Alien Knights

Chapter 593: Shadows debut

Taking heavy steps, Alfonso returned to the expeditionary army.

Finally, he glanced at the top of the hill, put his helmet back on, and ordered everyone: "Offensive."

Ioonera grabbed Randall who wanted to step forward, and whispered, "We are the one who is playing the front line this time."

Under the latter's surprised gaze, Ionera and dozens of beast control envoys commanded their giant wolves to advance to the top of the mountain.

Ackerman watched hundreds of giant wolves approaching the top of the mountain in a scattered formation. Anxious, he walked to Alfonso’s side and said in a low voice: "There are still at least two thousand enemy troops stationed there, guns and artillery. With everything available, these war beasts can't break through the enemy's defense at all."

Alfonso looked ahead intently, and replied: "If you take a closer look at the military, do you find something missing?"

Ackerman looked back at the army behind him, then looked up at the battlefield. A few seconds later, he frowned and asked, "Are there fewer beasts? What about those guys who look like big lizards?"

Alfonso didn't speak, just stretched out the index finger of his right hand and pointed to his feet.

Seeing the opponent's movements, Ackerman was confused.

After hundreds of giant wolves approached the limit range of the enemy's guns, they began to lie down and crawl forward on the ground.

From the enemy camp on the top of the mountain, the enemy's nervous shouts were heard.

Facing these fierce looking and huge wolves, some courageous soldiers ignored the commander's command and started shooting blindly.

A person's panic, like a deadly plague, instantly spread to the entire enemy position.

At first it was just a sparse gunshot, and in the end, it turned into a continuous shooting.

However, due to the range and power, the enemy's shooting did not cause any substantial casualties to the beasts.

Occasionally, one or two hapless giant wolves were hit by a musket, and at most they just roared in pain.

Seeing the thicker gun smoke in the air and listening to the increasingly messy noise on the battlefield, Alfonso nodded and said, "It's almost time."

Ackerman was completely confused: "Is it time? What is the time to do?"

Alfonso said to a beast control envoy beside him: "Let's get started."

As soon as the voice fell, there was a sudden chaos in the enemy's defense line on the top of Yuanzhin Hill.

Trenches, bunkers, tunnels...In these fortifications, the originally solid walls were suddenly broken by huge force. Sharp monster claws protruded from the holes in the rock wall. Enemy soldiers caught off guard were torn to pieces.

"Yes... something came out of the soil!"

A gunner in the bunker looked at the five-meter-long mutant monitor lizard with double horns on its head and covered with iron scales. He was so scared that he was so scared that his limbs were limp.

The bunker unit commander sat down on the ground and watched the huge monster that had never been seen crawling closer and closer, his teeth trembled and roared: "Also...what are you still doing?! Shoot! Shoot! "

The defenders in the bunker picked up their muskets and attacked the monitor lizards.

The musket hit the monitor lizard, and accompanied by the sound of metal crashing, the bullets were bounced everywhere in a burst of brilliant sparks.

The monitor lizard, irritated by the gun attack, opened its huge mouth, and a cloud of gray-green fog instantly filled the small space.

A soldier standing in front of the monitor lizard, the closest to the poisonous fog, was sprayed all over.

This gray-green poisonous mist looks obviously gas, but when it is contaminated with armor, clothing, and skin, it is as thick as oil.

Accompanied by a puff of white smoke rising, all the objects contaminated by the poisonous mist seemed to have encountered strong acid, and suddenly they were corroded into shape.

The soldiers watched their bodies helplessly, their flesh and blood corroded by the poisonous mist, and finally only the black and fragile bones were left, and the screams of fear resounded across the battlefield in an instant.

"Retreat! Retreat outside..."

The commander who fled to the exit of the bunker had only time to say a few words. After inhaling a little poisonous mist, Qikong began to bleed, and he could no longer stand his figure. smoke.

