Blue Sword

Chapter 77 Siege

What the Night Watch Knight Captain Jasimodo deployed was the classic "Eagle Wings Tactics".

Most of the knights are distributed on the high ground on both sides. If the ghouls want to attack, they can only charge upwards and have to slow down due to the climb.

There is a knight holding a shotgun distributed on the high ground on each side. This powerful firearm at close range can easily knock down the slowing ghoul down the mountain.

Laser rifles are the main force in causing damage. They sinter physical wounds at high temperatures, accelerating the blood loss and death of the ghouls.

Since it is difficult to attack the highlands, the ghouls with basic hunting instincts will of course choose the central pass of the highlands on both sides to break through as soon as possible, which is the position guarded by Knight Langley.

Although seemingly alone, Langley possesses the most powerful heavy weapon in the team - the flamethrower. The ultra-high temperature flame produced by military fuel can quickly burn any target within three meters in front of him.

Ghouls, who are naturally afraid of fire, are almost naturally restrained against this kind of weapon.

Therefore, whether it is the "Eagle Wings" direction where the high ground is located, or the "Eagle Beak" direction where the flamethrower is located, it is actually not easy to break through.

If nothing goes wrong, these ghouls should be killed first by the flamethrower, and then be forced to attack the high ground on both wings. They will lose a lot of manpower during the climb, and finally be annihilated or flee.

This is the ideal situation.

Of course, considering the huge disparity in numbers between the enemy and ourselves, casualties may also occur.

Hundreds of ghouls rushed to the high ground together. No matter how powerful the shotguns were, it was impossible to shoot them all down the mountain. The miniguns still had some possibility.

However, there was an accident at the beginning... The ghouls did not rush towards the central pass guarded by Langley as Jasimodo expected. Instead, they took a large arc and rushed towards the edge of the high ground on the right. .

Jasimodo quickly looked over there, and was suddenly shocked - he saw two mercenary girls running away frantically, while the ghouls were chasing after them, and the distance between the two sides was almost very fast. The ground is drawn closer.

"Llorente, Roger! Overclocking fire interception!" The knight commander made a prompt decision and quickly increased the firepower projection from the high ground on the right.

Overfrequency shooting is a mode that increases the frequency of firepower in a short period of time at the expense of accelerating the life loss of the laser rifle.

As the rate of fire suddenly increased, a dozen ghouls could not withstand the blow from the side and turned towards the high ground on the right.

However, for the army of corpses chasing the two mercenary girls, this was only a negligible loss of troops.

"Ask!! I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost!!!" Medea's angry scream echoed in the psychic channel like an explosion. Because the ghoul in front of her had almost caught up with her, Medea could even smell the disgusting corpse stench behind her.

"Don't be afraid." Asik replied and took out the sniper rifle from his back. It was the weapon that he got from the last hunt for Feng Kesim.

"Mi'er, prepare for staggered suppression." Asker knelt down on one knee, aiming his gun forward.

"Received." Mier on the tree replied.

The rhythmic sound of shooting began to ring out across the plains. Two sniper rifles were placed one on the tree and the other under the tree, shooting accurately and steadily.

Whenever a ghoul was about to catch up with Medea and Sheila, his head would be shot by a sniper bullet in the next second, and his body would fly backwards in mid-air.

"Jasimodo, am I right? That's staggered suppression!" Looking at the scene in the field ahead, a vigil knight exclaimed on the channel.

Staggered suppression is a shooting tactic used by a team of shooters.

Since the shot hits, the enemy will be stunned, causing the charge to be stalled or even knocked back.

Therefore, when a large number of enemies charge towards the gunner team, the gunners need to shoot targets from near to far in order, and regularly create hard shots to suppress the enemy's overall charging speed and avoid being approached by the enemy in a short period of time.

Although this tactic is simple to describe, it is very difficult to implement in practice.

The first problem is shooting accuracy. It is necessary to determine which enemy is closest in a short period of time and hit it quickly, which tests the gunner's reaction ability.

The second problem is coordination. The coordinated shooting of multiple gunmen is called "staggered suppression." However, a situation that easily occurs is that two gunmen hit the same target almost indiscriminately in a flash of lightning. .

This is a wasted opportunity to create a confrontation. How to judge which target is about to be shot by a companion and which target should be shot by yourself is a great test of the tacit understanding between gunners.

What the night watch knights saw at this time was such an incredible sight.

As undead, ghouls have no so-called vital parts, so they are not easily killed by a sniper rifle.

However, their attack method is to pounce, during which they will briefly jump into the air.

Once shot by a sniper rifle in the air, the entire body will be shot away by the bullet.

I saw the army of ghouls catching up with the two running girls in an instant. The one who was closest first kicked off his hind legs fiercely and pounced viciously on the backs of the girls.

At the moment of leaving the ground, the forward body suddenly stagnated, and then flew out strangely.

The second ghoul passed over its body from below, roaring ferociously and leaping forward with all its strength.

Then he was shot in the head again, flew upside down, and fell to the ground.

Such a strange scene was connected, that is, countless ghouls swooped forward one after another, and before they touched the hems of the two girls' clothes, they flew back one after another.

What really made the ghouls perform this exaggerated "acrobatic performance" was the two nearly perfect staggered shooting trajectories fired by two sniper rifles from the distant hills.

They never shoot at the same time, nor do they hit the same ghoul. They just steadily suppress the charge of the ghouls, making it impossible for them to knock the two fleeing girls to the ground.

"Bravo! (Great fight!)" Seeing three ghouls jumping up at the same time and being shot away by sniper guns in the air, even Jia Levin, the calmest person in the team, couldn't help but cheer, "It's really Bravo!"

