Chapter 991: Raining Fire Across the Sky (2)

To deal with these thick-skinned, fleshy ogres, perhaps guerrilla tactics could work.

But the elves only have 4 Constitution, with little stamina and energy, unable to sustain guerrilla fighting for long.

It's still best to fight using the defensive towers' terrain advantage.

But now that Zhao Chi was here, she issued no other command, instead ordering: "All units, fire at will, keep 20% energy in reserve, fire!"

"Understood!"

"Rapid fire!" "Rapid fire!"

In an instant, the humming of bowstrings rose in a chorus.

The female elves all used rapid fire, a deluge of arrows pouring forth.

The entire field of vision was filled with arrows, covering half the sky.

Thousands of arrows rose into the air, then fell.

Blanketing all the ogres.

However, these arrows only had an extremely fast attack speed; their power had not increased.

The arrowheads burrowed into the ogres' blue skin and stopped.

That thick layer of fat was truly an excellent defensive layer.

It wasn't that the fat's defense was good, but that the fat was too soft, able to disperse the arrow's force to the surrounding area, which greatly reduced arrow damage.

Arrows continued to be fired.

Every ogre had a dozen or so arrows stuck in it, but only a trickle of fresh blood flowed out.

With so many arrows' worth of power, it still wasn't as strong as that single empowered shot from earlier.

Only the female hero Li Zhu's fired Power Shots could steadily deal heavy damage; she had already killed 4, but this was just a drop in the bucket.

The elves continued shooting, stamina and energy draining in great quantities.

Yet fewer than 40 ogres had died in total.

They howled as they charged, their footsteps drawing closer and closer.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Still 40 meters away.

At this distance, the ogres' tall, fat, sturdy build truly gave everyone an intuitive sense of them.

The female soldiers gripped their weapons tightly, awaiting the combat order.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The 30-meter mark had been reached.

"All units, attention, shields up, advance!"

Tang Ruan's clear voice was calm and decisive.

Clack! Clack! Clack! Clack!

The 70 female spearmen were all Tier-1 militia.

But they showed no fear, marching in step through the elven formation, closing on the ogres step by step.

"Let's go, we're joining in too!"

Qi Yue raised her blade and charged out from the right with 40 saber troops.

"Sisters, follow me!"

Zhuang Ya led another 40 female saber troops, closing in from the left.

Tang Ruan's eyes went wide: "Ogres, this way!"

Purple light surged forth.

All nearby ogres became extremely enraged.

They howled wildly with gaping mouths, saliva spraying everywhere.

They all charged at Tang Ruan with ferocious expressions.

But Tang Ruan merely smiled lightly: "Everyone, prepare formation tactics, countdown 5 seconds, 3 seconds, 1 second, thrust!!"

"Thrust!" "Thrust!"

"Thrust!" "Thrust!"

All 70 female spearmen activated in unison.

They became like a wall of thorns, crashing straight into the ogre horde ahead.

Psh psh psh psh psh psh!

A great many sounds of meat being pierced rang out.

Iron spears pierced through the fat bellies, churning about inside the ogres' abdomens.

"Aaa—ooo—!"

"Aooo aooo!!"

The ogres endured the pain and counterattacked, their fists like twin hammers crashing down heavily.

Bang bang bang bang bang!

The female spearmen were hammered back, gaps smashed into the formation.

The ogres' fist attacks were very strong, and carried armor-piercing impact force.

The female soldiers all suffered internal injuries, even broken bones.

Gu Qing and Li Qi raised their hands at the same time; healing light descended in time, instantly curing them.

Gu Qing smiled: "Thanks."

Li Qi shook her head: "It's only right."
