Soul of Searing Steel

Chapter 280: We need professionals

Views:

This golden puppet is nearly twenty meters tall, even a half-dragon is not as tall as it. Its shell is extremely smooth, reflecting the surrounding light like a mirror. The monster rushes towards the array of armored convoys, and the ground is covered The heavy footsteps vibrated and roared, and countless mud and rocks flew up, raising a large dust mist.

During the advance, countless artillery shells bombarded the golden stone demon, but even armor-piercing shells could only hit pits on its smooth, mirror-like surface. Occasionally, they would even be bounced away, leaving no impact at all. The opponent's pace.

Of course, Hei also noticed the other party. The half-dragon's eyes changed, and it felt a sense of danger from the other party. It was a unique resonance between beings of the same level.

—This stone demon is as strong as the golden realm!

After enduring so many attacks, but still without any obvious trauma, the stone demon reached the front of the armored vehicle array in a few steps. The two light spots in its eyes flashed, emitting a bright light. The golden stone demon raised its huge fist and smashed it towards the nearest armored vehicle.

The shell of the Elf's magic armored vehicle is made of a special alloy. Although it is not indestructible, it is the strongest material among the most cost-effective options. The average stone demon cannot smash it even if it uses all its strength to collide. Its destruction will at most deform the vehicle body and stun the people inside. Generally speaking, as long as it is equipped with sufficient ammunition, an armored vehicle can stably eliminate four or five ordinary-level stone demons without damaging itself.

But in the face of this golden stone demon's overwhelming blow, the strong armor was like a small box made of paper. It was easily smashed into a ball of scrap metal with a loud noise, and the magic energy furnace inside the armored vehicle died on the spot. Explosion, a terrifying shock wave surged out, but it could only knock off a few pieces of debris from the stone demon's fist.

Without any hesitation, Black let out a low roar. The half-dragon didn't even use a beam attack, but ran at full speed and flew towards the opponent.

The light beam it used before was actually dragon's breath. Dragon's breath is a long-range attack method unique to dragons. Each dragon is different. The mouth and throat of the Black Refining Dragon do not have an organ to condense energy, so the energy from the chest is Core convergence.

Hei knew that his dragon's breath was powerful, but because it took the form of a high-heat beam, it might not be able to cause much damage to the stone demon with a reflective shell in front of him. On the contrary, its dragon claws were extremely sharp. At least it is much harder than the opponent's body. Compared with long-range attacks, it is more efficient to deal with such a difficult opponent by hand-to-hand combat.

In the eyes of others, in just a moment, the two giant beasts collided together. The violent collision of hundreds of tons of weight caused the terrifying wind pressure that could even tear the flying stone demon off the air. He screamed in pain. With a sound, the opponent's body was like steel, even harder than steel. Although its carapace and dragon scales were tough, they were still just flesh and blood. Such a violent impact was indeed extremely painful.

But the other party didn't have any choice but to see the dragon's claws flashing with cold light drawing a trajectory in mid-air, and several huge wounds appeared on the right arm of the Golden Stone Demon. While he and the other party were entangled, , Hei hit him closely, then opened his mouth and bit, and immediately tore off the stone demon's already fragile right arm.

Without one right arm, the stone demon lost its sense of balance. Hei threw the heavy stone arm away from his mouth and knocked it to the ground with a sweep of his tail. The half-dragon's chest began to quickly gather energy, and before the opponent could wait, After getting up, a blazing beam of light followed the opponent's damaged right arm and went straight into his body.

The next second, the golden stone demon that was still trying to stand up became motionless, and then collapsed into countless golden rocks from the inside out.

It was only then that Nelson realized that the battle between the half-dragon and the stone demon was too fast and fierce for the old man to fully understand. After the battle, the elf professor belatedly exclaimed: "Adamantine Stone" Demon! An adamantine stone demon actually appeared!"

The mother tree is above. This is a terrifying existence that is so powerful that it requires several fortress cannons to be bombarded to ensure its kill. Now it is killed so easily? !

After marveling, there was no time to continue to sigh. Since Black had solved this biggest enemy, the armored convoy and Black Dragon successfully broke through. However, it did not stop and rest, but continued to move rapidly towards the capital of Babel at high speed.

—The capital of the province of Babel.

Gray dark clouds enveloped the entire sky, and from time to time a light rain would fall. The cold and moist air surged, making everyone unable to help but wrap up their clothes tightly. This was different from the severe winter with heavy snow in the north, but an irresistible dampness and coldness.

Using the buildings outside the capital of Babel Province as temporary fortresses, countless federal soldiers resisted the continuous attacks of stone demons. Huge rock monsters attacked from all directions. Their huge bodies could easily crush the magic vehicles. No matter what, If a solid building is hit by them, it will also suffer huge damage.

Even with the help of fortifications, it would be difficult for the soldiers to deal with such a huge enemy. If it were in the wild, with the high mobility of armored vehicles, the federal army would not be afraid of the stone demons, but now behind them are several demons from the capital. There are hundreds of thousands of elven civilians in the large shelter. They must not retreat, otherwise, even if only one stone demon successfully invades, there will be a river of blood.

