Chapter 41: The Great Defeat (9)
Ishinuma didn't bother with the deserters.
As a team of routed soldiers, what unites all soldiers is not strict discipline, but pervasive crises.
Therefore, for the members of this team, even if they are his original direct subordinates, Ishinuma has always held an attitude of coming and going freely.
It is extremely normal to have a few more or fewer soldiers at any one time.
Most of the defeated soldiers were willing to follow Ishinuma to this point, just because they had been safe and alive under Iinuma's leadership, which made them quite confident in Iinuma's judgment.
The rout brigade drove directly to the logistical settlement, and when it got close, it divided its troops and rushed into the city from all directions.
The whole process was extremely smooth and did not encounter any resistance.
The demons who possessed the construction machinery didn't know what was going on - and even if they did, they didn't have the courage to resist in the face of a large group of heavily armed hellish native spirits, and even if they were fat, they wouldn't have the interest in fighting to enslave their own humans, would they?
Four new employees of the company responsible for organizing the construction of the settlement also discovered the invading army of Hell natives, and one of them was stunned when he saw the surging Hell Spirits on the way forward led by Ishinuma, but as a new employee, being able to be sent by the company to work on the front line of the westward expansion was in itself an affirmation of his ability and loyalty. As it turned out, the company's top brass was not wrong. This employee, who was only an apprentice mage, launched the first resistance in the course of Ishinuma's attack. As a wild mage from the Northeast, the only thing he can do is to jump the gods. So he once again jumped to exorcise evil spirits in the face of the flood of native spirits, and ordered the evil spirits on both sides of the construction site to attack at the same time, and he did not forget to send a warning message to the other three partners in the rear.
Suddenly, seeing a human in front of them trying to cast a spell to stop them, the originally imposing team immediately fell into an inextricable panic.
Whether it is a legend for thousands of years, or a war that has just been waged recently, it has imprinted the image of human beings as ferocious and boundless in the soul of every Hell native.
Like an animal that saw a predator, every native soldier felt an uncontrollable fear deep in his soul, so much so that the soldier who rushed to the front immediately stopped at the sight of the dancing human, and some of them fell to the ground with weak legs.
The soldiers in the back didn't know what was going on, and they crashed into the soldiers in the front row, falling down one by one, and the smooth attack and advance of the whole team came to a halt.
This is an extremely dangerous time.
If it continues to develop, the entire attacking team will likely be frightened and collapsed by such a human, and other teams are likely to face this situation as well.
At the critical moment, Ishinuma, or Ishinuma, mustered all his courage and did the only thing that an officer who led the charge could do, and threw the stone spear in his hand with all his might. He didn't know what his throw would do, but it wasn't Ishinuma's style to do nothing and just accept his fate.
The stone spear carried Ishinuma's last struggles through a perfect parabolic arc, finally piercing the human mage apprentice's chest and pinning him firmly to the ground.
The young mage apprentice's face was full of astonishment, and he couldn't believe it, and he trembled and held the stone spear in his hand as if he wanted to pull it out, but he stopped breathing with just such a simple movement.
Ishinuma's stone spear was extremely large and extremely powerful, piercing and shattering all of the apprentice's internal organs with all its remaining strength.
The whole street fell into a brief lull.
All the indigenous soldiers couldn't believe their eyes when they saw this.
Even if Ishinuma succeeds in one blow, it is difficult to send a letter. He trembled closer, grabbed the spear and pulled it out, blood gushing out of his apprentice's wound like a spring, and the corpse trembled slightly, neither jumping nor turning into any other monster.
How could it be so easy to die?
Is this still the legendary human who has no mana and is brutal?
Nima's, the legend is really a lie!
Iinuma looked back at his subordinates in a daze, met with a look of suspicion, excitement, and consternation.
He slowly raised the stone spear in his hand, still carrying human blood!
The whole team erupted in earth-shattering cheers.
See!
Nor are human mages invincible!
They are equally fragile and die with one blow!
The soldiers were shouting desperately in an almost frenzied manner, as if they wanted to release all the fear that had been building up in their hearts along the way. They rushed up and lifted the stone into the air.
As a stone spirit, the weight of Ishinuma is not light.
However, the excited native soldiers lifted him up and even threw him high.
Of course, the result of this action was that the falling stone swamp crushed a group of soldiers.
"Warriors, rush!"
Iinuma raised his arms and shouted, and the whole team threw aside their original fear and hesitation, and rushed forward along the street with a shout.
The demons on both sides of the site remained unmoved, and the native soldiers paid no attention to them.
When the three employees in the rear received the news, they were all shocked, and they all made what they thought was the right choice, contacting the westward command center to send back the news of the sudden enemy attack on the logistics base.
However, the westward command center maintained an eerie silence, all calls were not answered, and all network information was not returned.
They didn't know that at this time, the westward command center was empty, and Ye Gao, as the commander-in-chief, was on the way to abscond.
After a brief communication between the three employees, one took on the duty of returning to the command center to inform, while the other two wanted to organize the evil spirits in charge of construction in the settlement to motivate the qì puppets to fight back.
Unfortunately, these two loyal employees were able to make their plans come true. The demons around them had already learned about what was happening ahead through the unique soul fluctuation transmission method between them at the same time they received the news, so when the two employees gave the order, the demons did not follow it.
As mage apprentices, these two employees have no real control over these demons, and the reason why the demons were able to obey orders before was only by relying on the power of the company - mainly the white terror brought about by the merciless massacre of the first* Zhongyong Bowen - and the power of the battle mages.
This is actually a major hidden danger in the company's development.
From this point of view, the hundreds of thousands of westward puppet troops are actually an unstable bag of explosives at the same time, which can not only bomb the enemy to slag, but also possibly blow up all the human beings in the entire westward advance force into slag at the right time.
Now these two employees are the first to face this problem.
Of course, they unceremoniously punished these demons - mainly using the company's soul whip to whip the disobedient demons - if it was normal, the demons could not stand this kind of suffering, and they would not last long, and they would be obedient again, but now there is no time.
Before the two employees could draw a few strokes, Iinuma's troops rushed down.
Encouraged by Iinuma's actions, these indigenous spirits finally dared to fight hard in the face of humans, they naturally did not have the courage of Ishinuma to fight alone, but when they saw the humans at the same time, they shouted and threw out the weapons in their hands, so the poor human mage apprentice didn't even have a chance to react, and was smashed into a pulp by piles of weapons.
I am the dividing line that appears for the first time in the Year of the Dragon***********************
Happy New Year, ladies and gentlemen.
Thank you for the support of the cow talker.
