The Maple Kingdom's army under the city wall began to move. The players on the city wall, as well as the thousands of "militia" recruited by the Nature's Heart Missionary Group, stood behind the battlements and prepared for battle.
The ballistae were pulled up, and the Magic Crystal Cannons were aimed outside the city wall. The magic guns and bows were aimed at the army outside the city, waiting for the enemy to enter their shooting range before launching an attack.
Yeye also raised his magic gun.
Although he was a warrior player and didn't have much magic power, it didn't stop him from having fun with a couple of guns while defending the city.
The wind whistled in his ears, and the flags hanging high on the city wall rustled in the wind. The original medieval city background music in the game system became the blood-boiling "For the Glory of the Goddess" along with the sound of the horn. Yeye felt like his entire universe was burning.
At this moment, he felt like he was the main character of this world! He was the hero of this war!
He gripped the bowstring tightly, and his cheeks flushed with excitement. He was also a little nervous.
Although his rationality told him that this was a game, the shock of the army pressing down on the city wall and the realistic stimulation that his five senses felt made his adrenaline rush.
When he couldn't help but look at Facing Wind Bar beside him, he realized that this veteran player was also very excited.
"Big Brother Wind, haven't you participated in a few large-scale wars? You even attacked a half-orc city, why are you still so excited? "
Yeye couldn't help but tease him.
"Hey, it's different! This is a war with humans. Compared to the human army, the armies and cities of other races are not on the same level. Don't you think … this is more like a medieval war! "
Facing Wind Bar adjusted the height of the ballistae as he replied.
Hearing his words, Yeye subconsciously looked back.
His gaze swept across the medieval city of Augus City, the Forze Stronghold that stood proudly on the hill, and the well-equipped army of the Maple Kingdom outside the city. He then nodded his head in agreement.
Such a scene was indeed shocking. It was as if he was in a movie!
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but open the system and click on the screenshot option.
While Yeye was crazily taking screenshots in the system, he heard Facing Wind Bar cursing in a low voice.
"F * ck, humans are humans after all. This NPC's IQ is way higher than a Beastman's."
Yeye was slightly taken aback. He then followed Gale's gaze and looked outside the city walls. He saw that the Maple Kingdom's army had stopped before they reached the city walls and the fortress' firing range.
Then, the army slowly changed their formation. Rows of soldiers pushed wooden boards with wheels out of the army formation and began to move in the direction of the city.
As far as the eye could see, there were probably more than 5,000 people.
They hid behind the barrier and slowly moved toward the city wall.
"It's an archer! We'll attack once they're within range! Aim the ballistae at those defensive vehicles and destroy them! "
In the live chat channel, the City Defense Battle Commander All Star Ah Can shouted.
Archer!
Yeye clenched the magic spear in his hand and took a deep breath, preparing to attack.
The defense chariots under the city slowly moved and finally entered the range of the ballistae.
At this moment, All-Star Ah Can's roar once again rang out in the live chat channel.
"Ballistae, listen to my command — Attack!"
Following his command, nearly a hundred whooshing sounds could be heard from the city walls.
One after another, huge spears and arrows flew out, carrying the radiance of skills.
Most of them missed, but a few hit their targets.
The defense chariots that were hit were instantly torn apart, revealing the archers behind them.
However, even though the defense chariots were destroyed, these archers did not retreat. Instead, they either retreated behind other defense chariots or spread out in formation with their shields raised and continued to move forward.
Soon, they entered the range of the archers.
"They're in range! Attack! "
The player gave the order.
Hearing the order, Yeye took a deep breath and pulled the trigger of his magic spear.
In an instant, the city walls roared as blue magic elemental bullets and arrows rained down on the archers outside the city.
After a round of attacks, hundreds of archers who were slowly moving outside the city fell instantly.
Despite that, they did not stop. Instead, they continued to move for another 100 steps before they stopped one after another and began to draw their bows to counterattack at the city walls.
Thousands of elite Empire archers fired in unison. The players on the city walls were also greeted with a shocking rain of arrows.
"F * ck! Find shields! Otherwise, they would have to find cover! Quick! "
Facing the Gale Bar was shocked.
