Chapter 122 the grain depot was surrounded
Chapter 122 the grain depot was surrounded
Just when witch was about to say something, the man on the watch tower shouted:” insect! Insects! We are surrounded!”
All the dark warriors rushed to the top of the wall to see how bad the situation is. It was too dark, they couldn't see very clearly Until one fire warrior “shoot” a fire torch outside the wall. The fire torch was burned by the fire energy, it was unusually bright while flew outside the wall. Insects…. Insects…. More insects…. The further fire torch goes, the more insects they discover! Until the torch drop on the ground. The swarm stopped for a second then suddenly roared Frantically altogether!
It was a trap! This was the first thought came to chu yun sheng’s mind. He has always suspected the insect has some kind of intelligence. This kind of intelligence is not the same as what we used it to describe human, it is more like the Predator’s “instinct” or other things that he doesn't know how to describe it.
Since the first time he encountered the insect, they have already shown their incredible intelligence, they were able to perform the split attack, one from the outside building, one from corridor inside the building.
Later on, he had experienced more and more bizarre monsters, the tentacle monster which is able to control the human body, flame bird which is able to see through his "play dead" trick, green fluorescent monster even able to perform a formation attack…..every single one of those incidents clearly show that they have intelligence.
Chu yun sheng suspected that the insect had already discovered the grain depot, while two large groups were busy discussing the share, they already sent out the signal to call for the large swarm to surround the depot.
Luckily, the insect did not seem to be as smart as the human. otherwise, if they wait until all the group transporting the food back and attack them while they are on the road, it is much more effective than surrounding the depot.
This also has to Thank lu guolong, he has been staying in this depot for quite some time, with his strange earth element's help, he had built the wall around the depot, there is also a watch tower as well.
The wall is very strong, chu yun sheng has tried it before, it is very hard to use insect’s leg to penetrate the wall. As long as there isn't any green shell insect or golden shell insect, they should be able to defend for a short period a time.
Red shell insects were slowly gathered outside the wall, they still have not initiate attack yet, no one knew what they were waiting for.
Since they are already exposed. so, many people started to light up the torches and stuck them onto the wall. the place was immediately lit up. and they are able to see crowded insects outside the wall clearly.
Two big group’s leader quickly gathered all small team leaders again to discuss the defence plan, based on experiences in the past, the insect’s first wave of attack usually is not a probing attack, it often is their strongest push.
Chu yun sheng was sitting on the wall and roughly estimated the situation. 5 teams, roughly 60 people, two big group has roughly 50 people, plus some people originally from the depot. So in total, they have almost 120 people.
The situation right now reminds chu yun sheng what happens in the fog city, it seems like there were more people at that time than now. But at that time, they were dealing with the flame birds, so no matter how many people they have, all they could do was just run.
Chu yun sheng also got some bullets from lu guolong, when he took those bullets from lu guolong, he saw few familiar figures next to a woman. however, because everyone was walking too fast, and he was concerned About the insects outside. The intense pressure made him believes that it was just a hallucination.
Witch’s team was assigned to the southern wall. Apart from them, there was another team and few people original from lu guolong's group, so in total, around 30 dark warriors.
Chu yun sheng heard from witch said that the west wall’s defence is led by one of big group's leader called shen shao ze, North wall’s defence is led by a woman. The rest of people are defending the east wall.
The walls are not thick, it has two layers, the outer layer is higher and the inner layer is lower, chu yun sheng was sitting on the outer layer and quietly wait for the insects to attack. He suspected that fist the first wave is very strong, then the people inside the depot will probably prepare for the breakout.
“Hum? It is you? ”
Chun yun sheng raised his head, the voice came from the girl who he met at outside the evaluation room, this girl’s name is zhou yena, she is with xie yuan and hong kun. if he remembers it correctly. But he did not see that rank 3 dark warrior hong kun.
“You joined them?” xie yuan pointed at the witch, she seems to feel pity for chu yun sheng.
Chu yun sheng smiled, but he did not answer her, instead, he asked her:”what about you?”
“Did not expect you can be this relaxed, we got into the first clan in the south district, because of hong kun. now we are working for brother shen.” xie yuan pointed at the west wall and said :”i am assigned to pass the information between walls, everyone needs to work together in case of monsters breaking in.”
“Insects are coming!” suddenly a man shouted.
All the dark warriors on the wall instantly started to move, the pressure is getting more and more intense, even the ground starts to shake because of insect’s movement!
Finally, they started to rush.
The insect’s screech did not stop at single second, clouds of dust were kicked up as the insects rushed towards the wall.
Some people who have never joined such large fight before, are so scared that their face turned pale, and their legs couldn't stop shaking. There were people even turn around and run back to the basement!
