"Pitter-patter … Pitter-patter …"
In the rhythmic beat, the Giant Hammer Mantis Shrimp had already moved to the other side of the redoubt unhurriedly. It raised its upper body high again and punched out with its million-ton punch in one ten-thousandth of a second!
Boom!!!
In the intense friction, the air was ionized. Dazzling flames burst out, and bricks, iron cannons, and twisted human bodies rose into the air again.
The second redoubt was destroyed in one day!
However, the soldiers stationed on this redoubt abided by their determination and oath to fight to the death.
Until the last moment before the Mantis Shrimp's attack arrived, they were still pouring scorching iron cannons and even lead bullets from ordinary guns onto the sea monster!
Because of their sacrifice, their remaining comrades finally had a chance to take a breather.
The chitin shell on its body was finally damaged to the point that even the sea monster had to pay attention to it. It took countless steps and slowly moved away from the redoubt.
However, it was only temporarily away from the "middle dike" where the eight-pound cannons still remained. It was still thousands of miles away from completely retreating into the water.
Also, because of the loss of two redoubts, there were blind spots in the redoubt's originally perfect firepower net, which allowed the sea monster to recover at ease.
Obviously, when it regrouped with the strong recovery ability of the sea monster, it would mean the end of the redoubt!
However, at this moment, the soldiers stationed on the redoubt had already made a plan.
A team of well-prepared soldiers was ready to go.
Led by an adjutant who had lost an arm in the attack of the 'Mantis Shrimp', each of them had two heavy alchemy bombs hanging on their waists. The atmosphere on the wall was solemn and stirring. It was obvious that this was a suicide squad!
The shell on the back of the Giant Hammer Mantis Shrimp was so hard that it could not be killed in a short time even if large-caliber cannons were fired at the same time. However, the abdomen that was not covered by heavy armor might not be the same.
They were going to attack from the abdomen of the Mantis Shrimp to create an opportunity for Major General Coverdale, who was also not in a good state at this moment!
"Mr. General, please rest assured. We promise to complete the mission!"
The adjutant saluted the general for the last time with what was left of his hand and solemnly promised.
The major general, whose mind was as hard as iron, opened his mouth but could not say a word for a long time.
Although today's battle wasn't the most disparate battle the general had ever experienced in his life, it was the one that made him feel the most aggrieved.
"Water Cannon Cetus" could only passively defend and could not counterattack. "Giant Hammer Mantis Shrimp" could attack and defend, and was invulnerable. The Iron Seahorse and Ghost Shrimp that had not participated in the siege were still eyeing them covetously.
Now, he even wanted to send his close subordinate who had worked with him for many years to his death! Even the battle-hardened major general felt a deep sense of powerlessness …
Finally, he took a deep look at his adjutant and looked away. He seemed to remember all the members of the suicide squad who were missing arms and eyes. Knowing that time was of the essence, the general finally squeezed out a word from between his teeth, "Go!"
The gate at the bottom of the castle had already collapsed when the tsunami hit. Their only choice now was the city wall.
The rope ladder was quickly lowered.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
When the adjutant led the way down the fort, he was also noticed by the Water Cannon Cetus Constellation in the distance. Numerous water cannonballs landed on the stone fort, causing the heavily damaged fort to tremble continuously.
Not to mention the "water cannonballs" that were not very fast, even if knives fell from the sky, they would not be able to stop the footsteps of the "suicide squad".
Holding onto the parapet at the edge of the "central dike", the adjutant was just about to slide down the rope ladder when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a flock of snow-white seabirds flying in the distant sky from the corner of his eye.
The seabirds themselves were not strange. What was strange was that they were holding something in their claws and were in a neat formation. They were like a well-trained air force.
Flutter!
At the same time, a needle-tailed swallow had already arrived above the fort and flew straight to the major general who was standing on the "central dike".
A clear message was thrown directly into the general's heart.
"Sir general, I am Elvin. My seabirds will launch an air attack on the sea monsters immediately. Please command the soldiers to cooperate with the attack."
After a moment of shock, the general immediately reacted and reached out to pull the adjutant who was already outside the wall back.
"Quick! Quick! Quick! Gather all of our small cannons and musketeers who can still move to the "central dike". "
Since the Solomon family of the Tylon Kingdom was a "gem", of course, the senior officials were not unfamiliar with the means of the wizards. After receiving the news that Elvin's reinforcements had arrived, Coverdale was instantly energized.
The surviving garrison moved quickly. The 8-pound cannon was only a little more than a ton. In a very short period of time, the remaining six 8-pound cannons were quickly moved to the central dike that was facing the "Giant Hammer Mantis Shrimp".
