Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Uneasy Routine Plays Cards

The Abyssal Lords, the scientific name of the Abyssal Lords, are a powerful demon race that Kil'Gardan recruited for the Burning Legion to conquer and destroy the universe, and although it was Kil'jadan who recruited them, it was Akmund who gave them the power to become killing machines and use all kinds of cruel means to induce fear in their enemies.

Unlike Nasrezm, who was known for their cunning and insidiousness with their willingness to conspire, infiltrate, and manipulate mortal civilizations, these Abyss Lords preferred to conquer and destroy other worlds in a more straightforward way, by killing, tormenting, and crushing all resistance that stood in their way.

This demon was born for slaughter and tyranny, which made Akmund very pleased with his masterpiece. Any enemy who stands in the way of the Legion will be the target of torture by these Abyss Lords. However, it would be a mistake to think that Ann Helland was a bad-brained demon alone, as these behemoths often enslave the lower demons of the Void and use them as cannon fodder to attack other civilizations, much like the Scourge did. And these big guys are a veritable spellcaster's nightmare, as they often use a kind of Cerberus to search for unscrupulous spellcasters throughout the universe to find the source, which will not only make it possible to kill the poor and hateful guy directly, but also locate civilizations worthy of destruction for the Burning Legion.

The leader of Ann Holland, and one of the most feared of them all, is Manolos, known as the "Destroyer", but this evil Abyss Lord has been beheaded by the heroes of the coalition not long ago, and even his soul has been absorbed by Illidan.

These massive Abyss Lords are the high-ranking commanders of the Burning Legion. Possessing great strength in their own right, and possessing a ferocity and ruthlessness commensurate with it, perhaps wholeheartedly endorsing Akmund's approach, they are willing to obey the Burning Legion's orders, and make destroying everything the most enjoyable thing to do, and the goal of their life's work.

Azgalor, Manolos' deputy, after learning the news of Manolos' death, although Akmund wondered how that stupid waste died, he did not hesitate to directly appoint Manolos to take over his position as adjutant, and his colleague also became the supreme commander of this army of demons and undead. Underneath Azgalor there are also senior commanders who are one level below it: Kazloga the Doomsday Guard, Nasrezm Anaseron, and Reki Winter, the Grand Lich who has taken over control of the undead army. These high-ranking demons and undead are the command of this entire army.

But what Edlan, who came to "inspect" the front line, did not expect was that the "four **oss of the Battle of Mount Hyjal" actually appeared at the same time! And they did not come for a walk or "inspect" like him, but to attack! What an unsettling routine...... Edlan, who muttered dissatisfaction in his heart, was very painful, he changed "history" and killed the two big demons according to the routine, and also armed Illidan, and also had so many high-end combat power of mortals, it was reasonable for him to be reasonable.

But he couldn't figure it out, whether it was Nasrezm, who liked to engage in conspiracy, or Reki Donghan, who succeeded Tikdios to lead the army of the undead, they were all like demons like Ann Heran who liked to be straightforward and abrupt, and they went into battle in person! This is not magic! Moreover, he was still in the army of the undead in the other direction, and Edlan also found the figures of Kel'thugad and Arthas! And in addition to the original Death Knights, there were also a group of orc undead and orc death knights who were obviously different from other undead...... Among them is the Grom Hellroar!

Thrall, who doesn't have an engineering telescope, hasn't noticed this yet, but Edlan is already twitching in the corners of his eyes and screaming that it's not good, why was Naozu caught in some pigtails again? Shouldn't they be slamming the Burning Legion hard? Why did they pee into a pot again?

However, it was fortunate that the undead forces under the direct management of Arthas did not crowd with those large armies, after all, they were a little too far behind, and they were far from their turn to act. So now, only a few high-level demons of the Burning Legion have moved, and the appearance of those high-level demons is also very high-profile, and a wide and thick "Frost Road" suspended in mid-air created by Reki Donghan, carrying another group of cannon fodder troops and the incapable commander of the Abyss Lord, these demons are following the "Ice Bridge" that "appeared" in mid-air little by little, and the extension direction of the bridge is the frontline position where the condescending Edlan is located!

At the same time, with the appearance of these Burning Legion bosses, the cannon fodder of the demons and the undead began to glow with a stronger offensive!

No matter how unbelievable the appearance of those high-level demons was, just standing on a high slope and looking down from above, although it was not the first time that they had seen a similar scene, the charge of those inhuman legions attacking from below was indeed full of shocking power. I just saw it with my eyes, and the overwhelming black tide seemed to be like a famous painter directly splashing black paint on the emerald green canvas, allowing the paint to rush and pollute the canvas, staining it into a cloudy patch.

Everything on the green earth has been shrouded in darkness and death, and the dense and tightly packed but unexpectedly uniform movements of the demons and the undead not only do not make them collide with each other and kill each other like the "idiot" undead controlled by Arthas, but this march as if a person in action deeply shocked everyone who was looking down the hillside.

