Chapter 1109 Turn the tide
Shortly after Geno and Gana left, the swarm began to emerge in the mist again. They gathered again to form a worm tide and launched an impact on the Bridge of Sorrow.
"Ignite! Shoot the arrow!"
The arrow rain burning with eternal flames shot, achieving significant results again. However, the subsequent insect tide would automatically bypass the places where the flames were burning. This change alone shocked Ashe and the others - the eternal flame could no longer spread through the contact between the insect swarm, which made them feel stressed.
The crew of Zhuyuan, who discovered this, also joined the battle urgently.
Sarah laughed wildly and shot out the cone-shaped barrage of death. Her unrestrained laughter and the lightning from her muzzle illuminated the dim abyss.
With the arrows left and right, Ezreal accurately sniped the individuals who rushed in the front, and then accumulated their energy to release the ultimate barrage to sweep away a large battlefield.
After the jump, Zoe created an arcane comet, aiming the fallen trajectory at the insect swarm. The collision of the meteorite caused a burst of explosions. The small particles it absorbed during its flight had a chain reaction, and then caused a second explosion, clearing the insects on some ice cliff and leaving a huge pit.
The vibration caused by the violent explosion threw many insects down. The entire glacier was trembling, and the Bridge of Sadness, sandwiched between the glacier, inevitably shook a few times.
Click.
But even so, it is impossible to suppress the insect tide in all directions. There are always some fish that have escaped the net fortunately crossing the line of fire, attaching to the bottom of the bridge, and then launching sneak attacks in unexpected places.
In places where firepower cannot cover, the tide of insects crossed the horizontal cordon from both sides away from the bridge, and then converged in the middle of the main castle gate at a height. Countless purple spots of pulsating light rays changed the light, and the subtle changes in the environment attracted the attention of Syndra.
The twisted monsters attacked from all directions, and the momentum of the siege made people panic.
They all know that the most difficult time is coming...
Syndra did not allow the insect tide to converge smoothly like this.
She used her mind to lift the tide of insects and threw them down the abyss. The dark magic ball hit the ice cliff with her fingers flying, easily blowing the insects into pieces.
But she could not care about the bridge head and the tail. Although she delayed the convergence of the insects at the gate, the invasions at the tail of the bridge were bombarded with firepower to form a tide, and then jumped onto the bridge in large areas.
Like a meat grinder, dense insects dragged hundreds of ice ages and trolls at the end of the bridge and drowned them. In an instant, they swallowed them so much that they didn't even have bones left. Then they grew a pale and terrible life with a mass of mucus, making the first cry of a new life.
Sharp and harsh.
The black tide that swallowed flesh and blood was approaching quickly. Under the oppression of extreme fear, the defenders began to fight and retreat towards the bridgehead where the main fort gate was.
Jax went upstream in the retreating crowd, and when the insect tide came, he kicked the brazier down. The charcoal fire burning with eternal flames poured on the black tide, and immediately exploded like a ignition of flammable substances, rising a pillar of fire dozens of meters high!
The tragic screams and scorching crackling stinged Jax's ears, but he turned a deaf ear. He threw away his mask and took off his shirt, smashed the lampshade and rushed to the edge of the sea of fire, smashed the deadly struggling insects with the lamppost, and fiddled with the charcoal fire scattered all over the ground into a line of fire that could not be crossed by the insect tide!
Even though the price of doing so was that his beard was burned with flames, his muscles were covered with burning scars, and his calloused hands were filled with swollen blisters.
Kasha used plasma barrage to cover Jax's retreat with respect, but the problem was still not solved. People ignored each other and divided some firepower to deal with the ice cliff and the enemies on the bridge. The enemies below relied on the number of crushing and forcibly broke through the fire belt and climbed to the bottom of the bridge.
"Hiss--" A terrifying shout rang everywhere on the bridge at the same time.
The insects climbed up onto the fence, launched a raid from both sides of the bridge, ran towards the food in front of them, waved their sickle-like forelimbs, cut open blood vessels and pierced the heart, and reaped life wantonly. Even if they were powerful ice-born warriors, they could not survive the crazy siege of the insects.
The swarm soon occupied most of the bridge, and even the statues of the three sisters were covered with these things. Death was spreading rapidly, and Ashe ordered the soldiers to fight around the brazier. They threw away their bows and arrows, and they picked up their Ice weapons or forbidden magic weapons to fight with the swarm. The scene was extremely tragic.
Due to nature, the insect swarm did not dare to get too close to the brazier burning with eternal flames. The surviving soldiers were forced to grab the torches from the brazier and confronted them, and were isolated into dozens of isolated islands by the Black Tide of Death.
Ashe was forced to separate from Sezhunni. She looked at Sezhunni in the distance, and was worried. The huge size of the steel bristle made it unable to shrink its whole body to the deterrent range of the flames. Even if it was backwards and sticks its butt to the brazier and is burned. The insects rushed onto its face frantically and left deep bone-visible scars. The steel bristle howled in pain, and Sezhunni could only wave the torch angrily to protect her pet.
However, her own situation was not much better. Those hideous insects gathered outside the fire. They stacked one by one and almost formed a surging wall, as if a leap could hit her face. Setting fire at such a close distance would roast herself to death. She kept drawing bows and archery to kill these insects, but some soldiers were dragged out by the insects that suddenly crossed the line without paying attention. They were cruelly gnawed in front of them, and bloody and horrified!
The wolf spirit danced wildly, and the pressure between life and death squeezed his mind wildly, and everyone was trembling with fear.
Click.
The sound of war roars, howlings and screams gathered into a bloody chorus. But a trace of insignificant noise made the Shindra who was about to run away under tremendous pressure.
This slight voice ran through the battle until now, but she still couldn't find out the cause.
Click—
Just as she was about to go crazy about this, the sound amplified dozens of times and then came into her ears. Then the Bridge of Sorrow suddenly sank...
It's going to collapse!
People screamed in surprise, and the bridge suddenly collapsed down again. After a moment of pause, they finally lost all their support and fell into the abyss crookedly like a kite with broken strings.
The brazier fell, and some people who had no time to stand firm were caught off guard with the swarm being thrown out, becoming part of the howling spirits in the abyss forever.
At the critical moment, Shindra turned the tide and used her huge mental power to support the falling bridge, pulling most of the remaining people back from the end of death to the reality of life hanging on the line.
