Lord of Rot

Chapter 292 Rocket Arrow Rain
The female corpse in a floor-length skirt suddenly tilted her head, and the two flowers growing out of her eye sockets trembled slightly.

Li Qi, who was far away in the Iron Wall Fortress, opened his eyes instantly.

"Supernatural!"

At that moment just now, the corpse bird was crushed and exploded by a powerful invisible force.

Just like the Water Fairy crushed the ghost in the mine, if Li Qi hadn't disconnected quickly enough, he might have been severely impacted himself.

But just the contact just now made him very uncomfortable!

Only by being in contact with the water fairy, Li Qi could have a glimpse of the extraordinary and have a general understanding of its strength.

The possibility of the opponent being Transcendent is more than 90%. If he conflicts with it, the chance of survival is not high.

If the other party came directly to Iron Wall Fort, the possibility that this city wall could block him... no more than 1%!

"It hasn't noticed Iron Wall Fort yet, but that's only a matter of time." Li Qi pondered: "It must be dealt with, as well as all the vine corpses of Iron Valley."

Li Qi released two more corpse birds.

Fly to the southernmost Hazelnut Village and the closer Lilac Villages respectively.

It is also very important to determine how many enemies there are on this land. It is best if you can find survivors, which can increase your vitality.

"Send another dead bird to guard near the Beech Village... no, it might scare the snake, so put it farther away."

After thinking about it for a while, Li Qi temporarily decided to wait for the strength to gather, mainly to clear the nearby thorns and dead bodies, sort out a relatively safe area, and then consider the idea of ​​marching northeast.

After the dead bird approached Lilac Village, it was found that there were a lot of vine corpses here, and they were wandering on the ground.

Numerous houses were destroyed, and it seemed that there had been a fire. Only a few houses were still intact, and more houses were burned to ruins by the flames.

Then, the dead bird that went to Hazel Village was also found.

Compared with Beech Village, which only had corpses of vines left at a glance, and Lilac Village in ruins, Hazelnut Village still retains traces of human life.

Villages are still functioning normally.

Some archers stood on the roof, patrolling with arrows in hand.

There are also many farmers who spontaneously formed patrol teams.

The village is lit all night long.

A vine corpse rushed out from the shadows. It was also difficult for Li Qi to perceive the existence of corpses that also had no signs of life, as if these corpses never cared about the dead corpses controlled by Li Qi remotely.

"Whoosh!"

An arrow with flames flew out, it was not very accurate, and it missed and stuck on the ground.

It can be seen that the shooter is also rushing to the shelves and learning temporarily.

The vine corpse is still moving forward.

"Whoosh!"

Another arrow flew out, and this time it accurately shot at the corpse of the vine, and set the corpse on fire with a "boom".

"It's oil!" Li Qi suddenly realized.

The arrow made with oil in a special way will instantly ignite the vine corpse after hitting it.

Li Qi finally felt better: "Finally, a village has been completely preserved, and the oil should be near Zhenzi Village."

Looking at the situation, the dead body in Hazel Village is not too serious, far from the level where the shoulders of the corpses in Beech Village are touching the shoulders, and the toes are touching the heels.

"You can give priority to saving Hazel Village, and then gather strength to go north."

The most important thing is to find a way to get rid of the corpse of the red dress woman who is very likely to be above the extraordinary!
……

In the early morning of the next day, the bare red sun just showed half of its head.

"Yawn" The porcupine soldier on vigil yawned holding his musket.

He raised his hand to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes.

In the morning of March, the morning dew was still very cold.

A layer of water mist gathered on the armor, and the fingertips were wet when they rubbed lightly.

He rubbed his cheeks, and said to his companion, "I want to go to the toilet, help me keep an eye on it."

The companion waved his hand, yawned and said, "Stand on the city wall and pee outside. If Mr. Quickblade or Mr. Lacey sees you leaving your post without authorization, then you will be miserable."

Thinking that some soldiers were indeed punished for leaving their posts without authorization, the soldiers were shocked: "That's right."

After a while, an arc descended from the battlements.

He shuddered to urinate and pulled up his trousers with a random flick twice. The soldier's face changed slightly, but he didn't shake it clean, and part of it flowed down the trouser leg, and his body became very uncomfortable.

He quietly reached out and tugged on his pants twice, pretending nothing happened.

"What?!" The soldier's expression changed suddenly.

"What, did you pee on your hands?" The companion wiped his eyes, and just glanced out of the wall out of habit, but the smile on his face froze in an instant.

A dozen or so shaky figures came out of the woods.

"There is a situation!" He quickly raised his musket.

……

Bang!
Li Qi, who had just had breakfast, suddenly heard gunshots outside.

He dropped the bread and rushed out, shouting, "Carrot, get my things!"

"Yes!"

Radish hurried to get the plate armor that Li Qi maintained and repaired, as well as weapons, bows and javelins, etc.

Li Qi boarded the city wall.

Pulling away the soldiers who were about to load gunpowder into the medicine room, looking down, corpses entwined with thorns came from the depths of the woods shaking.

Quick Blade and Lacey also rushed over as soon as they heard the gunshots.

"Tell them to stop shooting!"