At the fork in the street, the sound of artillery fire and the sound of heavy footsteps are continuous. Aim, fire, aim, fire. The repeated actions make the soldiers' spirits tense like strings. The ticking sound of rain falling to the ground is wearing away all the time. With their nervous patience, facing a steady stream of monsters that seemed to be endless, these stubborn soldiers felt extremely exhausted.

It had been more than a day since the Volcano Dragon left, and they had been surrounded by a large number of stone demons that suddenly descended on the city. From sunrise to sunset, facing the same or even getting stronger enemies, the soldiers seemed to have been frozen in time. .

In a temporary fort that was converted from an ordinary house, several soldiers were numbly loading the barrels, taking aim, and firing at the stone demons ahead. They used narrow intersections to resist the enemy in a planned way. In the attack, huge stone puppets continued to pour in from the entrance of the street. Without wisdom, they did not care even if they saw their companions being smashed into pieces of stone at the same position. They were still bombarded into pieces without warning. Bits and pieces.

One fortress is responsible for one direction. In addition to these few soldiers, there are many other soldiers who are in several other fortresses, responsible for defending against stone demons in other directions. Thousands of such temporary fortresses block almost all possible routes to the refuge. Directions and roads, fire network perfect.

Nowadays, only ordinary and steel-level stone demons appear. With this kind of defense, it is very simple to defend.

But as the sky gradually fell into the night, the gray sky and clouds enveloped the city, and a thin mist began to fill the air. This made it more difficult for the soldiers to aim. Perhaps because of this, a stone demon that seemed to be a steel-level stone demon could still rely on itself. The hard body broke through the fire blockade and rushed to this small fortress.

Without any punches or any other movements, the stone demon just hit it. It relied on its own weight to collapse half of the entire small fortress. The walls collapsed and the ceiling collapsed. A soldier was unable to escape and was killed. Suddenly a wall collapsed and pressed down on him, and his entire lower body suddenly turned into bloody mud.

After the other fortresses noticed this, they immediately took aim and fired a cannonball, directly killing the stone demon. However, the consequences were irreversible. The pinned soldier was already on his deathbed. He knew that he He seemed to be trying his best to say something due to the fact that he was about to die, but before he could speak, blood loss took away his consciousness.

"No! You can't die yet!" The soldier's friend, a half-elf, hugged his body that had lost a lot of blood and roared. The soldier's hands were full of the other party's blood and internal organ fragments, but his grief-stricken cry did not No matter how useful it is, it is impossible for a person to lose half of his body and still be alive.

Under the invasion of the stone demons, they did not even have time to feel sentimental, because the next wave of stone demons had arrived again. Although their fortress was destroyed, the people had to move to other places to continue to resist these huge monsters. Monster invasion.

The two sides of the war are unfair. One side is a stone puppet with no blood, no tears, and no fatigue. The other side is just an ordinary elf soldier. They need to use the terrain, equipment and even the lives of their comrades to resist the unstoppable torrent of rocks. Especially after the emergence of mithril-level stone demons, only large fortresses have reserves of armor-piercing bullets. If a small fortress is targeted by a monster of that level, the only option is to abandon the fort and escape.

Just when these soldiers were about to move to other places, the sound of extremely heavy footsteps came from the distance. This sound caused all the surrounding buildings to begin to shake slowly, which was enough to prove that the opponent was huge, far beyond everyone's imagination.

A few seconds later, just as everyone had feared, a huge figure appeared from the corner of the street, and easily trampled a house into ruins. Everyone was shocked.

Veterans who have participated in the Battle of Cold Wind Valley naturally know what it is. It is the strongest unit known to the opponent after the invasion of the Stone Demon - the Adamantite Stone Demon!

"It's over, we are all going to die..."

Instinctively, these soldiers kept retreating. They looked at the mirror-like shell of the Adamantite Stone Demon, their eyes full of despair. They were all ready to die in the next moment. No one thought of resisting. They carried the Bows and arrows and alchemical equipment are completely impossible to break through the opponent's defense.

But just in despair, a thunderous roar came from the distance, and another huge figure suddenly appeared not far away. It charged rapidly towards the Adamantite Stone Demon, and then knocked the monster down in an instant. , the half-dragon waved his claws, tearing apart the body of the stone demon under him, and the high-heat elements surrounding his body swept away the coldness brought by the surrounding drizzle.

The soldiers were stunned and couldn't say a word for a long time, but as a beam of light condensed on the black chest and completely destroyed the adamantine stone demon, cheers and praises suddenly echoed in the streets.

—The main city of Moldavia.

"So, you can't be sure when the space-time channel will open?"

The black-haired warrior who was teleported directly from afar was sitting in the reception room of his lord's mansion. He frowned and looked at the paladin in front of him. His expression was serious: "We can only wait now?"

"perhaps."

Shrugging, the paladin took a sip of tea. He blinked and said helplessly: "After all, I am not a magician. Maybe I should call someone who knows magic to come over. As you know, we need professionals."
