The Twins didn't sit still.
It folded its two wings and held them in front of itself to resist the bombardment of long-rod bullets. At the same time, it threw out more feathers and used all kinds of evil spirits to engage in a fierce fight with the gathered warships.
"The evil spirit jumped on board from the bow!"
"Ah—my hand—"
"Don't stand there stupidly! Get your musket and drive them off!"
"Hold on, Master Split Tooth will be here soon!"
Facing the swarms of demons coming one after another, the ship's own defense level alone was obviously unable to stop them, so the dragonborn, mainly the Split Tooth family, supported the middle line of defense.
In order to reduce the impact of the storm on themselves, they basically chose to fly close to the ground, climbing no higher than a three-story building in the upper city. Whenever evil spirits gather in groups, several flying dragons will fly over their heads, spewing out flames as if sweeping the ground, turning small evil spirits wherever they go into flying ash.
But their situation is not entirely safe.
Lowering the altitude means weakening maneuverability. Facing the four-winged worms swooping down from a higher place, you will be chewed up if you are not careful. One or two can be tolerated, but if four or five of them get on top of them, even the Dragonborn will fall to the ground due to severe pain. Once he falls into the group of evil spirits below, the fate can be imagined.
In fact, since the battle, two dragonborn have been bitten to pieces in full view of the public.
This is a showdown between life and chaos.
No one is completely immune.
…
High in the sky behind the demon, Taksis was carrying Xia Fan and hovering on the edge of the vortex.
"Its attention... seems to be really attracted." The girl said while looking at the battle in the distance.
"It seems that I guessed correctly." Xia Fan nodded. When the White Sands launched the first round of attacks on the Twin Icons, the latter's two heads had been staring at the junction of the upper and lower city areas, as if this way they could grasp the opponent's every move.
At the same time, he also discovered a key point, that is, the demon did not seem to be able to directly control the strong wind outside the vortex, otherwise it would have sent all the ships that could only be propelled by sails into the water.
And even the least powerful eight-pounder can easily fly over half of the upper city.
If it were not limited by the shooting angle, the attack on the demon would be much more severe.
But this is enough for now - too many ants can kill an elephant, let alone all kinds of naval guns. As long as it can directly hit the evil demon, whether it is an explosive bullet or a solid iron ball, it can cut off a piece of "meat" from it. The enemy's resurrection speed is also very fast, and a wound several inches wide can be repaired in more than ten breaths, but this is definitely not without cost, and Qi is the source of its existence.
Even if the hired workers of Baiguoyuan provide it with a large amount of cohesive energy, it will eventually run out of energy if it continues.
Therefore, the icon significantly increases the frequency of summoning small charms and gallows demons.
Because of this, its sight has not left the front for a long time.
"I don't think the fleet can last long, should we act now?" Taxis said anxiously.
"No, we only have one chance. We have to wait until the count is ready." Xia Fan patted her back soothingly, "Don't worry, you will definitely be able to break through its storm barrier this time."
"Yeah." For some reason, Taksis felt that her originally uneasy heart had calmed down a bit, as if what the other person said would definitely come true.
Is this what a partner is for
The advantage of fighting alone is freedom and flexibility, without having to worry about the situation of others, so she used to act alone most of the time.
Now it seems that there is no merit in two people fighting together.
At this moment, three bright red flares were shot from the White Sands, drawing a clear trajectory in the rain curtain.
That was the agreement where the plan started!
"Let's go!" Xia Fan said immediately.
"Hold on!" Taxis flapped her wings and jumped into the vortex area.
At the same time, the Earl of Cleveland led several elite dragonborns into the battlefield from the southwest and went straight towards the evil demon!
The sea ship's artillery fired faster at this moment, as if they were going to use up all the remaining shells in one go.
Shangcheng suddenly seemed to turn into a boiling pot.
This is Xia Fan's plan - to use multi-faceted and multi-level attacks to make the demon dizzy for a moment, focusing on one thing and another, thereby ignoring the fatal attack from the blind area of vision.
The White Sand's two main cannons only fired at the demon's head, forcing it to use its wings to block the bombardment; the free warships recruited could share the defensive pressure and consume the opponent's evil spirits. If you want to deal with the White Sands, you must first destroy the more than thirty ships surrounding it. If you want to destroy this fleet, the evil spirit must invest considerable energy in commanding his men.
The Earl of Cleveland was the plan's second insurance policy.
He represents the aerial power of Azure Keep and is responsible for further attracting the remaining attention of the two heads.
When Xia Fan first proposed this combat plan, the lord agreed without any hesitation. This is his city, and in order to protect Azure Castle, he doesn't mind putting on his shirt and charging again.
"Get out of my territory, monster!" Cleveland spat out fireballs one after another, creating a series of shocking explosions. Fummy and others also followed suit, and sure enough, the twin icons stretched out their arms towards them.
Immediately, a dragonborn was blown away and crashed into a building on the ground.
Taxis further increased her speed.
At this moment, she was like a flying shuttle, falling rapidly in the storm, launching the final sprint towards the back of the demon's neck.
Facing the needle-pricking raindrops, Xia Fan could hardly open his eyes.
He could only judge the remaining distance by the sound—
Three miles left.
Two miles.
One mile!
This distance has exceeded the closest position that the trial team could reach before, and the enemy's huge body is now close in front of us!
The last half mile!
At this moment, as if the demon sensed something, a head suddenly turned around!
In an instant, Taksis felt that the blood all over her body had solidified.
The eyes of both parties met, and for the first time she saw unconcealed hatred and murderous intent on the face of the "Holy Son".
"We've been discovered!"
The demon raised his huge palm, and a new black vortex suddenly appeared in his palm.
That was obviously not an ordinary strong wind - it wanted to kill her in one breath!
"Lord Yongyi, please leave the defense to us!" Suddenly, a black shadow enveloped her, "Just keep moving forward!"
Taxis suddenly felt that the strong wind around her became lighter.
She froze for a moment and raised her head.
Des Moines spread her wings to protect the top of her head.
No, it's not just Des Moines—
The other members of the trial team also gathered around at some point.
Compared with the number when they set out, they were obviously much smaller, but even so, everyone still followed the formation when the magic was performed, and tried their best to protect her.
"Sir, I have thought about it... I really still want to fight with you to the end -" Des Moines said loudly, "With or without Hera's blessing!"
