"Aooo! Aooo … "
“.....”
Under the concentrated barrage of arrows, javelins, and spears, a figure leaped out of the horde of monsters. It roared as it stomped on the monsters around it, leaping into the air and sprinting towards the eastern arched door. ¥f
At the same time, with Yang Rui and the others' eyesight, they could also see that the calf-sized monster was pierced by many arrows and javelins. There was even a scorched area on its abdomen. Clearly, the roar just now wasn't just due to anger, but also because it had suffered considerable damage.
"Bastard, where do you think you're going?"
Seeing that the leader of the monsters was trying to escape, Yang Rui quickly grabbed a soldier's bow and arrow, nocking three arrows in a row and shooting at its figure.
There might be a large number of monsters in the base, but with Yang Rui's skills, it shouldn't be a problem for him to charge in and fight the monster leader. Moreover, with Gao Shun's support, he shouldn't be caught in the crossfire.
However, Yang Rui was in the north of the second level of the colosseum. The distance between him and the monster leader wasn't small at all. Even if Yang Rui wanted to charge in, he wouldn't be able to do it in time.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Yang Rui's three arrows shot towards the figure like shooting stars. Even though they were all using the same weapon, these three arrows were several times faster than the attacks of the Fourth and Fifth Grade soldiers. They arrived behind the monster leader in the blink of an eye.
Even though Yang Rui hadn't practiced any archery skills, and only relied on his profound internal energy and strength to shoot three arrows, the power contained in these three arrows was already very shocking. If he could hit the monster leader, then the monster leader would be dead. Even if it didn't die, it would at least lose a layer of skin.
However, the accuracy of the three arrows was slightly off. The monster leader was also very alert and agile. Just as Yang Rui thought that the arrows would successfully hit their target, two of the arrows brushed past the monster leader's fur. Only the last arrow managed to hit the monster leader's right hind limb.
"Aooo! Awoo … "
The monster leader staggered as it was smashed into the dense horde of monsters by the powerful arrow. What followed was another wave of resentful and angry cries.
Although Yang Rui's arrow did not directly kill the monster leader, it had successfully delayed the monster leader's movement. Then, a large number of "cannonballs", javelins, arrows, and so on were about to completely drown the monster leader's fallen position. One could almost imagine what would happen to the monster leader!
Aooo … Wu … "
“.....”
Just as disaster was about to befall them. The monster leader's roar became louder and louder, and the pitch of its voice was different.
The monster leader's cry was like a bugle call to charge. Under the monster leader's call, all the monsters around it seemed to have received another command. Almost all of them responded to the call and swarmed towards the monster leader, surrounding it so tightly that not even a drop of water could pass through.
"Focus fire!"
Yang Rui immediately understood the intention of the leader of the monsters. It was using the 'meat wall' tactic to save its life. So, he gave the order again, and the monsters that were tightly gathered together began to attack fiercely.
Aooo … Wu … "
The concentrated attacks came like rain, setting off waves of blood. Especially the bombardment of the large cannonballs, which blew up a large number of monsters from time to time. However, the monsters in the base plane still gathered around the monster leader without fear of death, trying to fight for the last chance of survival for it.
Even so, the monster leader's roar slowly slowed down after a while, and the roar became softer and softer. No matter how thick the meat wall was, it was still made of meat. It could not completely prevent the monster leader from getting hurt. Judging from its roar, it seemed to have been heavily injured.
After a while, the surrounding monster corpses had piled up into a small hill. The monster leader's roar also gradually became fainter. In the end, there was no sound coming from it. It must have died.
At the same time, the monsters in the base plane returned to their previous chaotic and leaderless state. This also confirmed the final outcome of the monster leader.
"Large cannonballs, archers, chariots, restore the attack range from before …"
After seeing this scene, Yang Rui ordered the flag bearers to restore the defense to its original state.
While concentrating on dealing with the monster leader, the pressure on the defense of the eight corridors was not small. Fortunately, at this time, due to the destruction of the monster leader, the monsters in the Colosseum were under the effect of the Four Symbols Maze again. After suppressing the monsters in the corridors, the defense of the entire Colosseum at the bottom level was restored to its original state.
"Mr. Xu You's eyes are really sharp. You saw through the details of the monster leader in an instant. This time, the situation could be stabilized so quickly, thanks to Mr. Xu You!"
