Chapter 14. Commander-in-Chief Sawa
The support of the command was fast enough, a large number of support soldiers arrived at the intersections in less than 5 minutes, the original number of garrisons at each intersection was only 5 to 10 people, after this wave of personnel supply, the minimum number of garrisons has reached 12 people.
However, it was too late to make amends.
In this seemingly short 5 minutes, all 15 garrison teams in Pengmai City were killed.
In addition, due to the sacrifice of all the garrison teams, no one destroyed the demons, resulting in the demons wantonly attacking people's houses, resulting in the death of a large number of civilians.
Also, the situation where the demon plant directly attacked the private house.
The total death toll has exceeded 500 in just five minutes.
This figure directly exceeded the average number of casualties at the end of the year in Pommai.
But remember that this is only 5 minutes, and now it's December 25th, and the demonic siege will continue until January 3rd - a full 9 days.
The total population of Pengmai City is only 28,000, including 4,000 soldiers. If the current rate of death continues, the 'crisis in Pom-Mai City' is self-evident.
Moreover, the 'support troops' sent by the command were actually originally used to replace the casualties or to change shifts. So what will happen if all these soldiers come to support the city? Quite simply, there will be fewer and fewer defenders outside the city. Although the defenders have not injured a single member so far, it is only a matter of time, as the fatigue of the soldiers will become more pronounced as time goes on, and the risk of death will increase.
The people in command knew this very well, but they didn't have a choice, because the city could not afford to miss it.
……
With the arrival of the reinforcements, the demon plants that grow on the streets, the magic plants that crawl on the buildings, and the demons that roam the streets and houses are all effectively controlled.
Rescue, pacification, and reconstruction work are also proceeding smoothly.
In fact, the reason why the death toll reached such a high level in 5 minutes was not because the Demon Plants appeared 'too suddenly', and it was not because the garrisons were too vegetable, but because the 'luck value of these garrison squads was too low'.
It's not a joke, it's a real fact.
Because, the situation encountered by these 15 garrison teams that were all killed was almost the same: that is, the next second after they were caught by the demon plant, suddenly a demon teleported in front of them, and then began to kill Wushuang, killing and killing.
That's right, like the Orr squad, was caught, and the captain quickly cleared the siege. Then everyone drank the medicine smoothly and detoxified safely, only to meet the demon, this extremely 'comfortable' situation, it was really lucky.
Of course, the mastermind behind all this luck or not is naturally the devil.
……
At this moment, the demon army located in the north of Pengmai City is still bombarding the defenders in front of Pengmai City. (But obviously, the attack density is 20% less than before, as if it was deliberately letting Pengmai City go)
And inside their barracks, inside the black pyramid, a skeleton mage in black robes knelt in front of the gloomy hall.
"Report to General Zowa, just now, thanks to Lord Brayid's botanical magic, we managed to collect more than 70,000 Basut's dark elemental magic in the past 10 minutes."
"How many are there now?" A huge eyeball floating in the center of the purple magic array made a dull sound.
This is the commander of this attack on Pengmai City, the superior demon: Zuowa.
Sawa is a giant eye demon. The main body is a huge eyeball with a diameter of 1 meter floating in the air. The eyes are emerald green snake eyes, with slender pupils, dark and seeping.
Next to the giant eyeball is a huge 3.3-meter arm (right hand) that burns with black flames and only black bones.
On the top and bottom of the body's eyeballs, there are some accessories that don't seem to be protective at all. The overall shape resembles a 'decorative' helmet.
In the white part of the eye, you can see some tumor-like blood vessels, which flow green blood and swell from time to time.
Sawa wears a pure black cloak on her back, completely covering the back half of her eyeballs. And Sawa's abyssal mouth is hidden on his back.
"So far, 120,000 have been collected. Hey, hey, hey," the skeleton mage let out a creepy laugh.
"120,000? 70 thousand. Well, there is indeed something about this Brayid's plant magic, no wonder Lord Wan Ruoyun trusts him so much that he only sends him over to support. ”
The big-eyed man floating in the air thought secretly, and asked again, "What does the center say?"
"The Demon Hub says that if Lord Brajd continues to maintain his plant magic, then we will be able to withdraw our troops by around 4 pm today. Even from now on, don't kill a single human. We can still achieve our goals."
"Roar?" A dull sound of questioning came from the back of the eyeball.
At this moment, a demon with heavy horns standing in the shadows gritted his teeth fiercely, then turned and left silently.
Sawa didn't care.
The skeleton demon on the other side continued, "According to calculations, at four o'clock in the afternoon, we will collect more than 400,000 basut (dark elemental magic), and within 30 days after leaving, we will complete the target of this mission: 1 million basut."
"yes, okay. Stand down." Sawa's bone claw made a gesture to step back. The skeleton mage nodded, stood up, and floated away.
Following the light of Zuowa's eyes, he moved to Brayid's side.
Brayid is on the right side of Zowa. Like Sawa, there was a circle lit up beneath it: an emerald green circle mixed with black light.
At this moment, the big fleshy worm was curling up on its body, nesting on the circle like a matcha-flavored doughnut. It looks like he's sleeping.
"Brayid!"
"Huh?" The big flesh worm decadently propped up a petal, opened the mimetic eyes on the petals, and aimed at the big eyeballs over there. And slowly straightened up from the magic array, and looked at the eye demon on the opposite side in an S shape.
"You should have heard that." A dull voice echoed through the black hall.
"Well, I heard you," the big fleshworm replied softly. Compared to the depth of the Eye Demon, this one's voice was very light.
"Hmph, in just 10 minutes, you kid got 70,000 basuts, which is really amazing." There was a hint of sarcasm in Sawa's voice.
"Hehe, yes~" The big meat worm smirked.
"Well, to be honest, I kind of understand why Lord Wan kept you all the time. Such a huge number of ranged constructs are indeed not something that ordinary high-level demons can do." Sawa is a high-ranking demon who has been given the position of general, and in terms of demon level alone, he is the same level as Brayid, but because of his multiple positions, he is somewhat pretentious.
