Chapter Forty-Nine: The Siege of the Corpse

However, Zhao Hong knew that it was useless to think about it now, as a soldier, there was no way to decide his own fate. It's better to be fully prepared, and in the event of an accident, try to save your life.

The four members of Zhao Hong's team had just left Xia Haoyu's room and were about to make some preparations when the alarm of the redstone supply base sounded.

The faces of the four changed abruptly.

"It's coming, it's faster than expected, I don't know how much strength the corpse demon has gathered to deal with us. ”

"Let's go, let's go and assemble, and we'll see. ”

Zhao Hong's team quickly rushed to the periphery of the base, on the wall of the redstone supply base.

Along the way, many ordinary Obsidian Empire soldiers were seen gathering at the basement entrances in various places within the supply base, entering the underground space inside the supply base in batches.

The underground of the redstone supply base was originally a deep mine, but after it was dug through, it became a shelter.

However, there are also drawbacks, one point that the warriors above failed, and were broken through the defense line by the corpse demons, and these ordinary soldiers hiding underground are a large mass of food for the corpse demons to devour wantonly.

Even the hope of scattering and fleeing was completely extinguished.

But the above arrangement also makes sense.

Because some corpse demons can fly.

In fact, with the evolution of the corpse demon, the more advanced the corpse demon, the closer it is to the human form, and the species that could originally fly will also lose the ability to fly as the appearance becomes humanized.

Of course, there are some exceptions that have evolved into both human and human forms.

At that time, Xia Mengwei, the winger, jumped down from the cliff and killed a corpse demon with wings, and became famous in a battle, so he got the title of winger.

But this is a very small minority, and those who can generally fly are low-level corpse demons.

But even low-level corpse demons, these ordinary soldiers in charge of construction are not opponents at all, and they can only be used by mermaids.

The three of them stood on the wall, and everywhere they looked, there were all black corpse demons, mountains and seas, completely connected to the sky, and it was impossible to count how many there were.

But conservative estimates, it is also more than 10 thousand.

Seeing this posture, the soldiers who were originally standing on the wall relaxed a little.

Because these are low-level corpse demons, they haven't even turned into human form, and even if they do, they are only slightly humanoid, similar to this kind of low-level corpse demons, how much it is in vain, even if they rely on their numerical superiority to crush the defense of the supply base, they can't hurt the eighty warriors on the wall.

If these eighty warriors were determined to flee desperately, unless it was millions of corpse demons who launched a suicidal charge desperately and consumed these eighty people alive, these corpse demons would not pose a threat to these warriors.

But in fact, these corpse demons with a little wisdom will also feel fear, as long as eighty warriors charge and slash and kill, the rest of the corpse demons will definitely not dare to step forward again.

These corpse demons did not attack the redstone supply base one after another, as everyone imagined, and destroyed the supply base in one fell swoop.

Instead, he slowly walked to the vicinity of the redstone supply base and surrounded the redstone supply base.

Then the corpses slowly dispersed, revealing five people.

These 5 people, hidden in the corpse demon group, were originally very inconspicuous, but at this moment, they firmly attracted everyone's attention.

5 people, standing between so many corpse demons, is very abnormal.

The first thing that comes to everyone's mind is that these 5 are not humans, but corpse demons.

But the humanoid corpse demon, which is also the enemy of all corpse demons, will be attacked by all corpse demons, and try to devour it in order to evolve itself, which is an instinct.

Then everyone thought of a rumor that the corpse demons had evolved again in recent years, and the high-level corpse demons had a certain degree of control over the low-level corpse demons.

In the past, it was just a rumor, and although it was very credible, it was still a rumor.

But now that the facts are in front of everyone, this is no longer a rumor.

This also means that in the past, even if the human warriors didn't do it, the corpse demons would kill each other and reduce their numbers, but such a good day is gone forever.

The 5-headed humanoid corpse demon is still far away from the redstone supply base, and it seems that he still has some scruples about human warriors, even if there are thousands of troops around him, he doesn't dare to get too close.

"These 5 corpse demons, the strongest one, is an emperor-level corpse demon, with a level of more than 200 times strengthening, which is not much different from me, but I have rune equipment, so I can suppress him, and the rest are king-level corpse demons, but the strength is very high, and the worst is also 150 times strengthened. ”

At this time, only the people of the Obsidian Empire's military were left in the redstone supply base, and the supreme commander was Fang Cheng.

Fang Cheng's 220 times strengthened strength is also the most powerful one among everyone.

Now Instructor Fang Cheng has given his own judgment, there is 1 emperor-level corpse demon and 4 king-level corpse demons, and all of them are strong.

"So what do we do now?"

"Defend, wait for reinforcements, but we defend normally, we can't defend, our number is too small, but the corpse demons are all over the mountains, and they have surrounded us, if we defend normally, then the ordinary soldiers behind us will be all over." My idea is that attack is not as good as defense, they have a numerical advantage, but we have 100 excellent elite warriors, 100 of us gathered together, directly entered the encirclement, and killed the 5 leaders, and the corpse demon group naturally dispersed. Because there were no such low-level corpse demons around our supply base, they must have traveled a long way from other places to assemble, it could not be a whole, once they lost their leader, they would naturally retreat, and they didn't dare to fight with our 100 elite warriors. ”

Everyone felt that what Fang Cheng said made sense, but they all had a difficult face and didn't dare to respond.

It's no wonder that high-level corpse demons are notoriously tough in battle.

If they are all at the same level, relying on rune equipment, they can still repel the corpse demons, but they are only repulsed, not killed.

However, if the level of the corpse demon is much higher than his own, often more than a dozen warriors besiege one, and they have to pay a heavy price to kill the corpse demon.

Now, 5 corpse demons of such a high level, 100 of them will go, and the whole army will be wiped out, and they may not be able to succeed.

Seeing everyone's faces, Fang Cheng just sighed in his heart, and then said: " This raid, I took the lead, I tried my best to block the 4 corpse demons, you have to kill the emperor-level corpse demon before I can support it, at the very least, but also to cripple him, although the corpse demons are now united, but I think it is all because of the emperor-level corpse demon suppression scene, once the emperor-level corpse demon no longer has a deterrent effect on other corpse demons, then the rest of the corpse demons will definitely want to get the flesh and blood of the emperor-level corpse demons, let themselves evolve, especially the king-level corpse demons, this kind of flesh and blood attraction, almost instinctual existence, irresistible。 Once we succeed, we will win, and no matter how bad it is, the next defense will become easier, and we can buy more time and wait for reinforcements sent from above. ”
