Chapter 496 Locusts

Creak~

Rows of heavy crossbows on the walls of Town Sand Pass were simultaneously cocked, then the battle cultivators manning them adjusted the shooting angles.

Sharp crossbow arrows pointed towards the firmament.

All of these city-defending heavy crossbows were first-tier magic artifacts, requiring cultivators to control their firing. With a long range and formidable power, they could easily penetrate black iron armor within a thousand steps and possessed the ability to break spells.

A single heavy crossbow wasn't terrifying, as the shot crossbow arrows could even be evaded by ordinary monster beasts.

But when their numbers soared to hundreds or even thousands, the killing force of their volley fire was undoubtedly extremely dreadful.

For hundreds of years, untold numbers of Sand People met their end under such heavy crossbows.

However, today the battle cultivators of Dayi were facing an innumerable swarm of giant locusts.
