the companion on the other side of the brocade-robed man couldn't help but speak.
The brocade-robed man sighed, this place is called Wanxia City, it is the closest city to the Fierce Beast Valley in the Moye Country, and it is often disturbed by fierce beasts, so many buildings have been built to resist fierce beasts, and the cave where they are hiding at this moment is one of them, and he is the city lord of this Wanxia City.
Even if his status is extraordinary, Xu Chuang is just an ordinary person, and in the face of those terrible monsters that he has never seen before, he has no other way than to lead the people in the city to hide in this cave.
"I'm afraid the vision that rose in the east a few days ago is related to these things, if that's the case, these things come all the way, not to mention the beast hunting army, I'm afraid other support is not easy to say." The voice spoke again.
"What then? We can't stop it. ”
Listening to his right hand on both sides, Xu Chuang slowly interrupted for a while: "If you can hold on for a while, it's a while, if there are really no reinforcements...... Lao Zhou, you let the city guards get ready, once the hole can't stand up, the city guards will fight a bloody way, and it is best to lead those things away. Lao Liu, you just stay and escape with the people. ”
Hearing this, Lao Liu suddenly panicked, and hurriedly said, "What about you?" ”
Xu Chuang closed his eyes and took a deep breath before replying, "I am the city lord of Wanxia City personally appointed by His Majesty, where can I escape?" Besides, my city lord has fled, how can I let Lao Zhou and them go to death. ”
Hearing this, the bearded Lao Zhou wiped his face and laughed: "With the words of the city lord, my Lao Zhou didn't follow the wrong person!" But our city guards are not cowards, it's hard to say whether they will be sent to death! ”
Lao Liu opened his mouth, but looking at Xu Chuang's determined expression, he had to sigh, he and Xu Chuang had known each other since they were young, and then assisted Xu Chuang as his left and right hand for decades, Xu Chuang's temper He knew too well, once he showed such an expression, it said that there was no room for negotiation.
"Give me another idea." Seeing Lao Liu's lonely face, Xu Chuang laughed instead.
Hearing these familiar words, Lao Liu closed his eyes and pondered for a while, and then said: "These monsters come from the east, so the east is either the most dangerous place or the safest place, so I want to fight!" Just ask the city lord and General Zhou to lure those monsters to the Valley of the Fierce Beasts, and drive the tiger and devour the wolf to maybe have one more chance of life. ”
"Good!" Xu Chuang slapped his leg and applauded, in a moment this is probably the best way, "Hear it, Lao Zhou." ”
Lao Zhou smiled and nodded: "Then I'll go and order someone." With that, Lao Zhou stood up, and his huge eight-foot-tall figure was almost reaching the top of the cave in the ground.
Xu Chuang and Lao Liu didn't waste any time, the two stood up at the same time, and nodded at the same time.
"Quiet! Listen to me......"
……
"Rush!" With Lao Zhou's loud shout, the floodgates of the underground cave were suddenly pushed open, and hundreds of cavalry suddenly rushed out! In order to cover the retreat of the people in the city into the cave, the city guards had sacrificed many manpower, and these more than 400 horsemen were already the only remaining strength.
Lao Zhou rushed to the front first, and at the same time let out a huge roar to attract the attention of the monster, and the city lord Xu Chuang also followed closely behind him, his voice was not as loud as Lao Zhou, but he also desperately shouted. For a while, the shouts of hundreds of people resounded throughout the city!
As if alarmed by this sound, several blood-colored monsters in the city that were constantly hammering and digging into the ground stopped moving.
"Not enough! Come closer! Lao Zhou shouted loudly. At this moment, there were five blood-colored monsters gathered in the city, each of which was close to a dozen feet tall, but at this time, there were only three of them who were attracted to them, and two of them only paused for a moment before continuing to bury their heads down.
The sound of horses' hooves resounded endlessly, and they continued to approach the city, and there was more than one exit from the tunnel, so they deliberately chose one that was closer to the city, and Lao Liu led the people to another exit.
"Gunpowder bomb ready!" Lao Zhou's roar sounded again, and dozens of horsemen and horses behind him took out a pear-sized ball from his arms and held it in his hands. Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to the monster, Lao Zhou's eyes were on fire, and he shouted: "Ignite!" …… Throw! ”
The smell of gunpowder suddenly spread, and dozens of gunpowder bullets were thrown out, and then smashed down on the monster, and the monster's tall body was the best target at this moment.
