Chapter 181: The Flame Demon Army
Ling Jian stepped onto the front line of the battlefield, and at this time he was completely sleepy - the scene he saw in front of him when he woke up just now really scared him, and he still has palpitations in his heart until now!
Indeed, just like Teacher Xu Piao's understanding of Ling Key, Ling Key's sleep quality depends on his sense of security. Although this is the wilderness, it is still the front line of the battle with the demon army, but the demon hunters and army soldiers in a camp around him give Ling Key an incomparably thick sense of security.
If it weren't for the crystal in his chest that suddenly burned hot and woke up Ling Key, I'm afraid he really needed Teacher Xu Piao or Angelina's gallop to rescue him in order to survive, right?
It's the Demon Crystal...... Ling Key pressed the crystal at the mouth of his heart through his clothes. Since the Flame Fortress incident, this demon crystal, which was the core of the incident, appeared in his arms without warning!
Ling Jian wanted to give it to Old Dakker or some other higher-level witcher, but he always forgot about it every time it came to an end, and this dark blue crystal seemed to exude some kind of mysterious and unique charm, which made people reluctant to abandon it.
Ling Jian knew that this was probably some kind of spiritual interference function of the Demon Crystal. Because he positioned himself as a master, Ling Jian was not too keen on improving his strength nowβfor him, it was enough for him to be able to protect himself with his strength. That's why Ling Key was able to stay calm in the face of the temptation that affected him at this moment. After a long time, I let it go.
The only problem is that this crystal contains too much power to fit into storage, so it can only be stored close to the body. Ling Jian was worried that someone would recognize the true face of the crystal, so he kept hiding it under his clothes.
But this time, it saved its own life!
After coming to his senses, in order to hide his horror and embarrassment, Ling Jian blatantly killed the Flame Burst Bear with a tense face, and then did not hesitate to obey the orders of the captain of the Night's Watch and join them in the battle formation.
Of course, this is also a knee-jerk reaction in Ling Key's panic - the conditioned reflex developed when he was in the new barracks.
"Yo! Well done, Ling! Walking up to their former companions, they greeted each other without any sense of detachment, "Finally willing to wake up and fight?" β
Ling Jian grinned a few times, and his tense nerves relaxed slightly. Then came to the captain: "This time my position is ......"
"As always, the choice is yours!"
"Alas, let's fight on the front." Ling Jian sighed, "I didn't bring a test bench, so the means of support are limited, so it's more efficient to fight directly." β
"Unexpectedly, there is still a time when you are not prepared?" The captain looked at Ling Key with a surprised expression.
"Hehe, it happened suddenly, I didn't expect to be pulled to this place!" Ling Jian complained slightly, "I'm still planning to spend the weekend." β
"Tsk, it's always unpleasant to see your lazy appearance!"
Ling Jian chatted with them familiarly as he walked towards the outside of the camp.
While the demon hunters had the leisure to chat, the soldiers of the army who were fighting together were not idle at all, and the sound of countless guns and cannons was dense and echoed like a tide. The soldiers didn't fight in silos like the witchers, they all acted in groups, and they rained fire on the demon legions with a variety of light and heavy guns.
Except for a few fish that slipped through the net, the vast majority of lava demons have been blocked and defeated by this barrage so far.
The barrage is like a sieve, screening out the real demon powerhouses - the demons who can break through the barrage are the targets of the demon hunters.
This is not difficult for "real" high-level demons. This is because the demon race is highly resistant to bullet attacks.
Basically, a centurion-level demon can ignore a normal level of bullet shots.
At this time, at a glance, in the entire battlefield, only those flame demons who were burning all over their bodies, like flame giants, could break through the barrage blockade 100%. As for the large number of lava demons, only a few of them managed to make it to the occasion, and almost all of them were by luck.
This is also normal, because in this demon army, only those "Flame Giants" are the real demons - one of the largest races of the Abyss Demon Race, the Flame Demon!
This demon legion is also known as the "Fire Demon Legion", and as the name suggests, it is an army composed of the Fire Demon as the absolute subject. But at this moment, what people saw was a massive number of lava demons, and a few of them, less than two hundred fire demons.
These fire demons are the protagonists of the legion's army, and the lava demons are just their "summons".
This is the natural ability of the Volcanic Fire Demon, and it is precisely because of its ability to summon a large number of lava demons that the Fire Demon can become one of the largest races in the Demon Realm. In every Demon Realm, the Flame Demon Legion is also the largest - every Fire Demon clan is a legion!
The Flame Demon is a high-level demon race, and they are normal adults to be centurion-level demons. Combined with this ability to summon lava demons, any fire demon is worth an army.
The one who came to crusade against the camp here this time was such a fire demon tribe.
One thousand-commander, two thousand-commanders, and nearly two hundred centurion-level fire demons...... The full combat strength of a medium-sized clan constitutes the main structure of the legion; Then fill it with a massive amount of lava demons, and that's the essence of the demon legion that stretches as far as the eye can see outside the camp.
Therefore, in order to completely defeat this wave of attacks, the human race has to do very simple - just kill all the key fire demons, and the remaining huge amount of lava demons will automatically collapse!
The racial nature of the Firefiend is common knowledge that almost every Demon Hunter must master. People are naturally aware of the situation at this time. Therefore, after quickly stabilizing the situation, a tacit understanding was immediately formed between the demon hunters and the army.
A large number of lava demons, handed over to the soldiers and the guns in their hands. And the real demon powerhouse is the one who does their job by the demon hunters.
The demon hunters have formed battle teams according to their studios, and many people work together to deal with a fire demon and ensure that nothing goes wrong.
At this time, Ling Key and the Night Watch were no longer satisfied with this passive inefficiency mode. So they are ready to take the initiative!
The Night's Watch has the largest number of witchers, and it's also the number one studio, and this glory and pride makes it impossible for them to be so passive.
The so-called demon hunter must be "the one who hunts the demons". They are hunters, the best hunters! Hunters don't need to make way for their prey.
Not to mention...... The captain looked at Ling Key, who was walking in the team, and we still had a "trump card"!
Ling Jian didn't think about it so much, facing the terrifying number of demon legions in front of him, he still had a calm expression on his face, calmly observing the situation on the entire front around him.
After all, as long as that Captain Ten Thousand and the two Thousand Commander-level guys didn't come over, then Ling Jian had nothing to worry about.
"But...... I'll talk about it first," Ling Jian suddenly turned his head to look at his companions beside him, "This battle will kill people, please be aware of it." β
Hearing Ling Key's warning, everyone couldn't help but look nervous - what Ling Key meant was that this time he couldn't cover everyone, and asked them to protect their own safety.
Only when it was really dangerous would Ling Jian say such a thing.
But the young night watchmen immediately calmed down, without the slightest fear. They had already come to their senses - for the Witcher profession, life and death were commonplace!
If you are afraid of death, don't choose this path.
Although they, like Ling Key, are demon hunters who have just graduated from the boot camp. However, they have long been ready to realize that they will die in the battle with the demons.
Half of those who didn't make it to the boot camp did so because they died before they graduated!
In the boot camp, there is never a shortage of real battles.
Ling Key stopped talking nonsense and took the lead with the captain of the Night's Watch and walked outside.