Edlan, who couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, thought that if those monsters were humans, even the most physical troops and well-trained troops would not be able to turn from a random attack like an enemy to an army that was completely integrated from command to execution!

The armies of demons and the undead were not afraid of death, even if the flames rushed out of their feet and burned them

Shapeless, it becomes like something even uglier, even if the frost falls from the sky, frostbite and freezes them in place, they would rather tear off or cut off the frozen parts directly than use their stumps to move on, they don't feel pain at all! Or it is the extremely accurate sniping from the rangers, the eyes of those monsters or hit some fragile joints, but this does not prevent those monsters whose eye sockets immediately become monsters with soul fire and demon fire, through the undead vision and demon vision, they don't have to worry about running into their own people, not to mention, they are controlled through the spiritual network, under the absolute command, they don't need to think and judge at all, they just need to follow the order to move forward, forward and forward......

As the enemy approached, Thrall and some shamans, Adran and other priests also took action, and those chosen undead and demons made protective gestures and let the light and lightning appear out of thin air...... One demon fell, three demons filled its void, one undead was purified, and four or five undead poured out of the gap! Nothing could stop them from moving in unison! Nothing could stop this black tide that seemed to be swimming against the current!

Perhaps it was precisely because of the enemy's performance that made people feel terrified, in the perception of mortals, they had never seen such a monster in their entire lives, even veterans who had experienced the ravages of the plague of Lordaeron and the battle of Quel'Thalas, at this moment, they couldn't help but realize again that they were facing an existence that was completely different from the living and mortals.

And after this consciousness gradually turned into fear, something inevitably happened, the rangers who occupied the high platform, two young people because they could not bear the pressure, even pulled their bows completely when they opened the bow! They themselves were bounced by the reaction force of the bowstring, and their faces were covered with blood, which was very terrifying. But fortunately, it didn't hurt the vital point, and it was quickly helped to the rear.

"Boom"

The mortar shells were very clever in exploding into an area densely populated by the enemy, and the effect of the explosion of gunpowder was considerable, and the demons and undead in that area were visibly slowed down! But before the dwarves who controlled the mortars could breathe a sigh of relief, after the smoke cleared, the fat, tall body full of fragments and holes came out, and the legs that had only bones left and a piece of flesh that were relatively well stitched together had no intention of stopping.

Through the special engineering glasses, the dwarves could even see the action of the surviving abomination, a mixture of red, green, and black liquid flowing from the wounds, like some kind of sour mucus that had touched them. The dwarves could even smell the kind of corpse, rancid, and fishy stench that could only be smelled on the battlefield after a brutal battle, even if they felt that they were on a high ground and seemed to be in an upwind position, which did not prevent them from inducing olfactory feedback through visual sighting.

Perhaps it was this disgusting feeling that kept adding weight to the fear, and the scales that represented the normal heart in the hearts of the dwarves began to tilt. Mortar squads are reloading faster and faster, not because practice makes perfect, but because of fear. Fear makes them want to speed up their reload and cannon speed up to three times faster than usual!

"Boom Boom"

The high-speed reloading speed does make the mortar more powerful, the "fireworks" caused by the explosion of gunpowder explode, and pieces of minced meat are blown into the sky along with the flying dirt, although the efforts of the mortar team do not change the speed of the march of the demons and the undead, but this instant visual effect makes Adlane feel like he is watching some Hollywood war blockbuster!

"Boom"

The rapid firing of shells on the high platform stopped abruptly, in exchange for the explosion of gunpowder that should have fallen on the enemy's head!

Blown up? Other shells were killed?

That was Edlan's first reaction, and he immediately cast the Fountain of Light on the unrecognizable, smoke-filled platform, hoping that it would save the unfortunate ones.

Hadurun Mingyi burst out of the smoke, and there were many people behind him, which made the others feel better, even if they were all blown black, but there were no obvious external injuries, and they could escape from the high platform, jump down and other lively actions, it means that they are not too much of a problem!

After paying attention to the situation on the high platform for a short time, Edlan shouted to Gianna who was casting a spell on the side with a solemn expression, "Gianna, can you burn it?"

In the face of Adelan's headless shouting, Gianna knew very well that the other party was referring to the "Ice Bridge" that was approaching, and she tried to use the combination skills of the mage, calm and leisure, and fire explosion!

Like a dragon's head-sized fireball roaring out, as if it was about to evaporate all the air around it, leaving a burning mark in the air, and under Gianna's continuous spell casting and control, it flew nearly 300 yards away and slammed into the "Ice Bridge" that was stretching over!

The strong explosion is like a bright firework, and the conflict between fiery red and ice blue makes this "firework" more gorgeous. The Flame Burst technique succeeded in blowing up the first few yards of ice, but the impact on the entire bridge only made it shake slightly, and not even the cannon fodder at the front did not cause much damage......

