Chapter 8: The Battle of the Pass

The connection between the Blood Wasteland and the Icy Plains naturally cannot be only one person, the terrain here is very similar to Tongguan, a canyon about ten zhang wide in the middle of the two mountains, and the mountain walls on both sides are extremely steep, and it is impossible to climb at all.

The mountain wall was heavily artificial, apparently deliberately made like that by humans, just to prevent monsters from climbing over the mountains and invading the Blood Wasteland, the last habitat of humanity in the West.

Since a thousand years ago, humans have built a line of defense against demons here, and at that time this land did not have a name, and the original sin war that defeated the Three Demon Kings took place here a thousand years ago.

It was a brutal battle, where all the heroes of humanity who could afford to take on weapons fought to the death against demons, where countless lives were buried, and the blood stained the entire land red, so the wasteland has been named the Wasteland of Blood since that battle.

After thousands of years, generation after generation of continuous construction, and constantly carved the mountain wall surrounding the bloody wasteland, it was difficult for birds to cross, and finally formed this pass comparable to Tongguan, firmly blocking the demons.

If Tongguan is a naturally formed pass, then the pass of the bloody wasteland is created with the power of generations, and if it is left in modern society, it will definitely become one of the wonders of the world and an intangible cultural heritage.

At the pass was built a fortress, which could also be said to be a fortress, due to the lack of stone resources in the Blood Wasteland, this fortress was built of wood, but it was built very well, and it was more than enough to keep out those low-level demons.

However, it was clear to everyone that those low-level demons were only the vanguard of the demon army, and when Andariel had completely regained its magical powers, the seal laid by the many nuns of the "Blind Eye" nuns in the monastery at the cost of their lives would not be able to stop it for long.

If nothing happens, the end of Camp Rog will soon come, and the heroes of humanity have been lost in generations of battles with demons, and the last seven heroes have been killed in the battle against demons a hundred years ago, which has also caused many inheritances to be lost.

The only remaining paladin from the previous generation, his body was occupied by Diablo and became a Dark Wanderer.

Not long before Yang Yifei descended on this world, the Dark Wanderers retaliated against Tristram, the largest town in the West, and the town was reduced to ruins by the angry Diablo, killing most of the humans and turning a small part into demons.

The great city of Tristram successfully sealed the home of Diablo's heroes a hundred years ago, and has become a paradise for demons and the undead.

The world needs a new hero, a hero who can defeat demons and save the world, and without such a hero, the world will be completely occupied by demons and reduced to hell.

It was during such a period of time that Yang Yifei descended on this world.

……

A battle is taking place in the Blood Wasteland Fortress at this moment, and a huge army of Fallen Demons, Dark Hunters, Dark Spearwomen, as well as zombies and giant beasts, are surging down the canyon.

The walls above the fortress were four or five meters wide, and there were steps on the walls of the hills on both sides, leading to the platform above that could be used as a position, and there were more than two hundred people gathered on the fortress, and from their equipment, it was all archers, and the most surprising thing was that all of them were women.

Of course, it was only the archers who were women, and it was not that the fortress was devoid of men, but that the men were all gathered inside the gates under the fortress.

They either held a single-knife shield, or a long-handled machete, or a spear, in addition to maces, one-handed axes, two-handed swords, two-handed axes, and other weapons, all kinds of things, and even some only held a wooden stick in their hands.

There were five or six hundred men in total, and they were obviously melee troops, uh...... Perhaps they could not be called troops, for they were neither effectively organized nor arrayed, but they stood in a mess, waiting for the time to strike.

When the demon army is about to approach the fortress, they must strike to push the demon back.

This fortress has a total of three city passes, separated from each other by about ten meters, the first city pass is the shortest, only about five meters, the second city pass is more than eight meters, the third city pass is almost as high as the city wall of Chang'an City, nearly 12 meters.

Therefore, the archers on the three gates have a very wide field of vision and can attack the demon army outside the fortress.

"Flavi, you take two teams to the platform on the left, your target is the giant beasts, and you must not let them get close to the city."

"Yes, sisters, come with me."

"Fiona, you take the two teams to the right platform and destroy the Fallen Mages for me."

"Understood."

"The others, shoot the Sinking Demon in front with all your might, damn it, they're almost within 50 meters."

At this moment, a tall woman in a red turban, with an unusually fiery figure and a beautiful appearance, who looked to be in her early thirties, held a longbow and gave orders in her slightly gruff voice on the fortress.

She wore a one-piece swimsuit-shaped fish-scale armor, a pair of knee-length leather boots on her feet, revealing a wheat-colored round thigh and half a hip flap, and a large red cape behind her.

This woman has a fierce aura all over her body, and it can be seen that her personality is very irritable, and she is shouting and shooting arrows at the monster group.

It's just that what is more amazing is that what she took was obviously just an arrow, but after the arrow left the string, it instantly turned into a piece, and the arrow she shot would extend ten arrows out of thin air on the left and right.

In other words, every time she shoots an arrow, it is actually equivalent to shooting 21 arrows, and she alone creates a rain of arrows.

The demon army was always held back from 50 meters away, and could only advance slowly, and with each step, a large number of corpses were dropped, and this woman played a vital role.

It's just that she can't use this skill for a long time, and she has to stop and rest for a while after shooting about twenty arrows at a time.

The two bosses she called, Flavi and Fiona, can also shoot multiple arrows in one arrow, but Flavi can only turn one arrow into 12 arrows, and Fiona only has 10 arrows.

There are also a small number of people who can more or less turn one arrow into several arrows, but the least is one arrow into 5 arrows, and there is no less because it is not cost-effective.

Some people shoot arrows with flames, others shoot arrows with a blue-white cold, and some people don't use arrows at all, just pull the bowstring with their bare hands, and a slightly illusory-looking arrow comes out of thin air from their fingertips.

But the arrow looks illusory, but the power is not low at all, and the goods like the Sinking Demon are basically solved with one arrow.

It's just that there are not many of these people with special archery skills, among more than two hundred, there are only a dozen, and they are all accompanied by a group of female archers who honestly open their bows and arrows, and it seems that they are all leader-level figures.
