Chapter 201: This Side of the Enemy

The battle on Ash's side has not yet begun. At Zeus' request, the Banshees have made a lot of preparations, including a lot of explosives, but have yet to choose to start a war.

The number of merfolk and sea urchin monsters here increased more and more, and monsters kept landing from the sea. Soon the number of merfolk exceeded a hundred, and there were more than ten sea urchin monsters.

"Lord Ash, are we not going to attack yet?"

"Don't worry, our main task this time is to cooperate with the shooting of the Skitarii."

"The Skitarii?" Nini curled her lips. "Do you think they can fight against sea urchins and arm monsters?"

"cannot."

"Then why are you still waiting for them? I think the Lord is just overthinking. How can you count on the Skitarii? "

Ash shook his head and glanced at Nini: "You've read the battle report between them and the murlocs just now. Although they were outnumbered and it's hard to say that they had any combat prowess, they did succeed in killing the murlocs."

"Isn't it because of the lord's rifle? With this weapon, we will definitely be more powerful than them."

"Yes." Ash nodded and looked at the fishmen and arm monsters in the distance. "But the lord still distributed them to them."

Nini looked around Ash in surprise and said, "What did I hear? Are you complaining? Complaining that Hughes didn't give us weapons? Wow, Ash, you actually complain about the lord."

"I'm not complaining, I'm stating a fact. Humans are weak, but they can go to the battlefield after the lord equips them with guns. We are strong, but the bullets we shoot are not faster."

Nini blinked and lowered her head thoughtfully.

She had also seen those rifled guns. They were not much of a threat to the banshees. They could indeed injure them under normal circumstances, but once the flesh and blood magic was activated, these bullets would only tickle them.

"Weapons can bring humans closer to us, right?" Nini murmured to herself. She was not stupid and quickly figured out the details. Besides, Hughes didn't seem to care much about the rifle, so it was definitely not the strongest weapon he had made. Nini had also participated in a lot of weapons research and development, and knew that Hughes was working on some big guns recently.

She was a little worried, a little relieved, and vaguely confused and afraid of the unknown. With such a feeling, Nini saw the crusaders coming to the battlefield.

This time they were farther away from the fishmen, about seven or eight hundred meters. This distance was beyond the effective range of rifles, making it difficult to aim, but a volley could still cause casualties.

This location was specially chosen as it is very close to the webway. If the enemy approaches, they can hide directly in it. After discussion, Zeus and Ash decided to set the battlefield here.

"My Lord, the murlocs are still gathering. This wave of their attack seems to be particularly large. There are already more than a hundred murlocs, and more are gradually coming from the sea."

"While we were fighting the murlocs over there, was there any movement here?"

"Not at all. They don't seem to notice that."

"How strange! They are not far from each other, but they both came up from the same ocean."

Ash was silent.

Yes, it is really strange. These enemies are very weird from beginning to end. I don’t know how Richard’s interrogation of the murloc captives goes.

"Alexei, line up and fire."

Alexei nodded. Ash had already communicated with him and explained the battle plan. Now two teams of banshees were guarding on both sides of the Crusader Army, ready to cooperate at any time.

Orders were given one after another, and the soldiers formed long lines again. The team leaders explained the key points of this battle to the soldiers.

"We are shooting at a close range this time. Don't aim. Raise the muzzle of the gun to this angle, aim in the direction of the enemy, and pull the trigger directly."

Soon, as the order to reload was given, the soldiers began to stuff new bullets into the barrels.

"Fire!"

The effect of the first wave of volleys was unexpectedly good. This time, the fishmen and the arm monsters had not yet organized their formation, but were just piled up there in a mess. At least ten of them fell in this round of volleys.

Before they could react, the second round of volleys began. By the time they started rushing towards this side in a disorderly manner, they had already been shot three times.

Three rounds of shooting left forty corpses, and at this time, the monsters were nearly one kilometer away from the people.

After starting to move, the shooting effect was not very good, but as the distance shortened, the bullets became accurate again.

The fishmen were still running far away, while the arm monsters were rolling towards them quickly.

By the fifth round of shooting, they had already come to within 300 meters of the people. There were ten monsters in total, and although they were hit by many bullets, only one fell down.

There was some commotion in the crowd, and at this rate they could only fire one more round at most.

"Calm down, the Lord is with us, the Banshee is right beside us, don't embarrass the Crusader Army!" Alexi immediately shouted, "Keep reloading!"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The effect of this sentence was surprisingly good. When people turned around and saw Zeus not far away, they were obviously much more relieved. Since their lord did not run away, they would definitely win.

"Fire!"

Bang!!

The arm monsters were already over a hundred meters away. They were huge and close, so most of the Crusaders' shots hit their targets, and three more monsters fell.

"Draw the Sword"

The banshees drew out their swords in unison, but did not take the next step and remained standing where they were.

"Reload on the spot!"

Alexei yelled, and the squad leaders kept maintaining order. The soldiers' legs were shaking a little. They knew it was too late for them to fire the next shot, but no one turned around and ran away. They were still trembling as they loaded the bullets, and the bullets in the hands of several people fell to the ground.

The remaining five-armed monsters had just rushed to a hundred meters when suddenly a burst of fire appeared on the ground.

A few inconspicuous small boxes were placed on the ground. As the monsters approached, red flames and explosions kept flashing, and metal jets instantly turned them into sieves.

A twisted piece of iron sheet collapsed into the sky, bounced a few times on the ground, and revealed a line of words that were difficult to distinguish - this side faces the enemy.

Is this the trigger mine that Hughes had recently laid out? Or was it Nini's bomb that gave him the inspiration? The biggest advantage of this type of mine is that it can be detonated in a direction, using metal jets to injure the enemy, and its power is far greater than that of ordinary bombs.

Adding the words "facing the enemy this way" was just his bad taste. It is completely different from the principle of the Broadsword mine on Blue Star. However, this type of shaped charge does need to mark the direction, and the sunken warhead can easily be misunderstood.

On Blue Star, this type of mine is generally used for anti-armor purposes, and it is even a bit of a waste to deal with this kind of arm monster.
