Fang Yuan couldn't help but think for a moment after the old man's words;
Just when he was about to ask something more, the whole hall suddenly started to tremble, and then there were rumbling sounds one after another. The sound came from far to near, as if something huge was rushing towards the village.
The expressions of everyone in the hall changed. They no longer cared about Fang Yuan. They stood up and rushed out with a low drink.
"No, there's something wrong!"
Fang Yuan and An Ruoxian were also confused and followed those people out out of curiosity.
Outside the hall, the village elders were solemnly directing hundreds of young men and women to rush up the thick stone wall, holding various swords, axes and halberds and some crudely made bows and arrows in their hands.
These people's faces were extremely nervous, but all actions were indeed orderly and without a trace of panic. It seemed that they had dealt with this situation many times before, and everything was done step by step.
Fang Yuan and An Ruoxian were both curious and turned to look in the direction of the sound. However, they saw nothing because of the high stone wall. They only felt an increasingly alarming tremor coming from the ground.
Fang Yuan touched his chin and looked around for a moment, then sprinted a few steps to tiptoe, using the higher part of the wall stack, he easily climbed to the top of the simple shed on the stone wall, and looked out from a higher position.
Standing high and looking far away, standing on the shed, Fang Yuan was finally able to see the situation in the distance.
A little further outside the village, flying sand and rocks were blown by the wild wind, blowing up waves of black mist. The mist was so thick that it was difficult to see anything at all. Wherever the mist passed, everything in sight lost its luster.
Seeing such phenomena, Fang Yuan remembered the exterminating demonic energy mentioned by the strong man.
Seeing these exterminating demonic energies, Fang Yuan couldn't help but feel worried, but these demonic auras dissipated on their own dozens of feet away from the village, and were unable to cross the low wall.
The black mist stopped impacting, and there was a series of sounds of heavy objects falling to the ground. Although they were far apart, the astonishing momentum was still faintly revealed, making people's hearts beat involuntarily.
After a moment, a huge black shadow more than ten feet tall rushed out of the black mist.
Only then did everyone see clearly what this black shadow looked like.
The black shadow seems to be a black giant bear that has been enlarged more than ten times. It is said to be a bear, but this beast has four eyes on its face, and a pair of fleshy wings on its back. It is also carrying a mace-like weapon in one hand. wood.
The black bear stood still, roared loudly, and then charged towards the village. At the same time, its four strange eyes glowed red, filled with a violent killing aura.
Seeing the giant beast charging violently, bursts of shouts rang out from the stone wall,
"It's a violent beast. Hurry up and put up thick earth shields from behind to resist."
After the loud voice fell, a large number of women, children, and gray-haired old men emerged from behind the village, all carrying heavy earth-yellow shields in their hands.
These people quickly ran to the stone wall, handed the shields to the people on the wall, and then ran down the stone wall in a panic.
After some maneuvers, the giant beast was less than a hundred feet away from the stone wall.
"Bang bang bang~~"
The sound of the violent beast's feet landing was so shocking that Fang Yuan felt that a section of this seemingly solid stone wall might have collapsed before the beast came close. Fortunately, this did not happen. happened, the stone wall remained impregnable.
The violent beast rushed to a distance of thirty feet in the blink of an eye.
At this moment, several huge tentacles made of white thick fog suddenly appeared on the nearby ground, and they tied the feet of the violent beast tightly. These tentacles were like octopuses, constantly entangled towards the violent beast. go.
The Violent Beast's legs were entangled, and it couldn't stand firmly and fell hard in front of the stone wall. The huge body of the Violent Beast fell to the ground, causing everyone on the stone wall to stagger and almost lose their balance.
Fang Yuan's feet were also shaken and he quickly jumped down from the roof;
When he turned his head, his eyes were shocked to find that there were four people sitting cross-legged on the high platform in the center of the village. The four people were covered in a faint white light and their hands were dancing, as if they were casting spells.
Seeing those white lights, Fang Yuan's heart moved!
"Is this the dark source of energy they call?"
Almost at the same time, someone on the stone wall issued an order.
"All attack! Stop the violent beast from destroying the wall."
Under the command, countless densely packed spears and arrows were shot at the violent beast lying on the ground in front of him like raindrops in an instant, completely covering it in the shadow of swords and lights.
Furious seemed to know that the danger was approaching, and he roared, blowing out a stream of cold wind from his mouth.
The arrows flying in the face lost their accuracy as soon as the wind blew them. The arrows were instantly covered with a layer of crystal black ice. They fell to the ground without touching the body of the violent beast.
As for the heavier spears and the like, although they pierced the huge body of the violent beast, their lethality was greatly reduced by the strong wind. They only barely caused some skin injuries, but stimulated the beast to become even more violent.
Under the rage of the violent beast, its eyes suddenly flashed with blood. After a "swishing" sound, the hair on its neck actually stood up one by one, like steel needles, which looked terrible. Extremely scary.
I saw the violent beast's head lowered, and the steel needle hairs that stood up instantly turned into countless silver rays, shooting towards the stone wall.
"Thick Earth Shield Defense!"
Everyone on the wall seemed to have known that the violent beast had this method. Although their faces were nervous, they still raised their big shields neatly.
The steel needle arrived in an instant and violently hit the thick earth shield.
The sound of "crack, crackle, crackle" came from the shield like a shower.
The steel needle was very hard. Even though the earth shield was very thick, it still penetrated the shield several inches deep. However, it failed to penetrate the shield and most of the steel needles were blocked by the shield.
However, there were also some people who lacked protection and were directly penetrated by the steel needle, and were immediately knocked off the stone wall by the strong momentum.
"Continue the attack!"
Others had no time to care about the life and death of these people, and under the loud command of one person, another batch of spears and arrows were shot out in large pieces, but most of them were also blown away by the sinister wind from the violent beast. Fortunately, some of them were still stuck on the violent beast. .
The violent beast seemed to only have a piece of hard hair on its neck, which could be used as a long-range attack weapon. It screamed when it was stabbed by arrows and spears, but it just struggled desperately to get up and had no other means of counterattack.
But the tentacles transformed by the white light firmly trapped its feet, making it impossible to move.
After repeating the long-range attacks five or six times in a row, the evil wind in the violent beast's mouth finally weakened and was no longer as powerful as before.
However, the number of bows, arrows and spears on the stone wall suddenly increased. After a series of attacks, the violent beast was densely covered with arrows and spears, like a hedgehog.
Despite this, the beast did not seem to be fatally injured and continued to roar violently. The huge wooden mace in its hand kept waving, smashing the ground nearby.
Fang Yuan couldn't help but marvel at the violent beast's thick skin and powerful strength.
The people in the village seemed to have dealt with the violent beasts more than once and twice, and they were quite successful.
After one person gave the order, a group of strong and physically strong men quickly ran up the stone wall.
They carried no weapons except several giant spears of three to four feet long under their ribs. As soon as these people climbed onto the wall, they immediately raised their spears, made a few gestures, and pointed them at the huge beast. The body was thrown hard.
"Whoosh~~"
The spear was shot out, and there was a sound of piercing the air, which made Fang Yuan couldn't help but admire him.
"What a strong arm strength!"
