Otherworldly Skeleton

"Silkworms can be turned into skeletons wrapped in bone fragments. How embarrassing are those snake-shaped skeletons with only a spine and two rows of bone spurs!" - "Bone Encyclopedia"

…………

Skeletons have many complicated means to attack and defend the city, but most of them are long-range attacks, throwing burning white wooden stakes, and using huge engineering machines to throw fishbone arrow rain, which contains highly corrosive to bones. The acid ball, etc., all these powerful killers will cause huge losses to both the attacker and the defender. Of course, as the attacker without a protective barrier, the loss is particularly huge.

How to defend against long-range attacks, there are also some methods, the most commonly used is the bone car built on the battlefield, one of the six skills of real bone is "construction", which includes the technology of building a bone car, a clever skeleton craftsman It can command thousands of subordinates and dozens of human craftsmen to build a huge chariot pulled by hundreds of oxen within an hour. The top of the chariot can fight back against the city wall. A small phalanx formed by thousands of skeleton fighters can also be followed behind.

But skilled skeleton craftsmen are quite rare, especially in this turbulent era, only the regular army is qualified to use bone-carrying vehicles, and the miscellaneous barracks where Lu Yan is located can only consume the enemy's medicine.

Therefore, the miscellaneous barracks were almost certain to die. Fortunately, Lu Yan knew a natural battlefield defense technique.

This tactic is recorded in the Bone Encyclopedia. When discussing with Lenzait, the old man also admitted that he had seen this tactic used and in actual combat. It is not very strong, but it is very simple and practical.

This tactic is formed by the cooperation of tortoise shell skeletons and silkworm-shaped skeletons - tortoise wave defense.

"The silkworm-shaped skeleton is a kind of strange skeleton. It is the same as the insect-shaped skeleton. The body that should not have bones has derived a corresponding life form on the Skull Continent. It doesn't look like a silkworm skeleton, but it looks like someone. A strange creature that has never appeared before..."

"Silkworm-shaped skeletons are completely formed by the extrusion and aggregation of circular bones. They rely on the contraction and extension of the bones of the whole body to move forward, so this makes each of their bones subject to restless friction from birth. Most silkworm-shaped skeletons The skeletons were ground to pieces by myself..."

"The bone skills of silkworm-shaped skeletons are relatively uniform. Most of the time, they are a skill collectively called bone howling waves. It is the sound waves produced by the ring-shaped bones of their whole body vibrating and roaring at the same time. The sound waves are very powerful in a short distance. Lethality, it can shatter boulders, and it can also shatter the bodies of skeletons of the same level..."

"Silkworm-shaped skeletons can form a rare way of coordinating bone skills. They are lined up horizontally at a distance of five meters. The bone whistling sound waves they generate can resonate to form a more powerful defensive surface. If they line up vertically, the rear The bone whistling sound waves of the silkworm-shaped skeletons can help the front-row companions to amplify the sound waves and make the effect more obvious, but because of the possibility of shattering the companions, it is best to use relatively low-level skeletons in the back row of the vertical line..."

The bone whistling sound wave can defend against frontal attacks, but the sides of the silkworm-shaped skull are fatal weaknesses, so tortoise shells are used for defense to form a complete defense system. There is also a slight record of this uncommon tactic on the Bone Encyclopedia, and Renzait simply called it "turtle wave defense".

Now Lu Yan is going to use a set of turtle wave defense method as his life-saving straw, and get close to Baibing City.

There was a thunderous vibration in the distance, and several red "small fireballs" flew out of the White Ice City. The troops at the front of the Miscellaneous Barracks had already made contact with the White Ice City.

At this point, Lu Yan had nothing to be afraid of. He could only keep restraining his formation, and followed the silkworm-shaped strong bones to approach the battlefield. After rushing for more than 5000 meters, they finally entered the front line of the battlefield.

Burning white wood, broken bones, and broken fishbone arrows were everywhere.The ground became a mess, and the broken bones had long covered the original rotten soil on the ground. At a glance, it was all black to the bottom of the White Ice City. Schward lost countless subordinates here.

"Come on!" Crazy roars sounded one after another from Lu Yan's left and right sides, and the skeletons roared excitedly, charging at their highest speed at the same time, and the improvised teams quickly fell out of touch.

Feeling that the tortoise wave defense formation he had formed seemed to be out of touch, Lu Yan could only climb onto the back of the silkworm-shaped Qianggu and shouted over and over again: "Keep your distance! Master Qianggu ordered you to keep a distance of five meters horizontally, One meter in length, the tortoise shell protects the two wings, keep a distance!"

The silkworm-shaped skeleton is the opposite of ordinary skeletons. The higher the level, the bigger the body, the slower the crawling speed. Therefore, as long as Lu Yan restrains the impulse of the battle bones, the entire tortoise wave defense array can barely remain intact, but in the waves It is very difficult to maintain order by shouting in the same army of skeletons. After only maintaining it for less than half a minute, the Guibo defensive formation began to slacken again.

At this moment, there was a muffled "bang" on the wall of Baibing City, and a ball of fire roared towards the top of Lu Yan's head.

