Chapter 31 The defense line collapses

 “Amber, prepare to fight!”

Although Griffith could not see the battle behind the city wall, the powerful pressure that caused the mutation was clearly imprinted on his mind.

 The infection hidden in the body of the wounded is activated by the power of the Death Knight, spreading death and infection among the living.

“Won’t you wait a little longer?” Amber felt that the number of living corpses on the front line was astonishing, and some were not sure what a small number of reinforcements could change.

Griffith shook his head and said:

"The defense line is hopeless. The infection no longer needs to kill humans to transform them. The speed of spread is not at the same level as before. I think there is no need to hide such a powerful force until now. If it had been brought out earlier, the whole city would have fallen.

.That death knight should be the key to causing mutation.

"It is difficult for the Death Knight and the Extraordinary to tell the winner in a short time. However, the injured will mutate quickly under its power. This is a situation that was completely unexpected before. It is impossible for the Extraordinary to fight against the Death Knight and block the infection at the same time.

Spread. Soon, several barriers will collapse, and I am going to rescue my companions."

After Griffith finished speaking, he began to check the horses, lances and armor. He glanced at Amber and said: "You stay here, don't take action yet, and respond to me according to the situation. Once everyone is rescued, we will take them to evacuate."

Let’s go to the lower city to straighten things out.”

"Don't you need me to cooperate with you?" The blonde girl shook her head and said while unfolding her gloves, "This place is two miles away from the barrier. Within the range of my infantry attack, we can still cooperate if we encounter a strong enemy.

.”

“No need,” Griffith had already calculated clearly, “my goal is to create a gap among the living corpses. I will use the speed of the war horse to avoid the more powerful ones among them, without having to decide the outcome with them.”

 …

Thousands of living zombies are rushing towards the barrier, screaming. Some of them come from the western countryside, and some refugees who did not have time to escape into the city were killed by the living zombies who took the back route, turning into another terrifying force.

tide of corpses.

The huge undead army was surrounded from all sides. They squeezed each other, and each stepped on a wave of black corpses stacked two or three meters high, roaring towards the barricades from the streets and alleys. Whenever the living corpses in front were hit by rockets and horseback

After being eliminated, the following zombies immediately stepped on the remains of the same kind to take up their positions, and continued to attack the fortifications without fear of death.

 “Hold on!”

Several officers and non-commissioned officers stood on the top of the barrier, holding flags and shouting to the city defense troops around them. The black tide of corpses hit the earthen walls and horses under their feet, making a shrill and terrifying roar, and there were even a few corpses

The tattered corpse was thrown into the sky.

 “Drive them down!”

The soldiers who refused to defend the barrier stabbed with spears and smashed with hammers. Bursts of obscure and weird noises erupted from the dense tide of corpses, and green and black corpse fluids flew everywhere.

 The soldiers threw jars filled with kerosene and then cast torches. The flames immediately exploded in the tide of corpses, forming countless scythe-like whirlwinds of death.

The positions of these attacks were all chosen at the densest place in front of the barrier, and the large groups of zombies were instantly burned into fireballs. The strong smell and dense explosion of corpse liquid made people sick. The fire oil tanks ignited with blazing flames.

On the battlefield, the densely besieged living corpses were burned into pieces.

The crackling and crackling sounds kept ringing on the street, and huge holes appeared in the raging tide of corpses like torn rags.

 However, the undead creatures almost did not pause, passing directly over the ground that had just been swept by the flames, once again filling the gap under the barrier.

 Under the attack of thousands of living corpses, the three barriers guarding the intersection began to waver once again.

The effect of attacking these death-defying undead creatures with broken limbs with swords and guns is not ideal. Even fire arrows often pass through the gaps between the bones and fail.

 Although the defenders of the position fought very actively, except for a small number of Extraordinaries among them, the lethality of the weapons in the hands of most of the city defense troops and militia soldiers was weakened to a very low level.

The knocked down living corpses were scattered under the fortified deer village, one layer on top of another, and soon turned into a pile of corpses containing more than one person.

Human warriors were originally still ravaging the living corpses who were unable to fight back from a high position, but soon these monsters were able to grab their ankles and bite them or drag them off the fortifications.

The shield guard, who carried a shoulder shield and held a steel ax in his hand, swung his battle ax and swept across, smashing the monsters climbing up in front of him with one blow, but in the blink of an eye, the second batch had already rushed up.

I don’t know how many soldiers covering the battlefield have been replaced. The most experienced soldiers were injured and were killed together in the sudden change. The militiamen who were just sent to fill the front line could not hold on for long before they screamed and were dragged down.

The tide of living corpses stretched out countless rotten, withered arms and claws, grabbing the screaming militiamen, and instantly drowned them like a deadly swamp.

 “Hell!”

The shield guard who was too late to rescue yelled in annoyance, took half a step back, pulled off his helmet, and shouted towards an arrow tower in the position:

“Ophelia, the zombies are coming! Use your invincible magic eyes to think of a solution!”

