After learning the lesson from last time, the hippogryphs changed their tactics this time. [] They did not pounce on Roger and others from one direction like the first time. Instead, they first circled from high altitude to under the tree canopy, and then returned.
Spread out and swooped down from several directions.
As a result, Roger's soldiers had to deal with enemies from several directions at the same time, and the defensive pressure suddenly increased. Dozens of hippogryphs flapped their wings and kept changing directions in the air, until the last moment they screamed and charged at everyone.
Jump down. These monsters are extremely agile in the air. There are so many hippogryphs flying back and forth in the limited space under the canopy, and they don't even collide with each other once. This really makes Roger and others secretly shocked.
The extremely fast flying hippogryphs spread out to attack, and the role of the short archers was not as obvious as before. Although they tried hard to aim and shoot arrows, they did not hit many targets. Most of the heavy responsibility of resisting the hippogryphs fell on
On the body of the militiamen with spears.
The spear militiamen raised their spears to resist attacks from hippogryphs in all directions. Although the spear militiamen had a large number of people, they were also somewhat stretched in the face of the larger number of monsters. Often, after guarding against an attack from one direction, they would
You must immediately turn your spear in the other direction and stand ready, otherwise the hippogryph will take advantage of it.
Fortunately, these spear militiamen have an unshakable fighting will and tireless fighting power, so they can persist in resisting the attacks of monsters. If it were ordinary soldiers, they would have been exhausted from constantly changing formations and lost their fighting spirit.
But even so, the spear militiamen could not completely prevent the hippogryph attack. Two monsters found an opening and rushed into the space between the soldiers, causing a huge chaos. Although the two hippogryphs were quickly
The short sword warrior was hacked to death, but Roger also paid the price of three pike militiamen and a short archer.
Fortunately, Roger asked everyone to hide under the old tree early, using the tree trunks to block half of the hippogryph's attack space. If everyone had stayed in the open space at this time, there would be no way to parry the hippogryph's attacks from the front, back, left, right, and even overhead.
direction of attack.
But even so, the current situation of Roger and others is not optimistic. The hippogryphs have gradually figured out the best attack method, their formations are spreading wider, and their flight routes have become increasingly weird. Less than
At the last moment before launching the attack, it was impossible to guess which direction the hippogryph would fly.
In this case, the short archers can hardly threaten the hippogryphs, and they rely entirely on the spear militia to resist their attacks. In this way, the three-layer defense system arranged by Roger is missing one layer, and the law of nature guarantees that all incoming enemies will be eliminated.
Hippogryphs. But after a while, several more hippogryphs broke into the soldiers' formation. Although they were quickly eliminated by the soldiers with short swords, they also caused a lot of casualties.
"This can't go on like this!" Roger sighed, looking at the hippogryphs flying in front of him: "These guys are too cunning. If the stalemate continues, we will definitely suffer."
Hamilton, who had been silent all this time, suddenly pointed to a tree diagonally ahead and said: "Are you there? There are two hippogryphs parked up there!"
Roger was certainly not disappointed when Hamilton reminded him of this. As soon as his eyes fell on the two hippogryphs, he immediately noticed that they were somewhat different.
These two hippogryphs are larger than the others, with bright red flesh crests on their heads, and the feathers on their tails are also very long, almost as tall as an adult. These two hippogryphs have bright eyes.
During the fighting scene, several screams were emitted from time to time, causing other hippogryphs to respond in unison. It looked like the commander of the army was adjusting his troops in real time according to the situation on the battlefield.
"King of Hippogryphs!" Roger immediately understood the identities of these two hippogryphs, and his eyes immediately lit up.
Hippogryphs living in groups are somewhat similar to wolves. They are also ruled by a couple of hippogryphs. The hunting of the entire group is directed by this pair of hippogryphs, and only they have the right to reproduce. Now this pair of hippogryphs
The leader of the eagle beasts is obviously directing the same kind to launch an attack. If these two hippogryphs can be eliminated, even if the group of hippogryphs cannot immediately fall apart, it will at least allow them to organize an effective attack.
Roger soon understood what Hamilton meant, and immediately ordered the short archers to launch a volley at the two hippogryphs. However, the distance between the two sides was a bit far, and the sharp arrows had little power when they hit the hippogryphs.
A hippogryph suddenly flapped its wings, and the strong wind caused the arrows to fly away diagonally, without harming them at all.
Seemingly contemptuous of human attacks, the two hippogryphs let out a long scream together, then turned their heads in Roger's direction, with a somewhat contemptuous look in their eyes.
"I'm sorry, a pair of beasts in the Gobi Desert can be so arrogant!" Roger was finally angered by the hippogryph.
At this time, Roger only wanted to kill the two hippogryphs, and did not pay attention to other things. Since he began to become stronger than ordinary people, the passionate and wild side of Roger's character gradually came to light, which is also true for him.
A manifestation of strength and self-confidence.
Without saying anything to the others, Roger had already left the defensive formation of the soldiers and rushed directly towards the two hippogryphs. Also rushing out with Roger were several spear militiamen and dagger soldiers. Naturally, they all
He received Roger's order and followed him to protect him. Although Roger was a little passionate, he did not lose his mind and would not rush out to hunt down the Hippogriff King alone.
The two hippogryphs screamed when Roger rushed out with a few people, and a group of hippogryphs separated to surround and suppress them. The nearest hippogryphs swooped down at Roger first,
I want to kill him with one blow.
However, Roger's current strength is close to the black iron level, which is much stronger than the spear militia. With a thought, he took out a spear from the secondary space, stabbed it left and right, and quickly stabbed three hippogryphs.
On the ground. At the same time, Roger's footsteps did not stop, and he rushed dozens of steps towards the pair of hippogriffs.
Seeing that this human being was difficult to deal with, the two hippogryphs screamed and called for more of their kind to come over and help. However, Roger did not give them any more opportunities. The distance between them had been shortened by half, and Roger suddenly screamed.
With a shout, he threw his spear as a javelin.
At the moment when he threw the spear, Roger felt that his strength suddenly increased a lot. The sound of wind when the spear left his hand surprised him. The spear flew straight towards a hippogryph.
In the past, castration was not much slower than the sharp arrows shot by short archers!
