Under Gu Xi's order, Ethan quickly led his troops out of the steel city gate.
Unlike other heroes, the troops brought by Ethan are all siege weapons.
In addition to conventional catapults and ballistae, there are also heavy weapons such as shield carts and crash carts.
It is precisely for this reason that Ethan's movement speed will be slower.
Although Ethan had been on the road after receiving Gu Xi's order, it took him some time to reach Gu Xi.
As soon as he came to Gu Xi, Ethan asked: "Sir, what do you need me to do?"
Gu Xi gestured toward the woods: "If you see those arrow towers, pull them out without burning down the woods."
Hearing Gu Xi's request, Ethan looked into the woods.
“No wonder, the wood here is all good material, and it would be a waste if it were all burned.”
As the most important siege master under Gu Xi, Ethan is quite proficient in the research of siege weapons.
He could tell the condition of the trees in front of him at a glance.
Then Ethan dipped his thumb in saliva and compared it in front of him to feel the wind speed and direction.
"Okay, the current wind direction is in our favor. Even if I throw a fire bomb directly, I can control the burning of the flames. There is no problem."
As Ethan spoke, he asked someone to launch the catapult.
The catapult launched by Ethan is considered a new product from the arsenal. The current catapult has been upgraded from a general-purpose model to an undead-specific model.
The catapult has begun to incorporate the marks of the undead.
Just like the catapult in front of me, the body is made of wood, but several skeletons are integrated into the body. At the same time, the catapult part is also strengthened by means such as the bones of the undead.
Today's sling arms are light and strong, much better than thick and heavy wood.
The current catapult is obviously lighter and the stones can be thrown further.
After arranging twenty catapults in a row, Ethan first checked the position of the nearest arrow tower.
"Can."
Gu Xi didn't say much, it was better for Ethan to direct this kind of thing.
“Angle 37, left deflection 26, height 17, ready for the first round of test firing, release!”
At Ethan's order, ten fire bombs flew towards the arrow tower at the front.
As soon as the arrow tower hunters saw this arrow tower, they started to defend themselves immediately.
When the fireball flew up, he opened his bow and struck the fireball.
Gu Xi could clearly see that the arrows shot by the undead hunter from the arrow tower contained a heavy chill.
When the cold air hit the fireball, the fireball was extinguished directly.
But Ethan's catapults were ten, not one.
Although the Arrow Tower Hunter extinguished one fireball, there were still nine fireballs flying behind.
At this time, another circle of defensive cover appeared on the arrow tower, blocking three fireballs.
In the end, only six fireballs hit the arrow tower and caused an explosion.
Looking at the direction of the explosion, Ethan shook his head.
“Such a strong defense, how did they do it?”
Gu Xi is not too sure about the situation of the arrow tower hunters.
He could only ask: "How is it? Can it be beaten?"
"Of course it can be defeated by attacking, but it will consume a lot of money. If this kind of attack is repeated for two more rounds, the arrow tower will fall down."
Hearing Ethan's words, Gu Xi's face became solemn.
This is just an arrow tower, and it will take ten catapults to attack in three rounds.
There are seven arrow towers here. How long will it take to fight? The most important thing is that there are not many of these arrow tower hunters in Black Ji City. How are we going to fight them next?
“Is there any other way to remove this thing?”
“Sir, what I learned is to attack the city and solve the situation at hand. I'm really not very professional. I need to find professional people to do this.”
Professional manpower?
There is no one better than the deceased himself.
Upon hearing this, Gu Xi said decisively: "Okay, let's knock down the one in front of us first."
"good!"
As soon as Ethan heard this, he mobilized again. This time he called in twenty catapults.
He raised his right hand and pointed at the arrow tower in front of him.
“Angle 37, left 26 feet away..., prepare for three rounds of continuous fire, release the second batch three seconds after the first batch..."
At Ethan's order, all the catapults were ready.
The Arrow Tower also noticed this situation.
The arrow tower hunters on the arrow tower are not just waiting to be killed.
He immediately changed an arrow and raised it towards the sky.
Gu Xi found that the top of the arrow tower seemed to be opened at this time, and something was rising inside.
“No, prepare to defend.”
Gu Xi ordered decisively.
But how could Gu Xi defend himself against the situation in front of him?
He himself could just step back.
But all of Ethan's catapults are here.
Now that the calibration of the catapult has been completed, it is too late to move it to another position.
Ethan simply gritted his teeth and said, "Let it go!"
The first ten catapults threw fireballs instantly. Three seconds later, the second wave of catapults launched, and three seconds after that, the third wave of catapults... Before the third wave of catapults had time to launch, they encountered an attack from the arrow tower.
The arrow tower hunter on top of the arrow tower fired a guide arrow toward the catapult when the arrow tower opened. This guide arrow guided a huge crossbow arrow that flew out of the arrow tower to fly outward.
The tips of the arrows of this kind of crossbow are blazing red. When flying outward, the air becomes much hotter.
Gu Xi felt something was wrong and immediately stepped aside.
Then there was the sound of a big explosion.
Thirty catapults were half destroyed and the rest were also affected.
But fortunately, before the red crossbow arrows fell, the first two waves of catapults had also completed two rounds of projection.
The stone turned into a fireball and hit the arrow tower heavily, causing a violent explosion.
The entire arrow tower was blown up directly.
Looking at the performance in front of him, Gu Xi couldn't help but sigh.
This arrow tower hunter is too perverted.
With such a range and such attack power, how would a normal person fight?
Even if the arrow tower hunter can only stay on the arrow tower and cannot move, it is not something that normal people can take down.
Thinking of this, Gu Xi couldn't help but look at Ethan.
When he saw it, Ethan said decisively: "Sir, please rest assured that I was not prepared this time. When I prepare everything, this kind of thing will not happen again."
“Okay, come and prepare, pull out the remaining arrow towers for me.
Don't go into the woods yourself. After pulling out the arrow tower, let Garis and his troops go into the woods to explore the way.
After making sure there is no problem, shovel this forest for me. "
