Chapter 529: Reinforcements
Diego quickly pulled the trigger and blasted at the Doomsday Guard who flew towards him, the fastest of them had already flown in front of the tree, but due to the dense foliage, he misjudged Diego's hiding place, and plunged into Diego's left about two meters to the left. The tree's sturdy branches flapped violently against the demon's outstretched wings, tangling with him.
Diego didn't even look at him, but fired two shots in front of him, the bullets piercing through the foliage and blasting the two Doomsday Guards who were coming at him in the face.
Watching the two rotten corpses flap their wings in vain and whirl to the ground, Diego turned around and shot the doomsday guard who had just broken free from the entanglement of the branches.
In fact, he had seen the Ereda Warlock who had popped up, but he ignored it, believing that his animal companion would protect him.
Sure enough, just as he expected, just as the Warlock of Ereda could release the shadow arrow in his hand, a ferocious beast jumped out of the shadows by the door and pounced on the demon from the side.
In all fairness, this Ereda Warlock was not careless, in this chaotic battle, he was still careful enough to bless himself with an evil armor spell, and in general, this spell combined with his own tough demon skin, ordinary attacks could no longer hurt him.
But in front of this beast, which weighed hundreds of pounds, these protective spells were not enough. While these protective spells temporarily protected him from the big cat's fangs and claws, they could not counteract the inertia of the beast's heavy size and rapid speed. Before he could react, Ereda Warlock was thrown to the ground in an instant.
The big cat crushed the demon warlock under him and bit wildly, its sharp claws slicing like lightning, almost swinging a phantom. The demon kicked desperately, struggling fiercely, trying to unleash a spell to free himself from his doom, but the big cat's attack was so ferocious and furious, like a small boat that could capsize in a monstrous wave at any moment, he couldn't keep his concentration at all, not even a simple howl of fear.
Under Guan Haifa's stormy attack, the demon's talisman spell finally ran out of energy, and with a soft "pop", Guan Haifa's claws cut through his unprotected face like a dagger cutting into butter.
The demon let out a terrible wail, but the next moment, the wail stopped abruptly. The big cat opened its bloody mouth and bit his throat with one bite, holding all the sounds in it.
Guan Haifa shook his head vigorously, his sharp fangs moving through the demon's body like daggers, slicing the muscles, tendons, and blood vessels in his neck. When the big cat finally stopped, the Ereda Warlock had already stopped breathing, and his entire severed neck was hanging weakly, and the whole person looked like a rag doll that had been torn apart.
"Well done, man!" Through a heart-to-heart connection, Diego couldn't resist giving a thumbs up to his animal companion. He moved his gun and knocked the last Doomsday guard to rush under the tree.
To tell the truth, the speed of the demon's destruction was completely beyond the expectations of the demon commander, and just as Diego raised his gun to continue supporting the war command room, a rumbling roar rang out somewhere in the throne hall that he couldn't see.
"Damn fools, can't you just let me sit on this big comfy chair a little longer?!"
Who else could be a demon who could shout in such a tone but Kurul?
Diego quickly shifted his gun and aimed at the left edge of the door leading to the throne hall, although he couldn't see it, but Diego knew that just inside that door, a little further to the left, was the king's spacious and luxurious throne, which was decorated with a golden lion. Yes, "big comfortable chairs", in that hall, worthy of the word, nothing but the Golden Throne.
Sure enough, soon, a huge abyssal decapitation sword came into Diego's sight.
"Two steps, two more steps!" Diego's heart couldn't help but thump a few times, muttering to himself. For hunters, Kurul is definitely a worthy target. Although it is not at the level of the Black Dragon Onexia and the Dreadlord Varimasas, if this raid is successful and Kurul can use the fragments of the Dragonlord's Blade to completely open the Dark Gate, this credit will definitely promote him from Doom Guard to Doom Lord! At that time, his status will be on a par with the low-level Dreadlords!
Diego steadied his breath, quietly expecting to add another layer to his list of prey, but it backfired, Kurul didn't rush into Diego's shooting range, and just a few seconds later, his voice rang out again.
"You guys, go see what's going on at the gate?"
Diego wondered, what was going on? Come on! Let's hurt each other! Is this cowardly? Is this still the Doomsday Guard, known for its ferocity and brutality?
However, he soon understood what was going on, because in the direction of the corridor leading from the throne hall to the fortress gate, there was a sound of a neat army advancing, and the Stormwind defense troops led by General Marcus Jonathan had finally arrived!
"Dense formation, slow progress!" Diego heard Marcus' loud voice shouting orders, "Archer, release!" ”
Immediately afterward, Diego saw a dense rain of arrows "whooshing" through the throne hall, interspersed with the wails of the demons who had been hit by the arrows.
"I hate failure! Damn Kilis, how did he guard the gates! Kurul cursed angrily, but he was angry, he didn't forget to command his army, "Gather everyone, don't look for anything, and defeat these humans first!" ”
His order was quickly carried out, and a few seconds later, a dull trumpet sounded throughout the palace, it was the demons summoning hands.
Diego couldn't help but snicker. For a quick raid tactic like this, the more important thing to do is to concentrate all your forces and crush the enemy's resistance with one blow with the power of Mount Tai! Instead of the kings and generals who had not yet taken care of the war command room, like Kurul, they couldn't wait to start dividing their forces to find something. This approach is simply self-defeating, now it's okay, the defense forces of Stormwind City have rushed to support, and if the stalemate lasts for a while, if the paladins of the Cathedral of Light and the court mages of the mage district rush to support, the demons are afraid that they will not even have a chance to escape!
In fact, this is not the first time this phenomenon has occurred among the Burning Legion. All the while, soaked in the flesh of demons. Although the evil energy in their bodies and blood brought them great strength, it inspired them to fight and kill. Desire. But at the same time, it destroys their sanity and self-control, making them chaotic and manic. The high-level demons are better, but the mid- and low-level demons are almost all funny. It's better than when there is adversity and predicament, and the pressure brought by a strong enemy can also make them focus their attention on the battle, but once the situation gets better, the demons who get carried away will start to let go of themselves, all kinds of waves, and it is not uncommon for the fighters to be delayed because of all kinds of strange shows, and they are capricious, which is simply the truest portrayal of them.
Comparatively speaking, Kurul is already considered to be sober-minded among mid-tier demons! If it weren't for Diego's unexpected arrival and the fact that he had seen through the demons' disguises and fought all the way in to support, they would have already completed their goal and patted it. Fart. All that will be left for humanity is a shattered palace and the corpse of a king! 2k reading web