Looking at the oncoming rain of arrows, Yeye and Nainai also raised their shields in a fluster.
The arrows flew down, and Yeye only felt a heavy blow on his shield, almost pressing him to the ground.
At this moment, he suddenly heard the Gale Bar's exclamation beside him.
"F * ck! It's a stone bullet, Coconut Nainai, dodge! "
Hearing the anxious voice facing the Gale Bar, Yeye's heart pounded.
Suddenly, all the hair on his body stood on end, as if he was being stared at by something terrifying. A strong sense of danger rose in his heart …
That was one of his skills, [Danger Foresight].
He did not have time to look up to see what was going on. He hurriedly pulled the girl beside him and jumped to the side.
Just as he jumped to the side, he heard a deafening sound. A heatwave rushed toward him, bringing with it countless pieces of gravel.
Yeye looked at the place where he and Nainai had been standing just now. A huge stone bullet had smashed the place, creating a huge crater. The bricks were shattered, and the cracks on the wall extended very far away …
Shattered rocks were everywhere, still burning with raging flames, and choking black smoke rose into the sky.
Seeing this, Yeye's face could not help but turn pale. He did not dare to imagine what would have happened to him and Nainai if they had not dodged.
Although it was a game and players could be revived, but … such a realistic scene would definitely have a huge impact on one's soul.
Even though he had gradually gotten used to the rhythm and bloodiness of Elf Nation through numerous battles, Yeye still felt his throat go dry at this moment.
"It's a trebuchet! They're using trebuchets! F * ck, where's the divine barrier? What's wrong with the guild?! "
Facing the Gale Bar cursed.
Not long after he finished cursing, more exclamations came from all over the city walls.
Yeye looked up and saw streaks of burning 'meteorites' with black smoke trailing behind them in the sky.
These meteorites drew a curved arc in the sky and smashed toward Augus City.
Under Yeye's shocked gaze, these 'meteorites' landed all over the city, smashing houses into smithereens and setting them on fire …
On the city walls, he could see the panicking citizens in the city. He could hear the exclamations of the human NPCs, the crying of children, and the screaming of women …
The rain of arrows continued to pour in from outside the city walls. From time to time, players and militia who were unlucky enough to be hit by the arrows would fall. However, the former's corpse would slowly disappear, while the latter would fall into a pool of blood and never move again.
Yeye even saw a few Silver-tier bosses who usually played around with the magical beasts in the wild. But at this moment, they were easily hit in the vital parts by a few arrows that were shot from an unknown direction outside the city, and they died instantly.
What was worse was that they were unlucky enough to be hit directly by the 'meteorites' that fell from the sky. After a loud boom, not even a trace of blood could be seen.
The smell of blood and burnt flesh assaulted Yeye's nostrils. He shuddered and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with his hand.
He looked at the players on the city walls who were constantly shooting outside the city, and then looked at the densely packed gray soldiers outside the city through the shooting holes. He let out a deep breath …
At this moment, his hands were trembling.
Before the war started, Yeye had been looking forward to this celebration. However, when the war really started, Yeye realized that when a game was so realistic that it could be mistaken for reality … the shock it brought was not something that could be described in a few words.
At this moment, he felt that he was actually quite small.
In this war, no matter how powerful a player was, he was just an insignificant soldier.
At this moment, along with the cheers, Yeye saw a golden pillar of light suddenly shoot up into the sky from the direction of the Forze Fortress …
The pillar of light shot up into the sky and quickly spread in all directions. Finally, it turned into a pale golden defensive barrier.
The defensive barrier enveloped the entire city. Only the vertical direction of the city walls had a gap that was about three meters high.
A whistling sound could be heard, and several more meteors with billowing smoke came crashing down. However, this time, they only smashed into the defensive barrier, causing circles of ripples to appear on its surface.
Then, under the golden light, those meteorites directly turned into ashes and disappeared.
"Hahahaha! The Divine Barrier has been activated. Let's see how their catapults can still be so arrogant! Hahaha! "
On the side, there was laughter from the Gale Bar.
