Chapter 245 Trying to Hide?
Chapter 245 Trying to Hide?
Whizzing--
"here we go again!"
"Back off!"
At the corner of the stairs leading from the first to the second floor of the main building, a wandering soldier had just peeked down when he was forced back by two flying crossbow bolts.
The wandering soldier behind him had just taken a step forward when he pushed him back again.
This is the third time!
The wandering soldiers behind him began to get restless.
"Go ahead and shoot!"
"Shoot it out and leave!"
The wandering soldier at the front also became agitated.
"You guys go! I'll go up!"
It wasn't these guys facing the crossbow bolts!
They were the ones shouting the loudest!
The staircase is only wide enough for one person to peek out and shoot. If two people want to stand together, one of them has to lean against the wall so that the other can make their move.
But this doesn't affect the goblins.
At the bottom of the stairs, the first, second, and third rows of goblins began to nock their crossbows, while the fourth row of goblins raised their crossbows and aimed them at the corner.
This place has become a battlefield where crossbowmen engage in passionate gunfights.
Or rather, it's a battlefield between eight goblins and the wandering soldiers upstairs.
Under Li Mosi's plan, Zi Yi selected the eight strongest and fastest goblins and divided them into two groups.
They were divided into four rows.
After the first rank fired, they crouched down and cocked their crossbows, while the next rank raised their crossbows to aim.
With Li Mosi around, there's no need for prediction.
Seeing that the soldiers on the stairs were about to stick their heads out, he immediately ordered them to be suppressed, which prevented the other side from even extending their weapons.
The goblins were initially a little worried, but now they're addicted to shooting.
The goblin, crouching down and raising its crouching arm, grinned so hard its teeth were showing.
"Hehehe, this thing is really powerful."
"It's finally my turn!"
"hey-hey."
"Why aren't those humans peeking out?"
The staircase was not wide enough for two adults to work side by side.
If you encounter someone as tall as Zi'an, there's only room for one person to pass through.
You can call two goblins to fight side by side without affecting their agility.
"I can't get out! You all go ahead!"
Why did you run away?
"waste!"
A string of curses came from the stairs.
The wandering soldiers, who had never tried it before, were naturally unwilling to give up and immediately raised their crossbows to fire.
"As long as I'm fast enough—"
"attack!"
Whizzing--
A fresh corpse fell around the corner, and an unfired crossbow slid down the brick steps to the goblin.
"Wow! Finally dead!"
"I was the first to hit the target!"
The goblins in the fourth row cheered and began to nock their crossbows, while the goblins in the first row, having already nocked their crossbows and loaded their arrows, raised their crossbows with some regret and aimed at the stairwell.
"It almost became mine."
"What a pity!"
The goblin's voice wasn't quiet, but it wasn't as loud as the wandering soldier upstairs.
"Kachi is dead!"
"Can't shoot!"
"What's wrong with shooting him! Let me kick his corpse down!"
One defeat cannot extinguish the fighting spirit of a wandering soldier.
Not to mention they have no way out now!
Ziyi, Zian, and the Holy Maiden, who were downstairs, both felt a little strange when they heard this.
They've already fought like this, and they still won't defend properly?
Li Mosi knew immediately that the guy with the amazing skills was about to make his appearance.
Sure enough, a beam of light that was originally at the top of the stairs descended, passed through the other lights, and was about to leap out of the cover.
Li Moss raised his hand, and the goblins prepared.
He jumped up when he saw the light!
He raised the crossbow.
"attack!"
A rogue soldier, stronger than most soldiers, appeared before the goblin's eyes.
He held a crossbow in one hand, a small shield in the other, and extended his foot at the same time.
"Just kick it down and stop it..."
whoosh-
The God of War leaps.
The God of War is sleeping.
Li Mosi's crossbow bolt blew his head off.
Now, there's cover around the corner that allows goblins to crouch down.
Using the two corpses as cover, the goblins, under Zi Yi's orders, pressed their way to the corner.
The soldiers had no choice but to retreat to the second floor.
A new round of confrontation has begun.
