285 Ghouls appear
As if to verify the doubts in Duke's heart, at this time, the ice demon array in the distance fluctuated, and then saw the ice demon spread out in both directions, and began to give way in the middle.
At this time, a tall figure slowly appeared from the passage, different from ordinary ice demons, this ice demon rode on a war horse. It's just that this batch of war horses is different from human war horses in the general sense, and it also has the kind of dry gray muscles on its body, which is exactly the same as the skin color of the ice demon.
Even if he was sitting on horseback, Duke could feel that this ice demon was tall, at least more than two meters tall, which was almost on par with the previous sea clan shark warriors, and if it was counted as a human, it could almost be said to be a giant among humans.
When this ice demon appeared, Fei Duo, who was standing next to Duke, muttered a sentence in his mouth: "Could it be that the ice demon general has appeared?"
"General Ice Demon, what is this?"
Duke heard the term from Fedor's lips and asked him suspiciously.
"Returning to the lord, the Ice Demon General can also be said to be the leader of the Ice Demon, but the Ice Demon can be called a soldier for all the people, so this kind of Ice Demon is called the Ice Demon General. Legend has it that the Ice Demon General is a very rare creature, each with the strength of a great swordsman. ”
"And more importantly, once the Ice Demon General appears among the Ice Demons, then their attack will be as well-founded as the human army, and a qualitative change will occur. In the hundreds of years since the establishment of the entire Storm Castle, there has only been one Ice Demon General, which is too rare. ”
"What happened to the Ice Demon General that time?"
Duke hurriedly asked, knowing that the Great Sword Master is almost a qualitative title, just like the difference between a high-level mage and an archmage. Of course, the Great Sword Master definitely does not have the strength and rarity of the Great Magister, but with the current strength of Storm Castle, when Gandalf's magic power is exhausted, there is really no one who is the opponent of the Great Sword Master.
Another point is just like what Fei Duo said, once there are ice demon generals, these ice demons are equivalent to having a commander! You must know that on the battlefield, the army with command and the army fighting separately is simply a world apart, basically once the army loses the command system, it will become a plate of scattered sand, and it is only a matter of time before it is eliminated.
But now the situation is completely different, and the next thousands of ice demons will not be independent and strong individuals, but will form a whole, and the pressure on Storm Castle will be even greater.
In the face of Duke's inquiry, Feido's face showed a look of embarrassment, but as a soldier's uprightness, he finally replied: "That time was the moment when the Storm Castle was breached, and in the end, it was the Holy See Knights who rushed over to stop the Ice Demon's attack intention, and finally drove them into the Valley of Monsters. ”
And the original Ice Demon General was also killed by the cardinal of the Holy See, and the Ice Demon in the Monster Valley also fell into a period of recuperation. Each attack was accompanied by a tentative attack, just to prevent the Holy See army from participating in the defense of the city. ”
"No wonder the Ice Demon will attack so aggressively this time, it turns out that they have finally given birth to a new generation of Ice Demon Generals, so that they have a leader. ”
After listening to Fei Duo's explanation, Duke really didn't notice that Storm Castle had such a history, and when he checked the Storm Castle City Lord's Chronicle, it didn't record this.
"It seems that this time the Ice Demon has come out of the nest, and it is determined to win Storm Castle. ”
When Duke said this, there was even a wry smile on the corner of his mouth. However, he didn't believe that such a coincidental thing had happened, maybe the appearance of this Ice Demon General also had something to do with the gates of hell.
"If there are too many lice, he is not afraid of biting, no matter what Ice Demon General he is, as long as he dares to have any thoughts about Storm Castle, I promise to make him understand how to write the word regret!"
In the face of the current situation that can't be worse, Duke's single-minded temperament has also burst out. At the beginning, he solved the crisis of Storm Castle empty-handed, and now he has a little capital, but he is afraid of this and that, after all, barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes.
But now that I've come to this point, I'm afraid it won't be of much use, it's a big deal that Storm Castle is captured, and I will come to this world for nothing. Although the ice demon is a magical creature, they all have a head on their arms, who is afraid of whom?
So at this time, he put down the binoculars in his hand and raised his head high to look directly at the Ice Demon General in the distance. Perhaps there was really a sense between leaders, and the Ice Demon General also raised his head and looked at Duke on the top of the fortress.
In the darkness, in the Ice Demon General's eye sockets, the pair of eyes that emitted blue light were particularly obvious. This kind of blind eyes made Duke feel very unhappy, if it weren't for the lack of high-tech things like sniper rifles, Duke would really want to let someone extinguish this pair of light bulbs!
However, the thousand ice demons on the periphery of the storm castle were just the beginning, and with the appearance of the ice demon general, ice demons began to emerge from the direction of the monster valley. Just like the previous statistics of the goat sentry rider, Duke visually checked that at least more than 3,000 ice demons had appeared. If you count the darkness and don't know it clearly, maybe the final number of ice demons should be around five thousand.
Five thousand ice demons! If this amount were changed to any small lord on the continent, the first reaction would not be to defend the city, but to quickly pack up the burden and run away. Not to mention the difference in the strength of the individual soldiers between the two sides, there are now more than 6,000 people in Storm Fort, counting the new recruits, and there are still thousands of tired soldiers who have just experienced a big war.
But the Ice Demon Array in front of him changed again, and I saw that the Ice Demon Array, which was originally facing the Storm Castle, began to move a little to the side, and a group of strange creatures that were half-crawling and half-crouching began to appear next door to the Ice Demon Array.
Their dark ass with a dark gray skin, their terrifying fangs around their lips, and their sharp claws all indicate their ferocity and horror, and there is no doubt that this is the creature of hell that they have detected before, the ghouls of hell!
With the appearance of the ghouls of Hell, a gasp began to be heard above the city walls. After all, for a hundred years, Stormcastle has been threatened by the Ice Demon every year, and they are not unfamiliar with the image of the Ice Demon.
But the Hell Ghoul, this is the first terrifying creature of Stormkeep, and most of the Stormtroopers have never seen it, let alone heard of it. Suddenly seeing the appearance of this terrifying creature, it is normal to have a trace of fluctuation in my heart.
After all, the greatest fear of human beings is the unknown!
