"If the shield is scrapped, replace it, and don't stop!'' Han Zhuhu commanded loudly.
"Shoot the trebuchet with artillery for cover, take advantage of the range of our rifles, and shoot wherever there is movement!" Han Zhuhu shouted loudly.
This is the conclusion he got after observing for a long time, the damage output of these sprites is terrifying, but in range, the effective range of a rifle is 600 meters. Some of the higher-quality rifles have a longer range, this is an advantage of the Great Wilderness Army.
Some Great Wilderness Army soldiers have already begun to evacuate to a nearby mountain, although the terrain is steep, they aren't threatened by the elf's bow and arrow.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The Great Wilderness Army's counterattack has begun, the target of the first round of artillery fire is not the elves, but the ground in front to detonate the dropped kerosene tank. The raging fire is getting bigger and bigger and the elf team was forcibly blocked.
There was a commotion, as an elf, even a dark elf, they still disliked fire. The elf captains in the back are all shooting arrows with their bows and their target is the catapults. The eyesight of the elves is very good and with their archery skill, the accuracy is very high.
Han Zhuhu's eyes lit up and said, "Half of the artillery fire on the captains!" Those gunners have been waiting for this moment, so a cannonball was fired quickly onto the elf captain.
Seeing these shells' trajectories, the faces of the elves changed. Immediately, the elf captains didn't dare to continue shooting, so they put down the bow in their hands and standstill. This scene was discovered by the people of the research team.
"Sure enough, we guessed right.'' A scholar said excitedly: "The ability of this meteor can only be activated when the meteor bow is stationary!"
"Don't worry about the specific mechanism of the bow's passive ability.'' An old team leader said, "Just find its weakness!"
"The weaknesses have yet to be determined, but...'' A scholar next to him said: "I think this passive ability should also be limited!"
"I hope so." The old team leader nodded.
If the bottom tactics failed, the situation will be very bad. All artillery fire, bullets, and kerosene is not a threat to the elves, instead, this is just a tactical cover.
"Fang Zhenting has also been eliminated. Now all of our Jiangcheng candidates are also eliminated." in the seventh meeting room, looking at the pictures on the projection, a teacher sighed.
"Jiangcheng's top ten talents, Wang Tianyi and Lu Tao, were all eliminated in the last round, and now Fang Zhenting is also out." Teacher Liu Yue said, "Only three people are left which are Jiang Fan, Tang Qingqing, and Bu Jingyue. These elves are not easy to deal with."
On the projection, the situation of Bu Jingyue is bad. The tribe created by Bu Jingyue is also a race that is good at archery but compared to the dark elves, it is still a lot worse.
Fortunately, there are five spirit tree people in front, which slow down the dark elves. For the past two months, Bu Jingyue has cultivated three more spirit trees and its strength is greatly enhanced.
Even though the spirit tree has an amazing defense, being constantly attacked by dark elves, especially under the blow of the Meteor Bow, it's getting a little bit unbearable.
"Bu Jingyue has to use some trump cards, otherwise, she won't be able to pass this level!" In the City Lord's Mansion Hall, a planet master saw this scene and said directly. Everyone knows that this year's genius, especially the top ones, there must be some trump cards left.
Even in the top 100, the battle is also tough, it is not like the previous rounds, someone will be knocked out soon when facing the dark elves. They all used all available means, the Xiuling clan who are commanded by Bu Jingyue took out a huge bow with unique shapes.
''Is that the Xiu Ling bow?'' A planet master immediately recognized it.
"This is one of the best bows of the Xiu Ling family, but the key material for making the Xiu Ling bow can only be produced on at least a third-level planet!" Another planet master said.
"This must have been given by Bu Jingyue's teacher, this resource investment is really big." A planet master sighed. "Even the heart of the stars was given."
Everyone is emotional. If only they had such good teachers back then, then they can aspire to be the top spot in the college entrance examination.
The Great Wilderness Army at this moment, the most crucial moment has arrived. The bottom strategy is about to be implemented.
Jiang Fan watched with interest, he naturally knows what the bottom tactics of the Great Wilderness Army are. That is under the city walls, several tunnels have been dug up by the Great Wilderness Army, this is also one of the many careful plans of the Great Wilderness Army. Although it is unremarkable, the key is that in the tunnel, a lot of gunpowder is buried.
