Chapter 0701: The Battlefield in the Dark
This is a very strange war, it is cruel, it is full of blood, screams, roars and the smell of fish that lingers on the tip of the nose forever, it is a street battle, it is a contest between swords and claws, in a sense, except for the different means, it is not much different from mortal wars, they are all fighting for their lives, they are all fighting for the geographical advantages of a street and a building, Su Qi originally thought that the battlefields were similar, but while fighting, he had a different feeling.
This must not be equated with any war in his impression.
Su Qi was half a military fan before the crossing, and he loved all kinds of war films, not only watched the rumbling of artillery in the era of hot weapons, but also saw the hard encounters in the era of cold weapons, there were cavalry battles, foot battles, sneak attacks, and sieges, many of which happened under the moonlit night, at this time the war had a different taste, the dark battlefield, the shadowy enemy, the cold swords and guns reflected the sparse light under the hazy stars and moon, even if it was just a viewer, I occasionally felt the blood boiling, wishing that I could be reborn thousands of years ago, wearing white robes and armor, holding spears and swords, and straddle red-maned horses with my feet, all the enemies surrendered.
Some people say that men's blood only shines in two places, one is in front of the woman, and the other is on the field, Su Qi doesn't think he is right, but it is undeniable that when he is on the battlefield, the cowardly will tremble, but the heroic person will be inspired by the sound of the knife and gun.
Su Qi probably belonged to the kind of person who was easily infected, when the black beast crossed the corpse mountain like a tide, and the disciple of the Immortal Hall let out a terrible shout, he did immediately pull out his sword, and the sword intent on his body was like the wind sweeping the grass, and it became more and more blazing.
But when it really started, Su Qi found that this battle was different from any movie he had ever seen, and it was far from his own imagination, the black beasts were not humans, their thinking was completely different, and they came with darkness, if they still held stereotypes and acted only on blood, he would definitely die here.
Half of the north city wall has collapsed, and the black beasts from the south have broken into the city unscrupulously, and the Immortal Life Hall next to the north city wall has suddenly suffered a huge pressure, and the disciples not only have to stay away from the main street, but also continue to retreat to the south, fortunately, the Immortal Palace has already deduced the situation that the north city wall was broken, and buried a full two thousand shocks under the north city wall in advance, and they are all fire, The second system of thunder, known for its powerful lethality, after the black beasts poured in, the disciples in charge of control held the rune paper for control, although they looked uneasy, but they still did not hesitate to ignite the rune paper.
The moment the aura scurried up on the rune paper, a huge aura gathered in the north city, and after the rune paper was urged, a wisp of spiritual fire was ignited, and a storm suddenly set off within three zhang of the root of the wall, the stone slab broke inch by inch, and exploded into pieces all over the sky in an instant, just a breath later, the fire intertwined with thunder and thunder gushed out from under the stone slab, the fire and thunder illuminated the place, and also illuminated the appearance of the black beasts, they were running, and before they had time to panic and hesitate, only a few powerful black beasts noticed the unusual power, but in the blink of an eye, they were swept in, or they were swallowed by the flames and turned into nothing, or they were smashed by the thunder and the whole body was scorched black。
The embers began to shake violently, not only the black beast was destroyed, but even the entire two rows of houses near the northern city were also lifted away, and the dust instantly covered the sky, and when the earthquake weakened, the fire and thunder gradually extinguished, only scattered fire spots and black dust were left in front of the north city wall.
None of the invading black beasts left their corpses behind, and the air was filled with the smell of fire and brimstone.
Both sides were silent for a while, and the army of black beasts soon stepped into Ember City again.
The battle heated up in an instant.
Su Qi and Dongfang Jiyue also had to join the battlefield.
After the collapse of the northern city wall, the entire ember city has been completely shrouded in darkness, the few lights under the invasion of darkness, can not illuminate the surroundings at all, every alley is very secluded, and the difference between them and the five fingers that can not be seen is that they can still see a cloud of pale black shadows.
These shadows may be black beasts, or they may be monks, and they can be distinguished by their tallness, shortness, fat and thinness when they are close, but at a distance, they are completely chaotic, and they can't tell what they are.
At this time, if you want to live, you must first maintain a high degree of attention, the divine consciousness can not be released too far, otherwise it will attract a large number of black beasts, if you encounter the kind of black beasts that specialize in divine consciousness, you will die and can not die again, but you can't probe too close, so that you will not be able to distinguish whether the shadows in the distance are monks or black beasts, the speed of both sides is very fast, the judgment is just a matter of time, the slightest mistake is the difference between life and death.
But controlling the divine consciousness is also a very energy-intensive and spiritual thing, not to mention that there are more than ten times the black beast here.
Therefore, most of the disciples act in teams, and the number of people in this team is also very particular, too many of them will inevitably seem redundant, and the scale is large, and the number of black beasts attracted will be more, but it will put the team in danger, and if the number is too small, it will not be able to take care of each other at all.
Of course, the Hall of Eternal Life is very experienced, they have fought with black beasts, and they have also had wars with other sects, and they are very skilled in dividing the disciples into groups of five, this number is just right, three people are fighting in front, one person can take a short rest, and the other person can use rune paper magic weapons to support, or they can take out the pill to heal their companions, and the five people are constantly rotated, and they can maintain their combat effectiveness for a long time.
Casual cultivators don't have this quality.
Some of the squads are as many as thirty or forty people, and some are only two or three, and the small number of people is also small, and they only dare to mix in the team of the Eternal Life Palace, and follow the large army, but their ability to act at the opportunity is good, and the results achieved for a time are not less than the disciples of the Eternal Life Palace, and the large number of people are not afraid of the momentum of the sky and the earth, they either occupy high-rise buildings, or guard the streets, relying on the number of people and magic weapons, and attack the surging black beasts.
But because the movement was too big, these people were quickly targeted by the army of black beasts.
After paying a lot of price, these large teams retreated in embarrassment, some of the casualties were very large, most of the members died, and some of the casualties were small, but they no longer dared to act so arrogantly, learning from the appearance of the disciples of the Hall of Eternal Life, they were divided into small teams, and played guerrillas.
This also makes this war even more bloody and cruel.
