Chapter 49 Mixed Species
Roland rubbed his eyes in disbelief, what the hell was this? Was this still within the scope of the biological variability of a demonic beast? What he saas hard to describe ords, even monsters in horror filiant turtle with two heads, but froht, was this a test specimen from Dr Frankenstein? It was al, and it had a total of six legs which were stus However, one foot was the size of at least one adult torso The head … unlike the two-headedat each other, biting each other, or trying to shoas the boss Instead, they were just hanging down, and their eyes had a wooden glazeIt was like a zo forward
However, the de feature was the shell on its back The shell’s surface was dark-brown and covered with algae, and it had a special hardness It was just like a turtle shell, covering the turtle from the front to the back If this monster could also shrink back into its shell like a turtle, it would be really hard to get rid of it
However, Roland didn’t worry, a de had to be slow, so it was destined to be a target Even if the firearms couldn’t penetrate its shell, it was still possible to shoot the heads that were sticking out If it intended to hide in its shell, then they would have to turn it upside doith explosives
“Your Highness, this is a hybrid species,” Iron Axe nervously leaned over and explained, “Now I can understand why the deether They seem to be under the control of the hybrid demonic beast”
So it was like a lion which commanded sheep? Roland nodded “So this is a completely different beast than the one youthis kind of hybrid species Although it looks bizzare, you can’t get careless As long as it’s a mixed species, it will always be hard to deal with it”
“It will soon enter the range of our archers, so try to first kill it with bows and crossbows” ordered Roland
At thisas blowing from the North, the weather wasn’t suitable for archery However, two hunters of Iron Axe’s personal squad were still confident that they could kill the beast
They climbed up the watchtower, tested the wind and then fired their arrows into the air
The two arrows seehest point and then, under the influence of wind and gravity, fell at an alet
Just as envisioned, the arrows bounced off the shell In Roland’s brain it even sounded like a ricochet
Seeing this, the hunters hurriedly inserted their next arrow on their strings, and let loose a second wave
Finally, this volley received a result This time, the impact area was in the front part of the monster, so one arrow precisely entered into the head of a hile the other arroas entered the neck of the other head
However, the dee, it just stopped for a short pause, tucked its head into its shell and then continued to slowly e left everyone stunned
With this the demonic beasts just looked like a tank, its body was as low as possible above the ground so that even a better shooter wouldn’t be able to land an arrow
“Take your guns,” Roland ordered
Now, the target was only fifty feet away frouns weren’t carved rifled flintlocks, he didn’t worry that they would e of the wall, laid the barrels of their guns on the horizontal frame of the wall, ai away fro the shell and splitting away so a small hole within the shell However, the mixed species seeinal speed
It seeory of biological carbon’s intensity, thought Roland Unfortunately, the lead balls were still too soft, so they were easily deformed and were not suitable to penetrate thick armor So, those four rifles alone to break the mixed species’ armor was quite unrealistic, so the only option left was to use explosives
Iron Axe agreed with the Prince’s judgeet the explosives as fast as possible, because the demonic beast had already reached the walls They didn’t feel the earth tremble like it did when the demonic beast stoan to sain, just like a high-frequency rotary haan to fly everywhere and a nu the bound cehly resistant to compression, but the tensile and shear resistance performance of the walls were very poor That meant that the wall’s ability to withstand the shock of vibration was al on the walls could feel a strong vibration, and soon, a shrill sound of friction was delivered to the ears of all the people standing on the wall With this, the wall had begun to give up under the mixed species’ attack
