Struggle in the Steam Age

After bypassing the scattered outposts and the defensive line of various magic traps, Lawrence, they saw a hill appear in front of them. This hill is about three to four hundred meters high, and the diameter of the base is also three to four hundred meters. The whole stands on a large flat ground, and it looks as if it flew inexplicably.

Gunmen were stationed in all directions on the top of the hill, and at the same time, there were some supernatural beings from the physics department who seemed to be of low rank patrolling around the hill. The two sides monitored the surrounding movements together, and from a purely visual point of view, there was no dead angle in monitoring at all.

More importantly, the surrounding mountains blocked the howling winds from outside. Therefore, on this plain, there is no almost non-stop sandstorm outside, and the air visibility is very high. In other words, if Lawrence and the others rushed out, it would be impossible for such a large team not to be discovered.

"What should we do next?" After Nora circled the small valley under the cover of the mountain and told everyone what she had observed, the person who had been using magic props to hide Lauren was Said the priest of their identity. "I don't think it's very likely to get through this time like the previous few times. It should be head-to-head this time."

"That's right, if there are only one or two people, there may be a way to get through. But more than 20 of us will definitely not be able to do it." Another paladin also said, "But look at the forty or fifty people on this mountain, I think the people hidden in the mountain are either very strong or there are a lot of people, we will definitely not be able to solve the problem if we only go in with one or two people."

As soon as the two leaders of the Fortune Church in this operation said something, the others also expressed their opinions in a hurry. After listening for two or three minutes to understand everyone's demands, Lawrence raised his hand to signal for everyone to keep quiet, and then said, "If I heard correctly, everyone agrees to make a direct assault on the next part of the journey. But how to make an assault?" I think we still need to make a plan first—”

After seven or eight minutes, everyone discussed the plan and started to act. A small group of them, headed by the druid who believed in the father of nature, moved towards the back of the only hole in the mountain. According to the plan, they would make some noise to attract the attention of those people for Lawrence and his main team. sprint opportunities.

After Lawrence and his main force rushed into the cave, their task will be changed to clearing and blocking work. The entrance to the cave needs to be guarded. At the same time, try to clear up these sentry patrols around the plain as much as possible, so as to prevent the enemies who were stationed at the entrance of the crater and the surrounding area from attacking Lawrence and the others who entered the cave.

And the large force that Lawrence was in slowly moved along the mountain in another direction, trying to get as close as possible to the cave entrance on the mountain while hiding their whereabouts during this period of time, so that they could be in the other direction. When a small team is launched, it immediately charges.

There are not many enemies at the entrance of the cave, and most of them are just ordinary gunmen. Obviously, because the opponent mechanically deploys large-scale defenses as described in the defense theory, their relatively adequate team has been seriously dispersed.

The only thing that might harm them is the two hand-cranked multi-barreled machine guns that can form cross-fire in the fortifications formed by sandbags outside the entrance of the cave, and the small-caliber direct-firing infantry artillery on a small platform above the entrance of the cave. Fortunately, it seems that the number of operators of these weapons is only a standard number, and they will be replenished soon after they are not worried about killing one.

Moreover, these weapons that obviously should not appear in private hands also show that the people stationed here are not good law-abiding citizens. Because both artillery and machine guns are weapons that need to be strictly controlled, theoretically speaking, it is absolutely impossible to be manipulated by these gunmen who seem to be ordinary people.

So after seeing these weapons, Lawrence also breathed a sigh of relief, although it is reasonable and acceptable to cause harm to some innocent people when facing the overall situation. But for most people, it is always a stressful thing to take the initiative to hurt the innocent. Fortunately, it seems that the situation should not be so bad now.

"Boom—" Just when Lawrence and the others were in position to move and assigned their respective tasks, the scheduled time had already arrived. Then there was an explosion from across the hill. For a moment, the team member of the assistant at the entrance of the cave subconsciously turned his head to try to see what happened behind him.

"Bang—" Seeing this, Lawrence immediately aimed at the head aimed at the crosshair as planned and pulled the trigger of the rifle in his hand. Because of the noisy echoes formed in the surrounding valleys, the gunshot was so smoothly hidden in the echo of the explosion just now that most of the people stationed at the entrance of the cave did not hear the gunshot.

The second gunner on the platform at the top of the hole noticed that the gunner next to him was approaching him, and thought that his companion had fallen or wanted to joke with him, so he turned his head and wanted to say something. But in the end, he saw his companion's eyes wide open with a terrified expression. There was a blood-red bullet hole in the middle of his forehead, and blood was gushing out from it.

Seeing this scene, the second gunner immediately rushed to the side to pull a rope beside him. But when he was in the air, he suddenly felt something flying into his left eye, causing a sharp pain, and then took away all his strength and consciousness.

After watching the two gunners at the gun emplacement being shot dead by himself without alarming anyone, Lawrence slightly raised his hand and waved a piece of red cloth in his hand. After seeing the signal he sent, the team members who had already descended to the flat ground quickly activated their magic props to summon the Phantom Horse, and then rushed towards the entrance of the cave.

At the same time, Lawrence once again focused on the guards at the entrance of the cave. Then he started aiming at the machine gunners in the fortifications on both sides of the hole and started shooting. Although he used a single-shot rifle with a drop action, his body strengthened by extraordinary power allowed this rifle to shoot at the rate of fire of a semi-automatic rifle.

In addition, another priest of the Agricultural Church who used a magic crossbow also shot at the guards in front of the cave with the weapon in his hand. The last gunmen were knocked down one after another, and they couldn't even fire a few bullets with those machine guns.

In the next few minutes, Lawrence and the priest provided enough long-range precision fire support for the charging team, successfully preventing the heavy firepower from causing damage to the charging teammates: they easily killed The gunmen who approached the machine guns or artillery tried to fight back.

When his teammates successfully occupied the entrance of the cave, the team led by the druid also cleaned up the sentries on the other side and Lawrence and the others successfully joined together. Then they took over the long-range support task in the hands of Lawrence and the others and began to set up blocking positions, while Lawrence and the others went to the cave to meet their comrades.

After everyone gathered, everyone began to release their own magic or some magic props for reconnaissance. There are all kinds of mechanical gadgets, some movable statues, and even incorporeal existences like the phantoms of monsters summoned by Lawrence.

"Okay, let's go in. But everyone better stay vigilant, because the people inside must know that we have come." After waiting for a few seconds to confirm that the detection methods did not find any danger, the paladin of the Fortune Church He shook the shield in his left hand and said, then lowered his head and raised the shield and rushed into the cave first.
