Chapter 70: The Bloody War, the Death of Demacia (3)

April 13, 2837 in the Valoran calendar, Federated States of Demacia, Super Barrier Pass

This is the seventh day that the Super Barrier Pass has been besieged by the Void Forces.

Since most of the long-range heavy weapons in the Super Barrier Pass were destroyed, Demacia's archers and mage troops have been fighting for two days and two nights in a row.

The first to fall was the mage troops, and on the fourth day, the mages themselves were limited by their weak physique, and most of the mage troops were tired and collapsed, but no one flinched, they were gritting their teeth and persevering, until they fainted on the city wall after both magic and spiritual power were exhausted. When the long-range heavy weapons on the Demacian side were destroyed, in order to support the continuous suppression of the long-range troops, after Galen's order reached the country, the first batch to reach the front line was a large number of magic crystals of various attributes, as well as a large number of arrows.

By the fifth day, there was also a large attrition of the archers, and none of the archers who were carried off the city wall had their hands intact, constantly pulling the bowstring, alternating their hands, and the five fingers of the two palms had long been worn out and even exposed Bai Sensen's phalanges.

On the sixth day, when the last unconscious archer soldier was carried off the city wall by the logisticians. Groups of Demacian soldiers armed with spears, swords, and shields silently climbed the top of the city, and stood densely and neatly behind each battlement.

Since the seventh day, the head of Demacia has been a bloody white-knuckle battle scene, one by one Void monsters have been climbing hard, many scythe monsters are only a few meters away from being able to touch the head of Demacia, but they are stabbed by a 3-meter spear, and finally fall, and in the process of falling, many climbing void monsters are involved in falling with them. The first to break through the line were the shovel monsters on the back of the Scythe Monster, who used their thin bodies and nimble bounces to leap into the walls with a few strokes.

Looking at the flesh and blood body in front of them with a fragrance, the short shovel monsters grinned with big mouths full of fangs, a trace of saliva flowed from their mouths, and excitedly let out a strange laugh of "chatter ~ dish ~~", their happy mood was less than three seconds, and they suddenly found that the sky became dark, it was a giant shield falling from the sky, slapping these 1-meter-sized shovel monsters on the ground, and then these giant shield hands took a half step back slightly, behind them, flashed out of the famous face sinking like water, A swordsman with a long-handled sword. "Hm" "Whew"...... A cold light flashed, and these little shovel monsters who rushed to the city turned into corpses of minced flesh. The miscellaneous soldiers who followed the Hundred Knife Hand quickly lifted their corpses and quickly threw them under the city.

But the good times didn't last long, when the two-meter-tall sickle monsters broke through the defense line of the pikemen and appeared at the head of the city for the first time, they set off a bloody rain, their two sharp forelimbs can not only be used as tools to climb the city wall, but also as a weapon to harvest human life. With each swing, two or even three Demacian pikemen were killed, and seeing the scythes that poured into the city more and more, the swordsmen lined up in a long row, replacing the original pikemen's defenses, and they roared "Long live Demacia!" With a long knife in hand, he slew these void monsters who rushed to the city.

In hand-to-hand combat, either you die or I die. Regardless of the casualties, the Hundred Knife troops fought bravely to defeat the enemy, and finally repelled the first batch of scythe monsters who climbed the city wall, but when the huge body and huge head of the giant centipede monster slowly poked out of the battlements.

All the soldiers of Demacia knew that the time had come for the real despair.

The huge shield phalanx, which had been pressing behind the Baidao troops, began to line up, and quickly assembled according to the instructions of the commander of each beacon tower, and a group of five people formed a "human" shaped pyramid formation, which was lined up in three rows on the city wall more than 50 meters wide.

Every herald standing at the top of the beacon tower raised his right hand, the command flag was trembling slightly, and all the giant shieldmen who had finished the formation were looking sideways at them, staring at them The heralds knew that every time the small flag in their hands was waved, it was when a fearless Demacian soldier fell to the head of the city. Therefore, their hands were trembling, their hearts were trembling, and when the signal of the flag order from the command tower arrived, these heralds almost all bit their lips and shouted with tears in their eyes. The voice.

The first row of giant shieldmen looked firmly ahead, and none of them wavered in the slightest.

Directly in front of them was the head of the Super Barrier Wall, where there was no return, and it was also the direction in which the Void invaders were heading.

Behind them is their hometown, where there may be parents who remember them, and maybe there are lovers waiting for their return.

They understand that only by repelling the aggressors in front of them with their chests can they hold up the thoughts of their relatives with their backs and keep the expectations and survival of the country.

"Demacia! Banzai!! ”

"Demacia! Banzai!!! ”

……

On the city wall that stretched for dozens of miles from east to west, slogans that shocked the heavens and the earth sounded one after another, just like the candles that burst when the candles burned out, the giant shieldmen troops, with their lives, painted the most heroic blood-colored totem on the offensive and defensive battle on the seventh day of the super barrier.

All the Giant Shieldmen of the Dreadnought Vanguard Legion, 35,000 men, were killed.

Their sacrifice brought at least three times as many Void monsters to death, and all the Void monsters that arrived at the head of the city, as well as the Void monsters that continued to climb on the city walls, were all wiped out under this round of suicide attacks.

After learning that the giant shield unit of the dreadnought vanguard legion directly under General Galen was completely annihilated, the more than 40,000 archers who had only rested for half a day, regardless of the fingers that were still dripping blood after being bandaged with white cloth and bandages, all silently carried the giant bow on their backs and came to the city again to assemble.

