Chapter 226 Battle of the Beast Tide 2
Chapter 246 The Battle of the Beast Tide (2)
After a while, several light spots appeared in the sky east of Island 1.
The light spot is getting bigger and bigger, and it soon turns into several escape lights of different colors, flying here at a very fast speed.
"It turned out to be the Jiedan monks who were responsible for exploring the specific information of the beast tide at the forefront. These people actually came back together. It must be that the beast tide is about to arrive." Zhao Di thought silently in his heart.
After these seven or eight escape lights reached the city wall, they did not stop and flew directly to the Star Pavilion.
Before that, in the hall on the fourth floor of the Star Pavilion, Master Dingjue crushed a penetrating note. Hearing the reported beast tide, he showed a heavy expression on his face.
"The beast tide will indeed officially land on Island No. 1 in the next two or three days, and there is such a huge number of this first wave of beast tide attacks." The old monk muttered, his two white eyebrows condensed, and his eyes were quite worried.
Within a day, all the monks and mortals on the island were notified that the beast tide would hit Island No. 1 for the first time in a short time. The mortals above the city wall naturally eat and live on the city wall day and night, and high-level immortals like Zhao Di are also required to stay in the wall area for a moment, and also divide a range of care for each Jiedan monk.
The wall is more than a thousand miles long, and at this time, there are only three or five hundred monks in the whole island, and many people have other tasks, so Zhao Di and others are all within the range of three or five miles.
At such a short distance, the monks of the Jiedan period can cover every detail with divine consciousness.
Zhao Di still held a black gauze hat, quietly closed his eyes and sat somewhere near the southern end of the city wall, but his divine consciousness was placed dozens of miles away.
In the distance he was in charge of, there were dozens of catapults and giant crossbows, and more than 10,000 mortals were waiting.
Except for seven or eight disciples in the refining period, a middle-aged monk in the early stage of foundation construction and Zhao Di himself, there are no other monks, and these people are only to command mortals or deal with some accidents.
Because the monks can fly with good maneuverence, most of the monks are organized into a team, not fixed to stay somewhere, but are sent wherever the situation is tight.
At night, there was a faint moonlight sprinkled on the wall, and the bright night wind slowly blew. Most mortals had been lying on the wall with thin quilts and fell asleep. Occasionally, some people are nervous or excited to sleep because of the war. They are getting together in twos and threes and talking in a low voice.
Because of Zhao Di's special identity, there were no mortals approaching within a hundred feet of him.
Immortal Masters like to be quiet and alone. In this way, these mortals who were born on Island No. 1 since childhood and are used to fairy masters flying around also know more or less.
"A stupid, you little fool, you are only 16 years old. Why did you come here? How nice it is to stay at home with your little daughter-in-law"
"That's right, your daughter-in-law has only been away for a few months, and you left her and ran to this wall to sell her strength for half a year, and you are not afraid of your daughter-in-law's resentment, haha"
"Although I'm a few years younger than you, I'm not as strong as you. I haven't had such a big scene for thousands of years. If I miss it, I will regret watching Uncle Hong in my life. I didn't come here in my sixties."
"Hey hey, decades ago, when I was younger than stupid, my grandfather also repaired the city wall here. I always pestered him and asked him why to repair this city wall. Grandpa always said, the immortal master asked me to repair it, then repair it. When it will always be useful, but my grandfather repaired the wall all his I didn't wait until that time. Now it's really going to be this day. I want to see us mortals with my own eyes. Generations have spent countless manpower and painstaking efforts to build this huge wall. After a day, I saw my grandfather under the nine springs, so that I could comfort him a few words.
"What Uncle Hong said is really good. That's what I mean. We mortals are not like immortal masters. We only have a few decades in our lives. How can we miss this moment"
"Speaking of immortal masters, why are there only so few immortal masters coming here to guard the island? I heard a fairy master say that the number of immortal masters in our Star Sea is very large"
"Well, people don't do it for themselves. For the mortals on our island, the island is in the people, and the dead on the island are dead. Of course, we have to do our best. Even so, there are still many people who pretend to be ill and refuse to contribute here. For the immortal masters, the survival of this island will not have much impact on them. They can pat their buttocks and leave at any time. Now it is fortunate that so many immortal masters are here to lead us to guard the island together."