Lu Yan turned around in shock, and saw that the fire was getting bigger and bigger. It was a group of white wooden piles pierced together by broken bones. There were about thirteen or four of them. , The momentum is amazing.

The fireball fell 20 meters in front of Lu Yan. The huge impact shattered the scorched bones. The white wooden pile raged among the skeletons with fire and inertia. Several skeletons were crushed, and more were maimed. Burning, screaming and waiting for death in pain, a large gap opened up in front of Lu Yan, at least hundreds of densely packed skeletons were killed immediately.

This is the power of war machines.

The white wooden stakes flew out in all directions, and two of them rolled along the throwing route with the strongest inertia and hit Lu Yan.

"Woo--" The silkworm-shaped strong bones under his feet instinctively sent out bone roars from the coming white wooden piles, and Lu Yan quickly directed the silkworm-shaped war bones on both sides to roar together.

"Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu of It was shattered, and the white wood pile that rolled to it was also shattered by the shock, and the flaming white wood fragments flew around.The tortoise shells straightened their thick backs, and their tortoise shells could withstand such weightless attacks.

It worked!

The effect of the Guibo defensive array was even better than Lu Yan expected.

Soon, the second round of blows came, "Boom! Boom! Boom!..." A gray "bead curtain" suddenly rose on the wall of Baibing City. The "curtain" goes up against the sky and flies to a height of hundreds of meters, covering the sky and the sun.

The black "bead curtain" was pressed down, and the bone weapons contained in it were finally seen clearly, it was a group of various fish-shaped ashes.

Fish-shaped ashes are actually very common, but because they are not naturally adapted to life on land, it is impossible to become a warrior. Their role is to act as a giant arrow, and the fish is full of sharp teeth The shaped ashes play this role perfectly.

The fish-shaped ashes that can be selected as fishbone arrows must be at least four meters long, and the truly high-quality fishbone arrows can even be more than 30 meters long and weigh thousands of kilograms. When rushing into the crowd of skeletons, even the strong bones didn't dare to block their edge.

With the obstruction of the wind pressure, the "bead curtain" formed by the fishbone arrows in the sky gradually spread out, turning into several sharp cold rays piercing down, and the high-altitude cold air covered their hideous fishbone with finely shattered fish bones. The ice pick adds weight and destructive power. Countless snowflakes are pierced by fishbone arrows, and immediately cut into fine white foam. For a time, the space is filled with murderous aura, and the cold wind pierces through the bones!

Tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of fishbone arrows fell from the sky, and the terrible pressure made the charging cannon fodder skeletons on the ground stagnate. Under this kind of covering blow, any individual's bravery is scum, and there is no body as strong as riding a bone , Don't even think about leaving alive.

There was a deathly silence, and all the skeletons stopped in this eerie atmosphere, looking up at the falling shadows.

It looks like the sky is falling down.

"Boom!" Fishbone Arrow Rain smashed down without any mercy. The sharp bones and ice picks destroyed every unlucky person who was hit directly, but what was more terrifying was the struggle of those fish-shaped gray bones, the huge fish The gray bones didn't die before they were smashed. They swung their bodies desperately before landing, which greatly enhanced their destructive power. The ten-meter-long fishbone bones rushed horizontally and could easily kill more than 100 enemies.

Lu Yan and the silkworm-shaped strong bones under his feet were naturally also hit by the rain of broken fish bones and arrows, but they were one of the few teams capable of saving themselves.

"Aw————————!" The whole body of the silkworm-shaped strong bone suddenly tensed up, and the ring bones of the body made a violent friction sound. It came out from the abdominal cavity, and turned into a sharp bone howling wave that rushed into the sky.

The two huge fishbone arrows that were about to fall on top of its head were immediately shattered by the shock.

Lu Yan was numb from the shock on the back of the silkworm-shaped strong bone, but he gritted his teeth and directed the battle bones behind and on both sides of the silkworm-shaped strong bone to keep roaring at the same pace as the boss.

After three adjustments, the pace gradually approached. As long as the silkworm-shaped war bones saw the huge body of the strong bone in front tense, they would tremble at the same time and send out bone howling waves.

"Aw!———————!" A real increase appeared, and the bone howling wave poured into Qianggu's body from the mouth of the silkworm-shaped battle bone, and was compressed and amplified by Qianggu, forming a sound that was far stronger than Qianggu's roar alone. All the fishbone arrows that fell within a hundred meters above Lu Yan were instantly shattered by the powerful bone roar, and countless gray bone powders fell together with snowflakes.

"Huh? What's going on here? It's so powerful?" The silkworm-shaped strong bone finally felt something was wrong, and asked Lu Yan in a low voice.

Lu Yan said angrily: "Boss, you can just concentrate on singing on the battlefield, and explain after attacking the city wall?"

"Oh, yes." The silkworm-shaped strong bone squirmed forward lazily, and at the same time adjusted the rhythm of the roar, giving the battle bones more time to cooperate and prepare: "Oh———————!"

Boom—a ball of sound waves was released in a fan-like direction, and the fishbone arrows above Lu Yan and beyond the white surface in front of him were swept away.

As if shouting "I'm coming!", Lu Yan marched towards Baibing City arrogantly.