This time, no soldier dared to jump out again.
Li Mosi took the opportunity to observe the structure of the main building.
The main building is quite tall.
Although this territory isn't great, no one dares to cut corners when building the fortress.
The main building is about 10 meters long and wide, and about 30 meters high. It has six floors including the top floor, and the exterior walls are all made of stone bricks.
The thickest part of the stone brick exterior wall is two meters high.
Even without the exterior walls, the main building is still quite spacious.
It is at least several times larger than an ordinary person's house.
A single, thick oak pillar serves as a support, helping this massive main building stand firmly on the ground.
Narrow stone steps extend upwards along the inside of the brick wall to the second floor, and then turn into wooden steps, with thick wooden planks separating the sides of all the steps.
Looking at the cross-sectional diagram, Li Mosi noticed something was wrong.
He had initially thought it was just that the wooden planks were thick.
There was another wooden step on the inside?
"Where are the adults?"
"have no idea!"
"Damn it, quickly push the table to the bottom of the stairs to block it!"
Upon hearing the voice from above, Li Mosi glanced at the positions of the thirty-odd soldiers.
They've all left the stairwell!
good chance!
"Ziyi, quickly tell the goblins to maintain their pressure and advance."
"good!"
Zi Yi quickly gave the order, and the goblins immediately carried it out.
With [Leshan Shui] around, Li Mosi can seize every weakness of the enemy.
The wandering soldiers tried to block the passage with long tables, which made it impossible for them to maintain aim.
So the table they pushed over became a cover for the goblins.
So the table they pushed over became a cover for the goblins.
The wandering soldiers could only use other small pieces of furniture to make cover and try to shoot at each other again.
However, there's no passion to speak of this time.
Knowing the goblins' fighting prowess, no one dared to show themselves anymore.
The crossbow bolts fired by goblins were blocked by furniture and were basically harmless.
Then Zi'an squeezed his way up with his longbow.
Her bow can pierce armor!
Whoosh—snap!
The arrow produced a sonic boom, smashing the furniture and cover to pieces!
And I also managed to get a kill.
The goblins followed up with a volley of fire, and five more heads were taken.
"Run!"
"I'd rather guard the stairs!"
"Don't stop me!"
Although the wandering soldiers' crossbows were already cocked, everyone was fleeing for their lives, and no one dared to risk death by raising them.
Thanks to their large numbers, goblin warriors can use their companions' crossbow bolts when they run out.
In addition, there's more than enough looted from the corpses—more than we can use, absolutely not enough!
From this point on, the wandering soldiers completely lost the opportunity to exchange fire.
Because the steps beneath their feet had been changed from stone bricks to wooden planks!
Koyasu's longbow can be broken!
After the first guy fell to his death, the wandering soldiers could only retreat, without even a chance to fight back.
They quickly made their way to the top floor.
There's no more cover here.
Li Moss shouted, "Surrender and you will not be killed!"
Zi'an also shouted loudly.
"Drop your weapons and you won't be killed!"
There was no response from upstairs.
Snapped!
A crossbow was thrown at the bottom of the stairs.
"What are you doing, Zeke!"
"I don't want to die! Do we really have to die in battle?!"
"That's right! There was absolutely no fighting in the outer and middle layers!"
"I've had enough of you, you fighting idiot!"
Li Mosi listened to the commotion above, looked at Zi Yi in front of him, then at Zi An behind him, and then at Haji Sheng behind him.
Just as the group was wondering what was going on, screams rang out from above.
"what!"
"What are you doing!"
"I want to live!"
Amidst a commotion accompanied by screams, about twenty crossbows were thrown one by one onto the stairwell.
"My lord, please let us live."
Under Zi Yi's command, the goblin warriors cautiously carried their crossbows up to the roof.
They tied up a dozen or so surviving, wandering soldiers.
Looking down from the battlements, Zi Yi had a clear view of the entire fortress.
He felt something was off.
"Looks like there aren't any guys dressed like managers?"
Li Mosi pointed to the ground beneath her feet.
"They're hiding."
With him around, do these guys still think they can hide?
