After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 742

Each goon grabbed the biggest slave they could get, using them as shields moving forward.

"HAHAHAHAH!" The Guia guards laughed as they entered the scope of the sentries, but without an arrow heading towards him. "The Lord is a genius!"

With a few people leading the way, more and more people grabbed a slave each and used them to safely head towards the walls—at least to a degree.

Sentries worked by sight, so if a target was blocked it would not attack. But could the body of a small slave really cover a hostile force effectively?

Despite the relative success of the plan, there were times when it failed. Even, because many felt overconfident the plan would work, they ended up exposing themselves more to the sentry on another side. This was especially true in areas where two sentries shared a scope!

They tended to forget about it, because territories generally didn’t have the money to have overlapping sentries!

Rather, they had never encountered a territory that had them all over!

Of course, Guia wasn’t hailed as one of the most powerful villages for nothing. First of all, there were plenty of level 20s in this group and while the sentries could cause them some injury, it generally wouldn’t kill them unless they hit a critical spot.

They continued with the plan and just caught the arrows directed at them with slave bodies (wasn’t the first time they did so, they just had to time it more closely in Alterra).

Some even caught the sentry arrows or used their Class D shields to block them. The higher-leveled ones—the ones above level 20—also deflected a few for the rest of them.

When hundreds of people neared the walls, Baltimore created massive earth walls that blocked the sentries’ views. The slaves also managed to distract the battlement guards (and sentries) enough so Baltimore managed to create such a large stair in a short time.

It was wide enough for a few men and their meatshields to pass through. It was also done at an angle that’d block arrows from humans from certain directions.

Something created by Baltimore, a level 30 earth user, was naturally on a different level than the poor flimsy ladder/bridge created by Reno or Althea. It was even better than Mao’s.

Baltimore couldn’t enter due to the rules, but he could definitely help hundreds of his people get inside.

Anyway, this amazing display of skill increased the momentum, and the Guians yelled as they charged forward.

"Go inside!" he yelled, and his men started climbing up the stairs. Baltimore’s eyes reflected the image of his people as they climbed up, ready to cause chaos inside the territory that humiliated them so!

VENGEANCE!

…

"Damn, disgusting…"

Luis and the others, who were guarding this side of the battlement, saw as the large block appeared, giving access to the enemies to enter the walls. Their archers were shooting at it, but it was at a difficult angle where the soil practically blocked their shots. _{freёwebnovel.com}
