Chapter 873
Gneus's humanistic care has not stopped since the beginning. The demon army had now been cut off, and because of their large numbers and narrow roads, they were all crowded together, so the cannonballs were almost all direct hits, each of which killed a large area. The demons who were drowned in the artillery bombardment are now dead and alive.
But the demon striker who escaped did not collapse because of this. On the contrary, because of this scene of blood and fire, and the desperate situation where the retreat route was completely cut off, it became more excited and furious.
The Demon Heart's previous pistol shot only added to their anger. The enemy was right in front of them, and the bloodthirsty desires that had been suppressed for nearly 10,000 years made them completely ignore the grenades that kept exploding in their midst.
The dense spears stretched out by the Valkyrie Legion seemed to them to be non-existent, and they crowded each other like this, not dodging to let those spears penetrate their bodies, and slammed into the strong iron wall-like front.
But that kind of scene where the flesh and blood are dripping very quickly did not happen as they wanted, not because they didn't want to, but because they couldn't do it. Every demon was eager for blood to rush forward, so those demons who rushed to the front, under the resistance of the Valkyrie's defense line and the constant pushing and shoving of the companions behind them, instantly crowded like cans, not to mention waving the huge weapons in their hands, and even leaving no room for them to raise their hands.
Therefore, this battlefield, which should have been a fierce battle, suddenly became similar to the scene of the Spring Festival, and the two sides wrestled with each other, using this most primitive and untechnical means to break the opponent's front.
"Sisters, hold the line!" shouted Sif who had joined the defensive formation, crunching his neck. Although none of the Valkyrie Legion took the initiative to retreat now, under the powerful impact of the demons, they were pushed back by more than ten meters.
After the demons dissipated the powerful kinetic energy brought by running, they finally entered the stalemate stage and stopped, but even so, the defensive phalanx formed by the Valkyries was still pushed and slowly slid backwards.
The creaking sound of the rubbing of the armor made it feel sore to listen to it, the extreme crowding caused their bones to be overwhelmed, and they protested with great pain, and in more serious cases, they were squeezed to the point that they could not even breathe.
Sif knew that the enemy was outnumbered, and once his defensive formation was broken up, the enemy would be like a tiger entering a flock, and when the time came, let alone fighting, they would rush in and trample themselves to death.
"Ahh The soldiers in the first row were so tightly pressed that they couldn't move at all, but the fighters in the back were holding their spears and stabbing forward one after another.
Therefore, when the two armies are fighting in formation, although the structure of the spear is simple and simple, and it is not as attractive as the two-handed tomahawk and the big blade, its practical value is much higher, at least it does not need so much space to play a role.
Bang bang bang... It was the Hearts warriors behind the Valkyrie Legion's battle line, firing the cover they had promised earlier. Their evil grenades have been thrown, and now they can only take advantage of the gap between the crowd to keep firing their guns at the demons, hoping to do their part to help the goddesses relieve the pressure.
Unfortunately, all these methods were in vain. Because the demons in the first few rows were actually already dead, either stabbed to death by the Valkyrie's spear or killed by the cold gun from behind, but their bodies did not fall, because there was no space.
Like a meat shield, they were pushed forward by the demons behind them, fending off the enemy's attacks by the way.
Squeak, squeak, under the competition of these two huge forces, even the shield forged by Asgard's technology constantly emitted the sound of transformation, and even the Valkyries' powerful physiques had a time to reach their limits. The soldiers of the first platoon who greeted the most powerful impact were crushed and broken by the bones of their arms.
It's not the kind of fracture that happens in a moment, but it breaks a little bit under the slow squeezing, and the pain can be imagined. Now they can only stick their severed arms and shields to their chests, and use all their strength to stiffen there.
Damn, it won't last long. Sif struggled to look up at the top of the rift in the formation, isn't Evenson's side over yet?
Although Sif has been in the army for a long time, he has not actually fought a few battles decently. She had been Thor's direct courtier, and she was more of an adventurer when she went out to fight than a warrior. It's a place where it's relaxed and romantic.
