Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 848 The advancing monster
Facing such a powerful enemy, Shi Lei would not give him too much preparation time.

Not to mention that reality only gave him two days...

"WAAAGH!!!"

Accompanied by a strange war cry, the green-skinned creatures that appeared outside Yuancheng began to advance.

After receiving the news, Shi Lei climbed onto the wall as quickly as possible.

"Every team is getting ready according to the plan! Hurry!"

While shouting, Shi Lei looked outside the wall, and then directly activated the 'Eye of Insight' to observe the green-skinned troops in the distance.

The ferocity and burliness of those green-skinned creatures are basically visible to the naked eye. There are some red lines carved on the green skin, almost all over the body. They are also wearing some simple clothing, which only protects the chest, shoulders, wrists and other vital parts. Or protective gear for joints.

The weapons in their hands are not uniform, and can even be said to be diverse. Some hold a machete, some hold an ax, some hold a spear, and basically use anything.

From the equipment point of view, they looked like a patchwork force, but judging from the information he had learned so far, the strength of this no-name force was quite terrifying!
Scanning his eyes, Shi Lei's attention quickly fell on the green-skinned monster among them.

Compared with ordinary green skins, the monster is four to five meters tall, and it is quite eye-catching when standing among the team.

At the same time, as mentioned in the intelligence, the monster also carried a suspected battering ram-like weapon on its shoulders.

Under the observation of the 'Eye of Insight', Shi Lei was almost certain that it was the battering ram, but it had been removed from the vehicle by the opponent.

After the initial observation, Shi Lei temporarily removed the blessing of the 'Eye of Insight'.

The distance is still too far now. If you want to see the attribute panel on the opposite side, you have to wait until the opposite side gets closer.

According to specific tests, if you want to use the 'Eye of Insight' to view the panel, the distance between the target and the caster cannot exceed fifty meters, and it has not yet entered that range.

As the green-skinned troops continued to advance, the burly green-skinned monster soon came to the front of the team.

This change was expected by Shi Lei.

Just like their siege troops in the Great Zhou Dynasty would first blow up the opposite city gate with three-bow crossbows, and then the siege troops would start to advance.

When a tactic is very easy to use and can bring them the most intuitive effect, why would you need to change it? Isn't that unnecessary?

These greenskins obviously know this too.

Occupying the view from a high place, Shi Lei's attention was basically focused on the advancing green-skinned monster.

The green-skinned monster looks fat and strong, but in fact it is not bulky. As an infantry unit, its movement efficiency is definitely not low.

This also made Shi Lei fully understand that under normal circumstances, the three-bow bed crossbow could not effectively snipe him.

As his thoughts flew, the green-skinned monster had already entered the fifty-meter area.

Without hesitation, Shi Lei once again activated the 'Eye of Insight' to find out.

But the result surprised him. The expected attribute panel did not appear.

Regarding this situation, His Majesty specifically mentioned it to him when he gave him the 'Eye of Insight'.

Normally, you cannot see the target's attribute panel using the 'Eye of Insight'. There are only two situations.

One is that the target is not within the identification range of the 'Eye of Insight'. For example, extraordinary creatures like Chitose cannot be seen by the 'Eye of Insight'.

Another one is that the target level is on par with the caster, or even higher than the caster. Zhou Xu himself has encountered this situation, and it is also the most complicated. This 'level' is a comprehensive assessment.

According to Zhou Xu's current research, the target's spiritual level, life level, and even individual strength can all be classified into this 'level', and will all have an impact on this area.

There are so many influencing factors that it is difficult to have an accurate standard.

Shi Lei couldn't figure out the reason for the moment. After all, if you call the green-skinned monster an extraordinary creature, it's not that he couldn't understand it.

Shi Lei did not lose his position because of the failure of the 'Eye of Insight'. He took a deep breath and kept his mind in a clear state, able to operate at high speed at any time and respond to all emergencies in a timely manner.

During this process, the green-skinned monster continued to advance.

The distance of fifty meters can be said to have passed in the blink of an eye. At this moment, the green-skinned monster was less than ten meters away from the city gate.

As the distance continued to close, the opponent had even grabbed the battering ram on his shoulder in advance and was ready to forcefully smash the city gate in front of him.

As a result, at this moment, with that step, the ground under the green-skinned monster suddenly collapsed! His huge body instantly lost its balance.

Needless to say, in order to deal with this monster that was beyond common sense, Shi Lei and the others adopted the simplest and crudest method, digging holes and traps!

Using the labor force of 2,500 soldiers, Shi Lei dug a large pit outside the city gate in the shortest time, with a length and width of ten meters, and a depth of more than ten meters!

The existence of this pothole directly sealed the city gate on this side of Yuancheng, making it impossible for them in the city to leave the city from this side.

But Shi Lei doesn't care about this now!

As long as I can kill that troublesome monster, what is the price?
As the ground collapsed, the steel gun hidden at the bottom of the pit was completely exposed to the air. The dark bottom of the pit still exuded a chill!
At this moment, the battering ram in his hand undoubtedly became a drag on the green-skinned monster. In an instant, the steel gun saw blood! The sharp steel spearhead penetrated directly through the green-skinned monster's flesh!
Immediately afterwards, a deafening roar erupted from the bottom of the pit.

"You're not even going to die?!"

Listening to the roar that was so powerful, the expressions of the soldiers on top of the wall changed.

Shi Lei was equally surprised, but having vaccinated himself in advance, he controlled his emotions in time and issued the order as quickly as possible!

"Quick! Hot oil!!"

On the wall of Yuancheng, large pots of hot oil have already been boiling.

At this moment, regardless of the cost, they all fell towards the hole under the wall.

At the same time, each archer leaned half of his body out of the wall and shot the lit fire arrow in his hand towards the hole!

In an instant, accompanied by shrill screams, flames soared into the sky from the huge pit! The soldiers at the top of the wall were startled.

Even if they poured kerosene in the past, they would not pour it so crazily. This was the first time they had seen such an exaggerated formation.

I was thinking to myself, 'I'm going to die this time, right? '

But the screams that continued to come from the fire pit kept reminding them that the monster was still alive.

And it was at this time that a huge burning hand suddenly stretched out from the soaring fire, and then its fingers were fiercely clawed into the ground outside the pit!

"WAAAGH!!!"