"It makes sense. The three brothers next door to my house find all kinds of excuses to refuse to come to the city wall to guard the island. Humph, I usually know that they are of bad character"
"It's not a matter of character. It's just a matter of other people's attitude and way of life, and you can't blame the sinners."
"Uncle Hong is really tolerant, I don't think so..."
Although these people's gossip is soft for fear of disturbing other people's sleep, for Zhao Di, it is naturally like hearing every word clearly.
He smiled without hesitation, and now tried to run the divine consciousness to the extreme, to see how far he could explore at most.
Fifty miles, 60 miles, 80 miles
Within the range of sixty or seventy miles, he can monitor it more clearly, and more than eighty miles, he can only barely feel a little vaguely.
Zhao Di is very satisfied with this result. You should know that the general monks in the later stage of Jiedan can only detect 30 or 40 miles at most.
If you wear that magic mask, Zhao Di can magnify his consciousness to a more amazing point in a short time.
Suddenly, Zhao Di soared into the air, floated on the wall, and looked far away at the sea.
Under the faint moonlight, the sea is dark and dark.
His divine consciousness detected that in the sea dozens of miles away, there were large numbers of monsters appearing, and the violent breath was very frighten.
"Get up, the first wave of monsters will arrive in half an hour." Zhao Di's voice was not loud, but it was clearly transmitted to everyone in the nearby few miles.
Suddenly, there was a burst of boiling. Mortals and monks got up one after another and stared up at the high Zhao Di.
After a while, there were successive swers of the Overseas Chamber of Commerce, who conveyed a bell-like voice with spiritual power, awakening everyone and indicating that the beast tide was coming.
"Du~" A long horn sounded and resounded thousands of miles, indicating that the monster was very close, and everyone must strictly guard their posts.
These mortals had already practiced similar situations. They were busy with excitement and not chaos. They prepared a stone throwing device and a huge crossbow, and then stood quietly in their respective positions.
On the wall, in a moment, countless torches were lit, countless moonstones were lit, and the wall was illuminated like day.
The inspiring bells and drums spread across the walls of thousands of miles. Everyone's face is solemn and ready to go, but everyone's mood is different. Some people are nervous, some people are excited; some people are worried, some people are afraid; some people look serious, and some people laugh easily.
"Well, it seems that the sound of drums and horns can be transmitted so far. It seems that it is not an ordinary thing. It should be a magic weapon specially refined by the Overseas Chamber of Commerce." Zhao Di looked at the people with different faces under his feet. Thinking of this, at the same time, his consciousness was also carefully exploring in the distance.
More than a dozen elixir monks, such as Master Dingjue and Wuchen Laodao, somewhere in the middle of the city wall, are also doing the same thing.
"This sea of monsters is so wide that I'm afraid that the monsters in it are no less than 100,000. Fortunately, they are mainly first- and second-level low-level monsters, and more than three poles are very rare." Ding Jue said to Wu Chen Lao Dao around him.
"One hundred thousand is nothing. This should be just the cannon fodder of the beast tide striker. These low-level monsters, let the mortals solve it. We still need to preserve our strength, and the hard battle is still behind." Wuchen's eyes shrank and looked at the sea in the distance.
"Yes, that's what I mean. My thousand-person phalanx and the foundation-building monks under you will wait and see what happens first. Ding Jue nodded and said.
"But there are as many as 100,000 cannon fodder, and how many will there be when the beast tide comes," the blue old man of Tianmo Sect couldn't help but feel it.
This sentence was in the mind of several people, and everyone was silent for a while.
Zhao Di, somewhere above the south end of the city wall, with the faint moonlight, saw the herd of monsters sweeping not far away.
It is no longer appropriate to say that the monster group is no longer suitable. The scope is so wide that it is called the sea of monsters.
"I'm coming, I'm coming up," many monks shouted at a loss.
The front part of the monsters have climbed to Island No. 1 and are rushing towards the position of the city wall.