Now the gunpowder of the Great Wilderness Army is far more advanced than the black powder of the post-era. It almost reached the peak level of Jiang Fan's previous life on Earth. And in the tunnel, the gunpowder that buries weighs about 200,000 pounds and is densely packed. This was originally intended to deal with powerful single extraordinary creatures, but the tactics that will be used on the dark elves.
On the war zone, the commanding general has the highest command authority, Yan and Guiguzi, and others have no objection. Han Zhuhu had already made careful arrangements in his heart.
While the artillery shells kept bombing, an elite team of thirty people quietly slipped into the tunnel and ignite the leads. The thirty-man squad immediately retreated.
Seeing the return of the thirty-man squad, a sharp look flashed in Han Zhuhu's eyes. Han Zhuhu ordered: "Everyone, pick up your shields and protect yourself.''
The gunpowder buried in the tunnel is as much as 200,000 pounds, which is equivalent to one hundred tons. Nobody knows the power of this explosion. The Great Wilderness Army has tried the power of gunpowder before, but with so much gunpowder, it is impossible to test.
Above the ground, the dark elves are still cut off by the raging fire and can't go any further. In the middle at the back, several elf captains were whispering something to the elf queen, they seems to be discussing tactics.
After discussing for a while, the elf queen pulled out the huge bow behind her and aim at the three trebuchets on the city wall. Yes, three. The elf queen put three arrows on the huge bow at once.
And the elf captain and guards beside her is her personal protection to make sure she will not be attacked by the cannon shells of the Great Wilderness Army.
"This elf queen's arrows must be more powerful!" Said a scholar.
"But it's too late!" Another scholar blocks himself with a small shield.
And the dark elves this time seem to sense the danger, so the elves feel slightly uneasy and there was some commotion. Seeing this scene, the Elf Queen frowned slightly but didn't say anything.
She didn't stop shooting her bow and she is getting ready to shoot three arrows at the same time.
Sudden, there was a tremor from the ground. The Elf Queen was the first to perceive it and immediately realized something was wrong. She is about to put down the Meteor Bow, but it's too late. The flame ignited a hundred tons of gunpowder buried in the ground.
BOOM!
A loud sound sounded and the ground is shaking. These gunpowders are only a thin layer of distance from the ground. What is the concept of a hundred tons of gunpowder exploding? The ground was turned over directly and all the dirt, stones, vegetation, etc. were all blasted into the sky.
This sudden and instantaneous offensive doesn't allow the passive ability of Meteor Bow to activate and the dark elves are like pieces of paper.
When the smoke settles, everyone in the Great Wilderness Army saw it, there was only a fragmented body left on the ground. Most of the dark elves die, not even a complete body can be preserved. The elf queen was also affected, her Meteor Bow seems to be more powerful, as it activated the passive defense ability in the nick of time. But this is a hundred tons of gunpowder, not even a meteor was able to completely block it.
1
She was directly blasted by this terrifying aftermath and flew in the air. The guards and the elf captain beside her are even more tragic. Of the ten Elf Captains, nine died on the spot, and the other one has his limb blown off.
Even the Great Wilderness Army on the city wall, when seeing the tragedy below, they look with wide-eyed eyes. It was the first time they saw a scene where hundreds of tons of gunpowder exploded. It can be said to be a doomsday scene.
''It seems that the Meteor Bow is indeed as we thought, and the passive ability has a reaction time.'' Said a scholar.
"Yes.'' Another scholar nodded and said, "The instant detonation of the gunpowder exceeds the reaction time of the Meteor Bow. And, most importantly,...'' The scholar looked at the tragic situation in the distance, couldn't help shaking his head and said, "After all, the passive defense of the Meteor Bow is limited, and it can't stop the power of such a large amount of gunpowder!"
This fact also shocked many scholars. Any tactics are secondary, the most important thing is still their own strength. If they are strong enough, even the Meteor Bow can be broken.
"The special forces team is dispatched with me! Other teams follow!" Han Zhuhu did not forget his mission.
He leads the team himself which comprises a thousand elite soldiers as well as three thousand ordinary soldiers. They went to the ground that was blasted and surround the remaining dark elves.