Yang Rui praised Xu You. Xu You could guess that the monster leader transmitted information through smell or hearing. It could be said that Yang Rui and others were the key to quickly destroy the monster leader.
Otherwise, if the monster leader had been controlling the monster tide, it would take a lot of effort to deal with it!
"Thank you for the praise, Lord Prefect, Xu You will do his best to assist Lord …"
Such sincere praise suddenly made Xu You's face flushed. Yang Rui's affirmation this time was the most definite since Xu You followed him. Xu You still cared about this very much.
Yang Rui naturally praised Xu You again. At the same time, he also expressed a similar meaning to Guo Jia and others. Without Guo Jia's Four Symbols Maze as the premise to trap and confuse the enemy, the current situation would not be so easy.
"My Lord, there seems to be a monster leader among the birds above as well. However, after my Lord scattered the wine, the monster leader should have been affected as well. The problem seems to have been solved …"
At this time, Zhang Ning reminded.
In fact, Yang Rui also noticed the situation above the Colosseum, but because the monster leader in the base plane was delayed, he did not have time to pay attention to it.
"Squeak! Squeak … "
Unlike the monsters in the base plane, although the flying monsters in the air above the Colosseum were also affected by the Four Symbols Maze and the smell of wine, the Chieftain ranked flying monsters could still continuously transmit orders through sound channels. Moreover, there was no situation where they were directly surrounded by the defending side.
Therefore, although the attack efficiency of a large number of bird monsters was greatly affected, the overall attack rhythm did not change much.
To these birds, the Colosseum was equivalent to a mysterious place shrouded in a smokescreen. Under the command of the bird leader, they swooped down into the open dome of the Colosseum step by step.
Although it was not guaranteed that every dive was an effective attack, the birds would immediately lose their direction after diving into the Four Symbols Maze, but this kind of attack had never been stopped.
"Wise Master An Shihan, Master Vonbliss, Honorable General Lai Like, I saw that there seemed to be some tricky problems in the defense of the upper level, so I came to take a look …"
After stabilizing the defense of the Colosseum at the base level, Yang Rui jumped a few times again to the "Three Founding Elders" and asked with a very concerned look.
In fact, at this time, Yang Rui was more and more suspicious of the information revealed by the "Three Founding Elders" and the leaders of the civilization strongholds. From their descriptions, there was no mention of encountering a monster leader on the first day of the Beast Tide. Moreover, a monster leader appeared in the second wave, including a bird and a monster on the ground!
"Oh, thank you, Master Blazing Sun, for your trouble. Although the appearance of the monster leader makes the Beast Tide somewhat difficult to deal with, the first few waves of defense should not be a problem. It's just that the defense at the back may be relatively more difficult …"
Wise Master An Shihan was the first to respond, but his eyebrows were deeply knitted together, and it seemed to be somewhat inconsistent with the content of his words.
"Oh? Wise Master An Shihan, so the appearance of the monster leader is just a coincidence? You guys never told me that this kind of situation would happen before!
I don't know if this is really just an unimportant accident, or am I thinking too much? I always feel that the appearance of the monster leader seems to be a variable in this Beast Tide. This kind of situation that is more difficult to deal with has already appeared in the second wave. Are you sure that everything is under control?
Remember, this is only a beginner level monster, and it is already so difficult to deal with. As the monster's level increases, the situation will only get worse and worse. If there is some information that I am not clear of, if something goes wrong, it will not be good for everyone … "
In the current situation, Yang Rui did not pay attention to the method of communication. He had already felt that there might be something fishy about the "Three Founding Elders" and the other leaders of the civilization strongholds. If he did not ask clearly now, he would only be more passive in the future.
"Sigh, since Master Blazing Sun has asked several times, it has reminded me of some special situations. According to the records of the former residents of the Death Island, when the monster leader appears in the previous Beast Tide, it may indicate some changes in the Beast Tide.
However, this is a situation that will not happen for a long time. Previously, we all assumed that such a situation would not happen, so we ignored it. Now that Master Blazing Sun mentioned this, it reminded us … "
Under Yang Rui's questioning, the three old guys were silent for a while, then they seemed to inadvertently exchange a few glances, and finally Master Vonbliss opened his mouth and said.