This is the first time she has participated in such a positional battle in which the two armies face each other against each other. And of all wars, positional warfare is the most brutal and difficult. What's more, now he is facing a powerful enemy like a demon. So even she was very anxious in her heart.
And now that the Demon Heart Warriors have shot all the bullets, they have to transform into demonic forms to join the defense, but they have no heavy armor and shields, so they can only put their hands on the Valkyrie's back to help them add strength.
And the same is true of the female demons brought by Rorty, giving up their usual so-called elegance and beauty, using their most disdainful brute force, gritting their teeth and pushing the Valkyries in the back and back.
The battlefield is truly a magical place, where he can easily tear apart a race, but it can also unite different people. At the beginning, Sif and the others didn't believe in these female demons at all, and they had no intention of using their powers, but now they didn't hesitate to give their backs to them, and they didn't think about whether they would be bad.
But even so, it still can't change the situation that I am retreating a little bit now.
"One more time... Just a little bit...", when everyone was at full distance, destroying Moroti, but standing alone behind the crowd, with the help of his height advantage, stared at those eyes nervously, carefully observing the distance of the retreat of the front.
"Good... A little more... This is it!" Rorty muttered with sweat on her face, and when she saw the demon advance a little further, she smiled exaggeratedly and without image. She raised a hand and snapped her fingers crisply.
It was a crisp sound on the battlefield, and it was drowned out in an instant. On one side of the mountain, suddenly a small stone shook and rolled down, smashing on the head of a demon.
This didn't attract anyone's attention at all, not even the demon that was smashed. We were first shelled, then blackened and blown up by grenades, what is there to pay attention to this little stone ... it!
However, after this stone rolled down, more and more stones fell, and they became bigger and bigger, and finally the rock explosion collapsed and broke down, turning into a rolling stone landslide.
The demon army that was advancing with all its might was completely caught off guard, and it was too late to do much or more, and it was directly swept away by these falling rocks.
"Whew..."Rotti breathed a sigh of relief, touched the cold sweat on his forehead, looked up at the landslide and said, "Thank you so much, Mother Sagas..."
And where the mountain broke, a strange figure appeared, a little taller than a normal person, but covered in brownish-yellow chitin carapace, and a row of scythe-like bone wings behind it. Judging from the slight height of her breasts, she should be a woman, but the face of this female demon is not good-looking, especially the mouth, which is not so much a mouth as an insect.
She is none other than Sagas, the spider queen of the Evil Rift.
She was one of the few high-ranking demons in this rift. And as the Queen of the Spider, unlike Agatha, she was qualified to become the Rift Lord after the Eredar Twins left. Unfortunately, she failed in the competition with Grimmondas, and had to succumb to it.
"Kill them all, behold, dear, I will avenge you and the children!" Sagas shouted as she stood halfway up the mountain, and many half-human spider demons instantly appeared beside him, and she spewed out a strong green venom downward.
The demons who had just been stunned by the landslide were drenched in the venom, and before they could react, they turned into puddles of pus in pain under the extremely corrosive venom.
Sagas watched the scene happily, a fire of revenge burning in her eyes.
Since she had once competed for the position of lord, and the voice lord of Hormondas, the body was very large, and the heart and eyes were indeed small. After he came to power, he naturally took focused attention to this old opponent.
Not only did she send Sagas and her people to the edge of the rift under various pretexts, but she also burned her original lair. This is for revenge or for deterrence, the law of the jungle has always been the truth of the legion.
But Sagas couldn't accept it, she could bear to be betrothed, but what she couldn't bear was that when the nest was burned, there were still a large number of hatchlings inside, as well as a few nests of spider eggs that she had just born.
After that, Hormondath brutally murdered her dear spouse. The flames of hatred in her heart burned like the flames that burned her lair, and they never stopped.
So when Agatha approached her and proposed to work together to kill Hormundas and re-usher the Ereda Twins as lord, she agreed without even thinking about it.
It doesn't matter who is the lord, but Grimundas must die!
So in the first few days, she had already led some of her elite men, secretly lurked back from the exile land, and hollowed out half a mountain to ambush, just waiting for the signal to cause a collapse.
