Struggle in the Steam Age

Nora vigorously attacked the giant monster in front of her, trying her best to limit the range of action of the giant monster. Because she knew that with the size and combat power of this monster, once it entered the main battlefield, it would definitely become a natural disaster. Not to mention that the opponent is likely to land on land and enter the city. If this is the case, the entire island will be destroyed.

But she also knew that unless she could think of a way to kill the monster below, otherwise, everything she did would only delay some time at most. Therefore, while she was attacking the monster, her brain was also running rapidly, trying to find a solution to the current predicament.

Theoretically speaking, if this thing has a core, the little puppet can completely destroy the monster by directly attacking the core, but because the monster is surrounded by a thick layer of flesh and blood full of chaos and death power, she even It is impossible to determine whether this existence has a core, let alone trace where the core of this monster is hidden.

"Nara, I have a question to ask you." Just when she was extremely anxious, Lawrence's voice suddenly came into her soul along the connection between the two souls. "Can you feel the defense of this monster now? Or can we use ordinary weapons to kill this monster?"

"Ordinary weapons should be able to cause enough damage to this guy." Nora, who was directing the silver-green light around her body to crazily cut through the monster in front of her, replied decisively. "However, the opponent's recovery ability is too strong. It may only take one breath to recover the injured part."

"If this is the case, I think I have a way to try it." Lawrence said after asking about the current situation. "Now I can destroy most of the monster's body in one go, and then you can sense the location of the core from the opponent's body and launch a fatal attack."

"But this method actually has certain risks." After talking about the benefits of his own plan, Lawrence also pointed out the flaws on the other side of the plan. "If the monster in front of me doesn't have a core, then this attack will definitely be in vain, and it may make the monster appear directly behind the city."

"But we don't have any better options now, do we?" Nora said after listening to Lawrence's analysis.

"The superhumans on the island are already entangled to death by the sahuagin superhumans, and they can't get reinforcements here at all. And if we don't do something, the monsters will be mastered within ten minutes. The blood flowing from the battlefield is directly attracted to the urban area. In this case, we have no other way."

"And based on what I saw inside this giant monster just now, I can basically confirm that this monster has a core." Nora frowned and said quickly after recovering. "Otherwise, it would be impossible to have a human-like core inside."

The reason why Nora was able to draw such a conclusion is because the appearance of many things in the extraordinary world can accurately describe their own characteristics, and this is especially true for creatures with divine nature.

For example, if the monster in front of him really resembles some kind of homogeneous aggregate, then the inside of the sphere of flesh and blood should be very uniform, instead of something that obviously looks like a core inside as it is now.

"Okay, then you follow my instructions." Lawrence walked into a pocket cave that looked only five or six square meters at this time, and in the corner of the cave was a small hole that was obviously newly dug. An adult male thumb-thick lead protrudes from the hole. "You lead the monster to the entrance of the bay now, and leave the rest to me."

In terms of combat, especially in battles with enemies related to divine power, Lawrence naturally trusted Nora's analysis 100%. Since the little puppet thinks that the monster must have a core, then it is enough for him to do all the things he should do according to the plan.

"Understood." After listening to Lawrence's order, Nora immediately tried to make the monster follow her by attacking. And this monster obviously only had the intuition of some beasts, so it immediately chased after Nora, the little puppet who had been flying in the sky and causing a lot of damage to itself, without being attracted by the smell of blood.

"It feels like this should be caused by the improper use of some supernatural item belonging to the evil god." While attracting the monster, Nora said to Lawrence.

"There is a mass of human-shaped flesh and blood in the monster's core, which means that this thing was probably a sahuagin at first. Later, it became what it is now after obtaining a certain extraordinary item."

"But judging from its current performance, this guy doesn't seem to use the power in the extraordinary item to exert enough power as he imagined. Instead, he is controlled by the original power in the extraordinary item."

In the end, Nora concluded, "Because this monster, as long as it has a brain, shouldn't follow me without hesitation like it is now."

"Isn't this a good thing?" Lawrence took out a lighter from his arms and said to Nora. "This enemy is strong enough from the perspective of its extraordinary power. If it is as smart as humans, then I think it is more appropriate for us to run as fast as possible to ask for help at this time, rather than trying to kill it here. it."

"You're right, this is indeed a good thing." As Nora spoke, she used all the magic she had mastered to attack the side of the monster facing the coast. "I feel like some blood is already flowing along the waves from the main battlefield. Fortunately, we are one step ahead."

Because of the changes in the sea situation, Nora stepped up her attack at this time. As large pieces of the monster's tentacles were cut off, the monster's movement speed suddenly increased. If in the past the speed of the monster was walking, then now the monster is running.

"Get ready, the monster should pass through the entrance of the bay in about 30 seconds." Seeing the monster revealing more and more tentacles as the water became shallower as it approached the coastline, Nora was a little nervous to contact her through the spiritual connection. Lawrence informed, "Seize the timing of the detonation of the explosives."

"Understood." At this time, Lawrence had already lit two torches with the lighter on his body, one of which was inserted by the side for backup, and the other was in his hand, ready to light the fuse in front of him at any time. The fuse in front of him was actually composed of dozens of strands, which were divided into dozens of strands after five or six meters into the stone wall, and each strand was connected with explosives.

This was actually prepared by Lawrence and the others when they were preparing for the war. During the inspection before the construction of the shelter, the troops who were transferred found that the rock faces on the cliffs on both sides of the entrance of the bay facing the sea breeze were more weathered. , So he informed Lawrence, the Supreme Commander, of the news.

After getting this news, Lawrence, who originally planned to set up a trick, naturally would not let this opportunity pass.

So he ordered the engineers who built the bunkers to build the bunkers a little bit back to avoid those dangerous areas. He also ordered the engineers to build a batch of small caves on the cliff and inside the cliff, and then filled those spaces with the explosives he had prepared along with some of the mortar shells he had stored in the astral space before.

According to the original plan, the batch of explosives would be detonated after the group of sahuagin broke through the entrance of the harbor. Then use the broken stones to cut the sahuagin army in two.

It's just that what I didn't expect was that the enemies that were going to be targeted before had been killed by the monsters summoned by the enemies themselves, and now the explosives needed to deal with the unexpected monster.