Insects are getting closer and closer, under the torch light, they could see the fire patterns on the insect's back and the sticky substance in their mouth.
“Ready…………! engage!…..engage!…. Engage!"
Instantly Many blasts of fire, icicles and bullets all flew towards the insect’s crowd.
Chu yun sheng did not aim his gun, there were so many insects outside the wall, he did not need to. He was assigned to a team that specializes in the range-attack, they were the first team engaged with the insect, once the insect got to the wall, they will pull back and help the second team which is specialized in the close combat during the fight.
Thanks to lu guolong’s hard work, the wall is almost 8 meters high. otherwise, insect could easily jump in and attack from inside.
Luckily the depot was not big, and the walls are not thick. otherwise, even though lu guolong has earth element ability, he still would not able to complete the wall.
The insects in The first batch of attack died almost half before they even get to the wall.
Everyone was happy to see the result, and they confidence was doubled.
But soon, the second batch of arrived, those monsters did not scared of dying, they crawled on top of their dead partners and trying to reach the top of the wall. The situation was getting worse.
As he expected, the first wave of attack is the strongest, the insects did not stop the attack at all, even they suffer from the heavy losses. The piles and piles of insect’s body almost reach to the top of the wall.
There were already some insects crawled on top of the wall!
Chu yun sheng has pulled back, the close combat team has taken over the defence position started to engage in melee combat. Few insects that escaped from the close combat were killed by the first range-attack team.
Witch’s healing ability became very useful at the moment. When the dark warriors on the other walls screamed in pain before they died, the place chu yun sheng was staying, only has one person severely injured.
Of course, chu yun sheng’s high-speed shooting also played important role in this defence.
Zhou ye nan who was staying on the side gasped with her mouth wide open. she knew that the fire dark warrior who uses the gun could perform a high-speed attack, but she has never seen someone as fast as chu yun sheng. Not only his speed, he only uses two bullets to kill on red shell insect, not a single bullet more!
Suddenly, the ground starts to shake again, chu yun sheng was already familiar with this kind of feeling:”fuck, golden shell insect! ” he cured. No wonder why the red shell insect did not move earlier. They were probably waiting for golden shell insect.
The golden shell insect was giving Shen Shaoze a headache, three rank three dark warriors had already jumped off the wall and started to fight it outside wall, he could not afford to have golden shell reaches to the wall. Once the wall is broken, the consequence would be Unthinkable.
Now he finally understands why zhu ling die would dare to ask for four shares, is not because of the type i dark energy gun. It is the wind and fire master, although one of the wind and fire master are only evaluated as a rank two dark warrior. but his actual combat skill lives up to his name!
Two people combined with another rank three dark warriors she had, they had already restrained the golden shell’s movement. Wind and fire master were mainly focusing attack the golden shell, and the other rank three dark warrior was just guarding their back to prevent other insect attacks them.
But looking at his side, he had to send out two rank two dark warriors to assist. So in total, he had to deploy five dark warriors to just barely restrain the golden shell’s movement.
With the help from this powerful group, No wonder why zhu ling die is so confident!
But he did not know that, at the moment, zhu ling die’s jealousy for 13th master has almost reached to the top!
Chu yun sheng’s side did not have any golden shell, but there was one thing he felt very strange, those monster could dig all the way into the depot, but they didn't. why did they just dig out at outside the wall?
Maybe they just want to break the wall, so it would be easier for the red shell to attack, chu yun sheng suspected.
Slowly, groups on the southern wall stated to have casualties, two dead and several heavily injured.
Chu yun sheng decided to move to the other side and help other groups to kill the golden shell, if they let that thing get inside the depot, its fire attack would definitely burn the granary down.
The reason why they came here, was because of the food, if they could not protect the food, why the hell they were here for.
Chu yun sheng has all kind of yuan fu, he has not even activated his er pin combat armour yet. The body still has decent amount of yuan qi, so to assist them to kill two golden shell insects is not a big problem
however, Before he moved, he suddenly heard north wall’s group burst into cheers:”fire master! Wind master! Fire master! wind master!!!!”
Zhou yuan was running from the west wall,:”fuck! The golden shell on the east side was finally killed! It was too fucking powerful! Can you spare some people to support the west wall, there was still one more golden shell over there! ” he was out of breath.
chu yun sheng is not very concerned right now, if it is just left one, they could ask that fire and wind master to deal with it. It is better he stay on this side of the wall. if there is one suddenly appears from here, he would be able to kill it on time.
at the end, It left zhou yuan baffled when Zhou ye nan was trying to ask chu yun sheng to help. but chu yun sheng did not move at all. Because he has already made up his mind.