The whistle quickly conveyed Li Qi's thoughts.

After a few scattered gunshots, the city wall became quiet, only a burst of pungent smoke that could not be blown away by the breeze floated in the air.

"They won't be able to attack for a while," Li Qi said, "First save ammunition, throw stones down, or shoot arrows."

There may be tens of thousands of vine corpses in the entire Iron Valley. If you only shoot with muskets, the ammunition will not be able to support it.

And the distance is too far, if the musket can't hit the head, it is pure waste to shoot.

The thorn corpses are different from humans. Humans will lose most of their combat power if they are shot, and they may use the wounded to cause a drag on the enemy. But the dead corpses are not afraid of death, and ammunition hitting them is pure waste!
There are so many corpses below, thousands of them gathered in a short while!

"My lord, they are going to climb up!" Quick Blade shot down a crossbow and shouted at Li Qi, "What should I do?"

The corpse stepped on the corpse and was climbing towards the city wall.

But the number is still too small. Although there are thousands of vine corpses, they are actually only stacked three layers, and the distance from them is still far away.

The real problem is that there is a steady stream of corpses, and if it continues, it will eventually break into the city.

A dead bird flew outside.

Li Qi wanted to see why this army of vine corpses kept coming. The dead bird he used to monitor in the Beech Village did not notice the movement of the vine corpses. The situation in the other two villages was similar, and there were no large-scale occurrences. The movement of the dead body.

"Something attracted the corpses of the vines near the Iron Wall Castle, making them gather involuntarily."

The final number will probably be around [-].

"Stop shooting first!" Li Qi shouted.

"Go collect some oil and make rockets," Li Qi ordered, "It is not allowed to shoot arrows alone, and act as a group after hearing the order from the whistle!"

The order was passed on, and a portion of the soldiers rushed down the walls to collect the oil.

Soon, Lacey returned with a smile and a large barrel on her shoulders: "My lord! We found half a barrel of kerosene in the castle!"

"Okay, let's divide."

The soldiers used pieces of sackcloth, or simply found some clothes, cut them into pieces with a dagger and soaked them in fire oil.

After the oil has absorbed enough, tie the cloth piece to the arrow.

The crossbows and crossbows of hundreds of militiamen in Iron Wall Fortress had an effect at this time.

For those without arrows, the stones were directly wrapped with pieces of cloth.

Everyone held their breath and waited quietly.

The corpses below were still howling unconsciously, and they scrambled to hit the wall of the Iron Wall Fortress.

The pile of corpses has become more and more.

Li Qi held the bow in his left hand and the ticking arrow in his right hand, still not planning to move.

Throat squirmed slightly.

More than two thousand vine corpses have been gathered!
A piece of black.

The creeping thorns on the body surface and the small flowers growing on the body are weird and frightening.

Li Qi controlled the dead bird to hover in the sky.

It can be determined that the follow-up vine corpses will not exceed a thousand at most.

"Fire!" he yelled.

The soldiers lit the cloth strips with the firewood with sparks that had been prepared beside them.

Those vine corpses gathered together at the bottom are completely targets.

"shoot!"

Swish swish!
With a salvo, hundreds of flames fell into the crowd of corpses, bursting into flames instantly.

None of the entangled corpses could escape.

Moreover, the thorns and vines on the body were easily ignited, which made the fire of the city defense more and more intense.

"Go on!" Li Qi shouted.

The whistle sounded his orders.

Another batch of flaming arrow rain fell from the head, because the corpses below were too crowded, densely packed together, even soldiers who were not very good at using bows and crossbows could shoot with their eyes closed.

Shooting non-stop, some of the soldiers' bodies couldn't take the crossbow, and they were already panting from exhaustion.

The corpses below, however, ignored the "predecessors" who had been burnt into coke, and still rushed towards the city wall one after another.

"My lord, the kerosene has run out!"

"..."

"My lord, they shouldn't be able to attack!"

Running out of kerosene is bad news, but there are hundreds of intact corpses left, and some of the remaining movable bodies have been completely cooked and charred.

Li Qi ordered: "Everyone rest!"

A dead bird monitoring from the sky has also confirmed that there will be no more corpses coming in a short time, so you can take a rest with peace of mind.

The soldiers who received the order finally stopped and almost fell limp to the ground.

Some soldiers' legs and feet were trembling, but they laughed and discussed the battle just now.

"We can only wait for them to attack the city too passively."

Li Qi secretly said: "Calculating the time, as long as Guy leads the team to set off in time, he should soon enter the range of my mental power!"

When the flames outside the city wall were extinguished, there were only a few hundred corpses still struggling to climb, but now everyone was tired and no one had time to take care of them, so let them rub against the wall first.

It was breakfast time when he rushed out, and it was already afternoon when Li Qi returned to the castle.

He was eating lunch, and suddenly his spirits shook.

"coming!"

The 200 elite corpses who followed the simplest order followed two ghouls, Guy and Nils.

"Good job." Li Qi was quite satisfied with Guy's actions.

It is definitely impossible for Guy to remotely control 200 dead bodies, and Li Qi can't do it himself, but he can easily do it with a little mental power if he applies the action order he wrote last night.

"It's time to launch a counterattack!"