"Raise your shield!" After the gunpowder bomb was thrown, Lao Zhou immediately shouted the next order, his face was full of anger, his teeth were clenched, and even his eyes were bloodshot.
The next moment, "Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
The explosions sounded one after another, and even the ground was shaken slightly, this is the result of Lao Zhou's estimation, the gunpowder bullet can't be thrown too much, otherwise it will affect the hole below, but at the same time, it can't be too little to attract the attention of these blood-colored monsters, and the last thing to consider is that their remaining gunpowder bullet may be their last means of counterattack.
After the explosion, countless blood rains suddenly sprinkled in the sky, and there were even some unrecognizable pieces of flesh and bones mixed with them. Then I saw that the ground and houses that had been drenched by the blood rain began to smoke one after another, and the unpleasant stench quickly spread throughout the city!
"Ahh At the same time, screams began to erupt in Lao Zhou's team, some soldiers/bad luck, the shield did not completely block the blood rain, and was directly poured on the body, and the skin and flesh / pierced in the blink of an eye, and the white bones and internal organs were suddenly exposed! And others because the blood rain eroded through the armor on the war horse, and the war horse lost control under the pain.
This is how these headless blood-colored monsters took away his countless soldiers before! And this time it was the same, just one photo, they lost dozens of people! The eyes of the people were red, angry, and afraid, but they did not dare to stay here for a moment.
"Ahhhh Lao Zhou led everyone to roar angrily, while Xu Chuang was thinking: "Lao Liu should have heard this movement." ”
Sure enough, with the sound of a tremor, a door suddenly opened in a forest outside the city.
"Move fast! No one is allowed to stop! It's the city lord, they're buying us time with their lives! Old Liu's hoarse roar came from far away in the cave, and at this moment he didn't care if the sound would make the hole collapse faster, he was a scribe, but he also had a fire burning in his heart!
Finally, four of the five blood-colored monsters all looked at Xu Chuang, and although these monsters didn't have eyes, they knew that these monsters were staring at them! At the same time, I want to eat them even more!
"Let's go!" Seeing this, Lao Zhou immediately made a decision.
"There is another ......" They only attracted four, but one seemed to smell something else, and did not mean to follow them, so Xu Chuang said anxiously.
"It's too late!" Lao Zhou said urgently, and at the same time slapped Xu Chuang's horse buttocks, "Target Beast Valley!" Don't look back! ”
Before Xu Chuang could argue anything, he was taken out by Ma instantly, and at the same time, Lao Zhou also led everyone to follow.
"Boom!" After only a few breaths, only to hear another loud noise, there was suddenly a ravine in the city, and the location was exactly where Xu Chuang and the others had run before, and the soldiers who had been injured or fallen off their horses were integrated into the monster at this moment.
Although they could imagine it, Xu Chuang and the others didn't look back to see this scene, or they didn't have time to care at all, because the blood-colored monster had already set off to crush them! The blood-colored monster was huge, and everywhere it passed was dusty, and Xu Chuang and the others still needed to make a detour, but they only had to go on a rampage.
"Gunpowder bomb!"
With Lao Zhou's order, several soldiers took out gunpowder shells again, and then lit them and threw them forward, and the city wall was instantly blown out of a gap. When passing, Lao Zhou couldn't help but glance at the city wall, he has been guarding here for almost twenty years, where the city wall is the most solid, where is the weakest, where it has been damaged and has not been repaired, he knows everything well, and it can even be said that he knows more about this city wall than his own mother-in-law's body.
It's just that he never expected that one day, this city wall would be blown up by his own order.
The speed of the blood-colored monster is not slow, and Xu Chuang and the others must follow the road, almost not long after Xu Chuang and the others rushed out of the city, the blood-colored monster has already come to the city wall, and then a terrible scene happened.
I saw that the huge blood-colored body slowly climbed up, and the city wall that was more than a foot high suddenly collapsed, and then the viscous blood water flowed on the wall bricks, and in just a moment, most of the city wall that could block the attack of the fierce beast was dissolved! In the midst of the green smoke, huge blood-colored monsters were dancing their teeth and claws.
The imminent horror made the soldiers tremble, and all the courage, anger, and hatred turned into a thirst for life at this moment, and they kept whipping the horses under them, wishing that they could grow their wings and stay away from the nightmare behind them.
However, at this moment, the dozens of soldiers at the end of the line suddenly felt that the sky seemed to be covered by dark clouds, so they couldn't help but look up, and saw a big blood-colored hand the size of a house reaching out towards them!