There are sea lion demons with a length of about ten feet, golden toad monsters that leap a few feet away, as well as all kinds of huge crabs, shrimp monsters and all kinds of strange-looking fish demons and sea python demons, which are the most common low-level sea monsters in the Star Sea.
These very weak monsters rushed to the wall more than a thousand feet high, as if they were invisibly driven and manipulated by something.
From the seaside to the city wall, but in just a distance of more than 20 miles, in a moment, a huge number of monsters are enriched under the wall, and it is constantly increasing.
Hundreds of pounds of boulders have been placed on the catapult, and the giant crossbow has also buckled an iron arrow three or four feet long and tightened the bow string.
"Rise" Under the order of the foundation-building monks in charge of command, the mortals above the city wall began to attack the horn.
Ten mortals pressed hard on a giant tree at a foot at the same time and pulled down the trigger on the giant crossbow. The tight bow string immediately ejected the ejection iron arrow, and the latter drew an arc and broke through the air.
Then, dozens of people pulled the bow string again at the same time, pulled the trigger, and three people carried an iron arrow on the giant crossbow.
Hundreds of mortals pulled a long rope together and ran dozens of feet along the city wall. The long rope drives a giant wood on the catapult to rotate and throws the stones placed at one end into the sky dozens of feet high. The stones crossed the city wall and fell.
Then the giant wood slowly fell under the control of these people, and soon seven or eight strong men put wooden sticks and ropes around the stones and put them on the catapult.
Such scenes are constantly staged all over the city wall.
Above the whole wall, there are no tens of thousands of stone throwers and giant crossbows, and no less than a million mortals who manipulate these big killers.
Iron arrows and stones fall like raindrops from the wall more than a thousand feet high, with an amazing roaring wind, and the momentum is very amazing
With a click, an iron arrow easily pierced the body of a running sea lion demon and nailed it to the ground.
With a loud bang, a stone with the shocking momentum of falling from the sky happened to hit the hard shell of a crab monster, and unexpectedly smashed the demon into mud, and the stone was also broken into countless small pieces and splashed around, injuring several monsters nearby.
Although the monster's skin is rough and thick, after the stones and iron arrows fell from a thousand feet high, they are extremely fast and powerful. As long as they are hit, they will definitely die.
Although most of the attacks failed, after this wave of volleys, there were no less than a thousand dead and wounded monsters.
The middle-aged monk in the foundation period who "launched" raised the flag and issued an order again.
Iron arrows and stones are sprinkled like rain again.
A several-foot-sized golden toad monster was jumping quickly to the city wall, and a three-foot-square stone fell on the hard ground in front of it, smashing a deep hole and splashing out countless gravel.
These gravels were so fast that they could not be avoided at all. The toad monster was suddenly injured, and even its left eye the size of its fist was hit, and the blood flowed like a river.
The toad monster opened his huge mouth and screamed like an ox, but still jumped to the city wall without stopping.
Under the wall, monsters of various forms are hitting and destroying the wall with sharp teeth, giant tails, limbs and bodies.
Outside the city wall, there are many defense spells engraved, which is the most powerful and strong place. Even under the crazy attack of these low-level monsters regardless of their own lives, they will be destroyed very little.
"Push the stone" Zhao Di shouted and passed the order to the foundation-building monk, who immediately waved the order flag in his hand and passed the order to the mortals.
On the edge of the city wall, there are countless mortals who work together to push down several feet of stones from the half-human-high low wall.
Countless stones fell, and the monsters at the foot of the city wall were suddenly killed and injured, and all kinds of wailing and roaring were endless.
Pieces of monsters rushed to Island No. 1, and bursts of iron arrows and stone rain fell. A scream and roar came out. A body was injured and fell down. Thousands of miles under the wall of Island No. 1 under the moonlight suddenly became a bloody and crazy killing field.
"Amitabha, Dingjue brother, we and other monks to cross the world compassionately. I didn't expect to brew such a great murder today." An ordinary-looking young monk floated in the air. Seeing the situation under him, he sighed a little unbearably.
"Dharma also kills demons and exorcises demons. If it is to save people and kills people, then there is no need to stick to the form. What's more, we want to save, not just these hundreds of millions of mortals"