This warrior player looked up at the sky and then looked at Yeye who was still in a daze. He patted Yeye's shoulder and said,
"Why are you in a daze? Hurry up and fight! It's your first time fighting such a big war. You'll get used to it soon! "
After hearing the words of the Gale Bar, Yeye nodded.
He took a few deep breaths and adjusted his state of mind. Then, he picked up his magic gun and rejoined the battle.
With the protection of the Divine Barrier, the players on the city walls were much more relaxed.
Although the arrows from both sides were still raining down, they didn't have to worry about something crashing down from above.
Yeye fired randomly at the city walls, but he didn't kill a single one. He regretted that he didn't use the Heart Arrow skill.
Gradually, after realizing that the catapults couldn't cause any damage to the city walls, the Maple army outside the city changed their formation again.
The bugle horn sounded again, and the army formation changed again.
The soldiers of Maple split up from the army, and began to move towards Augus City with scaling ladders that were used for sieging cities.
"Hehe, are they going to storm the city? They don't even have siege towers? Coconut, be careful. It's the best time to harvest experience points! "
The Gale Bar said with a smile.
Yeye nodded. He took out a bottle of magic potion and drank it to replenish his mana. Then, he raised his magic gun again.
Outside the city walls, the attacking Maple soldiers moved quickly.
They seemed to have gone mad. They yelled and charged toward the city walls.
The elemental bullets and arrows rained down, and the soldiers fell like wheat being harvested. Even so, the soldiers didn't stop.
When the soldiers of the Maple Kingdom approached the city walls, Yeye frowned slightly.
The equipment of these besieging soldiers seemed to be much worse than the archers from before.
Many of them didn't even wear armor. Instead, they wore black, white, and gray robes made of coarse cloth. They wore simple hoods and white scarves, and they only had one weapon in their hands.
"Are they cannon fodder? Light infantry? "
Yeye said with a frown.
"Oh? Do the Human armies have cannon fodder for attacking the city? Didn't the intelligence say that they have heavy-armored soldiers for attacking the city? "
The Gale Bar was taken aback as well.
In the world of Segers, supernatural powers were the main force. Even on the battlefield, professionals were the main force of the main force.
Apart from a few intelligent races who would use servant armies like goblins as cannon fodder, most races preferred to use heavy-armored Extraordinaires when attacking cities.
Especially the humans.
The Holy Mania Empire was best at heavy-armored soldiers and Siege Towers.
The gamers had done their homework in advance. They were prepared for a bloody battle on the city walls.
At this moment, looking at the crudely equipped soldiers outside the city walls, the gamers were surprised.
Though the soldiers were crudely equipped, their morale was strangely high.
They seemed to have thrown their lives to the back of their minds. Even though they were charging and falling, none of them retreated.
There were too many of them …
Batches of soldiers died in battle, but there were always more soldiers from behind to replace them.
Finally, braving the arrows and magic spells of the gamers, the crazy soldiers charged to the bottom of the city walls.
They placed the ladder on top of the city wall and began to climb up from the bottom.
"Coconut, get ready for battle!"
The Gale Bar reminded her.
Yeye nodded and put away his Magic Gun. Then, he unsheathed his Longsword.
The first batch of Maple soldiers ascended the city walls and started fighting with the gamers.
On the other hand, Yeye was also confronted by the short and skinny Maple soldiers who were wearing white headscarves.
The soldier raised a short sword and roared as he charged at Yeye.
Yeye's eyes flashed, and he stabbed with the longsword in his hand.
What shocked him the most was that it was just a probing attack, but he was able to easily stab the sword into the soldier's chest ….
Not a supernatural being!
This thought instantly appeared in Yeye's mind.
A gust of cold wind blew over and blew off the soldier's scarf.
Under Yeye's shocked gaze, a wrinkled face was revealed.
It was the face of an old woman.
Moreover, it was a woman.
It was an old woman.
She looked at Yeye with a trace of fear, despair, madness, and relief in her eyes …
She coughed twice and turned into ashes.
Only Yeye, who was holding his longsword, was left stunned on the spot.
The ones attacking the city were not light infantry.
They …
Were civilians.