"I have never seen such perfect staggered suppression!" Other knights also commented.

"Their gunners are definitely professional-level!"

"Jasimodo!" the grumpy Lorente yelled again, "Are you sure we are just here to watch? A professional mercenary gunner of this level should be brought over to fight alongside us! Die in What a shame in the hands of the ghouls!”

"It's too late to get over now." Jasimodo sighed. It takes at least 20 seconds to rush from here to there, which is enough time for the ghouls to tear these mercenaries into pieces.

"Everyone stick to their positions, and the laser rifles continue to fire from a long distance, trying to eliminate a few more corpses before they die." Regrets are regrets, and professionalism still made Jasimodo make the wisest decision.

The four laser rifles roared at the same time, and the crimson blazing rays cut through the air, burning the rotting bodies of the ghouls.

Under the pain, these ghouls became more and more twisted and crazy, rushing towards the two fleeing girls in front of them.

Finally reaching the bottom edge of the highland, Sheila and Medea were running out of breath. Eleanor passed over the exhausted two people and swung the shield in her hand violently, knocking over the ghoul rushing in front.

The right pistol shot out like a dragon and stabbed the other ghoul in the abdomen.

Dragon Spear!

The spear lifted the ghoul up. The ghoul bared its teeth and claws in the air, still unable to get rid of the impaled posture.

The next second, it was thrown out by the spear, like a huge cannonball, knocking over all the ghouls in a straight line behind it.

On the top of the tree above the high ground, Mier quickly switched the Slayer III to the assault mode, and the muzzle began to click loudly, shooting at the group of ghouls rushing towards Eleanor.

Although the bullets are not very lethal to the undead, they can put them into a stiff state and prevent Eleanor from being attacked by these monsters.

Eleanor held the shield across her chest in her left hand to resist the scratches and attacks of the ghouls in front. The spear in his right hand was pulled to the far left side of his body, and his waist was rotated to exert force suddenly.

Cut the iron!

This slash of iron was swung 270 degrees, sending all the ghouls around him flying away.

Sidrifa next to her immediately charged forward with an ax and slashed with whirlwind!

The ghouls who were knocked away by the iron sword collided head-on with Sidrifa's ax blade storm, and were immediately torn apart like chopping melons and vegetables.

On the other side of the highland, in a direction that the vigil knights could not see, Mia teleported Sheila and Medea below into Hearth Island, and then teleported out again, just like a transport plane in StarCraft loading up the soldiers under the highland. , and then instantly airdropped to high ground.

"Where's that Asker guy?" Medea, who had just reached the high ground, bared her teeth and claws like a ghoul, eager to tear Asker into pieces.

"He jumped off the high ground!" Mia quickly replied.

"What?" Medea and Sheila were both shocked.

Eleanor and Hilda were at the bottom of the high ground because one of them was equipped with magic copper armor and the other was equipped with meteorite armor, so that they could withstand the claws of the ghouls that could tear through steel.

Asker only wore a piece of chain mail, but he actually dared to rush into the battlefield like this?

"Is he crazy? He actually rushed down like this!" Before Medea could speak, Sheila immediately ignored her breath and shouted in panic, "If he is killed, what will our team do in the future!"

"No way, how could Asik die?" Mia denied subconsciously, "Even if we are all wiped out, he will definitely be the one who survives to the end!"

Sheila didn't talk nonsense to her, but quickly rushed to the edge of the highland, and saw Asik holding his sword with one hand and rushing towards Eleanor and Hildelifera.

Several ghouls quickly attacked, as ferocious as a pack of wolves attacking a lone antelope.

Then the central antelope turned into a lion.

Draw your sword and chop! A cold light like a half moon passed by, and all the ghouls flying in the air flew backwards. Ask swung the long sword with his right hand, squeezed Aphrodite's trigger with his left hand, and the bullets started firing rapidly.

The ghoul hit by the bullet was pushed further in the air, almost flying more than ten meters away.

More ghouls rushed towards this side. Ask quickly turned sideways, dodged the ghoul's grasp, and hit its head with a lion's tooth.

The ghoul was cut down by the sword. The next second, Asik had already stepped on its head, using the force to jump high in the air.

Jump in the air!

He jumped in the air like a dragonfly on the shoulders and heads of countless ghouls, and quickly approached Eleanor's position.

Once a ghoul tried to pounce, he would slash down with his long sword, lightly slashing the opponent away.

"Whirlwind, spiral charge, breakout at 3 o'clock." Asik said quickly in the channel.

At this time, Eleanor and Hildelifera, after more ghouls arrived, immediately fell into an unfavorable situation of being outnumbered.

They could only stand back to back, dealing with the poisonous claws coming from all directions. The armor was covered with white marks pulled out by sharp nails, with faint traces of corrosion.

If it weren't for the protection of these high-grade armors, they would have been torn to pieces by now.

Upon hearing Aske's command, the two men immediately turned around and charged without hesitation, heading towards the 3 o'clock direction.

Silla was looking over there in a daze, and suddenly someone pulled her up forcefully.

"Come and help!" Mia shouted in her ear.

Sheila was stunned and realized that there were about forty ghouls who had left the ranks that besieged Aske and the others and began to attack the high ground here.

Peggy held the sword and held the only gentle slope she could rush up to. She moved around crazily within a small area of ​​four or five steps, killing and stabbing back all the ghouls that were close to her.

Some of the remaining ghouls continued to attack the gentle slope entrance of the highland, while others tried to climb up from the cliff with their claws. Nora and Mier were firing continuously, shooting them down one by one.

Sheila took a deep breath, and the mithril circuit on her right arm began to light up.