It turned out that seeing such a gorgeous explosion effect, Edlan was still very shocked, at such a distance, Gianna could actually control the fire explosion technique, and the power was not small! But after he saw the final effect, his face was a little ugly, and when he wanted Gianna to do something, he found that the latter was already very uncomfortable and crushed an expensive mana crystal to replenish his magic power.

Gianna doesn't even have the magic to use the awakening?!

High-power spells consume mental power so much?

Edlan had to change his mind immediately, now was not the time to hesitate and try, after he blasted a few punishments at the enemy, he pulled the herald and said hurriedly: "Go and call Kael'thas, Sylvanas, Ronin, Winlessa, Modra, and Shantis, and tell them to bring the strongest ones who can fight with us, we will be in big trouble soon!"

The herald stumbled behind Edlan's push, then pulled out his flare gun and fired three red flares into the sky!

I hope Crassus or Valastaz can solve the problem quickly and come and help......

"Sal!"

“...... Huh?" Sal struck a chain of lightning bolts, successfully turning the ghouls and hellhounds that had lost their effective long-range suppression into charcoal, and he turned his head to see the human general who was greeting him not far away, and he asked angrily, "What's the matter?"

"That's it! You let your warriors go first, you take the strong with you, the strong ones who can deal with those high-level demons! and the ranged units and the troll's spearmen are left!"

"What? did you let the warriors of the tribe escape?' Sal originally wanted to say this, but when the words came to his lips, he also knew that now was not the time to fight for a breath, and he also clearly felt the coercion brought by the high-level demons, besides, after losing the fire suppression of the ranged units on the high platform, the enemy who came up from the hillside alone had made this place absolutely impossible to hold on, and only by withdrawing, re-occupying the favorable terrain and converging more strong men could it be possible to defeat the enemy.

"Good!" Thrall's reply was crisp, and he immediately ordered some of the Kukaron guards to retreat from both sides of the mountain road to make way for the middle road, while others went to help rescue the survivors from the explosion on the high platform.

Edlan didn't pay attention to Sal anymore, he couldn't even give more support to the people on the high platform, he had to make the next order right away, he yelled: "Erigor"

"I'm here, General!" said Erigor who had just rotated to the third row, stabbing several ghouls to death in quick succession, barely relieving himself when he heard Edlan's cry as he retracted.

A bunch of heavily armored soldiers lined up so tightly that Edlan didn't even know who he was looking for, so he trotted over and casually applied a new set of augmentation spells cast by heroic paladins to the soldiers who were still fighting.

Then, Edlan didn't talk nonsense, and said directly: "We are going to withdraw, after the heavy armor palace, alternately retreat, I will arrange remote support." You are not allowed to retreat from the front line of the high platform until all the wounded are gone, understand?"

After Erigor took a few steps back to allow another comrade to take his place, he turned around, pulled back his thick mask, stood with his feet together and saluted, and replied cleanly, "Yes!"

There are no grandiose words, no guarantees and oaths, Erigor only has two simple words, but these two words make Edlan feel the other party's promise and determination, if there is really a wounded on the high platform that cannot be evacuated, he will definitely let the heavy armor soldiers die in this place......

What a clumsy man, but a real man!

"Gianna! Gather the mages, we're going to cover them!"

Gianna, who had recovered a little, nodded, and immediately communicated with the other mages, and then those battle mages used awakening spells one by one, ensuring the control and damage of the enemy, while also allowing people to get enough time to quickly recover their magic.

Adlan pulled another soldier who was a little confused by the series of orders, and he said, "You, yes, you, tell Haduron to call all the rangers who can fight, they need their support at the front!"

"Uh, general, general?" the soldier was visibly stunned, he didn't expect him to act as a herald at all, he was just a logistics staff who came with the follow-up troops, and was commissioned by a dwarf to come here to the forefront to find some parts that had just exploded and fallen.

"What are you doing in a daze?

"General, general, who is Hadurun?" This soldier is already messy, he doesn't know that person at all, he can't just take orders and slip away, right?

"It's okay, General Edlan, we're ready. Haduron's voice was heavenly, and Edlan waved his hand to dismiss the soldier with a wave of relief.

Adelan looked at the many rangers in front of him who were all injured, all of them were disgraced by the explosion just now, but their determined eyes did not show any wavering at all, even when they were about to face the high-level demons of the Burning Legion, they did not have the slightest expression, but the well-hidden anger against the culprits who destroyed their home could be glimpsed in their eyes.

"Okay, then you can choose a place and get started. Anyway, Edlan "brushed buffs" again, fortunately, he paid enough attention to this situation and prepared a lot of spellcasting materials, otherwise he wouldn't have tired him to death if he "brushed buffs" back and forth...... Which of those "buffs" like "afterlife" does not last for a long time?30-60 minutes is the norm. Not like now...... 10-30 minutes is the norm.

The paladin's heart is bitter......
