Wanted to make some quick money.

However, now revisiting that information and seriously considering the difficulty of dealing with Ying Shien, his stomach began to ache.

Damn it, there was no time to be angry.

Jangpangs mood was reaching a peak of tension.

The name Luo Gi felt familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere else besides the information given by his employer.

Suddenly realizing something, Jeang Pong quickly opened a ranking list and upon seeing it, he was shocked.

What the hell? Rank 137.

This Luog was actually ranked ahead of him by several positions.

Under normal circumstances, such a small gap in rankings wouldn't matter to Jean Pong.

In most cases, players ranked higher than each other were usually quite close in strength.

For example, if the first and second ranked players fought, the deciding factor might just be who had better luck as the difference in strength was essentially negligible.

But at this moment, he became very concerned about these few ranks.

A result of the increasing psychological pressure making him overly sensitive to such things.

Decisively climbing up the lookout tower set behind the ancient city wall, Jean Pong looked outside with a mix of tension and anxiety.

His tribe's location was relatively good, adjacent to a small river and surrounded by woods, ensuring fresh water and wood resources early on, and he could occasionally catch fish from the river to solve some food issues.

Any player with a bit of sense would choose such a location to build their camp.

However, because of this, following this line of thought, his camp location would be very easy to find.

While his thoughts raced, figures began to emerge from the distant woods.

Lu Gi showed no intention of hiding.

In a siege, one must take the initiative.

What was there to hide? As Lu G stepped out of the woods, he placed a hand on his forehead and made a gesture to look out, estimating the distance to the tribal camp to be about 3 to 400 m.

The camp scale was unexpectedly large, likely comparable to his Iron Wall tribe.

Confirming the enemy's appearance, Jeang Pong decisively raised his right hand, signaling the archers behind the city wall to knock their arrows.

As soon as the opposing players stepped into range, he would shoot without hesitation.

However, Jangpangs calculations were destined to be in vain.

After stepping out from the cover of the woods, Lu Gi, who was 3 to 400 m away, showed no intention of advancing even a half step.

This unexpected situation disrupted Jeanpangs plans and caused him to frown.

Before he could think much further, something appeared to be pushed out from the woods.

A siege weapon.

Jeangpangs first reaction upon seeing it was a siege vehicle for players at this level.

Bringing a siege vehicle when invading veteran players was common sense.

Otherwise, they would be helpless against the ancient city walls.

However, the problem was that in such a siege, although the attacking side found it hard to achieve a surprise effect, they generally pushed the siege vehicle out first with the mindset of advancing as much as possible before the enemy could react.

Lu G's current actions seemed somewhat out of the ordinary to him.

With this thought in mind, Jeang Pong instinctively squinted at the pushed out siege vehicle.

As a modern person, he didn't have high expectations for his eyesight.

Although he wasn't nearsighted, he wasn't particularly good at seeing either.

However, he vaguely sensed that what was being pushed out didn't quite look like a siege vehicle.

Before he could observe further, a sound resembling a bow being drawn echoed from a distance.

Just as the sound was heard, looking at the black that was rapidly enlarging in his line of vision, it suddenly dawned on Jeang Pong, and his face lost all color.

Luog, you son of AB.

Without time to think, in a moment of life and death, Jeang Pong quickly covered his head with both hands on the lookout tower, not even having time to climb down the ladder and jumped directly from the 10- m high lookout platform.

His sudden action startled the soldiers below.

And before Jean Pangs body hit the ground, there was a loud bang, and before anyone could react, the lookout tower he had been standing on collapsed into ruins.

Chapter 194.

overwhelming destructive power.

His body crashed heavily to the ground after falling from a height of 10 meters.

Some people died from such falls while others survived and Jeong Pong clearly belonged to the latter group.

However, this fall still left him disoriented.

Every part of his body achd, gritting his teeth, Jeang Pong gasped for breath as he struggled to stand up, his gaze falling upon the culprit that had destroyed his sentry tower, a massive arrow magnified dozens of times.

The copper tipped end had obliterated their sentry platform in an instant and traveled a considerable distance before leaving a deep groove in the ground upon impact.

A crossbow.

As a player of this game, Jean Pong had clearly researched various wartime weapons from the cold weapon era and immediately associated it with the ancient siege artillery from his homeland.

The crossbow.

Damn, what kind of international joke is this? The firepower output is on a completely different level system.

As he shouted this, Jeang Pong felt his heart tremble.

But the system clearly wouldn't ti respond to his questions.

All he received was another thunderous boom.

Faced with this weapon of war, the meager defenses of the ancient city walls seemed laughably weak.

The city gates, which should have been sturdy and reliable, were easily blasted open at that moment.

And the squad of shield and axe soldiers standing behind the gates didn't he even have time to react before the heavy crossbow bolt pierced through taking their lives in an instant.

In an instant, the overall morale of the defending troops plummeted to freezing point.

Inside the city gates, there was a dead silence so profound it felt suffocating.

While outside, the invading side led by Lu G and others found themselves in an entirely different extreme.

Haha.

Watching the devastating performance of the triple bow crossbow, Luog was so excited he was ready to punch the air.

If it weren't for maintaining his leader's image, he would have jumped up in joy.

Archers in this era, while ensuring the lethality of their arrows, had an effective range of only about 100 m.

Yet, his triple bow crossbow could launch devastating attacks from 3 to 400 m away.

I can hit you, but you can't hit me.

What could be more invincible than that? Of course, this invincibility came at a steep price.

Deploying a triple bow crossbow cost a staggering 30,000 civilization points.

And that price didn't even include the specialized heavy crossbow bolts.

To be honest, even he felt a bit of sting at that cost.

As for ordinary players without ranks, even if they could afford it.

Whether they could produce one was still an unknown.

After all, although crossbows as siege weapons had existed since the spring and autumn and waring states periods, the triple bow crossbow was only developed during the Song Dynasty.

How many dynasties span that period? The reason Luo Gi could produce this siege weapon far beyond his era was partly due to the golden level design blueprint, which significantly increased his success rate and partly thanks to Yishien Little Fox, a five-star intellect master of weaponry.

Moreover, the triple bow crossbow in front of Luo G was not in its complete form.

The complete version would likely cost even more with greater destructive power and range.

According to Yien, due to their current technology in the armory department, there were still some structural challenges with the triple bow crossbow that they couldn't te overcome.

So, she modified it slightly and created a weakened version first.

When Lu G heard this, his reaction was probably what else could he say? After all, she was a five-star master of weaponry with a golden level design blueprint.

The crystallization of human wisdom from the cold weapon era.

She modified it and produced it.

It was hard not to be impressed.

The attack from the triple bow crossbow continued, mercilessly highlighting the power gap between the two sides.

As it blasted through the city gates, it instantly shattered the confidence of every enemy soldier, including Jeang Pong.

How could they fight now? Faced with such attacks, they couldn't te even put up a resistance.

With every booming sound, their morale suffered devastating blows.

Lu Ming.

Lu Ming.

In a panic, Jeang Pong desperately shouted the name of his strongest general, Chief.

Hearing Jeanpangs call, a middle-aged man named Lu Ming stealed himself and came over.

At that moment, even this fierce general under Jeang Pong s command looked a bit pale.

Each explosive sound sent chills down his spine.

The city walls, which should have been solid and reliable, were now being battered into a state of disrepair by the terrifying weapon on the opposite side.

There was only one dead end if they stayed cooped up here.

The opposing crossbow was beyond the range of their archers.

They couldn't tea attack from a distance.
