Only then did El understand the monster's original attack plan.
It is essentially a huge troop carrier, and when it hits the city wall, not only will strange beasts rush to the top of the city along its burning body, but a large number of strange beasts will also be born inside this thing. It is simply the worst of beasts.
But this is not the end. Just as El was about to replace the parts of these strange beasts and clear out the miscellaneous soldiers, he suddenly felt a palpitation for no reason.
A question suddenly occurred to him - could it be possible to kill such a burning beast simply by extinguishing the flames?
In other words, although his actions resolved the major crisis of the city wall, didn’t he also save the other party from being burned to death?
As if in response to his thoughts, the wicker man's head finally opened, and a gray-white monster emerged from it, with murderous eyes directed at El.
Just by looking at each other, El knew that this guy was not an easy opponent to deal with. He was afraid that this thing would be the first thing to break out of the wicker man's body after he hit the city wall.
Its eyes turned red instantly, and rays that seemed to be able to penetrate everything rushed towards El.
There's a big problem!
El thought so, but his body had no way to react.
If this boy had some experience with games from another world, then his current state of exhaustion could be easily explained.
No more blue.
It was that simple. After awakening his new ability and quickly testing it in actual combat, his remaining mental energy could only be used to exchange for the internal organs of some ordinary beasts.
But the guy in front of him obviously couldn't be killed by such a small trick.
El clearly felt the call of death, and a little regret arose in his heart.
I had only been in school for a few months, but I had already dragged down the soldier of the Extinction Legion next to me. My clothes were wet and I felt very uncomfortable.
He closed his eyes, but the expected death did not come, and he did not even feel a trace of warmth.
El opened his eyes and saw the energy shield unfolding in front of him.
Part of the ray that could take the lives of countless people was absorbed, and the other part was reflected in other directions, so he didn't suffer any harm.
When the ray ended, the energy shield turned into streams of light and rushed to the right.
A strong wind blew, and El looked up at the sky. The lights gradually penetrated into an empty sleeve and turned into an arm again.
The man with his feet on the wind descended from the sky and reached out to the exhausted El:
"Long time no see, 'Boss'.
"I was ordered to come for reinforcement, so what's going on now?"
El stood up and pointed at the gray-white beast:
"It looks like the Wicker Man's pilot. Have they evolved to this point?"
"Um……"
Luke rubbed his energy arm against his chin:
"I don't know either, but we can try to catch it alive."
Thick fog suddenly appeared on the city wall, completely enveloping the three people.
The strange beast stepping on the lifeless wicker man looked at this scene, and the eyes on its head began to split, and soon increased from two to sixty-four, densely covering its entire head.
Since the ray attack is carried out with both eyes, it can be more powerful as long as there are more eyes.
With such coverage, what good is it to block the view with thick fog? It just adds to the joke.
The strange beast began to accumulate strength. Roots extended from its feet and took root in the body of the wicker man, who was "brain dead" but not decayed, and absorbed the other's vitality for its own use.
On its head, sixty-four eyes were arranged in a tight formation, intending to launch a saturation bombardment on the three people on top of the city wall.
The accumulation of a large amount of energy even made the air around the monster make crackling sounds, and a covering attack on the city wall ahead was inevitable.
In the thick fog, El and Liu Xiaoheng looked at Luke in front of them, and the meaning in their eyes was very clear -
You have a high level of education, can you think of a solution?
Luke was not at all panicked when he saw this scene. If one were to say what the difference was between him and the two Els in front of him, in addition to culture, one point that must be mentioned is probably experience.
And in his past experiences, there is a memory that is very useful at this moment, that is, Luke was once a member of the first team and mastered the spacecraft's defense system.
To put it simply, Luke is better at using tools than the average superpower.
According to the current division of responsibilities and powers in artificial intelligence in Hope City, aspects related to the inner and outer urban areas and city wall battles are under the jurisdiction of [Sky Curtain], while parts related to the spire (spaceship) are still managed by "Wanjuan".
He tapped on the communicator:
"Ten thousand volumes."
"I am here."
"I'm applying for the naval guns to fire at full power. The coordinates are Section 14 of the eastern wall of the outer city. The specific location is..."
"Application approved. It is found that you are currently within the range of fire. Please prepare for evacuation. Countdown for launch: 5, 4, 3..."
In the center of the inner city, at the top of the spire.
A giant metal cannon that was more than ten meters long and had a sense of technology slowly turned an angle. Its barrel lit up one by one and pointed to the direction 6° to the north of the east.
On the city wall, Luke looked at the two men with subtle expressions on their faces:
"'Manjuan' let's run."
“Yes.”
El's body had flashed more than ten meters away and looked back over here.
The remaining two people suddenly fled towards the inside of Hope City. One stepped on the whirlwind, and the other jumped directly off the inside of the city wall with the help of the propulsion system. Later, they were lifted up by the hurricane and suspended in the air, leaving this dangerous place.
The countdown to "Ten Thousand Volumes" is still playing without any emotion:
"…2, 1, fire."
While the three were running away, the strange beast on the other side was still holding back its ultimate move.
The memory of battle cannot really replace experience. In its view, no matter how many tricks and means the humans on the other side have, there is no possibility of survival under its saturation attack.
At this moment, it is like a balloon that is about to explode. The accumulation of energy makes the entire head swell up, and it is just missing the final explosion.
Just as the alien beast's accumulated power reached its limit and was about to release it violently, it suddenly saw a spot of light.
The light appeared on the other side of the thick fog of the city wall ahead and was getting brighter at a very fast speed.
The next moment, a huge beam of light that was large enough to cover the entire body of the wicker man fell from the sky, directly enveloping the strange beast that was accumulating power.
The high temperature burned its skin and scorched its internal organs. The surrounding sea water boiled in an instant and turned into extremely high-temperature steam that diffused around, making the body of the strange beast seem as if it had entered a steamer.
Its skin quickly disappeared, and the bones inside were also decomposed. The energy accumulated in the body had nowhere to go, and eventually caused a secondary explosion in the monster's head.
