Chapter 140 The army is naturally needed in war
The rolling logs and crossbow machines could not really stop the demons from climbing, and more than a dozen demons passed the attack of the soldiers, and one by one, their excessively thick arms fell on the highest city wall, and their giant-like heads were revealed over the city wall!
Their horns, their fangs, their whole hideous faces were so clear in the light of the torches!
And they also seemed to realize that the crossbow machine was the only means that these humans could inflict harm on themselves, and the dozen or so demons chose to climb the wall in the position where the crossbow machine was placed. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
And as soon as he climbed the wall, he grabbed the soldiers who were operating the crossbow machine too late to fire, and the soldiers who were guarding the crossbow archer, and grabbed these struggling humans with one hand...... It's all in your mouth!
And if there are too many humans in their hands to fit in, they will stretch out their arms and tear these weak creatures into several pieces without any effort!
Mixed with the flowing blood and exposed organs, it is sent to the mouth and chewed, like the best delicacy.
And the attacks of the soldiers fell on them scattered, but they could not cause them the slightest damage!
Illuminated by the crimson of the sky, they really look like monsters coming out of hell...... Powerful and hideous!
“…… Twenty-nine! ”
Xu Ke on the city wall had just killed a demon, and the red spear was stained with the black blood of the monster.
The red light on his body seemed to carry an extremely high temperature, and as long as the monster's black blood was slightly close to his body, it would be evaporated into black gas and dissipate into the air.
But he raised his head and looked around, only to find that the last wave of monsters that had landed in the city had not yet finished killing...... More than a dozen monsters have climbed up the city walls!
Each monster has a rich black gas on its body, and the superposition of the black gas on these monsters almost obscures Xu Ke's entire vision, as if the sky has begun to become dark again!
And behind these dozen monsters...... I don't know how many of these monsters there are.
The spear trembled slightly, and I didn't know that the spear spontaneously trembled in Xu Ke's hand because of its own spirituality...... It was still Xu Ke's own hand holding the gun that was trembling.
Xu Ke took a deep breath, and the crimson light on his body brightened again, and in just a few breaths...... The light on his body seemed to be dazzling to the extreme!
The crimson overshadowed the black again, and then he raised the spear in his hand tremblingly, stabbing it into the air in front of him!
A little red light burst out from the tip of the spear, and quickly turned into a hair-like red thread!
The red thread spread from the tip of the spear, although it seemed to be light and fluttering, without any force...... But it suddenly squeezed the air around it and let out a loud pop!
The red line that pierced the air twisted and deformed in the air, stabbing straight at a demon standing on top of the wall.
The red thread instantly pierced the demon's chest, and the heart in the chest was attached...... It also exploded suddenly!
The next moment, the whole demon "puffed" to the ground...... Then it was blown into countless pieces of minced meat!
Black blood rained down from mid-air!
A little blood fell on the armor of the surrounding soldiers, it seemed to be extremely corrosive, as long as the leather armor was stained with a drop of black blood, white smoke quickly rose, and the entire leather armor was burned open!
But the red thread had no intention of stopping, and after piercing the chest of one demon, it twisted towards another demon, and the red thread easily pierced the chest of this demon!
Immediately after, another demon a few steps away was also pierced by the red thread!
The red line has already penetrated the three demons in an instant! But the red line still did not stop, but continued to reverse its course in the air, and kept stabbing out!
As it continued to shuttle through the air, the red line erupted in bursts of violent explosions that pierced the air during the attack!
Four, five, six......
Fifteen, sixteen...... Eighteen!
The red thread pierced the chests of the eighteen demons before it finally dissipated into the air!
Eighteen huge black and red monsters exploded above the city walls, and the blood of the eighteen demons mixed together and poured down like a torrential rain!
All the soldiers looked at Xu Ke, who had stabbed this shot, with a strange look......
Those monsters that they couldn't even break through with all their might, this guy in front of them......
But he killed eighteen of them with a single shot!
But Xu Ke didn't seem to notice their gaze, the eyes behind the glasses were still extremely solemn at the moment, and he didn't relax in the slightest because of this shot.
Because after these eighteen of them, several more hideous and terrifying heads appeared on the city wall, and the black qi became thicker and thicker, and even the bright crimson light on his body could not completely penetrate it!
"Forty-Seven ......"
As he continued to count, he raised his spear again, but this time ......
