Chapter 220 220. Collision
"Oh my God! What is that?"
"A group of flying dragons! There are goblins above! Sound the alarm!"
In the cloudless blue sky, a group of black dot-like figures were approaching rapidly.
On the cylindrical tower, the sentry confirmed with a telescope and his expression changed slightly.
Then, the alarm sounded and the town was in chaos.
"Enemy attack!"
Amid the shouting, Scholar Yi Si hurried out of the Executive Hall: "What's going on?"
"A group of flying dragons are approaching the gathering place, more than ten of them," the messenger reported.
"Get ready, take it down for me." Yi Si gave the order calmly in the face of danger.
The information about the Goblin Empire was not concealed from the top leaders, so Yisi knew very well that the Goblin Kingdom had dragon cavalry.
Such cutting-edge troops, organized as they are, are enough to determine the direction of a war.
If Yi Si didn't have enough confidence in firearms, he wouldn't choose to stay here.
All soldiers with guns, find cover and take up their positions.
Before I could calm down, the enemy had already arrived above the Adventure City.
"Fire!"
As the first shot was fired, gunshots were heard all over the town.
As many as a hundred rifles were aiming and firing into the sky! Blood spurted out of the wings and body of the wyvern, and it lost balance and fell to the ground.
It is already difficult for a behemoth weighing more than two tons to fly into the sky. After all, it is not a dragon that possesses magic and has no way to reduce its body weight.
If you are slightly hurt, you will easily lose your balance and fall.
Nearly half of the fleet of twelve wyverns were damaged in an instant, with five dragons falling from the sky. The remaining seven wyverns quickly took off into the air to distance themselves.
Watching it disappear into the horizon.
"We won?"
"Long live!"
Cheers came from the human camp. The power of firearms strengthened their confidence in victory.
Yi Si breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "It looks intimidating, but it's actually not that great? Or is it that our weapons are too powerful?"
Thinking that another batch of rifles would be delivered this month, his mood suddenly became very good.
People began to search for the body of the wyvern in groups. There was no way it could survive after falling from a height of hundreds of meters.
The two-ton body was smashed to pieces, and the goblin knight behind him naturally died.
Too careless!
It was originally thought that the crossbows of the human kingdom could not reach that height. Even if they could reach it, the power of the arrows would be greatly reduced and could not threaten the scales of the flying dragon.
Just like the last mission, they will make a spiral landing. They will first destroy the arrow towers that threaten the town. Then they will start the dragon breath baptism in the town and set fire to the flammable wooden buildings.
To cause as much panic and harm as possible.
However, something unexpected happened. With just one round of volleys from human weapons, more than half of the flying dragon formation was killed.
The battle was a one-sided crushing victory!
With such a huge loss, Gugor didn't know how to explain it to the commander-in-chief. Perhaps it would be a good idea for them all to die here.
At night, the lights of bonfires can be seen everywhere on the mound.
Adventure Town is holding a victory celebration. The five wyverns have a total of 20,000 kilograms of meat. After removing the bones and scales, there are probably 10,000 kilograms of meat left, and each person can get one kilogram on average.
This is precious flying dragon meat! The market price is much higher than other meats, but the taste is not very good, with a sour taste of carnivorous animals, far inferior to the meat of the herbivorous diplodocus.
It's just for the sake of novelty. Anyway, the price is almost half price, so there's nothing to choose from.
Ye Nuan was sitting by a bonfire, grilling meat, and for some reason he was distracted.
Her two companions, Sasha and Lian, did not choose to leave Hunter Town together. She came here alone.
The adventure city, which is located closer to the East Wilderness Forest, has more abundant prey. Recently, her daily harvest has been several times the original amount, and she has accumulated a lot of gold dragons.
Ye Nuan looked at the dark night sky thoughtfully. With the night vision ability brought by her night elf bloodline, her field of vision was even farther than during the day. She vaguely saw a figure approaching in the sky.
The barbecue on the campfire gave off a burnt smell. Ye Nuan picked up a branch and took a deep breath.
The shrill voice came from a long distance.
"Look up at the sky!"
"What's the matter? What happened?"
Not everyone has night vision. In fact, those who can see clearly at night are warriors who often eat meat.
Many ordinary people suffer from night blindness.
It's too late!
Ye Nuan left the campfire beside him and lurked in the dark bushes.
Alarms sounded again over the city.
Almost before the alarm sounded, a loud dragon roar was heard, and the orange-red dragon breath sprayed fiercely on the outer wall of the bell tower.
Instantly, the entire space in the bell tower was set on fire! Although there was no combustion aid, it continued to burn because of the fat gastric juice in the dragon's breath.
The soldier who was ringing the bell instinctively jumped down from the bell tower and narrowly escaped the attack.
She smelled her burnt hair.
He fell pretty hard, and quickly got up by supporting himself with his hands, then ran away in panic.
Gunshots rang out!
The continuous sound of gunfire seemed like a reassurance.
If an attacking dragon cannot withstand a few hits, it will completely lose its ability to fly. Any dragon that dares to expose its position will be shot and killed.
At close range, rifle shooting is really accurate and powerful.
The dragon cavalry had no time to launch a second round of attack, and only a few of their companions were left around them.
The lights from the fire in the town lit up the night sky.
Every gunshot sounded like the call of the god of death. In the end, only two flying dragons disappeared into the night, leaving without looking back.
After the battle, the firefighting lasted for more than an hour.
After counting the wounded, it was found that 37 people were unfortunately killed and over 100 were killed or injured.
A gloomy atmosphere hung over the city.
People were inevitably panicking, and many people regretted coming here. Even though it was remote enough, they still couldn't escape the war.
Fortunately, the concrete house was not burned to ruins.
The charred wall can be restored to its original state by simply repainting it.
The next morning, the streets were much quieter.
Hunters and merchants left the town in droves.
Fortunately, none of the farmers left.
Because the farmland they have worked so hard to cultivate is so important that it has become a part of their lives.
Unless the situation becomes irreversible, farmers will abandon their land and flee far away.
A few days later, reinforcements sent by Fulin Fort arrived.
A team of one hundred riflemen, accompanied by more than three hundred pioneers and settlers, almost made up for the vacancies left by the hunters. The supply convoy brought a batch of precious ammunition and distributed it to the soldiers.
The depressing atmosphere of the town became lively again with the joining of this group of people.
Various snacks can be found in the streets and alleys.
