Magic Industry Empire - 451. Chapter 451 Flame Magic Arrow
Xu Yi jumped up instantly, opened the tent and rushed out.
At this time, there were waves of horseshoe trampling on the ground in the wilderness to the northwest, which passed through the camp, awakening all the people who had fallen asleep in the camp.
The guards who were originally scheduled to take a shift in the first half of the night showed the results of their usual training. They reacted immediately, put on a full set of equipment, gathered, and quickly deployed a defensive formation on the periphery of the camp.
Hart’s loud call sounded outside the camp. After a while, he ran in, bowed to Xu Yi, and said in a deep voice: “My lord, there is an enemy sneak attack.”
Seeing that there was no panic on Hart’s face, Xu Yi nodded and asked: “You are responsible for the defense work, and I will not intervene. If you need me to take action, you can tell me.”
Hart glanced at Xu Yi somewhat unexpectedly, and then remembered that this guild leader is actually a senior magician.
In this kind of caravan guard, if there is one more senior magician, it will greatly increase the combat power of the entire guard.
Just because of the identity of President Xu Yi, Hart always subconsciously ignores the possibility of Xu Yi personally playing, making him always forget the identity of Xu Yi as a magician.
After hesitating for a while, Hart said sternly: “In this case, the president, I hope you will be ready to participate in the war at any time.”
Seeing Hart’s back after he turned and left, Xu Yi frowned slightly.
Hart did not refuse to allow himself to participate in the war, which proves that the situation may not be optimistic.
“President, is there an enemy sneak attack?” Camby’s voice sounded behind Xu Yi. “Who dares to attack our new flying business association, wanting to die?”
Xu Yi looked back, only to find that Camby and the dwarves in the team did not show the slightest fear in their expressions. Instead, they all looked excited and expected and couldn’t help but laugh.
These dwarves really deserve to be called “combat races” by all races on the Sainz continent.
However, these dwarves are all mechanical engineers from the Magic Machine Tool R&D Center of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. They can be regarded as the baby bumps of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. Even if Xu Yi believes that their combat effectiveness is very strong, they dare not easily let them take risks on the battlefield.
After pondering for a while, Xu Yi stopped Camby and the others who were eager to try, and let them stay in the camp to take care of the other incompetent staff in the convoy, and then stepped out of the camp.
Although time was tight when setting up the camp, Hart and other guards built a small fortification based on the outer magic locomotive. At this time, they were gathering behind this simple fortification, staring intently at the direction of the sound of horseshoes. .
“How’s the situation?” Xu Yi touched it and looked in the direction of the sound of horseshoes, but he could only see the darkness and nothing.
“I’m afraid the situation is not so good.” Unlike the first notification to Xu Yishi just now, Hart’s face now became more solemn. “The three guards who patrolled in that direction have not come back until now. I guess they are no better. And judging from the sound of horseshoes, the incoming enemy may have at least more than two hundred riders.”
“Two hundred rides?” Xu Yi frowned deeply. “With so many cavalry, it will definitely not be an ordinary bandit.”
Hart nodded slowly, glanced at Xu Yi, and stopped talking.
Xu Yi patted him on the shoulder: “I’ll talk about it later, let’s deal with this time. Otherwise, whether we can survive or not will be a problem.”
“Yes.”
Hart nodded his head, raised his head and shouted at a tree next to the camp: “Isos, how is the situation?”
There was a rattle of leaves from the top of the tree, and an elf guard jumped down and nodded to Xu Yi, his expression also solemn.
“It’s 400 meters.”
“Very well, enter the firing range, no need to say hello. Everyone, bow and arrow ready!”
Hart gave an order, and all the guards touched by his side, and everyone picked up a magic crossbow.
“put!”
Hart’s right hand fell heavily, and Xu Yi suddenly heard a rustling feather arrow breaking through the air.
After a while, countless feather arrows pierced the night, and there was a scream of screams and the dull sound of people falling on the ground.
The magic continuous crossbow equipped by Xu Yi for the guards of the new flying business association is a new version of the magic continuous crossbow that has been improved on the basis of the magic continuous crossbow provided to the new flying business association at the beginning of the year. The number of arrows is also more. At the same time, the number of arrows that can be shot out is nearly 30% more than the previous magic continuous crossbow.
Although there are only forty guards in total now, but with a magic reambow, the rain of arrows released is comparable to the 500 archers in the ordinary army of the Lampari Kingdom.
A continuous rain of arrows shot out in the darkness, and the screaming voices of people and horses rang out in front of them, showing that the incoming enemy must be seriously injured.
Just as Xu Yi felt that if this continued, the enemy who came suddenly might be shot clean before they approached the camp, suddenly a bright light blue light circle lit up in the darkness ahead, like a semicircular cover. Shrouded in the wilderness.