The arrangement was just completed.
The air force formation of 20 white seagulls had already flown above the "armored train" and began to dive down to throw the [Powerful Voodoo Potion] in their claws.
They were already familiar with this kind of work and already had an extremely high hit rate, even if it was a sea monster that was constantly moving.
Especially the two strong hammer-shaped "plunging limbs" of the "Giant Hammer Mantis Shrimp", it was the seagulls' main target!
Although the "Mantis Shrimp", which was only a few months old, had amazing battle intelligence, it was far from experienced. It did not realize that the little things flying above its head were a threat at all. It did not even bother to drive them away.
Therefore, it paid the price for its carelessness.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Thick dark green fog exploded on its upper body and surrounded it. Even the strong wind by the sea could not blow it away.
Sizzle … Sizzle … Sizzle …
In the sound of the shell melting and corrosion, the "Mantis Shrimp" finally realized that something was wrong and began to roll on the ground quickly, trying to get rid of the terrifying poisonous fog.
Boom! Boom!
In an instant, the ground shook like a train derailed!
In fact.
Extraordinary power was also based on the physical body. No matter how big the body became, the composition of the chitin shell of shrimp and crabs was similar.
Chitin, protein, and calcium salt each accounted for about one-third. Maybe it was due to the difference in living environment and species, but these three main substances would not change.
In an extremely unstable berserk state, the [Strong Voodoo Potion] that could even melt glass bottles was a thousand times stronger than the artillery against the chitin biological armor of the "Mantis Shrimp".
It was said that there was always something to overcome something.
If the poisonous fog was given enough time, there might be nothing left in the shell of this powerful sea monster except for chitin.
This was also the advantage of the wizard profession. As long as there was enough preparation and a plan to deal with it, the wizard almost had no shortcomings.
It was not unheard of for a rank 2 official wizard to kill a rank 3 professional.
After blindly struggling for a minute, the "Mantis Shrimp" that had escaped the shooting blind area quickly became a soft-footed shrimp.
When the major general saw the opportunity, he immediately ordered, "Fire!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The cannons roared.
Even if it was only an 8-pound cannon this time, the effect was far greater than that of a 32-pound cannon.
The biological armor that was originally not inferior to iron armor had become much thinner and more brittle. Even if it was hit by a shell that was only a quarter of its original weight, it could easily crack open a crack. Even lead bullets were no longer ineffective.
However, even in the face of the double attack of the poisonous fog and the cannons, the "Giant Hammer Mantis Shrimp" had no intention of returning to the sea to hide.
Instead, it changed its initial cautious style and rushed with all its strength toward the redoubt that was closer to it than the sea as if it had gone berserk.
Clang clang clang …
Because the calcium salt melted and the protein denatured and loosened, the fiercely vibrating shells rubbed against each other and made a loud noise. The "Giant Hammer Mantis Shrimp" that was nearly a hundred meters long was like a runaway train, rushing from the rammed earth slope of the first floor to the foot of the third redoubt.
It raised its upper body and once again launched an invincible hammer strike at the center of the redoubt.
Then.
Crack!
The strange movements made it seem like even it was a little startled.
When it lowered its head, it only saw the broken limb that was emitting a stinky green liquid!
The effect of the force was mutual. The powerful "plundered limb" that was the focus of the attack had long lost the invincible hardness that it had at the beginning.
With the huge force of the sea monster's body colliding with the rock fortress, the "heavy hammer" that was as brittle as a biscuit was directly smashed into pieces?
However, before it could react.
Two 32-pound heavy cannons on the redoubt that was close by had already fired at its head.
Boom!
Boom!
Its carapace, which had almost been completely destroyed, could no longer provide it with effective protection. Two 32-pound iron cannonballs easily drilled into its head, rolling and cutting off its central nervous system.
Clang!
The terrifying behemoth that was once unstoppable fell heavily to the ground.
The second large species was confirmed to be killed!
At the same time, nineteen large seabirds that were larger in size and higher in weight also carried alchemy bombs to the sky above the "Water Cannon Humpback Whale."
The opponent that was out of reach for the redoubt was nothing to the seabirds that had the air supremacy.
Just to guard against its "bombardment," the "Black-feathered Frigate Bird" and the "Great Albatross" dropped the alchemy bombs in their claws from a few hundred meters above the sea monster.
With the current intelligence of the seabirds, after training, they were able to use this easy-to-operate alchemy weapon.
Then.
Boom!!!!
At this moment, the fire was monstrous and the waves were surging.
The sea seemed to have been overturned!
