Chapter XXIV

The moment the shield was breached, the dark gold demons in the city expected that they would be hit by ferocious fire.

Overseer Shank quickly moved his headquarters to a pre-dug underground cavern, hoping that the thick layer of demonic earth defenses above his head would help him keep the swarm at bay.

Fortunately, this behavior still played a certain role, although the entire cavern was constantly shaking from the moment the first cannon fire of the swarm bombarded into the city, but it still did not collapse directly.

Wisps of dust kept falling from their heads, and the heralds outside kept sending them all kinds of bad news.

The way the insect swarm attacked finally allowed these dark gold demon leaders to see what "fire coverage" was, and within half an hour of the shield being destroyed, they had already received the news that more than forty demon squadrons had been wiped out.

The Seven Demon Lords are above, that's a full 100,000 demons!

If this continues, I'm afraid that the other party will be able to blow up the Purgatory Fortress alive just by bombing!

"What about trebuchets and fire crossbows? Let them give me a hard fight back! ”

Shank angrily yelled at a demon goblin who had just rushed in to report the news, the herald had just brought a chill in their hearts - the demon forces at the head of the city had suffered heavy losses in the bombardment, and the demons under the city walls had been blocked from reinforcing the city by the fierce bombardment of the other side.

In other words, the demon forces in the city are now unable to get any reinforcements.

Once the other side starts to launch a frontal attack after the bombardment, with the remnants of the city, I am afraid that it will not be long before it can be built!

Shank was almost mad, and he had used every means to try to throw power at the walls, but the swarm bombardment was not only intense, but also extremely accurate.

In particular, the orange-yellow acid cannonballs were used to smash the stairs leading to the castle as if they had eyes, and even if they used the Hell Siege Beasts to throw troops on the walls, they would be quickly interrupted by the flaming missiles flying from high in the sky.

There are also those flying monsters like big moths, and there are so many of them that the long-range demons in the city can't suppress them at all.

And these monsters are not only numerous, but also very delicately coordinated, Shanke really can't figure out, how on earth can they fly together in hundreds or thousands without slowing down or even changing direction at the same time?

Do they all have the same brain?

The offensive of the enemy's main forces has not yet officially begun, and they have been beaten so badly with long-range firepower and air forces alone, how can this battle be fought?

It can now only desperately order the war machine units in the city that are long enough to fight back desperately, in an attempt to neutralize some of the swarm's firepower advantage.

However, the next sentence of the herald's demon goblin shattered its illusions, only to hear the short, ugly fellow say to Shank in a panicked and frustrated tone, "My lord, our war machine troops... It's all gone......"

"What?" Shank was stunned for a moment, and slowly turned his head to stare at the demon goblin, hoping that this guy was just joking, and then it would shove it into the ruminant's stomach and shoot it out as a cannonball.

"We no longer have the means to fight back from range, and the last group of ruminants has just been bombarded by concentrated fire from the opposing side... Now it's a big hole......"

The demon elf cautiously uttered the bad news, then took two steps back, ready to teleport away as soon as something went wrong.

I'm afraid that the mood of this group of dark gold bosses is not very good now, and it doesn't want to stay here as a punching bag for them to vent their anger......

“......”

The demon goblin's repetition caused Shank to fall silent for a moment, its ugly and massive body trembling slightly, as if it was caught in some difficult choice.

Just as the atmosphere in the entire cave gradually fell silent, another demon fairy teleported into the cave.

In a panic, it shouted at Shank and the Dark Gold Demons, "The enemy is attacking!" There are so many of them! It's all over the place! ”

"All sections of the city are asking for reinforcements, and they won't last long without reinforcements!"

The second herald's words made the atmosphere in the cave start to be a little noisy, and all the dark gold demons began to talk to each other in private, and some of the guys had a mysterious light in their eyes.

The Evil Pact still stood in the corner, huddled together, talking to each other in a very low voice.

"Why hasn't Wren come back, can he do it?"

"Who knows, it's him who will come out with this......"

"yes, we've all persuaded him."

"The Spencer family has not had a good time this time, and he must be in a hurry."

"Hey! The broken family is broken, and what is it like to turn over and be the master? ”

"yes, I guess he's a ghost under the knife of Lacanos now, right?"

"Shhhh All silent! Look for death, you guys! Is that adult's name so you can scream? Don't take me if you want to die! ”

“......”

There was a pause in the crowd of Legendary Cultivators, and the man who had just mentioned the King of Despair shrunk his neck, a layer of sweat breaking out on his forehead.

After waiting for about ten seconds to see that nothing was wrong, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and continued the discussion.

"Whether Wren can make it or not, we'll have to find another way, I don't want to die in this hellish place where birds don't......"

"What I'm saying is that this group of demons didn't have a good heart at first glance, and when the time comes, they will definitely be the first to sell us when they go to the battlefield, and we can't be sold and help people make money......"

"Otherwise, let's run when the war starts, just scatter and run, it's better to run a few than to wait here and be sold by them."

"Run? Where to run? The way back to the other world is in the hands of those professionals, and it is impossible to go back to hell, where is there a place for us in this entire second world? ”

"This ......"

The Evil Covenant who made the escape suggestion was speechless for a while, they had not yet reached the transcendent level, and in this second world where there was no grass and black rocks, they would not have survived long without logistical support.

Rather than being slowly dying of thirst and starvation at that time, it is better to die directly now!

In the midst of the conversation between the Dark Gold Demon and the Legendary Evil Pact, a third Demon Fairy Herald teleported in.

The expression on its face was not as frightened as the first two "colleagues", but with a hint of joy.

"Commanders! That grown-in shot! It is now on the southern wall, and it has suppressed the first wave of the enemy's onslaught! ”

"What? You said the adult made a move? Are you sure? Shanke suddenly woke up from his trance, and asked the demon goblin with a look of surprise on his face.

"Definitely the one! Because it's just too strong! ”

The demon elf nodded affirmatively.

"Great! Walk! Let's go out and have a look! ”