"Rorty, I'll leave it to you here!" Sagas viciously moved her mouthparts and turned towards the upper reaches of the rift, "Which fool am I with, and I still have a blood account to settle!"
As a result of this sudden attack, a vacuum suddenly appeared in the advance of the demon army, and the pressure on the Sif and her sisters suddenly decreased, and although the enemy would soon make up for it, they had already spotted the gap.
"Sisters, forward!" Sif ordered. All the warriors immediately pushed forward, and the warriors in the first row struggled to lift their shields. When his hand was broken, he kicked it with his foot, and he used all his strength to resist it, and at this time he forced the demons back a lot, and at the same time stabbed forward with his spear.
Then he retracted his spear and lowered his shield to advance, and after resisting the demon, he lifted his shield and stabbed forward again.
And in the process of this cycle and again, the Valkyrie Legion not only advanced slowly, but also became more and more energetic and excited, whether it was a shield or a spear thrust, it became more and more powerful.
And the reason is in the spears in their hands, they are the first Valkyries to be baptized, as the elite of the elite, and the weapons in their hands are the same as Sif, they are weapons with special magical effects. Drain the blood of enemies in a kill to replenish your stamina and heal your injuries.
In the process of their continuous march to kill, the injuries they had just suffered in defense, as well as the newly broken arm, had recovered, and the physical strength they had consumed had fully recovered.
It can be said that as long as the killing does not stop and the spear does not break, these Valkyries are perpetual motion machines on the battlefield.
Now after the Valkyrie launched a counterattack, the situation on the battlefield immediately reversed. The demons were constantly forced back, the Valkyries were constantly advancing, and the positions that had just been lost were slowly being recaptured.
At this time, there was a sharp whistling sound in the air, and countless huge demon bats flew over from the sky, and they swooped down from the sky, either to put the eyes of the demons, or to simply fly away with them, and then fell from a high place.
"The situation is getting better and better!" Cross wiped the sweat from his head and let out a long breath, seeing that the people on his side began to fight back, and there was air support, he was suddenly elated and eager to try, "Don't stop me, let me rush out and kill this group of bitches!"
Cross had already spread his wings and was about to flutter out, but thanks to a few of his men who stopped him, saying that you should not go out and make trouble if you wait and see for a while!
But the good times didn't last long, and a roar came, and a tall figure slowly descended from the sky.
"He's coming..."After seeing the demon that was more than five meters tall, covered in brown and yellow with a scarlet tongue and huge wings, Rorty immediately looked like a great enemy, "Doomsday Leader... Guarding Ziros. ”
The reason why Rorty hesitated for a moment was because although Zros said that it was possible to be promoted to the Doom Lord, he had been stuck on the edge and had not been promoted, but his strength was beyond doubt.
I saw that after he fell on the battlefield, he walked forward slowly with a sense of oppression, holding a dark red long sword in his hand, and slashed all the demons in front of him.
"Sisters, a strong enemy, ready to defend. Sif also saw that Ziros was different from the enemies just now, and immediately stopped his advance.
"Haha..."Ziros laughed maniacally, but suddenly stopped, and stopped outside of Sif's defenses. Hearing only a click, a large hole suddenly opened in his waist, no, it would be more appropriate to say that he opened a large mouth, and a large amount of flames spat out from it in an instant.
"Ahh
The first line of defense, which was as solid as a rock at the onslaught of the demon army, was now immediately precarious. And just when Zoros was ready to make persistent efforts and stride forward to break through the line.
But the whole person was suddenly stunned, and looked up at the top layer of the rift in disbelief, "Is there a mistake, Lao Tzu just appeared?
The other demons also appeared decadent at this time, standing in a daze, "Alas... Gone, gone, no fighting, no fighting..."
It didn't look like it had gone through a life-and-death battle, but it was like a group fight and it was over, and some of them turned around and shouted something at Sif, which Rorty translated, "Sisters, you guys played well, you have a chance to come again..."
At this moment, at the very peak of the rift, the huge and hideous body of Hormondas, crashed to the ground, and the one-eyed that was intact, although it had lost its lustre, could still be seen to be full of unwillingness.
