Just when Roland was in high spirits and was about to give a long speech on how to establish a reasonable market, the horn of the horn came from afar!
Only when the patrols are unable to cope will the warning horn of the entire assembly be sounded.
Roland and Carter looked at each other, and immediately walked out of the backyard of the castle. The personal guard had already prepared his horse, he turned on his horse and drove towards the city wall with Carter and his men.
When the group climbed to the city wall, the militia team was already in place, and a row of guns stood at the top of the wall, which made Roland a little relieved—so many eggs were finally not in vain.
He looked to the northwest, and at the end of his vision, a group of black figures were approaching Border Town. The prince estimated the number, there were about twenty.
Iron Axe trotted over from his defensive position, saluted and reported, "Your Highness, these evil beasts are a little strange."
"Strange? You mean they don't generally act in groups?"
"That's not true," Iron Axe explained. "If they belonged to swarm animals before they fell, they would still maintain this habit after becoming evil beasts—for example, wolves, but these evil beasts are not of the same species, so they shouldn't clump together. Action. Hunters have seen them fighting each other before."
Evil beasts themselves are alienated beasts, and most of them maintain the original style of beasts, and at the same time have a stronger desire to prey. In a sense, the intelligence of evil beasts is lower than that of beasts, because their manic temperament makes them forget the principle of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.
Roland carefully observed for a moment, and found that there are indeed large and small individuals in the herd, at least one can distinguish the existence of wolves and bison. But that's not evidence that they suddenly became wise and knew the importance of sticking together.
Because they were still guided by the obstacles and traps placed by the iron axe, they gradually concentrated to the position directly in front of the city wall.
Fanner felt his palms wet, and the position where he gripped the gun barrel was a little slippery. When no one was paying attention, he secretly wiped the sweat on his clothes.
The hunter in charge of observation said the same thing repeatedly: "Relax, take a deep breath." Fanner did it countless times, but still couldn't stop his racing heart. He has lived in the Western Region for more than ten years, and what he hears most is the ferocious and brutal deeds of evil beasts. Since the Moon of Demons, the sight of some scattered evil beasts being shot and killed one by one by the Orion team under the city wall eased his fear of the evil beasts. But facing so many monsters for the first time today, he still felt his legs tremble.
Thinking of himself being selected by His Highness to be the deputy of the spear team, Vanner tried his best to pretend to be calm, keeping his gun on alert.
The group of monsters was getting closer and closer to him, and he could already recognize their appearance. The one rushing in front was a bison species with two dark horns on his head that were thick enough for his arms. The hair growing on the back covered the whole body like a cloak. When it was only thirty feet away from the city wall, Fanner seemed to feel the ground trembling, and he licked his dry lips, waiting for the hunter to issue a stab command.
Then there was a loud bang.
The speed of the evil beast did not decrease in the slightest, and it just slammed into the city wall, its head shattered, and black blood splattered all over the wall.
Before Fanner could breathe a sigh of relief, the two wolves that followed had already swooped up on the back of the bison.
"prick!"
The hunter's roar came from his ears, and Fanner subconsciously handed out the spear - even though the wolf species was not in the direction of himself. The effect of the combined attack this time was obviously not as good as during the training. A row of long spears stabbed out one after another at the top of the wall. Some people stabbed the spears out when they saw the wolf jumping up, while some people heard the slogan and still did not respond for a long time. .
As a result, only one wolf species was forced to retreat, while the other jumped out of the gap between the guns and landed on the wall.
"Stay in formation!" the hunter yelled.
Although Fanner really wanted to turn his head to see where the evil beast would attack, the warning that Iron Axe repeatedly emphasized during training worked: when the attention was drawn away by the movement behind him, the front became the most dangerous. area. He fixed his eyes on the next batch of demonic beasts that were coming, and clenched the spear in his hand.
The Orion's experience is obviously much richer than that of the Pikes.
When the wolf species had not yet landed, the hunters' machetes had already unsheathed. The iron axe was even more agile, stepped directly in front of the evil beast in two steps, lifted the butt of the gun up, smashed it on the opponent's waist, and directly smashed it into the air to roll several times.
After the alienation of the evil beast, both physical strength and defense have been greatly improved, and such an attack will obviously not cause much damage to it. After it landed, it rolled over and got up, revealing its sharp fangs.
It is a pity that the muzzle of the iron axe has already touched its forehead.
A gunshot—
The entire skull of the evil beast flew up, and the body without the brain took two steps back, twitching and collapsing to the ground.
"This beast is dead, continue to guard your position!"
"Ah! My stomach—" someone screamed.
Fanner glanced out of the corner of his eye, and saw a team member leaning against the barrier, clutching his stomach tightly, his hands already covered in blood donation.
"His bowels came out."
"It was the claws of the wolf breed when it rushed up!"
"help me… "
"Damn, take a piece of cloth and tie it down!"
The scene was chaotic. Fortunately, the next few evil beasts that rushed under the city wall were all wild boars. Although they had rough skin and thick flesh, they were shot into hedgehogs by the hunters' hand crossbows at such a close distance.
"Everyone, don't panic!" Roland, who had just arrived after being stopped by Nightingale, said loudly, "Have you forgotten what to do when someone gets hurt during training? Follow the rules!"
The prince's words instantly awakened Vanara, and he remembered his responsibilities. As the team mate of the defense team for this section of the city wall, he should organize rescues when someone was injured.
He named the names of two teammates, "You take him to the medical hospital, hurry up!"
Judging from my past experience, it is basically impossible for this person to survive, but His Highness said that it is one thing to do it or not, and it is another thing to succeed.
When the wounded were carried away, order was finally restored on the city walls. This wave of evil beasts seems to be numerous, and there are only a few that can threaten the personnel above the city wall.
The Orion team shot the remaining evil beasts one by one, and Fanner breathed a sigh of relief. The whole battle was only half an hour, and he felt that he had exhausted all his strength.
At this moment, the hunter in charge of vigilance on the watchtower of the city wall shouted again, "My God, what is that..."
Vanner also saw the goal.
Although it is still a long way from the city wall, just from the outline, this guy must be a giant. Fanner swore that even if ten cows were stacked together, they would not compare to the monster in front of him.
Only the experienced Iron Axe recognized the comer at once.
He took a deep breath. Make no mistake, this is a hybrid, and they're in trouble.
