Chapter 357: Combination
As the landing demons and dinosaurs were eliminated one by one, the chaos gradually came under control.
Agatha circled along the artillery position, and everywhere she could see the corpses of the behemoths in tatters—it must be said that the Witch of Divine Punishment was unsurpassed in combat efficiency in hand-to-hand combat, especially when equipped with His Majesty's new firearms. Without their support, relying solely on the Witch Alliance to deal with these thirty or so dinosaurs would have been in a hurry, not to mention guarding against the attack of the mad demons.
It's just that they seem to prefer the old way of revenge to the old way of smashing their enemies with large-caliber shotguns. Agatha had seen more than one ancient witch soothe her opponent lose the ability to resist, then put away her firearms and replaced them with knives, swords, or even fists for the final blow, as if bathing in the flesh and blood of the devil would give them solace.
It seems that the long wait of four hundred years has indeed changed many things.
The devil probably couldn't understand why a group of male humans were able to defeat them one after another, and outperform them in both strength and speed. The unknown undoubtedly brings fear, so by the time the last two madmen came up with the other hand, they almost gave up their resistance, and were eventually controlled by the invasive Zephyr, and they also shot down one of their kind with a spear that tried to break the siege.
Now that the substitute artillery has entered the position, and the four guns that had been overturned by the dreadbeasts in the melee have been re-erected, it is expected that they will soon be able to join the ranks of the enemy again. And the fortress gun, which was the fastest to recover and was always firing, became an inspirational clarion call with every shot.
"How many enemies are left?" After the group converged, Agatha asked Zoe.
"Sixteen, if they don't have new reinforcements." Zoe glanced at the sky, "The flying dinosaurs have lost nearly seventy percent, no matter what their purpose is, they have already failed to hit this one." If you don't retreat now, you must be preparing for a final attack. ”
"The final attack?" Agatha couldn't help but frown.
In order to avoid the machine-gun fire, the remaining devils all invariably increased in height, even beyond the range of the spear, and the risk of getting close to the artillery position again will undoubtedly increase significantly. More importantly, at this time, everyone is fully prepared, even if they eat a wave of spears, they can control the losses to a minimum. Since defeat is a foregone conclusion, how to look at retreat is the most reasonable choice.
"You used to be a member of the Secret Society, and you rarely participated directly in wars, so you may not know much about their habits," Zoe explained calmly, "Adult dinosaurs that can fly freely are more precious individuals even to the devil, and if you can dispatch so many at once, there must be a superior commander among these mad demons." For such demons, mission always comes first, and most of them would rather die in battle than retreat if they fail to achieve their goal. ”
"In that case, why didn't it rush down in the first place?" He Feng on the side couldn't help but ask.
"Because it didn't find a suitable opponent," Zoe smiled weirdly, "If there was a transcendent witch between us, it would have come down long ago." ”
"Why?"
"Perhaps it's their nature," she said, turning her gaze back into the air, "Murderous, aggressive, savage, and brutal, even if they become more and more human, they can't change that...... If it weren't for this trait, Lord Nataya and Queen Starfall would not have been able to find a chance to fight against high-level demon slayers in the devil's army, and eventually break through to the transcendental. ”
That is, the enemy did not join the attack at the first time because he underestimated the enemy, and then refused to withdraw because of responsibility? Let's not talk about whether this inference is correct, it is impossible to say that the promotion experience of two out of three seats is so straightforward.
Agatha couldn't help but say, "In the era of the Federation, what the hell are you ......?"
"Didn't Master Pasha tell you?" Zoe smiled, "I used to be one of Lord Nataya's shadow guards, and I was also the 'Red Lotus' in the Holy Blessing Army. ”
The Ice Witch found herself having heard the name - if she was Tachira's youngest promoted witch and recognized as a gifted researcher, Red Lotus was a rising star in the world of combat, a power-type transcendent, and a brilliant warrior who was considered the most likely successor to Nataya.
It's a pity that the federation didn't hold out until the moment when the other side broke through.
If memory serves, Red Lotus should be about the same age as herself.
But now, there is no trace of the past in Zoe.
It was as if she had been shaped by time to become another person.
"They're coming," Zoe's words interrupted Agatha's thoughts, "protect those fragile mortals, and hand over the enemy to us." ”
As if to confirm her claim, Sylvie's exclamation was heard from the sigils: "Oh my God, what is that!" Aigartha, be careful! There are many mana sources in the enemy! ”
Theoretically, a witch can only have one magic cyclone, but the devil casts his abilities by embedding a magic stone, so he can have multiple cyclones. For this type of enemy, the Federation is collectively referred to as the high-level devils, and their strength may be different, but without exception they are extremely difficult opponents.
"Are you okay?" Zephyr worried.
"Ah, rest assured," Zoe said slowly, "The path chosen by the Starfall Queen may have been a mistake, but one thing is true—the Witch of Divine Punishment has been prepared to deal with high-ranking demons since she was born. ”
As he spoke, a black shadow burst out of the clouds and rushed straight towards the artillery position!
The other hovering madmen responded by sending their mounts down - although the overhead drop greatly limited the angle of fire from the machine guns in the position, the anti-aircraft squad arranged in the outer circle was able to rain bullets into the enemy's path as they could, and even though the devil used a serpentine dodge, several were shot down in the process.
This time, the enemy's spear throwing target was replaced by an anti-aircraft machine gun next to the fortress gun.
There is no doubt that everything they did was just to get the dark shadow to the core.
As Agatha assists the soldier in defending against the bone spear, she is surprised to discover that the meteorite-like falling object is actually a huge and friendless dinosaur, even larger than Maisie, and covered in black armor on its wings and belly, like dull crystals. Not only that, but its head and horns are also sharper, and at first glance, it looks a bit like the legendary "dragon".
The moment it hit the ground, the whole ground trembled, and the dust was blown up by the wind, making it difficult to open your eyes for a while.
Then the dinosaur opened its bloody mouth and let out a series of rumination sounds—
I saw a tall black-armored devil emerge from the throat of the wet dinosaur and stand in front of everyone. Search for "CM" or enter the URL:.
