588 The Kobolds’ Skeleton
The most terrifying thing is that the Human race had too many crossbow arrows. The destructive power of these cannon-like attacks is too terrifying. It’s hard to even get close to them. They have to sacrifice the warriors.
The foreign races nearby were all frightened. Seeing the dense arrow rain, they felt their scalps go numb and shiver. This rain of arrows was unstoppable. Many of the foreign races had discovered that the Human race’s Purgatory Divine Crossbows were much more powerful than the ones they had bought.
This discovery made the foreign races feel indignant, but they could understand.
No one would sell a weapon that could hurt oneself. Even if the appearance looked the same, the effect would be different.
If it were them, they would also not hand over the killing weapon in their hands to others.
!!
The Human race seemed to have developed an even more powerful Purgatory Divine Crossbow long ago, which was why they had sold the outdated weapons to them.
The understanding was now another story since they were paying more attention to the Human race’s strength.
The rain of arrows was sharp and overbearing.
However, the Kobolds were also experienced in battle. Although they were dazed by the rain of arrows at the beginning and suffered huge causalities, they immediately thought of a solution. One of the Kobolds grabbed the corpse of a comrade in its hand as a flesh shield to quickly move forward and block the explosive arrows. Even if a crossbow arrow passed through the corpse and landed on its body, it would not easily cause fatal damage.
This action immediately spurred all the Kobolds to do the same.
The Kobolds didn’t feel any burden in their hearts when they used their comrades’ corpses as shields. On the contrary, they looked very used to this.
They believed that their comrades would agree even if they were still alive.
Even the other comrades used their bodies as shields when they died, they would go without any objection. It would be great if they could make a contribution.
This action instantly reduced the number of Kobolds’ casualties under the rain of arrows.
“Projectile!” Zhao Yun squinted his eyes and gave another order.
Since a direct attack could no longer produce enough damage, then they would have to change to another attack method.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh…
The crossbow arrows shot into the sky. After rising to a certain height, they immediately drew perfect arcs in the air and fell. At that moment, it was like a dense rain of arrows falling from the sky.
“Ah…”
“They shoot arrows like this! Oh no, run!”
The parabolic curve of the arrow that was shot out was even more unpredictable due to the wind. In archery, the projectile was the most difficult skill to master. To shoot into the air and accurately hit the target was extraordinarily difficult.
However, there was no need to aim at the densely-packed Kobolds. When the arrows were shot, seven or eight out of ten would hit the target.
This projectile was extremely intimidating.
The most important thing was that these arrows came from the sky. That kind of deterrence seemed to be a punishment from the heavens, and it was impossible to guard against.
It was always harder to defend against attacks from the sky. During the process of charging, it was difficult to pay attention to the changes above their heads.
The crossbow arrows continued to fall, either piercing through the chest or directly through the head.
These arrows were like nails. As they fell from the sky, they could nail the Kobolds to the ground.
In an instant, the Kobolds suffered heavy casualties.
“What a powerful arrow array! However, it’s impossible to stop the army of our Kobolds with just an arrow formation.”
Gou Xiaotian’s eyes were ice-cold, and it did not waver in the slightest.
Without any hesitation, it held the blood-red sickle and looked at the gathered Kobolds. It shouted, “Fellows, let the world know today that we, the Kobolds, are not afraid of any slaughter or enemies. Any enemy who stands in front of us will only have one end, which is death!”
“Kill! Kill! Kill!”
When the surrounding Kobolds heard this, they all revealed a fanatical expression and opened their mouths to let out a series of shouts.
“Charge!”
Gou Xiaotian waved its sickle and let out a shout. He took the lead and charged forward with its sickle in hand.
As soon as it moved, a large number of Kobolds came from all directions like a tide.
Rumble!
As intense rumbles sounded, countless Kobold armies attacked!
There were no less than 200,000 troops swept over. Their aura was so strong that it made people feel as if a mountain was pressing down.
However, in the eyes of the warriors of the Kingdom of Dawn, such a large-scale attack was just a normal scene.
“They’ve finally made their move. The Kobolds are really enraged this time. Even the fellow, Gou Xiaotian, has come forward. With such a large number of enemies, no matter how strong the arrow array is, they will be killed.”
“This moment has finally come. This is the moment that will truly determine victory and defeat. It’s impossible for an army of twenty thousand to resist an enemy ten times their number in the wilderness.”
“Great! Let’s see what else the humans have up their sleeves. It’s not that easy to defeat a stronger opponent. Moreover, the Kobolds are not to be trifled with. They have many trump cards in their hands. There will be a good show this time.”
Although Li Xiang had displayed the strength of a powerful army and their archery skills had killed a large number of Kobolds, not many people were optimistic about the human side. The gap in numbers was difficult to make up for.
The difference was too great.
“It’s finally making a move! It’s a good opportunity to bury these Kobolds in this valley.”
Li Xiang also saw Gou Xiaotian joining the battle, and a cold killing intent rose in his heart.
“Everyone, get ready. Listen to my orders and set up the Eight Trigrams Demon Array.
Zhao Yun took a deep breath and said.
“General, please rest assured.”
Zhao Sheng said confidently.
The Human warriors didn’t feel any pressure when it came to setting up the array. They had practiced the Eight Trigrams Demon Array countless times.
“Eh?”
At this moment, Li Xiang’s eyes revealed a touch of seriousness.
Upon closer inspection, one could see that the moment Gou Xiaotian stepped onto the battlefield, he had suddenly brandished the sickle in his hand, and an invisible force had swept out in all directions.
Click!
In the blink of an eye, a rather terrifying scene appeared.
The Kobold corpses on the ground started to go through terrifying changes. The bodies on the ground exploded with blood and flesh. Following that, one after another, hideous skeletons stood up from the blood and flesh. They held swords in their hands, exuding a cold aura, and their empty eye sockets flickered with a cold glint.
They were Kobold Skeleton Warriors.
The undead, skeleton soldiers!
