Struggle in the Steam Age

Chapter 424: Monster showing up

"How did this mountain collapse?" In the chaos, Nora picked up the two priests who were running at the back and flew up, and at the same time asked Lawrence through the connection in the soul. "I have seen the bomb you just now, even in the most perfect situation, theoretically, the whole mountain should not be blown down."

"You're right." Lawrence said to the little doll as he ran with a tree man who had erected several people to rush, "Such a big scene is definitely not made by the bombs I just made. If under normal circumstances, it would take at least a few hundred tons of explosives to make such a large movement."

"But the mountain we are facing is not the same as a normal mountain." Turning his head and looking at the entire mountain that was obviously beginning to collapse a little behind him, Lawrence continued to say to Nora. "Don't forget how many bugs there are in the mountain. They have actually hollowed out the inside of the mountain, especially when there is a big guy below that is destroying the foundation of the mountain."

"You're right." When Lawrence mentioned this, Nora also realized the difference of this hill. "And the most important thing is that the group of beetles just used several tactics similar to sonic impact. This did loosen the soil and rocks on the upper part of the mountain a bit, making it easier for them to rush out. But the corresponding thing is that the whole hill has changed. Much more fragile than before, so much so that your explosion triggered a series of chain reactions."

As they quickly exchanged such information, the mountain behind them collapsed faster and faster. Even Lawrence who was running could feel that there was an air current mixed with a large amount of dust quickly hitting Lawrence and the others, causing their visibility in front of them to drop a lot.

At the same time, as the mountain collapsed, many small insects rushed towards Lawrence and the others with this airflow. Fortunately, after the collapse of the mountain, the settlements of these insects that were in the mountain were scattered to various places, so they are now rushing up. Obviously, the bugs did not form an institutional attack like just now, but just flew in scattered, so they were simply killed by everyone.

After everyone had crossed the flat ground around the hill and rushed to the selected mountain range, they stopped and looked towards the valley, only to find that the basin between the mountains was now completely submerged by yellow dust. You can't even see the location of the mountain just now.

After entering the mountains from the plains, everyone immediately set up a line of defense. Because they know that for the monster that holds the power of the gods. It is absolutely impossible to kill the opponent with ordinary physical damage of this level. So everyone must build a defensive front here as much as possible to buy enough time and space for the priests behind to hold rituals.

"It feels like the mountain has collapsed." When he went out with a few Paladins to destroy the scattered beetles and weaken the enemy's power, Lawrence glanced at the valley that began to slowly calm down and frowned. Because the dust began to fall, theoretically the top of the mountain should have been seen, but now he still couldn't see anything.

"Can you feel anything from that mountain?" Because the lower part is now covered by floating dust, this feeling of ignorance makes Lawrence a little uneasy, so he uses the power of the flame in the elemental arrow to join in. A little bit of Bai Ze's power burned a stream of beetles with the power of gods that flee to the mountain, while asking Nora who was floating in the sky to provide cover for everyone through the connection in the soul. "For example, the position of the enemy now."

"Most of the bugs in the mountain have disappeared." Nora closed her eyes and tried her best to perceive everything in front of her. Soon, she noticed some special movements. "Moreover, the location of the big guy we have been worried about before is a long way down compared to before the explosion, and is now crawling up hard."

"The better news is that maybe because of the landslide caused by our previous blasting, the whole mountain has become unstable, and it may take more time for the other party to climb up." At this point, Nara frowned slightly. Looking at the priests who performed the magic ceremony on a small platform near the top of the mountain, they lowered their heads and said. "If there are no accidents, we only need to resist for six to seven minutes on the mountain—"

However, her voice hadn't fallen yet, and a series of continuous collapse sounds suddenly heard from the mountain below. And Nora's eyes suddenly flashed light, and a few seconds later, she shouted to Lawrence and them anxiously. "Run up, that big guy looks like he's about to rush out."

"How is it possible?" Lawrence, who knew that the little doll would not lie to him, immediately greeted the paladins around him and started rushing towards the defensive circle on the top of the mountain, and at the same time asked Nora loudly. "Didn't you just say that the big guy couldn't come out for a while because of his size? Why is he about to come out now?"

"I didn't expect it either." Nora called out helplessly while summoning a large amount of silver silk thread to break for Lawrence and the others. "In the beginning, it was exactly like I said, this thing was stuck in the mountain for a while and couldn't get out. But I really didn't expect the other party to break into pieces and rush out."

"Split into pieces, how is this—" Before Lawrence finished speaking, he saw the dust below fall to the ground as quickly as it was swept by some magic, allowing the air to restore its previous visibility. Then the small hill before appeared in front of them again.

And Lawrence House closed his mouth because he saw wisps of white mist emerging from the hill that was only half the height of the past, just like a Boshan furnace with spices ignited inside. At the same time, a small stream of black beetles rushed out of the cracks in the mountain.

"What we did just now is fruitful." Seeing the sparse bugs rushing out, a paladin beside Lawrence sighed quietly. Obviously, a large part of the enemy's power comes from those black beetles with divine nature, and when they wiped out those bugs before, they actually destroyed the enemy's power in advance. If they hadn't killed those bugs just now, the enemies they faced would definitely be more difficult.

Although I don’t understand why the enemy stupidly used his important part of his power to kill Lawrence and the others like a food delivery, but anyway, this is a good thing for Lawrence and the others who are preparing to confront this monster. Good news, after all, those divine powers that have been worn away are absolutely impossible to return.

When Lawrence and the others retreated to the position around the platform on the mountain, the insects and fog basically rushed out of the hill below, and then began to gather in the clearing facing Lawrence and the slopes in front of them. Then piled up little by little, UU reading www. uukanshu.com looks like natto is pulled out and stirred together.

"Boom! Boom!" Seeing this scene, everyone immediately attacked this bunch of things with all their firepower. But it includes extraordinary powers such as magic. Even the newly captured machine guns and small-caliber infantry artillery were used. Upon seeing this, Lawrence also drew the special grenade launcher from the space bag and smashed the charged grenade on the huge pile of insects and mist mixed with monsters.

In the beginning, every extraordinary attack and the attacks of these gunpowder weapons can blow up large piles of bugs, and at the same time disperse part of the smoke from the mist. However, as the insects and fog concentrated in the middle regardless of the loss, the lethality of these weapons and spells also plummeted, even to the point where only three or two insects could be killed by one shell.

"The mist and the breath of insects are gathering together." Nora shouted out what she had just sensed. "Don't save ammunition now. Every bug killed at this time is a victory for us."

"Understand." Don't need to remind the puppets. The experienced priests and paladins on the scene know that when facing such a monster composed of countless parts, they will destroy all the monsters as much as possible while the opponent is weak. Part of it is a way of doing more with less, so at this time they can also say that they are going all out.
