"I'm going to die, I'm going to die!" A country soldier trembled and huddled in a corner of the fortress.

He was only twelve meters away from the cave, but even within this short distance, he did not dare to take a step closer.

Because the ten layers of masonry above the fortress he was in had been completely shattered, and the later-repaired masonry was shattered into pieces because the beams in the middle were hit by sub-munition bombs. The fortress without support appeared hollow, and cannonballs continued to fall on the open patio.

The fortress was destroyed beyond recognition.

Only the soldiers hiding in the corners escaped temporarily, but it was only a matter of time before they were bombarded to pieces!

By coincidence, Zhang Tianliu was staying in this fortress that had been opened.

Seeing another mother bomb explode above his head, countless bullets rained down, destroying their last escape route and the tunnel built by the rune craftsmen. Zhang Tianliu shook his head and smiled bitterly, while the soldiers beside him were about to cry without tears!

It’s over!

The last escape route is gone!

If I had known this, I should have seized the distance between the shells and rushed towards the hole at the risk of death. Maybe there was a chance of survival. Now, I can only wait for death.

Zhang Tianliu took out the dried meat, took a few bites and put it in his pocket, chewing while moving the bricks.

Now everyone is waiting to die. Only Zhang Tianliu made a move, which naturally attracted everyone's attention. At first, everyone thought he wanted to be a dead ghost, but as he repaired some intact rune bricks that had fallen off around him, everyone understood!

"This kid hasn't given up yet!"

Although everyone doesn't think he can build it, because there are formation patterns on the bricks, and the patterns are somewhat different for each type of brick, and there is no one that fits well. The rune brick is just a slightly harder ordinary brick, which will also be blown to pieces by cannonballs.

, it will blow up and injure those around it.

Only by forming a complete array of bricks can the entire defense be effective. What's more, bricks alone are not enough. They also need to be supported by beams, otherwise they cannot be capped. Is it any different from the fortress that has been opened in front of you?

Unexpectedly, Zhang Tianliu actually made it!

The half-destroyed beams were erected as the main beams. It doesn't matter if the bricks on the sides don't fit, just carve them on the spot!

Then he used scraps of wood, broken bone armor, bone knives, and scraps of materials from the rune maker's corpse to make a wall. When bullets poured down again, Zhang Tianliu's place was more or less destroyed, and the rest of the place was more or less destroyed.

Got the seedlings!

A general put down his bone shield and immediately shouted to Zhang Tianliu: "Little brother, please be more lenient."

"Yes, it's best to come to us!" This is what the soldier on the opposite side prayed.

"Give me a seat!" When the soldiers near Zhang Tianliu discovered that there were protective measures, they immediately gathered together and crowded behind the wall tiles repaired by Zhang Tianliu.

There are at least seven layers of protection above their heads. The edge defense of this circular fortress is very thick. The only thing that can harm them is the splash aftermath of the shell explosion. Most of them are wearing bone armor and are largely unable to

Resist the splashing pebbles. Don't underestimate this kind of thing. If it happens to pass through the gap in the bone armor, it can easily penetrate into the human body. If it injures the internal organs, it can be fatal.

However, their bone armor is still barbaric bone armor, a kind of simple exoskeleton armor that stimulates brute strength and has huge gaps. It has no protection near the waist and is only supported by a spine on the lower back. Nine out of ten soldiers in the fortress are because of this.

His waist and abdomen were pierced by flying stones, and he bled to death.

The wall repaired by Zhang Tianliu can withstand splash damage very well. As long as the curved wall above their heads can hold on for a long time, they still have hope of survival.

Zhang Tianliu worked hard in silence. Although he moved very quickly, he was the only one after all. The others could only watch and could not help at all. This resulted in him being squeezed out when the second wave of sputtering offensive came.

Many of the soldiers on the edge were injured, and three of them were seriously injured and fell to the ground.

"What are you doing in a daze? Move all the materials nearby. If you don't recognize the materials, move the bricks and stones. Try to pick complete bricks. Do you understand? Don't use half bricks. The space is already small. Moving them here will only get in the way.

Anyone who blows up the back door will die."

Finally, a runesmith risked his life and ran to Zhang Tianliu from between the shells and began to give instructions.

"Little brother, your skills are pretty good. Have you ever been a rune craftsman before?"

"Eboner." Zhang Tianliu answered casually, without arousing the other party's suspicion. Many deboners are also proficient in the work of rune craftsmen, but they are not exposed to rune production. There is absolutely no problem with the craftsmanship, even some experienced eviscerators.

The craftsmanship is superior to that of the rune masters of the Wen sect.

What surprised the runesmith was Zhang Tianliu's calmness in the face of danger!

He also had the skills to repair walls, but in the desperate environment just now, he could only wait for death. It was Zhang Tianliu who woke him up and gave him hope that he could continue to rely on his craftsmanship to survive.

With such a relaxed mind, the runesmith not only rolled up his sleeves and got to work, but also continued to use soldiers to help build the wall.

Soon, this rune craftsman was infected by the rune craftsmen opposite. There were actually quite a few rune craftsmen in the fortress. Ten of them could be picked out at a glance. It was just that they were too frightened just now and forgot about their creative hands. Now they calmed down and started to work.

Invested in the wall construction project, and hundreds of soldiers also joined in, assisting the rune craftsmen in building protective walls one after another around the edge of the fortress.

"Huh? Why is there no sound?"

The young commander in the fortress was suddenly startled and looked towards the sky above the sloping patio.

The little commander who has experienced hundreds of battles is particularly sensitive to the sound effects of the battlefield. Although there have been cases where the sound of artillery has stopped before, it has a frequency. From dense and slowly loosening, to regular one-shot, one shot, there will always be a sound.

There is a rhythm.

But now, the little commander feels that this rhythm is broken!

This is not a good thing!

The fact that the attack rhythm of the evil insects has stopped showing that they have to change their tactics!

"Be careful! Your feet!" The little commander shouted suddenly with a flash of inspiration. He took the lead and smashed the bone shield to the ground. The person stepped on the bone shield, but nothing happened. It looked like the little commander himself.

Going crazy.

Before anyone could make fun of them, suddenly, the ground inside the fortress bulged out, and what came out was not the soldiers holding engineer shovels, but the knife bugs that made everyone frightened!

"not good!"

The soldiers who were near the knife bug were so frightened that they peed their pants.

The Knife Insect doesn't care whether you are afraid or not. The moment it emerged from the ground, the blade wings on its body spread out like exploding hair and swooped along the edge of the fortress. In an instant, it killed five people, cutting three in half and one person in half.

When the head fell to the ground, only half of the head of the last person was cut off. Death was even more miserable than if the head fell to the ground intact!

The knife insect's offensive has not stopped, and there are still a bunch of people crowded in the corner in front of it, waiting for it to harvest.

But its swooping momentum failed to withstand these people, and it was stopped by a bone knife.

The one who took action was Zhang Tianliu!
Chapter completed!
