Chapter 2636: Attacked (2)
It was an explosion.
The explosion was not as big as the previous explosion that caused the dust or snow to form mushroom shape that could be seen far away.
But it still caused the dirts and rocks to fly around.
“Get up and go on your separate ways!” Fang Sheng Lin yelled to the two scouts and then ran towards the direction where the attack came from. He knew very well that these two people would be nothing more than burden to him.
“Yes!”
The two scouts knew that their presence was redundant, so they ran in two directions. But the basis of their direction was still the south.
They wanted to give report to Minister Yang!
Bang!
Fang Sheng Lin heard the loud voice and looked at the top of the hill once more. Looking at the cannon like weapon, he gritted his teeth and ran to the side to avoid the big ball once more.
But…
BOOM!
The moment the ball hit the ground, it caused a small crater to appear and Fang Sheng Lin was thrown to the side from the impact force.
He was not wearing any kind of protective gears and he could only judge the trajectory of the cannon through his vision. It was definitely not that good, especially because Fang Sheng Lin hadn’t trained in this area for a long time.
There was basically no other long ranged weapon in this area aside from arrows.
And Fang Sheng Lin couldn’t really detect where these cannons would actually hit.
Everything happened so quickly.
’Damn, it’s too close.’
Fang Sheng Lin looked at the top of the hill and gritted his teeth.
The closer he is to the top of the hill, the lesser the chance for him would be to avoid the cannonball. But even if the chance to escape was low, Fang Sheng Lin knew very well that he had to go.
Because if the cannon was not destroyed, the others would not have any chance to escape.
It was his instinct that told him this.
Even Fang Sheng Lin himself would not realize that his terrifying fighting instinct was completely aroused when he saw the cannon that was used against him. It was a completely different danger, but it reminded him of the time when he was still in different world.
’Who said that humans couldn’t defeat weapon?’
Fang Sheng Lin licked his lips and then charged forward once more. His eyes were watching the cannon in front of him intently and he dashed forward without hesitation.
“Shoot!”
The people who were behind the cannon quickly gave order.
“Yes!”
Bang! Swish! BOOM!
Another explosion, and the cannonball pushed over the dirt some distance in front of them while Fang Sheng Lin resolutely avoid to the side.
The cannon itself was not that fast in Fang Sheng Lin’s opinion. He could still avoid it as long as he moved fast enough, but this really tested his reaction speed to the fullest.
The problem was that the cannon would hit the ground and caused small crater to appear. There were many debris that would be thrown up because of this and Fang Sheng Lin could only try his best to avoid it.
’Tsk, if I know better, I would have long asked for a shield.’
Though, it was unlikely for a shield to be able to avoid this cannon. And if this was used in an army, a large number of casualties would be inevitable.
But Fang Sheng Lin couldn’t think so much.
He only knew that he had to dodge when the cannonball coming towards him and then he himself rushed over to the cannon.
Bang! BOOM!
As Fang Sheng Lin rushed over, the cannonball came nearer and nearer, making the dirt hit him and all. But Fang Sheng Lin ignored those and his eyes were focused on the cannon on top of the hill.
Swish!
At the last moment, he didn’t dash in straight lines, but do it diagonally and then change direction after sudden stop. This movement would have been difficult for ordinary people, but not for Fang Sheng Lin.
Other people should not repeat what he did because their speed was unlikely to surpass the cannonball.
Bang! BOOM!
The last cannonball was just a few feet away from him, but Fang Sheng Lin was already nearby at this time. He saw these people and then swung his sword towards them. There was no need for him to change his stance because his instincts completely took over and he only knew that he had to attack them.
It could be said that Fang Sheng Lin’s attack methods were fast and wild, which was one of the reasons why it was hard for other people to defeat him in frontal battle.
Slash! Slash!
“Gah!”
“Do it!”
This group of people had tried their best to use the cannon as fast as possible. Unfortunately, their reloading speed was still extremely slow and for Fang Sheng Lin, who was an excellent martial artist, their movements were simply giving him a chance to get close.
Since that was the case, then he wouldn’t be polite.
Slash! Slash!
The sword in his hand reaped the lives of four people in a moment after he reached the top. At this moment, he saw that these soldiers suddenly throw the fire in their hand towards the box on the side.
Fang Sheng Lin didn’t know what they were doing, but his senses were telling him that it was dangerous.
Without hesitation, he ducked behind the cannon in the opposite side.
And then…
BOOOM!
An explosion happened, followed by the miserable screams of these people who failed to take cover. At the same time, several cannonballs that was placed on the side were pushed back, falling down the hills from several sides.
The cannon itself barely survived.
It was a devastating tactic.
If other people were to see this, they would definitely think that the northern tribe were madman. For the sake of one person’s death, they could even sacrifice the entire team like this.