“Blue Guardian?”
Seeing this light blue aperture, Xu Yi was taken aback.
This light blue aperture is clearly the azure blue guardian of the water system’s eighth-level magic!
So, there is actually a high-level magician who can cast eighth level magic in the team that came to sneak attack?
The endless rain of arrows slammed into this light blue light curtain, but it seemed to be installed on a wall made of water. It could only wave water waves on the aperture, but couldn’t penetrate the light curtain at all. One after another fell from the outside of the light curtain.
Seeing this situation, Hart’s face sank, turned his head to look at Xu Yi, hesitated, and said, “Mr. President, it seems that you still need to take action.”
Xu Yi looked at the opposing cavalry team that could be seen clearly under the curtain of light, and found that there were more than a hundred cavalry soldiers who had survived the rain of arrows just now, and his brows suddenly frowned.
Such a large number of cavalry troops will definitely not be ordinary bandits, but they should look more like regular troops.
Even judging from their complete equipment, uniform movements, and seemingly well-trained coordination, even the general city guards in the Kingdom of Lampari are far behind.
So where did these guys come from? And why did they suddenly carry out a raid on the fleet of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce at night?
However, it is not the time to think about these questions. Hearing Hart’s request, Xu Yi shook his head slightly: “It is not the best time for me to take action. Hart, put on a new magic quiver.”
Hart’s eyes widened suddenly: “No? You will grow up, do you really want to use it?”
“Nonsense, don’t use it at this time, save it to have a baby?” Xu Yi scolded.
Hart swallowed with difficulty, turned his head and gestured to the guards around him.
The other guards also looked incredible. They looked at each other, and after hesitating for a while, they replaced the arbor of the Magic Repeater in their hands and replaced it with a very special-looking arbor.
Seeing that all the guards had been replaced, Hart looked at Xu Yi again with a distressed expression.
“President, do you really want to use it?”
“Don’t talk nonsense, didn’t you see that the enemy is already so close.” Xu Yi pointed to the cavalry team in the wilderness in front of which the speed dropped after propping up the azure blue guard.
“All right……”
Hart turned his head to look at the enemy who was not far away, took a deep breath, and muttered, “Let it go!”
It was slightly different from the sound of countless arrows tearing the air just now. Although the sound of the arrows breaking through the air from the magic continuous crossbow was still piercing and shocking, it seemed a lot softer, as if it suddenly became a lot gentler.
And when the arrows pierced the night sky, there were red trajectories behind them, as if each arrow was trailing a long tail.
The magic continuous crossbow was fired continuously, countless arrows flew out, and countless dense fiery red lines were dragged out in the air in an instant, illuminating the entire night sky completely.
“boom–”
The first arrow hit the light blue light curtain in the blink of an eye, but it was not as easily blocked by the light curtain as the arrows just now, but directly caused a violent explosion.
Along with the red light flashing, a violent deafening explosion sounded far from the wasteland.
“Boom boom boom boom boom…”
Immediately after the first arrow, countless arrows hit the light curtain, instantly causing countless violent explosions again.
The light blue light caused countless water waves to rippling in countless consecutive violent explosions, the light dimmed in an instant, and the entire light curtain became unstable, as if it would disappear directly in the next moment.
But after a while, the light curtain became stable again, and even burst out a stronger but blue light, once again covering the cavalry team below.
“Hey, this guy’s magic is quite strong.” Xu Yi sneered and said to Hart: “Keep shooting, I’ll see how long he can hold on.”
Hart smiled bitterly: “President, why are you? You told us last time that the cost of a flame magic arrow is 30 silver coins. Let us save a bit. But now we have shot it. Going out forty flame magic arrows, this is a total of 800 flame magic arrows, and it cost a total of… it cost two hundred and forty gold coins!”
“Oh, it’s not too much. If you can destroy a magician with just over two hundred gold coins, I think it’s quite a bargain.” Xu Yi didn’t care about it. “Okay, don’t say anything, just continue. Do you want those guys to really rush into the camp? Don’t forget, the things in the camp are more expensive now. If they rush in, the damage will be caused. Ten times more than two hundred and forty gold coins.”
“But the guildmaster, obviously you can fight against this magician if you take action, so that we can solve the cavalry without a problem at all. Why waste this money?”
“First, if I can’t make a move, of course I will try not to make a move. Why should I do it if I can solve a problem with money?” Xu Yi glanced at the cavalry that was close to a hundred meters away, and continued with a sneer. Said: “Second, this is a warning to some people, telling them that the power we have in the hands of the New Flying Business Association has far exceeded their imagination.”
Hart frowned: “Sir, shouldn’t this kind of thing be kept secret?”
Xu Yi chuckled and said, “You don’t understand this. Even this kind of thing needs to be advertised.”
