Chapter 75 Aren’t bombs much easier to use than swords?
At this time, the water ghosts, who had been hungry all day, were not very clear-headed. They still gathered at the place where cattle and sheep fell from the sky two days ago, but there was no dancing today.
"Bang bang" "bang bang" "bang bang" six silent sounds of landing, blood and flesh splashing, and the water ghosts swarmed up.
There was something wrong with today's food, but they didn't eat it. After all, water ghosts are idiots who would put the horns of sheep and cows into their mouths and chew them twice.
Some water ghosts dug into the stomachs of cattle and sheep, took out leaves and hay, stuffed them into their mouths, chewed them twice, and spit them out; some were lucky enough to find an alchemy bomb just like eating dumplings during the New Year and biting coins, and they were scratched after taking two bites. He opened his mouth, screamed and threw it away.
The gas of [Dragon Dream] gradually spread, and the fuel of [Dancing Heart] flowed from the corners of the mouths of some water ghosts. None of them exploded, and the alchemical bombs of this era were still in a condition that required fuses to ignite.
If you want to see fireworks, you first need a spark.
What kind of things are suitable for sparks?
[Honeycomb Bomb] is very good.
A clay pot stained with fuse was finally thrown from the cliff. The demon hunter had calculated the time for the soldiers in advance. When the bomb fell to the ground, the fuse would burn out.
A water ghost saw something falling from the sky and opened his mouth to catch it.
Lan, who was lying in ambush below, hurriedly lowered his head and blocked his ears when he saw the thrown honeycomb.
"Boom."
This was the sound of a honeycomb explosion. The scattered fragments cut off half of the head of the open-mouthed water ghost, and scattered sparks flew everywhere. Honeycomb Bombs only do a small amount of fire damage, but it's enough.
Immediately afterwards -
"Boom!" "Boom!!" "Boom!!!"
A series of explosions sounded one after another, as if a hundred-foot-tall giant was raging and roaring here, and the violent flames and shock waves turned into a storm. Sitting in all the areas under the cliff, all the water ghosts gathering here were enveloped before they could react.
The water ghost in the center was blown to pieces before he could react. The ones outside were swept away by the flames in two or three waves, with less than half of their bodies being charred. Only the thinnest and slowest water ghosts were "only" "The whole body was on fire, and they were running around squeaking. They were almost half-burnt before they even thought of running back into the river to put out the fire.
Lan En, who was lying in ambush, could feel the huge heat flow. He peeked towards the explosion point and saw three or four water ghosts covered in flames falling from the sky. Like fireworks, they drew bright tracks in the air and crashed into the water. . These ones were blown away.
He glanced towards the center of the field and saw that less than ten water ghosts were still standing.
He glanced at the system's experience column and saw no improvement.
Lan's eyes turned red instantly: "Charge!"
This was no ordinary human soldier, but a monster!
Swade's eyes were also red: "Your Majesty Earl!! Charge!!!"
The druid on the cliff looked at the two soldiers who were left here and were sweating coldly. His face was full of admiration: "The nobles of Sintra... are all like this. Are you brave?"
But this time it was not Lan who was at the forefront. Geralt had already blocked the water ghosts who were trying to enter the river to put out the fire.
At this moment, Geralt faced two enemies at the same time. The hot and painful water ghost was extremely fierce, but the witcher was not afraid at all. He made a mysterious gesture with his left hand, and a hot fire spurted out from the palm of his hand in a fan shape!
[Seal of Igni]: A fire attack that directly damages the enemy.
The water ghost was most restrained by the flames. After seeing Geralt, the water ghost jumped up in the air and swung his claws to tear him apart. Unexpectedly, he ran headlong into his own death door.
The flames collapsed, and the water ghost, who had already lost half of his life in the big explosion, died in mid-air before landing, and was swept back by the impact of the flames like a puddle of mud.
On the other side, three water ghosts rushed towards Lan with their backs full of flames. This scene reminded Lan of something called the "Fire Bull Formation" in a war game in his previous life.
The difference is that this "cow" is a little smaller, a little thinner, and a little too "hot".
Lan stepped forward with his left foot, taking advantage of the hardness of the armor to directly fit into the group of water ghosts. Then he pushed his right foot on the ground and twisted his waist to exert force. He swung the long sword and began to spin.
[Spiral Sword Dance·Pseudo]
During the spinning process, he repeatedly used steps and adjusted the way he held the sword to adapt to his changing center of gravity.
First lap. He used the tip of his sword as a pen to draw a circle that was flush with his chest.
The bodies of two of the three water ghosts, which had been crispy by the flames, were chopped into two sections by Lan like firewood.
Second lap. Adjust the center of gravity and change the trajectory of the sword.
The sword light flashed again in the air, and Lan split the last missing water ghost in half with a diagonal slash from the lower left to the upper right.
The third lap. There is no goal anymore. This is simply a matter of losing control of the inertia.
After turning around in a circle to stabilize his body, Lan had no enemies in front of him.
It's so easy, almost like bullying a child.
Under the cliff, the heavily armed soldiers had already approached the struggling water ghosts, but they were more rational. They took out their crossbows and longbows and fired a volley, then slashed with their swords when they encountered anyone with a protruding face in the gap. The severely injured water ghosts had long lost their jumping speed that most threatened humans, and were slaughtered to the point where they were almost defenseless.
This several-day tactic only took a dozen breaths from the beginning to the end. Lann and the others rushed out as if they were cleaning up the battlefield.
The soldiers carefully used their spears to touch up the water ghosts on the ground one by one. After checking, Sward reported to Lan: "Most of them are here, your lord. It's just that I just saw a few bombed." They flew away, I don’t know..."
Geralt suddenly interrupted: "They are not in trouble."
The witcher pointed at the river, and three burnt black corpses floated out of the water with their backs upward, like pieces of burnt wood. .
"Three of them were blown up in total, and there are a lot of them here. They are all together."
Lann was in a good mood. If it were in the game, there might be a prompt to destroy the monster's lair this time. Unfortunately, the actual system does not seem to have this function.
Lann called the few people who were staying on the cliff to come down. The druid praised Lann:
"This is the first time I have seen a noble leader like you who takes the lead, and it is also the first time I have seen such creative tactics. ."
Geralt said from the side: "In order to kill these dozens of water ghosts, you may have to kill dozens of griffons to earn back the money spent." After the
battle, it is naturally time to harvest the spoils, but facing the water ghosts Their charred corpses, no one thought of skinning them for meat. The soldiers wearing armor helped each other start to remove their armor and prepare for diving exploration.
Geralt took out a short knife on the side, took out several bottles and jars from his alchemy backpack strap, and began to carefully dissect the prey.
I found that the data would be very poor every Saturday, and then the data would rise again on Sunday to make up for the deficit on Saturday haha.
Then theoretically the data will drop again tomorrow...