His right hand, which held the spear, was visibly trembling, as if he was about to lose his grip on the spear!
There was also a slight tiredness in his eyes.
……
Just south of the city of Belial.
Rolling logs and boulders kept falling from the walls, but a dozen soldiers could push down huge logs or boulders and smash them on the monsters on the walls, but only when they were lucky, they could smash one or two demons off the walls.
The dense demons had dug the city wall to the ground, and they kept coming forward, and there was still Xu Ke on the city wall in the other direction to stop these demons who were going up, but there was no one at the city tower to stop them.
At this moment, Lei Ruoya was already standing outside the city tower and unfurled his holy light shield, and countless white light shields almost protected hundreds of soldiers around him.
The soldiers inside the Holy Light Shield have already set up one cauldron after another, and the flames under the cauldron are burning jubilantly, and the oil in the cauldron is already boiling, and the hot tempting enemies are constantly splashing outward like explosions!
"Throw the pan out!" Lei Ruoya saw that the demons on the city wall seemed to be gathering more and more, and she couldn't help frowning.
Immediately, the soldiers on the city wall threw down the hot oil pots!
The hot fuel poured on almost all the demons on the wall, and the air kept sending back a "stinging" explosion!
The soldiers on the side of the city wall immediately threw down the torches in their hands, and some soldiers with fire-attribute fighting energy even injected fire-attribute fighting energy into their own torches!
On the city wall, a raging fire suddenly ignited!
The flames continued to spread, and they quickly spread to the demons around them!
The bodies of countless demons also began to burn. From afar, the entire city of Beria ...... It's as if they are surrounded by a sea of fire!
But this sea of fire, which was enough to burn the warriors with fighting spirit and protect their bodies to slag, didn't seem to have any effect on the demons, and the demons on the city wall let out one roar after another, and continued to climb upward!
They were bathed in flames, but apparently untouched!
Seeing that these monsters covered in fire were constantly climbing upward, the faces of the soldiers on the city wall all changed, obviously they didn't expect these monsters to be so strong!
The non-commissioned officer in charge of the city's defense trembled even more, and said to Lei Ruoya tremblingly, "Big ...... My lord, those monsters...... Those monsters don't seem to be afraid of fire at all! ”
"I have eyes, I can see." Lei Ruoya glared at him, frowned deeply, and said to herself, "Damn...... You should know that demons are most likely fire immune ......"
The non-commissioned officer obviously didn't understand Lei Ruoya's self-talk in the second half, and couldn't help but whisper anxiously: "My lord, just rely on the manpower of less than a thousand people in our city defense army...... We can't be the match for this group of monsters! My lord...... Let's withdraw! ”
Lei Ruoya's face changed when she heard this, and she was about to scold the other party for a few words, but at this moment, a right claw bathed in intense flames stretched out to the top of the wall, and grabbed the highest city wall!
The other, charred claw, brought up a stream of hot air and swung at the two nearest soldiers!
Lei Ruoya pushed away the non-commissioned officer beside her, and the white light on her body was magnificent!
Sonorous sonorous !!!!
Countless white shields of holy light condensed in front of the two soldiers and the claw, and that claw tore apart one shield after another effortlessly!
It wasn't until it broke through six sides in a row that its indomitable momentum couldn't help but stagnate, and it let out a sharp metal collision sound and crashed into the shield, smashing this holy light shield full of cracks!
"Withdraw!?"
Lei Ruoya's face was a little pale, she looked at the non-commissioned officer beside her and asked with a somewhat hideous expression, "Where to retreat!?" Behind us is the city of Beria, where hundreds of thousands of ordinary residents live! Are you going to want these demons to go into town!? ”
"It's still like this now, leaning against the walls...... If we retreat to the city, do you want our army to fight these demons!? ”
The non-commissioned officer trembled all over, he knew that the words of the adult in front of him were absolutely correct, but after all, he was only a city defense army, not those guys who had been trained in many aspects physically and psychologically in the barracks outside the city.
So he was very afraid, from the bottom of his heart, for fear of ......
The next moment, you will be the food of these monsters!
And more than a dozen demons wrapped in flames had already climbed the wall, and the bright flames and the black qi emitted from their bodies completely overshadowed the crimson light emitted by Xu Ke!