The commander of the mage unit, Lux, who was the first to wake up from the coma, and the commander of the archery unit, Vayne.

The two went to the command tower together, stood in front of Galen, and asked to leave the station at the same time, but Galen refused.

Lux has both admired and feared this brother since she was a child, and Galen's direct refusal without explanation made Lux dare not ask anything.

But Wayne, as Galen's colleague who has known him for many years, dares to confront him.

"Your Excellency, my troops have all been wound treated, and they have had half a day of rest, and now they are completely ready to fight! I don't understand your decision! ”

"I've already said no. After three days, the archers and mages were able to ascend the city again. ”

"Lord Galen! Although you are a great general and the supreme commander here, you must also give me a convincing explanation! ”

"In three days, the large teleportation array in our rear can be erected, the newly produced long-range weapons can be delivered to the battlefield, and the reinforcements from the Imperial City will probably arrive on that day. Your two units, as the most important ranged units, cannot afford to suffer casualties within three days. We'll need to hold on for at least 15 days before the War College reinforcements arrive. These reasons are enough, right? ”

"Not enough!! So what are you going to do in those three days? Is it like today, with the lives of your direct troops? Gallian! Don't forget, your Dreadnought Vanguard has no ranged units at all! Do you want them all dead? What will you do when you return home? ...... the Light Shield Family's side"

Wayne's tone was even more angry, and he didn't even add any honorifics and began to call Galen by his name.

"Enough!! Say no more! Galen interrupted Vayne with a shout of rage.

"Guards! General Vayne disobeyed the military order and took her to the rear, not allowing her to appear on the front line without my orders. Lux, Galio, the two of you escort the guards with you. If General Vayne dares to resist, you two should know how. ”

"Brother...... General Galen, this ......" Lux hesitated.

"Execute the order immediately!"

Watching Galio and Lux send Vayne down the city with the guards, Vayne was still arguing angrily, but Galen's face did not change in the slightest, he silently turned around, picked up his giant sword called "Storm" from the weapon rack, and walked down the command building step by step.

Poppy, who had been standing by and watching quietly, without saying a word, also grabbed the huge hammer engraved with runes from his side, followed Galen, and walked to the front line on the city wall.

The heart of the Valoran continent, the location of the War College, and the area of the Crystal Hub Teleportation Array.

The valley has become a large construction site, hundreds of workers are transporting huge stones back and forth, and a circular stone platform with a diameter of more than 20 meters is almost completed.

On the top of the valley, two people stood, watching the busy scene of the workers from afar.

"Master Ruiz, in about two days, this large teleportation array should be able to be used, right?"

"I'm afraid not, I asked Aatrox yesterday, the teleportation array on the academy's side can be activated, because there are enough gray robes left behind. But the teleportation arrays on Demacia and Noxus haven't been activated yet, and we won't have to wait until our two reinforcements and the Grey Robes arrive. ”

"I remember the last time Tyrone sent a message back, saying that it was another five days to travel, right?"

"yes, the team on Jax's side should be faster, and Noxus will be there in two days. The mountains in the Demacia region are the highest in the Valoran continent, and Tyrone will definitely be slower. ”

"Hey, it's time, I hope it's in time!"

"Master Yi, speaking of which, what has Chen Yin been doing these days? During the day I knew he was going to give classes and teach the students about the battlefield, but I couldn't find him at night? I've heard that someone saw him in the dean's office before evening, did he go looking for you? ”

"No, I've been on the Hub Teleportation Array lately, and I barely went back to the academy."

"What have you been doing lately, kid? I'll have to ask when I get back today. ”

The two people above the valley are the two vice presidents of the War Academy, Master Ruiz and Master Yi.

As for Chen Yin, who they were concerned about, he happened to finish the last class of the afternoon for the students. Seeing that it was still early, he stopped and went to a garden behind the dean's office again, after these days of exploration, Chen Yin already knew that there was something strange here. He secretly followed a few gray robes, and found that after those people entered here, it was as if they had disappeared, and Chen Yin had been lurking until late at night and did not see them come out.

Later, Chen Yin tried to explore this place in a different way, he first showed the nameplate and entered the dean's office building, and after walking around the office building, he walked around the back of the building, ready to walk directly into this garden that did not look strange. As soon as he walked into the forest path, he was stopped by two gray-robed soldiers and a team of soldiers wearing pure black armor, the gray-robed guardian Chen Yin had seen many times, but these soldiers with the same style and different colors as the armor of the War College Guards were the first time they had seen them.

"Who are you? How is it that the most important office area in the War College is that of you with swords and blades of unknown origin? Two gray-robed seniors, don't panic, I'll accompany you to catch them!! ”

Chen Yin put on an offensive posture, pretending to be righteous and awe-inspiring, and preemptively reprimanded this group of black-armored soldiers.

After the two gray robes glanced at each other, one of them seemed to recognize Chen Yin's identity, so he kindly reminded him, saying that this area belonged to the special area of the academy, and this group of soldiers was also guarding the special area, not an enemy. In addition, this area is forbidden to any teachers and students except for the dean and several vice deans, and he hopes that Chen Yin will leave here as soon as possible and not cause unnecessary trouble and misunderstanding.

Chen Yin was waiting for this kind of step, and after taking the opportunity to apologize, he slowly withdrew from here, and in the process of retreating, his eyes looked around, silently remembering the number of people in this group, as well as the locations and areas where they were hiding.
