Chapter 960: Fierce Beast
"Sword and Shield Formation!"
For ordinary soldiers, facing such dangerous beasts, it is undoubtedly safer to cooperate with their comrades and siege with spears.
However, considering the exploration mission that needs to be completed this time, and the unknowns contained in the unexplored areas.
After comprehensive consideration, the soldiers' equipment configuration is still mainly based on sword and shield equipment, which is the most versatile and more convenient.
After all, they were professional soldiers who had received rigorous training. With an order, even if they relied purely on physical instinct, the soldiers completed the formation in the shortest time possible.
At the same time, stimulated by the Great Zhou soldiers' formation, accompanied by a thunderous roar, the black beast's sturdy limbs kicked violently, and with a burst of explosive power, it rushed over directly! Faced with such a rush, how dare the Great Zhou soldiers face it head-on? They hurriedly scattered.
However, one soldier did not have time to dodge and was pounced on by the black beast on the spot.
At that moment, through the instantly deformed one-handed round shield, the soldier clearly heard the sound of his forearm bones breaking! The intense pain made his face pale on the spot, and his body was knocked back like a kite with a broken string.
After the attack, the black beast did not stop and started to chase.
The Great Zhou soldiers who were scattered around were horrified when they saw this, but they had no intention of abandoning their comrades.
“Surround them!!”
Courageously encouraged by their roars, the soldiers of the Great Zhou raised their shields and swords and immediately formed a sword and shield formation to surround the enemy.
If it were an ordinary target, it would definitely be suppressed when facing the encirclement of the sword and shield formation. However, the black beast was too powerful and could break through all the attacks with one force. If it charged head-on, the sword and shield soldiers would not be able to withstand it at all.
The encirclement was formed, but before it could last even a second, it was forcibly broken through by the black beast.
During this process, the members of the opposing primitive tribe should have realized that they were on the same front facing the black beast.
Compared with the soldiers of the Great Zhou, the members of the primitive tribe also believed that the black beasts that fed on them posed a greater threat to them.
So they came to support and threw stones and bone spears at the ferocious beast, trying to unite the soldiers of the Great Zhou to deal with the beast together.
The attacks of the tribe members were so weak in the eyes of the beast, but the other party's attempt to challenge him made it angry.
Just a piece of food, and you dare to resist? The beast suddenly turned its head and showed its swift and fierce killing action again.
Those tribal members obviously did not have the reaction ability and physical fitness of the Great Zhou soldiers, and the ferocious beast immediately knocked one of the tribal members to the ground.
At the same time, a terrifying force exploded and crushed the tribal member on the spot with the momentum of the attack.
This was a shocking scene, which made the soldiers of the Great Zhou both shocked and angry. They tried to fight the beast with swords and shields in their hands, but they could not withstand the beast's ferocious and terrifying weapons.
In the blink of an eye, five soldiers from the Great Zhou had already died at the claws of the beast.
During this process, the beast became more and more excited as it killed more and more, with no intention of retreating. Smelling the strong smell of blood and licking its front paws covered in blood and flesh, the beast's eyes were filled with cruelty!
Just now, it made a decision that it would kill all these humans and then have a feast to its heart's content.
Thinking of this, the ferocious beast, which could not wait to kill, immediately locked onto a target and was about to take action.
At this moment, the beast's ears moved, accompanied by a slightly sharp whistling sound, and from the distant sky, a group of arrows flew towards it.
Its ears caught the incoming attack before its eyes.
It was completely different from the stones and bone spears thrown by the tribal members. The ferocious beast, feeling threatened, did not have blind confidence and quickly took evasive action.
However, the next second, something unexpected happened.
As the ferocious beast moved, the flying arrow moved with it.
The beast was startled at the sight and hurriedly started moving again.
Unexpectedly, the arrow seemed to have eyes and followed it the whole time!
This incredible scene almost stunned all the tribe members in the distance.
After several unsuccessful attempts to dodge, the beast undoubtedly became annoyed.
In an instant, accompanied by a violent roar, with the help of an invisible force, the muscles on the beast's body suddenly bulged exaggeratedly, causing its already very strong body to swell even more.
Then, the ferocious beast raised its front paws and swung them violently at the arrows flying towards it, using the most brutal force to knock the arrows away.
Almost at the same time, the sound of horse hooves came from afar, and the elf knights led by Zhou Xu had already arrived at the periphery.
Seeing this, the soldiers of the Great Zhou were all cheered up.
"It's His Majesty! His Majesty is here!!"
Zhou Xu's arrival almost instantly boosted the soldiers' low morale.
During this process, Silk and his men kept moving, locking onto the black beast in the distance, and the second round of 'tracking arrows' flew out quickly.
Seeing this action, he realized that those annoying arrows were caused by the black beasts created by the group of guys in the distance, and the violent aura on his body suddenly became stronger.
His body, still in its strengthened state, suddenly burst out with astonishing offensive force and rushed directly towards Zhou Xu and the others.
Seeing this, Silk had already placed his hand on the hilt of the sword, ready to draw the sword and kill him at any time.
However, looking at the ferocious beast charging towards him, Zhou Xu, who had already confirmed the other party's identity as a "supernatural creature" with his "Eye of Peering into Mysteries", became interested.
As the captain of Zhou Xu's personal guards, there was naturally a tacit understanding between them.
As soon as Zhou Xu made a move, Silk knew that their Majesty was probably going to use the ferocious beast as a test.
[Beast Soldier Control! ]
Taking advantage of the distance, Zhou Xu quickly used the "Beast Soldier Control" to forcibly interrupt the beast's charge and control it in place.
At the same time, Zhou Xu began to chant again, and one difficult and awkward note after another came out of his mouth quickly.
[The power of thunder gathers here and turns into a thunderbolt strike! ]
As the last note fell, a dazzling flash of lightning burst out from Zhou Xu's palm.
At that moment, only a loud roar was heard, and the surrounding air began to vibrate violently.
The dazzling lightning turned into a terrifying thunderbolt, spanning a distance of nearly ten meters, and struck the controlled beast with lightning speed! (End of this chapter)
