Chapter 198 Trump Card
Chapter 198 Trump Card
Without a doubt, they were Saruman's ultimate strategic weapon. The Rohan soldiers on the wall lost their fighting spirit because of the appearance of these bugs. A faint dark green color appeared on everyone, on the wall, and even on their weapons and armor. Those weapons and equipment became rusty and fragile, as if they had been left in a bad environment for dozens or even hundreds of years. If this continued, it would not be long before the Helm's Deep Fortress would become a ruin full of dead bodies.
"All the tree shepherds, crossbows, catapults, I mean all of them, aim at those big bugs and attack. We must kill them before this city wall becomes tofu dregs! Kill them all! Not a single one can be left behind~~~~!" Grima's eyes were already red with anxiety. A war like this where the combat power is at an absolute disadvantage is really not easy to fight. If he loses this battle, all the supreme powers he just gained will vanish into thin air and cease to exist. This is a hundred times more painful than letting him die. "Maidens of Poseidon, it's time for you to take action! Open the city gates! Launch a charge! Destroy those damn things! Glory to the Pope, victory to Rohan~~~~!"
As the last trump card in the hands of Prime Minister Grima, all the green-skinned female giants finally reappeared. They no longer wore the gorgeous white robes with gold edges when they were preaching, but changed into super-giant metal plate armor specially made for tree people. The Ents are close to nature by nature and hate all man-made products, and weapons and armor are of course no exception. So in order to persuade the leader of the Sea God Maids, Elder Tree Lady, Lord Grima took great pains and made countless promises. In addition, the mature tree-herding elder had already vaguely felt the terrible crisis, which was a terrible disaster that would sweep across the entire Middle-earth continent, and no life could survive. So she abandoned the traditions and pride that the Ents had adhered to for tens of thousands of years, and persuaded every Sea God Maid to wear the super-large armor that was urgently built with all the strength of the Sea God Temple.
The main material of the armor is ice iron, which is a specialty of Rohan. It is light, strong, and has excellent elasticity and toughness. Although it is not as good as mithril, it was a rare material that only the royal family and nobles of Rohan could use. In order to create more than a hundred sets of ice iron armor, not only did Rohan use up all the inventory accumulated over more than a thousand years, but the bold Grimma even asked someone to secretly dig up the tombs of kings of all dynasties and pulled out the only valuable burial objects from their bones. First-class craftsmen worked overnight, and the best enchanters on the continent infused these armors with strengthening magic. Coupled with the amazing thickness that is more than five times that of ordinary armor, Grimma actually successfully created an indestructible army of steel giants. Equipped with more than two tons of flail meteor hammers and heavy tower shields as thick as castle gates... This heavy-armored sea god maid group is the source of Grimma's confidence and the last trump card in his hand.
The gate was wide open, and more than a hundred female giants, about ten meters tall, wearing heavy armor and holding giant shields and flails, rushed out of the fortress. The flails in the female giants' hands were specially made to deal with targets much smaller than themselves. The handle of the meteor hammer had more than ten heavy chains specially used to connect to the anchor. At the other end of the seven or eight meter long chain, more than ten basketball-sized iron balls covered with conical spikes were fixed. This kind of violent weapon with a large striking range is simply the supreme weapon against orc zombies. Often, a sweep of the flail can clear a large area on the ground, a large area stained red with blood. Targets that are directly hit by more than ten large spiked iron balls will not even have a complete body left.
A corpse poison cannon fell from the sky and hit the tower shield held by a sea god maid, leaving a terrible deep pit on the shield. The giantess retreated seven or eight steps in a row, and finally stood firm with the help of her companions. But despite this, she still caught this terrible cannonball without causing any casualties. This was the first time that the ultimate weapon, the caterpillar, had missed since it entered the battlefield. But at the same time, Lin Yu frowned slightly, and there was no joy on his face.
More than a hundred fully armed female giants rushed into the zombie beast tide like an unstoppable steel torrent. They trampled with their feet, smashed with the flails in their hands, swept with shields, and bombed with their innate natural magic... Let every orc zombie within the attack range completely turn into flesh and blood and return to nature. Behind them is the long-range firepower support brought by the Ent tree herders who are rooted in the earth... This is the most perfect attack combination. Whether they are in front of the zombie army with spears, or lickers, tearers, zombie dogs, and zombie crows, these things are swept away and crushed by them like garbage on the roadside. Like a storm tsunami, they finally rushed to the front of those big meat caterpillars. The next moment, they were greeted by dozens of death lights... "Death Evil Light".
These blood-red beams emitted by the eyes on the shoulders of the Tyrant-type mutants, although the power of a single one is not very significant, but when hundreds of mutants focus on a target and attack at the same time, their "lethal" power is finally demonstrated.
The focus of the beam fell on the shield of a female giant. The five-finger-thick, enchanted and strengthened ice iron shield was instantly burned red. Although the female giant abandoned her shield in time to dodge, she was still hit half of her body by the aftermath of the beam. Not only did her left arm instantly turn to ashes, but even half of her body was burned to charcoal. Fortunately, she was essentially an Ent tree herder. Although such an injury was fatal, she would not die on the spot. Several other female giants rushed forward immediately. Some of them raised their shields to protect her, while others cast natural magic to strengthen everyone's defense and provide emergency treatment for the injured.
"We can't give them another chance to focus our fire. Everyone, disperse and attack! Separate them!" The battle was in full swing. Under the fierce fighting of the 100-member Giant Sisters, one after another, the caterpillars, along with a large number of tyrant zombies as guards, were killed. Almost in the blink of an eye, more than half of the caterpillars on the field were killed, and only one-third of the tyrant mutants were left. When the last big caterpillar died under a heavy blow from the tree elder.
After enduring waves of violence, the Deep Creek Wall of the Helm's Deep Fortress had become shaky and dilapidated, as if it could be blown down in one breath. The wild tree people summoned by natural magic had already been annihilated, and most of them fell because they were torn into pieces bit by bit by the weapons and claws of the zombie orcs.
