2080 The attack of sea monsters (1)
Seeing the sea monsters being shot and killed one after another, the recruits didn’t even have the chance to rush over. Their faces were full of excitement.
The fear he had for the sea monster had long disappeared. He even felt that the sea monster was nothing.
Looking at the weapons in their hands, they actually had a feeling of love.
It was obvious that everyone knew that without these weapons, the battle would not have been so easy.
The seasoned soldiers who had thought of how to protect themselves in the event of danger were all dumbfounded at this moment.
If this situation continued, they might not be able to get any battle merits until the end of the battle.
If they couldn’t get any battle merits, it was equivalent to cutting off their source of income, and they couldn’t get anything from the temple.
“There’s no way we can fight this battle. Are we just going to watch from the side?”
The seasoned soldiers who never suffered losses immediately looked for Sun Jun, wanting to ask for an explanation.
Although he was a little afraid of Sun Jun’s means, he still had to fight for his rights and interests. Otherwise, he would be the only one who would suffer.
In the end, Sun Jun told them that the battle merits for killing monsters would be distributed after the war. At the same time, it would be increased or decreased according to individual performance.
The more capable one was, the more battle merits they would receive.
Even if they didn’t use any weapons or kill sea monsters, as long as they participated in the battle, they would still receive the corresponding battle merits after the battle.
At the same time, Sun Jun also warned the Veterans not to think that they could play tricks just because they were distributed uniformly. He would always patrol on the city wall and watch everyone’s performance.
Once he found someone who dared to be passive and slack in the battle, he would record it down and deal with it when it was time to distribute the battle merits.
If the veteran wanted to cause trouble, he would not be polite.
After hearing Sun Jun’s words, the Veterans did not say anything more, because the other party’s explanation was clear enough.
When they returned to their respective platoons, the Veterans seemed to have changed into different people. They stared at the sea in front of them.
At this moment, they were actually like the new soldiers, hoping for more sea monsters to come. These scattered wild monsters were no longer able to satisfy their appetites.
In fact, after thinking about it carefully, this method of not having to fight sea monsters in close combat but being able to distribute battle merits was indeed much more comfortable than before.
The atmosphere on the city wall also became more relaxed. From time to time, everyone would raise their voices and chat, estimating how many sea monsters they could kill.
This kind of state of fighting wholeheartedly was very rare in other defense areas, especially in high-risk defense areas. It was a situation that had never happened before.
Under normal circumstances, the believers would avoid the attacks of sea monsters as much as possible. After all, every battle would cause a large number of casualties.
In the end, it was guns and weapons that gave them confidence. Their desire for battle merits had surpassed their fear of sea monsters.
The gunshots on the city wall were still going on. Sea monsters were killed one after another, and there were only a few monsters left in the sea.
A layer of blood-red, greasy foam had already accumulated on the shore. The corpses of the sea monsters were laid all the way from the shore to the ocean, rising and falling with the waves.
The sea water was bright red and gave off a pungent smell of blood that could be smelled from far away.
Although the believers had killed a large number of sea monsters in a short period of time, once it was evenly distributed, each person would not get much battle merits.
It seemed that only the attack of a real sea monster army would provide enough military merits. Although it would take a huge risk, the return was equally satisfactory.
A wily old soldier looked at the ocean in front of him with a hint of doubt on his face, as if he could not understand why there was no army of monsters appearing.
It was the same for the other believers. They felt inexplicably irritated when they did not see more monsters appear.
Just as the believers were discussing animatedly, a black line suddenly appeared slowly at the horizon.
The Sentry in charge of observing the enemy immediately sent out a warning. Then, they heard the muffled sound of war drums from the temple.
The sound of the war drums meant that the sea monster army was coming. The believers who had been confused before immediately became excited and nervous.
They tried their best to keep their eyes wide open, constantly observing the intersection between the sky and the sea, trying to see how big the sea monsters were.
At this moment, something that looked like sails suddenly appeared in front of them, as if a giant fleet of ships was pushing forward.
Oh my God, how could it be this kind of monster? I’m afraid we’re in trouble now!
that’s right. The number of monsters is at least hundreds of thousands, or even more!
When the seasoned soldiers saw the sail-like object, they all revealed shocked expressions, looking somewhat incredulous.
The new recruits around them immediately asked in a nervous tone, wanting to know the origin of this sea monster.
The veteran didn’t hide anything and immediately told the recruit about the origin of the sea monster.
The thing that looked like a sail was actually a dorsal fin of a giant sea beast. Its size was huge, comparable to a moving Island.
The main function of the giant sea beast was to send the sea monsters to the shore so that they would not be exhausted from the long journey.
The base camp of the sea monsters was located in the deep sea and moved often, in case they were discovered by the believers and targeted by the temple.
In addition to being responsible for transportation, the giant sea beast itself also had a very strong attack power. Its dorsal fins could shoot out acid balls to attack the city wall in the sea.
This type of acid ball was extremely corrosive, and it was not easy to recover from an infected wound. If not treated in time, it could even cause the body to fester.
Once they encountered such a situation, the believers could only pay battle credits and rely on the healing function of the temple to help them heal.
Because the giant sea beast’s attack ability was impossible to guard against, and it would also carry a large number of sea monsters, most of the Veterans did not want to see its figure.
The main reason was that the feeling of being beaten up by others and not being able to fight back was extremely sullen.
In fact, in the temple, there were also weapons that could launch long-range attacks, and they were quite powerful.
However, in order to activate a long-range attack, the defending area had to pay a certain amount of war glory before the temple would fire a beam attack.
no matter how powerful the monster was, it would instantly turn into ashes under the light beam that was similar to the runic magic circle.
However, the attack range of the light beam runic magic circle was only one kilometer in diameter, so it was a rather crucial matter to choose the attack Position.
The entire attack process had to be controlled by the commander. As for how many monsters could be killed in a single attack and whether they could recoup their costs, it was entirely up to luck.
The problem was that when using this kind of attack, it was at the moment of life and death, so even if it was a loss, he had to brace himself to do it.
As for the battle merits consumed by the attack, they did not belong to the believers, but the battle merits earned by the defense area itself.
Such military merits could not be used by believers. They could only be used to upgrade the temple, exchange for city defense weapons, and repair the materials needed for the city wall and daily consumption.
If the damage was too great, the temple would automatically be downgraded, causing some items to be unable to be exchanged.
If he wanted to redeem it again, he would have to work hard to kill sea monsters and then level up the temple again.
Although many believers complained about this, they could not go against the rules set by the Grand temple.
what are you afraid of? we have guns and cannons in our hands. We can use these sea monsters as practice!
Sun Jun’s voice rang out. When the believers on the city wall heard it, they immediately laughed.
“That’s right, kill these sea monsters!”
A new recruit shouted excitedly, and the people beside him immediately echoed, shouting one after another.
The experienced soldiers were the same. Although they were shocked by the number of sea monsters, they were no longer as panicked as before.
He just didn’t know if the cannons that were pointed at the sky could cause any damage to this giant sea beast, or even kill it directly.
If he could really do that, the battle merits he would get from killing the giant sea beast would probably make all the believers happy.