Dozens of poisonous lizards spit out poisonous smoke slowly spreading along the bunker, trenches and tunnels. From a distance, it looked like someone had lit a firewood in the enemy's position.

More and more enemy soldiers crawled out of the trenches, abandoned their original positions, and began to avoid the poisonous gas toward the higher parts of the hills.

Along the way, hundreds of people fell on the way to escape because they inhaled a little poisonous gas.

When the church army regrouped, at least one-third of the soldiers died in the tunnels where the poison gas had accumulated.

Ackerman, who saw this scene at the foot of the mountain, was dumbfounded and could not say anything.

Alfonso sat on the stone pier, put his two-handed sword on his lap, and ordered the beast control envoy beside him: "The wolves attack."

The impatient giant wolves who had been waiting for a long time got up from the ground excitedly after receiving the command of the beast control agent, and at the speed of the wind, bypassing the group of poisonous gas bunkers, they rushed directly onto the mountain from both sides. Those fleeing enemy troops.

As long as it is a single soldier or squad, they often only need one face to face, and they will be bitten into pieces by the giant wolves.

However, in the face of the formed enemy army with more than 100 people, the giant wolf kept a relatively safe distance, and only pressed far behind the enemy army, driving them in a specific direction.

Randall, who was waiting at the bottom of the mountain, looked up at the battle on the mountain, and became more confused as he watched.

He found Alfonso and asked, "My lord, those war beasts seem to want to drive the enemy together?"

Alfonso did not speak, but just nodded.

Randall frowned and said: "According to the normal tactical arrangement, the beasts have the advantages of speed and team. It should focus on gathering and dispersing the enemy forces, forcing the enemy to be unable to organize effective resistance forces, and then break them down. Expand the results."

"But now that all the disintegrated enemy forces are driven together, it completely gives the enemy a chance to regroup. Once the enemy re-completes the defensive formation under the leadership of the commander, it will have an extremely adverse effect on our army. ."

Ackerman also came over at this time and asked: "Can the Holy Cleric attack?"

Alfonso looked up at the top of the mountain and shook his head slightly.

Randall and Ackerman, who were puzzled, followed Alfonso's line of sight and looked towards the top of the mountain.

The church soldiers who fled from the defense line have gradually gained a firm foothold, using the earth and rocks on the top of the mountain as a natural shelter, and have begun shooting at the approaching wolves.

After launching a tentative attack, the giant wolves found that the enemy's firepower was too strong, and after leaving four or five wolf corpses, they hurriedly fled towards the foot of the mountain.

Randall persuaded at this time: "My lord, let's attack. If you delay, the enemy's broken troops will meet on the top of the mountain. They can rely on the terrain to form a defensive line again. At that time, it will be very difficult to defeat them. ."

Alfonso lifted his chin toward the top of the mountain: "Look up."

Randall Yiyan looked at it again, and two faint shadows made him narrow his eyes on the top of a huge boulder on the top of the Far Ember Hills.

"I saw something flowing in the air, but what exactly is that...?"

As soon as Randall finished speaking, the two vague shadows on the top of the mountain slowly revealed their true meaning.

It was a creature he had never seen before~lightnovelpub.net~ This creature was more than ten meters long, and the spiny tail that looked like a steel whip took up half of the body's length.

It is light gray all over, with a layer of weird slime on the surface. Once exposed to light, it will appear strange visual illusions, allowing this creature to blend with its surroundings.

It has powerful limbs and a streamlined body suitable for quick and secret actions. Its posture looks like a leopard, but its body is much larger.

The upward part of its torso has no similarities with other creatures in this world.

On its long neck, there are huge fleshy sacs one by one, which are usually shrunk in the abdominal cavity, and only exposed outside the body surface when needed.

And the appearance of its head can only find a similar source in the horror legend.

A pair of completely dark oval eyeballs with no pupils visible, two pairs of weird mouthparts resembling insect jaws, and dozens of tentacles hanging from the top of the head constitute the most frightening aspect of this monster.
