Chapter 1255: Task Restriction 2
Metallic shrapel and bone blade fragments splashed everywhere.
In just five seconds, the door of the combat cabin had developed over a dozen deep cracks, looking like vicious wounds caused by ripping.
The gap between the cabin door and the wall had been enlarged slightly by the bone knife, revealing the hidden mechanical devices of the sluice gates within the wall.
The players were so terrified by the onslaught of the Wild Bone Undead that they promptly pointed their burst guns toward the shooting windows and spewed flames outside.
The burst bullets, usually effective, now seemed remarkably mild.
They should have erupted into scorching flames and numerous fragments upon striking a hard object.
...
But now, the layer of Frost Armor on the Wild Bone Undead seemed to have a bizarre effect of freezing projectiles in their tracks.
All burst bullets approaching the Frost Armor were quickly covered with frost, then lost all forward kinetic energy and fell to the ground in the form of ice blocks.
“Damn it! The burst bullets aren’t working! Everyone switch to flamethrowers now! Hurry, hurry, hurry! Drive back the enemies near the door!”
The burst guns were silent for half a second, then bright dragons of fire jetted from their underslung barrels.
“Whoo——”
Dozens of fire dragons rampaged through the Wild Bone Undead, violently reacting with their Frost Armor, and producing billowing white fog.
The movements of the Wild Bone Undead slowed slightly, but the white fog obscuring their vision didn’t cause them to lose their sense of direction.
Guided by the sound of the flamethrowers, they continued to surge towards the combat cabin.
Before long, the combat cabin, occupying an area of about two to three hundred square meters, was surrounded by three layers of Wild Bone Undead both inside and out.
“Clang, clang, clang, clang…”
The dense sounds of blades striking rang out from every corner of the combat cabin like urgent drumbeats, causing a surge in adrenaline.
The players roared and shouted, frantically spewing flames to push back the enemy, but the Wild Bone Undead advanced relentlessly as if they never knew retreat.
Cucumber Slice yelled at the top of his lungs,
“Get those damn high-energy explosive bundles over here! I need to blast an opening in this encirclement, or else the door will eventually be breached!”
Once the explosive bundles were in hand, Cucumber Slice pointed toward the door and shouted again,
“Focus fire over there, help me drive the enemy back!”
A few tongues of fire redirected toward the Wild Bone Undead attacking the door.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh——”
The continuous jetting of flames caught several Wild Bone Undead off guard, and they were swallowed by the fire.
Their Frost Armor, already melted into white fog and water droplets from the heat and flames of earlier battles, now quickly turned them into scorched residues under this torrent of flames, losing all their Construct Value and returning to the earth.
An area was cleared outside the door.
Seizing the moment, Cucumber Slice forcefully threw, and the high-energy explosive bundle whizzed through the shooting window, landing forty to fifty meters away amid the pile of Wild Bone Undead.
A second later, a ticking sound marked the end of the countdown for the explosive bundle, followed immediately by an earth-shaking blast wave.
“Boom!!!”
The ceiling, walls, and floor each trembled violently.
The fierce blast wave swept through the area with devouring flames, sparing only Noland Lee’s high platform behind an invisible barrier, untouched by the explosion.
The high-energy explosive bundle, made up of several high-energy explosive rods, indeed destroyed many of the Wild Bone Undead.
Noland sensed around him.
That explosion had just taken out at least thirty Wild Bone Undead, leaving them as wreckage on the ground.
Turning to look at the combat cabin.
Although it was near the center of the explosion, it had taken almost no damage, and the players inside were all unharmed.
It seems that this combat cabin had been specifically reinforced to handle the impact of explosions.
If these little players had many high-energy explosive bundles on hand, clearing all the Wild Bone Undead from the scene was just a matter of time.
As the turmoil from the explosion subsided, cheers erupted from inside the combat cabin.
“Wow~~ Explosives work! Guys, how many high-energy explosive bundles do we still have?”
“Five more! Definitely enough!”
“Give me another one! Just like before, use the flamethrowers for cover, and I’ll throw the explosives out!”
Noland’s heart stirred slightly as he eyed the Frost Skeleton Mage on the sidelines.
That could not happen.
If he let the players clear this stage with explosive bundles, that would belittle the magic power he, as the boss, controlled. noveldrama
Noland snickered secretly, focusing his attention on the shooting window.
The Wild Bone Undead again encompassed the combat cabin.
A few underslung flamethrowers spewed flames toward the door of the combat cabin.
“Swoosh—” Another high-energy explosive bundle flew out from the shooting window as the flames pushed back the Wild Bone Undead.
The Frost Skeleton Mage on the edge of the battlefield didn’t hesitate. Raising its Frost Magic Wand, it shot an “Instant Freeze Beam” into the air at the high-energy explosive bundle.
“Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle——”
At the same time, several whitish beams struck the explosive bundle.
Before the high-energy explosive bundle could hit the ground, it turned into a hard lump of ice in mid-air and clanged onto the ground, without scattering a shred of ice, completely resistant to impact and falls.
“Huh?? It can be done like that!? Are those skeleton mages freaking smart now or what?!”
“Damn, how are we supposed to play this?!”
“Don’t just stand there; attack those Frost Skeleton Mages with burst guns and see if they can block the bullets,” Cucumber Slice yelled.