As soon as he finished speaking, several living corpses had climbed onto the deer village at the feet of the shield guard, grabbing at his ankles. More undead creatures were trampling on the corpses and skeletons under their feet, like a huge wave towards the barrier and Photographed by Luzhai.

The soldiers on the fortifications almost uttered a cry at the same time, turned around, jumped off the barrier, and fled backwards. As they fled, they were swept away by the wave of corpses and disappeared in a burst of gnawing.

The shield guard held up his strong shield to resist the four or five living corpses that rushed forward, and the battle ax in his hand swept over again. However, this blow could not be recovered.

More living corpses and broken living corpses came from behind and hung like bunches of grapes on his arm armor and gauntlets. His calves were also unable to move as if they were stuck in the mud. The swarms of monsters drowned him like a tide and knocked him down. As he gnawed on the ground, not even a ray of light could come through.

Do you actually have to use your trump card in a place like this!? The shield guard shook the undead creature on his body in annoyance, but he couldn't break free. The thick helmet made his vision unclear, and he could only hear a burst of sound. There was a ding-ding-dong-dong banging and biting sound.

Suddenly, a gap was torn open in the dark tide of corpses in front of me, and a bright silver light bloomed.

 The pressure on the shield guard was relieved and he was freed with a struggle.

On the low walls and deer villages full of ferocious zombies, a graceful and graceful figure flashed past. She walked smoothly between the uneven obstacles, and even stepped on the heads and shoulders of the zombies deftly, before they noticed Just jumped over it.

Ophelia has arrived for reinforcements.

She took out three arrows that shone with light green light from her quiver and shot them in the direction of a group of soldiers who were surrounded by living corpses.

 The first arrow penetrated the heads of four living zombies and knocked them down.

The second arrow shot through the spine of a huge ghoul, directly exploding it into flying bone fragments. The arc-shaped shock wave and fragments overturned the undead creatures that came up.

The third arrow missed all the living and dead, and penetrated into a wooden wall. This seemingly missed arrow then tore apart a wooden stake, causing half of the nearby wooden wall to fall down, directly blocking the wall. It occupied a gap where the living corpses were pouring up.

Three consecutive shots, three consecutive shots that combine killing, blocking and blocking the enemy!

A city defense team that was in despair just now was saved from the brink of death in the blink of an eye. Before they could cheer, Ophelia's agile figure had already flashed to another position, heading towards a person with a special figure among the corpses. The huge stitch monster shot away with an arrow.

 “Bang!”

The hit Stitch Monster had suffered a series of blows before, and was eating a corpse while shaking its head, trying to rely on its strong vitality and recovery ability to overwhelm the defense line. Suddenly it was hit head-on, and its head was protected by thick carrion.

It burst immediately.

Like a flash of light, Ophelia jumped at the most dangerous position on the about-to-collapse battle line, shooting the strongest enemies one after another, and actually repelled the tide of corpses rushing up the barrier by herself.

At this time, other city defense troops were not idle either, throwing torches and barrels filled with kerosene.

In bursts of explosions, the fortifications on the position burned, and the living corpses that followed were swept into the sea of ​​​​fire.

With the fire, the defenders also retreated one after another, bandaging their wounds or hurriedly drinking water and eating some dry food in the center of the position.

Ophelia nimbly walked through the ruins and jumped back to everyone. When the shocked soldiers saw her, they all supported their tired bodies and stood up to pay tribute to her.

"43:19, I'm ahead by a huge margin!" Ophelia ignored everyone and went straight to the shield guard, taking off her helmet and raising her chin proudly. She held an exquisite light green longbow and wore tight black leather armor.

The red crystals and patterns outline the seductive curves at just the right position. The long golden ponytail swings happily, and together with the heterochromatic eyes, it exudes a fascinating beauty.

She was replenishing herself with arrows as she spoke. There was originally a pot full of arrows on her back, but they were all used up in a few dozen seconds of fighting.

"Awesome, awesome, you are the best!" Midianmeiya took off his helmet, found a clean handkerchief from the small bag beside him, poured some potion on it and handed it over, "Quickly wipe it."

 “Did it flow again?”

"Um."

“Why don’t I feel it? Sure enough, I’ve become stronger again!”

Ophelia's beautiful blue and red eyes were flashing excitedly. However, the red eyes were shedding gurgling tears of blood, which together with her beautiful appearance was simply shocking.

Mediameiya drank water slowly, without any nervousness or optimism on his face, and calmly glanced around the position.

In the crisis just now, the officers of the city defense army, who were about to be unable to resist, began to set fire to stop the enemy. This temporary barrier position made of low walls and wooden fortifications had been burned into a ring of fire by the raging flames.

The guardians can feel the heat wave on their faces.

In the firelight and thick smoke, vague shadows can still be seen, staggering into the fire and burning. Every time this scene is repeated, the dense shadows behind the fire smoke will become clearer.

 This position must be abandoned...

The two forts not far away were in the same situation. Seeing that they could not support themselves, the defenders set fire to the fences and deer stockades of the camp one after another, using the fire to buy themselves some breathing time.