Of the three thousand dark elves at this time, only a third of it is left. Most are injured and the rest are without any fighting spirit. Looking at the bodies of the dead companions around, there is numbness on their faces. It's like being hit by thunderbolts.
"Disarm and capture them alive, kill those who cannot be captured alive!" Han Zhuhu ordered.
He immediately leads the special forces to the position of the elf queen. At this time, the elf queen has been seriously injured but she is the strongest of all the dark elves, so she still holds the Meteor Bow in her hand, however, this bow is broken by the explosion just now. She watched the soldiers of the Great Wilderness Army rushing up vigilantly, beside her, there are still a few personal guards and an elf captain alive.
BOOM!
Han Zhuhu fired a shot and he find out the Elf Queen's Meteor Bow has lost its passive ability, so no meteors appeared. Seeing this, Han Zhuhu immediately waved his hand and let the special forces rush forward to surround these remaining elves to catch them alive.
The result wasn't surprising, the Elf Queen resisted fiercely. But after being hit by several bullets, she lost the power to resist and was directly captured by the Great Wilderness Army.
"Pity.'' San Yuchun on the city wall was a little emotional, Han Zhuhu's battle is really good, but it also exposed the trump card of the Great Wilderness Army in advance. The underground tunnels were all destroyed, so this tactic can no longer be used for a short period of time.
According to the time of the glorious battle, when this round is over, they have only an hour to rest, and then there will be the next wave of extraordinary species invasion. It is impossible to dig a tunnel.
At this time, the ethereal prompt sounded in the ears of every candidate. "The first candidate to pass this round has appeared, please cheer for the candidates.''
Immediately, everyone was shocked. Someone actually passed the level when they are still struggling. Tang Qingqing watched as her army of warriors was still struggling to resist the attack of the dark elves, so she was a little surprised. How could someone deal with these powerful dark elves so quickly?
"Huh? Interesting, this level is not cleared by the monsters at the top of the ranking.''
"Jiang Fan!" Tang Yushu looked at the projection and recognized it at once, and said, "That's the candidate who broke two records in a row on the first day!"
"It's him?!" Each planet master felt a little incredible.
Although Jiang Fan has high scores in the second and third subjects, the actual test will not be ideal. Some even judge Jiang Fan will stop at this round. No one could have imagined that not only did he not fall in this round, but he was also even the first to pass.
"This Jiang Fan seems to be creating a civilization for ordinary people, right?" An admissions teacher looked at the Great Wilderness Army with a rifle in the projection, and frowned slightly.
"Probably." Another admissions teacher said: "There are all kinds of extraordinary civilizations, and there are too many incredible extraordinary races, this Jiang Fan is estimated to be a very special race!"
"Have you seen the weapons in these people's hands, they are powerful, do you know what they are called?" A planet master asked curiously.
"These people are called Musketeers!" In a place in Blue Moon City, Wang Yao is also looking at the projection on Jiang Fan's planet and explains it to the teacher. The teacher is very well-connected, so the message was sent out immediately. At that time, many bigwigs also know it.
"Musketeers?" An admissions teacher suddenly realized and said: "So it is indeed a very special extraordinary race!"
The Musketeer, although strange, there are many extraordinary species, so everyone was only slightly surprised and quickly accepted it.
"Not just Musketeers.'' Tang Yushu continued: "They also have a more powerful weapon, called black powder, which is what just blasted the dark elves to the sky!"
"It turned out to be called black gunpowder. An old man next to the city lord of Jiangcheng said: "This thing is quite powerful, but it seems to have a lot of restrictions.''
"Yes.'' Tang Yushu nodded and said: "I have studied it specially, this thing can only be activated by hiding it in advance and igniting it with fire. And it must be fixed in a specific position, ignited, and there is no distinction between enemy and ally. It can only be used as a surprise weapon, just like the Meteor Bow of the Dark Elves, if the enemy knows it in advance and is prepared, it will be difficult to exert its effect.
"Although the power is great, the weakness is also obvious." A Planet Lord nodded slightly and said, "But I admit that I did underestimate this Jiang Fan. With his strength, he should be able to rank in the top 5,000 this time.''
This 100-ton gunpowder attack by the Great Wilderness Army let all the planet masters look at it with admiration and raised the rating for Jiang Fan. However, not everyone is happy, like in the editing room of the Tianjiao List in the East Star City.