More and more demons rushed up, stood on the walls and began to roar, and their voices became no longer muffled, but completely turned into terrifying roars!
With a wave of her hands, Lei Ruoya raised countless white shields, holding up a white light in the black and red colors, and the monsters also rushed towards the white light above the castle tower!
……
Xu Ke's body erupted with a burst of crimson light again, and with the flick of his spear, the bodies of several demons around him exploded!
But the crimson light only brightened for a moment before it dimmed, and the black gas and fire almost took over the entire city wall!
"Sixty-one ......" Xu Ke was holding his spear, panting heavily, barely able to stand up, and even had no extra strength to hold the glasses on his face.
His combat experience was already extremely inadequate, and he had hardly experienced any serious combat before this time.
If it weren't for the reward of the second act and the combination of "Death Thorn Piercing Spear" was too powerful, this time he was called to save the scene by Lei Ruoya as if he was temporarily driving ducks to the shelves, but he was afraid that he would be handsome and hang up in just three minutes.
But even if you have the skill set of a cheater......
Having killed sixty-one demons, he was extremely tired, and even a simple action like lifting his eyelids was extremely difficult, as if his eyelids weighed a thousand pounds.
But he still stood reluctantly, because he knew that the moment of life and death had really come.
While the damn system keeps saying that the world is just a game, God knows what it means to be dead in a game.
Is dead in the game really dead?
Xu Ke wanted to know the answer, but he never wanted to get it in person.
He barely burned with the crimson power that the system had given him in his body, and his eyes widened as he looked around.
However, the demons had already climbed the wall and had begun to slaughter the soldiers around them, the screams of the soldiers, the useless metal crash of weapons falling on the demons, the roars of the demons.
Four demons have surrounded themselves.
Hereunto...... Is it over?
……
The white light only expanded outwards and was compressed to the extreme in an instant, and the simultaneous attack of more than a dozen demons shattered all the shields almost instantly!
Known for her devout beliefs and the incredible amount of holy light, the holy light in Lei Ruoya's body was also instantly squeezed to the bottom.
Unable to protect the soldiers around her any longer, a demon reached out and grabbed the non-commissioned officer who was close to her.
Under the scorching flames, the non-commissioned officer let out an extremely terrible wail, and he looked at Lei Ruoya and cried out in a pleading voice:
"Help me! My lord...... Help me! ”
Lei Ruoya wanted to spread the shield around him, but in the next moment, the demon had already swallowed the burning non-commissioned officer whole!
The non-commissioned officer screamed loudly and shouted for help to Lei Ruoya, but the demon only opened his mouth and turned him into a delicacy in his belly.
Lei Ruoya felt a little sad inexplicably, but the screams around her suppressed this sadness.
Because within a few dozen meters of her, more than a dozen soldiers turned into demon food at the same time!
The remaining soldiers swarmed up and pounced on a demon, but the demon waved it aside like an ant.
On the contrary, countless soldiers were burned by the fire on the demon's body, and the demon grabbed them and sent them into their mouths in one fell swoop!
Lei Ruoya took a deep breath and quickly spit it out.
She knew she didn't have time to grieve because ......
This is war, a war in which people die at all times.
She still had hole cards in her hand, and she didn't want to reveal them at such an early age.
But if it is not revealed, the city of Beria ...... I'm afraid it's going to break.
"In the opponent's pawns, these guys...... Maybe it's just an ordinary soldier. She smiled a little helplessly.
But at this moment, a rapid and loud trumpet suddenly resounded through the city of Belial!
The sound of the trumpet was like a dull thunderclap, almost drowning out all the sounds of the moment!
And under the sound of the horn, there was suddenly a thunderous sound of trampling footsteps!
The ground of the entire city of Belial seemed to be shaking at this moment, and the sound of footsteps stepping on the ground from inside the city overwhelmed the roars of the demons!
Lei Ruoya was stunned, and then suddenly laughed, and an excited look appeared on her somewhat embarrassed face: "...... Bugle! It's a military horn! ”
"They're coming! Our army is coming! ”
Lei Ruoya's voice was extremely insignificant under the sound of the military horn, and it was drowned out by the huge sound wave in just an instant.
And there was a particularly loud roar from inside the city:
"Long live the Empire! Long live the Empire! Long live the Empire! ”
The sound of bugles and the shouts of the soldiers...... It's like echoing in the sky! (To be continued.) )
